It was the sound of steel arrows penetrating obstacles and piercing into flesh. Shibi Khan threw down the broken knife and covered the arrow shaft on his chest. He felt heartbreaking pain, and at the same time he felt that his soul was trying to move from the wound to
Escape.
When he was stinging, he saw the soldiers around him being chopped down like grass by the enemy. He suddenly retreated until there were more than 500 left, but suddenly a man rushed out and continued to chase them.
The man who came to kill Shibi Khan was a general of the Youzhou Army. He was covered in black armor and had an unusually tall body. He was not wearing the common Sui armor, and the weapon in his hand was not the common Sui horizontal sword.
Extremely ruthless, one person rushed into Shibi Khan's soldiers like a tiger rushing into a herd of sheep. One by one, he killed fourteen of Shibi Khan's soldiers in one go, and cut a passage through the crowd.
Then, he rushed toward Shibi Khan like a meteor.
"Escort!"
Shibi Khan shouted, there were no Turkic warriors around to protect him, and all he could use was a horse rein.
The steel arrow that penetrated the two layers of leather armor seemed to be alive and was still drilling into the flesh. He gritted his teeth and pulled hard, pulling the steel arrow out of his chest. He felt a burst of pain.
He felt dizzy, but at the same time he was glad that he was not dead yet. He held the arrow shaft in his hand to resist the long knife that was about to chop at him.
The black-armored general sneered slightly, swung his sword, and saw Shibi Khan's head falling to the ground.
"Luo Yi, don't kill him." Wang Junlin's voice sounded like the sound of nature to Shibi Khan's ears, almost coming in time at the moment on the edge of life and death. Luo Yi suddenly raised the knife in his hand, and Shibi Khan
A strand of hair on the top of Bi Khan's head was chopped off. His head was intact, but he was frightened to death and his face turned pale.
Luo Yi let out a long laugh, turned his horse's head, killed the dozen or so Turkic warriors who came up, and then left.
There were exactly 500 Turkic warriors left who dared to pursue Luo Yi and fled while protecting Shibi Khan who was almost frightened to death.
Shibi Khan knew that he could return to the grassland alive, not because of the blessing of the immortal god, but because Wang Junlin did not want to kill him.
As for the reason why the other party did not want to kill him, he had already figured it out just now. Wang Junlin expected that it would be difficult for him to convince the public after he returned. The next step would be civil strife in the Turks. This was because the other party did not want the grassland to be strong and wanted to see mutual exchanges among the Turks.
Massacre. And if he dies, someone from the Ashina family will definitely be promoted as the new Turkic Khan, and it will be difficult for the Turks to get into chaos.
"What a vicious King Junlin!" Shibi Khan cursed bitterly. He leaned on the saddle and continued to move forward, wrapped in the crowd. There was lingering fear on his face. Today's experience had already planted a seed deep in his heart.
The seeds of fear.
"Your Majesty, why did you let the Turkic Khan go!" On the top of the mountain, a woman with a perfect figure and appearance appeared beside Wang Junlin, but her expression was always too cold to be human. This woman was naturally Nie Xiaoyu.
, Luo Yi asked his men to cooperate with the Tornado Battalion to clean up the mess on the battlefield. He rode alone to the top of the mountain and knelt down directly in front of Wang Junlin and Nie Xiaoyu.
Wang Junlin glanced at Luo Yi and said calmly: "Let Shibi Khan go back, and the Turks will be able to have a civil war for at least three years, because Ashina Dubisi, the younger brother sent by Shibi Khan to divorce the queen, is a smart man, and he actually
Our Emperor was rescued from another group of Turks in Yanmen City, but His Majesty the Emperor wanted to make Ashina Dubi the new Khan of the Turks."
"Whether it is Ashina Dubi or Shibi Khan, as long as he sits in that position, he will be the great khan of the Turks. Therefore, the prince allowed two khans to appear in the Turks because he wanted their brothers to kill each other.
"
Wang Junlin nodded and said sarcastically: "No matter who takes the position of the Turkic Great Khan, the first thing he needs to take care of is the interests of the Turks. This will not change with his personal likes and dislikes of the Central Plains, let alone
Because he is personally conferred by the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty, he will not come to rob the Sui Dynasty."
…
…
Just when Wang Junlin was planning to plot the 30,000 Turkic Golden Wolf Guards, Yang Guang regained the majesty of the emperor in Yanmen City, and the important ministers around him were also busy.
What they were busy with was not how to save the people who had been devastated by the Turks in Yanmen County, nor how to organize soldiers and horses to pursue the victory and seek justice for the people in the frontier fortress. What they were busy with was how to commend and bestow honors on Ashina's heirs in the name of the imperial court.
.
At the same time, it was also because Ashina's heiress Shibi Khan attacked Yanmen City a few days ago, which frightened His Majesty the Sui Emperor. Therefore, in order to make the Emperor look better, the ministers below also criticized Ashina appropriately.
The heiress did not know the difference between right and wrong, and followed the reckless behavior of Khan, a thief without a king and a father, who besieged the Holy Emperor.
Of course, after criticizing, the emperors and ministers of the Sui Dynasty also expressed their praise for Ashina's great achievements in knowing his mistakes and being able to correct them, and in saving His Majesty the Emperor at the critical moment.
Naturally, some of these words should not be said too harshly, so as not to hurt the heart of His Majesty the Emperor. But they should not be said too lightly, otherwise Ashina Dubisi will not realize the majesty of His Majesty the Emperor.
.
Therefore, the ministers argued endlessly over a certain wording in the imperial edict. During the dispute, they did not forget to look at Yang Guang's face and take the opportunity to express their loyalty to His Majesty the Emperor.
"This time Ashina abandoned the dark side and turned to the bright side, all thanks to your majesty's kindness. Even if he turned into a barbarian, he would still remember it inside." Yu Shiji handed over to Yang Guang with a solemn and sincere face, and summed up loudly. These days, he
He hadn't changed his clothes, and there was a big stain on his official robe. It was the blood of a soldier who died to protect him. It had been blown a bit by the wind, so it was easy to forget.
"Since Ashinadao Bi Si met Your Majesty, he was very respectful to Your Majesty and swore to be my Majesty's subject forever." Seeing Yu Shiji's flattery, Pei Shiju, another Huangmen minister who was involved in the government, was not to be outdone.
After others.
"Your Majesty, the power of God, makes the Turkic Ashina Dubi sincerely surrender to me, the Sui Dynasty." In the county government office, which was temporarily used as a meeting place, several ministers bowed their hands to His Majesty the Emperor. The sound of flattery made the window screens buzz.
Li Shimin, Wang Rengong and other generals who had just entered the city witnessed the whole process. After being dumbfounded, they quickly lowered their heads.
They originally dissuaded His Majesty the Emperor from killing Ashina Dubi Heir and his men. After all, after they brought their troops back to Yanmen City, they far surpassed Ashina Dubi Heir's 30,000 troops.
It's just that they are all smart people. When they saw that His Majesty the Emperor and the important ministers around him had such an incredible attitude, they cursed in their hearts but wisely lowered their heads and shut their mouths.
