Chapter 33 Surrounding Situation (Part 1)

Just when Sun Xiurong was carelessly leading people to explore minerals and inspect the forging situations in the Hongshan area, about a hundred miles east of Hongshan, on the north bank of Raole River, in Xinchengzi Town, Linxi County, later generations, there was a large area of ​​white tents densely placed on the high ground.

Like all nomadic tribes, all tents guard a huge tent.

One is all white, made of two layers of tent cloth, with golden lace embroidered at the end of the top layer, and a three-stranded fork on the top of the main beam of the tent, and two streamers woven from nine huge wool balls on the three-stranded forks.

This is the tent of Khan Li Huaixiu, the leader of the eight Khitan alliance.

It is about ten miles away from Raoleshui. Compared with Raoleshui, the terrain here is about a hundred meters higher. From here to the south, all the way to Raoleshui, the terrain decreases accordingly. Although Raoleshui is not abundant, it is also extremely powerful. However, its water level cannot rise here.

The Khitans' tent was originally in the east, but now they have moved to a place less than a hundred miles away from the Hongshan, the holy land of the Khitans, which shows the ambition and determination of the Khitans.

Since the Khitan tribe appeared in the Central Plains dynasty, it was originally the Eight Ancient Tribes and then the Eight Central Tribes. Now, after the reform of Niri, a new Eight Tribes have been formed.

During the Central Eight Tribes (Southern and Northern Dynasties), the Yi Shibu is the most powerful. At present, the Yi Shibu is divided into two tribes, the Yi Shibu and Dila tribe, but these two tribes are still the one with the most Dingkou among the eight tribes.

After Sun Xiurong appeared not far west of the Khitan royal court, Li Huaixiu quickly learned that at the beginning, he did not take it seriously, and he also wanted to send troops to attack.

But in the end he didn't make it.

"Damn Nirry!"

In the big tent, Li Huaixiu, who was twenty-eight years old, had a fleshy face and a goatee, cursed viciously.

He did not succeed in the end, of course, was not the legendary Ye Army's powerful strength. In Li Huaixiu's eyes, no matter how powerful he was, he would definitely be vulnerable after a long journey of more than 10,000 miles.

He did not make a move because the military power of the alliance was not in the hands of the nominal leader of the alliance, but in the hands of the alliance Yilijin. Although the eight Khitan tribes are still the most Dingkou of the B-Second Division, the chance of using the B-Second Division to challenge Sun Xiurong, who has been named the governor of the Ministry of Mind by Qin of the Tang Dynasty, is not very good at not seeing it.

What's more, the abominable new leader of the Diela tribe, Niri, actually personally participated in the heaven sacrifice ceremony of Sun Xiurong's successor to the Khan of the Qun tribe!

In this way, if the B-Secretarius tribe wants to use force against the Cun, he will definitely be opposed by Niri.

When Li Huaixiu thought of Niri, he was furious and started to curse in Khitan language in the big tent. This scolding made the servants who were serving in the big tent frightened.

It took a long time to calm down, but Li Huaixiu finally calmed down.

Not long ago, he received several groups of envoys.

It was these three groups of envoys that gave him the possibility of breaking away from the Khitan alliance actually controlled by Neri.

"If you rashly attack the Jun tribe and the other tribes led by Niri don't support it, it will be better if you win. If you lose, your B-shift division will probably be divided up by Niri and others."

This first group of envoys actually came from An Lushan, the governor of Pinglu Jiedu, of the Tang Dynasty!

In theory, for the Xi and Khitans, An Lushan is definitely an irreconcilable enemy. It can be said that An Lushan has been the most important minister since he was the first to be a member of the emperor. Most of his merits come from these two. Every time An Lushan's official robe changes some colors and patterns, the two pieces are stained with blood and tears.

It is said that the border tribes are the "walking merits" of the border generals of the Tang Dynasty. In most cases, that is just a talk. At most, it still occurs in blackmail. Although the Tang Dynasty set up a large number of guards and capture cities everywhere on the border, most of them are not in line with the truth.

Only An Lushan never regarded these two works as a walking merit throughout his life.

In the eyes of both people, An Lushan is a demon and a great enemy, and he wishes he could kill him quickly.

But at the moment they could only endure it. Even if the eight Khitan tribes mobilized all the troops, there were only 20,000 cavalry, of which half of them were elite, and only one Pinglu Jiedushi had more than 30,000 elite soldiers!

If the terrain north of Yanshan was not too complicated, with An Lushan's nature, it would be better to destroy two troops in one army.

Of course, Li Huaixiu, who is familiar with the allusions of the Central Plains dynasty, knows that "raising enemies and respecting themselves" is the usual practice of border generals. If the border is quiet and peaceful, wouldn't they have no reason to exist?

Thinking of this, Li Huaixiu, who had just replied to her mood, couldn't help but throw a white jade bottle in front of her to the ground.

The floor of the big tent was covered with a thick blanket, and even so, the white jade bottle was broken into several pieces.

The people who were lying on the ground became even more trembling, and everyone was trembling, fearing that Li Huaixiu would be furious and pulled out his sword and killed people randomly.

However, when Li Huaixiu thought of another force, she felt calm again.

This force is very powerful. Although it is as anxious as a dog that has lost its family, its strength is still the highest in the grassland.

As for the other group of envoys, Li Huaixiu ignored him at all.

In his mind, this person is not worthy of talking to him.

This person is the chief of the lord of the lord of the Xihe tribe, one of the five tribes of the Xihe tribe. After he was defeated by the Thunder Ye Army, he sent an envoy to him as soon as possible.

