Sunset gold.

The Zhaowu Palace in Yicheng City under the sunset is covered with a layer of golden brilliance.

In the palace.

The ethereal sound of the flowing water piano sounds, adding a bit of elegance to this autumn color. Yin Mingyue sat elegantly in a gazebo, her hands pressed on a plain piano, plucking the strings gently, and strings of beautiful notes came out under her skillful hands.

On one side, Yang Tong was lying on a wooden couch with his hands behind his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

Yin Mingyue plucked the strings while looking at the leisurely Yang Tong, she felt that Yang Dong seemed to be waiting for someone! This man must be very important, otherwise he wouldn't have stayed here for so long.

"Your Highness, there is a Jieli envoy asking to see you." Luo Shixin rushed over and said to Yang Tong.

"The messenger of Jieli?" Yang Tong seemed to have expected it, and nodded with a smile: "Let him go to the side hall." By the way, let people call Shubao and Keming as well. ”

"Whoa!" Luo Shixin quickly retreated.

"Your Highness, this is the person you are waiting for...... Yin Mingyue asked in a low voice, Yang Tong didn't say anything about women are not allowed to interfere in politics, even if she is a military general of the Great Sui, she also has the qualifications to ask politics.

"Possibly!" Yang Tong smiled.

When Yang Tong arrived at the side hall, Qin Qiong and Du Ruhui had already arrived, and after a while, Luo Shixin, who had a sinister face, brought in a Confucian scholar full of wisdom.

Dai Jieli Khan's envoy was a Confucian student of the Han family, that is, the traitor everyone hated the most, no wonder Luo Shixin was so unhappy.

"Zhao Deyan, see His Royal Highness King Qin." Zhao Deyan, as the envoy of Jieli Khan, performed well, neither humble nor arrogant, and had a calm bearing.

"Good work, please take a seat!" Yang Tong gestured with his hand

Yang Tong's performance made Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin, Yin Mingyue, and Du Ruyan stunned, you must know that Yang Tong hates traitors the most.

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Zhao Deyan looked slightly excited.

"Mr. Zhao is our person, he is Zhao Yan, code name 007!" Yang Tong couldn't help but smile.

Zhao Deyan saw Yang Tong introduced in public, and knew that these four people were Yang Tong's trusted people, so he saluted and said: "I have seen General Qin, General Luo, ......."

Everyone hurriedly returned the salute!

Du Ruhan smiled: "Mr. Zhao's feat, Du admires." ”

"Exactly!" Yang Tong's expression was solemn, and he said seriously: "If it weren't for Mr. Zhao, we wouldn't have known that the Western Turks had become so powerful without our knowledge, and we wouldn't have known that the Tongye Hu Khan was going to join forces with Jieli Khan to enter the Great Sui, let alone the previous big victory!" The great merit of this battle is led by Mr. Zhao. ”

"Mr. Zhao's merits will definitely be revealed to the world one day, and I, Yang Tong, will never let the heroes of the Great Sui be unknown."

"Thank you, Your Highness, for sure." Zhao Deyan was very excited.

After the greetings, Yang Tong asked, "I don't know why Mr. came this time?" ”

"The minister has persuaded Jieli Khan to submit to my Great Sui and surrender to the courtiers, and offer cattle and sheep, war horses and women, and now Zhangye, Dunhuang, Shanshan and other counties are lacking in population, just divide these women into two places to help reproduction, and at the same time can cut off the development of the Turkic population!" Zhao Deyan smiled.

"Is that okay?" Qin Qiong looked at Zhao Deyan in surprise, as far as he knew, that Jieli Khan was a Pixiu who could only enter but not leave.

"The Turks were defeated again and again, and hundreds of thousands of young men died in their advance, and the population of Jieli Khan near Dujin Mountain was only about four or five hundred thousand, plus other tribes loyal to him, there were less than 800,000 people, and half of them were women, and his warriors were less than 60,000, and even if he tried his best to develop the army, it was only 100,000 at most. He is now facing the attack of Xue Yantuo and Ashina Sima, and his life is quite sad! But what he is most afraid of now is my Great Sui, if my army goes north, he will be finished. As long as His Highness agrees not to send troops, I think he will agree to any conditions. ”

"How much should we want, sir?" Yang Tong thought for a while.

"There are 100,000 young women, 10,000 sheep, relatively few cattle, 500,000, and 500,000 fine horses. Moreover, Jinshan has a lot of gold and jade since ancient times, and the Turks have always let people mine it, so His Royal Highness might as well ask him for 100,000 catties of gold and 5,000 catties of high-quality jade. ”

According to the actual situation of Jieli Khan, Zhao Deyan sold Jieli Khan without blinking an eye.

