Chapter 369: The Royal Court

The dull sound of horses' hooves sounded again, and the gathered Daizhou army, with a little joy and laziness after victory, like a well-fed wolf pack, stayed away from this grassland.

From the beginning of the war to the present, it has only been a little more than an hour.

They did not count the results of the battle, but under Li Po's military order to surrender prisoners, they killed all the living Turkic cavalry, and left the steppe where 20,000 Turkic cavalry were buried.

In fact, in this battle, under the first battle of the Daizhou Army, almost completely annihilated this cavalry army that had made countless feats for Dongfang Khan.

Only a few hundred Turkic cavalry, who were bent on fleeing for their lives, fled to the north without looking back at the first moment of the surprise attack, becoming the survivors of this Turkic cavalry army.

A few black dots gradually appeared in the sky, hovering over the grassland, falling lower and lower, and finally falling in droves.

This is the most hated creature of the steppe people, the vulture, and where it appears, there is always death.

After more than half a day, a herdsman finally discovered the vision here and cautiously rushed over to watch.

The vultures, densely covered with a layer, are eating fiercely, and the smell of blood here can no longer be expressed in words.

The corpses of centaurs, no less than vultures, are scattered across the grassland, completely turning this place into a typical grassland cemetery.

The frightened herdsmen saw the ubiquitous scimitar and the corpse's outfit, so they turned around and ran, spreading the news quickly to the southern part of Acre, which was guarding the royal court.

In fact, the next day, when Ake Nan sent people to examine the corpses, Ashina Kefeng, who was embarrassed and frightened, was escorted to the city of Dali.

There was no imaginary commotion, and the city of Dali fell silent.

The Turkic nobles, who were preparing for a grand alliance, began to hesitate and hesitate as the news spread.

The 20,000 Turkic elite horsemen who should have rushed to Dali City in advance will not come, so the alliance will ...... Unable to see the birth of a tough royal master, then what is the point of the alliance?

Many people's minds suddenly become erratic.

Although Ake Nanfang soon sent people to clean up the battlefield, many cronies of the royal court nobles came to this grassland and brought everything here back to the royal court.

The more the news spread, the more true it became, and almost a few days later, everyone knew who was contributing to the trouble, and no one cared about it.

In fact, Ashina Elivo, who was about to ascend to the throne of Khan, was hit hard, and his henchman, Kru Hushe, was killed, and he was buried with one of his powerful arms, 20,000 Turkic horsemen.

If Shibi Khan is still there, there is no need to ask at this time, there will be no other voices in the royal court, and the angry Turkic royal court will definitely send a large army to exterminate the murderer, and cut off the heads of those who dare to challenge the majesty of the Turkic royal court.

This humiliation can only be washed away with the blood of the enemy.

But now, at the time of the succession of the Khan, the new Khan has not yet been blessed by the gods, and the allegiance of the clan leaders has officially ascended to the Khan's throne, and the situation has suddenly become complicated.

In fact, all this is not surprising, the casualties of 20,000 cavalry seem to be nothing in the Turks, who are known as having a million armor.

But the status of the Turkic elite cavalry in the Turks was similar to that of the standing army of the Sui people in the south, and the role of the little khan was even more important.

The strongest and most elite standing military forces of the Turks, with the Turkic elite cavalry guarding the royal court at the top, together formed the Khan's own army.

When the Khans were firmly in power, they were the Khan's most loyal military force in the Turkic Khanate, and they were on a par with the Xiaoguo Hussars of the Sui Emperor.

In fact, it was not because of how strong their fighting power was, but because they were full of noble children and could give strong support to the khan when the Turkic political structure was stable.

No army of the steppe tribe dared to attack them on the grassland, because it was a real hornet's nest, and with a single stab, you would have no hiding place in the grassland.

Next, there is the little Khan's pro-army, which is actually composed of two parts.

The appendages stationed by the royal court to the little khan, as well as the Turkic elite horsemen loyal to them, formed the little khan's pro-army team.

When they lost their Elite Guards, it was as if the little Khans had lost an arm.

Just like Jieli Khan Ashina, in the battle of Wuzhou Mountain, he lost his most reliable military force, so he was placed under house arrest in the royal court.

In fact, in other words, it was much more difficult for the Turkic Khanate to support a standing army than the Sui people, but they still had more than 100,000 standing troops.

