Volume 1 A Hundred Battles Yellow Sand Wears Gold Armor Chapter 46 Who dares to drink the poison general's toast
When the oncoming cavalry team was still a stone's throw away from Changsun Sheng and Princess Xinyi's chariot, it was like a flood hitting an invisible reef, and suddenly split to both sides, and at the end of the front there were three tall horses, and three people sat upright at once, in front of an old monk dressed obviously different from that of a Buddhist monk, and behind were two captains.
Changsun Sheng took the lead, the guards followed closely behind with high banners, and the Western Turkic cavalry who greeted the left and right suddenly drew their swords out of their sheaths and shouted three times to the sky: "Oh oh ......", its sound was like a wolf howling the moon.
Countless snow-bright steel knives were held in the air, flashing countless rays of light against the sun, like the scales reflected by the sun on the sea.
Changsun Sheng's eyes narrowed, and for a while he only felt the cold air, and the hairs on his body stood up, but his sitting posture did not move at all, he was still upright and straight, his face was solemn, and he couldn't see any changes. The Western Turkic cavalry suddenly drew their swords and roared in salute, obviously aimed at scaring the Sui envoy by surprise, so that the Sui envoy would be embarrassed and conspicuous. But apparently Changsun Sheng disappointed the Western Turks.
The cavalry of the Sui army behind Changsun Sheng were still galloping lightly, their pace was not a step faster because of the movements of the Western Turkic cavalry, nor was it a step slower, the formation was always like a whole, and this whole was moving forward synchronously, the rhythm of movement in stillness, and stillness in movement, but reflected the superb riding skills and psychological quality of this Sui cavalry.
Of course, this might of the Western Turkic cavalry could not frighten these Great Sui cavalry, last year these cavalry just participated in the great battle with the Western Turks in Jincheng County, and participated in the last hundreds of miles of pursuit of the Western Turkic army.
The carriages of Changsun Sheng and Princess Xinyi rode one after the other, and galloped in front of King Hata and the other three who were standing on the horses in front of them. Princess Xinyi's door curtain was closed, and she couldn't see any movement inside, but Changsun Sheng was wearing a crown in court clothes, sitting in the car and not moving. I don't know when, he was already holding a brocade box two feet long and made of Ming and Huang Tuan dragon satin, which contained the book of peace and pro-country agreed between the Great Sui and the Western Turks.
King Bodo brought two captains to greet the Great Sui mission at his doorstep, and he still needed to bring so many cavalry over? Obviously, he wanted to be able to scare the Sui people in momentum when the two sides met, so that they could have an advantage in the subsequent negotiations and make the Sui people dare not make trouble.
But let's not talk about the eldest grandson Sheng's envoy to the east. The Turks have been Turkic many times, and a scholar like him attaches the most importance to integrity and etiquette, and even if he dies, he will not lose the prestige of the kingdom.
The national letter can be taken out after entering the Western Turkic royal court, and now that it is taken out, it naturally means that "I am here on behalf of my Great Sui, if you dare to insult me, it will be an insult to my Great Sui." Let's see! β
At the moment, Tongye Hu Khan and King Bodo didn't want to and didn't dare to compete with the Great Sui, so King Bodo smiled slightly, his eyes were like electricity, and he glanced at Wang Junlin, the deputy envoy dressed as Zhou Hu behind Changsun Sheng, and said to Changsun Sheng: "This seat is a Turkic national teacher, and his law name is Boduo. The two Sui envoys and Her Royal Highness the princess have worked hard from afar, and invited into my royal court, the Khan has prepared a roast sheep with fine wine, and washed the dust for the two Sui envoys and Her Royal Highness the princess! β
Zhou Hu looked at King Bodo coldly and snorted coldly, but Changsun Sheng showed a smile full of spring breeze, arched his hand to King Bodo, and said, "The national teacher is polite, the national teacher is invited first!" β
β¦β¦
In the big tent of the royal court, which covers an area of one acre, there are three rows of long cases on the left and right sides of the door, and the cases are full of fine wine and delicacies, and the mountain delicacies and game. Although the dishes are not as detailed as the Central Plains, and the taste is not as good as the Chinese cuisine, it is also better than the many types, and the rough style of the full table, if you rarely eat it, it also has a unique flavor, especially the whole roast beef in the middle, each table has a large basin of hand-grilled mutton, and then with the large wine bowl, but it can also arouse people's appetite.
The big tent is sitting on the main seat facing the main seat, and the first one on the left hand is Changsun Sheng, and the one facing Changsun Sheng is King Bodo. Next to Changsun Sheng is the stand-in of Wang Junlin dressed as Zhou Hu, this guy is already very bold, and even a little big, Wang Junlin has deliberately explained before he came, so when he arrived on the territory of the Turks, he behaved dissolutely, and his expression was extremely cold, which can be said to be more like a poisonous general than Wang Junlin.
And since entering the big tent, including Tongye Hu Khan and King Bodo, most of the Turkic high-level officials in the tent have paid most of their attention to Zhou Hu, a fake poison general. It is no wonder that in last year's war, the three major battles that decided the victory of the entire battle were all led by Wang Junlin, and the methods used by Wang Junlin were indeed ruthless and poisonous enough.
