Chapter 213: Never Die
With a decision, Tuli Khan and Yi Nan looked at each other and laughed, and there was a feeling that heroes knew heroes and sympathized with each other. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Yi Nan, after defeating Jieli, if you and I don't die, the position of the Turkic Great Khan will be created between you and me, whether we are enemies or friends in the future, I hope we will abandon distractions and be true allies. Do you think so? Tuli Khan said suddenly and bluntly.
The vast grasslands and nomadic way of life have forged the character of the horseback people who love freedom and dare to love and hate. For the sake of friends, they can stick knives in both sides; For the sake of their lovers, they can sacrifice their lives and forget their deaths. They are heroic by nature, tenacious and unyielding, and have great respect for the strong, even if they are the warriors of the enemy, they can also treat them with an objective mentality, unlike the people of the Central Plains Dynasty who like to have a set behind the scenes.
Although Tuli is the leader of a department, he still can't get rid of the grandeur of the grassland people, so when he is alone with Yi Nan, he expresses his thoughts in the most direct words.
"When the King of Khan said this, Yi Nan was ashamed! Luckily, we've all come to our senses. Jieli has accumulated strong wealth and prestige in the Central Plains Rebellion, and his prestige is not something you and I can match, and if we want to win, we can only defeat him by sincerely uniting together. King Khan simply, I, Yi Nan, also hereby promise that before defeating Jieli, even if we have different ideas, I will not be as awkward as I was a few days ago. No matter what happens in the future, we are friends now. Yi Nan also said heavily.
After the two put the sensitive topic on the table and said, the relationship became closer, just because the grassland people are trustworthy, one is one, two is two, and they hate two sides and three knives the most, the two can start a new stove, and there are a large number of followers, which is not unrelated to their character and demeanor.
The next day, there was a sudden heavy snowfall in the Turkic rain, and the eldest son of the Turks, He Luohu, with the trust of the Turks and Yi Nan, led an elite group of Turkic warriors to brave the snow to the Central Plains, accompanied by the uncle who was very unimpressed, to be honest, He Luohu did not like this fierce, domineering, and arrogant uncle.
"Father Khan, Uncle Yi Nan, I'm leaving!" He Luohu saluted the Turks and Yi Nan, and the etiquette was not the Turkic fist in the chest, but the etiquette of the Central Plains.
The Turks have the inherent language of the Turks, and seven or eight out of ten Turks do not speak Chinese and do not understand the etiquette of the Central Plains, but the nobles in the Turks must speak Chinese. This is true not only of the Turks, but also of the alien races around China since ancient times. This is also something to be proud of as a Chinese person. In the face of the broad and profound Chinese culture, the surrounding aliens can only worship and learn.
In the aristocratic circles of different races, not being able to speak Chinese and write Chinese characters is a sign of unculture, and will be despised by the upper class.
Tuli admired the culture of the Central Plains, so he found a Central Plains teacher for his son, so that He Luohu not only could speak Chinese, but also understood the etiquette of the Han family, and it was precisely because of learning the Confucianism of the Central Plains that He Luohu had some qualities of the Central Plains people.
Tuli Khan patted his son on the shoulder, dusted off the snowflakes on his shoulder, and thousands of fathers loved each other in this small movement, staring deeply at his son who was going out for the first time, and pretended to be indifferent: "Be careful on the road." ”
"Whoa!"
……
This heavy snowfall also calmed down the tacit understanding between the Turkic enemy and the enemy, and both sides licked their wounds in this winter, as if before a storm, and did their best to accumulate strength.
Next year will be an important year for deciding ownership.
When Jieli got the news that Tuli had sent his son south to the Central Plains, it was already five days later.
At that time, Jieli was feasting on the leader of the Xi clan, and when he got such news in public, he kicked the case in front of him and flew out, and all kinds of wine buffalo and sheep splashed all over the ground, and shouted angrily: "What a Shibo (the name of the Turki Khan), I knew that it was a white-eyed fox, and I should have killed him in the first place." "His position as Khan logically belongs to the Turki Khan, but he bullied Tuli at a young age and refused to return to power. Since Shibi Khan had a large number of followers in the Turks, in order to avoid the division of people's hearts, he did not dare to take the Turks, and when he realized that the Turks had become his elbows, it was even more difficult to get rid of them. At this moment, as soon as he heard that the Turki faction was heading south, he immediately guessed the intentions of the Turki Khan.
"What a king and eight calves, what a long face. Sell me Turk like this, and as the Khan of the Turks, I can't tolerate this kind of villain who turns his back on my Turks. ”
A Han strategist named Yang Yande said: "Turki is very prestigious in the Turks, and after being with the Yi Nan army, the strength of the Great Khan is equal, and even surpassing, if the Tang army helps again, it will be like a tiger with wings." The Khan was not afraid of him, but there was a saying among us that said, 'Kill a thousand enemies, and lose eight hundred'. Even if Khan defeats Tuli, he will suffer great damage and his strength will be greatly reduced. The surrounding tribes that are loyal to us will also be out of our control, and will become our henchmen and powerful enemies. ”
Jieli, who had fought with Chai Shao and suffered a big loss, said with a solemn face: "Then according to Mr. Shi's opinion, according to the current situation, how should we deal with it?" ”
The Tang army was by no means within the reach of the Sui Dynasty, and he knew this very well, and Jieli Khan knew very well what kind of predicament he would face after Tuli formed an alliance with the Tang Dynasty.
