Bai Dao.

The golden wolf flag of the Turkic people fluttered high.

In February, the cold winter on the prairie has just ended. The winter on the prairie is extremely cold this year. After the heavy snowfall in winter, countless cattle, sheep and horses on the prairie froze to death.The Turkic people just came back from the cold winter, and the Turkic Khan Chuluo decided to move the Turkic Khan Court in Monan from Tieshan to the warmer and more lush Baidao, near Shengle, the northern capital of the Xianbei people in the past. , Let the Turks go there to take a breather.

This time, the southward move of the Khan Court caused a heated debate within the Turks, and many Turkic elders opposed Chu Luo Khan's decision to move southward.

They believed that Chu Luo's previous decision to move the Khan Court located in Yudujin Mountain in Mobei to Tieshan Mountain in Monan violated the wills left by several generations of Turkic Khans, broke the rules of Turkic ancestors, and lost thousands of miles. Gobi cover.And now Chuluo has further moved the Khan Court from Tieshan to the vicinity of Shengle, so that it is very close to the territory of the Han people.

All the Turks were worried that Shengle City was already within the furthest attack range of Zhao Guoshi's Xibu's iron cavalry. The Turks did not have a city to protect themselves like the Han people. There is almost no danger to defend.Once Li Chongjiu intends to go to war with the Turks, Zhao Guo's cavalry will be able to directly hit the Turkic Khan Court.

The opposition of the Turkic elders was finally suppressed by Chu Luo. Dozens of heads fell to the ground, and fresh blood suppressed any voice of opposition.Chu Luo used the bloody means pursued by the Turks and borrowed the matter of moving the khan court, which not only eradicated dissidents, but also further strengthened his khan power.

It is now June under the Yinshan Mountains, and Chuluo finally moved the Turkic Khan Court to Shengle. To the south is Baidao, which is the former Wuchuan Town of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and to the south is Mayi County.

The current Chuluo Khan, wearing the Khan's golden crown, is sitting on a horse with a majestic gaze.Surrounded by brave Turkic athletes, they are hunting with bows.For Chu Luo, who likes to hunt, a day without hunting is uncomfortable.

Chu Luo also likes to deal with government affairs while hunting, and now he is sending an envoy from the State of Zhao to his side. His younger brother, Mo He Duo She, Ashina Duo Bi, has just returned and is reporting to him.

"Brother, you have traveled thousands of miles and worked hard as an envoy to Zhao. First drink a bowl of kumiss, and then tell me about the situation in Luoyang." Chu Luo Khan said.

Chu Luo's guards took a leather pouch and poured the kumiss in the pouch onto the bowl. Ashina drank the bowl of kumiss, spilling the wine all over his sheepskin robe.

Ashina aggressively touched his lips and put his hands on his chest and said, "Reporting to Khan, Li Chongjiu has indeed ascended the throne in Luoyang. All the forces have defected to him, and the power of Zhao State has further strengthened."

Chu Luo Khan's complexion suddenly turned pale.

"Father Khan Mingjian, after the last battle of Youjing, the strength of the Zhao army has already shocked many leaders about the strength of the Han people. Now that the power of the Zhao state is growing further, we have to guard against it." Chu Luo's second son, Tuoshe Ashinasheer said.

Chuluo Khan looked at Ashinasheer and asked coldly: "You mean the same as those who opposed your father Khan, do you want to persuade me to move Khan's court to the north?"

"Father Khan, I don't think so. It's just that even if we don't move north, we still need to strengthen our defenses at the passes of Eyang Ridge. Father Khan sees this precipitous Yinshan Mountain as the best barrier Tengger has given us Turks. Stop Zhao Jun's cavalry from crossing over." Ashinasheer said.

Chuluo Khan hit Ashinasheer with a whip and said: "We Turks have always been the only ones who beat others, and there is no one who is worried about others coming to beat Turks. You are worthless and unworthy to be my son of Chuluo. "

Ashinasheer dared not speak any more.

Chuluo Khan roared: "Those who oppose this Khan are as short-sighted as rabbits. They all said that if they moved to Shengle City, Zhao Jun's cavalry could hit our Khan Court overnight, but why didn't they see it? Our Turkic iron cavalry can also attack the city of Youjing within one night! Are we more afraid of the Zhao people, or are the Zhao people more afraid of us?"

After hearing this, everyone thought that even if the Turkic cavalry attacked the city of Youjing, we would have nothing to do with the high walls of Youjing. However, if Zhao’s cavalry wanted to attack the Turks, it would be like a hungry wolf attacking without the protection of sheep pens and shepherd dogs. The sheep are generally easy.

But now everyone dare not say that, Ashina said aggressively: "Khan, She'er is just a child, don't be angry. Zhao Jun is now deploying troops in Luoyang, Hedong, and Henan to guard against Li Yuan and Du Fuwei , In Liaodong, Shandong they want to guard against the Goguryeo people, they are surrounded by enemies on all sides, where will there be soldiers and horses to attack our Khan court. Even if they attack our Khan court, in terms of field battles, we Turkic people, are we still afraid of the Han people?"

"Well said, they are descendants of our Turkic people." Chu Luo nodded in satisfaction, and then gave his son another look.

Zhao Deyan said: "But Khan, in the last battle of Youjing, Li Chongjiu's Zhao army not only has the strength of the Han infantry, but also has the appearance of our grassland cavalry. But as Mo He Dushe said, they The heavy troops are Li Tang, and Goguryeo is holding them back, so there is no spare power to attack the grassland, but we have to worry about it."

