Datang: Ten Years of Proton, Leading an Army of Millions to Return

"Damn King Chu!!!"

Jieli Khan could not accept this result.

In this battle, most of the 100,000 men lost their lives.

Damn!

Really damn it!

And I was stupid, how could I be so stupid that I forgot about the advantages of my own cavalry and went to attack the city!

Jieli Khan almost cried his eyes dry.

However, at this time, he only felt deeply powerless and regretful.

But the speed of the war horse under his crotch has not slowed down at all.

Running from day to night without stopping at all, the horses were tired and began to breathe heavily.

"Khan, Khan! The Turkic Royal Court is ahead!"

"Khan, we...we are safe!"

Tongli Khan, who had been silent until now, suddenly yelled.

As soon as this sound came out, the surrounding Turks all raised their heads that had been covered before charging.

They looked at the familiar scenery around them and couldn't help but let out a heavy breath from their mouths.

Slowly, everyone's speed also slowed down.

Jieli Khan couldn't help but take another look at Tuli Khan.

Three years ago, his finger was broken. Jieli Khan always thought it was Tuli's fault, so he had been neglecting Tuli Khan and squeezing his tribe in the past few years.

And this battle...

Tuli proved himself that he is a loyal minister of the Turks!

Jieli Khan planned to reuse Tuli in the future and pay back the persecution against him step by step.

"Khan, don't be discouraged. Victory and defeat are commonplace in military affairs."

"This is an old saying of the Han people. We still have a chance. We still have such a large grassland, we still have the Turkic royal court, and we still have so many cattle and sheep. Khan, we... still have hope, but we have no A complete failure!”

Tuli Khan moved to Jieli Khan's side and whispered.

The Huihe chief and others also gathered around Jieli Khan.

It's time,

They knew very well that the Turks must unite.

Jieli Khan swallowed hard and sighed softly, his face full of weakness.

It wasn't just him who was having a rollercoaster of emotions today. Almost everyone who was tortured was exhausted to the extreme.

Jieli Khan looked forward.

Now he just wants to return to the royal court to have a good rest, have a good sleep, and temporarily forget everything about today.

But suddenly,

His eyes suddenly flickered and he stared straight ahead.

"Why...why didn't the flames rise in the Turkic Royal Court today?"

Jieli Khan asked doubtfully against his hoarse throat.

He was a little puzzled.

To know,

In front is the Turkic Royal Court, which is the absolute heart of the Turks and the most fertile place on this grassland.

Whenever night falls, a brazier will be raised in the Turkic Royal Court, reflecting the stars in the sky as if it were daytime.

of course,

There are times when it doesn't light up, but those situations are quite special.

For example, if a respected old man on the grassland dies, or there is some major sacrificial ceremony, the brazier is not allowed to be lit.

But usually, this brazier never goes out.

Could it be... is it because he was defeated?

but!

Not right either!

It was impossible for the news of his defeat to reach the Turkic Royal Court so quickly.

beside,

Tuli Khan, the Uighur team leader and others were also a little puzzled.

"Khan, the princess should have ordered the fire to be extinguished and prayed for Khan."

Tuli Khan made an explanation casually.

Jieli Khan exhaled heavily.

"Forget it, it's better not to light up the flames."

"This time, after my king has been defeated so much, how can I have the dignity to let the princess and the sons and daughters of the Turkic Royal Court come to greet me?"

"Let's go back to the royal court. We are all bereaved dogs today."

Jieli Khan said solemnly.

Everyone, follow slowly.

call….

It's late at night, and the wind has picked up on the grassland. It's a bit cold and mixed with a little sand.

but,

As the distance got closer, Jieli Khan also noticed something different.

So quiet!

It's really so quiet!

If he didn't light the flame just now, it could be explained, but now the strange silence that was beyond ordinary times made him suddenly panic for some reason.

"Why is it so quiet? Even though it's late now, it can't be so quiet. Is the entire Turkic Royal Court asleep?"

"But how is this possible!"

Jieli Khan stared straight ahead, but in the dark night, he could not see clearly.

The moon and stars in the sky are also covered by thick dark clouds tonight, as if the sky will change on the grassland tomorrow.

Tuli Khan, the leader of the Huihe tribe, the chief of the Shatuo tribe, they all looked at each other and felt something was wrong.

"Yes, even if the fire is not lit, it is not so quiet. There are the sounds of children crying, couples quarreling, and the sounds of cattle and sheep..."

Tuli Khan also became confused, which he could not explain.

There were many residents in the Turkic royal court.

It is no less than a city in the Tang Dynasty or Mansion.

