Kudulu didn't know that there was such a secret behind last year's Leaf Shattering War. He stared at the car with wide eyes, lest he miss every word he said. Suluk and the detachments guarding Kudulu also held their breath and listened.

"With my help, Ling Zun and Abu? Governor Muslim caught the line. I don't know exactly how we negotiated it. In mid-August, after the Tang army arrived in the Suyeshui River Valley, General Qi Yad ordered me to send an army of 20,000 men, full of baggage and camouflage, to sneak through the country of Bakhana, and hide in the mountains and forests south of Yezhi City, ready to meet Ling Zun. ”

Kudulu's words made Kudulu nod slightly, because he knew that Father Khan had indeed considered going east in the early days of the Broken Leaf War. Break through, go to Suqing Canyon, and go south to Yezhicheng.

At that time, he was still puzzled, because the road to the south was particularly rugged, and the Turquoise people who broke through the siege would definitely suffer countless casualties if they walked hundreds of miles of mountain roads without baggage supplies. But Father Khan said that someone would answer.

"That Dou Zhongjie is very talented and sparse, except for being like a howling hound and flattering in front of the Tang people, he is useless." Na Cha Nose sneered, "I have 20,000 soldiers under my command who have passed through the border of Bahanna, and he knows nothing. ”

Although Khudulu had never been to the country of Pakhana, he had heard from his father Khan that the capital of the country of Nabahana was located in the Ferghana basin southwest of the city of Broken Leaves.

The Fergana Basin is surrounded by mountains, and only to the west is a flat mountain pass washed out by the Pearl River. The kingdom of Bakhana had built a military town on the mountain pass, called Kuzhan.

More than ten years ago, there was a dispute between the Shi Kingdom and the Bahanna Kingdom, and they attacked the city of Kuzhan and occupied the fertile pastures in the Kuzhan Pass and the surrounding areas. In front of the Stone Kingdom, the country of Bakhana was suddenly in an embarrassing situation with no danger to defend, which is also the root cause of the continuous disputes between the two countries in recent years.

Therefore, it is not difficult for the stone team to sneak through the Kuzhan Pass and sneak through the mountain trail on the edge of the Fergana Basin.

"It's a pity that a certain move, although he can hide it from Dou Zhongjie. But because of the mobilization of troops and horses, he could not avoid the eyes of the old thief. Na Che nose said hatefully: "After the old thief detective heard the movements of the soldiers, he sent someone to report urgently to the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, resulting in the whereabouts of our army being mastered by the Beiting Army. The failure of our army's labor is still a trivial matter, but Ling Zun failed to break through in the end, isn't this a sin caused by Qu Le's old thief? ”

Before he finished speaking, the sound of fighting in the palace gradually stopped. A moment later, Qu Le, the vice king of the Shi Kingdom, with his silver hair scattered, was escorted out by Bakut, the ten-commander of the detachment army with red eyes and high spirits. The rain washed over the face of the king, and the dignity of the past and the embarrassment at this time formed a stark contrast.

"Old thief, the Tang Army wants to destroy our country, and you even have an affair with them, ready to raise troops to overthrow me, and respond to the Tang Army, your crime can be punished!" Na Ju Che Nose Shi walked up to Qu Le and said condescendingly.

"Haha, the Tang Army wants to destroy our country!!" Qu Le, who was covered in blood, laughed wildly in the thunderstorm: "A hundred years later, sweat and green will be loaded: those who destroy the stone country, that will be the nose of the car!" ”

"Nonsense! I have worked hard to be lonely, endure humiliation, and want to strengthen the stone country. You don't say anything about it, but you dare to slander me! The chariot was so angry that he raised his leg and kicked Qule over.

"Ahem, ahem!" With ten percent of his strength on his feet, Qule, who had fallen upside down in the blood, spat out a mouthful of blood and three teeth, and the muddy blood stained his clothes with a fishy stench.

After listening to Na Kuche Nose Shi's words, Kudulu originally hated Qu Le. But at this moment, seeing him like a dying old dog, lying in a pool of filthy blood, he was also a little unbearable.

