At dawn, all the corpses inside and outside the castle were removed, and Wang Yuan was invited in by his tribe to rest.
A large amount of gold and silver treasures were piled in the open space, and the exact number is still being counted.
After Yamulan retreated from his subordinates, an old man with a gray beard was escorted up by the Han cavalry. Yamulan whispered: "This is Huo Zhe Tading, the imam of the entire Turpan, the Sheikh of the Mughals, Manchu
Su'er's teacher. The man we killed in Hami was his son! His younger brother Sa Zhe'er is following Man Su'er on the expedition."
"Can you persuade me to surrender?" Wang Yuan asked.
Yamulan shook his head and said: "It is impossible to persuade us to surrender. Turpan's several invasions of Hami were all planned by this person in the name of jihad."
The old guy was still chattering, speaking some language that Wang Yuan couldn't understand, and he was probably cursing or spitting.
Wang Yuan said: "It is the father's fault if he fails to teach. If he is not strict in teaching, it is the teacher's laziness. Since he is Man Su'er's teacher and cannot stop Man Su'er from killing, then he deserves to be executed!"
Ya Mulan said: "The king is not easy to kill. Once the news gets out, there will be chaos in Turpan, and even the civilians will risk their lives to resist."
Wang Yuan smiled and said: "Then tie him up, take him as a hostage, and go out with the army."
After putting him under house arrest, he was assigned a special person to guard him, and his father-in-law came in again.
Wang Yuan's father-in-law's name is Labahan, which can also be translated as Labaha. He prostrated and said: "General, I have gathered an army of more than 700 merchants and an army of more than 200 craftsmen. I can follow the general to attack Huozhou at any time.
."
The merchant army naturally cannot be composed of merchants, but is composed of merchants' children and slaves.
Wang Yuan smiled and said: "You ask those merchants to set off immediately to Huozhou and Liucheng to spread the news. It is said that under the command of the governor of the Celestial Dynasty, the Seven Guards of Guanxi, the Ordos Tribe, and the Siwala (Oirat Mongol Alliance) have united.
A total of 20,000 cavalry have crossed the Tianshan Pass and have occupied Yangji Bali, Werumu and Turpan. Our goal is to kill all the Mughals in Turpan! Then, Yangji Bali, Werumu and other tribes will be awarded to Heshuote and other tribes.
; Grant the cities of Turpan to the two tribes of Ordos; grant the cities of Huozhou to the tribes such as Xiaolietu; and the cities of Liucheng, the Ming Dynasty will set up a new Liucheng Guard!"
La Pahan looked at Wang Yuan in surprise and he almost believed this false information.
Because except for the Ordos tribe (Yi Bu Ci, Bu Er Hai), all the other forces mentioned by Wang Yuan are enemies of Turpan. If a capable person appears, it is really possible to gather these forces together and then destroy them.
And carve up Turpan.
Mansu'er has made too many enemies!
"General, do you really want to kill all the Mughals?" Lapahan asked cautiously.
Wang Yuan said: "Those who resist will be intercepted and killed, and those who obey will be rewarded."
La Pahan was relieved. He was a compliant person and said, "I'll do it immediately."
Mughal, that is, Mogul.
Broadly refers to the Mongols and their descendants, such as the Mughal Dynasty, which is the dynasty of the Mongols and their descendants.
In the narrow sense, it specifically refers to the Mongolian tribes who live in Xinjiang and speak Turkic languages. Mansuer is the Mughal people in the narrow sense. After the demise of Turfan, the Mughals also gradually disappeared. Some of them merged into the later Uyghurs, and some merged into the later Uighurs.
of Kazakhs.
La Bahan was ordered to leave, but his daughter was sent in.
It was almost dawn, and Wang Yuan planned to wash his feet and then take a nap. The girl uneasily took the initiative to rub his feet.
Wang Yuan asked: "What's your name?"
The girl raised her head and looked at Wang Yuan blankly, obviously not understanding Chinese.
Wang Yuan could only call in his translator.
The girl then replied: "Abra."
The translator also explained by the way: "General, Abra comes from the teachings and means fragrant."
Wang Yuan said: "Since it comes from the teaching scriptures, the name must be changed."
