Elegy of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 369 Are the Ten Khans wearing hats?
Jinskia has been quiet recently, staying in the inn all day and living in seclusion. But the members of her mission looked like they were ready to make a move. Someone in the mission disguised himself and left the Ili Valley, heading west in secret. Fang Chongyong sent people to follow them all the way, and found that these people only went to Suiye Town, wandered around Suiye City, and met with slave traders.

I didn’t come into contact with anyone in particular, and in the end I actually returned the same way.

Che Guangqian beat the slave trader to death, but did not find anything during the interrogation. The other party insisted that Jinsikeya's entourage came to inquire about the price. Che Guangqian used all kinds of methods, and the slave traders did not let go. He didn't even know the identities of these people.

In desperation, Che Guangqian ordered someone to write down all the itineraries of the members of the Jinsi Kaiya mission and send them to Bagua City for Fang Chongyong to observe. Che Guangqian also boldly guessed that this might be an attempt by members of the Jinskiya mission to rebel and sell the lost princess to slave traders. After selling it for a good price, everyone fled to the end of the world.

Such a bloody conjecture made Fang Chongyong, the Western Region Economic and Strategy Ambassador with a lot of bad intentions, couldn't help but marvel.

The slave deceived the master, and the following committed the crime. This story has been played out for thousands of years. There is really nothing new under the sun.

However, the Stone Kingdom has been destroyed by Gao Xianzhi, and Jinsi Kaiya is just a shrimp. Apart from the enchanting body that drives men crazy, it has become worthless.

Fang Chongyong didn't care at all what this scheming woman was planning, nor what the people in the other party's mission were going to do. He had more important things to do now.

On this day, Fang Chongyong invited all the generals to the government office to discuss important matters. Seeing that everyone had arrived, he looked around at the generals and asked, "Can anyone tell me what the situation in Suiye Town is like now?"

Everyone in the lobby looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what to say. After all, they didn't know any more about the customs and customs further west than Fang Chongyong did.

He actually had an idea in his mind, but he still wanted to hear what other people thought, so that he could hear both sides and gain a clearer view.

Fang Chongyong looked around the crowd and asked.

Of course, this excuse still conforms to the logic of war. If there is any killer move on the part of the Black-Clothed Eater, the remnants of Sui Qi Shi in Suiye Town may be the winner of the victory for the Black-clothed Eater, Governor Abu Muslim of Khorasan.

At that time, it would be enough for Tuqi Shi, the tenth surnamed Khan, to block the Tang army's food routes and pretend to be bandits to harass him. There was no need for the leader of Tuqi Shi to openly oppose the Tang Dynasty.

Fang Chongyong waved his hands calmly and said nonchalantly.

"Feng Canjun, please go to Suiye Town in person and find the Khan named Shi Shi who is the sudden cavalryman."

When Ashina Xin arrived at Julan City in the southwest of Suiye, he was killed by Mohe Dagan, which shocked the government and the public.

"Ambassador, Iridimi Shigundu Lubijia, the Ten-surnamed Khan, is rebellious and shrewd and cunning. On the surface, he is respectful to the Tang Dynasty, but in fact, he is secretly connected with the Great Food Kingdom and the Tubo people. The main one is one The general will think that this person is not trustworthy."

"Hey, what do you think it's the end of the general? Let's kill him and kill that so-and-so Khan."

"What Jieshuai means is that we want to..."

Of course he couldn't say he made it up.

The so-called "city" here and the city controlled by Datang are two completely different concepts.

Fang Chongyong just likes to plan things in advance to avoid being plotted by others later.

"Well, Feng Canjun said it well.

Feng Changqing said eloquently.

The imperial court took the opportunity to destroy the Tuqishi Khanate.

Duan Xiushi made a gesture of wiping his neck and sounded hesitant.

That is the current manager of Broken Leaf Town. "

Fang Chongyong asked with a slight frown.

Suddenly, Feng Changqing, the record-keeping officer beside Fang Chongyong, raised his hand and asked with a humble tone: "Ambassador Fang, I know something, can you tell me here?"

However, the Tang army lacked the means to directly control the local area in Suiye Town and had to rely on Tuqishi to maintain the grain road.

"What do you think?"

The matter is of great importance, and I don’t know whether it is true or not, so I asked him to come to Bagua City to explain the matter. "

Feng Changqing said with certainty, this time in a very firm tone, no longer as humble as usual.

He Changqi patted his round head and shouted.

Fang Chongyong pondered for a moment, and then continued: "Tell him, the secret agents of the Tang Army found out that Abu Muslim, the governor of Khorasan in black, wrote a secret letter to him. The letter agreed that when the food army comes from When attacking Shiguo, Kangguo and other places in the west, Tuqi Shihui cooperated with Dashiguo to cut off the Tang army's retreat.

If the Tenth Khan of Tuqishi has a guilty conscience, he will definitely not come.

"Okay, let's start after Sulu Khan. Everyone knows what happened before."

After the war, the imperial court consecrated Ashina Huaidao's son Ashina Xin as Khan with the ten surnames, commanding the Western Turks and Tuqishi tribes. However, the imperial court's arrangement was strongly opposed by Mohe Dagan, who had contributed a lot before.

