The entire tribe to which Jieli belonged moved westward, causing shock in the border counties of the Sui Dynasty. Dingxiang, Yulin, Wuyuan, Lingwu, and Wuwei, who were on the way of the Turks' westward movement, responded quickly. They sent large armies to guard the fortresses. At the same time, urgent military information was also sent to "centers" such as Taiyuan, Luoyang, Daxing, and Zhangye.
But Shibi Khan, who was far away in the Khan's court in the south of Turks, was restless and unable to eat. In the past few days, Ashina Simo had fought several bloody battles with Chu Luo, and both sides had their own victories and defeats; he originally thought that Chu Luo's successors were weak and could not last long. This is also true. However, Chu Luo's army was very lucky. They first "picked up" a large amount of weapons and equipment and a large amount of dry food on the green grassland. And once when Ashina Simo was about to be defeated, suddenly a murderous and unstoppable horse thieves with a force of 20,000 people joined the battlefield and defeated Ashina Simo.
How could there be 20,000 horse thieves on the grassland? How can there be such horse thieves who are more powerful and regular than the elite army? If there is, it is also a powerful force.
Later, after asking around, Shibi Khan found out that the so-called horse thieves were actually the Liangzhou Army. The commander-in-chief is Liangzhou soldier Cao Weiyunqi, the deputy commanders are Dugu Pingyun, Achi, and Yuchigong, and the generals include Hanliu, Pochaoqi, Xue Wanjun, Xue Wanche, Yang Tie, Zhang Yan, Dugu Wuda, Yang Zhiyun, and Yuwen Xie, Yuwen Hao.
This group includes both veterans and newcomers, but everyone is terrifyingly fierce. What made Shibi Khan even more angry and almost vomited blood was that everything about them was the same as the Sui army. Except that they did not display the banner of the Sui Dynasty, they blatantly displayed their own commander's flag and "general flag".
What kind of horse thief is this? No! These are horse thieves; the whole Sui Dynasty and the whole Liangzhou are all fucking horse thieves. These horse thieves may seem polite, but in fact they are more warlike and cruel than the aliens they denounce. Once the bravery and bloodiness in their blood are awakened, all of them will become gods of murder.
However, Shibi Khan clearly knew that the other party was an elite teacher in Liangzhou and did not make any attempt to hide it. However, he was afraid of provoking the devil-like Yang Ji, so he did not dare to accuse or identify him; he could only grit his teeth and acquiesce to this. The best of the best are horse thieves.
But compared with this army, he was more worried about the Sui Dynasty. If these horse thieves waved the flag of the Sui Dynasty, it would mean that the Sui Dynasty had officially declared war. With his appearance, it would be impossible to defeat the Sui Dynasty. !
In the main hall of the palace, Shibi Khan was pacing back and forth with his hands behind his back. He walked to the door of the main hall and couldn't help but look to the distant southwest. After a long while, he cursed, "Damn Kang Sheoli, why don't you do this?" Come? It’s true that there is not enough success and more than failure.”
"Great Khan, something bad has happened!" At this moment, Ashina Zhebie and Ashina Zheluo came over in panic.
Shibi Khan suppressed the anger on his face and asked in a deep voice: "Uncle, why are you so panicked?"
Ashina Zhe calmed down and saluted: "Great Khan, an urgent report has just been sent from the direction of the tent set up in the south."
Shibi Khan's heart skipped a beat and he quickly asked: "What's the urgent report?"
"Great Khan, that Sogdian dog Kang Sheoli betrayed you; he teamed up with Du Bi's trusted generals Ashina Dogon, Ashina Congli, Pugu Taiji, Gao Manzheng, and Yuan Junzhang, and took Du Bi's entire The tribe ran away." Ashina Zhe looked at Shibi Khan with a sad face and tears in his eyes, and said: "Great Khan, they obviously fled to Liangzhou, and they are probably in the northern part of Wuwei County now."
Hearing these words, Shibi Khan felt as if five thunders were striking his head. He opened his mouth, but nothing came out...
After a long time, he managed to calm down and said: "It's my fault that I entrusted you to an unjust person. Judging from the current situation, the Sui army has already joined our sudden civil war, but judging from the performance of Wei Yunqi and others Look, they only want to save Tilifushe, and they are not directly participating in the war in the name of the Sui Dynasty, so on that side, we should stick to it first. The first priority is to repel the humble Tiele coalition army first."
