A few years ago, the Tang army once united with the Qarluq, Tongluo, Shatuo and other tribes to conquer the nest of the Hui people in one fell swoop, which made Gele Khan feel painful, and today, the tragedy that has happened has been staged again.

Cui Qianyou, the governor of Tingzhou, led 8,000 Tang troops, united with Shatuo, Tongluo, and Huangjiasi, a total of 60,000 troops, bypassing the Wude Mountain and killing them from the north.

The green grassland has been stained red with blood, and the grasslands more than ten miles north of Han'er Duo Bali are covered with corpses killed in battle, the cold wind blows the broken Huifu banner, the remnant sun is like blood, and the cold sunset is sprinkled all over this land full of despair.

At the end of a battle, the 10,000 Hui troops under the command of Prince Yidijian were surrounded by 60,000 Tang-Hu allied troops, and they stubbornly resisted, but in the end they were crushed by the wolf-like Tongluo cavalry, and the whole army was annihilated.

Cui Qianyou and several leaders were inspecting the situation on the battlefield, and the deputy general Yan Sihan presented a human head, "Dudu, this is the head of the prince of Hui, who was shot with an arrow from his humble position!" ”

"Good! Credits to you. ”

Cui Qianyou turned back to Absi and smiled: "This time I broke the enemy army and took the first place with the Luo army, which is gratifying!" ”

Arbus hurriedly said modestly: "Where! Where! This is all under the command of Cui Dudu, and we are just dogs and horses driven by Cui Dudu. ”

Ab Si has been an official in the Tang Dynasty for a long time, and he has also learned the politeness of Han officialdom, both of them laughed, at this time, Zhu Xie Duzhong, who had not spoken, snorted slightly with his nose, although the voice was very small, but it contained a trace of dissatisfaction, he was dissatisfied, originally his army was closest to Hui Su, and he should be impacted, but Cui Qianyou gave this opportunity to Absi, which made him very depressed.

Cui Qianyou glanced at him, he sneered in his heart, such a simple credit, how could he give it to Shatuo, he smiled and said: "General Zhu Xie don't worry, there will be a lot of credit, and the big credit will be later, I won't give you this pre-dinner side dish, if I guess correctly, Gele Khan will definitely send reinforcements back, then it's the real battle, I will give you the opportunity." ”

Zhu Xie Duzhong's heart was a little more comfortable, he looked at the Han'er Duo Bali City in the distance, and said excitedly to Cui Qianyou: "Then give it to us if you capture the city!" ”

"No way!"

Cui Qianyou refused him without hesitation, there was no room for negotiation, "The general has an order, Han'er Duobali must be taken by the Tang army, and all prisoners of war are disposed of by the Tang army, and you must not interfere." ”

Seeing that Zhu Xie was unhappy, Absi knew that he still didn't understand the purpose of this battle, so he said to him: "General Zhu Xie, before sending the troops, he made it very clear that all the spoils of war this time will go to the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty will give the Shatuo people land as compensation. ”

Zhu Xie Duzhong glanced at him coldly, "Of course I will keep my promise, I don't need you to order!" ”

"That's it! All right! Cui Qianyou hurriedly smiled and played a round game, "The two of you don't have to fight, just trouble the two of you to clean up the battlefield first!" How is it? ”

Although it is more troublesome to clean the battlefield and bury the corpses, but at the same time, they can also get weapons, armor and horses, they are all willing, Zhu Xie turned the horse's head and rushed away.

"Listen, sons, clean up the battlefield, leave everything useful!"

Ab Si Shi was about to leave, but Cui Qianyou gave him a look, Ab Si grabbed the reins, slowed down, and waited for Zhu Xie to be loyal and far away, Cui Qianyou whispered to him: "I just received an order from the general, the Central Plains mine is short of labor, and the ordinary herdsmen of the Hui do not need to be killed, but they can be left, but none of the Hui nobles and ministers will remain, and after the city is broken, I will hand over these nobles and ministers to you to take care of, and wait for the evening..... Do you understand? ”

Absi nodded, "I understand, but I also want Zhu Xie to be loyal." ”

"I'll tell him, go ahead! After the city is broken, I will reward you with all the armor and weapons of the Hui people. ”

Abs was overjoyed, turned his horse's head and went back to the headquarters, and Cui Qianyou gave an order, "Order the Tang army to assemble and send the troops to Han'er Duobali!" ”

．．．．．．．．

Half an hour later, 8,000 Tang cavalry soldiers came to the city of Han'er Duobali, at this time there were only 1,000 defenders left in the city, and 100,000 Hui people were panicked, as if the end was coming, Cui Qianyou ordered to use the head of the Hui prince to surrender, surrender, you can avoid the slaughter of the city, if you stubbornly resist and do not surrender, the city will be slaughtered after the city is broken.

