Suiye City was once the westernmost military town of the Tang Dynasty. The glory of the Tang Dynasty has been annihilated here for decades. It has become the ruling center of the Geluolu people and an important commercial transit station on the Silk Road.
Suiye City is located in the northwest of Atami and on the south bank of Suiye River. Although Suiye City is the home base of the Geluolu people, the royal tent of Geluolu Khan is not in Suiye City. As the leader of a nomadic people, it is impossible for him to
Build your royal tent in the city.
Among the ten crimes that Shatuo Khan Zhu Xieliang was accused of by his uncle Zhu Xiejinhai, one of them was forgetting his roots, forgetting his ancestors' living customs, and living in Yiwu City.
The royal tent of Geluolu Khan is located on the grassland north of Suiye City. It is a large leather tent, covering an area of about five acres. It is divided into numerous small tents. Although it is a tent, its level of luxury is no less than that of a palace.
Galulu Khan plotted to assassinate Amit. He was about thirty years old. He was the brother of the predecessor Galulu Khan and inherited his brother's position. He also served as the chief of the assassination department.
The murderer Amit has a square face, dark skin, and a pair of rough sword-shaped eyebrows, piercing into the heavens like a menacing figure. He looks very fierce and scary.
Amit has received reports from the fleeing soldiers and herdsmen. The Tang army actually sent troops to the Yili Valley, annihilated all 10,000 of his own troops, and drove back all the more than 4,000 herdsmen who had just moved to the Yili Valley. This news shocked Amit.
Miter was furious. He hadn't thought of sending troops to Beiting yet, but the Tang army took action first.
Amit immediately summoned ten tribal leaders to urgently discuss countermeasures. It was said to be a countermeasure, but in fact it was how to retaliate against the Tang army. This is a characteristic of the Geluolu people. They have a proverb, "Never let the anger in your heart stay overnight." If there is any dissatisfaction,
Solve it today and never put it off until tomorrow.
The same is true for hatred. You will not tolerate it. If you have hatred, you must take revenge. The so-called discussion means discussing how to take revenge?
"Khan, I have an idea!"
The captain who spoke was called Mouci Mozuo. He was Amit's cousin and a famous general of Ge Luolu. He once led an army to defeat the Uyghur West Route Army and was deeply trusted by Amit.
"What do you think?" Amit asked quickly.
"Considering my humble position, the Tang army can completely wipe out our army in the Yili Valley. Their army will not be less than 10,000 people, so Tingzhou must be empty at this time. We can send a large army to kill from the north of Cheling and take Tingzhou directly.
, the families of the Tang army officers and soldiers are all in Tingzhou, so they will inevitably retreat in panic. We will wait for work and attack head-on. In this way, we will not only capture Tingzhou, but also take back the Yili Valley."
The strategy of plotting to assassinate Mo Zuo won the unanimous applause of Chief Geluolu present. Amit thought for a moment and said: "I'm just afraid that the Uighurs will interfere!"
Another chief said: "Khan, we know the Uighurs very well. As long as their interests are not touched, they will never send troops to help the Tang army. Maybe they want a share of the pie."
You are right. The Uighur people do have this kind of virtue. They do not provide help in times of trouble, but they are indispensable for adding insult to injury. Amit finally made up his mind, "This method is feasible, so we will send troops to Tingzhou!"

In Suiye City, the scout captain Zhang Yuanzhi has turned into a businessman. He takes several followers and leads more than a hundred camels loaded with goods to stroll on Suiye Street.
The streets of Suiye are extremely lively. Businessmen from all over the world gather in this big commercial city. People are coming and going on the streets, shouts and shouts are heard one after another, and all kinds of goods are bought and sold.
Suiye City was once an important military town in the Tang Dynasty. Many Han people lived here. It is not unusual for Zhang Yuanzhi and others to have Han Chinese faces.
"Boss, let's go have a drink!" Zhang Yuanzhi's men were hungry and thirsty and couldn't help but suggest.
Zhang Yuanzhi saw a restaurant on the roadside. The style of the restaurant was no different from that in the Central Plains. There were six characters written on it, "Authentic Taibai Restaurant". It seemed to be opened by Han people, so he smiled and said: "Go and have a look!"
As they walked forward, a waiter came up to them and asked with joy on his face: "Are these guest officials from the Tang Dynasty?"
"We came from Hexi and want to have a drink. Do you have a seat?"
"Yes! Yes! Some of the guests please come upstairs and leave the camels to me and put them in the backyard for safety. Together with the goods, make sure no one touches them."
