After Xilin Khan Turoch saluted, he introduced: "Chanyu, this is Mr. Xu Xu, who came to see you on the order of Mr. Duhu."

Shan Yu nodded slightly and motioned for several people to sit down.

The etiquette of the Xile people is not as complicated as that of the Tang Dynasty. Xu Yun and others sat on the ground on the left and right.

Shan Yu naturally understood that Xu Yun came nominally on the orders of the Anton Protectorate, but this was just a cover. Wang Xingchao sent envoys under this name.

Although the Liaodong Army has real power, in name it is only a local garrison in the Tang Dynasty and is controlled by the Duhufu. According to the military laws of the Tang Dynasty, the Liaodong Army needs orders from the Ministry of War and a warrant from the Duhufu to mobilize troops and horses.

The seal of General Anton.

Generally speaking, these three things are indispensable.

Even if you encounter a critical moment and cannot get the transfer order from the Ministry of War, you must have the warrant from the Protectorate and the seal of the general. You will also need to make up the transfer order from the Ministry of War afterwards. Otherwise, it is against the rules and you will be detained if you are not careful.

He was charged with arrogantly mobilizing troops with the intention of treason.

Therefore, the military operations of the Liaodong Army can only be carried out in the name of the Protectorate.

The Liaodong Army is a local garrison with only two responsibilities. Internally, it maintains order in the four northeastern counties, and externally, it prevents invasion by foreign invaders. According to the military laws of the Tang Dynasty, the army is not allowed to get involved in finance. As for diplomacy, it is never allowed. Therefore, the Liaodong Army

Nominally, they are not allowed to have direct contact with any surrounding tribes.

However, the Liaodong Army had violated these military laws many years ago. Not only did it control the Fucheng trading market and financial resources behind the scenes, but it also had frequent contacts with surrounding tribes in the name of the Protectorate. The imperial court knew this well.

I know, but I can only turn a blind eye.

"How are the Protector-General and the General?" Chanyu looked at Xu Yun and asked.

Xu Yun said with a smile: "Everything is fine. The general asked his subordinates to say hello to Shanyu. In addition, he learned that Zhang Ta was getting married in two months, so he specially ordered his subordinates to come and give generous gifts."

Shan Yu smiled faintly, and Bu Liudazhang, who was sitting next to him, also smiled broadly and said, "Thank you, General, for your concern."

Shan Yu is naturally not a fool.

It is true that Bu Liuda Zhang will get married in two months, and the tribe has begun to make preparations, but it is still early. Even the tribes under Bu Liuda's protection have not started giving gifts, but Wang Xingchao's actions are too fast.

, of course, this is not really to celebrate Tadu's wedding, it is just under the pretense.

Someone brought milk wine, poured the milk wine and stepped aside. Chanyu picked up the wine bowl and tasted it slowly, calmly and calmly. Xu Yun also took a sip and looked sideways at Chanyu. Seeing that Chanyu was calm and composed, he asked the person opposite

Xilin Khan winked.

"Chanyu, Mr. Xu is not only here to celebrate Tadu's upcoming wedding, but also to discuss important matters." Xilin Khan was the first to speak.

Shan Yu said "Oh", but he was very straightforward: "Master Xu, speak directly if you have anything to say. Bu Liuda and the Liaodong Army are brothers, and brothers can talk about anything."

"The Chanyu said it well." Xu Yun said with a smile: "Actually, I am here because I hope that the Chanyu can assist the Liaodong Army in suppressing the rebellion."

"Counterinsurgency?"

Xu Yun nodded and said: "The rebels this time are naturally not ordinary bandits, but rebels who forged imperial edicts under the banner of the imperial court."

"Master Xu is talking about Long Ruijun?" Tado suddenly asked.

Xu Yun said: "Tado is wise!"

"It's not that I'm smart." Tatu was also very straightforward and said: "The Liaodong Army is very powerful. In addition to the Long Rui Army in the four northeastern counties, are there other forces that are your opponents? We just got the news that your Liaodong Army was defeated.

At the hands of Long Ruijun...!"

