Reborn in the late Northern Wei Dynasty

Chapter 403 Suspected Soldiers
Some people in later generations misunderstood that Turkic tribes belonged to the white race, which is not true.

It is true that in the middle of the fifth century, when the Ashina family became Rouran wrought iron, the [-] tents in the clan were all white.

However, in more than a hundred years, the Turks have grown from [-] tents to more than [-] tents, relying on continuous integration with the surrounding Chile tribes.

Four years ago, they were able to annex the rest of the Gaoche Chile tribe because they had the same origin in a sense. After all, the main ethnic group of the Turkic tribes is actually the Chile tribe.

And with less people, marriage is naturally the only way, not only the bottom, but also the upper class, and Chile belongs to the yellow race, and the Turkic people with a small number have merged with a large number of Chile people. The physical characteristics of his body have also evolved from Caucasian to yellow and white.

Many Turkic nobles, just from the appearance point of view, the characteristics of the yellow race are better than those of the white race.

Ashina Tengjin was born differently, with a broad face and red skin, and eyes as bright as glass.

Since ancient times, there has been a saying that people who look very different from ordinary people can achieve great things. Obviously, many people in the Turkic tribes believe in this, and many people follow him because of this.

And Ashina Qijin did not live up to expectations. The rise of the Turks was destined to compete with the surrounding tribes for pastures. He is the most outstanding son of Ashina Tumen.

Ashina Tumen entrusted him with the task of harassing the royal court of Rouran, and he can also see that Nobu is heavy.

Attacking the Rouran Royal Court is a technical job, and it cannot be done quickly. If An Luochen's more than ten thousand defenders were to be easily defeated, Anayu knew that there was no hope of rescue, so he would not rush on the road.

Enough pressure must also be given to force An Luochen to urge Anahu to come back for help.

The speed in the middle needs to be grasped by Ashina Tengjin himself.

On April 550th in the third year of Zhaode ([-]), Ashina Qijin raided the royal court of Rouran. At the beginning, An Luochen's defenders were insufficiently prepared and were beaten back steadily. But for some reason, the Turkic offensive slowed down. , Giving Rouran an opportunity to take advantage of, An Luochen quickly gathered his troops, and called on the remaining young men of the royal court to win [-] soldiers and drive the Turks back.

However, the crisis has not passed. Ashina Tengjin's [-] people seem to be just a vanguard. There is always smoke and dust behind his station, and there seems to be continuous follow-up reinforcements.

An Luochen didn't dare to be careless. After all, the royal court has a large number of women and children, all of whom are family members of soldiers. If he loses the royal court, he will not be able to pay the job at all, let alone inherit the Khan position.

An Luochen, who was blinded by the illusion of reinforcements made by Ashina Tengjin, immediately sent an envoy to Huaihuang Town to report. Now that [-] soldiers can be placed, the wording of An Luochen's letter is becoming more and more urgent.

That is to say, An Luochen did not dare to take risks lightly, otherwise as long as he led his troops out of the royal court to fight Ashina Qijin, he would find that the tents accommodating [-] soldiers were mostly vacant, and it was just a bluff.

Let’s talk about Huaihuang, although Rouran’s envoy arrived in Luoyang on March [-]th, and there has been no news for a long time, Anahu is not in a hurry. Given the distance between Luoyang and Huaihuang, it will take a lot of time to travel, let alone For such a big matter, Gao Cheng had to discuss it with the courtiers.

Ever since Gao Cheng explicitly refused to join forces with the Turks and stood in line with Rouran, even though Liang Ren had never masked his face, Anahu became more and more pleasing to his eyes when he saw this grandson-in-law, and the more he saw him, the more he liked him.

However, in the first ten days of May, Anahu received two pieces of bad news one after another. One was that the Rouran envoy sent to Luoyang saw that Gao Cheng had made up his mind, so he had no choice but to send someone to report back and relay Gao Cheng's words. The army and the people are exhausted, and the treasury is scarce. I hope Rouran can maintain restraint and wait for a period of recuperation before joining forces with Rouran.

Gao Cheng's so-called exhaustion of the army and civilians and lack of treasury is purely to bully Anaru for not knowing the true situation of Northern Qi.

After all, few people know that Gao Cheng used Zumo money to rob Nanliang. There is clear evidence that the remaining small amount of Zumo money in Huainan and Jianghan Zumo money were used to cast Zhaode Tongbao. The lack of national treasury cannot be faked.

And because the Zumoqian was exchanged by the Northern Qi court with a full amount of Zhaode Tongbao and the people, the casting of Zumoqian not only failed to make a profit, but also lost a lot.

Gao Cheng prevaricated with this reason, although Anahu was dissatisfied, he could understand.

Just when he was about to pack his bags and return to the royal court, he received a letter from An Luochen asking for help.

Previously, as Ashina Tengjin suspected more and more soldiers, An Luochen sent letters for help more and more diligently, sometimes three or four letters could be sent out in a day.

Such frequent requests for help and the fact that the main Turkic forces gathered on the west side of the royal court finally caused Anahu to misjudge the situation.

He believed that since the Turkic main force was all near the royal court, there must be no spare energy to set up an ambush on the way, and he was anxious about whether An Luochen could hold the royal court.

On May 550th in the third year of Zhaode ([-]), Anahu sent an army of [-] Rouran out of Huaihuang to help Wang Ting, and at the same time sent envoys to Luoyang, hoping that Gao Cheng would send reinforcements.

It's really not that Anahu was unrestrained, it's that the Turkic people have hit their lair.

In fact, An Luochen, who was far away in the king's court in Mobei, had already discovered the clues. An Luochen felt that if he was the commander of the Turks, since he mobilized a large army to force the king's court, he would naturally attack early and try to take down the king before his father Khan returned to help. court, looting women and children.

However, there are more and more tents used by Ashina Tengjin to bluff, and the number is going up to [-], but there is no attack on the royal court for a long time. It is impossible for the Turks to come to the Rouran royal court for sightseeing.

An Luochen, who noticed the difference, immediately sent a small group of soldiers to attack at night, and only after he got the reward did he know the truth, which made him gasp. An Luochen didn't even need to think about the real location of his main force, it must be plotting against the army led by his father Anahu.

Reminiscent of his urging for the past few days, An Luochen's intestines are going to regret, why can't he test the truth first, and then ask for help.

After all, greed for Khan's position blinded his reason, and all he thought about at that time was to keep the royal court.

There has been a saying since ancient times, it is never too late to mend a dead sheep, so An Luochen hurriedly sent an envoy to inform Anahu of the news, telling him to be careful of Turkic ambushes along the way.

That's the way it is said, but the sheep have all run away, so there is no time to make amends.

From An Luochen's first request letter to his reaction, there was an interval of more than ten days. There was no modern communication in ancient times. Messages had to be delivered by messengers on horseback. Before An Luochen's warning messenger arrived, Ah In the false news that the Turkic main force was attacking the Rouran royal court, Nayu rushed to the Turkic ambush circle.

　When I got up at [-] o'clock this afternoon, I felt much more comfortable. I should be able to resume normal updates tomorrow. Thank you for your understanding during this time.
