Wen Mutie deliberately concealed the truth, perhaps he did not realize the serious consequences of being seized by the Sui army scouts, he just wanted to evade responsibility, but it was his decision that made the judgment of Chu Luo Khan deviate, Chu Luo Khan did not turn around in time to move eastward, but accepted Kang Sumi's suggestion, and the army continued to march towards the Yellow River, posing as if it was going to cross the Yellow River and advance westward.

Quite echoingly, Zhang Xuan led the army not immediately south after exiting the Luliang Mountains, but stopped in Jingle County, as if he was watching every move of the Turkic army from afar.

Both sides are playing dumb riddles, but the only person who knows the answer to the riddle is Kang Sumi, the advisor of the Khan of Chuluo.

Kang Sumi did not immediately follow Chu Luo Khan to the Yellow River, but stayed and waited for Wen Mutie, and his reason was also very good, he must find out the real reason why the Sui army withdrew.

The rear army led by Wen Mutie joined Kang Sumi at night, and the army was temporarily stationed.

Inside the big tent, Wen Mutie looked at Kang Sumi a little nervously, "Are you saying that we can't cross the Yellow River at all?" ”

Kang Sumi nodded slowly, "We are only going west to attract the Sui army to the west of Luliang Mountain, our army will wait in the area of the mountain pass, once the Sui army comes out, the Khan will cut the Sui army into two sections with the absolute superiority of cavalry, annihilate their tens of thousands of front troops, and then concentrate on pursuing their rear army, so that the main force of the Sui army will be annihilated by us in one fell swoop, and the whole situation will be completely reversed, but I never thought that the fish that had been hooked actually slipped away again, the Khan was very angry, and the consequences were very serious, It is likely that we will be completely annihilated by the Sui army instead. ”

Wen Mutie's face was red and white for a while, he knew very well in his heart why the Sui army retreated eastward, it was because of his own negligence, which exposed the details of the Turkic army, Wen Mutie bowed his head deeply, and his heart was extremely uneasy.

Kang Sumi glanced at him and said: "Actually, I feel that the centurion who sent the letter did not tell the truth, he looked different, please tell me the truth, is it the Sui army that attacked the logistics convoy?" ”

Wen Mutie couldn't deny it anymore, he let out a long sigh and said, "The Sui army didn't attack our rear army, it was the Sui army scout who stole a camel with four rafts on it. ”

"Sure enough, as I expected, but why didn't the general tell the truth?"

"I didn't know that the consequences would be so serious, I just thought it was a trivial matter, if I knew that the consequences were so serious, I would never hide it!" Although Wen Mutie swore an oath, he couldn't hide his weakness.

"Is the general going to confess to the Khan?"

"This ......"

Wen Mutie hesitated, he knew Chu Luo Khan very well, don't look at everyone who thinks that he is Chu Luo Khan's henchman, in fact, it is not like that at all, if he really thinks that he is a henchman, will he abandon himself and retreat north that night?

Churo Khan didn't trust anyone at all, and once he knew that he didn't tell the truth, the consequences would be unimaginable, and he would definitely kill himself.

Beads of sweat flowed from Mu Wentie's forehead, and he said for a while: "I don't want to ..... this matter for the time being." Confess to the Khan. ”

"Isn't the general afraid that I will complain to the Khan?"

"You-"

Wen Mutie looked up at Kang Sumi, and saw him looking at him with a smile, he suddenly understood, this person had long known that he had not told the truth, but he had not revealed it to the Khan, it turned out that he had other intentions.

"Just say it! What do you want me to do? Wen Mutie gritted his teeth.

"Actually, I only need the general to promise one thing."

Kang Sumi took out a bunch of parchment rolls from his arms, unfolded the parchment rolls, and said with a faint smile: "A new high priest will be elected tomorrow, and our current high priest still wants to continue to serve, if the general supports it, just press a handprint below!" ”

Wen Mu Tie's full name is Sheli Wen Mu Tie, is the younger brother of the chief of the Turkic relics department, their tribe is a relatively large tribe of the Turks, living in the north of Yinshan, this branch falls in the Turks with a high status, has been surrounded by the Luo Khan.

Wen Mutie was illiterate, and his report was also written by his henchmen, so Kang Sumi showed him this parchment scroll, and he was at a loss, and he didn't know what was written on it.

But one thing Wen Mu Tie knew very well was that once he pressed the mudra, it represented the relics ministry to support Mo Aaron as the successor of the Turkic high priest.

