The third emperor of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 591

The morning was over, and Yang Tong was called by Yang Guang to the Honghui Hall in Ziwei City. The grandparents and grandchildren sat opposite each other on two chairs beside the desk, with a tea table carved from nanmu wood with golden threads in the middle.

He called Yang Tong over, but didn't say anything, then set up a game of Go and played against Yang Tong.Black and white have changed hands several times, the chess field is full and then empty, empty and full again, the only constant is that Yang Tong has been tortured and killed.

An hour passed.

Yang Guang curled his lips and threw his pieces on the chess field. He didn't bother to bully Yang Tong. He didn't feel any sense of accomplishment when he won. Playing is really boring, "There is an old saying: those who are good at chess must be good at planning, Dong, you can rule the country and the army You Fang, this game is not even as good as that of Kaimeng Zhitong, I feel ashamed."

Yang Tong was not at all ashamed, and said with a smile: "Grandfather, no one is perfect. Not everyone can be profound and profound. If you learn a lot, everything is simple and ordinary. It's better not to learn. Grandson thinks that the way of playing chess The most important thing is not to win or lose, but not to be disturbed by foreign objects, not to be moved by small profits, not to stick to small details, and to keep calm..."

"Calm down?" Yang Tong snorted, looked Yang Tong up and down, shook his head and said, "Except for a good skin, you look like a hooligan in every way!"

In the early days, he hid behind the Holy Martial Hall and listened to it from the beginning to the end. He was inconceivable about Yang Tong's way of handling things.He thought he was domineering enough, but Yang Tong was even more domineering. With just a few words, he designated the Wa Kingdom as the enemy of the Sui Dynasty, and forced many kings and envoys to sever ties with the Wa Kingdom. Surprisingly, no one in the Manchu Dynasty opposed it. One person jumped out to talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality.On the contrary, when dealing with the Tubo issue, Yang Tong, a shameless guy, held the whip of peace, benevolence and justice, making it impossible for Tubo to step down.

What is this called?
This is called respecting the emperor and acting alone.

It is also the ultimate goal of fighting life and death for the emperor and the family.What he couldn't do was finally realized in the hands of this grandson who had never shown himself before.

Seeing that the two of them stopped playing chess, Princess Lujiang, who was watching, collected the chess pieces one by one, brewed a pot of fragrant tea, and placed it on the tea table.Then take two white jade teacups, and pour half a cup of green tea soup for each of them, the hot air is dense and fragrant.Then she sat obediently on the side, her chin resting on her little hands, her big black eyes were embarrassed to keep staring at Yang Tong, but she glanced at his face from time to time.

Yang Guang signaled to Yang Tong to take care of himself, took a cup for himself, and took a sip, his demeanor like flowing clouds and flowing water was like a fairy.

Yang Tong was blunt and said nothing.

Yang Guang sighed, this guy has no taste...

This tea is naturally fried tea made by him, firstly to solve his own habit, so as not to be poisoned by the 'sencha' which is full of sour garlic, oil and salt, and secondly to make a big laugh.After several years of brewing, fried tea has become popular all over the world, and it has already replaced the previous "sencha", and the goal has been achieved.

Princess Lujiang kept glancing at Yang Tong, and the more she looked at her, the more her heart throbbed.The unraveling of the mystery of her life experience also dissipated the haze in her heart, and it was difficult to conceal the tenderness that had been suppressed for a long time.

This time!

Yang Tong couldn't take it anymore, Princess Lujiang stared at her with idiotic eyes, which made his heart shudder. It wasn't that he had any obstacles to women, but that he had always raised Yang Qinfang as his daughter.Now it's all right, Yang Qinfang no longer has any concerns about her background, and that fiery gaze made him feel a burning sensation.

Yang Guang secretly smiled.

Although Yang Tong is not at a loss, how vicious is his gaze?From Yang Tong's erratic eyes, one can guess Yang Tong's embarrassment and discomfort!He simply pretended to be deep, and ignored Yang Qinfang, only she was acting foolishly.It depends on how long this kid can stretch.

"Auntie..."

"Don't call me so affectionate, I'm not your aunt."

