"Do you think I'm crazy, why don't you choose to follow the powerful Turks to attack the Tiele tribes, but instead help the Tiele tribes who seem to be relatively weak."

Da He Ku Moli raised his head and glanced around, looked at the expressions of the other tribesmen, and asked lightly.

"This ........"

After being looked at by Da He Ku Moli's eyes that seemed to be able to see through his heart, several tribal adults lowered their heads one after another, silently, but their expressions were fully revealed.

"Hey, you ........"

Although Dahe Ku Moli does not have as conspicuous achievements as his grandfather Dahe Cave Brother, but for the entire Khitan tribe, Da He Ku Moli is indeed a very good successor, you know, the development of any force or nation is not achieved overnight, and the phenomenon of snakes swallowing elephants can not be successful at any time.

Although the inheritance of the Khitan tribe is long, but because the power is too weak, it has been acting under the fence on the grassland, and even has the crisis of extinction many times, and after several speculations by Brother Dahe, although it seems that the Khitan tribe has grown rapidly, compared with the overlords of the grassland, the Turks and the Tiele people, it is still a weakling, in this case, if there is a radical figure like Li Jinzhong, I am afraid that the only way to perish is waiting for the Khitan tribe, and Dahe Kumo is different, It seems that there has been nothing to do over the years, and the influence of the Khitan is not even as good as that of his grandfather, but the population of the Khitan tribe has increased several times, and the cattle, sheep and horses all over the mountains prove that Dahe Ku Moli has made a real contribution to the Khitan tribe.

It is precisely in this way that the rest of the tribes will continue to respect the Oga tribe.

"You think well, for ordinary people, if you want to get benefits, you will definitely follow the strong, this is the custom of our grassland, but the Han people have a saying, called, the icing on the cake is not as good as sending charcoal in the snow.

Now the Turks are powerful, even if we go to defect, after the victory of the Turks, they will not give us too many benefits, and maybe even target us, but it is different from the Tiele Alliance, the Tiele people currently seem to be in a preoccupation, it is when we need help, we will pass at this time, we will definitely be treated as benefactors by the Tiele people, and in the same way, with this kind of kindness, after defeating the Turks, we will definitely be able to get huge benefits. Oha Ku Mo Li said.

"However, how can you guarantee that the Tiele people will win, in case the Turks defeat the Tiele people, then we will be in trouble." A tribal lord said with some concern.

"Hey, hey, hey......."

Hearing the worried words of this tribe adult, Da He Ku Moli couldn't help but sneer.

"The Turks won, it's not impossible, but I'm afraid this hope is extremely slim, if there is no participation of the Tang Dynasty, the scattered Tiele people are definitely not the opponents of the Turks, but now, the Tang Dynasty is involved, it will be different, although the power of the Tang Dynasty in the northern Xinjiang has declined greatly over the years, and the Anbei Protectorate has even moved to the Guannei, but the Tang Dynasty is still a terrifying lion. This time such a good opportunity, how can Datang let it go, you can rest assured, when the critical time comes, Datang will definitely send troops, when the time comes, the Tiele people are in front, Datang is behind, under the front and back, how can the Turks be undefeated. ”

"Grand Commander LinkedIn, I waited for a narrow vision, and almost ruined the great opportunity for my Khitan to rise, since the Grand Commander already has an idea, I will wait for everything to follow the Grand Commander's orders."

After a little thought, many of the tribesmen agreed with Oga Kumoli's opinion.

........................

Guannei, the eastern capital of Luoyang City, Zhenguan Palace

After reviewing the last official document on the table, Wu Zetian raised his head and frowned at the empty hall, and exhaled tiredly, it was already half of the night at this time, from getting up before dawn in the morning, to now six or seven hours, except for half an hour at noon, the rest of the time, are receiving ministers or reviewing and reading.

In this case, even a man in the prime of life may be a little unbearable, not to mention that Wu Zetian is already an old man in his sixties.

"Niangniang, it's getting late, do you want to go back to the dormitory now." A palace maid saw Wu Zetian raise her head, hurriedly ran out of a remote corner, and asked.

