Chapter 669: Civil Strife in the Western Turks

Long Li Po went to sleep early, recently Xu Yi led three thousand Grim Reaper to sit in Gaochang, he felt a lot more relieved, although Xu Yi was thirsty for killing, but in this place in the Western Regions, no one dared to provoke the army of the Tang Dynasty.

"Prime Minister, something is wrong."

Long Li Pozhun was awakened by Xu Yide's voice, and couldn't help frowning and got up, and couldn't help but say, "General Xu, what's going on?" You're coming to my mansion so late. ”

"The Turks are coming." Xu Yi's face was gloomy, and he said: "I just got the news that Tongye Hu Khan was killed by He Molu, and his son Ashina Lili was escorted towards Gaochang by Ashina Ni and Ashina Yun, and behind them, there were about thousands of cavalry in pursuit. Xu Yi said with a cold snort.

"Something big has happened to the Western Turks this time." Long Su Po couldn't help but change her complexion, and said, "What is He Modu?" He was the uncle of the Khan of Tongyehu, why did he kill him? At present, the Eastern Turks are invading, and the front-line army is in need of the Tongyehu Khan to preside over the overall situation, at this time, He Molu killed the Tongyehu Khan, once it is transmitted to the front line, I am afraid that the army's morale will be in chaos, and the Western Turks may collapse instantly. ”

"I'm afraid that this matter has a lot to do with the Eastern Turkic Jieli Khan." Xu Yi also said with some worry: "The emperor is now focusing on recuperation and recuperation, and is accumulating strength to deal with Li Yuan's old thief. At this time, Jieli Khan was not constantly expanding his strength, and this westward expansion was probably also worried about the expansion of the emperor's strength. ”

"Ashina Ni came at this time, on the one hand, to save us, and on the other hand, to go to his own tribe through Gaochang." Long Su Pozhun quickly got dressed, walked out with Xu Yi, and said as he walked: "General Xu, the changes in the Western Turks, you must tell the emperor immediately, and let General Yan prepare." It is possible that the army will go to Gaochang immediately, what kind of person is He Modu? We don't know, but Ashina came to Gaochang, and he will definitely not let them go in order to cut the grass and eradicate the roots. The general should also be prepared at this time. ”

"Don't worry, as long as the army doesn't come, our Shura army will definitely be able to block the other party." Xu Yi patted his chest and said: "It's just that without the emperor's consent, you let Ashina come to Gaochang, I'm afraid this is not a decision you can make!" ”

"When did the lower officials let them enter Gaochang, but this is Gaochang, and it is our Datang territory. If you want to come here, I'm afraid you need the permission of our Datang! Long Su said proudly, and there was a hint of cunning in the depths of her eyes.

"You're ruthless." Xu Yi nodded, pointed at Long Su Pozhun and said, he knew that this was the only way at the moment, he could only block the pursuers behind him, but he must not let Ashina force go to the Central Plains from Gaochang, otherwise, it would cause a war between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks. In the unlikely event that the Western Turks and the Eastern Turks were united because of this, it would be the great enemy of the Central Plains.

Under the city of Gaochang, the three of Ashina led hundreds of cavalry to rotate under the city, and they looked at the city wall. The city wall was brightly lit, and there seemed to be a lot of figures shaking, but there was no joy on the faces of the three people.

The cavalry in the rear did not pursue, it was not that they did not want to pursue. Instead, he is considering whether to pursue, after all, the Gaochang in front is from Datang. Ashina Ni believed that He Molu would definitely pursue. So the three of them found a way to enter Gaochang, rest for a while, and then go to Datang.

"Here they are." Ash Nayun looked behind him, only to see countless torches appear behind him, the ground shook, obviously countless cavalry came slowly, and the three of them suddenly showed nervousness.

"Mud, what now? I'm afraid this Datang won't accept us, so we might as well take a detour to Ashina Buzhen. Ashina couldn't help but urge.

"No." Ashina shook his head without thinking about it and said: "Ashina Buzhen is also ambitious, the Khan died, whether he will be loyal to the secret service, no one knows, where he went, there are no soldiers and horses in the hands of the secret service, Ashina Buzhen is afraid that he will not assist the special service." ”

"He dares." Ashina's face was gloomy, and he snorted coldly. He felt insulted, and even had a trace of resentment towards Ashina at this moment.

"Don't make any noise, look, the gates are open." Ashina Yun suddenly pointed to the opposite city gate and said. Ashina Ni also found that the gate of Gaochang City was opened, and countless cavalry roared away, and when the three of them were surprised, they saw the cavalry roaring away.

"Three, this is the Tang Gaochang Kingdom, not the Turks, you better leave early!" Long Su Po Zhun pointed to the distance and said.

When Ashina Lili was reprimanding, he saw Ashina Yun shaking his head and pointing to the distance, and Ashina Lili found that there were still some saluting grains and grass in the distance, but they were given to everyone.

