Chapter 827: Fleeing

PS: Thank you to the book friend Oriental BOSS his brother, the monthly ticket support of the sound of the month, and thank the book friend Maxima 0208 for the reward and encouragement.

Cui Junsu laughed: "So far, there is no need to hide it from the deputy chief of the king, this time we are not unprepared, those Tiele tribes have sent their sons and nephews into my Great Sui as hostages, and agreed to attack the Jinshan Khan Court when the time comes, and offer 200,000 cattle and sheep, 100,000 war horses as a reward, originally this time the Supreme Yonadong-Turks sent troops to help, and also wanted to let them contribute when attacking the Jinshan Khan Court, but the day before yesterday I received a situation that the Chu Luo Khan could not withstand the attack of Mohe Khan, gave up the Khan Court, and fled to the east, He will come to Yiwu in the next few days, and when he sees that his younger brother in Yiwu City has also been wiped out, he has no other choice but to go back to the Great Sui with us, so all I have to do now is to go to the Khan's court and bring this paper canonization edict to Mohe Khan to recognize the legitimacy of his accession! ”

Wang Shichong had nothing to say, so he could only barely squeeze out a smile: "The Supreme is far-sighted, beyond the reach of ordinary people like us, and Shichong admires it." ”

Cui Junsu nodded, and said with a smile: "Actually, this time I brought two edicts, and the Supreme ordered me to act, if Chu Luo Khan can defeat Mohe Khan by himself, or other competitors who are interested in the position of Great Khan, then I will take out another edict and continue to confirm our Great Sui's support for Chu Luo Khan, and ask all ministries to recognize the authority of Chu Luo Khan, and now it seems that that the edict is useless." ”

Wang Shichong was depressed in his heart, but he still had a smile on his face: "High, really high, such a clever strategy." Divide the Turkic interior. Sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. In the end, only the winner is supported, which is worthy of a good way that the Supreme can come up with. ”

Xue Shixiong also laughed and said: "Yes, this plan is really perfect, but Ben Shuai still has a question, since this Luo Khan has been overthrown and is a useless person, why should our Great Sui continue to shelter this person?" Hand him over to the new khan to tie his heart. Wouldn't it be better? ”

Cui Junsu smiled and shook his head: "Xue Dashuai's thoughts are exactly the same as when the envoy first received this order, but General Changsun, who proposed this plan at that time, said in the fold that this Luo Khan must be retained, in order to prevent Mo He Khan from being disobedient in the future, raise this Luo Khan, who was once the Great Khan, and leave room in the future, and reserve the opportunity to support Luo Khan in the future and lead the troops back." ”

Wang Shichong's heart sank suddenly. The conjecture just now was confirmed at once, and it was really Changsun Sheng's ghost. While cursing Changsun Sheng countless times in his heart, he pretended to be very surprised and said, "Isn't General Changsun sick in bed?" How did you get involved in this? ”

Cui Junsu sighed: "He is indeed sick in bed, and he can't even do it this time with the car to Tuyuhun, but General Changsun is brave and loyal, even so, he also wrote to the Supreme, that is, when the Holy Driver passed through Daxing, when the Supreme called the envoy over and showed me the fold, a qiē response strategy of the Western Turks, all on this fold, he said that this is also his last effort for the country!" ”

Wang Shichong secretly scolded Changsun Sheng in his heart, which is to do his best for the country, it is clearly to dismantle his own platform, it seems that Changsun Sheng has joined forces with some Guanlong families and regards himself as an enemy, this time after returning to the Eastern Capital, we must find out who these future rivals are.

Xue Shixiong sighed: "General Changsun has been in the affairs of the Turks all his life, of course he knows this, but it's a pity that God is jealous of talents, the news from the day before yesterday said that just twenty days ago, General Changsun had passed away!" ”

This time, even Wang Shichong was taken aback, and all the generals in the tent, including Cui Junsu, widened their eyes: "What? General Changsun is dead? ”

Xue Shixiong nodded: "It was twenty days ago, it was from my messenger in Daxing City, originally this expedition to the Western Regions, I still want to ask General Changsun for advice at any time, I heard that Naku Zhen Tutun intends to confront our army, I sent my own soldiers back to Daxing to ask General Changsun for advice, but I didn't expect to only catch up with his family's funeral." And ............"

