Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Chapter 104: Crisis
Groups of Luobei captives are queuing up to get on the carriage one by one. They have lost their fighting spirit and become simple and simple herdsmen, just like a group of docile sheep. Due to the large number and safety considerations, Ling Tianfang divided the resettlement of the captives into three places. Wusun City and Huohuaji each housed 20,000 people, while the remaining 30,000 people were sent to Qingyang. .
The soldiers of Mott were very happy to take on the arduous task of escorting them. In their view, these Luobei people who used to pretend to be overlords to suppress their own nation every time have now become prisoners, enjoying the taste of the winners. It is a supreme honor. Although the military judges who supervise everywhere may severely punish the soldiers who violate military discipline, beat and scold captives, even if they pay some price, as long as they can taste the taste of enslaving the Luobei people, they think It's also worth it.
From the mouth of the envoy who came to negotiate, Besan has been dismissed and temporarily imprisoned for review to determine whether he has dereliction of duty in this war, and his deputy Kurdo has also been arrested Dismissal and detention, or the collapse of the east, requires the two of them to bear such a major responsibility. Tuobo has officially taken over as General of the East. When will the nearly one million herdsmen who have lost a lot of their labor and land be reunited? No one will know that Ulanji has been occupied by the Northwest Army and the Motts. The Luobei envoys who came to negotiate were forced to withdraw from Ulanji and start negotiations two hundred miles away.
And the Chidi people, who got the news of the Northwest's victory on the eastern front, suddenly became extremely tough in the negotiations with the Luobei people. The collapse of the east means that the Luobei people have no strength to deal with the two fronts. With the restraint of the Tanghe people in the east, the Luobei people will have to bow their proud heads in front of the Chidi people.
Vadya seems to be a few years older, and there are a few more wrinkles on his fat face. The noble meeting has been going on for more than two hours, but there is still no result. These wastes are only arguing and abusing. There was an urge deep in my heart to order the warriors standing outside the hall to drag these guys out and behead them all for public display, but this kind of thought could only be thought about.
The focus of the debate is still on the negotiation conditions with the Chidi people and the Tanghe people. The Chidi people can be said to be lions. In addition to asking for a huge amount of truce compensation, the Chidi people also demand that the Luobei people release the prisoners of war unconditionally. , and the Luobei prisoners they captured asked the Luobei people to redeem them with money. This humiliating conditional request aroused strong indignation on the Luobei side, and it was naturally rejected. However, the attitude of the Anou people seems to have changed from the previous few times. They want the Luobei people to put pressure on the Luobei side to accept the unreasonable demands made by the Chidi people, otherwise the development of the war will be unfavorable to the Luobei side, etc. The ambiguous language also caused great panic among the upper nobles of Luobei. If the Anou people changed their neutral stance in the past, the situation of the Luobei people who were already at a disadvantage would become even more difficult.
Negotiations with the Northwest side also reached a deadlock. The Northwesters not only demanded the cession of a large area of land as compensation, but also demanded that Ulanji be turned into an undefended town, managed by the joint garrison of Northwest, Mott and Luobei. Secondly, after all, a large area of land including Wulanji has been essentially controlled by the Northwest. A large number of herdsmen fled from their original residences and poured into the central region because they were worried about the retaliation and cleansing of the Mot people. This not only greatly exacerbated the The contradiction between the herdsmen in the central pastoral area and these westward-moving herdsmen was revealed, and the atmosphere of fear and depression spread to the central pastoral area. However, at this time, the eastern conquest was still busy collecting remnant soldiers, but the northwesters did not take advantage of the situation to move westward. Deep down in Li Wufeng's heart, he didn't want to kill his own clan, otherwise, relying on their current momentum and teaming up with the Chidi people to attack, even if there are two more Tu Da, they will have to bow their heads and bow their heads.
And the 70,000 captives are also a great pain in Wadya's heart. If he doesn't want to redeem them, the small tribes in the eastern part of the conquest will immediately turn against them. Those are their children and shepherds. If you don't want to, you can only accept the pain. I hope Li Wufeng's butcher knife will not be raised too high. Thinking of this, Wadeya can't help but hate Nabesan and Kurdo even more. If they hadn't insisted on containing the northwest Developing momentum, interfering in the internal affairs of the Namot people, my own family will not be involved in the grievances with the Northwest people at all. Even thousands of miles of fertile fields.
