Chapter 456: Iron-Blooded Tenderness

The day after Nan Jiyun led an army of 10,000 to escort Zhu Li back to Qarlu, Zhang Xuan's army of the Western Expedition was already slowly pressing on the Tuqi Shi territory under the command of Guo Ziyi. Zhang Xuan was unwilling to waste too much time on the Turgish people, so he decided to solve the problem of the Turgish people in the shortest time and with the most thunderous means.

Tuqi Shi seems to be very powerful, but in Zhang Xuan's heart, Tuqi Shi and the Great Cannibal are not of the same grade at all. [Search for the latest updates]

Ten days later.

Nan Jiyun led his army to the Khan's court in Qarluq. Ge Lulu Xinye Hu Tiejin led more than 10,000 cavalry to meet the Khan Court for dozens of miles, in the name of welcoming the princess, in fact, it was to give the Chinese army a face.

Although the Chinese army did not raise troops to attack the Qarluqs, it had already put great pressure on the Qarluqs. On the left side, there is the deterrence of the army of the Hui Khan, and on the front, there is the threat of Zhang Xuan's army of hundreds of thousands.

The dispute has reached the level of Ji Lie, and there are even signs of infighting.

Tiejin knew that his leader couldn't help but make a decision as soon as possible. A little slower, without even the need for the Chinese army to attack, the Qarluqs themselves would have annihilated themselves. The army of Qarluq is only a few tens of thousands, and once it is divided, the consequences will be unimaginable, and sooner or later it will be annexed.

On the day before Nan Jiyun and his army arrived, Tiejin finally turned the tide and led the Qarluq people to make a decision - to continue to be subordinate to the Chinese dynasty and send troops to help the Chinese emperor exterminate the Turkish.

It must be said that Tie Jin is a very intelligent person.

He knew the Turgish, the Great Cannibals, and the Han dynasty of the Central Plains, whether it was the Li Tang Dynasty before it, or the more powerful Chinese dynasty that it has now replaced.

Although the Turgish people are strong, they are not enough to dominate the entire Western Regions, because they do not have this strength. Just as he can wantonly plunder Beiting and other places, but he does not have the ability to stay for a long time and keep it for himself.

Although the Great Cannibal is powerful, the Great Cannibal has domestic disputes and civil strife, and it is difficult for the Great Cannibal to have the strength to take care of the Western Regions in a short period of time. That's not all, more importantly, Tie Jin has been to Dashi and dealt with the Dashi nobles, and knows that most of the Dashi nobles do not advocate attacking the Western Regions and occupying the Central Plains, because these regions are too far away from the Dashi mainland.

What the Great Cannibal is looking for is nothing more than the land of the Zhaowu Nine Surnames on the Green Ridge, because this is the gateway to the Great Food Empire. The main thing is to guard this portal, and the big cannibals will be at ease, and in the Western Regions under the green mountains, the big cannibals have no intention of getting involved.

In this way, the real ruler of the Western Regions is still the Chinese dynasty.

The Chinese emperor raised hundreds of thousands of troops to attack the Western Regions, and the destruction of the Turgish people was imminent.

Moreover, there are still Uighurs eyeing him, and he has no doubt that once he disobeys the will of the Chinese emperor, the Uighurs will do everything they can to attack Qarlu and replace him.

The Hui people are relatives of the Chinese emperor, and they are extremely powerful at the moment, far from being able to provoke the Qarluqs.

Therefore, it was a most sensible decision to make it to the point of public opinion. Otherwise, Nan Jiyun, the 10,000 army horses, would have to face the attack of the Qarluq cavalry, rather than meet it.

……

……

Nan Jiyun's army was stationed on the shores of Lake Ala. He had already received the news that Gelulu Ye Hu Tijin had personally led his troops out of the Gelulu Khan's court.

Although there were unknown risks, facing the slaughter of tens of thousands of Qarluq cavalry, Nan Jiyun and his 10,000 Shence army were not afraid. After the baptism of battle, especially through the counterinsurgency and the battle of Tibet, the morale of the Shence army is at a peak. This is the elite of the elite of the Chinese army, and it is also equipped with a large number of firearms, Nan Jiyun is convinced, he led his 10,000 cavalry to kill in and out of the territory of the Qarluqs, even if they can't destroy the Qarluq, but it is not a problem to retreat with their whole body.

This is the key to Zhang Xuan's daring to send Nan Jiyun, a 10,000-strong army.

It's early summer. The wind on the shore of Alahu Lake was cool and fresh, and Nan Jiyun held a spear in his hand, standing by the lake, looking at the beautiful scenery of the plateau lakes and mountains in front of him, slightly distracted.

A fragrant breeze blew by, and the sound of soft footsteps came.

Nan Jiyun didn't need to look back, he knew that it was Zhenli.

Nan Jiyun was silent.

