Chapter 691: The Slaughtered Turtles

Ye Hua is a bit of a bad taste and cleanliness, he is too lazy to do it himself, and it is a very good idea to let a courtier kill the monarch's father, and he is happy to watch the play.

That envoy is a very honest person, in front of Ye Hua, trembling, very honest, will definitely obey orders, go, as long as you kill the Uighur Khan, you will be the new king!

In other words, it's a nominee.

The envoy slowly drew his sword, and the cold light shone brightly, there was no doubt that it was a divine weapon, and he peeked at the Uighur Khan King, and found that the other party was staring at him with angry eyes.

After a long time, the Uighur Khan slowly closed his eyes, raised his neck, and exposed his throat, looking like he was about to be killed.

Burst!

Blood splattered, and someone fell to the ground.

Ye Hua showed a look of surprise, it turned out to be the envoy who committed suicide, he cut his throat with a sword, he would rather commit suicide than kill the king, it's really funny!

Ye Hua looked at the Uighur Khan King and said with a smile: "It seems that you still have some means, or rather, you are quite popular, he actually doesn't dare to kill you, is it because he is too bold?" Do you want to find another one! ”

Between words. Ye Hua's gaze roamed the crowd, and every Uighur minister he targeted was so frightened that they buried their heads in their chests, praying that they would not be chosen......

At this time, the Uighur Khan suddenly spoke, and it was rare that he still knew some Chinese.

"Kill me, spare my people and ministers!" The Uighur Khan roared in a muffled voice, and his words were filled with grief and indignation, and grief and indignation to the extreme, were almost like a plea.

Ye Hua's eyes showed a hint of approval, "Listening to your words, it seems like an emperor's responsibility, but it's a pity that you are too stupid, and you killed someone who shouldn't be killed, and there is no reason for this lord to spare you!" But in order not to leave you alone, I will find you a few companions. ”

Ye Hua suddenly turned to the Uighur ministers and angrily reprimanded: "Whoever dares to kill the envoy of the Great Zhou, no matter who it is, must die!" Are there any of you who are willing to take the initiative to admit it and accompany your Great Khan to his death? ”

Ye Hua asked three times in a row, how many people are willing to do things that kill themselves!

After waiting for a long time, just when Ye Hua was a little impatient, two people really stood up in the crowd, they puffed up their chests, and said tragically: "We suggested that Your Majesty kill us, let us accompany Your Majesty to death!" ”

Ye Hua took a closer look, these were two martial artists who were not very old, and it seemed that their official positions were not very high, Ye Hua smiled indifferently, "Since you want to die, what else does Benjue have to say, come on!" ”

At the sound of an order, the soldiers rushed up, and Ye Hua gave them a look.

The soldiers immediately pounced on the remaining ministers, grabbed them all, and pushed them to the side of the Uighur Khan, where they lined up.

Ye Hua chuckled and said, "If the country is ruined and the family is ruined, you should go to hell!" If there is no loyalty left in my heart, there will be no reason to live! You people will go to hell with your Khan! ”

Those ministers were frightened, what kind of routine is this guy Ye Hua? We're willing to surrender, we didn't kill anyone, spare us, right?

No matter how much they pleaded, it was useless, and the hussars in charge of the execution took up their swords and cut off the heads one by one, and then hung their heads on the city wall, which looked like a string of wind chimes from a distance.

The head of the dead messenger had been recovered, and the whole city had been searched, but no body could be found.

With a wave of his hand, Ye Hua's iron horse stood out, stepping on the corpses of the Uighur Khan King and many ministers, and the war horses went back and forth three times, and all the corpses turned into a mess of flesh and mud.

The remaining two trembled and almost fell.

They finally understood the power of Da Zhou.

If a soldier dies, it will cost an emperor and so many ministers to compensate, and the lives of the Zhou people are really precious!

"Da Zhou has always been courteous and magnanimous, but if you offend the bottom limit of Da Zhou and hurt the people of Da Zhou, you will also be punished tenfold or 100 times, this is the rule of Da Zhou, I think you should be clear, right?"

"Clear, clear!" One of the slightly older ones, surnamed Ma and called Ma Yidu, knelt on one knee and said honestly: "We will definitely restrain the Uighur people, respect the orders of the Great Zhou, and never dare to disobey them!" ”

Ye Hua smiled with satisfaction, "Very good, I hope you are consistent with your words and deeds." ”

Ye Hua drove his horse into Gaochang City.

Walking in the city, Ye Hua was surprised.

After a hundred years of development in Gaochang, the Uighurs had shed some of their nomadic habits, they cultivated grains, they planted grapes, there were mills and wineries in the city, they also dug canals to divert water, irrigated the fields, and even had tall waterwheels.

They also grow cotton, and there are cotton spinning workshops in the city.

Surprisingly, the city has a well-developed business, with all kinds of merchants gathered, and there is a whole street full of merchants from other places.

There are more merchants coming and going from the south to the north, and there are more temples of various sects in the city, in addition to those major sects, even Manichaeism, Zoroastrianism, and shamanism can exist peacefully in Gaochang.

