Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty Chapter 1967: Big traitor, comfort!
Pi Xia Ke
Li Zexuan did not expect that the teachers and students of the academy would encounter such a big crisis in Taiyuan City. He expected that the Turkic people would get in the way after learning the purpose of the people of the academy to go north, but according to his expectation, the Turkic people would have the most Maybe it was in Yunzhou. After all, it was located on the border of Datang and the emperor was far away. But he never expected that the Turks would throw the "king bomb" directly in Taiyuan City. Shouldn't they first try in Taiyuan City? False and true, and then launch a "lore" in Yunzhou?
This series of actions by the Turkic spies is unreasonable, but because of this, they caught everyone by surprise!
However, Li Zexuan did not expect that his old father-in-law would intercept the secret letter of the Turkic spies in a crooked manner. This is too critical. If it were not for this crooked act, the situation of the teachers and students of the college would only be more passive, even they You don't even know who the enemy you are facing, let alone deal with it!
Of course, what Li Zexuan didn't expect most was that the leader of Turkic spies was actually Zhao Deyan!
Although he is not familiar with history in his previous life, he still heard about Zhao Deyan! This guy is the number one traitor in the Tang Dynasty!
Compared with other traitors in history, Zhao Deyan, a traitor, did not leave much infamy in the history books. On the contrary, many people in the Central Plains even have a good impression of him. The main reason is that the traitor is Zhao Deyan. When he was not "qualified", if he counted his deeds in the Turks, not only did he fail to help the Turks, but to a certain extent, he helped Datang instead!
The TV series "The Reign of Zhen Guan", about Jie Li's description of Zhao Deyan, is very interesting. Zhao Deyan turned out to be the governor of the Tang Dynasty. Li Shimin discovered that he was good at flattering and had no real ability to learn, so he decided to let him harm the Turks.
Li Shimin first withdrew Zhao Deyan's position as the governor, and then asked Zhao Deyan to accompany the Tang delegation to the Turks. After Zhao Deyan arrived in Turks, he slid his beard and beat a horse, making Jieli Khan feel very useful, so he decided to reuse Zhao Deyan. In order for Zhao Deyan to serve Jieli wholeheartedly, Li Shimin sent Zhao Deyan's family to Turks.
The official history is limited by space, and there is no record of how Jie Li Khan got Zhao Deyan. "Zi Zhi Tong Jian Volume 192" only records that "Jie Li Khan was awarded the Chinese Zhao Deyan and appointed it."
East Turks maintained absolute superiority over almost any force at the end of the Sui Dynasty and the beginning of the Tang Dynasty. In 615 AD, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, who still regarded himself as an emperor through the ages, traveled north to the Yanmen area. The Turkic cavalry, who received the news, took the opportunity to march south. They have broken through all the way, conquering most of the area near Yanmen. Sui Yang Emperor was in a panic, hiding in Yanmen County for a while. The Turkic army immediately blocked the city and launched a siege. In the fierce battle, the arrows of the Turkic people once shot to Sui Yang Emperor. Sui Yang, who was invincible on weekdays, was scared to tears after facing the pressure of the battlefield with real swords and guns. As the Turkic offensive intensified, Yang Guang, who was terrified, cried until his eyes were swollen.
After this war, the East Turkic Khanate became more prestigious and became the overlord of the grasslands of Northeast Asia at that time. At their peak, they expanded their territory to the vast area between the Khitan and Shiwei tribes in the east and Tuyuhun and Gaochang in the west. The chiefs of the tribes and the monarchs of the small countries all surrendered to the East Turkic Khan.
After the fall of the Sui Dynasty, the East Turks became more and more popular. At that time, the warlords in the northern part of the Central Plains more or less had transactions with the East Turkic Khanate. It also includes the Tang Gaozu Li Yuan who was based in Shanxi. He even did not hesitate to proclaim his ministers to the Turks, so that when he attacked Chang'an, he borrowed five hundred Turkic cavalry. Through this method of pretending to be invincible, put great pressure on the opponent.
The power of the East Turks is becoming stronger and stronger, and even seeing the capital that threatens the Tang and the Central Plains is already there, but for the Khan Jieli of the East Turks, there is always a heart disease, he longs for the supremacy of Li Yuan and Li Er Power!
When the Turkic forces started, the mode of rule was quite simple. Other nobles under the Khan also have considerable power. In their respective tribes, they retained their original customary laws without interference from the Khan. The privilege of life and death possessed by the emperor of the Central Plains in the country was just a longing for the Turkic Khan.