Chan Yu coughed, and Tado immediately fell silent.

Xu Yun sighed: "What Tatu said is absolutely true. Our Liaodong Army was indeed defeated at the hands of Long Rui's rebels. However, it was precisely because of this that we knew that Long Rui's army rebelled. Originally, we only thought that the Liaodong Army was under the imperial court's orders."

According to the order, we went out to train troops and neglected to take precautions. The last time the Liaodong Army mobilized to suppress the bandits, they did not expect Long Rui's army to take the opportunity to besiege our army. Our army was caught off guard, and they were caught off guard."

"I heard that the Long Rui Army is just a ragtag group. Even if they are attacked, the Liaodong Army will not be unable to deal with them." Shan Yu stroked his beard and asked: "Is the Long Rui Army really ferocious?"

"Actually, they are really just a bunch of rabble. If the Liaodong Army counterattacks with all its strength, it will not be difficult to defeat them." Xu Yun said: "But Qin Xiao forged an imperial edict and claimed that he was promoted to champion general. He also confused right and wrong and claimed who

Those who are enemies of Long Rui's army are rebels. Because of that imperial edict, the officers and soldiers of the Liaodong Army did not dare to act rashly, which led to the great defeat."

Shan Yu said: "Then Mr. Xu came and asked our troops to help suppress the rebellion. I don't know how to explain it?"

"After the defeat of the Liaodong soldiers, the morale of the soldiers was affected." Xu Yun said: "Some people even still think that the imperial edict is true. Shanyu, the general ordered, when you see Shanyu, you must not be hypocritical, but tell the truth truthfully. Our army

Morale was low, and the general felt that a big victory was needed to boost morale, so he sent his subordinates to ask the Shanyu to send a troop of troops to help quell the rebellion."

Shan Yu solemnly said: "If the imperial edict is true and our troops send troops to attack Long Rui's army, wouldn't the Tang Dynasty court regard us as rebels? Master Xu, you should know that Bu Liuda's tribe has long surrendered to the Tang Dynasty.

We are loyal ministers of the Tang Dynasty, and we will never be enemies of the Tang Dynasty."

"It is precisely because your army is a loyal minister of the Tang Dynasty that the general asked Shanyu to send troops to quell the rebellion." Xu Yun immediately said: "Chanyu can rest assured, the main force attacking Long Rui's army is still our Liaodong Army, and your army will

Ma only needs help. If the court really pursues the case afterwards, the Duhufu and the general will bear all responsibilities and have nothing to do with your department." He took out an official letter from his arms, stood up and presented it to Shan Yu: "This is from the Duhufu.

The order to mobilize troops has been stamped by Lord Protector, and Shanyu has this order in his hand. If someone really wants to ask about the reason for sending troops, this order to mobilize troops will be the evidence."

Shanyu took the order to mobilize troops, glanced at it a few times, did not put it away, put it on the table and said: "How many troops and horses will be mobilized by the Duhu Mansion?"

"There is no specific description in the troop mobilization order." Xu Yun said, "But the intention of the Protector-General and the General is to mobilize at least two thousand troops."

Shanyu and Xilin Khan looked at each other.

Among the three tribes of Xile, the one with the largest population and the widest area is naturally the True Feather tribe.

Although Bu Liuda's strength is not as strong as that of the Zhenyu tribe, the total number of the tribes is hundreds of thousands. If there is a war, almost all men can go into battle. Even in normal times, they will always have nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses available at any time.

Combat.

For Bu Liuda, two thousand troops and horses were not too small to say the least, but not too much to say that they were too many. He still had the ability to send two thousand troops.

"Chanyu, please don't misunderstand." Xu Yun seemed to be worried that Shanyu was wrong, and immediately said: "What I mean is that the two thousand soldiers and horses mobilized by your department are the undead army!"

As soon as these words came out, Shanyu frowned, and Tadubu Liudazhang, who originally didn't dare to say anything, changed his expression and said, "Master Xu, are you kidding?"

As we all know, the Undead Army is Bu Liuda's trump card.

