The Strongest Imperial Grandson of the Great Tang Dynasty

The nobles on the grassland felt that this Prince of the Tang Dynasty was different from others. Others continued to do the same thing. After the army of the Tang Dynasty left, they could dominate the grassland again, but this Prince of the Tang Dynasty What needs to be changed is the thinking of the people on the grassland, which has shaken their foundation.

For thousands of years, this tradition has continued on the grasslands. The master is the master and the slave is the slave. No one has any other ideas. Even if someone wants to stand up and challenge, it is only a matter of a few people. Now the people of the Tang Dynasty If these herdsmen really follow the example of what they preach about fair life, life will be difficult for them masters.

In the past, if anyone dared to promote heresy here, they would just raise their sabers and kill these people. But now they are all defeated, and there are not many soldiers in the tribe. Most of them The soldiers were all under the control of the Tang army, and some were sent directly to Chang'an City to be beheaded. Those were bloody heads, and no one thought that they would be the next batch.

Although they have realized that the Tang army may subvert their rule, or at least change their rule, none of these people dare to stand up and resist, mainly because the sword Li Xiang wielded a while ago was too harsh. Just cut the guts out of these people.

Now they hate Xue Yantuo to death. If we didn't follow Xue Yantuo's people and cause trouble, why would we do this?

Just as they were scolding Xue Yantuo Khan, in a tent further north, Xue Yantuo Khan sneezed heavily, wondering who was thinking about him.

This place is not far from what the Han people call the North Sea. You can imagine what the weather is like here. The temperature over Li Xiang's side is about minus fifteen degrees, while the temperature here has reached minus thirty degrees, which is almost It is said that you can freeze ice just by blowing your breath. There are no moving objects outside and the air is filled with mist.

Xue Yantuo Khan is in his own warm tent. His tent is different from others. It is made of precious furs. In addition, there are several braziers inside, so it is not cold to drink shirtless inside. The tents outside are The soldiers were in trouble, and many of them had frostbite on their bodies. But this time they were escaping from the south. Many things were lost on the way, and they had nothing extra after they came back.

The nomads in the north are so poor. They may only have one item in their possession. When you lose it, even if you return to the base camp, you can only endure it.

Take the many soldiers who went on an expedition. They went there wearing their fur clothes, but when they came back, they threw them everywhere. Now they have no winter clothes. Some people’s hands and feet are already black from the cold. The companions next to them are Sharpening the knife, I had to cut out these frozen black spots. If they were left on, they would spread to the entire body.

Every winter, their lives here are worse than those on the Turkic steppe, because their location is further north, which means they have less food stored, and more livestock here freeze to death. .

"Pour the wine, hurry up and pour me the wine."

Since Khan Xue Yantuo came back, he has been drinking in his tent. He couldn't believe his tragic defeat. Although he came back alive this time, he lost the most elite 20,000 troops on the Xiongnu prairie. Fortunately, all the tribes that he relies on for survival have been weakened. If he is the only one who suffers losses, then the leaders of each tribe will come to force him into the palace.

"Khan, you have drank a lot."

A beautiful woman next to her just said something, and then she was kicked to the side by Xue Yantuo Khan.

This is his most favored concubine, but at this moment he has lost his mind. No matter who doesn't let him drink, it is the one who killed his bodyguard a few days ago. People around him feel that Khan is a little bit irrational. .

"Even you think I can't do it, right? Isn't it just a defeat? Victory or defeat is a common thing for military officers. When spring comes next year, I will lead you to fight against Chang'an."

Khan could no longer stand still, but he kept pouring wine into his mouth. If he was not drunk, he would see the brothers who followed him on the expedition when he closed his eyes. He could only give himself to himself every day. Only when you are drunk will you not think of everything that happened that tragic day.

As for killing Chang'an, let alone the people here don't believe it, even the animals at the door don't believe it. Do you know how far away from Chang'an it is? Do you know how many Tang troops there are on this road?

Hearing that Khan fell down, the ministers outside breathed a sigh of relief. They were also ready to go back. Every day Khan would call them together, saying that he wanted to discuss a response plan, but there was nothing else to do besides drinking. nothing.

If there hadn't been this damn blizzard, they would still have been able to organize tens of thousands of troops. If they had carried out a few sneak attacks on the grassland, then they would have had a chance to win. After all, this is their hometown, the Tang Army. No matter how brave and skilled he is, he is still not suitable on the grassland.

But after this blizzard, all ideas are useless. People can't open their eyes in the blizzard, let alone attack others. If you attack others in such weather, you are probably on the road. Already frozen solid.

Xue Yantuo needed a victory so much. There was an atmosphere of defeat at the top and bottom. Many people had even said that when the Tang army came in the spring of next year, they would surrender first without hesitation and save their lives first. Let’s talk about your own life. As for the so-called honor of the grassland, it has nothing to do with them. People’s lives are gone, so why do you need honor?

"It's not good, Dahan. Something happened, Dahan."

Khan Xue Yantuo had already fallen asleep, but an urgent report came from outside. This voice raised everyone's hearts in their throats. Could it be that the Tang army is coming? Do the Tang troops still dare to attack in such weather?

"Are you desperate for your life? Don't you know where this is?"

Yesterday, someone broke in, so the Khan's bodyguard was slaughtered. Today, the bodyguard grabbed the man and he didn't want to be slaughtered again.

"Get out of here and report to the Great Khan that Lieutenant Zuo and his men have surrendered to the Tang Dynasty."

When these words were spoken, the Khan's personal guards unnaturally let go of their hands. This...