"Hiss~" Luo Shixin's eyes widened, and he said incredulously: "This is too much, right?" Tsk tsk, gold and jade are counted in catties? ”

"Not much at all." Zhao Deyan smiled and said: "He has been in charge of government affairs for Jieli Khan for many years, he can afford these things, and he can thrive, but if he fights a civil war for three or five years, I am afraid that he can only survive by relying on my Great Sui." ”

Looking at Zhao Deyan with a calm face, Luo Shixin felt that his bones were chilling, even as an enemy, he couldn't help but sympathize with Jieli Khan at this moment.

If this continues, the rise of the Turks is simply a joke, thinking that Jieli Khan was knocked out by Zhao Deyan, and he is grateful to Dade, not only Luo Shixin, but also Yang Dong, Qin Qiong, Du Ruhui, and Yin Mingyue all feel that Jieli Khan is too pitiful.

Luo Shixin looked at Zhao Deyan's calm smiling face, and actually had the urge to slap this person hard.

"Are you sure?" Yang Tong asked.

"Ninety percent certainty of lowly duties!" Zhao Deyan looked confident, and after a while, he said: "I heard that my Great Sui captured some people in the war?" ”

"There are indeed more than 16,000 people!" Qin Qiong said Muran.

This man is really bad.

Even if he didn't like Jieli Khan anymore, Qin Qiong also had the idea of venting his anger for Jieli Khan.

"According to the custom of the Turks, when the Khan was killed, his corpse was 500,000 sheep, 300,000 for the Great Chieftain, 200,000 for the Chieftain, 200,000 for the Little Khan, ten for ordinary soldiers, and twice as many as the living! Now Jieli Khan has a serious shortage of soldiers, and even if he recruits new soldiers, he will not be able to train well for a while, and he is afraid that he will not be able to withstand the attack of the two major enemies...... It is recommended that His Highness sell these soldiers to him twice. ”

"Okay, it's up to you to do it!" Yang Tong took a deep breath and nodded.

If this happens, the harvest of this battle is too rich.

"The humble post retired first." Zhao Deyan bowed slightly.

"Be careful! Don't expose yourself, it's okay to ask for less. Yang Tong said with concern, this 007 and the God of Wealth must not have an accident.

"Thank you Your Highness for your care, nothing will happen to you." Zhao Deyan said confidently.

Yang Tong thought for a moment and said to Du Ruhui: "Tell Su Dingfang to blackmail the new Western Turkic Khan, they have been exploiting the Western Regions for so many years, and they must be rich!" Just doubled the number reported by Zhao Deyan. If they don't give it, our army of the Great Sui will make them destitute, and the army will be overwhelmed. ”

"Whoa!" Du Ruhui responded with a wry smile, the king of the Central Plains who said that the robbery was so righteous and awe-inspiring, not to mention the end, I am afraid it is unprecedented. However, I also have a feeling that it is better to raise than to rob.

"Your Highness, do you think that Jieli Khan will agree?"

Back in the apse, Yin Mingyue still couldn't believe it, although she didn't know much about the situation of the East/Turks, but she knew that the East/Turks had been robbed by Yang Tong, every year, every month, and they were always defeated, and their current life was by no means easy.

"Yes!" Yang Tong thought for a while and said: "Jieli Khan is full of ambition, and at the same time he is a person who does not die without the heart of the Yellow River, as long as he can keep the Great Khan, no matter how difficult it is, he will not give up." ”

"What about Your Highness?" The Yin Ming Moon God sent a ghost envoy to ask.

"Me? Didn't think about it. Yang Tong's eyes were deep, like two pools of deep and secluded lake, unfathomable.

He didn't think about failure, he didn't dare to think about it.

Yin Mingyue will be wrong, and when she sees the charm of Yang Tong's 'self-confidence', she is thrilled.

Woman, once you get caught up in emotion! I always think about my sweetheart in a good direction.

。。。。。。。。。

In the anticipation of Jieli Khan, Zhao Deyan finally came back, but when he saw the latter's iron blue face, Jieli Khan's heart was cold.

"How is Mr. Zhao's trip?" Jieli Khan's voice trembled a little.

Zhao Deyan glanced at Jieli Khan, sighed and said, "Great Khan, I have disappointed you in my humble position!" ”

Jieli Khan stood up, his eyes flashing with ferocity: "Could it be that Yang Dong has to destroy me?" ”

"Not really!"

"Oh?" Jieli Khan's heart hung him up and down, and it was very uncomfortable.

