Chapter 228 Return to the Siege of the City, Su Hudong!

Promote trade, strengthen exchanges and ethnic integration, attract Hui merchants to enter the country, and order homeless people or landless peasants to enter the territory of Hui to open up wasteland.

In Zhang Xuan's view, there are many displaced people in the Tang Dynasty, if they can immigrate out of the country, and then cooperate with the Hui Hui to implement unified management, pioneer on the edge of the green abyss in the Hui territory, and gradually establish many towns where Han and Hui people live together, in the short term, it will prosper the Longshuo economy and solve the problem of food shortage, and in the long run, this will lay a solid foundation for the assimilation of the Hui Hui.

This is the same as the almost crazy idea, that is, Zhang Xuan, a traverser from modern civilized society, dares to have.

In Zhang Xuan's view, perhaps this time Ge Le was "captured" by Guo Yang, and it was the best opportunity for him to gain a firm foothold in Longshuo and open up the situation.

In the middle of this, Gele, the prince of Hui, became an important figure, and Zhang Xuan naturally showed favor to him with great courtesy.

In Gele's view, Zhang Xuan is so powerful and high-position, but he does not have the frame of the Tang magnates, he is so approachable, and he shows great goodwill and friendly attitude towards himself and Hui.

Gele was extremely moved. , secretly made up his mind in his heart, after returning to Huifu, he would immediately say that his father Khan would go to Lingzhou to meet Zhang Xuan in person, and establish a stronger alliance and friendly relationship with Datang.

Gelerche bone force Pero is different. Guli Peiluo only hopes for the stability of the Hui people, with the help of the power of the Tang Dynasty to deter the Tibetans and Turks, and maintain the status quo.

Ge Le had great ambitions, yearning for the Tang Dynasty's ruling model of dividing states and counties and centralizing the imperial court, and even more envied the life mode of the people of the Tang Dynasty who rested at sunrise and sunset. In his heart, if the Hui people can also realize the fixed situation of urbanization and villageization of the Tang people, and no longer chase nomadic migration, the national strength of the Hui will increase several times.

The banquet of the two was accompanied by Zhang Xun and Fugu Huaien. When Fugu Huaien learned that this strong man was actually the Hui prince Gele, he was shocked on the spot, and secretly said that he was lucky.

If he let this Gele lose his life in his Shuofang City, not only will he become an enemy of the Hui clan, but he will also accept the questioning from the Tang Dynasty.

The feast was in a joyous mood from the afternoon until nightfall.

It's just that when the feast is about to disperse, a loud rumbling sound suddenly came into everyone's ears, and then the sound of horses neighing, knives and knives, and the shouts of personnel running were constantly intertwined, and it became a mess in an instant.

He had been leading the army for many years and had a lot of experience, and he immediately heard that this was the movement of a large army.

His face changed suddenly, Huo Ran got up and hurried to Zhang Xuan, "Metropolitan Governor, the last general will go and see what's going on." ”

Zhang Xuan nodded, his expression calm.

Zhang Xun also followed.

Gele frowned, vaguely feeling that something was wrong. Shuofang City is located on the border between the Tang Dynasty and the Hui Dynasty, and it is a relatively large military city in addition to Xiazhou.

Could it be that Ge Le's heart was excited, and he suddenly looked up and saw Zhang Xuan looking at him with a smile, and couldn't help but feel a little frightened and embarrassed.

After the film, Fugu Huaien hurriedly walked in and reported in a deep voice, "Dadu Governor, it's not good, the Hui people raised a large army to attack Shuofang, and now Shuofang City has been surrounded. ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Gele.

The Hui people risked the war with the Tang Dynasty and raised a large army to attack the siege of Shuofang, naturally in order to rescue the prince Gele.

The corners of Gele's mouth trembled, and he bowed down in fear, "Governor, Gele is guilty of capital crimes, Gele will go out of the city......"

Zhang Xuan smiled indifferently and waved his hand, "His Royal Highness Gele doesn't have to be like this," "This official understands very well. As long as Hui Hui does not offend our border people and retreats, the official will not be guilty of the past. ”

"General Fugu, order your troops and horses not to act rashly, just guard the city gates."

Fu Gu Huai said respectfully, "Yes, the last general will obey the order"

Tonight's moonlight is bright, the sky is full of stars, and the sky and the earth are bright.

Zhang Xuan walked up to the head of Shuofang City surrounded by Gele, Fugu Huaien and others, and looked down, and the black pressure outside Shuofang City was full of Hui cavalry, and the smoke and dust were rolling, rolling all the way from the foot of the mountain.

The Hui cavalry stood in a solemn formation, the scimitars in their hands glistening coldly, and the torches flickering, making the sturdy heads full of pigtails stand out in the night sky.

Fugu Huaien gasped, turned back to look at Gele and said with a playful expression, "Your Highness Gele, your ministry has dispatched nearly 10,000 horsemen, if it weren't for His Highness Gele who is safe and sound so far, it seems that my Shuofang City will not be able to save this time." ”

Gele was embarrassed, smiled bitterly, and didn't dare to say anything.

"The Metropolitan Governor......" Fugu Huaien asked respectfully.

Zhang Xuan was silent.

He leaned on his body and quietly looked at the orderly formation of the Huifu cavalry under the city that could not be seen, and his heart was taken aback, but at the same time he was a little happy.

