After hearing this, the captain was silent.
It stands to reason that the original plan of the Guanlong Clan was to use the help of the Turks to eliminate the Youtun Guards, assassinate Fang Jun, and eliminate the first-class enemy in the court. Then they felt that it was not safe, so they secretly worked to attract A group of Arab cavalry is becoming more and more safe, ensuring nothing goes wrong.
Because they couldn't bear the backlash that Fang Jun might suffer after he fled back to Chang'an once their success failed.
In the eyes of the Guanlong clan, whether they are Turks or Arabs, it is best to die cleanly in order to cut off all clues and eliminate future troubles forever.
But while the Turks were attacking Youtunwei, they launched the Arabs to raid from behind and carry out indiscriminate attacks... With the war in chaos, the situation would inevitably become a mess and difficult to control. Don't you worry about any accidents?
If Youtunwei is not annihilated according to the original plan, and Fang Jun is allowed to escape, the serious consequences will definitely be something that no one in the Longmen family is willing to face.
Others may need evidence, but Fang Jun's stick has always acted arbitrarily. As long as he believes that it is the fault of the Guanlong clan, he will definitely take extremely drastic measures to retaliate.
Your Majesty and the Prince may turn a blind eye for the sake of the stability of the government, but how can Fang Jun swallow such a breath?
Therefore, this matter can only succeed and cannot fail. Every link must be carefully considered and handled with caution.
Wei Ying observed the words and saw the captain's expression was uncertain, so he quickly said: "When we were leaving, the Youtun Guards had already sent troops to station in Jiaohe City to block the four gates. Therefore, the general specifically told us to inform us when we came to summon us. Everyone, it’s better not to delay things, otherwise things will change!”
The captain's expression changed drastically: "Fang Jun has sent people to blockade Jiaohe City?"
Wei Ying pointed to the sky and swore: "It's absolutely true. How dare we lie about such a big matter?"
The captain naturally understood that no one would dare to lie about this kind of thing, so he quickly turned around and chirped to the two generals sitting on the seats.
Then, he saw the two Hu generals nodding their heads, and the captain said to Wei Ying: "The two generals have agreed to assemble their troops and head to Alagou immediately. You two should also accompany them."
Wei Ying shook his head and said: "Before leaving, the general told us that we need to return to Jiaohe City immediately after the summons. Otherwise, the general is trapped in the city and does not know the situation outside. It is easy to make inaccurate judgments, and it is even more difficult to make adjustments. Once a mistake occurs, ,The consequences could be disastrous."
The captain raised his eyebrows, stared at Wei Ying's face like a hawk, and said displeasedly: "I am in charge of this place, and I have the final say in what happens. Although you are holding General Hou Mochen's letter, you also have Hou Mochen. You have the title of General, but your identity is somewhat suspicious. I can’t let you go until I see General Hou Mochen.”
Under the scorching gaze, Wei Ying's expression did not show any fluctuation, and he said calmly: "I am the personal soldier of General Hou Mochen. I am not an official or soldier. I will not be able to obey the orders of the captain. If the captain has any doubts about my identity, If you have any doubts, you don't have to act according to the instructions in the letter. All consequences will be borne by the captain and have nothing to do with me. I have military orders with me, so it is inconvenient to stay longer, so I will leave for now."
After saying that, he knelt down on one knee to perform the military salute, and then turned around and walked out without looking at the captain's face, which was as black as the bottom of a pot.
The companion naturally followed quickly.
After leaving the house, Wei Ying kept walking and strode towards the city gate without looking back. He pursed his lips and said to his companions: "Calm down, don't panic, he doesn't dare to do anything to us."
Throughout the Western Region, although the Guanlong Clan had influence all over the place, Chang Sun Ming and Hou Mo Chen Sui were the main ones. These two people were in the Anxi Protectorate. They held high positions and had great power. Naturally, they were able to restrain the power of the Guanlong clan in all directions.
So how could a mere school captain dare to embarrass the soldiers around Hou Mo and Chen Sui?
Even if he still had doubts in his heart, as long as Wei Ying didn't reveal his true nature, he could only watch Wei Ying walk away...
As expected, the two men opened the city gate and left the city, but no one dared to stop them.
The two of them left the city and walked all the way towards Jiaohe City. It was not until dusk that the sky became dark, and the heavy snow still continued to fall. Things were blurry and difficult to distinguish more than ten feet away. Then they found a leeward place to eat some dry food and drink. After taking a few sips of strong wine and taking a short rest, he changed direction and turned south, heading towards the direction of the Youtun Guard station.
*****
A few dozen miles north of Baishui Town, there is a valley that crosses Bogda Mountain. Because it is narrow and winding, it is difficult to pass, so few people usually travel to the Western Regions and Mobei.