"Hmm....... Forget it, the mourning family is not sleepy yet, just right, the night is clean, and the mourning family goes outside to take a walk and relax. ”

As he spoke, Wu Zetian walked out of the main hall with steps.

said that he was walking, Wu Zetian came to the outside of the main hall, stood on the platform of the main hall, looked up at the starry sky, and seemed to be a little stupid for a while.

"Pedaling .........."

A sound of footsteps came, although the person who came had deliberately lightened his steps, but under the silent night sky, it still reached Wu Zetian's ears.

"Who's coming, but there's something urgent."

Wu Zetian asked.

"It's really a sin for the slave to disturb the mother's stargazing, and I ask the mother to forgive me." Accompanied by Wu Zetian's words, a woman in a pretty palace dress flashed from the side, it was none other than Shangguan Wan'er.

"Haha, it's you girl, why, you don't sleep so late, what's the matter with coming to this Zhenguan Palace." Seeing that it was Shangguan Wan'er, Wu Zetian also showed a burst of laughter.

"Niangniang, look at what you said, you are Wan'er's master, you haven't rested yet, how dare Wan'er rest, this is known to outsiders, and you think Wan'er is usually presumptuous?" Seeing Wu Zetian's smile, Shangguan Wan'er got up from the ground, walked quickly to Wu Zetian's side, hugged one of her arms, and said coquettishly.

"You, you, this is not presumptuous, around the mourning family, I'm afraid you are a girl who dares to be presumptuous, even Taiping does not dare to be so presumptuous in front of the mourning family." Regarding Shangguan Wan'er's coquettishness, Wu Zetian not only did not have the slightest look of displeasure, but showed a rare kindness on his face.

"Ah, don't say it, the slave almost forgot, the slave and maid have the secret protection that just came from the north of Xinjiang, and I invite the mother to take a look." While speaking, Shangguan Wan'er took out a small box from her arms, which was different from ordinary boxes, this box looked cold under the starlight, and it looked like it was made of fine iron, and the whole box looked like a piece of iron.

"Hmmm......"

Seeing the box in front of him, the expression on Wu Zetian's face was also the same, and he slowly took out a small key from his arms, and after groping on the iron box for a while, he inserted the key in his hand into a groove, and then he heard a 'click', and the iron box was divided into two halves, revealing a stack of white paper in the middle.

Handing over the iron box to Shangguan Wan'er, Wu Zetian looked at the contents of the white paper by the candlelight at the entrance of the main hall.

"Hmph, this kid, he can really toss, the mourning family asked him to send Taiping to Hui Hui to negotiate peace, he is good, he made an alliance with Hui Hui on his own initiative, and he also wants to help Hui Hui resist the Turkic soldiers, what a bastard thing."

After reading the secret protection in his hand at a glance and ten lines, Wu Zetian said.

"Well, mother, but ..... But something wrong happened. ”

Regarding the origin of the iron box, Shangguan Wan'er, who was in contact with her first, knew best, this iron box was given to him by Duan Jian personally when he was leaving, and the purpose was to send some things that could not be known by outsiders to the palace anytime and anywhere, but unfortunately, although she knew that it was sent by Duan Jian, because of the confidentiality of the iron box, Shangguan Wan'er didn't know what was written in it, and now when she heard Wu Zetian's words, she thought that Duan Jian had done something to make the Queen Mother angry.

"Inappropriate things, not only inappropriate, it's just a big trouble, this time I'm afraid that my Datang will use swords again, this kid is really capable of causing trouble, and the next time I see him, the mourning family must punish him well."

While speaking, Wu Zetian handed the secret protection in his hand to Shangguan Wan'er.

The secret report in Wu Zetian's hand in a hurry, after reading it briefly, Shangguan Wan'er's hanging heart finally relaxed, the secret report was very simple, Duan Jian just said what he saw and heard after arriving in northern Xinjiang, as well as the current situation of the Anbei Protectorate, and his plan to unite the Hui tribe to exterminate the Turkic army in one fell swoop, no matter how big or small, it was presented on the secret protection one by one.

"Congratulations to Niangniang, congratulations to Niangniang, if according to the plan mentioned by Duan Changshi, the day of exterminating the Turkic army is just around the corner, so that you no longer have to worry about the Turks often attacking our border passes in the south."

Shangguan Wan'er said with a smile.

