Great Tang Southern Emperor

After climbing up, Xin Qimou looked around for a while, and found that there was no ambush in the surrounding area, then shook the rope, and soon the rope in his hand was heavy, and began to lift the person up, and went back and forth twice. up.

After getting down to the top of the mountain and walking for a while, Xin Qimou said, "Khan" after finding it was relatively safe.

"Don't call me Khan." Ba Zhuo said coldly, "I'm not Khan yet. I'll call you this name after I avenge my father Khan and really inherit the position of Khan. If I don't avenge my father Khan, I will call you Khan." Never call me sweat, just call me by my previous title now."

"Yes, Prince Bazhuo (that's what Khan's son seems to be called)." Xin Qimou was noncommittal, and it didn't matter what he called him: "We are still in danger now, Tumidu may find us fleeing at any time, For the current plan, there are two ways to go. The first one is to take refuge in Datang. The Duhu Mansion is only one day away from Huahua Canyon. As long as we can find a few fast horses, we should be able to arrive in Tumidu. In the Protectorate’s Mansion, safety can at least be guaranteed. But in this way, we are likely to become puppets of Datang, and Datang’s current attitude is unknown, and it is not known whether they will support our war against Huihe.”

"Don't go to Datang, go to Uncle Alai." Ba Zhuo looked in the direction of the Protector's Mansion and said, "Although the Great Tang wishes for us to fight, the Protectorate's Mansion cannot represent Datang after all. Even if they want to support us, they It is also necessary to inform the imperial court, once again, Xue Yantuo may no longer exist after the Great Tang joins the war."

"It's just that this road is not safe. Even if we ride alone, it will take more than five days to reach Mr. Alai." Xin Qimou wondered: "First of all, we need some good horses, and there are horses to avoid Tumadu. Chasing and killing, the last thing is the supply along the way, if there is any missing, we will lose our lives."

"Don't worry about supplies and horses." Dadushe said suddenly: "Father Khan has already noticed Tumidu's wolf ambition. Although he doesn't know when he will do it, he has arrangements for this. Before guarding the mansion, Father Khan had already ordered the team to be divided into two parts. The large force was to attract the enemy's attention on the bright side, and another 50 people were scattered to hide in secret. It's just that I didn't expect Tumidu to be so impatient. Do it as soon as you leave the Protectorate's Mansion."

"Father!" Ba Zhuo burst into tears again.

"Okay, don't cry." Da Du set said impatiently: "Let's go quickly and contact them when we get to a safe place."

"Yes."

Chapter 217 Was Calculated......

Chapter 143 It Was Calculated

The Huahua Canyon is already covered with blood, and the corpses are piled into mountains. Yi Nan's corpse is also among them. When Tu Midu came to the canyon, he saw Yi Nan's body at first sight. The dead body of Yi Nan was silent - the two of them had known each other since they were young, and they could be said to be both enemies and friends. Although they were hostile to each other, the moment they really saw Yi Nan's body, they still felt a sense of sadness.

"Father, the corpses have been counted, but the corpses of Dadu and Bazhuo have not been found." Po Run came over with a weapon and reported: "The people below found a rope on the cliff of the canyon. They probably came from both sides. The one who escaped from the cliff, shall we go after him?"

Tumidu was silent for a moment, and said: "No need, the most urgent thing now is to go back to Huihe, there has already been a fight there, and I can't do it without me."

Porun smiled and said: "That's right, anyway, Xue Yantuo has been beaten by our surprise attack, and now it's a mess, so what if Dadu sets up and pulls back?"

"Leave some people to bury the corpses, and the rest follow me immediately."

"Yes."

That night, elites gathered in the Protectorate's Mansion. Except for Qibi Heli, who was still acting as an image ambassador to publicize outside, and a few people with special missions, almost all the people with military ranks above the school lieutenant gathered in the Protectorate's Mansion to discuss matters. hall.

At this time, Fei San, the leader of the Flying Tiger Army, was reporting the situation: "Your Highness, in the battle of Huahua Canyon, the entire army below the Yimen was wiped out, and the Huihe side also suffered heavy losses. It has escaped safely and is now heading towards Yuanshanbu."

"Is that so?" Li Zhen understood: "Is there any news from Xue Yantuo? I always feel that the arrangement of Tumidu is a bit abnormal."

"Well, not yet, but according to the inferences of the subordinates, Tu Midu may have already started to attack Xue Yantuo." Fei Sangong said: "What Tu Midu lacks most now is time, so he is likely to be double-sided. Blossoming, on the one hand, sniped Yi Nan in Huahua Canyon, and on the other hand, commanded the army to surprise Xue Yantuo, and at the same time spread the news that Yi Nan was dead, so that Xue Yantuo would be in chaos."

Li Zhen nodded: "That makes sense, what do you think we should do now?"

"This..." Xue Wanche pondered for a moment, and said: "Your Highness, I think we don't need to do anything now, just wait."

"Wait?" Li Zhen asked: "Waiting for Xue Yantuo and Huihe to decide the winner?"

"Yes, the power of Huihe and Xue Yantuo is not much different. Although Huihe has the upper hand now, it will still take a long time to decide the victory. Not too late."

"Do you all have the same opinion?" Li Zhen looked around and asked.

"Yes, all my subordinates have this opinion." Not surprisingly, except for a few people, the rest of the people maintained the same opinion as Xue Wanche.