In a place like this, are all the residents asleep?

Is there no one who lights the stove?

Isn't there a child crying?

This is absolutely not normal.

To know,

On weekdays, the stove in every household is lit, and the big tent can have some light when viewed from the outside.

but now….

"Come on, go to the front and see what's going on."

Jieli Khan opened his mouth and gave direct instructions.

Immediately,

Several cavalrymen rushed out.

He ran towards the Turkic royal court.

After a while.

"Ah! Khan!!"

From the front, there was an extremely explosive shout.

This sound was made by the cavalrymen just now.

Immediately,

Jieli Khan secretly thought that something was wrong, and the breathing of Tuli Khan and the chiefs of the major tribes next to them also stopped suddenly, and then followed. A huge fear spread from the bottom of my heart.

Is there something wrong with the Turkic Royal Court?

"damn it!"

Jieli Khan roared: "Come, come with me and see what's going on!"

He shouted, galloped his horse, and headed straight for the Turkic royal court.

After counting the interest,

When they arrived in front of the Turkic royal court, they were completely numb.

The whole person began to tremble, and the whole person began to tremble.

This….

This, this, this! !

Everyone's chests exploded, the blood in their whole bodies burned and boiled completely, and a large amount of cold sweat was secreted all over their bodies.

What did I see?

ruins!

ruins!

A piece of ruins! !

The Turkic Royal Court has been completely reduced to ruins. Even now, they can smell the burning smell in the air. This smell makes them go crazy, frightens them, and makes them tremble.

The Turkic Royal Court, was this... stolen?

"Ah, who! Who is it?! Damn it, damn it, damn it, who did this?"

"Princess, princess! Is anyone there? Answer Ben Khan!"

Jieli Khan almost fell off his horse and staggered forward. He seemed to be crazy or crazy.

He wanted to pull up the ruins to see if anyone was alive.

He yelled, yelled.

However, no one responded.

As for the Turkic people who were originally in the Turkic royal court, many of them survived after Zhang Liao led his troops to wreak havoc.

But in order to prevent Zhang Liao from retaliate, some respected Turkic elders had already taken them away from the Turkic royal court and took refuge.

This also resulted in Jieli Khan being unable to find anyone.

Even if you dig three feet nearby, it is difficult to find traces of human beings. "What's going on? What's going on here...how did the Turkic Royal Court get into this state? Who! Who did it!!"

"Gudong... No. No, no, no! How is this possible? Who is it? Who is attacking our Turkic Royal Court while we are away!"

"Oh my God, what the hell is going on? Is anyone there? Is anyone still there?"

"......."

Tuli Khan, the Huihe clan leader and others also dismounted and looked at everything in front of them, completely horrified and confused.

They had never thought about such a situation, and they had never expected it.

damn it!

I still want to destroy Dayan!

As a result...the heart of his empire was crushed.

Don’t even know yet!

The Turkic cavalry also dismounted. They were silent, frightened, and even more at a loss.

Senseless!

Silly!

All of this was unimaginable to them.

The Turkic royal court was breached.

Countless residents living here have also completely disappeared.

Including...including their Turkic princess, Princess Yicheng!

Jieli Khan stood on the ruins, his eyes were blood red, looking around at the quiet Turkic royal court, and suddenly a mouthful of blood spurted out again.

His body went limp and he passed out.

"Khan! Khan! You must cheer up!"

"Khan, hurry, hurry! Go get water!"

"......."

Tuli Khan, the Huihe chief and others immediately surrounded him, hugging Jieli Khan's body and yelling crazily.

They are anxious.

Now that the Turks have suffered such great losses and have endured them, it can be said to be the biggest setback since the establishment of the Turks. At this time, it is also the moment when everyone above and below must work together.

As the benchmark of the Turks, Jieli Khan is also the last pillar in the hearts of the Turks. Nothing should happen to him again.

If Jieli Khan had died like this, the Turks would have dispersed all of a sudden.

By the time,

Each of their tribes will fight on their own, and even enter the darkest moments of chaos on the grasslands. It is a day that the chiefs of the tribes do not want to see again.

A cavalryman brought a pot of water from the river.

Tuli Khan carefully sprinkled it on Jieli Khan's face.

after a long time,

Jieli Khan slowly opened his eyes.

His eyes were all bloodshot.

"Khan, Khan!"

"At this time, you must hold on. Our Turkic Empire still wants you to lead our king back."

Tuli Khan said solemnly.

Jieli Khan's eyes stiffened.

He stared blankly at Tuli Khan. After an unknown amount of time, he slowly sat up and scanned the ruins. Finally, he took a deep breath and stood up.