The undead army has always been composed of three thousand people, but the selection of these three thousand people is extremely strict. Almost every one of them is a bloodthirsty beast crawling out of the dead. They have no concept of death, and their only duty is to live without death.

Do not use any extreme measures to kill your enemies.

Bu Liuda was feared by other forces and did not dare to act rashly. An important reason was the existence of the undead army.

The Bohai Kingdom was much more powerful than the Sixth Division at the beginning, but Bohai spent a lot of manpower and material resources to fight in the Black Forest for many years. In the end, it failed to incorporate the Black Forest into its territory. Among them was the unparalleled Undead Army.

War exploits.

Even Bu Liuda himself admitted that without the Immortal Army, not only would the Black Forest have long been in the possession of the Bohai people, but even the Bu Liuda tribe would have ceased to exist.

Now that the Liaodong Army is mobilizing two thousand undead troops to attack Long Rui's army, it is simply unbelievable to Buliuda who is present. Even Xilin Khan was obviously a little surprised. He frowned and said: "Master Xu, you should

We know the importance of the undead army to our tribe. With the undead army protecting the tribe, we will not be afraid of any enemy." After a pause, he glanced at Shan Yu, and seeing the solemn look on his face, he continued: "We need to transfer the undead army.

, I’m afraid our department cannot agree.”

"Of course we cannot agree." Tadou said firmly: "With the undead army transferred, Buliuda's defense will be weak. Once the enemy invades, the consequences will be disastrous."

Shan Yu raised his hand to signal everyone not to say anything. He looked at Xu Yun and asked, "Master Xu, is it the general's intention to transfer the undead army from Bu Liuda?"

"Exactly." Xu Yun nodded.

Shan Yu's face had regained his composure at this time and said: "Sir Xu just said that Long Rui's army is indeed a ragtag group. Mobilizing our troops to help is just to boost the morale of your army. In this case, why do we have to mobilize the undead army? Even if

If we send a thousand warriors, we will be invincible."

"The Immortal Army has a great reputation. Maybe they went to the battlefield. When Long Ruijun saw the Undead Army, their morale immediately collapsed and they won without a fight." Xu Yun stood up slowly, pointed outside the tent and said: "The gifts I brought this time,

In addition to the gifts to congratulate Tatu on his wedding, there are also rewards for sending troops. Those jewels are worth at least 200,000 taels of silver, which should be treated as commercial silver for the troops sent by the Undead Army, and will be handled by the Shanyu. The Lord Protector and the General promised that your army will enter

After the invasion of Northeast China, all expenses were borne by the Liaodong Army. In addition, there was a reward of 300,000 taels of silver after the war."

The Buliuda people in the tent were all a little surprised.

Five hundred thousand taels of silver is certainly not a small amount for Bu Liuda.

Although the Buliuda Tribe has hundreds of thousands of people, it is still sparsely populated and the tribe's resources are actually far richer than those of the Bu Zhenyu Tribe. Not only is it unable to raise a large number of war horses and trade silk horses in the Tang Dynasty, but it also controls most of the territory.

The area is surrounded by barren mountains and rivers, and is quite barren.

In addition, for the control of the Black Forest, the dispute between Buliuda and the Bohai people has never stopped. The resources consumed on this every year are a huge number. If the climate is normal, it will be fine, but once there is a natural disaster, the tribe will lose money.

With a large number of people and animals, and the climate in recent years has been really bad, Buliuda's survival is actually very simple.

Five hundred thousand taels of silver was only a small amount to the Tang Empire, but to a tribe in a remote area, it was a huge number.

"Of course, this is just a deserved reward." Of course Xu Yun could see the change in Bu Liuda's mood, and he was confident, and continued: "The Lord Protector and the General also promised that as long as Guangning City in Liaoxi is conquered, the Immortal Army

You can take away everything they want, and you can bring them all back to your ministry." Fu Xu smiled and said: "Guangning City is the administrative seat of Western Liao Dynasty. It is very wealthy. There are many good things in the city, but they are no better than those of lower officials.
