Chapter 275 Mutual calculation (two in one)(1/2)

In Zhang Zhao's tent, Pei Yuan touched a few strands of beard under his chin, and his slender eyes suddenly burst out with a sinister light, making him look a bit like an old fox.

"Pei asked the envoy if he had the intention to annex the Uighurs in Ganzhou. Does the envoy think he can annex the Uighurs in Ganzhou? What is the minimum goal that the envoy must achieve in this war? And what benefits do he want to gain?"

Zhang Zhao nodded, it was interesting. Those who can ask these questions are the thoughts of a normal counselor. He thought for a while.

"A certain person really has the intention to annex the Uighurs in Ganzhou. It is his ambition to capture Ganzhou and control the five major Hexi counties of Guasha, Gansu and Liang. He also feels that he will definitely be able to swallow up Ganzhou.

But I'm afraid there are some difficulties at the moment. As for the minimum goal and the benefits that can be obtained, firstly, it depends on the generals to fight bravely, and secondly, it depends on you and other civil servants to plan for someone!"

"The military envoys are not arrogant because of the great victory, which is really a blessing for me to join the rebel army!" Pei Yuan raised his hand and praised Zhang Zhao first.

"The Uighurs in Ganzhou have nearly 300,000 people. They separate Ganzhou, control Suzhou in the west, and attack other tribes in the east. They are actually the largest power in Hexi at present.

There has been a feud with the Guiyi Army for generations. Although they suffered a huge defeat, it would be difficult to pacify them if the military envoys did not completely defeat them and execute all close members of the Yao Geluo family.

Furthermore, although Liangzhou was called six tribes, there was no unified leader, and Liangzhou was far wealthier than Ganzhou. All the military envoys' energy at this time should be focused on Liangzhou, rather than taking over Ganzhou at this time.

Because as long as the six tribes of Liangzhou are recaptured and then attacked from both sides by Guasha, the Ganzhou Uighurs will be captured by military envoys sooner or later."

Zhang Zhao couldn't help but applaud, Pei Yuan is really capable, and what he wants coincides with his own.

The Ganzhou Uighurs are poor and unruly, and due to centuries of hatred against the Guiyi Army, it is difficult to conquer them. It is far better to focus on Liangzhou and the Momo tribe at this time.

"Pei She people have great talents, please tell them all!"

Seeing that Zhang Zhao agreed with his idea, Pei Yuan was also a little proud and emotional, finally meeting someone who was compatible with his ideas.

“So, someone’s suggestion is to start with easy things first and then hard ones, first with Liangzhou and then with Ganzhou.

Regarding the Ganzhou Uighurs, although we have a great victory at this time, we should not force them too much, lest they jump over the wall and delay the situation. If we can get gold, silver, goods and Suzhou, we should accept it as soon as possible.

The military envoy can send two groups of envoys all the way to Liaoquan to guard the place where Renyu Khan is captured. They will discuss the interests and make an alliance with him again. As long as Renyu Khan is willing to abandon Suzhou and compensate for the losses of our army, we will let him go.

go back.

The other way went to Yaogeluo Tongli and asked him for Suzhou and gold, jewels, jade, war horses and weapons, and bluntly said that if he agreed, we would send troops to capture Liaoquan and kill Renyu Khan."

Liu Zaisheng frowned slightly, looked at Pei Yuan and said, "Are there any deficiencies in the conditions for administering Geluotongli?

Gold, jewels, jade, war horses, and weapons are not a big deal. If when we go to attack Liaoquan to defend the capture, he suddenly leads a large army to attack, trying to kill us and Ganzhou Renyu Khan together, what should we do?"

Pei Yuan gave Liu Zaisheng a slight salute and said with a smile: "General Liu is truly a gentleman. The two envoys we sent must be true and false.

Renyu Khan had no choice but to cooperate with us. This is true cooperation.

Yao Geluo Tongli has evil intentions and has a large army in his hands, so he will definitely not cooperate with us sincerely.

If we really want to act in accordance with the agreement with Yao Geluo Tongli, he will definitely attack us as Liu Zongbing said, trying to have the cake and eat it too.

Therefore, the envoy we sent to Yao Ge Luo Tong Li was just to paralyze him.

