The third emperor of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 337 The Fierce Colonel of the Western Regions

The Royal Palace of Gaochang City is not as majestic as Daxing Palace in Chang’an, not as majestic as Ziwei Palace in Luoyang, not as majestic as Shenwu Palace in Yecheng, not as majestic as Linshuo Palace in Zhuojun, Jinyang Palace in Taiyuan, or even Linyu Palace in Beiping County... …but it’s more than resplendent, with stunning interiors.

At this time, Gaochang King Qu Boya was hosting a banquet for Ashina Mingjing, the general of the Western Turkic garrison. Compared with the already torn Sui Dynasty, he paid more attention to the increasingly powerful Western Turks on the grassland.

"Report to Your Majesty, a group of women bearing the banner of the Great Sui Dynasty came from outside the city, claiming to be the captains of the Western Regions, and asked your Majesty to go and meet them." At this time, a guard hurriedly came to report from outside the palace.

During Yang Guang's administration, in order to receive envoys from the Western Regions, a "Xiyu Xiaowei" was specially set up, and his title was the same as that of the Western Regions Protector in the Han Dynasty.

"Captain of the Western Regions?" Qu Boya's complexion changed.

When he succeeded to the throne, the Western Turks made him attach himself to the Turkic customs. In order to get rid of the control of the Turks, he sent envoys to make friends with the Central Plains.When Yang Guang was on a tour to the west, he took the lead in organizing the kings of 27 countries in the Western Regions to wear jade and brocade, burn incense and play music, and kneel on the side of the road to welcome them.Going back to Gaochang's routine reforms, everything follows the Sui Dynasty system, but any reforms will hurt the interests of those with vested interests, thus triggering domestic rebellions.In addition, while Gaochang Kingdom paid tribute to the Great Sui Dynasty, it also paid tribute to the Western Turks.As a result, the taxation of the people was increasing day by day, which finally led to a riot in 614, and Qu Boya was expelled.

When he was in exile in the Western Turks, he met Tong Yehu, who was still holding an important position under the command of Shekui Khan. The two of them were inseparable and said many times that they would be king in the future and they must work together to conquer the Western Regions.Tong Yehu ascended the throne of the Great Khan of the Western Turks as he wished, and helped Qu Boya ascend the throne again.After the restoration, Qu Boya reciprocated and became a staunch supporter of Western Turks.

With a big background, Qu Boya carried out drastic reforms in the country, and in just a few years, he developed Gaochang into a powerful country in the Western Regions, second only to the Western Turks, which made the countries in the Western Regions fear it.

As for the Great Sui Dynasty that once helped him get rid of the Western Turkic Sheku Khan's exploitation, he had long since left it behind, but he never dreamed that the Sui Dynasty that had disappeared suddenly reappeared, and even sent a captain from the Western Regions?
Didn't the Sui Dynasty fall apart?Aren't Zhangye, Dunhuang, Yiwu and other counties on the Silk Road in the hands of Xiliang King Li Gui?
Li Gui, who treated himself to hot pot last month, is done?So fast?

Qu Boya said in a deep voice, "How many people did he bring?"

"There are about 100 people, most of them are women." The guard said in a deep voice.

"Woman?" Qu Boya heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words. Although he is now on good terms with the Western Turks, even if the Sui Dynasty has been strong for more than ten years, it still has a strong deterrent force in the countries of the Western Regions. After all, a strong The Great Turkic Khanate was killed by the Sui Dynasty, and the mighty Tuyuhun was almost defeated by the Yi people, and everyone was afraid of its ruthlessness.

But at this moment, Qu Boya heard that the captain of the Western Regions was a woman, so he felt a little relieved, turned his head to look at Ashina Mingjing beside him and said, "General Mingjing, look..."

"It's okay, I've heard that women from the Han family have tastes. Today, so many people come to the door by themselves, let them come in, and give me a good time to play."

Ashina Mingjing laughed heartily, and the surrounding Turkic generals also laughed wantonly when they heard the words.

"Hurry up and invite me." Qu Boya smiled wryly. Western Turkic was determined to establish a unified Western Turkic Khanate, and his Gaochang was included in it. There were only a few hundred troops stationed in other Western Region countries. The garrison of [-] troops is a sign of uneasiness.At this moment, even if he, Qu Boya, had the intention to prevent the girl from the Sui Dynasty from getting into the tiger's mouth, he wouldn't dare, let alone he didn't have the intention.

Soon, more than 200 Gaochang soldiers appeared outside Gaochang City, and welcomed Du Ruhui and his party in.

