Chapter 335: North Court


Although Yang Yun was knocked out of a front tooth by Xin Wuxian, he couldn't stop his mouth from being a needle at all, and after hearing that Han Zeng was blocked by Jiankun's soldiers and failed to catch up with Queen Youxian, he began to scold Li Ling."

My maternal grandfather, Taishi Gong, once risked death to intercede for Li Ling in front of Xiaowu, thinking that the mausoleum is filial piety, faithful to the soldiers, and wise and brave, and often fights to die for the country, and has the style of a countryman, but Yun thinks otherwise."

Yang Yun is the kind of guy who has a small heart and is sure to repay him, and he has no good impression of Li Ling, who killed his grandfather's silkworm room, and he doesn't care if Wu Zongnian is still in Ren Hong's account, so he criticized: "Li Ling is a famous general, he went out to fight against the Huns, fell the king's life, frustrated the country's prestige, did not die in the king's affairs, and could not be loyal."

Stooping to Yidi, tied up as a captive, can not speak bravely; The mourning of the war is in the front, and the sound of the family is in the back, and it is not possible to speak wisely; The sin is bowed, the disaster is transferred to the mother, and filial piety cannot be spoken, and none of the four can be.What is immortality?

”Yang Yun scolded happily, Wu Zongnian had seen Li Ling and received his favor, and the kind of enemy country that couldn't sleep at night, listened from afar, interacted with Hu Ji, herded horses screamed, roared in groups, and the side sounds were everywhere.He knew best how he felt when he sat down and listened to it in the morning, and he didn't feel the feeling of tears.only said weakly: "Although it is indeed difficult to inherit the name of loyalty, filial piety, wisdom and bravery, but his immortality may be due to the desire to repay the Han Ye, or it may be because the ambition has not been established and the grievance has been completed, and the plan has not been punished by flesh and blood" Yang Yun shook his head: "Li Ling and Wu Jun are different, military law, generals and captains rebel against the city and pavilion, surrender to the enemy country, and they are all cut in half."

His parents, wife, and co-birth, all abandoned the city, and there was no problem with the Li clan. ”"I once got a copy of Li Ling's answer to Su Wushu from my father, and he did say something similar, and he also quoted Fan Li and Cao Mo to compare himself, how ridiculous!

The shame of the meeting is not its sin; Lu Guo is humiliated, and Mo will be able to repay it, so these two don't have to die.However, Li Ling secretly escaped death, so that he lowered his status and was subject to the Xiongnu.Even if he really has the heart to serve the country, when he is like Wu Jun, no matter how bad it is, he can be captured for two years like Zhao Ponu and escape. ”But now that more than 20 years have passed, what has Li Ling done?

But the Han did not know himself, and did not introspect his actions, and made the little king of the Huns, braided his hair to the left, intercepted our army, protected the right king to leave, and rebelled against the Han Dynasty!

And after the death of his sect, Dr.

Longxi was ashamed of the Li family, isn't it okay?

”Yang Yun actually hoped that Li Ling could do something, such as tying up King Youxian and sending him over, so that he could prove that his grandfather's judgment was right back then, and it was a strange injustice to be implicated in the silkworm room."

I see that after he died, not only did he have no face to see Xiaowu, but he also had no face to see my grandfather and Su Ziqing!"

Wu Zongnian didn't dare to say anything more, but Ren Hong stopped Yang Yun: "The difference between the original thought is a thousand miles, and the matter has gone, what will you say?"

However, he was able to find Su Gong's remaining flesh and blood and send it back, which can be regarded as a good thing. ”Compared with Li Ling, who will be controversial for more than 2,000 years in later generations, Ren Hong is more concerned about the details of the two parts that responded to the Youxian King, Hujie and Jiankun, so he asked in detail about Wu Zongnian, who had been in the right place for four years."

Hujie, located in the south of Jinshan, high nose and deep eyes, and the Huns of different species, hunting and grazing for a living, its land is more mink, single than his uncle is the king of Hujie, winning ten thousand horses.""

Jiankun is the same, located in the northwest of Hujie, west of Dingling, north of Kangju and Wusun, for the northwest of the Xiongnu, from the Cheshi to Jiankun, to go a full 5,000 miles of travel, with animal husbandry, also more mink, there are good horses.Li Ling was named the king of Jiankun, and has ruled his country for nearly 20 years. ”These two countries were conquered by Mao Dunshan at the time, and many Hujie people were captured and scattered in the Xiongnu as slaves, and later moved south with the Xiongnu into the Central Plains and became the Qian.Jiankun is the Tang Dynasty, the country in the upper reaches of the Yenisei River in the West Siberian Plain, and then slowly migrated southward to form Gilnes, which is a Kyrgyz people.After careful inquiry, Ren Hong brought his own plan and met Zhao Chongguo again the night before the army was about to arrive in Dongjimi, that is, the night before the later Urumqi."

General Pu, now the right king has been defeated in the north, there are no Huns in the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains, and the east and west are willing to attach to the Han and other states such as the Cheshi, but it is easy to win and it is difficult to defend, and the subordinates are thinking, how will the Han run this place in the future?"

Swept the right land, and beat the right Xianwang away, such a big result, was not expected before the troops, the northern road of the Western Regions is too big and too far, the Han army cannot garrison troops in all places, there must be a trade-off.This is also something that Zhao Chongguo has been thinking about recently, and when he saw Ren Hong take the initiative to mention it, he said: "General Qiang Crossbow has also discussed with me, he thinks that when we give up the north of the Tianshan Mountains and only guard the Cheshi and other places south of the Tianshan Mountains, and slowly operate in the fields, what does Daoyuan think?"

