The third emperor of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 805 Generals, Don't Be So Gentle

At nightfall, all the army leaders and generals who were ready to go gathered again in the big tent of the Chinese army to participate in the farewell banquet hosted by Yang Tong. The tent was full of joy and laughter, and golden roast sheep was served on plates. Yang Tong even made an exception and allowed everyone to drink.

"My lord, alien races are no fun, they are all white-eyed wolves. In my opinion, it would be refreshing to kill all the Tubo people in the lore."

It was Su Wu who was speaking. The barn was once the number one under Ashina Simo's command. Later, he spent a year or two with Qin Qiong and made a lot of contributions. Qin Qiong saw how powerful he was, so he simply dragged him to Da Sui's side. , Not only was he promoted to a citizen of the Sui Dynasty, he was also the deputy commander of the Tenth Army. He was loyal and dedicated to the Sui Dynasty. However, although his attire was the same as that of the Sui people, his behavior was still the same as before in the army. It can be said that the beard of the steel needle is covered with grease, and there are already a lot of lamb ribs piled up in front of it.

Niu Jinda wiped off the wine stains on his lips, and also shouted: "I think what Su Wu said is right, let's just take down Tubo, why bother with Tubo people like Qiba, Nong, and Cai Sen?"

Yang Tong glanced at him and said with a smile: "Do you think it's that simple to occupy a country? Tubo is as big as Yongzhou, Liangzhou and Xihai counties. It is not only barren and cold, but also has a small population. Set up settlements like Heyuan and Xihai. If there are fewer garrisons, they will not be able to prevent the rangers who come to harass them every day. If there are too many, they will have to allocate food from all over the Central Plains. If they don’t do it well, let them rob them halfway, dragging down the entire army .”

Niu Jinda scratched his head, "That's true. Tubo is too far away from our Great Sui Dynasty. If something happens here, the imperial army may be lost before they reach halfway."

"It's good that you understand." Yang Tong smiled and said, "Occupying a place is not as simple as you imagined. Whether the local people support it, how to deal with the army's food, etc. are all big problems. The battle to destroy Chen in the Sui Dynasty was also a big problem. It was just to destroy the Chen Dynasty. People in the south did not accept our Great Sui Dynasty at all. In order to truly control Jiangnan, Emperor Wen let his grandfather run Jiangdu for ten years. How much money was spent on food, and what was the result? People in the south are against what they say, and there is a deep gap between the north and the south with the same roots. Let alone such a big country as Tubo."

"The key is that the Langri Zanpu family has been operating in southern Tubo for 32 generations. They are extremely popular, and even if the Langri Zanpu family is extinct, there are also families with the blood of the Tubo royal family such as Geer, Meng, and Sa. If we stand up, we can also rally a large number of people to rise up against us invaders."

"And if our Tai Sui occupies it, they may be able to be proud for a while, but for their own interests, they will attack in groups sooner or later, and then use the geographical advantages, people and harmony to confront our Da Sui, causing our Da Sui to fall into endless chaos. In the quagmire of war, we accept as soon as we see it. Not only can we jump out of the quagmire of war, but we can also reap the benefits without spending a single soldier. When they fight to the point of desperation and the people are tired of the war, if I go again in the Sui Dynasty, the local people will be considered I won't join the crowd to cheer, but at least I won't follow those war madmen against me."

"My lord, how should we fight? Or to what extent?" Wang Fubao asked.

Yang Tong smiled and said, "Think about it carefully, if Tubo wins, if they kill Luoyang, will they be merciful?"

"Certainly not."

"The Tibetans would not think that they started the war, nor would they think that we were forced to fight back; in their eyes, no matter whether we are kind or cruel, we are always hateful and hateful invaders. Kindness?" Yang Tong took a sip of wine and said lightly: "The significance of this battle is even more important. Not only is it to wipe out the remnants of the Tubo royal family, but also to frighten the Southwest and Northwest countries with cruel killings. I am afraid that you will kill less. Today's killing is not just killing, but killing for the sake of not killing in the future; today's killing is for not killing in the future; your battle must stabilize the northwest and southwest for at least ten years, at least Let the countries be afraid of us for five years, and after five years, our monarchs and ministers will kill us again..."

Yang Tong stroked the mustache under his nose, and said, "Generals, show your blood, don't be too gentle.

……

"Today's killing is not just killing, but killing for the sake of not killing in the future."

"To kill today is to not kill in the future;"

"This battle of yours must at least stabilize the northwest and southwest for ten years, and make all countries fear us for at least five years. After five years, we, the monarchs, will fight again."

……

Yang Tong's words seemed to have magical powers, which made all the generals excited.Emperor Shengwu really is Emperor Shengwu, or they like that taste.

It can be said that he was extremely generous to the people of the Sui Dynasty. He invented various agricultural tools and gave them cattle, sheep and horses from other races to benefit the people of the Sui Dynasty. It is extremely radical and stingy. He was the one who killed Khitan at the beginning, and he was the one who burned tens of thousands of people in Tongluo. Next, it is the Tubo people. Wu'.

Even the two brothers Du Ruhui and Du Chuke nodded frequently.

