The age of the Emperor is not small, he is almost sixty years old this year, he is considered to be a long life among the Turks, and after being a Khan for a few years, the health of the Emperor is also deteriorating.

"Lidore, come here." He said in a weak tone.

"Father." Lidore approached Oliva's side and spoke a little sadly.

"I can't do it, after I die, you take your mother and family to lead the tribe and join the Tang Dynasty." He said softly.

"Father...... Why? Lidore was stunned for a moment, and asked with some confusion.

"There is no reason, there is no need for the current Western Turks to exist, the population of our tribe has been decreasing, and many small tribes have directly surrendered to Ashina Shilu, but in fact, Ashina Shilu is just a pawn of the Tang Emperor."

"It's not a shame to be a chess piece, in fact, we are just a pawn of Datang, if it wasn't for Datang's support, we would have been wiped out by Yibi Lu long ago."

"We can have a few days, it's just that the Tang Dynasty needs us, but now that I'm dead, you can't control the entire Turkic, each big tribe has its own ideas, no matter what their ideas are, they won't listen to you, and the power in your hands doesn't have an absolute advantage."

"Although you were born in the grassland, although you are not afraid of war, you are not good at war."

"So, you go, surrender and join Datang, with your current merits and identity, Datang will give you a good status position, just like Xue Yantuo's True Pearl Khan."

"Although you don't get that much, life in Chang'an is far more comfortable than on the grassland, and you don't have to worry about more things."

"As a father, I didn't bring you a higher status, nor did I bring more people, but when you go to Chang'an, you may find a different life."

The tone of the voice was weak, and he had to stop and let himself catch his breath.

"Father, don't say that, the sons of the steppe are accustomed to winning more property on their own, your command...... I don't know if I should follow it or not. Lidore's face was blank.

He really didn't think about this option.

"Go, listen to me, the current Western Turks are already the head wolf in their twilight years, it seems that the remnants are still there, but the bones are already soft, and even the meat of the prey can break a mouthful of old teeth, and the Tang Dynasty is a tiger descending from the mountain, and there is no opponent in the grassland."

"Datang's domestic situation has stabilized now, and if Datang wants to continue to develop in the next step, it can only go west, and we are the weakest one."

"The current Turks have a vast territory but only an old body, and we are no longer able to protect such a vast steppe."

"If you stay and don't talk about the Tang Dynasty, now the various tribes have a dispute with you in the end, and the result is probably not easy to say." He said softly.

"Ashina Shilu could have annexed us a long time ago, but maybe it's because of the relationship between Datang and us, I once took refuge in Datang, so they didn't do anything to us, and there was even a lot of trade with us."

"But when I die, this kind of thing is not expected to happen, and as long as Ashina Shilu sends troops, many tribes will surrender immediately." He looked at him softly and spoke.

Lidor was silent for a moment, and then said softly: "I know, father, I will lead the Western Turks to submit to the Tang Dynasty." ”

"Well, if you can figure it out, before joining the Tang Dynasty, take advantage of my funeral to call the leaders of various tribes to come over and discuss together, I believe they will all agree. This will also do you the most good. He said.

"Yes...... Father. ”

After he finished explaining what he should have explained, he returned to the embrace of Immortal Heaven that night, and after he died, on the way to gather the leaders of the various tribes, Lidor thought for a long time, and finally decided to listen to the words of the elder.

Within three days, the chiefs of the main tribes of the Western Turks had arrived, and after they had held a funeral for the Zaris, Lidor called them to a meeting.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am ready to lead the Western Turks to join the Tang Dynasty and become a part of the Tang Dynasty." Lidore did not hesitate, but spoke directly above the meeting.

Lidor's words made the dozen or so tribal leaders who rushed to be stunned for a moment, but after they were stunned, they fell silent again, and soon, one of the leaders arched his hand to Lidor: "The Khan has died, and as the eldest son of the Khan, you are our new Khan." ”

"Since you have made your decision, Khan, we all agree."

"Yes, we all agree with your decision, Khan."

When these leaders all responded to Lidor, he suddenly understood why his father would explain him like this, because these people probably already had the intention of returning to the Tang Dynasty.

The people of the grassland all admire the strong, and today's Datang is the most powerful person in the entire grassland, from the land of the extreme ice field in the north to the land of Yongxia in the south, and a powerful country spanning tens of thousands of miles from north to south and east to west.

Of course, they all want to take refuge in such a country, especially those who have taken refuge have obtained unprecedented benefits, and they naturally want to.

"Since everyone thinks so, then take advantage of this winter migration, let's move towards the Ashina Shilu Department, and move towards the direction of the Datang Tianshan and the Yili River Valley, where there are places for us to spend the winter, and we can also contact the Datang." Lidore didn't think much of it either.

The steppe people don't have much concept of home and country, and for them, it is the most tangible thing to survive, so since the decision has been made, Lidor is not ready to hesitate.

Migration was a long thing, but as the successor khan of the Turks, Lidor first sent envoys to Ashinabu, and then prepared to send it to the Tang Dynasty at the same time.

In November of the 26th year of the Tang Dynasty, Chang'an had begun to become cold, although it had not yet reached below zero, but it had already reached the time to wear thick clothes, and Li Ke, who had just made arrangements for Tianzhu and others, received information from the Chinese theater.

The Western Turkic Ashina Shilu and the Western Turkic Lili Division, or the Lidor Ministry, decided to submit all members to the Tang Dynasty and become part of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Ke, who received this news, was stunned for a moment, he was not ready to make a move against the Western Turks, is the Western Turks about to surrender themselves? Although it was a subject state before, the subject country and the complete surrender are two different concepts.

From the information sent to Li Ke, he also knew that the Western Turkic Khan Lisu had died, and now it was his son Lidor.