Yes, Suiye Town is indeed not far from the Yili River Valley, but not only are the geographical environments of the two sides very different, but the population, tribes, and Tang Court's control are even more different.

"At the beginning, Tuqi Shi Sulu Khan's tribe had two tribes under the great leader Mohe Dagan and Dumodu. These two tribes were the most powerful, but they were at odds with Sulu. Later, Mohe Dagan He conspired with Dumodu to attack Sulu late at night, leaving all the Tuqishi tribes without a leader and falling into chaos.

No, it is almost certain that he will never come! Regardless of whether there is collusion with the big cannibal!
"Jie Shuai, we don't seem to have control over the situation of the black-clad governor of Khorasan! And what's going on with this secret letter?"

Fang Chongyong nodded slightly to express his approval.

Coming to Ili Valley?
All the generals looked at each other, feeling that Fang Chongyong was really out of his mind.

So the imperial court asked Meng Lingcha, the deputy governor of Beiting, to send troops to conquer Mohe Dagan, defeat him and behead him. After the war, Iridi Mishi Gudulu Piga, the original Sulu tribe, was appointed Khan with ten surnames.

Since Emperor Gaozong, Suiye Town has never returned to the actual control of the Tang Dynasty, and it has always adopted a policy of restraint. Moreover, the geographical environment of Suiye Town has completely degraded from semi-agricultural to nomadic!
The city of Broken Leaf City was in ruins and no one was repairing it. Whether they are Tuqishi or Turks, they are all tribal systems and do not need to garrison the city. Therefore, the city of Suiye Town is nothing more than a transit station used to house Buddhist temples and trade goods.

It has to be said that fighting is all about calculation. The moment the war starts, the outcome is often determined. The one who counts more wins, and the one who counts less loses.

Wang Rao asked with a puzzled look on his face.

Tuqishi Khan only sent people to the city to maintain basic public order and collect business taxes.

"It's a secret in the military. It's normal for you not to know."

The ambassador will ask you again, that so-and-so, yes, that name is too long to remember. Now the ten-surnamed Khan in Suiye Town, how is this person? "

"Jie Shuai, what if this Khan of the Tenth Surname doesn't come?"

He Changqi asked. As soon as he opened his mouth, he regretted it and slapped himself quickly.

Do you dare to come?
If this Khan with the Tenth Surname dares not come to the Ili Valley, then Fang Chongyong will lead his troops to find trouble for him, and then replace him with a Khan with the Tenth Surname!

Anyway, the tenth surname of Khan is a title, as long as you have this title, Fang Chongyong doesn't care who the person with this name is!

"Let's go early, we will set off today."

Fang Chongyong looked at Feng Changqing and said.

"Ambassador Fang, please rest assured that I will definitely fulfill my mission!"

Feng Changqing clasped his fists and saluted with excitement. If this matter can be handled properly, the military achievements will not be small.

"Well, do your errands well and get ready now."

Fang Chongyong sent Feng Changqing away. He saw that all the generals were eager to try, so he sneered:
"Why are you so anxious? Don't you understand the principle of having a good reputation? Even if you want to launch a surprise attack, you have to make up... a suitable reason before you can send troops!"
Attendant, please write to the saint as soon as possible, saying that the Khan named Shi Shi of Suiye Town Tuqi has evil intentions and is trying to harm the Tang Dynasty.

I hope that the saint can give this ambassador full authority to deal with it conveniently, so as to prevent the situation on the front line from changing too quickly and not being able to deal with it in time, causing it to turn into an elbow or an armpit. "

Bian Lingcheng was so stared at that he nodded and said, "Ambassador Fang, don't worry, the saint won't mind these official matters. Let's write them now." As he said this, he actually started to write the ink on the spot. All the generals were stunned for a moment!

This chamberlain is really no ordinary person! Fang Chongyong had been frightened into following his advice by his endless tricks!

"Everyone, start now to assemble your army and prepare for war. We may go out at any time at any time. Let's go!"

Fang Chongyong stood up and waved his hand, without explaining at all why the Ten Surnamed Khans came to Bagua City and the Anxi Expeditionary Force was preparing to fight.

After the generals left, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Yesterday, people sent back by Che Guangqian reported that the Tang army under Gao Xianzhi's massive looting in Shiguo had aroused great public outrage and was ready to leave.

It seems that the time for Black Clothes Dashi to take action is imminent!

Only then did Fang Chongyong decide to decisively deal with the forces opposed to the Tang Dynasty in the Suiye area, so as to eliminate worries before the army set off for the expedition. Taking action now will probably not alarm the enemy, but of course, it is not appropriate to delay it any longer.

……

Late at night, in the courtyard of the post house where Jinskia lived, the delicate Princess of the Stone Kingdom was tied up like a rice dumpling, and her mouth was gagged with a piece of cloth.

She looked at the leader of the mission named Ali, who was also a distant relative of hers, with angry eyes. She had no idea why he wanted to bribe the mission's guards, and then suddenly got into trouble and tied himself up with evil intentions.

