Chapter 349 Protector's Mansion and Shan Yutai
Chang'an.
"This Qin San is really capable of making trouble."
In the Taiji Palace, the emperor looked at a letter and couldn't help being amazed.
Since Hetao reported the war situation, Li Shimin didn't sleep well at night, staring at the situation in the north all day long, but the development of the matter far exceeded expectations.
The good news is one after another.
In the past, many admonishing officials, led by Wei Zheng and others in the court, impeached Qin Lang for light provocations, saying that he was arrogant and reckless, etc., and wanted to seize his official position and discuss his crimes. Who knew, in the blink of an eye, Fengzhou was not only stabilized under Qin Lang's command, but now Qin Lang has actually recovered Shengzhou, and directly deployed an army two hundred miles in front of Qiantaojieli Shanyutai , built a surrendered city.
The establishment of the three surrendered cities made Li Shimin, the immediate emperor, also marvel at his strategic vision. The three surrendered cities and three soldiers and horses completely incorporated Fengzhou into the Tang Dynasty.
If you don't build the Great Wall, you can also keep the Hetao safe by relying on the surrender of the city.
And Dongshoujiang City and Shengzhou City face each other across the river, and the sword is pointing at Jieli, and the soldiers are forcing Shanyutai.
It was really unexpected that this move was slanted forward, and it was chosen at such an appropriate time, which put Xieli in a dilemma.
What was even more unexpected was that Qin Lang sent Yu Sheshe's son, Qin Jianchen, to sneak into the clouds secretly, and actually actually instigated Yuan Junzhang's son, and the mutiny forced Yuan Junzhang to surrender to Tang.
Li Shimin has a lot of resentment towards this Yuan Junzhang, and how much trouble he has caused to the Tang Dynasty. This guy can't read a single word, but he is extremely brave, and has excellent strategies. He has a way of governing the people, otherwise, the world will turn against the king They were defeated one after another, but Yuan Junzhang was able to support until now?
"Young people are really brave!" Empress Changsun couldn't help but exclaimed.
"When Qin San was in the court, he said every day not to take risks, don't do anything, stay steady, and don't wave. Earlier, Hou Junji and Li Jing said that they would use force against Master Liang, but he firmly opposed it. As a result, when he arrived in Hetao, he changed immediately. Same. Originally, he was asked to appease Yushe and set up the Ministry. As a result, he was preparing troops there, engaged in trade, and got acquainted with the Turkic people. The three armies of Tiande stationed their soldiers directly under Jieli's eyes."
Li Shimin really didn't know what to say about Qin Lang.
He wanted to beat Liang Shidu before, but Qin Lang couldn't do it because he jumped up and down, and the conditions were immature. As a result, this kid is doing things in Fengzhou, and he doesn't go to the court. Do it, hit it if you want.
But you can't be angry yet, because this kid has achieved amazing results.
"It didn't cost a single soldier to take down the two prefectures of Yunshuo for me, and the borderland of three hundred miles north of Daibei, and regained it in one day."
"The general is away, and the emperor's order is not accepted. Qin Lang seems to be a bold and careful person. He can judge the situation and see that there is something to do. He is very decisive. It seems that he is worthy of being the son of Shu Bao, a rising star of the general family. "Empress Changsun became more and more fond of this eldest son-in-law.
Li Shimin was scratching his head, this son-in-law didn't show much military talent before, but he was very good in other aspects, especially the economic one. Now that the level of a general is suddenly shown, Li Shimin is a little worried.
"Your Majesty, Wei Shenzheng asks to see His Majesty."
"I don't see, this Wei Zheng must be doing the same thing again. Why did the Tang Dynasty open up border quarrels lightly and break trust with others? This is the beginning of another war. There will be no peace in the world, and the people on the frontier will be in dire straits again. The general is fighting outside. After winning the battle, Wei Zheng wants me to punish the victorious general and ask me to make amends to Turkic Jieli, what is the reason for this?"
Li Shimin looked disgusted at Wei Zheng.
He picked up Zhang Gongjin's memorial and played it.
"How can the fat in my mouth be given up again?"
