Xiazhou Shuofang.

The land here belongs to the Hetao region, which was called Henan and Beijiao during the Warring States Period. It was originally the territory of Zhao State and later occupied by the Xiongnu. Qin Shihuang was very talented and generous, and sent general Meng Tian to send 300,000 troops to attack Hu and narrowly seize Henan. However, due to the turmoil at the end of the Qin Dynasty, the Xiongnu occupied a land of Shuofang again. Until the reign of Emperor Wu of Han, Wei Qing, the general of the chariot and cavalry, sent troops from Yun and went to Gaoque, and then narrowed Henan and took Hetao back again.

Emperor Wu of Han was very talented and had moved his people to Shuofang, Wuyuan, Shangjun, and northern counties many times, and he also dug rivers and canals, garrisoned farms, built Great Walls and fortresses. Since then, the grassland peoples and Han peoples have had many exciting competitions around Shuofang. Generally speaking, they are mostly in line with the times, and the strong side will belong to the other side. Until the 13th year of Daye of the Sui Dynasty, the Liang Shidu occupied Shuofang County and rebelled against the Sui Dynasty, and this place has always been under the control of Liang Shidu.

Since Emperor Wu of Han repaired Shuofang, Shuofang has been the northern barrier of the Han people. The Great Wall repaired to prevent grasslands and nations, all fortresses are in Shuofang. The Liang army mastered Shuofang and did not easily block the lifeblood of the Tang Dynasty. The Turks were able to invade the northern part of the Tang Dynasty many times because the Liang army opened a large number of doors.

The Tang Dynasty had long been plotting against Shuofang County, but the Liang army was determined to hold the Turkic thighs. The Tang Dynasty repeatedly wooed and bought them, but failed to succeed. In the current chaos in the Turkic period, Li Shimin thought that the Liang army was a smart person and should make smart choices. No matter how hard it was, the Liang army was loyal to his Turkic son. Even if the Turkics fell into civil strife, they could not take care of themselves, and they still remained with the Turkic.

But Li Shimin, who was in charge, was so angry that he personally ordered the governor Liu Min and Sima Liu Lan to seek his land. He should be separated from his monarch and ministers within the country, and at the same time sent light cavalry to ravage his crops so that they could not harvest.

Master Liang's eyebrows were locked in one place. Now rumors are spreading in Shuofang City, and he doesn't know whether to believe it or not. The generals under his command are in panic, looking like a disaster is coming, everyone is in danger, and they look like the sun sets in the west.

The refusal to surrender to the Tang Dynasty was not because of his loyalty to the Turks. In fact, Master Liang could not give up his power and was unwilling to be a prince of peace and enjoy the so-called glory and wealth in Chang'an. There is also the danger of being cleansed.

However, the Tang Dynasty's move was indeed cruel. It destroyed the fields outside and cut off their food, and attacked their hearts inside, which made them panic all day long.

If this continues, even if the Tang Dynasty does not attack, they will not be able to support themselves.

"You have to think of a way!" Master Liang said to him, but the brows that looked like a ninety-year-old man foreshadowed his mentality.

There is nothing to do!

Although Liang Shidu and Yuan Junzhang, Gao Kaidao were known as the three guard dogs of the Turkic late Sui Dynasty, there were still some differences in nature. Liang Shidu's origin was much nobler than Yuan Junzhang, Gao Kaidao. Xiazhou Shuofang was his hometown. The Liang family has been a rich family in this place for generations and has a very rich family. He was a young man who served as the Yingyang Mansion of the Sui Dynasty. He held military power in his hand. Compared to Gao Kaidao's brave but unscheming, Yuan Junzhang's actions were slightly mediocre. Liang Shidu was considered to be "intelligent and brave". He had been in Shuofang for many years, and he was the only one in the huge Liang family who planned and made decisions and acted arbitrarily, so he could not listen to others' opinions.

After years of hardship, no one has discussed any countermeasures with him today.

Master Liang didn't care much at first, and felt that his subordinates were not as talented as him, so it didn't matter whether they listened to their suggestions or not.

Until today, Master Liang found that there was really no one around him who could trust.

It's not usually the case, let alone the current crisis.

After thinking about it, in the end, there is only one way... hug your thighs.

Although Jie Li was a little overwhelmed with the Turkish civil strife, they did not want to lose the Tang Dynasty's portal. Even in the face of difficulties, they should extend a helping hand for their future interests.

Thinking of this, Master Liang shouted angrily: "Come here, call General Liang Luoren to me."

Soon, a strong man who looked very similar to Master Liang strode to the palace hall in Shuofang.

