The 154th chapter aspirations (six)

It was approaching July in a blink of an eye.

Even outside the border, the weather became hotter, and white light appeared on the vast grassland, causing the sun's blazing light to squeeze out from the ground and evaporate into the sky. Li Wei returned to Shuozhou again.

Open each residence newspaper.

There was some doubt in my mind. In my memory, the Eastern Turkic era, which is the post-Turkic era mentioned by historians, was very awesome.[]

Why are you defeated so badly?

There will be defeats, but Li Wei predicts that many bloody battles will occur, and the failure will be expected to be later.

There were some errors in his thoughts. In the post-Turkish era, it was not scary in Gudulu, but the terrible thing was the Mochu era. In the comparison of strength, in the Wuzhou era, the famous generals were almost killed by Wu Zetian, and in order to maintain the security of the regime, they mainly used personalities, so the generals selected were mediocre. Even though Guo Yuanzhen and Tang Xiuluo stood out at that time, they had to guard against the Western Regions and Tubo, and they had no energy to guard against the Eastern Turks.

At this time, he brought almost all the elites of the Tang Dynasty and Han Mou, who had experienced previous battles from west of Qinghai. They were soldiers from all ethnic groups in the Hezhong and Western Regions. They had poor combat power, but not because they were not individual, but mainly scattered, and there was no capable general to guide them. In fact, individual combat power was still very strong, and they were more suitable for fighting against the vast grasslands.

The Eastern Turks did not really become powerful. As later, they first annexed the Tiel tribes of the north and the east. If the Eastern Turks in history grew into a towering tree ten years later, then the Turks were just a small young seedling at this moment, with many people. In the past few years, Pei Xingjian defeated twice, without huge economic support... They were still a little cowardly and had not even had time to develop various industries, including various industries that made weapons.

The war started almost when the Tang Dynasty was relatively powerful and when the Turks were weaker, with a huge contrast.

The mistake in combat techniques, thinking that Li Wei was dead, almost all the troops were led out, and he wanted to make a profit during the civil strife of the Tang Dynasty... By the way, he captured Daozhen and gathered all the Turks, making the rear empty.

The wealth brought by Li Wei from Khorasan, Sindh and Tehran areas was constantly rewarded, which inspired morale and formed a sharp contrast.

So he suddenly defeated people very badly. But in terms of scale, it became the largest battle in the history of the Tang Dynasty. A total of more than 400,000 troops were dispatched. In the later period, Nuogebo turned against Tuyuhun, Xia Yan and other state officials who saw the situation, increased 50,000 to 60,000 troops one after another, and entered Fengzhou and Heisha... The total force almost reached nearly 500,000 troops. This was never seen in the history of the founding of the Tang Dynasty.

In June, it became the harvest season, and a large number of captured livestock and slaves started from Shuozhou, to Fengzhou, to Lingzhou, Juyanhai, Jinshan, and even to the north, spread all over the wilderness. After distribution, they were taken to various places.

Li Wei gave an order...it's basically over here.

I took down some of the Tielite tribes by the way. In order to identify, I even stamped the seal on my face and tied my silk on my sleeves. However, when the situation developed to this point, Li Wei couldn't help but worry that he would let the returner dominate the north.

The way to balance is here.

This is a must-practice technique for emperors. But it is time to go back.

My mother asked Zhou Xing to interrogate Pei Yan, but she didn't know what method she used, so Pei Yan admitted... He was the one who deceived the late emperor and his mother. He also colluded with Guo Zhengyi and Guo Daiju. He probably knew that Wei Xuantong and Ben Changqian had a good relationship with him, so he did not move. His mother killed the three of them... and the whole family was exiled to Lingnan.

Next, Zhou Xing was tortured, but he did not come to the trap, but he tortured him by means of Zhou Ju torturing people. He also confused Wu Zetian by causing Zhou Xing to confess and used to torture the suspect to confess and question him, which caused many unjust cases.

So he killed Zhou Xing again.

Anyway, the Ai family is wrong, but the Ai family is a woman with short-sightedness and bad ministers, so this group of ministers makes mistakes.

Then he issued an edict to blame himself, and Wu Chengsi was demoted to the governor of Tangzhou with ulterior motives.

One after another, the meat scenes came. Not only did I lose my car, but I also threw the cannons, horses, and pawns to protect the general. Then I returned the regime. I did not come back and handed over all the regime to several prime ministers for handling. I admitted my mistakes and killed some bad ministers to make room for you to come back. Why do I still have your mother? What can you do to me?

Some ordinary people also think so. Wu Zetian does not handle government affairs, and once the peace comes, he will be able to get the right idea. But it is conceivable that the ability of several prime ministers will hand over government affairs to them for handling.

The country is almost in chaos, but there are ways, such as sending memorials from various places to the north, but under the pressure of Wu Zetian, the officials did not dare to propose them. Li Wei even doubted whether his mother did this deliberately. Let’s take a look at what would it look like without the Ai family? Otherwise, there is really no way? As long as one person is assigned, the government orders will be unimpeded immediately. Qiu Renjie!

