Chapter 111: Prelude II
Hearing the shout of Ulik, the chief of Chemo Zheko's guard, two people stood up among the people who were roasting the fire, an older man with a thin black face and about 30 years old, and he was followed by a tall young man with a pair of bull's eyes, who were dressed in the service of the Tuli Division.

The old black-faced man said, "Is this a warrior from the Tiele Tribe?" We are the emissaries of the Turkish. ā
When he saw that he had received the envoy from the Turkish, his task was accomplished, and he was overjoyed, and he came to them, turned over and dismounted. He grinned and said, "Great, my Great Khan sent me to pick you up, but I didn't expect to meet you here." ā
They introduced each other's identities, and they agreed to camp here tonight, and set off early tomorrow morning for the royal court of the Tiele Tribe. Afterwards, the envoys of the Turki tribe warmly invited them to eat barbecue and drink wine by the campfire.
The people of the Turkish-Turian tribe were very enthusiastic and kept urging them to drink. The banquet lasted for a long time, and most of the cavalry of the Tiele tribe were dizzy.
Zhou Pan, who pretended to be the envoy of the Tuli Ministry, was very depressed: Wu Lik was too good to drink, he didn't drink too much at all, Zhou Pan drank fake wine mixed with water, and he was a little dizzy, and Wu Lik was still in good spirits.
Finally, Zhou Pan couldn't stand it anymore, he exchanged glances with Du He, so he picked up a burning wooden stick and gave a signal to move.
Seeing the signal, hundreds of warriors from the Tiele tribe poured out of the tents, the grass, and the woods, and pounced on the cavalry brought by the Ulik.
Zhou Pan and Du He suddenly flashed their short knives and restrained the Ulic, and the other drunken cavalrymen were also restrained by the ambush.
When Ullick and the others were escorted into the tent, Chi Gero's brother-in-law, Ma Hangu, came out and said, "What are you keeping them for? If you want me to say, this guy is terrible, and they forget it. ā
Zhou Pan said: "His Royal Highness King Liang has ordered, reduce the killing as much as possible, and reduce the amount of revenge. Otherwise, if Her Royal Highness the princess becomes a khan in the future, there will be a lot of trouble. ā
Subsequently, they escorted Wu Lik and others and set off overnight to return to the royal court of the Tiele Ministry.
Besides, Xue Yantuo and the envoys of the Tuli tribe followed the welcoming procession of the Tiele tribe. As they walked, they noticed that there was something wrong with the direction they were walking.
Xue Yantuo's envoy asked, "Why do you want to go here to go to the royal court of your department?" ā
The commander of the team led by the Tiele Department glared at the triangular eyes and said, "Since you don't want to leave, stay here." As he spoke, he brandished the scimitar in his hand and slashed him in the face.
The warriors of the Tiele tribe also worked together and slaughtered all of Xue Yantuo's missions.
Yang Kang, the pretending commander of a thousand soldiers, said to the envoy of the Turki tribe who was half frightened: "Don't be afraid, we will not target your Turk tribe, we will temporarily wronged you, and when the matter is over, we will let you go." ā
The royal court of the Tiele tribe.
Chebi Zhangjun, Li Su, Chemo Zheluo, and Chebi Wuyun are examining their plans.
Che Bi Zheluo said: "Uncle (Qi Bi Zhangjun), I really didn't expect that Zuo Prime Minister Zhen Denan turned out to be your person, it's really good." ā
Great Elder Qibi Zhangjun smiled and said, "Zhen Denan is a famous wise man in the Tiele Tribe, how could he take refuge in Qibi Zheke?" If he hadn't secretly helped, the dark clouds would have been exposed long ago. ā
He continued: "Your Royal Highness King Liang, now, Xue Yantuo's envoy has been killed, and the treasure you brought has been given to the leaders who support the dark clouds, and they will come out to respond when the time comes."
Now, it depends on when your Tang army arrives, and there is still food, so you must arrive on time. ā
Li Su said: "The person who went to the General's Mansion to deliver the letter was Cheng Chumo, the son of Cheng Zhijin, the prince of the Tang Dynasty, who was stable and reliable, and would definitely be able to deliver the letter on time." ā
Speaking of Cheng Chumo, with two Tang Army soldiers, under the leadership of a guide from the Tiele Department, he walked through the vast grassland. At nine o'clock that night, they came to the edge of the next door, and the guide suggested that they rest for an hour, and then cross the next door in the night, and they would reach the border in three hours.
The four of them lit a fire and rested on their horses.
Just as they were resting and ready to go, the horses suddenly became agitated. The guide shouted, "Not good, look. ā
Cheng Chumo and the others looked in the direction of his finger, and a pair of cold bright spots appeared in the night.
"It's a pack of wolves!" The guide shouted.
Wolves are rarely seen here, and they usually move on the grasslands near the Yin Mountains. This year's grassland drought has reduced the number of animals that can be hunted by wolves at the foot of Yin Mountain, and they are forced to go deep into the hinterland of the grassland.
This wolf pack is not small, and there are no less than hundreds of them that can be seen now. The guide, an experienced shepherd, knew that he could not be surrounded by wolves and that he had to leave immediately. He shouted, "Get on your horse and run." ā
The people hurriedly mounted their horses and ran towards the next door, when a dozen wolves appeared in front of them, and when they saw them, they ran up to intercept them.
Cheng Chumo took the lead and rushed towards the wolves, he looked at a gray wolf in front of him, and hit the gray wolf on the head with a lance. The rest of the people also slashed the gray wolf in front of them and rushed over.
Suddenly, a Tang soldier screamed from behind. Cheng Chumo and the others looked back and saw that the war horse of a Tang Army soldier was bitten by two gray wolves, and the war horse was no longer able to gallop. The wolves around him quickly pounced on him.
The Don soldier shouted, "Help me." ā
Cheng Chumo grabbed the reins of the horse and prepared to go back to the rescue. At this moment, the soldier had fallen from his horse, and at least a dozen gray wolves pounced. The rest of the gray wolves continued to pounce on them.
The guide shouted, "Don't stop, run." ā
The three had to give up the idea of rescue and desperately escaped. The wolves are in hot pursuit.
The steppe wolves are known for their endurance, and they are relentlessly pursued.
When Cheng Chumo and the others came out, in order to maintain their speed, they were all one person and two horses. They kept changing on horseback, keeping their distance from the wolves. However, the wolves still followed them.
The road is getting harder and harder, and the wolves are getting closer. The guide slashed his other horse to death. With the dead war horse, some gray wolves were attracted.
Not long after, Cheng Chumo also hacked his other horse to death, attracting another group of gray wolves. By the time the Don soldier had also killed the other horse, there were only a few gray wolves behind them.
Cheng Chumo turned around and released his arrows, shot two more gray wolves, and the remaining three batches of gray wolves turned around and fled. They finally got rid of the wolves.
The three of them continued to move forward, and after two and a half hours, they finally came to the border of Hanzhuang County.
At this moment, a large group of patrols of the Don Army appeared in front. The leading officer shouted: "Who? Stand still and dismount immediately! ā
