Chapter 944: King Khan is old

As the king of the Turkic Khan, Agus controlled the tribal army, the economy.

The decision made is related to the future direction of the Turks.

How could he not guard against the Tang Dynasty, the Sasanians, and put the tribe in dire straits?

Suddenly hearing Wen Boyan and Yiran's words, he leaned his head on the soft couch, rubbed his temples and reminisced carefully, trying to figure out the relationship between the Tang Dynasty, Sassanid and Turkic.

After a long time, Agus opened his eyes and said loudly: "Last year, Sassanid suddenly sent the first envoy to the Tang Dynasty before coming to the tribal peace talks, you are right, Sassanid may secretly unite with the Tang Dynasty, in a vain attempt to paralyze us and others, and suddenly send troops to the tribe.

However, the Sassanids are now gathering troops to quell the rebellion of the princes and nobles in the south, and the Great Cannibals are harassing in the south.

The Tang Dynasty is flooded in the south and the drought in the north, and the disaster is serious, even if Sassanid has the heart to seek our department with the Tang Dynasty, they are in all difficulties, who dares to take risks and launch a protracted war.

In addition, since the Sassanid alliance with the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty refused to refuse the Great Cannibals to go to the East and no longer trade with the Great Cannibals.

In the past few months, many big food merchants have come to our department to buy the goods produced by Datang, and the tribal merchants have made a lot of money.

Why don't we take the opportunity to buy all kinds of items from Datang at a low price and sell them to the big cannibals at a high price in exchange for food.

It is said that the place where the Great Cannibal is located is fertile for thousands of miles, and there is plenty of food, and if you get enough food, the tribe will definitely be able to get out of the current predicament."

There are priorities!

Datang, Sassanid did not dare to suddenly launch a battlefield when there was internal instability!

Isn't it the Turks?

The soldiers and horses did not move the grain and grass first, and after a war, the Turks must have been hollowed out, and the situation was even worse.

If the iron cavalry wins, it will barely change the status quo, but today's Tang Army is no longer the Tang Army of a few years ago!

Are the Turks sure of victory?

"King Khan, Weichen supports your suggestion, the tribe can indeed trade with the big cannibals in exchange for food, but unfortunately the far water does not quench the thirst, after half a month, the tribe needs a lot of food, and needs more water, the big food merchant still can't meet our ministry in the short term, and a certain still suggests sending troops to attack Tang."

Wen Boyan supported Argus's suggestion but still insisted on his idea.

Looking up at Agus, who had a beard, gray silver hair, and a vicissitudes of life, he suddenly felt that Agus was old in his heart.

There is no perseverance, decisiveness, and the momentum of opening up territory in the past.

An elderly male lion who cannot lead a group of lions to hunt for food is not eligible to occupy a large number of territories and can no longer enjoy the prey captured by the lioness.

"Cutting Tang, even if it is cutting Tang, you should wait for the Right Xian King, the Right Valley Liwang will lead the army to wipe out Tubo, and the tribe will gather all the elites to go south, otherwise you may repeat the mistake of the Battle of Wuding River." Agus stuck to his ideas.

In the battle of Wudinghe, the tribe lost 200,000 elites, and its vitality has not yet recovered.

What if the army is defeated if it dares to go south?

What's more, the tribe is suffering from drought and internal instability, and he doesn't want the tribe to fall into two wars at the same time, which will make the tribe's situation worse and bring about the disaster of extermination.

As a result, the tribes were brought down, the people were displaced, and families migrated.

"Brother Wang, the younger brother is willing to take the Yiran Department south to snatch the food for the tribe for the winter." Determined that Argus was reluctant to send troops, Yiran Khan chose to take his army south to fight.

Agus was afraid of wolves and tigers, and he ignored the status quo of the tribe, and he could not let the tribe continue to suffer from drought.

At the end of winter, when there was no food in the snow, many tribesmen starved to death and froze to death in the snow.

Besides, he has his own clansmen and generals behind him, and he can't help but think about them.

