"Great Khan, this snow disaster, the cattle and sheep in the clan have frozen to death seriously, and we have lost too much!

There may not be enough food for winter this year! "In Dingxiang City, in the Jieli Palace, a Turkic general spoke.

Jieli threw away the unfinished sheep bone in his hand, picked up the big wine glass in front of him and drank it all!

"What do you do? The national teacher went south and unfortunately died in Chang'an, is it possible that my great Turk has no capable people? ”

At this time, a gray-haired Turkic veteran spoke, "Great Khan, in previous years, when we were short of food, we all went south to rob the Han people, and then we exchanged it with Wang Junkuo in Youzhou, and now that Wang Junkuo is dead, then there is only a way south!" ”

Jieli's face was gloomy, he looked up at the veteran, and then without everyone reacting, he grabbed the wine glass in front of him and smashed it towards the veteran!

"Raiding south? Who goes? Are you going?

It's as stupid as a pig!

Last year, we lost nearly half of our sons, and this year Yunzhou has lost 5,000 and Chang'an has lost 3,000!

Are the Han people easy to fight? What should I do if I can't beat it?

We don't have to wait for the snow disaster, we will be chased by the Han people to exterminate the race, do you understand? ”

Everyone looked at Jieli and was furious, but no one dared to refute it, after all, what the Great Khan said was reasonable!

At this time, another old man spoke, "Great Khan, I heard that there are also livestock frozen to death in the southern Tang Dynasty, and the secret report says that they are not worried about this!" ”

"Oh? Is there such a thing? The south has been suffering from drought for several months, and we should be worse than we are short of food!

You tell me in detail! Jieli asked with a shrewd glint in his eyes.

"After a detailed investigation by my subordinates, I learned that they had a good way to preserve meat, and it was said that they could use a special method to preserve meat for half a year and still eat it!

It's just that we can't afford this method, it's very expensive, I heard that it is coated with snow salt and then marinated to dry!

If nothing else, we can't afford snow salt! ”

Jieli stood up and kicked down, "What's the use of useless methods?" ”

At this time, the veteran from before spoke again, "General A's method is very reasonable, and the old minister has an idea to get money to buy snow salt!" ”

"Speak, speak well, forgive you for your innocence!"

"Last year, the Tang envoy came to my Turks to discuss the wool business, and then the two countries had a bad relationship, and the matter was never mentioned again!

However, the surrounding countries began to trade with the Han people early, and the northern grasslands were affected by this heavy snowstorm, as if they heard that people had money and grain to survive the winter!

It should be stained with the light of selling wool!

So, Great Khan, we can be like everyone else, go and sell the wool to the Tang Dynasty! So that there will be money and food to survive the winter! ”

You!

Jieli took a few steps and wanted to kick again, but his feet were raised, and he still didn't kick down, because he knew that everyone thought so about selling wool!

And he did it by relying on his own prestige, and he didn't explain it to others, and even if he did, it is estimated that a large number of people did not believe it!

Now his solution is a good idea, but it is just a way to quench his thirst!

"Great Khan, the words of the old general are reasonable! We can talk to Datang about business!

They love wool so much, I have so much grassland, they must be willing to buy it! ”

For a while, the palace hall was full of discussions!

"That's it! Ben Khan knows, so send Tukro there!

Talk to Datang well, negotiate as soon as possible, and buy salt and grain when we have the opportunity, we don't have much time! ”

The imagination is beautiful, the reality is cruel, Datang is also short of food this year, although doing business with the Turks can make a lot of money, but His Majesty Li Er is obviously not a good person, and promised to buy Turkic wool, but it will not be until after the spring next year!

When General Tukro brought the news back to the Turks, the Turks were scolding, all of them were scolding the Han people for being insidious, and more in their hearts they said that it was Jieli who caused it today!

Half a month later, the Turks suffered from heavy snow that had not been encountered for many years, and the disaster had covered half of the area of the Turks, and Jieli could no longer sit in Dingxiang, although Dingxiang was relatively prosperous and comfortable in his business, but as a promising monarch, he should still be with his people in the time of disaster!

Returning to the Eastern Turkic royal court in the north, Jieli looked at all his subordinates, all of whom were the leaders of various tribes, and did not speak with a gloomy face!

"Great Khan, up to now, thirty percent of our cattle and sheep have frozen to death, and the people are worried about this year's food, and it is expected that at least one percent of the people's rations will become a problem!

This is not counting the huge snowstorm this year, many poor people will not be able to withstand the cold and freeze to death! Tukro said sadly.

"Great Khan, we must dispose of the frozen livestock as soon as possible, otherwise if we attract the Great Devil, we will be in a dilemma for people and animals!

The Tang people were reluctant to sell us snow salt that could process meat, so we had to burn and bury these frozen livestock in the old way! A middle-aged leader spoke.

The Great Devil of the Northland, which only the people of the grasslands call it, is actually the plague! Generally, the frozen cattle and sheep are not dealt with well, and when the weather warms up, the plague is scattered, first of all, the livestock that endanger the grassland are inexplicably killed in batches, and the serious ones will also be transmitted to people, causing the emergence of human plague, in the grassland, the big devil is definitely a big killer, a big killer of the extermination!

Hearing this person's reminder, Jieli had a hateful look in his eyes, good! Datang, Li Shimin, since you don't give you a way to live, then everyone shouldn't think about it!

"No, we don't burn landfills this year!

Send people, be careful to move all the frozen dead livestock that can't be eaten to the southern border!

Since we Turks are afraid of the Great Devil, he Datang must also be afraid, they don't give us a life to buy and sell, then don't think about it! ”

Everyone looked at Jieli Khan at this time, and they all felt a chill down their spines, but there were also those who were impulsive and irritable, shouting that the Khan was wise!

"Great Khan, wouldn't this be inappropriate, in case the Great Devil is introduced, our people will also be in danger of being infected!" The veteran Turkro was worried!

Jieli shook his head, "No, no, no, we won't, after throwing all the livestock carcasses to the south, we will move our clan to the north, and this time, our food is insufficient, leaving the old and weak to go to the south to confuse the Han people, don't let them find out about our northward migration!"

Hum! This is Ben Khan's kindness, so he didn't use knives against them, if in the past, in such a disaster year, this group of old and weak people is the object of Ben Khan's slaughter!

What's the use of keeping things that don't create wealth and only consume food?

Whoever dares to chase after him will be killed!

Who dares to reveal our whereabouts, there is no mercy! ”

Hearing this order, everyone looked at each other, and many people were a little unbearable, but no one came out to object!

It is an ancient tradition to kill the old and weak and save food and grass on the grassland, and everyone does it!

It's just that this time it's a big devil for the south again, and it's throwing the old and weak over, I'm afraid that if one is not good, the south will be the big devil of the whole country!

This is Zhao Deyan is dead, if he doesn't die, he should come out to stop Jieli's crazy move, and the war can be controlled, but in case this plague breaks out in full swing, the grasslands are now doing business with the Tang Dynasty, where can the Turks flee to?

Your support is my strength!

The outbreak continues today, please support us!