”Then the Huns will be able to return to the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains, and this battle will be in vain.The Tianshan Mountains are the boundary between the southern and northern frontiers, it is indeed too long, Ren Hong and they ran for three months, from Yiwu to Atami, a full 4,000 Han li, but only from the East Tianshan Mountains to the West Tianshan, from beginning to end did not leave the majestic and magnificent peaks skirt.Ren Hong said: "The Cheshi is the center of the Xiongnu's access to the Western Regions, and it is indeed important to accumulate valleys in Tuntian, but it is a pity to only guard the Cheshi and completely abandon the north of the Tianshan Mountains." ”"Because there are two roads in the north and south of the Western Regions, the north can control the south, and the south cannot control the north!"

This is due to geography, southern Xinjiang means the endless Taklamakan Desert, dotted with oases and endless Gobi deserts, even if Lop Nur is still vast, it cannot change its overall aridity, and the population that can be fed is extremely scarce.Scattered oasis farming city-states, difficult to unify.The northern slopes of the Tianshan Mountains have an excellent climate, whether farming or animal husbandry, which can feed more people, and it is easy for a strong nomadic regime to emerge.Therefore, the population of Wusun alone exceeds that of more than 20 states in the oasis.The Xiongnu Right Xian King set up a royal court at the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains, and he was also able to abuse the Western Regions for more than 100 years. ”This situation of controlling the south from the north will be repeated in history, and the Turkic tent that arose in Jinshan stepped on the heads of Gaochang and other states; After the Uighur Khanate was defeated by the Tunjas, it moved from the north to the south, changing the races of the Western Regions; When the Uighur descendants became oasis farmers, the Mongol khans who turned south ruled the land; Until the Dzungar Khanate, it was pressed from the north to the south, and the oasis regime cried and cried for its mother.In the Qing Dynasty, Xinjiang was governed by the emphasis on the north and the neglect of the south, and the recovery of Xinjiang by the old left was also first in the north and then in the south, not to mention when it came to the Republic, the population of northern Xinjiang accounted for seventy or eighty percent of the autonomous region.Ren Hong thought that when he took advantage of the defeat of King Youxian and the escape of the Xiongnu tribes from the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains, he would not leave if he occupied this land."

If you give up the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains because of a temporary difficulty, but in a few years, the Right Xian King will make a comeback, and when the time comes, he will fight against the Western Regions Protector and repeatedly compete for the chariot division.""

For example, this majestic Tianshan Mountain can become the Great Wall of the Han Dynasty to protect the Western Regions, and the states of East and West, Beilu and other states can be used as beacons outside the Great Wall.The land of each state is fertile and the population is sparse, if you can garrison the tuntian, set up a capital in the east and Mi, and control the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains, you can resist the Xiongnu outside the country.At that time, the left knot Wusun is a strong reinforcement, and the right drive Pu Hai Xiaoyue is a dog, and if it is managed, it will be able to encroach on the entire right land in less than five years, and completely cut off the arms of the Huns!

”There is so much resistance to the establishment of the Western Regions Protectorate, and then the establishment of governance at the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains may be opposed by many people, and Ren Hong needs the support of General Pu.Zhao Chongguo didn't express his position immediately, but only muttered: "Your words are not wrong, you are really far-sighted, but this matter has to be discussed with the general in detail by going back to the DPRK."

In this expedition, most of the nearly 100,000 horses of our army died, and the soldiers were also killed or wounded.It's better to do this, when I withdraw my troops, I will leave a song of troops in the east, and I will go to draw up a song of what you said today." ”Ren Hong offered his immature opinions, but saw the book: "Please set up the North Courtyard to protect the mansion." ”"North Garden."

Zhao Chongguo bowed his head and said, "Good name." ”A few days later, the army arrived in Dongjimi, which was later Urumqi.This place is surrounded by mountains on three sides, the north is like a bell mouth towards the Junggar Basin, due to the barrier of the Tianshan Mountains, the cold air is not easy to invade, resulting in the appearance of a warm belt that resembles the Atami, but after all, it is the middle of November, they are greeted by heavy snow, it is really like a night of spring breeze, thousands of trees and pear blossoms bloom.By the way, Brother Cen Shen wrote that poem here, right?

Dong and Mi is the center of Ren Hong's proposal to set up the "Beiting Duhu", the three strategic places in the north of the Qing Dynasty, one is the Ili general, the Wusun of the Han Dynasty, the second is the Balikun, the Pu of the Han Dynasty is the right Xian Wang Ting, and the third is Urumqi.Backed by the Tianshan Mountains, Nantong Cheshi, Tuntian is well done, enough to feed tens of thousands of people, is the best foothold of the Han Dynasty in northern Xinjiang.But what awaited them in the east was not only the baggage troops and the wounded, but also the prince of the small state who was sincerely afraid, and an envoy from the court.When I heard that the two generals of Pu and Qiang crossbow had returned victoriously, the envoy was already wearing a thick coat and waiting for them outside the city in the snow with a hat, and when Zhao Chongguo and Han Zeng arrived, they took off their hats and came to congratulate them with a smile."

Congratulations to the two generals for their victory in the war, and hit the right Xianwang hard, the general expected it is good, the five-way Northern Expedition must be Pu and strong crossbow to crown the army!

Send me to the army. ”Ren Hong followed behind and also recognized him, but it was Guanglu Doctor Bingji, who had welcomed Liu He into Chang'an with him!

As a close confidant of General Huo, Bingji appeared in Dongjimi at this moment, and calculated the time, at least in early September, he would leave Chang'an."

Shaoqing has nothing else to do so far besides the army?"

Zhao Chongguo and Han Zeng were all smiling, but they were shocked in their hearts, and they felt that something was wrong, but Bingji's gaze crossed the two generals and fell on Ren Hong, the edict from the court can only let these three people know."

No other."

Bingji smiled: "It's just that something happened in Chang'an!"
