Chapter 1000: The Storm in the Western Regions

Clenched his fists tightly, Guo Xiaoke raised his arms on horseback and shouted: "Gentlemen, the opportunity to make contributions has arrived!" What is a mere Turkic cavalry attacking Yizhou? Yanqi and Qiuzi are the real feats! Please come with me to Yanqi, cut down the dragon riding branch from the horse, exterminate Yanqi, and then sweep away the turtles, we can make immortal feats, and the marquis will be promoted to the rank of knight, isn't it happy? ”

Tiele and other soldiers attached to the Tang Dynasty will be stimulated by Guo Xiaoke's passionate declaration one by one, screaming and waving their blades on horseback, vowing to defeat Yanqi and Qiuzi, make meritorious contributions, and worship the generals!

Guo Xiaoke saw that the people's hearts were available, and decided to strike while the iron was hot, while gathering troops to march to Yancheng, the capital of Qiuzi State, and on the other hand, he ordered various tribes to send people back to mobilize soldiers and generals, and prepared to attack the southern gate of Yanqi State-Tiemen Pass.

That night, Guo Xiaoke led a large army from Yizhou to the east, and raided the country of Qiuci overnight.

*****

Yancheng, the capital of Qiuzi country, is known locally as Ilulu City.

Five or six miles around, its city is threefold, the royal palace is magnificent, it is like a god's residence, and the outer city can be comparable to the city wall of Chang'an.

The mountains outside the city are majestic, red and daisy, and there are many copper and iron mines. With the introduction of iron-smelting technology in the Central Plains, the scale of iron-smelting and product quality in Qiuzi have reached a considerable level. "There are mountains two hundred miles north of Qiuzi, and the fire is light at night, but smoke is smoke during the day. People take this mountain stone; Smelt this mountain iron, Hengchong 36 countries. ”

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, Ban Chaoding the Western Regions, set up the Western Regions Protectorate here, opened canals, prospered agriculture, and developed economically. The remains of the "Han Canal" in this period, and the beacon ruins such as the Kizil Gaha Beacon Tower, are the evidence of the Han soldiers' reclamation and resistance to the Xiongnu.

However, with the change of the Central Plains Dynasty and the collapse of the prosperous state, the control of the Western Regions has been reduced to an unprecedented situation. Even if the Tang Dynasty is rampant all over the world now, it is too far away from Qiuci, and it is far less threatening than the Turks who are close at hand......

In the magnificent and luxurious palace of Yancheng, the king of Qiuzi, Ha Libu, lost the six gods and was in a panic, like an ant on a hot pot, constantly complaining about the prime minister Nari who was sitting firmly in front of him.

"The prime minister's move is really inappropriate, the Tang Dynasty soldiers are invincible, how can we rebel against the Tang Dynasty and join the Turks? You see, the Turkic front foot captured Yizhou, which lacked major generals, and the back foot was defeated by the Tang Dynasty, and now the Tang Dynasty has turned east, and Guo Xiaoke, the capital of Anxi, swore that he would use the king's head in exchange for his promotion to the rank of knight, how to resist my Qiuzi troops? ”

Nearly fifty years old, Nali Zushang was a wealthy merchant of the Han people, who fled to the Western Regions because of his crimes in the Central Plains, and took root in the country of Qiuci, and gradually became a wealthy merchant here.

He was born with an elegant and handsome appearance, with a white face and no beard, and at this moment he turned his head to look at the decaying trees and glazed roofs in the palace, and he didn't care about the broken thoughts of the king of Qiuzi, Ha Libu......

Opposite him, the general of Qiuzi, had a bronzed square face with no expression, his eyebrows lowered, and he was wandering.

He muttered for a while, and then looked at the two great Optimus Jade Pillars and the Golden Beam of the Sea in front of him, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of powerlessness in his heart.

Is this the country of Qiuzi where he lost his hand, or the country of Qiuzi where Prime Minister Nari was lost?

As the general of Qiuzi, the allegiance of the Hunting Dian is not to him, the king of Qiuci, but to the prime minister. His orders are only in the ears of the hunt, and the orders of Prime Minister Nali are the golden rule!

Fortunately, Prime Minister Nari did not have the idea of replacing himself, otherwise he and the entire royal family would have been dry bones in the grave many years ago, and the throne of Qiuzi would have been replaced by Nari a long time ago......

This man is strategic, decisive and victorious, and has the style of a countryman, but he has no ambition.

When Han Libu finished speaking, his mouth was dry, and Na Li Caiyun said lightly: "The king doesn't have to worry, the minister has a plan in his heart, and he can't keep it so that Guo Xiaoke can come and go!" ”

He was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked, "Will the plan be released?" ”

Nali smiled slightly, and said slowly: "Without him, it's just to lure the enemy deeper." ”

Then, he glanced at the general and asked indifferently, "Has the general ever prepared?" ”

The indifferent Qiang Liedian, who had just lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, immediately sat down and said respectfully: "Rest assured, the Prime Minister, all the armies have been notified to clarify their respective tasks to ensure that they can retreat without chaos and launch a counterattack in the shortest possible time." ”

Nali nodded: "Very good, there is General Lao." ”

He said respectfully: "The prime minister is serious, this is a matter of humble duty, and he does not dare to take credit." ”

The king of Qiuzi on the side, Han Libu, looked so depressed, are you my courtier, or the courtier of the prime minister?

