Chapter 434: Fathers and Elders Remember the Peace Affair (2)

"His Royal Highness the Prince, your army has defeated all the Tubo army, hasn't Qinghai been subdued?" Nuo Hao said with a blank eye. He waited a long time for this day.

"You sit down first and listen to me." Li Wei asked him to sit in a chair, and then said, "Great Khan, are you really subdued?" Then let me ask you, on Zanpo luckily fled to Tuyuhun City with more than 10,000 troops, and under the pursuit of General Heizhi, more than 8,000 people entered Tuyuhun City safely. In addition, your Mo He has summoned nearly 10,000 Tuyuhun warriors to defend the royal capital. You know how difficult Tuyuhun City is to conquer. ”

"But Your Highness, your subordinates include party soldiers, and there are more than 100,000 soldiers."

"Yes, if you want to force it, you can definitely conquer it. In fact, if it weren't for some mistakes this time, it is possible that Zanpo would not have been able to escape. But that's it, I'm not ready to take Qinghai yet. ”

"Why?"

"The time has not come, I don't believe it, you can take a look at it at the end of July. From Haibei to Fuluochuan to Dafeichuan to Wuhai Baihai, you have at least 300,000 people in Tuguhun, right? ”

No one can say how many people there are. This was caused by semi-slavery. A family with one master, with many slaves, today it is eighteen slaves, and tomorrow if something happens, it may become twenty-eight slaves, or eight slaves. There is no way to count. This situation also existed in the Tang Dynasty, but it was rare, and it was also changed to a good saying, a trilogy. The population of the household department is only in the early 30 million? Is it true that there were only 30 million people in the Tang Dynasty? There must be more than that, at least around 40 million. Some of the confined areas cannot be counted, and some are this part.

Replaced with Tuyuhun, the population error is even greater. However, about Nuo Haobo still knew that this area was the most concentrated place in Tuyuhun, and although the war had been fought until now, more than 300,000 people were still a conservative number. "Yes." ”

"Now that you are summoning and offering to provide them with food and clothing, Qinghai has become a ruin. It stands to reason that all these people will defect to you, right? ”

"This ......"

"It won't be, will it? It is precisely in this way that the Tibetans have been governed for a long time, and before they invaded, many of you in Tuyuhun were willing to fall and would rather be exploited by the Tibetans than accept the fetters of the Tang Dynasty. So now, many nobles and their people are still unwilling to submit to the Great Khan and accept the Great Khan's kindness. Seeing the arrival of the Tang army, they preferred to abandon their baggage, flee to the mountains, and continue to resist stubbornly. ”

This situation is present in Tuguhun at the moment, and it is also present in Bailanqiang. There are many mountains, and the mountain road is guarded, of course, it can be conquered, and it is not Mount Everest. But the sacrifice will be heavy and not worth it. Therefore, the generals such as the Black Tooth Chang ignored these people. Originally, it was mainly based on materials, so what does it matter how many people the Nuo Hao bowl took away. But these people have to eat, they have to survive, and they have to return to the grassland, so that they can be captured when the time comes.

It turns out that Bailanqiang is even more so, as soon as the Tang army came, there were mountains on both sides, and the mountain was dangerous to take advantage of, easy to defend and difficult to attack. And the terrain is higher, this high sea dial is the biggest shortcoming of the Tang Army. But the imperial court, regardless of the repeated efforts of these tribes, wants to talk about benevolence, and it is not good to be like Li Wei to directly destroy the materials. Therefore, Su Dingfang has been in business for several years, and once broke the Tubo army, but it was useless to Bai Lanqiang. Replaced by the Tubo people, you're welcome, there is nothing left of benevolence, and under several attacks, the Bailanqiang part of the department moved to the south of Fuluochuan, that is, the Qaidam Basin in later generations. There is also a dog leg that has become a loyal dog leg of the Tibetan people.

This borrowing the mountain to defend it, and this high sea dialing, is also what Li Wei will face.

It's just that there is an advantage, after the attack of Tubo and the transfer of some people, Bailanqiang is not as good as before, and it is not impossible to figure out.

"In this way, only after the end of July, 250,000 people have defected to you, and I will help you recover Qinghai immediately."

"This ......"

