is smarter than Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Li Ji and other giants, naturally not because of strength. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoCompared with these old fritters who have been tempered for thousands of years, Du He is still inferior to them in terms of overall true talent and practical learning, in addition to being able to use thousands of years of knowledge to gain some upper hand.
It's just that these giants knew Ashina's intentions from the beginning, so they were afraid of startling the snake, so they didn't dare to go too deep, and adopted the method of waiting for the rabbit to lure the snake out of the hole, intending to wipe out those people behind the scenes.
And Du He is different, he doesn't know the purpose of Ashina's association rate at all, so he is not afraid of what will startle the snake or not, and directly go deep into it, find out the detailed cause and effect, and then make a plan. In this way, I have to know more about the situation than those giants. According to the situation, it is naturally more clever.
Du He also told Li Shimin in detail how he knew about this matter, and said in a deep voice: "Just because the matter is very important, the son-in-law does not dare to act rashly, until everything is confirmed to be true, I will not come to report." "In fact, when Huangfu Haohua brought the news from Ashinakala's mother, he determined this matter based on historical memories. It's just that there was no good plan at the beginning, and it would not be good if I reported it. Now that he has a plan in his chest, he is naturally not afraid of everything.
Li Shimin was dumbfounded when he heard this, and he couldn't imagine that Du He had gradually deduced such a big conspiracy from the small matter of Ashina Association's association saying that Ashina Sheer was a "traitor", and he knew more than them, so he really didn't know how to say it.
Unthinkable!
If ordinary people heard their conversation, they would only think that the two brothers were quarrelling, where would they be like Du He, and they would be suspicious, and even risk sneaking into Ashina's mansion to inquire about the news.
After feeling for a long time, Li Shimin sighed: "I found out that not arranging for you to enter the Criminal Department was my biggest mistake. You kid has such a talent, and he is good at peeling back the details and discovering major problems. If this ability is used in criminal cases, it is guaranteed that the eyes are as wise as a torch and the judgment of cases is like a god. ”
Du He said humbly: "It's not that the son-in-law has any discernment, it's just that the son-in-law has my Tang Dynasty in his heart." Everything is important to Datang, so if you feel that there is a problem, many questions will immediately arise in your heart, and you are worried that things will affect Datang, so you will act cautiously. His words are not just flattery, after three years in Datang, he has felt the demeanor of Datang that swallows the world, and he has long regarded himself as a Datang person. Men are hot-blooded, and they think they are for the country and the people.
Li Shimin was also moved: "If all the ministers of my Tang Dynasty have the idea of a virtuous son-in-law, then why can't I surpass Alexander and become the emperor with the most powerful territory in the world." ”
Du He saw Li Shimin but really remembered this semi-fictional invincible emperor by himself, and he was happy from the bottom of his heart, it seems that he really took Alexander as the transcendent goal.
Li Shimin continued: "Since the virtuous son-in-law already knows about this, then I won't hide it from you. Since I don't know how many of Ashina's allies there are, I plan to use my example as a bait to lure this thief into the net. ”
Du He had already expected the method used by Li Shimin, and said with a smile: "Father-in-law, this method is wonderful, and it can indeed lure Ashina to form a plan." But the son-in-law felt that it was not safe enough. The Turks are known for their courage and good fighting, and their combat power is not inferior to that of our generals of the Tang Dynasty. Ashina's association has been silent for ten years, and I don't know how many warriors have been able to charge into battle in the past ten years, and the strength around him cannot be ignored. Since my father-in-law intends to use his body as bait, there must not be too many guards beside him, and there should not be too many ambushes. Under such circumstances, they certainly do not have the ability to hurt His Majesty in the slightest, but if the trapped beasts break through, we may not be able to keep them. ”
This is the question he thought of based on the sneak attack on the Jiucheng Palace by the Ashina Association in history. Historically, Ashina led 40 people to attack Li Shimin's palace, fought fiercely for a while, and finally gave up fleeing because of the heavy guards. The result was surprising, and their group actually broke through under the circumstances at that time. There are only two possibilities for this: First, the forbidden army of the Tang Dynasty cannot be weak. 2. The forty people led by the Ashina Association are all the elite of the elite.
Tang Bing is known for his bravery, not to mention Li Shimin's Praetorian Guard, and the answer is obviously the latter.
He didn't want this to happen again in history.