The emperor summoned Zhongshu Sheren and asked him to draw up an imperial edict.
"Emperor Feng Yuanjunzhang, Duke of Ruiguo, with five hundred households in Shiyi, inspected and inspected General Zuo Wuwei, and entered the court."
"Emperor Fengyuan Xiaozheng Rong Guogong, three hundred households were entrusted with real food, envoys held festivals, all the military forces in Shuozhou were supervised, and the governor of Shuozhou was appointed."
"Chief Fengyuan Xiaowen Zuowei Zhonglang General, Duke of Wuwei County, Sima of Yunzhou!"
"The imperial edict established the Yanran Dufu, the governors Feng, Sheng, Yun, and Shuo, commanded the Turkic and Zahu tribes south of Yinshan Mountain, led the Yanran Dufu with the crown prince Cheng Qianyao, and worshiped Qin Lang as Yanran The deputy governor of the capital, Li Daliang is the governor of the governor of the capital."
The Duhufu is different from the Dudufu.
This is the first time that the Tang Dynasty set up the Duhufu, but the Duhufu began to be established as early as the time of Emperor Xuan of the Western Han Dynasty. It was first established in Wulei in the Western Regions. The governor Wusun, Kangju and other nomadic countries.
During the Wei and Western Jin Dynasties, there was a long history mansion in the Western Regions.
But now Datang has once again set up a Protectorate, not in the Western Regions, but in the Monan River area.
There is a big difference between the Duhu and the Dudufu. The Duhu focuses on the protection, and it is all for the whole, and the guardian is the guardian of the troops.
It can be seen that the difference between Li Shimin's words is that the key point is to highlight the characteristics of the Han situation in the Hetao area.
"Control the tribes, appease the conquests, and explain the merits and sins!"
This is the duty of the Duhufu, and the duty of the Dudufu is to supervise the soldiers, armors, city gods, towns and garrisons of the states, and to judge the affairs of the government.
Li Shimin would never spit out the meat that had already reached his mouth.
The new establishment of the Yanran Protectorate was also to strengthen the control of Fengsheng Shuoyun and other newly acquired lands, and to unify the control and command, especially to emphasize the power of Qin Lang, a general sent by the imperial court, to command the Turks and Zahu tribes.
Li Shimin was not stingy about the leaders of the various ministries who belonged to him.
Li Shimin thought it was too stingy for Qin Lang to confer small officials such as the chieftain of the miscellaneous beards and the captain of the Tutuan, so he decided to add officials to these people, depending on the population of the tribe, and those with more than 3,000 people were awarded the third rank If there are more than 1,000 people, if there are more than 500 people, the 6th grade will be awarded, and if there are more than 100 people, the 7th and 8th grade will also be awarded.
And it is specially designed to recruit their children to Chang'an, either as Sanwei officials, or as Guozi Jiansheng.
On the same day, Li Shimin deduced on the sand table with a group of generals such as Li Jing, Hou Junji, and Li Daozong in the lecture hall.
In the end, Li Shimin was full of confidence, thinking that Xieli didn't dare to fight this time, just like Li Shimin didn't dare to really fight when Jieli came to Chang'an last year.
The right time, place and people are in harmony, and now Xieli doesn't occupy any of them.
Yuan Junzhang's surrender to the Tang Dynasty made Jieli suffer from enemies on both east and west sides.
"Taking advantage of his illness to kill him, we must not give him a chance to breathe!"
Li Shimin gritted his teeth, and finally let him find a chance to avenge his shame.
The emperor just played with Li Jing and the others in the sand table. Even if he is Jieli, he has no chance of winning now.
Increase troops.
Li Shimin decided to add troops to Qin Lang. Qin Lang was the deputy governor of Yanran and the governor and governor of Fengzhou, Li Daliang was the governor of the governor and governor of Shengzhou, and Yu Chigong was the governor and governor of Yunzhou.
Qin Qiong, the governor of Lingzhou, transferred 5,000 soldiers from Lingwu to Fengzhou, Zhang Gongjin, the acting governor of the state, transferred 5,000 soldiers to Yunzhou, and Shi Li Ji, the governor of the prefecture, transferred 5,000 soldiers to Shengzhou.