"Hmph, look at your happy appearance, do you think it is so easy to fight, you want to deal with people, but the Turks are easy to deal with, when Emperor Taizong was there, how many capable generals were sent to defeat the Turks, but how many years have it been, the Turks have resurrected again, besides, such a big battle is fought, how much money will the treasury cost, the land south of the Yangtze River has been rebelled twice in a row over the years, and there are many traitors and villains in the court, trying to deal with the mourning family, at this time it is not easy to send troops to the grassland." Wu Zetian said with some sighs.

"Then, shouldn't the mother allow this?" Hearing Wu Zetian's displeased tone, Shangguan Wan'er asked cautiously.

"Hmph, not allowed, do you think it's important that the mourning family doesn't allow it now, you should have seen it just now, in order to unite the Hui people, that bastard kid actually sent Taiping as a hostage to the Hui tribe, it's just unreasonable, the girl in Taiping usually looks very clever, but in front of that kid, she completely became a fool, so he left to the Hui tribe regardless of it, do you say that he wants to be angry with the mourning family to be willing." Wu Zetian said even more dissatisfied.

"Then do you promise or not?" At this time, even Shangguan Wan'er, who knew Wu Zetian's mind best, didn't know what she meant.

"Hey, forget it, so far, even if it is for the sake of peace, the mourning family can only promise this, but if this is defeated, it's okay, if you lose, the mourning family will definitely not let go of that bastard boy."

Wu Zetian followed the starlight, looked into the distance and said.

.........................

"Your envoy, please sit down, come here, serve tea."

In the city of the Song Desert Governor's Mansion, Duan Jian sat here again.

"The king of the county doesn't have to bother, the king of the county invited the ministers to come today, it should be the matter of sending troops, I don't know how the king of the county and the tribes discussed, whether the soldiers are out or not, the king of the county should have an answer."

Duan Jian asked very cheerfully.

"Hmm........ Hahaha, good, good, good, Duan Changshi is worthy of being a rare young man in the Tang Dynasty over the years, so fast-talking, in this case, Xiao Wang will no longer be verbose, today Xiao Wang can clearly reply to Duan Changshi, after Xiao Wang and the rest of the tribe adults discussed, decided to agree to Duan Changshi's request, gather all my Khitan army, and follow Duan Changshi to attack the Turkic army. ”

Oha Ku Moli said with a smile.

"Hoo .........."

Although he had known for a long time that the Khitan had a great chance of sending troops, when Da He Ku Moli really said that he was willing to send troops, the heart in Duan Jian's heart, which had been restless, finally calmed down.

"Good, good, good, the king of the county is worthy of being the king of the county of the first emperor, so knowledgeable, the foreign minister is here to represent himself and the Tang Dynasty to thank the king of the county." Duan Jian said excitedly.

"Hahaha, Xiao Wang and my Khitan tribe have received the kindness of the first emperor and the previous Tang emperors, how can they not even help with this little thing, it's just that there is one more thing, I hope Duan Changshi can agree in advance."

Da He Ku Moli still said with a smile.

Hearing Da He's words, although he didn't know what it was, Duan Jian's heart jumped violently, and he said cautiously, "I don't know what it is, as long as it's not excessive, the foreign minister will do it for the king of the county as much as possible." ”

"Hahaha, in fact, it's not a big deal, this time to help the Tang Dynasty send troops to attack the Turks, my Khitan has always agreed, I just hope to get some due benefits afterwards, I don't know if Duan Changshi can agree."

"The king of the county and the entire Khitan do this, and it is also deserving to get some due treatment, I don't know what benefits the king wants, grain, salt, or iron." Duan Jian heard that Da He was not leaving, and his heart was a little lighter, whether it was in his previous life or in this life, Duan Jian knew that there were no natural saints in this world at all, 'The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit.' ’

This is the true portrayal of the world.

The Khitan tribe took the risk of sending troops, and some benefits were also due.

"Hahaha, Duan Changshi is really a happy person, since this is the case, Xiao Wang also said bluntly, although my Khitan tribe is not very rich, but there is still some heritage, grain, salt, and even iron tools, although we need it, but it is not too much, we only need the promise of the Tang Dynasty, after defeating the Turks, will be next to our grassland, divide a range of thousands of miles to us, I don't know if Duan Changshi can agree to such a small condition."