Maybe it's not as good as Wu Zetian, maybe it's better than Wu Zetian, but it's definitely better than the current situation.

Therefore, he forced him to go back.

He called Ashinadaozhen and said something to him: "Lian is about to return to Beijing."

"Your Majesty, you are going back to the capital. The country is the most important thing."

"Well, Lian asked you, what do you think about Lian's practice in the north?"

"Your Majesty, I am also a descendant of the Tang Dynasty's royal family, please rest assured." The simple voice can still be heard. The emperor was afraid that he would not be satisfied with his actions against the Turks. Therefore, I am a descendant of the Tang Dynasty's royal family, not referring to his father Asuna Sheer, but to his mother, Princess Nanyang.

"It's good that you can think of it this way, and the job will entrust you with an important task."

"Say, please give me instructions."

"The Union's methods were a bit violent this time, but due to helpless rebellion, the Union lost patience. But the Great Prairie League did not want it to become a desert. The Union led the Turkic tribes loyal to the court to move from Shuofang and other places to the grassland. The Union will also be given the position of the Great Protector of the Shanyu, King Dule."

"Your Majesty, I dare not." Daozhen slumped and said in fear.

King Dule used Dule to teach the king, which was equivalent to being the prince.

The titles, brothers and princes of the Tang Dynasty were all granted the titles of the country as princes. The sons of the crown prince were the princes. The sons of the princes were the successor kings, and the sons were the princes of the county, and those who had great contributions were awarded the title of the county princes.

The most rewarding heroes is the Duke.

The king of the different surname only received this title, including Jili and Chuluo, four or five Turkic khans. It is also a few rare kings of the different surnames in the Tang Dynasty so far.

King Dule did not refer to the country, but it also meant to refer to the country, the Turkic country!

So Ashin was really scared.

I am still very clear about my identity and abilities.

"The Lian knew that the reward was too heavy, but your status was not heavy, and the tribes were not convinced. The Lian gave you the title of King Dule, which not only gave you the qualifications and rights to manage the tribes, but also comforted the people. Otherwise, the tribes loyal to our Tang Dynasty would feel uneasy when they saw the measures of the Union, which may lead to bad things. At the same time, you moved the tribes to the north, and the task was arduous, and they would not be able to receive this title. The Lian will also implement the previous Tang Dynasty's policies. If there is a disaster year, the country will continue to provide some relief to the tribes. The Federation guides you some policies, such as

Establish a large city, conduct transactions, and reserve some food and materials to prevent unexpected years. Of course, you should also implement some policies for the Union in the north, so that the people can learn the language and writing of the Central Plains and strengthen their affinity with the Central Plains. In the future, the Union will send special personnel to cultivate some cold-resistant food, and you will also guide the people to farm alone and water. From a lifestyle, approach the people in the Central Plains. Otherwise, different cultures and different lifestyles will always be centrifugal. Anti-rebellion will be detrimental to them and the Central Plains."

The fight was severely suppressed, and the number of Turkic people almost shrank by two-thirds. Then they moved them north of Yinshan and did not give them some preferential policies. The people would be dissatisfied, even though they were awarded the title of King Daozhen's Dule Le.

After passing Yinshan, the area was vast, and a large number of vacuum areas were moved out, which was enough to block many people. The Turks had never changed their living habits outside the pass in recent years and could adapt. But what they feared most was a bad year. In a great cold, the livestock would most likely freeze to death, which would restrict the reproduction of the northern people. Huichun and other tribes have never been the opponent of the Turks, and the reason is that the number of workers could not keep up with this. The Turks took advantage of the advantages of the south of Yinshan and recovered quickly. Therefore, the Tiel tribes have always lived under the influence of the Yin of the Turks.

The strength of the Khitans is also because they live in the north of Youzhou. It would be of great significance to free up the south of Yinshan and Youzhou to Yingzhou.

"But Nanhetao, Yunshuo..."

"There will be a concern for the Union."

"Here."

The two discussed the things they needed to pay attention to when relocating.

This is very important. If the people are disgusted, they may even kill Daozhen and rebel again. Then, they summoned the chiefs of various tribes and negotiated, and also gave many good and intelligent policies, such as squeezing out some manors and land to make money for them, rewarding some official titles, and freeing up some mansions in Chang'an. If you are tired of staying in the desert, you can go back to Chang'an to enjoy it. Try to win over these leaders to become the link between the desert and the Central Plains, and cooperate with Daozhen's work.

Then the edict was issued, and the army retreated from the desert and from Yinshan to the east.

Li Wei also led more than 100,000 troops back to Yanmen Pass, but he was repatriated one after another. When he arrived in Luoyang, there were only more than 60,000 troops left. In addition to the tens of thousands of troops brought from Luoyang, there were 20,000 soldiers brought from Qinghai.

After crossing the Yellow River and not far away, you can see Luoyang City.

Looking at the Luoyang city walls, the horizon became clearer and clearer. Li Wei was filled with emotion. After more than ten years of tossing, at this moment, a hanging stone fell to the ground.

There is emotion, expectation, and a strangeness in my heart.
