Although Qin Meng was not there, he had a panoramic view of everything that happened below.
When Abo Khan kowtows on the altar, and then pushes the cup with Yang Guang to change the cup, Qin Meng knows that everything is proceeding in an orderly manner as expected.
Qin Meng asked Yang Guang to show his face, not just because it was troublesome to treat people and things, but because of deeper considerations.
Yang Guang came from the capital and joined him. Yuan Xu didn't even know about this. That means that Yang Guang was directly instructed by the emperor and secretly came with a mission.
This is easy to understand. The court has a lot of disputes over border trade.
The opposing party has its own reason. It was originally a defense against the Turks like thieves. Now that the border trade opens, isn't this letting the Turks in
Those who agree also have their own reasons for dealing with Turkic people on the border. It's an alternative exploration of the exchanges between the two sides. If you don't let it go, Turkic people will come, simply, it is better to see if Turkic people will re-examine their relationship with Da Sui after border trade.
It is estimated that Yang Jian gritted his teeth and implemented the opening of border trade as a national policy because of the three-way army in the northern border of the Sui Dynasty. There were victories against the Turks, and Changsun Sheng continued to have good news to report, seeking stability, it is estimated that Yang Jian's most true thoughts.
Qin Meng knew the historical trend of the Great Sui, stabilized the northern border, and then sent his troops south to incorporate all the Central Plains territory under his command. This was Yang Jian's ambitious plan.
But from the second year of Emperor Kaihuang, because of the large-scale looting by the Turks, Yang Jian even drew the army confronting Nanchen for the war in the north. Let alone how much this affected Yang Jian’s overall strategic layout, it was just because of the war. Money thrown in. It was enough for Yang Jian to sleep.
Border trade is undoubtedly a strategy that can maintain the stability of the northern border. Once Yang Jian's emperor Jinkou opens, he must do a good job, otherwise, for the emerging Sui Dynasty, for the emperor Yang Jian, it will cause too many doubts.
Since it is a national policy, the person who implements the strategy, according to common sense, should be an important court minister.
Choose a person who has a high official position, great prestige, and can control the place to lead Wuwei.
What's very strange is that in the end, this errand was so good that it fell on Qin Meng's body.
After Qin Meng sorted out these things, he had to ponder what Yang Jian thought.
After thinking about it, Qin Meng finally thought of four words.
Guanlong noble!
After the Jin Dynasty, even under the rule of the grassland peoples in the Northern Central Plains, the nobles of the Central Plains also developed by leaps and bounds. By the Sui and Tang dynasties, the nobles of the Guanlong line almost controlled all the lifelines of the Northern Central Plains dynasty.
In the Wei, Zhou, Sui, and even later Tang Dynasty, all the people who controlled the courts were from Guanlong nobles.
Yang Jian is deeply aware of this, so he will deliberately suppress it, hoping that Sui Guozuo will have a long-term future.
Yang Lin and Yang Guang, that is the royal family, and Yang Jian will definitely give them the greatest trust.
As for the members of Guan Long's line, Yang Jian deliberately wanted to suppress them. At the moment, trusting these nobles and their stakeholders is just temporary use.
Otherwise, as an imperial envoy, Yuan Zhou is in charge of the local government affairs in the northern border, and he will not even be unfair to himself who does not have the rank of military and political officer.
After thinking about this, Qin Meng suddenly felt tired and a little confused.
Traveling to the Sui Dynasty gave him a completely different life and a different perception of life.
Occasionally thinking of the life of future generations, Qin Meng missed it more. But never complain about this era.
Let Yang Guang show his face in order to allow him to accumulate credit and connections. Qin Meng would not be like some experts in later generations, thinking that Yang Yong might be better than Yang Guang ascending the throne.
The choice of history has its inevitable and inevitable accidents, and Qin Meng didn't want to tamper with history except for the small life.
"Sir, Abo, the first one has been settled."
Just when Qin Meng was thinking about it, Yang Guang arrived and reported to him.
"Look at your appearance, everything should be done." Qin Meng said lightly.
Yang Guang arched his hands and said, "It went smoothly. According to the commander's instructions, he gave Apo Khan ten iron pots, and said that our people will lead the people of Apo 1st to conduct the transaction. Apo Khan was very happy and immediately agreed. And said that if possible, we can let our people bring things to their tribe."
"Calm. Calm. I only settled the one of Little Apo. What's so happy? The Turks are very big. When we get the Ashi's one, it will be a little bit of achievement, and it will live up to the emperor's favor."
Qin Meng was able to understand Yang Guang’s little pride. After all, Abo was shocked by the first one, and it was a larger tribe of Turkic who had friendly business with the Sui Dynasty. This achievement was not only good for Yang Guang, but Yang Jian was the best behind the scenes. Decision-makers also have the merits of wise decision-making.
Yang Guang looked low-key, but there was still uncontrollable excitement in his eyes.
