Steppe, in the tent of the Turki army. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Tuli was dressed in civilian clothes, and a white bandage was tied around his right arm, and there was a faint trace of blood on this bandage.
Today, he fought against the most powerful army of Jieli.
Jielijun's performance today is very tenacious, although it is a retreat, but it also makes Tuli bear a heavy price, he himself was hit by a dark arrow in the chaos of the army, if it is not for the leader of the personal guard to push him away at a critical moment, then, the location of the injury is not the left arm, but directly pierced his neck.
So far, Tuli is especially scared and rejoicing.
At this time, he was furious with a cold expression: "I must find out who did the good deeds, and if I find out, I will definitely destroy the nine clans." "That arrow came from his own army, it was a hidden arrow that had been planned for a long time, at that time, the whole army had all pressed up, and Tuli watched the battle attentively, not at all prepared for this sudden change.
Today's battle, for Tuli. It was an extremely important battle, in this battle, he dispatched all the troops loyal to him, and several times the number of Jieli, he expected to deter all kinds of disobedience and instigation under his command with a smooth and dripping performance, but the victory was imminent, but he fell, causing the army to collapse for this, so that Jieli turned defeat into victory, chasing dozens of miles, only in this battle, he lost more than 20,000 elites, this heartache is more painful than the wound on his shoulder.
"What do you think about this?" Tu Li lost his temper and asked Zhu Chang, who he relied on very much, with a gloomy face.
Zhu Chang understood that Tuli was asking about the arrow, so he smiled calmly and said, "King Khan, my subordinates think that this is not a good thing!" ”
Tuli looked at him coldly.
"King Khan, you should rejoice, not be angry." Zhu Chang smiled calmly and said, "Today's dark arrow lets us know that there are still restless people inside us. If this happened today at Armageddon, it would be really bad. Fortunately, this battle is just a big battle on a large scale. With our current abundant troops, 20,000 people can still afford to lose. ”
Tuli was silent for a while, nodded and smiled: "Sir is right, I took today too seriously, and almost lost my mind due to a momentary failure." I understand, I got Mr. at a critical time, just like Liu Bei got Zhuge Liang during the Three Kingdoms, you are my Zhuge Liang. ”
Tu Li said respectfully, today's series of events, he also became more and more aware of the importance of a wise strategist, so he respected Zhu Chang very much and relied on him as a confidant.
"King Khan is gracious." Zhu Chang returned the salute.
"Sir, what shall we do next?"
Zhu Chang said: "King Khan, his subordinates think that the important thing at present is to rectify the interior. Don't look at our current strength, great potential, in fact, there are serious problems inside, to put it bluntly, that is, people's hearts are different, face to face is not compatible, the leaders of the various departments are not really refuge, they are just taking refuge in interests, these people have no loyalty at all, once the Khan King is in trouble, they will definitely betray you as they betrayed Jieli at the beginning. At that time, many internal problems will not be exposed for a long time, and they will be completely defeated. On the contrary, Jieli's strength is much smaller, but those who follow him are consistent with him, so they act in unison and together according to orders when fighting. The current situation is a situation in which the Khan seems to be strong but weak, and Jieli seems to be weak and strong. If we don't integrate people's hearts, no one can guarantee that what happened today will not happen. On the battlefield, if there is a stalemate, even if those people do not plot against you, they just suddenly withdraw and leave, which is fatal to the Khan. People are all conformists, and if someone makes a start, others will have an excuse and reason to flee. Fortunately, there are many armies loyal to the Khan and directly under the control of the Khan, otherwise, we have no hope of victory. ”
"What the gentleman said is very true, Tuli has been taught." If Zhu Chang had said so before, Tuli would definitely not have listened. But today's big battle has dispelled his pride and pride a lot, and people have recovered some rationality.
As Zhu Chang said, the first to collapse today is the servant army, their collapse has led to an uncontrollable rout, so far, he has no hope for those who say one thing and do another, if he wants to defeat Jieli, he can only rely on his descendants. But he is also worried that if he loses too much, will he let people stab him in the back?
"The king of Khan is righteous, those people are your subordinates, and they cannot fail to obey your orders. Before, if you let them charge, they would still end up with the notoriety of excluding dissidents, but after today, they are no longer qualified to accuse the Khan King of you, they want to get benefits, but they don't want to contribute, how can there be such a good thing in the world. Zhu Chang understood Tuli's concerns, and said with a smile: "We Han people have a saying: people die for money, and birds die for food. The Great Khan may wish to promise them that whoever captures the war after that will belong to whomever he captures, and you will not take anything from it. In this case, don't those people fight hard? You know, before, we won every battle. Today, just an accident. ”
Tuli's eyes lit up, and he smiled knowingly: "Yes, today is just an accident." ”
Zhu Chang said again: "According to the foolish opinion of his subordinates, now the investigation of the traitor will be changed to the dark, first, it can avoid rumors; Second, we can claim that Jieli was scared and was not far from failure, so he went against the will of the wolf god and made a despicable and shameless plot. ”
"That way, the tribes work harder." Tuli said with some excitement.