"Okay!" Yang Tong said helplessly, "You go back first, I have some important matters to discuss with the emperor's grandfather in detail."

I can't stand her anymore, so I hurriedly blasted her away.

"Oh!" Yang Qinfang pouted, stood up reluctantly,
"One family doesn't speak the same language! Sit down." Yang Guang pointed to the seat next to Yang Tong and said to Yang Qinfang.

"..." Yang Tong's face turned dark.

"Please don't worry, I don't have eyes and ears. I don't know what you say." Yang Qinfang seemed to understand Yang Tong's true meaning, and sat down next to Yang Tong with her neck stuck.

"Never mind!"

Yang Tong no longer persisted, looked at his grandfather with a teasing face, and coughed lightly, "How do you feel about my behavior this morning?"

"As far as I know, the Wa Kingdom is just a tiny place in the sea. Not to mention the small size of the country and the few people, there will be occasional occurrences of earth dragons turning around. It is not a problem at all. Why did the Dong children spend so much time plotting the Wa Kingdom?"

Yang Guang looked at Yang Tong with some puzzlement, that's why he called Yang Tong over.

"The country of Wa is a small country, and the country is small and the people are few. It is true! But there is a saying that the people are not enough to swallow the elephant!" Yang Tong is very disapproving of this kind of logic of thinking that the country is governed by heaven and the country is proud of the people.It is this tiny country with a small country and few people who has been staring at the fat elephant in the Central Plains like a poisonous snake since ancient times. When it got the chance, it almost swallowed the elephant in one gulp. Down!
After defining the Wa Kingdom, Yang Tong talked eloquently: "The Wa Kingdom is undergoing a transition from a tribal system to an imperial centralized system, but they not only lack living materials, but also lack talents. The key is that they lack cultural heritage, so they are eager to learn from the Central Plains. Political, economic, military, official system, etc., to form its own law and order system. In order to break the isolation and loneliness, Japan fought for Renna of Silla by force, and sent Sui envoys to repair it with us, in order to obtain the understanding and understanding of the Great Sui. Support, thereby enhancing their status."

"The closed and narrow geographical environment of the island country surrounded by the sea has caused the unique sense of depression and loneliness of the island country. The desire to break the tendency of isolation and loneliness has become an internal condition for the country to absorb other countries' civilizations and achieve itself. From the country of Japan, the country continues to attack Ren Na. Judging from recent incidents, Wa has always had the ambition and impulse to expand its land, and has always taken offensives against the mainland, dominated by the Central Plains Dynasty, while the Central Plains, Goguryeo, Silla, and Baekje have always been on the defensive against Wa. Wa sent Sui envoys It is not simply the idea of ​​learning the advanced culture of the Sui Dynasty and directly absorbing the excellent culture, and there is no so-called friendship. Among them, there is the intention of collecting information on the dynamics and political trends of the Sui Dynasty in order to invade Goguryeo and Silla."

"The King of Japan and Prince Shotoku, who is in power, are actually proficient in Sinology. The words 'the emperor at the sunrise sends a letter to the emperor at the sun' and 'the emperor of the east respects the emperor of the west' written in the national book are not clerical errors, but He intends to raise himself to the level of the great Sui Dynasty, so as to enhance his status, thus playing the role of a fox pretending to be a tiger. Not only the Japanese kingdom, but also the fundamental intention of Tubo to send envoys to Sui!"

"A lot of seemingly ordinary knowledge in my Central Plains is actually the result of thousands of years of discarding the chaff to save the essence. In our opinion, common knowledge, in countries without their own civilization like Tubo and Wa, is it not the country that has made a fortune? Heavy weapon. Even if a craftsman knows the secret skills and cherishes himself, he is afraid that others will learn them and become competitors, which will cause him to have no food. Isn’t this the case when it is enlarged to the national level?”

"Why not let foreigners feel the prosperity of our Great Sui Dynasty?" Yang Guang seemed to be slightly aware of the seriousness of the problem, but he still insisted on it.