The girl quickly knelt down and said, "Please give me your name, General."
What's a good name?
Dilraba? Gulinaza? Or Malzaha?
It seems like something strange has been mixed in.
Wang Yuan was too lazy to think about it and just said: "Since your name means fragrance, then you can call it Xiangxiang from now on."
After hearing what the translator said second-hand, the girl immediately bowed down and said, "Thank you, General, for the name. From now on, I will be called Xiaxia."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Listening to the other party's weird accent, Wang Yuan was amused and laughed, and threw out the translator.
Under the service of the girl, Wang Yuan wiped his feet and stood up to get the candle.
"Look up." Wang Yuan said.
The girl didn't know what she meant and looked at Wang Yuan stupidly.
By candlelight, Wang Yuan took a closer look and found that the girl was indeed beautiful.
She has black hair, blue eyes, a high nose bridge, and a small mouth, but her eye sockets are not sunken, her cheekbones are not protruding, and her skin does not look like a pure white person. The pores on her face are very fine, and her skin color is slightly fairer than that of Han people, so she cannot be directly identified.
What race, but more like a mixed race that has been mixed for who knows how many generations.
Wang Yuan suddenly stretched out his hands and touched the girl all over her body. The girl was so frightened that she trembled and did not dare to dodge.
No hidden weapons.
"Go to sleep."
Wang Yuan closed his eyes and lay down on the bed. He only took off his boots but not his armor. He still held the handle of the knife in his right hand.
The girl was a little at a loss and stood in front of the window for a while, then carefully climbed onto the bed. She moved to Wang Yuan's side and immediately smelled the smell of blood, mixed with a strong and pungent body odor.
There was no way, Wang Yuan only took a bath in Bali, Yangji, and then continued on a long journey. During this period, he also ate roast mutton, without adding any spices. The smell of mutton was so strong, mixed with the smell of blood and sweat, that it almost made the girl sick and vomited.
.
"Xiaxia, Xiaxia, Xingxia..." The girl repeated her new name in a low voice, but unfortunately she couldn't pronounce the syllables correctly. Because Wang Yuan only said it once, and was confused by the weird accent of the translator. She had already
I completely forgot what "Xiangxiang" means.
Xiangxiang covered her nose and wanted to move away, but she was afraid of waking up Wang Yuan.
After at least twenty minutes, Xiangxiang finally began to adapt. With the dim light of the candles in the room, she observed her husband. Although she couldn't see clearly, he didn't seem ugly.
Xiangxiang reached out to touch Wang Yuan's beard. The beard was very short, not prickly, but felt velvety.
Could this be a young man who just started growing a beard?
Xiangxiang suddenly became happy. She was afraid that she would marry a bad old man in his fifties or sixties. After all, she had just turned fourteen. All her older sisters in the family were already married. Marriage was legal in the scriptures.
Age is nine years old.
At some point, Xiangxiang finally fell asleep. She had been frightened from day to midnight, and now she was so tired and sleepy that she couldn't hold on any longer.
When I woke up again, it was already the next morning.
Xiangxiang was awakened by the movement on the bed. The Ming Dynasty general had already gotten up and was sitting on the edge of the bed putting on his boots.
"You can continue to sleep." Wang Yuan said.
Xiangxiang didn't understand, so she could only smile and bring Wang Yuan's helmet.
Wang Yuan was fully armed and holding the handle of the sword in his hand, he said: "I'm leaving. You don't have to leave here. Someone will be here to take care of you."
Xiangxiang still didn't understand, but finally saw Wang Yuan's face clearly.
What a young general, and not bad looking, far beyond Xiangxiang's acceptability.
She sent Wang Yuan out with a smile, and when she returned to the room, she suddenly started dancing. She danced blindly without accompaniment, but seemed to be in tune with the rhythm of the void.
"ah!"
Xiangxiang stopped suddenly and looked at Wang Yuan stupidly.
Wang Yuan went back to his room, picked up his riding whip, and said as he walked out of the room: "It's a good dance. Keep going, and I'll come back to get something."
Xiangxiang covered her face with her hands in embarrassment, jumped back on the bed and rolled around.
