Chapter 179: Nanzheng asked about the idea of ​​the sage

Yao Yuanchong did not come, but an unexpected person came, Liang Jishou.

Li Wei asked him in surprise: "Mr. Liang, why haven't you left the capital yet?"

"Why is that easy to leave?" Liang Jishou took a cup of tea before he slowly said. The people of the Tang Dynasty did not know much about the situation in Nanzhao. Indeed, Jimo went to Nanzhao twice. After returning, he was not clear about it when he talked to Li Wei.

"When it comes to this rebellion, we must start with a Mengshezhao in Nanzhao. When it comes to Mengshezhao, we must start with Baizi Kingdom, also called Jianning Kingdom." Liang Jishou came to ask for advice. Only by knowing oneself and an enemy can we win every battle. Dafeichuan has already lost a lot. If he loses again, even Li Zhi is embarrassed to meet with envoys from all countries.

Jianning Kingdom is located in Baiya (Hongyan, Midu County). The king's name is Zhang Lejinqiu. He has three daughters. The eldest and second brothers are married. The third brother is Jin Gu. Because of his beauty, he is also called Bai Yajiao. He is beautiful and also a young man, so he becomes a little more spoiled. Zhang Lejinque went to Xizhou to worship his ancestors. After worshiping his ancestors, the southern barbarians began to sing and dance. Jin Gu, regardless of Princess Jianning's identity, sang and dance with the people. Zhang Lejinque thought he was out of order and scolded him, but the little girl was not obedient and still did her own thing. Zhang Lejinque was angry and drove her out of the house.

"Punish the princess out of the house?" Shangguan Wan'er asked indescribable.

"Those small countries are better considered to be a slightly larger family than those countries. They cannot be compared with our Tang Dynasty system, and they heard from General Liang."

"yes."

Liang Jishou said again. His father didn't care. Princess Jianning was very happy and took a few maids to play in the mountains and rivers. But after a long time, she missed home. Zhang Lejinqiu was also preparing to call her back at first, but when she heard her various actions, she became angry again. So the father and daughter became more and more enthusiastic. Princess Jianning went further and further away from home. One night, she slept under a tree on the hillside. A poisonous snake climbed down from the tree to bite Princess Jianning. Just as a young man named Xinuluo came back from hunting and saw an arrow shooting the snake to death. Then she saw the princess's beautiful appearance and proposed to her. Princess Jianning saw that Xinuluo looked good and had a good heart. She was the leader of a small tribe. She did not report to her father and agreed privately. Later, Zhang Lejinqiu learned about this and made a mature meal, so she had to agree.

With the support of Jianning Kingdom, Xinuluo was at the foot of Weishan Mountain, leading his tribesmen to live and work in peace and prosperity, and the tribesmen began to grow and grow, so the Mengshezhao was established. Of course, at this time, Mengshezhao was just a small tribe, surrounded by Mengshezhao (north of Weishan and most of Yangbi), Yuexizhao (most of Binchuan), Deng Xunzhao (Dengchuan, Eryuan), Shilangzhao (Three Camps of Eryuan), Langqiongzhao (Eryuan Chibi Lake), Shihezhao (Fengyi, Haidong, Saise), Shiqiaozhao (Xiaguan Tiansheng Bridge, both sides of Xier River), etc. There were hundreds of tribes of Cangshan and Erhai Lake alone. Not to mention that the Tang Dynasty was not very clear, even the locals might not be able to understand it.

However, Xinuluo was a very knowledgeable person. He realized that he was not enough. He first appointed military general Guojun, and the civil minister Boluo, and Yang Boyuan, who cultivated and promoted civil servants. Nineteen years ago, he sent envoys to surrender to the Tang Dynasty. At first, the Tang Dynasty was not clear, and believed that if he could send envoys to Chang'an, it must be an amazing tribe. He signed Xinuluo as the governor of Weizhou. Then he let the envoys learn the politics, economy and culture of the Tang Dynasty and brought these back to Mengshezhao. These advanced civilizations immediately grew and grew stronger, and soon became a rich place with rich resources and a large population. He began to establish the capital of Longyan Tushan. Of course, this capital of Shenma could not be serious, and it was probably not as big as a Caoshi in the Tang Dynasty.

