Chapter 163: Close

Late in the night three days ago, the 20,000 elite soldiers of the Tu Bi nationality rode more than 40 warships and flew towards Changlongguan along the waterway.
In the past year, this small town flourished unprecedentedly because of mutual exchanges between the two countries, but the city walls had not yet had time to be carefully repaired, and the army of Tubibe came out abruptly. As a result, it was captured into the city in just half a day.
Fortunately, He Ci responded to people in time and immediately organized the chamber of commerce to give up all their belongings and retreat to the city's mansion. They formed a team to resist, and there were also many guards carried by various luxury merchants. Surrounded by the whole government. The elite soldiers of the Tu Bi nationality gazed at the house for a short time and could not capture it, so they no longer tried to pinch their bones. Anyway, their goal was to be goods, not people.
After looting the southern residential warehouse, the robbers quickly withdrew from the city and sailed away.
The ransacked warehouses in the south of the city are precisely the business districts from Dazhou, but the Beishu districts in the north of the city are innocent.
Beishuo's shipbuilding industry lags behind Da Zhou. Where is such a light fast boat?
Qin Nuo instantly understood that when Wen Miao went to Beijing to negotiate with the Turks as a condition of negotiation, Chen Ye had already hooked up with the Turks. The calculation of time should be after the fall of Cannes.
He was so mad that this was not an ordinary affluent port being robbed and losing some money, gold and silver.
Changlong Guan is where he planted it in one hand, and has a bearing on the tax reform of the whole world.
Handing to this place, he burned his countless efforts at once, Qin Nuo almost hated his teeth and bleed.
The only good news is that He Ci reacted quickly and resisted immediately by association, so that there were not many lives. Otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
The court was also very angry at this matter. Just now immersed in the excitement of Jianye, Beishuo took a slap in the face.
"Beishuo wolf ambitions are not as good as pigs and dogs!"
"It's a terrible crime to commit my territory!"
"Emperor, don't take this lightly!"
...
The ministers filled with indignation, and throughout the early dynasty, the swearing and condemnation of Beishuo occupied all.
But when it came to the point, the question "whether or not to go to war," everyone was silent again.
The war is a hugely costly project. From the beginning of this year, the Nanchen wars have been repeated, and they have been repeated. Now it is difficult to regain Jianye and Kangcheng. The six counties in the south have not yet recovered. There are also several insurgents scattered in the place None of them were completely suppressed.
If at this time, the troops will be attacked in Beishuo. The financial and human resources of the court could not afford it!
In the end, after the anger of the emperor, the group ministers reviled and persuaded after a collective collective scolding.
Especially with regard to the opinion that the emperor sent troops to war, most courtiers opposed it.
The reasons for the opposition are clear.
"The emperor, this time the robbing of Changlong Guan was the Turbi people, not the Mu family of Beishuo. It would not be good for the people of the two countries to start the war."
"Yeah, just before the peace talks with Beishuo, the Mu family should not be so impatient to go south to seek benefits."
"In recent years, the Mu family has gradually absorbed and digested the surrounding tribes, and there have been constant conflicts between several major tribes. The Turbi people are overwhelmed before they jump over the wall and come to plunder our country."
"There has long been a discrepancy between the Tubi and the Mu family. I can't wait to send an envoy to provocate in the middle to drive the tiger away ..."
The courtiers gave various plans, but the central idea was one, and they did not want to start a war, at least not in a full-scale war.
Qin Nuo didn't say much about it, and he settled the matter and discussed it with him.
After retreating, Qin Nuo left Pei Yi alone.
"About the war in the north, I want to listen to the opinions of the general." Qin Nuo and Pei Yue walked beside Xiyue Lake.
Since Ren Jinglei, there seems to be a layer of separation between the two people. Although on the surface, as always, Qin Nuo always feels that Pei Yue has an extra respect for the king, but one less. Forget about nature at the turn of the year.
Because of any thunder, Pei Yue volunteered to vacate his position and surrender the military power in Beijing. As for the northern Xinjiang, well, nominally, the military power in northern Xinjiang was no longer in his hands and could not be surrendered.
After the release of Chen Lijun and his ministers, the North Koreans flocked to countless memorials, blaming Pei Ye for not investigating, leading to heavy damage from the civilian to the military. Pei Ye also pleaded guilty. It can be said that this incident changed the image of the general who was so high and innocent in Shanghang that was hit hard.
Qin Nuo went to his right post as a matter of course, adjusted the position of the Five City Soldiers and Horses Division, but still retained the rank of general, and the military power of the Perak Camp, after a second thought, he did not take back.
Not only to appease the officials of Pei's family, but also because Qin Nuo had a premonition that wars might continue in recent years. He did not want to reform the army too much, which caused the army to be unstable.
In addition, Qin Nuo mobilized some personnel arrangements to suppress the authority of Pei's pulse, but on the whole, he adopted a liberal approach. Even for the new soldier, Shang Shuzhuo Xinwu, despite being impeached and ashamed, Qin Nuo did not transfer him after he ordered the reprimand.
