In this way, the Zhao army used the tribes in the eastern and central subjugation as the front drive and began to attack those tribes that were unwilling to surrender. In this way, they could not only obtain materials, but also weaken the Turkic tribes.
Although many tribes saw that the King of Zhao wanted to use them to weaken the overall strength of the Turks, they had to do so, because if they didn't want to do so, then they would be the enemy of the Zhao army, and even if they didn't need Zhao army, they would not need Zhao army.
If you take action, you will be destroyed by the warriors of other tribes. You should know that many tribes who want to become a khan and want to rely on the big tree of the Zhao army, but they are not strong enough.
As for Xue Nakhan, the overlord of the Turkic tribes in the past, now all tribes have forgotten to leave it behind. For some reason, the Zhao army did not send troops thousands of miles north to attack Xue.
The royal court of Khan.
In this regard, various tribes have also secretly asked the Zhao army soldiers, and the answers they got were different. Logically speaking, given the current strength of the Zhao army and the decline of Xue Nakhan, not to mention it, just send 20,000 to 30,000 cavalry, plus
The army that took place in various tribes was enough to solve the so-called Xue Na Khan, the culprit of the war between the two sides. However, Zhao Xun did not intend to take action again.
Since King Zhao ignored this tiger of the past, no one in every tribe has ever paid attention to the sick cat. Of course, no tribe dared to pay attention to it easily, except for the area of a thousand miles around Xue Nai Khan's headquarters.
In fact, for Zhao Xun, keeping Xue Nao Khan is not useless. Xue Nao Khan now has no threat to the Zhao army, but Zhao Xun also hopes that this former tiger will be the three he will be sealed.
The Khan, who commanded the various troops, was deterrent. In short, Zhao Xun hoped that they would fight in the internal battle, and the more ruthless the fight, the better.
Although the Zhao army defeated the Turkic army, Zhao Xun knew very well that this did not mean that he had completely surrendered these uncivilized nomadic peoples. It was not an easy thing to tame them. Or, completely
They destroyed them. Or, crippled them and swallowed them up gradually...
July is hot in the summer. When the Zhao army traverses north, the war in the south has slowed down a lot due to the weather. However, because the Qi army, which was besieged by several princes, finally showed signs of defeat.
Among them, especially the Yong army. Situ Lei personally took charge. Even if there were local natives, the local army organized by the Zhao army secretly intercepted them, and was eventually occupied by the Yong army. Although Jiaozhou is not as good as the Central Plains.
The states are prosperous. However, Jiaozhou is located in the southern border, facing the sea on one side and intersecting with the southern countries. In this way, it can obtain great trade benefits. After all, it is occupied by Situ Lei.
However, Qiongzhou Island in the eastern part of Jiaozhou was occupied by the Zhao army. Of course, this is also related to the fact that the Qi army cannot control Jiaozhou. Since it cannot be defended here, it is better to let others stick to it. In the eyes of Murong Cheng and others, let Zhao be
The army's navy appeared at the gate of Jiaozhou. If there was a dispute with Situ Lei, it would be the most advantageous thing.
The losses of Jiaozhou were not a huge pain for Murong Cheng. However, the losses of the entire Jingzhou made him feel a little painful. Although Jingzhou is not as big as the Qin and Han Dynasties, it is still as big as half of the ancient Jingzhou.
This place occupies the advantage of water conservancy, so its trade is prosperous and the fields are fertile. Therefore, the population here is large and threatens to Jiangzhou and Yangzhou to go down the river. Fortunately, the Tang army occupied Jingzhou and did not have a strong navy, otherwise,
Murong Cheng is just afraid that he will really find it difficult to sleep.
Because of the rapid offensive of the Yong army and the Tang army also affected the Qi army's counterattack in Yangzhou. Therefore, the four prefectures occupied by the Xuzhou army are still in a stalemate.