Hearing what Zhao Deyan said, Chu Luo Khan frowned. He was not a person who could not listen to objections. He killed people just to make others fear him, not to block the way of speech.

Regarding Zhao Deyan's opinion, Luo Khan was still cautious.Chu Luo looked at Zhao Deyan and said, "I admit that in the battle of Youjing, Zhao Jun's cavalry really surprised me. Li Chongjiu is more cunning than Li Yuan. In the past, I threatened Shi Dexi's department and forced them to let Li Chongjiu cut Ke Khan Khan, I thought Li Chongjiu would not agree because of his temper. As long as he refuses, we will have an excuse to attack Zhao Guo and wipe out Li Chongjiu's power. But I didn't expect that Li Chongjiu would give up Khan's position and win over the sudden Li, my final plan to send troops did not come true."

Speaking of this, Chu Luo paused and said: "However, if you think that Ben Khan is only because of Tuli and Ketun, the power of the Zhao Kingdom is growing step by step today, then you are wrong."

"Khan?" Zhao Deyan showed an unexpected expression.

Chu Luo turned his head and said to Zhao Deyan: "The reason why Ben Khan didn't send troops to attack Zhao State was because of Kedun and Tuli's obstruction, and because Ben Khan wanted to use Li Chongjiu to contain Li Tang."

Zhao Deyan said: "Khan, if it is to contain Li Tang, it is enough to weaken Li Tang, why support such a powerful opponent?"

Chu Luo showed hatred and said, "Big Zhao's power is beyond Ben Khan's expectations, but isn't Li Yuan also like this? When he sent Liu Wenjing to borrow troops from me, I thought he was just Liu Wuzhou, and Liang Shi was the same My character is at most a dog, who would have thought that Li Yuan is not a dog, but a tiger, or a lion, and he already has the power to challenge me today, do you think I can stop worrying about him?"

Zhao Deyan suddenly said: "I understand what Khan means, that is, since there is Li Yuan, it will be the same if there is another Li Chongjiu, right?"

Chu Luo nodded and said: "You are still so smart, yes, under the city of Youjing, I know that it is impossible to destroy Queen Zhao in a single battle, so I decided to negotiate peace with Zhao, because I know that once Zhao Guo negotiates peace with Ben Khan Finally, his next step must be to go to Luoyang to rescue Wang Shichong and prevent Luoyang from falling into Li Tang's hands, then he will definitely fight Li Tang. Ben Khan negotiated peace with him just to paralyze Li Chongjiu."

"Li Chongjiu and Li Yuan are both heroes of the Han people. In the words of your Han people, if two tigers fight, one will be injured."

Everyone immediately understood that Chu Luo had originally planned this.

Chu Luo said: "This time Li Chongjiu and Li Shimin were under the city of Luoyang. Ben Khan thought there was a decisive battle. No matter who wins or loses, Ben Khan will go south. If Li Tang wins, we will attack Li Tang and take Hexi. If Zhao Guo If we win, we will attack Youjing and seize Shanggu, it would be even better if there is no winner or loser."

Zhao Deyan nodded, this is the strategy that the Turks have always pursued to separate the strong from the weak and attack the strongest forces among the Han people to maintain the Turkic hegemony and make it impossible for them to threaten the grassland.

"My soldiers and horses have already been secretly mobilized. Just waiting for the final news of this battle, my 30 Turkic cavalry will go south, but I didn't expect that the two sides would end up like this. Li Chongjiu, Li Yuan, they are all as careful as foxes Li Yuan gave up Luoyang without a decisive battle with Li Chongjiu at all. I thought the peace talks would allow the two of them to relax their guard against me and let them just stare at each other."

Only then did everyone suddenly realize that this was the real reason why Chu Luo moved Khan Court to Sheng Le, and it was to shorten the attacking distance of Li Tang and Zhao Guo.It's just that he didn't expect the battle of Luoyang to end so hastily in the end. Chu Luo could only turn his head around and kill the dissidents in the tribe to consolidate Khan's position.

Ashinasheer asked Zhao Deyan: "I don't know the Han people well, so in Mr. Zhao's opinion, which one is stronger, Li Tang or Da Zhao? Which one will be my Turkic confidant in the future?"

Zhao Deyan thought for a while and said: "I am very troubled by the issue of expansion. At present, Li Tang has more troops, population, and territory than Zhao. Li Chongjiu has captured Luoyang and Hebei, and the hearts of the people have not yet been recovered , is not yet Li Tang's opponent, but if it takes a long time, Da Zhao has the convenience of Luoyang, the transportation of Yongji Canal and Tongji Canal, plus Li Chongjiu now has the Yang family, Lu family, Wang family, and Cui family. With the support of the gentry, the Hebei gentry can compete with Li Tang's Guanlong Clan, so in the end, the forces of Da Zhao will catch up."

Ashinasheer nodded after hearing this, and Ashina said aggressively: "If Mr. Zhao hadn't told us the situation of the Han people, we would really be blind. But now that we want to attack Zhao, Khan has to be scruples." As for Ke Dun's emotions, you must know that Ke Dun has a very close relationship with Da Zhao's Yang family and Xiao family recently, and I heard that there are people on both sides from time to time."

Khan Chuluo looked stern when he heard this, and said: "Ben Khan already knew about Ketun, it's nothing, but Ketun is my Turkic Ketun after all, and he knows that this is his real home. You don't have to worry about that." .”

Seeing that he was unhappy, Ashina hurriedly pleaded guilty.