"Your Majesty, you call me?"

Liang Shidu had long called himself emperor, founded the country and named "Liang", and changed the year of the year to Yonglong. Although anyone has a small territory, he has truly served as the emperor for several years. He attaches great importance to the concept of identity and thinks that he is the emperor and should be unique. Even if his cousins ​​meet him, they should respectfully call him emperors such as "Your Majesty" or "Saint", and they can no longer be called brothers.

Originally, Liang Luoren had a good relationship with Liang Shidu. Liang Shidu was able to kill Tang Shizong, the governor of Shuofang County, and occupied Shuofang County to rebel. Liang Luoren was considered to be the most important and the most meritorious official.

But after Master Liang proclaimed himself emperor, he suddenly became arrogant and the emperor was full of majesty. Liang Luoren was dissatisfied with the feelings between his brothers. He had almost been exhausted in these years.

Because of this, although the two were brothers, Liang Luoren only had five indifferent words about the summoning of Liang Shidu.

Mr. Liang didn't even understand Liang Luoren's mentality, and he still felt that there was no problem. He was the emperor and should be arrogant.

"You can go to the grassland and go to see Jie Li Khan, tell him everything about our situation, let him come up with an idea, or give me some troops and let me go south to attack Qingzhou and Yanzhou, and they destroy my fields. Then I will kill their people and steal their rations to see who will be cruel."

Liang Luoren also knew that this was the only way at present, so he said lightly: "I understand!" and then stepped down.

Liang Luoren walked out of Shuozhou Palace and looked at the hazy sky, but was thinking about another thing in his heart: whether the Liang family can continue to leave.

As a powerful family in Shuofang, the family genealogy can be traced back to the period of Emperor Wu of Han. Emperor Wu of Han used criminals and refugees to serve as troops in Shuofang, and developed Shuofang into the first front to resist grassland nations.

The ancestors of the Liang family came to Shuofang at that time. At that time, the ancestors of the Liang family were still a prisoner who committed serious crimes. Slowly developing, the Liang family developed step by step in Shuofang with difficulty. After a total of seven or eight hundred years, the Liang family became the number one wealthy family in Shuofang, controlling the political situation of Shuofang and becoming an important existence in the local area.

The turmoil at the end of the Sui Dynasty was indeed a god-given opportunity to grow the family, but opportunities often come with huge risks. They were confused by the beautiful prospects set by the Liang Shidu, but now it seems to be whimsical. The Liang Shidu has no emperor's talent or the mind of an emperor at all. The prospects of the Liang family are like the current weather. They may face a catastrophe at any time, especially the current situation. If the Tang Dynasty soldiers attacked, wouldn't the entire Liang family have to be buried with the Liang Shidu?

The situation is so serious that Liang Luoren has to consider the future of their Liang family.

His position was a general, and he appointed fifty personal guards, intending to send a mission to the Turks in Shuofang. Shortly after he left the northern gate of Shuofang, he saw a team of fierce cavalry swarming.

The opposite side held the flag of the Turkic Khan high, and couldn't help but be stunned, holding the trumpet in both hands and shouted: "Who is coming?"

The other party obviously noticed the cavalry team in front of him, stopped one after another, and responded: "Zhao Deyan, under the tent of the Turkic Khan, was appointed as the Khan. Come to pay homage to the Emperor of Liang. Is General Liang the opposite?"

Liang Luoren also heard the accent of the people. Zhao Deyan, a figure who had just risen in the Turks recently, was highly valued by Jie Li and was regarded as his right-hand man. He had left many major events to him to deal with, and he trusted him very much. Jie Li attached great importance to the strategic significance of Shuofang. He lost Mayi and Yuyang, at best, just a shortcut to plunder. Even if there was no such shortcut, the Turks could still break into the territory of the Tang Dynasty for plundering with their outstanding mobility. It was just a lot of trouble, and the Tang army would have prepared. If Shuofang was lost, it would not be as simple as losing a shortcut to plundering.

What they lost was a strategic location. Without Shuofang, they would not want to threaten Chang'an easily. For example, the last time the troops attacked the Phoenix Valley, and the major historical events that were impossible to happen, 100,000 Iron Cavalry attacked Chang'an, and they entered the lobby from Shuofang.

This Shuofang is very important to the Tang Dynasty and is also equally important to the Turks.

Jie Li sent envoys to communicate with Shuofang many times. Zhao Deyan and Liang Luoren had no less than ten times, and they could tell each other's identities by just hearing the sound.