Li Shimin also nodded and said: "It is not unreasonable for the virtuous son-in-law to scruple, the depths of this hunting ground are lofty mountains and dense forests, in case they really break through." If you want to search them out of this mountain forest, you will have to use more than 100,000 troops, to say the least. It is indeed not good to work hard and lose money. He paused, glanced at Du He, saw that he was in his chest, and said with a smile: "Then what good ideas do you have?" ”
Du He replied confidently: "One person and some medicine." The person is Ashina Horohu, the medicine, if you want to be captured alive, you will be sweated with medicine, and if you want to die, you will be red. ”
Li Shimin pondered for a moment and said: "You mean that Ashina He Luohu is also an accomplice of Ashina's association rate, and he wants to rebel against him, let him be used by us, and use medicine to wipe out Ashina's association rate?" ”
"Not bad!" Du He said: "According to the analysis of the son-in-law, the Ashina Association led to establish Ashina Horohu as the Turkic Khan and use him to control the Turkic people. All of this is a ghost caused by Ashina's association, and Ashina Horohu is just his puppet. As far as I know, Ashina He Luohu is an indecisive person, he has lived in my Datang since he was sensible, and he has been educated by my Datang, so it is impossible to have ideological agreement with Ashina's association rate. With him as the internal response, it is easy to wipe out the Ashina Association and his party. ”
Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "If you are sure, then give it a try." I also have good news here, wishing you success. In case of...... I mean in case, if he doesn't comply, then ...... directly" He made a killing gesture.
Du He understood that if Ashina Ho Luohu did not comply, it would be tantamount to exposing everything, but instead startling the snake and falling short. But as long as he becomes dead before he says it, then there is no need to worry. At most, it's just a matter of putting some effort into setting up a fake scene.
**********
Ashina Horohu has no sleep tonight!
He is only eighteen years old this year, and he does not have the fierce and burly temperament of the Turks, but looks a little thin, with a melon seed face, thin eyebrows and small eyes, and looks a little quiet, a Turkic who does not look like a Turkic people. It's all thanks to his mother. His mother was a princess of the former Sui Dynasty and had Han Chinese descent. In his genes, he is obviously biased towards his mother, and is not as strong as his father, Tuli Khan.
As early as April, he was bewitched by Ashina's association rate, and his heart was moved under that tongue smeared with honey.
Capture Li Shimin and order him to return the land, army, cattle and sheep that the Turks have, so that the descendants of the divine wolf can return to their homeland in the steppe. Escort him all the way through the border of the Han people, return to the Yinshan tent unscathed, and then kill him, digging out his heart and liver to worship the wolf god and ancestors.
After all these years of recuperation, the grassland has been fertile and prosperous, cattle and sheep are scattered like pearls in the boundless pastures, our people will proudly belong to our tent again, and the invincible golden wolf army of the past has reappeared in the wind-blown desert.
This is the bright prospect that Ashina has repeatedly stated to him.
After hearing the magnificent description that followed, Ashina He Luohu was fascinated. As a man, having ambition is inevitable. Even the weakest person thinks about the day when he can become a human being.
Ashina Horohu was indecisive, but this did not hinder the germination of his ambitions. He, who had never been able to make up his mind, agreed under the persuasion of Ashina's association.
Although he agreed, there was some fear and some timidity in his heart. In front of the giant Datang, anyone with two hearts will feel that their soul is trembling.
Nervous!
Fear!
Excited!
Many emotions followed, destined for the birth of a sleepless night.
"Tomorrow, tomorrow is the time to act!" Ashina Horohu muttered to himself in a low voice, his expression unpredictable.
"Not bad! Tomorrow, tomorrow will be the day when your fate will return to Huangquan! ”
Just as Ashina Horohu's words fell, a clear, cold voice came into his ears.
In the peripheral vision of his vision, a black figure stood quietly in the corner.
Rumble!
It's like a thunderbolt on a sunny day!
Ashina Horohu was cold all over his body, and a feeling called fear permeated his whole body, and he was speechless in horror.
He didn't know when there was an extra person in his vast bedroom, he didn't even notice it, he didn't know how the other person got in, and he didn't know when he was standing there. But just by the posture, it can be seen that the person who came has been standing for a while.
The other party wants to shout loudly.
Boom!
In a flash of cold light, a sharp sword was already in his throat.
He clearly felt the tip of the sword just pressed against his throat, everything was just right, and he only needed to advance a little bit to break through his throat.
This sword is fast, accurate, ruthless, and spicy!
As a Turkic man, Ashina Horohu naturally learned art since childhood, and may not be as brave and good at fighting as his father, but also has a good level.
But in front of the sudden uninvited guest, he had no power to resist, and his heart was even more terrified. For a moment, he understood one thing, and if an uninvited guest wanted to kill him, it would be like stepping on an ant.
Tilting his head slightly, he avoided the sword attached to his throat and looked at the person in front of him.
Under the light of candlelight, the faces of uninvited guests are clearly visible.
Ashina Horohu recognized the person in front of him, with a handsome and dashing face and a high-spirited look. In Datang, he is a legend: from a gentleman to the current embodiment of bravery, courtesy, loyalty, benevolence, wisdom, filial piety, faith, and righteousness, it seems that all the praise of the incident falls on him alone!
Just like Han Xin in the early Han Dynasty - the national warrior is unparalleled!
Duhe!
A young man who was enough to make everyone jealous, the envy of everyone in one person, was standing opposite him.
