Although Yuan Luo knows how to see the wind and steer the rudder, others are also quick to react. With the arrival of Lu Bu in Beijing, the people of Chang'an realized that Tang Gong's outing was not a simple patrol, but an attack on the Turks and a great victory, and the crowd immediately boiled.

Because the rise of the Turks is not very old, so the public does not know much about it, and the only thing that impresses them is that in the old years, the Turks had forced the imperial court to hand over the remnants of Rouran who had come to defect, and killed all these people directly outside the gate of Chang'an.

This incident made the people of Chang'an deeply feel the arrogance and brutality of the Turks, even after a long time after the incident, they were still worried that the Turks would come to Chang'an directly one day, and they also slaughtered the people of Chang'an like the Rouran people.

Because of this fear in the hearts of the people, the Turks are rarely mentioned in daily life, but when they do not want to hear about the Turks again, the Turks have become part of Tang Gongxuanhe's military exploits. It turned out that Hu Bu, who was invincible in this impression, was as vulnerable as other enemies after encountering Tang Gong!

Therefore, the people in the city also rushed to tell each other, once again strengthening the stereotype that Tang Gong was invincible, and sighed that as long as Tang Gong defended his home and country, there would be no strong enemy in the world that could threaten the safety of Guanzhong!

Compared with the optimistic celebration of the people, the dignitaries and magnates felt richer when they learned of this war report. Especially those Yuan Wei clans who were still discussing the struggle for power in Lishan before, they were even more remorseful at this time.

Previously, when Tang Gong entered the court to settle the chaos, he did not exert great torture, which made them feel that Tang Gong seemed to be afraid of personnel and did not dare to do it to the fullest. But this war outside the country today made them realize that Tang Gong really did not regard some unharmonious personnel in the country as a problem that needed to be dealt with seriously, and once he thought that the personnel needed to be disposed of, both inside and outside would inevitably suffer severe blows!

Therefore, their behavior of colluding behind their backs and trying to hide from Tang Gong and seek power is tantamount to making the originally minor problems serious, forcing Tang Gong to deal with them seriously.

Even the Turkic Khan, who was far away outside the fortress and had a huge army under his command, was captured and killed for befriending Tang Gong, how could these idle clans who had been in Gyeonggi for a long time have the confidence to feel that Tang Gong needed to bend to their wishes?

People's thoughts are often swayed by emotions, and when certain desires are too strong, it is easy to fall into a kind of wishful thinking. And when he came back to his senses, even he didn't understand why he had such a stupid idea at that time.

However, Tang Gong's triumphant division and brigade had already arrived in Jingzhou, and they were about to return to Chang'an in a few days, and there was no time for them to understand and digest it, so they had to make remedies and redeem them as soon as possible before Tang Gong returned to Beijing.

So these people also left behind their previous agreement to enter the palace together, and began to remedy it according to their own ideas, or to find a way out of the relationship, hoping to be able to get a light sentence, or thinking about reporting and exposing it, and wanting to make meritorious contributions. There are some people with strong action, and they directly ordered the slaves to prepare a batch of supplies for the army, and then went to Weibei to meet the triumphant division of Tang Gong.

When these people did not meet in the imperial city, but saw each other at the Weiqiao outside Chang'an City, the scene inevitably became a little awkward, and they were speechless to each other, but they turned their faces away, and then they urged the house slaves who were driving the car to go quickly.

Li Tai stayed in Jingzhou for two days, and arranged for Li Yunxin to lead a team of soldiers to transfer some of the cattle and horses captured in this battle to Longyou through Liantun Mountain. On the one hand, it was difficult for Guanzhong to absorb so many cattle, horses and livestock for a while, and on the other hand, it was also to strengthen the armament of Longyou.

Shi Ning, the new governor of Liangzhou, did not enter the Hajj at the beginning of the year because of the remoteness of the station, but now he also came to meet him.

"After a long few years, the general's demeanor is still the same, and he has not been urged by the wind and sand outside Longwai, and the reunion of old friends is gratifying!"

Li Tai greeted and entertained Shi Ning in the barracks, and when he saw him marching in, he stepped forward to support Shi Ning's shoulders and said with a smile before he could bend over and salute.

After hearing this, Shi Ning lowered his head and replied: "Tang Gong's demeanor is better than in the past, and the last general often regrets that he is far away, and he has no chance to be driven by orders from Tang Gong and others with An Lu Gong and others. There is no merit to dedicate Tang Gong, and Tang Gong will be even more responsible, sincerely afraid, and grateful!"

While talking, Li Tai welcomed Shi Ning into the account, and invited Yang Zhong and other Duguxin's old subordinates to accompany them, and they inevitably talked about the old things with each other, and when they talked about Duguxin's fate, they couldn't help but feel nostalgic.

Although Li Tai had already accumulated a strong personnel foundation before entering the ruling dynasty, he was no longer limited to Dugu Xin's sharing of his connections. But he also has to admit that the old ministry left by his father-in-law is also of great help to him. These people are not only extremely capable, but because of Duguxin, Li Tai naturally has a relatively solid foundation of trust with them.

