Ashina Simo looked at Li Shan with a wry smile, "If I can agree, I won't refuse..."
No one in the palace was surprised by Ashina Simo's rejection. Speaking of which, although Yu Gushe was the only son of Jieli Khan, he was captured alive by Li Shan twice and his reputation was completely lost. His importance was not as important as Princess Yicheng.
, compared with Empress Xiao and others.
Li Shan waved his sleeves coldly, "That's all!"
"Jieli Khan loves his only son, but my emperor is the lord of the world and the parent of the people, so my heart is no different!"
"That step means..."
"Chuluo Khan and Jieli Khan led troops to invade Hedong several times. In the third year of Wude, Chuluo Khan sent two thousand light cavalry into Bingzhou and plundered thousands of men and women. In the fifth year of Wude, Jieli Khan personally entered
East of the river, tens of thousands of young people were robbed!"
"You can release Yugushe, but your lord needs to release 100,000 plundered people!"
Zhongshu Ling Yang Gongren laughed in a low voice and said: "Those who take the top will get the middle, those who take the middle will get the bottom, and those who take the bottom will get nothing!"
Xiao Yu, the right servant of Shangshu Province, nodded and said, "Huairen is quite clever."
Ashina Simo's eyes moved, and he looked past Li Shan and towards Li Yuan... This condition is very tricky.
After several generations of Khans' management, today's Wuyuan County is far from being as desolate as the Mobei Grassland, and its population density is not weaker than that of the Central Plains County.
In fact, just in terms of the support of the grassland tribes, although Tuli Khan is slightly weaker, the gap is not obvious. However, Jieli Khan can firmly gain the upper hand, largely because he controls a larger population... And this
A considerable part of the population is people from the Central Plains who were brought back from captivity one after another.
Grazing, farming, and building houses, these people can play so many roles that Jieli Khan's soldiers who can be used in war can steadily overwhelm Tuli Khan.
In other words, those people who lived a very miserable life in and around Wuyuan County and were regarded as serfs were an unobvious but important part of Jieli Khan's foundation.
However, Tuli Khan had never led an army to invade Hedong before, and his men had few resources in this area.
Ashina Simo may not be able to sort out a set of relevant ideas, but he has a vague feeling... Li Shan is trying to weaken Jieli Khan's power and make the Turkic internal strife more intense.
Several prime ministers and ministers were silent, and they were all old foxes. When they saw Li Shan coming to the stage, they understood that His Majesty had probably discussed with Li Shan how to extort money.
Well, Chen Shuda also saw Prince Li Jiancheng giving Li Shan a look of well done.
"Shicai Huairen's words are very close to my heart." Li Yuan sighed: "The people are my children, how can I abandon them and ignore them..."
Ashina Simo tentatively said: "Release it to the common people... I'm afraid it will be difficult to raise the number of one hundred thousand."
Li Shan sneered and said: "Wuyuan County is full of people... Jieli Khan's only son, can't he be inferior to the serfs who are everywhere in Wuyuan County?"
"I will send an envoy to report back immediately, but the number is one hundred thousand..." Ashina Simo shook his head and turned to look at Li Yuan.
Li Yuan pretended to ponder for a moment, "It must not be less than 40,000."
Ashina Simo grinned, remembering what Ashina Sheer said to him secretly before leaving.
What did Yu Sheshe say to Li Shan in Mayi? The other party seemed to have a very clear understanding of the situation in Wuyuan County. Forty thousand... was almost exactly the critical point.
When this pole is knocked down, Jieli Khan will definitely become furious, but his vitality will not be seriously damaged. However, the situation with Tuli Khan... will be more subtle.
Of course it was accurate, but it was really not the information provided by Yu Sheshe, but the association rate... This guy followed the wishes of Tuli Khan and revealed almost all the secrets of Wuyuan County to Li Shan.
Princess Yicheng, Empress Xiao, tens of thousands of serfs, horses, and cattle... Li Shan first chose the first place, and the second time he chose the second place, but he was not ready to give up the third place.