When Mengshezhao grew and grew stronger, some tribes became jealous. There was a powerful tribe in the north, called Mengshao, who was once beaten very badly by Mengshao. But at this time, the benefits of surrendering to the Tang Dynasty were seen, and the fight was so hard that they could not survive. So they sent their sons Luo Shengyan and Zhang Jiancheng to the Tang Dynasty. In the end, the Yaozhou General Manager Li Yi rescued and defeated Mengshao, which made Mengshao breathe a sigh of relief.

It was very relevant to what he said. The Tang Dynasty used foreign troops mostly to fight against the barbarians, and against Hu and Hu. Not all the Nanzhao Liaomans who besieged Yaozhou. Some tribes were disgusted with the Tang Dynasty, while some tribes still had a good impression of the Tang Dynasty.

If you want to use the barbarians to fight the barbarians, you must win over some of your subordinates. This Mengshezhao may be an important chess piece in Liang Jishou's hands.

Li Wei continued to listen quietly.

Liang Jishou also said that the defeat of Dafeichuan the previous year was not only Tubo, but also Tuyuhun's army. Now it is known to all the monarchs and ministers of the Tang Dynasty that the Tuyuhun army that rebelled against the Tang Dynasty not only led to Xue Rengui's defeat underestimating the enemy, but also might be the main force among them. That is, the group of wolves siege and defeated the Tang Dynasty army.

What Li Wei did not agree with is not only that, but also the command ability of Qinling, the military god.

The Tang Dynasty helped Mengshezhao, but Mengshuo hated him for joining the Tang Dynasty and secretly defected to Tubo.

Seeing the great defeat of the Tang Dynasty, from last year, Meng Wei issued an edict to rule Meng Jian, the leader and She joined forces with the big and small boonong, and some other tribes, with the support of the Tubo people, began to besiege Yaozhou. At one time, when he was at its peak, he camped for 30 miles, and was known as an army of 200,000 horse stairs.

"Two hundred thousand?" Li Wei asked in surprise.

If 20,000 or 30,000, it would be easy to deal with, but 200,000...

However, Li Zhi overcomes the drought and is not the one who wants to admit defeat. So he asked Liang Jishou to be the chief marching officer of Yaozhou, sent troops from Sichuan, Shaanxi and Long, and allowed Liang Jishou to recruit troops in Yaoqiu and other prefectures to deal with the rebel division. The enemy was still strong, but other Nanzhao divisions, including Mengshezhao and Xinuluo's father-in-law Zhang Lejinqiu, Yang Nongdong, Zhang Yimoudong, Duan Yudong, Zhao Lanyu, Shi Dongwang, Li Shiding, Wang Qingximo and other leaders sent envoys to secretly tell the court that they would fight against the rebels for the court. Of course, because Mengshezhao was the largest tribe and the root cause of the rebellion of Mengshizhao, Liang Jishou focused on introducing Xinuluo.

Because he wanted to send soldiers from Sichuan, Shaanxi, Long and other prefectures, Liang Jishou did not leave Chang'an for a while. Just like Jiang Ke, although he was the chief general of Liangzhou Road, he stayed in Chang'an for a long time because of his military training. He even made the left prime minister of the court and served as prime minister for a period of time before he set off.

As he was talking, Yao Yuanchong and Ximen Chong walked in.

Li Wei asked, "General Liang, tell me about these things...?"

Since even Mengshezhao understood the situation of Mengshezhao so clearly, Liang Jishou was also prepared this time. Unlike Xue Rengui, who blindly came to the Luoshao and even wanted to attack others' cities. Although Nanzhao was a little troublesome, the problem should not be very big.