When Renyu Khan agrees to our conditions, we will ask Renyu Khan to use Prince Jingqiong as a pledge.

As soon as Prince Jingqiong arrives, the military envoy can select an army and bring him to raid Yao Geluo Tongli, and then spread rumors that Khan Renyu wants to kill Yao Geluo Tongli, which will inevitably lead to chaos!"

As he spoke, Pei Yuan squinted his eyes and a cold smile appeared on his face, "This plan will not only instigate internal fighting within the Yaogeluo family, but it will also take the opportunity to brand these Uighur soldiers as rebellious.

Even when Renyu Khan returned to Ganzhou City, he did not dare to trust them. The political situation in Ganzhou would be even more turbulent. When the military envoys finished taking over Liangzhou, the matter would be decided!

Someone also heard that Cao Linggong’s daughter married away to Ganzhou and gave birth to a son and two daughters for the former Renyu Khan of Ganzhou. The military envoy could ask for them from Renyu Khan, and when Liangzhou was in hand in the future, he would avenge Aduoyu Khan.

Therefore, we can completely control Ganzhou."

"Guo Tiance!" Zhang Zhao was greatly surprised when he heard Pei Yuan's plan.

He was originally worried that when Liangzhou was recaptured, the Ganzhou Uighurs would come out to cause trouble or even take advantage of the situation, but the thunderbolt that Pei Yuan unleashed was enough to cause panic within Ganzhou.

Feeling that his position as chief civil servant was in jeopardy, Guo Tiance quickly stepped forward.

"You have been ordered to serve as a special envoy to go to Liaoquan to guard the capture and discuss interests with Renyu Khan. Do you dare to go?"

"If you follow the teachings carefully, you can definitely get Ganzhou Renyu Khan to agree to all the conditions!"

Guo Tiance replied loudly, "Why dare you do this? Unless Renyu Khan is completely crazy and even wants his own life, otherwise he will never dare to do anything to him."

After Guo Tiance went down, he saw Zhang Zhao looking around at the faces of everyone in the tent, so Pei Yuan simply walked out.

"Military envoy, the Yaogeluo Tongli Department has a heavy responsibility, so why not leave it to me?"

Zhang Zhao pretended to think for a moment and slowly shook his head. In fact, he also believed that Pei Yuan was the most suitable person.

"Yuying is the mastermind of someone, how can I put you in danger? I don't allow it, choose someone else!"

Pei Yuan bowed his head to the end and said, "The military envoy thinks highly of me, and I am inexplicably grateful. However, this plan was proposed by a servant, so choosing someone else may be a mistake."

Besides, as long as Yao Geluo Tongli is not crazy, he will not do anything to his servants. Please give me permission from the military envoy!"

.....

At night, when Liaoquan was guarding the city, Guo Tiance was blindfolded and brought to the presence of Renyu Khan of Ganzhou.

Renyu Khan has truly experienced what heaven and earth mean in these twenty days.

Twenty days ago he had dreamed of becoming the Khan of all the Uighurs, but now, he just wanted to save his life.

Renyu Khan was extremely surprised by Guo Tiance's arrival, but his heart sank to the bottom of his heart.

The presence of an envoy could mean at least two things. The commander-in-chief of the army from Ganzhou, his half-brother Yao Geluo Tongli, might have had other thoughts.

The second thing is that the Guiyi Army has a man who is even more difficult to deal with than Cao Yijin.

With this advantage, he is an extremely patient and sober opponent who does not dream of entering Ganzhou and completely annexing them, but instead slowly digests Suzhou first.

You must know that Ganzhou is a full 1,200 miles away from Dunhuang, and the Guiyi Army has a population of only a dozen or two hundred thousand people. It is simply not possible for the Guiyi Army to rule Ganzhou across 1,200 miles.

.

Even Suzhou will not be swallowed by them for a while, so they can only continue to rely on the Long family to rule.

This is also the reason why Cao Yijin once broke the city of Ganzhou and was only able to extort a large sum of money before supporting Aduyu Khan.

Of course, this is also the reason why his father, Renmei Khan, sent his brother Di Yin to defeat the rebel army at the gates of Dunhuang City and was still unable to enter Dunhuang City.

