Chapter 392: Laughing and Laughing and Crying
The Guanlongmen valve can only serve Wei Chigong's army with good food and drink, and it is best to be able to buy it.
Wei Chigong didn't enter, and he was still looking at the book of the White Snake with unfinished eyes.
Li Zheng, who was in Jingyang, was also looking forward to Wei Chigong coming back with troops as soon as possible, so as to recruit a few more security guards for Jingyang.
As the saying goes, once you are bitten by a snake for ten years, you are afraid of the well rope, and the security level of Jingyang must be improved.
Manpower is a big problem.
Li Yifu came back and reported: "Chang'an Order, Ashina is here." ”
Li Zheng looked at Jingyang's drinking water and said, "Bring it here." ”
Ashina followed Li Yifu to the Jingyang River and saw Li Zheng and said, "Chang'an Order, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
"Brother Shi has been in Chang'an recently, how is it?"
Ashina was accustomed to this title, and saluted a little and said: "According to your orders, I have been staying in Chang'an these days, keeping an eye on the movements of the court, as you said, there are also many people in the court who oppose this time to send troops to help the loss of thinking." ”
Looking at Li Zheng's smile, Ashina said again: "I heard in the post house, this time you Li Zheng asked for 3,000 hectares north of the Turkic Hetao?" ”
Li Zheng nodded, "That's right." ”
Ashina said: "This request is too much. ”
Li Zheng sat on the stones by the river beach and said in a low voice: "Brother Shi thinks that we Datang shouldn't want these lands?" ”
Ashina took out the map prepared in advance, "This is our Turkic map. ”
"Although Brother Shi Na is in Xue Yantuo now, it seems that he still can't let go of the Turks."
Ashina's expression showed a little unwillingness, but he still spoke: "Chang'an Order, please see, now the Western Turks have taken Yudu Mountain, but at the moment, if the Tang Dynasty is taking away 3,000 hectares of land, the Turks will either rely on Xue Yantuo or fight hard with the Western Turks to recapture Yudu Mountain." ”
"The 3,000 hectares north of the Hetao that the Chang'an Order wants is the most abundant place in the Turkic grasslands."
Li Zheng nodded indifferently and said, "I just want this land." ”
"If the Turks are driven out of these 3,000 hectares, the Turks will only be able to fight to the death with the Western Turks, and it is more likely that they will harm my Xue Yantuo."
Li Zheng put his hands in his sleeves and sighed.
Ashina said: "I thought that I would not hand over these 3,000 hectares to Datang no matter what. ”
"Do you dare to start a war with Datang at this time?"
Ashina asked rhetorically: "Isn't Chang'an Ling afraid that the Eastern Turks will unite with the Western Turks and attack the Tang Dynasty together?" A thousand years ago, the Eastern and Western Turks were one. ”
"That's right, you were all Huns back then."
Ashina said again: "I think it's better not to do this in Chang'an. ”
Li Zheng said wistfully: "It seems that Brother Shi still doesn't understand the good intentions of the subordinates." ”
"Good intentions?"
"Yes, in my eyes, the Ashina clan is the orthodox royal family of the grassland, and he is obsessed with thinking power."
"You mean."
"After the big break, there is only Da Li, didn't Brother Shi think about returning to the grassland, inheriting your father's mantle again, and being the khan on the grassland?"
Li Zheng whispered to Ashina: "Back then, Jieli drove you to Xue Yantuo, do you just want to forget it, even if Jieli is no longer in the grassland now, he is still the second Jieli." ”
Ashina gritted his teeth and said, "I always dream of returning to the Turkic steppe. ”
Li Zheng looked pleased, nodded and said: "In this way, only when the forces that have lost their thinking power are gone, Shi Na can establish a khan again, am I right?" ”
"You want to help me?"
"There's not much I can do to help."
Ashina whispered, "Why are you so fearless. ”
Li Zheng smiled: "Because I know that it is impossible for the Western Turks and the Eastern Turks to unite. ”
"Why?"
"I won't tell you."
Ashina was speechless for a while.
Li Zheng then whispered: "Brother Shi, do you want to be the Khan of the Turks again, or do you want to live in the bitter cold land of Xue Yantuo for the rest of your life. ”
"I want to go back to the Turkic steppe."
"Isn't this okay, I can't stop thinking about it, how can Brother Shi go back to the grassland,"
Ashina smiled bitterly again, "It's not easy to talk about." ”
Li Zheng said in a low voice: "It's better to be like this, Brother Shi sent someone to send a letter to Xue Yantuo, as long as Xue Yantuo has 10,000 soldiers and horses to advance into the Turkic territory for five miles, I dare to guarantee that the Turks will not dare to fight back." And let the stubbornness collapse and never turn over again? ”
"Really?"
"Seriously!"
Ashina retracted the map and said, "Okay! Then wait for the good news. ”
"For the sake of the big picture."
Ashina nodded heavily, "For the great cause of the Turks!" ”
After leaving Jingyang, Ashina had mixed feelings in her heart.
But there was a feeling in my heart.
Li Zheng will not die, and the Turks will not be at peace for a day.
A few days later, news came from the DPRK and China, and His Majesty sent 50,000 soldiers and horses to advance into the Hetao, and advanced ten miles north of the Hetao.
Entered the boundaries of the Eastern Turks.
As soon as the Tang Dynasty's army advanced, it was blocked in the rear of the Turks.
What does Li Shimin want to do?
Want to go to war with the Eastern Turks?
The Turkic envoy immediately panicked and found the crown prince Li Chengqian again.
Li Chengqian didn't expect his father to do this.
With the Turkic envoys, he came to Jingyang again.
The Turkic envoy said to Li Zheng in a panic: "Dare to ask Chang'an Ling, what does Your Majesty mean today?" ”
Li Zheng calmly drank the tea and said, "I don't understand what the envoy means, so please ask the envoy to make it clear." ”
The Turkic envoy knelt on the ground, "Chang'an Order, why did Tian Khan send troops into the steppe." ”
Li Zheng smiled and said: "Don't panic, envoy, it's just to send troops over for a walk, and I won't beat you Turks." ”
The Turkic envoy said anxiously: "Take a walk? 50,000 soldiers and horses to disperse in the grasslands? ”
"That's right, you don't know this Turkic envoy, we Central Plains people like to gang up when we walk."
"Gang up 50,000 people to spread together?"
Li Zheng grilled mutton skewers and said with a smile: "Rest assured, Your Majesty didn't say that he wanted to fight your Turks." ”
Looking at the Turkic envoy's cold sweat, Li Zheng handed him a string of mutton skewers.
The Turkic messenger trembled and took the skewer of mutton.
Li Zheng said: "Look at how scared you are, those 50,000 soldiers and horses just go to the grassland and walk around, they really won't beat you, unless you ......"
The Turkic envoy glared and said, "Unless something ......"
"Unless you Turks strike first."
"How could we Turks make the first move." The Turkic envoy smiled awkwardly.
"Yes, how could you have done it first, but our army wants to hunt some prey on the steppe, and if you Turks don't show hospitality, not everyone will be as respectful as this messenger."
"This ......"
The Turkic envoy struck a spirit.
"Don't blame us if you do it, I can warn you beforehand."
The mutton skewers in the hands of the Turkic envoy fell to the ground, looking a little choked and sad, and tears remained uncontrollably.
"Look at you, you just said and laughed, now why are you laughing and laughing and crying again."
