Chapter 5056 War Crisis
Seeing Xiao Yu's answer, Guo Guangjing felt relieved and couldn't help but feel complacent. He was originally "buried to the door" by Cheng Yaojin, but he was so embarrassed and angry that he could not bear it, but after a change of his hand, he made a move. "Turning the tiger and swallowing the wolf" not only broke the intimidation and coercion of Cheng Yaojin, but also broke the influence of the aristocratic families on Liangzhou and the possible insult in the future, and sat firmly in the position of the governor of Liangzhou to show off.
How can you not be happy if you become a blessing in disguise?
In the past, I was so nervous and anxious that I couldn't sleep because of the position of Liangzhou Governor. But in a blink of an eye, I found that the governor of Liangzhou might just be the starting point of his career, and it would be even more impossible to enter the center and become a minister in the future... …
I was in a good mood and felt that even if I had revealed some unconfidential news, I took a sip of tea and sighed: "It's not just unbearable? It's a tragic! Although the two sides confronted each other, they had a small-scale conflict Continuously, from Zishankou to the plateau more than a hundred miles below Luoshe City, one side wanted to cut off the enemy's food route, and the other side fought back. The scouts and troops on both sides fought continuously, fighting endlessly, and blood was everywhere and corpses were bleeding step by step." br>
Xiao Yu is also proficient in military affairs and immediately understood: "Is there something wrong with Songzan Gampo?"
Guo Guangjing nodded: "Last winter, Gongri Gongzan died tragically, and then Songzan Gampo was born again A serious illness and was unconscious for a while. The Tubo launched a fierce internal struggle over the inheritance rights. If it weren't for Qinling's troops coming to the city, they would probably have to fight within them."
Xiao Yu was a little puzzled: "According to the As far as I know, Songtsen Gampo only has one son, Gongri Gongzan, and Gongri Gongzan has given birth to children. Zanpu's position is inherited in an orderly manner. How could there be internal struggles over inheritance? "
" This is the power of Lu Dongzan. Before Lu Qinling started his army, he had already sent his eldest son Zan to the rear of Luosie City to contact the six tribes of Nacang and some other small tribes. After Gongri Gongzan died in battle , immediately stated that Songzan Gampo's grandson Songmang Songzan was unable to take charge of state affairs at a young age, and may cause disaster to be caused by relatives, which will delay Tubo. Therefore, he jointly forced Songzan Gampo and demanded that Zan Pu be re-elected instead of circulating it in Songmang Songzan. "
After all, Tubo is just a "tribal alliance". With his powerful prestige and skills, Songzan Gampo could forcibly spread the position of his son Gongri Gongzan. Even if the other tribes are dissatisfied, I dare not express it, and I can also be recognized for my youth and promisingness.
But if Songtsen Gampo is dead now and everyone is willing to respect a baby as the common leader, who can convince?
In a short sentence: If you have no son, you have to give up the position of Zamp. If you still dominate and do not let go, everyone will unite to cause your rebellion...
Xiao Yu sighed: "This move is really powerful! But the current chaos in Tubo began with the death of Gongri Gongzan. It is logical that Songzan Gampo asked Gongri Gongri Gongzan to attack Lu Qinling to increase his military Qualifications may not necessarily mean that Gongri Gongzan can really annihilate Lunqinling, so the protection of Gongri Gongzan should be extremely strict. How can Lunqinling have the strength to kill him in one fell swoop in the chaos? "< br>
If you really have the ability to kill the commander who is protected by tens of thousands of troops, you will not be able to stand still or stop at the Luoshe City, and you will have already broken Luoshe City and destroyed Tubo.
Perhaps, is Pei Xingjian’s work?
The Anxi Protectorate threw Jiaohe City to Xue Rengui, and he had been in charge of Hexi for a long time. He had been living in seclusion and did not hear any news. However, no one dared to ignore this rising star who was young and guarding important places in the Western Regions.
Guo Guangjing was secretive about this: "How can an outsider know about it? In short, until now, all plans have been implemented quite smoothly, and the strategic expectations formulated at the beginning have been initially realized."
This battle in Tubo was almost initiated by the Tang Dynasty, and Lu Dongzan had no choice.
The strategic purpose of the Tang Dynasty is very clear, that is, Tubo must be divided, and there cannot be a unified and powerful country on the plateau that threatens the Tang Dynasty Hexi, the Western Regions, and even the entire Longyou Road and Jiannan. The border security of the way.
Xiao Yu was once the prime minister, and he had to admire Pei Xingjian sincerely: "While Pei Xingjian was guarding the Western Regions, he also planned the battle of Tubo, and he had the spirit of turning his hands into clouds and turning his hands into rain. It is natural for a famous general to become a minister in the future."
Becoming a prime minister requires not only ability, but also qualifications and merits. As long as the battle of Tubo ends successfully, there will be no obstacles in Pei Xingjian's entry into the center, and becoming a prime minister is just around the corner.
But how old is this Wenxi Pei family’s son this year?
The prime minister in his thirties has been rare throughout history.
Suddenly I realized that the officials in charge of key departments in the court now seem to be getting younger. A large group of young officials led by Fang Jun are excellent in abilities and great achievements. While they are enterprising, they are able to strengthen the power of the empire while promoting the strength of the empire. Continuously pushing to one peak after another.
In contrast, those officials who rely on their merits and qualifications appear to be mediocre and do nothing against the backdrop of young people, and cannot keep up with the times...
