Chapter 1726 Pacification of the West Sea (4)

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Huang Mingliao left Yuchi Gong to garrison Guzang, but he only commanded the cavalry in the army. He set out from Guzang City, crossed the snowy mountains, and went straight to Xuande City.

    At this time, Hexi lacked everything, but there was no shortage of cavalry.  More than half of the 5,000 men and horses Huang Mingliao brought back from the Western Regions were cavalry, plus 2,000 Tongluo cavalry, 3,000 Hunbu cavalry, and 2,000 cavalry under Que Dushe's command, for a total of 10,000 cavalry.  There are so many people.

    Everyone is puzzled by this.

    Because at this time, the three thousand Xiping Army led by Duan Lun, Wen Cao's nephew and cousin-in-law, had been blocked by Tuyuhun troops in Xingling for a long time.  This is the time to support Duan Lun, break through the blockade, and go straight to Shancheng. How can we turn back to Xuande City.

    After all, Shancheng is in danger at this time and may be breached at any time.  An extra quarter of an hour of delay will increase the risk of breaking the city.  Once Shancheng is lost and the Tuyuhun people march in, the entire Xiping County may be ravaged, and then the entire Xihai situation will be in ruins.  Today, tens of thousands of Tuyuhun rebels are besieging the city, and they have even divided their forces into Changning Valley. Duan Lun's troops cannot even cross the Xingling Ridge, let alone rescue them.  Moreover, Duan Lun only had 3,000 men in his hands, so even if he did get to Shancheng, it would be a drop in the bucket.

    But Huang Mingliao had his own intentions.

    There are tens of thousands of Tuyuhun rebels. Even if they can be completely defeated, they may not be completely wiped out.  After they put down the rebellion and left the West Sea, these Tuyuhun people would reappear and become a disaster again.  So this time he wanted to get it done once and for all without leaving any future troubles.

    At this time, the main force of the rebels came out, and the entire rear was completely empty.

    Huang Ming and Liao Nai drove all the way straight in, went around to the west of Qinghai, and fought straight to Xuande City.

    The person responsible for guarding the city was Attar's other younger brother, Adu.

    Since Acha took over the power of Tuyuhun, Murong Liyan was just a puppet in his hands.  The power of the entire country was completely in the hands of the three brothers of King Xuan, Acha.

    Acha let one younger brother be in charge of the army and another younger brother in charge of government. He excluded others and suppressed dissidents, which made everyone dissatisfied.  However, Acha had both soldiers and righteousness in his hands, so no one could take advantage of him.

    At this time, there were less than 2,000 people in Xuande City, but because it was the rear area of ??Tuyuhun, the defense was not very tight.  In fact, after so many years of development, the Tuyuhun people have become a semi-nomadic and semi-settled nation. At least the upper ruling class has settled down. After all, they can live a stable and comfortable life. Who wants to wander around.  Therefore, Xuande City is full of core figures from Tuyuhun.

    The Sui army's light cavalry arrived, and the Tuyuhun people were completely unprepared, so they were defeated by the Sui army.  Huang Mingliao took advantage of the victory and entered the city and occupied Xuande City.

    This time, with a quick-war attitude, Huang Mingliao killed all the rebellious old nobles in the city. Even Murong Liyan, the pseudo-khanate supported by Acha, was killed by Huang Mingliao.

    Poor Murong Liyan, before he became a khan, he could only be a transparent figure in the tribe, living a cautious life.  Murong Liyan's father, Murong Shifu, was Murong Fuyun's brother and the former Khan of Tuyuhun. Unfortunately, six years after he ascended the throne, a rebellion broke out in the country. Murong Shifu died, and his younger brother Murong Fuyun succeeded to the throne.  As the son of the former Khan, Murong Liyan's status was extremely embarrassing.  Fortunately, nomadic tribes are not like the Central Plains dynasties, and it is common for brothers to succeed. Otherwise, Murong Liyan would have been killed by his uncle.

