Chapter 803; Who should die this time?
Chapter 750: Who should die this time?

In October of the third year of Zhenguan.

Li Tang's court, Ganzhou and Suzhou staged fierce fights one after another, shocking the Quartet!
The news spread back to the depths of the grassland, Ji Li Khan’s kumiss could not be eaten anymore, and the horn cup he was holding kept spilling out...

"Hahahahahahahaha, okay, okay, that's great, tell me, how about the casualties of the Han court and Ashina?"

In the spacious tent, the goshawks who inquired about the news were also very happy;
"Back to Khan, the Han people were very ruthless this time. They continued to increase their troops. They dispatched more than 20 troops to fight against Ashina Yehu's 18 troops. They fought for seven days with heavy casualties. After watching them for seven days, the corpses brought back by the Han people could cut through the city walls, how about more than [-]?"

Ji Li withdrew his smile and quickly sat up straight;
"Sixty thousand? Is this the amount?"

"Yes Khan, there are more than 6, and the general counts them carefully every day! Absolutely not wrong! Oh, by the way, Khan, there are also many Han people who were injured..."

"How much? Say it quickly?"

"More than 6000 people!"

"That's about the same. I'm afraid the sum will exceed the number of one hundred thousand troops?"

"Yes Khan, the total number of dead and injured has exceeded [-] troops. There are two generals who died in the battle on the Han side, and there is also a general of the fourth rank who was also slaughtered by the warriors of our prairie. killed."

"Hahahahahahahahaha, Zai is good, why didn't he kill his third-rank general, that would be enjoyable, but this time it was too bad, the Han court suffered a heavy loss this time, by the way, you also found out What? Isn’t it rumored that they are coming to attack our prairie? Has the Han court closed the border and continued to increase its troops?”

"How can there be more troops, Khan? The Han court has suffered heavy casualties this time, and it is already frightened. All the towns next to our grasslands are now closed, and they are not open for business. They don't open their doors for salt. I'm afraid that our warriors from the prairie will kill them, and the last general will have to cross mountains and mountains before returning to report, and all the gates of the city are closed to prevent us from attacking them!"

"Good! Great, yes! Where's my lovely nephew? How's he doing?"

"This one……"

"speak out!"

"It's Khan, Ashina Yehu won two battles in a row, and he started to feel complacent in the end. He was a little careless in the later battles, and he couldn't even stand with the last general... Your nephew has been fighting in the subsequent battles." Not going well,
After two Burkes were killed... the Han Chinese beheaded and killed three tribal chieftains, Ha Kemu. In the end, your nephew's eyes were red, and he was in a state of despair.

He refused to listen to the dissuasion of the leaders, and went to battle in person to compete with the Han army. In the end, he was hit by three arrows from the bow of the Han people. It was a formidable one. Ye Hu was almost shot into a hedgehog, but fortunately, he was rescued by his generals. , now life and death are unknown!

Then the tribal leaders under your nephew didn't dare to delay, they directly blew the horn, and retreated with the dead and alive. If it wasn't for this reason, the fighting between the two sides would not have stopped at all. "

"Hahahahahahahahahahahaha, I knew that there was no one in my prairie who was afraid of death. This nephew Ashinasheer is really a hero, oh! The Han people are too cunning, they made many tough bows and arrows Don’t go close to the fight, just shoot arrows and hurt people like that, his grandma, if you go close to the fight, how can the warriors on my prairie be afraid of their Han people? Look at what happened this time? Ah! Seriously hurt my lovely nephew, they are not considered heroes !"

Ji Li Khan pretended to feel sorry for his nephew, causing all the generals under the account to sigh;

"Hey! Ye Hu fell into the scheme of the Han people!"

"Isn't it? The last general guessed that the Han people must have lost twice on purpose, calling Ye Hu careless!"

"Yes, I think so too. I am not born with Han people. I have been fighting with them for more than ten years. I know the plots and tricks of the Han people best. Don't be careless when you are told to win."

"Let's talk about it, let's take a look. Now the Han people have killed three hakemu, and the life and death of the commander-in-chief is unknown? Sigh...you can't underestimate the Han people!"

"That's right, underestimating the Han people will suffer, and the big man who is also involved is worried about his nephew!"

Ji Li gritted his teeth angrily on the surface, but he was extremely happy in his heart. He wished he could build a bonfire and have fun right now!

"Come here!"

"Khan! What are your orders?"