Wen Mutie hesitated and said, "I can't read, can you let my subordinates read it for me?" ”

Kang Sumi shook his head, "This matter is extremely secret, and it cannot be known to any outsiders, let alone the Khan, and you also know the Khan's attitude towards the High Priest." ”

Of course, Wen Mutie knew that the contradiction between the khan and the high priest had become public, and the khan would never allow the high priest to succeed him.

Wen Mu Tie and his brother Sheli Yuanying were not opposed to Mo Aaron continuing to serve as the high priest, and he could support it, but he didn't know what was written on the parchment scroll, so he was a little hesitant.

At this time, Kang Sumi saw Wen Mutie hesitating, so he put away the sheepskin roll, and said lightly: "If the general refuses to support Mo Aaron, then I will not be reluctant, but I also fulfill my responsibilities, this is a business matter, I am just right about things and not people, I hope the general will not blame." ”

Wen Mutie sighed, "Okay! I just agreed, but I was right, and I just supported Moaron to continue as high priest. ”

"Of course, what does the general think is the matter?"

Kang Sumi unfolded the parchment roll, and Wen Mutie smeared his palm with a layer of sticky ox blood, and pressed his entire palm on the parchment roll.

Wen Mutie is suffering from illiteracy, if he is literate, he will understand that the text written on it is not at all to support Mo Aaron to continue to serve as the high priest, but to support the second brother of Luo Khan, Ashina Ambi, as the new Khan.

Kang Sumi was a confidant of Mo Aaron, who had already decided to abolish the Churo Khan and establish a new khan, but he needed the support of the Turkic tribes, Mo Aaron was active in the steppe, and Kang Sumi was ordered to seek support in the army.

Kang Sumi took advantage of Wen Mutie's illiteracy weakness, and seized his handle to conceal the truth, and tricked Wen Mutie into pressing his handprint on the parchment roll.

.........

After the Yellow River runs out of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, it is a huge zigzag in the Central Plains again, the Yellow River flowing between Qin and Jin is the east side of the 'several' zigzag, here it transitions from the plateau to the plain, and encounters a huge mountain fault, it forms the famous Qin-Jin Grand Canyon, the water flow is turbulent, roaring and rushing, it is the most difficult voyage on the Yellow River.

However, north of Yan'an County, the water potential of the Yellow River is slightly slow, and the general ferry boat can cross the Yellow River, but this kind of gentle water is also relative to the canyon cliffs in the south, which is only a kind of superficial gentleness, in fact, the underwater undercurrent is agitated, and there are many whirlpools, as long as you are not careful, the boat will capsize and die.

After continuing its westward march on the Khan's orders, the Turkic army arrived the next morning at Linquan County, which was close to the Yellow River, and like the other counties of Loufan County, Linquan County was also an empty county, which was now garrisoned by 20,000 Turkic troops.

The commander of the former Turkic army was named Zhifu Sili, who was the chief of the Turkic Obsessive Division, and led 20,000 local warriors to follow the southern expedition of Chuluo Khan.

When the army of Luo Khan arrived in Linquan County, he lost his strength and went out of the city to welcome the Khan's arrival.

"See Khan!" Zhi Sili led a dozen commanders to kneel down on one knee and salute the Khan.

Chu Luo Khan waved his horsewhip, "Get up! ”

Zhizhi Sili stood up, and said to Luo Khan: "Qiyu Khan, the county town is empty, all the people do not know where to go, the grain and valuable soft have also been taken away, only some coarse benzene is left, but the eighty-three wells in the city can be used, which can solve the problem of drinking water for the army." ”

Chu Luo Khan snorted, like other counties in Lou Fu County, he expected that someone was strange, and he asked again: "What is the situation of the Yellow River?" ”

"Back to the Khan, the surface of the Yellow River is gentle, but the undercurrent below is turbulent, the humble have been tried, the small raft can not float on the river surface, it will soon overturn, if the medium-sized raft only carries twenty people, it can barely cross the Yellow River, but it cannot carry horses, if it carries horses, it is easy to lose balance."

Chu Luo Khan's face was very ugly, if there were no horses, how could they return to the steppe? What is the difference between crossing the river and not crossing!

At this moment, a soldier rushed forward and reported to Zhi Sili urgently: "General, go and take a look, there are unknown ships on the Yellow River." ”

Stubborn Sili was taken aback, and hurriedly said to Luo Khan: "Khan, go and take a look first." ”

Chu Luo Khan whipped his horse fiercely and took the lead in running towards the city....... (To be continued.) )
