Volume 2 Cangyan Black Cloud Chapter 228 Profiteering
Bu Yunfei once studied the history of the Tang Dynasty, and the study of the history of the Tang Dynasty, because of the inseparable relationship between the Hui and the Tang Dynasty, the history of the Hui is unavoidable. Ran Wen ???? ?? Therefore, Bu Yunfei has a better understanding of the domestic situation in Huifu. He knew that the current Hui was in a state of transition from a tribal alliance to a state system, and the state in this state was very unstable, and there was extremely fierce infighting among the ruling class.
There is an obscure record in the history of the Hui Dynasty: Prince Ye Hu was killed, but the reason is unknown. Intuitively, it felt like it was supposed to be a political murder.
Now, when Bu Yunfei saw the prince Kezhi himself, who was about to be killed in the historical records, Bu Yunfei had a hunch that Kezhi's death should be somehow related to the future Hui Khan Dengli. Therefore, Bu Yunfei came this time, planning to start between Ke Zhi and Dengli, but he didn't know the depth of the water yet, so he didn't dare to speak rashly, but only tried it slightly.
Bu Yunfei saw that Ke Zhi was silent, so he knew that there was a play, and said lightly: "Your subordinates are killing people and setting fire to my Datang Dynasty, but they are as cowardly as rats, and they dare not report their own home, and use the name of Bu Mou!" It is said that Lord Ye Hu is a hero in the world, but your subordinates are doing some tricks of stealing chickens and dogs, and Bu Mou killed them, one is to prove his innocence, and the other is to clean up the door for Lord Ye Hu, so as not to spread it out and be laughed at by the world! ”
"Fart, those bastards aren't Lao Tzu's subordinates at all!" Kirchi shouted.
Bu Yunfei nodded secretly. During the Tianbao period, not long after the establishment of the country, the national system was not yet complete, and there was no national army worthy of the name. Ye Hu is the leader of the whole ** team, in fact, what can be directly mobilized is only the tribal armed forces of him as the lord. And the generals of the nine tribes of the Hui family only obeyed the orders of the tribal leaders. In wartime, the Khan's generals could be requisitioned by various tribes, but only to the clan leaders, and not directly to the generals under the tribes.
Listening to Ke Zhi's tone, he was very disdainful of the two thousand Hui soldiers. This shows that he did not send the 2,000 Hui soldiers, and he was also extremely dissatisfied with that operation.
"That's weird." Bu Yunfei asked knowingly: "Lord Ye Hu is Marshal Hui, and the whole ** team is all Lord Ye Hu's subordinates. ”
"That's what that bastard in Dengli did, and it has nothing to do with Lao Tzu!" Kirchi shouted.
All the Hui people thought that it was Ke Zhi who recruited people, but the whole army was wiped out, and Ke Zhi had bitter words, and now when he heard Bu Yunfei say the same, Ke Zhi was very angry.
Bu Yunfei's heart suddenly brightened, and in a few words, he figured out the ins and outs of the matter.
The matter is very clear, the second prince of Hui Dengli, under the pretense of Ke Zhi's name, recruited Hui soldiers and generals to work for Li Fuguo, but things were not good, and he pushed Ke Zhi again.
Knowing the contradiction between Ke Zhi and Dengli, Bu Yunfei had a bottom in his heart.
Regarding the national conditions of Hui Hui, Bu Yunfei is even clearer than Ke Zhi. He even knew that this Kezhi would die at the hands of Dengli in the future!
After the death of Gele Khan, the successor will not be the eldest prince Kezhi, but the second prince Dengli!
Bu Yunfei said with a smile: "In this way, Lord Ye Hu wants to kill Bu Mou, it turns out that he wants to avenge the second prince Dengli!" The two princes have a deep brotherhood, Bu has offended the second prince, if he dies in the hands of the eldest prince, but he should also, Bu has nothing to say. ”
Bu Yunfei knew that Kezhi and Dengli were in the same situation, but he deliberately said so, obviously with sarcasm, then Kezhi listened to it in his ears, it was like overturning the oil and spicy shop, with all the five flavors of sweet and sour
Kezhi's face flushed angrily: "Fart!" Why did Lao Tzu avenge that villain! Lao Tzu hates to kill him! ”
Bu Yunfei saw that the teasing was almost over, and then he said in a deep voice: "Lord Ye Hu has become the meat on other people's boards, where is he still qualified to say such big words!" ”
Ke Zhi was taken aback and asked, "What do you mean by that?" ”
Bu Yunfei pointed to the sword on his shoulder and said, "Lord Ye Hu is so hospitable, Bu doesn't dare to say anything if he has something to say!" ”
Ke Zhi hurriedly put away his sword: "General Bu, please take a seat!" ”
Na Kezhi is not a mallet, and he is also aware of his situation.
The core tribe of the Hui Hui Kingdom, surnamed Hui Jiu, is strong by nature and free and loose. Gel Khan had a cowardly personality and could not control the Hui nine surnames, while Dengli had close ties with the Hui tribes and had formed his own power. Ko Zhi had a premonition of a threat from Dengli, but because Gel Khan favored Dengli, Ko Zhi was also helpless. Especially this time the Hui army defeated Shaanxi County, Dengli put the responsibility on Ke Zhi's head, Ke Zhi is difficult to defend himself, if the nine Hui Hui unite against Ke Zhi, he doesn't want to succeed to the throne, even the current Ye Hu, he can't do it.
Therefore, hearing Bu Yunfei say this, Ke Zhi heard that Bu Yunfei had something to say, and hurriedly put down his body.
