Chapter 248: Battle Order
The soldiers and horses of the Khan Court were really elite, and under the sneak attack and ambush of others, they actually dragged the half-dead Ashina Musi into Xue Yantuo City.
When these bloodied and scarred soldiers fled into Xue Yantuo City, they first aroused ridicule from the warriors of various tribes. Non-descendants like them have always been despised and despised by the Khan's court's descendants, and now that the warriors of the Khan's court have ended up like this, they naturally gloated.
At this time, they thought that the people of the Khan's court had encountered horse bandits, and they could only think so, otherwise, what enemies could they have here? As a result, when Xiao Mumu, who was red-eyed, led the Asid soldiers to rush into Xue Yantuo, they realized that something was wrong.
Some of the tribes that were inclined to the Ashina and Ashid tribes, or tribes that belonged to these two factions respectively, immediately became nervous, and the stragglers who were roaming around returned to their stations to tell their leaders about the incident, and the close tribes, after some urgent consultations, immediately set up camp.
The various tribes that were originally mixed together were now distinct, and the many camps of the Ashid and its vassal tribes occupied one corner of the city of Xueyantuo, and the camps of the Ashina and its vassal tribes occupied the other corner, but fortunately, there were a large number of very mixed neutral tribes gathered in the third place outside the city of Xueyantuo, which was at an equal distance from the two sides to show neutrality.
The camp that Zhang Yi had just set up also followed these chaotic camps and re-selected the station, this time, he was surrounded by neutral tribes of all sizes, which was even less noticeable.
The scuffle spread to the city of Xueyantuo, and the great commander of the Xueyantuo tribe, Jin Bayegu, and the great Yehu Moon of the Muaha tribe, who had already arrived, stopped the turmoil and ordered the soldiers and horses of the Ashid tribe to withdraw from the city and station, and the matter came to an end.
Later, the Great Leaf Protector Zhu Tu of the Ashid tribe rushed to Xue Yantuo City in a fierce manner, and when Moon questioned why his tribe attacked Ashina Musi, Zhu Tu instead pursued Ashina Musi Qiao pretending to be a horse bandit and robbing their tribe. Jutu also brought witnesses from many victimized tribes, not only from the Ashrid tribe, but also from some other tribes.
This time. Zhu Tu finally found out that something was wrong, and the quarrel between the three parties naturally had no result, because Ashina Musi was still injured, and he couldn't do anything to defend himself, so in order to avoid the expansion of the situation, Zhu Tu had to join forces with Bayegu to suppress the matter first.
In the days that followed, a number of tribes rushed to complain about Ashnamusi's atrocities. Although they were infested by horse bandits, there were also tribes of the Ashina tribe. However, because these tribes were close to the Xue Yantuo tribe and were less harmed, Zhu Tu was willing to believe their words. I only think that this is the cunning of Ashina Musi, and in order to deliberately hide his identity, he made a show of his own tribe.
Seeing that the ministries were arguing. Moon Daye's protector Pegasus galloped silently, hoping that he could come and solve the matter in person. However, some tribes who originally remained neutral, but received reports from the clansmen, saying that the tribes that had been plundered by Ashina Musi had joined the camp of the Ashid tribe, and the two sides were tense, and the situation was on the verge of breaking out.
Seeing this situation, Yang Fan felt that if this situation continued to develop and caused a big melee between the two sides, it would inevitably make their southern expedition come to naught. He patiently stayed in the neutral camp.
Yang Fan didn't think of taking a risk and launching an attack on a certain camp, so as to provoke a big war between the two sides, but at the moment, the tribes were better during the day, and at night they were all like facing a great enemy, and there were endless plains as far as the eye could see, especially the snow fields. No matter how dark the night is, there is a kind of white light, which makes people have nothing to hide.
As long as they moved, they would immediately attract the attention of the other surrounding tribes, and the two camps of Ashina and Ashde, who were on strict guard, had already placed their patrols thirty miles away, and it was impossible for them to succeed in a sneak attack. If one can't get it right, not only will his lone army be wiped out. The provoking jihua will also be recognized, so it is better not to be stupid, no matter whether this matter can be resolved peacefully, it can sow the seeds of suspicion between the two tribes.
The days passed, the southern expedition Jihua delayed indefinitely, although the cattle and sheep brought by the tribes were still enough to eat, but these cattle and sheep were originally estimated to consume on the road to the southern expedition, and then it must be not enough to consume it like this, and the tribes had more worries in addition to the original quarrel, and many tribes retreated.
Just then, Mo Si sent someone.
Mo Si insisted on sending troops to invade the south during his brother Khan's critical illness, and he had his own considerations. In addition to building another great military achievement, it also has the purpose of reducing internal resistance through external military affairs and making the process of his succession more peaceful. You must know that this time he sent troops, and there were not many main forces under his control, and the main forces were all men and horses from other tribes. These people are out of the army, and even if their leader wants to support the son of Gu Lulu, he must hesitate again and again, and when he sacrifices to the gods and officially inherits the throne, the dust will settle.
Therefore, he didn't want the southern expedition Jihua to die young, and it was impossible for him to leave the Khan's court at this critical moment, so he sent an old minister who was highly respected in the Turkic Khanate. Estimating that the delay in this period would cause the various tribes to lack food, he also generously sent tens of thousands of cattle and sheep to the various departments free of charge to supplement the needs of the three armies.