Guo Guangjing also sighed, raised the teacup and said with a sigh: "Young and promising, the younger generation is terrifying. These young officials are the future of our Tang Dynasty. With them, the empire will flourish and flourish, look up to the world and unify the eight desolates! Wine on behalf of the empire! "
Xiao Yu also raised his glass and collided with him: "Congratulations to the empire!"
Compared with the Tang Dynasty's strong power and military power shocking the world, What is such a small amount of interest disputes in front of you?
The country is strong and the people are rich.
The benefits of the whole world can be earned at will, so why bother with it?
The pattern opened and suddenly became clear.
******
In the Delete City, Pei Xingjian was at his desk to review official documents. When he saw Xue Rengui, who was wearing regular clothes and strong body, stepped in from outside the door. Then he put down his brush and stood up. He moved his neck and took out a handkerchief from the basin on the side and wrung it out and wiped his face.
The two of them sat on the chair in front of the window, and the clerk brought hot tea.
After hungry, Pei Xingjian frowned and asked, "Is the situation very bad?"
Xue Rengui put down his teacup, nodded, and said with a heavy tone: "There are constant news coming from the Great Food Country. Muaweiye has now firmly held the position of Caliphate. Not only has he recruited soldiers, but he also ordered all tribes in his country to send troops to Sarawak City and appoint The general Fahaili under his command was the commander, preparing for war and training. His purpose was to be desperate and he wanted to point his sword to the Western Regions. "
Sacheng is Damascus, and the people in the Western Regions generally called it Damascus, and the Tang Dynasty officials He was called Samar City...
Pei Xingjian nodded.
With the smooth flow of the Silk Road and the opening of maritime routes, trade between the East and the West has increased by more than ten times compared to the past? More and more Tang Dynasty goods are sold to the West. While earning back gold and platinum, they also bring the West the impression of "mysterious and rich" in the East.
The savages covet Eastern wealth for more than one day or two.
Previously, Mu Aweiye launched all his elite troops to invade the Western Regions, and was beaten by Fang Jun to lose his armor and lose a lot of losses, but his intention to attack the Tang Dynasty was not dead.
Saying disdainful: "It's just a fool. Its main force was defeated by the general in the battle of the Sailye City. The navy formed was hit by Yang Zhou in the Persian Sea and countless warships were sunk, even the port of Shirofu was out. He didn't go, but he still dreamed of conquering the Tang Dynasty with one hand scripture and the other hand sword... I really don't know how to write the word "death". "
Pei Xingjian disagreed, took a sip of tea and asked, "Is there any other situation?"
With the Anxi Army's excellent equipment and long-standing battle formation, Xue Rengui will not be confused even if he faces twice the enemy, nor will he leave the Anxi Army and sneak into Hexi to see him in person. It must be There are other emergencies.
"That's right!"
Xue Rengui whispered: "There is a detailed work that sends back the news. A messenger from Lu Dongzan entered the palace of Muaweiye in Saecheng."
No mistakes, one song, one content, one in one 6 One 9, one book, one bar, one read!
"Lu Dongzan?"
Pei Xingjian was surprised: "The news is confirmed?"
"It's true."
Xue Rengui affirmed it.
Since Fang Jun entered the Ministry of War, he has invested huge manpower and material resources to survey and map the mountains and rivers of various countries under the sky, he has also sent, instigated and bribed people from various countries for use by the Tang Dynasty, responsible for collecting the various countries and ethnic groups. The information, no matter how much it is, was finally summarized in the secret room of the Chang'an War Department's Office. Therefore, the Tang Dynasty knew the situation of all countries in the world.
Pei Xingjian was a little worried. The terrain of the entire Western Regions emerged in his mind. He thought carefully and worried, "Will this old thief form an alliance with Muaweiye? He plans to make a clear idea. A secret attack on the Western Regions and even invaded Hexi, right? "Xue Rengui said, "I am also worried because of this, so I came to meet the Protector. If Mu Aweiye really sent a large army to invade the Western Regions again, I Should I take the initiative or stabilize the defense? ”
Pei Xingjian pondered without saying a word.
He is proficient in military affairs and naturally understands what Xue Rengui means.
The so-called active attack is to concentrate all forces to attack the invading enemies, and try to put the battlefield outside the border of the Tang Dynasty. Otherwise, the war will affect all parts of the Western Regions and will lead to the emergence of all ethnic groups within the country. Panic, which in turn caused turmoil.
After all, the Western Regions were not the homeland of the Tang Dynasty, and the political environment was very harsh and there was no need to be lost.
The so-called stable defense means to work hard while ensuring strength, not fighting decisively with the enemy, and leaving the rest of your strength to take care of the rear at any time.
The rear convenience of the Western Regions is the Hexi Corridor and even the entire Longyou Road. What's the point of taking into account?
I am naturally worried about Lu Dongzan.
Obviously, the two of them thought of one place.
"Are you worried about Lu Dongzan?"
"Realistically speaking, all the forces of the Gar family are currently confronting Luoshecheng at Zishankou, and they have no spare energy to threaten Hexi. Kelu Dong This old thief praised him for his treacherous cunning, outstanding wisdom, and extremely high status and prestige in Tubo. He is very likely to borrow troops from the other tribes. If our attention is all on the Western Regions and the invading Dashi Army Lu Dongzan Dake sent troops to rage Hexi. Just attack Wushaoling to the east and block the road to reinforcements from Guanzhong, and then the entire Hexi will fall into a passive position."
Xue Rengui analyzed it and then said : "Fortunately, there are still left Wu Guard and Right Guard in Liangzhou, but the Grand Duke must contact you in time to eliminate future troubles." However, Pei Xingjian sighed repeatedly: "Cheng Yaojin... may not be reliable."
