Chapter 133: Yan Mou
Yanding's journey back to his hometown to see his son was not smooth, not because there was anything on the road, but because Tubo was not worried.
More than 20 days before the spirit boy ascended to the throne, he left Rinka and rushed to the Eye City. Not to mention which is more important in his heart, 'Lingtong Ascension' or 'Son Yuyu', the key is that he has already arranged all the things related to the 'Ascension', and the rest of the things are handled by Uda and others.
As for the fact that there will be assassins in the ceremony, Yan Ding really didn't think too much about it, it was impossible to happen at all, but he never expected that something really happened, and the little living Buddha died tragically in front of tens of millions of believers
Before the national teacher arrived in Jingcheng, he received bad news from Rinka, there was nothing to say, he immediately turned around and rushed towards Tubo, there was such a big thing, the chaos between the plateau and the Chaitso Tower can be imagined, he had to preside over the overall situation, try to save the decline.
However, when he re-entered the plateau and had not yet reached Rinka, he received another piece of news: Doran had been punished again, and the southern fire had broken the army...... Yan Ding read the book of birds, lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then let out a long sigh, turned around again, no longer went to Rinka, walked in the direction of Dayan, and returned to China.
Yanding understood: Tubo is over.
Even if the northern and southern fronts were defeated and the Qatso Tata was in chaos, a country as large as the plateau would not be finished with the end of the story, and if it wanted to split the huge plateau in half and divide it up, it would not be possible to do so with the troops that the Uighurs are now investing and the southern fire led by Song Yang.
The 'Tubo is finished' in Yanding's heart refers to another meaning: Tubo is useless.
If he rushed to the Chai Tso Pagoda, with the means and ability of Yanding, he might not be able to suppress the civil strife, he was thinking about it along the way, and he already had a few ideas in his heart. But the problem is that Tibet still has to fight.
The civil strife could not be suppressed for too long, so it was necessary to resolve the war as soon as possible, and then make great efforts to rectify the many forces and contradictions in the Tchai Tso Tata. But look at the situation now...... The plateau destroys the heart, how can you still fight?
It is true that the invading armies of the north and south cannot swallow Tibet, but it is undoubtedly a fool's dream that Tibet wants to end the war as soon as possible. This thing is very clear, even if Yanding temporarily suppresses the internal troubles, it is impossible to drag on until the end of the war, after a few months, the war is far from over, but the hard work of the internal troubles has reached the limit, can no longer be suppressed, in the end it will still break out, and the national teacher will not get any benefits.
Instead of going to Tubo to do those futile things now, it is better to return to Dayan and see if you can take advantage of this chaos to be more affordable.
The unified, complete, and popular Tubo of the Chaitso Tower is of great use to the national teacher and Jingtai, and can help the Yan State dominate the world; But the chaotic plateau, where many forces are fighting and disorderly, is just a wasteland in the eyes of the national teacher.
Yanding re-embarked on the journey back to Yan, and was very depressed at the beginning: his own forces entered the Chaitso Tower, and the army that was most loyal to the Great Living Buddha and the biggest rebellion on the plateau were wiped out in the Yan Realm, and then the Tubo army invaded Nanli, so as to calm the shock caused by the violent death of the Great Living Buddha in the Chaitso Tower. Things were going very smoothly, and he and Wuda were also prepared for all kinds of possible disadvantages in the southern invasion war, but he never dreamed that an army of hundreds of thousands would be wiped out in Nanli, and he didn't expect that the people of Nanli were really crazy, and they actually sent troops back to retaliate; In the north, the Uighurs would abandon their hard-earned victories and move south to fight on the plateau, and the strong Tianguan, which was strong enough to hold back the enemy, would be flooded. Then there is the violent death of the little living Buddha and the curse of Dolan City...... The national teacher has done things all his life, and he has never encountered so many 'unexpected' in one thing.
With so many 'unexpected', how can things still be done?
Even now, I can't figure out where these many 'unexpected' come from. What can be determined is only a conspiracy that has been worked hard for decades, and the result is a lot of joy, and a busy work in vain.
It's a pity that there is so much thought and busyness. The success was successful, and the key steps had been completed, but he was defeated in the aftermath, so that the whole plot failed, how could the national teacher not be depressed.