"The Khan is wise."
Tuli summoned the guards and told them to start acting according to the plan, and at the same time, he also recalled the cronies of the traitor.
Tuli was about to speak and continue to ask questions, but he heard a woman's crisp and beautiful voice from the door: "Father Khan, I'm back!" ”
Tuli glanced up at the door, but asked in surprise and joy, "My baby Yun'er, you are finally back." ”
Ash Nayun was about to speak, but his pretty face changed color, and he suddenly rushed to Tu Li's side, and said loudly: "Father Khan, why are you injured, are you seriously injured...... Ash Nayun thought of the gloomy military camp along the way, and then saw the wound on Tu Li's arm, and her pretty face turned pale in an instant.
Speaking of this, she burst into tears and said, "Father Khan, who hurt you?" Isn't it Yi Nan? Isn't it the sinister villain of Yi Nan? ”
"Huh?" Tuli and Zhu Chang glanced at each other, and they both saw surprise from each other, how could this little princess who didn't care about everything so definitely suspect that Yi Nan was coming?
Suddenly, he stroked Ashinayun's soft hair with his right hand, and when he saw the dust on his beloved daughter's face, he regretted it in his heart, and in order to comfort her, he deliberately waved his injured left arm in pain, and comforted him with a smile: "It's okay, it's just a little injury, it's not a big deal." ”
Zhu Chang was a little moved, so what kind of injury is a small injury, a serious injury that is deep to the bones. It is said that Tuli loves this little princess the most, and it seems to be true. Ashinayun didn't notice it, but he saw fine beads of sweat on Tuli's forehead, which was obviously in extreme pain.
"It is said that tigers do not eat children, and they all say that everyone has a soft place, and it seems that the same is true of Xiaoxiong." Zhu Chang looked at Tuli a little differently.
"Where have you been these days. Why is there no news at all? "Tuli is pretending to be confused. After a while, after the pain disappeared partially, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Yun'er, you are also fifteen years old, why are you still as ignorant as a child, go back to your room and rest early." Also, why did you suspect your Uncle Yi Nan as soon as you came in? ”
Seeing that his father was teaching himself a lesson again, Ash Nayun pouted and was extremely dissatisfied. He puffed up and said: "Father Khan, don't underestimate people, they went deep into the tiger's den, lurked in the Shuofang Governor's Mansion for many days, and heard an extremely important secret. ”
Ashinayun's qi came and went quickly, and when he saw that Tuli was "fine", he returned to his usual activity, like a happy lark.
"Oh?" Tu Yu said in a doting tone: "I want to listen to what kind of secrets our great heroes have discovered." ”
After a little recollection, Ashina Yun said the news he had heard in the language that had been organized along the way.
"Awesome!" This thought flashed in Zhu Chang's heart, and he immediately heard traces from Ashinayun's words, Tuli father and daughter didn't know that the Han people attached great importance to confidentiality, but he knew it in his heart, generally speaking, when he said this kind of secret, there would be light and dark guards all over the place, in case someone eavesdropped. But Ash Nayun listened to it clearly and clearly from beginning to end. explained that Qin Feng deliberately let her hear the "secret",
At the same time, he also faintly sensed Qin Feng's intentions.
That is to let the Turkic civil war continue until both sides are defeated, so that they cannot threaten the peace of the Tang Dynasty for tens or hundreds of years.
Tuli gasped and exhaled lowly.
Tuli himself is also a little suspicious of Yi Nan, because there is no definite evidence, Tu Li can't be sure that it will be him, so as not to spread it, but let Yi Nan bite back, the gain outweighs the loss, just say that he doubts.
But now, even the general of the Tang Army said that Yi Nan had different ambitions, and secretly contacted the Tang Emperor, and reached some secrets with the Tang Emperor behind his back.
Before, Zhu Chang had also reminded him to guard against Yi Nan, but he felt that Zhu Chang was too careful. Today's Tuli, thinking back to Yi Nan's incorporation of Jieli's "surrender" soldiers, seemed more enthusiastic than usual, in an instant, he knew that Yi Nan had already known Jieli's intentions, Yi Nan did not say, and vigorously promoted, obviously with the intention of taking advantage of the fisherman, suddenly, Tuli was not calm.
He is also a veteran general who has been in battle for a long time, and he knows what it means to suddenly change his elbow in the war, and what changes will it bring, and his heart is like a mirror. Because, today it has already said everything. (To be continued.) )
