Chapter 306: Worship the Five Phases in a Row

Yang Guang was silent for a long time, and suddenly sighed, "People have no long-term concerns, but they must have near-term worries." The danger of the Eastern Turks is imminent, and if I can't defeat them first and let them rebel against our Great Sui, the consequences will be unimaginable. How far is the border between my Great Sui and the Turks? How can the border be guarded? I've heard you say that the best defense is offense, and I couldn't agree more. ”

Yang Guang is not a person who can accept passive beatings, in his eyes, no matter how strong the Turks are, they are actually just a steppe barbarian. In his heart, he never put the Turks on an equal footing with the Great Sui, so he never regarded them as an equal opponent. He only felt that if the Turks were allowed to enter the Central Plains, it would make him lose face. What he wants to do is to be an emperor through the ages, to be on par with the Qin Emperor and Han Wu, how can he endure a small Turk coming to the door.

"Your Majesty, this time and that time." Chen Kefu thought about it, but still persuaded him, "It is difficult to achieve victory if you send an army to fight thousands of miles away. Now the Eastern Turks rely on the abundance of military horses and have the heart of beasts, and they migrate like a flock of birds, and it is difficult to control them. We can't be considered to have opened up its land, nor can we have its people strong, and they have not belonged to our people since ancient times. If the Sui army goes thousands of miles away to compete for interests, then the men and horses will be exhausted, and the enemy will rely on its all-round superiority to deal with our weaknesses. And the crossbow is extremely strong, and the arrow cannot pierce the reckless: at the end of the wind, the force cannot drift the feathers. Not at the beginning, but also at the end. It is inconvenient to attack, so it is better to break it with the strategy of differentiation and co-optation. ”

"What's your plan?"

"Your Majesty, when the emperor faced the powerful Turks, he used the strategy of attacking from afar and close and combining the weak to control the strong, so as to continuously weaken the strength of the Turks and ensure the peace of our Great Sui border. Now that the Western Turks are weak, so are the Eastern Turks. The Eastern Turks are from Khitan and Murwei in the east, Tuyuhun and Gaochang in the west, and dozens of departments such as Guan Xi, Huan, and Tiele. And now, we have succeeded in pulling the deed and the murwei out of the hands of the Eastern Turks. The Adina of the Khitan became the Khitan king of my Great Sui, and the Murwei grassland also became my four counties against the mountains. Your Majesty, as long as this continues, we will be able to successfully contain the Turks without even using a large army. ”

"What does Pei Aiqing mean?" Yang Guang said to Pei Shiju below. Bae Shiju is the most skilled diplomatist in the DPRK, and he has basically participated in all foreign strategies for decades. When he first fought Goguryeo, it was his plan.... At this time, Yang Guang naturally thought of him again.

Pei Shiju was also worried today, he had just returned from the grassland, and he didn't expect such a big change to happen in a blink of an eye. Not only did Chen Kefu pacify Mu Wei, but he also had such a big thing happening as soon as he returned to Beijing. Pei Yun's transfer has already shown that Yang Guang is dissatisfied with Pei Valve. Although Pei Shiju and Pei Yun have the same surname Pei, they are actually not a family, and they can't even play together. But they were united because of Yang Guang's closeness, and finally formed Pei Que, they are sharing weal and woe, one prosperity and one loss. At this time, when he saw the emperor asking him, he didn't dare to deliberately go against Chen Kefu anymore.

got up and saluted, Pei Shiju stood up, "What the right servant said is very true, my Great Sui conquered Goguryeo, and the Eastern Turks took advantage of the situation to rise, which indeed constituted a serious threat to my Great Sui." However, now the right servant shot to pacify the chamber and sent my Great Sui soldiers and horses deep into the northeast of the Eastern Turks. And we have successfully pulled the Khitan into the arms of our Great Sui, so to speak, we have not only cut off one of the arms of the Eastern Turks, but have even completed the offensive and defensive transformation of the Turks.

At present, our superiority is enough to deter the Eastern Turks, so that they will not dare to act rashly against our Great Sui for the time being. As long as the strategy of long-distance friendship and close attack is carried out again, and the weak are united to control the strong, the Eastern Turks will inevitably split again, and there is no need to be afraid. ”

"The Eastern Turk Khan, the younger brother of the Shibi Khan, commanded the Xi and Xuan tribes, and His Majesty can marry the daughter of the clan to him in the name of the princess, and make her the Southern Khan. In addition, the Tiele tribe has gradually grown in the north over the years, and His Majesty can also marry a family daughter and make her the Khan of the North, so that the Eastern Turks can be divided into three. At that time, if the Turkic civil war breaks out, then our Great Sui only needs to send a soldier and horse from the north and south to go deep into the steppe to help it fight. If, no matter who wins in the end, its strength will inevitably be greatly damaged, and then there will be a time when our Yasui will gather the defeated side and garrison the border of our Sui, then the Turkic troubles will also be gone. ”

Pei Shiju said that there was a feasible strategy, and the rule of the Turks was different from that of the Central Plains Dynasty. They are nomadic and have a tribal system. Just like the Khitan and Murwei before them, they were nominally vassals of the Eastern Turks, but they had their own patriarchs to rule. ,

The Turkic Khan is only the most powerful tribe among all the tribes, and it is very common for the tribes to rebel and even stand on their own, as long as you have the strength to not be afraid of the Turkic Khan, then you can stand on your own.

This was the case in the previous wars between the Great Sui and the Western Turks and the Eastern Turks, which were divided and drawn. The current Shibi Khan's father, Qimin Khan, ascended to the throne under the support of the Sui after the defeat of the Eastern Turks. And marrying off the daughter of the clan in the name of the princess is the best way to show the alliance.

