Chapter 291: The Legend of the White Wolf

Hou Junji gave a deep look at the eldest grandson Wuji, and solemnly bowed: "Brother Xie said bluntly today, so that I can get to know those four old horsemen again!" ”

He gritted his teeth, and his resentment towards Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Qin Qiong, and Cheng Biting Jin went deep into the bone marrow. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info It's not that he can't see the intentions of the eldest grandson Wuji, but he knows that what the eldest grandson Wuji said is true. The eldest grandson Wuji really recommended him to Li Shimin some time ago, because before the recommendation, the eldest grandson Wuji found him in private and asked him to behave well, and asked him to work wholeheartedly for the benefit of the Tang Dynasty in the future. But the matter was later settled. Afterwards, he asked the eldest grandson Wuji. The eldest grandson, Wuji, just showed an apologetic look and didn't say much.

Hou Junji is not stupid, seeing the eldest grandson Wuji's expression like this, how can he not know that this matter has failed? But he only thought that Li Shimin didn't recognize him, and until today, he didn't know that it was not Li Shimin who didn't recognize him, but Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Qin Qiong, and Cheng Yanjin secretly slandered him, and the culprits of everything were the four of them.

No wonder the eldest grandson Wuji wanted to stop talking at that time, no wonder His Majesty did not reduce his weight on himself, trusted him, and did not disapprove of his own meaning at all, all of this can be explained clearly.

His temperament is intolerant of others, and he has high merits, and he is a little dissatisfied with Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Li Jing and others above him, but now he has let Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yanjin and others ruin their own big things. How can you still swallow this bad breath, and only think about how to get revenge on them and make them pay for their actions.

The eldest grandson Wuji said hypocritically: "It's not right for the virtuous brother to say this, although the second phase of Fang Du and the second general of Taicheng are inappropriate, they are meritorious ministers after all." What's more, the virtuous brother is talented, and he is not afraid that there is no room for display, if there is any trouble now, it will not be good for His Majesty to be dissatisfied! Since they say that the merits of the virtuous brother are not enough, the virtuous brother will practice hard behind closed doors in a down-to-earth manner, and when the time comes, they will fight a beautiful victory and let them beat their mouths! In this way, it is good to speak in front of His Majesty, and once again recommend the virtuous brother. To be a brother is not to believe. After the virtuous brother has achieved brilliant results, they can still say that the virtuous brother has not made enough achievements! ”

Hou Junji let the eldest grandson Wuji say this, and he also came back to his senses, and bowed again: "Thank you brother for your advice, Junji knows what to do!" ”

He raised his head, smiled gloomily, and thought indignantly in his heart: "Big, Lao Tzu can't move, but small one, Lao Tzu can't move?" Aren't you very optimistic about this kid Qin Feng? I'll let him do nothing. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji looked at Hou Junji who was sneering, and did not speak, let alone deliberately let Hou Junji go to Qin Feng's trouble. This will only make Hou Junji aware of his intentions. Moreover, he knew that Hou Junji's narrow-minded and revengeful character would inevitably find trouble with Qin Feng, Cheng Chumo, Fang Yiai, Du He and other juniors when he couldn't get angry with Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Qin Qiong, and Cheng Yanjin, so he didn't need to explain it intentionally.

Borrowing a knife to kill people and staying out of the way to watch others fight to the death is the consistent style of the eldest grandson Wuji, stabbing the knife behind his back, which makes it impossible to avoid. There's no way to hide.

On the same day, he did say to Hou Junji that he wanted to recommend it to Li Shimin, but in fact, the eldest grandson Wuji had never said such a thing in front of Li Shimin at all, just because the scheming eldest grandson Wuji knew that no one in the world would be stupid enough to ask the emperor. The eldest grandson Wuji regards Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui as his lifelong rivals, and the strong rise of Qin Feng also threatens his future status, so he found a political enemy like Hou Junji for these people, and tied Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Qin Qiong, and Cheng Yanjin together to talk about things, the purpose of which is to let Hou Junji deal with this group of small ones, and now the descendants of these four people are all in the Tiger Ben Army, Hou Junji has no strength to deal with the older generation, then, with his personality, he can only find a small outrage, so it is in line with the mind of the eldest grandson Wuji. With Hou Junji's divine blade, his eldest grandson Wuji can hide behind and sit behind to reap the benefits of the fisherman, anyway, no matter whether Hou Junji is defeated or not, he can stay out of the matter, and if he is done, he will take advantage of the situation, and it has nothing to do with him if he loses.

From the heart of the eldest grandson Wuji, he longed for Fang Du Erxiang and Qin Feng to die early, but he definitely didn't want to see the result of the defeat of the Tang Dynasty, just because the reason why his eldest grandson's family has today's status depends on the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty is good, the eldest grandson family is naturally good, the Tang Dynasty is threatened, and the life of the eldest grandson family will not be easy. What is the difference between harming the interests of Datang and digging into the ground and burying yourself. Although he is not a righteous gentleman, he has a sincere loyalty to Li Shimin and Datang. He can conspire with Yang and calculate all those who threaten his interests, but he will never do anything that will make Datang hurt.

As he expected, Hou Junji, who was blinded by authority, immediately sprayed his anger at the four famous ministers and generals of the dynasty, and soon after the eldest grandson Wuji left, Hou Junji, who was wearing civilian clothes, left the Luguo Mansion and went to Xishi.

