In Dugu Lin's eyes, the flame is clearly the Great Sui, its rise and its decline. It was suddenly dark in front of him, and his body shook, although he was supported by a lance and did not fall, a stream of dark black blood gurgled out from the corners of his mouth and nostrils.

"Heavy wood, heavy wood, come on, heavy wood is injured!" Seeing this scene, Luo Shixin didn't care about arguing with Dugu Lin anymore, rushed forward to support him, and shouted.

Countless concerned eyes were projected, including the county soldiers and the border soldiers under Yun Dingxing. For Dugulin, a relative of the emperor who has no arrogant taste, everyone has always had a deep respect in their hearts. Just now, I was secretly impressed that this person took the lead in battle, and he had the courage to be unstoppable. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, he was already shaking.

"Find a clean place and let Lord Dugu lie down. Zhang Jiang, you come to the back of the mountain and lead a horse! Li Xu saw Dugu Lin vomiting blood, and he was also a little panicked, and shouted orders to the soldiers.

"Hey!" Captain Zhang Jiang agreed, stumbled along the mountain beam and ran into the distance. Everyone left the barracks in a hurry after receiving the news from Ashina Gutuolu in the afternoon. The incident happened suddenly, so he didn't bring Lang Zhong with the army at all. In order to avoid being seen by the Turks, even the war horses were driven into another nearby canyon with only an entrance and no exit, and they were not around at all.

Seeing everyone busy for themselves, Dugu Lin felt a warm current in his heart. Breaking away from Luo Shixin's hand, he stood firmly, smiled, and explained to everyone: "I was a little tired from killing just now, and all my blood was surging at the moment, and my nose was broken. Stretching out his hand and wiping it between the corners of his mouth and nostrils, he smiled and ordered, "What should everyone do, hurry up and clean up, wait for Li Ergongzi to come and meet, and then go back to Yanmen to see the emperor together!" ”

"It's all like this, you still want to see the emperor!" Luo Shixin once again held Dugu Lin's shoulder socket, angry and hateful. The blood that came out of his broken nose and the blood that came out of vomit were not the same color at all, and although it was dark at the moment, the torches shone brightly on his eyes.

"Shixin, don't mess with the army's heart!" In an extremely low voice, Dugu Lin shouted.

"Bullshit, the Turks have been beaten by us and fled." Luo Shixin scolded, squatted down, and wanted to carry Dugulin out of the valley. The body behind him was like a root on a rock, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't carry it on his shoulders.

"Shixin, listen to me, let's not go back alone. It is necessary to wait for Li Ergongzi and General Qu Tutong, everyone, everyone to gather together, and then they can drive into Yanmen County. Dugulin's intermittent voice came from his ears, and Luo Shixin's heart became more and more cold when he heard it. We didn't, we didn't rush into the city like General Yuwen and live and die with the emperor, but, instead, we contained, echoed, and used troops on the periphery, but we didn't make peace with the courtesy of the monarch and the ministers. This, in addition, we are privately allied with Ashina Bone Tuolu, which can be said to be in a hurry, and also, it can also be said to be private, fornication! ”

"Shit, which one is a shit mess, I, I'll strangle him with my own hands!" Luo Shixin was so angry that he trembled all over, and tears almost rolled down his eyes. In the end, he still put Dugu Lin down and supported the other party to stand in the cold night wind and wait for news from other soldiers and horses. On leading troops to fight and grasping the fighters, Luo Shixin and Xu Zi asked themselves not to lose to Dugulin. In terms of understanding the way of the imperial court, the two of them together cannot reach half of Dugulin's size.

His Majesty the Great Sui Emperor cares most about the loyalty of others to him, followed by whether the courtiers are obedient or not, and as for the right or wrong decisions of the generals, they must be ranked far behind. At the beginning of the Turkic attack, the rear army led by Dugu Lin did not retreat to Yanmen with the Chinese army, but chose to contain the enemy in Laoxian County, which was more than 50 miles away from Yanmen, which was probably a big mistake in the eyes of the emperor. Moreover, Yang Hui, the king of Qi, has always been in his army, and if His Majesty the Emperor is unfortunately killed by the Turks, this person will be the first successor to the throne!

Dugu Lin once urged the army not to rush into Yanmen rashly, and Dugu Lin once agreed that Li Xu and Gu Tuolu should enter into a secret agreement. Hearing the news that the Turks were going to withdraw their troops overnight, he actively planned and promoted the plan of the Turks to intercept and kill them first, and then enter the city to face the saints. Although other generals participated in every decision, no one had a higher official position than Dugu Lin, and no one had a closer relationship with Yang Yong, the king of Qi, than Dugu Lin!

Luo Shixin suddenly remembered the situation in the afternoon when everyone was discussing military affairs. In the near future, the Bone Tuolu henchmen sent a secret message that the Turks were withdrawing their troops. After urgent discussion, the Sui army outside Yanmen City decided to divide the troops into four routes. A team of the two routes, led by Qu Tutong and Yao Junsu, laid an ambush on the road along the west bank of the Hutuo River. The other two rushed to the Niujiao Valley, which connected the two counties of Mayi and Yanmen, and intercepted the enemy here. At that time, Dugu Lin also added two suggestions, one of which was to act after it was dark. The second is to send someone to Lao County to inform Yun Dingxing and the King of Qi, and ask the two to lead the rest of the soldiers and horses to come to meet them quickly.

