On September 7, National Capital. 九月七日,京师。 Although Li Jing has not accepted the Xun Yu scheme, reported this matter Dynasty Court, the goal nothing but is asks Dynasty Court early to prepare. 李靖虽然没采纳荀彧的计谋,还是将此事原原本本地上奏朝廷,目的无非就是请朝廷早作准备。 Because Mongol Empire had not acknowledged Great Xia Huaxia legitimate status, the two nations relations quite have been deadlocked, perhaps Li Jing was a little also worried that feared in the future must encroach upon, was actually blocked by Mongolia main forces. 因为蒙古帝国一直没承认大夏的华夏正统地位,两国关系一直比较僵,或许李靖也有点担心,怕日后真要借道,却被蒙古大军拦下。 This difficult problem nature only then reported Dynasty Court, can be solved. 这个难题自然只有上报朝廷,才能得到解决。 War of Tubo is Great Xia these days the biggest matter, regardless of the big minor matter, can first register Ouyang Shuo this. Ouyang Shuo looks at the Li Jing memorial, said one: „Also should search the Mongolia bottom.” 吐蕃之战是大夏这段时间最大之事,无论大小事,都会第一时间报到欧阳朔这。欧阳朔看罢李靖的奏疏,说了一句:“也该探一探蒙古的底了。” „Comes the person!” “来人！” „In!” “在！” „Asked Vast Display Monastery Minister Zhang Yi to come.” “请鸿胪寺卿张仪来一趟。” „!” “诺！” Leans slightly, Zhang Yi rushes to Imperial Study, good a ritual: „small official see Your Majesty!” 稍倾,张仪就赶到御书房,行了一礼:“微臣参见陛下！” „Bestows to sit!” “赐坐！” When Zhang Yi sits down, Ouyang Shuo said: „cherished minister, you send for going abroad on a diplomatic mission Karakorum.” 待张仪坐下,欧阳朔说道:“爱卿,你派人出使一趟哈拉和林。” „May I ask Your Majesty, can have mission?” “敢问陛下,可有使命？” Ouyang Shuo nodded, extends the index finger, „its one, reiterated with Genghis Khan, during Mongolia Western Expedition, Empire not to Mongolia wields soldiers. This commitment, has been effective.” 欧阳朔点了点头,伸出食指,“其一,跟成吉思汗重申一点,蒙古西征期间,帝国不会对蒙古用兵。此承诺,一直有效。” This words pledged, may be regarded as Deterrence. 此话既是承诺,也可看作是威慑。 Then, Mongolia and wars between Persia two big Empire, have hit the less than half year, has not decided the victory and defeat. According to Information that the Black Snake Guard Asia division transmits, Mongol Empire has overcome 12 place city, toward the west, is bigger the greatest resistance, is a little difficult to sustain. 说起来,蒙古跟波斯两大帝国之间的战争,已经打了小半年,至今还没分出胜负。根据黑蛇卫亚洲司传来的情报,蒙古帝国已经打下十二座城池,再往西,就越大莫大阻力,有点难以为继。 If as expected, Mongolia should withdraw troops in the present, finished first time Western Expedition. 不出意外的话,蒙古应该会于近日撤兵,结束第一次西征。 If Mongolia Western Expedition returns, but must face directly the Great Xia threat. Although passes six months, the Central Plains situation had the change of Turning the Heavens, Covering the Earth. 如果蒙古西征归来,可就必须要直面大夏威胁。虽然才过去半年时间,中原形势已经发生了翻天覆地的变化。 Great Xia Unified Central Plains, east from Liaojin Province, west to West Sea Province, constructs a complete northern defense line, deploys troops far more than greatness of million, is existence that Mongol Empire of present cannot contend with. 大夏一统中原,东起辽金行省,西至西海行省,构筑起一条完整的北方防线,陈兵何止百万之巨,是眼下之蒙古帝国所不能抗衡的存在。 Dealt with the relations with Mongolia, the regulations also already displayed the Ouyang Shuo table-top. 怎么处理跟蒙古的关系,实则也早已摆上欧阳朔案头。 