Chapter 43: The Khan was furious

With the battle of Lingzhou on the first day of the first month of the second year of Wude, the news of Chen Ying's successive defeat of Liang Shidu, Ashina Yizhen and Ashinash Bobi spread and spread first in the nearby counties of Lingzhou.

Even the Tang people in Huaiyuan got the news. However, now Huaiyuan is still in the location of the king's tent of Shibi Khan, and the people of Huaiyuan can only whisper, not daring to talk loudly, for fear of being slaughtered.

"Hey, have you heard, the Turkic dog thieves have been defeated in Lingzhou! The corpses were spread from Lingzhou to Huaiyuan, one by one, and the blood of the dog stained the snow red! ”

"I see, the Turkic dog thief is the tail of a rabbit, and it can't grow!"

In a ruined City God's Temple in Huaiyuan City, a group of ragged people were talking.

"What about the son of Shibi Khan? I can't be beaten and run back like a dog. ”

In the Ye Hu sweat tent set up by Li Lifu outside Huaiyuan City, there was a burst of laughter: "Hahahaha...... The son of Shibi Khan, no more than that! ”

Originally, Chen Ying beat Liversh like a lost dog, but with the news that Yizhen and Ashinash were almost wiped out, Liversh regained his self-confidence.

Since the beginning of winter, the health of his elder brother Shibi Khan Ashina Jishi has been getting worse and worse, and now there is no sign of improvement. However, the eldest son of the Emperor of the Turkic Empire, Ashnashi Bobi, who was now sixteen years old, did not show any extraordinary talent, and within the Turkic Khanate, there was a very high demand for him to replace the Shibi Khan as the new Khan of the Eastern Turks.

However, with the defeat of the city of thin bones, the lair was lost by Chen Ying, and there were only four or five thousand people left. The Turks have always worshipped heroes, and a man like Philoshim, who has lost a battle and suffered such a terrible defeat, will certainly not be proclaimed khan. Even after the annexation of Ashina Yi Bezhenmo's subordinates, the strength was basically restored, but no one in the Turks proposed to support him as a khan, but instead supported Ashinash Bobi very highly.

However, with the almost complete annihilation of the Ashinash Bowl, the Ashinash Bowl, which was originally in a good situation, turned straight down.

"Here's your chance, Sirius God, you are so kind to me!" When he saw the defeat of Ashinash, his heart was sweeter than honey. He happily danced in the sweat tent, and if Chen Ying appeared in front of him, he couldn't wait to kiss Chen Ying's boots.

"Well, now Ashinash Bobi has also been defeated, even worse than Benye Hu's!" Philip roared excitedly: "Does he still have the face to be a Turkic Khan now?" ”

Haidu happily wrote his letters on parchment, and his own soldiers, on fast horses, would begin to connect up and down. The entire Eastern Turks have four major Yehu Khans and twelve Khans, and only these sixteen people can decide who belongs to the Khan. Now that Yi Bei Zhenmo has fallen into the hands of the Tang people, whether it is life or death, it is no longer enough to consider.

And Ye Hu Ashinash and Ye Hu Ashina are brothers, and no matter how defeated they are, they will not support themselves. There are only twelve people left who can become potential allies, and the most supportive of them is his third brother Ashina Duan. Now Ashina is serving as Mo He's arguing. In addition, there are Tulong Yu and Pu Zhen to make friends with him, and among the twelve sets, only one leaf protects two sets that can stand on his side without scruples.

As long as he can get the support of his sister-in-law, Princess Yicheng of Turkic Kedun, and she can directly control the three sets under her command, then he can have five sets and one leaf protection, or through Princess Yicheng's friendship with the Khan, his chances of ascending to the Khan throne will be greatly increased.

With the successive defeats of Philosher, Yi Bezhenmo, Yizhen and Ashinash, this is something that has never happened to the Turks since the accession to the throne of Shibi Khan. At this time, there was also a rolling undercurrent brewing within the Turkic Khanate, and the Turks were clearly divided into two factions at this time. One faction fought the main battle, advocating pouring the power of the Turks and fighting a national war with the Tang Dynasty to avenge the shame of Lingzhou.

In fact, there has been a unified opinion within the Turks, calling the defeat of Lingzhou the shame of Lingzhou. But in the same way, the other faction advocates fighting with the Tang Dynasty.

The two factions began to prevaricate, which was different from the state of Chinese etiquette. The Turks did not have a gentleman's words and did not move their hands, and when they disagreed, they drew their swords against each other. In just two hours, three waves of all-martial arts had been staged in the sweat tent of the dignified Eastern Turkic Shibi Khan.

