Chapter 163 The Art of Politics

Tuyuhun royal court

Tuguhun Great Khan Pagunalut looked at his own uncle angrily. How could he be defeated like this? Tens of thousands of cavalry were lost in one fell swoop. All of these were Tuyuhun's good sons. Now let you give it all at once. Lost.

In the past few days, Tuyuhun Khan continued to receive news from all over the country. Although Li Xiang caused him a lot of losses, and even many of the guards around him died, but Then again, this didn't hurt the entire Tuyuhun, but the disastrous defeat of the Ronggong tribe made him really aware of the crisis this time.

"What did this great Khan tell you that day, so that when you found them, you would not leave and wait for the troops of more than a dozen tribes around to gather. Why didn't you listen to this great man and insisted on launching an attack on them? You Looking at the current results, how can you give me an explanation and how can you give an explanation to the people of the world?"

Bogunalut said angrily, you must know that in the territory of Tuyuhun, the Ronggong tribe is extremely important, second only to the Wangting tribe and the Midu tribe. If a large army is recruited, the Ronggong tribe can spare at least 20,000 The army is better now, let alone the 20,000 troops. From now on, the Ronggong tribe will only be left with a bunch of old, weak, sick and disabled. Whether they can hold on to their original territory is another matter.

"Please spare my life, the Great Khan, please spare your life, the Great Khan..."

Uncle Yu Dan is really scared now. In the past, this guy was not afraid of anything. He always felt that these things were far away from him. Now that he has defeated all the elites of his tribe, he also sees it from his nephew's eyes. When it comes to murderous intent, does this guy want to kill himself?

Tuyuhun Khan really had this idea. This uncle had always been dissatisfied with him. He always said outside that the position of the Khan was not bright. It was reasonable to take this opportunity to reduce his power.

However, Nalut looked at Prime Minister Midu next to him and immediately eliminated this idea. In the past, the three major tribes stood together to form a delicate balance. The Midu tribe has developed relatively rapidly in recent years. If there were no Rong, As for the Gong Tribe, it would be difficult for the Wangting Tribe alone to suppress the Midu Tribe.

"Not for the sake of the late emperor, I would have killed you a long time ago. Go back to your own tribe immediately and guard your own land. You cannot take a step without this Khan's order."

It took five minutes before Nalut said this. Yu Dan breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he can keep his position, you can scold him as much as you want. After all, we are the one who will take care of the matter this time. make a mistake.

After hearing this, Prime Minister Midu had no expression on his face, but he still felt a little uncomfortable. Your own uncle has made such a big mistake. Is it enough to just scold him? How to convince the public in the future?

"Great Khan, I'm afraid there's something wrong with this matter. The reason why I, Tuyuhun, have been able to stand for hundreds of years is because of clear rewards and punishments. The emperor's uncle has spent tens of thousands of troops at this moment and gained nothing. If this happens, I'm afraid the people in the world will not accept it. .”

Nalut knew that Prime Minister Midu had something to say, but he didn't expect to say it so quickly. Now that the Tang army has won a great victory, our most important thing should be to think about how to deal with it, instead of talking about the emperor's uncle here. fault.

It's a pity that Prime Minister Midu said this, and in front of the emperor and ministers of Tuyuhun. If the Great Khan had not expressed his position, then the people below would probably be chilled. If we make mistakes, we will be beaten and punished. Your uncle If you make a mistake, just let it go? And he still made a huge mistake.

"Great Khan, you must not listen to this thief. The three major tribes stand in harmony is the rule set by your grandfather. If there is no Ronggong tribe, this person will have to compete with the Wangting tribe. How can he and us It’s not one heart.”

Although Yu Dan is not good at fighting, political struggle is no problem. This immediately pricked the most nervous nerve in Nalut's heart. Regardless of how their uncle and nephew fought, they were still a family, and the throne could not be lost. It is on someone else's head, but if Prime Minister Midu gets involved, it is very likely that he will lose power in the future.

"Yu Dan, you have made a big mistake. Is there anything wrong in punishing you according to the rules of Tuyuhun? As the prime minister of Tuyuhun, I must implement the laws of Tuyuhun. Since you did not obey the orders of the Great Khan, then you should be punished for it. Pay the price for this fiasco instead of just biting people here like a mad dog.”

Prime Minister Midu has an upright and awe-inspiring image. In the eyes of everyone, what Prime Minister Midu said is correct. If rewards and punishments are not clear and everything depends on the Khan's preferences, will anyone still work hard in the future?

Nalut's mind was also running rapidly. If Miducheng raised this matter in front of everyone, he would have to give everyone an explanation. Although he also wanted to keep his position as the leader of the Yudan tribe, he Looking at it now, I'm afraid I can't save it.

"Sanghir."

Nalut spoke, and everyone in the entire camp fell silent. This man was the current prince of Tuyuhun and Nalut's youngest son. After Zaterk's accident, this man became the prince of Tuyuhun.

"My son is here."

This guy was also eager to try. Although he didn't know what his father meant by calling him out, he vaguely felt that he might be going to take over his uncle's tribe. Although he had suffered a lot of losses in this war, he was still Tuyuhun's large tribe, even though he is now a prince, he does not have many soldiers and horses under his command, and his strength is not very strong.

Just like his eldest brother Zaterk, what could he do if he had been a prince for more than ten years? He could not be dethroned with just one word from his father.

If you want to survive in the land of Tuyuhun, you must have soldiers and horses. If you don't have soldiers and horses, you will not be safe at all times.

"From now on, the Ronggong tribe will be handed over to you, and you will be given five thousand elite soldiers. Yu Dan will stay in the royal court to recuperate."

When Tuyuhun Khan said this, the people present raised their thumbs from the bottom of their hearts. This move was absolutely brilliant. It not only punished the disobedient uncle, but also gave everyone an explanation.

The most important thing is that the power of the royal family is not weakened. You asked me to punish Yu Dan. I have already removed all his positions, but who should be in charge of the Ronggong tribe is still my word.

Prime Minister Midu did not expect this result. If he had known this was the case, he should have allowed Yu Dan to continue to manage. This time he really shot himself in the foot and made the Khan's control continue to increase...