The core areas of both sides are too far apart and their own population is too small to completely swallow up the other side.

Unless you can kill most of the opponent's core men in one or two battles, it's absolutely impossible.

But although his 9,000-strong army was wiped out this time and Suzhou was lost, the number of people actually killed or captured on the battlefield by Renyu Khan was estimated to be only 3,000 or 4,000, and the rest would still pass through various methods.

Run back to Ganzhou on the trail.

At the same time, the Ganzhou Uighurs have a slightly stronger family background than the Guiyi Army. Without these three to four thousand warriors, they can still pull out ten or twenty thousand warriors at the limit. It is just not the norm, but it can still ensure that they will not be swallowed up.

Now since Zhang Erlang opposite is a sensible person, it is simple. According to the old rules, this time it is his turn to kneel down and be a good son.

There is nothing shameful about this. Zhang Chengfeng knelt down to Renmei Khan and was a good son. Aduoyu Khan also knelt down to Cao Yijin and was a good son. Now it is Renyu's turn to kneel down and be a good son to Zhang Chengfeng.

My son Zhang Zhao has become a good son.

Damn it, it’s really thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi!

So when Guo Tiance, who was alone, looked at Renyu Khan with his nostrils, he asked Renyu Khan to give him 300,000 gu of property as ransom and compensation, and to ask Cao Yijin's daughter and grandson to return to Dunhuang to live.

and other conditions.

He also said very domineeringly that he was not allowed to bargain, but when there were two answers: yes or no, Khan Renyu readily agreed to them all, and he really didn't pay back any of the price.

Silly beep! As long as I keep my life, your rebel army will be inferior to us in ten years, and I will settle the score with you then, Renyu Khan thought.

Damn it! You thought we couldn't do anything to you? The military envoy will take Liangzhou this year and attack from both sides next year. Your whole family will be entertained by then. Guo Tiance glanced at him and felt a sense of superiority in his IQ.

However, when the two of them talked about asking Prince Jing Qiong to be used as a hostage and Yao Geluo Tongli to retreat before Zhang Zhao was willing to implement the agreement, Renyu Khan hesitated.

He did not expect that Zhang Zhao would leave him with trouble, but thought that Zhang Zhao would severely weaken the Ganzhou Uighurs.

"Honorable envoy, what if envoy Zhang Jun repulses Tongli and refuses to abide by the agreement or detains someone?"

Renyu Khan stared closely at Guo Tiance's eyes, as if he wanted to see something from them.

Guo Tiance smiled and stared at Renyu Khan closely.

"Khan, you don't think that you still have room to bargain with Commander Zhang at this point, do you? Back then, you just reached the gates of Dunhuang City, and Commander Zhang's father wanted to...

Guo Tiance didn't finish what he said, but his meaning was very clear. What did you do back then, and now you still want to bargain?

"Now the Khan is almost like a prisoner among his subordinates, and Yao Geluo Tongli has 20,000 cavalry in hand. I wish you would die early. Please forgive me for speaking frankly. The Khan has no other option except trusting Zhang Junjun!"

Guo Tiance's mission went smoothly. Without Renyu Khan to move around, he could only agree to the conditions in full.

Pei Yuan's mission to Yao Geluo Tongli was carried out even more smoothly.

Zhang Zhao can help him get rid of Renyu Khan, Yao Geluo Tongli is simply a dream.

It was great to be able to gain power without having to bear the infamy of killing the monarch, so he wished that the Guiyi Army would immediately kill Renyu Khan.

Moreover, Yao Geluo Tongli also made a small request, that is, could Zhang Zhao kill Prince Jing Qiong as well, in which case he would be willing to add an additional 50,000 guan of wealth.

For a moment, Zhang Zhao wanted to really cooperate with Yao Geluo Tongli, because he felt a little bit of sincerity from Yao Geluo Tongli's reply.

But soon, Zhang Zhao got rid of this small personal emotion.

Yao Geluo Tongli has nearly 20,000 people, which is Zhang Zhao's biggest threat at present. Even if he is really sincere, he is not a good trading partner. If there is a slight change, he may suffer a big loss.
