Chapter 593: The Coming of the Elders (1)
The camp of the Xueyanta Khanate in the steppe. After hearing the news www.biquge.info that Li Tang raided Mobei and captured the Lili Khan Ashina Duppi and the crown prince Ashina Buyer, Xue Yantuo Zhenzhu Gabi Khan Yinan immediately convened all the nobles of Xue Yantuo to discuss:
"Leaders, Great Patriarchs, Great Elders! Now Li Tang has completely pacified the Eastern Turks, and has captured the Jieli Khan Ashina Duppi and Ashina Buyer both father and son. Also, in the ancestral homeland of the Eastern Turks, a large amount of copper and iron ore was discovered. ”
"What? Copper and iron ore! "As soon as they heard about the copper and iron mines, the noble elders of the Xueyanta Khanate all raised their voices - the steppe peoples made a living of killing. But weapons are lacking, and a good saber requires about two kilograms of pig iron. Bronze is required for the bow and arrow cluster. The grassland people did not have smelting technology, so the copper and iron on the grassland were smuggled from the Central Plains. A kilogram of copper and iron is often exchanged for a kilogram of gold. However, with Li Tang's vigorous blockade of the border and the large-scale use of troops on the grassland, there was less and less copper and iron on the grassland.
"Everyone! Now, the Eastern Turks have completely fallen, but Ben Khan feels that a new hungry wolf has arrived in the steppe. You say, are we fighting or making peace with Li Tang? Prince Bazhuo first shouted:
"Of course it's a battle, huh! If it weren't for the fact that our Xue Yantuo Khanate made a great effort to defeat the main force of the Eastern Turks, those southern barbarians just picked up a bargain behind our butts and said something that should not be said, then the ancestral home of the Turkic Mobei should belong to our Xue Yantuo Khanate. As he spoke, Prince Bazhuo looked at the Xue Yanta Khanate's True Pearl Viga Khan Yi Nan and Prince Troll. At the beginning, the Xue Yantuo Khanate successfully attacked the camp of the Eastern Turks, and the prince of Bazhuo, under the hint of Yantuo Dudu, pursued it first, and must capture alive the father and son of the Lingli Khan Ashina Dupi and Ashina Buyer, and it is best to take advantage of the situation to seize the last habitat of the Eastern Turks - the land of the Turkic Mobei Ancestral Tomb. However, this move was opposed by the tribal leaders such as the prince and the Hui Hui, and the reason for the opposition of the prince and the Hui was that the fall of the Eastern Turks was now a foregone conclusion, and now Xue Yantuo had also gathered a large number of Eastern Turkic tribes, as well as the Xi tribe and the Lei tribe, which had just been annexed. People's hearts are unstable! It needs to be soothed and digested! There is also the alliance of the Hui and Tiele tribes that also have this opinion. And the tribe surnamed Xue in the Xue Yantuo tribe also means this, you must know that this harvest is not small! Everyone needs to digest it! Xue Yantuo Zhenzhu Gavi Khan Yinan was afraid that Bazhuo would increase his prestige and threaten his status by taking advantage of this matter, so he didn't insist anymore, Bazhuo was originally encouraged by Yantuo Dudu, and in the end he didn't insist, Yantuo Dudu saw it on the side, and secretly said in his heart: 'What a stupid pig! ’。 However, Prince Bazhuo's remark here made the faces of the entire Khan tent, including Xue Yanta Zhenzhu Gavi Khan, look bad - why, only your head is good in this tent, are we all stupid pigs?! Yantuo Dudu saw the faces of the people in the entire sweat tent, and immediately pulled Prince Bazhuo along:
"Great Khan! Bazhuo doesn't understand things! Pull it out! How do you speak? Go, get out! Get out! ”
"Uncle, I'm ......" Yantuo Dudu gestured to Prince Bazhuo, who felt that he was being ignored by everyone and walked out angrily. When Prince Bazhuo returned to his tent, Prince Bazhuo's cronies saw that Prince Bazhuo was unhappy, and immediately pulled in a woman with a haggard face, this woman was not as dark as Xue Yantuo's grassland woman, but her whole body was slender and white. This woman was when Prince Bazhuo was patrolling the camp when he heard a woman's screams, and when Bazhuo walked over, he found the woman in a cage. And a one-eyed sweat kept beating with a stick on the outside of the cage. There is also a large crowd of people watching the excitement around.
"Hahaha! You're called! The more you call me, the happier I am! The woman's face was full of horror.
"Humph! You think you're still a nobleman of the Eastern Turks! Now you're my plaything! It's my cows, my sheep, my horses! Let you be disobedient, I will make you disobedient! Well! You're called! You scream! Yes! Hahaha! Prince Bazhuo was drawn to the woman's shout.
"What's going on? Hubil headman, what's the matter, you have a new pet again!? When the one-eyed Khan saw that it was the prince of Bazhuo, he immediately laughed and said:
"Ahh It's His Royal Highness the Prince! Nothing, just I'm training an untamed mare? "Prince Bazhuo felt that this was a beautiful woman from the woman's voice, and when Prince Bazhuo got closer, he saw that although this woman was full of stains, she was slender, and she should be a unique Central Plains woman.
