Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 417
"Yuan Junzhang, you are so courageous!"

"Shh!"

There was a sound of the whip breaking through the air, and the two vases on the table were swept away, and the broken porcelain was scattered everywhere. Yuan Junzhang, who was standing there and did not dare to move, was hesitating whether to kneel down and beg for mercy... The defector was caught right away , What a longevity!

Curses mixed with Turkic language spewed out from the mouths of the leaders of the association. In any case, Liu Heitao, Gao Kaidao, Liang Shidu, Yuan Junzhang and others all relied on the Turks to resist the Tang army or invade Tang soil. Now Liu Heitai Min died, and the other three were highly valued by the Turkic upper class.

In fact, the Turks have invaded Hebei, Hedong, and Guannei many times, but in fact the territory of the Turks is not much bordered by Li Tang's territory, and these warlords are used as a buffer zone in the middle. Their movements have a strong warning significance. Li Tang recruited Yuan Jun Zhang... means that the Tang Dynasty has the ambition to compete with the Turks, which is unbearable for the Turks.

After a while, Yu She, who had been silent all this time, waved his hand, "Sit down."

Yuan Junzhang sat down hesitantly, half of his buttocks were hanging... He thought that if Cui Xin, Li Shan, and Liu Shirang died in Mayi, he would be dead in the Tang Dynasty.

But after thinking about it, Li Shan was too careless in his actions, someone must have secretly communicated with the Turks... Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence!

Fortunately, the news should have been sent to Yunzhou... Yuan Junzhang knew very well that a month ago, the Turks returned to the west, and most of them returned to the grasslands. Yugu returned to Wuyuan County, and Yushe was stationed in Yunzhou... ...The purpose is to prevent myself from losing Mayi and returning to Yunzhou.

Thinking of this, Yuan Junzhang felt a little lucky. Fortunately, it was Yu Sheshe and the association rate who came here. If it was Yugushe...

"Voting to the Tang Dynasty is absolutely not allowed." Yu Sheshe said lightly, he knew very well that he had already arrived in Mayi, and Yuan Junzhang would never dare to continue the unfinished recruiting ceremony.

"Yes Yes."

Yu Sheshe asked with great interest: "Who is a lobbyist?"

Yuan Junzhang hesitated and faltered, Yu Sheshe smiled and said, "It should be Li Huairen."

Li Shan's identity was leaked, Yuan Junzhang no longer concealed many things, and poured out everything he could say.

Yu Sheshe's expression changed from relaxed to gradually dignified. In the past few months, the changes in Daizhou, the opening of commercial routes, and the massive loss of population in Shuozhou and Yunzhou were actually led by the Dai County Magistrate.

Rather than saying that Li Shan persuaded Yuan Junzhang to vote for the Tang Dynasty, it is better to say that he forced Yuan Junzhang to choose to vote for the Tang Dynasty... Yu Sheshu thought in his heart that the second brother's praise for such a method could not be exaggerated.

The association rate on the side was also interested, glanced at Yu Sheshe, turned around and asked: "Is Li Huairen stationed at Yanmen Pass?"

Yuan Junzhang wiped the cold sweat off his brow, and said in a low voice, "Liu Shirang is called the guard, but Li Huairen actually has all the military power."

The association rate couldn't help laughing, "So, when the sun rises at Yanmen..."

"Cough." Yu Sheshe stared at him. Two months ago, he led Qingqi to chase Li Gaoqian, and was defeated by the Tang army outside Yanmen Pass, and he was in a terrible state.

Yuan Junzhang knew about this matter, and Yuan Xiaozheng had mentioned it long ago. Those who fought that day were Hou Kanling of Linji County and Wang Junhao, the leader of Li Shan's personal guard. Both of them are now in Mayi.

Yu Sheshe pondered for a while, then asked in a low voice: "I heard that this person is not Longxi Li, Zhaojun Li, nor a son of the clan?"

