Chapter I: The Post-Turkic Khanate

On the desert, in August, it is the season of autumn high grass fertilizer. The Turks rode horses, sang pastoral songs, and grazed cattle and sheep, creating a joyful atmosphere.

Heisha City, located in the northwest of Hohhot, is the location of the post-Turkic "Southern Ya", and it is also the capital of the current Turkic Apogan Khan.

The tooth tent was the royal tent of the Turkic Khan, which was equivalent to the imperial palace of the Tang Dynasty.

The tooth tent of the silent sip is very large, with a golden eagle with a golden top, and a thick flagpole in front of the tooth tent, on which hangs a wolf's head, fluttering in the autumn wind, hunting.

The tooth tent was full of people, all dressed in luxurious brocade robes, with a rich atmosphere.

After the Turks were destroyed by the Tang Dynasty, they became a subordinate tribe of the Tang Dynasty, and were deeply influenced by the Chinese civilization, and their customs and habits were very different from the original Turks, and they were somewhat similar to the customs of the Central Plains.

Of course, the brocade robe was too expensive for only the Turkic nobles to be qualified to wear, and the ordinary Turks were still fur coats and hats.

Mo Si is tall, close to 1.9 meters tall, with a wide body, which can be said to be a tiger's back and a bear's waist, which is very powerful. A pair of eyes are particularly bright, revealing wisdom, and at a glance you know that he is a shrewd person.

He sat on a throne made of gold, holding a golden scepter in his left hand, and looked at his courtiers.

"I have gathered you together today to discuss with you how to recover the Great Turks." The silent voice was very loud, as if Hong Zhong Dalu was roaring, which was very shocking.

"Recover the Great Turks!" The ministers roared in unison, all of them excited.

Li Jing attacked Yinshan at night and wiped out **, and the Turks became a subordinate tribe of the Tang Dynasty and had to obey the dispatch of the Tang Dynasty. For decades, the Turks did not give up, and they were bent on restoring the country, and it has always been the dream of the Turks.

When the silent sip of this came to their hearts, they all yelled.

"The first Khan raised an army against the Tang Dynasty, although he made repeated gains and laid the foundation for the strength of the Great Turks, however, the Great Turks have not yet recovered the country, and Ben Khan has always regretted it." A touch of sadness flashed in Mo Si's eyes, and he said: "Until now, we have only recovered more than half of our territory, and Hui and Jiu surnamed Tiele have not surrendered. There was also a powerful Tang Dynasty in the south, and although we had defeated the Tang Dynasty many times, we were enemies in the north and south, and it was still very difficult to restore the glory of the Great Turks. ”

Some descendants believe that the reason why the Turks rebelled was because the Tang Dynasty conscripted the Turks to fight, which made the Turks unbearable and had to rebel, but this is not true.

The Turks rebelled against the Tang Dynasty for two reasons, one was that those diehards were unwilling to submit to the Tang Dynasty and were bent on recovering the Turks.

Not to mention that at that time, even in modern society, there were still Turkic descendants who wanted to restore the Turkic Empire.

Another reason is related to Tang Taizong, which is the hidden danger buried by Tang Taizong.

Li Jing attacked Yinshan at night and destroyed ** in one fell swoop, how to deal with ** has become a big problem. At that time, there were two opinions within the Tang Dynasty, one was to dismember the Turks into multiple small tribes and let the Turks stay in their homeland, that is, Mobei.

Another view is still to dismember the Turks into small tribes and to move the Turks south to the Hetao.

These two opinions were fiercely debated, and after much deliberation, Tang Taizong decided to let the Turks move south to the land of the Hetao.

This was fiercely opposed by the ministers represented by Wei Zheng, who even cited the Han Dynasty to let the Xiongnu move south, opening the door for the Xiongnu to attack the Central Plains during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, but failed to stop Tang Taizong.

For the Tang Dynasty's move, the Turks were grateful to Dade, and to Tang Taizong was grateful, respecting him as "Heavenly Khan".

The land of the Hetao is fertile and beautiful, the climate is warm, the sunshine hours are long, the vegetation grows for a long time, and it is a natural pasture, which the Turks dreamed of.

Historically, in order to get the land of the Hetao, it was not only the Turks, but also the nomadic peoples such as the Xiongnu and Xianbei.

The Turks are fighting around, don't they just want to get the land of the Hetao? In the past, so many people died and fought for so many years, but they couldn't get the land of the Hetao, but now they can get it without a single soldier, and the Turks are overjoyed, and their gratitude to Tang Taizong is also true.