Zhao Deyan still looks like Zhuge Liang, with a feather fan and a Confucian uniform. It was already the end of autumn, and the cold on the grassland came earlier. Even so, he still shook the feather fan lightly, which was very popular.

Liang Luoren was no longer surprised by Zhao Deyan's pretentious appearance. He said politely and asked, "What wind has blown the gentleman?"

While Zhao Deyan maintained his demeanor, his expression also showed unconcealed fatigue. When Jie Li encountered such a crisis, he, as the chief adviser, would not be too relaxed.

At this moment, Zhao Deyan came to Shuofang in person, which also indicates that something big happened.

Liang Luoren was very alert.

"I came here to inform Khan, and I, the Turks, received the exact news. Li Tang had appointed Luo Shixin as the governor of Qingzhou, and renamed the territory under Qingzhou, and included Suizhou and Yanzhou under the rule of the capital, commanding the military affairs of Qing, Sui and Yanzhou, and soon took office..." Zhao Deyan had nothing to hide from Liang Luoren. In his opinion, Liang Luoren's ability was better than Liang Shi, who was very ambitious and had no sons.

Liang Shidu proclaimed himself the Emperor of Liang, but also accepted the title of the Turkic Dadu Vijay Khan. Zhao Deyan called Liang Shidu the Khan.

"What? Luo Shixin..." Liang Luoren took a deep breath when he heard this, and felt dizzy.

Just an appointment, a message!

Zhao Deyan, the first counselor under Jie Li, personally came to Shuofang when the situation was in a crisis.

Liang Luoren, the general of Liang State and the marshal of the army, was almost fainted when he heard this.

Luo Shixin, these three words have produced great power today.

I wonder how powerful the Turks were in the world back then!

As soon as the army came out, the Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty was trapped in Yanmen Pass and cried bitterly with his son in his arms. One by one, the princes wanted to rise and become king. Who had the courage not to say hello to the Turks or pay a homage to the mountain? He honestly sent tribute gifts to the grassland to seek protection.

But it's Luo Shixin...

In just over the past year, the Turks were defeated several times!

He also forced a retreat of 100,000 troops alone. In the battle of Dapanshan, he carried 20,000 infantry to take turns to attack the 150,000 Turkic troops, and won with absolute advantage and defeated the 150,000 Turkic troops.

This bare-handed and hot record has pushed him to the peak of his might and trembles the grassland.

Especially the Turks, everyone now regards Luo Shixin as an invincible beast, calling him "".

This is a Western name, defined in Turkic words as the head of evil spirits.

The Turks are a very mixed nation, especially their beliefs, and have no unity. This is also related to the situation of the Turks. The Turks are a consortium of many nomadic tribes, just like the Huns in the past, whose myths are similar or consistent. Such as the belief in the heavens and the gods of Tengri, the custom of worshiping the sun, etc. Especially the wolf totem, the Turkish wolf totem myth is widely circulated among the Turkic peoples, and almost all tribes believe in the creatures of wolf. However, due to various externalities,

With the introduction of religion, the ancient Turkic myth system was successively destroyed and even annihilated due to exclusion. The creation myths of many nations such as Uyghur, Kazakh, Turkman, Kirgiz, Uzbek, Sarah, Turkey, Azerbaijan, etc., human origin myths, flood myths and other myths were mostly transformed or replaced by Islamic myths, and some gods that originally belonged to the category of polytheistic beliefs have evolved into the image of Islamic saints.

Except for the wolf totem that has been preserved, the original Tengri, Umai, Diyishui and other grassland gods have forgotten them. They attributed the creation of the world and human beings to Allah, saying that the human grandfather made Adan with soil for Allah, and the human grandmother was a good baby created by the ribs of Adan. They stole wheat fruits under the instigation of the devil Satan and were expelled from heaven by Allah, etc., which are obviously directly from Islamic religious myths.

Since this myth has gods, there are naturally demons. The Turks are mixed with the four strange beliefs derived from foreign religions, the most brutal, violent and powerful demons.

Now the Turks regard Luo Shixin as a monster from ancient times, which shows that their fear of him has exceeded the limits of human beings, and they call him a demon.

Arranged as a fierce man like him on the border of the Tang Dynasty, but an appointment had already made Jie Li feel like he couldn't sleep at night. In order to ensure the safety of Shuofang, Jie Li had to send Zhao Deyan to this trip himself.

Liang Luoren was a little dazed. The geographical location of Shuofang was extremely critical. He could use Kou Ruqing, Sui and Yan to be able to use Kou Ruqing, Sui and Yan anytime and anywhere...

But now Luo Shixin is responsible for the military affairs of Qing, Sui and Yan states... (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
