The third emperor of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 175 Xieli ascends the throne (recommended for collection)

On the Yudujin Mountain, there was already a military camp, with military tents everywhere, and troops everywhere.

"Da da da da!"

Teams of Turkic troops rode on horses, with sabers on their waists, and strong bows and arrows on their backs, and drove to the place where Jieli ascended the throne.

Today is not only the auspicious day for Jieli's ascension to the throne, but also the birthday of Yili Khan Ashina Tumen, the founder of the Turkic Khanate. On such a day, in addition to the presence of all the chiefs of the grassland, 30 troops were gathered, and even Li Tang in the south Li Gui of Heliang State sent important ministers to participate in Xieli's ascension ceremony.What made Jieli Khan unhappy and dissatisfied was that the Sui Dynasty not only did not send an envoy to attend, but also cut off both ears of his envoy Kang Sumi, and the message he brought back was only six words: "If you want to fight, then fight". This almost made Jieli's lungs explode.But no matter how he wants to retaliate, he can't discuss it until after the three-day enthronement celebration.

Today, we first worshiped the Khans of the past dynasties, and then took over the sword of Ashina Tumen from Jieli Khan from the high priest, and officially became the new Turkic Khan.

Three days later, he will issue the military order to attack the Sui Dynasty in the south in front of Yili Khan's tomb.This is already a certainty, otherwise, such a large army would not have been gathered.

Yanran Peak is the highest peak in Yudujin Mountain, where the great khans of all dynasties are buried here.

This mountain has a radius of tens of miles, and each hill has a tomb.In each tomb lies a khan, ranging from Yili Khan who founded the country, to Qimin Khan, headless Shibi Khan, and Chuluo Khan.

The largest tomb at the highest peak is the burial place of Ili Khan.Yili Khan is the greatest leader in Turkic history. During his reign, he wiped out the powerful tribe in the north, Rouran, who was the master of the Turks. The Turkic territory expanded to the Liaohai Sea in the east, the West Sea in the west, the desert in the south, and the Beihai Sea in the north.He also sent troops to attack Tuyuhun, and was deeply loved by the Turkic people of all dynasties.

After Yili Khan died, his son Yixiji Khan Ashina Koro succeeded to the throne and buried Yili Khan on the main peak.In fact, on this main peak, it was originally the burial place of an elder of the Ashina family, but Yixiji Khan felt that his achievements were not enough to occupy the highest peak, so he moved to the best place. He gave it to his father Khan.As for Jieli, he also hopes that his son will let Yili Khan move and bury himself in this place, but he also knows that he must make meritorious deeds to cover his ancestors before the whole family will agree. However, he has great confidence in himself , I feel that the Turkic Khanate will flourish in my own hands, and I also have the ability to crown my ancestors.

The Turkic people also have similarities with the Central Plains. For example, respecting their ancestors is the same. They attach great importance to the tombs of their ancestors. Otherwise, it is disrespect to the ancestors.

As the greatest leader of the Turks, Yili Khan has the largest and most magnificent tomb, which is full of momentum.

Yanran Peak starts from the foot of the mountain, and it is a stone step that is seven or eight miles long, extending upwards until it reaches the grave of Ili Khan. On both sides of the mountain road, there are stone piles made of white stones, on which not only white flags are inserted The flag is also covered with skulls of various animals.

This kind of ancestral land, except for important ceremonies or visits by important people, ordinary people are forbidden to enter, and those who trespass will be killed without mercy.

At this time, on the stone steps, the energetic Jieli Khan led his ministers and distinguished guests up the steps.Their steps are in harmony with the rhythm, not rushing or slowing down, which is the unique pace of Turkic people when they worship their ancestors.

After walking the jade steps, you will arrive at an open space paved with jade from Kunshan, which is about Lixu wide.The pure white Kunshan jade emits a soft light.

Yili Khan's tombstone is made of a piece of beautiful jade. On the top of the monument is a golden wolf made of gold, which is full of unruly aura looking down on the world. Some Turkic symbols and patterns are engraved on the monument.

After the worship, the high priest recited ancient texts and handed Yili Khan's sword to Jieli Khan who was kneeling before him.

Jieli Khan's heart was burning hot. He finally ascended to the coveted position of Great Khan. What is hateful is that another symbol of power - the golden wolf head banner fell into the hands of Yang Tong. This is definitely his great regret. .

Then, the Xiongnu wizards in leopard skins performed a sacrificial dance. Their dancing movements were not many, and they did various wild animal fighting movements.This kind of animal dance is simple and straightforward, and one can understand what they are doing at a glance.After a while, it's done.

This ceremony seems very simple, but for the Turks, it is a new opening, but I don't know if this generation of khans will bring everyone to glory or something, and everyone is full of expectations for it.

Jieli Khan stood up, turned around, and stared at the Turkic army at the foot of the mountain.At this time, at the foot of the mountain, there was already a sea of ​​soldiers. More than [-] Turkic troops were assembled and formed into squares one after another. Looking at it from the mountain, it was really magnificent.

Jieli Khan's breath became short of breath, his eyes were wild, and he tried his best to suppress his excitement.

"Turkic warriors: We are the descendants of the wolf god! Cowardly Han Chinese are only worthy to be slaves of my Turkic warriors! No matter what happened before, we must not shame our great ancestors and regain the lost glory , What face do we have to survive on the grasslands. I, Ashina, the Great Khan of the Turks, order you to go south to the Central Plains and conquer Chang'an in three days' time!"

Jieli Khan knows very well that the Turks are different from the past. Although the Turks are once again unified, they are actually caught in internal and external troubles. There are always people who disagree with him. All the big forces have a peeping heart on Khan.Therefore, he had to marry the daughter of Chief Xueyantuo, the first force in Tie Le, and conferred the title of Ketun, and brought in foreign aid to consolidate his Khan position. In the current state of Turks, a mere marriage cannot hold back this cunning and ambitious old wolf.

In addition, Tiele Huihe, Qibi, and Hun tribes felt that Yi Shibo had betrayed Tiele, and there were signs of forming an alliance against themselves and Yi Shibo. With the support of Luolu and Baximi, I am afraid that they have already attacked their 'father-in-law'.

In order to suppress the voices of internal discord, and to stop Tiele's ministries from clinging to each other, Jieli had to use a brilliant victory to establish his supreme prestige. Jieli Khan turned his eyes from the army to the far south, Wherever the Turks fell, they had to pick up from there.

"Go south to the Central Plains and conquer Chang'an!"

"Go south to the Central Plains and conquer Chang'an!"

With every cry, the earth trembled, and Fengyun was overshadowed.

Hearing the cries of "Go south to the Central Plains and conquer Chang'an", Li Xiaoji, Li Tang's envoy in the crowd, turned pale. Who is your Turkic ally?
