Chapter 2 National Complaint

There are two major sects of the Tianfang Cult, one is the orthodox sect, which occupies the majority of the Tianfang Cult population, and the other is the party sect. Because they are often oppressed by orthodox sects, their behavior is often more radical. When major regimes use orthodox sects as legal doctrines, the lower class often uses this sect to uprising, so they are often at a disadvantage but can achieve a trend of confrontation with orthodox sects in certain historical stages.

Because the radicals of the Tianfang Cult are often oppressed, their doctrine allows believers to conceal their faith and dress up as orthodox when they encounter irresistible pressure. This is the method they take to preserve themselves. Therefore, the actual number of radicals in the Tianfang Cult is much more than usually believed, and almost spread throughout the Tianfang world. In the case where the radicals gain advantages, these hidden believers will reveal their true beliefs and come from all directions!

In the past few years, with the help of Satuk, the radicals entered the vast and deserted desert area of ​​the northern part of the Satuk Dynasty. With the help of Satuk's authority to implement its doctrine in this place, countless Turkic tribes, Uighur tribes and Huoxun tribes were included in this belief system to form their combat power. Satuk used the religious power of the Tianfang Cult to strengthen its control over the tribes. These things all happened in remote areas that were very wasteland to Satuk, so Bukhara, who was busy making money from the opening of the Silk Road, failed to pay enough attention in time.

In the second year of Tiance of the Tang Dynasty, the *** from remote places spread out with lightning speed. Within half a month, it swept across the entire Baishuicheng area, followed by the capture of Pingge, and completely opened the pathway from the Talas region to the heart of the Saman Dynasty.

With the Ista tribe, which was trained by Satuk as the core, the tens of thousands of desert tribes that had been washed away as the main force, and the uprising believers who came from all directions as the followers, a unit of more than 100,000 people quickly crossed the Yaosha River and continued to go south, cutting off the road between Samarkand and Ju Zhanti.

Along the way, countless radicals who concealed their faith took off their disguised cloaks and joined the counterattack they had been waiting for for a long time.

The main path of the Silk Road in the territory of the Saman Dynasty from west to east is: Bukhara-Samarkand-Ju Zhanti-Si-Kuba.

The main supporters of this uprising were the Pan-Turkish tribes on the frontier and the poor in the hinterland. Although the uprising was initiated in the name of radicals, they also persuaded the lower-class people of the orthodox faction to join their ranks, and the target of their hatred was all the orthodox people and wealthy businessmen!

After the rebel army crossed the medicine and killed the river, the whole of Samarkand was panicked. After hearing about the tragic situation of the wealthy merchants in Pingge, although Bukhara had sent large troops to Samarkand, all the wealthy merchants who had the conditions to flee. Those with close ties with the senior leaders of the Saman Dynasty retreated westward to Bukhara, but another merchant was embarked on another road under this terrible situation.

This business branch was the descendant of the descendants of the Anxi Tang Army's Corporate Mansion. The remaining branches of the "Aqimu" family, including the "Murgabu family", "Lu Shang family", "Kuduk family", "Shartuz family", etc. These descendants of the Corporate Mansion who have been localized, began to develop centripetal force on the Tang Dynasty after the Tang army became more powerful. On some occasions, they regained the surnames such as Mu, Lu, Du, and Sha who had forgotten countless generations. Since the Tang army also needed a group of pro-Tang people to cooperate within Saman, Guo Luo took good care of these descendants of the Corporate Mansion and gave some business priority, allowing these already powerful Tang families to grow more rapidly.

This time, the tribe leader of the four major families of Mu, Lu, Du and Sha couldn't help but admire the foresight of the "Aqimu" family who had moved east to Tiance. After they discussed, they felt that the radical rebels were coming in a fierce manner, and the troops sent by Bukhara might not be able to resist, so they decided to separate out some family members, go southwest to Nasebo, follow along the Uhu River (i.e. the Amu River) through Tawei City, walk Jiesu (now Dushanbe, the capital of Tajikistan), and go to Ningyuan. During the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, Tawei City was the residence of the Governor's Office of Gumo Prefecture, Jiesu was the residence of the Governor's Office of Tianma, and Jiesu was the residence of the Governor's Office of Zhibazhou. When they arrived at the Governor's Office, they walked on the Pamir Mountain Road. They could go to the southeast to enter Tianzhu and to the northeast to Ningyuan. This is another main road of the Silk Road in Central Asia. The area they passed through was not completely under the control of Saman.

At this time, the people of Samarkand were panicked, and at this time they were most likely to develop herd mentality. Although many merchants were not descendants of the Corporate House, they followed the four major families and walked eastward. After several months of trekking, this Shangliu arrived at Jiesu (Dushanbe), which was a large city and still belonged to the territory of Saman, but the border guards had considerable autonomy. After the Shangliu arrived here, they were intercepted by local officials. The four major families complained secretly and had to stop in Jiesu City and hurriedly sent their children to Ningyuan to report the news.

