In fact, Sun Xiurong had already thought about the countermeasures against Da Xi Chou Nu. He summoned everyone to see what everyone was thinking. Although some of these people were from the most "direct" young soldiers, and some had favors to them before, such as Hou Qi, it is best to observe how to express their opinions on major events in a formal occasion.

Li Fei Shouyu said: "Governor, it's not that he is confused, but that it's too incredible. Just a few days before I came, Mohe Dagan, who was entrenched in Suoye City in the east, had increased the standing army to 5,000. The number of people is still increasing. It is obvious that it is to guard against the Da Xi tribe, and it is possible to take down the troops in one fell swoop while the Da Xi tribe is exhausted during the long journey."

"From forward, the Daxi tribe is going to travel through the southern part of Rehai, and Mohe Dagan's younger brother, Gu Duoluo, is also a ruthless man. Not long ago, due to a ranch dispute, Gu Duoluo and Suo Shijin from Hu Luju's tribe had a battle. Although the scale is not large, Gu Duoluo fought with Suo Shijin in an unbeatable way. Governor, everyone, it can be seen that although this Gu Duoluo is unknown, his true strength cannot be underestimated."

"Can such Gudoro keep his promise and let the Daxi tribe pass through his territory? It's impossible to think about it. Now Mohe Dagan controls the most core personnel of the Chumukun tribe. Gudoro controls most of the tribes that depend on the Chumukun tribe, and his combat power is definitely not as good as Mohe Dagan, and his Husero tribe on the north bank of Rehai has become Mohe Dagan's forbidden body."

Sun Xiurong nodded, "So do you think Da Xi Chounu will definitely be intercepted by Gu Duluo halfway?"

"Most so"

Sun Xiurong turned his attention to Nan Gongxun again. The most outstanding among the original Narendi teenagers since Geshuminu left. He was a serious herdsman and his understanding of characters like Da Xi Chounu must be stronger than that of the Han people.

Nan Gongxun said: "Governor, I have heard of these two people in the Naren Department before. They are both brave and cruel people. However, compared with Gudoro, Da Xi Chounu's cunning is naturally deeper. First of all, I think with the courage of the Dumukun tribe, Da Xi Chounu, as a passerby guest department, will never provoke trouble."

"This is because, no matter how frivolous Gudora is, he will not do nothing. He will sit and watch Da Xi Chounu leave, and he will definitely prepare his troops early like his elder brother just in case. There are tens of thousands of households south of Rehai. The time for the most prosperous grass is over. Gudora's tribe has no place to migrate. Or they will store the forage in advance, or drive the livestock out every day to eat the dead grass nearby. In any case, the herdsmen are still in the same place."

"In this way, Gudoro can quickly gather at least three thousand elite troops to deal with Da Xi Chounu. He still waits for his work. With Da Xi Chounu, he has eight thousand households, and he is almost certain that all the young and strong have gathered together. However, he needs to protect the elderly, weak, women and children, and most of the troops cannot be used in combat. At most, the only ones that can be dispatched is about three thousand cavalry."

"In this case, Daxi Chounu had no reason to take the initiative to attack Guduro. He mainly focused on defense."

"You mean that Daxi Chounu will pass through Gudoro's territory without any danger?"

"Yes"

"Governor", Naren Xiaofeng stood up, "I think most migrants like the Daxi tribe will not work just by considering a migration route."

"oh?"

"Da Xichou Nu can borrow from Hu Luju's tribe. Compared with Gudululu in Chumukun, Suo Shijin of Hu Luju's tribe was a Khan and a general from the imperial court of the Tang Dynasty. He has never taken the initiative to provoke trouble everywhere. If Da Xichou Nu discussed with him, he could completely come from the junction of Chumukun tribe and Hu Luju's tribe, which is near the east coast of Rehai to the Suyechuan River Basin. After that, what Da Xichou Nu needs to consider is the Gelulu Down-Strength Forces Department that had just moved there."

"The strength of the Ministry is only 5,000. Ida Xi Chounu's strength will definitely not be taken seriously. If he destroys it, he may not do this. Of course, because he has too many women and children, he probably won't do this. With the advantage of young and strong people, he will pass through it openly."

