Yan Du smiled when he heard this: "I actually have a little idea about this." Zhao Gongming then said: "Oh?www.biquge.info In this case, I would like to ask the prime minister to make it clear, and I will try to learn it in the future. Yan Du then said in a low voice: "If there are many heroes today, there are many heroes in the grassland, such as the Golden Horde Khan, there are few strong people who can nominally unify our Turks, and most of the others are strong people who gather to revolt, and they are not kings." Of course, our Ashina clan is also the strongest among them. “

Zhao Gongming continued to listen to him, and Yan Du took a sip of mare's milk wine and said: "If we want to unify these tribal heroes who are independent, we can only learn to use strong financial resources and advanced political mechanisms and scientific and technological systems to suppress them like the Han people in the south, and only in this way will we not be wiped out and forgotten like those ethnic groups that have risen." Zhao Gongming was a little surprised, this idea was an authentic Han thinking mode, the son of a grassland barbarian chief could be so well understood and have his own opinions, he was a little more surprised by Yan Du at this time.

Yan Du continued: "Our strengths and weaknesses are clearly analyzed, the advantages need to be developed, and the disadvantages must be avoided from being discovered. What should we do to deal with the Khitans, Khitans and Murwei people, what should we do with other Turkic tribes, what should we do with the Han people in the south, and what should we do with the merchants of the Western Regions? ”

Zhao Gongming nodded and said: "You are right, these things are also what Lao Chen has been thinking about, but unfortunately there are not many people here who are willing to think so far, they only look at the immediate interests, and never think about long-term development." He suddenly felt that Yandu was the righteous lord of the Ming monarch he had been dreaming of, and he needed such a person to give him a chance to realize his ambitions and ideals.

Yan Du said lightly: "We are just learning the thinking of the Han people, but we can't copy it as it is, this is not right, we must arrange these things according to our own characteristics, otherwise they will think that we have been sinicized, and naturally some people are unwilling to resist." Zhao Gongming nodded and said: "Well, this is true, the reason why some policies could not be implemented or could not be implemented before may be because of this reason, they are afraid." ”

Yan Du poured him a glass of mare's milk wine and said slowly: "We are now talking about the Qigu people and the Khitan people. Zhao Gongming respectfully took the wine he poured, he now has a little different feeling about Yan, and feels that this person is likely to be the future generation of Mingjun. Yan Du smiled and said, "I feel very happy to talk with Mr. Then he changed his tone and said, "I don't think they have any ambitions about the Covenanters. ”

"Why do you say that, because their current system, whether it is technology or technology, they can't reach the point of being able to dominate, if it is difficult to even be dominant, then they have no chance in so many heroes in the grassland, the reason why I will ally with them is to use their power to suppress some people, and then free up their hands to deal with more powerful enemies." He took a sip of wine, picked up a piece of bread and took a bite.

"The Khitans are different, they are newly emerging, they have a momentum, and they have been in contact with the Han people for a long time, and have learned some of their advanced technology and culture, as long as they are given a little time, these people are likely to become our opponents and obstacles to dominate the grassland in the future. So I think we have to attack them now, the high-rook people are unreliable, they can't beat the Khitans, but I think the Khitans can try, in short, in my opinion, if you can, it is best to let the Khitans and the Khitans touch each other. ”

Zhao Gongming nodded and said: "Well, this trick is called sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight in our Central Plains, or it is called driving the wolf and fighting the tiger." It's a strategy to preserve one's strength and consume the opponent, and it's really powerful. Yan Du smiled with satisfaction: "Actually, I also want to know how Mr. views our tribe and how he sees our future direction." This was asking Zhao Gongming what he meant, and he was naturally very happy in his heart, and took the initiative to give Yan Du a glass of wine and said: "Actually, this question has been bothering the old man for a long time, and I have been thinking about where and how to go on the road of our tribe, this is a very deep question." ”

"But many times my Han people's thinking and ideas are not very valued by the Khan, and can only give a little opinion on some military policies, you must know that now the Han people in the south have ended hundreds of years of chaotic internal fighting, and they have been unified under the rule of Gao Huan, and it is very likely that we will be conscripted by force in the north, just like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty fought against the Xiongnu."

Yan Du put the wine glass in his hand and said hatefully: "I have long wanted to try it with him, and they all said that the Han emperor was also born in slavery at the beginning, and now he can sit on the world and become the emperor, I am very interested in him." Gao Zhongming nodded and said: "This person does have extraordinary abilities, and he can always make the best choice at the most appropriate time, and he has been defeated and defeated several times, and I am a little jealous of his luck." However, this person is still very capable, at least in terms of employing people, the Han man who came with Sun Teng at the funeral of Tumu Khan last time, I heard that he was the general of Southern Liang and the army division, called Yang Kan, this person can be enveloped by him, and he must not be underestimated. ”

Yan was very interested and said, "He even dares to use the people of Nanliang?" It does seem to be unique. Zhao Gongming nodded and said, "That's why I said that if he can be like Emperor Wu of Han, it will definitely not be a good thing for us, and we need to prepare in advance." Yan Du was silent, he agreed with this opinion, it is true, in the face of the Han people, who are more advanced and powerful than the Turks in terms of science and technology, manpower and material resources, although they can still get a little cheap in terms of combat effectiveness, but they will not be able to defeat the Han people at all in a protracted war over time.

Yan Du said to Zhao Gongming: "Sir, I hope that if you have any good plans or governance programs in the future, you can discuss them with me, and the two of us will discuss the feasibility together." If you need my support for anything, just ask, I can treat you as one of my own, as a true Turk. By the way, your son is two years old this year, right? Zhao Gongming nodded and said, "Thank you Prime Minister for your concern, the dog is one and a half years old this year, almost two years old." Yan Du sighed: "Yes, time flies, I think I still remember the first time I met you." ”

Zhao Gongming also sighed: "Indeed, at that time, the minister was indeed in prison and embarrassed, but fortunately, the Tumen Khan rescued the minister from suffering, gave me food and clothing, gave me a wife and had children, for which the minister has always been grateful, I said that this life is only the Ashina family, as long as I Zhao Gongming is alive, my children and grandchildren will serve the Ashina family." Yan Du patted him on the shoulder and said, "Sir, you don't have to thank anyone, your fate is in your own hands, if you hadn't been discovered by my father by your own literacy and hyphenation, he would not have been able to rescue you."