Some Chancellor suggested that when Tubo war, as soon as finished, Dynasty Court the soldier sends Mongolia immediately, attacks to extinguish it. If a Dynasty Court fully war, this not too major difficulty, when can win. 有大臣就建议,待吐蕃战事一结束,朝廷立即兵发蒙古,攻而灭之。如果朝廷全力一战的话,这并没有太大困难,当能一战而胜之。 After the war and in October Western Xia natural disaster as well as Western Expedition, Mongolia main forces 1.8 million from the beginning, sharp decline to insufficient 1.3 million, area, although expanded, the strength is actually declining. 经过西夏之战、十月天灾以及西征,蒙古大军从一开始的一百八十万,锐减到不足一百三十万,疆域虽然扩大了,实力却在衰退。 And and Mongol Empire crosses the east and west, vast in territory, the head and tail cannot give dual attention, even if at the speed of Mongolia Cavalry, is unable to rush to the east support from the west in a short time. 兼且蒙古帝国横贯东西,幅员辽阔,首尾不能兼顾,就算以蒙古骑兵之速度,也无法在短时间内从西面赶到东面支援。 Such Mongolia, with what with the Great Xia fight? 这样的蒙古,拿什么跟大夏斗？ Overcomes Mongolia not to be difficult, what is difficult after is overcomes, how should govern? 打下蒙古不难,难的是打下之后,该如何治理？ Mongol Empire is typical nomadic Civilization, and vast in territory, wants to govern, must take advantage of Mongol, gives its certain autonomous region. 蒙古帝国是典型的游牧文明,兼且幅员辽阔,想要治理好,就必须依仗蒙古人,给予其一定的自治区。 historical, as long as can surrender King Dynasty of nomadic nation, only achieving makes it profess allegiance to present tribute. 历史上,但凡能降服游牧民族的王朝,也仅做到使其称臣纳贡。 In the game world, Great Xia is impossible to overthrow comes again, opens up the farming wantonly, stiffly the Mongolia reverse is agriculture Civilization. From the Empire demand, retains this kind of big pasture to be also necessary. 在游戏世界,大夏不可能推翻重来,大肆开垦耕地,硬生生将蒙古扭转为一个农耕文明。从帝国的需求来看,保留这样一个大牧场也非常有必要。 So also means that to Mongol Empire, is not good extremely to use strongly, if Great Xia raises weapon's edge, kills rivers of blood in Mongolia Prairie, which day is uncertain to make Prairie catch one's breath. 如此也就意味着,对蒙古帝国,不好太过用强,如果大夏真的掀起兵锋,在蒙古草原杀个血流成河,不定哪天才能让草原缓过气来。 Does not hit, Genghis Khan is not the Lord who is willing to lower the head. 可不打吧,成吉思汗又是个不愿低头的主。 This gives Ouyang Shuo to create very big confusion, for a while cannot think of the plan of any being satisfactory to both sides, including Zhang Liang these Adviser, has not thought of a safe plan. 这就给欧阳朔造成很大的困惑,一时想不到什么两全之策,包括张良这些谋士,也没想到一个稳妥的方案。 Therefore drags now. 故而才拖到现在。 Ouyang Shuo does not make to Genghis Khan on own initiative to the commitment that Mongolia dispatches troops, also there is a such consideration. 欧阳朔对成吉思汗做出不主动对蒙古出兵的承诺,也有这样的考量在。 „Its two, put forward a request with Genghis Khan, lets Mongol Empire during War of Tubo, opens Ögedei Khaganate to our army unconditionally, momentarily can encroach upon.” “其二,跟成吉思汗提个要求,让蒙古帝国在吐蕃之战期间,无条件向我军开放窝阔台汗国,随时可以借道。” This second point, was a little arrogant, the Zhang Yi look concentrates. 这第二点,就有点盛气凌人了,张仪眼神就是一凝。 As the envoy, how to convey the Empire request perfectly, can in enraging the situation of opposite party, according to the circumstance, made the refined language by the clever speech, gave comforting suitably, achieved the goal, tested the Diplomacy level. 