Chapter XXVI National Union
Ximen Qing knew that Tubo was secretly conspiring, and there was a shadow of Western Xia, and he was not angry at Li Qianshun's two-faced approach, although the two countries had concluded an armistice agreement, but they could only put an end to the conflict on the surface, and stabbed the knife in the back to add to the blockage, which was justified in diplomacy.
"Okay!" Ximen Qing looked at the direction of Xingqing Mansion in Xixia, and made a decision in his heart, "Since you Li Qianshun want to play, then let's play big!" It will take a lot of effort for me to appease Tubo, but don't want to stay out of it in Xixia! ”
You must know that after the collapse of the Tibetan regime, not all the Tubo ethnic groups that moved eastward were attached to the Central Plains, and many Tibetan tribes also entered the Western Xia. It is bounded by Liupan Mountain and Longshan Mountain, and the east and north are the residences of Western Xia Tubo, and the south and west are the residences of Northwest Tubo.
The Tubo in the Xixia Kingdom, once centered on Xiliangfu, established a powerful Liugu tribal alliance, and united with the Song Dynasty, and attacked and contained the party members who had not yet established the country at that time, until June of the eighth year of Dazhong Xiangfu of the Song Dynasty (1015), Xiliangfu was broken by Li Deming, the leader of the party at that time, and the Tubo Liugu Alliance was declared extinct.
But it was only the regime that perished, and the Tubo people still lived in that land, and they had suffered from the exploitation and oppression of the Western Xia for a hundred years, and they were also the same as the northwest Tubo that had suffered from the exploitation and oppression of the Song Dynasty.
Ximen Qing sent a secret envoy - the veteran general planted under the Dao, there were many Tibetan soldiers and generals, and selected the brave and loyal, shrewd and fickle among them, and gave them a strategy, thinking that they were envoys - these people secretly infiltrated the border of Western Xia, went to Liangzhou, and contacted the local Tubo people.
Li Qianshun and Cha Ge Baimi were sparse, they originally wanted to instigate the rebellion in Tibet, but they forgot that their own land also lived in the Tubo tribes, and the chaos together was like a spark that could ignite the plains, how could the Western Xia be spared?
The Tubo tribes in the northwest, who were in close contact, suddenly got an earth-shattering news - Ximenqing, the leader of the Han ** who overthrew the Zhao and Song dynasties and killed Cai Jing, Tong Guan and other traitors, issued an order to preside over a grand national assembly in the northwest, and invited the chiefs of the Tubo tribes to the meeting to discuss the establishment of the Tubo Autonomous Region, select a new Zampu, govern Tubo with Tubo, and realize the second rejuvenation and take-off of the Tubo nation.
As soon as this news came out, the Tibetan tribes were shaken, and they traveled back and forth these days, contacting everywhere, in order to take advantage of the newly broken shackles of Zhao and Song Dynasty bound to their bodies, and rise up together to revive Tubo? But in order to do this, according to the envoy of the Western Xia, it is necessary to be the enemy of Ximenqing, the new ruler of the Central Plains - but if the news of this Tubo Autonomous Region is true, then Ximenqing is not only not an enemy of the Tibetan tribes, but a friend of the Tibetan tribes!
The secret envoys of the Western Xia, who were mixed among the Tibetan tribes, panicked and spared no effort to slander this as a trick of Ximenqing, intending to gather and annihilate the various tribes of Tubo in the name of the conference.
At this time, Ximen Qing also sent the Tibetan soldiers under the Daoist Division, these Tibetan soldiers were born in various tribes, and their blood was thicker than water. Today, these Tibetan soldiers were indeed brought in by them, but all of them spoke in unison - proving Ximenqing's sincerity in wanting to establish the Tubo Autonomous Region.
The hesitant chiefs of the Tibetan tribes gathered together to discuss how to deal with it. At the rally, a fierce conflict broke out between the envoys of Ximenqing and the spies of Western Xia in order to achieve their respective goals. Everyone first had a war of words, and when they were almost exhausted, suddenly a smart man from the soldiers came to say-"Have you forgotten how Pan Luozhi died back then?" ”
Pan Luozhi was an outstanding leader of the Six Grain Alliance in Tubo, Xiliang Province, representing the heyday of the Six Grain Alliance, and his killing was a turning point in the Six Valley Alliance's prosperity and decline. Pan Luozhi has repeatedly defeated the party, and even the ancestor of Western Xia, Li Jiqian, died in his hands. Li Jiqian's son Li Deming inherited his father's will, and he never forgot the defeat of Liangzhou, so he set up a counter-plot - among the party members, Mi Bang and Ri Ji Luo Dan are Li Jiqian's cronies, and they are from the same origin as the dragon clan, the strong clan in the Liugu tribe. Li Deming instructed the two clans to openly rebel against the Dragon Clan, and took the opportunity to carry out the work of division and disintegration within the Dragon Clan. There are thirteen dragons, and in a short period of time, six of them have secretly attached themselves to the mysterious order. After hearing the news, the Pan Luo branch of the unknown details led more than 100 horsemen to rush to the dragon clan to discuss the attack.
As soon as the leader died, the Six Valleys Alliance collapsed, Pan Luozhi's younger brother Duo Governor succeeded as the leader of the tribe, although he struggled to resist the invasion of Western Xia, but finally unable to return to the sky, in June of the eighth year of Dazhong Xiangfu (1015), Li Deming sent the general Su Shouxin to go out on an expedition to capture Xiliang Mansion in one fell swoop, and the Duo Governor defected to the leader of the Hehuang Tubo Department in the Song Dynasty, and the Six Valleys Tubo Alliance perished.
