The sad thing about the exiled nobles is that their value is very limited. The losers in their struggle are complete losers. The people who give them preferential treatment all have ulterior motives.
Once they fail to show their value, their lives can only be described as miserable. It is not uncommon for exiled nobles to starve to death in foreign lands.
Compared with Qimin Khan who was exiled in the Sui Dynasty, the people of Chuluo Khan can only be described as miserable.
They caught up with a very bad time. When the Sui Dynasty was in chaos, who could remember the exiled nobles of the Western Turks?
Chuluo Khan stayed in Dongdu, almost forgetting that there were still some tribesmen waiting for him upstairs.
Chuluo Khan took away almost all the mature warriors in the exile team, and the rest were either children or old people, as well as a group of women.
These are all his relatives, well, relatives that he can abandon anytime and anywhere.
Ashnarongzhen, the most special one among his children, Shiboluo, the only female in Western Turks, when she was fifteen years old, she defeated the warriors of various tribes in a row at the tribal alliance meeting, and in the subsequent competition
Among them, a sword cut off the head of Chuluo Khan's bravest son, her brother.
From then on, no one doubted Ashnarong's true bravery, and no one dared to say anything about the woman cursed by the devil in front of her, even though her eyes were slightly reddish-brown, which was indeed the same as the legendary devil.
Very similar.
Of course, people don't know what happens across generations. This sudden mutation troubled Ashina Jungjin for fifteen years. After that, after he killed his brother, it was no longer a problem.
Of course, the lucky thing is that the Turks do not rely on religion to govern the country. As long as you show strong enough survival ability, you can find your place.
Unfortunately, not long after her real princess career began, Chuluo Khan became a loser and fled to the Sui Dynasty in a hurry.
Originally, they were able to get along well in Loufan, and the officials of the Sui Dynasty were also very polite to them, because they were the emperor's guests after all.
But the failure of the three expeditions to Goguryeo changed everything in the Sui Dynasty. It also changed the fate of these foreigners.
War broke out in the Sui Dynasty, roads were isolated, and food became more and more precious. Fortunately, they already had their own flocks, and they could still manage to support themselves in the face of the gradually rising food prices in Loufan.
Of course, at this time, there is no need to expect the officials of the Sui Dynasty to come to help them.
She and Ashina Yunzhen's father, Chuluo Khan. The last news came that Ashina Yunzhen was to be betrothed to a Sui noble.
However, that was also the last time Chuluo Khan sent someone to deliver messages to his relatives.
After that, the exiled Western Turks struggled to survive in Loufan County in the Sui Dynasty, with almost no hope. Maybe in ten or twenty years, they, like many of the tribes within them, would also
Integrate into the Sui people.
However, the Turkic royal court's large-scale move southward made many tribesmen tempted.
The Turkic Royal Court is so powerful. Why not join them? Speaking of which, they can be considered distant relatives.
Although, the Turkic Royal Court's southward journey seems to have brought them no other effect besides pain.
However, the tribesmen still placed their hopes on their powerful distant relatives, rather than on the Chuluo Khans who were indifferent to them, or even on the Sui people who gradually became hostile to them.
This is undoubtedly a struggle full of helplessness. When the Turks went south, they lost their flock. Without the basis for survival, they could only make this choice.
Let the women escort their last belongings to Yunzhong Grassland to find a way out.
A journey full of unknowns has been tormenting everyone in this team, except Eishina Ashina.
All her fighting spirit seemed to be vented at that alliance meeting six years ago.
She made everyone who attended the meeting remember the name Ashina Rongzhen, but she also made herself forget a lot of things.
She seemed to be uninterested in anything.
Nowadays, the difficult life does not bring her any unhappiness, because for a long time, she lived a much harder life than this.
But she could always see a tall figure with a big beard, a vicissitude of life, but extremely proud, standing in front of her, telling her young daughter word by word that glory is better than everything else.
That was her teacher, a Sui man, an extremely powerful and proud Sui man.
Likewise, he is also a man who has lost his glory.
There is no glory for those who live in exile.
With some sleepiness and numerous memories, Ashnarong fell into a deep sleep.
Early the next morning, Ashnarong was chewing hard dried meat and looking at the empty grassland. She could already smell the smell of danger.
She did not have the keen intuition of Li Chun, but she still had eyes. Not only she, but everyone in the team could see that there was a figure appearing in the distance, and like a vulture, it was hovering around them.