Take Shi Ning as an example, if it weren't for his relationship with Duguxin, after Li Tai took power, I am afraid that he would not be assured to continue to appoint him to Longyou. And wanting to readjust the military and political situation on the right side of Longyou will undoubtedly distract Li Tai's energy and personnel resources.

However, although Longyou is geographically of great significance to Guanzhong, its personnel adjustment is not the highest priority for the Western Wei regime, so having a candidate like Shi Ning to stabilize and transition is more important for the progress and development of the current situation.

Skipping these old topics, Li Tai listened to Shi Ning in detail about the military and political changes in Longyou in recent years, and on the whole, it can be said that it is stable and improving.

After all, as early as the Yuwentai period, Longyou is one of the key areas of the overlord, Yuwendao has been in Longyou for many years, although his people have not made great achievements, but the local governance and military construction are very effective, and these personnel bases are now inherited by the new overlord and the Liangzhou governor's office.

At present, the problem of Qiang riots on the right side of Longyou has been greatly improved, and many Qiang tribes have also come under the control of local state and county governments. One of the more serious problems in terms of external troubles is Tuyuhun's harassment of the border.

Tuyuhun was originally a member of the Murong Xianbei Department in eastern Liaodong, and later migrated thousands of miles to Hexi, and since then it has taken root in the Qinghai region. The gradual growth of its tribe was also related to the turbulent situation in the Guanlong region, in addition to the continuous plundering of Longyou, Tuyuhun also benefited greatly by playing an important role in the Silk Road trade, especially the Silk Road trade in the central Shu region of the Southern Dynasties could only be completed through Tuyuhun.

It's just that with the gradual recovery of the Western Wei Dynasty and the strengthening of its control over Longyou Hexi, coupled with the successive incorporation of Longnan and Bashu into control, the good days of Tuyuhun sitting on the land and distributing profits are gone.

The original interests were damaged, and naturally they had to make up for it from elsewhere, so Tuyuhun intensified his plundering of Longyou, which could not only obtain benefits, but also disrupt the Silk Road trade.

Speaking of this, Shi Ning was also quite worried. Tuyuhun was originally the head snake in Qinghai, with an obvious home advantage, and the previous Liangzhou was not the military center of Longyou, even if he had any idea of fighting Tuyuhun, he was trapped by the lack of his own strength and was difficult to complete alone.

In fact, the Turks originally planned to attack Tuyuhun, and when the Turkic Mengyehu came to Chang'an, he proposed that the Western Wei Dynasty cooperate in the fight against Tuyuhun, because the disturbance of Tuyuhun was also a great interference to the grassland trade. But now the Turkic Khans have been cut down by Li Tai, and although Li Tai has proposed to let the Turks coordinate their troops, it is still unknown whether Kutou will be able to take power smoothly after returning to Jinshan, and other things are also full of uncertainty.

Speaking of this war with the Turks and the subsequent changes in the Turkic situation, Shi Ning also has his own opinions. Liangzhou, where he is located, has a lot of interaction with the Turks, so he also has a good understanding of the internal situation of the Turks.

Shi Ning agreed with Tang Gong's practice of collecting and beheading the wooden pole Khan and supporting the head of the land, but he also proposed that it should be more difficult to control the head of the land if he wants to completely take power.

As early as the establishment of the Turkic Khanate by Ashina Tumen, his younger brother Mur Dianmi led his troops to the west to develop his power in the Western Regions. Now, with the expansion of the power of the Western Turkic Road, the autonomy is getting stronger and stronger, and even the original wooden pole Khan's binding force on this uncle's room is getting worse and worse, and he may be even more powerless to control the land.

The reason for the division of the Eastern and Western Turks in history can actually be traced back to the separation between Ashina Tumen and Muridianmi. From the very beginning, the western expeditionary forces led by the Mur Dianmi were independent of the Khan's order, and coupled with the military strikes and diplomatic means of the Sui Dynasty, it was inevitable that they would split.

After listening to Shi Ning's explanation, Li Tai was right

I didn't think about it. At present, even if he has the idea of splitting the Turks, it is difficult to implement it due to his own strength, and he can't even connect with the ancestor of the Western Turks, let alone lead the division of the Turks. But if the Turks fall apart because of the power struggle, this is of course what he would like to see.

After the adjustment of the military and political structure on the Longyou front, Shi Ning, the governor of Liangzhou, was able to dispatch more personnel resources, so Li Tai tried to carry out some military counterattacks and attacks on Tuyuhun. At the time of separation, Shi Ning invited his eldest son Shi Xiong and second son Shi Xiang to be Li Tai's cronies.

Li Tai did not refuse this, he had already intended to expand the scale of his personal army, and a number of heroes and old sons were also in the scope of recruitment.

After Shi Ning said goodbye and returned to the town, Li Tai also set off to continue to Chang'an, and on the way, he encountered several groups of people who rushed from Beijing to greet him. There were both envoys sent by the imperial court to greet them, as well as private people who came to meet them. And after hearing these people march separately, Li Tai realized that there was such a hidden matter not long ago.
