Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2205 Preparations
For many people, face is really not that important sometimes.

Only when a person has enough status, face is important.

The Tang Dynasty is a superpower. For such a big country, face is very important, but the Turks are not. Although they have repeatedly fought against the Tang Dynasty, they have always been struggling to survive. Even in many cases, survival is for them. It's all a luxury.

A natural disaster may destroy them forever.

Therefore, they are shameless, shameless.

After a tribal leader said that he bowed his head to Datang, the others expressed their approval. After seeing this situation, Ashina Helu understood what they were thinking. They didn't want to fight with Xiliang.

There is Qin Tian in Xiliang, and the other one can stop millions of soldiers.

"Okay, since everyone thinks there is nothing wrong with us bowing our heads to the Tang Dynasty, then we can send people to bow our heads to the Tang Dynasty. However, if the Tang Dynasty does not agree with our surrender and still wants to destroy us, then what should we do?" How to do it?"

Everyone was taken aback, is there anyone who does not accept surrender?

Under normal circumstances, as long as someone surrenders to Datang, Datang will accept it, right?

But many things are not absolute, what if Datang really does not accept their surrender?
At this time, another tribal leader stood up and said: "Your Majesty Khan, if this is the case, we can only have more preparations. The new king of Tuyuhun is on the throne. They don't seem to be very friendly to Datang. If We can get Tuyuhun's help, so it will not be so easy for Xiliang to destroy us."

After the tribal leader finished speaking, another tribal leader immediately said: "Yes, yes, Xiliang is adjacent to Tuyuhun. After the opening of the Silk Road in Xiliang, the trade of Tuyuhun has decreased a lot, which has seriously affected the development of Tuyuhun. The king of Tuyuhun is very displeased with this development, and we may have good results by sending people to Tuyuhun."

"Yeah, that's what we do."

"........."

Tuyuhun was not very friendly to Datang. The reason why they bowed to Datang before was because they were frightened by Datang. But this branch is a disgrace to Tuyuhun. After the new king succeeded to the throne, he always wanted to Wash away this shame, so he is thinking about using troops against Datang all the time.

Now, working with them should be no problem.

Ashina Helu nodded after listening to this, and said: "Okay, since everyone thinks that we should cooperate with Tuyuhun, then send envoys to Tuyuhun, let them attack Xiliang, and relieve the pressure on our side. Or send troops to our grassland for rescue."

"Here!"

After saying this, Ashina Helu finally spoke, saying: "We have two plans, but other than that, we should also prepare for battle, Xiliang soldiers and horses will soon come to our Turkic territory , They have [-] soldiers and horses. If we fight against them scatteredly, I am afraid that we will not be their opponents. Our strength will only be weakened by them one by one. Therefore, we should concentrate all our troops. Stop them on the border, fight with them, and prevent the Tang army from burning the war into our Turkic interior, what do you think?"

When they heard that they were going to concentrate their forces to fight Xiliang's soldiers, everyone felt a little uncertain, but they had to be prepared to fight now.

Everyone looked at each other and quickly expressed their opinions.

"His Majesty Khan is right. We should indeed gather troops and intercept the Tang army at the border. Only in this way can we prevent our people from being affected by the flames of war."

"Extremely, extremely, our Turkic cavalry is very strong. On the border, we can use the speed of the cavalry to intercept the Tang army. As long as our cavalry is strong, it is not impossible to repel the Xiliang army."

Xiliang doesn't have artillery, so as long as their cavalry can crush Xiliang soldiers and horses, then they will have no problem defending their Turkic territory.

Everyone is in favor of this.

Ashina Helu nodded and said, "Okay, since that's the case, let's do this."

After saying this, the Turkic side began to get busy. They went to Datang to raise and lower their tables, those who went to Tuyuhun to ask for support went to Tuyuhun, and those who gathered soldiers and horses also started to gather soldiers and horses.

The entire Turks suddenly entered a very tense state, and everyone was preparing for the next war.

They must prepare, because this may be a battle to destroy the country.
-
In early summer, the weather on the Turkic grasslands is not very hot.

Turks have not encountered any disasters this year. Not only are there no disasters, but it can even be said that the weather is going well.

The Turkic people like this situation very much, because the water and grass on their grasslands are very plump, they can graze at will, and they don't have to worry about water sources.

In this case, their life will be much easier in the second half of the year.

Many people want to take advantage of this year's good weather to work hard and store something for the coming year, and they believe that this is not a difficult thing for them.

But at this time, some news spread among the Turkic people.

"Have you heard that Xiliang is going to war with us Turks?"

"What, true or false, why are we going to war, we... our life is finally getting better, why are we going to war?"

"Yeah, this war starts, no matter the winner or loser, our life will be brought back to its original shape."

"Who says no, this hateful war, when will we ordinary people live in peace?"

"Oh, the people are miserable, this hateful war."

"........."

Turkic people also don't like war, but they can't do anything about it. Their peaceful life is about to be broken, and they have to pay a sacrifice for the war.

But these sacrifices are not what they want to pay.

When there is a war, their khan will ask them for cattle and sheep. This is the case in every war.

They are in pain, they want to curse, but what can they do, there is nothing they can do.

The wind in the grassland is still gentle, and there is not much enthusiasm. Groups of cattle and sheep are grazing on the grassland. Many pictures are very peaceful and serene.

But such a scene will soon be replaced by war. There will be corpses everywhere, a lot of blood will be left here, and the grass here will be dyed red.

Soon, this place will become a hell on earth.

This is war, a war that these people cannot avoid.