The Sui Dynasty established the country with martial arts and suppressed the barbarians. Naturally, we must maintain this positive martial style. If we turn to civil rule and use the theory of benevolence and righteousness to restrain the barbarians, let alone the barbarians, they will not listen at all. will not be guaranteed.

The core ideas of Confucianism such as "benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and faith" did exist when Confucius founded Confucianism.However, these views of Confucius were aimed at the war-torn Central Plains, not foreigners.

At that time, the foreigners showed a little bit of disrespect, and the heroes of the Central Plains immediately stopped, cheerfully pointed their butcher knives at the foreigners, reaped a crop of wealth to replenish themselves, and then fought again.

Therefore, in the era when Confucianism was born, foreigners were two-legged beasts in the eyes of a hundred schools of thought, and their place of survival was the back garden of the Central Plains.

Give more cattle and sheep, or give a little charity.

It's just that later Confucianism slowly changed.

Since the radical learning of the "Gongyang School" headed by Dong Zhongshu has declined, it has been replaced by the Guliang School of "clan friendship" and "relative concealment"...

In addition to cultivating generations of local tycoons and corrupt officials in Yurou Township, it is an infinite compromise with foreign nations. For his own momentary pleasure, he used the body of a princess in exchange for peace, and used the wealth of the Central Plains to fatten a tiger. When these exotic tigers showed their ferocious fangs, they completely shirked their own responsibilities with the misinterpreted sentence "The people who are not of our race must have different hearts".

History has proved that a dynasty that loses its radical ideas is quite dangerous, otherwise there would not be great turmoil and chaos in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties for hundreds of years.

Compared with the southern literati living in an environment of singing and dancing, the northern literati have been ravaged by Hu Ma for hundreds of years and influenced by Hu Feng for hundreds of years. Generations of northern literati have gradually changed their thinking to radical aspects under the slaughter of Hu people, and their temperament is particularly staunch.In terms of external views, the court officials and Yang Tong were the same.

The farewell banquet is over.

The smoky Yang Tong returned to the back tent and saw Wei Fengwu packing his luggage for him. Under the soft light, Wei Fengwu's face had a faint halo. She was already a mother of two children. But she looks like a girl, but with a little more charm that girls don't have.It made Yang Tong move his index finger.

This woman, ever since she decided to fight with her, has not let her touch her, and the others have also been like this.

Guarding these beauties every day, but acting as a gentleman, Yang Tong felt that his spear was so strong that he could be used as a horse.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Wei Fengwu was keenly aware of her husband's strange gaze, and a pair of beautiful eyes suddenly showed an indelible friendship, and her voice was like a cat's.

"Xiao Wu, let the old man have fun." Yang Tong chuckled and rushed forward impatiently.

With Wei Fengwu's exclamation, Yang Tong picked her up by the waist and flew straight onto the bed...

soon.

Then there was an imaginative melody sound.

"You stupid gentleman, you looked like a gentleman during the day, you looked like a bandit just now, and what's even more hateful is that you have become a saint now, why do you want to talk about this?" Not long after, Wei Fengwu's angry voice came out.

"It should be because you don't forget your original intention." Yang Yu's face flushed, he held back for too long, it was embarrassing.

"Get out, get out of here." Wei Fengwu was anxious, and pushed Yang Tong off his body.

Yang Tong's face was hot, but he still said: "As the saying goes, don't practice hand skills for three days, and don't recite oral skills for three days. If you don't let me practice, of course I will give up my helmet and armor? If you don't believe me, you can read it for me. You are not as proficient as before."

"I miss you..." the impatient Wei Fengwu duplicity.

"Didn't you also give birth. Hiss, I bit it... Haha, here it comes, let's continue..."

Yang Tong, who had regained his strength, jumped on his horse and raised his gun again, galloping vertically and horizontally, becoming more and more courageous as he fought, and was about to speak boldly, when suddenly there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside, and then the tent door was thrown open with a clatter.

"Your Majesty, come quickly, I caught...uh..." The aggressive Yang Qinfang was halfway through speaking, when she suddenly felt a dangerous aura attacking her, and then she saw Wei Fengwu wrapping the two of them up with a blanket, Yang Tong's face was livid, and his eyes glared at her with fire.

"Haha... I'm sorry... you continue." Yang Qinfang was too ashamed, and fled away as if flying.

"There should be something important in Lujiang." Wei Fengwu also looked at Yang Tong speechlessly.

Letting this crazy girl guard the tent is the stupidest decision in itself, let's do it now

"What important thing does this crazy girl have? Let's continue." If he doesn't come sooner or later, it happens to be the time for him to regain his glory. Yang Tong's anger can be imagined, and he has to do it even if the sky falls. Let's talk later.And this wasn't the first time, he and Pei Qinghua had been dealt with by her once before, and if they continued like this, they would be ruined by her sooner or later.

"She said she seems to have caught someone...you go..." Wei Fengwu refused to let him do it, "Lujiang came here in a hurry, he must be an important figure in Tubo."

Wei Fengwu focused on Yang Tong's great cause everywhere, and immediately closed the door, allowing the talented and generous Emperor Shengwu to drill seamlessly.

resignedly.

Yang Tong had no choice but to get off the horse.