Again!
Yang Tong had a headache and said, "It's not a bad thing to let foreigners experience Sui civilization and promote Sui culture, and it can even serve the purpose of assimilating foreigners, but construction technology, medical classics, and farming techniques are the foundation of a country's prosperity. Let's take the smelting technique as an example. My smelting technique in the Sui Dynasty is almost the best in the world. If it is passed on, it will only make the weapons of foreign races sharper and the armor stronger, and cultivate a well-armed and powerful enemy for yourself. If it is never passed on If you go out, the weapons of my Tai Sui will always be sharper than those of the foreign race, and the armor will always be stronger than that of the foreign race! What's wrong with keeping a hand for the foreign race who may become my enemy of the Tai Sui?"

"That's right!" Yang Guangmeng slapped his thigh and said with a smile: "This kind of thing that benefits others and harms oneself really shouldn't be done!"

Yang Tong was happy in his heart, he was worthy of being an emperor, his thoughts were active, and after a little dialing by himself, he realized the root of the problem!
"It is an eternal truth that things must decline when they are extreme, and they must prosper when they are extremely declining. Strategies are divided into internal and external, each is different but complementary, once formulated, it cannot be changed overnight, otherwise it will be abandoned halfway, wasting infinite manpower and material resources.”

"The foreign strategy is actually very simple. You can neither let a strong enemy country weaken to death, nor let a weak and small country grow a little bit! Use all means to participate in the internal affairs of the enemy country, let the powerful enemy country fall apart and cause endless internal strife, and let the weak The country and the tribe have to be attached to our Tai Sui, and if we do this, it will be enough to make our Tai Sui invincible forever."

Yang Guang interrupted Yang Tong with a wave of his hand, and frowned, "Why are you talking so complicated! Simply put, it's Changsun Sheng's six-character trick to deal with Turks!"

"What is the six-character mantra?" Yang Tong asked curiously.

"Changsun Sheng's six-character trick is to separate, divide, and support! Changsun Sheng uses power to separate Turkic khans, large and small, divides various camps with interests, and supports forces that are hostile to the Turkic Khan court."

Yang Guang recalled it for a while, and then continued: "In the second year of Emperor Kaihuang, the Turkic Khan was too large to manage by himself, so he divided the territory of the Turkic Khan into five Khans and divided it into one area! They are Shabo Slightly Great Khan, Second Khan, Abo Khan, Datou Khan and Tuli Khan. Among the five major Khans, Datou Khan, Abo Khan and Tuli Khan are all related to the Great Khan Shabo There is a slight contradiction. Changsun Sheng suggested that the father should take advantage of the internal conflicts of the Turks, which can achieve twice the result with half the effort. So the father sent two missions, one mission to find Datou Khan, expressing that I, Tai Sui, would ally with him; The other mission, led by Zhang Sun Sheng himself, went to Tuli Khan to reconnect with him."

"The more ruthless move was to deal with Abo Khan. At that time, Sabolo Khan gathered 40 soldiers from his headquarters and Abo Khan to break into the Great Wall. Uncle Wei led his troops to fight back against the Turks. When the Khan met, he took advantage of his repeated victories and underestimated the enemy, and attacked Wu Fou with five thousand cavalry, defeating Abo Khan's army. Changsun Sheng lobbied on the way of Abo Khan's withdrawal and lied to him that Sabolo had won a big victory. Annexed him, the only loser, and said that Datou had already made an alliance with us in the Sui Dynasty. If the two khans united, they would not be afraid of being annexed by Sabolo. Apo believed it was true, and immediately sent envoys to enter the court with Changsun Sheng. Sabolo Hearing that Abo Khan sent envoys to the Sui Dynasty, he thought he was going to unite with the Great Sui Dynasty, so he acted first and attacked Abo Khan's tribe before Abo Khan's army returned to the headquarters. Abo Khan and Datou The Khan attacked Sabolo, and those Awa tribes who were recruited by Sabolo were instigated by Changsun Sheng. After the confrontation, these people gave Sabolo a sharp knife from behind, and Sabolo fled in a disastrous defeat. The Turks split into two major factions, internal strife continued, and they were unable to invade the Great Sui Dynasty again! After that, Changsun Sheng has been serving as an envoy of the Turks, weakening the two Turks time and time again by means of alienation, division, and support."