"General, it looks a little bit wrong." A heroic woman said vigilantly: "Many people don't look like the guards of Gaochang."

In order to adapt to the situation and to make the Gaochang people look down on them, they decided to assign Yin Mingyue, who is highly skilled in martial arts, as the captain of the Western Regions, and Du Ruhui as his deputy.

"It's a Turkic." Du Ruhui glanced at the Turkic people who were staring at the palace, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, "We didn't check the situation in the city beforehand. If the Turkic generals are also in the palace, it will be a bit difficult for us to seize power."

"What are you afraid of?" Yin Mingyue coldly held the silver spear in her hand: "It's already here, let these Turkic people know how powerful I am, Tai Sui, and put their crossbows to the bow, and play by ear!"

One hundred female soldiers are armed with two crossbows. As long as the terrain is suitable, they will not be afraid of more Turkic people.

"This female general, you must hand over your weapons when entering the palace, and you can't all go in." A guard stopped Yin Mingyue in front of the palace gate.

"Crack~"

Yin Mingyue slapped her backhand, turning the person around in a circle, Du Ruhui's teeth were gritted, and it hurt to look at it.

Yin Mingyue opened her phoenix eyes and snorted coldly: "I am the captain of the Western Regions, the king of Gaochang. If you see me, you must pay homage to me. Get lost!"

In an instant, a hundred female soldiers simultaneously raised the crossbows in their left hands, aiming the icy arrows at the Gaochang soldiers who were blocking the way. Seeing the murderous intent in Yin Mingyue's eyes, these guards panicked for a moment, and could only watch helplessly as she led the way. People and horses broke into the palace mightily.

In the palace, Qu Boya looked at Yin Mingyue with an ugly expression on his face.

"General Sui, what do you intend to do?"

"I am the captain of the Western Regions of the Great Sui Dynasty. Why didn't King Gaochang pay homage?" Yin Mingyue stared at Qu Boya with sharp phoenix eyes without flinching.

Even Du Ruhui was stunned by the fierce aura and firm attitude.

As a native of Wuwei, Yin Mingyue has half Qiang blood. When her father, Yin Shishi, was the prefect of Zhangye, he was busy with affairs and fought outside all year round.In this way, Yin Mingyue was left to herd the sheep. Since she was a child, she gathered a group of maids in the mansion to practice all day long.

The family loved her and let her mess around, but after a period of practice, Yin Mingyue began to be dissatisfied with the practice, and took out his father's way of motivating the soldiers to fight, and asked Zhangye County soldiers to practice with him.

Although everyone thinks that she is messing around, she is a tiger girl after all, and the female soldiers trained are not weak at all. At first, there were soldiers who wanted to take advantage of it, but then, the group of maids who were trained by Yin Mingyue were divided into two groups. Teach them to be human in minutes.

After she developed her courage, she took the maid at home to hunt down horse thieves, and she was recruited by Yin Shishi to become a captain in the army. In terms of martial arts, she was dozens of times stronger than her elder brothers. If Wei Xuan hadn't felt pity for her, and drove her, Yin Hongzhi and Gu Yan out of the Chang'an Xiaoguo army, they would have died at the gate of Chang'an a long time ago.

When I arrived in Yecheng, I fought a few battles with Shui Tianji first, and then became the apprentice of Hongfu girl in a daze. From time to time, I took the female sword attendant into the Taihang Mountain behind Yecheng to suppress bandits, so her evil spirit is really not just pretending. Even Gaochang King Qu Boya was also frightened.

Qu Boya was stunned for a long time, and was about to answer in words, but Ashina Mingjing beside him burst out laughing.

"Hahaha! Alright, I didn't expect the women of the Han family to have such a powerful character, I like it very much!" Ashina Mingjing's greedy eyes scanned Yin Mingyue's tall and beautiful body, and nodded lewdly: "From now on, You are my woman."

Ashina Mingjing declared his sovereignty loudly, which made the Turkic generals next to him extremely regretful and regretful.

"Who are you?" Yin Mingyue narrowed her eyes slightly and asked coldly.

"Me?" Ashina Mingjing laughed and said, "I, Ashina Mingjing, am the noblest Turkic royal family and the supreme commander stationed in Gaochang. You..."

"puff!"

Before she finished speaking, the silver spear in Yin Mingyue's hand pierced through the air, piercing through the chest of Ashina Mingjing in the astonished eyes of everyone.