When Li Huaixiu thought of the defeat of the Lord of the Yuhe tribe, he finally calmed down completely.

"How sincerely did the Turks want to attack the Mumen? It is said that when they were in Yinshan, Sun Xiurong reached an alliance with Usumi Shi Khan. At present, the two Turkic khans stood together. Although they still had great prestige on the grassland, anyone with discerning eyes could see that Usumi Shi and Ashinashi must have a battle."

"The powerful Uighurs, the Geluo people did not take action, so they were naturally waiting for the two Turkic khans to kill each other. If Usumishi Khan wanted to attack the Muslim tribe, it would be fine in Yinshan. Why should they wait for the present? I really can't figure it out."

It turned out that the second group of envoys were actually Turkic people!

"If what the Turks said was true, under the attack of our tribe, the Turks and the Master of the Shihe, the Shihe tribe had no physiology. However, when the Tang army was still under the Yinshan Mountains to suppress their tribe, how capable is Wusumishi to draw out troops to attack the Shihe tribe?"

"well"

Li Huaixiu sighed.

It was the sigh that made the people who were lying on the ground finally breathe a sigh of relief, because they knew that after the sigh, Li Huaixiu was going to convene people to discuss.

Sure enough, Li Huaixiu pointed at someone and said, "So quickly pass the elders of the ministry over, I want to discuss major issues!"

Not long after, several old men from Room B entered the tent with the support of others.

After hearing Li Huaixiu's remarks, an old man said, "Khan, since that man has come and defected, why not listen to his opinions? This person is a Tang Dynasty man, and is very familiar with Turkic people. He has also fought with Sun Xiurong. He has been neglected by Dashen for a long time. Now, such a major event concerning the rise and fall of the tribe, why not invite him to consult for a while?"

Li Huaixiu's eyes lit up.

It turned out that a person came from the far Western Regions not long ago and came to join him. However, he did not pay attention to it at that time, but he just arranged a tent for him to live there.

"What I said is, please invite him over!"

After a while, a middle-aged man in Tang suit walked into the tent and bowed to Li Huaixiu.

"Meet the Khan"

Li Huaixiu nodded, pointed to a thick cushion on the left and said, "Mr. Wu, these Japanese knights have a lot of affairs and have neglected them. Now I am just in time. I heard that Mr. and the grassland and the Central Plains are very well-versed. Please come here to ask for advice..."

It turned out that this person was actually the second-person figure of the Mukun tribe in the Western Turks, and Wu Duozuo, a descendant of Wu Yanxiu!

Since Mohedagan's death, Wu Duozuo's status in the Mukun tribe has been much worse than before. After Gu Duoluo inherited Tuqi Shi Khan, he took over the power. He also vaguely believed that Wu Duozuo had put Mohedagan in danger, so he was very distant to him. When Wu Duozuo saw him, he thought that staying in the Mukun tribe would have wasted his time, so he found an opportunity to run out.

What he didn't expect was that he ran to the Khitan tribe thousands of miles away, and his destined enemy Sun Xiurong also came nearby!

He had many ways to deal with Sun Xiurong, but Li Huaixiu was just polite on the surface and didn't like him in his heart. He was originally planning to return to the Turkic tribe because his mother's clan was still in Mobei after all, and when he was packing his bags, he didn't expect to be summoned by Li Huaixiu.

After hearing Li Huaixiu talk about the situation roughly, Wu Duozuo pondered for a moment and said, "The Turks also had envoys coming, which is strange. The Turks are now enemies on all sides and have reached an alliance with the Thunder Ye Army. It is said that the alliance will not be torn down at this time, unless..."

"Unless what?"

Wu Duozuo said: "For the Turks, they had two great enemies of life and death. One was naturally the Tang people who destroyed the Khanate, and the other was Xue Yantuo who colluded with the Tang people. The Tang people were invincible and Xue Yantuo also disappeared. The current enemy is actually the Uighurs, Gelulu and Baximi. This section does not exist. May I ask the Khan, who other people have come to the headquarters except the Turks?"

Li Huaixiu hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "Mr., the Pinglu Jiedushi An Lushan, the governor of the Tang Dynasty, also sent someone here. Ben Khan was a little surprised. The Grand Governor of the Ministry was a Qinshi of the Tang Dynasty, and the Pinglu Jiedushi was also a Qinshi of the Tang Dynasty. Why did he provoke it in the middle?"

Wu Duozuo smiled and said, "The Khan is also a prince named by the Emperor of Tang. It's better not to mention the situation. I believe the Khan is the one who knows the best. I don't know what An Lushan's envoy said after coming?"

After Wu Duozuo said this, Li Huaixiu immediately remembered something.

"When Mr. said this, Ben Khan thought of something. After An Lushan's envoy arrived, he seemed very sure that the Turks would send troops. At that time, I thought that Pinglu and the Turkic king's tent were thousands of miles apart, so this person must be lying. Now that I think about it, it must be because of the cause..."

Wu Duozuo nodded, "A man from An Lushan has heard a little about this person. Since this person is so sure, he probably sent an envoy to Usumishi Khan at the same time. Those who asked Usumishi Khan to ignore Basimi around him and the Tang army decided to send troops must think that he had to send troops."

"Is it because Sun Xiurong and Ashinashi became sworn brothers?"

"Impossible, Ashin Shi knew about this when he was in Yinshan."

At this time, an old man suddenly said: "The Shattered Ye Army defeated several iron tribes along the way, including the Tieler people and the Dangxiang people. He also moved a large number of Dingkou Bu to the Jun tribe with them. Is this the reason?"
