Chapter 25 The Uyghur King's Tent (Part 2)
There were still several people sitting in the hall, one of whom was naturally the great master of the Uighur Khanate, from Jabbar of Persia.
One of them was Ye Hu's cousin, the grandson of Fudinan, the leader of the Uighur tribe who moved south to Ganliang, Yao Luoge Dun, who once participated in the martial arts ceremony. At that time, he thought that even if "Dun" was written in Chinese characters, it was too simple, so he gave himself a pure Chinese name - Yue Dun.
Ye Hu is only 26 years old this year, but Yue Dun is nearly forty. As the descendant of Fudinan, the eldest son of the Uighur tribe, he had certain fantasies after returning to Mobei from Liangzhou, especially after Guli Peiluo's death. However, since most of his own tribe had moved to Ganliang, there were very few people who stayed in Mobei, and with Jabbar's strong support, Yue Dun had to temporarily lie dormant even if he had ambition.
It has been said before that there are nine surnames inside and outside the Uighurs. Among them, Yaoluoge, the nine surnames inside, was the royal family. Yaowuge, which was divided from the Yaoluoge tribe, was second, and was similar to the Yishi tribe in the late Khitan period (has been the descendant of the Yelu family for a long time and has exclusively occupied the Xiao surname).
The Yaoluoge tribe occupies the entire Yukun River (Orhun River) basin and the northeast of Wudejiashan, and is the core of the inner nine surnames.
Then there is the majority of the Gesa tribe and the Gexi tribe, which occupies the Hunyi River (Wengjin River) basin and the southeastern part of Wudejiao Mountain.
The Gexiqi Department occupies the southwest part of Wude Mountain.
Yaowuge tribe occupied the northwest part of Wude Mountain. After Sun Xiurong defeated the Gelulu people in the Dahu area, the power of the Gelulu people in the Lake area was greatly reduced. Even the Basimi people there were also saddened, so they had to take the initiative to surrender to the Uighurs, and they were all completely annexed by the Uighurs.
Finally, the boundary is based on the Gas Lake (the Kyrgyz Lake in later generations), and the north belongs to the Yaowuge area, and the south belongs to the Fenggexiqi department.
The Huchuge tribe and the Yaoluoge tribe intermarried a lot, and their status was inferior to the above tribes, in the Tongluo River Basin (later Hara River, one of the tributaries of the Selenge River, and north of the Tula River).
Xi Yewubu intermarried with Yaowugu tribe for a long time, and his status was again in the north of the Tongluo River, which was the Selenge River, Chuku River, and Shilok River basins centered in later generations.
The Chuluobubu, Abudie, and Huosu tribe followed the eastern Yehu moved to the land and herd in the Tula River, Krulun River, and Onon River basins.
The so-called nine outer surnames are the Pugu, Tonglu, Hun, Bayegu, Sijie, Qiye, Basimi, Gelu, and the Uighur tribes, which are all located in the above-mentioned nine inner surnames and tribes.
In history, in addition to the holy mountain Wudejiao Mountain (Hangai Mountain, Yanran Mountain), the holy water Yakunshui (Orhun River), the other holy mountain is Langjuxu Mountain (later Kent Mountain, Bogda Mountain), and the holy water is Dule River (later Tula River). Ye Hu, the great khan of the Uighur Khanate, personally guarded Wudejiao Mountain and Yukun River. His younger brother moved his land to Jianze to guard Langjuxu Mountain and Dule River.
After Yue Dun returned to the north of Mobei, he soon received the attention of Ye Hu. He also asked him to take charge of the center with the position of Daluobin (the Uighur official position, similar to the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty), and commanded the tribes north of the Saling River (Selengge River) and south of the Xiaohai (Lake Baikal), and naturally also served as Ye Hu in the northern part.
Ye Hu, at this time, had actually become the prince of the Uighur Khanate.
In addition to Yue Dun, there was another person sitting upright in the head of Jabbar.