"Princess, oh no, you are just a commodity now.

The Stone Kingdom is gone, but as a princess, you should be able to fetch a good price to slave traders.

Tsk tsk, if it weren't for the fact that the price of a virgin is much higher, I would now like to try what it's like to have that precious body of yours. "

Ali said expressionlessly.

Although his words were lewd, it was obvious that this person did not have much pursuit of beauty. In other words, apart from Jinsikeya's noble status, her beauty was not without substitute.

As long as you have money, what kind of stunning Orchid can't be obtained? Do you really have to have fun with Jinskia?
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!"

Jinskia lay on the bed and cursed angrily, but her mouth was stuffed with cloth and she couldn't say a word.

At this moment, she didn't show any noble aura, but she looked like a desperate Chihuahua whimpering.

At this moment, the door was pushed open! He Changqi rushed in with several sharp soldiers.

Fang Chongyong, on the other hand, leaned against the door frame, looked at Ali and joked: "Huh? Go on, what are you doing watching this handsome guy? We are just here to join in the fun. Just keep doing whatever you want and that's it."

"Ambassador Fang, please forgive me. I was planning to kidnap the princess and send her to you! I didn't expect you to arrive first.

Let's leave now so that we won't hinder your good deeds! "

Ali knelt down without thinking!

There are Tang troops everywhere here, and no matter how much courage they have, they can't compare to the weapons in the opponent's hands!

Fang Chongyong was too lazy to talk nonsense and just waved his hand gently.

He Changqi sneered, raised the knife in his hand, and pierced Ali's neck with the knife. Blood splashed on the face of Jinsi Kaiya who was lying on the bed and could not move!
The other attendants in the room were also instantly killed by the sharp soldiers of the Silver Spear Xiaojie Army. Soon, the choking smell of blood filled the entire room.

"I asked you to take the person away, but I didn't order the killing.

Make the house so dirty that the officials from the imperial court will have to stay there in the future! "

Fang Chongyong looked at He Changqi helplessly and complained.

"Sorry, Marshal, I'm used to it, I'm used to it."

He Changqi rubbed his head in embarrassment and winked at his soldiers.

Everyone dragged all the bodies out of the house, and soon only Fang Chongyong and Jin Sikeya, who was lying on the bed, was left frightened.

"The saint's ability to control her subordinates is really unflattering.

Once you lose power, your men will actually kidnap you and sell you to slave traders in Broken Leaf Town.

I didn't instigate them to do this, right? You can't fail like this in life, right? "

Fang Chongyong stepped forward and took off the cloth from Jinskaya's mouth. Then he looked at the unfortunate Princess of Stone Kingdom with caring eyes.

If I hadn't always had an informant in the post house and kept an eye on what was going on here, this arrogant and arrogant princess of the Stone Kingdom, who had no real palace, would have been finished long ago.

It must have been that Ali was greedy for money, otherwise he would have raped the princess first, then killed someone and hid the body, and finally left Yili without a trace, and Fang Chongyong would have been too late to rescue her.

I have to say that Che Guangqian is really good at intelligence. He even guessed that the princess mission was going to have internal strife and sell the princess to slave traders. Fang Chongyong couldn't help but sigh, there were indeed hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the Tang army, and there were many capable people.

"Ambassador Fang, can you untie the rope from my body?"

Seeing that Fang Chongyong was distracted thinking about the problem, Jinsi Kaiya couldn't help but give him a reminder.

"What can you do to me if I don't want to be untied?"

Fang Zhongyong asked confidently.

Jinskia was speechless by the rebuke. She really couldn't do anything to the other party.

However, Fang Chongyong just said casually and untied the rope smoothly.

"You, take me to take a bath..."

Jinskia looked at Fang Chongyong timidly and said, her eyes looked like a pet she had just brought home from a pet store.

"Shall you go by yourself, or shall I carry you?"

Fang Chongyong almost laughed out of anger at her. He didn't even say "please" when asking for help, and he had the stench of an aristocrat.

"You, you hug me."

Jinskia said something that surprised Fang Chongyong. He originally thought that this proud saint would leave on her own.

Well, I feel relieved just thinking about it.

The openness and openness of women in the Western Regions are indeed very different from those in the Central Plains. Although Anaye has foreign blood, she essentially grew up in Liangzhou and has a more traditional personality.

Fang Zhongyong immediately understood and without any pretense, he directly picked up Jinsi Kaiya by the waist and walked out of the bloody post house.

He carried Jinskaya to the door, and was seen by He Changqi and others, who all whistled crazily at the saint in his arms!
Even if the atmosphere in the Western Region becomes more open again, Jinsi Kaiya will not feel embarrassed, burying her head in Fang Chongyong's arms and pretending to be an ostrich.

The two came to the greenhouse (bathing room), and Fang Chongyong saw that Anaye had prepared hot water. He put Jinskia down, winked at Anaye and said, "Leave it to you."

"Alang, please don't worry, I know what to do."

Anaye's beautiful eyes narrowed into slits and she nodded at him with a smile.
