Man Tanghong

Chapter 104 Turkic Inheritance
A new round of Turkic attacks, from day to night, did not stop.

The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty on the city wall have been guarding the city wall to fight against the Turkic people without any pause in the middle.

The 200,000 Turkic army took turns to go into battle, hardly giving the Tang soldiers time to rest.

At the beginning, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty fought against the Turkic people with physical strength, but in the end they relied entirely on their will to support them.

Xie Shufang, Li Zhongwen, and their trilogy ran around the city wall almost the whole time.

Uncle Xie's tired legs were trembling, and Li Zhongwen's tired walking was unsteady.

Xie Shufang is young and vigorous, barely able to support himself.

Li Zhongwen is old and falls from time to time.

Sometimes when I fell down, I would lie on the ground gasping for breath, and when I heard a soldier exclaim, I would struggle to get up and rush over.

Li Yuanji watched the whole process, unable to do anything.

He only needs to walk a little towards the crenel, and the soldiers guarding the crenel will force him back with pleading eyes.

"Pfft..."

When Li Zhongwen passed by Li Yuanji, he was completely carried away.

Under Li Yuanji's gaze, he climbed up awkwardly, but every time he climbed halfway, he would fall down again.

The surrounding tribes went to support him, but they didn't have much strength, so they could only kneel on the ground and use their bodies to push Li Zhongwen up.

Li Yuanji couldn't stand it anymore, and wanted to go up to help him.

Li Zhongwen looked at him with pleading eyes.

Li Zhongwen didn't want him to support him, nor did he want to be looked down upon by him.

Ever since Li Yuanji reprimanded and whipped him for making a mistake in dispatching scouts, Li Zhongwen has been holding his breath in his heart, and he wants to prove himself.

Prove that you are a general who can fight well and that you are an official.

However, after wearing heavy armor and running around the city wall for a day, not only him, but also his steps were exhausted long ago.

His limbs barely supported him, and fell to the ground together not long after.

"Hey……"

Li Yuanji heaved a long sigh in his heart.

A man, he has a good face and a good dignity.

For the sake of face and dignity, he even risked his life.

Li Yuanji stepped forward to help Li Zhongwen, Li Zhongwen's eyes turned red all of a sudden.

"You've done a good job..."

Li Yuanji comforted him.

Li Zhongwen's eyes became even redder. While struggling to break free from Li Yuanji's support, he gritted his teeth and said, "I can still do it..."

Li Yuanji let out a foul breath with a 'huh'.

"Deploy a team of people to cut wood in Guannei, find the kind of bucket that is thick and thin, sharpen one end, nail an upside-down nail on it, and then drive a bow nail."

Li Zhongwen looked at Li Yuanji in confusion, not understanding what Li Yuanji was going to do.

Li Yuanji didn't explain much, "You just do it."

Li Zhongwen opened his mouth, wanting to say something else.

Li Yuanji reached out and patted Li Zhongwen's shoulder, and said seriously: "Be obedient..."

There was no threat in Li Yuanji's words, but Li Zhongwen didn't dare to say anything to refute.

Li Yuanji helped Li Zhongwen to the inner side of the city wall, helped Li Zhongwen remove part of his armor, and Li Zhongwen could barely stand still.

Li Zhongwen immediately helped the two minions remove their armor, and asked them to quickly follow Li Yuanji's orders.

……

at the same time.

Inside the largest tooth tent outside the pass.

The immature Tuli Khan was arguing with Liang Shidu.

Jieli Khan, who is tall and strong with a curly beard, is sitting firmly on the throne in the middle of the dental tent, squinting at Tuli and Liang Shidu.

"Master Liang, do you have collusion with Li Tang?"

Tu Li stared aggressively, staring aggressively at Master Liang and questioning him.

During the daytime, a strong man in the Tang army held a crossbow on the wall of Weizeguan and shot down the small leaders of various tribes. His sharpshooter and Uncle Jieli's sharpshooter found each other, and just about to fight back, they shot at each other. Kill the strongman in the Tang army.

The sharpshooter under Liang Shidu shot the arrow first, not only did not kill the opponent, but disturbed the opponent so that the opponent never showed up again.

He and his uncle arranged to lure each other to the bait, but the other party didn't take the bait either.

This made him very angry.

If Master Liang hadn't disrupted the situation, he might have already taken down the strong man in the Tang army.

Although the life and death of a strongman can't affect the outcome of a battle, he and his uncle have worked so hard to make arrangements without gaining anything, which makes him very upset.

So when his uncle invited him and Master Liang to discuss matters in the tooth tent, he challenged Master Liang without hesitation.

Master Liang is a middle-aged man with a goatee, a thin face, wearing a black robe, kneeling and sitting opposite Tuli, facing Tuli's questioning, he said with a bitter face: "I have always been loyal to Turkic. Geng Geng, how could there be any collusion with Li Tang? I can't wait to help the Turks break Weize Pass right now, so that the Turks can drive straight south and take the heads of Li and his son."

Tu Li shouted: "Then why did you send archers to prevent my subordinates from shooting the strong men in the Tang army?"