"But the army!" Ashinabelo said, "We don't have enough troops."
"It doesn't matter!" Shibi Khan said with a ruthless look on his face: "The Sui Dynasty hopes that our Turks will be weakened by internal fighting. It is impossible for them to allow Zilifash to unify the Turks. This is what we can use place."
Ashinabelo asked: "Then what should we do?"
"Dou Bi is dead and his troops have retreated. The Eastern Turks have become a confrontation between us and the alliance of Tilifushe and Tiele. The Sui Dynasty hopes that the three of us will continue to fight without end." Shibi Khan Said: "We don't need to be on guard now. We can put the 20,000 elites in the Khan Court into the Kent Mountain grassland battlefield, and gather all the young men. We must defeat the Tiele Alliance before the Sui Dynasty reacts." Stains.”
"If the Tiele Alliance cannot be destroyed in a short period of time, and if Tili Fushu is willing to be the dog of the Sui Dynasty, we will retreat to the north at worst. The Huns were able to survive in the north, and then they came back, but I don't believe that our great Turks can't."
"The Great Khan has such ambitions, and we will never abandon him. However, before we concentrate our forces and fight Tiele for a last-ditch battle, we must also prevent the Sui army from going north." Ashina Zhe said solemnly: "I suggest that the Great Khan do his best. Bad intentions.”
Upon hearing this, Khan Shibi turned to look at Ashina Zhe: "Uncle, please tell me!"
Ashina Zhebie said: "In order to avoid being caught off guard by the sudden change of situation, we gathered the population and livestock first and made preparations to abandon the southern Khan Court and evacuate to the north."
Shibi Khan nodded, looked at the two gray-haired uncles, and agreed: "What my uncle said makes sense. All my efforts are focused on the war; my two uncles will be responsible for this matter."
"Yes!" Ashina Zhebie and Ashina Zheluo looked sad, but they still responded respectfully.
. . . . . . .
As night falls in Luoyang City, dots of lights have been lit. The cool evening breeze blows through the streets and houses, blowing away the thick summer air. But at some point, dense raindrops floated from the sky, making the vision blurry. Unclear.
In the flower hall of the back house of Prince Wei, Yang Ji, who had just returned from the palace, summoned Xiao Ying, Liu Rumei, Pei Shuying, Zhang Chuchen, Murong Xianyue, Xian Yufang, Liu Xu, and Hou Qiaowen.
Xiao Ying poured a cup of sobering soup for the drunk Yang Ji and said distressedly: "Why did Alang drink so much?"
"I'm so happy!" Yang Ji took a sip of the hangover soup and said with a smile.
Pei Shuying raised her eyebrows with one hand, looked at her husband with beautiful eyes, and asked with a smile: "Why are you so happy?"
Yang Ji said with a smile: "The imperial court has decided to launch the Western Region strategy, and I can be a cool and unrestrained shepherd of Liangzhou again. Haha... Aying, Xiaoliu, you can farm and weave cotton happily; if Mei, Aying, Chuchen, Xianyue, Xianyu, don’t you all dream of raising a BMW at Xiedan Racecourse? When we go there, you can ride it however you want.”
"Really?" The girls were overjoyed when they heard this.
"Of course!" Yang Ji said with a smile: "Big things have happened in the Eastern and Western Turks, huge things. I must be in charge of it personally, and the strategy of the Western Region must be developed by me myself. There is no way, who can give me the ability?" How big is it?"
"When are you going?" Even though Xiao Ying was steady, she was overjoyed and asked hurriedly.
"I'll leave the day after tomorrow, and you and Aniang will fight later with their children." Yang Ji said, "Jieli is dead, and his hundreds of thousands of people were sent to Liangzhou by our arrangements. I have to make arrangements first. , lest they cause trouble.”
The girls were not disappointed after hearing this.
There is only deep anticipation.
Although they are in the richest place in the world, they just like Liangzhou and the country their husbands conquered for the Sui Dynasty.
Although it is far less prosperous and wealthy than Luoyang, it is free. They live happily there, unlike in Luoyang, where they need to be careful about their words and actions.
Comparing the two, they like Liangzhou even more.
Yang Ji was even more excited at this time, because his journey to the west meant that the Sui Dynasty officially began to expand.
As for matters involving the DPRK, Yang Guang can easily handle them.
