Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2159 Bad news and good news
Turkic king city.

Ashina Helu's heart suddenly stabbed, and then he became a little uneasy.

But why he was uneasy, he didn't know.

"Did something happen at Yumen Pass?"

Thinking about the possibility of accidents at Yumen Pass, Ashina Helu felt a little restless. His son is still at Yumen Pass. Could it be that his son has become a captive again?
However, there are only a group of women in Yumen Pass, so isn't his son a match for a group of women?

He kept comforting himself in his heart, but at this moment, a guard hurried over.

"Your Majesty Khan, something is wrong."

Sure enough, something happened, Ashina Helu's face suddenly turned pale, and he asked, "What happened?"

"On the way to Xiliang with soldiers and horses, Erhu met Hu Shiba under Qin Tian. There was a fierce battle between them. My Turkic soldiers and horses were not the opponents of Hu Shiba. They killed them all. Well, after Hu Shiba killed the two tigers, he drove directly to our Turkic grassland with his soldiers and horses. He killed the tribes as soon as he saw them. Now many tribes in our Turks have suffered."

Hearing that something happened to Yumen Pass, Ashina Helu finally breathed a sigh of relief, as long as there is nothing wrong with Yumen Pass, the Erhu, although he asked him to blow up the coal mine, but more, it was just to attract Tang Jun's attention, to put it bluntly Yes, he is used to sacrifice.

Therefore, the two tigers died when they died.

However, hearing that Hu Shiba slaughtered tribes on the grassland made Ashina Helu a little angry. If all his Turkic tribes were killed by Hu Shiba, would it be okay?

"Damn it, send people to stop them. We can't let them continue to hurt our Turkic people. Since this Khan is a Turkic Khan, he should think about our Turkic people."

After Ashina Helu finished speaking, someone was ordered to retreat immediately.

At this time, Ashina Helu breathed a sigh of relief.

But on the third day after he breathed a sigh of relief, a news came suddenly.

"Your Majesty Khan, something is wrong, something is wrong."

Ashina Helu's heart was about to jump out, why did something bad happen again?

"what's going on?"

"Your Majesty Khan, there is news from Yumen Pass that the eldest prince... the eldest prince..."

"What's the matter with the eldest prince?"

"The eldest prince died suddenly."

Hearing this, Ashina Helu slumped on the ground, he couldn't believe the news, his son was still very young, how could he die suddenly?
"What's going on, what's going on here?"

The guard told Ashina Helu about the situation from Yumenguan. After hearing it, Ashina Helu's face was ugly and his heart hurt. During the war, his son was still lingering with women, so that To die suddenly from exhaustion is simply a disgrace to their Ashina family.

He has always thought that his son is not bad, but now it seems that he really regrets having him.

Incompetent, especially incompetent, and don't know what to do and what not to do.

But he was a father after all, and while he was angry, he was also in pain.

"My son..."

It is a tragedy on earth for a white-haired person to send a black-haired person.

"No one is allowed to say anything about this matter. Just say that the eldest prince died in the battle with the Tang army."

To the Turks, death in battle is glorious after all, and it sounds much better than dying in a woman's belly.

After Ashina Helu gave this order, he said again: "Tell the soldiers at Yumen Pass to let them come back."

His son is gone, and the remaining troops are Xiliang's opponents. Even if they can capture Yumen Pass, they will be taken back by the Tang army soon, so all he can do now is to It is to reduce the loss and let those people come back as soon as possible.

Of course, what Ashina Helu didn't know was that those people would never come.
-
The spring spirit in Chang'an City is already strong.

Spring can be seen everywhere, colorful and colorful, which makes people like it.

And at this time, the news of Yumenguan's great victory came.

In the palace, Yuan Lou told Li Shimin the news.

Li Shimin was a little surprised when he heard the news.

"These Xiliang female soldiers really wiped out [-] Turkic soldiers?"

"A thousand or so people escaped. To be precise, it should be about nine thousand."

There is not much difference between nine thousand and ten thousand.

Li Shimin was still very shocked. He didn't expect that these Xiliang female soldiers were not inferior to the men in the slightest.

In this way, the strength of Xiliang's troops will increase again.

"Xiliang is safe, and my land in the northwest of Tang Dynasty is also safe."

Although the increase in Xiliang's military strength is not what Li Shimin wants to see, but Xiliang is safe, and Datang is safe, which is what Li Shimin wants to see.

Many times, Li Shimin is contradictory. As an emperor, it is easy to confuse selfishness with the interests of the family and the country, but he cannot confuse this. Sometimes, he must consider for the use of the family and the country, and the so-called Worrying, even if he was very worried, didn't happen, so he had to put this worry back.

Yuan Lou didn't say anything, and he didn't need to say anything. Li Shimin didn't need him to comment. All he needed to do was to send the news.

The east and west cities are bustling.

"Have you heard that those female soldiers at Yumen Pass stopped [-] Turkic soldiers and almost wiped them all out?"

"Tsk tsk, this Xiliang female soldier is really powerful, she can't lose to the man at all."

"Who says no? They are really powerful. Now that Yumen Pass is guarded by them, there is no need to worry about safety."

"I heard that many people are already preparing to go to the countries of the Western Regions for trade. We have been blocked from the countries of the Western Regions for so long, and many goods from the Western Regions are very expensive. made money."

"Yeah, I'm already preparing to go to the Western Regions..."

Merchants are sensitive to business opportunities. If the Silk Road is safe, then they must go to the Western Regions for trade as soon as possible. After their goods are brought to the Western Regions, they are all in high demand. It is easy to make money. It is very easy to say.

Even if you don't want to go to the countries of the Western Regions, you can just stay in Liangzhou City. Liangzhou City has a big commercial street. Although it is a little worse than the eastern and western cities, it is still very good.

As long as they arrived in Liangzhou City, they would have no worries about selling their goods, and it would not be difficult at all to get some rare items to sell in Chang'an City.

For them, this is simply a profitable business.

No one will miss such an opportunity to make money.
