What's more, the princess Pingyang is not a mother, just a sister. Pingyang Princess let go of her arms, no longer worried about this matter, and turned to talk about logistics with Xue Lang.
Since ancient times, fighting is a logistics. Especially in the age of cold weapons, no war can be fought without food and grass.
This is Xue Lang's supervisor. Of course he knows. Thanks to her good memory now, Princess Pingyang asked, Xue Lang could tell the figures immediately and clearly how much food and grass there were.
In fact, war is a huge activity, and there are too many things to be used in war. Especially in ancient times, from the decision to fight to the beginning of truth, the back often represented complicated preparations.
Fortunately, because of Xue Lang's arrival, the Tang Dynasty has been preparing since the beginning of the year to deal with the southward movement of Turks. However, anyone with insight knows that Liu heikai's recovery is only to help Turks fight in front of him. If Liu heikai can't do it, Turks will follow.
Princess Pingyang said, "so Liu heikai must be pacified! Only when Liu heikai was completely pacified could the court spare its hands to deal with the Turks. The Turks are the real danger of the imperial court. "
Xue Lang said: "the trouble of the imperial court is inside, not outside."
Princess Pingyang was surprised: "You Yang, why do you say that?"
Xue Lang said: "throughout the history, from ancient times to the present, there have been troubles of Hu people in the north. The Huns have caused disasters to the Qin and Han Dynasties. Now in the Tang Dynasty, it is the Turks. In the Central Plains, although there was a change of Dynasty, it was still the Han people, but outside the pass, Hu was changed into many nationalities. The so-called iron hit central plains, running water Hu people. "
Princess Pingyang nodded: "Youyang often has amazing words, but careful thinking is quite wonderful. You Yang, please continue. "
Xue Lang arched his hands, and then said, "the troubles of the Hu people are all due to the weakness of our central plains or the chaos in the world! If the monarchy of Central Plains is unified and the country is rich and powerful, which Hu people can fight against it? Therefore, it is only time to pacify Turks! The foundation of the Tang Dynasty was established at the beginning. There were bandits in it, and the national strength was still weak. That's why we regarded the Turks as the great enemy. In my opinion, we should despise it strategically, but attach importance to it tactically. "
Pingyang Princess clapped her hands and exclaimed: "it's really shocking to despise strategically and attach importance to a word tactically."
Xue Lang, smiling and arched his hands, said honestly: "this is what the florist, a great military strategist and the emperor, said. I think it is appropriate to use it here."
Speaking of this, Xue Langton sorted out his thoughts and said: "I have read many historical books since I was a child. I know that the Hu people are one of the major problems of the Central Plains imperial court. When the imperial court is strong, it is not afraid to beat the Hu people. When the court is weak and the central plains are in chaos, the Hu people are rampant. So when I passed by Turks, I stayed for a while
Princess Pingyang immediately asked, "so you know something about Turks?"
At that time, there was only a few thousand years of Turkic rule between the north and the south, but in fact, there was only a few thousand years of Turkic rule between the north and the south. Until Well, it was probably during the kaihuang period of the former Sui Dynasty that the Turkic Khanate split into East and West Turks, and fought against each other for more than 20 years. "
Princess Pingyang said: "so it is. No wonder that in those years, there was no Turkic kowtow. It was civil strife."
Xue Lang said, "yes. Therefore, it was only later that the Turkic shabaolue Khan returned to the Sui Dynasty. It was not until the despicable son of the Emperor Yangdi of the Sui Dynasty that he broke away from the Sui Dynasty and became self reliant
Xue Lang didn't talk about the later things. Besides, it was about the princess and her father borrowing soldiers from Turks. Speaking of this, many people have said that Li Yuan and Li Shimin and his son had submitted themselves to the Turks, which is not true. Several historians have studied that Li Yuan and Li Shimin did not submit themselves to the Turks, but only formed an alliance.
At the beginning of his military campaign, Li Yuan borrowed troops from the Turks. His letter to the Turks used an opening character, which was not evidence of submission, but a kind of etiquette. Before Wude eight years ago, Li Yuan and Turks used the etiquette of the enemy state, not submission. After eight years of martial arts, it became the etiquette of the emperor to his subjects.
Xue Lang said: "in fact, the Turks are not the only ones in the north. There are also tiele, Khitan and other ministries. Compared with the Turks, these two ethnic groups are still weak. However, over time, it will be a serious problem in the Central Plains. However, it is still too early to worry. The most urgent task is to solve the Turks first. "
Princess Pingyang nodded. Xue Lang said: "in fact, I always have a question. The nomadic people in the North do not have the same idea of unification as the Central Plains area. It can be said that they act in their own way. Why can't we pull one, beat another, and divide them?"
Princess Pingyang asked, "how? How to do it? "
Xue Lang thought for a while and said, "what does Turkic lack?"
Princess Pingyang said: "what Turks lack is a stable and prosperous life and endless fine wine and clothes, which I have in Central Plains. There are still a large number of people in the Central Plains of China. As long as the Turks fight in and force them to enslave the people of Central Plains with the power of bows and horses, they will have inexhaustible slaves. Turks only need to enjoy themselves. If you talk to people who know etiquette, and animals who only know how to use brute force to subdue people, they will have a chance to speak only after they are convinced! "Xue Lang nodded to show that he understood. Isn't this the case in the Yuan Dynasty? The Han people are regarded as the fourth class, and they are not as good as pigs and dogs. There has always been only peace fought out and peace never talked about.
After discussing about the Turks, Xue Lang suddenly remembered one thing and asked, "Your Highness, did Ye Qing handle the garrison? Seeing that a great war is imminent, if the army is not united, the result will be unpredictable! "
Pingyang Princess indifferent smile, asked: "You Yang do not believe my vision?"
Xue Lang said: "no, my subordinates naturally believe that your highness looks at people, but he is quite curious about how Ye Qing is such a dull calf to win people's hearts."
Princess Pingyang said, "Ye Qing is a born general. Although he is a new member of the army, he knows how to lead the army. In the army, you only need to do a little bit to subdue the crowd! "
Xue Lang curiously asked: "what is it?"
Although he didn't intend to lead the army to fight, there were some common points in the way of controlling the soldiers. Princess Pingyang said that he was not dignified. It was also a kind of learning to listen to how others controlled them. It is never too late to learn. Xue Lang is the adherent of this sentence.
Pingyang princess is not that kind of bad taste, like to attract people's appetite, see Xue Lang asked, naturally and candidly told: "prestige!"