"She" is a kind of official position, second only to the Khan and Ye Hu, Ah Xian She, who is almost eighty years old, is a fair person, has a peaceful temperament, rarely participates in the various tribes, and has a relatively friendly relationship with the tribes, and has always enjoyed a high reputation among the entire Turkic tribes.
The most important thing is that not long ago, he had just celebrated his seventy-eighth birthday, when Mo Si sent two sons and nephews to congratulate him on his birthday, one of whom was Ashina Musi. Although the time when Ashina Musi went to celebrate her birthday was not the time when the southern Xinjiang tribes were infringed by "horse bandits", from a geographical point of view, after that, even if Ashina Musi traveled day and night, it was too late to rush to southern Xinjiang and pretend to be horse bandits to loot goods.
Old Ah Xian rushed to Xue Yantuo from the far north, gathered the leaders of various tribes, and swore in the name of the gods, and pledged the honor of his old Ah Xian for the rest of his life, and confirmed to them in person that Ashina Musi had gone to congratulate him on his birthday, and told them when Ashina Musi left his tribe.
You must know that the first person to say that he recognized his identity was Xiao Mumu, from Lao Axian's tribe to Xiao Mumu's tribe, even if he traveled day and night, changing horses and not changing people, he couldn't rush to southern Xinjiang so quickly, and the fastest means of transportation in this era is horses.
The leaders of the Ashid clan with a bitter face and a deep hatred could not deny what they saw with their eyes, but the prestige of old Ah Xian was too high, especially at the age of eighty, he who had always been indisputable with the world, and it was impossible for him to get involved in helping others to commit perjury.
After that, the messenger of Mo Si issued a strict order, still with Zhu Tu, Moon and Ashina Musi as the main commanders, the three of them must formulate the southern expedition as soon as possible, send troops within a limited time, if there is any objection to Ashina Musi pretending to be a horse bandit, they will wait for the southern expedition to be resolved.
It's not that Mo Si doesn't want to replace his unlucky son, it's just that he must be tough at this time, and he can only be tough, if he replaces Ashina Musi, the leaders of the Ashid clan who don't really believe in the guarantee of the old Ah Xian will inevitably see him as a thief, and then there will be endless troubles.
When Yang Fan got the news, he couldn't help but be disappointed.
On the day Ye An was kidnapped by him, there was a turmoil in Xue Yantuo City because of the melee between the two clans, which covered for him, and Ye An, who disappeared for no reason, and Wan Qi, the proprietress of the wine shop, had no one to pay attention to and look for him, he was mixed in the enemy camp, very leisurely, and there was no danger at all.
But the purpose of his visit was to provoke disputes among the Turkic tribes, find out their information, and report to his border fortresses in advance. Now, although Ye An, a witness who can prove that Qiu Shenji has ghosts, has been unexpectedly caught, these two major events have not been completed.
The matter of instigating the dispute between the two tribes only delayed their action, and bought time for the border army to dispatch troops and strengthen the city defense, but this time was not enough to ensure the safety and security of the border fortress pass, if this old Ah Xian was a month late, it would be good to wait until the spring flowers bloomed, which was the most important period of the year for the nomads to produce and live, and at that time Mo Si wanted to send troops again, which would inevitably cause the opposition of the tribes.
Yang Fan digested all the information he had collected and thought hard about countermeasures.
At present, because of the dispute between the two tribes of Ashid and Ashina, it has been delayed for a period of time, and Mo Si even issued a "war order" for this, once the three commanders decide on the goal of action, I am afraid that they will act immediately and try to drive out the delayed period, in that case, even if they send the news back before the Turkic army, they will only deliver the news three to five days in advance, which can only make the defenders of the border fortress pass more vigilant, and the rear reinforcements are still too late to arrive.
However, could there be a better way?
It seems impossible to stop the movement of such a large army, could it be that this time he took countless risks to sneak into the desert and returned in vain?
Unwilling!
I'm really unwilling!
Yang Fan let out a long sigh, and glanced over to see Xiong Kaishan sitting at the mouth of the tent, chatting with Gao She Jimei with a smile, this thing has the nourishment of a woman, and the whole person's personality is much more cheerful.
Seeing him smiling so happily, Yang Fan was angry, glared at him and said, "Let's chat, disturb me thinking about things!" ”
Yang Fan's original position was not much higher than him, but Yang Fan was from Luojing, and his identity was a little more noble than him, but in Mobei for more than a month, Yang Fan had actually been serving as the commander of these two thousand people, and his majesty had accumulated unconsciously.
Xiong Kaishan didn't dare to refute, so he said "hehe" twice in a good-natured manner, raised his butt and walked away.
Yang Fan was angry and funny, shook his head and said, "This bear-like look, I really can't stand him!" ”
Zhang Yi said with a smile: "Listening to Ye An, this girl seems to be a little casual, but seeing that Xiong Kaishan is with her, the two of them are so good that they are like honey and oil, and that girl seems to have become a good wife and mother, hey!" Fate is a strange thing, others can't get used to it, it's useless! He thinks it's good, that's really good! ”
"He thinks it's ...... himself"
Yang Fan repeated with a smile, and as soon as he was halfway through his words, he suddenly stopped, and he seemed to think of something......