For Murong Cheng, other places can be lost, but Yangzhou cannot. Therefore, the battle between the Qi army and the Xuzhou army in Yangzhou was very difficult. However, Li Chi, the leader of the Xuzhou army, was not a good person. All the princes have achieved results, but he did not achieve significant results, so Li Chi was naturally unhappy. Moreover, opening a gap on the south bank of the Yangtze River and establishing a base area was also a necessary condition for the Xuzhou army to develop southward. Therefore, although it is not the same as The Qi army fought and suffered heavy casualties, but Li Chi still persevered.
Nowadays, Xuzhou is under the jurisdiction of the Zhao army in the north, Yanzhou army in the west, the sea in the east, and the Qi army in the south. As of now, the Qi army is the best to deal with, who made Murong Cheng become all now What about the public enemy of a person? This is also the reason why Li Chi fought to the death with the Qi army. He was worried that once the northern overlord Zhao Xun completed his operation against the Turkic army, he would turn his attention to the Central Plains princes fighting for hegemony. Then, he This prince, who was close to the Zhao army and was not strong, would make the first target to be attacked.
Although the four prefectures in northeastern Yangzhou are under the control of Li Chi, the four prefectures have not been completely restored, and even have not formed a rule that completely belongs to him. The reason is that, first of all, is that This place is in a place of war. Secondly, this is the foundation of King Murong Cheng of Qi, and the influence of King Murong Cheng of Qi here is extraordinary.
But whether it is Situ Lei or other princes, I am afraid that everyone except Murong Cheng will hope to win and lose in the southern prefectures before Zhao Xun defeats the Turkic army or resolves the war between the north and the Turkic army. Come and lay a solid foundation for yourself so that you can have the ability to resist the strongest northern hero in the world.
However, the power of the Zhao army, or the rapid defeat of the Turkic army, has exceeded the expectations of all the princes. Both Murong Cheng and Situ Lei were shocked by this. Especially Situ Lei and Li Chi, they were both against the Zhao army. The actions after the Great Victory were very concerned. After all, both of them were in contact with the Zhao army. Now the Zhao army can move south at any time with the Great Victory posture and enter the two of them.
Fortunately, what made the two of them feel a little relieved was that Zhao Xun did not go south immediately, but continued to stay in the north. After Zhao Xun defeated the Turkic army, he inspected Xiazhou, Bingzhou and Dingzhou, and turned to the northern borders of the three states. Southeast, we are preparing to return to Youzhou to take charge and command the aftermath of the war. However, the Zhao army in Xiazhou, Bingzhou and Dingzhou did not have any trend of transferring to the south.
Even so, no matter which princes along the way, they all sighed secretly after learning about the results of the Zhao army in the north. They all had a deep understanding of the complex mood in their hearts. After Situ Lei learned that the Zhao army had defeated the Turkic army, He stood still for a while and couldn't help but sigh, "I'm better!"
Because of this, the good news that Situ Leina originally occupied Jiaozhou and defeated his old enemy Murong Cheng did not make him much happy. Instead, because of this news, Situ Lei became much older. For Situ Lei, Zhao's army defeated him. The Turkic army has an indescribable significance for the situation in the entire world. And its own body is no longer enough to continue to support the competition with Zhao Xun.
"Oh...it's time to choose the prince. Let them deal with the matters of their children and grandchildren." Situ Lei smiled bitterly and said secretly.
Zhao Xun went from Xiazhou, passed Bingzhou and then went north to Dingzhou. Wherever he went, the people in all places went out to welcome the arrival of King Zhao for dozens of miles. You should know that in these border areas, whether they originally lived in
The residents on the border, or those who migrated from other regions, were all happy and celebrated by the Zhao army's defeat of the Turkic army.
Those residents who were originally borders had suffered from the trouble of foreign countries. Naturally, they hope that the court could defeat these foreign enemies and protect them. Now, the Zhao army has done it, and they can completely let go of their worries and their past.
Hatred can live here safely.
Most of the residents who moved from other regions are refugees from all over the world. Now that they can move here, they can enjoy various treatments from the Zhao army, and have their own homes and fields, they are already very satisfied. But the Turkic people are already very satisfied.
