(I strongly recommend that Beixiong will be on the shelves soon. Ah Cao will not say any nonsense. I just want to ask readers who like Beixiong to support the genuine version and subscribe. This is the greatest affirmation for Ah Cao.)
The days in the military camp were the same and there was nothing interesting about them.
And November of the seventh year of Daye was not a special day for Li Po.
But suddenly, a military order was passed down from the Zuo Houwei Mansion, ordering all the troops to guard the camp and not wander around without permission without a military order.
This military order was issued so suddenly that Li Bi became nervous.
However, the news soon spread that Luo Khan from the Western Turks rushed to the Sui Dynasty and had entered the territory of Hebei.
Both Li Bi and Li Po wanted to see what the Turkic Khan looked like, but they did not get such an opportunity.
Later, everyone found out that Luo Khan was obviously a lost dog who was played around by the Sui Dynasty.
Since the Turks split into two parts, the Eastern and Western Turks, the Western Turks have been greatly reduced in strength and oppressed by the Turkic royal court. They have always relied on the Sui Dynasty to survive.
After the Quluo Khan ascended the throne, the internal disputes among the tribes in the east intensified day by day, and the pressure was greatly reduced. Only then did the Western Turks gain a firm foothold in the Western Regions.
As a result, Chuluo Khan often became independent.
However, since the Turks were divided into two parts without bloodshed, the wise men of the Sui Dynasty seemed to have suddenly discovered a relatively clear strategy to control the Hu.?
There is no need to elaborate on the details.
Soon, civil strife broke out in the Western Turks. With the help of the Sui Dynasty, Shekui Khan defeated Chuluo Khan in one fell swoop and became the master of the Western Turks.
Sui Sui has become very skilled in the subsequent methods.
The current situation of Chuluo Khan is similar to that of Qimin Khan who entered the Sui Dynasty. He can just act according to the script without spending too much thought on it.
Therefore, when Chuluo Khan, who was almost a traitor to the Sui Dynasty not long ago, came in embarrassment, he received a very warm reception.
At this time, Chuluo Khan actually became a bargaining chip of the Great Sui Dynasty. If Shekui Khan wanted to grin with the Great Sui Dynasty again, then Chuluo Khan, who had been raised in the Great Sui Dynasty for several years, would return to the Western Turks
, just drive Shegui Khan away, or let the two of them change their positions.
It's a fun game, and it's quite rogue, but the Western Turks can only watch helplessly, wandering around in the Wuzhi Mountain where the emperors and ministers of the Sui Dynasty make the Sui Dynasty look so indestructible.
Chuluo Khan came to Zhuo County in the middle of winter, and was immediately received by the emperor and ministers of the Sui Dynasty in a very formal and official manner.
In the Linshuo Palace, there was a banquet, there was singing and dancing, and the emperor Yang Guang personally gave him wine and food to express his comfort.
Chuluo Khan was also "crying with gratitude".
Finally, the former Khan was told that he could stay in the Sui Dynasty.
The tribesmen he brought were all placed in Loufan County.
In fact, Chuluo Khan's army had been completely defeated, and the remaining defeated troops traveled a long distance to the Sui Dynasty.
In fact, there are only some relatives of Chuluo Khan left, and their number is not large, only two to three thousand people.
Excluding women and children, there were only a few hundred warriors capable of fighting.
It has been crippled by the Sui Dynasty, and its remaining value is only his title as the Khan of the Western Turks.
Da Sui expressed that he wanted to continue playing, but Chuluo Khan had no choice but to continue playing with him with tears in his eyes. He had no choice at all.
Therefore, Chuluo Khan took a few hundred guards and stayed in Zhuojun, preparing to follow the army in the northern expedition to Liaodong.
This is to declare his authority. The Sui Emperor wanted to put the most powerful side of the Sui Dynasty in front of Chuluo Khan, so that he could completely surrender to the majesty of the Sui Dynasty like Qimin Khan.
In fact, Chuluo Khan has already made such preparations.
The overwhelming military camps and flags stationed in Zhuojun had made him mentally and psychologically prepared.
He also wanted to make some efforts during the battle in Liaodong to let Sui Emperor Yang Guang see his loyalty.
Unfortunately, what they didn't know was that this journey was not that wonderful.
Of course, this is undoubtedly a happy event. The Western Region, which was a little turbulent at first, has stabilized again. The emperor is intoxicated by the taste of defeating the enemy without fighting.
He also regarded this as God's favor to the Sui Dynasty, thinking that God was doing Yang Guangzhuang for him.
In fact, he should think about it the other way around. If a guy like Chuluo Khan, who has lost all his fortune, stays with him, will his bad luck be transmitted to him?
But Sui Emperor Yang Guang said that he was a man of faith, a proud man of heaven, and should be loved by heaven.
Therefore, during the heavy snowfall, many Taoist priests and monks gathered in Linshuo Palace to open altars and pray for the Sui Emperor and the soldiers of the Northern Expedition.
At the same time, this is almost a ritual of offering sacrifices to the heaven before using weapons.
It was such a grand ceremony that even Li Bi had to take a whole battalion of soldiers and freeze in the cold wind for more than half a day.
This also satisfied Li Po's curiosity, and he watched the whole process from a distance.
Just like people watching the military parade later, Li Po felt that he had gained a lot and had a quite intuitive impression of the power of the Sui Dynasty.
That's right, the Emperor is too far away to see clearly what he looks like.
The clothes the courtiers and generals wear are very nice, but they don’t know who they are.
Furthermore, if the army goes out to fight and slaughters some cattle and sheep as sacrifices, how can God be satisfied?
Well, if some Khan from the Western Turks is pushed out and his head is cut off... then the effect of a noble head falling off will definitely be much better than that of cattle and sheep.
Li Po guessed correctly again, God was obviously not satisfied with these sacrifices.
So, just when the army gathered in Zhuojun, Hebei, waiting for danger, and Luo Khan from the Western Turks also came to join in the fun, chaos broke out in Shandong, just around the corner.
Wang Bu, a native of Qi County in Shandong Province, who called himself Zhi Shilang, took the lead in raising the flag of anti-Sui uprising.
This Shandong hero, as the first person to eat crabs, actually does not have much ambition. The song he composed about wandering to Liaodong is very smooth to listen to, but in fact, the whole poem also reveals the thought of having no ambition.
Call yourself Chishiro. He didn't become a monk, but he gathered a crowd at the foot of Mount Tai and became the King of Xiaoyao Mountain.
However, Shandong people really can’t survive.
Labor service and taxes are far beyond what the people of Shandong can bear.
According to legend, for every two people in a Shandong household, one person must be serving as a servant. Most of the fields are deserted, but they still have to pay ten times or even dozens of times the taxes to the government in addition to previous years.
The cruelty of the pressure and oppression would be unimaginable if one had not been there in person.
It is indeed reasonable for the Shandong people to rebel first, that is, the army is stationed in Zhuojun, Hebei. Otherwise, the Hebei people, whose situation is not much better than the Shandong people, will not fall behind the Shandong people.
.
With the spread of the song "Wuxiang Liaodong", the whole of Shandong was like a frying pan from Mars, which suddenly caught fire.
