Chapter 1114: Driving the Tiger and Devouring the Wolf (continued)
Ashina Helu was indeed attracted by this topic. He put aside the matter of the Youtun Guards and sighed: "Who said otherwise? We have to go to the Han people's territory to fight life and death. We are regarded by the Han people as jackals and tigers.
Leopard, how can this be what we want? It’s not because of the bitter cold in Mobei that every time there is a natural disaster, we can’t make a living, so we can only ride south to find a way to survive.”
There is so much sadness in my words.
Tumidu almost vomited after hearing this. I have seen shameless people, but I have never seen such shameless people.
Only you Hu people suffer from natural disasters, but there are no natural disasters for the Han people? Which common people in this world are not struggling to survive? The Han people work hard and have only a few rations all year round. How can it become an excuse for you to plunder openly?
So what if you not only plunder money and food, but also people?
It's just burning, killing and looting. It's so shameless to have to say it in such a helpless and pitiful way...
He felt contempt in his heart, but could not show it on his face. He nodded and agreed: "Who says it's not the case? The Han people only know that the Hu people are cruel, but they don't know how we Hu people fight for fate and struggle to survive... Just like our Huihe tribe,
In the past two years, we have been fighting against Xijiasi, causing countless casualties and severely weakening our vitality. We have encountered severe cold this winter, and now it has been snowing heavily for many days in a row. I am afraid that many people in the clan will freeze to death. Now all the young and strong people in the clan are following me.
Come here to cooperate with the Turks in attacking the Tang Dynasty... General, it is really difficult to return to Hehe."
This is really not about spitting out the fans and crying about being poor and miserable.
Fang Junbing went out of his way to overthrow Xue Yantuo. As the two strongest Tiele tribes in Mobei together with Xue Yantuo, the Uighur people were originally happy and thought they could return to their hometown in Mobei. However, for some reason, the Xijiasi people got in touch with the Tang people.
The Xijiasi people, who received funding from the Tang Dynasty, went all the way south to attack, kill and annex, causing the Huihe people to continue to flee south, and all their troops entered the north of the Tianshan Mountains.
It's not that he can't fight to the death with the Xijiasi people, but if he wants the Tang people to be behind the Xijiasi people, Uighur can only pinch his nose and suffer the loss of being dumb, not daring to provoke the Tang Dynasty...
It seems that he was indeed beaten by Chiagas to the point where he lost all his armor and fled all the way.
Ashina Helu frowned and was a little displeased: "Khan, there is no need to suffer in front of me. Uighur is the vanguard in this battle. It is the order of the Khan. Even if I have sympathy, how can I dare to disobey the order of the Khan?"
He is not a fool, so he naturally understands what Tumidu means. He just doesn't want to charge into the battle, but how can he let Tumidu make the decision?
Tu Midu had a sad look on his face and begged: "General, it's difficult to bring back the Uighurs! There are only so many young and strong people left at the moment. If they are all lost here, I'm afraid they won't be able to recover in ten years! The Uighurs have always been close to each other.
The general is better than the King Khan. This must be clear to the general. If I can pity the Huihe people, I will only lead my people to guard the rear in this battle. The Uihe people will never forget the great kindness of the general from generation to generation! From now on, no matter who is in the world,
Don’t dare to disobey the general’s orders!”
"Well……"
Ashina Helu smoothed his greasy beard with his greasy hands, and swallowed back the words of rejection when they reached his lips.
To be honest, he had always had a good relationship with Tumido. King Khan was aloof and would not bother to eat, drink and have fun with tribal leaders like Tumido. He only had to obey orders and obey them.
But he is different.
Although he is only a general, he controls the most elite soldiers and horses of the Turks. The ambition of "who can replace him" naturally emerges in his heart uncontrollably at times.
The King of Khan is not willing to get close to Tumido. That is because there are many tribes like Uighurs under the Khan's tent. But if he can completely win over the Uighurs to his side, if he can one day make such a change...
…
A heart beat loudly.
After pondering for a while, Ashina Helu nodded first, and then looked embarrassed: "I also know the difficulties of Uighur, so naturally I can't bear to reject your request... It's just the order of the Khan to let the Uighurs charge first, how can I dare not to obey it?"
?But now that you have spoken, I can’t refuse, so you can send a group of tribesmen to show off, and the big group will follow you back. But since then, I can’t explain it to King Khan..."
Tu Midu was overjoyed, with a look of gratitude on his face. He stood up and saluted, knelt down on one knee, and said solemnly: "The general has benevolence and righteousness in his heart, and the Uighur people will never forget it! In the future, no matter what your orders are, you will obey them!"
"Haha, you and I are brothers, why do you have to be like this? Get up quickly, get up quickly."
