Fight for it.

The huge royal tent outside the city gathered the nobles and generals of the Uzbek army in the morning. Nineteen people in total.

With the arrival of logistical supply teams, the morale of the Uzbek army was high. The cry for battle was high.

Jia Huan killed Sewell and a thousand others in the thirsty city, claiming to be ten times revenge. Moreover, after seizing the rich Ning Yuan Kingdom, how could they have no ideas?

The question now is whether the army will continue to conquer Samarkand, about 500 miles away, to the west, or will it fight with the Zhou army to the east for the Ningyuan country?

The Khan of Chingu was about fifty years old, of medium height, wearing a camel-colored cloth shirt and leather armor, and had the sturdy and thick of a steppe man. The hand holding the wine glass is rough and calloused. I don't know if it's because of drinking, or because he is in high spirits, at this moment his face is full of red light, and his eyes are blazing looking at the people in the king's tent, with a sense of coercion that has been in the top position for a long time.

"Let's talk about it, big guys! Shall we first go west to collect beauties, or will we go east to collect goods and silver? ”

"Haha! Khan—" There was a burst of laughter in the tent. Merry and relaxed! Then they came up with ideas.

Beauty and silver are all good things, and men want them. And the Zhou army, who is in his early 10,000s, what is so terrible?

…

…

At the end of September, the early winter in Dunhuang is the time when the colors of mountains, woods and oases change. Red, yellow, brown, alternating from dark to light, like a colorful jade belt.

Dunhuang, like a green gem on the vast Gobi Desert, exudes charming charm in the time and space of history, in the eternal yellow sand!

Bahule and Princess Wanguo came from Mobei with a caravan of about 80 men and entered Dunhuang on the afternoon of September 28.

The South Silk Road has been opened by Jiahuan, and the city of Dunhuang is extremely prosperous. The caravan of the two was not eye-catching among the many caravans on the Silk Road. What is striking is the outstanding appearance and demeanor of the two.

Bahule had the road guide issued by Jia Huan in his hand, which was unimpeded in the territory of the Zhou Dynasty. Take the caravan and stay in several courtyards under the inn in the East Market. I went out to inquire about the news, and returned in the evening. Discuss with Princess Wanguo in the courtyard.

"Jia Huan is in Ningyuanguo. He was going to Samarkand to fight for the stones. Your Royal Highness Princess, let's first follow the South Silk Road to Shule. Then decide to stop. ”

"Then will you go to the silver mine in the Green Ridge to see your relatives first or go to Ning Yuanguo for revenge first?" Princess Na Min of Wanguo was dressed in a white shirt, with beautiful jade faces, beautiful eyes, and the outfit of the prince of the world, handsome and indescribable, elegantly sipping tea and asking.

A pained look appeared on Bahule's face. It's hard to choose.

…

…

Crushed leaves.

In September, the clouds of war once hung over this place, hanging over the hearts of every Turgish.

At that time, Tangut, the general who stayed behind to guard Broken Leaves, was defeated under the city of Naryn, and 10,000 elite horsemen went to invite the battle, only more than 3,000 people fled back. It can be described as a fiasco. The Khan of Fengde was furious in Gongyue City.

And the sharpness of the firearms of the Zhou army left an extremely deep impression on the nobles, generals, and soldiers up and down the Tuqi Shi: if the Zhou army attacked Broken Leaves, would they be able to hold it? This was the question on the minds of the powerful men of the Turgish tribe at that time.

In late September, the land under the jurisdiction of the Turgish people gradually became tense, and the streets and alleys were talking about the Zhou people. Armament increased. A large number of grain and grass and troops began to be transferred to Crushed Leaves. Ordinary Turks have felt it: draw into soldiers.

However, the recent news is really breathing: the Zhou army is on an expedition to Samarkand.

In a mansion south of Suzaku Street, Tang Gut and several henchmen drank and talked freely.

"I'm finally gone." Tangut sighed. Zhou Jun made him very stressed. Their cavalry shooting, of course, can shoot and scatter some of the ranks of the Zhou army. But the exchange ratio between the two sides is as high as 1:7. Now, there are 80,000 troops in Shattered Leaf City. Leaning on the fortified city, he had the confidence to hold the broken leaves. However, how much more can his sons and daughters win against the Zhou army?

A Qianhu said: "General, this Jia envoy is too affectionate and beautiful, not a hero!" Like our Great Khan, who gave up the great beauty Princess Unige and went to Gongyue City to command the battle, he is the real hero. ”

"Sidiko, the Great Khan is not here, what's the use of you slapping on the back?"

"Haha!"

The atmosphere is relaxed. Tangut picked up his glass and took a sip. From the city of Naryn to Samarkand, the journey was about 1,500 miles. The expedition of the Zhou army must be powerless to break the leaves again.

…

…

Suzaku Street.

Three families away from the Tangut Mansion is the residence of the princess Unige. Her beauty and fame have spread throughout the high society of Shattered Leaf City in the past few months. She has become a celebrity at various banquets in the city.

In the evening, Unige drank a few glasses of his own, and in the cold and windy early winter, he ordered the maids to boil hot water and bathe in wooden barrels.

The delicate, graceful snow body is soaked in hot water. Only the neck is exposed, and the skin is delicate. Unyri, with his green hair scattered and stained with drops of water, leaned against the wall of the barrel, closed his eyes and pondered, while four maids served.

The news that came in recently was known to Uniri.

Jia Huan surprised her with a great victory over the Tuqi Shiren with Wenchen, and she paid attention to this new standard-bearer. She is the flower of the prairie, of course, towards the man of the prairie. This worries her.

However, Jia Huan went to fight Samarkand because of a woman!

As a woman, she admires such a man unusually! Thousands of dollars are easy to get, but lovers are rare. But, from a political point of view, this is an extremely stupid decision!

…

…

Unizh's idea is undoubtedly very representative. The view of the entire Shattered Leaf City is about the same!

In a relaxed state of mind, with vigilance! They were wary of the Zhou army in Naren City, which was four hundred miles away. After all, there are 8,000 of them!

However, the string in my heart is finally loosened.

…

…

On September 30th, when the dignitaries and dignitaries in Broken Leaf City gathered for a banquet and rested, Broken Leaf's satellite city He Hunting City and Ye Zhi City were outside the wilderness.

A group of camouflaged Zhou cavalry was observing the geography in a maple forest. The first work is none other than Shen Qian, a famous general of the Zhou Dynasty. After more than a month's trek, an army of 40,000 drawn from Tocharian was about to arrive in the city of Naryn.

If he knew the evaluation of Jia Huan in Shattered Leaf City, he didn't know what to think?

Not a hero? Stupidity!

Hehe.

…

…

On the second day of October, it was nearly a light snowfall. Ten days later, the vanguard of the Zhou army, 1,000 men, at the Tajik coast of Tibaili, which was about a hundred miles away from the battle, exchanged fire with the reconnaissance cavalry of the Uzbek army heading east.

As the saying goes: I want the fish, and I want the bear's paw. The 50,000 troops under the command of the Qingu Khan were divided into two routes: 10,000 people attacked Samarkand in the west and plundered the beauties, and 40,000 people took Ningyuan Kingdom in the east and plundered the city.

The Qingu Khan and the military nobles under his command were not afraid of the Zhou army, which had sharp firearms. They have experience fighting armies with firearms. However, they are all veterans of the battlefield and will definitely not underestimate the enemy. After understanding a certain situation, 40,000 people were sent to attack the east.

And Samarkand is just a lost dog that survives.
