Chapter 943: The Turks Are Coming
readx;?♂,
On the 10th day of December, the night, Anju. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Although the negotiations between Li Zixiong, Yuan An, Ashina Hanhai and Li Hun broke up unhappily, they were not without gains, and they roughly figured out the bottom line within the Great Wall.
After all, there are too many precedents for this kind of appeasement, and the requirements of Middle-earth for vassals have always been in accordance with the rules, such as Anzhou and Northeast, a loose alliance composed of Han and Lu, because of their limited comprehensive strength, their status and treatment are very different from those of princely vassal states.
After Li Hun returned to the pavilion, Li Zixiong convened the principal officials of the Great Governor's Office overnight to discuss the specific conditions for appeasement proposed by Li Hun.
The gap between the conditions between the two sides is too big, Anzhou wants the autonomy of Anzhou and the northeast, which is actually a feudal town separation, an independent small kingdom, and Ashina Dur wants to be called the Khan in the east, in fact, it is to strive for the all-round support of Middle-earth to the greatest extent, in short, the goal of both sides of the Han and the Han is to strengthen themselves with the help of the power of Middle-earth, and they are trying to calculate Middle-earth by all means. But how could Middle-earth be in the middle of the scheme? Even if China and the East are to include Anzhou and Northeast China in the territory of China and build up the martial arts of opening up the territory and expanding the territory, and at the same time can use this active defense measure to vigorously promote the development of the situation between the north and the south in the direction favorable to China and Turkey, but China will not violate its own principles, will not damage its own foundation for the sake of narrow interests, and will not deviate from the road of centralization and repeat the mistake of separatism and separatism, so Li Hun's requirements are very low, give Anzhou a governor, give the Northeast a governor, what autonomy, what khan, don't even think about it.
When Li Zixiong talked about the negotiations, the high-level officials of the Great Governor's Office all scoffed. Although it had been expected that Middle-earth would be arrogant and arrogant, and that he would have nothing to fear because he had pinched the "vital point" of Anzhou, the "offer" was so low that a governor and a governor wanted to take Anzhou and the Northeast, and the white wolf with empty gloves still made everyone very disappointed and depressed.
After discussion, everyone still adheres to the established decision, the bottom line of the alliance is the autonomy of Anzhou and the Northeast, this bottom line can not be abandoned, once it is abandoned, the autonomy of Anzhou and the Northeast will be handed over, it is equivalent to handing over the military, political and financial power of the alliance, the result is that people are swordsmen, I am fish and meat, let it be slaughtered, the consequences are unimaginable, at that time, don't say that Li Fengyun and the grassroots generals of the alliance may be settled by the official autumn, even Li Zixiong, Han Shige, these fallen nobles will not escape death, In the end, it may be a different body or even a dead person.
As for how and how to uphold the autonomy, it is not yet possible to make a conclusion, and the final decision can only be made on the basis of the development process of negotiations and the degree of compromise within the Great Wall, after the administrative division of counties and counties, in which the governors under the central government will take charge of the military and government affairs and have a part of the military, government, and financial powers, or whether they will submit to Middle-earth in the form of vassals and have complete military, political and financial powers independent of the central government.
In fact, Li Fengyun had already made the final decision to establish the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate in Anzhou and the northeast, with four prefectures under its jurisdiction, of which the Anton Metropolitan Protectorate was directly under the central government, and the four prefectures under its jurisdiction were autonomous by the Han, Turkic, Xi, Khitan, and Xia ethnic groups, and had relatively independent military, political and financial powers.
This is obviously a workaround, although there is no implementation of the administrative division of counties and counties, but accept the direct leadership of the central government, the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate is the highest leading body of the central government stationed in Anzhou and Northeast China, so that Anzhou and Northeast China are actually included in the territory of Middle-earth, and at the same time, this policy takes into account the autonomy of various ethnic groups, in fact, it is to decentralize the autonomy, in order to retain the autonomy of Anzhou and Northeast China in disguise, as long as the four prefectures are huddled together, the Anton Metropolitan Protectorate is "hollowed". Of course, the premise of "overhead" is that the Andong Protectorate does not have a strong army that can deter all kinds of tribes, so as long as the Anton Protectorate has a strong army and strong strength, it can actually control this area.
Li Fengyun tried his best to maximize the interests of this return, and for this reason, he considered all aspects of the situation and tried his best to take into account the interests of all parties, but the idea is good, and the implementation is too difficult, because of this, this is the top secret of the alliance, and it cannot be disclosed in any case. At present, only Li Zixiong, Yuan An, Xiao Yi and Ashina Hanhai know about the insiders on Fangcheng's side, and the rest don't know the bottom line set by the alliance in this return negotiation.
The mood of the four insiders is different, Yuan An and Xiao Yi are bound to win, Ashina Hanhai is also going all out, only Li Zixiong is worried.
