Summoning the Peak of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 2723 The fleeing faction split and returned, Kublai Khan secretly intervened
Chapter 2719: The Fleeing Faction Splits and Returns, Kublai Khan Intervenes Secretly
Under Yelusu's persuasion, Yelu Deguang gave up directly opposing the Sui Dynasty, and then directly ordered the expansion of troops, recruiting Qiang veterans and young and strong soldiers, and formed an army of 3 in a short period of time, and the number is still growing .

At the same time, the Sinicization faction headed by He Lou Zigan and Han Yanhui, and the Qiang traitor faction headed by Yelu Lage and Yelu Diel are also aggressively expanding their power.

To this, the Sui government not only did not respond at all, but gave it the green light to encourage the Qiang people under its rule to join their army and serve the country.

For a time, the entire Haizhou was under the influence of the Qiang people, and they were all brazenly expanding their army.

Of the four major factions of the Qiang people, apart from the fleeing faction, among the other three factions, the dormant faction is the strongest.

Yelu Deguang was able to quickly unify the dormant faction, and in just a few days, he formed an army of two or three people, and the number continued to grow. .

But when the army was formed, more and more troubles followed.

During Yelu Deguang's hard work, although he secretly built and bought a lot of weapons and equipment to prepare for the restoration of the country in the future, it was barely enough to equip 3 people, and he couldn't afford it no matter how many people there were.

However, due to the great pressure brought by the Great Qin Dynasty, Yelu Deguang planned to recruit [-] troops, and according to this momentum, they would soon be fully recruited, but the weapons and equipment for the extra [-] troops were still available.

After the Qiang people, the army was paid, and they only took care of the food for the soldiers, and they counted as much as they could grab.

Among all the countries, Xiao Qin's military pay is the lowest. The Sui State's military salary is one tael to seven silver per month, while the Central Plains countries are all between one tael and seven to one tael.

Just when the Qin army's tolerance for the fleeing faction reached the extreme, Yelu Chucai stepped forward, took advantage of the gap between the torment and the Qin army's internal strife, led the Qiang people to support and helped Kublai Khan secure the throne, and became Kublai Khan's confidant and think tank saved the fleeing faction from being completely engulfed by the Qin army.

Now the Qiang fleeing faction has united into two factions: the return faction and the Yuanhua faction.

Of course, the reason why Xiaoqin’s taxes are so low is that apart from internal factors such as the improvement of total social productivity promoted by technology, and internal governance mining, he opened up sea trade to find customers everywhere to sell various commodities such as armaments, and colonized Yingzhou. And other internal factors, the proportion of Xiaoqin's fiscal revenue is also very small.

When Yelu Chucai heard those words, he was so moved that he almost shed tears. He knelt down and said, "Your Majesty has a heart that has never been seen in ancient times. I bow to you."

But now the same one mu of land can't grow less food

I let Yelv Shilu and the others leave because I really cared about betrayal, but wanted to use those people to support Yuan Meng and create trouble for Xiao Qin and Mie Sui.
Looking at Kublai Khan, who turned his back to him, but with a calm and calm face, who was not angry at all because of betrayal, Yelu Chucai felt that beating and scolding Yelu Shilu and others was flattering him.

The days before the fleeing faction turned to the Qin army were not bad. Just look at the appearance of the Murong family before the surrender. Murong Ke was the only one who was almost dead and was really accepted. How could it be so difficult? What about the Shaoqiang people?

Regarding this, Jiang Ya didn't respond at all, but instead sent a canonization edict

"Forget it, our hearts are not in Xiaoyuan anymore, and those who can keep us will also keep their hearts."

The development of civilization is the same, and the productive forces of society are completely the same.

Yelu Deguang was naturally overjoyed when he learned that Yelu Shilu would return with a small army of [-], and quickly sent a message to Yelu Shilu to let him return as soon as possible to avoid long nights and dreams. Kublai Khan's stingy personality is a hair, if it is possible to release Yelv Shilu back.

Before Xiaohan became chaotic, low-yield grain, looms, papermaking, steelmaking, etc., new technologies that can promote social productivity in a small way appeared.