Zhao Deyan shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Yang Tong's requirements are very great, almost like destroying my Turks. ”

Jieli Khan's heart hung again: "What does he want?" ”

"Two hundred thousand young women, a million cattle, twenty million sheep, and a million horses. 200,000 catties of gold and 15,000 catties of high-quality jade. Zhao Deyan, who had doubled each, said bitterly.

"This ......" Jieli Khan was dumbfounded, and sat down on the ground with a dull expression, "So much? ”

"yes!" Zhao Deyan sighed helplessly, and for a while, the two of them didn't speak.

After a long time, Jieli Khan's eyes were red, and he said with a hideous expression: "Mr. Zhao, you must help me, only you can help me here." ”

Zhao Deyan said bitterly: "Yang Tong is different from the previous kings of the Central Plains, he believes in the same principle as our grassland, that is, the strong are respected. is not a reasonable person, and it took a lot of effort to get such a result. ”

Jieli Khan's heart was full of grief, and his lips trembled: "Sir is resourceful, since I ascended the throne, you have let me go through one difficulty after another, and I believe that this time it will be okay." ”

"If you don't fight with Ashina Simo!" Zhao Deyan said: "Anassimo has an unstable foothold, if we defeat it quickly, those wall grasses will not dare to break away from the control of the Great Khan. ”

Jieli Khan said heavily: "Then according to Mr. Wang's opinion, how should we fight?" ”

"The first strike is strong, and then the first strike suffers. In my opinion, as long as we attack Ashnasimo and kill him, then the Great Khan will be able to absorb his subordinates and get tens of thousands of elites, and we can also let other tribes know how serious the fate of opposing the Great Khan is. "Zhao Deyan is a literati, but he is extremely angry.

Jieli Khan was thrilled, "Sir, do you think we have a chance of winning?" ”

"At least fifty percent."

"Fifty percent? Not a lot! Jieli Khan stood up and was about to go out to give an order, when he suddenly smiled bitterly: "We seem to have forgotten about the Sui Dynasty!" Ashina Simo is Yang Tong's dog, how can Yang Tong sit idly by? We can't defeat the Sui Dynasty at all. ”

Zhao Deyan was stunned for a moment and stopped talking.

Jieli Khan lowered his head and pondered for a moment and said: "Our soldiers dare not fight, and we can't recruit more soldiers in a hurry, if we fight with the Sui Dynasty, we will definitely die." And winter is coming, everyone has to prepare for winter, and they don't want to fight. Let's talk to Yang Tong! It's just that these animals are fate, and if we give him so much, I'm afraid we will all starve to death this winter. ”

Zhao Deyan stood up, bowed down and said, "In this case, let's go again." ”

"Thank you, sir."

"It's just that the Great Khan has given a bottom limit to his humble position, so he can negotiate with Yang Tong." Zhao Deyan said solemnly: "The Great Khan has to think about it, if it is too outrageous, I am afraid that if he breaks his leg in a humble position, the other party will not agree, and even annoy Yang Tong!" If he dies, he is afraid that he will come to attack again in winter. ”

"This ......" Jieli Khan couldn't help but hesitate, he couldn't give the amount Zhao Deyan said, he couldn't give it at all, and after thinking about it for a long time, he gritted his teeth and said: "300,000 women can be given to him, and the others will be reduced by half." ”

Zhao Deyan was stunned, and looked at Jieli Khan with some surprise, he actually gave it all, Jieli Khan's performance at this time was a little unexpected, just giving it out like this, this year's life will definitely be difficult. But he pretended to have a helpless expression on his face and said: "In this case, I have the bottom of my humble heart, so I will go and tell Yang Tong Lu Bu, as for whether it can be successful, the Great Khan must be mentally prepared." ”

"There's Mr. Law." Jieli Khan nodded bitterly, and sent it to the door for slaughter like this, and was afraid that people would be unhappy, this feeling was really uncomfortable, "By the way, we also have to eat, I hope we can replace some cattle and sheep with cow and sheep skins and some gold and silver, jade, and treasures." ”

"We still have gold, silver, jade, and treasures?" Zhao Deyan was stunned, this guy still has a treasure?

"There is Yan Ran Peak!" Jieli Khan smiled bitterly.

Zhao Deyan understood, Yan Ran Feng did have it, it was dedicated to the ancestors of the Turkic dynasties, and some of them would be piled up every year, and they had accumulated over the years, and there were really a lot.

It is estimated that he was ready to be slaughtered, so he hit the idea on the dead man, but think about it, Jieli Khan really has no choice, he can't let people starve to death.

It's just that no matter in the Central Plains or the Turks, moving the things of the ancestors is a great disrespectful crime, and Jieli Khan is taking a great risk by doing this!
