Tang Dynasty: Starting from Kou Zhong, the heavens rise!

At this moment, Kou Zhong shouted softly: "Come here to prepare an edict."

"Zhao Deyan, a native of the Sui Dynasty, lurked in the Eastern Turks for more than ten years. He made great contributions to the state and was granted the title of Marquis of Yuan Dynasty. He was appointed governor of Beiting. He recruited [-] troops to guard Beiting."

"promise!"

The attendants of the King of Chu immediately drafted an edict.

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Zhao Deyan burst into tears of gratitude and quickly kowtowed to thank him.

Being a first-grade governor of Beiting is nothing, but the title of Marquis of Dingyuan is very particular. It was first owned by Ban Chao of the Han Dynasty, and with Dingyuan as the marquis name, his life will definitely be recorded in the annals of later generations.

"Your Highness."

"The leaders of Xue Yantuo, Huihe, Bayegu and other tribes came to ask for surrender."

A member of the Guards Cavalry came forward to report.

"Go and have a look."

Waving his hand, Kou Zhong walked through the air and arrived at the Turkic camp.

When the leaders of the tribes who were standing next saw Kou Zhong's heavenly figure, they couldn't help but kneel down and kowtow: "Long live the Khan of Heaven!"

"Long live God Khan!"

The nearby grassland tribes all followed suit, and their voices shook the world.

Looking down, Kou Zhong said coldly: "I didn't see you during the battle just now. Could it be that you want to fish in troubled waters?"

'Boom! '

These words were like a thunderbolt hitting everyone's hearts.

Many tribal leaders present quickly kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Don't dare! Heavenly Khan! We don't dare!"

"Humph!"

With a cold snort, Kou Zhong said sarcastically: "Don't you dare?"

"If the Chu army hadn't taken control of the Eastern Turk camp, I'm afraid all the Turks here would have been carved up by you."

"Don't think about it, Gu is not Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, let alone Yang Guang. Da Chu will not leave any chance for the grassland to separate its rule."

"Either surrender or die! Choose one!"

what?

heard.

The faces of many tribal leaders kneeling on the ground changed drastically.

Before coming, they thought that the Chu army had no interest in the grassland like all the Central Plains countries in the past dynasties. Once the East Turks fell, they would be able to carve up the tribes and pastures of the East Turks and strengthen themselves. But now it seems that they have all thought wrong. The Chu State actually wanted to annex the grassland.

"Let me introduce to you, the Governor of the Governor-General's Office in Beiting of Great Chu, Dingyuan Marquis Zhao Deyan!"

"I've seen you all!"

Zhao Deyan, who was dressed in evil clothes, suddenly appeared and greeted all the tribal leaders present.

"hiss!!"

The pupils of everyone present shrank sharply in an instant, and their faces became even more ugly.

Zhao Deyan, the state counselor of the Eastern Turks, asked Jie Li to be the culprit who intensified the oppression of various tribes. He turned out to be the Protector of Beiting of Chu State.

That means that from now on, all the tribes present will be under the jurisdiction of Zhao Deyan. Zhao Deyan's understanding of the grassland is no less than that of the many tribal leaders present. How can they get rid of the control of Chu State?

"Xue Yantuo, a small tribe in the lower state, is willing to submit to the great Chu! See your highness! See the Lord Protector!"

At this moment, a figure suddenly knelt down and kowtowed.

This scene shocked many tribal leaders present. They all reacted and kowtowed and saluted: "The Uighurs of the small tribe in the lower state are willing to surrender to the great Chu!"

"The small tribes in the lower state are willing to surrender to the great Chu!"

"......"

For a time, all the tribal leaders present kowtowed to express their submission and were willing to obey the management of the Beiting Protectorate.

"Yi Nan, right? You are very smart, and I like smart people very much!"

"The edict is proposed: The leader of Xue Yantuo's tribe is grateful for heaven's grace and obeys the will of the people. He is bestowed with an earl and the title: Guiyi."