"The first strike is stronger, and the last strike suffers. This is an immutable law, and in my opinion, the Great Khan can send people to get rid of Heluohu in the territory of the Tang army and destroy the possibility of his alliance. On the one hand, he sent people to Li Shimin and the snake committee, and then settled accounts with Li Shimin after killing Tuli and Yi Nan. This rebellion, of course, has caused some damage to the Turks, but in the long run, it is a good thing. Once the Turki Male Alliance is defeated, the Great Khan's prestige will surpass that of anyone before him, and when the time comes, the Great Khan will not dare to resist at all if he wants to build a country like an iron bucket. Of course, the premise is to stop the alliance of Li Shimin and defeat the Turkish. Although Yang Yande is a literati, his evil spirit is extremely serious.
Jieli's expression was grim, and he said, "What you said is very reasonable, so do it." ”
Jieli was very remorseful in his heart, he thought that he was wise, but he had done wrong in one thing.
Raise a tiger for trouble!
He has raised two tigers in his life, and now they are both eating against him as a former tiger herder. Needless to say, Tuli has now become his opponent.
And the other tiger he raised was naturally Li Tang.
When Li Yuan Taiyuan was in trouble, there were no more than 10,000 soldiers, and they were still some untrained miscellaneous soldiers, and he had 150,000 soldiers in his hands, and it was easy to crush Li Yuan at that time. At that time, he asked for the turmoil of the Great Sui, and the more chaotic the better, so he accepted Li Yuan's overtures and gave a large number of war horses as support. I thought that time had passed, and the original small role had grown into the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, sitting on the original territory of the Sui Dynasty, and now, the second generation of Li Tang emperors not only openly argued with him, but also became the most critical and uncertain factor affecting the success or failure of the Turks.
Thinking that he now has to look at the face of the little character back then, Jieli feels as disgusting as swallowing a fly. It's a pity that there is no regret medicine to buy in the world, and Li Tang's rise and strength have become a fact.
"Li Shimin, when I defeat the white-eyed wolf Tuli, I look good with you!" Jieli thought with hatred in his heart.
A high-spirited feast of receiving the wind and washing the dust, discussing meritorious deeds, because of the news of He Luohu's southward departure, he broke up unhappily.
"Yang Yande greets Her Royal Highness the Princess!" After the meeting, Yang Yande visited Princess Yicheng.
"There is no need to be polite." Princess Yicheng said with a gloomy face: "Yande, you tell me the truth, does Jieli Khan have any hope of defeating the Tuliyi male coalition army?" "Jieli Khan is the only reliance on the restoration of the Sui Dynasty, if Jieli Khan is defeated, the fate of her and Yang Zhengdao, the king of Sui, can be imagined.
Yang Yande's heart was gloomy, as a wise man, how could he not know the predicament in front of Jieli Khan? Just now he offered two strategies to Jieli Khan, in fact, in addition to assassinating He Luohu, he did not have the slightest hope of forming an alliance with Li Tang, if he was Li Shimin, he would not have formed an alliance with Jieli Khan, the reason is that Jieli Khan brought great shame to Li Yuan and his son. The Central Plains is different from the Turks, the Turks can put aside all prejudices and talk to the enemy for the sake of profit, and the Central Plains has a very good face, and will do some incredible things for the sake of face, even the wise and martial Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is the same, Li Shimin is extraordinary, and will definitely use the same lesson as blood to repay the shame brought to him by Jieli.
"Your Royal Highness Princess, Jieli Khan is indeed in a very dangerous situation, but it is not hopeless, he controls the largest population of the Turks, the most elite army, and has an invincible prestige, as long as he does not make a big mistake, it is very possible to defeat the Turki man. Moreover, with the joining of the Xi clan, the power of Jieli Khan is not weak. ”
"The premise is that Tang Shun does not send troops, or defeats Tuli and Yi Nan before Tang Cheng sends troops." Princess Yicheng took Yang Yande's words and said: "The grassland is the weak and the strong, if the Great Khan does not have a hearty victory, not to mention the Xi tribe, even the cronies who are loyal to the Great Khan will abandon him sooner or later...... I have lived in the grassland for so many years, and I have seen through the rules of the grassland. They only have their own interests in their hearts, and if they have milk, they are mothers, and they have no absolute loyalty. ”
The Turks believed in the strong, and the Turkic khans had to be strong: they had the personal strength to serve the people, the military strength to serve the people, the prestige to serve the people, and the intelligence to serve the people.
Jieli used all this to snatch the throne of the Khan from his two nephews, and he has sat firmly to this day.
He thought he could stay strong, but the joint rebellion of Tuli and Yi Nan seriously challenged his prestige. Once Jieli is defeated, he will be greeted by the end of all betrayals; If Tuli and Yi Nan are defeated, the result will be the same.
Princess Yicheng saw the essence of the Turkic people clearly, why not Yang Yande?
