"Tonight, the guest of honor is Tuli Khan, and the guest of honor is Toure. Come and cut the sheep!"

Tuli Khan and Ashnadur gave way several times, and in the end it was Ashnadur who took the fight.

From the moment he sat here today, he seemed unusually calm, kneeling extremely quietly, no matter whether Li Yuanxing said he wanted to punish Princess Huainan, or whether he had precious treasures, he always sat motionless like that.

This is how Ashnadur grew up.

He has a dream, he hopes to become a great general.

Before Ashnadur came to the roasted lamb, he pulled out the barrier knife that was equipped with him.

Little Khan Tuli saw this barrier knife just now. The scabbard is very ordinary, but the hard bamboo shell is wrapped with a layer of linen. There is an iron sleeve at the edge of the knife and the tip of the scabbard.

When he first saw this knife, Little Khan Tuli's first reaction was that Ashnadur's life in Datang was not good.

At least not rich.

But when Ashnadur pulled out the knife, Little Khan Tuli's eyes changed.

There was not the slightest reflection on the knife, but there was an inexplicable chill. It was a good knife.At this moment, Ashnadur moved, swung his knife and quickly chopped dozens of knives on the roasted whole lamb.

The sheep's head was cut off from the neck with a knife.

Ashnadur didn't have the skills of a super chef, he didn't know how to cut along the bone seam, he used the strength of his wrist and the sharpness of the knife to cut off the sheep bone.

But that action is not like cutting a bone, but cutting tofu.

"Humble general!" Ashnadur put the foreleg meat on the tray, put the knife in his hand on the table in front of him, and strode to the seat: "The humble general knows that the honorable eldest grandson queen doesn't like it. Fatty, the foreleg meat is tender, but not greasy."

"You are wrong. You are a general of the Tang Dynasty, so you don't need to add any dignity to the emperor's wife. Just a simple sentence, ask the queen to use mutton. Love is at your fingertips!"

Ashnadur smiled, a smile that Tuli Little Khan had never seen before.

This is a child-like, sincere and innocent smile.

"I will remember next time!"

Empress Changsun returned the gift to show her gratitude, and said: "How are you preparing for the wedding, what else do you need?"

"Cui Changshi and Wei Changshi have helped the humble generals a lot, and the generals at the border have traveled thousands of miles to transport a lot of items from our Turkic tribe. Everything is ready, and it must be foolproof!" Ashnadur was very excited. Talking happily.

In terms of age, he is still young at this time.

Without a father or a mother, he needs a relative.

Li Yuanxing is the king of Qin and his boss. From the bottom of his heart, he is a little afraid of Li Yuanxing, but the kindness of Empress Changsun makes him feel like a mother, so his words are much closer, and his heart is even more respectful.

On the other side, Little Khan Tuli was watching the barrier knife Ashnadur put on the table.

Little Turkic Khan is the prince of Turkic. He has been playing with knives since he was a child. The three most important things in his life are knives in first place, knives in second, and knives in third. bow.After that, comes power, wealth and so on!

This knife is more than impressive.

It is definitely an extraordinary treasure knife, but why is such a treasure knife only used as a barrier knife, such a fine steel, such a craft has already made a horizontal knife, or a curved knife.

Thinking of this, Little Khan Tuli shifted his gaze to the knife rest in the hallway.

When everyone comes in, they will put their saber on the knife holder. The barrier knife is a ceremonial knife and the only knife that can not leave the body.Although such a knife, it also has a lot of lethality.

On the knife rest, there is a straight knife that is longer than the other knives. The scabbard is still very ordinary, but from the decoration on it, it can be seen that it is a Turkic straight knife.When the Turkic knife was in the Sui Dynasty, it affected the knife-making process of the Sui Dynasty. The straight knife had some craft and shape characteristics, which also affected the Tang Hengdao.

But the Turkic Knife is the Turkic Knife, even if the Turkic people were in turn influenced by the Tang Knife.

Tuli Little Khan can see the subtle difference between the two kinds of knives.

The length of the knife is one inch longer than the standard, and the requirements for steel are several times higher, and the length of the knife is five inches, which is almost impossible.

Little Tuli Khan had an urge to pull out the knife.

Ashnadur had already returned and sat back in his seat. Little Khan Tuli asked, "Why doesn't it deserve a good scabbard? Your knife seems very extraordinary!"

Ashnadur generously handed the knife to Little Khan Tuli and said, "This is Yaozhou super steel with some added materials. I'm not a knife maker so I can't tell the difference. This one is actually a broken knife. Knife, in terms of material, artisans say it is comparable to Yidao's Duanlang, but I was young and energetic, and only after I competed with Yidao did I understand that the person who uses the knife is different, and a good knife will also be dusty."

Little Khan Tuli looked carefully at the blade, the tip of the blade seemed not perfect.

Think about what Ashnadur said, it should be cut off here, and there is no repair, but the part of the broken blade is beaten into the tip of the knife.

