Chapter 349: Ashina's Territory (3)

"When I see her, I understand what it means to marry a chicken and a dog and a dog."

Luo Shixin looked at Ashina's wife and sighed: "Although she is not from the royal family, but when she got married, Yang Guang also made her a county lord, why didn't her mother's family seem to care at all when she was besieged in Yanmen?" ”

Pei Xingyan said angrily: "Such a woman, in my opinion, will be smashed to death." And that wolf cub, you look at the cruelty in his eyes at a young age, he can't be said to be an Ashina in the future. Let him grow up is a scourge, his mother is still a Han, why is his hatred of the Han people so heavy! ”

"How heavy is your hatred of the Turks, and how heavy is his hatred of our Han people!"

Pei Renji sighed and said, "However, it is really useless for these two people to keep. ”

"Yes!"

Li Xian smiled and said, "Send three hundred people to escort their mother and son to Yanmen Pass." Ashina is a pioneer general, if he sees his wife and children being arrested, he will definitely panic Ashina Jishi was originally wary of Ashina to Hu, and when the time comes, he is afraid that he will force Ashina to go to Hu to continue to attack, which can make the Turks have civil strife, and the two of them will play a big role. ”

"Shall we send someone back?"

Cheng Zhijie frowned and said, "I'm afraid that our people will also be taken down by the people of the imperial court when they arrive at Yanmen Pass." ”

"Our people in Yanyunzhai are naturally not good, but Shixin can."

Luo Shixin was stunned, glanced at Li Xian and said, "Are you planning to give me a big gift to the Luo family?" ”

Li Xian smiled and said, "When I first arrived in Yanshan, General Domonluo took care of me. If we stir up an upheaval on the grassland, how many people can be killed, how many horses can be robbed, and the grassland coalition army in Yanmen Pass will inevitably be unstable. With such a big credit, the imperial court is naturally not allowed to fall on our Yanyunzhai. Besides, I killed Wen Jiao newly, if Yang Guang knew about it, he might not hate me to what extent. Apart from your Luo family, who else can receive this credit? ”

"Thank you!"

Luo Shixin solemnly said: "Father will be happy when he knows." ”

Li Xian smiled and said: "General Luo is naturally pleased, he asked you to go north to the grassland with me, you still don't understand the truth?" ”

Luo Shixin was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly he was stunned.

No wonder his father let him lead five thousand elite horsemen to follow Li Xian into the grassland, it turned out that he had already made this calculation. Yanyunzhai is a rebel, and the imperial court will naturally not recognize it, plus Li Xian killed the emperor's most trusted eunuch Wen Jiao, and leveled countless tribes on the grassland in a row, such a huge merit that the imperial court will never recognize. My father asked him to come to receive this battle feat. It seems that the moment he received Li Xian's letter, his father had already thought of this.

And the reason why Li Xian wrote that letter to Luo Yi is that his intention is now clear when he thinks about it. Li Xian just wanted to give Luo Yi a piece of military merit, which may really include gratitude to Luo Yi for helping him before.

"Lu Thirteen"

Luo Shixin turned around and said: "Give you three hundred cavalry to return the same way, escort Ashina's children and wife back to Youzhou, as for when to send them to Yanmen Pass, please ask my father." ”

"The last general obeys!"

Lu Shisan answered, ordered three hundred elite horsemen to take Ashina's wife and son to prepare to return to Youzhou. Ashina's wife paused when she passed by Li Xian, and after hesitation, she asked, "I never thought that I would go back to Dasui in this way, I just want to know now what the fate of our mother and son will be after they go back." ”

Li Xian thought for a while and replied solemnly: "It's not a good thing to go back, maybe you also know that Shibi Khan doesn't trust your husband, and in order for his son to inherit the throne smoothly, he will sooner or later attack Ashina." If you stay in the grassland, you're just a victim. After all, you are the county lord of the Great Sui, and after returning to Youzhou, the tiger general Luo Yi will naturally treat you well. ”

"What about my son Ashnabto?"

Li Xian was silent for a while, then slowly shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”

He raised his head and looked at Ashina's wife and said, "The emperor of the Great Sui regards himself as benevolent and righteous, and has always been very generous to outsiders. If you ask him, maybe there is no room for return. ”

"Thank you!"

Ashina's wife nodded to Li Xian on horseback, then urged the horse forward, stopped after walking a few steps, looked at Li Xian and asked: "Finally, there is one more thing I don't understand, you are the rebel of the Great Sui, the emperor of the Great Sui is trapped in Yanmen Pass, why do you have to find a way to save him?" ”

Li Xian smiled and said, "Because I don't want him to die in the hands of foreigners, if he wants to die, he will die in my hands." ”

Shibi Khan's wife, the Turkic tribe Da Kedun, Yang Qiuyi, the princess of Yicheng of the Great Sui, looked at the tribal leaders who were standing in front of her, and frowned slightly.

"Ashina's grassland to Hu is 1,200 miles away from the royal court, even if the wolf cavalry is mobilized at this time, the Sui cavalry that slipped into the grassland has already fled, and it will be in vain."

Someone said.