……

Turkic steppe!

In this midsummer, patches of tender grass on the grassland burrow out of the land, and the herdsmen who have survived the winter shake their long whips and sing high songs to graze, showing a thriving scene on the surface.

In order to prepare for this crucial battle!

Jieli gathered all the tribal khans who submitted to the Turks in the court of the Turkic Khan, selected the brave men of each tribe, and launched the first large-scale hunt of the day, and he set high rewards, hoping to boost the morale of his subordinates.

Hunting is one of the Turkic customs, and it is because of this custom that the Turks are extremely powerful.

Historically, after learning more about the habits of the Turks, Li Shimin once expressed such feelings: "The Turkic director is only to ride and shoot, and when he sees the advantage, he will go when he knows the difficulty. With bows and arrows as minions, and armor as regular uniforms, the team does not line up, and the camp has no fixed place. Chase water and grass for the living room, take sheep and horses as military food, win and seek wealth, and there is no shame in defeat. There is no night patrol and no cost of building a fortress to feed food. ”

In a few simple sentences, the Turkic style is analyzed thoroughly.

Mounted archery is the foundation of the Turks, and the cultivation of this foundation lies in hunting.

Therefore, every year, the Turks will hold many large-scale hunting activities, and even use hunting as an excuse many times to confuse their opponents.

In the eleventh year of the Great Cause, the Turks took advantage of the characteristics of their army to fight and hunt, and led 100,000 troops to Yanmen, saying to the Sui Dynasty that they were hunting here, and they did not offend. In the careless situation of the Sui Dynasty, Yang Guang was trapped in Yanmen in one fell swoop, if it were not for the help of Princess Yicheng, maybe Yang Guang would have let the Turks capture.

This time it was a real hunt, and it came to the 100,000 Turkic warriors of each tribe. Divided into several columns, carpet hunting was carried out in all directions.

This kind of hunting of the Turks also makes sense, in the vast steppe. The grasslands are often dominated by wild beasts that reproduce at great speeds, not by humans. Especially the beasts that have been hungry for half a year, because hunger can become extremely ferocious, and it is a great threat to all the tribes of the steppe.

Therefore, they wanted to gather together and carry out a large-scale sweep to hunt down the beasts on a large scale, so as to protect their people from the danger of being attacked by wild beasts.

This continues for a full 10 days of activity. The place where the Khan's court was located was very lively, and it was not inferior to the assembly in Chang'an. Voices.

Everywhere you can see the warriors of all races trading with others in the Khan Court with the spoils they have hunted, most of them have no coins, and practice bartering, as long as they feel that they are worth it, whoever suffers will not suffer. According to the custom here, it is not mindful. In the past, merchants from all over the world would come to exchange things needed by the Turks, but this year, due to the approaching war, the merchants with a keen sense of smell have long been hiding, making this hunt far inferior in scale and liveliness than in previous years, but despite this, the Turks are still very lively.

"Khan. It's the Khan coming! There were sudden shouts from the lively crowd, and Jieli touched the "White Wolf King" on his shoulder with one hand!

Waved triumphantly around.

"God, it's the White Wolf King! Khan hunted the White Wolf King, long live...... Long live the Khan! ”

When the surrounding Turkic people saw this scene, they knelt down and bowed.

The Turks believe in wolves, use wolves as totems, and respect and fear wolves. In their legends, the White Wolf King is the king of all wolves of the steppe. Whoever can hunt the White Wolf King can be possessed by the wolf god and become the master of the grassland and create immortal achievements. Thousands of years ago, it was said that the Xiongnu's Mao Dunshan Yu was possessed by the wolf god. Lead the Xiongnu soldiers and horses to dominate the grassland. Those who are as strong as the Han have to be reconciled year after year. It was not until Mao Dunshan died of illness that Emperor Wu of Han was able to play with shame when he was in charge of the Han Dynasty.

Jieli actually hunted the White Wolf King, and the Turks from all over the world couldn't help but kneel down one by one to worship.

Jieli was even more proud, showing off the White Wolf King with great martial arts, as if he was really possessed by a wolf god.

Just after returning to the Khan's big tent, Jieli Khan dismissed the guards, and when there were only him and Princess Yicheng in the big tent, Jieli Khan threw the "White Wolf King" heavily on the ground, looking a little proud, but also a little embarrassed and blushing, people outside thought that this thing underground was the White Wolf King, in fact, this was not the White Wolf King at all, but a very strong gray wolf, this gray wolf was the largest one picked out by Jieli's henchmen from the many wolf corpses, Princess Yicheng had a pair of wonderful hands, stunned to become the legendary "White Wolf King". If this was in the past, he would not have done such a shameless thing by killing him, but now, in order to achieve the final victory, he had to accept the strategy offered by Princess Yicheng to unite people's hearts and boost morale.

The result was just as Princess Yicheng expected, and the appearance of the "White Wolf King" played the kind of result that the two wanted. Princess Yicheng smiled, just because she didn't need to ask to know that the "White Wolf King" had a huge effect, just because the deafening cheers outside were enough to explain everything.

Princess Yicheng saw that Jieli's face was flushed, and his expression was very strange, and she also knew that his personal heroism was rampant, and she was ashamed. So they turned a blind eye and pretended not to know anything. (To be continued.) )