"The grassland under the jurisdiction of the Beiting Protectorate is divided into ten alliances, namely Xue Yantuo, Huihe, Bayegu, Pugu, Tongluo, Sijie, Qibi, Gaolan, Basimi, and Geluolu. The leaders of each tribe are the leaders of the alliance. , established an alliance city, and allowed Xue Yantuo's tribe to establish an alliance at Yu Dujun Mountain."

"Each alliance has five flags: left, right, front, middle and rear. Each flag owner has jurisdiction over a land and herdsmen, frees all slaves, and uniformly divides pastures for herdsmen."

"In the future, the Governor's Mansion will govern the ten alliances, and each of the ten alliances will govern five banners and manage military and political affairs."

"Each alliance is only allowed to recruit [-] cavalry, and each banner is allowed to recruit [-] cavalry to maintain local security."

"The salaries of each alliance leader and flag leader are distributed by the Ministry of Household Affairs of the Chu State, and their children are allowed to enter the Imperial Academy, the Martial Arts Hall, and the Women's Garden."

"The Guhui ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to grant Chang'an a residence. After you leave office, you can go and live in Chang'an on your own."

Looking around at everyone, Kou Zhong continued to give instructions.

"promise!"

There was a hint of joy on the faces of many tribal leaders present.

Although the military power in their hands was divided, the slaves were gone, and the pastures had to be divided up, their territory was expanded, and they could still receive salaries from the Chu State. Even the three thousand direct alliance cavalry were allocated soldiers and armor by the Chu State. Isn’t it better than the hard life they had before?

Yi Nan, the leader of the Xue Yantuo tribe, was even more overjoyed. He actually got a count. He was the only count in the Mobei grassland besides Zhao Deyan. This was so important.

However, Zhao Deyan on the side was secretly frightened, His Highness's move was too vicious.

Divide the entire Mobei grassland into ten alliances and let them build alliance cities. This gives the grassland people who originally had no fixed place a place to stay. After getting used to it, they are even less willing to wander. If they want to make a comeback in the future, Chu The country can easily destroy them because their cities are living targets.

Furthermore, the ten alliances combined have less than [-] cavalry. The Beiting Army directly under the jurisdiction of the Beiting Protectorate has [-] cavalry. Do all the grassland tribes still want to rebel?There are no doors.

"By the way, how many people are there in the Eastern Turks?"

"Back to Your Highness, this battle captured 23 Eastern Turkic cavalry and about 150 million troops."

Zhao Deyan quickly reported the matter.

"Ah."

Glancing at the crowd, Kou Zhong said: "Those captured Turkic soldiers will be distributed to the Ten Alliances, allowing them to form direct alliance cavalry."

"As for these Turkic tribes, why not be neighbors with the Xueyantuo tribe. The Xueyantuo tribe built an alliance city in the north of Yudujun Mountain, and the Beiting Protectorate built a city in the south of Yudujun Mountain, called Dragon City. These Turkic tribes are People of Dragon City.”

"In this matter, the Construction Department of the Guhui Ministry of Industry sent a master craftsman to guide the construction of Dragon City and the ten alliance cities."

"promise!"

Zhao Deyan felt a chill in his heart and immediately responded.

Yudujun Mountain, also known as Yudujin Mountain, and later Hangai Mountain, is located in the central area of ​​the entire Mobei Grassland. Dragon City is built in the south of the mountain, adjacent to the Ling'egen River. It is extremely suitable for the development of agriculture and animal husbandry, and can be more real-time Control the movements of the Ten Alliances in Beiting.

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

The tribal leaders present did not understand the profound meaning, but they knew that they would get Turkic soldiers, and they all kowtowed happily to thank them.

Although the Turks' armor was crude to the Chu State, in the eyes of these Mobei tribesmen it was a real good thing.

Chapter 134: Liuma Plain, Jingyan Palace, War Temple!

After the Mobei grassland was pacified, Kou Zhong rode a dragon horse alone to the Suiye River in the Western Region.

The Suiye River is the Chu River in Central Asia in later generations. It is located in the north of the Tianshan Mountains and flows southward into the Rehai. During the most powerful period of the Western Turks, the Suiye River was used as a boundary to divide the left and right tribes with ten surnames. Tokmak was the alliance place, and Tokmak was the Suiye City in later generations.