I saw that the man had a long figure, a tall nose and deep eyes, and his long black hair was combed in half from it, and he was tied with a dark red forehead. The fiery red gem in the middle was very conspicuous.
A long beard that was almost as big as the belly was also black and shiny.
He was wearing a black robe, and the belt was a jade belt that obviously came from Middle Earth. It was inlaid with various colors of extremely conspicuous whirls, and in the middle was also a fiery red gem.
Do not use medicine to germinate. Emperor's virtue.
Yaowuge's great chief was also a great ruler. Together with Yue Dun, he was equivalent to the left and right servants of the Shangshu Province of the Tang Dynasty, and also served as Ye Hu in the southern part.
Historically, after Ye Hu was killed in the internal struggle of the Uighur royal family, Di De replaced Ye Hu as the commander who went south to support the five thousand Uighur elites in the Tang Dynasty. However, after he took over, he was not good at it and his combat power was significantly reduced. However, in any case, he must have been a close confidant of Yi Dijian, or temporarily surrendered to Yi Dijian. There is no doubt about this section.
Because the mother who moved to the ground was from the Yaowu Ge tribe.
In addition to the one of Yao Luoge and the three inner nine surnames, there are naturally the former Baye Gu tribe, and the remaining members of the Pugu tribe left in the north of the Mo to protect them.
Ten years later, the Baye Gu tribe, which used to dominate the Krulun River, Onan River, and Wangjian River (Ergun River) basins, has recovered from the attack of the Saiye Army.
In order to win over him, Yi Dijian made the daughter of Bayegu Dakun the Khmer, and also asked the Bayegu's tribe to swim the middle of the Kruren River. Later generations migrated 10,000 tents as Dakun's dowry. Yi Dijian selected three thousand elite troops from it as his standing army.
In addition, five thousand people were selected from the four inner divisions of Yaoluoge and other Uighurs, Pugu, Tongluo and other outer divisions, and moved to the land to the ground to have 8,000 standing troops, with considerable power.
Of course, this is still pale in comparison with the 20,000 standing troops under Ye Hu's Khan at this time.
In addition to the three Uighurs, Ye Hu, Yue Dun, Di De, and the great national master, Jabbar, there was also a man who was obviously dressed in a Han Dynasty.
In Shidingfan, the descendants of the Shi Kingdom royal family (the real royal family, not the Turkic people Li Dai Taozun) who moved to Chang'an during the reign of Emperor Taizong, had long been highly sinicized and participated in the civil and military rituals, Wanqi Camp, Qianniu Guard, and one of the leaders of Li Longji's great guards.
Originally, he followed Dunhuang King Li Chenglu to the north to borrow troops from the Uighurs, because Ye Hu had been Li Longji's guard with him and was a member of the head of the Wanqi Camp. When he saw the Uighur Khan, he was easy to talk to. Unexpectedly, when Ye Hu saw him, he decided to let him stay in Mobei to assist him.
For the Tang Dynasty, if a person as insignificant as Shi Dingfan could be abandoned, he would be able to get reinforcements from the Uighur Khanate, and naturally he would agree quickly.
At present, Shi Dingfan's position is Yan Hongda and Meilu, and the general idea is that he is the general manager of the Khan Court's Office and the Left Minister of the Shangshu, and he is also considered to be a high-ranking and powerful person.
For Shi Dingfan, Chang'an has now fallen, and the huge Tang Empire is at the time of "two dragons standing together" (Li Longji, Li Heng). The rebels are in high spirits. With Shi Dingfan's eyes, they have no hope of cleaning up the old rivers and mountains in a short time. Therefore, it is natural that they can't seek to win over the Uighurs openly and become important officials under the Khanate.
However, since taking this position, I have clearly felt the hostility I handed over from Kareem and Yue Dun from time to time.