Qin Nuo actually used his brain to want Zhan Ziping to take over the position of the Ministry of War and then hand over Pidongying to Fang Yuan. But Zhan Ziping resigned, and was firm. Reactive power is not affected. In his opinion, it was not that he was able to capture Jianye properly, but because of the new weapon of the Gewu Division, he could not accept such a leapfrog.
Qin Nuo understood his personality. After thinking about it, he was only allowed to take the post of Zuo Lang, the soldier of the Ministry of Defense, and the military power of Pidongying remained unchanged.
In Jianye's First World War, rewards for merit still remain the focus of attention.
Zhan Ziping, as the second general to capture Jianye, and Jia Pi, Huo Feimao, and others during the First World War in Kangcheng contributed a lot. Da Zhou's rewards for military merit have always been generous.
At the same time, the punishment for the defeat of the southern army was also carried out. The courts and the courts have not heard how many lawsuits have been fought for the two major events in the past few days.
Qin Nuo didn't pay too much attention to these, all his current attention is focused on Beishuo's movement.
"It's not the best time to start a war," Pei said frankly.
Qin Nuo understands that the opinions of the ministers were reasonable before the early dynasty. Even Qin Nuo himself was not ready to meet Beisuo Bingrong so quickly.
"There is a sign of disagreement between the royal family of Beishuo and the Tube nationality over the years. If they mediate properly, they can really take advantage of the fishermen," Pei continued.
After Qin Nuo's ascension, he also made a lot of compensation for Beishuo's local culture.
Beishuo is regarded as a multi-tribal coalition regime, and there are hundreds of clans forming this behemoth. Among them, there are a few seven or eight million people and a few million more. There were more than a dozen of the most powerful tribes headed, and they took turns to compete for the position of leader. Until a few decades ago, the Mu family had produced an incredible hero, and many tribes fell to their knees, begging for mercy. Eventually, he emulated the Central Plains and became the emperor in the Central Plains, becoming the royal family inherited forever.
In the earliest days of the founding of the People ’s Republic, in addition to the Mu family, there were five major clans, each with hundreds of thousands of soldiers. These clans were effective in time, or they were allies and in-laws. The status of the fissure-seal king.
However, in these years, Mu has used various methods to continuously weaken the rights of local tribes and strengthen centralization. Most of the five tribes with exuberant scenery in the past have perished or reduced to small and medium tribes. Today, there are only two left, one Tubi in the east and one Fei in the west. Not to mention the rest of the tribe that was originally weak, looking to the royal family for their lives.
The Tubi and the Mu family have a close relationship. Several early queens were from the Tubi family, and the blood between the two sides was inseparable. However, in recent years, it is not clear whether it is a coincidence. The Turks and concubines entering the palace are not very favored, and their children are few. Including the former emperor of Beishuo, who had been in the palace for ten years until his death, he did nothing. Bei Shuo's current prince is the successor of the emperor. She is the daughter of the court of the Mourns and won the favor of the emperor, but died a few years ago.
The territory of the Turbi is in the easternmost part of Beishuo. Several major cities rely on the sea. The people in the tribe are not only good at horse hunting, but also fishing. For the bandits on the Jingping sea, they are equipped with a sailor team. Unfortunately, they are poorly equipped. Even Da Zhou is far behind, let alone compared with Nan Chen.
It is also this way that the Turks will sail the naval battleship of Nanchen.
"Pei Qing believes that the so-called good offices, how should we proceed?"
Pei Yue slightly groaned and said, "The Mu family may not be pleased by the Tu Bi's attack on Changlongguan. Over the years, the Mu family has used various means to gather their rights and weaken the local tribe. The Tu Bi occupied The entrance to the east of Beishuo not only has a rich pasture, but also a vast ocean, strong strength, and rich people's livelihood. In these years, the Mu Family of Beishuo has been watching, and there have been signs of disagreement between the two sides. Maybe it's a temptation. "
"The meaning of the general, I understand." Qin Nuo nodded.
Going around and talking about it, Pei Yue means the same as courtiers, but also wants to use the Mu family to suppress the Turks and seek benefits, not to start an immediate war.
They briefly talked about two more political affairs, and Pei Yi resigned.
Out of the gate of Qianyuan Hall, walking on the corridor in the palace, Shang Shuzhuo Xinwu welcomed him.
He came to present the proposed list of meritorious deeds for the Nanchen War, met Pei Ye, bowed down and saluted, and asked, "The general has seen the emperor."
Pei Yue already read this list of meritorious deeds and sighed, "The emperor is in a bad mood. I'm afraid I'm not interested in watching these. You can simply report."
"Is the emperor still angry at Beishuo's looting of Changlongguan? In fact, Changlongguan's damage is not too heavy." Zhuo Xinwu said distressedly. He was an officer from northern Xinjiang. After working hard in the frontiers for two or three decades, he has already been used to the hungry wolves in Beishuo who beat grass valleys every year and plundered the local cities. There have been several times more severe than this time, several cities have been looted, and hundreds of thousands of people have been slaughtered. In comparison, Changlongguan actually lost a lot of money. Although the money was lost a lot, everyone managed to keep it.