Not long after, the city gate opened, and more than 1,000 Hui soldiers laid down their weapons, took off their armor, raised their hands and surrendered out of the city, and Cui Qianyou ordered them to be escorted to the Tang army camp to take care of them.

Soon, Lu Mo Dagan, the prime minister of the Hui Dynasty, led more than 300 noble ministers out of the city and surrendered, they knelt on the ground and kowtowed humbly, "I beg the Tang army to save my life!" ”

Cui Qianyou smiled: "Tang Jun has always been kind to those who surrender sincerely, you don't have to worry, I will arrange for you." ”

More than 300 aristocratic ministers were very grateful, everyone praised the Tang Dynasty for its broad-mindedness, praised the Tang army as a benevolent and righteous army, Cui Qianyou secretly sneered, and then turned back to Yan Sihan and said: "Take the ministers and nobles to the barracks to rest, they are all people with status, and they should not be neglected." ”

Yan Sihan agreed, and then said to everyone: "Everyone, please come with me!" I will be kind to you. ”

The Hui nobles looked at each other, they didn't want to leave the city, and Julu Mo Dagan stepped forward and said, "General, can you let us stay in the city, everyone is not used to living in the barracks." ”

Cui Qianyou's eyes narrowed with a smile, "How could it be!" Let you go to the barracks to protect your personal safety, you must know that the Tongluo people, the Shatuo people, and the Huangjiasi people are here, once they enter the city, they can't guarantee your safety, go to the Tang army barracks, at least they don't dare to mess around. ”

Everyone heard that it made sense, especially the Tongluo and Huangjiasi people, who hated the Hui people to the bone, and it was really not safe to stay in the city, but they were worried about their wives and daughters in the family, Cui Qianyou seemed to know their thoughts, so he said: "Your wife and daughter Tang Jun will protect it, and at most half of the family property will be left to you, and I can only do this." ”

As long as they can keep their wives and daughters, they also know that half of the family's production capacity is guaranteed, which is already very good, so everyone no longer insists and follows Yan Sihan to the Tang Army camp.

Cui Qianyou looked at their backs, a murderous intent flashed in his eyes, Li Qingan's order to him was to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots, leaving no future troubles, that is to say, in addition to these more than 300 people, their children must also be killed.

He gave the order, "Enter the city!" ”

Eight thousand Tang troops marched into the city of Han'er Bali, and what the Tang army has to do now is to control the capital first, and not to carry out population relocation for the time being, except for the commoners, the nobles and ministers will all be killed, which is to dig up the roots of the Hui people.

The first thing the Tang army did when they entered the city was martial law, and groups of cavalry galloped through the city, and they ordered in Turkic to rush into the streets in groups of people who were ready to flee home, and no one was allowed to leave the house, and those who violated the order were beheaded!

Soon, the streets became deserted, there was no Hui people, only the cavalry patrolling the Tang army, and the Tang army immediately began to confiscate the Hui treasury and the mansions of the Hui nobles, hundreds of thousands of furs, countless silk and satin, gold and silver and copper coins of the Tang Dynasty, accumulated wealth for decades.

'Dangchang! A series of pleasant sounds of metal impact, dozens of Byzantine gold coins rolled down from Cui Qianyou's fingers, this is three boxes of gold coins copied from a noble family owner, there are 100,000 pieces, the light of the gold coins illuminates Cui Qianyou's eyes, this kind of gold coins and Anxi silver dollars are one to two ratios, then these gold coins are worth 200,000 yuan, Cui Qianyou's eyes narrowed, money is not very important, he likes this feeling of gold heaviness.

Cui Qianyou turned back to his soldiers and said, "I have accepted these three boxes of gold coins!" ”

"General, what if someone denounces you?" The pro-soldiers were a little worried.

"It's okay, as long as you grasp this degree, the general won't punish me, accept it!"

"Yes!" Several pro-soldiers sent the gold coins to the barracks, Cui Qianyou also pondered for a moment, Li Qing'an's letter to him was very clear, strict military discipline, all armies must not be greedy for money and goods, so if he was greedy for these 100,000 gold coins, would it really anger Li Qingan?

He couldn't help but think of what Li Qing'an once said to him, 'When the water is clear, there are no fish, and he is not against the looting of soldiers, which is an effective way to boost morale, and the key is that the water cannot become muddy." ’

Li Qing'an's words, Cui Qianyou firmly remembered, and he also deeply understood the meaning of this sentence, that is, to grasp a degree, you can benefit yourself, but you must not be insatiable, so many brothers who follow him to fight the country, I believe he will not be treated badly.