People always have a sharp sword hanging above their heads and may be cut down at any time. Now that this sharp sword has been taken away by the Zhao army, how can they not be happy?
"The people's requirements are actually quite simple, but these simple requirements are often difficult to achieve. In the end, these ordinary people will completely destroy the vast imperial dynasty like huge waves. And this
The huge waves will often be used by those who are interested and become the sword of dynasty replacement!" Zhao Xunren sighed.
"The lord has already done what they need for them? Otherwise, they would not have come so eagerly to welcome the lord!" Han Meng said with a chuckle.
"Yes, I'm moving to it for the time being. The nomadic peoples in the north have always been a disaster for my Central Plains dynasty, and they must be severely suppressed." Zhao Xun said in a low voice.
After Zhao Xun finished his inspection and dealt with some important military and political affairs that needed his own instructions, he returned to Youzhou and returned to his home that had immediately been home for more than half a year.
The whole city of old and old came to greet the civil and military officials. One day, it is hard to describe the mood of winning the battle...
On the second day, Zhao Xun got up early as usual to practice martial arts. On the martial arts field of the Zhao Prince's Mansion, Zhao Xun saw his two terrifying sons. The eldest son Zhao Rui and the second son Zhao Heng are now nine years old, and they are also in Xu Sui
I am in my teens. Because I live in a wealthy family, my two sons look very good, and they are as tall as ordinary teenagers at the age of twelve or thirteen. When Zhao Xun came to the place, they were practicing martial arts with the soldiers of the Royal Guards and Guards.
.
Zhao Xun looked carefully and saw that both sons had a spear, wielding them in a very good manner. Even the spear technique was quite exquisite. As the spear was swung, there were thousands of pear blossoms and the cold light shining.
"Father!"
Seeing Zhao Xun appear, the two little guys immediately came over.
"Not bad!" Zhao Xun said with a smile, "Who taught you your marksmanship? You learned well! You must be a good player when you grow up!"
Zhao Rui shouted: "It was my grandfather who taught us! Father, is our marksman really good? Why did my grandfather say we are still far from each other?"
Zhao Xun nodded secretly, knowing that what Zhao Rui said was Li Luobei. So he smiled and said, "You two little kids have good marksmanship, but they mean that you are at your age and want to become masters.
You must also study hard. In addition, don’t neglect your studies! The father hopes that you are both civil and military, but not brave enough to be a common man. Do you understand?"
"I understand!" Seeing that his father said that his marksmanship was good, both of them nodded with a smile.
"Okay, come on, let's practice guns together. You use guns now, don't just seek moves. The moves are just to make your body familiar with weapons. More importantly, you need to practice basic skills. If you want to practice gun skills,
If you disassemble the most basic moves and use them, you will be able to achieve a certain level in the future." Zhao Xun said while guiding his two sons to shoot, and in the martial arts field, there was a sudden laughter and joy of adults and children...
…
Afterwards, Zhao Xun began to check the knowledge of his two sons. Zhao Xunzheng was fighting outside, so he didn't want his son to neglect his discipline and accomplish nothing.
Then, Zhao Xun told his experience over the past six months as a story to his son. On the one hand, he used it as a broadening horizon for his children, and on the other hand, he also began to hand over some strategies to govern the land to them in a subtle way. After all,
In the future, it will not be someone else's successor, but your own son.
The two armies are in duel! Although the two sons are young, they are still very interested in this kind of passionate story. While Zhao Xun was telling, they kept asking Zhao Xun various questions. Sometimes,
Zhao Xun couldn't answer. When it came to the nervousness, the two little guys' faces began to turn pale.
"Father, why do these Turks repeatedly invade us?" Zhao Rui raised his head and asked in confusion.
Zhao Xun smiled and said, "Because they can't farm, but they don't want to go hungry, so they came to us to grab/rob. In order not to let our things be snatched away by them, and in order not to let our people be
They killed, so the father wanted to completely defeat them, and defeat them until they were no longer able to steal/rob."
