Late Tang Dynasty Floating Life

Chapter 1571 Your family is suffering
"Khan, are you still hesitating now?" In the palace of Karasa, Li Shouxin persuaded: "Even if you are soft-hearted now and let Satuk go, when you grow old, your sons will be happy." Capable of dealing with him?"

Ogurchak was a little displeased, and said, "My son is also good at bowing horses, why is he worse than Satuk?"

"They are too young." Li Shouxin directly pointed out the most essential problem, only to hear him say: "Dun Yu is your oldest son, and he is only 17 this year, right? What can he prove himself? Grassland Khan knows better than I do. Satuk is nearly [-] years old, which is the best time in a man’s life and the time when he is most ambitious. He has led the army many times and made a lot of contributions. Compared with Tuke, what is Dunyu? I speak badly, Khan forgive me."

It's not just bad words, it's pointing at Ogulchak's nose, calling his son a "child" who hasn't made any achievements, can't convince the public, and can only be played to death by his elder nephew.

Ogurchak suppressed the irritability in his heart and asked, "What do you want to do?"

"Daxiazi doesn't want the princess to become a widow as soon as she gets married." Li Shouxin said.

This can be said to be very naked, and Ogurchak became more irritable after hearing this, and got up and walked around in the hall.

Li Shouxin was a little disappointed, again.

This khan is really hesitant. If he hadn't been born well, how could he lead such a big country.He persuaded him once before, and Ogurchak was so hesitant, and Altai also persuaded him, and his words were much more straightforward than him, but Ogurchak still failed to make up his mind.

But you can't make up your mind, not necessarily your nephew.From Li Shouxin's point of view, he was a very vicious character, and he had been tempered in the fighting field, so his temperament had long been extraordinary.If you drag on any longer, you may be the one who dies.

"Satuk has many supporters..." After turning for a long time, Ogurchak suddenly stopped and said.

Li Shou was overjoyed in his confidence, he didn't evade the problem, he was willing to talk, it was much better than last time.

"Khan, it is because of his many supporters that he is more dangerous." Li Shouxin said: "He is not the crown prince, but he has made friends with so many leaders and nobles. What does he want to do? The Khan should think carefully. .”

"The Uighurs have many enemies, and if they openly break up with Satuk, it may trigger a civil war." Ogurchak still hesitated.In his heart, his son is certainly important, but his foundation is also very important, and it is difficult to compare directly.

"The Persian ruler is less suspicious, and the turmoil is endless. Wherever you look, there are no enemies?" Li Shouxin advised: "It is better to take this opportunity to cut off the serious troubles in the heart, and Persia will not be able to interfere. If you wait until Persia gets its internal order in order, Things are not so easy."

These words are somewhat inconsistent with Li Shouxin's cognition.

He has carefully studied the relationship between Persia and the Uighurs in the past 20 years.In fact, in his opinion, Persia completely treats the Uighurs, Geluolu, Turks, Oguz and other ministries as side troubles.

When the border troubles become serious, troops will be dispatched to fight to frighten the thieves.The conquered places are rarely directly occupied, and the main method of rule is to force the local nobles to surrender to Persia.

Compared with warriors, Persia sent more scholars, businessmen, monks, etc. They went deep into various tribes and tried to "Persianize" them, but so far, the results have not been very significant.

What did Saman Persia think of the Uighurs?Basically, you don't always come to plunder my town, harass my people, stay away from me, and do what you like.

This may be the nature of farming peoples, after all, few emperors of farming countries are interested in being "Heavenly Khan".Occupy a few well-developed farming areas developed by the Sogdians, teach the enemy a lesson, and force them to surrender. How valuable is it to come to the grasslands where the Uighurs, Gelulu, Oguz, and Turks graze?
"Satuk is my nephew after all..." Ogurchak still hesitated for the last time.

"Khan, there is no room for half-hearted soft-heartedness at the time of life and death." Li Shouxin said: "Satuke has led the army for many years, maybe he is linking up with the old troops, wooing nobles who support him, and preparing to be unfavorable to Khan. These days, He's never been idle."

Today is April [-]th, and anyone with a discerning eye can tell that Satuk has already made preparations in private.So what are you waiting for?After all the negotiations have been settled in private, and the preparations are complete, then they will come to the door openly and complete the mutiny?
Sometimes, Mr. Li Shouxin subconsciously associated Ogurchak with those indecisive monarchs and powerful ministers in history, and he was overthrown in an advantageous situation, making future generations laugh at him for hundreds of thousands of years.

Ogurchak went in circles again.

Li Shouxin waited patiently without urging him.This is the end of the matter, and everything that should be done has been done. If this guy still can't make up his mind, then he has nothing to say. He can only advise the saint to prepare for the most difficult situation. All the forces under the Uighur Kingdom should use force to solve it. Fantasy politics wooed.