Speaking of this, Yang Guang sighed: "During the period of dealing with the Turks, Changsun Sheng didn't use a knife or a gun, but only relied on tricks to disintegrate the powerful Turks time and time again, from a border trouble in the Sui Dynasty to a vassal. Rare. After he passed away, I used Pei Ju as a Turkic envoy, but unfortunately it didn't work! If Changsun Sheng was still alive, I wouldn't be trapped in Yanmen by Shibi!"

Yang Tong was even more emotional.

The world only knows about Su Qin and Zhang Yi, but in terms of national achievements, they are far behind Changsun Sheng who split the Turks one after another without a single soldier!
Seeing that Yang Guang was feeling a little sad, he quickly comforted him: "Although General Changsun Sheng is not often seen, my grandson believes that 'there are talented people from generation to generation, and each has been in the limelight for hundreds of years'."

"Heroic and magnificent, what a poem!" Yang Guang's eyes brightened when he heard it.

He is a genius, and what makes people unable to live is that he works harder than others, and even said bluntly, "The world thinks that I inherit the legacy of the first emperor to own the world. I will also be regarded as the Son of Heaven."

This is very conceited, but Yang Guang does have the capital of conceit. As a genius among the top two generations, he worked hard when he was young, practiced martial arts hard, and studied diligently.

If the essays are brilliant, he can be regarded as the best contemporary literary master. His "Drinking Horses and the Great Wall Cave Tour" written by him is majestic and magnificent, and is the founding work of the Frontier Poetry School. Contemporary top class.

If grandparents and grandchildren compete in poetry creation, without plagiarism, Yang Tong's end will be no different from the result of the chess game.The only one who is sure to win is martial arts, but this is also bullying the elderly. If the two are of the same age, Yang Tong may not be able to do it.

"Where is Shangque? Read it quickly."

"Huh?" Yang Tong was dumbfounded. He couldn't say "Li Du's poems have been handed down by mouth". He said helplessly: "The article is naturally made, and it is a skillful hand! How can there be a full story?"

"That's another good sentence."

"Talk about state affairs, don't talk about poetry!"

"Be sure to complete these two poems." Yang Guang, who was still full of meaning, ordered.

"Here!" Yang Tong was so angry that he slapped himself unconscious.

"Go on!"

"Okay!" Yang Tong nodded, and continued the topic just now, saying: "Long-term strategy is divided into internal and external, and external strategy is the six-character trick of General Changsun. But if you want to implement it successfully, you must look down on the arrogant Self-confidence is a good thing, but self-confidence can easily lead to major mistakes in the entire national strategy."

Yang Guang stared and said, "Calling Sang and scolding Huai?"

Yang Tong wants to cry but has no tears.

I really forgot about this big demon king, but I'm just discussing the matter, but you are talking about yourself, isn't this too unreasonable?

"The emperor's grandfather misunderstood. What the grandson meant was that there are only eternal interests between countries, and there are no permanent friends. As long as the interests of our Sui Dynasty are damaged, they are enemies, and enemies, no matter how strong or weak, must be treated equally. Keep the highest vigilance at all times! At the beginning, Qimin Khan was just a bereaved dog, but in just a few decades, he has developed into a powerful enemy with millions of soldiers. Conceit and loss of vigilance caused him to develop like wildfire, and when we realized the danger, it was too late, this lesson is too profound, we must remember it, right?" Yang Tong said with a mournful face.

Although Yang Guang still felt that Yang Tong was criticizing Sang Huai, but it was too late to lose his temper at this time, because he was stunned by the shock...

The idea of ​​"there are only eternal interests between countries, but no permanent friends" has completely subverted Yang Tong's understanding of the relationship between countries, but after a closer look at the three flavors, he found it very reasonable.

"In all dynasties, there have been envoys who have visited the emperor of the Central Plains. As long as they say a few beautiful words, flatter them fiercely, and express their loyalty impassionedly, the emperor will immediately be very happy and reward them with money and treasures like mountains and seas!"