Walking around the city, Ye Hua's intuitive feeling was that Gaochang City was very prosperous and governed quite well, which explained why some people would rather commit suicide than kill the Uighur Khan with a butcher's knife.

He was a master of internal affairs, but not a wise monarch.

From the moment he chose to join forces with Black Khan, he was doomed to today's end.

From this, we can also see how fragile the political power in the Western Regions is.

In this land, it's not about doing well to survive.

Ye Hua decisively issued three orders, one of which was to tell all the people in the city that the Uighur Khan was bewitched by his ministers and became enemies of the Great Zhou.

Second, the original good governance should not be changed, the local customs should be respected, and the land and pasture should be owned by the cultivators, regardless of gender, and the land and pasture should be owned by the actual cultivators.

Third, there are still more than 100,000 Uighur troops who have not yet returned, and now they are recruiting the relatives of the soldiers and soldiers to lobby for the past if they can surrender. Stubborn resistance, a dead end!

……

Ye Hua has always been steady and ruthless, the first is to clean up people's hearts, the second is to win over allies, and the third is to disintegrate opponents.

Before the Uighur army could rush back to Gaochang, they had already been beaten by Ye Hua.

The envoy took more than 1,000 dependents and went directly to the Uighur army to persuade him to surrender.

At this moment, the Uighurs, retreating along the Tarim River, had just passed through Qiuzi, and there was still a long way to go from Gaochang.

At this moment, a group of cavalry crossed the mountains and broke into Qiuzi.

The long journey over the towering peaks is very laborious, so this group of people is very embarrassed, but anyone who underestimates them because of this will definitely suffer.

Among them, they are generally dressed in white robes, carrying sharp scimitars in their hands, and riding strong war horses.

Due to the survival on horseback for a long time, more or less, there are some looped legs, and it is obvious when you walk. Therefore, just by the way you walk, you can see who the real elite is.

In addition to the war horses, there were also camels that carried food for them, and when they were still about ten miles away from Qiuzi, a bearded man with a violent shoulder shook decisively drew a dagger and stabbed it into the camel's throat.

Thick camel blood was not a good quenching thirst, so he patiently peeled off the camel's skin, sliced the hump into thin slices, and stuffed it into his mouth. The others also came over to share it, munching on raw meat and their mouths full of blood.

The warm raw meat quickly restored their combat effectiveness, and as for the others, in their eyes, they were sick to their stomachs and nausea.

Unscrupulous, the bearded man jumped back on his horse and let out a strange cry, and the others followed suit, like a group of fierce hunters.

They pounced decisively on the turtles.

And Qiuzi is also one of the ancient countries in the past, although the city is not big, but it is full of life...... When these people entered, in an instant, the turtles became hell.

Killing, killing without stopping.

The scimitar passed through, and the corpses were everywhere, whether it was adults and children, or men and women, all of them could not escape, and in their eyes, it seemed that everyone deserved to die.

It wasn't enough to kill, they set fire to it.

The women and children who tried to escape were driven back by them and pushed into the fire.

Watching the big living people turn to ashes, they let out an arrogant laugh.

In this group of cavalry, there were obviously half of them, who were not dressed in the same way, and did not agree with the way of these beards. But there is no way, they can only follow the same trend and follow closely behind.

In just half a day, Qiuzi had been reduced to a scorched earth, and after the men had succeeded, they continued eastward with the booty on their captured horses and pursued the Uighur army......

"Please, save the turtles!"

The people of Qiuzi, who had escaped the poison, knelt before the Uighur army, begging them to return and fight the robbers who had fallen from the sky to protect their poor homeland.

Qiuzi was Uighur territory a few decades ago, and it was inhabited by Uighurs, so you can't die without help!

"Get out of here!"

The Uighur generals roared, "We don't have time to care if you live or die!" The Zhou soldiers are attacking Gaochang, and we must go to protect His Majesty the Khan! ”

Dozens of Qiuzi people kept kowtowing, completely useless.

The Uighur army marched forward without mercy.

In desperation, the Qiuzi people went crazy, and an old man rushed to the front of the war horse desperately, and the thin and withered old man was knocked away by the galloping war horse, and then countless horses' hooves stepped over him...... The old man died, and died a terrible death.

The rest of the turtles roared angrily, and they all rushed forward, and were soon overwhelmed by the horses...... The Uighur army was still marching forward, but those who still had a conscience closed their eyes, and all they were filled with the miserable roars and sad questions of the people...... Why don't you protect the turtles, who are being slaughtered!

Finally, a young knight wiped the tears from his eyes, resolutely turned his horse's head, and rushed in the direction of the turtle, and behind him, more and more people followed, and they gathered together, and the number reached almost ten thousand.

Even the Uighur commander was alarmed, and he was furious!

"Ignorant fools, those people are the Great Eclipse Cavalry, they are allies, they can help us deal with the Zhou soldiers!" He jerked his head back and said to one of his men, "Go, take your men and bring those fools back, and if they don't come back—kill them all!" He said viciously.
