Chapter 38 Chapter 38
The court was indeed arguing about the feasibility of attacking the grassland tribes. After several months of discussion, the emperor's imperial study was about to produce results.
The General Hussars who was personally promoted by Xiao Lie bowed down and begged for orders: "Your Majesty, after all this discussion, the gang of northern barbarians is about to be finished! We must not miss this opportunity, so let me lead the troops to take the Turks from the south. It's over!"
As for the way to destroy the Turks, Ye Xiaoyixian's strategy was to send imperial cavalry disguised as Huihe in the north to attack the Turks when the Turks sent troops to attack Persia, causing the Turks and the Huihe to fight.
When the Turks sent troops with both hands, going west to fight Persia and north to carry the fierce ethnic group Huihe, the imperial court sent troops from the south to annihilate the Turks.
Occupy the Turkic territory, and then slowly eat up the neighbor Huihe.
General Hussars thinks this method is good, he can handle this task by himself.In order to prevent being robbed of credit, he couldn't wait to take the initiative to ask the emperor for orders, for fear of being intercepted by other generals.
Xiao Lie himself is also militant, if he can win the Mongolian plateau grassland with herds of cows and horses, he will be very happy.It was ready with a wave of his hand, and then he said, "Who will destroy the trip to the royal court of Tubo?"
This task is the hardest.In Ye Xiaoyi's strategy, the way to eat up such a huge Tubo dynasty is to cut the cake first, and then eat the cake.That is, split first, and then eat the imports one by one.
The Tubo Dynasty occupied the entire west.There is a large piece of land in Tibet and Qinghai, and the land area can catch up with me in the whole north or the whole south.But it is not a completely unified government.rights organization.
The Tubo Dynasty was called the Tubo tribes 300 years ago, and it consisted of n tribes and forty small states.Since loose.Zanganbo defeated a dozen large tribes, and the remaining hundreds of small tribes surrendered.
Although the history of the Tubo Dynasty is longer than that of the modern Laomei, it is also the current army.A dynasty with great power.But Ye Xiaoyi, who was so bold, dared to touch it.
This courage made the ambitious Xiao Lie stupid.Just about to move, he also made up his mind to destroy Tubo.Who made these neighboring countries restless and always staring at our Western Regions?I will eat you first!
Ye Xiaoyi's strategy was to send assassin soldiers first.Seeking to take away the royal court of Tubo caused the Tubo dynasty to collapse.Without the leader, the remaining ministries will fall into a state of division.
If the imperial court sent troops at this time, most of the small tribes would choose to surrender and surrender, keeping their blood and fire.The imperial court began to eat from these small tribes, and counted as much as they could eat, and saved the thorns that could not be eaten until later.
This is how the Northern Huns were wiped out in the past. When the Huns were divided internally, our court took advantage of the golden opportunity to wipe out the Huns in one fell swoop.
In fact, when a nation loses its territory or is exterminated, most of the time it is divided or within it.Happened during the war.
Whether this strategy is useful or not, once the Tubo royal court is taken down, Tubo will fall apart.But it is not easy to take down the Tubo royal court. They are carrying hundreds of thousands of cavalry, and it is impossible to destroy the holy family.
That can only play assassination and terrorist attacks.Hit, who will go to this task is a problem?Xiao Lie looked around at the several generals, and felt that they were unable to complete such a difficult task.
In fact, in the past few months of discussions, the imperial military department has already discussed a set of plans.Since the king of Tubo is hiding in the holy capital and we can't kill him, can we lure the snake out of the hole?
In the name of His Majesty, he pretended to form an alliance with him, and then arranged to capture him.The so-called coercion of the emperor to order the princes is exactly what they do.
Tubo is still in slavery.During the period of slave society, what they implemented was the system of enfeoffment.The tribes are self-governing, and each obeys its leader, who then obeys the king of Tubo.
But once there is a crisis in the royal court, those powerful tribes will leave the team on their own and declare independence.As soon as they become independent, the imperial court can eat up the obedient small tribe first.Then slowly clean up these countries that have just become independent and whose foundations are still weak.
Seeing no one recommending himself, Xiao Lie, a former middle-aged general, simply slapped his thigh: "I will personally go to Ganguan to meet the king of Tubo, Cai Aiqing, and go to revise the national book."