So Jie Li Khan appointed Zhao Deyan, a Han man who had fled to the grassland, to carry out drastic political reforms for him. Jie Li hopes to strengthen his power and completely unify the tribes that have autonomy rights.
The appointed Zhao Deyan also fulfilled his mission. He moved the Central Plains dynasty's methods of ruling the world to the grassland intact. As a result, the Khan carried out a compulsory "sinicization reform" for the Turks.
At that time, the Central Plains Dynasty had a very advanced national management system. For example, three provinces and six departments, two-level administrative system of state and county, and so on. This system is indeed much more advanced than the Turkic administrative system.
The crux of the problem is that this advanced system is suitable for farming-based China, but not suitable for nomadic Turks. It is like a strict personnel system, suitable for large companies, but not suitable for some small private enterprises. The Great Khan Jieli didn't understand this truth, so Zhao Deyan had full power to promote the reform of the Turkic administration.
But the Turkic tribes have long been accustomed to simple, rude and effective administrative methods. They had a great resistance to Zhao Deyan's reforms. In order to promote the smooth progress of the reform, Zhao Deyan used the power given by the Jieli Great Khan to suppress the Turkic tribes who opposed the reform. Zhao Deyan's reforms were pushed forward amidst numerous resistances, which aroused the dissatisfaction of the Turkic people with the Jieli Khan.
This incident is recorded in "Zizhi Tongjian Volume 192". The original text is "German language focuses on its prestige, often changes the old customs, and the government is annoying, and the people are not happy."
Zhao Deyan copied China's administrative methods to complicate simple issues, causing all the Turkic tribes to complain about the Jieli Khan. With Zhao Deyan's help, many Turks are unwilling to work for the Jieli Great Khan. Tribes with conditions and opportunities have begun to find ways to escape Jieli's control, and some even went directly to the Tang Dynasty, for example. A few months ago, the leader of the Khitan tribe led the tribe to defect to Datang. A large part of the reason was that Jie Li had begun to renounce his virtue on the grassland!
So, to some extent, although Zhao Deyan is a big traitor, he is a "big traitor" who made great contributions to Li Er!
The rolling wheels of history did not change the direction of advancement because of Li Zexuan's accidental crossing, but because of Li Zexuan's "butterfly wings", some changes appeared out of thin air!
For example, without him, there would be no Yanhuang Academy, no telegraph relay station built by the teachers and students of the current academy, and there would be no Turkic spies lying in Taiyuan and capturing Li Tai!
Of course, without him, Han Lizheng would not have gone to Yifang County, and naturally would not accidentally intercept the superstition that Zhao Deyan passed on to Jie Li!
However, the most unexpected variable for Li Zexuan is that according to official history, Zhao Deyan should help Jieli carry out the "Sinicization reform" on the grassland at this moment. How could he appear in Taiyuan? And with a bunch of Turkic spies? If the "Minister of Reform" does not do a good job, why does this guy become the leader of the "secret"?
"DiDiDiDi~!"
The ticking sound of the telegraph machine still kept ringing~IndoMTL.com~Li Zexuan hurriedly retracted his thoughts and continued to listen to the telegram sent by Tiedan.
In this last part of the telegram, Tiedan is asking him for advice on how to rescue Tiedan!
"Master, when Qingque was taken away, let me find you. He said you must have a way to save him, and he also asked Master to give him a plan! Even if you go through fire and water, I will definitely save Qingque!"
Looking at the last sentence of Tie Dan, Li Zexuan couldn't help being silent. Regarding Li Tai’s unreserved trust in him at a critical moment, Li Zexuan could not help but be a little moved, but the firm tone of Tie Dan’s words, But it made his heart tense. Obviously, Tiedan blamed most of the responsibility for Li Tai's arrest on himself. In order to rescue Li Tai, he seemed to be completely disregarded for his own safety!
Li Zexuan didn’t want Li Tai to have an accident, but he didn’t want it to happen to the iron egg. One of the two children was one of his most proud students, who won most of his true biography, and the other was his direct disciple. In addition to my brother-in-law, it is difficult for him to accept any accident. After taking a deep breath, Li Zexuan manipulated the telegraph and replied to Tiedan
"Tonight, I have anticipated the matter for the teacher. You should have a good rest first. Don't act rashly. The rescue has been arranged for the teacher. There will be nothing wrong with the blue bird~!"