"You should know that I want to set up this official to attack Yanmen Pass in the first month of the year and drive the people to attack the city. Where does this come from?"
Faced with Li Shan's question, Ashina Simo was speechless... This is obvious, Yu Gushe is here to cause trouble for you.
"I captured this officer that day. If Brother She'er hadn't led the army to attack, I would have killed him with a thousand knives!" Li Shan stared at Ashina Simo, "In this battle, Daizhou lost many soldiers and generals, and several horses were lost.
thousand……"
Do you want face?
Ashina Simo's face was distorted. He had already heard about the battle report of the Yanmen War. He had beheaded more than three thousand people and captured two thousand horses. Yet you still want to rip them off!
"A gift of a thousand good horses."
"Didn't we have cattle just now?"
Ashina Simo swallowed his anger and said, "Add five hundred cattle!"
Li Shan then gave up and glanced at Li Yuan above... I came up with this myself. Your Majesty, please don't be greedy.
Li Yuan suppressed a smile and said, "Sit down and think about it."
After extorting money, Li Shan quietly retreated behind Princess Pingyang, letting everyone continue to talk nonsense about the friendship between the two countries. Ashina Simo actually didn't ask Gu She to marry the princess, and Li Yuan didn't express his position before Li Shimin stopped him.
After going back... It is common sense for two countries to have good relations and get closer through marriage, but it is just a matter of desire... Isn't this person a bit useless?
On the contrary, it was Li Yuan who intended to grant Ashina Simo the title of County King... which frightened the other party into refusing.
In fact, this year in history, Jieli Khan and Tuli Khan jointly invaded Hedong, and Qin King Li Shimin alienated the two. In the end, the Turks sent an envoy to Chang'an. It was this Ashina Simo, and he was granted peace and obedience by Li Yuan.
Prince of the county.
But now, the situation is completely different, and Ashina Simo naturally does not dare to respond.
After a while, after the official business was discussed, Ashina Simo and all the ministers and ministers all retreated. The former had to quickly send his men back to Wuyuan County to report... Whether the deal can be completed or not, it still depends on Jieli Khan.
mean.
Li Shan quietly followed Princess Pingyang and slipped out... The matter of Tuli Khan's sworn sworn relationship with Li Shimin has not yet been decided, and he really didn't want to stay here.
Li Yuan glanced at Li Shan's back and said with a smile: "Huairen has made another meritorious service today."
"Release 40,000 people..." Li Jiancheng praised: "No wonder people in Daizhou say they have never seen such parents in their lives."
Li Shimin and Li Yuanji didn't say anything. The former was because he had just received the news that Zhang Gongjin was severely scolded by Li Shan, and the latter was naturally because of Princess Yang's mouth.
After hesitating for a while, Li Yuan said softly: "If you return to Yugushe, Jieli will definitely attack this year. If Mayi, Yanmen can't stop it..."
Li Shimin sat there expressionless, still silent.
But Li Jiancheng looked at Li Yuanji, "Sanhu stationed troops in Taiyuan last year to prepare for the Turks, and they can do it this year as well."
Li Yuan was noncommittal and waved his three sons to leave with a smile on his lips.
He had long confirmed that Li Shan was not attached to the King of Qin because Tuli Khan's sworn sworn relationship with the King of Qin... would do more harm than good to Erlang.
You must know that under the current situation, it is impossible for Tuli Khan to enter the capital. If he wants to make a sworn vow, Erlang must go to Daizhou.
But Li Yuan is not sure whether Li Shan is related to the East Palace through Cui Xin... After all, many members of the Cui family in Qinghe are attached to the East Palace.
I can confirm today, no.
If Dalang knew about this, he would definitely ask for an expedition of his own accord. Only the prince's expedition could block Erlang back, and Sanhu did not have such weight.
Li Yuan thought in his heart that he didn't know whether Tuli Khan would agree to his conditions. He calculated the schedule and it was almost delivered.