"Yi Ran, how many soldiers and horses you have under your account, don't you count in your heart, fighting with the Tang army, Zhang Shaoming, Li Yucheng and other generals of the Tang Army in the north, leading the army is enough to defeat the army under your account, Ansheng, think of other ways to solve the tribal problem!"

Agus did not support Yi Ran leading the army to fight alone, and in his words, there was even a sign of contempt for Yi Ran.

"Yes!"

Hearing this, Yi Ran didn't argue, and Wen Boyan, Yan Xingjun slowly walked out of the sweat tent.

In the process, Yi Ran said to Wen Boyan and Yan Xingjun: "Mr. Wen, General Yan, the Yiran Department has suffered very seriously, this king has taken the lead in returning to the tribe, and before the southern expedition, the two of you should not summon this king to come to the royal court."

"Who says it's not, my department, the left valley Liwang department, cattle and sheep are killed and injured, the water source is drying up, this drought, the most serious victims, Zuo Xian Wang, the right Xian Wang tribe is also in a bad situation, at present, except for the Hunhe Wang tribe barely survive, all the departments are eating the old book.

I wanted to lead the tribe south, but unexpectedly, the king of Khan refused." Yan Xingjun grumbled and said that the situation of the tribes.

"Since the king of the Khan is unwilling to march south, why should we do our thankless efforts, fight without permission, and end up disobeying the king's orders!" The Khan of Iran said angrily, and became more and more dissatisfied with Argus.

It was inconvenient to stay for a long time, so I turned around and prepared to leave.

At this time, Wen Boyan asked in a low voice: "Yiran Khan, General Yan, do the leaders of all the tribes want to march south, or are they just two willing to lead the army to the south?"

"What's the difference, the right Xian Wang, the right valley Li Wang two, led the army to fight, won a lot, even though the tribe disaster is serious, but still eat fragrant and drink spicy, my Yan Department, Zuo Xian Wang Department, even have no chance to eat bran vegetables.

Say that you are not willing to go south to fight and plunder materials from the Tang Dynasty, Mr. Wen, do you believe it?" Yan Xingjun asked coldly.

"The Yiran tribe insists on going south to forage for food, as long as there are tribes going south, everyone will jointly ask the Khan King for his life, and maybe there is hope." Yiran Khan's words, the corners of his mouth were a little fierce.

"Alas, the Khan is old!"

Wen Boyan let out a long sigh and looked at Yi Ran, Yan Xingjun.

"Is the King Khan old, only fifty years old!" Yan Xingjun asked in surprise, a little unclear what Wen Boyan meant.

Yiran Khan guessed that Wen Boyan had something to say, and said very cooperatively: "When this king was twenty-three years old, he was expelled from the royal court by his brother, and his father Khan was only fifty years old."

Old Khan King?

Speaking of the old Khan King, Yan Xingjun instantly resounded about the events of the year.

At the beginning, the old Khan king cowered from the conquest of the Tang Dynasty, and Agus led his cronies and generals to kill the old Khan, seize the royal power, and control the tribe.

Since then, he led the army to fight in the south and the north, and gradually supported the Hedong Jiedu envoy, the Hexi Jiedu envoy, and the Chen soldiers in the northern part of the Tang Dynasty, severely damaged the Khitan department, and controlled the Tianshan tribes.

Lead the tribe to rise quickly and become a hegemon in the north.

At this moment, the tribe is suffering from drought and urgently needs to lead the army to the south to grab food, gold and silver.

The attitude of Agus's southern expedition is very similar to that of the old Khan King's southern expedition, cowering and not having the slightest enterprising heart.

When he hesitated, Yan Xingjundao said softly: "Mr. Wen, it is better to go to the Erhan tribe, everyone will consider it in detail and discuss the way to solve the drought."

"Good!"

Wen Boyan cut the railway.

"The two of you go to the Yiran Ministry, and this king will definitely be hospitable!" A smile appeared on the corner of Yiran Khan's mouth, and he said happily.
