Chapter 955: Attack Tang!
Li Cunxi's official positions were exchanged, and the arrangements of the three departments were disrupted.
Huang Shengyan's subordinates are all in the Inner Guard Palace, Long Feng's loved ones are in Da Shuihe, and Wu Lezhi's brothers and sisters are all in the Wind Riders.
With the replacement of three people, a large number of hidden dangers were eliminated directly.
In the past, Li Cunxi would definitely not do such a thing, but it is different now. Even if some things will not happen, he has to be cautious.
For example, although Li Cunxi said that he trusted Bakhta and Duoduo, in fact, there were people from the Snake Spirit guarding their houses.
Most of the Snake Spirits were eventually incorporated into the Iron Hand Group, and together with the original members of the Iron Hand Group, they formed a new organization, the Iron Snake Group, which was also the predecessor of Da Shuihe.
The remaining members of the Snake Spirit joined Li Qingxia's army. After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, they became guards in the mansion of Duke Wang Jinghui of E.
Some time ago, Bakhtarini complained to the court officials about the servants in his mansion behaving inappropriately, so Li Cunxi sent dozens of slaves over, including members of the Snake Spirit.
There are also several Snake Spirit members in Duoduo Mansion, all of whom were carefully selected by Li Qingxia.
It still goes like the old saying, one should always be on guard against others.
After this, Li Cunxi's life began to revolve around three points.
The war in the Western Regions has not yet begun, but frictions on the border are increasing.
In mid-April, a man walked into the tent in the spring rain, followed by several followers who were dressed in rags and looked pale and thin.
The tribal leader sitting on the Hu bed looked at the man arrogantly and asked disdainfully:
"Do you have any strategy that can help me defeat the Tang Dynasty?"
The man glanced at the barbecue and wine on the table, then returned to his polite state and bowed to the tribal leader.
"I am Yuzhou, the Prime Minister appointed by the Turkic Khan. Because of the Turkic defeat, I swore an oath to bring about the downfall of the Tang Dynasty. Your Majesty the Khan sent me on my way, and I share this desire. Therefore, I have come here solely to bring about the downfall of the Tang Dynasty!"
The tribal leader frowned slightly.
The news of the Turkic defeat had already reached the Western Regions, and they also knew that the Turkic people had previously appointed a Tang person as prime minister.
When the Great Zhou was still in existence, Helu asked them to attack Zhou from all sides, but they were ultimately defeated. The first person to be destroyed was Wu Sansi, who rebelled against the Great Zhou.
Instead of attacking Zhou from all sides, Khitan also joined the Tang Dynasty in attacking the Turks from two sides.
It can be said that Helu of the Turks destroyed himself strategically and made the entire Turkic region become the territory of the Tang Dynasty.
However, it must be said that from the information obtained by these Western Regions tribes, the defeat of the Turks did not seem to have much to do with this prime minister. It was easy for this prime minister to provide logistical support for the Turkic army of hundreds of thousands.
It is also a good thing for their tribe that such a person comes to their tribe.
Thinking of this, the tribal leader stood up.
"Welcome, Mr. Yuzhou, welcome to your arrival. I am very happy to have you here. I know your abilities, and I would like to invite you to stay in our tribe."
"I swear to the great Changshengtian that as long as you stay in my tribe, you will have a status second only to mine."
Yu Zhou's eyes were dark and unclear: "I only have one question, are you willing to attack the Tang Dynasty?"
The tribal leader did not answer directly: "My tribe is not a small tribe in the Western Regions, but compared to the tribes that attacked the Tang Dynasty, it is indeed a small tribe."
The tribal leader is arrogant, but he is not a fool.
His tribe is one of the best among the tribes in the Western Regions. Why is that?
Of course, it was all because of the Black Society of Liangzhou in the past. They wanted to split Liangzhou and asked the 17 major tribes near Liangzhou for help. In the end, they were swept away by Wang Xiaojie's troops.
Later, the remaining large tribes followed the Turks to attack the Tang Dynasty, but were blocked by Wei Fengyang of Liangzhou and Quan Shancai of Dunhuang. Finally, they encountered Wang Xiaojie, and another wave of bloody massacres took place.
He had managed to survive until now, and his tribe had grown from an insignificant one to a well-known and large one. Now, if he was to die...
Damn it, Wang Xiaojie is watching right at the Turkic border!
If Wang Xiaojie knew that they were planning this, his third expedition to the Western Regions would be a foregone conclusion!
"In other words, because your tribe is not strong, you are not planning to attack the Tang Dynasty?"
Yu Zhou asked with narrowed eyes.
He would definitely not believe that these tribes near Liangzhou had no interest in the Tang Dynasty.
If the people of these tribes had no interest in the Tang Dynasty, Wang Xiaojie would not have needed to repeatedly attack these tribes.
You know, a force like the Black Society could make these tribal leaders excited, which shows how much they yearned for the land of the Tang Dynasty.
"not prepare."
The tribal leader said calmly, "My tribe will not attack the Tang Dynasty. I know very well that attacking the Tang Dynasty is like touching a tiger's butt. Once we attack, we will surely die in the tiger's mouth and become its food."
He paused and continued:
"The strength of the Tang Dynasty is obvious to all. Even the Turks and Khitans were defeated. How can we possibly defeat the Tang Dynasty?"
"Even if I wanted to seize the land of the Tang Dynasty, I couldn't defeat Wang Xiaojie and Feng Yang. One of them is on the Turkic border, and the other is guarding Liangzhou. Either of them can easily wipe us out."
"I won't die...To go against the Tang Dynasty is to die."
Yu Zhou listened to the tribal leader's long-winded nonsense, but still couldn't determine his true thoughts.
He stroked his chin, thought carefully, and suddenly said provocatively:
"It seems that you are destined to be a mediocre person. The reason why your tribe is inferior to those large tribes that have been destroyed is obvious."
"When the leader of a tribe doesn't dare to fight for his people, then the tribe's ceiling is set. It won't become very strong!"
"If a tribal leader living in a place like this doesn't have the will to plunder, then sooner or later your tribe will become a stepping stone for others and eventually be swallowed up."
"Since you are willing to lead the tribe to an end of annexation, then I will take my leave. I, Yuzhou, will not accompany you any longer."
After Yu Zhou finished speaking, he turned around and left with his men.
After walking out of the tribal leader's tent, the people inside still didn't let him stop, and Yu Zhou's heart sank.
Maybe he acted too well, or maybe he really met a mediocre person.
Yu Zhou was somewhat unhappy that the other party failed to become a credit in his thick book of achievements. You know, his tricks always worked against Helu.
Logically speaking, any monarch with even a modicum of ambition would not give up on a talent like him...
After daydreaming for a while, he had already walked more than ten meters away.
The fact that the tribal leader still didn't let him stop probably explained everything.
Yu Zhou strode with his head held high until he reached the entrance of the tribe, taking a step forward without any hesitation.
A voice suddenly sounded:
"Sir, the leader asks you to discuss the attack on Tang in detail."
