Chapter 148
What surprised Wu Yonglin was that as soon as King Yundan left, King Chizhaxizibabe of the Yalong Juewo king and King Jidnimagun of the Western Ali king also arrived at the cell where Wu Yonglin was located and tried to win him over, or to find out the truth.
Wu Yonglin only told them about the "Sea Alliance" between Wei and Jin. Similarly, they were scared to death. They were willing to recruit Wu Yonglin and the 2ooo people behind him under their command. However, Wu Yonglin politely declined the good intentions of the two Tibetan kings. He reassured the two Tibetan kings that if there are any subsequent changes, Wu Yonglin will definitely notify them of the news.
The two Tibetan kings went with great gratitude, but the Choumli next to him came up with a puzzled look on his face.
"Since we have agreed to form an alliance with King Yundan, why did you tell them such a secret matter without any hesitation?" It was obvious that Tsomuli was dissatisfied with what Wu Yonglin had done just now, and even his name became a little disrespectful.
Wu Yonglin didn't care and said with a serious look on his face: "What do they lack now? I can tell you directly that they lack a sense of security, just like King Yundan. If they don't make the right choice in the current situation, what is waiting for them is likely to be a catastrophe."
"You mean some people have already been trying to win over them?"
Talking to smart people is simple. There are so many things that they can see through the clues you reveal. Wu Yonglin nodded with a smile.
"Although King Yundan and these two Tibetan kings are separating from each other, if these people have the same beliefs, can they really make public and private? I don't know."
Wu Yonglin was indeed right. As a ruler, what he must have to do is to make the dynasty he ruled live longer. Moreover, Tubo has many religions in recent years, and even Buddhism that has disappeared for hundreds of years has gradually recovered in these areas in recent years. King Yundan even sent some royal children to India to learn authentic Buddhism. For a visionary ruler, they will definitely try in different directions to make their rule more smooth.
Every king wants to have a prosperous scene of all nations coming to dynasty. As for whether it can be realized, they will not know, but King Yundan took at least the first step: to take the essence of the original religion and remove the dross.
Tubo is a very magical country. They all rule with religion. In fact, there is no essential difference from the Confucian rule of the country in the Wei Dynasty. Their rulers are all sons of gods. Only those with such status can have the orthodox nature of rule over the world. All other demons and gods are fighting against the heavens and fighting against the righteous people who support this divine power in the world. They will fail one day, which fully reflects the despicable nature of the feudal class.
From the first day of birth in this environment, as an ordinary person who was trampled under the royal power, he was put on a heavy shackle from the day he was born. As the noble King Yundan, when he had no faith in Tubo or had too much faith, there was actually a crisis in his heart. King Chizhaxizibabe of the King of Yalong Juewo and King Jidnimagun of the King of Ali in the west must have also considered this aspect. It is not important to believe in the doctrine. The key is whether this doctrine can be beneficial to his rule and whether the regime can be held firmly in his own hands for so long.
I was born with the same roots, and the second and third brothers saw that the eldest son was born, and he would definitely go to find the eldest son to find out his ways to get rich. Everyone is from Tubo, and the eldest son will definitely not tell the way to get rich completely from his own mouth. After all, you have not only demolished my walls over the years, but also ran to my yard to steal sweet potatoes. I tell you this, I can't swallow the breath in my heart, but when one day the disaster is coming, everyone is a family. How can I let you die? If a few people can form a united front, then resist the upcoming storm, will everyone have much greater chance of winning?
So an outsider who is most suitable like Wu Yonglin became a bridge for several people to form an alliance. He would not let the three of them lose face at all, but also simply resolve the crisis of everyone.
This was told to him by Wu Yonglin in front of Duanmu Xiong. After all, if this middleman is a person with Tubo blood in the future, it would be more appropriate. After all, family scandals should not be made public, and some faces should still be given.
"They are actually already forming an alliance with us?"
"It's hard to say now. At least they won't be enemies with us. Thanks to King Yundan for going back and blowing a wind in his ears for them. They came here just to prove whether what King Yundan said is true. If I didn't tell the truth to King Yundan, they would think King Yundan was scaring them with some alarmist things. Once this matter was revealed from the mouth of an outsider, it means that this matter is most likely true. As for the truth or false news, they will definitely find someone to confirm it, but before that, their attitude towards us will only be waiting and watching, and it is unlikely to help."
"Will King Yundan believe what you said?"
"Yanzhou (now Beijing) in northern Hebei, Yunzhou (now Datong, Shanxi) in northeastern Hedong and more than ten nearby prefectures, collectively known as the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, were originally the territory of the Han family. During the Five Dynasties, it was occupied by the Great Liao established by the Khitan people. After the founding of the State of the State, the Wei Dynasty wanted to restore the lost land in this area to consolidate the border defense. Unfortunately, they were defeated when they used troops, but were attacked by Liao. Later, they had to pay 500,000 taels of silver (200,000 taels of silver and 300,000 pieces of silk) of silver and silk every year to buy the Liao court in exchange for humiliating peace. This situation has continued for more than a hundred years. King Yundan easily analyzed from this whether what I said is true. Now from the map, these Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun are exactly at the strategic point of using troops on both sides. If not..."
Of course, Wu Yonglin could not tell Cuo Muli that it was because of Song Jiang and Fang La's rebellion that the court sent elite troops to quell the extensive Jiangnan Rebellion. Jiangnan was the imperial court's silver treasury, and most of the military expenditure and internal government demand came from here. This time, the suppression of the rebellion not only weakened the national strength, but also missed the best opportunity to attack the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun. Later, the Jin Dynasty took advantage of the situation. Everyone knows what happened next.
Cuomli was deeply impressed by Wu Yonglin's complete view of the overall situation. He knew himself and his enemy and was invincible in a hundred battles. He was honored to become Wu Yonglin's ally. As those guys who were enemies of Wu Yonglin, Wu Yonglin knew that these people would definitely die miserably, and these people had no ability to fight him at all.