"Sir, the Apo part shows good, and the significance is extraordinary. This is a very influential tribe in the Turks. Apo part sets an example. On the one hand, it can have a positive effect on other Turkic tribes. On the other hand, the North Korean Treating Turks in the classroom. The extreme controversy of surrender without war can be regarded as an example of facts and we can shut up.
Qin Meng nodded and smiled: "Sacred God Wu Xiong is talented, strategizing, and Wuwei can open the situation. Of course, the ministers are dedicated to the sacred order, and they have contributed a lot. Your Royal Highness, can you finally breathe a sigh of relief?"
Yang Guang was proud of his return, but he was still respectful and polite.
"The chief must not mention the word Jin Wang. In front of you, humble jobs will always be underachievers."
Qin Meng laughed loudly and said: "Don't you hear that you are advanced in ritual and music, savages, and late in rituals and music, gentlemen. Look at you and me. You really are savage gentlemen."
The passage quoted by Qin Meng is a dialogue in the advanced one of "The Analects".
This means that if you want to be an official, you must learn ritual and music before being used by the court.
People with hereditary lintels have to learn ritual and music in order to be an official after being an official because of their family background.
Qin Meng used this to tease the disparity between his and Yang Guang's identities, which somewhat distorted Confucius' famous sayings.
Yang Guang smiled and said: "Sir, the sage also said that if you use it, I will be advanced. The background of the lintel may make people rank in the court, but it is the advanced savages who can really help the poor."
Qin Meng waved his hand and said, "Don't talk about it, you did a good job of receiving Abo Khan. However, our ultimate goal is not only Abo, but the entire Turkic. In this way, in the next time, You leave the reception to Guanxiang. You concentrate on leading Wuwei's defense. Of course, every other day or two. You still have to see Apo Khan like a friend."
Yang Guang frowned slightly; "Sir, are you worried that there may be war in Wuwei?"
Qin Meng solemnly said: "Sima Rangju said that although the country is big, it will perish if it is belligerent, and it will perish if you forget the danger. Apo Khan can be regarded as the precedent of good-neighborly friendship between the Turks and the Great Sui. I don’t want to be as friendly as the Turks. There will certainly be such people on the Turkic side."
Yang Guang suddenly said openly: "The chief's concern is that we are not afraid that these people will be killed by open swords, but we are afraid that they will sabotage and deliberately create conflicts, so that the mutual trust that we have finally built will fall apart."
"Well, that's what it means. Wuwei once defeated his rivals. There are no Turkic people who dare to look at Wuwei. But what about Wuwei? Yang Guang, if you want to deal with Apo Khan, you will take What kind of strategy?"
Yang Guang thought about it: "Although Abo Khan has brought more than 10,000 people, there are also many elites. However, there are a lot of goods traded from Wuwei, and carrying it back to the headquarters will inevitably affect the overall speed. If the humble job wants to deal with Aboko Khan, you only need a thousand horses, choose the right opportunity, and don't hurt people, start with Apo Khan, carry the goods, hit it and set the fire to run."
Speaking of this, Yang Guang thought of another question: "Sir, if someone strikes Apo Khan, it must not be in my Da Sui area, or even too close to the Da Sui border. Then we always have good soldiers. I can't help Apo Khan."
Qin Meng nodded and said: "What you said is the truth. However, Apo Khan's move will definitely cause a lot of dissatisfaction. Asana's photo is definitely the most dissatisfied. If he is really targeted, you say , If we don’t ask, who else would dare to deal with me?"
Yang Guang very much agrees with Qin Meng's analysis: "It is true, but this is the case..."
Having said this, Yang Guang suddenly flashed a thought in his mind: "Sir, don't you have any thoughts?"
Qin Meng approves and looks at Yang Guang. It seems that dealing with smart people is to save worry, the other party can easily understand your ideas.
"Do you know the story of Fenglangjuxu?"
Yang Guang said in astonishment: "Sir, you, don't you want to lead your troops into the Turkic hinterland and collapse in one fell swoop?"
Qin Meng waved his hand and smiled and said, "I don't have such big ambitions, and I don't have such big skills. The Great Sui Guoli did not allow us to do this. However, the Turks have invaded the Central Plains and succeeded so often. Why? Not because of it. All good horses, come and go like the wind? We can't do the opposite?"
Yang Guang was stunned for a moment, and then quickly thought about it.
After a long while, Yang Guang said, "Sir, you have repeatedly exchanged war horses with your friendly forces with the sword and the sword, have you moved this idea a long time ago?"
If you don't tell a lie to someone who understands, Qin Meng generously admits it.
"If you follow the example of the champion, the gold will pave the way, the corn and the horse, the Turks can be broken, but the Sui will also collapse with it, and the gain will not be worth the loss. But if I follow the example of the Turks, the horse gallops deep into the edge of the Turkic hinterland and hits a guy Run, isn't it necessary?"
Yang Guang said cautiously: “In terms of the commander’s strong rider, it is absolutely not a problem to complete this kind of raid. The key is that such a raid must go deep into the enemy's territory. Ordnance is easy to say, but it is difficult to solve the problem.” (End of this chapter)