It was precisely by grasping this degree that Cui Qianyou decided to accept the three boxes of gold coins, at this time, there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves outside, and a soldier shouted: "Governor, urgent military situation!" ”

Cui Qianyou was startled, and hurriedly walked out, "What's the matter?" ”

A scout who came reported urgently: "Our brothers have found an army of about 30,000 men to the south, only fifty miles from us. ”

"So fast?"

Cui Qianyou was a little strange, they only showed up last night, did Gele Khan know about them? Could it be that he also has spies? It is impossible for spies to come so quickly.

Cui Qianyou was puzzled, but he didn't have time to think about it so much, so he immediately ordered: "Let Zhu Xie come to the barracks to see me!" ”

He turned over and got on his horse, hurriedly urged the war horse, and galloped towards the military camp outside the city, Cui Qianyou ran all the way back to the camp with more than 100 cavalry, and after a while, Zhu Xie was loyal and arrived, although he was responsible for cleaning the battlefield, but he was still unhappy in his heart, the equipment of the Hui army was not good, it was all leather armor, and the knives and spears were also poor, far from being compared with the weapons and equipment of the Tang army, which made him very disappointed in his heart.

"Cui Dudu, are you looking for me?"

"Hmm!" Cui Qianyou nodded and said with a smile: "Are you satisfied with cleaning the battlefield?" ”

"I'm not too satisfied, the things of the Hui people are not good!"

Cui Qianyou smiled, looked at him and said lightly: "Then how do you want to be satisfied?" Do you want to go back to the treasury of the people? ”

"Nope! No! Zhu Xie shook his head and denied it, "Since I promised the governor, how can I go back on his word again?" ”

"And what do you want?" Cui Qianyou looked at him.

"I want Han'er Duobali, I want this land!" Zhu Xie is loyal and does not hide the ** in his heart.

Seeing Cui Qianyou's brows, he immediately said: "I know that I need to exchange military merit for it, I am willing, but I hope Cui Dudu can give me a chance." ”

Cui Qianyou smiled, "I invited you to come to give you this opportunity, I just received a report from the scout, about 15,000 Hui troops are coming to Han'er Duobali, I am about to lead the army to meet the battle, are you willing to be the vanguard?" ”

Zhu Xie duly calculated in his heart, although the fifteen thousand Hui army, although it was comparable to his army, but his equipment was a little better, there should be no problem, he immediately agreed, "I'll go to meet the battle!" ”

"Good! The Shatuo Department was the vanguard, and I immediately led the army to meet it. ”

Cui Qianyou looked at Zhu Xie and rushed away, the corners of his mouth showed a mocking smile, Shatuo people claim to be the wolves of Jinshan, but he knows that the wolves of Jinshan are not only fierce, but also extremely cunning, in terms of cunning, this Zhu Xie is far from loyal! He is a fool, he came to be the leader of the Shatuo people, and it can only be said that the Shatuo people need to pay the price for their choice.

He then said to his soldiers: "Go and get me Abs and Ajeli at once!" ”

．．．．．．．．

Cui Qianyou has always wondered why the Hui people know so quickly, it is because he has entered a misunderstanding that the non-Hui reinforcements do not come, in fact, this army rushing to Han Er Bali is not the Hui army, but the army of Fu Gu Jin, he led 20,000 tribal troops and 10,000 Shi Siming's army, all the way to the gallop, and finally arrived at Han Erduo Bali.

Fu Gujin slowly reined in the reins of the war horse, he had just received a report from the spies in front, a cavalry team had appeared ten miles away in front of him, about 15,000 people, the spies described most of them wearing white cloaks, Fu Gujin guessed that this was the Shatuo cavalry, one of Li Qing'an's lackeys, his father had dealt with this cavalry many times.

They are from Han'er Duo Bali, so does it mean that something happened to Han Erduo Bali? Moreover, the Shatuo people live in Juyanhai, and when they came to the hinterland of the desert, it can only be said that the original tragedy appeared again, and the Tang army, the Tongluo army and the Shatuo people broke through the nest of the Hui people again, it must be like this, he came one step late.

"General Servant, what are we going to do?" Zhu Xicai, the general next to him, asked.

Fu Guzhen didn't hesitate, he only said one word, "Fight!" "They didn't have a choice, they were already in ruins, they didn't have food to go back, and their spies didn't find any other troops, which means that there is only one army of the Shatuo people to fight.

