"You must tell the Khan to move all those troublemakers out of the royal city. Don't let them stay in the city. Some of them might ruin our plans. Also, have the princesses and other young ladies leave the royal city as well to avoid a lot of trouble."
General Kang Ying added a few more words. Li You's reputation in Chang'an City was not very good. Although there were not many beauties in the Turkic country, if he took a fancy to one of them, it would be difficult for you to marry him. So in order to avoid such a situation, it would be better to let these ladies leave to avoid trouble in the future.
After the people below left with the letter, General Kang Ying's heart was still pounding. He didn't know how it turned out like this, but he had a bad feeling. Li You was a troublemaker king, and there were many brave men in the royal city. If the two sides really clashed with each other, no one knew what the result would be.
"Reporting to the General, the Tang Army liaison officer has arrived."
He hadn't figured these things out yet, and was considering whether to write two more letters to supplement them, trying to avoid any major problems. Unexpectedly, the guards at the door came in. When did the Tang army have a liaison officer?
Although the Allied Forces and the Tang Army often had contacts, they had never heard of such a position. Now that such a position exists, they would like to hear what it is all about.
"You're welcome."
General Kang Ying tidied up his armor, and then asked someone to call other important personnel. After all, this was the coalition camp, not his own camp. If anything happened, everyone had to deal with it themselves, and he would not let them carry it.
The person who came was a young general in the Tang army, who had never appeared before.
The meaning is very simple, that is, Li You is in their territory, so in order to maintain smooth communication, the Tang army will set up several contact points in the wilderness. Of course, the scale and personnel of the contact points will be discussed with this side.
When the young general brought this up, people from many countries nodded in agreement. They thought it was nothing and that they just wanted to establish better liaisons.
But General Kang Ying and the Prime Minister of Loulan both frowned. On the surface, these were just a few contact points, but don't we know what you people of the Tang Dynasty are thinking? How did the people of Gaochang fall into your trap step by step? Wasn't it because of these small things that started it all?
But they didn't dare to refuse directly now. The people of the Tang Dynasty were looking for trouble everywhere. If you refuse now, there might be a mutiny.
"I wonder how many communication stations your Highness intends to set up, and what the overall scale will be?"
General Kang Ying hesitated for a moment and decided that it would be better to ask clearly. If the number is small and the scale is not very large, we'd better agree to it. After all, this is just a temporary liaison station. According to what you said just now, when King Qi Li You leaves the northwest, these liaison stations should also be withdrawn at the same time. Their task is to keep in touch with King Qi Li You. Now that the protagonist is gone, do you still want to stick with you?
"In reply to the General, according to the orders of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, at most four liaison stations will be set up, with one station every two hundred miles. The specific location is uncertain, depending on where His Royal Highness the Prince is."
The young general said in a serious tone that these questions were prepared earlier, so when these people asked, they already had a plan in mind.
Hearing that there were only four contact stations, these people breathed a sigh of relief. If they were spread throughout the entire northwest region, they probably wouldn't be willing. These contact stations of yours are like your spy agencies, like bugs crawling on us. Now that there are only four, it doesn't matter.
The number of people is not large, with ten people and twenty horses at each liaison station. As for the location, we can even ask General Kang Ying's people to help choose it. We are only responsible for daily operations, which will also dispel their concerns to the greatest extent.
"Please go back and give us some time. After we have finished discussing this, we will reply to you as quickly as possible."
In General Kang Ying's heart, he had actually already agreed to this suggestion, but if he agreed to it on the spot, it would seem that this matter was too easy, and Li Xiang would definitely have other ideas, so he let the young general go back first, and they planned to delay for a day.
The young general thanked him on the spot and then went back with his men.
General Kang Ying only left the prime minister of Loulan, and let the others do what they should do. There is no point in you guys staying here. The coalition has been formed for such a long time, and you guys haven't come up with any ideas. It's as if you are here to play. I really don't know how much your king values you.
At the same time, Xueyantuo Khan was invited. This guy had nothing to do now except drinking. He used to be able to take his men to hunt in the wilderness of the northwest, but now he can't even get out of the gate of the military camp. Including the war horses under his command, all of them are watched by special people, and he is not given any chance to leave.
"Why drink so much in broad daylight? Too much is harmful to your health."
Looking at the Xueyantuo Khan in front of him, General Kang Ying felt a trace of pity, but soon this trace of pity disappeared. Although you were a great hero in the past, you brought disaster to us. If you didn't run to our side, how could the Tang army catch up with you?
"My body is no longer useful, and my territory has been lost. Yesterday, some people came from my territory. I heard that the Tang Dynasty has implemented the county system here. Do you know what kind of system this is? Just like the land within the Tang Dynasty, it is all divided into small plots of land, and their officials are governing locally. They are trying to turn my territory into the territory of the Tang Dynasty."
The Xueyantuo Khan smelled of alcohol when he spoke, but his words shocked the other two. It had only been a short time since the Tang army occupied the Xueyantuo land, and they had already started to implement the county system?
The last time we heard the news, the Tang people weren't that active on the grasslands yet; they'd just begun dividing the area. Now, only a few months have passed, and they've already started moving. With their speed, we can't catch up even on horseback...