However, it didn't take long for Tang Taizong to fall asleep.

Because the land of Hetao is less than a thousand miles away from Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, it is a huge threat to Chang'an.

This threat was not imaginary, but made Tang Taizong have unforgettable pain.

Soon after the Xuanwumen Incident, Jieli Khan led a hundred thousand Turkic troops from the land of Hetao, and the momentum along the way was like a bamboo, and soon reached Weishui, only one step away from Chang'an.

Fortunately, Tang Taizong was bold and calm, so that Jieli Khan finally had to retreat. Before retiring from the army, he and Tang Taizong made a brotherly alliance in the bridge, which is known as the "alliance of the bridge".

So many Turks gathered in the land of the Hetao to recuperate, if there was a sudden rebellion and an attack on Chang'an, the Tang Dynasty would not even have much time to react, would Tang Taizong be able to sleep?

After thinking about it, Tang Taizong finally decided to return to Mobei by the Turks.

As soon as this decree was made, the Turks were full of complaints and were very dissatisfied with the Tang Dynasty, but because Tang Taizong was shining, the Turks couldn't afford to provoke it, so they had to endure it.

During the reign of Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty, this resentment finally broke out, and the Turks officially rebelled and wanted to restore the territory of Fù**.

The first to rebel were Ashid Wen Fu and Ashina Fengzhi, but they were defeated by the famous Tang Dynasty general Pei Xingjian in Montenegro, and the Turks were bloodied, corpses piled up like mountains, and their strength was greatly damaged, and they could not restore the country.

Later, Ashina Fu Nian rebelled and was broken by Pei Xingjian. Ashina Fu Nian had to surrender, Pei Xingjian promised him not to kill him, and Fu Nian killed Wen Fu and surrendered because of this.

It's just that Pei Yan was jealous of Pei's frugality, and instigated Tang Gaozong to kill Fu Nian, cutting off the possibility of the Tang Dynasty recruiting the Turks. Since then, the Turks have fought bloody battles against the Tang Dynasty to the end, never to the death, and no one has surrendered.

Immediately afterwards, Ashina Gu Lulu rebelled, after his southern and northern wars, laid the foundation for the restoration of the Turkic state, and then through the efforts of Mo Si, finally in the first year of the Wu Zetian holy calendar, that is, the next year, the restoration of the country was successful, known as the "post-Turkic khanate" in history.

After the death of Gululu, his son Tuoxi was young, and his younger brother Mosi established himself as Khan.

"Great Khan, the ministers thought that although the nine surnamed Tiele and Hui Hui did not surrender, it was not a big deal." Asid Yuanzhen is tall, bright-eyed, and very shrewd, and is one of the masterminds of Mo Si, and said: "Nowadays, the most important thing for the Great Turks is to take advantage of Wu Zetian's inability to fight north, and plunder the Tang Dynasty. ”

"I'm for it." As soon as his words fell, another mastermind, Tun Yugu, immediately agreed, saying: "If the Great Turks want to restore the country, what they lack most is the mouth and fine iron. These two can only be plundered by the Tang Dynasty. ”

The population of the Tang Dynasty was tens of millions, and it reached more than 70 million during the Tang Dynasty, which was very scary. If you want to get the mouth, you can only plunder the Tang Dynasty. Because the population of the nine surnamed Tiele and Hui Hui is very small, even if these two tribes are defeated, the population growth will not be too much.

The most important thing is that Hui Hui and Jiu surnamed Tiele did not have advanced steelmaking technology and did not have refined iron. If you want to get refined iron, you have to ask for it from the Tang Dynasty.

Without refined iron, what kind of war will there be?

What else to talk about?

"Haha." Mo Si looked at Asid Yuanzhen and Tun Desire Valley, laughed loudly, and said, "What you two say is exactly what I want, and that's what I mean. We want to concentrate our forces now and have a big fight with the Tang Dynasty, it is not important to attack the city, the important thing is to capture as many people and fine iron as possible! ”

stood up violently, waved his right hand, was full of pride, and his voice was like thunder, and said: "This time, you have to beat hard until that woman feels distressed!" ”

"Khan is wise!" The ministers sang in unison.

"It would be better if we had strong support from our allies." Mo Si raised his eyebrows, a little worried.

This battle is related to the question of whether the Turks can truly restore the country, and it is a matter of great importance, and it is difficult to achieve the goal by relying on the strength of the Turks alone. If you have a strong ally and give him enough support, it won't be a problem.

"Khan, the Great Emissary asks to see." As soon as the silent words were finished, one of his guards came in quickly and reported to him.