"Reward him with thirty sheep and five cows!"

"It's Khan!"

"Let's go Burke, I'll show you the way!"

"Okay, Dahan, I'll go back first!"

"Go, go, come, come, generals, please, let's have another drink!"

"Sweat please!"

"Generals, please!"

Not to mention that Jili Khan relaxed his vigilance here and ate and drank, only said that in the big camp outside the two states of Gansu, Li Yu was personally instructing the cooks in the barracks to make stewed pork, and the pots of horse meat came out. The smell made the soldiers swallow their saliva non-stop. These were the wounded horses left over from the previous defeat of Kuqi. They slaughtered a batch every few days and ate fresh ones every day!

"Did you all see clearly this time?"

"I see the handsome man clearly."

"This kind of bone soup is the most nutritious. It means that the body will be strong and strong after eating it. However, one meal can't be used up. You can cook horse bone soup at least three times. Remember, don't pour it after a meal, get more soup out. It is more than ten times better than drinking cold water."

"It's handsome, I'll remember it all."

There are a group of unshaven tall men around Li Yu, although they are wearing Han clothes, but a discerning eye can still tell them, these people are not used to Han clothes, they seem a bit awkward...

After talking with the cooks about the cooking techniques, Li Yu used an iron fork to pick up six large pieces of horse meat and put them on the chopping board. With a sound of the knife, the horse meat was cut into a large pile like a hill.

A group of big stewards from Li's second room nearby were busy arranging dozens of large coarse porcelain bowls in five rows, neatly.

Li Yu was wearing a white chef's uniform and a high white chef's hat on his head. He was humming a song while dividing the meat and serving bone soup!
At this moment, a group of messengers galloped in from outside the barracks, and the ear-piercing bamboo whistles rang all the way. The leader quickly passed through several tents and came to the open space where Li Yu and the others were cooking;

"Report!"

Li Yu didn't even raise his head;
"whats the matter?"

"Report to the Commander, 1 troops from the left and 48 troops from the right, together with [-] troops from Chang'an, and [-] horses drawn from the two prefectures of Gansu, pursue Ashinasheer's troops for [-] miles."

Li Yu continued to make delicacies as if he didn't hear it, and after making more than a dozen bowls, he distributed them to a group of people next to him.

"Well, how is the battle going?"

"Returning to Commander, the battle is fierce. Our army has more than 1 casualties. Ashinasheer's troops were unconscious because of the serious injury of the commander. , and beheaded a big leader of them, and now they are running all the way back to the depths of the prairie. Several generals of the court, as well as the generals of the two states of Gansu, asked the future to ask the commander if they could continue Chase?"

"Huh? Oh, stop chasing, everyone is tired, oh no, everyone has suffered a lot of casualties. Besides, if we chase down, we will go deep into the grassland. We are not familiar with the terrain, and we can't get supplies. It’s winter, when the food and grass run out, it’s just a scene where every day should not be called the ground is not working.”

While Li Yu continued to be busy, he casually asked the person next to him who was eating horse meat;

"What do you generals think?"

The nine elders who were asked agreed one after another;

"The handsome and wise!"

"The handsome is right!"

"It's really not suitable for chasing anymore."

"Yeah, the casualties are too heavy."

Li Yu nodded;

"Pass down the order to take back our troops and close the gates. The soldiers have to rest and recuperate."

"only!"

"Take my words to the generals in the court and the commanders in the cities of the two states, and they will know what to do."

"only!"

"Send another order, there are too many wounded in the barracks, put up notices everywhere, call for doctors to help!"

"only!"

"Okay, there is nothing else, go down and pass the order!"

"It's handsome!"

Li Yu distributed the horse broth to a large group of dozens of people, and he was the last one to serve the bowl. After eating a few mouthfuls, he suddenly touched the body of a bearded man next to him with his arm.

"I heard that you are not old? Did you kill another Hakemu chief?"

The bearded man named by Li Yu was Ashina Sheer, who was wearing Han Chinese clothes. He had lived here for four or five days. I sealed a third-rank official position myself!Finally got in touch with the Han court, Ashinasheer looked forward to the court coming down to negotiate experts every day!

Ashinasheer, who was devoted to eating meat, responded casually;
"Oh, it seems that the fighting was really fierce, and another big leader died. By the way, who should die this time? Gelu, don't eat it first. Look how ugly you are when you eat? It's like you haven't eaten meat. This time it's your turn."

