Chapter 1027: Shatuo Turk

Although Yizhou has been won now, the Shatuo Turks are still entrenched around the Pu Sea. Yang Zhenggu pointed to the northwest of Yizhou City on the map and said, Pu Hai is today's Balikun Lake, Shatuo is another part of the Western Turks, and has been living in the east of Pu Zhuhai, although Pu Shihai and Yizhou City are separated by a folding mountain, but it can not completely isolate the threat of Shatuo Turks, if the army continues to attack east, it must first solve the Shatuo Turks.

Otherwise, after the battle line of the army was extended, the Shatuo Turks would fight out from the flanks and cut off their food routes, and the army would be defeated without a fight.

"Yuan Zheng used to be in Qiuzi, and he didn't know much about the things in the North Garden, so the old man would explain a thing or two to Yuan Zheng!" Saying that, Yang Zhengu told Shen Long about the situation of the Shatuo Turks, and he also called himself an old man between his words, which has the meaning of cultivating an heir.

"During the Yonghui period, I conquered the Western Turkic Ashina Helu Department, and placed Jinman in the place where the Shatuo Turks lived, and Shatuo was bound to the state of Shatuo, and when Emperor Wu reigned, the chief of the moon in Changshatuo, Jinshan, was awarded the governor of Jinmanchu because of his meritorious service from the expedition to Tiele; Since then, the Shatuo Turks have been living here and have followed me to fight in the Tang Dynasty many times. ”

"After the rebellion of Anshi, the North Court was isolated from the Tang Dynasty, and the Shatuo Turks came to Chang'an by way of the Hui Hui to Chang'an, and they had no choice but to return to Tubo with 7,000 loyal commanders, and were named the commander of the army. The Great Treatise is the official name of Tubo, and the Tubo is called "Minister" as "Treatise", and the Great Treatise is called "Treatise", also known as "Treatise".

Shen Long had seen these situations in the history books, but when he heard Yang Zhengu say it himself, it was not a good feeling, and Zhu Xie was forced to surrender to Tubo with all his loyalty.

Maybe everyone doesn't think so, but in the Tang Dynasty, Tubo was an out-and-out big country, from the peak of the territory from the west from the green mountains and the big food border, east to the present-day Longyou, Jiannan, north from the south of the Tianshan Mountains, Juyanhai, south to the southern foot of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the Himalayas in the north of the Indian subcontinent bordering Tianzhu, it can be described as a vast territory, even if the strength of its national strength is looking at the world, it can also be ranked in the top five at that time, and it is not shameful to surrender such an enemy.

Ten years later, the Uighurs captured Liangzhou, and the Tubo tried to move it to the plateau area west of the Yellow River again on the grounds that the Shatuo station was close to Liangzhou, and Shatuo was unwilling to move westward, Zhu Xie was loyal to lead all the troops to defect to the Tang Dynasty, and the Tubo pursued and killed all the way, and the Shatuo people fought and left, only 2,000 of the 30,000 people arrived in Lingzhou, and Zhu Xie was loyal and died on the battlefield.

This is the exit of the tribes in the Western Regions, the Shatuo Turks can draw out seven thousand tents, and they are not considered a small force in the Western Regions, but they are still forced to be so uncomfortable, not to mention those miscellaneous beards who are struggling to survive on the desert Gobi? Shen Long can now understand Kang Guangde more and more, why they are so excited when they hear that they can become the people of the Tang Dynasty.

"When Beiting fell, he was also the pioneer of Zhu Xie's loyalty, but afterwards he did not get any benefits, and all the benefits were taken by the Tubo people." Speaking of one of the culprits of the fall of Beiting, Yang Zhengu's face showed anger.

"Protect and rest assured, at the end of this battle, we will definitely take the head of the Zhu evil loyalty to pay tribute to the comrades who died in Beiting City!" Shen Longcai doesn't care how much Zhu Xie is loyal, as long as he dares to attack Datang, he is the enemy of Datang, and the next battle will definitely destroy Shatuo, Zhu Xie is definitely dead!

In the future, some of the remnants of Shatuo were placed in Shanxi by the Tang Dynasty, the famous general Li Keyong of the Tang Dynasty, Li Cunqiao of the Later Tang Dynasty, Shi Jingjiao of the Later Jin Dynasty, Liu Zhiyuan of the Later Han Dynasty, and even Li Jiqian and Li Yuanhao, the leaders of the Party in the Song Dynasty, are all descendants of the Shatuo people.

"Yizhou is now in our hands, and it has cut off the connection between Tubo and the Shatuo Turks, and after hearing that Yizhou has fallen, Zhu Xie will personally lead the troops to rescue him, and Yuan Zheng only needs to wait for work!" Yang Zhengu still handed over the task of commanding this battle to Shen Long, who had previously attacked Tingzhou and Yizhou, and had seen his ability to siege cities, and now he just used this opportunity to see if he was so powerful in field warfare.

"The last general understands!" Shen Long comprehended Yang Zhengu's meaning, and couldn't help but be a little moved, if it weren't for his support, it would probably take a while for him to lead such a large army, right?

In addition to being moved, Shen Long began to sympathize with the Shatuo people again, they couldn't get any benefits from the Tubo people, and they had to come everywhere to sell their lives to Tubo, they couldn't fall on all the benefits of Yizhou City, and they had to come to help if the enemy came to attack, this day was too hard, right?

Thinking about it from another angle, even if it was so hard, Zhu Xie was still unwilling to break away from Tibet and return to the Uighurs. It is no wonder that decades later, the Uighurs were defeated by the Igas in their territory because of their oppression, and indeed their brutal rule did not last long.

It's a pity, if it weren't for the unforgivable responsibility of Zhu Xie Duzhong who contributed to Tingzhou, maybe as long as the Tang Dynasty showed favor a little, Zhu Xie Duzhong would have led the Shatuo Turks to return to obedience, and fought for the Tang Dynasty like their ancestors.

However, the fall of Tubo's separation of Longyou Hexi and Beiting Duhufu has greatly weakened the influence of the Tang Dynasty in the Western Regions, so Zhu Xie must be the chicken that scares the monkeys, and let the Western Regions see that the Tang Dynasty still cannot be humiliated.

There is only one way to go from Pu Shihai to Yizhou, Shen Long and they don't have to bother, just lead the army to wait at the intersection directly, sure enough, within a few days, Tanma sent the news, Zhu Xie did his best to Qishatuo's army and went straight to Yizhou City.

After receiving the news, Jie Yugas and Yang Zhenggu immediately convened their subordinates to discuss the army, as soon as they heard that there was another war, Kang Guangde and other miscellaneous leaders had their eyes lit up, they had only fought a battle a few days ago, and now they were fighting again, wouldn't it be that after cleaning up Zhu Xie and being loyal, he could get the qualification to be a candidate for the Han Navy after another battle?

So Kang Guangde and others celebrated, "Defend and capture, let the villain fight the vanguard in this battle, right?" The villain will definitely capture the head of the Zhu evil loyalty for the sake of guarding! ”

"Guard, I didn't catch up with the last battle, let the villain go in this battle!" These days, another group of miscellaneous hus came to Datang's banner, crying and shouting that they would bring their own dry food to fight for Datang.

"Haha, you want to work for Datang, and you can see it! You can rest assured, you have a part in this battle! Shen Long laughed, this was much more comfortable than the person who commanded himself to fight.
