Chapter 11: Ambition
Fang Jun's face turned pale, and he ordered: "Leave two witnesses, and the rest will be killed!" ”
"Whoa!"
Gao Kan received the order and ordered people to tie up these soldiers and kill them on the spot.
There are only more than ten of Fang Jun's personal soldiers on this trip, and bringing so many prisoners is asking for trouble, and he can't take care of it, once he is escaped, it is very likely to send a letter to Yuwenfa in advance to warn, which will hinder Fang Jun's next actions.
"Spare your life!"
"Don't kill me, I'll tell you anything you want to know!"
"If you want to kill, kill it, frowning your eyebrows is not a hero!"
"Please, I still have an eighty-year-old mother and a three-year-old child at home......"
"Come and cut yes, my head has a big scar!"
Some died generously, others wailed and begged for mercy.
They are soldiers, and they can charge into battle without fear of death on the battlefield, but they are not dead soldiers, and in the face of Xueliang's horizontal knife, it is impossible for each of them to be indifferent to life and death.
Fang Jun didn't have any sympathy at the moment, with a wave of his big hand, he immediately screamed miserably, and the heads rolled down, and the snow was stained red with hot blood.
"Get on the horse, arrive at Mayi City after dawn!" Fang Jun ordered loudly and turned over on his horse.
Gao Kan and Wei Ying tied the hands and feet of the two witnesses, stuffed rags in their mouths, and put them on horseback, and the group grabbed the reins and turned around to cross the earthen hill and went straight to Mayi City along the pass.
*****
North of Dingxiang City, Xue Yantuo camp.
More than ten butter torches burned brightly, illuminating the whole tent, and the torches burned with a faint green smoke, making the tent smoky.
However, the grassland Hu people can't afford to buy Han candles, and they have long been accustomed to being so smoky and burning all their lives......
Dadushi was dressed neatly, dressed in a big hat, squinting at the leaders of more than ten Tiele tribes such as Hui, Bayegu, Tongluo, Servant Bone, Duo Langge, Sijie, Ah Fall, Qi, Falling Knot, Hun and Hu Xue, and his heart was full of pride.
Tiele has always been the most powerful ethnic group in the desert steppe, but due to internal divisions, had to rely on the Turks, sweating and sweating for the strength of the Turks, contributing cattle and sheep children, but they are still suspicious of them, provoking and pressuring, and scattering sand.
It wasn't until Xue Yantuo rose and unified the Tiele tribes that the great unification of Tiele was realized!
The united Tiele people are absolutely invincible, they are the wolves and eagles on the grassland desert, invincible wherever the blade goes!
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have just received a piece of news, so I have summoned you to come to discuss, and I hope you will not blame you for disturbing your dreams. Tu Tudu, you tell everyone about the situation. ”
"Whoa!"
Tu Midu cleared his throat and told him that Zhao Deyan had sent someone to look for him.
This man spoke eloquently, his tone was subdued, and his words were very clear......
As soon as he finished speaking, the tent was deformed and noisy!
"Zhao Deyan, that old thief is not dead yet?"
"That old dog must be a hundred years old, he can really live!"
"That traitor has caused our Tiele tribes to suffer so much, how can his words be trusted?"
"Yes, yes, there must be a trap waiting for us, we Tiele people will not die, and the old dog will never die!"
……
Zhao Deyan's prestige on the grassland is too great, even if he has not been seen for more than ten years, but at this moment, his name appears in the big tent, and the leaders of these Tiele tribes suddenly remembered Zhao Deyan's advice to several Turkic khans in the past, which brought the suppression and persecution of the Tiele tribes.
It really hurts to the bone marrow, and it's unforgettable!
Reprimanded, scolded, complained.
Dadu set was so noisy that his brain hurt, and he quickly waved his hand, and the noise gradually subsided, and he asked: "What is the noise?" Gudo, you can tell me. ”
Gu Duo is the leader of the servant bone department, with five big and three thick leopard heads and ringed eyes, very powerful, and said when he heard the words: "Second prince, that Zhao Deyan served under the tent of Luo Khan and Jieli Khan, and was relied on by the two khans and treated each other as strategists...... That Zhao Deyan is the enemy of life and death of the Wu Tiele tribes! How can you listen to him? ”
As soon as this statement came out, there were many people who supported it.
It is really Zhao Deyan's image of being as fierce as the devil in the minds of these Tiele tribesmen, which is too unforgettable......