"It's impossible, isn't it? But if the Tang Dynasty immediately helps you recover the restored Tuyuhun, will the Tubo people be willing to rest? Tubo itself, as well as the subject countries such as Dongnuqiang and Zhangxiong, have at least nearly five or six million people. In this battle, our Tang army suffered heavy losses, although it seemed to be a brilliant result, but the main ones killed were your Tuyuhun rebels and the Qiang army. How many troops did the Tibetan properness lose, tell, less than 50,000 people! As long as they recover, they can immediately form an army of more than 200,000. At that time, the battlefields of the battle will all be on the high ground. Han Wai Mountain, that's a good name. Lone has also been there, although he didn't cry, but it was very uncomfortable. Is it advantageous for our army to fight on these heights? What's more, will the people left behind by you Tuyuhun stick a knife in the back? Or how about the Great Khan, who has the ability to immediately hand over the subordinates of Lingzhou and the surrendered tribes to you, so that you can recover your homeland by yourself? ”

"This ......"

"I know what the Great Khan is trying to say? You are very loyal to our Tang Dynasty, and I am very grateful, so I have always been very accommodating to you. ”

Noho bowed his head in shame.

"Not only now, but in the future, your eldest son Murong Zhong will also be our best friend in the Tang Dynasty. But Great Khan, think about it, in the first battle of Dafeichuan, our Tang Dynasty's 50,000 troops and 50,000 soldiers were wiped out. So far, more than 80,000 soldiers have been sacrificed in this battle. In July, the various ministries continued to expand their gains in Tuyuhun, firstly, by not giving the rebels and the pseudo-khans a chance to breathe, and secondly, by further pressing, so that more people would join you. But this has to be sacrificed...... The sacrifices are heavy, and the military and financial resources of our Tang Dynasty are also limited. If I want to help you restore the country immediately, I have calculated that it will take at least 250,000 to 300,000 troops to garrison everywhere. Even if there is merit, what about this logistics? Or can you Tuyuhun people afford it? ”

"Is Qinghai the only way to do this?" Nuo Haobo said blankly.

"Who said that?" Li Wei glanced at him, and thought in his heart, whether this is the case or not, it is impossible for you to restore the glory of the Tuyuhun people in the past. He couldn't say, and continued: "If that's the case, why should Lone build a city here? Qinghai can be lost, as well as the Hexi Corridor, the danger of Qilian Mountain. However, the Tibetans could not be lost, their army came here, it was a ruin, in order to get enough supplies, they could only cross the Yellow River and go to Jiuqu or Hehuang to fight a decisive battle with our army. At this time, the terrain is not very high, and it is the business scope of our army, and the time, place, and people are not at a disadvantage. Tubo had no choice but to retreat. As soon as he retreated, he continued to 'deal with' the rebels for the Great Khan. A few years later, the Qinghai rebels disappeared, and the Great Khan led his men back, and with the help of our army, Tuyuhun could be recovered again. ”

Half-truths. It is also necessary to comfort this Great Khan, the people cannot be killed, there will be opposition voices in the country's public opinion, all of them will be taken away, arousing the people's will to die, and let Nuo Haobo take away some of the people, with this banner in the way, no matter what you do, you are a righteous teacher, and the teacher is famous.

The Nuo Hao bowl made Li Wei speechless. The idea of restoring the country is very beautiful, but what people say is also reasonable, it is impossible to ignore their own country because they support Tuyuhun to restore the country. glanced at Princess Honghua, and had to leave unhappily.

I also had to go out of the city to welcome the people, for fear that the Tang army would treat each other roughly, and the wheat in the wheat fields outside the city began to be a little yellow, which looked very pleasant. But Nuo Haobo thought of one more thing, Hehuang didn't say anything, and came back by himself in about a few years, and Jiuqu didn't want to think about it. The party members had dealings with the Tang Dynasty, and they did not want to surrender to themselves.

Thinking of this, my heart is very gloomy. In fact, it is not only the land of Jiuqu Party, Haibei is the best area for producing Qinghai Xuan, there are Qilian Mountains to obstruct it, the weather is not so cold, although it is not as vast as the Dafeichuan plain, there are many small river valleys, suitable for planting crops, this Li Wei did not want to give up, there are also some areas of Dafeichuan and Wuhai, which are also suitable for planting crops. When the time comes, they all have to emigrate.

It's still early, and I'm afraid he will also ascend the throne as the emperor at that time, and his words count!

Immigration would be viable.

Why do you have to let the Tuyuhun people take possession, over and over again?

