Even if you can move these big clans, you often need a strong enough righteousness. For example, if the Turks want to go south to seek the throne, this is a big goal that no Turk can oppose.
At the same time, you need to be tough, otherwise who will care about you?
At the same time, at the end...
It is also necessary to provide huge enough benefits for redemption and exchange.
Otherwise, the effort is often in vain, and most of the time it serves no purpose other than causing civil strife.
——This Li Er, and the legendary general...
So powerful?
However, secretly wondering about the situation, Jieli Khan still knew what he should do.
This situation cannot be taken lightly!
Zheng Xuannian is right, we must be careful about annexation, but we must also exert our efforts.
Otherwise...if everyone does not unite, in the end, the entire Mobei may really become a Han people's world.
That's okay, but it definitely won't work!
Jieli Khan took a deep breath, raised his hands to Zheng Xuannian, and bowed his head to the ground!
"Thank you, sir, for your advice!"
"When the Turks return to the country, we should not forget the achievements made today by our husband, and we must take the position of prime minister and duke in honor of our husband!"
…
On the other side, Xianbei.
Huhu...
The new wind in Mobei is very cold. In the desolate land of the northwest, it is often extremely hot during the day in summer, not to mention winter. The huge temperature difference extremely tests human survival ability.
Goguryeo in the east of the Northern Desert is not much better. The vegetation here is more lush and dense, but it is cold.
And because of the transpiration of plants, the air humidity is higher than in the northwest, and the cold is even more severe, with ice and snow.
But this wind is not a cold winter wind.
The winter in Goguryeo has passed, now is summer, the warmest season, and this wind is the wind that makes all things grow.
Goguryeo's national power was very good, unprecedented in ancient times.
The Sui Dynasty, which once threatened to conquer Goguryeo, was not directly defeated by Goguryeo, but it was true that Goguryeo spent a huge amount of national power in the long confrontation. You can even say that the canal of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty not only promoted north-south circulation and strengthened flattening
In addition to the political reasons for culturalization, there is another major key reason, which is the war with Goguryeo.
Without the canal, the transportation of grain and grass supplies would always be costly based on high-risk sea transportation.
And if an army has huge costs, it will definitely not be an outstanding army and cannot achieve outstanding military exploits.
An army that cannot sustain its finances will inevitably face payment arrears and insufficient supplies of food and supplies... What kind of combat effectiveness can such an army have?
but……
Everything is in comparison.
If the enemy is also weak, then there is no need for a strong army. For the court, it can be used by temporarily recruiting some people.
But Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty tried to change the financial background of the Han army, but ultimately failed...a key reason was precisely because of the strength of the Turks and Goguryeo.
Among the many foreign enemies in the Chinese territory of China, the Turks and Goguryeo were the two strongest in this era, with the Turks being the most powerful.
However, the strength of the Turks is fundamentally different from the nature of Goguryeo.
The Turks were strong because they recruited and integrated a large number of nomadic populations in Central Asia. In essence, they were still a barbarian regime.
Goguryeo is different. Although it is a country founded by the Xianbei people, and the majority of the population is also Xianbei, the overall proportion of barbarians is not as absolute as the Turks. It is actually a mixed country of multiple ethnic groups.
Such a country has many ethnic groups but can unite with each other, including the Han people in Goguryeo.
It can be seen from this that Goguryeo's political governance was extremely successful.
In other words, this is actually another Central Plains dynasty, another court that can compete with the Tang Dynasty for orthodoxy. This is the most powerful and special thing about Goguryeo, and it is also the one where the Sui and Tang dynasties have to repeatedly conquer and conquer.
The reason below.
Yeon Gaesumun smiled and said, "General, why should you be anxious? We have admired the general's name for a long time, and today we meet for the first time, why do we need to talk about those heavy topics?"
"Although Goguryeo is not as prosperous as the Southern Dynasties, nor as heroic as Mobei, it still has some vegetation and mountains. General, why don't you enjoy the scenery and drink first, and relax for a while?"
Jieli Khan was startled, but his face was a little stiff.
In the past few days, he and his subordinates traveled around and finally arrived in the eastern half of the Mobei world, which is the territory of Goguryeo.
When we arrived in Goguryeo, the soldiers and generals who defended the city of Goguryeo were naturally nervous at first. After all, there were more than 5,000 soldiers.
But soon...
The soldiers and generals who defended the city immediately informed the leader of Goguryeo at that time and the famous general of Goguryeo at that time, Yeon Gaesumun.
The name Yeon Gaesumun was not outstanding in later generations, because there were too many famous generals in the Tang Dynasty who were too shining, and the surrounding foreign enemies were basically wiped out. Youdao was the winner and the loser, and of course no one
remember.
But if you read the history of the Sui and Tang Dynasties carefully, you will know that Goguryeo is different from the Turks. The Turks are a one-time deal, and they will collapse in waves. But Goguryeo is different. This guy has been confronting the Tang Dynasty for a long time.
The only thing that can endure a long confrontation with a superpower is another superpower.
No matter how powerful the winning side is, it is irresponsible to think that the losing side has no advantages in a simple linear binary. In fact, Goguryeo has been able to confront the Tang Dynasty for a long time in history.
Wise ministers and brave generals.
At this time, the head general of Goguryeo is in his thirties and tall. He...
It’s this Yeon Gaesumun!
During the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the Forbidden Army was the strongest. If you could withstand the pressure of the founding army of the Tang Dynasty, you would know that this guy is definitely not an easy person.
Considering that the country has just been founded, the politics are clearer, the economy is more equal, and the people are more supportive of the court. These favorable conditions are blessing...
You can even calculate that this guy's personal ability is even better than that of Wei Zheng and others.
At this time, a small soldier came to report that the Turkic Jieli Khan suddenly led his troops to surrender.
Yeon Gae So-moon seemed to have no accident and came to greet him personally with a smile on his face.
This IQ and EQ are simply visible to the naked eye.
Jieli Khan didn't feel too nervous when he met this guy. Even if he had to leave the army with a few followers to attend the meeting...
This originally seemed like a very dangerous invitation. Who knows if there will be a Hongmen Banquet.
However, at this time, Jieli Khan had already calmed down mentally.
Our Turks are like this, what’s the difference between Hongmen Banquet and Hongmen Banquet?
However, after meeting him, Yeon Gaesumun was unusually polite.
Such a polite reception made Jieli Khan a little nervous.