Today, among the Tubo tribes in the northwest, there are many descendants of the Six Valleys Alliance, and the "death of Pan Luozhi" is re-titled by the old saying, which suddenly evokes the painful memories of all the Tubo people. These party dogs have always been ill-intentioned, if they lead them by the nose and are sold, they have to help them count the money!
So with a coax, the secret envoys of Western Xia who sowed discord were all expelled from the assembly with their noses cut off. As soon as the villain is gone, the next agenda will be doubly happy - the soldiers sent by Ximenqing told all the deeds of Ximenqing's life, and all the Tibetan tribes praised him as a person, so they recommended some elders who were sensible and not afraid of death, and went to see Ximenqing to explore his reality.
These veterans who crossed the river were warmly welcomed by Ximenqing, and under the warm reception of Ximenqing, these envoys repeatedly confirmed Ximenqing's sincerity in establishing the Tubo Autonomous Region.
The establishment of the Tubo Autonomous Region was indeed based on Ximenqing's sincerity. Judging from the map, the Qinfeng Road on the western border is long and narrow, and it is a place where enemies are attacked on all sides, and if the ethnic relations with Tibet are intensified, then there will be enemies on all sides, and the Western Xia will not be able to hold it anyway if it takes advantage of the time. Not to mention anything else, the supply line alone is too long, Ximenqing can't build cars, and he doesn't have time to build roads, so he can be worn to death by logistics alone.
The Central Plains has just been pacified, and the north will be devoured by the Jin State, and if we cannot see clearly the key point of the strategic center of gravity in the north and not in the west, and blindly entangle ourselves in gaining land, we will inevitably lose both people and land in the future.
Therefore, Ximenqing is willing to give up power. He not only wants to establish the Tibetan Autonomous Region, but also the Chinese Federation! He wants to strive to build a four-nation federation composed of Liangshan in the Central Plains, Mingjiao in Jiangnan, Tubo in the Northwest, and Dangxiang Xixia in this national parliament! Even if there will be intrigues, as long as there is this big framework, many things in the future will be easy to do.
The ideal is beautiful, but the road is tortuous, Ximenqing doesn't know how far he can go, but he only knows that he must work hard, and the most important thing now is to impress these Tibetan representatives with sincerity.
Sincerity is always impressive, but sincerity alone is not enough. So Ximenqing arranged for the Tubo elders to watch the drills of the Liangshan Mingjiao coalition army - strong armor soldiers, strong bows and crossbows, stone artillery firearms, and serial iron cavalry - the Tubo elders all changed color - Ximenqing has such strength, if the Tubo tribal alliance openly raises troops to resist, I am afraid that under the river of blood, there will be no more seeds!
Of course, Ximenqing will not be easy to fight, but the biggest victims are still the Tibetans.
Feeling Ximenqing's sincerity and fearing Ximenqing's strength, the Tibetan elders took their leave, returned to their tribes, conveyed Ximenqing's goodwill and strength to the chiefs, and put forward their own opinions - this national parliament is very likely to be an opportunity for the peaceful rise of the declining Tibetan tribes, and should be seized!
The elders also conveyed Ximenqing's proposal - the choice of the venue of the first national assembly should be decided by the tribal chiefs, and if Ximenqing really wanted to choose a place to set up a trap, it would not be so easy to wipe out all the Tibetan leaders who attended the meeting, and then divide and break them.
The tribal chiefs were still hesitant, and everyone continued to assemble, and even the Tubo tribe in Western Xia secretly sent envoys to attend the meeting after hearing the news.
When the Tibetan tribes were in full swing discussing "whether the national parliament is a crisis or a turning point", guests came to Ximenqing's gate.
This is a man in black, covered from head to toe in a long cloak, which looks very mysterious. Although it looks like he is going to the dust, it does not give people a feeling of embarrassment, but because of his tiger's back and bear waist of more than 1.8 meters, it brings a sense of oppression.
When the man in black came to the camp gate, he didn't speak, but handed over a simple slip of paper with only four words written on it - "The old man asks to see"!
Such a person is really suspicious, and he is simply a natural assassin seedling. But Ximen Qingyi is bold, and there are many talents in the Liangshan camp, and he is not afraid of those ghosts and ghosts in the dark. What's more, not long ago, these soldiers had seen it with their own eyes - a mysterious black-clothed ** swaggered in and out of the boss's camp with Yan Qing and Zhi Xiaoqing, if this one today is really Ximenqing's old man, then it is not something that these soldiers can afford to slack!
So, the soldiers guarding Yuanmen flew to Ximen Qing. Ximenqing flipped through the slip and looked at it for a long time - why is this trace not familiar at all? I can't help but discount this so-called "old man" from my heart.
Jiao Ting asked: "Third brother, this old man, do you see it?" ”
Ximen Qing nodded, and Jiao Ting naturally arranged the guards. After a while, the pawn brought the man in black into the tent, and the man in black quietly looked at Ximenqing and nodded slightly, but he was not polite.
After waiting for a long time, Ximenqing finally asked, "But I don't know who your Excellency is?" ”
The man in black slowly stretched out his hand, lifted the cloak on his head, and with an "oops" sound, everyone in the tent jumped up - "It turned out to be you!" "This is exactly what it is:
Diligence is only for Pingxi's edict, but hard work seeks to settle the southern map. Know who it is, and listen to the next breakdown.