"Alas!" Ogurchak sighed, and said, "The envoy's words are somewhat reasonable, and the matter has come to this, so we can only..."

"Khan!" Altai hurried in and reported, "Satuk suddenly left the city."

"What are you doing out of town?" Ogurchak was taken aback and asked.

"During a speech..."

******
"The philosopher said, if you are strong, don't trample on the people. If you are cruel, no one will support you when you encounter difficulties."

"How much tax did the Camel King collect? How many evil things did he do? Soldiers, your family members must be suffering, right?"

"A tyrant cannot be a king, and a wolf cannot shepherd a sheep. If he sweats endlessly, he must be punished."

On the high platform, Satuk was impassioned and shouted loudly.

More and more people gathered, most of them were people living near the outskirts of the city.They are farmers, shepherds, and warriors at the same time. When they heard Satuk's provocative words, their faces moved slightly, obviously speaking to their hearts.

Compared with other old nobles, Satuk's image is very good, even too good.

He has his own code of conduct, and strictly abides by it, never exceeding the rules.

He has made many great achievements on the battlefield, and at the same time lived a simple life. He often helped soldiers and civilians who were in difficulty. There are countless people who have received his favor.

Therefore, when he stood up, he was naturally very convincing.

"In the country I want to build, everyone has clothes to wear, everyone has food to eat, and they have won many battles on the battlefield and captured countless spoils of war." Satuk continued, and more and more people gathered here. many.

"I am willing to regulate everything about me, restrain greedy desires, and only take what I deserve."

"If the Great Khan oppresses the people, he will desert his relatives in times of crisis. If he always thinks of the people, he will be fearless in war, because the people of the whole country are an army, and they will be invincible."

"Adan's descendants are all brothers, and brothers are like brothers and sisters. At the beginning of creation, they are one body, and the disease of one limb is transmitted to the whole body. Human beings do not sympathize with the suffering of others, and are not worthy of being called human beings in the world..."

"Now, soldiers, take up your weapons and follow me into the city. Greedy, cowardly, and incompetent people are not worthy to lead the Great Uyghur Kingdom. Satuk will lead you to gouge out the carrion and build a new country. You can eat enough Dress warmly, and be able to defeat the ferocious Persian army and steal their women and wealth." Satuk jumped off the high platform, took the scimitar handed by his subordinates, and said loudly: "Let's go!"

"Go! Enter the city!"

"Enter the city!"

I don't know who is shouting in the crowd, inciting emotions.

Some people stood there foolishly, but they were pushed and moved forward by the crowd.

Some people are still hesitant. After all, the rule of the nobles is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. It takes a lot of courage to break it. In the end, someone handed over a weapon and pulled him forward.

Some people wanted to run, but were stopped by the surging crowd.They were spat on and even beaten, then turned away with shame on their faces and stumbled through the crowd.

In the distance from the high platform, the Gulam army has been mobilized.

After the prayers of these elites who walked and rode, they put on their armors, put on their weapons, lined up in a neat line, and rushed towards the city with fierce faces.

Hundreds of heavily armed cavalry had rushed into the city gate, and the guards were scattered before they could react.

They unfurled the banner of Satuk, preached loudly all the way, and kept naming some greedy and violent old-fashioned nobles, clamoring to carve up their wealth and women, and promised to distribute them to the soldiers who joined them.Therefore, the number continued to grow, and the momentum gradually became astonishing.

The identities of these soldiers and city people who joined halfway are very complicated.

Someone wanted to take advantage of the chaos and rush into the nobleman's mansion to take advantage of it.

Some people came for the name of Sutuk and worked for him unconditionally.

There are also people who really have long-standing grievances and take the opportunity to vent them out.

Of course, the most active ones were the believers called by the monks. They were not low in organization, and they brought weapons and acted as the front line.

Believers, of course, are more than that.

The consequences of Ogulchak's perennial appeasement have already emerged.

In the town of Artush in the northeast of Shule, Samani has already walked out of his exclusive temple, dressed neatly, and brought more than a thousand cronies, riding horses, carrying bows and sabers, to Shule City and go.

They chanted the slogan "Adan's descendants are all brothers and sisters", and they were mighty. Wherever they passed, they kept engulfing the villagers and herdsmen, and their momentum grew, and the number of people also increased rapidly like a snowball.

An official came to reprimand him and was shot dead with an arrow.The army guarding the officials wanted to resist, but after seeing that they were surrounded and hearing the name of Satuk, they were immediately persuaded, turned against each other, and headed towards Shule.

On April 15th, the [-]th year of Jianji, Satuke, who seemed to be in dire straits, brazenly rebelled.

He took the Gulam guards as the elite and thousands of secretly developed believers as the backbone, engulfing a large number of people and soldiers, and rushed into the city.

The whole Karasa was in chaos, and it was hard to tell the enemy from ourselves.