    After Ah Cha rebelled, he supported Murong Shifu because he was dissatisfied with Murong Rong, Murong Fushun and others.  Unfortunately, God did not bless him, and Murong Liyan met Huang Mingliao again.

    Huang Mingliao did not have the same hesitation as his elder brother. He did not know that the Tibetans would soon become powerful and unify the entire Qinghai-Tibet region, and he would not be embarrassed by whether to leave the Tuyuhun people to stop the Tibetans.  He simply wanted to solve the Tuyuhun problem as soon as possible and end chaos with chaos, so he was extremely ruthless.

    Within a few days, thousands of people were killed in Xuande City, all of them were the upper-class nobles of Tuyuhun.  Huang Mingliao didn't show any mercy, and he killed everyone with heads and corpses in a sea of ??blood.

    At this time, Huang Mingliao's army commander Shi Liangshuo advised Huang Mingliao whether to leave some of his people to serve in the Sui Dynasty, but Huang Mingliao refused.

    What to do if they were left behind, continue to be raised by the Sui Dynasty and then rebel against the Sui Dynasty, it would be better for the Sui Dynasty to do it themselves.

    As for the possible turmoil after killing all these Tuyuhun nobles, Huang Mingliao didn't care.  If they want to cause chaos, then go ahead. Sui Dynasty only needs to defend Xuande City, and maybe sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight.  And only by cleaning away the Tuyuhun marks on the local people can they become Sui people more actively.

    Seeing that Huang Mingliao could not be persuaded, Liang Shuo had no choice but to let it go.

    In fact, after the purges of the Sui army, the entire upper class nobility in Tuyuhun almost disappeared.

    In fact, in ancient times, the composition of a nation mainly refers to the composition of the upper ruling class, especially the nomadic tribes.?And many middle- and lower-class people may belong to more than ten tribes in their lives. The influencing factors are not simply based on blood relationships.  Therefore, when the upper-class nobles of a nation no longer exist, the nation will completely cease to exist.  This is why so many ethnic groups in history have disappeared in the long river of time.

    Tuyuhun started as a personal name, then became a clan name, then became a country name, and finally became a geographical noun. After that, there is no successor.

    Huang Mingliao also ordered people to build a Jingguan outside Xuande City to deter the Tuyuhun people.

    After taking Xuande City, Huang Mingliao led his army westward, preparing to encircle and annihilate the main force of King Xuan Acha.  Huang Mingliao never thought of rescuing Shancheng. He wanted to lure the Tyuhun people to come by themselves.

    At this time, Acha, who had been besieging Shancheng, also received news that the Sui army was attacking Fuqi City.

    Because the morale of the Sui army had soared these days, their siege had no effect.  Moreover, the weather was severely cold and the conditions were difficult. The soldiers continuously attacked the city, and no one could stand it.

    When I was feeling worried, a letter asking for help from Fuqi City was sent to the army.  Acha was shocked when he received the news. In Fuqi City, there were the entire Tuyuhun center and Khans, as well as everyone's family members. The most important thing was that the defenders of Fuqi City only had more than 2,000 people, and they could not hold out for long.

    At this time, Acha did not care about attacking Shancheng, and immediately mobilized troops and horses to rescue Fuqi City.

    Compared with Fuqi City, Shancheng is nothing.  At this time, the Tuyuhun people's speed finally increased beyond normal. After giving the order the day before, they broke camp and set off at noon.

    It¡¯s no wonder that everyone is eager to return home, because they have their homes in Fuqi City, and no one wants their wife and children to become someone else¡¯s plaything.

    The Tuyuhun people, who had stormed the city wall the day before, almost retreated in despair the next day, which really surprised the Sui army.  Duan Wenchao somewhat understood that Wuwei's reinforcements had arrived.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? If he follows it with his tail attached, he will certainly be able to capture Po-feng.  It's a pity that the number of troops in the city is too small, so we can't send a hundred and eighty people to pursue them.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