Liang Jishou said with a cautious expression: "This battle is not allowed to be defeated."

This is a fact, but Li Weiyi was puzzled. Liang Jishou said again: "I heard that the prince is wise, I will come to ask for advice."

"I don't know anything about me, either." Li Wei was amused and cried. He knew almost nothing about military affairs. Because Liu Rengui praised him for a few words, Jiang Ke moved forward and asked him for advice, Liang Jishou moved forward and asked him for advice.

"Crown Prince, don't be humble. This battle is to fight for the Tang Dynasty and for the two emperors."

It means that I went to fight for your Li family, so you can't hide your weaknesses.

It was not so important. Li Wei's arguments were very "foresighted" in the Battle of Dafeichuan. The court secretly adopted most of the suggestions. Liang Jishou knew this. Besides, from sorghum to bamboo paper, Li Wei did not know it, but was covered with a mysterious halo among the people. Nowadays, people believe that if an emperor has the ability, he will always have a full house with light and auspicious clouds. Not to mention that Confucianism does not believe in God, Confucianism also believes in God. He believed in God. In ancient times, the great gods were not the same God. He was just a little bit light on Buddhism and Taoism. Besides, Liang Jishou was just a warrior.

Even if the prince has no good plan, it is good to be able to give some ideas and make up for the missing. This is also caused by Xue Rengui's great defeat and the generals' hearts. Otherwise, if the battle was invincible, how could he be so cautious? Moreover, the prince has grown older and has a good reputation. It is sincere to ask for advice, but while asking for advice, he also won over some relationships. After all, although he was the deputy commander of the Prince's Left Guard, he had few contacts before. For several reasons, he came to ask for advice.

Li Wei had no choice but to take out the map and look at it on the map. The so-called rebellion tribes and the tribes supporting the Tang Dynasty were mainly centered on Erhai Lake, Kunlun Town and Yongchang. There were also a few Kunzhou and Jinsha Rivers who belonged to the Tubo tribes, as well as tribes in the south. But most of them belonged to the tribes of the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, Xinuluo said that the rebels. Here, the Tang Dynasty set up the prefectures of the prefectures, so don't take this prefecture seriously. There may be tens of thousands of people in a prefecture, which is large and only a few hundred people in a small state. When given to a prefecture, it was given to a prefecture, which was considered to be pacification.

Therefore, the Tang Dynasty had to send troops.

But Li Wei looked at the map, and there were names of states, mountains, rivers, and only here, but he didn't know how to use marching to set up a formation. So he had to think about it, starting with Zhuge Liang's seven capture of Meng Huo, but now he has read more history books, and he also knows that the seven captures and seven releases are also fake. In just a few months, the folk sayings Zhuge Liang has reached Northern Myanmar, how can he have time? But in "The Memorial of the Front" he said that he had to live through a barren land himself, but it was not seven captures and seven releases, so he couldn't think of any clues.

Then think about history. Although Nanzhao was pitiful in history, he was caught between the two empires of Tubo and the Tang Dynasty and was furious at both ends. He was not as honest as Dali, nor was he a docile master. He fell behind in the Anshi Rebellion of the Tang Dynasty and attacked the Tang Dynasty many times, and kidnapped millions or hundreds of thousands of people from Sichuan and other places. I don’t remember this very clearly. He took back to Nanzhao as slaves. These people were not as good as death after they arrived in Nanzhao. I can’t remember it in detail.

Thinking of this, he said, "Attacking the city is the best, and attacking the heart is the best."

"What's the solution."

"It's just that the rebels are rebellious and surrendering. Why do they rebel? It is caused by some bad officials in the village and the local officials' dissatisfaction. Therefore, the court most of the time, let them govern themselves. War is the second, and comfort is the main theme. If most tribes are willing to assist our Tang Dynasty, the rebels will be defeated without fighting."

"I'm afraid it's difficult, there's also Tubo."