"What about Duke Wei?" Li Zhen looked at Li Jing: "You don't seem to agree with the opinion of the right deputy governor."

"His Royal Highness, I really do not agree." Li Jing said: "Tu Midu is not a simple character, we can think of it, how can he not think of it? How could he make a wedding dress for my Tang Dynasty?"

"Then Wei Gong means that the speed of exhalation must be multiplied?" Li Zhen asked.

"This is for sure, and it must be the hole card that can quickly resolve the battle." Li Jingsu said: "Although we don't know what the hole card is, we have to guard against it. Therefore, we must give Xue Yantuo some support."

"It's easy." Li Zhen nodded and said with a smile, "It happens that a batch of new equipment will arrive tomorrow. Let's sell the equipment we replaced to Xue Yantuo. I believe Ba Zhuo will be willing to pay a high price for it."

"I'm afraid it's not enough just to have equipment." Xu Maogong reminded from the side: "To quickly resolve a war, the trump card of vomiting speed must be very powerful. Ordinary equipment alone may not be of much use."

"What does Yinggong mean?" Li Zhen subconsciously felt something was wrong.

"Your Highness, don't you have a batch of grenades?"

Li Zhen finally understood the plan of these people, and immediately jumped up: "Hey, why are you so honest today? It turns out that you have taken a fancy to my baby."

"Hey hey, isn't this also for the sake of my Tang Dynasty? You also know that the Tiele people respect ghosts and gods the most. If you throw a batch of grenades at a critical moment, it will not only kill and injure the Huihe people in large numbers, but also reduce the enemy in large numbers. Morale." Li Jing said politely, without any embarrassment on his face: "And I think that grenades alone may not be enough, your cannons"

"Stop!" Li Zhen was really angry: "Okay, Li Jing, you are so generous, you can just give a grenade, but you have the idea of ​​practicing cannons, do you know how much a cannon costs? Do you know how much a cannon costs? How much does a shell cost? Did you know that we don't even have cannons ourselves?"

Xu Maogong repeatedly said: "Your Highness, I know, I know, we all know this, but we don't give it for nothing. If Xue Yantuo wants it, he has to exchange it for something. Not to mention making money, at least there is no problem getting back the money." right? We are not at a loss."

"I didn't say whether it's a loss or not." Li Zhen struggled: "I'm mainly afraid that they will turn around and bombard us with cannons. Besides, not everyone can play this cannon. He needs professional training. Xue Yantuo doesn't even know how to read, are you sure they can shoot out the shells?"

"Your Highness, don't worry, we have discussed all of these." Li Jing smiled and said, "It is definitely impossible to bombard us. Although the cannon was given to them, the shell is in our hands. The cannon without the shell is just a decoration. You can rest assured. As for the artillery problem, this is easy to solve. Xue Yantuo has no artillery, but we have, and our artillery is also lacking in actual combat. As long as Ba Zhuo agrees, we can help them fight. Isn't this solved? "

Xue Wanche raised his hand suddenly and asked, "I have a question."

"Deputy Protector, please speak."

"Sending the artillery out, doesn't that mean we are participating in the war? In a two-on-one situation, will Tumidu continue to fight?"

"You don't have to worry about the deputy governor." Li Jing said: "We can wait for Tumidu to show his hole cards before participating. And don't forget, at that time, the war will not stop if Tumidu wants to stop. In other words, since Yi Nan was killed, this war can no longer be stopped, otherwise the only thing waiting for him is death."

"Yes, the subordinates understand."

"I just don't know what you mean, Your Highness"

"All right, all right, you guys can do whatever you like. I'll leave the matter of equipment to the two deputy chief guards, and everyone should go about their own affairs." Li Zhen was about to drive people away: "That's all for today. Well, when there is a situation, I will inform everyone again, all go down."

"Wait a minute, Your Highness." Xue Rengui suddenly stood up.

"What's the matter?" Li Zhen frowned, not because of anger, but because he knew that with Xue Rengui's meticulous thinking, he might have missed something.

Xue Rengui respectfully said: "My subordinates feel that we should pay attention to the Western Turks. It is very likely that Tumidu has hooked up with the Western Turks."

"Western Turks?"

"My God, how did you forget that?"

"That's right, if Xue Rengui hadn't reminded us, we really didn't notice."

"It's okay, it's okay, something big happened almost."

""

There was an uproar in the hall, and there were voices of discussion and joy everywhere—the Western Turks are a powerful country in the world, and their national strength is only inferior to that of the Tang Dynasty. Moreover, both the Western Turks and the Eastern Turks were split from the Turkic Khanate. Thinking of dominating the Turks.In the past, the two sides were evenly matched, and no one could do anything about it. Now that the Eastern Turks have been destroyed, the grasslands are in chaos, especially the northern grasslands are beyond the control of the Tang Dynasty. As long as the rulers of the Western Turks are not fools, it is impossible to capture them without sending troops.

"Everyone, don't panic." Seeing this, Li Jing said, "We really should guard against the Western Turks, but we don't have to be too nervous. The Western Turks are certainly strong, and I, Tang Dynasty, are not easy to mess with. If the Western Turks really dare to send troops, It will inevitably lead to the counterattack of our Tang Dynasty, and that will be another national war. My Tang Dynasty is in full swing now, and even the Western Turks dare not really offend us. And based on our inferences, with the cunning of Tumi , I am afraid that they will not really sign any contract with Western Turks."

"Makes sense."