"You mean that Daxi Chounu came to Talas to discuss with me, and discussed with Mohedagan, Gudoro was just a cover?"

"Very likely"

"Governor" is speaking of Naren Xiaofeng, the son of the chief of the Naren tribe who was attached to the Southern Bow Division. "If the Daxi tribe came from the junction of the Chumukun tribe and the Hu Luju tribe, we would have to worry about the affairs of the Gongyue tribe. Because the Sog of the Gongyue tribe and Sahalian were already prepared, even if Daxi Chounu arrived there smoothly, he would not be able to go there. At that time, the Axijie tribe was in the west and the south. He would not be able to hit a wall, so he could only fight to the north."

"So, he showed goodwill to the governor, naturally, so that he could pass through the Gongyue Division safely. Since this is the case, we don't have to worry about it."

"If it comes from Gudora and Mohedagan's territory to our territory, if it passes smoothly, then we have to think about how to deal with it if the Daxi tribe and the Chumukun tribe join forces to deal with us? Not to mention anything else, Gudora brings five thousand cavalry and five thousand cavalry of Mohedagan, plus the newly established five thousand cavalry, 15,000 cavalry is not that easy to deal with."

Sun Xiurong nodded, and he also considered this section, "It's okay, there are three thousand shattered Ye soldiers in Ashi's city, two thousand scattered Ye soldiers from Hou Qi, and two thousand herdsmen from Heifu. By the way, Erlang, have you informed Heifu to gather his subordinates before you come?"

Li Fei Shouyu replied: "Of course we gathered together. Not only that, Hou Qi's two thousand soldiers were also notified that once a war occurs, the soldiers can gather in the largest village near the castle within half a day."

Sun Xiurong nodded, "That's it. Mohe Dagan must know about the seven thousand men and horses. He will attract them with these seven thousand men and horses. Then this governor will lead 3,000 standing troops to rescue them at any time. Even if there are 15,000 cavalrymen, I believe Mohe Dagan and others will not know about these."

Naren Xiaofeng continued: "So, Daxi Chounu can only go to the north of Yibohai through the pasture of Gongyue's tribe?"

"Governor, everyone", the person who spoke was Feng Changqing. As soon as he spoke, even Sun Xiurong raised his ears. Naturally, he was not because of his celebrity complex, but because Feng Changqing was famous in history, so he naturally had his extraordinary features. He had the rare logical thinking and extremely meticulous implementation of this era. Even if he did not take the high position of the governor of the Lixi, he would be an extremely excellent governor in any state in the Central Plains.

A person with this kind of thinking is of great reference value to judge other things, although he is not from a herdsman.

"First of all, what I can't understand is why the Daxi tribe migrated to other places. In Hexi, the Daxi tribe was the most favored among the Tuyuhun tribes of the Tang Dynasty. The Daxi tribes also used the most talents for the Tang Dynasty. After moving to the northern foot of the Qilian Mountains, they were directly placed near Yanzhi Mountain. Everyone, then you are the best pasture."

"Later, in order to balance the Turkic tribes, the court moved the Daxi tribe to the distant Yingsau River, which is also an excellent pasture, second only to the upper reaches of the Yili River. The Daxi tribe annexed the Shi Nishi tribe and naturally had the imperial instructing it..."

His words naturally caused a stir, and even Sun Xiurong was a little surprised. Feng Changqing had never said such words to him before.

Feng Changqing's face was also a little embarrassed, and after a while he continued, "Well, I have worked in the Protectorate before, just to help the judge manage the documents. Naturally, I understand some things. The court will naturally not make any comments, nor will it be reflected in the documents. However, I am a person who likes to dig into the roots and accidentally discovered this."

"I won't go into details. Anyway, the Daxi tribe suddenly attacked the Shi Nishi tribe and had the intention of the court. The court's idea was very simple. It was appropriate to mix tribes like the Daxi tribe in the remaining tribes of the powerful Western Turkic tribe. However, there were not many officials in the Neixi who understood the court's difficulties. After learning about this, they regarded the Daxi tribe as the target of blackmail. To be honest, the greed of these people was beyond imagination, but the sudden migration of Daxi tribe from Yingshuochuan was still a big surprise."

