On this day, Zhu Li and the others were walking between the bare rocks and the eroded rocks, and a scout who was responsible for detecting the movements of the Khitans suddenly flew to report that the Khitans who were miles away seemed to have suddenly fought with another wave of people, and the battle was very tragic. m.

When Zhu Li heard this, he was overjoyed, and then his face became solemn, and he asked, "Who is the one who fought with the Khitans?" Did you see clearly what direction they were coming from? ”

Hearing this, the tooth scout lowered his head and thought for a moment, stretched out his tongue, licked his chapped lips, and then continued: "General, who is coming, my subordinates don't know, but my subordinates can be sure that the other party is from the northwest. ”

"To the northwest, could it be the Uighurs?" Zhu Li frowned when he heard this.

Judging from the information given to him by Guo Qizuo, the herdsmen who wandered the most near the Great Gobi were the Uighurs, and it can also be said that the area around the Great Gobi was an uncrowned country of the Uighurs.

Zhu Li's speculation, listening to the scout's ears, made him quickly explain: "General, those people are definitely not Uighurs, and most of the Uighurs are familiar with their appearance, but the appearance of these people is somewhat peculiar. ”

"Exceptional?" Zhu Li raised her head suspiciously and glanced at him.

The scout didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly continued: "Yes, General, most of these aliens are red-haired and green-eyed, and a few of them are black-haired and black-eyed, if you don't look at the skin color, they are exactly the same as us Tang people. ”

The red-haired and green-eyed alien race, which is also mixed with the black-haired and black-eyed race, the alien race that conforms to this description, Zhu Li has only heard Guo Qizuo say one, that is, the Qikun people.

The race of Kun appeared in the annals of history, and the earliest record was during the Qin Dynasty, when they were exterminated by the Xiongnu once, and the name of Kun was no longer mentioned.

Inherited to the end of the Tang Dynasty, most of the people in the Central Plains called them the Gaz tribe, or the Gaz tribe.

As soon as he heard that it was a Kun person, Zhu Li couldn't help but become interested, and waved his big hand and said, "Let's go, let's go over and have a look." ”

Since it was Zhu Li's decision, the tooth soldiers were omnipresent, and the group immediately rode towards the place where the Khitan and the Kun people fought a few miles away.

The distance is closer, and the battle situation is clear at a glance.

The Khitan people in the Gobi, staggering for two or three months, looking for water sources, searching for food, may not be as good as Zhu Li and others, suffering from hunger, thirst, hunger, with such a mental state, how can it be the opponent of the Kun people, not to mention, this is a complete camel team of the elite of the Kun people.

Thousands of people were killed on the spot by the Kun people, and thousands more, along with Yanmu Jin and Yueli Xin, were all captured.

Seeing Zhu Li's arrival from a distance, the second daughter glanced at him viciously, and then lowered her head, not knowing what to think.

The appearance of Zhu Li's group of people also surprised these Kun people, but after the other party looked at them, there were several black-haired and black-eyed Kun people, with several red-haired and green-eyed warriors, who stepped forward with a puzzled expression.

One of them, the Kun people, walked straight out of the crowd and walked towards Zhu Li's side.

Zhu Li dismounted, waved his hand to signal that the other tooth soldiers did not need to follow, and also walked towards the Kun man alone, and when he got closer, three or four steps away, the black-haired and black-eyed man was fluent in Chinese, and arched his hand: "May I ask if you can be the Tang Army?" ”

Zhu Li didn't dare to slack off, and immediately gave up: "

Precisely. ”

"Ah, hahaha, you are Tang Jun, haha, sure enough, it is Tang Jun, we, we are our own people, our own people." As soon as he heard that Zhu Li was really Tang Jun, and Zhu Li and the others were dressed in the style of Tang Jun, no one had any doubts, and laughed happily.

Zhu Li couldn't help but wonder, the Kun tribe, he had heard Guo Qizuo's introduction, is one of the few ethnic groups in the north that is extremely close to the Tang Dynasty.

It is a half-farming and half-pastoralistic people.

During the Han Dynasty, the kingdom established by Qikun was conquered by the Xiongnu Shan Yu Maodun; Han Wu attacked the Xiongnu from afar, and a generation of famous generals Li Ling was defeated and surrendered, and was named the king of the right by the Xiongnu, and was ordered to manage the Kun people at that time.

Li Ling is a hero, he is in the Xiongnu heart of the homeland, and most of the local Kun people are influenced by Li Ling, and they are also interested in the Han Dynasty; Later, the Kun clan, unable to bear the oppression of the Xiongnu, united with the Ding Ling clan at that time to resist the rule of the Xiongnu.

At that time, it was Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty who was in power and devoted himself to the Northern Expedition, and the Han Dynasty finally defeated the Xiongnu, the Qikun clan, and the descendants of Li Ling, which got rid of the rule of the Xiongnu.

During the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, Kunshan came to the dynasty, claiming to be the descendant of Li Ling, and also recognized the relatives of Emperor Taizong, but achieved a good story, in their words, the Tang Dynasty is their brother state, they and the royal family of the Tang Dynasty, from the common ancestor Li Ling, how can they not be friendly and mutually helpful.

So when he heard that Zhu Li admitted that he was Tang Jun, this black-haired and black-eyed man would be so happy.

Li Ling may be very unfamiliar to everyone, but when it comes to his grandfather Li Guang, everyone should be familiar with it, yes, Li Ling is Li Guang's grandson.