In a mountain col with leeward direction, three thousand Turks camped here.
In the camp, Ashina Helu was wearing a fox fur. He cut off a piece of barbecue with the sharp knife in his hand and stuffed it into his mouth to chew for a while. Then he picked up the wine glass with his greasy hands and took a big sip. Then he looked at the person opposite. Tumidu said: "This time we came south under the orders of King Khan, and we really suffered a big sin. When we were passing through the valley, more than a hundred men accidentally fell into the deep stream. The horses prepared for us by the Tang Dynasty were not high-quality horses. , I am afraid that we will face a fierce battle against Youtunwei. The Great Khan is a veteran general on the battlefield, and he is extremely brave. When the time comes, he will have to shoulder the heavy responsibility of attacking for his general. Youtunwei is not just anyone. Just a little cat or puppy, if you underestimate the enemy, the consequences are unpredictable.”
The reputation of Youtunwei has long been known in Mobei.
Back then, the soldiers came out of the White Road, marched all the way towards Longting, and were invincible in the wilderness for thousands of miles. They finally overthrew Xue Yantuo, achieving Fang Jun's eternal merits of "conquering Shi Yanran" and "sealing the wolf to live in Xu". It shocked the Hu tribe in Mobei and trembled, and they were all subdued. Under its overwhelming power.
Now in the battle of Hexi, tens of thousands of Tuyuhun cavalry had prepared for many years and broke into the Hexi invaders. However, in the great battle of pulling out the valley, they defeated the right guard and abandoned their helmets and armor, leaving corpses lying on their pillows!
These two battles were enough to make the army of Youtun Guard look down upon the world and deserve the honor of being the most powerful army in the world.
Although the Turks did not hesitate to suffer heavy losses, they crossed the Bogda Mountains and sneaked into the Gaochang and Shanshan areas in the wind and snow, just to give the Youtun Guards a thunderous blow. However, in the face of such unparalleled military power, the always arrogant and arrogant Ah Shi Nahelu didn't dare to be careless.
The sneak attack on Youtunwei was partly to gain an undeniable and generous price to close the Longmen clan, and partly to make the Turkic cavalry famous. Since the Eastern Turks were destroyed by the Tang army in the Battle of Dingxiang, and Jieli Khan was captured and brought to Chang'an to perform a dance in front of His Majesty Li Er, the Turks have been silent for many years. I hope that this battle can make the world remember the Turkic Wolf Cavalry again. The majesty and majesty are more conducive to controlling the various tribes in the Western Region.
However, Ashinahelu was absolutely unwilling to encounter the tenacious blockade of Youtun Guards because of underestimating the enemy, thereby losing his troops and losing half of his reputation here.
Moreover, because the valley path through the Bogda Mountains was extremely narrow and could only be walked on foot, thousands of Turkic warriors could only carry weapons and food. Only after arriving here did the Longmen clan prepare horses. However, the Tang army had extremely strict management of horses. Every high-quality war horse was not only marked, but also included in the roster. Deaths in battle, death from illness, and disappearances had to be reported. No matter how powerful the Guanlong clan was, they would not be able to do it. Thousands of high-quality war horses were obtained without anyone else noticing.
Therefore, we can only use the bad horses in the racecourse, or even the horses pulling the carts to make up the number...
Although Ashinahelu knew the difficulties of shutting down the Long Clan, he was still dissatisfied. The Turks are all born warriors. They have grown up on horseback since childhood. They are skilled in bow and horse and are brave and powerful. But in the final analysis, they must have good horses to maximize their combat power.
It is difficult for these bad horses to drive them to charge. If they are used against the right guard, wouldn't they lose a few points of victory out of thin air?
Naturally, I was under a lot of pressure, and I felt a little depressed and irritable, and I couldn't help but complain to Tumidu.
Tumidu took a sip of wine and said slowly: "General, you are overly worried. The enemy is in the open and we are in the dark. Also, the people of the Long Gate Clan can inform you of the movements of the Youtun Guards at any time. It is like prey under the control of a goshawk." If it falls, all it takes is a full blow, and it will be captured naturally. I am more concerned about when the heavy snow will stop. If it falls like this, I am afraid it will be another white disaster. How many livestock on the grassland will freeze to death, and the tribesmen will not be able to catch it. Without livestock, there is no way to survive. If people all starve to death, why are we working so hard to survive?"
The words are very compassionate.
He thought about the shocking news brought by the soldiers of the Tang army who came to contact him earlier, and felt that he could not let Ashina Helu keep thinking about Youtunwei, just in case an idea flashed at some moment and he realized the danger of the Turks' current situation. Therefore, if you are on guard, isn't it a serious matter?
So I quickly tried to change the topic...