Cai Shangshu hurriedly took the order to write a letter of credence pretending to be an alliance with Tubo.
Then Xiao Lie asked Commander Ai Jiangmeng: "I entrust you with the deployment of the Ganguan troops, but is it still possible?"
Ganguan is located at the junction of the territory of the Tubo Dynasty and the Xiao Dynasty. When the leaders of the two countries meet, they usually do not enter each other's territory, but meet at an intermediary point. Both sides bring sufficient troops to prevent assassination.
Compared with the hundreds of thousands of troops in Tubo, the Tubo king can always take a limited number of troops, which is much easier than fighting directly.Commander Meng was also ordered.
It was finally time to send out troops, Xiao Lie also became excited.These are not large-scale wars, but a method of fighting in fours and twos, with less damage, a high success rate, and great gains.
Once successful, the territory of the three Rong tribes of Turkic, Huihe, and Tubo were captured, and the Xiao Dynasty would be equivalent to two more Western Regions!
Moreover, these grasslands with endless grass and winding streams are much more valuable than the yellow sands of the Western Regions.People don't need to farm, they can get rich just by herding cattle and sheep.From then on, the supply of cattle, sheep and horses in our dynasty will be sufficient, and the common people will be able to eat meat.
If the people are sufficient, the court's tax revenue can soar steadily.The treasury will be filled, and he will become the richest emperor in history...
Once the treasury is full, he can go west to see how Byzantium and Persia are doing?See if they are still fighting for hundreds of years?
After Xiao Lie ordered the military affairs, he left the old minister Fu Chengxiang to ask: "Old Fu, do you think this west side can be fought?"
Old man Fu felt that this general and emperor was too greedy. It would be fine for the three tribes to fight together, but now he is still looking at the large land on the back of the Western Mountain?
let the army.Human system.The disadvantage of governing the country is that the boss is warlike.It is too much trouble for civilians and subordinates to fight and eat others on their own initiative.
Fu Chengxiang, a bad old man, served as the elder of the three dynasties, and he always dealt with things slowly, discussing and discussing.Choose the most labor-saving method, and let time and other factors slowly resolve the problem.
But the new master moved too quickly and too impatiently, and all the subordinates must speak practically and not in a way. Fu Chengxiang could only use Ye Jieyuan's set: "Your Majesty, the situation in the west is indeed very strange. As Ye Jieyuan said, The terrain on the back of the West Mountain is full of yellow sand, and the water shortage is serious. The bloodshed in the war is not good, and the Feng Shui is not easy. Opening up the Congling Ridge may attract witches and evil spirits.
Your Majesty still waits for the spies to bring back more information, and then asks the national teacher to make calculations, and the ministers discuss it together before drawing a conclusion. "
Xiao Lie also felt that this was the case, anyway, there was no rush to attack the west.The Byzantines and Persians were still fighting in Congling, and the Turks also went to intervene.I'll just wait until they're all down before cleaning up the mess.
Xiao Mo soon received the news that the emperor was going to the frontier Ganguan to meet the king of Tubo and build a century-old relationship with Tubo.
When Ye Xiaoyi saw this news, he immediately laughed triumphantly: "The Ministry of War has a pretty good mind. I only have the first half of my strategy. They can really follow my thinking and come up with the second half, so that Xiao Lie and the Tubo king are both out of the palace. This group of advisers from the Ministry of War has extraordinary comprehension ability."
Xiao Mo's comprehension ability is also very good, and he soon realized that this little thing was actually helping him in the strategy aboveboard, and his courage was unusual.
Xiao Mo patted his ass: "Have you grown enough? Dare to do this without notifying me in advance?"
Ye Xiaoyi was afraid that he would be a beast again, so he kicked him away quickly: "Hurry up, let your Eagle Fort and assassination team go, don't be late and rush to nothing. I will have an exam after a while, and I don't have time to talk to you." You are tired, you should go now."
Ye Xiaoyi has been lusting after this for a long time, Boss Ye feels that he is really in love.Poisoned.Being the one lying down and lying down so well, I'm going to be ashamed to see others...
Xiao Mo picked up his foot, kissed it, and pulled him into his arms: "Wait, hurry up and come back for the teacher, then I will preside over the palace examination for you."