作为使节,如何完美转达帝国要求,又能在激怒对方的情况下,随机应变,以巧言令辞,适当给予安抚,达成目的,就非常考验外交水平了。 Ouyang Shuo can say tactful, reason that not tactful, wants to probe Genghis Khan well, looks that this Prairie Overlord was prepares a muscle with Great Xia just, can clearly recognize the reality, to each other leeway of cushion and consultation. 欧阳朔本可以说的委婉点,之所以没有委婉,就是想好好试探一下成吉思汗,看一看这位草原霸主是准备一根筋跟大夏刚到底呢,还是能认清现实,给彼此一个缓冲、协商的余地。 It can be said that manner of Genghis Khan in this matter, some degree, had decided Great Xia will adopt what strategy to Mongol Empire in the future. 可以说,成吉思汗在此事上的态度,某种程度而言,决定了大夏未来对蒙古帝国将采取何种策略。 Season request that so, sends is higher, must be able to watch a person's every mood, sees clearly Genghis Khan this unparalleled fierce and ambitious the true thoughts, by the opposite party not hoodwinking. 正是如此,派去的时节要求就更高,必须能察言观色,洞察成吉思汗这位盖世枭雄的真正心思,不要被对方给蒙蔽了。 If Genghis Khan is very discontented, is only expression vagueness of , even is with smile on the face, envoy by its deceiving, but will bring huge Catastrophe to Empire. 如果成吉思汗已是非常不满,只是表达的很隐晦,甚至还面带笑容,使节被其糊弄的话,可是会给帝国带来巨大灾难。 Zhang Yi hear, not hesitant, immediately said: „Already so, small official personally runs.” 张仪听罢,没有犹豫,当即说道:“既如此,微臣就亲自跑一趟。” „That was laborious cherished minister.” Ouyang Shuo also this meaning, said with a smile: „cherished minister this goes, brings a gift to go to Genghis Khan, rich has not related, shows in a friendly way. Moreover, cherished minister may also taking the opportunity of going abroad on a diplomatic mission, observe Karakorum well. My meaning, can cherished minister understand?” “那就辛苦爱卿了。”欧阳朔也正是这个意思,笑道:“爱卿此去,给成吉思汗带点礼物去,丰厚一点也没关系,以示友好。另外,爱卿也可借着出使的机会,好好观察一下哈拉和林。朕的意思,爱卿可明白？” „small official understands!” “微臣明白！” Zhang Yi is intelligent, naturally understands everything right off. 张仪何等聪明,自然是一点就透。 ............ ………… Great Xia has not established diplomatic relations with Mongol Empire, naturally has not cleared Transmission Array. 大夏跟蒙古帝国并未建交,自然也没有开通传送阵。 Zhang Yi this time goes abroad on a diplomatic mission, must transmit to Handan City first, then passes through Handan, is sent out the guard by Northern Border Army, goes north, the smooth words, at least also want the 5~6 day to be able arrive Karakorum. 张仪此番出使,要先传送至邯郸城,再经邯郸,由北疆军派出护卫,一路北上,顺利的话,至少也要五六天才能抵达哈拉和林。 Tubo battlefield not truce, even slaughters frigidly. 在此期间,吐蕃战场并未停战,甚至厮杀得更加惨烈。 Great Xia four groups of main forces after are taking over a city respectively, finally had a stable advanced base, more and more officers adapted to the altitude sickness, can normal War Operations. 大夏四路大军在各自攻下一城之后,终于有了一个稳固的前进基地,越来越多的将士适应了高原反应,可以正常作战。 So, have given four groups of main forces Commander in a big way to self-confident with courage. 如此,就给了四路大军统帅以更大的自信跟勇气。 Four groups of main forces first round athletics, the Qin Army scenery does not have two, the Tang Army collective is shamed, the huge contrast, even more stimulated each other competition, competes mutually, wants to fight over seize second, and even third city. 