Zhang Yuanzhi asked his men to hand over the camels to the waiters, and they went up to the second floor. There were not many guests in the restaurant, including Han Chinese and other barbarians. Most of the second floor was empty. They found a seat by the window and sat down.
The shopkeeper came forward and said excitedly: "I heard from the waiter that several of the guests are from Hexi?"
Zhang Yuanzhi smiled and nodded, "Exactly, I'm talking about the shopkeeper, why is this restaurant called the Authentic Taibai Restaurant?"
The shopkeeper laughed and said, "This restaurant belongs to the Li Bai family, and the current owners are still the Li family."
"I see!"
The bartender served them wine and several plates of cold dishes, but the shopkeeper was still unsatisfied and refused to leave.
"I heard that the Tang army recaptured Beiting and Anxi, is it true?" the shopkeeper asked again.
Zhang Yuanzhi drank a glass of wine and said with a smile: "Of course it's true. Guo Shijun, the governor of Hexi Jiedu, repelled Tubo, wiped out Shatuo, and completely recovered Anxi and Beiting last year."
The shopkeeper clapped his hands and said excitedly: "That's great, we can also return to our hometown."
"Where is the shopkeeper from?" Zhang Yuanzhi asked with a smile.
"I am from Longyoushan County."
Zhang Yuanzhi's eyes lit up, "Hey! We are from the same hometown! But why is the shopkeeper's accent wrong?"
"I've been away from home for so long that my accent has changed."
When the shopkeeper heard that Zhang Yuanzhi was also from Shanxian County, he immediately asked with expectation: "How is the situation in my hometown now?"
"The year before last, Tubo invaded Longyou, and all the people in Shanxian County fled to Hexi. They haven't recovered yet!"
The shopkeeper's eyes darkened and he sighed, "Everywhere is in chaos. When will it be over?"
At this moment, a deep horn sound came from the distance, and the sound of the horn continued continuously, as if hundreds of people were blowing it in relay.
Zhang Yuanzhi was startled and asked quickly: "What are you doing?"
The shopkeeper shook his head and said, "This is the horn sound of the Geluolu army marching out."
Zhang Yuanzhi was overjoyed. He came to Suiye just to explore this information!
He drank the wine in one gulp and left two of his men to watch the camels while he hurried away with the other men...
On the grassland north of Broken Leaf, countless cavalry were gathering. The 30,000 Khan army mobilized by Ge Luolu was already in place. They carried dry biscuits, dry mutton and dry cheese and began to kill in a mighty manner toward the northeast.
Zhang Yuanzhi and his men outside the city had already reunited. They were following Ge Luolu's army, but soon Zhang Yuanzhi discovered an anomaly. This army of tens of thousands was not heading towards the Yili River Valley, but towards the northeast.
Heading in the direction.
This was an extremely important discovery and must be reported immediately. Zhang Yuanzhi immediately divided his troops into two groups. Some of his men continued to follow Ge Luolu's army, while he led ten of his men to the Yili Valley day and night.
.........
At this time, Guo Song's army was still stationed in Gongyue City in the Yili River Valley. The army spent ten days renovating Gongyue City, making it a strong city that was easy to defend but difficult to attack.
At this time, Guo Song was still waiting for the news of Ge Luolu and killed Ge Luolu's 10,000 troops. He did not believe that the other party could bear this tone. Moreover, Ge Luolu was a nation recognized as one that could not sleep overnight for revenge. Ge Luolu's army would definitely
Will fight back to the Ellie Valley soon.
That night, Guo Song was writing a letter at his desk in the big tent when a report from his own soldiers came outside the door, "Your Majesty, there is urgent information from Suiye!"
"Come on in!"
After a while, Zhang Yuanzhi was led into the tent by his own soldiers. Zhang Yuanzhi met the leader Zhang Yun and his party on the way back from Suiye. Zhang Yun heard that there was a change in intelligence and immediately ordered his men to bring Zhang Yuanzhi back to report. He continued to lead his men to Suiye.
leaf.
"I'm sorry to see you, envoy!" Zhang Yuanzhi knelt down on one knee and saluted.
"Captain Zhang, please rise!"
Guo Song still remembered this scout captain and Zhang Yun's right-hand man.
Zhang Yuanzhi was overjoyed that Shijun still remembered him. He stood up and said: "I have to report urgent information. There are about 30,000 Geluolu cavalry. They did not come to the Yili Valley, but went northeast."