"Yun Zhen, take two people to ask them what they want to do."
Ashnarong lowered his eyes and gave instructions casually, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.
Ashina Yunzhen responded, called two people together, and rode towards the figure in the distance.
After a while, someone came to stand next to Ashnarongzhen and said, "Why don't you go? Why did you let Yunzhen pass? Do you know that we have arrived at Dali City?"
This is a Turkic nobleman in his forties. He is no different from most Turkic nobles, he is violent and greedy.
He is the younger brother of Chuluo Khan, a guy who always wanted to turn his niece into his wife. Now, he wants to give his niece to the nobles of the Turkic royal court in Dali City in exchange for his own survival.
Ashnarong Zhen waved his hand like a fly and told him to get lost.
Maybe it's because Ashnarong hasn't shown her madness for too long, or maybe it's because in the Yunzhong Grassland, too many unknown dangers made this guy a little crazy, and he forgot how terrifying Ashnarong really is.
He took another step forward and said through gritted teeth: "You should go and kill those hyenas yourself instead of letting Yunzhen take risks. He has an appearance blessed by the gods and a pair of eyes that can see through the night."
Ashnarongzhen suddenly raised his head, and his reddish-brown pupils reflected a strange light.
She stretched out her hand as fast as lightning, which matched her stature. She had a very long arm, and grabbed the other person's ankle. Amidst the other person's exclamation, she dragged the person to the ground.
The next scene became bloody and terrifying.
She stood up and stepped on the opponent's other ankle with a precise foot. The sound of fracture and screams sounded at the same time.
But then it stopped suddenly. She exerted great force, and in the sound of bones and muscles tearing, blood and internal organs rose up at the same time. In an instant, she tore a large living person in half.
He threw down half of the corpse indifferently, raised his head and glanced around, "Everyone, get on your horse and prepare to fight. Let us use the blood of the enemy or ourselves to retain the last bit of dignity and glory."
People looked at her in awe, their screams and panic disappeared, they beat their chests and got on their horses one after another.
They all know that the battle is coming.
Those who followed them were probably horse bandits.
The most dangerous and despicable enemy on the grassland is a group of drooling hyenas.
Ashina Yunzhen was back, and she just shook her head slightly towards her sister, which meant that their luck was indeed terrible.
Ashina Yunzhen saw the mess all over the ground and was shocked, but then he said: "It seems that Sister A has been staying in the Sui people's place for a long time. Before the Sui people went to war, they killed people to sacrifice the flag. Sister A, this
Have you also studied?"
The wandering Turkic nobles' ability to withstand emergencies has significantly improved.
The team did not rush forward to fight with the hyenas. Sooner or later they would appear in groups. They had encountered them too many times on their way to escape.
They didn't even think about escaping. They wanted to protect their last property with their lives. One of the cowardly people was almost dead, which actually made them feel relieved.
The women sat on their horses and began to carefully arrange their bows and arrows. Several boys were driven near the carriage. Although they tried hard to protest, they were still surrounded by the women.
A few old men and women are at the outermost periphery, which seems to be a relatively primitive ecological circle.
As the sun gradually rose into the sky, they finally waited for the enemy.
The sound of horse hoofbeats sounded faintly, and groups of black shadows roared and rode towards them.
There were not many people, definitely not many. Fifty or sixty horsemen surrounded their team and kept circling.
Horse bandits almost all have the same virtue.
Sloppy clothes, dirty faces, greedy and violent yelling and shouting, and there are always some miscellaneous things on the back of the horse.
Peace finally returned to the grassland, and the hyenas surrounded their prey and were preparing to eat slowly.
A big man rode out, looked up with disgust at the golden wolf flag flying in the sky, and shouted loudly in Turkic, "People walking with the golden wolf flag, where do you come from? How can they bear to give up?"
You are traveling alone”
The hyenas laughed loudly, and their greedy and greedy eyes swept over the women. In their opinion, no matter how valuable the goods were, they would not exceed this group of women.
This is really a gift from God to them, and this year’s harvest will be here.
They were facing a group of silent people. No one answered their questions. No matter how much they talked to the horse bandits, they would not retreat.
The big man curled his mouth, spat thick phlegm on the ground, and said loudly, "Brothers, be gentle and don't kill too many people. These babies can sleep comfortably on their own. It's also a good idea to sell them to the west."