四路大军第一轮竞技,秦军风光无二,唐军集体蒙羞,巨大的反差,越发刺激了彼此的竞争,互相较劲,要争着拿下第二座,乃至第三座城池。 Especially Tang Army, this time respectively leads one by Cheng Yaojin with Yuchi Jingde, simultaneously attacks two cities, before takes snow the shame, recaptures the glory of losing. 尤其是唐军,此番由程咬金跟尉迟敬德各率一部,同时攻打两城,就是要一雪前耻,夺回失去的荣耀。 Tang Army goes all out, other three groups of naturally also not lax principles. 唐军拼命,其他三路自然也无松懈之理。 In such a case, the entire battlefield presents war arrives in all directions, the lively picture that the beacon-fire rises from all directions, every time, Great Xia Army is not during the march, in siege. 在这样一种情况下,整个战场呈现出一副八方来战,烽火四起的热闹景象,每时每刻,大夏军不是在行军途中,就是在攻城。 So intense War, presented a bigger challenge to the logistics safeguard. 如此激烈的大战,也对后勤保障提出了更大的挑战。 If no Zeng Guofan to direct all parties with Du Ruhui personally, provisions feared that must unable to continue. Even if so, crazy of front, makes two Chancellor complain constantly. 如果不是有曾国藩跟杜如晦亲自督导各方,粮草怕是就要无以为继了。就算如此,前线的疯狂,也让两位大臣叫苦不迭。 But again laborious, they do not dare to have the slight complaint. 但就算再辛苦,他们也不敢有丝毫抱怨。 The front officers make an effort, abandon a life war, is struggling taking the lead, how many Emperor-King long-awaited scenes this is, who dares at this time, to be a drag on main forces? 前线将士用力,舍命一战,争着打头阵,这是多少帝王梦寐以求的场面啊,谁敢在这种时候,拖了大军的后腿？ Must such do, Your Majesty reprimanding is small, even possibly falls the crime. 真要那样做了,陛下斥责是小,甚至可能降罪。 Two Chancellor are helpless, can only layer upon layer conduct the pressure, from them, transmits Viceroy with Collective Army Commander Rank 1, one by one downward conducts again, to the transporting grain team of lowest level. 两位大臣无奈,只能将压力层层传导,由他们二人,传递到总督跟集团军统领一级,再一一往下传导,一直到最底层的运粮队。 This, may count the million service painstakingly with Sergeant. 这一下,可苦了数百万的劳役跟军士。 From the upper air bird's eye view, the entire Great Xia west, weaves by the innumerable major roads on the vein, obvious cannot look at the end transporting grain car(riage) everywhere, continuous, goes to the Tubo gathering. 从高空俯瞰,整个大夏的西部,由无数官道织就的脉络上,到处可见一眼望不到尽头的运粮车,络绎不绝,向吐蕃汇聚而去。 That scene, the condition, feared is really the millenniums is rare. 那个场面,着实状况,怕是千年都难得一见。 Great Xia Army goes all out, King Ashoka may not be convinced. In knowing for one week, after frontier falls to the enemy one after another four city, supercilious King Ashoka not hesitant, 500,000 Imperial Army that will prepare directly sends Tubo. 大夏军拼命,阿育王可也不服气呢。在得知一周之内,边境接连沦陷四座城池之后,心高气傲的阿育王没有犹豫,直接将预备的五十万禁军派进吐蕃。 Meanwhile, just like Great Xia, King Ashoka also issued the national mobilization order, the collection has counted the million service, was main forces ships provisions, delivered to the Tubo boundary. 于此同时,跟大夏一样,阿育王也下达了全国动员令,征集数百万劳役,为大军运送粮草,送到吐蕃地界。 Two big King Dynasty both in the mao full strength, everyone refuse to accept anyone. 两大王朝都在卯足力气,谁也不服谁。 In this time, the Ashoka King Dynasty crazy act, finally let with locating Tianzhu (India) Peacock King Dynasty could not sit still with Gupta King Dynasty, started the secret meeting. 就在此时,阿育王朝的疯狂行径,终于让同处天竺的孔雀王朝跟笈多王朝坐不住了,开始秘密会面。