The accompanying Governor of the Dou De'an shook his head and said, "Where is the emperor's hard work, can it be compared with ordinary cities?"
These guys can't catch the point at all!
Pei Yi glanced at the two, and sighed helplessly: "Go back and prepare as soon as possible."
"What to prepare?" Dou Dean asked.
"Prepare for battle," Pei Min said flatly. This battle is inevitable.
After speaking, I stopped talking and went straight out of the palace.
Standing on the corridor, Dou De'an was surprised: "All adults in the central government advised to listen to the explanation of the Beishu court? The official script has not yet been prepared."
Zhuo Xinwu smiled bitterly: "It seems that this battle is really inevitable."
The general understands the majesty of the young emperor in the palace far better than anyone.
The sky was gloomy. Since the beginning of winter, there have been few good days.
A snowstorm has been brewing for many days, but hesitant to land on earth.
The gloomy sky makes people wonder how the violent scene will be when the snowstorm really comes.
In the early morning, Qin Nuo complied with the suggestions of the ministers and sent an envoy to send the credentials.
Beishuo's reply was faster than expected.
Just a dozen days later, the ambassadors quickly entered Beijing. Compared with the previous thousands, the ambassadors made light trips. Dozens of people galloped and arrived under the of the northern Xinjiang elite. .
Led by the old acquaintance Han Guangzhao.
He brought a reply from the emperor Beishuo. The confession of confession first scolded the Tubi people first, denounced this group of barbaric tribes who refused to accept the king to destroy the long-standing friendship between the two countries and threatened the business in full swing of the two countries. Later, he put the facts to reason and showed that the central court of Beishuo had no idea about this matter. The collusion with the Nanchen Candid Party was completely the Turks' own choice.
After shoving the entire responsibility away, the conversation turned, and it was said that the two countries were about to conclude Qin and Jin soon. Once married to Her Royal Highness Princess, then, jurisprudentially and emotionally, the Beishu court could not ignore the anger of her family. Willing to send envoys to help Da Zhou suppress the ambitious Turbis together, at least forcing them to surrender the asylum-stricken Nanchen Cantonese.
The entire Guoshu language is euphemistic and polite, but the true intention is very clear.
They can assist in suppressing the Turbi people. After all, the Turbi people's power has expanded too quickly over the years. Letting them continue to grow is also a threat to the central court.
But Beishuo put forward a condition.
Thirteen princess Qin Hui immediately kissed and kissed!
Qin Nuo stowed the Guoshu blandly, and he didn't even question. Three years and a half originally said that it was good, but now less than half, how can't wait to destroy Qian Nuo. Just asked with a smile: "How does your country say that the Turks are ordered to apologize, how do you express this apology?"
Han Guangzhao respectfully said: "The South Chen chaos party was originally a thief chased by your country. It is a matter of your country. Beishuo should not intervene. I am willing to issue an edict to the Heavenly Son and order the Turbi people to expel the Nan Chen people immediately."
"So what about the navy fleet that accompanied the Chen brothers northward?"
"The sailor and my Beishuo are useless. Theoretically, they should be expelled together. But the Turbi people have been increasingly embarrassing these years, and they may not obey the instructions." Han Guangzhao said helplessly.
Qin Nuo sneered: "I have heard of the emperor of your country for a long time, and he has countless meritorious deeds. Over the world, is there any place where the order is not good?"
Han Guangzhao sighed: "The emperor's young man succeeded to the throne, knowing the difficulty of governing. My local tribe in Beishuo has many unscrupulous people, and the country is helpless. The Tubi people have been growing in size over the years, and they are unwilling to accept the court. More than ten years ago, they arbitrarily sent troops to attack the Xuelie tribe, annexing its territory and its people. The court was also angry. "And laughed," If you can see that these clans are overwhelmed, it is actually the court's pleasure. "
Qin Nuo pressed harder and harder: "In that case, if the puppet sent an army and went north to conquer, and seized the damage in the Changlong Temple, would the emperor of your country be happy to see it happen?"
"This ..." Han Guangzhao blinked his eyes and laughed, "The Turbi people have acted too much this time, and they have caused trouble. It is a matter of course if they learn a short lesson. Besides, even if they don't care about the relationship between the two countries, they must always look at the empress's face Come on. "
Qin Nuo looked at him and laughed suddenly: "I understand."
The position expressed by Han Guangzhao is very clear.
Da Zhou was asked to marry the princess, and in exchange for the marriage between the two countries, Beishuo was willing to help suppress the Turbis. Of course, this assistance was just a will to reprimand, or Chen Bing's praise at the border. As for whether the Tubi people are willing to obey the will and hand over the Nan Chen Candid Party and the Marine Warship, it still depends on Da Zhou's wrist.
The key point is that Beishuo promised an important position. If Dazhou sent troops to conquer the Tu Bi, teach this rampant tribe that they would like it to happen and they would not interfere. This point is the most important.
After a few meetings, Han Guangzhao retreated. Qin Nuo ordered the ceremony to entertain the envoys in accordance with the rules.