The hundred female soldiers she led had already raised their crossbows the moment she made a move, and shot at the Turkic people in the palace. Hundreds of Turkic generals fell into a pool of blood in an instant.

"You..." Qu Boya stared at Yin Mingyue dumbfounded.

"Believe it or not, I'll blow your head off." Yin Mingyue's two icy eyes fixed on Qu Boya's face like lightning, and pointed at the latter's head with a continuous crossbow in each hand.

When Qu Boya saw the other party's gaze, he immediately sat down on the chair and was speechless for a long time.

"The general of the western Turkic garrison is dead. You have two ways to go. One, block the news in the palace and let your people cooperate with our generals of the Sui Dynasty to kill all the Turkic people." Yin Mingyue's eyes were cold and straight Looking at Qu Boya, he seemed to turn his gaze into two swords, piercing into the latter's heart, and said solemnly, "Second, the Qu clan was buried with the Turkic people."

The surprise change that was caught off guard, from Yin Mingyue's sudden attack to the female soldiers shooting and killing more than a hundred Turkic generals, took only a few breaths of time, and the outsiders didn't know what happened in the palace.Yin Mingyue had to defeat the Turkic people in the palace one by one before the outsiders reacted. On the way to the palace, she had noticed a lot of Turkic people wandering around in the palace. Although they were not concentrated, they had to be cleared away.

Qu Boya's complexion was as pale as paper, and with his friendship with Tong Yehu Khan, Western Turk would not pursue it. The problem is that if he doesn't agree, this damn beautiful female evil star will really kill him.

"Qu Yan, bring our people, cooperate with Sha, uh, cooperate with Captain Da Sui, and destroy the Turkic people in the palace." Qu Boya, with the idea of ​​"dead friends will not die poor people", quickly issued an order to the guard commander ordered.

"We have an old saying in the Sui Dynasty that 'the one who knows the current affairs is a brilliant man'. I hope King Gaochang will not be stupid!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Qu Boya broke into a cold sweat.

Yin Mingyue withdrew her weapon: "Cai Wei, you and Mr. Du stay here, if King Gaochang is disobedient, kill him. The others follow me!"

"Here!" Cai Wei, an indifferent and not weak Yin Mingyue female general.

Du Ruhui nodded silently, not only Qu Boya was stunned by Yin Mingyue's actions, even Du Ruhui couldn't react.

Even the Xiaoguo Army may not be able to match Yin Mingyue's decisiveness and ruthlessness, the tacit cooperation of the female soldiers, and the quick response. Moreover, Yin Mingyue's timing was so precise that Qu Boya never had a chance to react.

When everyone came back to their senses, Anashi Mingjing and a group of subordinates were all dead, and the next threat to Qu Boya became more serious. When he calmed down and thought about countermeasures, the Turkic people in the palace might also die. He was dead, and at this stage, he had no choice but to follow Da Sui all the way to the end.

From what happened in front of him, Du Ruhui thought of what Yang Yu said, "Fang Xuanling is resourceful, Du Ruhui is good at making decisions, Fang is both scheming and making decisions, and the world can be expected." He thought it was reasonable before, but at this moment, he suddenly A little ashamed.Compared with other people's Yinmingyue, 'Du Duan' is nothing but 'Du Duan'.

Thinking of Su Dingfang who was waiting for the news, he smiled bitterly again. The Dingfang County and Dingfang City that Su Dingfang was looking forward to were probably going to become "Mingyue County" and "Mingyue City".

"General Cai, how is your martial arts?" Du Ruhui quietly approached Cai Wei and asked in a low voice.

"It's okay." Cai Wei looked at Du Ruhui puzzled.

"You keep an eye on King Gaochang, and control him immediately if he makes any changes. Before the overall situation is settled, don't let him out of sight." Du Ruhui said quietly.

Cai Wei nodded silently. Seeing Qu Boya stand up, she took a few steps forward calmly. The distance was so good that no matter how Qu Boya moved or how fast she moved, Cai Wei would be able to catch him in the first place. Shoot him into a hornet's nest.

"Cai...General Cai, what do you mean?" Qu Boya's face turned pale.

"My arrows are poisonous and there is no solution. If you don't believe me, you can try it." Cai Wei said lightly.

"This……"

Qu Boya's face turned paler with fright, as if the hunter had locked on him.

"kill!"

At this time, tragic killing sounds and screams suddenly sounded from outside.

Qu Boya sat back on the throne with a pale face and dull eyes!
The killing of the female devil has begun...

Gao Changguo boarded the pirate ship of the Sui Dynasty and couldn't get off!
