Chapter 1041: Uighur Forces
"Jinglue has a heavy responsibility, can we leave?" Although Princess Xian'an has some manpower, there are not many qualified generals, so when he heard that Shen Long was going, Wei Yuanfang was of course happy, but he is now As Han Haijun's strategic envoy, he has a heavy responsibility, and this matter is very dangerous, so he still hesitates.
"It doesn't matter, Tubo is newly defeated and temporarily unable to attack. In addition, Tingzhou has a large guard guarding it. I can go out for a few days." Now foreign enemies are unlikely to attack. There are veterans in military training, and the workshops and villages are already on the right track Just do it step by step, Yang Xigu at Han Haijun can take care of it for the time being, Shen Long is also relieved.
When he returned to Tingzhou, Shen Long told Yang Xigu about the situation and asked to go out. Yang Xigu thought for a moment and said, "There were many back and forth in Huihe before, if Huihe tried to harm our Tang Dynasty, it would be a big bad thing. "During the Anshi Rebellion, it was only with the aid of the Uighurs that it was completely pacified. Now that the Tang Dynasty is unstable, if the Uighurs and Tubo join forces to attack from both sides, the Tang Dynasty will be in danger.
At the beginning, Changshou Tianqin Khan usurped the throne because the previous Khan tried to fall out with Datang. This shows that not all Uighurs are close to Datang. Although this Khan has not been in power for a long time, he has not revealed it yet. It was rumored, but judging from the process of his ascension, Datang must not rest assured.
Considering these, Yang Xigu also felt that it was very necessary to support Princess Xian'an, "If this is the case, Yuanzheng, you can go there! Just be sure to guarantee yourself, and come back quickly if you can't do anything!"
"The last general takes orders!" Having won Yang Xigu's consent, Shen Long finally put aside the matter at hand for the time being, and followed Wei Yuanfang to return to the King's Tent to make a big fuss.
"Yuan Zhengda can rest assured about the affairs of the Western Regions. With the old man and King Guo around, those people will not cause any trouble!" Now that Tang's troops have all put on iron armor, they don't have to worry about food anymore. They have plenty of ways to win them over. Divide the alien races in the Western Regions, and resist the attacks of Tubo and those alien races with ulterior motives.
After bidding farewell to Yang Xigu, Shen Long took a group of capable men to make up and dress up, followed Wei Yuanfang and brought a large amount of supplies to assist Princess Xian'an from Tingzhou to the Uighur king's account, and in the cart they escorted , there are not only three thousand sets of armor, but also weapons such as horizontal knives and arrows made of fine steel, as well as gold and silver money that Princess Xian'an used to bribe people.
"Although I have been in the Western Regions for many years, I still don't know much about the Uighur King's Tent. I don't know which forces are in the King's Tent. Please ask Yuan Fang to explain something to me, so I can prepare myself." On the way, Shen Long asked about the situation of the Uighurs. In the history books of later generations, the civil strife in the Uighurs was only briefly mentioned, lacking detailed descriptions.
Shen Long also only knew that Jie Yujiasi brought his troops back to kill the current Khan, and put the loyal Khan's son on the throne, who was canonized as Fengcheng Khan by the Tang Dynasty. No description; now that Shen Long is going to the Uighur King's Tent to help Princess Xian'an, he has to know this.
"In the king's tent,
Naturally, the Khan was the most powerful in the past. Originally, when the long-lived Khan was around, they all listened to the Khan. After the Khan passed away, they surrendered to the Loyalty Khan, but the Loyalty Khan died within four months of his reign. The Khan hastily seized the throne, and they hadn't expressed their surrender yet, and they were all wandering around. "
"Now the new Khan and Her Royal Highness are fighting for these people, but only a few people make a decision, and most people are still watching from the sidelines. It is estimated that they will not make a decision until the dust settles."
Shen Long nodded. Of course he understood that these people are powerful and have many tribes. No matter who is a Khan, they will not ignore them, so there is no need for them to participate in these dangerous things.
"Then the great chancellor was Yu Jiasi. He was already outstanding in strength, and now he has just defeated Tubo together with Jinglue. After sweeping away the shame of the past, it is the time when he is full of vigor, and many people in the king's account trust him. If the prime minister wants to take down the one in the king's tent, he is sixty to seventy percent sure!" Wei Yuanfang continued.
Jieyujiasi was originally one of the most powerful factions in the Uyghur territory. He had been the prime minister for many years and held a lot of power. Now he is returning with a big victory and returning with a large army, which is enough to determine the ownership of the Khan's throne.
"Next there is Princess Ye. Recently, there are rumors in the king's account that it was Princess Ye who poisoned Khan Zhongzhen! She is also the main enemy of Her Royal Highness!" No matter who is close to Khan, Jie Yu Regardless of Gass, none of them would provoke Princess Xian'an, but this Princess Ye is different.
"Princess Ye is the daughter of Mou Yu Khan and Princess Chonghui. Princess Chonghui is the daughter of Pugu Huai'en. My Tang Dynasty canonized her as a princess to marry Mou Yu Khan; after Pugu Huai'en was forced to rebel , Princess Ye is full of resentment towards Datang!" Having said this, Wei Yuanfang also showed dissatisfaction.
Pugu Huai'en was originally a famous general in the Tang Dynasty. During the Anshi Rebellion, Pugu Huai'en led his contributions. 46 members of his family died for the country, which can be described as loyal. Ranked first above Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi.
However, Pugu Huai'en was framed by the eunuch Luo Fengxian in the end, saying that he colluded with Huihe to rebel. It is not surprising that Princess Ye dislikes Datang when something like this happens at home.
"Although Princess Chonghui has passed away, Pugu Huai'en has great prestige in Uighur, and Princess Ye's brother is a Yehu, so Princess Ye is quite respected in the king's tent, and there are also many people who follow her , if not, she would not be able to attack Zhongzhen Khan." Ye Hu is the leader of the branch in the tribe.
The Uighur is a transition based on the tribal alliance. The leaders of each tribe are relatively independent and have a lot of power. The Pugu tribe was originally one of the nine surnames of Tiele in Mobei. After the Turks perished, they became an important tribe of the Uighur. , With such a family background, Princess Ye's strength should not be underestimated.
"The last is Her Royal Highness. When Her Royal Highness married Uighur, Her Majesty sent me to be Her Royal Highness's guard. After arriving in Uighur, Her Royal Highness was deeply respected by Uighurs. After so many years, I have also accumulated some people who are willing to die for Princess. However, compared with Jieyujiasi and Princess Ye, Her Highness is still a little weaker."
"However, with the armor and weapons donated by Jinglue, we have the confidence to fight with them." Wei Yuanfang said so, but there was no relaxation in his eyes.