Zhenli walked up to him lightly, her eyes flashing with a complex tenderness. She looked sideways at Nan Jiyun and said softly, "General Nan, this is already the territory of the Qarluqs, the general can put Zhenli here, and then the whole army will retreat to Bole just in case." ”

"If the Qarluq people have different intentions, the general will still have a little less ...... of 10,000," Zhenli sighed faintly.

Nan Jiyun didn't look back, and said lightly, "At the behest of His Majesty, I want to personally send Princess Zhenli back to Gelulu, but I haven't arrived at the destination at the moment, and I haven't handed over the princess to the Qarluq people completely, and a certain family can't retreat!" ”

A trace of worry flashed on her bright face, and after hesitating for a moment, she grabbed Nan Jiyun's arm and tugged, "The Qarluq people are about to arrive, and I am here, and I have arrived safely." The general retreated 50 miles, and as long as Li persuaded Tiejin, he would send someone to inform the general. ”

Nan Jiyun was grabbed by Zhenli, and his body was obviously stiff, but he didn't struggle, but slowly turned his head to look at Zhenli, and said lightly, "You can't convince Tiejin." Your Majesty said that the Qarluqs will be obedient, and they will be obedient. Even if he has a different heart, with the number of thousands of cavalry in Ge Lulu, there is still no one left! ”

As he spoke, Nan Jiyun had a strong sense of confidence and might.

"This 10,000 horsemen of a certain family is an invincible army, even if it can't exterminate Qarluq, but if you retreat with your whole body, no one in the world can stop it."

Zhenli fell silent for a moment.

Since the general is so stubborn, Zhenli will no longer persuade him...... Hey......" There was a faint sadness on Zhu Li's face, and she gave a deep salute, "Zhen Li thanks the general for taking care of her these days, and say goodbye, I guess there will be no fate to meet in the future, and I wish the general a bright future!" ”

Suddenly, she burst into tears and fell to her knees.

Nan Jiyun's serious face was unbearable, and his shoulders trembled slightly.

He is an iron man, a cold-blooded and ruthless iron man who fights on the battlefield, and never thought that he would be emotionally attracted to a woman of different races. Along the way, he escorted Zhenli back to Qarluq, and this almost fatalistic emotion grew stronger in his heart day by day.

But he knew his mission.

Even though Lili took the initiative to give him a hug last night, he endured it.

Zhenli wept at his feet.

The corners of Nan Jiyun's mouth twitched, she slowly leaned down, grabbed Zhenli's arm, and said softly, "You don't have to be sad, return to Gelulu, you are still the princess...... You and I have different identities, and there are some things that we can't do. ”

"Am I still a princess? Hehe......" Zhenli smiled sadly, "I've been captive for so long, will Tiejin still want me?" Besides, as long as the Qarluqs decide to submit and help His Majesty the Emperor exterminate the Turgish, the first one to kill will be me, the Turgish woman. ”

Nan Jiyun's face froze. His hands tightened, and he lowered his voice and said, "Since you know this, why do you want Your Majesty to send someone to send you back?" ”

"I am the princess of the Qarluqs, and I am the woman of the Turgish, and if I do not come back, where will I go? Moreover, His Majesty the Emperor has the heart to do this, how can a woman who is beautiful resist the power of heaven? ”

Nan Jiyun's palms trembled, and the hand that grabbed Li's arm suddenly let go weakly.

Long.

Nan Jiyun's face turned grim, he sat down slowly, held Li's trembling shoulders, and said softly, "Don't be afraid, if it's possible, I will protect you!" ”

"A certain ...... After the Turquoise is destroyed, a certain will beg His Majesty to reward you with a certain reward. ”

Zhenli was shocked, suddenly raised her head to look at Nan Jiyun's resolute face, and said in a trembling voice, "Is the general really willing to save Zhenli?" ”

"Do what I can." Nan Jiyun's hand tightened.

"I believe in the general. If she can save her life, she is willing to be a slave and a maid, waiting for the general. Zhenli was relieved, her whole body softened, and she collapsed in Nan Jiyun's arms.

Although the ten days from Hanhai City are short, they are the brightest years in Li's life. She almost fell madly in love with the general beside the Emperor of China, and Hu Nu's feelings came violently and would not be concealed. She actually didn't expect much, but she just hoped that before she died, she could have an overnight love with the man she liked, and she would have no regrets even if she died.

"I don't need a slave, I don't have a wife, if I can, I'll marry you." Nan Jiyun leaned over and said, ripped off her dress with a rude movement.

Once his heart was released, he no longer hid it, and the two of them hugged and rolled into the reeds by the lake, startling a few inexplicable water birds.

On the morning of the second day, Tiejin led his tribe to the shore of Alahu Lake to personally greet Nan Jiyun, the envoy of the Chinese Emperor and one of the five founding princes of the Chinese Dynasty in the Western Regions, and the general of the Shence Army.