"that's right."

"Our top priority now is to quickly gather the tribesmen from all major tribes and re-establish our Turkic faith."

"At the same time, we must also investigate! Find out where Princess Yicheng and the others are, and find an opportunity to rescue them all!"

"call.…"

Jieli Khan glanced at everyone's eyes and exhaled heavily.

Tuli Khan and others nodded vigorously.

And the Turkic cavalry around them all hit hard.

Their family members are all in the Turkic royal court.

Now that they are all gone, they are naturally very anxious.

Everyone looked at Jieli Khan.

The anger in his heart can reach the sky.

On the grassland, the wind is getting stronger and stronger.

Jieli Khan led the crowd and walked deeper into the grassland.

….….….….….….

Yanyun City.

The Qi Family Army and the Dayan Self-Defense Army were all completely moved.

This time.

Nearly 15,000 Turkic prisoners were captured.

This is not a small amount.

Not to mention these Turkic prisoners, all of them are extremely strong and must be watched carefully, otherwise someone may escape at any time.

Yanyun Palace.

Li Kuan listened to Qi Jiguang's report and gently clasped his knees with his fingers.

"Your Majesty, these 50,000 Turkic prisoners are now suppressed in batches outside the city. They are guarded by our Qi Army, while the Self-Defense Force is responsible for cleaning the battlefield."

"And in this battle, I, Dayan, suffered the most casualties among the soldiers of Wei. Now the commander has lost more than 3,000 people, and almost half of the entire 5,000-strong force has been destroyed."

Qi Jiguang's voice was a little heavy.

The same was true for Li Kuan. He thought about it and sighed: "The dead soldiers of Wei Wu were all good."

"Their pension must be the first in line. In addition, the reserve soldiers should also be trained as Wei soldiers as much as possible. The reserve soldiers of the entire camp should also be selected by Mr. Xin."

"After all... so many sons have died, but this is war. Either you die or I live in a national war. And all of these are... inevitable sacrifices for the empire to sweep across the wasteland."

"The empire will not forget them, and neither will I."

"On the day of their burial, I will also go to worship them, and I will also set up a public fundraiser for them, which will be located in the most precious downtown area of ​​Yanyun City."

"There are many people there, and I can tell the people coming and going that peace is hard-won. It is because someone is carrying the burden for them that they can bask in the sunshine easily."

When Qi Jiguang heard this, he couldn't help but laugh: "Your Majesty, Holy Ming!"

"correct!"

Qi Jiguang seemed to have remembered something and immediately said: "By the way, Your Majesty, Princess Yicheng and some people from the Turkic Royal Court were captured by Zhang Liao. The total number of people is about 6,000."

"The general temporarily threw them into the abandoned military camp in Yanyun City to serve as a prison for the time being."

"After all, most of the more than 6,000 people are women and children, and relying on them, the 15,000 Turkic captives can be constrained to do good things. It would be bad if they were mixed with other captives."

"Moreover, most of them are people of Turkic status and have considerable influence. Locking them together with Turkic prisoners will greatly increase the probability of gathering to cause trouble."

Li Kuan thought for a while, smiled and nodded.

"Okay, I'll do as you say."

"Princess Yicheng, haha... Yicheng."

Li Kuan narrowed his eyes slightly.

I couldn't help but think of this woman's ugly and arrogant face back then.

She also doesn’t know what her appearance and mentality would be like if she saw herself three years later, after becoming a prisoner of the Great Flame Stage.

"General Qi, it's up to you to take good care of them."

"Maybe in a few days, I will be free, and I have to go see Princess Yicheng."

Li Kuan spoke.

Qi Jiguang took the order, but when he was about to speak, news came from outside that Empress Xiao was going to meet.

Li Kuan was stunned.

And when he asked Qi Jiguang if there were any urgent military affairs, and when he learned that the other party said no, he summoned Queen Xiao in.

Queen Xiao is his concubine.

And a concubine is a concubine, with a low status!

If Du Ruyan came to meet him at this moment, he would not even ask Qi Jiguang about this matter, but would directly summon Du Ruyan in.

soon.

Queen Xiao came to the palace.

After being married to Li Kuan as his concubine for three years, she is still as beautiful as ever.

But she was obviously older than Li Kuan, but she was still extremely beautiful, as if the passage of time had not left any trace of it on this woman.

Still….overwhelming the country and the city.

Today's Empress Xiao has not changed much from three years ago, except that her belly is bigger, which is visible to the naked eye.

That's her, pregnant.

She is pregnant with King Chu's child.
