Chapter 1447 The important task of the General Consulate
"How do you say this?" Li Xingchen raised his eyebrows.
Tang Zhong said directly: "Now that the Tuyuhun people have retreated, all Yang Jian can rely on are the Tiele people on the grassland and Yu Wenxian. Not to mention how much trust can be born between Yang Jian and Yu Wenxian because of their close relationship.
Is it just that this Tiele man will really fight for Yang Jian regardless of it?"
After a pause, Tang Zhong continued: "If Yang Jian wants to gain the trust of the Tiele people and get help, he must make some sacrifices. What Yang Jian can still use now is probably a Loop. But the Loop's
All the food has fallen into Yang Jian's hands, will the Tiele people be inclined to want an empty river?"
The answer is obvious.
The Tiele people are typical grassland nomads. They lack basic planting technology, and naturally they are not inclined to obtain a piece of farmland and cultivate it themselves.
Yang Jian will definitely not give Han slaves to the Tiele people who can farm, so these actually need to be plundered by the Tiele people in subsequent battles. Therefore, even if Yang Jian promises the Hetao to the Tiele people, he will not give them to the Tiele people.
That being said, the price/performance ratio is not that great.
I wonder if the Tiele people have the guts to provoke a big man for a Loop?
"And if we go to recruit Tiele first, between the Han Dynasty and Yang Jian, I think it will be difficult for the Tiele people to choose the latter." Tang Zhong said immediately.
The Tiele people are no better than the murderous Turks or the Rouran people before them. As a low-status people on the grassland, they have just achieved "turning themselves out of serfs and singing songs", and directly put the fate of the entire nation in the southward attack.
Obviously, it is not as good as obeying the orders of the big man.
The same was true for the Tiele people in history. Although the Xueyantuo tribe and the Qi tribe were already strong enough, they finally chose to join the Tang Dynasty and eventually solved the Turks with the Tang Dynasty. After the Qi tribe integrated into the Tang Dynasty, they still
With the emergence of famous generals such as Chehori, the Tiele people can be regarded as the first foreign nation to be accommodated in the Tang Dynasty as a tolerant and huge empire.
Tang Zhong didn't know this period of history, but Li Xingchen knew it.
Therefore, he knew that Tang Zhong's judgment was actually tenable.
The question is, how can the big man get the Tiele people to come over?
"Your Majesty, I believe that Xu Tiele is the lord of Monan, and I allow the Tiele people to move south, and even directly enter our Han Dynasty, so that the Tiele people can fully help." Yang Su also said at this time, "Tiele people
It has been a vassal for a long time, and now it is a mess. It lacks a hero who can stand up and integrate the entire tribe into one. Therefore, when various large and small tribes are not convinced by each other, they are not willing to introduce the power of the Han to protect their own tribes."
Li Xingchen nodded slightly. Small tribes have their own way of survival. They do not expect to dominate the entire tribe, but hope to seek their own survival by relying on larger tribes. Compared with the Xue Yantuo tribe or the Qi tribe,
The big Han is obviously more powerful. As for the two relatively large tribes, the Xueyantuo tribe and the Qi tribe, instead of attacking each other and losing both sides, it is better to seek to introduce external forces to quickly overwhelm each other.
Of course, for the big man, by winning over one side, attacking the other, and then winning over the hearts of the small tribes, he could quickly devour the entire Tiele people.
With the experience of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, Li Xingchen was not afraid.
"This is the case with the Tiele people. There is no need to be stingy with gifts. As long as we can win over the Tiele people, half of the situation in the north can be solved!" Li Xingchen also breathed a sigh of relief, "But what should we do with Yu Wenxian?
"
Yu Wenxian was not from Tiele, he just wanted to put the big man to death.
How can we ensure that Yu Wenxian will not interfere later?
After all, for him, it seemed to be a good choice to send a group of cavalry to reinforce Yang Jian, thereby delaying Li Xinchen's main force heading north.
"If Yu Wenxian sends out soldiers and horses, it will definitely not be silent. The cavalry will move across the border with great force. Once he makes a move, we will definitely notice it." Yang Su said in a deep voice, "So as long as Yu Wenxian moves, we will
If we can catch him, then won’t Yu Wenxian be afraid of being blamed for tearing up the treaty?”
After a pause, Yang Su continued: "And since Yu Wenxian dares to use his trump card to support Yang Jian, how will he meet our challenge once an all-out war begins?"
"Then what if Yu Wenxian still moves?" Li Xingchen said directly.
What Yang Su said was just the possibility that Yu Wenxian did not dare to take action easily, but who can guarantee that Yu Wenxian really did not dare to take action? After all, he was not a timid person, and it was more important for him to rely on Yang Jian to attack Li Xingchen.
is a good choice.
Tang Zhong also followed up and said: "I thought we should be prepared for a rainy day. Since Yu Wenxian dared to support Yang Jian, it means that he did not feel the pressure on his front line, so it is better to let our troops in Huayin and Lianghuai
Carry out large-scale mobilization and drills to show off the might of our Han army. As the emperor, your Majesty, since you are in Chang'an, can also review the Huayin camp nearby, especially our Han Dynasty's new firearms, which Yu Wenxian has already avoided. If he can
Its power is once again demonstrated during the review, and Yu Wenxian may have to weigh the importance."
Li Xingchen clapped his hands: "Wonderful!"
Yes, why did I forget this time?
If you want to deter the enemy, isn't military parade a very good way?
Not to mention that later countries often used military parades during important festivals as a means to promote national prestige and inspire people. Even during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, emperors often summoned troops and envoys from all parties to show their powerful armies to the surrounding vassal states.
"But the big fanfare here is one thing," Li Xingchen added, "the key is to inform Yu Wenxian of our attitude. The general office should be responsible for this matter, especially to contact the various aristocratic families in Yu Wenxian's small court.
, it is best for them to come forward to clarify their interests to Yu Wenxian and prevent Yu Wenxian from using troops. At the same time, the white robes can wait for opportunities to incite riots around Jinyang, and our troops stationed in Yinzhou, Yanzhou and other places in Hexi can also move to the banks of the river and conduct training.
, in order to form a deterrent to Jinyang, so that Yu Wenchun does not dare to act rashly."
"I obey the decree!" All civil and military officials agreed together.
"Winter is coming soon. All matters must be implemented as soon as possible. Tell Pei Zilie that we will arrive at the south of the Hetao within ten days." Li Xingchen said immediately, "I don't want to see my Han soldiers still there on Yuan Day.
In the north, we eat ice and sleep in snow.”
Of course, this is only one level. On another level, what the Han Dynasty needs is to recuperate and recuperate. The army is marching all the way north to work on an expedition. Even if this is something that has to be done, it will put a lot of pressure on the Han Dynasty's finances.