"Touman Hubil, how about giving me this woman?" The head of the Hubil immediately threw away his stick, put his hand on the saber, and looked at the prince with wariness.
"Your Royal Highness, you should know the rules, I snatched this woman back from the battlefield. I can't give it to you. There are only two ways, one is that you buy something, and the other is that you duel with me, and the victor can take this woman away! "Prince Bazhuo, who had been touted lately, no longer knew who he was, and immediately felt a sense of contempt, and was about to pull out his saber. A strong guard next to him stopped Prince Bazhuo.
"Your Royal Highness, don't do this! How do you do this kind of thing? Leave it to me, the minion! "This guard was specially sent by Yantuo Dudu to Bazhuo, Yantuo Dudu knows that Bazhuo is impulsive and arrogant, and now there is praise for the prince of Bazhuo, and Bazhuo doesn't know how many catties and taels he has. So, assign this man to him at once. On the one hand, it is responsible for guarding, and on the other hand, it is also to prevent trouble. Now, it's finally coming in handy.
"Hubil head, let's duel according to the rules of the grassland!" The result, of course, was that the head of Hubil lost, and in this way, that woman became the trophy of Prince Bazhuo, and also became a tool for Prince Bazhuo to vent.
"Take it off, take off your clothes for me right away! Hear no. Hurry up! The woman had no choice but to take off her clothes as Prince Bazhuo had instructed, and her whole body was covered with scars. Prince Bazhuo also stripped himself naked, and stroked his hand over the skin of the woman, who began to tremble. Then, Ba Zhuo picked up the whip, and the screams of women were heard outside the tent.
In the tent of the Xue Yantuo Khan's court, Xue Yantuo Zhenzhu Jiabi Khan Yinan continued the topic at that time.
"Troll, you say, what should we do next?"
"Father Khan, the child thinks that we should cooperate with Li Tang next. And take the opportunity to develop in the Western Regions. You know, there are a lot of treasures in the Western Regions that we want! At this moment, outside the tent, a guard shouted:
"Report to the Khan! Our spies in the Western Turks have returned. ”
"Oh! All right! Call him in right now! After a while, a man walked in.
"See Khan! See the Great Chiefs and Great Patriarchs! ”
"Hmmm! What news did you find in the Western Turks? "Because Xue Yantuo Zhenzhu Gabi Khan Yinan dug up the ancestral tombs of the Turks and started a war with the Eastern Turks, he was very afraid that the Western Turks and the Eastern Turks would attack the Xue Yantuo Khanate, so he sent his eyes to the Western Regions and the Western Turks.
"Khan of Qiqi! The Western Turkic Khan died of illness, and his younger brother Yehu Khan ascended the throne. ”
"When did this happen!?"
"Repay the Great Khan! Just after the defeat of the Eastern Turks! ”
"Oh! No wonder the Western Turks have not sent troops, it turns out that their khan is sick. "Not long after Xue Yantuo Zhenzhu Gavi Khan Yinan was happy, several Tiele elders present had dark faces.
"Hmmm! Elders, is there any way for this person to come from? ”
"Great Khan! This Tong Ye Hu is different from his elder brother, and his person is more strategic! In Elder Tiele's narration, Xue Yantuo Zhenzhu Gavi Khan Yinan finally understood what was going on - Tongyehu Khan was the grandson of the Western Turkic Khan Datou Khan, the younger brother of the Shooting Khan, and when he was a little Khan, he was known to have hundreds of thousands of people who controlled the strings, and his martial arts were very good. In order to consolidate the hegemony of the Turks in Central Asia, Tong Yehu incorporated the kings of the Western Regions into the military administrative system, granted the official title of "Jieli Xuan", and sent a Tutun to be stationed to monitor and supervise the collection of taxes. Through these measures, the Western Turks quickly gained a firm foothold, and with the help of the power of the Western Regions, they defeated the Western Regions power, Tuyuhun. And the most memorable thing is that when he was sixteen years old, when he was just appointed as a little khan, he chased and killed the remnants of Tiele who remained in the western Turkic territory, and used the heads of the chiefs of the Tiele tribes to make wine vessels, hanging them everywhere, and he was a very brutal guy.
"What else have you heard in the Western Turks?"
"Qiyu Khan, after that Tongye Hu ascended the throne, he immediately canonized Ashina Sheer as Dubu Khan! And a great force was given. It is mainly arranged on the border between Tuyuhun and our Xueyanta Khanate. "After Xue Yantuo Zhenzhu Gabhi Khan Yinan heard the name of Ashina She'er, a fear surged in his heart. Xue Yantuo Zhenzhu Gabi Khan Yinan attaches great importance to Ashina She'er, but Xue Yantuo Zhenzhu Jiabi Khan Yinan also knows that the contradiction between himself and Ashina She'er is irreconcilable. Moreover, Ashinasher's troops were deployed on the border between Tuyuhun and the Xueyantuo Khanate. It is clear that he wants to deal with Xue Yantuo. Xue Yanta Zhenzhu Gavi Khan Yinan felt a kind of crisis. So, Xue Yanta Zhenzhu Gavi Khan Yinan asked Trolling:
"Lu Mang, Mr. Chu Suiliang, you take care of it well!"
