Datang Longya

Chapter 338 Ashina Ayi's Suspicion
"You still didn't see what you said, why didn't you dare to look at me?"

Ashina Ayi stared at Leng Feng, Leng Feng said helplessly: "Then do you want me to see it or not?"

Such a sentence instead caught Ashina Ayi. To be honest, she certainly didn't want to be seen clearly, but if she wasn't seen, she would have no excuse to blackmail Leng Feng.

Difficulty ah!
The taste of fried noodles is good, at least it is very tempting to Ashina Ayi. It tastes like their buttered tea, but it is more filling than buttered tea.

Ashina Ayi exhaled the heat from the big bowl, and couldn't help asking: "Leng Feng, what is this?"

Leng Feng smiled and said, "This is fried noodles. I came up with the idea. Our chefs in Tianxialou researched it. It's usually a powder. As long as you brew it with hot water, it will become a delicacy or a beautiful soup?"

Ashina Ayi looked at Leng Feng and said, "I really don't know how your brain grew. You should have created the most mysterious thunder weapon in your Datang army."

"You already know?" Leng Feng looked at Ashina Ayi with a half-smile.

Ashina Ayi smiled slightly: "What you don't know is that I know you very well about the Central Plains. In the entire court, there are only one or two people who count as characters. Except for the emperor who is really powerful, it is the five surnames." Those people at Qiwang, am I right?"

Leng Feng nodded: "You're right, the five surnames and Qiwang are the most powerful people besides the emperor. But what does this have to do with your suspicion that I created the thunder weapon?"

Ashina Ayi smiled slightly: "Of course it does. I have never seen an emperor who can let anyone be so indulgent. Chang'an, at the foot of the emperor, you can have a troop of your own moving back and forth but no one can stop it, except you It’s so high and powerful that the emperor can’t afford to offend you, even if the emperor values ​​you to the point that he doesn’t care that you have your own troops. I really can’t think of any possibility other than you being the creator of the thunder weapon.”

Leng Feng clapped his hands: "The analysis is very similar to that. I would suspect that your name is not Ashina Ai, but Edogawa Ai."

Ashina Ayi drank all the oil-fried noodle soup in the bowl, and said seriously: "Duke Xi, what is the purpose of your going north this time? Are you planning to attack our Western Turks from the north to the south?"

"Pfft..." Leng Feng laughed: "Why do you guess and guess, but you guessed this result? Pinching the Western Turks? Just relying on us? Don't be kidding."

"Then why did you take the risk to cross here? More than 2000 people crossed the enemy territory. If it wasn't for flanking back and forth, I can't think of why you would do it."

Ashina Ayi looked at Leng Feng earnestly. During the day, she slept enough for an afternoon, and she was not sleepy at night. Tossing and turning, all she could think about was why she encountered Leng Feng in this place, Leng Feng brought so many people, and appeared strangely What do you want to do here.

After much deliberation, perhaps there is only one explanation that "attacks the western Turkic west with the army back and forth".

Holding the noodle soup fried in oil, Leng Feng blew on the hot air, and said leisurely: "You are persecution paranoia, attacking you back and forth? At this time? With this few people? Wake up, Datang has just experienced a plague of locusts, unless You take the initiative to tease us, otherwise we would not have the time to seek your bad luck."

A large locust plague has caused no people in the country to live. The imperial court has done its best. Last year, in several areas with good harvests, the food stocks were requisitioned to Guanzhong, the hardest-hit area, and the treasury was empty enough to run.

The simplest example, Cheng Yaojin and Yu Chigong, they did not even receive food and grass support when they dispatched troops, only the money allocated by the emperor to press their pockets~

The words "unless you tease us" seem tough, but they are actually used to scare her. If the Western Turks really go south, although they cannot invade successfully, they can still achieve great results and directly threaten Datang's national strength.

All because of lack of food!If there is food, who will the Tang Dynasty's iron-blooded army that rose up in the troubled times at the end of the Sui Dynasty be afraid of?

Ashina Ayi nodded, regardless of the Tang people or the Turks, the strength of a war is not only measured by the number of troops, weapons and equipment, but also food and grass.

Before the army moves, food and grass go first. This is a common principle all over the world. An army without food and grass support can do nothing.Datang has experienced locust plagues, and its food reserves must be insufficient. It is indeed unlikely to attack Western Turks.

Ashina Ayi breathed a sigh of relief. Although she understood this truth, she still couldn't help doubting Datang's actions. To be honest, she was frightened by Datang in the past two years.

Datang, who was obviously still under the threat of the Eastern Turks and had no confidence in competing, actually assassinated Xieli, and then formed an alliance with them to wipe out the Eastern Turks in one fell swoop.This is not over yet, Gaochang was destroyed by the Tang Dynasty following the East Turks, and Qu Wentai was also captured alive.

Two consecutive battles to destroy the country, such a record was rarely seen in the Central Plains people in the past.She really doubted whether the emperor of the Tang Dynasty would be addicted to playing drugs, and then find them Western Turks.

In the past, the huge Western Turks were naturally not afraid to break arms with Tang Guo, but now...

Ashina Ayi looked at the arrow boxes that the sergeants carried on their backs even when they were eating, and the iron balls hanging on their waists. Now that Tang State has such magical weapons, it is hard to say.

Even though she hid behind the board that day, she still felt the great power of the weapon called "Human Thunder".

As for such weapons, each of those soldiers had more than a dozen around their waists!
Seeing that she was silent, Leng Feng ignored her, and told Li Erniu and the others to hurry up and pack up the tent and set off on the road. It is still extremely hot, so it is best to go in the morning, but if you go further north, a few months later, there will only be days. During that period of time, you can hurry.

The large army set out and continued to move forward. With the honor of the Ashina family, Ashina Ayi succeeded in getting a war horse exclusively for her, so she didn't have to ride in a car.

She prefers riding a horse to riding a car.

For a girl who grew up on the grassland, her riding skills were far from what a rookie like Leng Feng, who had just learned for two years, could compare to.A cotton coat fell from a carriage. She put one arm around the horse's neck as she rode on the horse, leaving the rest of her body off the horse's back. She grabbed the cotton coat, threw it back into the carriage, and then turned over and rode on the horse.

On the way, the war horse kept running.

This wonderful riding skill has won everyone's admiration, even Leng Feng couldn't help applauding. Although he has been riding a horse for two years, he can only leave the stirrup with one foot at most, and dare not wrap his arm around the horse's neck to juggle.

Seeing that Leng Feng was also applauding, Ashina nodded in satisfaction.