"The Shi Nishi tribe is one of the majority of the Western Turks, or one of the tribes where the Asina clan served as the chief. There must be a lot of treasures in the tribe. After the Daxi tribe destroyed this tribe, the main purpose was naturally to its Dingkou and livestock. Those treasures were used to deal with the blackmail of the officials of Neixi. Even if the blackmail was extorted for ten years, it would be no problem. When the ten years arrived, the Daxi tribe had long become a large part of the joint officials of Neixi who dared not extort at will. Did the Daxi civilized civilization not think of this?

Sun Xiurong also thought about this section carefully, but in the end he had no idea and gave up. He really couldn't think of why the Daxi tribe gave up the best pastures, but moved to Qilian Mountains or near Yibohai.

"Everyone, even in those years, I read the documents of the Great Protectorate with questions. Naturally, there was nothing on the surface, but I still found clues between the lines."

"The Daxi tribe is known as one of the Murong tribes who moved to the Xihai area with Murong Tuyuhun. However, things and people have changed a lot a few hundred years later. In the Northern Wei Dynasty, the Tuoba Xianbei tribe also disappeared. However, clues were found in a document below, which said, "The Daxi tribe is the only tribe that was not included in the Central Plains of the Northern Wei royal family. In other words, the Daxi tribe is actually the Tuoba tribe, or the serious Tuoba tribe."

"After the demise of the Northern Wei Dynasty..."

Feng Changqing hesitated for a moment when he said this. This scene made Sun Xiurong see him, and he suddenly thought of something.

That is the matter of the imperial seal. In the early years of the Tang Dynasty, because the jade seal of the Sui Dynasty was brought to the grassland, there was no real imperial seal at the beginning of the Tang Dynasty. Later, Empress Xiao brought the seal back. However, some people also said that the jade seal was fake and the real jade seal was lost in the Wei and Jin Dynasties.

The monarchs and ministers of the Tang Dynasty naturally would not say that the jade seal was fake, but as a future generation, Sun Xiurong naturally knew the origins and the ends.

The real jade seal is engraved with the words "According to the heaven, I will live forever" while the one brought back by Empress Xiao is engraved with "The Destiny of Haotian, Emperor Shouchang". It is said that the Emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty owned two jade seals, and this fake jade seal was passed down from generation to generation. The real jade seal was placed in the tribe by Tuoba Hong. Although Tuoba Hong was determined to be sinicized, his actions in this matter were somewhat unexpected.

Of course, these are all legends. Sun Xiurong laughed it off at that time, but now he heard Feng Changqing say this, and he couldn't help but feel refreshed.

"According to my guess, an extremely precious jade fell into the hands of the Tuoba tribe, or the monarchs and ministers of the Northern Wei Dynasty deliberately placed it in this department. Before the Daxi tribe moved to Yingsauchuan, the court did not know about this matter, but after the move, perhaps the tribe who knew the details of the department reported the matter, or perhaps the court discovered it by chance, so..."

Sun Xiurong nodded and stopped his continued momentum of speaking downward. Feng Changqing was able to say these words, which meant that he was already concerned about himself, and it would be useless to continue to say them.

"Okay, don't talk about the past of Daxi tribe, just talk about the possible actions of Daxi tribe."

Feng Changqing nodded, "Since it is such a tribe, it is definitely not a simple tribe. After the destruction of the Rat Nishi tribe, Daxi civilization can still deal with the tribes, which further confirms this. If I were the Daxi tribe, the way I moved to Qilian Mountain would definitely be a flicker, and the number of people would not be large, because even if I moved there, it would be under the eyes of my Tang Dynasty. Moreover, they also knew that accepting the control of my Tang Dynasty was much better than that of the Tubo people, and they had no reason to surrender to the Tubo people."

"So moving to Yibohai, which is vast and sparsely populated, is the only choice. To get there, there will be dangers everywhere. Even if Da Xi tribe is powerful, he will fight all the way, and after he really arrives, there will be no more left in the tribe's Dingkou. Therefore, they must have made extremely meticulous plans."

Hearing this, Sun Xiurong shook his head in his heart, "It's a pity that they met Gao Xianzhi, a rare military genius. He only dispatched two thousand elite cavalry to smash Da Xi's dream to pieces."

