Chapter 1047: Ge Luolu
"Jinglue stay here for now, I still have something to discuss with Jinglue." Princess Xian'an didn't talk too much nonsense, and asked directly, "I plan to attack Ge Luolu in the coming year, I wonder if Jinglue has a chance of winning? "
For a country established by nomads like the Uighurs, whether the Khan can convince the masses depends first on whether he can win benefits for the tribe, and such interests are often based on plunder. There are only a few countries around the Uighurs. The cold and barren Siberian plain is equally desolate in the east, and Tang and Tubo are in the south. One is his mother country, and the other is powerful. Then Ge Luolu, who is weaker in the west, becomes the best choice.
Moreover, Ge Luolu and Tubo had defeated the Uighurs before. If he could defeat the enemy who had defeated Jieyujias, then the prestige of Princess Xian'an and the new Khan would definitely increase and they would be able to secure their thrones.
Because this operation is very critical, and failure is absolutely not allowed, Princess Xian'an is not at ease relying on Uighur's own strength alone, so she pins her hopes on Shen Long.
"His Royal Highness, please rest assured. Guo Junwang and Yang Duhu have already started to prepare for the attack on Ge Luolu. Now our Beiting Dufu and Anxi Dufu have sharp soldiers. If we have the assistance of the Uighur army, this time The battle must be victorious!" Shen Long replied without hesitation, when they attacked Tingzhou together before, the Uighur army was the main force, but this time the commander must be Datang.
Princess Xian'an has no objection to the leadership of the Tang Dynasty. Guo Xin is the king of Wuwei County and the governor of Anxi, and Yang Xigu is the governor of Beiting. The generals must be inferior to them, and Princess Xian'an will never let Jie Yujias, a fierce tiger, lead the army anyway.
"It's so good. My palace will send capable generals to lead the army." Princess Xian'an felt relieved, and after discussing with Shen Long, she sent Guo Xin, Yang Xigu and Shen Long a gift. A lot of presents, let Wei Yuanfang bring these gifts back to the Western Regions with Shen Long.
Back in the Western Regions, Guo Xin and Yang Xigu were overjoyed when they heard about the political changes in the Uighurs. "Princess Xian'an is a real hero. From now on, I will have no worries in the north of the Tang Dynasty!" With Princess Xian'an in control of the Uighurs In this situation, Datang can safely move troops from the north to the west and concentrate on dealing with Tubo.
Not only will Tubo's attention be drawn to the border between the East and the Tang Dynasty, but even the feudal towns in the north of the Tang Dynasty will be restrained. Otherwise, the Tang Dynasty and the Uighurs will be attacked from north to south, and they will face the danger of extinction.
While feeling emotional, Guo Xin, Yang Xigu, Shen Long, and Wei Yuanfang began to discuss strategies to deal with Ge Luolu. Ge Luolu has three surnames, one is seeking to fall, or assassinating; ; One is based on strength, so it is often called the three surnames Ge Luolu in the literature. They can be said to be typical grasshoppers. If the power is strong, they will submit to that side.
It was first attached to the Turkic Khanate. After the rise of the Xueyantuo Khanate, it belonged to the Xueyantuo Khanate.
Ge Luolu belonged to the Tang Dynasty. Later, in the Tang Dynasty, the Mouluo tribe became the Yinshan Dudufu, the Chiqi tribe became the Damo Dudu Mansion, and the Tali tribe became the Xuanchi Dudu Mansion. Later, the Damo Prefecture of the Chiqi tribe was divided into the Jinfu Prefecture Dudu Mansion. , the three surnames are located between the East and West Turks, and they often rebel with the rise and fall of the East and West Turks.
After the rise of Huihe, the Ge Luolu tribe in Wude Mountain belonged to Huihe, and Ge Luolu in the Altai Mountains and Beiting area, independent Yehu, belonged to Tang; during the Battle of Talas, Ge Luolu betrayed Tang Dynasty Mixed with the food in black.
After the Anshi Rebellion, the Tang army in the Western Regions withdrew to the Central Plains. Ge Luolu became stronger and gradually replaced Tuqishi, occupying the old places of the Western Turks in the Chu River Basin, including the famous Suiye City and Taluosi City. Not long ago, they fought with Tubo The Allied Forces of the Uighurs defeated the Allied Forces of Huihe led by Jie Yujiasi.
Yang Xigu also participated in this battle and returned in a big defeat. He lost Tingzhou City and returned to Xizhou City with more than 2,000 remnants of soldiers. It was not until Shen Long came to Datang that he helped him regain Xizhou City; Therefore, Uighurs are not the only ones who want revenge this time, Yang Xigu is also very eager for it.
He pointed to the map and said, "Now we have captured Tingzhou, Yizhou, and Yanqi, blocking the channel for Tubo to support Ge Luolu. If Tubo wants to help Ge Luolu, they can only cross Congling, Congling The roads are narrow and the supply is difficult, even if the Tubo people want to come, there will not be many troops!"
"As long as we can take down Shule and block Tubo's route to the north, Ge Luolu will have to fight alone!" Guo Xin pointed to the location of Shule City, "So when the war starts next year, the capital The guards will lead the army westward and take down Shule City!"
Shule, together with Khotan, Qiuci, and Yanqi, is one of the four Anxi towns, and has always been the sphere of influence of the Anxi Governor's Mansion. Guo Xin has wanted to regain Shule for a long time.
"If we can take Shule, we will be able to join forces with Bahanna, and we can support Bahanna's weapons and food, and let them go from the southwest to the north, and join us in pinching Ge Luolu." Shen Long added. Khan that is Dawan in the Han Dynasty, they are die-hard fans of Datang, and they will fight with Datang every time the Anxi Dufu goes to war.
Whether it was the Battle of Bolu in the Western Regions or the Battle of Talas, Bahana firmly stood on the side of the Tang Dynasty. Even after the outbreak of the Anshi Rebellion, they organized an army to return to the Datang with the army of the Anxi Protectorate. Tang, the rebels who attacked Anlu Mountain, even their prince, Ye Hu, died on the land of the Central Plains.
Of course, Shen Long would not forget such iron rods. He had long ago sent Kang Guangde to establish contact with the king of Bahana and sent them armor and weapons. The bloody horse was given to Shen Long. Although Shen Long had ridden many horses, he had never ridden a real bloody horse.
Seeing such a gift, Shen Long was immediately overjoyed, and he would ride out every day for a good stroll around to enjoy himself. This hard-earned BMW did not disappoint Shen Long, it ran like the wind, and it was the same as the war horse Shen Long rode before. Comparing it, it is like the difference between a Ferrari and an ordinary car, it is simply not the same.
After the discussions were over, several parties went back to prepare. Shen Long stayed in Tingzhou to continue training the Han Navy. Guo Xin returned to Kucha and sent people to investigate Ge Luolu's situation, especially the news about Shule City. Yang Xigu was vigilant. Following the movement of Tubo in the East, Princess Xian'an began to consider candidates for the army to attack Ge Luolu.
Winter is coming to spring, and it is a new year. When the weather gets warmer and the pastures are fertile, the Uighur army finally arrives in Tingzhou, and the plan to attack Ge Luolu can begin.
