Chapter 593: Convincing to Withdraw from the Alliance
Haza's eyes were full of brilliance, he really didn't expect that unconsciously, Zhao Junxian would have the same position as him. In this way, he can save a lot of effort.
The king of Khan lowered his head and thought, yes, the clansmen are slack, anyway, they just want to survive and survive the winter in peace. Now that they can live by shepherding sheep and horses, they don't want to fight with their lives anymore. But he didn't have much anger, he always knew that his capital was his subjects, forcing his people to fight bravely and skillfully to win the admiration of the Turkic king? Bullshit. Without these Khitan warriors, the Turkic king would not even look at him.
It is difficult for any group to have only one voice, and the Khitan are no exception.
Da Ke, who was standing on the opposite side, saw that the situation was not good, and immediately stood up and said, "Prince Xian said so much, because he was afraid that the allies would fight again, and the Great Zhou would be damaged, right?" But it's no wonder that Prince Xian grew up in Da Zhou after all, and it is understandable that he has a strong sense of belonging to Da Zhou. But you can't ignore the interests of the Khitans! ”
Zhao Junxian's background is actually a little embarrassing, whether it is in Khitan or Da Zhou, it is respectable but fearful.
This is a heart-wrenching statement! Zhao Junxian was annoyed, and his eyes flashed with a gloomy light.
"King Khan, if we are not satisfied with the distribution of benefits, we can discuss with the Turks, presumably they will consider our opinions on the premise of not going too far. The most important reason why I oppose withdrawing from the Allied forces is that now our Allied forces are in a state of collapse, and if our Allied forces can defeat a few big cities north of the Great Zhou, we may not be able to ask the Turks for one or two big cities close to the steppe. Like what
The city is a big city with fertile land, and then our Khitan people will no longer have to be as displaced as they are now, so that they can settle down and reproduce with peace of mind. ”
The words of the reach made several people present very excited, although the grassland is good, but they are all old, yearning for a stable life.
“...... King Khan, his subordinates are in favor of withdrawing troops, even if we follow the Turks to win the Great Zhou, so what? The Turks are not generous, and they are not trustworthy. Following the Turks, we can drink a mouthful of soup, but if we take advantage of the fire to rob and eat an extra piece of meat, after the situation stabilizes, the Turks will make trouble for us and let us spit out the benefits of eating more. "Haza exerted his strength and tried his best to persuade the Khan to withdraw his troops.
Not to mention, it really did it with the domineering nature of the Turks.
Haza's words calmed down the few people who were excited just now.
"Haza, you're a heart-wrenching word! What is your intention in slandering the allies like this? "Among the subordinates of the Khitan king, since there is Hazha, who was pro-Great Zhou and was bought by Shen Dongli, there are naturally people who stand on the side of the Turks, and the one who tried his best to promote the Khitan to join the Turkic alliances.
"The last general will really consider it from the perspective of the interests of the Khitan people, Da, who doesn't know that you and the Turkic general Echa are very close! The Turkic country has a criminal record, do you dare to guarantee with your life that they will not deal with our Khitan afterwards? Haza replied with a proud face.
Regarding the disrespect for the Turks in the Hazha language, the Khitan king said a word of caution lightly.
King Khan's attitude was obviously biased towards Haza Zhao Junxian, and he was in a hurry, "King Khan, don't do it." Retreat at this time, not to mention that the profit agreement that had been negotiated with the Turkic Ministry at the beginning will be invalidated, I am afraid that our Khitan will still be hated by the Turkic Department, and when they finish cleaning up the Great Zhou, they will definitely have to settle accounts with us when they turn around. And if they withdraw now, they won't even be able to drink soup, right? ”
"King Khan, Haza has to be guarded."
A smile crossed Zhao Junxian's eyes, "I don't know if you have heard of such a sentence, triangle is the most stable relationship." ”
"One more point, don't forget, the Turkic tribe is ferocious, and the Turks are not as easy to bully as the Great Zhou. King Khan, we don't have the strength to compete with the Turks now, do we have to sit back and watch the Turks grow bigger? And then help it clean up the Great Zhou, and then go back to unify the tribes in the north? ”
The Khitan king's pupils shrank when he heard this, yes, the Turks are really ambitious, and it is not impossible for his nephew. If you want not to be annexed, you can't go on like this.
"And now that the Turks are strong, there is no one who is most worried than Da Zhou. As long as we show favor to Da Zhou and ask for some benefits as a condition for withdrawing troops, Da Zhou will probably agree. ”
"If we tear up the covenant privately, the Turks will be angry, right?" This is worrying conservatives.
"The current situation is undecided, and the Turks have a big chance of winning, but Da Zhou has the addition of the special commission of the Southern Army and has stood in decline. Nowadays, the Turks account for more than five, our Khitan accounts for one, and the Great Zhou accounts for three to four. Even if the Turkic king is angry, he does not dare to send it to us, at most he will settle accounts after the autumn. But anger is anger, could it be that our Khitan is still a subordinate tribe of his Turks, and we must advance and retreat together from beginning to end? Zhao Junxian said disdainfully.
"Prince Xian is right, we Khitan also have our own interests to take into account."
"King Khan, every winter is the saddest day for our Khitan tribe, especially the severe cold weather once every few years, how to ensure that the clan survives the winter safely has always been the most headache for King Khan and the elders. Otherwise, we wouldn't have started a war every time we couldn't get through it. But if we help the Turks win a large battle, will the benefits be enough for us to cope with the cold winter for the next many years? After the defeated city was occupied by the Turks, it completely cut off the passage between us and the Great Zhou, what should we do when the winter is sad in the future? The Turks are no better than the Great Zhou. ”
"As for the general's office, ask the Turks for one or two cities, our strength is a brave and warlike cavalry, and the combat power is in the grassland and the wilderness, if you enter the city, it will be limited, and the combat power will be greatly reduced. After all, our strength is still not strong enough to keep the results of big battles such as cities. Under this premise, the Khitan people can only wait for their survival and development. At the same time, drag them and let the Turks and the Great Zhou fight a war of attrition. Whether we sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, or use the Great Zhou as the Khitan's spare granary, it is time to withdraw from the allies. ”
The audience was quiet, and Zhao Junxian analyzed the situation very well, especially on how the Khitan would deal with itself under the strong force of the Turks in the future, and gave instructive opinions.
Several old marquis glanced at each other, and they all made a decision in their hearts to support Zhao Junxian as the next Khitan Khan king.
Da Da's face turned blue and white, and more people looked at Zhao Junxian differently.
After finishing speaking, Zhao Junxian exhaled lightly, and took in the expressions of the people present, and secretly thought in his heart, the things that his father left for him were really powerful, since he had read those materials, many things were like lifting a pot for empowerment, and he suddenly understood, he had lived in vain for the first twenty years. It's a pity that his father died early, and he was delayed in vain, otherwise his achievements would not have been like this.