When Xue Shixiong said this, he stopped, Pei Renji listened anxiously, and asked, "Dashuai, you have something to say at one time." ”

Xue Shixiong gritted his teeth: "You are also the generals of our Guanlong family, this matter is not a secret among us, General Changsun's son-in-law, Changsun Wuxian, General Changsun's wife Gao, as well as a pair of children born to him and this Gao, all drove out of the house." ”

Everyone heard that their faces changed, the internal discord within the eldest grandson's family, and the war between the sister-in-law and the stepmother was already known to passers-by, but they didn't expect that the eldest grandson Wuxian actually drove out the stepmother and the younger siblings ruthlessly after his father died.

Wang Shichong's heart moved, and said, "Where are Gao's mother and son now?" Have you returned to your parents' home? ”

Xue Shixiong nodded: "I heard that she went back to her brother Gao Jian (that is, Gao Shilian)'s house." ”

Wang Shichong nodded, and asked, "Don't talk about these private things in advance, Ambassador Cui, then how are you going to greet that Luo Khan this time?" What if he saw the scene here and was too scared to come? ”

Cui Junsu's face changed slightly: "General Wang, this is also what I am most worried about." After discussing with me a while ago, Xue Dashuai sent someone to ask General Ji Changsun, and it was for this matter that although General Changsun is now dead, you, a wise man who is well versed in Western Turkic affairs, are here, and I think you can also give us some guidance. ”

Wang Shichong smiled slightly, looked around, his face showed a look of wanting to speak and stopped, Xue Shixiong comprehended, and said in a deep voice: "Today's battle merit evaluation, that's it here first, the generals' military exploits, Ben Shuai has been entered into the merit book, everyone retreats first, Ben Shuai and Deputy General Manager Wang, and Ambassador Cui have important matters to discuss." ”

All the people in the tent saluted and retreated, and when Liu Quan passed by Wang Shichong's side, he whispered to him: "Xingman, don't forget our business, we have to hurry up about the matter of riding to the West Sea." ”

Wang Shichong nodded and replied in a low voice: "Don't worry, brother, I know it in my heart." ”

Wait until everyone walks out of the tent. Only Cui Junsu remains. After Wang Shichong and Xue Shixiong. Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "Two, what are your own preliminary plans to be able to usher in the Khan of Chuluo and complete the task of the Supreme?" ”

Cui Junsu smiled bitterly: "Wang Shilang, don't make fun of us, if we can think of any good way, do we need to go back to Daxing all the way to ask General Changsun for advice?" I have no personal relationship with that Luo Khan, and now he has been expelled from the Khan's court. We don't know where he's going, and we're worried about it! In the unlikely event that Luo Khan fled to another place, such as to the east and defected to the East-Turks, then I would have returned in vain. ”

Wang Shichong shook his head: "Don't worry about this, Chuluo Khan will not go to the East-Turks, and the most likely thing is that he will come to Li to seek refuge in his own brother Kuzhen Tutun." It's just that I guess he probably didn't know about Kuzhen Tutun's rebellion against Sui in advance, so if he gets around here now, he might panic. General Xue, the information you have there, when was the Khan Court breached? ”

Xue Shixiong replied without thinking: "It was broken ten days ago. Calculating the distance, Luo Khan should have arrived here in the past two days. ”

Wang Shichong nodded: "Then." Did you interrogate Kuzhen Tutun and if he had any contact with his brother? ”

Xue Shixiong shook his head: "I have asked, Kuzhen Tutun said that he has never received news that Luo Khan is coming, I think he should be telling the truth, the other person has been in Yiwu City, and he is not in his station." ”

Wang Shichong nodded: "That's it, I am very familiar with Chu Luo Khan, I have been doing business in the Western Regions over the years, and I have not dealt with him less, this person is very timid, even if he is on the run, he will not crash into other people's territory headlong, he will definitely send someone to reconnoitre, Kuzhen Tutun's crossbow lost Bi tribe is in the west about two hundred miles away from here, if Chu Luo Khan wants to go, he will also send someone to contact the crossbow lost Bi tribe first." ”

Cui Junsu's face changed: "It's not good, almost all the middle-aged men in the crossbow lost tribe have come to fight with Ashina Mohe this time, and Chuluo Khan will definitely know about the battle between Kuzhen Tutun and our Sui army, how can this be good?" If he learns of the defeat and runs away with the tribesmen, it will not be easy for us to find him again! ”