Yang Guang stood up and walked off the platform, "What Erqing said, he should think deeply. If you want to benefit the country, will you avoid it because of life and death! I often read history books, but when I see my Central Plains Dynasty, for thousands of years, I have not been bullied by foreign people.

I can't sleep every night. Since I succeeded to the throne, I have braved hardships and dangers to lead my troops to the west, west, north, and east, so what? What did I do to build the canal and build the eastern capital? I am for the sake of my Chinese generations, and I don't want my Chinese clan to be wiped out by the barbarians of the Quartet one day. Only enterprising and expanding is the guarantee to ensure the strength of our Central Plains Huaxia. I am not afraid of what people say. From now on, I will re-appoint Chen Kefu as the generalissimo of the Mobei Provincial Marching Army, coordinate the soldiers and horses of Liaoxi, Liaodong, Murowei, Khitan, and Mòhé, and grant the Qing the right to make decisions on the spot in the battle of the Eastern Turks.

In addition, from now on, Pei Shiju will be crowned as the subordinate province and be fully responsible for the affairs of the pro-alliance. My will has been decided, in my lifetime, I must completely eradicate the Turks, Wangqing and others will do their best! ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty! Hooray, hooray, hooray! ”

Chen Kefu and Pei Shiju were busy kneeling down and thanking them, both of them were moved. What Pei Shiju moved was that after so many years, he finally rose one step and got the position he was most looking forward to, and since then he has become the prime minister. As a civil servant, being able to worship the prime minister is what they dream of the most. And for Chen Kefu, he is equally happy, Yang Guang is happy for his great cause, east of Linyu Pass, that is, outside the Great Wall and Shanhaiguan, all the soldiers and horses are under his control, the four counties of Muwei and the seven counties of Liaodong, which he has already controlled. What really pleased him was that Liucheng County, Yan County, Liaodong County, and Liaoxi County in western Liaoning were all included in his moderation. Among the four counties, the three towns of Luhe, Huaiyuan and Tongding are all important military towns, and there are a lot of soldiers and horses and materials.

In this way, Chen Kefu can mobilize troops and horses east of Linyu Pass, and even transfer troops and horses to Linyu Pass when needed. And as long as Linyu Pass is captured, then Chen Kefu will face the North China Plain. Beiping County, Yuyang County, Shanggu County, Zhuo County, and even the Grand Canal are at their feet. Chen Kefu has always dared not start an incident in advance, firstly because the soldiers and horses were not ready, and secondly, he felt that the time had not come. There is also one of the most important reasons, that is, they are worried that he will be together, and they will gather troops and horses from Liaodong and then send troops to the Central Plains, and they will have to wait for almost a month before they reach the dangerous Linyu Pass.

For such a long time, the Sui army had already mobilized troops and horses through the Grand Canal to block the dangerous Yuguan that day. This is a mortal danger, if they can't break through this line of defense and rush into the Central Plains, then they who are locked up in Liaodong will lose all opportunities. At that time, what he will fight for is the real strength, and he Chen Kefu thinks that he does not have the strength to confront the entire Great Sui soldiers and horses.

Now that he has the four counties of Liaoxi, he can master the soldiers and horses of the four counties and three towns of Liaoxi, and even transfer his henchmen and horses to Liaoxi. Now he is already buying the Liaodong Naval Division, and he is still secretly building ships in Beisha City. When the time comes, the troops will go all the way out of Beiping County, and all the way out of Shandong, and the general trend can be expected.

In addition to being happy, he was also faintly disappointed, why didn't Yang Guang hand over Beiping County to himself, so that even Linyuguan fell into his hands. But such a good thing can only be thought about in a dream. Yang Guang is now willing to hand over such a big power to himself, firstly because of the Turkic situation, and secondly, because Liaodong already has enough local officials and princes in charge, especially the Taishou in Liaodong are basically old veterans who can be civil and martial, not much worse than Chen Kefu.

Next, a lot of things were discussed, including the details of Pei Shiju's Shangchen and the Turkic Second Alliance, and even the choice of Princess Heqin. Later, a large number of officials were appointed and dismissed, but they were not important positions, mainly for the middle and upper level generals of the Praetorian Guard. However, with the previous series of important official transfers, and even above the court, after worshipping the four ministers at one time, everyone was not surprised. As a result, when no one expected it, before the meeting was about to end, Yang Guang suddenly issued an appointment, Bai Nei Shi Shi Lang Yu Shiji as the internal history order, and was officially promoted.

A parliament that is not a big court meeting, but at one time xìng mobilized thousands of civil ministers and military generals, and even worshiped five prime ministers, how can this not surprise the ministers. Su Wei worshiped the left servant of Shangshu Province and shot at Chen Ke and returned to the right servant of Shangshu Province. Li Yuan worships the provincial government, Pei Shiju worships the provincial government, and Yu Shiji worships the internal history of the province. All five of them have the title of participating in the government, and with the official positions of the three provincial governors, the five of them are the real prime ministers.

Seven participated in the government, five of them were prime ministers, only Yu Wenshu and Pei Yun were not only not rewarded, but both transferred to other posts. Yuwen Shu lost his military power and became a subordinate official of Shangshu Province, and Pei Yun also changed from the chief official of Yushitai to the subordinate officials of Chen Kefu and Su Wei. The officials looked at Yu Wenshu and Pei Yun's dead faces, and sighed in their hearts, accompanying the king like a tiger.

Muzi is going to be demolished here, and I'm looking for a house to live in, so there aren't many updates these days, please forgive me for not shooting! My full attendance is gone, and I'll continue to break out when I have time, so ask for a few tickets to comfort me.