Although it's the cold winter and the twelfth lunar month, but this time you can't be cowardly, you have to show your momentum.
Sending 5,000 troops in one direction, and splitting the route to the north for reinforcements, Li Shimin thought it was okay to suffer a little bit.
"Tell Qin Lang that I will support him from behind, and if Jieli dared to show his teeth, he would pull out his wolf fangs."
It was almost Chinese New Year when the emperor's decree reached Dongshoucheng.
After all, Xieli did not dare to take risks to fight.
Zhang Gongjin's Daizhou soldiers were stationed at Shahukou on the Outer Great Wall, only 100 miles away from Dingxiang Dali City in the Later Sui Dynasty and Yang Zhengdao, and only 200 miles away from Shanyutai at the foot of his Yin Mountain.
And Qin Lang in the southwest has more than 10,000 soldiers and horses stationed in Dongshoujiang City, which is only two hundred miles away from him. What's more frightening is that Zhang Gongjin in the southeast is still a hundred miles away from him. Guard the mountain road.
But Qin Lang is far away from Xieli's Shan Yutai, but it is as flat as a mountain.
In fact, not only did Xieli not dare to show his teeth, but he was already considering moving Khan Ting back to the old Shanyutai in Mobei.
In recent years, the Turkic people have three Shanyutai, one is at the foot of Yudujun Mountain in Mobei, which is the old khan court of the Turkic people.
The other two are in Monan, one is the Shanyutai at the foot of the Baidao Road in the former Taoyin Mountain, and the other is in the Great Wall. Before that, Shibi Khan and Chuluo Khan had set up Shanyutai in the clouds inside the Great Wall. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, it was very convenient for them to invade the Central Plains.
Now Shan Yutai in the cloud has been lost.
Shanyutai under the Yin Mountain is no longer safe.
Xieli had to consider a practical issue, that is, the various ministries refused to follow orders to send troops, but this year was a heavy snowstorm, and the people of Tang dared to send troops in such a dangerous way. Victory attack?
If the Tang people attacked from Shengzhou and Yunzhou, or even sent troops to attack from Youzhou, would he be able to withstand it?
"Sweat!"
Qin Lang sent an envoy.
"Bring it on!"
"Who are you and what is your official position in the Tang Court?"
"Hui Da Khan, in Xia Yuanzhen, served in the military for Fengzhou in the Sui Dynasty, and was captured as a slave of Turkic for thirteen years. The order of the Duke of the Kingdom came, and he declared to the Great Khan that the south of the desert is our land in the Central Plains. The Great Khan should take his subordinates back to Mobei to graze. Your sweat court is in Mobei, and your ancestral land is in Mobei. It is time Return Monan to me in the Central Plains."
"Did Qin Lang just send a slave to talk to me? What right does a slave have to talk to Ben Da Khan?" Jie Li was annoyed.
Yuan Zhen continued neither humble nor overbearing, "Mr. Yi said that the weather is cold now, so he gave Da Khan another three months to prepare, but before the summer, he must move his troops across Yinshan Mountain and return to Mobei."
"If the Great Khan agrees, then please hand over the remnants of the previous dynasty, Yang Zhengdao and the Xiao family, to the Tang Dynasty as a sincerity. Otherwise, the Tang Dynasty will not stop attacking, and the war will continue until our Tang army invades Shanyutai , Pull down the sweaty white wolf flag, and plant the red flag of my Tang Dynasty!"
"Presumptuous, drag this lowly slave down and chop it up!"
Yuan Zhen laughed out loud.
"The Great Khan kills me, Yuanzhen, alone, and Duke Yi will slaughter your Turkic blood to pay for it in the future!"
Zhi Si Shi Li and Simo hurriedly persuaded Jie Li to be angry.
"When the two countries are at war, don't behead envoys."
"Just drive this southern barbarian slave back!"
To put it bluntly, Xieli withdrew the order and changed it to drive people out of the Khan Court.
But in the Khan Court, Jieli and Zhisi were even more troubled. Now that Qin Lang said such arrogant words, how should they respond?