Nuo Haobo is gone, and the party members are coming again, dozens of old men, and there is no unified leader, which is like this. A large group of people came, but this Li Wei liked. It's terrible to have a unified leader. One of the old men in Tuoba said: "Your Highness, if you want us to draw 30,000 soldiers and 100,000 laborers, our party departments can't do it." ”

"What's wrong?"

"If it was okay in the past, but until now, although the children of our party have not been as good as the Tuyuhun people, they have also sacrificed many children. At most, 20,000 soldiers can be drawn, and then each department must stay behind, otherwise the southern Qiang, especially the ones that have gone out of the west-leaning mountains, will approach the Qiang people such as Bailanqiang and Misang. In the unlikely event that they are ill-intentioned, our divisions will not be able to defend. ”

This great victory, even Bai Lan and other Qiang people did not dare to covet it. But just in case, Li Wei said: "In this way, you will transfer 20,000 people, and 10,000 people will guard each crossing, and wait until General Xue and the imperial army rush to Songzhou, and the crisis will be eliminated." Another 10,000 people, be sure to tune to Jiuqu immediately. Also, labor, you must be able to smoke as much as you can, and in August the wheat is ripe, and you must help in the harvest. All before July, the individual castles will be roughly built. This time is critical, otherwise our army may still be in the Tuyuhun territory and have not returned, and there are many Tuyuhun people to be resettled, and the imperial court will send some soldiers and soldiers' families to move to Qinghai, which is very chaotic. It is easy for the Qin Tomb to have some bad thoughts. ”

"We draw as much labor as possible."

"Not to the maximum, but this is also a city built for you. Know how much gunpowder has been used to blow up those roads and keep your territory safe. Do you know how much a pack of gunpowder costs? From the production to the freight, to the cost of Qinghai, a package costs more than 200 yuan. ”

If it is an ordinary party member, they may not be able to know the value of a penny. But these old men all know, not to mention anything else, a horse is about fifteen to twenty wen. The completion of the blowing up of a road requires thousands of bags of gunpowder, which is equivalent to how many war horses have been killed. Then I thought about how many bags of gunpowder the Tang army had used in the war so far, and how many horses this was, which was probably not calculated, and it must be more expensive than the war horses in the hands of the party.

Li Wei said again: "Also, I want to ask you something. Why is it delaying for days? Do you know a story about the Han Dynasty? The general Li Guang was finally executed by the imperial court according to the law because of the delay. did not die, but in shame, he also committed suicide. What about you? It was delayed for at least two days, and it was these two days that allowed Ronzanpo to lead many soldiers to escape safely. Or are you alone in Qinghai, if you are not in Qinghai, will you obey the command of the imperial court? ”

This sentence is murderous and awe-inspiring.

These old men immediately bowed down and said, "Your Highness, the matter was very important at the beginning, and His Highness did not notify him in advance, so there must be differences in the ideas of various departments. ”

"Lone is very worried, if Lone is not in Qinghai that day, Tubo has sent more than 100,000 troops to come, and then falsely give you some benefits, I don't know if your party will betray our Tang Dynasty again?"

"No, Your Highness, please rest assured, our party members can still distinguish this."

However, Li Wei was very uneasy, on what kind of person Qinling was, although this time the party members betrayed, they would inevitably send someone to win them over when needed. This hesitation also sounded a wake-up call for Li Wei. Both ends of the first rat are inevitable, after all, the people who live in the cracks need to be guarded against. With a thought in his heart, he said: "This time I don't care about Lonely, and the credit you have made is Lone as truthfully playing the court." But Lone doesn't want to happen next time. ”

"Yes."

"But Lone still wants you to do one thing for Lone."

"Your Highness, please command."

"Please tell the various departments of Bai Lanqiang and ask them to surrender to our Datang immediately, otherwise, prepare to meet Lone's blow."

"Your Highness, I'm afraid it's difficult," dozens of old men hesitated on their faces again. Although they have a good relationship with Bai Lanqiang, Tubo has great respect for Bai Lanqiang. Tuyuhun was the first major tribe to be subdued by them, so they were very loyal to the Tubo people.

"Just bring it, it's up to them to choose whether to drop or not, and Lone can afford to wait, until August 15. After August 15, they will be completely our enemies of Datang. ”

"Yes."

A group of people went down, but a few days later, another group of guests came, saying that they were asking Li Wei for debts.

"It's good to ask for debts, Lone is waiting for them to come and collect debts from Lone." After Li Wei finished speaking, he happily greeted him again.
