The best strategy to deal with the current situation, Li Huaitang has long thought of it. That is to let Samarkand keep the stalk in the throat of the Turgish, distracting the attention of the Turgish, so that they have no way to use this as a stronghold and go south to the city of Qishi. At the same time, make good use of the trump card of the Bone Sip Alliance, and slowly wrestle with the Tuqi Shi people. It's a certain distance from their old lair, they can't stay here for long, and they have to rush back before winter.

Li Huaitang hoped that Ashlas would send troops to support Samarkand, which was isolated in the middle of the river, so that the two sides would fight evenly and accumulate strength while reaping their own profits. However, Ashras's reaction disappointed Li Huaitang.

On the way to Zhanmu, Li Huaitang carefully thought about the impending crisis. Mohedagan will definitely not give up, and he slapped him hard again, and it is estimated that after he returns, he will definitely do everything he can to slander and slander in front of Sulu Khan. Mohe Dagan's strength has been wiped out by himself Nearly 3,000 people, and according to Gu Si, the elite of Mohe Dagan's headquarters is only 8,000 people. On the grassland, strength is king, and Mohe Dagan has been hit so hard that he should be reluctant to use his elite again. Otherwise, if you lose thousands of people, you will be in danger of being swallowed up by competitors.

If there is no accident, Mo He Dagan will definitely use the identity and fame of Dadu Mo to let Shi Guoren beat himself. Otherwise, they will instigate other tribes, such as Dumozhi, to send troops against themselves. There's a good chance he's just hiding behind his back, waiting for the right moment.

Before they reached Zhanmu, Li Huaitang arranged for ten eagles to cross the river and let them go back to Qishi City first, inform Heizi and Wumeng of what had happened in the past few days, and let them hurry up their preparations for war.

On the other hand, Li Huaitang also sent two eagle horsemen to quietly sneak back to Amul and give Gu Si a message. This move is very important to Li Huaitang.

On the Governor of Khorasan's side, he also had to be ruthless, not only to squeeze out military aid, but also to force them to deploy troops on the Wuhu River to contain the strength of the Turgish people.

The important town of Zhanmu is like a great enemy.

The defenders inside the fort had long been informed of the scouts, and an unidentified cavalry with a large number of livestock was approaching. The striker of the Turgish appeared not far downstream yesterday. The defenders, who heard about the enemy's situation, were all worried. Zhanmu was an important town connecting Mulu and Balhei, and in order to effectively rule Tocharo, Khorasan set up a general's palace in Balhei. If Zhanmu is lost, the connection between the two places will have to travel thousands of miles. Therefore, Zhanmu's status as a big cannibal is very important and cannot be lost. Zhanmu's garrison has been strengthened to nearly 10,000 people, but most of them are newly recruited recruits.

"Listen, I am Suhail, the envoy of Governor Ashras. He was ordered to send an envoy and met the Turgish on the way. But I'm out of danger, and those behind me are the ones who saved me, and there is no hostility. I begged to let them go. ”

Sukhail shouted loudly under the city of Timber.

The defenders were also unambiguous and shouted at Sukhail: "No one is allowed to enter the city without the order of the governor." ”

Sukhail beckoned behind him, and dozens of horsemen slowly moved forward, and nearly two hundred human heads were brought up and thrown under the city.

Sukhail pointed to the human head on the ground and continued to shout: "Let your general come out, if he doesn't believe it, you can see, this is the head of the Turgish." ”

After some negotiations, Sukhail retreated in a huff.

"General, it's a pity. They only agreed to let me in. As for the generals and generals' army, they are worried, that,"

Sukhail said awkwardly.

Li Huaitang didn't plan to go in the first place. He was only helping Sukhail to bring the head of the people, and when he arrived here, he crossed the river to the north.

Li Huaitang shook his head and said, "Then forget it." When you go back, please tell your governor that in order to survive, I don't mind selling my soul to the Turgish, and don't forget, there are still thousands of soldiers in Samarkand. If I don't have anything to do, next spring, let alone Samarkand, even Zhanmu will no longer belong to your big food. ”

"Can the general clarify the needs?" Sukhail said cautiously.

Li Huaitang said coldly: "If you want me to be the enemy of the Tuqi Shiren, you can!" First, you are to send troops to Amul and Zhanmu to put pressure on the Turgishes and disperse their forces. Second, grain and grass, I want half a year's food for 100,000 people. Thirdly, I will not embarrass you with the scimitar of Damascus, but as your governor has said, a head of a Turkish. In the desert, I left more than a thousand, let him cut it himself, here are two hundred. There are 1,200 in total. ”

Sukhail opened his mouth wide and felt like he was being scared silly.

"This, this, general, I won't do it, at most, I'll leave Damascus."

Sukhail was really frightened by Li Huaitang's conditions, and without even thinking about it, Ashlas would not agree at all. If you don't do it, you have to beat yourself up.

"Don't forget, what you signed for me. I've got it all with me, look at it. ”

Li Huaitang took out a sheepskin from his arms and shook it in front of Suhail's eyes.

Sukhail's heart was pounding, what Samarkand, the loss of Zhanmu had nothing to do with him, and the sheepskin in Li Huaitang's hand was what he cared about the most. It is not so much that Li Huaitang is holding a sheepskin in his hand, but that he is pinching his life.

"Huh?"

The sharp-eyed Sukhail found that the sheepskin in Li Huaitang's hand was a little strange and familiar, and the words and graphics on the sheepskin deeply attracted him.

"This, this is, can you show me?" The more Sukhail looked, the more surprised he became.

From Suhail's expression, Li Huaitang smelled a certain breath, this sheepskin is not so simple. Perhaps, as Eagle said, it is a treasure map.

Li Huaitang showed the sheepskin half-hidden and half-open to Sukhail. Sure enough, Sukhail's eyes were shining, and his hands even trembled and wanted to take the sheepskin from Li Huaitang's hand, but he was blocked by Li Huaitang.

"Lao Su, you really know the goods. I'm going to dedicate this to Sulu Khan. ”

Li Huaitang smiled gloomily.

Sukhail was still with his mouth open, but when he heard Li Huaitang's words, he almost drooled.

"Don't! This is easy to discuss. The general knows, even if it is given to Sulu Khan, it is useless, the things in this map are buried in our territory, uh, this, general, you make a price, I will buy it. ”

Sukhail was in a hurry and slipped his mouth.

Li Huaitang took the sheepskin in his hand incredulously and looked at it carefully, is it really a treasure map? Then you have to deceive the big cannibal.

"No, it's not for sale."

"This, General, is of no value to anyone but us. Please, sell it to me, with this thing I can be the governor of Khorasan. When the time comes, what the general needs, I promise to meet the general's requirements. ”

Sukhail was in a hurry.

"Then, add a thousand more Damascus scimitars." Li Huaitang opened his mouth.

Sukhail froze in embarrassment.

"Forget it, I'd better find the Turgi Shiren."

Li Huaitang put away the sheepskin in his hand and carefully put it into his arms.

"Good! I promise you! ”

After the sound of teeth fighting, the dust settled.