Xiao Mo has gone, and Ye Xiaoyi will also participate in the March test.
The general examination is held in the Gongyuan of the Ministry of Rites. Like the rural examination, there are still three examinations.For three days per game, you have to stay in the cubicle for nine days.The content of the test is still the first test of dictation, the second test of poetry and essays, and the third test of strategy.
Ye Xiaoyi is now quite famous, and he and Wang Yong entered the Tianzihao examination room directly.Both Ren Qifeng and Wang Gaojun were distributed in other examination rooms.
There are thousands of applicants participating in the examination this time, but the probability of being selected as a Gongshi is only 5%, that is, only two to 300 candidates will be admitted in the final examination.
When it came time to take the exam, there were still so many people taking the exam, Ye Xiaoyi just wanted to fuck: who said that people in ancient times were illiterate?If they are all illiterate, how can there be so many vast books?How to explain so many juren who have passed the test in the examination room?
You must know that only the top 100 or top 50 candidates in the provincial examination (Qiuwei) in each place can participate in the next year's general examination (Chunwei).Under such circumstances, how many juren and scholars are there in the whole country?
Ye Xiaoyi can stand in this position today and he has to sigh that he is amazing. He can only work harder and he will succeed!But don't make a mistake.
Generally, if you pass the gongshi in the general examination, you will be safe.The next palace test is only to determine the ranking, basically they will not be screened out.Therefore, if you cross this hurdle of the test, you will be able to keep the clouds and see the moon.
This time, Ye Xiaoyi was going to compete on the same stage with people from all over the country. His opponents were talents from all over the world, with different levels, good and bad.
Because only the top 50 or 100 candidates from all over the country go to Beijing to participate in the examination hosted by the Ministry of Rites, which is calculated according to the number of places, not the scores.
If a place is short of talents, its top player may be able to participate in the examination with the level of Wang Gaojun.If a place ranks [-]st, his level is higher than that of students from other places, and he will not be able to participate in the general examination.
Ye Xiaoyi could only copy the winning method in the previous provincial examination, and play it again in the general examination.
It's okay for him to write silently. He has absorbed the techniques of director Wang Yong and Fu Sheng Sima Xiangru for his literary talent, so he should be able to defeat the current Wang Yong.
Wang Yong, a genius, has a very fast learning speed. He has indeed improved a lot after he gave up his literary talent and specialized in conception.If coupled with his literary talents, it would be like a tiger with wings added.
But after all, Wang Yong only studied for two or three months, not as good as Ye Xiaoyi, who devoted himself to studying for three years.Ye Xiaoyi basically beat Wang Yong completely in terms of the concept of the article.
In addition, Ye Xiaoyi has really learned some of Wang Yong's true biography recently, and after carefully polishing an article, his literary talent can indeed keep pace with Wang Yong.
As for the final strategy, Ye Xiaoyi did his best.It's a fraud, he has a lot of information.
There have been no reforms or natural disasters in the imperial court recently, and there is no need to discuss any major systems. The only hot topic is the way of warfare.All the judges also heard a lot of opinions about the way of war among the people, and the imperial court just wanted these scholars to write down all the opinions of the people for reference.
Ye Xiaoyi's last essay was accepted, and the marking officials will definitely give his next essay a favorable look.If there were no accidents, as long as Ye Xiaoyi's strategy was reliable, he would be able to get the first rank.
Ye Xiaoyi finished the first two exams with ease, and the last round was about "how to govern grassland tribes".Ye Xiaoyi had prepared this topic a long time ago, and started writing with his head buried.
When leaving the examination room, Ye Xiaoyi was pulled by Ye Fangtian to relax.Along with them were Ren Qifeng, Wang Yong, Nan Xiaosheng, and Fu Heng.
That guy Wang Gaojun really pretended to be sick and didn't take part in the examination, where is he wandering now?The painting saint Xiao Lang and the chess king Fu Heng came together by themselves.
It was rare for these students to fall asleep without leaving the exam room. They were very excited, and after the exam, their journey was smooth.That's why Ye Xiaoyi didn't reject his brothers' offer to relax.
But when Ye Xiaoyi looked up and saw the plaque on his head, he could only twitch his cheeks and look at Ye Fangtian contemptuously: "Qin Lou? You brought me to a prostitute. Relax?"