"These Turks not only rob us, but also wantonly slaughter our people. Therefore, there must be no kindness towards them. Only by completely destroying them or annexing them can these hidden dangers be eliminated.
"Although I know that it is useless to say to them now, they cannot understand it. However, Zhao Xun gradually instilled some tough views into the hearts of these children. At the same time, Zhao Xun also began to tell them and expand
Pros and cons.
"Father, why can't we accept them? We can accept refugees from other faraway places, why can't we accept these Turks who can't farm?" Zhao Rui asked again.
Zhao Xun was slightly stunned. He didn't understand why a child about ten years old understood this. However, no matter what, he had begun to have his own ideas, which was a good thing for Zhao Xun.
Zhao Xun smiled and said, "The Turks are different from us Han people. They will not be grateful. Unless we are completely afraid of them, and we must gain an absolute advantage. Otherwise, once we weaken, they
They will immediately turn from sheep into wolf and bite us."
"Let's do this, let's tell you a story. A farmer saw a frozen snake in the snow, so he felt soft-hearted. He put the snake in his arms and warmed it with his body. But the snake
After getting warm, it bit the farmer's land and injected all the venom into the farmer's body, causing the farmer to die soon."
Zhao Rui and Zhao Heng said in unison: "This farmer is so stupid!"
Zhao Xun smiled and said, "You all think that farmers are stupid, right? They don't know whether they are good or bad. And in this story, we are likely to become farmers, and the Turks are poisonous snakes. You have pity for him now, and in the future, he
It will kill you! Before the Great Yan Kingdom, I don’t know how many countries were bullied by the northern nomadic peoples all year round.”
"When we are strong, they surrender. But once we are weak, they immediately become poisonous snakes and will bite us hard. Once, twice, when we are strong, we can still resist the venom, but
When we are weak, we only need a moment to take our lives. Therefore, we must not have any soft-hearted thoughts about the northern nomadic peoples."
"Well, so that's it! Rui'er will definitely wipe out the northern tribes when he grows up!"
"So too!"
Zhao Xun laughed and said, "Okay, then let's learn literature and martial arts well!"
The Zhao Prince's Mansion, Zhao Xun and the officials of the Government Affairs Department gathered together to prepare to formally issue an edict to the nine garrison envoys and three tribal leaders.
Logically speaking, such enthronement can only be issued by the imperial court and Emperor Dayan. However, the Dayan Kingdom is now in name only, and no one has taken it seriously for that emperor. At least,
In the entire Zhao army's territory, most people did not take the so-called Emperor of Great Yan seriously. In their eyes, King Zhao was their lord and the supreme existence of wise and magical martial arts.
"Lord, so far, the candidates for the three great khans have not been determined. Especially in the west, there are no larger tribes coming to contact us. Therefore, the enthronement orders of the three great khans cannot be issued yet.
”
After hearing Pei Yi's words, Zhao Xun smiled faintly and said, "Is that right? Let's enthrone the nine Guiyi Bosses first. In addition, I will pass on messages to the leaders of various tribes in the eastern and central areas. From now on, they
We can lead our army to fight westward. We are willing to use the livestock, war horses and slaves they seized to exchange for the food, arrows, swords, guns, salt and tea and other things they need."
"In addition, tell them that among these tribes participating in the war, the leader of the three tribes with the best performance will be appointed as the three great khans, and above the tribes, and will enjoy the blessing of my great Zhao!"
Pei Yi smiled in charge and said, "The lord's move is very wonderful! In this way, they can kill each other and weaken the strength of the Turkic tribes as a whole."
Zhao Xun nodded and said, "One of the things you need to pay attention to is that when trading with the Turks, you must keep a good checkpoint. It is very good to trade. What can't be traded? The Commercial Department must have a charter. I don't
Hopefully, after a trade, the Turkic tribes will become stronger.”
