Chapter 51 Clever but Misunderstood by Clever
Chen Ying's dispatch of troops, because the food, fodder and armor allotted were all purchased from other places, and the Chang'an treasury was not used, the purpose was actually to deceive people's eyes and ears.

From Li Shentong in Mingzhou, Sun Jingchu shipped the soldiers who had not yet been disbanded and directly transported them. At the same time, he loaded the grain and grass in Liyang.In this way, the treasury of Chang'an completed the transfer of materials without using a grain of grain or a stone of forage.

However, the surrendered soldiers from Hebei didn't even have armor, not even a weapon, and all of them were unarmed. These supplies need to be replenished after arriving in Lingzhou.

As for how the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Households will settle accounts with Li Daozhen, this is something that Chen Ying is not concerned about. In Chen Ying's view, Li Yuan also has no shame in taking advantage of his niece.

Regardless of personnel or supplies, they all quietly set foot on the fleet going north.And after Chen Ying joined Luo Shixin and Zhang Shigui, he arranged for Luo Shixin to be on the left bank and Zhang Shigui on the right bank to guard along the Yellow River.Whether you meet common people or peddlers in business, let them all be caught and imprisoned in Diuge County.

Any information actually has a certain timeliness.For example, now, what Chen Ying needs to buy is time. As long as he arrives in Lingzhou, he will not be afraid of the Turkic people at all. At that time, it is the Turkic people who are most worried about him.

In fact, in ancient times, secret reconnaissance intelligence relied on calculations in most cases.First of all, the consumption of food and fodder, the sixteen guards stationed near Chang'an, all have their own rules, and the daily expenditure will not decrease or increase.You only need to leave a few eyeliners in front of each warehouse, and you can definitely find signs of the Tang Dynasty's army mobilization.Of course, the mobilization of thousands of soldiers and horses is still invisible, but the mobilization of more than [-] troops, even if it is only for a month, is as many as tens of thousands of shi.According to this era, an ordinary cart can only transport a dozen stones, and at least hundreds of thousands of carts are needed. Such a transportation volume, there is no way to hide it from the eyes and ears of those who are interested.

If you want to ask whether the Turkic people have worked carefully in Chang'an, this is actually something that is obvious to the bald man.However, due to the tense relationship between the Turks and the Tang Dynasty, the Turks in Chang'an City were closely monitored. However, there were still loopholes.Because of the open social atmosphere in the Tang Dynasty, especially after the Tang Dynasty occupied Liangzhou, the Silk Road was temporarily opened, and there were many merchants of various ethnic groups in the Western Regions in Chang'an City.

Although these people were not Turks, they spied on the military secrets of the Tang Dynasty for their own benefit.There is a unique organization in the Eastern Turkic Khanate, named "Hayame", which is actually a spy organization.The leader is named Yehu Khan Ashina Sunish, who is the same mother and brother of Qimin Khan and the great-uncle of Ashina Dubi.

Ashina Sunis is proficient in Chinese, if one does not consider his blond beard and blue eyes and deep eyes, it is impossible to imagine that he is a Turkic person based on his authentic Chinese.However, in the eyes of Tang Dynasty people, the difference between Turkic people and Lite people is only their hair, so Ashina Sunis dyed his hair and beard black, and ran a horse shop in Chang'an under the name of Lite businessman Huobashibi .

In fact, this information point has already been detected by the spy of the left prison gate.The exposure of this information point is mainly because when Chen Ying defeated Ashina Yiwuzhenmo last time, Shibi Khan Dojishi and Yehu Khan Mohe came to question Li Yuan, and Mohe suddenly changed his words , and quickly left Chang'an, the news came from Ashina Suni's lost horse shop.However, since there was no interrogation, even Li Yuan didn't know that the Turkic people still had a Yehu Khan in Chang'an City, not an ordinary spy.

When Li Yuan and Chen Ying carried out the plan of deceiving the world, they began to pass false news to Ashina Suni.This falsehood is half true and half false. Datang sent the East Palace Left and Right Guards and Left and Right Siyu to secretly transfer to Hedong to prevent the Turks from invading Taiyuan.The news that the left and right guards and the left and right siyu rates of the East Palace were transferred to the palace with a [-]-fold discount of [-]% and a total of more than [-] elite troops secretly went northward, which is naturally true.It is also true to declare that Li Shiji will be the marshal to lead the army to the north.The false news is that the actual commander of this army is not Li Shiji, but Chen Ying.

Ashina Sunis is a smart man, he will definitely not believe this news just because of the bribed military officer, he needs to judge.When the news that the Four Guards left Chang'an with an army of more than [-] was confirmed by him repeatedly, it was certain that it was true, and the grain and fodder allocated from the treasury also verified the news.

However, Ashina Suni was very concerned about whether Chen Ying was the commander-in-chief of this army.If it's just Li Shiji, the Turkic people have nothing to worry about, but if it's really Chen Ying, that's another matter.At this time, Chen Ying has become the psychological shadow of most Turkic people.

The Turkic people worship the shaman god, and every time they pray, they will silently recite the original Chen Yingmoqi swordsman in their hearts.To put it simply, pray once a year, don't beat me, don't beat me...

It's ridiculous to say that the reason for this situation is that Chen Ying beat the Turks too hard. The four major Yehu Khans of the Eastern Turks, the Twelve Set Khans, who have suffered under Chen Ying's hands, are enough. Not to mention that there are more than 2 Turkic people working as free laborers under Chen Ying's hands, and there are more than [-] heads, which are still piled up in Wild Boar Ridge outside Lingzhou City.

