When the mighty envoys of the Qin State arrived at the Yuezhi King's tent, it indeed caused quite a stir. This was the first time for most of the Yuezhi people to come into contact with the Qin State. The Qin State was completely different from the Yuezhi people.
, when the tribesmen here saw these Central Plains people wearing armor, carrying flags, and riding carriages for the first time, they were all very surprised, including King Yuezhi. King Yuezhi had seen those envoys a long time ago.
The appearance of the Central Plains people is not unheard of among the Yuezhi people.
However, he had never seen such support. Whether it was their neat steps or the colorful flags, King Yuezhi was very curious. Gan Luo paid a respectful visit to King Yuezhi. In order to avoid conflicts, Gan Luo
When he came up, he presented the gifts he had prepared for King Yuezhi, including gold and jade, rare and rare trees, splendid clothes, and even paper, etc.
King Yuezhi was a cruel person, but his cruelty was more for fun, and this cruelty was more aimed at the lower class people. Otherwise, he would not have taken in the Xiongnu's Chanyu, and the Chanyu defected to him.
He thought it was very interesting to make his past opponents bow their heads, so he kept him. At this moment, Gan Luo presented so many interesting gifts. Looking at these treasures, King Yuezhi couldn't take his eyes away at all. He was very helpless.
He politely asked several of his ministers to accompany Gan Luo, and then returned with gifts.
He wanted to appreciate his treasures alone, and Gan Luo was no longer important.
Gan Luo couldn't guess what the other party was thinking. Such kings couldn't guess or see through at all. At this point, South Korea's Prime Minister Zhang knew very well. Those Yuezhi ministers were also a little embarrassed at the moment.
But they still arranged a banquet to entertain the envoy from Qin. Of course, Gan Luo also gave them gifts. At this time, Gan Luo began to show his outstanding diplomatic ability.
He had a great time chatting with these ministers. Gan Luo was smart and had very high communication skills. He had investigated these ministers beforehand and knew something about them. Therefore, after just a moment, he and these ministers began to call each other brothers.
The conversation was very pleasant, and they even gained the respect of many ministers. Naturally, the other members of the envoy were not idle either. Gan Luo let them play in the banquet in peace, and they began to blend in among these Yuezhi people.
Gan Luo stayed in Yuezhi country like this. When Touman Chanyu of the Xiongnu learned the news, he was also extremely shocked. He didn't know how the arrogant and stupid Yuezhi king allowed a group of Qin people to stay.
By his side, Touman immediately had many ideas. If the Yuezhi went to war with Qin... would this be an opportunity for the Huns? Just when Touman began to make arrangements according to his own ideas, Gan Luo
He is also executing his own strategy.
Since Gan Luo came here, he had other ideas in his mind. Instead of letting the Yuezhi King nod and open the road to the Western Regions, it would be better to let the Yuezhi King die and directly regain this important Hexi Corridor.
, the Yuezhi king cannot die, such a person must stay, let him continue to lead the Yuezhi people to "glory". Gan Luo was still a little afraid of the Yuezhi at first, but when he truly understood this country, he felt more at ease
.
The Yuezhi people have less than one million people. Of course, this is normal. Like the original Xiongnu, the population during their peak period was less than one million people. However, because of their special characteristics, the number of soldiers they can recruit is very large.
Most of their people can ride horses, and they don't need to prepare too many war supplies. The Yuezhi people with less than a million people can muster an army of more than 200,000 people.
However, thanks to the current Yuezhi King, the Yuezhi Kingdom has different tribes. Although the differences between them are not too big and their languages are the same, they are not a whole after all. In order to control various territories, the Yuezhi King in the past
For the purpose, he distributed his confidants and heirs to various places to command the local people, which was similar to the feudal system, but the difference was that the leaders of these feudal systems were not hereditary, they were directly drafted by the Yuezhi King.
Today's King of the Yuezhi is a cruel and cruel guy. During his reign, he dismissed local leaders many times and even killed local leaders. Because of the rapid replacement of leaders, the place became centrifugal and government affairs were chaotic. This is just like in the Zhou Dynasty.