This is where the Turkic Khanate is stronger than the Huns and the Rouran, because they are much faster in military mobilization, and can ensure their combat effectiveness, and at the same time, they can also support such several armies as a weapon to suppress rebellion and attack the enemy, of course, this is also one of their more fatal weaknesses.

Now, Ashina Eliver is a painful loss of arms, like a blow to the head.

Now Ashina Elifo has lived in the palace of Dali City, and has received nobles like a Turkic khan, as if only a crown is missing.

But the crown, which symbolized the Turkic kingship, had not yet been placed on his head, and he received such bad news.

Of course, he wanted to hide it, but those hateful enemies threw the corpses of the Turkic warriors on the steppe for people to see.

The news is spreading rapidly like a wind on the prairie.

After the death of Shibi Khan, the smile that had been hanging on Ashina Elivo's face, which was both sad but made people feel like a bamboo in his chest, finally disappeared.

He experienced the most proud time of his life, but it was very short.

Ashina Eliver was crooked on the thick and white sheep carpet of the Western Regions, but her body was still trembling slightly, it was anger at work.

"Damn Woman......"

He cursed in his heart, because the person sent by Princess Yicheng had just left, and for more than ten years, as the mistress of the Turkic royal court, she had established a prestige unimaginable among the Turkic tribes.

This is well known to the sons of the Khan of Qimin.

Therefore, the first thing Shibi Khan did when he ascended the throne was to ask Emperor Sui to remarry Princess Yicheng as his wife, and Ashina Eliver was no exception.

What made him proud and happy was that after his brother finally died, the flower that had always been very attractive finally nodded, and what was more convenient than his brother was that now that the emperor of the Sui people was dead, and the Sui people were also in civil strife, the noble Turkic Khan no longer had to ask anyone.

And Ashina Eliver also wants to combine the upcoming alliance with a grand wedding, which may be the most glorious moment of his life.

But now, the woman said that after the Khan's funeral, let the nobles come and discuss their marriage.

Yes, the people in the royal court are all the same, and no one is exempt, and the promise that shines like gold is worthless in their minds.

The woman hesitated, and like many nobles in the royal court, Ashina Eliver knew very well that no one would elect a man with a bad reputation, but at the beginning of his ascension to the throne, he was defeated by the enemy as the Great Turkic Khan.

But reason could not extinguish his anger, and the incompetent Kruhu not only buried 20,000 warriors, but also probably buried the throne of the Khan King who was close at hand.

At this time, he could even clearly hear those greedy and despicable nobles hiding in the shadows and snickering, but he didn't want to think about what kind of shame and embarrassment it would bring to the Turkic court by letting the enemy kill so many warriors near the royal court.

He wanted to summon the nobles to come to him and discuss how to kill those cunning enemies and maintain the majesty of the Golden Wolf Banner.

But in fact, there are really not many people who can give him awe.

Ashina Biji has come here, and the henchmen he brought with the royal court have also gathered in front of him, but how to wash away the shame has silenced everyone.

He had not yet ascended to the throne of the Khan, and among the main tribes, only Akhnan was close to him and willing to be driven by him.

In other words, when the Yunzhong tribe moved north one after another, unwilling to stop the way to the royal court from the eastern tribes, he had already offended many nobles.

And he wants the royal court to send troops, but he doesn't have a name yet, because he is not a great khan after all.

"Eliver, my beloved brother, let's go and meet Kedun, only she can convince the nobles that you already have the authority to rule the Turkic tribes, Ashina is more willing to hear Kedun's voice......"

Ashina Eliver waved his hand and asked Ashina Biji not to continue, his head hurt, what he didn't know was that his face was also very pale.

A burst of dizziness hit him, making Ashina Elivier gasp fiercely, he ignored the eyes of his henchmen, hurriedly took out a box from the blanket, grabbed a pill from it, and couldn't wait to eat it.

Soon, the familiar feeling took over his body and mind, making his eyes blur, and a hint of blush appeared on his pale and emaciated face.

He exhaled a pleasant breath, his eyes refocused, and became sharp and deep, and the familiar Dongfang Khan returned to the front of the people.

"Send a message to Ashina Boyu again, let him come to the royal court quickly, we were bitten by a beast from the south, they are Sui people, and that woman is also ...... There is no one in the royal court who can be trusted now...... The warriors of the southern part of Ak, still can't enter the city? ”

As he spoke, he vaguely smelled some conspiracy.
