Chapter 212: Oghuz (Part II)
The political system of the steppe peoples is somewhat similar to that of wolves, the composition of the leader clan is often composed of some relatives, each relative may inherit the dominant position in the group after the death of the leader of the previous generation, and some will migrate out and form a separate tribe, and in some cases there will be migratory wolves, with a group of hundreds of heads, there are various types of wolves from different family levels, and the leaders of each small group of protowolves will become the head wolf, and the most outstanding of the head wolves will become the wolf king.
Obviously, the man in this small group is the most likely to become the wolf king.
However, he is only a close confidant of Ye Hu, and Fei Kin, for that clan, the profit and loss is simply a powerful bomb that can be detonated at any time......
Therefore, everything can be explained clearly, why he came with only 50,000 soldiers and horses, why he collected the people of those tribes along the way, and why he avoided Li Chengqian without fighting.
There is no room for him to live in the land to the west, the tribe is already full of powerful enemies, he needs a support, 100,000 soldiers and horses, for the entire Yehu tribe, it still seems that it is not enough, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse.
He is an outsider, so he needs a big credit for a day as an opportunity to take the position, this opportunity is to provoke the Tang Dynasty, no matter whether he will win this time, after returning to the tribe, his position will be laid, according to his ability, he will definitely be cleaned and rectified, this is a necessary process, and he can't help but do it.
But this is also an opportunity to protect those loved ones, who will not allow an outsider to divide their own rights.
He knew this, so from the beginning, he didn't think about going back.
Because the Tang Dynasty is always tolerant of foreign races, such as Jieli and Tuli, he is confident that the Tang people will accept him.
Squinting his eyes, his fingers tapped slowly on the table a few times, then took a breath and slapped the battle report on the ground. When I walked out of the door, it was the afternoon sun, and I looked at this endless plateau between my fingers, but the corners of my mouth were slightly hooked.
"Go, find a few generals to do the big tent."
When everyone arrived at the big tent, they saw Li Chengqian lying lazily on the chair, enjoying the sunshine comfortably, seeing everyone's serious faces, Li Chengqian picked up the jerky on the side and tore a piece, chewing while pointing to a few letters on the side and muttering: "I thought of three strategies just now, you can help me take a look, and go back and talk about your opinions." β
After everyone read it, they all looked at Cheng Qian here in shock, pointed to the things written on the paper and said, "The chief manager, at this time, you are a little sure." β
Li Chengqian pursed his lips and said: "Who can say clearly about this kind of ever-changing thing, but according to the current situation, the profit loss is as I thought." β
"If you really want to descend to the Tang Dynasty, why do you still have to fight against us?"
"He's waiting, too."
"What are you waiting for?"
"Wait for the Leaf Protector to re-elect the leader." Then he smiled slightly: "However, the woman who protects the leaves will definitely not let him down." β
The two armies kept looking at each other like this, and the distance between them was only more than thirty miles. Li Chengqian has been higher than those who are watching from afar these days, and the air on the plateau is a little thin during the day, although the distance of more than 30 miles is a little far, but he can still vaguely see some general conditions, but at night, he can only vaguely see the fires in the distance.
"It should be soonβ"
"It shouldn't be so slowβ"
The night breeze blew his clothes slightly, and Li Chengqian was already a little impatient to wait these days. Li Chengqian pondered this somewhat absurd assumption on the lookout, his fingers constantly tapping the scabbard of the horizontal knife in his hand.
Until a certain moment, in the distant enemy camp, suddenly there was a fire and smoke rising, and then, gradually, after a while, it began to spread around.
"Beat the drums and reorganize the army!"
The smoke and dust of the fire became thicker and thicker, but it only began to surround the barracks, and the smile on Li Chengqian's face became more and more profound, and Li Chengqian gradually began to laugh as he watched his scouts continue to send battle reports.
Sure enough~ as expected!
The outbreak of the Turkic camp against the rebellion of the old ministers of the Wild Protector seems to have come a little hastily, but as an excellent general, he will naturally be wary of these things. As soon as the news of the tribal khan's accession to the throne arrived, the army formation of the left army began to storm the Chinese army as if it had gone crazy.
However, when everyone thought that they were unconscious, countless soldiers and horses began to surround and kill the Chinese army from all around the camp as if they had agreed.
Blood spilled in the sky, shouts of killing mixed with unwilling wails and weeping, and the camp was completely chaotic, and Le Lisu watched all this coldly.
And behind him, there is the Tang army like a mountain and a sea, they are quietly watching the turmoil here from a distance, and they know that they are gambling, betting that the Tang people have seen through their own minds, and betting that the Tang people will accept themselves.
However, Li Chengqian is also gambling, gambling that he is a smart person, betting that they will not eliminate the civil strife and then flee, but both of them have a big chance of winning, and they have lost their pastures in the Western Regions, and after the end of this war, there is no room for him to live in the west, and there is no room for him to live in the east.
Neither the Tang people nor the Tiele tribe would tolerate a former enemy sleeping peacefully in a place that seemed to be strong but was actually a little empty.
Relative to Li Chengqian's performance these days also gave Yu Li enough confidence, after he advanced and retreated from each other three times, he did not choose to enter the palace, but watched from a distance, although there was no communication, but he finally saw the faint sincerity of the Tang people.
"What a good opponent......"
He muttered for a while, beckoned to the pro-army at hand, "Send someone...... Go get in touch with it...... Let's just say, Oghuz, the profit is lost, and the family comes to the Tang Dynasty. β
"But if the Tang people, Khan, this is really risky......"
"Really?" "But what else can I do now?" The Tang people need manpower to fight Tu Gu Hun, and that general is a smart man, he will definitely agree. β
"I must remember, tomorrow morning ......," he laughed, then became a little tired, "I want to hurry...... Solve these things. β
****************
When Li Chengqian arrived at the battlefield with 100,000 iron cavalry in the morning, the bloody atmosphere on the battlefield had not yet disappeared, Li Chengqian stood on the horse and looked at it, the scattered corpses, the tents that were still smoking green, and the Turkic people who were already tired and did not look good, smiled slightly, and in the military array opposite, the horses came with a bad horse, and when they arrived in front of Li Chengqian's horse, all the cavalry against him also dismounted, touched his chest with his right hand, and knelt on one knee.