However, it was late autumn when the children arrived in Ningyuan, and the mountains were covered with heavy snow. Even if Guo Luo could send support, it would be next spring. At this time, due to Guo Luo's infiltration, some tribes in the Jumi area had been ordered on both sides - that is, they also admitted that they belonged to Saman and Tsengce. Ningyuan had a great influence on these tribes. Even in Jiesu, Guo Luo sent envoys to stay in Jiesu City, so the officials in Jiesu City did not dare to make things too difficult for these four major families. Therefore, the four major families lived in Jiesu and did some business with the local area to make a living.

People in troubled times are like a wave in the river, often unable to control their own destiny. The four major families call the wind and rain in Samarkand, but at this juncture, their existence is as small as an insignificant wave to the Tiance Army.

Although the rebel army of the radical sect of the Tianfang Sect did not attack Xiliu east, Ningyuan was still shocked! Tang Renxiao was shocked and suggested that he rescue Xiliu immediately, as the whole alliance was justified.

Guo Luo said: "Although Xihu is afraid of the rebels now, we are even more afraid that we will take the opportunity to attack them. Therefore, their defense against the east may not be weaker than that of the west. Now that we can still maintain our friendship with Bukhara, we will attract the suspicion of the Samans."

Tang Renxiao asked, "What should I do?"

Guo Luo said, "Don't move!" But he sent two battalions of troops across the Pamir Mountains to patrol the border. The tribes in this area saw the civil strife of Saman and then rushed to the Tiance Army. At this point, the vast areas starting from Geluo Ridge in the east, to Jumi in the west, to Jieluo City in the south, to Yihei in the north, to 1,500 miles east, and to 2,500 miles north, have actually been included in the Governor of Ningyuan. This area is full of glaciers and mountains. Although it is the China region entering West Asia and the South Asia Strategic Military Region, most of them are barren lands. The strengthening of control over the Jumi area has not yet been made public, and the layout in the Jiantuo area has not yet been effective. Therefore, although Guo Luo's business intentions are deep, it reflects that it is not good in its rewards to Liangzhou.

In the late summer of the second year of Tiance, Liangzhou was in a mixed atmosphere. The happy thing was that the harvest and the common year expected three months ago were indeed as expected. Ganzhou, Gaochang and Liangzhou were all full of rice and wheat, and the water and grass in the whole Hexi were lush, and the cattle and sheep were fat, and there were a prosperous scene. However, Anxi reported wars frequently and there were many worries in the war reports. Satuk went east to attack Beiting within half a year, but supported the Tianfang Cult rebel army to occupy Baishui City and Pingge City, and once again became the overlord who was shaking the Western Regions.

While Satuk was expanding, there was no movement in the western front of the Tang army. Yang Yi defended his troops and tried his best, but the attack was insufficient. Guo Luo held heavy troops but did not make any visible achievements. There was a stream of undercurrents in Liangzhou preparing to impeach the governor of Ningyuan. At this moment, Guo Fen's belly bulged for the third time! Is the little life in his belly a boy or a girl?

In the secret room of Liangzhou, Cao Yuanzhong's brows were also locked.

Kang Long, one of the five people in the secret room, said: "This time the matter is afraid of being mysterious. Unexpectedly, the marshal's favor for Guo has not yet declined. As the saying goes, there is one or two, there are two or three. Guo has given birth to two daughters in a row. If this baby is not the case, will it still be the daughter?"

Everyone in the room believed that Guo Fen's chances of having three girls in a row were very low.

Murong Teng said: "Although the princess was born as the eldest son, the Guo family had the foundation for the Tiance Army. The Guo family and the Marshal had a bond and were also a big family. If the one born in this baby was actually a boy, I'm afraid..."

All five people in the house knew that his terrible underneath must mean "I may not be able to make Fu'an's son the legitimate son"!

The Shazhou Yi Group has gained momentum recently, and in addition to Zhang Mai's intentional favor, it is also related to the giving birth to a boy for Fu'an. But if Guo Fen also adds a male to Zhang Mai, the Shazhou Yi Group's advantages will probably be lost more than half of them! This is something that everyone in the house cannot tolerate!

"So, what do you think you should do?" Cao Yuanzhong said.

"We must support the eldest son as the prince!" Kang Xing said: "We must do this, otherwise, once the son of Guo becomes the prince, we are afraid that the general situation will be gone!"

Although the five people in the house were called Shazhou, they were actually just a faction of Shazhou. There was still Zhang Yi's faction in Shazhou. Cao Yuanzhong overwhelmed Zhang Yi by the moment of Zhang Mai's eldest son and became the representative of Shazhou. He then won over the entire Hexi faction. However, if the Guo family gave birth to a son and made him the legitimate son, other forces in Hexi might turn. At that time, Cao Yuanzhong and others could control only half of the old Shazhou faction left. The rise and fall of the power can be said to be one day, and it is indeed "the general trend is gone"!