Prime Minister Nali has always shown the sincerity of his loyal assistance, which makes Khalib very relieved that he has lost everything. But no matter how broad-minded a monarch is, it is impossible to ignore the fact that his courtiers ignore him, but he looks down on the prime minister.

If one day Nari feels that the position of prime minister is boring, and wants to taste the taste of King Qiuzi, and even wants to sleep with all kinds of concubines from different countries in the Western Regions, it is easy to murder himself......

But he didn't dare to have the slightest intention of getting rid of Nari.

Nali himself is a brilliant man of wisdom and change, and his vigilance is very strong, and most of the troops in the country are loyal to him, and the family behind him is one of the best in the country. Now Nari is content with the status quo, if it is because of his own recklessness that Nari has to attack himself......

That's the tragedy.

In his heart, there were gains and losses in his heart, and a guard outside the main hall trotted in and shouted: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister, the Tang army has arrived thirty miles west of the capital, and it is menacing, and there are various tribes attached to the Tang Dynasty to send troops together, with no less than 10,000 troops!" ”

He was almost frightened to death, his face was pale, he grabbed Nali's hand, and exclaimed sadly: "The Tang army is really here!" Prime Minister, how is it now? ”

Nali smiled faintly, patted Han Libu's lost hand, and whispered: "Don't worry about going up, you can clean up and take the concubines of the harem to the east and exit the capital." Three days later, the minister guarantees that he can repel the Tang army and welcome you back to the capital. ”

His expression was indifferent, and there was a calm and unhurried confidence between his words and bearing, as if facing the wolf-like Tang Army and the elite soldiers of various tribes was like facing a group of ragged horse bandits and robbers.

He had already lost his mind, and hurriedly said, "Then please leave everything to the prime minister!" If the Tang army is really repelled, this king will naturally reward him. After that, he walked quickly into the apse to arrange for his beauties to withdraw from the capital with him to avoid the edge of the Tang army. He didn't want to be breached once the country was breached, and these delicate beauties would become the playthings of the wolf-like Tang Army's crotch, and he would be put on countless green hats......

Watching the lost figure of Ha Libu disappear into the apse, the general Karma Hunting's eyes were full of disdain, and he snorted lightly, and said to Nali: "Why should the prime minister succumb to such an incompetent person? As long as the prime minister nods, he should bring up the three-foot sword and lead the left and right Hu troops to kill all over the imperial city, and help you ascend the throne as the king of Qiuzi! We warriors of a hundred battles only obey the wise and wise prime minister, and we really dare not surrender to this person! ”

This is simply a Western Regions version of the "yellow robe", at this time, there is no need for Nari to make any instructions, as long as he remains silent, the military power in hand can do everything for him.

Afterwards, he will get an excuse of "persecution from his subordinates, and he has to do it", and if he can treat the royal family well, he will leave a good reputation in the history books for being kind and not forgetting salvation......

Nali looked indifferent, slowly shook his head and said, "It's not time yet." ”

The blazing in the eyes of the hunting suddenly ignited!

It's not "no", it's "not the time"!

It turns out that the prime minister also has the ambition to soar to the sky in his heart!

The great prime minister Nari is a brilliant strategist, and there has not been a single mistake in his life. Who doesn't want to follow such a person to sweep through the 36 countries of the Western Regions in a hundred battles, lay down a big territory to fight against the Tang Dynasty, and leave a name in history for a hundred generations?

Compared to Nari, Khalib was simply an incompetent and stupid breeder who only knew how to collect beautiful women for his pleasure......

He knelt down on one knee, put his right hand into a fist on his chest, and said in a deep voice: "Swear allegiance to the prime minister!" ”

Nari nodded with satisfaction, raised his eyes to look at the luxurious layout in the main hall, and sighed softly: "After this great battle, I wonder if the luxury here will still exist safely, or will it become a ruined wall?" Hurry up and command the army, remember, you can't blindly defeat and flee, you have to fight and retreat, and lure the enemy deeper! ”

"Humble orders!" Hunt let out a loud shout and stood up.

Nali rarely put away his usual cloud and light breeze, his face was serious, his eyes staring at the hunting were radiant, and he shouted in a deep voice: "Only defeat, not victory!" Go, our great deeds begin now! ”

"No!"

The hunter shouted violently and strode away.

He is convinced that under the strategy of Prime Minister Nali, more than 10,000 Tang troops will be like chickens and dogs!

The time is definitely not far off when Qiuzi will rise and sweep the Western Regions!