Yuan Junzhang immediately replied: "The ancestral home is Chengji in Longxi, but it should not be the Li family in Longxi. The descendants of the clan are not yet known...but the Emperor Tang regards him as his nephew, which is commensurate with Princess Pingyang's siblings."

"Maybe they are descendants of the clan?" Yu Sheshe murmured a few words, feeling that Ashinasheer's news might not be accurate, maybe he was fooled by Li Shan last year.

Yuan Junzhang sat there tremblingly, listening to the association rate continue to scold, and Yu Sheshe fell silent again, he thought of a lot.

Now Turkic civil strife, Tuli Khan suddenly returned to Wuyuan County after two years of being exiled, and now the two Khans in the king's tent are fighting openly and secretly, and all Turkic tribes are in a precarious state.

Tuli Khan has won over a lot of old ministries of Shibi Khan and Chuluo Khan, such as Yu Sheshe, and the rate of association is typical, but in general, Tuli Khan is still at a disadvantage... Therefore, he needs assistants .

Although he didn't say it explicitly, Yu Sheshe vaguely sensed that this cousin might take Li Tang as one of his targets.

On the grassland, it is common for a family to surrender today and defect tomorrow. Even tribes often have wars of annexation and extermination. The Tuli Khan can choose not many targets, and the Tang Dynasty, which has basically unified the Middle Kingdom, It is one of the most reliable targets... because he knows very well that Jieli Khan has invaded several times, and there is no room for maneuver between him and the Tang Emperor, and there will be a battle in the future.

Therefore, Tuli Khan never attacked the Tang Dynasty. Before, he was stationed in the eastern part of Turkic, bordering Youzhou. Last year, when Liu Heitai re-emerged, he refused to send troops. Jieli Khan had to transfer Yugushe and A Snasheer.

For Tuli Khan, attacking the Tang Dynasty was of no benefit. To put it more exaggeratedly, if Jieli Khan broke through Chang'an, or even took control of the Central Plains, it would be of no benefit to him, and he would even suffer disaster because of it.

Yu Sheshe has a very close relationship with Tuli Khan, and he can vaguely sense the thoughts of this cousin, and wants to use Li Tang to fight against Jieli Khan, and even replace him.

Then, there is a need for an intermediary who can contact Li Tang's royal family and will not arouse the suspicion of Jieli Khan.

Yu Sheshe thought over and over in his heart that this acting county magistrate is very suitable... The most wonderful thing is that the guy in Yugushe hated him to the bone.

Tuli Khan wants to use Li Tang to check and balance Jieli Khan. On the other hand, Li Tang can also use Tuli Khan to check and balance Jieli Khan, and even split Turks. This is a common method used by Han people... Yu Sheshe pondered , Li Huairen tried his best to force Yuan Junzhang to surrender, so how could he not reach out and take this great achievement?

At this moment, Li Shan didn't have time to think about these things. He sat in the yard with a gloomy face, thinking about whether he should set off for the east immediately.

Yu Sheshe and the association rate arrive in Mayi, so the recruiting will definitely fail... What will this mean?
It means that the Turks are likely to attack Yanmen through Mayi next year. Can they hold it?

If he can't keep it, all his plans in Dai County will be in vain, and he will even have to flee back to Chang'an. Although he may not be questioned, will Pei Shiju remain indifferent and take action?

Don't say anything else, I can't bear this tone!
But if you don't leave, Yu Sheshe and the association rate can come, maybe in two days, Yugu She will also kill you... At that time, even if you have three hundred guards to protect you, you may not be able to escape back to Yanmen Pass .

"Lang Jun, report back from the scouts." Wang Junhao strode forward and whispered in his ear: "There are no traces of enemies within fifty miles, and there should be only these five hundred enemy horses."

This was within Li Shan's expectation. He nodded slightly, looked at Fan Shiyi who was entering at the same time, frowned and said, "Let you stare at Liu Shirang..."

He stopped halfway through the conversation, because Li Shan saw Cui Xin and Liu Shirang appear at the door.