Feng Changqing continued: "Whether it is leaving from the junction of Hu Luju and Chumukun tribe or the territory of Gudoro in southern Rehai, it is very risky. Everyone knows that Daxi tribe is a piece of fat, and there is no one who can bite it."

Sun Xiurong nodded and said to himself: "It's reasonable. Later Turkut tribes moved westward and greeted Yesmukhan of the Kazakh Khan in advance and presented a large amount of money and beauties. However, when they moved west, they were still killed by Zhongyuzi and Xiaoyuzi tribes. Yesmukhan was still a great khan with great prestige. What is Mohedagan? "

"Cough cough", Feng Changqing coughed lightly, "The southern part of Talas is the Talas Valley where the Geshu tribe is located. After two years of war, the Geshu Hai tribe in Henan finally conquered the tribes in Hebei. However, the two tribes had 20,000 households in total, and it is said that only half of them are Dingkou, which shows its tragic situation."

Sun Xiurong looked at Li Fei Shouyu. He married Ge Shuhai's sister. Li Fei Shouyu said: "Absolutely, I accompanied my wife back to Ge Shu tribe. Almost every family has died and injured strong men. Now is the weakest time for the ministry."

"That's it. After Mohedagan destroyed the Husero tribe at the northern end of the Rehai, he moved half of its herders to the upper reaches of the Saiye River, which is the west coast of the Rehai River. There are rolling mountains everywhere between Naren and Rehai. The Daxi tribe can completely go directly to the western end of the Rehai River through a certain mountain road without Gudoro's territory. At that time, as long as Daxi Chounu arranged three thousand Jingqi Temples, a large group of people could slowly retreat to the upper reaches of the Saiye River."

"The Huselo tribe there naturally could not resist the Daxi tribe. It was very possible that the Daxi tribe would carry it away by hand. Then, with five thousand elite cavalry, suddenly broke into the Talas Valley. After Geshu Hai unified the Geshu tribe, in order to prevent anyone from causing trouble, he took all the two elite tribes into his hands. There were always three thousand standing troops near its tent. If Daxi Chounu could annihilate these three thousand people in one fell swoop, he could destroy Geshu tribe again!"

"At this time, the Daxi tribe was already a very large tribe. According to the regulations of our Tang Dynasty, he was naturally given a title of Khan or a title to show his detention. At that time, whether the Daxi tribe continued to move westward or stayed in the Talas Valley or did it."

Sun Xiurong nodded, he had agreed to Feng Changqing's judgment.

"If this is the case, how should my Governor's Office deal with it to the most advantageous?"

Feng Changqing said: "Governor, in fact, whether it is Mohe Dagan's Chumukun tribe or Daxi civilized Daxi tribe, the court will never allow him to become stronger in secret."

(The Chumukun tribe was destroyed by Fu Meng Lingcha in real history, and it took only a few years)

"The governor often resents the imperial court's abolishment of Suiye Town. In fact, no matter which unit occupies the vicinity of Suiye Town, the imperial court will not let it grow. In the past, the army was named Wuming, and now the opportunity is coming. I understand that the generals of the military and generals in the West will never sit idly by and watch Da Xi's troops move to Qilian Mountains. They will always find opportunities to attack on the way."

"When Daxi tribe was defeated, the one that was originally used to lure the enemy would turn around and turn back to Yingsau River, and then rely on the terrain of Yingsau River to deal with the Tang army to protect most of the people from reaching the Talas Valley smoothly. Regardless of whether it is right or wrong, the Daxi tribe has become the enemy of the Tang Dynasty on the surface. If the Daxi tribe successfully passed through the Chumukun tribe, it would naturally have some private connection with it. Our army can attack Mohe Dagan and regain the Sailye City."

"If the governor did not pass the Chumukun tribe, with the court's fear of the five words "Tuqi Shi Khan", even if the governor was named Wuming, he would not be condemned afterwards. Instead, he would write to the court to request the restoration of the Shuye Town after taking it back. The court would most likely agree with it."

"As for the Daxi tribe, even if it is surrounded by force, its troops will grow bigger and bigger, and they will be extremely tired after arriving at the Shuyechuan or the Talas River. They are definitely not the opponent of the governor. It will be possible to recruit or fight at that time, it depends on the governor's plan."