"I know you have the ambition of an eagle, the ambition to dominate the river, and the will to not give up. But you were wrong, wrong from the beginning. Qu Le stood up with great effort and shouted with all his might: "The land in the river, which seems to be vast, is sandwiched between the Tang Dynasty, Mobei, Tubo and Dashi, and is destined to be a battlefield for the competition of powerful countries. Between the four giant beasts, whether it is Turgish or Shiguo, they all have to rely on the strong to survive. Looking at the four directions, the great food is greedy, the Tibetan is trapped in the plateau, and the Mobei surrenders to the Tang Dynasty. Only Datang, with strong national strength and generous governance, not only does not extort or be harsh, but also respects my customs and protects my people. Since I am destined to take refuge in one side, I would rather choose Datang than succumb to the big food that forces us to convert and pay taxes. ”

"The big food is close at hand, and the fine ride is just around the corner! Datang is thousands of miles away, and an expedition takes months. Isn't it wrong for you to go far and near? Na Ju Che Na Shi was not convinced.

"Haven't you read the history books of the Han people?" Quler smiled contemptuously and asked in a loud voice.

"History books?" Na Juche was stunned, not understanding what Qu Le's headless words meant.

"'Whoever commits a strong man, although he is far away, will be punished!' Although the Tang Dynasty is far away, there has never been a shortage of Chen Tang, Ban Chao, and Li Guangli and other people who destroyed the country. At this moment, haven't the armies of Anxi and Beiting already arrived in the Suye River Valley! The kingdom of stone will be destroyed by your ambitions!! Qu Le cried bitterly and said: "I wanted to put you under house arrest, and then go to the Tang Army camp to take the blame to save the people of Shiguo, but you still attacked first." God of Light, are you going to abandon the Stone Kingdom? Why does your brilliance no longer favor the pious people of the Stone Kingdom? ”

After Qu Le finished speaking, a dazzling lightning bolt suddenly split out in the dark night, and the rumbling thunder that followed seemed to tell everyone what is called "Tianwei Rumbling" and what is called "Although it is far away, it will be punished"!

Quler's words silenced Na Cha Nose. Kudulu thought of his father Khan's feelings about the fate of Tuqishi, and thought of what his sister had said in Tingzhou, and he also pondered.

"No roots in the wilderness? Chase the nectar, and the horseshoe marks. At this time, the snow is faceless, and the eagle is lonely. Towards the east of Guishuang, the evening to the river of the tun. Step on the river of broken leaves and close the door of Guzang. Woohoo play! I have 10,000 gold Polo, and I even entered Shazhou for a song. The reed pipe is popular for 4,300 miles, and the grass is green and the temples are colored. Don't teach to break to death, bend over the wind more. Golden peach stone honey Persian embroidery, white jade purple deer wine. Changing to welcome the Han generals 30,000 Jia, the cold August condensed and fought fiercely. Slaves are like grass and grass are like slaves, dare to look at the grace of heaven and give a tiger talisman? Ning didn't know that the yellow sand buried all the tulips, and he was pitiful for Zhaowu Jiu's surname Hu. When everyone was silent, Qu Le, who was full of leaky air, suddenly hummed a ballad.

"Song of Wind and Grass!" Kudulu heard that this was a song sung more than 20 years ago, when Da Shi went east into the river, the residents of Kangguo who were displaced by the war were looking forward to the Tang army's rescue.

Khudulu heard from his father Khan that when Sulu Khan, the great hero of the Tuqi Shi, marched out of the Suye River valley to defend against the great cannibals, he heard the Kang people who had fled their homes sing this song. At that time, the Sulu Khan stayed in Ma for a long time, and after listening to the whole ballad, he burst into tears and said: "Life is like the wind, and the servants are grass, and all the people are suffering." When will you walk against the wind and no longer bend your waist! ”

Many Shi Guo soldiers behind Na Ju Che Shi sobbed after hearing the familiar "Song of Wind and Grass". For more than 100 years, the sufferings suffered by the nine surnamed Zhaowu have been exhausted by this song, and every Sogdian who hears this song cannot help but cry.

"Old thief, when he is about to die, he dares to disturb the hearts of our army, it is really hateful!" Seeing that his soldiers were in turmoil, he rebuked angrily.