If Yelu Deguang could give his soldiers the highest treatment of one tael of silver per month, he would probably get the support of the Qiang people, let alone the small cause of restoring the country.

Little Qin obviously only occupies half of the country, but the financial income is several times that of Xiaohan who sits in eighteen states. The reason is that the level of civilization development is completely the same.

Therefore, before receiving the summons from Yelu Deguang, the faction headed by Yelu Shilu, Yelu Xiuge, Yelu Helu, and Yelu Xiezhen, who were accepted by the Qin army but full of fleeing factions, decided to return to their hometown to support Yelude regained his country.

That's too outrageous, the gap is really not too small.

Jiang Yashuguang does not know the specific information about Xiao Qin, so the data I calculated is basically accurate. I thought Xiao Qin only had 170 million troops, but in fact, I counted 87 more. Such expenditure, Xiao Qin's annual military expenditure alone reached 8000 million taels.

Before receiving the summons from Yelu Deguang, the fleeing faction who took refuge in Jiang Ya immediately recalled the meeting to discuss whether to return.

This is all spent with vain money. If the army's combat effectiveness is still weak, it is worth spending resources.

Jiang Yashu stared helplessly at the supplies, money and food outside the warehouse, which were increasing rapidly at a rate visible to the naked eye every day, and felt distressed in her heart, and finally understood why the Sui Kingdom was so capable of fighting.

Can the restoration of the Qiang people's country be possible or certain, but without us in the Qin army, if Yelu Deguang wins, at least these fleeing Qiang people will not have a place of refuge.

Dragon City.

Yelu Shilu and other Qiang people of the older generation had no way to refute that reason, so they could only refuse Yelu Chucai to stay in Jiangya.

The number of fleeing factions when they escaped from the Qiang land was not small, only less than 2 in total, but each of them was an elite, and it also included the two elites of the Qiang people, the Pishi Army and the Tielin Army.

Yelu De only worked hard to let himself think about Xiao Qin, because the gap is too small, and thinking less will make it difficult and make me lose my fighting spirit.

Kublai Khan waved his hand and said lightly, "If you want to leave, let us go."

Although Yelu Chucai's prestige in the fleeing faction is low, and he can mobilize the Qiang army at a critical moment, but I am still too old and belong to the older generation. The real leadership core of the fleeing faction is actually Yelu Shilu and Yelu Heluna Two elders.

Before Yelude's glory, Yang Guang also retreated to our Qiang forces, but his status was not as low as Yelude's glory, and he took the initiative to increase weapons and food to support our retreat and expansion.

Yelu Deguang did not think about continuing to expand the army, but the background of the Qiang people is too weak. My [-] small army alone was established with the help of Yuan Meng.

But now that the Qiang people have introduced the system of the Han people, it has not become a matter of course for soldiers to receive military pay, so naturally they can continue to use the old system after that.

Yelu Chucai felt that his informant behavior was a betrayal of his fellow clansmen, because without Kublai Khan's nod, Yelv Shilu and others would have been able to go back at all, and even affected hundreds of thousands of families in the tribe Big, so I have to be that snitch.

The total strength of the eight small factions of the Qiang people has reached 10, and nearly half of them are veterans. Therefore, the overall quality of the Qiang army is very low, and it will be strong with a little training. Combat strength is naturally comparable to that of Jiang Ya, but it is also much weaker than the Allied Forces of the Western Regions.

Before Xiaohan was in chaos, the combined annual tax revenue of the eighteen prefectures was probably less than 2000 million taels, and Xiaoqin still occupied the Central Plains, and they surpassed Xiaohan with only half of the country.

The returning faction headed by Yelv Shilu decided to return to the Qiang nationality, but there is still Liangzhou between Moxi and Haizhou, so we may bring back special people.

In addition, the [-] Qiang soldiers who joined the Sui army received the same treatment as Han soldiers. Yelu Deguang would also give the same treatment.

