Obviously, Feng Da's poaching operation completely failed in front of Xiong Kaishan.
But to be precise, this is not considered poaching. After all, Xiong Kaishan was originally his. If he had to poach, it was Xiao Han who poached him first, and he did so thoroughly. Looking at Xiong Kaishan, this is The roots were also dug out.
The next day, early morning.
When the sun had just risen, Chai Shao's army was already ready for battle!
Thousands of troops were divided into three teams and marched out from the north gate of Shuofang one after another. The teams were separated by five miles. The horses in the team stretched for dozens of miles. On the snow-covered prairie, they looked like a black dragon disappearing into the distance. It was extremely spectacular. !
Standing on the Shuofang city wall, Xiao Han, Tang Jian, Feng Da and others quietly watched the team go away, and at the same time said goodbye to Chai Shao, who was covered in clothes.
Everyone knows that from this moment on, the war between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks will officially begin! What Xiao Han did before was just a small fight. The ones led by Chai Shao and the others are the real army of subjugation!
"Master Hou, why don't we go together?"
Beside Xiao Han, the fool was drooling and looked at Chai Shao's army with envy for a long time, and finally couldn't help but ask.
However, Xiao Han, who was next to him, clearly heard these words, but he just glared at him with a dark face and said nothing.
"What's wrong? Did I say the wrong thing again?"
The dumbfounded man was so stunned by Xiao Han that he couldn't make up his mind. He had a constipated look on his face as he wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask.
At the end of the day, Jia Si still couldn't stand it, so he quietly pulled him aside and scolded him in a low voice: "Hey! Are you stupid? Why is our Xiaohou here? It's fate to give him food and grass! What if? If you go on an expedition with General Manager Chai Da, doesn't that constitute a violation of military orders? When the time comes, the Army Sima will behead you, go up and bear it!"
"I don't care. I only have one head. If you cut it off, it won't grow back..."
The fool was so frightened by Jia Yi that he shrank his neck and muttered in a low voice, but he quickly came to his senses and looked at Jia Yi suspiciously and asked: "Huh? That's not right! According to what you said, the Marquis is transporting grain and grass. , then why did we go to the grasslands to fight Turks a few days ago?"
"Ahem! Okay, I'm sure, you are really stupid!"
Jia Si saw that he was kindly reminding him, but this fool still questioned him, and he was immediately furious! If he had known earlier, he would have stopped meddling and let this guy die!
"We went to fight the Turks because Xiao Hou wanted to rescue the people who were kidnapped by the foreign tribes! So we didn't send troops privately, but Xiao Hou took his family generals to rescue the compatriots! Otherwise, why do you think he had to do it last time? Three hundred people gathered?
Not only the number of personal soldiers specially approved by Mr. Xiao now, but also three hundred people! If you take your own soldiers out to rescue the people, who can tell you what's wrong? "
"Huh? Is that so?"
When the fool heard this, he finally realized. With his head that only has muscles and no brain, how could he imagine that there are so many twists and turns in this?
Jia Yi rolled his eyes at the stunned man and snorted coldly: "Hmph... How can you think of what our Lord Marquis thinks about? And to put it bluntly, what is the identity of our Lord Marquis? What if he is on the grassland? Something happened, do you think Chai Shao can take on this responsibility? So even if our Marquis wants to follow the Chief Chai, there is no way he will be allowed to do so!"
Most things in the world are like this. Some things look simple, but are horrifyingly complicated on the inside! And some things look extremely complicated, but at their core they are so simple that there is only the word 'profit'.
Chai Shao in front of him went on an expedition, starting from Shuofang City.
Xiao Han knew that others such as Li Ji, Li Daozong, Xue Wanche and others should also shoot out from all over the Tang Dynasty like sharp arrows, piercing straight into the heart of the Turks!
Of course, he knew better: among all the teams attacking the Turks, Li Jing, far to the east of Yinshan Mountain, will always be the sharpest and most deadly!
On the third day after Chai Shao left, Xiao Han, who was staying in Shuofang, finally waited for a convoy from Chang'an. In the afternoon of the same day, the long-lost Xiao banner once again waved in the city, and the rally horn sounded again!
——————
Guanzhong, Chang'an.
The news of Xiao Han's massacre on the grassland was finally leaked out. As soon as this news came out, it immediately caused an uproar in Chang'an.
Fortunately, everyone in the court was a group of people. Except for Kong Yingda and a few other people who complained about Xiao Han's massacre, everyone else, including Wei Zheng, turned a blind eye and pretended to be nothing. Tsukuru didn't see it!
However, compared to the tranquility in the court, among the people, this matter is like having wings, spreading quickly throughout every city in Chang'an! It seems that there is a pair of invisible hands behind the scenes, pushing and guiding things to happen and develop.
People are all forgetful!
After many years of peace, the people of Chang'an had long forgotten the brutality of the Turks and the suffering they had inflicted on the Tang nation!
Therefore, when some of them heard those "war stories" that had been deliberately modified, their sympathy for the weak quickly overwhelmed their original grudges!
In addition, the person who did this was Xiao Han, which made some foolish men and women believe those rumors even more!
After all, Xiao Han's reputation in Chang'an has never been good.
"Your Majesty actually let a kid with a yellow mouth lead the troops. Could it be that our Tang Dynasty has no one available? If there is no one, I can also go into battle!"
"Xiao Hou is known as a god, but you don't see that he is still in his weak years and has an unstable temperament! This time when he went to Shuofang, the arrogant soldiers redeemed their weapons, the army was undisciplined, and the Turkic treasures were divided among the random soldiers! How is this different from banditry? !”
"In the past, Bai Qi, the God of Killing, killed and surrendered his troops, and he could not protect himself! The overlord of Western Chu massacred the city, and in the end he committed suicide in Wujiang River! It can be seen that swordsmen are also murderers! Only education can make the barbarians return to their hearts! This time Xiao Hou By setting up armies and plundering, without caring about etiquette and morality, our country, the Tang Dynasty, will surely suffer disaster!"
In front of the Suzaku Gate, a group of old Confucians angrily blocked the entrance to the imperial city, spitting stars and flying stars, almost drowning the general guarding the gate!
The poor general who was guarding the gate came here after another shift. He had just had a free morning when he suddenly encountered this situation! These old men with gray eyebrows cannot be beaten or scolded, their faces are almost wrinkled into bitter gourds!
"Hey! You old men, you don't go to bed at noon, why are you here making noise? Do you know that disturbing people's dreams is like seeking money and killing people!"
Finally, just when the guarding general couldn't bear it anymore and was about to collapse, a loud shout came from behind!
Cheng Yaojin, the newly transferred general who was transferred to defend the palace city, finally arrived here in a jiffy!