Li Ling's surrender to the Xiongnu did leave a lot of descendants, and the Li Mu clan of the Later Zhou Taishi was one of them, and in the Kun clan, those black-haired and black-eyed Kun people were also descendants of Li Ling.

"Hey, the little general of the Tang Dynasty, in Xia Li Han, the son of heaven of your Tang Li family, and Li are from a common ancestor." Li Han was very enthusiastic, with a kind of self-familiar kindness, as he spoke, he took two steps forward, came to Zhu Li's side, and reached out to hug Zhu Li's shoulder.

Li Han had no scruples, Zhu Li naturally couldn't lose his share, and said calmly when he heard this: "Haha, it turned out to be Brother Li, I am fortunate to meet today, little brother Zhu Li, I am very honored; It's just that the two women in the Khitan are the leaders of the thieves pursued by the younger brother, but now they are captured by the eldest brother, and they don't know what to do. ”

Zhu Li is so calm, but also looks at people, history proves that Qi Kun, and later Zhgas, Brut, etc., no matter what the Central Plains people call them, these people are indeed heart-to-heart to the Central Plains, and they have always been very friendly.

Such a friendly alien race to the Han people is very rare in history, which can only show that Li Ling deserves the reputation of a single hero, he has passed away for so long, but the younger generations have always adhered to the will and dare not forget.

If it weren't for the deception, Li Ling might be able to leave a more wonderful mark in history, at least he would never forget his roots, and even in later generations, there are many people who can't do it.

"Brother refers to those two Khitan women?" Li Han glanced back at Yan Mujin and Yue Lixin, then turned back, looked at Zhu Li with a surprised expression, and wondered.

Zhu Li did not doubt him, and nodded seriously, "Exactly, these two people are the wives and dependents of famous Khitan generals, and this time they led their troops to attack Fengzhou, and they were broken by the younger brother, and they pursued them all the way here, just to capture the two alive." ”

"Raw

Capture? Could it be that the little general can't take a fancy to the two? "It's no wonder that Li Han is suspicious, whether it is Yan Mujin or Yue Lixin, they are rare beauties.

Moreover, the two of them are just the leaders of the rout, and now they have fled into a Jedi like the Gobi, if they are a little sensible, they will never rashly lead their troops to chase here, this is not a place for people to stay, and the army enters here, and there is a danger of capsizing at any time.

Zhu Li was stunned when she heard this, and fell in love with Yan Mujin and Yue Lixin, where did this start?

In terms of feelings, he is still worried about the affairs of Yu Chijin and Wang Yueyao, where does he have the heart to attract bees and butterflies?

The ancients, the orders of their parents and the words of the matchmaker, in the eyes of outsiders, whether it is Yu Chijin or Wang Yueyao, they must be his women.

But what about the real situation?

Zhu Li didn't even hold the little hands of these two once, for Yu Chijian, he was really tempted, but for Wang Yueyao, he has always treated the other party as a "colleague".

At the end of the year, Zhu Li's parents strictly ordered him to get engaged to Wang Yueyao first, but he didn't agree, because he knew that although Wang Yueyao was beautiful, loved by everyone, and flowers bloomed, it didn't touch his heart.

What is love, in his understanding, making soup with his own hands and talking about the sunset with each other, this is his simple concept of love.

Some people say that since he doesn't have Wang Yueyao in his heart, why didn't he refuse in front of his parents' orders?

What era is this, this is the Tang Dynasty, the era of the feudal dynasty, this era, rejecting a woman, have you ever thought about how the other party will deal with herself?

To put it bluntly, once Zhu Li refuses, Wang Yueyao will become the laughing stock of others, and at worst she will suffer the difficulty of destruction, such a consequence, does he dare to say his refusal, it is not a refusal, but murder.

Love is not sleeping in the same bed, but the heart is pretending to be someone else; It's not you and me, but each has its own selfishness; Love is as long as there is you, there is no room for children, the other party is the world, the other party is all, and they are in the same boat through thick and thin.

This is the true love that Zhu Li understands, as for other explanations, is that love? At least Zhu Li doesn't think so.

As for saying that he fell in love with Yan Mujin and Yueli Xin, it was a matter of no shadow at all, Zhu Li couldn't help but lose his mind when he heard Li Han's words, he didn't know why Li Han said this, which eye he could see it, it was really inexplicable.

However, his stunned expression made Li Han give him an ambiguous look, shook his big hand, patted Zhu Li's shoulder vigorously and said: "Haha, there have been clouds since ancient times, 'My Fair Lady and Gentleman are good', Brother Zhu Li don't be embarrassed, for your brother, just give these two Khitan beauties to your brother, haha." ”

As the saying goes, there is nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it, Zhu Li chased all the way north and bravely entered the Gobi, just to capture the two Khitan daughters, but he has never been able to succeed.

Now because of a beautiful misunderstanding, Li Han boldly offered the two of them with both hands, if he refused, it would be hypocrisy and hypocrisy.

"Then thank you, Brother Li." Zhu Li hurriedly thanked him, as for explaining whether he liked the two of them, it didn't matter now, the important thing was that the second daughter was there.

"Polite, polite, it just so happens that these two women are also captives for their brothers, since their brothers like it, how can they not be beautiful as adults." Li Han waved his hand, not caring about the authentic way.