The emperor of Zhou changed kings from different places every day, and even killed these kings cruelly. This was really stupid. But this is what King Yuezhi did.
He dared to do this because his father had left him a powerful army. One-third of the people of the Yuezhi Kingdom were directly managed by the Yuezhi King, and his army was the largest.
Although he was not very kind to the soldiers under his command, he could still provide them with plenty of food, and birds of a feather flocked together. Most of the people around him were cruel and greedy guys. With these troops, he ignored local opposition.
Gan Luo was a little excited. The internal conflicts of the Yuezhi were a good thing for him. Another point was the ministers around King Yuezhi. These ministers were very dissatisfied with King Yuezhi, and even attacked King Yuezhi's army.
Here, dissatisfaction also existed. Gan Luo felt that it would be a waste if he did not make use of these things. Gan Luo chose to brainlessly please the Yuezhi King, who was stupid, arrogant, arrogant and slow.
Gan Luo held gifts in one hand and compliments in the other, which made King Yuezhi beam with joy every day. He kept Gan Luo by his side and even wanted to give him a title. Gan Luo's compliments made him very happy.
, after getting close to Queen Yuezhi, Gan Luo used several of his confidants to win over the ministers around King Yuezhi. Up to this time, Gan Luo had not expressed any purpose or idea, and was just flattering her constantly.
Because of the death of Wu Chenghou, the emperor was not that concerned about Gan Luo going to Yuezhi. In other words, during this period, the thoughts of the ministers were not here. This can be regarded as Gan Luo's luck. If it had happened at other times
, he treated the Yuezhi King like this, and he has not completed his mission for a long time. I am afraid that the emperor has been unable to sit still for a long time, and may have doubted whether he is going to rebel, or simply ordered him to return because of his incompetence.
After Gan Luo stayed in Yueshi for more than a month, he finally decided to take action.
When the Yuezhi King heard the news that several tribal leaders in the north had rebelled, he was angry. Such a thing had never happened to the Yuezhi. How dare they rebel? How dare they raise an army against themselves? The Yuezhi King was shocked and angry, and hurriedly asked
Ministers, why are there rebellions in the local area... Some ministers told the reason. This is because the king wants to build a pavilion to store his treasures, and requires the leaders of various places to put down their affairs and bring the people to build it.
caused such a thing.
Well, this pavilion was suggested by a minister. He believed that the Yuezhi King should build a palace to store his treasures and admire them all day long. The reason why the minister mentioned it was Gan Luo's suggestion.
During these days, Gan Luo kept getting close to King Yuezhi, constantly encouraging him, making him more ambitious, and unconsciously taught him some things, such as how there was an outstanding king in China.
This outstanding king built wine pools and meat forests, burned disobedient people to death, and so on... There was also a king who flirted with local lords for the woman he loved, and a wise king killed his brothers and sisters for the peace of the country.
..After Gan Luo unconsciously revealed some deeds of Chinese sages, the Yuezhi King began to follow suit, intensifying the exploitation of the local area and the entire Yuezhi.
At the same time, Gan Luo sent people to secretly collude with local leaders... King Yuezhi insisted on asking the leaders of various places to help him build palaces when they were preparing to migrate for the winter. This became the final trigger, and the war was about to break out.
After receiving Gan Luo's promise and funding, some tribal leaders first began to resist, and the Yuezhi King decided to put down the war as quickly as possible and burn those rebels to death!!
Gan Luo couldn't help but sneer.
A civil war broke out among the Yuezhi, but the Xiongnu Chanyu sided with the king of the Yuezhi to put down the rebellion for them. The power gap between the two sides was very large. The combined strength of the rebel leaders was less than four.
Thousands of people, and King Yuezhi dispatched 100,000 people at once to suppress them. However, the war did not go as King Yuezhi thought. I don’t know why, but the leaders who participated in the rebellion responded to the situation of King Yuezhi’s army.
He knows everything about them, even their attack route.
They also used tactics such as ambushes and surprise attacks that were not in line with theirs, and quickly defeated the Yuezhi King's several attacks. This made the Yuezhi King even more angry. He executed several generals to vent his anger, and then attacked again.
