Six hundred and forty-eight, the good news of Wei Xingping

In the eyes of others, this news may be worthless, but it has another meaning for Li Xingzhou.

The Qiyan tribe began to attack the Tatar tribe, indicating that Temujin's journey to unify the grassland has begun.

The Tatar tribe was originally a thug of the Jin Dynasty on the grassland. In the past, the Jin Dynasty protected it, and no other tribe could do anything to the Tatar tribe. The Tatar tribe and Temujin were a feud. Temujin's father died at the hands of the Tatar people. Because of the Jin Dynasty, the Tatar people could not be eliminated. Now the opportunity has come.

In Li Xingzhou's opinion, the Tatars were undoubtedly stupid. They did not see the situation clearly. They relied on the support of the Jin Kingdom and offended too many people. After gradually becoming stronger, they wanted to get rid of the Jin Kingdom.

But they did not expect that the Tatar tribe was a dog raised on the grasslands of the Jin Kingdom. The so-called beating of dogs depends on the owner. It is precisely because of the existence of the Jin Kingdom that the tribes they offended cannot avenge them. Once they get rid of the Jin Kingdom, they will become a bossless stray dog, and no one dares to hit two sticks.

Sure enough, as soon as the Tatar tribe rebelled, the Qiyan tribe, which had long been revenge, sent troops, and joined forces with the powerful Krei tribe in the west, as well as many tribes that had celebrated the Tatar tribe.

After he arrived at Tingyulou, he went to the backyard first and ordered the Royal Palace Intelligence Bureau, which was managed by Yankun, to pay close attention to the situation on the northern grasslands.

"Why are you so concerned about the Mobei grassland?" Wei Yubai was a little puzzled: "There are far away, and they are all barbarians and foreigners, so there is no need to be afraid of them."

"The world is impermanent, who knows that there will be a hero in the grassland? Think about the Jurchens of the Liao Kingdom. In the past, among the people of Jing and Liao people, they were only savages in the ice and snowy land of Liaodong. Once the Jurchen tribes were unified, they would immediately become an unstoppable Liaodong hero.

What if the grassland tribes were also unified?" Li Xingzhou said.

Wei Yubai said nothing, "What the prince said is indeed reasonable, but I think the Jin Kingdom is the most important thing right now."

Li Xingzhou nodded. This is the truth. Most of the time in previous dynasties, the Central Plains dynasties were able to suppress the surrounding ethnic minorities and nomadic peoples. It was not that they were not good at fighting, nor was it all because of technical backwardness. Because in the era of cold weapons, technology was not the big deal that determines victory, but more about culture and system.

The Central Plains region has developed rapidly, the people have a high national awareness, and the system is more advanced, so they can often unite, effectively dispatch and deal with foreign enemies. Therefore, all ethnic groups in the north are always unable to confront the Han people in the Central Plains, unless civil strife in the Central Plains.

But now, due to the culture of various ethnic groups in the north, the system has gradually developed and gradually needs to be level with the Central Plains, and many people realize that only by uniting can they become stronger.

The first thing to do is the Khitans. Emperor Jingzong of Liao valued Han Delang for the sinicization reform, integrated the Khitan tribes, and then the Liao Kingdom, which dominated the north, reached its peak and entered the historical stage.

Then came the Jurchens in Liaodong (now northeastern). After several generations of efforts, the Wanyan family integrated various Jurchen tribes, and the Jurchens immediately went to the historical stage.

Finally, there were the Mongolians. Temujin integrated the grassland tribes, and the Mongolians immediately went to the historical stage. In this era, it was really exciting and extremely tragic.

When they were waiting to the third floor, Wei Xingping had been waiting there for a long time, followed by a personal soldier, "Sister! Prince!" He screamed excitedly when he saw them.

Wei Yubai hasn't seen his family for a long time, and he is happy to see his younger brother.

"Sister, you have been running with the prince for almost a year. I am afraid that even my younger brother will not remember it." Wei Xingping joked.

Wei Yubai pressed him down and sat down: "What nonsense is it? You can go smoothly."

"Of course, I will take a battalion of elite soldiers. The bandits in the Green Forest dare to attack me unless they don't have eyes, hahaha." Although Wei Xingping was a few years older, he was still like the frivolous general who came to the capital a few years ago, and he did not change at all.

He was about to salute, but Li Xingzhou smiled and said, "No, just do whatever you want."

"Okay! The prince is so cheerful, he hasn't changed at all." He said happily and was about to sit down. The personal soldier standing next to him coughed, and Wei Xingping stopped moving again, "I... I'd better give a polite manners. A gentleman's kindness, no, no..." He couldn't think of the next sentence for a long time.

Li Xingzhou and Wei Yubai looked at each other and laughed at each other. They saw the tricks. When they looked at his personal soldiers, they were an old man.

"Who is this old man?"

"He is the manager of the mansion. My father sent him to monitor me and prevent me from making trouble in the capital." Wei Xingping said with a depressed look on his face.

When he and Wei Yubai heard this, they both laughed, and the old man quickly apologized.

Li Xingzhou asked them all to sit down and then asked someone to serve the food and drinks. Wei Xingping was not polite, and said while eating, shaking out all the explanations Wei Chaoren had given him. The old man next to him was shaking his beard.

He laughed loudly after hearing this: "Hahaha, your father is considerate, there is indeed such a possibility."

"Ah, the prince really wants to keep me as a hostage!" Wei Xingping looked reluctant.

Li Xingzhou smirked, "Hehe, I want to keep your sister and what are you doing."

"Oh~~hehehe." Wei Xingping also smiled evilly.

"What did you two say? You won't eat more food..." Wei Yubai interrupted quickly.

"Prince, why did you call me here this time?"

"There is a big deal, but it's not that you are asked to be a hostage. When you go back, you have to tell your father that I can trust him, and his daughter is still a hostage for me. Let him rest assured." Li Xingzhou joked.

"Let you come, first of all, you are the Saint, tell the emperor about Guan Bei's situation so that he can rest assured. Secondly..." Li Xingzhou paused.

"What's the second?" Wei Xingping put down his chopsticks and came over curiously.

"The second is that as the Privy Councilor, I am preparing to replace the Guanbei Army with a new weapon, that is, firearms. This is why I asked you to bring a battalion of troops to come."

"What!" Wei Xingping stood up excitedly, "Prince, you...you, you really want to change our Guanbei Army to firearms! It is the kind used by the new army, the one used by the Liao people when the new army defeated the Liao people!"

Now even the old soldiers next to them couldn't sit still and looked over curiously.

Li Xingzhou smiled and said, "That's right, the Guanbei Army has made great achievements and is now directly confronting the Jin people in Yanshan Prefecture. Shanhaiguan to the north is still in the hands of the Jin people. Guanbei Army has the greatest pressure, so it is natural to change your clothes."

"Okay! Thank you, thank you, thank you for your kindness!" Wei Xingping was so excited that he knelt down and bowed.

Li Xingzhou helped him up: "Don't, I just paid for the money, but you have your life. After the Holy One, I will send a battalion of troops and follow you to transport arms north. In this way, if you bring you, you will have two battalions of troops.

But they have another task, which is to hand over the ordnance replaced by Guanbei Army to them. Do you understand?"