"Three, there are few soldiers in Gaochang, I'm afraid I can't keep three, General Xu has already led three thousand elites to resist the pursuers, but I'm afraid the effect is not great, the three of them should leave here quickly! If you stay in Gaochang, not only will Gaochang not be able to protect the three, but even Gaochang will be attacked by the other party. Long Su Po said persuadedly.

"Needless to say, the prime minister will leave for the time being, and there will be a period later." Ashina Ni knew that Long Su Po would not be able to decide all this, and it was very good to be able to resist the pursuers for a while, where could he force anything, so he hurriedly led everyone around Gaochang and rushed towards Chang'an.

"It's okay to have this Ashina mud, but this Ashina Lili is not, but if the Turks let someone like Ashina Lili be called a Khan, it will be good news for my Datang." Long Su Po looked at the backs of the two and shook his head slightly, he thought that Li Xin would not necessarily agree to help the Western Turks at this time, and the most important thing for the current Tang Dynasty after several years of fighting was to recuperate in order to have a chance to deal with Li Yuan and the Turks.

"Father, the front is Gaochang, that is the place of Datang, if we attack at this time, I am afraid that we will provoke a war with Datang!" Fifty miles outside the city of Gaochang, Ge Shu, the leader of the crossbow lost Bi tribe, led a thousand elite cavalry to chase and kill Ashina Niyu and others. It's just that when they got to the vicinity of Gaochang, they didn't dare to attack anymore.

"They have entered Gaochang, if they don't attack, He Molu will not let go of our father and son." Ge Shu looked at his son Saiglu and said: "He Molu is going to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and only by killing Ashina Lili and Ashina Ni can it be possible to grasp the power of the Western Turks." ”

"He Molu is just a little khan, if he wasn't promoted by the Tongye Hu Khan, he would be nothing, and now he assassinated the khan, and he still wants to be a khan, I'm afraid he would have colluded with the Jieli Khan in the east." Seglo said dissatisfied.

"Don't say it." Ge Shu also had a gloomy face, in fact, He Molu inherited the position of the Great Khan, and the leaders of many tribes were dissatisfied, but now that the army of Jieli Khan was outside, it was possible to attack the Western Regions at any time, and in desperation, he would let He Molu inherit the position of the Great Khan.

"Father, it seems that an enemy is coming." Segre suddenly pointed into the distance. I saw countless torches in the distance quickly killing, the earth shook, the father and son's faces changed, and they quickly waved their hands, and the army behind them suddenly launched an attack formation, ready to attack the place.

"It's the cavalry of the Tang Dynasty." Ge Shu soon saw the cavalry killed in the distance, his face suddenly became much worse, the black cavalry was like a ghost, and soon rushed to the front of the father and son, Ge Shu's face tightened, looking at everything in front of him, these soldiers were very angry, obviously after countless battles before they came back to life, such an army formed by a group of soldiers, let him be careful.

"Father, what a cavalryman." Seglo looked at the soldier in front of him, and there was a hint of horror on his face, he was not a fool.

"There are 3,000 cavalry, and it should be that all the cavalry in Gaochang have been dispatched together." Ge Shu glanced at the torch and said softly: "Withdraw the troops!" I'm afraid we can't stay in the Western Regions, so we'd better go back to our tribe as soon as possible. If the Tang Dynasty does not send troops, it is better, if it sends troops to support Ashina Ni or Ashina, we will defect to their command, He Molu is definitely not the opponent of the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty soldiers are sharp, which can be seen from these cavalry in front of them, no wonder the Tang Dynasty dares to defend Gaochang with 3,000 elite cavalry, such an army can not be killed without 10,000 people or even more. The other party is a cavalryman, and it is difficult to stop it. ”

"What my father said is very true, anyway, He Molu doesn't have many soldiers and horses, and the soldiers and horses in the tooth tent are probably to guard against the Jieli Khan, and even Ashina will not let him be this Khan honestly, and he will definitely fight with troops. Where there's time to care about us. Seglo nodded in agreement.

His own soldiers and horses are not as good as the soldiers and horses of the Tang Dynasty in terms of quantity, and they are not as good as the other party in terms of elite, and Ge Shu's father and son are not fools, how can they work hard for He Modu! He just sent someone to inform He Molu, and led the army back to his tribe.

"It's acquaintance." Xu Yi led the army to look at the back of Ge Shu's father and son leaving, and a trace of sarcasm suddenly appeared on his face.

"Drive, drive!" Rushing in the distance, the leader is really Long Su Po Zhun.

"The Turks are gone?" Long Su Po said curiously.

"I left, I didn't even fight a single face, and when I saw my three thousand elite iron horses, I ran away." Xu Yi said disdainfully: "It is said that the Turks are powerful, but that's it." ”

"General Xu, it's not that the other party is useless, but He Molu has just ascended the throne and become a khan, and his subordinates are not convinced, and many people don't want to die for him." Long Su Pozhun shook his head and said: "It seems that this time Jieli Khan has seized a good opportunity, and the war between the two Turks will soon have a result." (To be continued......)