The first suggestion is well understood, the Sui army camp was very close to the Turkic stronghold, and the movement after dark was not easy to be detected by the enemy. The Turks were so busy that they did not realize that the enemy village had become an empty camp after being stuck behind them like thorns for days. As for Dugu Lin's second suggestion, at that time, Luo Shixin and Li Xu both thought that he was doing too much, and the soldiers and horses left for Yun Dingxing and King Qi were all old and weak, and even if they could arrive in time, they would not be of much help.

That's not an extra move, it's to keep people from telling the truth! In an instant, Luo Shixin and Li Xu both understood Dugulin's good intentions. I couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness.

They did not doubt Dugu Lin's loyalty to His Majesty the Emperor, in fact, if there was no Laoxian behind them, Yanmen City would have been under the control of the Turks. If Dugu Lin really wanted to make a contribution, he had at least dozens of ways to make the defenders in Yanmen City lose hope of waiting for reinforcements. However, the trust of his companions is not equal to the trust of His Majesty the Emperor, and there are still a bunch of traitors around His Majesty the Emperor who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic.

"You, Shigeki, you probably have too much heart!" After a while, Xuzi smiled and comforted in a low voice.

His smile was very bitter, as if he was chewing a handful of yellow lotus root in his mouth. This is the Great Sui Imperial Court that he defended regardless of life and death, and he was always more wary of his own people than foreign invaders. But he had no other choice, let it be destroyed by foreign enemies, and everyone would be martyred!

"I miss the days with you in Qi County!" Dugu Lin sighed, turned his head, and looked at the stars in the night sky. The night was so long that the stars in the sky were literally fixed in mid-air and did not move for a moment. In the light of the stars and torches, his face was so white, like frost condensed by autumn dew on the tip of the grass, and there was hardly any dust to be seen.

The same night dew hit Shibi Khan's face, causing his mind to gradually regain its senses. The valley full of death traps has been left far behind, and most of his soldiers and horses have escaped the danger. With a long sigh of relief, he began to examine the reasons for this defeat.

"It's Gu Turu, it must be the damn Gu Turu who informed the Sui people of the news of the withdrawal of the army!" The answer was almost obvious in front of him, and without any thought, Shibi Khan could think of who had betrayed him. After this catastrophe, his descendants lost one-third of their soldiers and horses. The deterrent effect on the Khans under his command has been greatly reduced. And the person who will benefit the most will be Gutoru, who not only preserves his strength intact, but also buys hearts and minds through his last-minute performance before the withdrawal.

Many seemingly confusing things are actually easy to discern the truth behind them, as long as you take a closer look at who the guy who benefited the most in the end, all the fog will disappear in an instant. Shibi Khan hated it so much that the roots of his teeth itched, and he regretted that he hadn't done it sooner and slaughtered Gu Tolu, an immature male wolf. But at the same time, he secretly admired Gu Tolu's decisiveness and cunning, this is the nature of the Ashina family.

Thinking of Qi Yu, another mystery suddenly surged in his heart. "Who told the Sui army about my retreat route? Bone Toru didn't know at all, and couldn't possibly know! ”

The answer is still out of the breath, it is Ashina Choyu! Only this old poisonous snake has the conditions to secretly reveal the movement route of the imperial camp soldiers and horses. The other generals and staff either did not have access to the core secrets, or their fate was closely related to his Shibi Khan, and they betrayed the retreat route to the Great Sui, and they did not get any benefits!

"Come on, invite Uncle Qiyu over! I have something to ask him for! "After finding the 'real' reason for the defeat in this battle, Shibi Khan smiled and issued an order that puzzled everyone, and then pointed with the tip of his knife at the river beach not far ahead." Let's go there first to rest and count the losses by the way! ”

"Big brother, it's still very close to the Great Wall!" Ashina Lifu hurried forward and shouted in opposition. Half of his beard had been burned by the fire, so that his face was as messy as a straw on one side and neat on the other, and he looked very funny.

"Haha, haha, Livier, look at your bear." Shibi Khan smiled dumbly, "Isn't it just that we lost a battle, and our brothers haven't lost since childhood." Look at the brothers behind you, they are smoky and burning, and how can they get away without washing. Besides, you have to groom yourself and shave both sides of your beard with a knife. I also said that half of your face looks a few years younger! ”

"Big brother!" Ashina Lifu was so anxious that he stomped his feet. "When has it been, you still have the heart to play tricks on me! We are less than twenty miles out of the valley, and once the enemy catches up from behind, the brethren ......."

"Secret Service Philip said very well, Great Khan, we can't stop and rest. The brethren held themselves up on one breath. This one sits down, and there is no hour that I can't stand up! But Yu just hurried to take over the words of Tong Lifu and admonished loudly.

"Isn't that what my uncle wants?" Shibi Khan snorted coldly in his nostrils, interrupting Ashina Choyu's words.

Ashina Qiyu, who was already as haggard as a seventy-year-old man, shrank suddenly, and raised his head quickly, "Great Khan, but Yu didn't do anything to be sorry for Great Khan, Changshengtian can testify, if I, the Ashina family's Qiyu once turned his back on Great Khan, let the heavenly thunder hit my head!" ”

"No need, no thunder in winter!" Shibi Khan sneered and shook his head, "When the next thunderstorm strikes, it is estimated that my heart has been dug out by you and dedicated to Gu Toru!" ”

With that, he waved his hand quickly, and the tip of the knife neatly cut a string of blood beads on Ashina Choyu's throat.