However, contrary to the expectation of the eldest grandson Wuji, who was sitting next to Zhou Hu, the Turkic people looked at Zhou Hu with more respect than hatred. It can be seen that the Turkic nation respects the strong, especially the strong who have mastered the art of ten thousand enemies. Of course, this kind of respect will definitely not affect their killing intentions against Wang Junlin. I believe that as long as there is an opportunity, and Wang Junlin is not the deputy envoy of the Great Sui today, the Turks are willing to kill Wang Junlin despite the loss of tens of thousands of cavalry.
Changsun Sheng raised his glass and said with a smile: "When this official was in Daxing City, he admired the name of the Khan's bravery for a long time, and he didn't want to have the opportunity to conspire with the Khan to get drunk today. Hehe, this official will borrow the Khan's wine now, toast the Khan, please, please drink this cup to the Khan! β
Compared with the original Chuluo Khan, the Tongyehu Khan was a pure warrior, which was the main reason why King Hata was willing to support him on the throne. Therefore, almost all of the attention of Tongye Hu Khan was on Zhou Hu, a fake poison general. Even though Changsun Sheng toasted, he picked up the wine bowl, looked at Changsun Sheng politely, and raised his neck with Changsun Sheng, and drank the wine in one gulp. But the attention is still on Zhou Hu.
Changsun Sheng saw it in his eyes, and felt more and more in his heart that it was a wise move to listen to Wang Junlin in Gaotai City and make a stand-in.
At this time, Zhou Hu suddenly stood up, and the big tent suddenly fell silent, and everyone looked at this famous "poison general".
I saw Zhou Hu laugh for a long time, picked up a jar of wine next to him, and said loudly: "When the young general came, on the way, I saw a herd of sheep and sheep, thousands of horses galloping, and the wealth of the Western Turks, which can be seen from this. Outside the royal court, I saw the invincible majesty of the Western Turkic warriors with my own eyes, the Khan has such a strong army, and is assisted by a national teacher like King Bodofa, plus there are countless cattle and sheep as the backing, I believe that he will soon be able to dominate the Western Regions! β
As he spoke, Zhou Hu left his seat and said heroically: "For this reason, the young general wants to pour a bowl of wine for the Khan and the national teacher to pay respect." β
As he spoke, he had already walked towards the Tongye Hu Khan with the wine jar.
In the big tent, except for King Bodo's expression, he just observed Zhou Hu with a curious expression, and Tong Ye Hu's expression was condensed, and the essence in his eyes flashed, the rest of the Turks' faces suddenly changed, and more than a dozen guards had already rushed towards Zhou Hu.
The so-called, the name of the person, the shadow of the number, it can be seen how terrifying Wang Junlin's murderous and poisonous name is in the Western Turks.
"Stand down!" Tongye Hu Khan stared at Zhou Hu's every move, especially Zhou Hu's hand holding the wine jar, and then waved his hand, and those guards retreated.
And Zhou Hu didn't say anything else, but he was bold, so he could continue to walk towards Tongye Hu Khan without changing his face, and poured wine into the bowl on Tongye Hu Khan's desk with the wine jar in his hand.
Including the officials who didn't know Zhou Hudi's fine Sui envoy, the eyes of everyone in the tent suddenly stared at the bowl of wine.
Tongye Hu Khan's eyes were like knives, he stared at Zhou Hu fiercely, and secretly gritted his teeth and picked up the wine bowl.
"Great Khan, no!" More than a dozen high-ranking Western Turks in the big tent shouted at the same time.
As soon as the audience dissuaded him, Tong Yehu's courage that he had just mustered was vented again, and he put the wine bowl on the table again.
"Khan doesn't look down on the young general, and he doesn't want to drink the wine that the young general poured himself." Zhou Hu was aggressive.
"Wang Junlin, you are not afraid that I will kill you." Tong Ye Hu was a little annoyed and angry, and he had a murderous intention in his heart.
Zhou Hu's heart jumped, wondering if he was playing too much, annoying this dog day khan, he really killed me, and the game was over.
Thinking like this, Zhou Hu stiffened his neck and wanted to say something, but the eldest grandson Wuji suddenly stood up and said: "General Wang is just a Guoyi lieutenant of my Great Sui, and he is indeed not qualified to pour wine for the Khan, so this bowl of wine was drunk by the lower officials." β
As he spoke, the eldest grandson Wuji had already walked over, and he didn't dislike the bowl of wine that Tongye Hu Khan had drunk, and he was about to drink it as soon as he raised his head. Tong Ye Hu Khan's face suddenly became extremely ugly, and he glanced at the subordinates in the tent viciously, thinking that no one in his mother took the initiative to stand up and test the wine for Lao Tzu.
At this moment, King Bodo glanced at a captain next to him, who suddenly stood up and said, "I heard that there are only 5,000 men under the command of the poisonous general Wang Junlin, and of course he is not qualified to toast our khan. β
As he spoke, the Western Turk Commander, who called himself Maladuz, walked over and took the wine bowl from the eldest grandson Wuji.
It's just that just as he was about to drink the wine in one gulp, Zhou Hu suddenly said, "Wait." β
Maraduz said, "What else is the matter with General Wang? β
Zhou Hu said: "The bowl is not full yet, I will add some wine to Captain Maraduzwan." β
As he spoke, Zhou Hu picked up the wine jar and dropped a drop of wine into the wine bowl in Maladuz's hand.
Maladuz's face suddenly changed, and his face hesitated a little.
"Why, Captain Maraduzwan also thinks that you are not qualified to drink this bowl of wine." Zhou Hu said.