Along the way, spring is warm and flowers are blooming. The snow-capped mountains on both sides of the Suiye River are irrigated by melted snow water, which nourishes many local plants and flowers. It is a paradise scene. The residents of the Western Regions plant wheat, grapes and other crops, and the prosperity is no less than that of the Central Plains.

"Your Highness!"

Outside Suiye City, Imperial College Jiu Shizhixuan, General Shence Wang Shichong, General Shenwu and the generals of the two armies were already waiting.

Seeing the figure coming down from the sky, everyone saluted and greeted him in unison.

There was also a group of people wearing strange clothes nearby. When they saw the winged dragon and horse, their eyes widened and they almost said "cow!"

"Yuezhang!"

"How was this trip to the Western Region?"

Looking at Shi Zhixuan, Kou Zhong smiled and joked -.

Shi Zhixuan is a otaku who has been frozen for more than ten years. If he doesn't go out and walk around, he may not know how much the world has changed.

"It's not bad, but the people I meet are a bit weak."

Shi Zhixuan replied calmly.

Geek!

These words immediately caused embarrassment among the people on the side of Daming Zunjiao.

The strongest force in the entire Western Region is the Ming Dynasty Zunjiao. Doesn't that mean they are weak?

"Your Highness."

"We have a gift for you."

"Come on, bring it here!"

General Shence Wang Shichong waved.

"Snapped!"

Several Shence soldiers threw two humanoid objects in front of Kou Zhong.

If you look closely, you will see that the man on the left is tall and thin with dark skin, and the man on the right is short and has yellowish skin. Both of them have strong fire in their eyes.

"This is..."

Kou Zhong raised his eyebrows slightly, showing a hint of curiosity.

"Back to Your Highness!"

"These two are Flying Eagle Qu Ao, the second master in the Western Region, and Funanda, the Imperial Master of Tianzhu."

"There is another person called Bai Ziting. I don't know which of the tendons are wrong, and he wants to plot against you, Your Highness."

"No, we took the blame. Bai Ziting was shot to death on the spot. These two guys were kept for His Highness' amusement."

Wang Shichong glanced at Qu Ao and the other two, his mouth full of sarcasm and disdain.

"Hahaha!"

Everyone in the Shence Army and Shenwu Army couldn't help laughing.

I have never seen such a stupid person. Kou Zhong is the greatest grandmaster in the world. He killed Ning Daoqi and surrendered Fu Cailin. How powerful is that? He still wants to plot against Kou Zhong. Isn't this a meat bun beating a dog? There is no return.

"Flying Eagle Qu Ao."

"I think about it. In the days when Gu was just rising, he killed a young man named Ren. He must have been your son."

"Fu Nanda, the Imperial Preceptor of Tianzhu? You want to kill Guying because the Tianzhu Governor's Mansion uses Tianzhu people as slaves to smelt wootz steel."

"It's a pity that this is fate. The lonely Chu will not only be strong for a lifetime, but also will be suppressed for eternity."

"Whether it's Tianzhu or the Western Regions, these places are not allowed to be occupied by outsiders."

"As lazy and incompetent as the people of Tianzhu are, what's the use of living?"

"I'm not afraid to tell you that Gu's order to the Tianzhu Governor's Mansion and the Shendu Governor's Mansion is that within three years, all Tianzhu people must die, except Tianzhu women."

"The Guhui will continuously introduce Han people from other worlds to control this fertile land."

Looking down at Qu Ao and Funanda, Kou Zhong's lips curved slightly.

"You butcher, you will be punished!"

When Funanda, the Imperial Master of Tianzhu, heard this, he shouted excitedly.

Flying Eagle Qu Ao seemed to have accepted the result of his failure and said nothing.

The people in the Ming Dynasty teaching next to them were all horrified. There were no less than 2000 million people in Tianzhu. Even if the women were left behind, it would consume at least 1000 million Tianzhu people. To do this in three years would be terrible.

However, the generals of Shi Zhixuan, Shence Army, and Shenwu Army didn't care, because they had already known the empire's plan.