Seeing the dazed chief seemed to be a little distracted, Doni, who was in charge of internal affairs, had to use a high-pitched voice to suppress the group of nobles who were still arguing, and then said in a deep voice: "Great chief, look at the current situation It is critical, and a decision must be made immediately. The troops of the Chidi people have already adjusted again. I am worried that if we cannot give them a satisfactory answer, they may provoke another time and intentionally provoke a war. The background of the Anou people We have already sent people to touch it, but these guys probably got a lot of promises from the Chidi people, and their attitude is ambiguous, I think they are very dangerous, and we should ask the chief to come up with an idea."
"That's right, the negotiations with the Tanghe people in the east have not progressed. I wonder if we can make some concessions. I don't think those Tanghe people have much intention to interfere with our grassland affairs, don't they mean Did Li Wufeng always want to go back to the interior of their Tanghe Empire? I think if it wasn’t for Besan and the others who provoked them without authorization, they would have shifted their attention to the interior of the Tanghe Empire long ago. It’s just that the Motts are now tyrannical, and they don’t stick to it. Rao, I heard that Gu'er Sufu is now running around Li Wufeng on his saddle, just wanting Li Wufeng to completely defeat us so that the Motts can dominate East Tengger. We can't drag it on any longer. Now Li Wufeng has not made up his mind yet. , if Guer Sufu, the tailless wolf, really blows up Li Wufeng's heart, then we are really in trouble." The person who spoke was Misai, who is in charge of the daily administrative affairs of the clan. He is also an old courtier with considerable qualifications in the clan, and has considerable influence among the nobles in the clan.
"Master Yimisai means that we want to give up our original rights to conquer the east, and make a compromise with the people of Tanghe? How will the hundreds of thousands of people who conquered the east lose their land and pastures? How will they survive? Go on? Li Wufeng clearly wants to turn that piece of land into an outpost of the Mott people, that will only indulge the Tanghe people and the Mott people, make them more arrogant, and pose a greater threat to us in the future!" Tu Dazai He couldn't help it anymore, and he also knew that it was quite irrational for him to stand up and argue with Misai now. Although he won the war against the Chidi people on the southern front, this did not dispel the suspicion of the great chief Moreover, Besan's disastrous defeat on the Eastern Front was indeed beyond Tu Da's expectations. He did not expect that Li Wufeng would be so powerful that he would defeat the 200,000-odd Eastern Army led by Besan in just a few days. , the losses caused to his own side are not even much worse than the last battle to encircle and wipe out Ule, but the gap between Besan and Ule is too big in Tu Da's eyes, but it is also in the hands of the same person. Don't let Tu Da stand up and express different opinions. He knows that the longer Li Wufeng gets his general interest, the greater the threat to the Luobei people will be in the future, although it can't be seen from the current situation that the Tanghe people have any other ideas.
"No, General Tuda, you seem to have misunderstood me." Miser's attitude was very kind and friendly. He didn't want to have a dispute with this general who had repeatedly made military exploits on the Western Front, but this It doesn't mean that he thinks that the other party is very mature politically. He has always thought that Tu Da is a good soldier and a good commander, but he is not so wise politically, and he still can't even see the fundamental interests of his own clan. Where is it~IndoMTL.com~Maybe because he has been the coach of Zhengdong for too long, so he has too deep or even deformed feelings for Zhengdong.
"The cruel reality is before us. Judging from the current strength of our Luobei clan, no matter from which aspect, we should not be enemies with the Chidi people and the Tanghe people at the same time. This is absolutely unwise. For example. Although the Chidi people and the Tanghe people are our enemies, we need to analyze them carefully. Although the Tanghe people under the leadership of Li Wufeng have caused great harm to our expedition to the east, I personally think that Besan should bear a lot of responsibility. It stands to reason that Northwest has signed a friendly business treaty with us. We have indeed benefited a lot from this treaty, and the strength of the whole family has also been significantly improved. Under this environment, our Let this situation continue, while our strength continues to increase. The Northwesterners fought us this time because they felt that the Luobei people no longer seemed to want to be friendly with them. The Mott incident was just a trigger Suo, that's why there is this battle."
"I also think that Li Wufeng's win over the Mott people will pose a certain threat to our east, but judging from the current performance of the Northwest people, at least they have no ambitions for our eastern territory. Maybe the Mott people Yes, but they are now attached to Li Wufeng, everything depends on Li Wufeng's intentions. I don't think Li Wufeng may want to see our Luobei people's strength decline significantly, and their alliance with the Chidi people may not be stable." Misai The words are not surprising and endless.
"Oh?" Almost everyone opened their mouths in surprise, some of them didn't understand the meaning of Miser's words. The Northwesterners just dealt a fatal blow to Zhengdong, turning the whole Zhengdong into his palm. I am afraid that what Li Wufeng would like to see most is the collapse of the entire Luobei clan. Do you think so?