Nan Jiyun's 10,000 Shence army cavalry lined up to treat each other. Looking at the Chinese cavalry with a fierce formation like a rainbow from afar, his heart was awe-inspiring, and he hurriedly stepped forward, smiled and took the initiative to start greetings.

"The general came from afar, Xiao Wang greeted him late, and asked the general to forgive his sins!" Tie Jin dismount and hug his fist.

Nan Jiyun also dismounted and hugged his fists in return, "Ye Hu is polite." At the behest of His Majesty, I will escort Princess Zhenli back to Qarluku and negotiate with Ye Hu to jointly send troops to exterminate the Turgish people......"

Nan Jiyun has no nonsense and is straightforward.

He was ready, if he refused to submit, he immediately led his army to rush over, and then retreated to Bole and waited for the emperor's army.

Tie Jin smiled awkwardly, "Your Majesty's edict has been issued, how dare Xiao Wang disobey?" Xiao Wang has mobilized all the troops and horses of Qarluq, ready to fight with the Chinese army to exterminate the Turks. Someone's coming. Set up a feast by the lake, and treat the king leniently to the general! ”

From beginning to end, Tie Jin didn't look at Zhenli who was standing on the side.

And in fact, as Zhenli herself speculated, Tiejin had already killed her. She was still second to being taken captive, but she was a Turgish, and she was the object of peace sent by Turgish, so she must be killed to show her sincerity in breaking with Turgish.

Sure enough, Tiejin sent someone to take Zhenli over, then waved his hand lightly, and shouted, "This woman is a Turk Shi person, and she has always had a different heart when she married into my Ge Lulu, come to someone, quickly kill her, and return her to Tuqi Shi!" ”

Several Qarluq soldiers fiercely pushed her to the ground, and began to wield scimitars on the spot, ready to kill people.

There are not so many rules for killing people of different races, and they are killed on the spot.

But as soon as the scimitar of a Qarluq soldier was swung up, he heard a bang on the ground, and his palm trembled, and the scimitar fell to the ground.

Not far away, beside Tie Jin, Nan Jiyun took a bow and led an arrow, and an arrow shot down the scimitar of the Qarlu soldier.

Tie Jin frowned, turned his head to look at Nan Jiyun Dao, "General, this woman is a Tuqi Shiren, Xiao Wang killed her to show his loyalty to His Majesty the Emperor, you are ......"

Nan Jiyun was silent, strode over, and leaned over to help Zhu Li up.

"Nan was ordered by the emperor to protect her, since Ye Hu returned to the imperial court, this woman will wait for His Majesty to fall. Someone come, take care of her, and wait for Your Majesty to dispose of it. ”

Several fierce Shence soldiers rushed over and took Zhenli down.

Ti Jin's eyes flashed, his brows furrowed, but he immediately eased up, and said with a smile, "Since this is the case, I will wait for Your Majesty to deal with it, just a woman who is a sudden horseman, not enough to worry about, not enough to worry about!" ”

There are dozens of women in the catty, so naturally they don't care about a woman who is riding a horse. He is not a fool, and he can vaguely see that the general of the Chinese Dynasty in front of him seems to have taken a fancy to this Li, and since this is the case, he is also happy to give a favor.

……

……

Three days later. The emperor's edict arrived, canonized Tiejin as the Shenguang Khan of Gelulu, and ordered Tiejin to lead the whole country to march west to attack the Turk Shi with the cooperation of the 10,000 divine forces of Nanjiyun.

Almost at the same time, Feng Changqing led 30,000 Anxi troops from Qiuzi to the north to attack the Turian Cavalry, coupled with Zhang Xuan's main army, the three-way army and horses approached the Turian Cavalry, and for a time the territory of the Turian Cavalry was full of wolf smoke.

Five days later. Nan Jiyun joined 50,000 soldiers and horses of Qarlu and fought the first battle with the cavalry of Alam and Turgish. The 50,000 soldiers and horses of the Tucai Shi encountered 60,000 coalition troops, and the 10,000 Shence army of Nanjiyun charged forward, and the rockets were vertical and horizontal, and they were unstoppable. After an hour of fierce fighting, the Turks threw down 20,000 corpses and fled in disarray, and the coalition was victorious.

The combat effectiveness of the Shence Army and the supreme power of firearms made the hearts of the Qarlu people tremble, and their thoughts of submission became even heavier. I can't imagine that if hundreds of thousands of Chinese troops are equipped with such earth-shattering firearms, then who in the world can stop them?

Feng Changqing also had a decisive battle with the Tuqi Shi people, and the Anxi army defeated the Tuqi Shi people at the tragic cost of thousands of dead and wounded.

At this time, Zhang Xuan's army was less than a few hundred miles away from Shattered Leaf City.

The destruction of the country and the annihilation of the tribe is just around the corner, and the Western Regions are shaken. The Fire Spitting Immortal never thought that Shi Tieqi, who had always been proud of himself, would be so defeated in front of the Chinese military horses.
