The Sims: The Emperor Raising Project

Chapter 44 The Great Khan

Ashnabilu's body returned with the retreating troops.

in the king's tent.

Sitting on the throne is a figure like a lion, that is the great Turkic Khan Ashina Guli, known as Guli Khan.

Gu Li silently looked at Ashnabilu who seemed to be asleep, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "That idiot Nadaru, he has failed my trust in him."

"He once knelt in front of me and made an oath to the sky. He said he would protect Ashnabilu well. If he violated this oath, he would be killed by the five thunderbolts. Now, he made a mistake. Because of his negligence, I lost my last Excellent son."

All the Turkic ministers sitting next to him lowered their heads and listened quietly to Ashina Guli expressing the anger in his heart. None of the courage.

The wounded lion in front of him, although Gu Li was trying his best to restrain his anger, but anyone who knew him knew that his anger was on the verge of breaking out.

At this time, the two seriously injured guards responsible for protecting Ashnabilu were carried in.

Looking at the blood-soaked and stench-smelling two people, Gu Li suppressed the anger in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "You are all elites carefully selected from the pro-army, but look at what you have done. what."

Gu Li felt that his heart was really panicked, so he breathed a long sigh of relief and continued: "Tell me, what is going on? Why did Ashnabilu die? What on earth does Nadaru eat? "

Gudu, who was lying on the ground with black blood constantly spilling out of his mouth, held on to the last bit of strength, and told Ashina Guli the whole story.

"Little Khan came to the battle for the first time and wanted to try his skills. He didn't expect that there would be an ambush at the head of the city of Hebei. I fled back to the camp in one breath and wanted to plead guilty to the Great Khan and ask the Great Khan to punish me severely."

Another Turkic warrior who was in charge of protecting Ashnabilu forced his body to finish his last sentence, tilted his head and died on the spot.

After the two finished speaking, all the officials looked up at Ashina Guli who was sitting on the throne.

Gu Li narrowed his gloomy eyes and glanced around the faces of everyone, then took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said: "Bi Lu's death was not a crime of war."

"Let Nadaru's son go to the royal court to inherit Nadaru's position." Gu Li said.

When the ministers heard the words, they immediately got up and saluted Gu Li, saying: "The profuse Khan is a holy man, I admire you so much."

Ashina Guli waved his hand indifferently, and said: "Send the bodies of Ashnabilu and Nadaru back to the royal court for a proper burial."

"Yes."

Several personal soldiers responded and carried out the bodies of Ashnabilu and others.

Gu Li watched Ashnabilu's body carried by his entourage completely disappear from his sight, then reluctantly withdrew his gaze, and then talked about the war with the officials, saying: "We met a An unprecedentedly powerful opponent, the magistrate named Zhang Xun is a very tough nut to crack, we have already lost a lot of soldiers here, if it continues, the situation will be very unfavorable to us."

After Gu Li finished speaking, a man who was eight feet tall and had a face like a crown jade stood up and bowed to him, saying: "Khan, Hebei is the gate of the capital. If you can pry open the gate of Hebei, the gate of the capital will be opened wide." , At that time, our Turkic cavalry will be able to drive straight in from Hebei, and take advantage of the momentum of the broken bamboo to go straight to the hinterland of the Central Plains."

"My son thinks that if the great lands and rivers of the Xia Kingdom can be exchanged at a very small price, then this loss can be ignored."

The speaker was named Ashina Yidu, who was 25 years old at the time, and was the eldest son of Ashina Guli.

Ashina Yidu is eight feet tall and has a handsome appearance. He learned Confucian culture from his Han masters since he was a child, and he also learned bow horse riding and archery from a Turkic carving carving master. This person can definitely be called a The all-rounder of Yun Wen Yun Wu.

When Ashina Yidu was only 16 years old, he followed Ashina Guli in the South and North Wars. After years of experience, Ashina Guli already regarded him as the best candidate for the Great Khan.

"A very small price?"

Ashina Guli shook his head helplessly, and said, "How many sacrifices do you have to pay to be considered an extremely small price?"

Ashina Yidu heard the words, almost without hesitation stretched out three fingers to Gu Li, and said: "If we can conquer Hebei at the cost of sacrificing 3 horses, we will be the one that wins in the end."

“How come you see?”

In Gu Li's heart, he was thinking of testing him, and he frowned and said, "Xia Guo has outstanding people and heroes, even if we succeed in taking Hebei, it will be difficult to conquer their capital."

Ashina Yidu came to a huge marching map, picked up a pen and drew a straight line on the only road from Hebei to the capital, and said: "There is a flat river in the north of Xia Kingdom, there is no danger at all, as long as we can successfully break through For the Hebei defense line, at that time, the capital will be the fish on top, and we can make whatever we want."

"Ten thousand steps back, even if we can't conquer the capital, at that time, we can retreat to Hebei and form a confrontation with Xia Guo."

"On the way to withdraw the troops, we can also plunder the youth and women of the Xia Kingdom as much as we want, forcing them to return to Mobei with us, and let them be our slaves for generations."

After Ashinayi finished speaking, the Wang tent immediately remembered the sound of clapping hands and laughing one after another, and everyone gave him a very high evaluation and affirmation of the plan he proposed.

Ashina Guli finally swept away the haze of losing his youngest son, clapped his hands and laughed loudly: "Yidu's words are very kind."

Ashina Guli said, got up and stood up, and said: "I have ordered the army to rest for a day. After tomorrow's dawn, all three armies will go out and attack the city with all their strength."

"Yes."

When everyone heard the words, they all bowed and saluted.

Compared with the confident Turkic people, Zhang Xun, the magistrate of Hebei, was full of thoughts at this moment and fell into deep thought.

Nan Jiyun and Lei Wanchun stood on the left and right sides of him with knives, like two door gods.

Lei Wanchun's wound has been treated briefly, and now his face is covered with a thick layer of gauze, blood still gurgles from the wound from time to time, turning the originally white gauze red.

Seeing that Zhang Xun had frowned and pondered for a long time, Lei Wanchun said softly, "My lord."

"If you have something to say, you can tell me directly, and Nanba and I can help you out with ideas."

"Nanba, it stands to reason that you have made a great contribution, which should be something to be happy about." Zhang Xun said slowly.

Nan Jiyun took a deep look at Zhang Xun, nodded silently, but did not rush to speak.

Zhang Xun turned around to look at Nan Jiyun and Lei Wanchun, heaved a long sigh, and said, "If my guess is correct, the Turkic man who died under your arrow should be a very important person."

"Isn't that nice?"

Lei Wanchun subconsciously blurted out, and after finishing speaking, he frowned and said, "You mean, we are about to usher in crazy revenge from the Turkic people."

"Yes." Zhang Xun nodded.

Nan Jiyun curled his lips indifferently, and said: "My lord, if you have something to say, just speak it out, and don't play tricks on us."