Unlike the Central Plains dynasty, the internal struggle of the grassland tribe was completely open and closed, and the bloody storm made people shudder. Although Shi Dingfan was Yan Hongda and Meilu, he spent these days in a worry-free manner.
In the grassland tribe in this world, unless you are a respected wise man from the tribe Reed, such as the Shinyu Valley, if you do not have the military power, the consequences will be extremely tragic once you lose your power.
Because the grassland tribes and until the Jianzhou Jurchens in later generations were all a complete slavery regime, without any exception.
It has been several days since the news of Gu Chuo reached the royal city, but Ye Hu had not finally made up his mind, so he sent a quick horse to give Gu Chuo the order to "hold the troops."
If Ye Hu died in internal strife and successfully moved to power, then the Uighur Khan would usher in at least twenty years of peace. However, because Mo Yanchu died early and Ye Hu became power too early, and moved to power too far, and Shi Dijian was in charge of the vast pastures in the east. Any slightly larger action of the Khanate would cause backlash.
Although Ye Hu is known for his bravery, he has naturally understood this since he was a child.
He deeply understood, "My biggest enemy is not the Tang Dynasty, nor the Shattered Ye Army, but the moving land is healthy!"
Another point is, "According to Gu Chuo's report, the Sailing Ye Army has at least 10,000 people. If only a 10,000 army was sent south, they would definitely not be able to defeat them. The royal court's standing army had only 20,000 people. If all of them were sent, the moving land in the east would definitely be eyeing them."
"But if the troops were drawn from the tribes of Wudemao Mountain, it would be too late to go."
This is the only reason why he is undecided.
Of course, the Hu Chuoge tribe and Xi Yebet in the north have become a tribe that completely surrendered to him with his painstaking efforts over the past ten years. In addition, he is particularly fond of Yue Dun, who is in charge of these two tribes, and he can still collect 10,000 elite troops in a short time.
This is because, to the north of Xiyebud, there are Guligan people (the people of Uryanha in later generations). They are nomadic on both sides of the sea. There are not many people. It is amazing if there are 5,000 victorious soldiers. If there are a small number of soldiers and horses left behind in Xiyebud, they can defend.
Such a meeting has been held for several days, and there has been no conclusion.
Looking at His Highness and others, Ye Hu finally burst into anger.
Shi Dingfan, the former Qianniu Guard General who had been with Li Longji for a long time, naturally noticed this. His face changed several times in an instant, and finally made up his mind.
"Sweat"
He straightened his upper body.
In fact, he also understood that although he and Ye Hu had old friendships, if they could not play a big role, he might be thrown out as a poor chess piece for sacrifice at any time, and sometimes he had to stand up.
For Ye Hu, Yue Dun, who mastered the two major and the northern Ye Hu, was the one who had high hopes for him. Unexpectedly, "Xu Shu entered Cao's camp" these days, wouldn't he be angry?
As for Shi Dingfan, this man had just taken office, had no prestige and had stable foundations. He didn't want him to plan for himself as soon as possible and protect him first, so that Xu Tu's development would be serious.
However, since Shi Dingfan spoke, it was naturally a chance to test him. Ye Hu's frowning eyebrows suddenly loosened at the beginning.
"Oh, what's Shi Qing's opinion?"
Among all, Ye Hu, Yue Dun, and Shi Dingfan all understood Tang language. Except for Shi Dingfan, the rest of them could speak Turkic language. Ye Hu was speaking Tang language at this time. As soon as this said, Yao Wu Ge, who did not understand Tang language, raised his eyebrows, and Yue Dun discovered this scene.
"In my opinion, it is better to let Ye Hu from the east lead the army south, and another 10,000 people will be sent to the royal city. After that, 10,000 people will be drawn as soon as possible from the adjacent divisions. It will be about a month apart from these two divisions, plus the Guchu division, and nearly 30,000 people..."
Ye Hu shook his head. He naturally understood Shi Dingfan's thoughts, but this was not what he thought. As a military commander, his military ability is far stronger than his political ability.