"That is the heart of the army, the heart of the people, and the heart of heaven! Can you and I change it? Hurry up and get lost and surrender to the Tang Army, so that Shi Guofang has a glimmer of life! Küler fell to his knees in a sea of blood and pleaded.

"Old thief, if you can borrow the power of the wind, the fluffy grass will also ascend to heaven. I just want to use the big cannibalistic west wind to rise to change the predicament of Shiguo being bullied. It's a pity that you still can't understand my hard work when you are dying! The car roared angrily, and the features on his face were distorted.

"Alas, you are going to bring Shiguo into a desperate situation after all!" Qu Leding stood up in a hurry of raindrops: "You and I are right and wrong, and we have our own history books to judge." It's just that the millions of people surnamed Shiguo and Zhaowu Jiu are pitiful, they are unexplained and involved in the war, who can have mercy? ”

"Old thief, don't pretend to be compassionate here. Do you think I don't know? Aren't you vice kings trying to suppress us all the time and monopolize the power of the Stone Kingdom? Why do you use these high-sounding words as an excuse? Na Juche said disdainfully.

"The benevolent see the benevolent and the wise see the wise, and in the eyes of the unbenevolent and unwise, it is naturally all filth." Quler shot back coldly.

"Old thief, at this moment, it's useless to talk more!" The thunderous Naju roared: "You want to plot against my men, and you still have your eyes on the soldiers who are loyal to me. But you didn't realize that I wasn't alone! ”

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly pulled out his scimitar and slashed it away. Splashes of blood and raindrops mingled and disappeared without a trace in a moment. Only the redder sea of blood on the ground reminded people of what was happening.

"Old thief, die with your fallacy!" "If you still don't think you're wrong, just keep your eyes open in hell and see how I lead the Stone Kingdom to become stronger and stronger." ”

Kudulu didn't expect that the car nose Shi actually killed Qu Le with his own hands, and he was a little stunned. Suluk clenched his long knife and guarded it firmly in front of Kudulu.

Na Che Shi coldly wiped the residual blood on the knife on the corner of his clothes, and then put the knife back into the sheath: "There is a special duty of Lao Hudulu." I have ordered the baggage required by your troops to be sent to the camp outside the city. Tomorrow you will be able to set off to join General Ziyad. ”

"Thank you, King!" Kudulu tried his best to calm down the turmoil in his heart, and replied in a deep voice.

"Could I please tell General Ziyad that the Che Nose is willing to use Tuozhi City and himself as bait to help Abu? Governor Muslim annihilated the Don Army! After saying that, he turned around and left, not looking at Qule's body and the corpses everywhere.

Suddenly, there was another flash of lightning in the sky, and the body of Küller, lying in the sea of blood, was illuminated by electric light. Kudulu felt that Qu Le's face was full of helplessness and unwillingness.

"Life is like the wind, servants are grass, and all the people are tormented. When will you walk against the wind and no longer bend your waist! Kudulu couldn't help but hum the tune of "Song of Wind and Grass" and hummed the emotion of Sulu Khan. For the first time since leaving Tingzhou, he questioned what he had done......

Most of the soldiers attached to the detachment did not know where the song hummed by His Royal Highness came from, nor did they know why Kudulu suddenly hummed a ballad. Therefore, after Kudulu finished humming, they just looked at each other, but they didn't know what to do.

"Your Highness, what should we do next?" Suluk, who is currently the highest-ranking member of the army, asked in a low voice.

"What's next?" Kudulu smiled bitterly: "The wind is strong and the grass is light, at the moment, we can only choose to rely on the big cannibal." Go out of the city and return to the camp, and tomorrow set off to the south to build the city and join General Qiyad! ”

When Kudulu turned to leave, Suluk, who had never had a good impression of the Great Cannibal, silently followed behind His Royal Highness the Special Service, and pondered: "The Great Cannibal West Wind, can it really help that Juche Nose Shi soar?" The Turgish people are weaker weeds than the Stone Kingdom at the moment, how can they survive in the wind? When will the great cause of restoration be realized? ”

In the deep night, the only thing that answered Suluk's worries was the boundless rain curtain and the "Song of Wind and Grass" that still lingered in his ears.