"..." Yang Guang's face was like the bottom of a pot, and he always felt that Yang Tong was talking about him everywhere. He snorted coldly and said, "What do you know? It's true that I was powerful in the world before the Sui Dynasty, but your great-grandfather and I were the same Facing the abyss, it is like walking on thin ice. If we do not accept outsiders with a broad mind and follow the customs of the previous dynasty, this will become a reason for criticism from the world's aristocratic families. Instead of this, it is better to follow the etiquette system and win the support of Confucian scholars Slowly support it, and use it to compete against the powerful and powerful in Guanlong. Moreover, this is also to promote the grandeur of the Sui Dynasty to the people outside the Huai Dynasty. How come you don’t take everything seriously?"

"I don't think that's how the magnificence comes from... If I were the leader of the aliens, I would definitely send envoys to the Sui Dynasty twelve times a year, and ask them to hand over a letter of credence, kowtow, and sing praises Every month, let the supreme emperor of Shangbang experience the supreme glory of the celestial kingdom, feel the sincere surrender of the people outside China, and then get the reward of the entire country's wealth from the Central Plains, as long as twelve times a year, 12 years You don’t have to worry about eating and drinking in the end... Isn’t this a good deal?”

These words were stuck in his throat, and Yang Tong could not utter them.

As early as in his previous life, he was quite speechless about this kind of tribute system that was so successful, and Emperor Wen actually recruited more than 20 soldiers and civilians within the territory of the Great Sui Dynasty to build the southern Turkic Khan Court and the majestic grandeur for Qimin Khan. This model seems to have been passed down to the [-]th century with the official system established by Emperor Wen.

Now it's really cool to be able to complain in front of those who have done their best.

"It's a good deal!" Seeing his father's dark face, Yang Qinfang, who also felt that Yang Tong's words made sense, said in support: "Father, my daughter thinks that the money is taxed by the people, and every copper coin is owned by countless people." Sweat, it is reasonable to use it to support the royal family, officials, and the army, and there is nothing to say, but it is a bit unreasonable to use the hard-earned money of the people to reward a small country with a few beautiful words!"

Yang Guang shook his head and said with a wry smile, "Isn't it always like this since the Han Dynasty?"

"The Xiongnu will go south if they win the war. If they can't win, they will get more. In addition to gold and silver treasures, there are also delicate princesses. What happened? The money is gone and then they are robbed. ?It shows that giving money and women is not a long-term solution at all. It has no effect except to support the enemy and encourage the enemy's arrogance. From the Han Dynasty to the present, hundreds of years have passed, but any dynasty has no effect. I thought about changing this kind of foreign relations, but my thinking was still in the Han Dynasty. I really don’t understand what there is to brag about.”

"The emperor wanted to make a marriage, but he wanted to satisfy his vanity, because it meant that the other party surrendered, even if it was only on the surface. And the ministers wanted to make a marriage, and some of them were thinking about the country. They felt that fighting would cost too much money and would empty the treasury. They are limited by their horizons and constrained by conservative and rigid benevolence and morality, and they don't know how to "raise war with war", "raise the army with war", and "rich the country with war". Anyway, it’s not his daughter, who can not only satisfy the emperor’s good reputation during the civil rule period, but also play the role of suppressing generals and highlighting civil servants, not to mention the guilt of failure.”

Yang Tong raised his head proudly, with a sonorous tone: "How can you push a woman out to seek peace? Once the backbone of the country is broken, it will never be brought back... Once the precedent is set, future generations will learn from it when they encounter difficulties. , not to be ashamed, but to be proud of following the ancestral system, in reality? It’s just a reason for liking life, coveting life and fearing death. I only know how to live with women and relatives for a while, but don’t work hard to rule. Destroyed in the hands of this kind of descendants? And I will break this strange phenomenon, let the Sui Dynasty live with more dignity, and break this law. Not only must this dynasty implement this national soul, but also respect it as an iron law , if someone intends to break the precept, then any clan can replace the throne."

Yang Guang murmured Yang Tong's words: "'No marriage, no compensation, no land, no tribute, the emperor guards the country, the king dies in the country...Wen is not greedy for money, military is not afraid of death...'"

Iron bones, clear at a glance!
If Da Sui could do this, how great and majestic would this country be?