Bu Yunfei smiled faintly: "Lord Ye Hu, my Datang follows the etiquette!" As the so-called rude law, there is no order! This is the axiom of statecraft! Lord Jingzhao Yin Cui's official residence is a third-grade official, but he is the Son of Heaven, and he is still standing, my step is only a six-grade official, how dare he sit down! ”
Ke Zhi said angrily: "What General Bu said is right, please sit down!" ”
Bu Yunfei's words seem to be pedantic Taoism, but in fact, it is exactly the drawbacks of returning to the country.
Soon after the founding of the country, the state system was created in a rough way, and a real state order had not yet been established. Although there is an official rank, the leaders of the various tribes who are used to being casual do not really pay attention to the order of the hierarchy, even in the sweat tent, in front of the khan, they are free and loose, shouting and shouting, let alone in front of Ye Hu. In this chaotic situation, the governor lacked authority and could not command his subordinates, and the orders of the khan were often despised by the tribes. This phenomenon, in the 21st century, is called "weak execution" and will be misguided. In the eighth century, the Uighurs had just established a state system, which was their fatal weakness.
Superiority and humility are the order of the state. This is considered feudal dross in the twenty-first century. However, in the eighth century A.D., for a small and weak people struggling in adversity, the establishment of a strong centralized power through the order of superiority and inferiority was precisely a kind of progress!
Bu Yunfei is well versed in the way, and he broke the drawbacks of Hui Su in one word, and gave Cui Guangyuan enough face.
Na Kezhi is also a smart person, of course he understands Bu Yunfei's words, and hurriedly ordered someone to move a few saddles and put them by the campfire. Cui Guangyuan and Bu Yunfei sat down, but Cui Shuquan was standing behind Cui Guangyuan.
Ke Zhi said: "Cui Gongzi, please also take a seat." ”
Cui Shuquan said proudly: "My father is above, how dare I sit down!" ”
That Cui Shuquan is not big or small in front of Cui Guangyuan on weekdays, and he respects Cui Guangyuan a little bit and calls him "Dad", and his temperament directly changes to "old things". However, this kid is very clever, and when he listens to Bu Yunfei's tone, he knows that he wants to teach the Hui people who don't know etiquette, so he doesn't dare to be presumptuous.
Sure enough, Ke Zhi saw that Cui Shuquan was so respectful, and he admired it greatly. The biggest problem of the Hui tribes was that there was no respect or inferiority between the monarch and the minister, father and son, so that they acted independently and did not subordinate each other, and it was difficult to form a joint force. If you can establish a ritual and legal order like Datang, it will be a great success.
Cui Guangyuan saw that Ke Zhi's attitude was relaxed, and he breathed a sigh of relief, and his face was full of courtesy: "Lord Ye Hu, Cui came here today because he was entrusted by the emperor to thank Lord Ye Hu for his protection." ”
The Hui people came here at the invitation of the crown prince Li Hengzhi to kill the monarch and rebel, and this layer of paper was inconvenient to pierce, so Cui Guangyuan kept saying that Kezhi came to escort him. In fact, it was to persuade Kezhi to change his course and throw himself on the side of the Tang Emperor.
Of course, Ke Zhi understood Cui Guangyuan's words, but he said coldly: "What did the Tang Emperor take to thank me?" ”
Hui people have always been mercenary, doing things for others, and they want real money, not playing false. If you want to go to the emperor's side, then the emperor has to come up with something decent.
Cui Guangyuan hurriedly said: "Cui brought ......"
Cui Guangyuan's words were too diligent, but it made the Hui people look down on him, Bu Yunfei hurriedly interrupted Cui Guangyuan's words: "The Hui Kingdom was originally my nephew of the Tang Dynasty, and it was a human principle to come to escort him. However, my Tang Emperor has always been merciful, remembering that the Hui cavalry came thousands of miles, and the war horses were to eat, and Bu was ordered to bring twenty carts of forage, and asked Lord Ye Hu to laugh. ”
"Forage!" Mu Mituo said angrily: "Your Emperor of the Tang Dynasty regards my Hui cavalry as a flower!" ”
Bu Yunfei sneered: "Uncle's gift to my nephew, even if it is a piece of grass, is as heavy as a thousand gold!" Since Mu Junshi looks down on him, Bu can bring the forage back and return to our emperor. ”
Mu Mituo sneered: "I came thousands of miles back to the cavalry, and the Tang Emperor did not reward him, but he wanted to ask for someone empty-handed, this is the etiquette of the Tang Dynasty!" ”
Bu Yunfei laughed: "My Emperor of the Tang Dynasty doesn't have anything to ask Lord Ye Hu!" Lord Ye Hu led the cavalry uninvited, it was not invited by my Tang Emperor, it is said that it is an invasion of my Tang Dynasty, not only is it useless, but it is guilty, my Tang Emperor did not ask the guilt, it is already lenient, where is there any reward! ”
Ke Zhi led 2,000 Hui cavalry, and was invited by the crown prince Li Heng to rob the Tang Emperor's chariot. And Cui Guangyuan and Bu Yunfei came, and Mu Mituo and Ke Zhi took it for granted that it was the Tang Emperor who knew about Li Heng's plan and came to beg them to retreat. Since this is the case, the Tang Emperor should come up with real money. The reason why the Hui people agreed to Li Heng and send troops to come was nothing more than just the word "profit". The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty also sent people to meet them, but the Hui people did not refuse, so it depends on which side gives more real money!
Unexpectedly, Cui Guangyuan and Bu Yunfei brought twenty truckloads of materials!
Mu Mituo sneered: "Since that's the case, then what else is there to talk about!" Mumito said, facing Ko Zhi, his wrist pressed down slightly.
Mu Mituo is implying that Ke Zhi, the Tang Emperor is empty-handed, and the price given by the prince is a splendid Chang'an, which is more important and which is more important, at a glance. Killed Cui Guangyuan, Bu Yunfei and his party, and made up his mind to follow the crown prince Li Heng and kill the emperor!