However, after thinking about it, Little Khan Tuli still didn't understand: "What you said has nothing to do with the scabbard!"

"With a good scabbard, someone always thinks about it. Zhili Sili has thought about it. The scabbard is more ordinary, just like an ordinary sergeant. As long as it is a standard knife issued by the above, naturally no one will think about it. Already." When Ashnadur said, he was very happy.

Little Tuli Khan asked again: "Don't tell me your subordinates dare to peep at your treasure!"

"They are all brothers in the same battalion, but I have a higher position as a general. Speaking of treasure, although such a knife is rare, it is not impossible to buy it. Even if you can't buy it, you can get it with military merit. Brothers, it's not like when we were on the grassland, although we sat in the same tent, our hearts were thousands of miles away!"

Little Tuli Khan didn't answer, he felt that the Ashnadur in front of him was different from the one in his memory.

At this time, Ashnadur continued: "Actually, it's just a knife, it's more fun!"

"Compared to those pearls?" Little Khan Tuli asked again.

"I have a farm at the border between Huazhou and Chang'an. I have only thirteen slaves, the rest are hired Shiwei people, and some local people. I have one hundred cows, thirty-four thousand pigs, There are 70 sheep and [-] chickens. There are also [-] acres of fertile land and an eight-acre orchard. It is estimated that in two or three years, the orchard will be able to bear fruit."

Little Tuli Khan was calculating the value of these in his heart.

Ashnadur said at this time: "We have 3000 Thunder Riders, and we share a mountain. There is a very secret workshop in this mountain. The output value of this workshop is at least [-] per year, which is paid to the workshop. The wages of the craftsmen, plus the maintenance of the machine, fell on the Thunder Riders, and there were close to [-] guan. This is the reward our Thunder Riders received after the battle of Liaocheng and Jian'an."

What does [-] guan represent.

Using the wool on the grassland as an example, the wool from 600 million sheep is needed to exchange for the [-] guan of silver.

What's more, the amount of wool Datang bought on the grassland at the moment is far from such a large amount.Take the tribe of Tuli Little Khan as an example, their wool, plus goat milk, sheepskin, and mutton.It barely reached the income of [-] Guan.

But his tribe is more than just 3000 people.

"General Ashina, I respect you." Qin Qiong raised his glass from a distance and shouted.

Ashnadur raised his glass high and drank a large bowl of wine happily, then raised another glass: "General Qin, I respect you!"

Little Tuli Khan suddenly felt that Ashnadur was very rich, and he didn't even need to consider grabbing spoils for his wealth. He only needed to fight according to the requirements of King Qin of the Tang Dynasty, and he would get what he deserved after the battle.

"Surely, Tang's army is very rich!" Little Khan Tuli said with a smile.

"That's not the case. Among the Tiance Four Guards, our Thunder Cavalry is the richest. Because we have the most military exploits." Ashnadur didn't say everything, he just said military exploits.It was about the battle of Liaocheng, but one of his military achievements was the Luoyang flood, but this was not a real battle, so he didn't mention it.

At this time, Ashnadur just thought that he obeyed the order.

I don't know what it means to fight against the flood.

Because it was not a real battle, he had been avoiding the topic of the Luoyang flood.

"The richest are the Right Martial Guard, the Left Ling Guard, and the Right Wei Guard. Their accumulative combat achievements are higher than our Thunder Cavalry, but although they have more rewards, the number of these three guards is much higher than our Thunder Cavalry. So it is divided into everyone's hands, Lei Qi will not lose too much to them, I just hope that there will be some battles to fight in the past two years!"

After Ashnadur finished speaking, he saw Princess Hengyang waving to him quietly.

"Elder brother hasn't been drinking or eating meat. I'm afraid he's just talking. Eat and drink first, and I'll be back soon!"

Little Tuli Khan nodded in a daze, his mind was already filled with Ashnadur's words.

That sentence, I hope there will be some battles to fight in the past two years.

On the steppe, when does one wish to fight.

There is not enough food for the winter, not enough wine and meat.If you go south to rob, you can get supplements for the winter.

But once the water and grass are abundant and the sheep grow strong, there are enough sheep for the winter.Under such circumstances, the entire grassland is unwilling to fight.

Ordinary tribesmen are unwilling, because they can already survive the winter.

The leader of the tribe is also unwilling, because sending troops does not necessarily guarantee that they can get it back, and sometimes they may pay a lot of dried meat, and many tribesmen will die.

Especially in good years, when there is enough food, they dare not act rashly.

Because the clansmen have no desire for loot, no desire to fight, they only want to grab things and save their lives.

Ashnadur was already very rich if the said inheritance was true.

Under such circumstances, he still longed for war.

Little Tuli Khan felt a faint feeling of fear in his heart.

If the entire Tang army is like this, then who are the enemies around Datang now?

The Turks are not considered friends of the Tang Dynasty, but barely considered enemies for the time being. (To be continued.)