Da Du Shi pointed to a thin old man and asked, "Qu Li, you can talk about it." ”
Qu Lichuan is the leader of the Baye Gu clan, and when he heard this, his eyes rolled, and he hurriedly said: "Second prince, I don't agree with Guduo's words. Speaking of grudges, there are countless grievances and hatreds on this steppe, not to mention the hatred between our Tiele people and the Turkic people for hundreds of years, even if all of us here are descendants of Tiele, but there are fewer enemies between each other? The grassland has always been who is strong and listens to whom, not only occupies the fattest water and grass, the fattest cattle and sheep, but also occupies the most beautiful women! Everyone, you are fighting for me, how can you not have a grudge? In my opinion, although Zhao Deyan has a grudge against Tiele, his grudge against the Turks is even worse! Now it is rumored on the grassland that he is actually a Han Chinese, because his family was slaughtered by the Turks, so he was determined to take revenge, and became a strategist of the Turkic Khan incognito, and bewitched the stupid Jieli Khan to learn what changes the Han people made, and as a result, the world was in chaos and was destroyed by the Tang army. Speaking of which, the Turks have much more hatred for Zhao Deyan than we do! The blood feud between the two sides is like a sea, how can they give up? Therefore, this time, Zhao Deyan must be using the hands of our Tiele to completely destroy the Turks! ”
The ancient tribe of Baye is weak among the Tiele tribes, and has always been the head of Xue Yantuo's horse, Qu Lishu This person is also extremely good at drilling camps, and seeing that Dadu has the intention of tending to send troops to Dingxiang, rather than the original coercion of Dingxiang to achieve the plan of peace with the Tang Dynasty, he will follow the meaning of Dadu's design......
Sure enough, after hearing the words, the look on his face looked a lot better.
"Fart! You old thing is nothing but a whisker! Not to mention the Tang army garrison in the city of Mayi, the right guard has arrived in the city, and there is still the right guard on the way to come, these two guards are the elite of the Tang army, the two guards add up to 780,000 soldiers and horses, in case we attack Dingxiang suddenly appear, then we will lose our ground, regret it too late! ”
Guduo glared angrily and scolded.
Qu Li's old face turned red, and he said angrily: "Presumptuous! You little cub is so disrespectful, and your father doesn't dare to talk to me like that here! The Han people also said, 'win with the right combination and win with the odd', when Li Jing attacked thousands of miles before he destroyed the Turks, if everyone is as afraid as you are afraid of this, afraid of that, the Turks are still strong and strong, and we will suffer on the moraine! Which battle is nine out of ten? Because of the risks, the gains will be huge! ”
……
The two quarreled endlessly, and there were also people watching the excitement next to them from time to time, and they were boiling for a while.
Dadu sat in the main seat with a gloomy face, staring fiercely at Guduo and the others with a pair of wolf-like eyes.
Daring to be so unscrupulous and noisy in the big tent, it was obvious that he didn't take him, the second prince of Xue Yantuo, into account at all, and the prestige he set up was not enough to silence these tribal leaders and follow them loyally.
It is precisely because of this that he has become more and more determined to set up a generous mind......
Only by winning Dingxiang and occupying the vast grasslands of Baidao will his prestige rise to the top of his magnanimity, surpassing his elder brother Bazhuo in one fell swoop, and becoming a strong contender for Xue Yantuo's next khan!
Holding back the anger in his heart, he looked sideways at a big man with a beard and a stocky figure beside him, and asked, "Big brother, what do you think?" ”
This great man is the nephew of Yinan Khan, the cousin of Dadushe, who is brave and resourceful, and is deeply used by Yinan Khan, and has a high prestige in the tribes of Xue Yantuo.
Rama rubbed his chin and said slowly: "In my opinion, why argue? All you need to do is prepare to pull out the camp, and at the same time send scouts to Mayi City to find out the truth. If it is really as Zhao Deyan said, the right guard is powerless to attack, and the right guard has not yet arrived, then when he can immediately attack Dingxiang, capture it with lightning speed, and then go back to discuss with Datang. If what Zhao Deyan said was false, he could further coerce Dingxiangcheng and coerce Datang to make peace with Xue Yantuo, presumably at this time, Datang would definitely not be willing to start a war with Xue Yantuo. ”
Xue Yantuo dared to take advantage of the harsh winter to send troops to Bai Daochuan to coerce Dingxiangcheng, because the eastward expedition to Goguryeo caused all the resources of the country to be seriously tilted eastward, and he had no time to take care of it, so he pounced on it and took a bite of meat to eat......