Erhai Lake is very close to the territory under the jurisdiction of Tubo. In fact, the 200,000 troops in Nanzhao are still a bliss in Liang Jishou's eyes, because he was worried that Tubo would send troops.

Li Wei shook his head and said, "Tubo may send troops to Nanzhao, and it is also possible to use the strength to fight against the various troops of Nanzhao. However, when fighting with our Tang Dynasty troops in Erhai Lake, they may not have the courage to do so. First, the weather in Yaozhou began to become wet and hot, and the Tubo people were not very adaptable. Even if they were placed in the plateau, as long as they were led to the wet and hot areas, Tubo may not have the advantage. Second, Tubo focuses more on real profits, and it is very difficult to conquer the various troops of Nanzhao. If Nanzhao alone is still acceptable, there is also our Tang Dynasty, unless our Tang Dynasty is really over. It is conquered, and there is very little real profit, and it is not worth the loss."

After saying that, he was thinking about another thing. Tubo only won one big game. If he won two or three big games, he might not have been wronged against Nanzhao. Now, it probably won’t be possible. I’m afraid even Lun Qinling himself called out luck.

"Thank you for your guidance," Liang Jishou said happily. He had never considered whether to attack the city or attack the heart. As long as Tubo did not send troops, this battle would be a sure victory. Seeing Yao Yuanchong and the other two, knowing that the prince had something to do and was about to say goodbye, Li Wei said again: "General Liang will definitely succeed when he takes action. But remember, don't be greedy for merit. After victory, he will divide the merits into various divisions, and you cannot let one clan dominate the dominance."

Just one sentence is short, if you are not of my race, your heart will definitely be different and you will not say it out.

"Here!" Liang Jishou responded and left, not sure if he listened.

Only then did Li Wei turn to Yao Yuanchong and Ximen Chong, and hand them the mansion report on the table.

After seeing the two, they frowned. In fact, it was unreasonable for the emperor to report this residence to the prince. As soon as Xu Jingzong died, even Xu Yanbo, the prince might not care about it. Just like the various tribes in Nanzhao, the root cause was still Tubo. Without the support of Tubo, no matter how brave Meng Jian was, he would dare to make trouble based on the mountains and forests, but he did not have the courage to besiege the Yaozhou Governor's Office. In fact, the court was not very interested in the south, otherwise the scope of jurisdiction would have been extended to the Wangmang two tribes.

As Li Wei said, if you cannot get real benefits, will it be possible for the people of Wangmang to push grain to Chang'an with small cars as a tribute tax? Therefore, the court was not interested, and the area was pushed to the Erhai area, and stopped its expansion.

As long as Tubo is beaten to the point of blood, the troops in Nanzhao who observe the wind direction will immediately shrink and will be stable. Therefore, Jimo's words are one principle, and Liang Jishou's words are another principle.

The same is true for Xu Jingzong. Once he died, Xu Yanbo should not be afraid, and the prince was not a cruel person. Besides, Xu Yanbo was dead, but his two-year-old son and a wife. If the emperor wanted them to come back, he would let them come back. If he didn't want them to come back, he would not let them come back. The prince would not care.

Why did the emperor show it to the prince? Is it because he was asking for the prince’s opinion?

Ximen Chong said hesitantly: "Is it because the emperor wants them to come back, but he is afraid that Your Highness will not let them go, so he deliberately gives this mansion to Your Highness?"

Li Wei did not answer.

This is interesting. Is it because I am so afraid of myself? It seems that I have not done anything since last autumn, and my relationship with my parents has been very relaxed for a while. Of course, even Liang Jishou came to visit him when he went to war. He grew up and had a good reputation and was afraid of something. But he would not be afraid of this. Besides, my father did this because Xu Jingzong was dead. Although he was ruthless, he was still thinking about some old love. He gave the Xu family a way to live. But he was just an orphan. Why was this so?

Yao Yuanchong was also puzzled and said slowly: "And it is very unreasonable for His Majesty to ask His Highness to return to Xijing to supervise the country."