The other person nodded and said: "There are nearly 200,000 tribes in the special service, and 30,000 wolf cavalry, although this time the special service brought 20,000 wolf cavalry to follow the Khan's southern expedition, but his tribe can't stop the attack of thousands of cavalry of the Sui people?" Moreover, the emperor of the Sui people was surrounded by the Khan in Yanmen Pass, and the Sui people did not rush to Yanmen Pass to save their emperor, how could they come to the grassland? For so many years, I have never heard of the cavalry of the Sui people daring to go deep into the grassland. ”

Ashina's face turned white with anger, and he knelt down in front of Princess Yicheng with a plop and kowtowed: "Da Kedun! You've got to send troops after those damn Han Chinese. Our Kedun and Ashinabto were all captured by the Sui people, and if we don't send troops, it will be really late. ”

Princess Yicheng thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry, your Ke Dun is still my niece, and I won't sit idly by." You go back first, and I will later mobilize 20,000 wolf cavalry to pursue the Sui cavalry. It won't take long to bring back your Kedun and Ashinabto's child, don't worry, your Kedun is also the county lord of the Sui people, and the Sui people will not have any disrespect for her. ”

"Thank you, Da Kedun!"

Ashina's envoys to the Hu tribe kowtowed again and again.

"I can send you troops, but there's one thing you have to remember."

Princess Yicheng's voice became cold: "The Sui people broke through the territory, and let the family rob your master's mother, this is the shame of your Ashina to go to the Hubu!" We Turks have a saying that a fool will not stumble twice on the same stone. Go, go for revenge, don't lose the face of the Turks. If you are defeated again, do not come to me again. ”

"Don't worry!"

The messenger gritted his teeth and said, "With the reinforcements you sent, we Ashina will definitely be able to kill all those damned Sui people when we go to the Hubu!" ”

"Ah, that's draining!"

"Ashina blindfolded!"

Princess Yicheng said in a deep voice: "You two, each take a wolf of 10,000 people and ride to Ashina's territory. If you find the cavalry of the Sui people, you know what to do. In the steppe, our Turkic tribes have never been defeated. This is the world of the Turkic tribes, to wash away the shame of being destroyed in the pastures. ”

The two generals who stayed behind in the royal court, Ah Shi and Ashina, bowed down and said, "Don't worry, no one can defeat the wolf rider on the grassland!" ”

"Go!"

Princess Yicheng stood up, waved her hand, and said, "This matter should be resolved as soon as possible, and the Khan who is fighting in the south must not be distracted." If something happened to the southern expedition because of the instability at home, we can't explain it in front of the khan. ”

She stopped the tribal leader who still needed to persuade her, looked at the people and said solemnly, "We Turks are all one family, you have to remember this. You should understand that if a tribe can unite as one, it will be invincible, and if it is hostile to each other, we don't need enemies to attack us, we can destroy ourselves. ”

After saying this, Princess Yicheng thought of her brother Yang Guang.

If the people of the Central Plains can unite as one, which tribe in the world dares to covet the splendid country of the Central Plains?

Ashina's envoy to the Hubu rushed back to organize men and horses to pursue the Sui cavalry, but it was obvious that Ashina's drain and Ashina were not very active. Although they thought that Da Kedun's words were very reasonable, they were all confidants of Shibi Khan Ashina Jishi, and they knew that the Khan had always been wary of Ashina going to the hoof.

According to Turkic tradition, the previous khan chose his successor, and if his son was not able to become the khan, then the younger brother of the old khan would succeed the khan. Among the younger brothers of Ashina Jishi, Ashina Quhu is undoubtedly the most favorable contender for the position of Khan, and he is also the most suitable candidate. The sons of Shibi Khan were too young to rule the entire steppe.

In order to prevent the Khan throne from falling into the hands of others, Ashina Jishi had long been planning to get rid of Ashina to go to the hoof.

Ah Shi and Ashina knew that in this southern expedition, the Khan would never allow Ashina to go to Hu and come back alive. Therefore, the Sui people broke through Ashina's territory to Hu, which was not bad news for Shibi Khan.

The two of them rode very slowly with two teams of 10,000 wolves, walking from the royal court to Ashina's territory for fifteen days, and walking less than a hundred miles a day according to the marching speed of the wolf horse, which was simply an incredible thing. But even so, after the two of them arrived at Ashina's territory, they still did not immediately send troops, but announced that they would rest for two days under the pretext of coming from afar.

Despite Ashina's begging for everything, the two of them just didn't agree to send troops immediately.

In their opinion, in half a month, the cavalry of the Sui people might have fled back to the south of Yanshan long ago, and after a few days, they would pretend to chase after it, and then return to the royal court.

The day after Ah Shi and the two men rode here with 20,000 wolves, Botheta hurried to their tent again.

"Two honorable Ye Hu, I just got the news."

Bo Tita said excitedly: "Just the night before yesterday, the cavalry of the Sui people attacked a tribe in the north, killing a full four thousand people and stealing more than three thousand war horses, which is only two days away from us. ”

"Damn the Sui people!"

Ah Shi scolded fiercely that time.

It's just that he wasn't angry because the Sui people had destroyed a tribe again, he was angry because of why those damn Sui people hadn't left yet! If they fled far away, then he would no longer have to go all the way with the wolf to pursue them. As for Ashina's loss of going to the Hubu, whatever, the greater the loss, the better.

"We're going to have a discussion!"

Ah Shi said to Botheta with a bad face: "You go out first, and I will naturally tell you after we have discussed it." ”

After Bo Tita reluctantly went out, Ashina was annoyed and said, "What do those damn Sui people want to do? Do you really think that with a cavalry of 10,000 people, you can disrupt the grassland? ”

Ah Shi sighed that time: "It seems that we have to send troops this time." ”

Ashina said: "Don't be anxious, didn't Bo Tita say, the cavalry of the Sui people is now thousands of miles away here, let's wait for the two to send troops, maybe the Sui people will flee when the time comes." ”

"That's it."

Ah Shi said with a smile: "Thousands of miles away, who wants to run so far?" ”