This fight, with the participation of Shekhan, was not small. Even the Tellers of their respective factions were involved in the fight. Five people were wounded, and one Teller died.

Sitting on the main seat of the white tiger in the king's tent, Shibi Khan Duji Shishi Khan's face was gloomy, as if a thunderstorm was brewing that could destroy the heavens and the earth, and the huge coercion made all the Turkic nobles dare not breathe. The beads of sweat of the Turkic nobles fell drop by drop onto the woolen blanket.

Shibi Khan was angry, and the consequences were severe.

The puppet was furious, and blood splattered five steps. The Son of Heaven was furious, and millions of corpses were ambushed.

Although Shibi Khan was not the Son of Heaven, he was the Son of Heaven. Even if he is sick now, his body and bones are not as good as before, but the tiger is still powerful, and the Turkic nobles still dare not disobey him.

At least when the 30,000 retained troops were still in the hands of Du Jishi, none of them dared to stand up and resist Du Shiji.

Gillese was very angry, very angry indeed. Since the beginning of winter, the Turks have suffered a rare snowstorm and suffered heavy losses. In this snow disaster, when a large number of old, weak, sick and disabled people died tragically, just when the snow disaster just broke out, some people proposed that while Western Qin and the Tang Dynasty were fighting fiercely, the Turks could lead troops south and attack Guanzhong.

However, he did not agree to do so.

In fact, it was not Li Yuan who declared himself a vassal to the Tang Dynasty, but because he remembered the consequences of the battle that overthrew the country. At the beginning, the Sui Dynasty was also the first to stand, and the Khan led the five little Khans to invade the Central Plains with more than 400,000 string soldiers. From Wuwei, Tianshui, Anding, Jincheng, Shangjun, Honghua, Yan'an and other counties, chickens, ducks, fish, meat and grain, everything that could be taken away were looted by the Turks, and then the Turks went back.

Although the Turks won a great victory in this war, there was a battle in Mayi that even the Han history books have written off, so that although the Turks won, they still remember it vividly. The main Turkic force Shabalu Khan had a fierce battle with the Sui general Daxi Changru, when there were more than 100,000 Turkic soldiers and only 3,000 Sui troops. The Sui army gathered together, resisted on all sides, fought fiercely for three days in a row, fought fourteen times, and when the Sui army ran out of weapons, they fought with their fists, and all the bones on their hands were exposed. This vicious battle killed more than 30,000 Turkic soldiers, and the Sui army also lost seven or eight out of ten, and the Turkic soldiers withdrew and returned.

The Turks used 30 times the superior forces, and the losses were nearly 20 times that of the Sui army, and the result could only be returned in vain. This battle shocked the Turks to the bone.

But then, Yang Jian launched a counterattack, and the initial counterattack was not a military strike, but an internal division, first splitting the Turks into two parts, the east and the west, and then concentrating superior forces to divide and strike, and the Sui Dynasty won a great victory. However, a few years later, when the Turks revealed their intention to go south, the Sui launched a second attack on the Turks, this time Dulan Khan was killed, losing more than 100,000 people. Then the third Sui Dynasty's war against the Turks started again under the command of Yang Guang, and the Turkic national strength had all collapsed.

Now, although the Great Sui has perished, the Tang Dynasty has just been established. But no one can guarantee for sure, Datang is another strong Sui. Once the Tang Dynasty was provoked, the Tang Dynasty, like the Sui Dynasty, attacked the Turks again and again, and the Turks were about to be destroyed.

It is precisely because of Shibi Khan Dujishi that he personally experienced the second Sui attack on the Turkic War and the third Sui Dynasty attack on the Turkic War, as one of the parties involved, Duji Shi can better understand the horror of the Han people.

The Han people have an absolute population advantage, and they can afford to lose 100,000 people and hundreds of thousands of people. However, if the Turks lose 100,000 horses, they will definitely lose their vitality, and if they lose hundreds of thousands of horses, they will destroy the country and the species.

However, no one in the entire Turkic tribe will understand his good intentions. If the Han people were really so easy to destroy, they would have been wiped out by the Huns and Xianbei people a long time ago, where would it be their turn to be Turkic?

"Ben Khan has long said that no one is allowed to attack Datang without authorization!" Du Jishi's majestic gaze swept over, and the heads of the ministers lowered to their chests, "Yizhen, Hutubi, Duluo, do you think that this Khan is mediocre and incompetent?" Is it to change the master? ”