Before the Qiang people destroyed the country, the Qiang people who escaped from the Qiang land fled to the small desert through Han Sui's territory. Before joining the Qin army, they were placed in the Ximo grassland, which is close to Hezhou and Liangzhou, but far away from the Qin army. The capital, Dragon City.

Those who have not yet been accepted, headed by Yelu Chucai, decided to stay in the Qin army, and the reasons given were also very fatal.
Yuanmeng is located in the barren land of Kansai, so the military salary is so low, only one tael of silver per month.

Although Yelu Chucai also hoped that Yelude Guangneng would return to the country, but the person who enabled me to display my talents was Kublai Khan, who died for his confidant, so in my heart Kublai Khan is the one who deserves my life Allegiance to Mingjun.

As soon as he thought of this, Yelude could only hold back his breath, and even goosebumps rose up under his body.

The same male worker can spend less cloth in the same time.

With Yuan Meng's deliberate connivance and support, the power of the Qiang people, which took the Han people a hundred years to extinguish with difficulty, grew rapidly in a short period of time.

The problem of sufficient military equipment was solved by Yelu Deguang in a few days. I directly sent troops to take over Yushu County, opened Yuanmeng's treasury, and used Yuanmeng's resources to expand the army for myself.

Yang Guang made Yelu Deguang the Marquis of Liao, and the fiefs of Yushu County were not completely under his control. He directly denied the independence of Yelu Deguang from the legal principle, and did not mind exposing his sternness and health in the slightest.

But when I think of Sui Guoyue's one-two-seven yuan, he raised an army of less than 170 million.

It is precisely because the strength of the fleeing faction is not strong that they can get involved in the civil war against Jiang Ya and support Yelu Chucai all the way to the center of the Qin army.

His Majesty the Emperor Yuan was not strict enough with the Qiang people, but we said we were grateful, but Yelude's mere letter took our hearts away.

----------

After so many years of recuperation, the Qiang Fleeing Faction also took root in the Moxi Grassland, and grew stronger by annexing some large tribes, and became the leader of the eight small tribes in Moxi. Now it has a population of 17 and an army of [-].

It doesn't mean that Xiao Qin's annual military expenditure alone costs at most 2000 two million taels of silver, while Yuan Meng's annual military expenditure is only 2707 million taels.

The Dormant faction headed by Yelu Deguang has formed a small army of 8, the Sinicization faction has [-], and the Qiang traitor faction has [-].

Therefore, before some discussion, Yelu Shilu decided to return with only a small army of [-] to support Jiang Yashu's recovery of the country.

It is precisely because of the small income from there that Xiaoqin can support Xiaoqin's huge financial expenditure of 7000 million taels a year, and keep Xiaoqin on an upward trend even during the war, which is something that no other country can afford. Far more than it is.

If the internal affairs expenditure and the expenditure of various projects are added, Xiao Qin's annual total financial expenditure has reached 7000 million taels, which is less than twice the annual total income of Xiao Han's period, and it is also the total annual financial expenditure of the other four countries. double.

It is also true that the inheritance left by A Baoji after his death is quite rich. In addition, Yelu Deguang has made various money in those years and filled his own pockets, and he has saved a lot of money. so few troops.

The Yuanhua faction headed by Yelu Chucai led one hundred thousand troops and ten thousand small troops, and stayed in the grassland to continue serving the Qin army.

Just when Jiang Yashuguang was actively expanding and training the army, preparing to join the Sui Dynasty against Qin Dynasty, she received a small piece of bad news.

When Kublai Khan heard this, he shook his head and laughed, but did not speak again.

Yelu Deguang actually thought less, Kublai Khan would release him, but he still wanted Yelu Shilu to return.

In addition to weapons and equipment, military pay is also a problem.

Now all the countries are adopting the currency system of Xiaoqin, which also means that one gold coin is exchanged for seven silver coins, and one silver coin is exchanged for eight hundred copper coins.

Of course, although the fleeing faction headed by Yelv Shilu defected to the Qin army, they did not give up their military power. At the same time, they agreed to actively integrate into the Qin army. It was just a gesture of seeking protection, so naturally they were accepted by the Qin army.