"But it's very difficult." Kang Long said: "At the time when the marshal welcomed the princess, although it was not a concubine, even a fair wife had different degrees of difference! Now that our Tiance Army is becoming more and more prestige, we have been looking at the Central Plains and then dominating the Western Regions. It's only a matter of time before the marshal's reign as emperor. On the day of the emperor, Guo must be the queen and the prince must be the imperial concubine. However, when it comes to the legitimate and illegitimate, the crown prince must be the son of Guo! The Guo family is deeply rooted in the Tiance Army, and Guo has kindness with the marshal. Guo himself is extremely strong and is a person who dares to wield a sword and stalker and kills the enemy. If the marshal deposes the legitimate and illegitimate, this...is very difficult."

Zhang Mai's two wives have different personalities. Fu An is a peaceful and religious person. Although he has given birth to a son, he still maintains a life-threatening personality. Guo Fen is a general and tiger girl. During the several foundation-breaking wars in the Tang army, he either fought desperately on the front line or went deep into the people. Zhang Mai could not deprive her of the great influence among the military and civilians. Even the generals in the army were very in awe of her. Cao Yuanzhong did not dare to speak loudly in front of Guo Fen when his popularity was at its peak. If Guo Fen also gave birth to a boy, if others wanted to fight for the throne, even if Zhang Mai himself was interested, he would be very sad to pass Guo Fen's level.

At this time, everyone looked at the last person in the room - Murong Guiying.

In the past year, due to excessive thoughts, Murong Guiying's body began to have problems. At this time, she shrank on the bench and seemed a little breathing because the air in the secret room was not good, but his words were still enough to make everyone dare not miss a word: "A man makes achievements, and a woman relies on her family. The Guo family can gain the awe of all the soldiers and civilians not because of her own strength, but because of the Guo family's mountain! The mountains are there, she is as stable as the Taiyue, but once the mountains are shaken, she will become in danger..."

Murong Teng said: "Dad said... Guo Luo?"

Murong Guiying nodded slightly: "Guo Luo defended the western border and had no record for a long time. Especially when it comes to let Satuk be a big shot, even Yang Yi has complained about him, but this is our opportunity. If the status of Ningyuan governor can be shaken, then the Guo family in Liangzhou will also be shaken. After a major change begins, it is hard to say whether Guo's child can be preserved. Even if he gives birth to a son, we still have the power to turn the world back!"

Kang Long said: "But in addition to being close to the uncle of Guo Luo and the marshal, they also have brotherhood. Besides, the status of the Guo family in our Tiance Tang army is definitely not easy to violate. If anyone comes forward to impeach the Guo family, then... it means that they are unable to get along with all the Lingxi factions of the Tiance Army. Governor Yang Yi has a relationship with us, but their relationship with the Guo family is deeper. Although he is dissatisfied with Guo Luo at present, he will never agree with us impeachment of the Guo family!"

"Of course we can't do it." Murong Guiying said: "To do this, you must borrow a knife."

"Knife? Which knife?"

"The National People's Commentary Conference." Murong Guiying said: "Do not blame everyone for the crime - that is the best knife."

The so-called National People's Political Consultative Conference is an unprecedented reform measure that the Tang army has just begun to implement this year. It takes the name of "national people" in the Western Zhou Dynasty, and selects famous representatives from all states, ethnic groups, and religions, gathers at the center to discuss the government affairs, picks up officials, and sets up correction stations everywhere. The center has a state correction station, the prefecture has a state correction station, and the county has a county correction station. Those who can enter the correction station are called correction censors. The people are just talking, so they are called corrections. According to the newly established law, anyone who enters the correction station can be heard and discussed, and those who speak are not guilty. In May this year, all the first batch of 52 national correction stations have entered Liangzhou and become representatives of the Tiance Army in the center. This is also an important measure for the Tiance Army to strengthen its local direction and focus.

At the same time, the letter about Guo Bian entering Jiantuoluo also arrived in Liangzhou. Zhang Mai was overjoyed after receiving the letter. Although Guo Luo did not express all his plans, Zhang Mai immediately understood the strategic points he occupied and resented to Guo Fen: "Your brother, what a ***!"

Guo Fen said in surprise: "What is ***?"

Zhang Mai laughed and said, "If he had told me these things, I wouldn't have to worry. If he hadn't been Guo Luo, with his performance in the past year, even if I didn't remove him from his post, I would have to send someone to question him."

Guo Fen smiled slightly and said, "Ningyuan, Liangzhou, is thousands of miles apart. If he is a big or small thing, he will tell you about any or not. Why do he, the governor of Ningyuan, do? He also knows that you trust him enough, so he dares to make such a plan."

Zhang Mai smiled and said, "It's reasonable, it's reasonable! Now the new recruits have become, the Central Plains are a little stable, the food and grass are enough, and Aluo has already set up a situation in the west. Everything is ready! After the matter of staying in the east is arranged, I can be assured to lead the troops west."

At this moment, Ma Xiaochun hurried in and whispered a few words in Zhang Mai's ear. Zhang Mai frowned when he heard this, and Guo Fen also frowned and said, "What are you doing? Even I can't listen to anything?"