Liang Shidu's face became even more bitter, "Khan sent a sharpshooter to deal with the strong man in the Tang army, but he didn't send anyone to tell me that the strong man in the Tang army was really arrogant, so I sent someone to deal with him.

It's just that the archers under the minister's command are really inferior to the sharpshooters under Khan's tent, so that's why the strong man in the Tang army escaped. "

Speaking of this, Liang Shidu looked at Jieli with a pleading face.

Liang Shidu really didn't know about it, otherwise, how dare he spoil Tuli's affairs.

After seeing Liang Shidu's pleading eyes, Xieli was very satisfied, and he liked to see Liang Shidu begging him.

As long as Liang Shidu kept begging him, he would always be in his hands.

Jieli looked at Tuli pretending to be displeased, "Shibobi, Master Liang is also my Turkic Khan, so don't be rude."

Shibobi is Tuli's name.

Tuli was born in the Turkic ruling family Ashina, so his full name is Ashina Shibobi, and Tuli is just his Khan title.

Jieli's name is not Jieli, but Duobi, and his full name is Ashina Duobi.

Ashina means 'noble wolf' in Turkic, and also means 'blue'.

'Blue' does not represent blue, but refers to the highest Turkic god 'Tengri', which symbolizes the supreme sovereignty over Turkic.

When Tuli heard Xieli's words, the corners of his mouth curled up in disdain.

Master Liang is considered a Turkic Khan. Although he has the name of Dadu Vija Khan, he can't control a Turkic person, it's just a name.

Master Liang saw Tuli's disdain, and felt a little unhappy, but he didn't say anything, and even pretended not to see it.

Jieli saw Tuli's disdain, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he said cheerfully: "There is a saying in the south that it is not an exaggeration to say that those who don't know are not exaggerated. Master Liang doesn't even know that you sent a sharpshooter to deal with Tang Jun. The strongman in the middle, so he sent someone to take action, it is not an offense to you.

Don't blame him anymore. "

Although Tuli looked down on Liang Shidu, Jieli still had to give him face.

After all, Xieli was also his uncle, the Great Khan of the Turks, and the co-lord of the Turks. Not only was his seniority higher than him, but his status was also higher than him. He had to give Xieli some face.

Moreover, Xieli is still his stepfather, and his mother is now Xieli Kehe Dun (Khan is the king of the Turks, and Ke He Dun is the queen of the Turks), so he has to give Xieli face.

The Turks not only used the inheritance system in terms of authority, but also used the inheritance system in the "harem".

After the death of the previous Turkic Khan, the latter Turkic Khan can inherit everything from the previous Turkic Khan, including the other's wife.

Jieli's current Kehe Dun is Princess Yicheng of the former Sui Dynasty. She is more than 50 years old and has successively become the Kehe Dun of Qimin Khan, Shibi Khan, Chuluo Khan, and Jieli Khan. .

Among them, Shibi Khan, Chuluo Khan, and Jieli Khan are all sons of Qimin Khan.

Tuli had to give Jieli face, but it was impossible to bow his head to Liang Shidu, so he snorted, glared at Liang Shidu, and said nothing.

Jieli didn't care about this matter, and Master Liang didn't have the guts to care about it, so this matter has been exposed for the time being.

"It has been a day since Liu Heita sent us the sound of arrows. With the strength of Liu Heita's troops, it will not be able to stop Li Tang's attack for too long.

If we can't take Weize Pass again, Liu Heita will probably be wiped out by Li Tang's troops.

When we go south again, we can only plunder food and slaves. "

Jieli put away his smiling face, looked at Tuli and Liang Shi and said.

When Tuli heard Xieli's words, he immediately said, "Liu Heita helped us restrain some of Li Tang's troops in Weize Pass, and the defense of Weize Pass has been greatly weakened.

The reason why we haven't taken Weize Pass yet is definitely because we don't have enough troops.

As long as we invest some more troops, we will definitely be able to take Weize Pass. "

Master Liang glanced at Tuli, and said in a deep voice, "The strength displayed by the Tang army in Weize Pass has far exceeded our expectations.

I guess that after Liu Heita's defeat, Li Tang should have sent some more troops to Weize Pass.

If we want to capture Weize Pass, we really need to add some troops. "

Jie Li frowned and said, "In the letter sent by Liu Heita, it was mentioned that it was Li Shimin, King of Qin from Li Tang, who sent Li Yuanji, King of Qi from Li Tang, to lead an army to help Weize Pass.

It's just that Li Yuanji is not a strong general, and the soldiers under his command are not strong enough.

Why is the strength displayed by the Tang army in Weize pass quite strong.

Could it be that besides sending Li Yuanji to help Weize Pass, Li Tang also sent other people? "

Since Li Yuanji, Li Tang's king of Qi, was defeated by Liu Wuzhou, the reputation of waste spread throughout Li Tang.

Therefore, Xieli believes that even if Li Shimin sent Li Yuanji to lead an army to help Weizeguan, he would not be able to do much.

But the resistance shown in Weize Pass far exceeded their expectations, so he had to wonder if Li Shimin had sent other people to help Weize Pass.