If they find that the other party's army is more than them, they will flee away, if they are less than them, they will pounce like wolves, so they can use the strategy, he has decided to eat this army, he pondered for a while, and then said to Zhu Xicai: "We can divide the army into two ways, I will lead 10,000 troops to lure the enemy, you lead 20,000 troops to retreat, and when I entangle the other party, you will outflank and go up." ”

Zhu Xicai nodded and praised: "This plan is wonderful! ”

He turned the horse's head, waved his hand, and the 20,000 army followed him backwards, gradually getting farther and farther, Fu Guzhen held the horse's head and waited, he squinted and looked ahead, at this time he had seen a black line at the end of the grassland, coming! He sneered, annihilated all the Shatuo people, and he went to Juyanhai to claim the king.

"The whole army is ready to fight!"

10,000 servant cavalrymen raised their spears and lined up in a neat formation, ready to meet the Shatuo people.

On the grassland, Zhu Xie Duzhong led 15,000 Shatuo cavalry to intercept the target.

"Chief!" A cavalryman rushed to report, "The other side has only 10,000 troops, not 15,000 men!" ”

Zhu Xie Duzhong squinted his eyes and looked at the army opposite, he didn't feel like 15,000 people, obviously less than them, he couldn't help but smile contemptuously, Cui Qianyou said that this was the army that came back to rescue, he felt that it was impossible, that was so fast, this was at most the army that came back to urge food, just to give them a tooth sacrifice.

He turned back and shouted, "Have you seen it, brothers? Our trophies are here, let us prove that the swords of the Shatuo people are sharper than those of the Tongluo people, and Han Ear Bali will be the land of the Shatuo people! ”

"Han's ears are eight miles!"

"Han's ears are eight miles!"

The Shatuo cavalry was full of emotion, and everyone was extremely yearning for this rich land under their feet.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

The Shatuo cavalry broke out, and the horse's hooves galloped suddenly on the grassland, and went to the Hui cavalry, 15,000 cavalry galloped, overwhelming, like a landslide tsunami, Zhu Xie was loyal enough to take the land under his feet, which is related to the future prosperity of their Shatuo people, he waved his war knife and roared wildly: "Kill it, let the Hui people crawl under our feet!" ”

He also gave the order to attack, and he also shouted: "Brothers of the Servant Bone Division, we must live!" ”

"Live!"

10,000 servant cavalry roared loudly, urging the horses to attack, and the boundless herd of war horses galloped on the grassland, the battle flag was flying, and the spears were like a forest.

The two cavalry rushed from north to south like two black tides, getting closer and closer, and finally collided violently, and began a tragic battle to the death.....

．．．．．．．．

Cui Qianyou led the three sides of 40,000 troops to be thirty miles away, he was not in a hurry at all, the scouts sent information one by one, so that he understood all the causes and consequences, this is a cavalry of the servant bones, they are also here to sneak attack Han Erbali, but they are a step late.

The other party is very cunning, 30,000 cavalry, even with 10,000 cavalry to lure the enemy, this is good, what he needs is this effect, he glanced at Absi, saw that his face was expressionless, so he asked with a smile: "General Absi, do you and your subordinates think I have gone too far?" ”

Arbus shook his head, "My subordinates only listen to my thoughts, they don't have any ideas. ”

"So what do you think? I'd love to know. ”

Abs smiled faintly, "I don't know the current affairs, so I take the blame!"

Cui Qianyou stroked his palms and laughed, "It is their luck that Tongluo has a leader like you, and I also wish Tongluo to build a country as soon as possible and guard the western gate for the Tang Dynasty!" ”

"No!" Absi shook his head, "Tongluo will not guard the door for the Tang Dynasty, we will only leave the gate of the Tang Dynasty far away and be a beacon tower for the Tang Dynasty." ”

Cui Qianyou's smile disappeared, he nodded lightly, and said in a rare sincere tone: "General Absi, you are more sober than me!" ”

At this time, the book's famous cavalry came galloping from afar, and reported loudly: "Report to the governor, the Shatuo army was attacked by the enemy left and right, and was defeated, with extremely heavy casualties, reaching more than seventy percent, and General Zhu Xie was also unfortunately killed!" ”

Cui Qianyou sighed softly, and he immediately ordered: "The whole army is dispatched to rescue the Shatuo army!" ”

．．．．．．．．

In April of the third year of Qingping, the Shatuo people encountered the army of the servant bone department in the north, especially the light enemy, 15,000 Shatuo people were attacked by 30,000 servant bone cavalry, and suffered heavy casualties, when the combined army came to the rescue, the servant Gu Jin had already led the victorious army away, leaving only a piece of dead corpses and wounded soldiers on the grassland.
