Jingwen temporarily lived in Tieshan, and he pushed everything to Feng Yong and Liu Renliang, and he went to accompany Ashina Yun for his "honeymoon" again. Although Ashina Yun is a woman of Jingwen, there are many political factors. But since Jingwen had already eaten her, he didn't have the idea of spitting it out. Anyway, if the Ashina family wants to revive, it will take at least twenty years, and it is not impossible to help them a little after twenty years. So, now that it's delivered to your door, it's okay to accept it. And in the past few days, Jingwen has been doing some things with Ashina Yun from time to time to solve the problem of personal physiological needs since the expedition. And although Ash Nayun has no so-called love for Jingwen, at least he has no bad feelings, so he recognizes Jingwen. But Jingwen knew that in the past few days, when he was doing the things he loved to do with Ash Nayun, Duguxin was always peeking outside the tent, obviously very curious about this kind of thing. Jingwen wanted to take the opportunity to pull Duguxin over several times, but Duguxin ran faster than a rabbit by relying on light skills, so he has not been able to take advantage of the situation to push Duguxin down.

However, when Jingwen and Ashina Yun were enjoying the snow scene, someone came to report to work.

"Jieshuai, there is a person who claims to be Xue Yantuoyi's man."

"Yi Nan? Xue Yantuo? Go and call Qiao Shiwang! Jingwen said.

Soon, Qiao Shiwang came over.

"Old Qiao, didn't you have some contact with this Xue Yantuo? What kind of person is this Xue Yantuo, and what kind of person is their leader, Yi Nan? Jingwen asked.

Qiao Shiwang took the initiative to answer: "Xue Yantuo is the largest tribe in the Tiele tribe, and they are actually an alliance of the Tiele tribe. In fact, on the steppe, the Turks are not the only tribes, and there are many small tribes in the steppe, they are subject to the Eastern and Western Turks, and accept protection. However, at that time, the Turkic Jieli exploited these tribes very strictly. As a result, these tribes rose up in rebellion. And the Turks are also unable to suppress the bullet, causing this momentum to be almost unstoppable. Later, my Tang Dynasty was preparing to go north to attack the Turks, so the emperor sent me to communicate with Xue Yantuo and fight together to attack the Turks. Now that the Turks are gone, they are naturally going to find us. ”

"Hmph, this grandson is here to ask me for benefits!" Jingwen snorted.

Jingwen didn't know that this Xue Yantuo wanted to get the benefits they deserved. Since Xue Yantuo and Datang are allies, now the Turks have perished. Naturally, the spoils should be divided. The Tang Dynasty and Xue Yantuo divided the spoils, and divided the benefits obtained after the fall of the Turks to see who could get what benefits. However, this distribution of spoils is exquisite. Sometimes, the unequal distribution of spoils can be said to be the beginning of the outbreak of war. In battle, both sides may attack the enemy with one heart. But once the enemy is destroyed, the two sides, who were originally allies, may start to conspire with each other. This is also known as the issue of sharing the spoils, because everyone wants to get more of the stolen goods. It would have been easy to divide the spoils. Whoever contributes more will get more. However, in this regard, it is often impossible to calculate who has the most credit. So, this one has to be ridiculed.

"Qiao Shiwang. At that time, the emperor asked you to hook up with Xue Yantuo, what did you promise them on behalf of the emperor? Jingwen asked.

Qiao Shiwang replied: "I just promised them on behalf of the emperor, and the emperor can canonize them as the True Pearl Khan, and nothing else!" ”

"You didn't promise anything after defeating the Turks. How to divide the benefits? Jingwen asked.

"The emperor asked me to tell them that the river loop can be used as a boundary." Qiao Shiwang said.

"The Loop? The Yellow River is harmful, but only rich? Jingwen suddenly remembered a sentence that is often found in history books.

Here is the Loop. It's not a thing, it's a geographical noun. Jingwen has read many books, and Chinese history is inextricably linked to this loop. The Loop is a plain that is capable of producing large quantities of grain and is also capable of grazing. The Yellow River has always been flooding in the Central Plains, but when it came to the Hetao, it became a good thing to feed the local people. In the Hetao, because of the irrigation of the Yellow River, the land there is fertile and there is no shortage of water resources. The steppe nomads have always wanted to obtain the Hetao Plain, so that they can not only supplement the food that the steppe peoples are very lacking. The Central Plains people hope to be able to obtain the Hetao Plain and use it to raise war horses. As a result, it is difficult to reconcile the contradictions between the two sides.

And this has always been the focus of competition between Han Chinese and northern nomads, and many people understand this. Because if the Han people had the Hetao Plain, not only could the food pressure be greatly relieved, but also a large number of pastures could be obtained to raise horses, so that there would be no shortage of war horses. Later, there was a theory that the Song Dynasty was unable to raise war horses because of the loss of the Hetao, and as a result, it was not the opponent of the nomads. Throughout Chinese history, the ownership of the Hetao Plain has always been a barometer of a Central Plains dynasty. The Han Dynasty had the Hetao, which laid the foundation for the strength of the Han Dynasty. And the Tang Dynasty had the Hetao, and the Tang Dynasty was also able to be strong. And as long as it is a great unified dynasty, it will definitely find a way to obtain the Hetao Plain. Therefore, the Hetao has always been the focus of competition between the Central Plains and the grassland peoples.

Now that the Turks have been defeated, as long as it is a normal Central Plains political family, they all understand the role of the Hetao. Datang must not lose the Hetao, otherwise Datang will be really dangerous next. Datang's current war horses are actually just water without a source, and they all rely on trading. However, the trading of war horses has always been unstable, because the strategic resource of war horses is in the hands of potential enemies, who can rest assured? The Song Dynasty had no way, so it could not master the Hetao. But now that Datang has a way, naturally he can't let Hetao out of his hands. I'm afraid that if there is no Hetao, then the Tang Dynasty will definitely become weaker and weaker in the future, especially the cavalry. Now that Datang has just opened the country, it may still be strong. But once a few decades have passed, it may not be!

"Jieshuai, Xue Yantuo's Yinan Khan wants you to go and talk to him, about letting my Tang fulfill the agreement and give them the Hetao area!" The orderly at the door said.

"It seems that these guys are not good, and the good ones are not coming!" Jingwen said.

Let's not talk about whether Jingwen has the right to negotiate with them, even if Jingwen does, he will definitely not agree to give them the Hetao. After defeating the Turks, Xue Yantuo was a potential enemy, so Jingwen would definitely not give the Hetao to future enemies. (To be continued......)