Li Fengyun entrusted the return negotiations to Li Zixiong, it seems that he believes in Li Zixiong, but in fact, he is confident and has the chance to win, and he is not afraid that the return negotiations will deviate from the established track under the auspices of Li Zixiong, and there is no other reason, even if Li Zixiong is selfish, trying to use the return of Anzhou and the Northeast in exchange for the pardon of the Holy Lord and the center, in exchange for his own illustrious reputation and the shadow of future generations, but in fact he is shaving his head and picking a hot head, it is pure wishful thinking, his situation is the same as Yu Rou, Pei Shuang, Lai Yuan, The situation of Zheng Yan and others is very different, he is a stubborn conservative magnat, and he is the political enemy of the Holy Lord and the reformers, while Yu Rou and others are supporters of the Holy Lord, and they were deliberately "pulled into the water" after being captured by Yang Xuangan, used to sow discord, shake the morale of the army, and slap the face of the Holy Lord and the reformers, and are victims and victims of political struggles, so after the Holy Lord gets the martial arts of opening up the territory, he will definitely pardon Yu Rou and others, but he will not pardon Li Zixiong, Han Shige and other real rebels.
Facts have proved that Li Fengyun's judgment is very correct.
Judging from a series of measures taken by the Holy Lord to establish the Anton Governor's Mansion and appoint Li Pingyuan as the first Anton Governor, as well as Li Hun taking the initiative to go out to appease the Governor, the Holy Lord and the center do have the sincerity to appease, but judging from the appeasement conditions set by Li Hun, this sincerity is only aimed at the grassroots forces of the alliance headed by Li Fengyun.
The rank of the governor of Anzhou should be the fourth grade normally, which is equivalent to the Wu Benlang general of the Zhongjun Taishou or the Weifu, and under special circumstances it can be as high as the third grade, of course, this from the three grades, compared with the three grades of the Shangshu Provincial Ministers, the generals of the Weifu and the Shangjun Taishou, the power disparity is too great, but it is enough to make the grassroots heroes satisfied, after all, Li Fengyun's official rank and rank are powerful, and their subordinates will rise to the top, and they can be regarded as leaping into the dragon gate, completely bidding farewell to the humble status of the past, and since then they have become a real bureaucratic and aristocratic class, You can glorify your ancestors.
However, what was the status of Li Zixiong and Han Shige, these fallen nobles in the past? With the martial arts of opening up the territory, even if the merits and demerits are offset, they should be pardoned by the Holy Lord and the center, right? They were personally pardoned, and of course the family members and families who had been affected by them were rehabilitated, and the glory and wealth enjoyed by the family and family were restored, and this was an important reason why they returned to Middle-earth at all costs. However, there is only one object of appeasement by the Holy Lord and the center, they deliberately treat the rebels as a whole, and there is no distinction between the grassroots heroes and the fallen nobles, so that the benefits of the appeasement are so many, and they are not enough at all, and more importantly, the credit for opening up the territory is mainly owned by the grassroots heroes, the grassroots heroes eat meat, and the fallen nobles can only drink soup, and the final result can be imagined, they can definitely be pardoned personally, and their families and families will also be rehabilitated, but the glory and wealth of the past can never come back, Families can quickly decline and even fall.
That is to say, the Holy Lord and the reformers have decided to put a group of political enemies such as Li Zixiong and Han Shige and their families and families to death, as for Yu Rou, Pei Shuang, Lai Yuan, Zheng Yan and others, they and their families and families were originally supporters of the Holy Lord, so this calamity was limited to themselves, and did not harm their parents, wives and children and the entire family, the catastrophe will pass, and the opportunity will be good in the future.
It is not difficult to see from this that if Anzhou accepts Li Hun's appeasement conditions, Li Zixiong's luck and hope will be completely shattered, so he has no choice but to choose Li Fengyun's countermeasures, only by using this negotiation to maximize the alliance and strive to make contributions in the upcoming Civil War, he can continue to maintain his luck, a glimmer of hope, and it is possible to return to Middle-earth with glory.
After the high-level officials of the Great Governor's Office formulated specific countermeasures against Li Hun's negotiation conditions, Li Zixiong was about to announce the end of the deliberations, when suddenly a subordinate hurriedly arrived and handed over an urgent letter from the ghost side.
Li Zixiong was secretly surprised, worried that there would be changes in the pine forests on the flat land, and once the Turkic army with the banner of the southeast of the Moraine launched another attack, the Taoshui defense line could not be stopped at all, and the ghost side would fall into a big war again, which would definitely destroy the good situation in front of him and cast a thick shadow on the return negotiations.
Yuan An, Xiao Yi, Kong Yingda and other high-level officials of the Great Governor's Mansion also had the same worries, in fact, since the independent force went north to conquer the weak Luoshui, what they were most worried about was the flat pine forest, that is, the safety of the ghost side, so when Li Zixiong read the urgent mail, everyone's eyes were firmly on Li Zixiong, trying to estimate the quality of the news from the subtle changes in his expression.
Li Zixiong's grim face gradually soothed, and a reassuring smile slowly appeared on his old and haggard face.
Yuan An, Xiao Yi and the others looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Ming Gong, what is the good news for the ghost side?" Yuan asked Fufuxu.
Li Zixiong put down the urgency, looked up at everyone, and suddenly laughed, "The Turks are here." ”
Everyone looked at each other, puzzled. If it is good news, why do you say that the Turks are coming? Could it be that the Turkic army is still good news?
Yuan An'an thought of lightning, suddenly thought of something, and asked in surprise, "The Turks want to come to Anzhou to negotiate?" ”
Li Zixiong smiled, "The Turks are coming, they are coming so fast." ”
Everyone was overjoyed, and the atmosphere in the lobby suddenly changed, and even more excited people even cheered and applauded.