But a few days later, the national teacher became relaxed again, very people have a very big mind, he is far more able to think and see than ordinary people, if not, he should be depressed since he was poisoned as a teenager, how can he become the first person in martial arts, poison arts, medicine and mental arts in Middle-earth!
What's more, it's not all bad news, there is also good news, after returning to Dayan, the national division received another military report, good news... When the father is useless, almost the Tubo in his hands can't grasp it; When his son was competitive enough, Jingtai's Yan army fought a big victory in Dog Rong, and the victory was far smoother than expected.
The battle of the southern border of the grassland is over, the Yan soldiers broke the enemy army, the wolf soldiers suffered heavy casualties and routed hundreds of miles, there was no flood and fire in this battle, and there was no sand cavalry, it was completely fought by the Yan soldiers with their lives, and the losses of the Yan army were not small, but the results were brilliant, enough to comfort the heroic souls who died in the battle.
……
Jingtai double happiness is coming.
Receiving the news of the victory ahead, he just smiled, and his expression was not too exaggerated, maybe in his eyes, 'my heavenly soldiers won the battle' is the thing that should be, but the little insect lying in his ear whispered the sentence 'Master is back, is waiting in the secret room of the apse', which really made him happy, laughed loudly, jumped up and ran to the apse, the little insect hurriedly picked up His Majesty's robe and chased out......
When the father and son met, they smiled at each other, but a few plain greetings, but the person who asked was extremely serious, and the one who answered was extremely careful.
is not afraid of the scenery, the national teacher told the story of Tubo as it is, and frankly admitted that the plot had been defeated and there was no return. Jingtai wanted to laugh after hearing this, but he had to endure it and endure it very hard...... If the plot against Tibet continues, my father will have to sit in the Tchai Tso Pagoda; The plot failed, but he was able to return to Yan Palace and stay by his side. There are pros and cons to both things, Jingtai prefers the latter, but this idea is not what the emperor should have, so he can only hold it in his heart and say that he will scold.
"Actually... At least, Tibet has been in chaos, and the threat to my Dayan is no longer there, so we are relaxed
It was also easy to send troops to take the plateau later. After holding it for a while, Jingtai held back a word of comfort, his face was gloomy, but his eyes were full of joy, this strange look fell on Yanding's eyes, and it had a complicated taste. With the eyes of the national teacher, of course, he can see through his son's little thoughts, but how can he be willing to scold, he just pretended not to see it at the moment, changed the topic and asked: "Dog Rong, what are you going to do next?" ”
Jingtai had already thought about this matter, and immediately responded: "The army has stopped for the time being, and I plan to withdraw some, but I haven't thought about how much to come back." ”
The national teacher was stunned for a moment, his eyes flashed with joy, and he asked: "Why don't you take advantage of the victory to pursue?" It's not in your nature. ”
Jingtai replied truthfully: "The weather is getting colder, and the impact on us is greater, going deep into the grassland to pursue the enemy's wounded soldiers, it is estimated that it will not be able to cut back too many wolf heads, and in the end it is necessary to kill some civilians to give me an errand, it is not necessary and not worth it." ”
With Jingtai's previous temperament, he would definitely order the army to pursue, how could he care about the weather and influence, this time he was no longer willful and knew how to weigh the pros and cons, and the national teacher naturally felt happy.
Jingtai is crazy, but not stupid, he has always understood the importance of being powerful, but many times he can't help his madness.
The national teacher asked again: "If you don't chase it, why do you plan to withdraw the army?" ”
"The wolf suffered a great loss from the Uighurs, and suffered a crushing defeat at our hands, and was really hurt to the root, even if I ignored him and left them to cultivate, I would not have thought of recovering without more than ten years of effort, and there was no threat to the north for the time being, and it was useless to put so many soldiers and horses on the steppe; On the other hand, the most hateful thing about the wolves is that they have no blood, they can't fight and escape, it's not difficult to defeat them, it's very troublesome to completely wipe them out, and the battle is almost over at this point, even if it is over winter and waiting for the spring of the next year, the army will go deeper, and it will be endlessly chasing and fleeing, and people will be wasted there, and they will spend money and worry, so it is better to withdraw. ”
Jingtai's words are a little unclear, but it is enough for the national teacher to understand.