Wang Shichong shook his head: "It shouldn't be, the current Chuluo Khan can be said to be cornered, the Turkic clan in the east will not accept a descendant of the defeated Datou Khan, and will only dedicate his head to the Great Sui, and the west will also be cut off with the rise of Mohe Khan." Now his only hope is to get the forgiveness of our Great Sui. Based on what I know about Chuluo Khan, he should wait and see what we do next, and decide whether to attach the clan to it, or to wander around Tuyuhun in the future. ”

Xue Shixiong frowned: "General Wang Rengong said just now that after the defeat of that Baye Gu, he fled to the west, but I am afraid that most of them went to the crossbow to lose the Bi tribe, now should we quickly send troops to pursue that Baye Gu?" He can't be allowed to tell the Khan about this. ”

Wang Shichong waved his hand: "If you pursue it now, I'm afraid it's too late, and if you fight with Bayegu, let Chuluo Khan see it, no matter whether he wins or loses, it will only make him more afraid and force him to flee, so he can't send troops to pursue, but to send a messenger to comfort him with a handwritten letter from Nakuzhen Tutun ordering the surrender of his subordinates." ”

Xue Shixiong doubted: "Today we have killed so many Turks, I am afraid that these people have already hated us to the bone, at this time to send an envoy over, isn't it to send sheep into the mouth of the tiger, there is no return?" ”

Wang Shichong shook his head: "The customs of the Turks, the fighting and killing on the battlefield, are all very normal things, not too deep hatred, you see that the two Turks fought each other to the death in the past, and now they are as good as a family." In addition to the defeat of Bayegu, according to the customs on the grassland, it is more likely that the tribe of robbing the crossbow is lost, and there are only old and weak women and children left in the tribe, I am afraid that I will rob the cattle, sheep and horses for Bayegu, and I am afraid that this winter will be very sad. If you send troops back with Kuzhen Tutun at this time, if Bayegu robs the tribe, you will expel it, and you will be able to subdue the hearts of the people who have lost the tribe! ”

Cui Junsu laughed: "General Wang really knows the inside story of the Turks, but in this way, those people from the crossbow tribe who just killed our husband and son will really surrender to us?" ”

Wang Shichong said solemnly: "When the time comes, we will take Kuzhen Tutun with us, and show these people that the death of their relatives in battle is all because Kuzhen Tutun listened to slander and took the initiative to confront the heavenly soldiers, and then tell them that they still have tens of thousands of captives in our hands, and if they are obedient in the future and no longer rebel, we will pardon these people and release them back to the tribe." In this way, the crossbow lost Bi tribe must not dare to rebel again, even if there is resentment, it will only be against the people who started a war against Kuzhen Tutun, not towards the Great Sui. ”

"There is also that Luo Khan, I think he also just learned about the confrontation between Kuzhen Tutun and the Great Sui, if in the crossbow lost tribe, eighty percent can see the envoy sent by Luo Khan to find out the truth, and if it is solved well, it will definitely be able to dispel the worries of Luo Khan and return to obedience with peace of mind."

Cui Junsu's brows stretched completely: "Listening to your words, it's better to read for ten years, Cui Mou's mouth suddenly opened, and he set off to the crossbow tribe." ”

The corners of Xue Shixiong's mouth hooked: "Ambassador Cui, is it a little too dangerous for you to take risks alone?" You are an ambassador with a special mission, and if something goes wrong, I can't explain it here, so I'll wait until tonight, and I'll set out with my army and escort you there. ”

Cui Junsu shook his head: "No, listen to General Wang's words, the key this time is a quick word, if you let Nabaye Gu rob the crossbow and lose the Bi headquarters, then I'm afraid it's too late, and even the Luo Khan will be scared away, so I have to set off now, and I don't need to bring more people, three thousand fine horses are enough, with Kuzhen Tutun and a few guides, I will definitely be able to find the crossbow lost tribe." ”

Xue Shixiong was still a little hesitant and looked at Wang Shichong: "General Wang, will there really be no problem?" ”

Wang Shichong nodded: "It's okay, you can let Ambassador Cui lead the elite cavalry first, send a fierce general to escort it, and the army will pull out the camp early tomorrow morning and go to the crossbow tribe, which is only a day's journey, even if it encounters an accident, it may be met before and after." ”

Xue Shixiong's eyes flashed, he stood up, and said to Cui Junsu: "Then there is a hard trip for Ambassador Lao Cui, I will send my two sons to personally lead troops to escort them, and if necessary, they will bring the ambassador back." ”

Cui Junsu laughed: "Then let's meet in the Gaochang Country Oasis where the Crossbow Lost Bi tribe is located." (To be continued......)