This is a very powerful army, almost all of them are cavalry, if it can be controlled in his hands, what is an An Lushan?

The Hui people all over the mountains shouted and shouted, and the shouts shook the sky.

In the middle of the entire Hui formation, suddenly the Hui cavalry retreated like a tide, flashing a path.

Two teams of young and beautiful female soldiers galloped out with the Huifu military flag embroidered with a cyan hideous wolf's head that hunted and flew in the wind; And a Hui woman holding a scimitar, wearing a big lapel, narrow sleeves, brocade edge and a belt of red Hui Sandpiper strong suit, combed dozens of slender hair on her head, and carried a big bow of gold silk behind her back, galloped out of the horse, and stopped more than 100 zhang away from Shuofang City.

The two groups of female soldiers lined up side by side, guarding behind her.

Unable to walk or stand because of his injuries, Gele sat in a car. He looked at the heroic and sassy leading female general in the city, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, it was his little sister Su Hudong.

Su Hudong not only escaped safely, but also moved a large army from Huifu, which was obviously with the permission of his father, Khan Guli Peiluo. It seems that the news that Su Hudong almost died and Gele was captured made Guli Peiluo very angry, and the whole country was shaken, and the country was ashamed.

Otherwise, Guli Peiluo would not have raised a large army to attack Shuofang City.

This is actually a desperate attempt by the first secretary in anger. If Gele died in the territory of the Tang Dynasty, the Hui people would capture Shuofang City, and then plunder the territory of the Tang Dynasty, officially declaring war with the Tang Dynasty.

Gele is the heir to the Khan throne that Guli Peiluo has cultivated for many years, and Gele was captured by the Tang Dynasty, which directly exposed the reverse scales of Guli Peiluo.

Moreover, Guli Peiluo was very angry. He asked himself that he had always been respectful to the Tang Dynasty, and he worshiped his subordinates every year, but he didn't expect Guo Ziyi's son to dare to lead troops to attack and kill his children. This clearly shows that he does not take hundreds of thousands of Hui tribes in his eyes, since this is the case, why should Guli Pei Luo grovel to Datang again?

The grassland people have their own blood.

Because of the situation, surrender to the Tang Dynasty, which is the national policy of Hui; But it doesn't mean that the Hui people can let the Tang people bully and invade. If the Tang army's behavior of squeezing the nomadic tribes and merchants in the past did not hurt the overall situation, then this time, Ge Le was captured by Guo Yang and Su Hudong was almost buried in the desert, which has caused a strong backlash in the Hui country.

This is an important factor in the strength of the bones. Although on the surface it is commanded by Su Hudong, in fact, Marshal Hui Demon Ge is hidden in the army, and he will take over the military power according to the situation.

Ge Le was immediately a little panicked, and secretly glanced at Zhang Xuan, who was standing on the edge of the city tower with his head held high and looking down.

Zhang Xuan's expression didn't change much, he just stared down with his hands behind his back and was silent, his face calm.

Under the city, Su Hudong inserted the scimitar upside down, raised his hand and lifted the big golden wire bow from behind, and shot 3 arrows at the city tower. The long, wool-embellished sharp arrows pierced the night sky, making a violent sound, and went straight to Zhang Xuan's position.

Su Hudong is good at shooting, and this archery technique has been guided by the grassland arrow god Duocuo. She could see at a glance that the young man who was guarded by many Tang generals seemed to be a big official.

Therefore, this arrow is a demonstration and a vent of private anger.

On the city tower, all the soldiers let out an exclamation, and the face of Hua Nu'er, who was standing beside Zhang Xuan, changed, and he flew up, his figure flashed on the eaves of the city tower, and he swept through the air, and then he knocked the arrow shot by Su Hudong and planted it on the pillar of the military flag with a buzz.

Ge Le's face changed greatly, and he was about to struggle to go over and ask Zhang Xuan for his guilt, but he heard Su Hudong's crisp and powerful shouts from the city

"Upstairs, the Tang army listened, quickly send my brother Gele out of the city, quickly bring that Guo Yang to justice, and I will retreat back to the army! If not, the army will attack and kill, the city of Shuofang will be broken, and the chickens will not be left."

Su Hudong's voice was as crisp as a silver bead falling on a jade plate, echoing in the night sky for a long time.

And in an instant, the nearly 10,000 Hui cavalry surged and shouted murderously: "Return the prince!" Return the Prince! Hand over Guo Yang! Hand over Guo Yang".

Above the city tower, the faces of Tang generals or soldiers are not very good-looking. The Hui people are fierce and marching under the city, and this is the first time.

Zhang Xuan stared at the faintly recognizable princess Su Hudong under the city tower, with a beautiful face but a somewhat unruly temperament, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. And it was this smile that made Ge Le, who had been secretly observing his face, feel relieved.

"Nanba" Zhang Xuan suddenly shouted, raised his hand and pointed to the city, "Shoot her banner for me"

"Obey" Nanwuyun flew up to the city tower, took a bow and arrow, and shot an arrow.

He didn't shoot Su Hudong's military flag, but he shot a Hui female pawn carrying the military flag.

The arrow burst out like lightning, and instantly hit the wrist of the female pawn who resisted the flag, and the female pawn screamed miserably, and the military flag in her hand overturned, and her person also immediately followed Ling, and almost fell off the horse.

The female guards exclaimed in surprise, escorting Su Hudong to retreat.