Ashina Helu looked pleased and quickly called Tumidu, feeling a little proud in his heart. Allowing the Uighurs to postpone the battle would not only win Tumidu's favor, draw the Uighurs to his side, but also properly wear him out.
The army he brought loyal to the Khan was a clever plan to kill two birds with one stone...
At this time, soldiers came in from outside the tent and reported: "General, someone from Jiaohe City is here."
"Oh? Please come quickly."
Ashina Helu gave an order. When he saw Tumidu getting up and trying to avoid it, he hurriedly said: "It's okay to sit down, Khan. There is nothing in front of me that I need to avoid."
He is very familiar with the art of buying people's hearts.
Tumidu had no choice but to thank him and sit down again.
Not long after, a Tang army soldier was brought in. When he saw Ashina Helu, he didn't say much and presented a letter to him.
Ashina Helu read the letter carefully, handed it to Tumidu, and said to the soldier: "I know it. When I go back to your family to join the army, I said that I will attack Alagou according to the plan and let him sit down."
It's easy to respond. After I succeed, I will return to the north of Bogda Mountain immediately, otherwise I will easily fall into the siege of the Tang army."
"Here."
After receiving the order, the soldier withdrew and returned to Jiaohe City without mentioning his life.
After Tumidu read the letter, he pondered for a moment and said: "General, the Han people are treacherous and we must guard against them."
Ashina Helu disagreed, waving his hands and saying: "You don't know the current situation in Chang'an, so you are inherently worried, but there is no need for it. Fang Jun had always been against the Guanlong clan, and Changsun Wuji's two sons died one after another.
They are all inseparable from Fang Jun, so they naturally hate him deeply. This is a personal grudge. Above the court, Fang Jun, as the eagle dog lackey of His Majesty Li Er, spared no effort to suppress the Guanlong clan, even connecting Jiangnan, Shandong
The division of interests by various forces has caused repeated setbacks for the Guanlong clan. This is public outrage. With such private resentment and public anger, it is no wonder that the Guanlong clan dared to risk the disapproval of the world and secretly contacted us about the betrayal of Youtunwei, intending to kill them.
Annihilate them in one fell swoop. Under such circumstances, how dare the Guanlong Clan let us have an accident? As long as an insider falls into the hands of the Tang army, the Guanlong Clan will not be able to escape the death penalty of collaborating with the enemy, treason, and murdering meritorious deeds!"
After saying that, he stood up and said: "Let's go, gather the troops, rush to Alagou to annihilate the Youtun Guards, and then we have to cross the Bogda Mountains in the wind and snow to return to the north of the Tianshan Mountains. It is another difficult journey."
"Here!"
Tumido stood up and agreed to the promise, and left the camp together with Ashina Helu, summoned his generals, and prepared to break camp and set off to kill Aragou.
*****
Aragou.
Inside the Youtunwei camp, Fang Jun was dumbfounded as he watched the soldiers he sent to contact Tumidu return and told him about Wei Ying's plan...
I was really shocked and angry.
"Mom! Who does he think he is? How can a mere soldier of his intervene in such a major military and national matter? You are driving tigers and devouring wolves. Believe it or not, I will strip you naked and tie you up in the snow to eat ice particles? You are simply a bastard.
!”
Fang Jun was furious and furious.
What bastard dares to play the trick of "driving the tiger and swallowing the wolf"? Do you think you are the resurrection of Sun Wu or the reincarnation of Zhuge?
The danger of this is that even fools know it!
The soldier was trembling with fear and did not dare to speak. Wei Ying was his immediate superior. If an accident occurred while executing orders outside, he would naturally have to make a decision on the spur of the moment. As for whether this decision was reasonable and necessary, how could he stop it?
I didn’t say anything, if you want to be beaten or killed, just accept the punishment...
When Pei Xingjian saw Fang Jun being so furious, he knew that he was worried about the increasingly chaotic situation. At present, there were few major generals in the Youtun Guards, and the enemy was hidden and we were clear. The situation was extremely unfavorable. If he was not careful, he would fall into an abyss of eternal destruction, so he only
If you can fight steadily, how can you take risks like this?
He thought for a while and advised: "Commander, calm down. Although Wei Ying is doing whatever he wants, this plan may not be successful."
Fang Jun said angrily: "It is indeed possible to succeed, but it is more likely to be caught between the Turkic and Arab armies. It is simply playing with fire!"
Although Pei Xingjian has always admired Fang Jun, he himself is very principled. Although he knows that he should not refute Fang Jun at this time, he still insists on his opinion: "The commander-in-chief knows his lesson, I dare to ask, does the commander-in-chief have a way to defeat the enemy?"