If it is said that the Tang Dynasty did not send Chen Ying to fight, Li Shiji and Zhang Shiji didn't matter at all, one would kill the other, and one pair would destroy the other.The Turks are so domineering, but even if Chen Ying leads an army of 30 to the north, and the Turks have an army of [-], I am afraid that half of them will be scared to pee.

This situation made Ashina Suni very helpless, but now East Turkic is also riding a tiger. If he fails to gain power this time, Ashina Dubi will become the biggest joke among all Turkic khans.

Now Ashina Suni was sitting in the yard, holding a knife in his hand, cutting the flesh of a whole roast lamb, and kneeling below him was a man with the appearance of a sallow-faced and emaciated commoner who was trembling.

Ashina Sunis asked while sucking the oil on her fingers: "Have you eaten?"

The common people trembled and didn't speak, but a vicious guard stepped forward and kicked, shouting loudly: "If you don't answer, are you courting death?"

"Eat...no...didn't eat..." The commoner was about to cry, and stammered: "Eat...still didn't eat!"

Ashina Suni picked up a piece of roasted lamb with a dagger, handed it to the common people, and said, "Do you want to eat it?"

"I want... want to eat...!" The commoner swallowed with difficulty.

Ashina Suni blinked with disdain, and said lightly: "Whatever I ask, you just need to answer truthfully, answer a question, a piece of meat, if you answer all, this leg of lamb, or not this sheep is yours of!"

The common people said: "Excuse me, my lord, Xiaodi will know everything!"

Ashina Suni lost his way: "What's your name?"

The common people said respectfully: "Xiao Di Huang San!"

Ashina Suni used a dagger to cut off a small piece of meat and threw it in front of Huang San. Huang San didn't care that the piece of mutton was stained with mud. Put it in your mouth in one bite.

Ashina Sunis asked again: "What do you do?"

Huang San stretched his neck, looked at the roasted whole lamb, and showed longing eyes: "The little Qujiang Fang collects Ye Xiang!"

Ashina Suni gave Huang San another piece of mutton as promised, and then asked, "What did you eat yesterday?"

Huang San ate another piece of mutton, and said without hesitation: "Noodle...noodle cake..."

Ashina Suni lost his way: "How much did you eat?"

Huang San said with difficulty: "One...one...! And...a bowl of soup..."

Ashina Suni asked in confusion, "Broth?"

Huang Sandao: "It's vegetables... vegetable soup... dried wild vegetables..."

Ashina Suni lost his mind and said, "You only eat one pancake for a meal? Is your meal small enough? Why are you so thin?"

Huang Sandao: "No...not one meal...it's just one meal a day...one meal a day..."

Ashina Suni lost his way: "I eat one meal a day, and there is only one pancake in a meal?"

Don't look at Ashina Suniso being so unorganized, he asked Huang San as usual, and Huang San gradually let go of his vigilance.While eating the mutton, Huang San nodded and said, "Yes... yes..."

Ashina Sunis asked again: "Have you met General Chen?"

Huang San shook his head and said, "I've seen it."

Ashina Suni lost interest and said, "How could you see General Chen?"

Huang San shook his head and said: "Don't you know that? General Chen likes to get up in the morning and run around the flower garden. When I get up in the morning to collect night incense, I often see General Chen. Once I was pulling a cart, The climb almost slipped, and General Chen helped me push the car!"

Ashina Suni frowned and said: "If you're lying, you don't even ask. Who is General Chen? How could he push the cart for you? You must have never met General Chen."

Huang San bumped into Tian Qu, swearing that he had just met General Chen a few days ago.Just yesterday I saw General Chen running in the garden.

Ashina Suni nodded and waved his hand: "Take it down and give him some meat!"

The left and right guards took Huang San down.

Ashina Suni fell down and sat on the ground, speechless for a long time.He suddenly inserted the knife in his hand into the mutton, stared at the man who looked like an accountant and asked, "What do you think?"

The accountant-looking man bowed and said, "Ye Hu Khan, it seems that Chen Ying's son must still be in Chang'an. The so-called news that Chen Ying led the elite Tang army northward to Taiyuan must be false!"

Ashina Suni shook his head resolutely and said, "No, Chen Ying is no longer in Chang'an."

The accountant asked in confusion: "Ye Hu Khan, how is this possible? Didn't Huang San say that Chen Ying is still exercising?"

Ashina Suni shook his head lightly, put the knife on the case lightly, and said lightly: "There is a famous saying in Huaxia called, the false is the real, the real is the false, Chen Ying looked at it in Chang'an, I'm afraid it's not Chen Ying who is in Chang'an anymore, if the predictions are correct, Chen Ying has already followed the Tang army all the way north by now, and might soon reach Jiexiu."

Speaking of this, Ashina Suni shouted coldly: "Come on, send a secret letter to Khan and tell him that Chen Ying has gone north!"

Ashina Sunis was also clever but was mistaken by his cleverness. He didn't know that Chen Ying never went to Taiyuan at all, and Li Shiji, who the Turks were least optimistic about, was actually a ruthless character, no better than Chen Ying deal with.

When the Turks saw how powerful Li Shiji was, they realized that if Chen Ying was described as a tiger, then Li Shiji was a poisonous snake.

But this is just an afterthought, so I won't mention it for the time being.

As the saying goes, you are not afraid of opponents who are like gods, but teammates who are like pigs.

Ashina Suni lost his wit and sent a wrong message to Jieli Khan, which caused the Turks to suffer a crushing defeat in Li Tang's diplomatic struggle.

Chen Ying took a boat all the way up against the current and headed towards Lingzhou at a speed of [-] miles a day.