Yan Ding nodded and continued to ask: "Stop it like this, isn't it too cheap wolf?" ”
Jingtai laughed: "It's just that I won't fight for the time being, but I didn't stop, I just changed the way... Tong Chou found the descendants of the Heshui Department, called Baoli Pavilion, and Wen Jin moved out of the horse and had already negotiated with them. ”
"Polaroid Court?" The national teacher was a little curious: "It's a woman?" "He is not very proficient in the dog language, but he can also hear that 'Baoli Pavilion' is the name of the grassland woman, and the specific meaning is not the moon or the spring, he can't remember it clearly.
Jingtai smiled: "Yes, it's quite young, but I heard that it's ugly, it's no longer there, and you have to marry if you're ugly, and I've already explained it to the fourth child." ”
'Heshui' is a tribe within the Dog Rong clan, once powerful, but lost in the struggle for power, the clan suffered heavy casualties, and the hatred of this part of the wolf king is far better than the hatred of the grassland against the Han people.
The power of the old tribe has dissipated, but there is still some prestige in the grassland, and the heir of the current Heshui tribe is the princess called 'Baoli Pavilion'. Jingtai's meaning is clear, but the enlarged army is entangled with wolf pawns on the grassland, and the people and money are injured and the casualties are borne, so it is better to raise a puppet gold tent.
The wolf king on the grassland was seriously injured, and Heshui had the support of Dayan, and the development was just around the corner, and it may not be impossible to fight with the wolf king. Let the grassland people deal with themselves is undoubtedly a good topic for the Yan people. The details of the matter have now been negotiated, and there is no marriage among them, and Jingtai also deliberately chose a son who does not lack legs to marry the ugly princess of Inurong.
Yan Ding wanted to laugh out loud, in the recent past time, he has been busy in Tubo, everything about Da Yan has been handed over to Jingtai, he didn't know anything about what Jingtai said just now, he didn't participate in it, and he never thought about it, and no matter whether he can succeed in supporting Heshui, the emperor's current thoughts and practices alone are enough to make Yan Ding feel relieved.
Jingtai's words were not finished: "The plan to withdraw troops from the dog is still confidential, and the army must be quiet when it returns, I plan to let them do one thing...... Exterminate Tan Guide. ”
Tan Guide's rebels have always been a problem for Dayan's henchmen, and there are two reasons why they have not been exterminated: Tan Guide is an old fox, old in soldiers, and has been dormant waiting for opportunities all the time, and he will not easily make major moves, let alone collide head-on with the Yan army, coupled with the help of Xie Men's lackeys, the Yan army has been encircled and suppressed several times, and his main force cannot be caught; Second, Tan Guide is old and has no heirs, and the rebels under his command all look at him as the head of the horse, and he looks impressive, but how many years does the old man have to live? When he dies, the rebels will have civil strife, so Yanding and Jingtai have decided that it is best to exterminate them immediately, and if they can't catch it, they don't have to work too hard, just wait for the old man to die, and the things that will happen after the death of the old man will be much easier.
This time, Jingtai was determined to destroy the rebels, first, Zhuge Xiaoyu finally helped him find the hiding place of Tan Guide's people; On the other hand, even the national teacher did not expect that Jingtai would withdraw his troops from the grassland, and others could not imagine that this army of soldiers and horses jumped out of thin air, and Tan Guide could not be prepared, so it was difficult to escape the doom this time;
And more importantly, now that the chaos in Middle-earth has appeared, no country is not at war, this chaos was originally caused by Yan Ding, but because of Song Yang's extra hand, the current degree of chaos and development direction far exceeded Yan people's expectations. Although the war has not yet burned to the Yan country, it is necessary to calm down the internal troubles as soon as possible before Da Yan can really let go of his hands and feet to win from the chaos, so Jingtai can't wait for Tan Guide to die of old age.
Waiting for Tan Guide to die of old age was originally a helpless move, and now it would be better to be able to directly ask for his life, the national teacher naturally nodded in agreement, and the happiness in his heart because of his son's growth was even more difficult to express in words.
"One more thing," Jingtai took a deep breath, and his voice slowed down a lot, "I've been thinking about it lately, it's time to go and take Nanli down." ”
Yan Ding was noncommittal: "Tell me the truth." ”
The little insect stepped forward with the medicinal tea, Long live the Lord said too much today, you have to moisten your throat before you open your mouth, and the eyesight price of the henchman little eunuch must be there.