King Yuezhi's own tribe also had a problem. A minister who was deeply trusted by King Yuezhi actually poisoned the wine. Although he did not admit it until his death, the furious King Yuezhi brutally tortured him to death.
He rewarded Gan Luo for finding problems.
Immediately, King Yuezhi, who no one could trust, asked Gan Luo to find out the minister's accomplices... For a time, many ministers around King Yuezhi were arrested and killed in the name of murdering the king.
Another rebellion broke out in the king's tent. Some herdsmen killed his horse and gathered a crowd to rush into the palace, but were stopped by the warriors... For a while, King Yuezhi was in a state of distress.
The war is still going on, and the local army is struggling to hold on. Seeing that several leaders can persist for such a long time, those local leaders who doubt the strength of King Yuezhi are unwilling to contribute, and even a few people directly join.
On the other side, King Yuezhi could do nothing but become furious...At this time, another minister offered his own strategy to King Yuezhi. It would be better to withdraw his main army and let the local leaders serve as the main force.
They killed each other.
The Yuezhi King was convinced and began to do as he said. However, in the end, this approach only forced the local leaders on his side to turn against each other and became his enemies. Seeing that the rebellion was somewhat unable to be suppressed,
There were struggles everywhere, and his position was shaky. King Yuezhi finally calmed down, and he was a little scared. At this time, Gan Luo finally came out.
"Your Majesty, I have an idea that can completely solve the local rebellion... General Wang Jian of the Qin State is not far from Yuezhi. Although his strength is not strong, with only 30,000 or 40,000 people, General Wang Jian
There is a lot of food and supplies. If we let them help, they may be able to put down these rebellions... But..." Gan Luo said hesitantly: "However, after putting down the rebellion, he will definitely make a request.
"
When King Yuezhi summoned his ministers to discuss whether to invite the Qin army to help him suppress the rebellion, the ministers all expressed great support. Those who were unwilling to support had long been purged because of the poisoning incident. Today's
The ministers had either been bribed by Gan Luo, or were just giving them wine bags and rice bags, posing no threat at all... King Yuezhi immediately asked Gan Luo to send people back to ask Qin for help.
The war within the Yuezhi is becoming more and more fierce at this moment. The local leaders seem to have seen the dawn of victory. In addition, the people of the Yuezhi are on their side and even defected from the royal tent to their side.
King Yuezhi turned from offensive to defensive, and the rebels began to attack... King Yuezhi obviously didn't know that there was something called people's support, and he didn't even know how unpopular he was.
The people voluntarily donated cattle and sheep as supplies for the rebels, and the elderly and children also took up arms to participate in the rebellion... Over the years, the Yuezhi King has gone too far, and the Yuezhi people are eager to eat him.
Meat, drink his blood... At this time, the people sent by Gan Luo finally got in touch with Wang Jian's deputy general. Wang Jian was still in Xianyang and had not returned. Now the deputy general is guarding here.
The deputy general was Huan Jue, and he was not a mediocre person. He learned a lot of information from Gan Luo's envoy.
"I don't have the final say on sending troops. It requires His Majesty's consent."
"Your Majesty will agree. We have already sent people to Xianyang... However, you must remember that if you go to Yuezhi this time, you will be attacked by the Huns and defeated. You cannot win...", Gan
Luo's envoy said seriously, which made Huanjue's face full of confusion, "It's not impossible for us to fake defeat, but it requires the cooperation of the Huns. How could the Huns attack us? Are we willing to do so?
Can Luo still order the Huns?"
"And, why are we doing this? What's the point?"
Gan Luo's envoy smiled and did not answer the question.
In the distant Xiongnu camp, Shun was telling Touman his views. Shun said seriously: "Chanyu, you previously wanted to cause a conflict between King Yuezhi and Gan Luo, and even arranged for people to poison and frame him.
Gan Luo, however, was finally used by him and got rid of his opponent... Now, he wants to lead Qin's army into the Yueshi. This is to plot against the Yueshi. They must want to
Attack from both front and rear, destroy King Yuezhi...and then occupy this place."
"We must find a way... We must not let the Qin people get this big advantage..."
Touman Chanyu squinted his eyes and couldn't help but nodded, "That's right."