A strong man with a height of 1.9 meters stopped his chopsticks and answered quickly;
"Ye Hu, I already died in battle the day before yesterday, so it should be Abugrad's turn this time, right?"

"Ye Hu, I'm Burke from a small tribe, the one who died in battle today was just said to be a Hakemu!"

"That's right, Abu Gele can't die. His level is a bit wrong. I said, Lao Li, you can't always kill the leaders of my big tribe? If this continues, how many people will be left?"

After swallowing a mouthful of rotten horse meat, Li Yu put down his chopsticks;

"Then how do you arrange it? Otherwise, can the nine surnames of Tie Le relax? Can Xue Yantuo's department cheer up?"

"That can't always be like this?"

"Didn't you just say, order to withdraw the troops, isn't there still a few big leaders alive?"

"Oh yes, you said just now that you don't want to fight, forget it, now you are a handsome man, you can do whatever you want, I will eat my meat quickly, good guy, the rumors outside are true, the best cook in the world It is you, Lao Li, I think you are responsible for cooking for Changshengtian in the sky, otherwise how could you make such delicious food?"

"Ye Hu, you are right!"

"I think so."

A few bearded men answered casually and began to eat and drink, a middle-aged strong man shook his head;
"Ye Hu, more than 7 of our soldiers and horses have been killed or injured, and the rest of them are really tired!"

Ashinasheer, who was about to continue eating meat, put down the bowl and chopsticks again, and said very seriously;
"I warn you, Gelu, no matter how tired you are, you have to persevere. Those who are dead or injured have to live in peace. They lie down during the day and pretend to be dead, and then ask them to eat at night. You must not let your feet slip, or you will be dealt with by the military law! Especially you The tribe is almost dead, we must explain clearly!"

"Don't worry, Ye Hu, I've explained everything to my three brothers. With their personal supervision, those who died will live in peace. They won't be given anything to eat or drink during the day, and no one will disobey the military order."

Li Yu, who was squatting on the ground eating horse meat, suddenly took a bite;
"I said, old man, don't keep staring at the dead. The living are the most important. If the living are talking and laughing every day and are full of energy, a blind person can see that we are fake!"

Ashinasheer, who was squatting beside Li Yu and holding a large coarse porcelain bowl, immediately stopped his chopsticks and nodded repeatedly;

"That's right, what Lao Li said is right. Abu Gren, you should sue Hu Erlingtu and ask him to pay more attention to these aspects. The most important thing is to be alive. You can't let outsiders see it!"

After Ashinasheer finished speaking, the second personal guard beside him, Abu Gren, swallowed a mouthful of horse meat in a hurry;
"It's Big Khan, the last general will send someone to report to General Lingtu again."

"Hurry up and arrange it, remember to repeat it twice, the living is the most important, just as important as the dead."

"It's sweat."

After sending away the fierce generals under his command, Ashinasheer came to Li Yu with some hesitation;
"Lao Li, I told you not to rush to eat?"

"Hmm... what's wrong? Is the stewed pork I made delicious? This bone soup is the most nutritious. I have to eat another bowl."

After a period of contact, Ashinasheer, who was already very clear about the habits of the Han people, became more fluent in Chinese.

"Hi! Of course what you cook is the most delicious in the world, but that's not what I'm talking about. I'm worried that if we make this, will it..."

Before Li Yu could speak, the First Elder of Li's Second Household who was sitting on the rock next to him spoke;

"Could it be something? Ye Hu speaks a little bit more when he speaks, otherwise we really can't understand."

"Ye Hu, just say what you have to say. Don't be like those civil servants in the court. They don't tell you what they come and go. It's a headache for people to guess."

"Then I'll say it straight, everyone!"

"Ye Hu, please tell me."

"What I mean is, if we hide from the world like this, will we not take the capable people of other tribes too seriously? This... This is simply a... Anyway, it's too fake. The commander was hit by three arrows, and his life and death are unknown , why do I feel guilty?"

As soon as Li Yu finished eating a bowl of bone soup, the accompanying maid picked it up, Li Yu wiped his mouth and looked at Ashinasheer who was squatting on the ground;

"Why are you guilty? You just stay here to eat, drink, and enjoy yourself. Just follow what I said. After telling them to go back, they will try their best to find Han Chinese doctors to go to your tribe. The bigger the momentum, the better, but there are two points. You must pay attention!"