After drinking the medicinal tea, Jingtai cleared his throat: "All the countries in Middle-earth have mobilized swords, among which the situation in Tibet is the most chaotic, there is no dynasty to speak of, even if the country is not destroyed, it will be a situation of feudal lords in the future; Dog Rong has also been hit hard, and when Heshui rises again in the future, it will not be much better than Tubo; Of the four decent powers, the Great Yan and the Uighurs in the northwest did not suffer any losses, and they did not suffer any military disasters in the outside world, and they all won battles outside. ”
"Both the Tibetans and the Inujung have been hit hard, and they will not be able to slow down for a while, they will not be able to give the Uighurs a great defeat, and the current situation will not change much, so the pattern of Middle-earth will be clear, and it will not be long before the Uighurs and our Dayan will fight. Compared with the two countries, I can't see where the Uighurs are victorious, the desert is not as rich as the eastern soil, the Uighurs are far inferior in national strength, and they fought first the dogs and then the Tibetans, and the internal friction is much greater than ours. ”
Jingtai was not in a hurry to say the reason why he wanted to fight Nanli, but from the general trend, his tone was not in a hurry or slow.
"The Great Yan and the Uighurs will definitely fight, but the first battle will not be in the desert or the eastern soil, and the battlefield should be on the plateau. Even if the Yan army invaded the desert one day, it would do so from the direction of Tibet... The western border of the Uighurs was well defended by the Shamin, while the southern pass was much weaker. ”
A big victory and successive arrangements in the north of the Yan Kingdom can basically eliminate the threat of wolf pawns. Tubo was in chaos on its own, not only did it pose no threat to Yan Guo, but on the contrary, Jingtai also wanted to use it as a springboard.
If Dayan wants to take the plateau, this matter will not change, since the conspiracy of the national division is bankrupt and the method of bloodless soldiers is not good, then simply send troops to Tubo and use the iron hooves of the Yan army to set foot on that good place.
"The soldiers and horses in the western Xinjiang have already been reorganized, and the army has been assembled and supplied sufficiently, but I don't want to fight now, winter is not a good time to attack the plateau, and then... Although the Tibetans have lost their morale and military morale, there are still many soldiers, so let them spend more time with the Uighurs, I am not in a hurry. Jingtai smiled, quite relaxed: "In short, we now have the upper hand, holding the male soldiers, and we have the confidence to fight for the world, especially the wonderful thing is that those big wars and evil battles in the future will not fall in Yannei, and the domestic peace will have no fear, and the domestic peace will be worry-free." Only ......"
Halfway through speaking, Jingtai suddenly changed his words: "Nanli." Nanli had formed an alliance with the Uighurs, and at least for now, it seems that the friendship between the Nanban and the Uighurs was not shallow, and the Uighurs used troops against the Uighurs, and the Nanban declared war with them; The Nanban was beaten half to death by the Tibetans, and the Uighurs sent troops to the plateau to retaliate. ”
"Phoenix City also understands a truth: if Dayan dominates Middle-earth, the Southern Kingdom will definitely disappear." Jingtai's tone gradually increased: "It is inevitable that Yan and the Uighurs will compete for supremacy, and it is also inevitable that the Nanli will help the Uighurs, and Nanli and Yan are bordered...... Rather than waiting for them to drag me back and bring the flames of war to Dayan, it is better to extinguish it now! ”
Although Nanli was weak in the past, he was clearly a part of maintaining stability with the Middle-earth world, not to mention anything else, Tubo would not watch Yan Guo swallow Nanli's fat in one bite, not to mention that Yanbei still has dogs and dogs, but now that Middle-earth is in chaos, Fanzi and Wolf Zi are too busy to take care of themselves, and the balance is no longer there, so how can Dayan have any scruples.
"In addition, the turmoil and chaos in Middle-earth to the present, the situation seems to be very bad for the Tibetans and Uighurs, but if we really want to talk about injuries... The one who was the most injured must be Nanli. ”
Nanli was weak and poor, and although he won the battle against Fanzi, the catastrophe caused great harm to the country......
Finally, Jingtai waved his hand: "Pacifying Nanli and getting rid of the Uighur helpers can sweep away the worries and benefit the overall situation; Nanli's new creation has not healed, it is effortless to beat him, and I have no loss. In that case, why not fight? ”
The national teacher also took a sip of water and asked, "Have you said all the truth about Nanli?" ”
Jingtai laughed again: "There is still one left, I want to hit it...... After a pin, I want to fight in my dreams! ”
