Chapter 12 Chapter Twelve
Siran Khan also has a golden tent, which is larger than the famous golden tent of Defining Khan, and can accommodate more than 500 people. The top of Khan was awarded by Tian Khan, the great emperor of the Central Plains hundreds of years ago.
If the head of the defining Khan can be beheaded, the first thing is to bring the famous golden tent, even if it is a little smaller.This is Siran Khan's long-standing dream, and he firmly believes that it will become a reality in the not-too-distant future.
At this time, Siran Khan was lying in the sleeping tent, covered with a silk quilt from the Central Plains, Zhenzhu Ji's translucent body was leaning against his chest, stroking his beard with her slender hands, and gently brushing it with her teeth from time to time. bit his chest.The feeling of numbness and itchiness, mixed with the scent of chicken tongue from Zhenzhu Jitan's mouth, Siran Khan felt an indescribable comfort in his heart.He stretched out his arms to embrace Zhen Zhu Ji, Zhen Zhu Ji also smiled coquettishly, her thigh wrapped around his waist.Si Ran Khan was about to suppress it, but someone outside the tent whispered: "Khan."
I really don't know what to do!Siran Khan had already taken care of him, and no one was allowed to disturb him.He almost drew his knife and threw it outside.With the strength of his arm, this knife would definitely pass through the heart of the person outside the tent, but when he reached the gold wire knife handle, he still let go.
The man outside the tent is his Taiji Helian Tuli.
Taiji Yiguan is unique to the Pugu tribe, and it is actually the pronunciation of the word "Taishi" in the Central Plains.Taishi is the biggest official under Tian Khan in the Central Plains, and Pugubu named the most important minister Taiji, in fact, he secretly put himself in the same position as Tian Khan.Helian Tuli is Siran Khan's brother-in-law and his most trusted adviser. Don't say that Zhenzhuji just wraps her two white and tender thighs around her waist now, even if they are now one, as long as Helian Tuli If you come here, you can only separate immediately.
Because what Helian Tuli wanted to report must be extremely important.
Si Ran Khan draped the brocade robe indiscriminately, pulled off the silk quilt to cover Zhenzhu Ji's exposed body, and called, "Come in."
Helian Tuli walked in quickly with his head bowed.Although Si Ran Khan had a stunning beauty behind him who was obviously not wearing anything, Helen Tuli acted as if he hadn't seen anything.He bowed to Siran Khan, and said in a low voice: "Khan, there are envoys from Chu State."
This news made Si Ran Khan smile, "Are they here to surrender?"
"Back to sweat, no."
Si Ran Khan's face just seemed a lot harder.He shouted: "So they want to fight us?"
"Back to the sweat, no." Helian Tuli's face was still expressionless, as if carved out of wood, "They are here to present a birthday gift to Mrs. Zhenzhu."
Hearing this news, Si Ran Khan's face suddenly turned pale, even Zhenzhu Ji who was behind her poked her head out from under the silk quilt unconsciously.But Helian Tuli continued to speak flatly: "But the envoy reported that all the birthday gifts were robbed by the Achang tribe."
"what!"
Siran Khan suddenly jumped up from the silk quilt.He was only wearing a brocade robe, and when he jumped up, the belt of the robe fell apart, and he was facing Helen Tuli, which was very indecent, but he didn't notice it at all, and shouted angrily: "Halahu bastard has such a Wait for your guts! Order troops with me and catch him!" Helian Tuli frowned.Although Harahu is quite unruly, but this person has always been extremely loyal to Siran Khan. Many things that Siran Khan is not easy to do, it is logical for Hallahu to do them.This time it was probably a misunderstanding, and Harahu was so jealous that he didn't ask what to do when he saw so many gifts.It is unwise to kill a loyal subordinate just because of a misunderstanding.He said: "Great Khan, Harahu definitely doesn't know that it is for Da Khan, just send an envoy to ask him for it, and he will definitely hand it over."
Si Ran Khan's anger has also subsided a little.Helian Tuli's words are always reasonable, he nodded and said: "Yes. First entertain the envoys of Chu State, forgive Harahu for not daring to take it privately." So Helian Tuli went to arrange arrangements and received the envoys the next day .
The envoy sent by Chu State was named Situ Yu, who was very proficient in the native language of the Western Plains, and was extremely humble in front of Siran Khan.This man can speak eloquently, Si Ran Khan talked with him, and he was very happy. He felt that the state of Chu was really sincere, and Harahu was too reckless. Apologize.
Just as he was about to enter Hong Kong, a servant suddenly came in from under the tent and said, "Khan, all the members of the Achang tribe have also come."
Yiduchi is Harahu's cousin and a warrior from the Achang tribe. It's just that the envoys came so soon after they were dispatched. It must be that Harahu found out that he had robbed the gift for the Great Khan by mistake. Send my cousin to make amends.Si Ran Khan was in a good mood, and said with a smile, "Let him in." Ask Yiduchi to make an apology to Situ Yu, and then win over Ha Lahu, and give him some of the gifts, so that both parties can make a deal Taiwan, Harahu, a loyal subordinate, will not be eccentric.
Just as he was thinking well, he snatched a person from outside the tent, rushed into the golden tent, knelt down and cried loudly, "Khan!"
Yiduchi was covered in blood, and his hair was loose.Si Ran Khan didn't expect him to look like this, he was taken aback and said: "Yiduchi, what's going on?"
Yiduchi cried: "Khan, my king was attacked by the Wude camp, and all the tribes were wiped out! Khan, please take revenge for the Achang tribe!"
He just cried a few times, but out of the corner of his eyes, he saw a few people from the Central Plains sitting beside him, they were the businessmen who escaped during the robbery during the day.He was stunned, and thought: These people also know Da Khan?Did they come to cry first?
Before he could say anything, Situ Yu stood up and said, "Khan, it was this person who robbed us!"
Si Ran Khan snorted, and shouted: "Yiduchi, did you snatch Mr. Situ's things?"
Yiduchi felt very displeased when he heard Siran Khan's words, and felt even more disturbed, and shouted: "Khan, we didn't know about it at the time. But these people are not businessmen, they are people from Wudeying!"
Si Ran Khan snorted again: "Mr. Situ is of course from the Wude Camp. Where is Harahu? Is he still alive?"
The Achang Department was unexpectedly attacked by the Wude Battalion!This news stunned Siran Khan for a moment.The Achang tribe is the strongest and most loyal of the small tribes attached to the Pugu tribe. Although he knew that Harahu had robbed him of the gift, he was very dissatisfied, but the Achang tribe was attacked and wiped out, which made him even more astonished. .
Yiduchi cried: "My king was killed by the Wude camp, and most of the tribe was slaughtered. The villain only brought some remnants here. Great Khan, please make the decision for the Achang tribe."
Si Ran Khan was confused for a while, and couldn't help but look at Helen Tuli on the side.Helen Tuli knew that Da Khan was going to show up on his own, so he stepped out and said, "Khan, this fact is sudden, please ask Yiduchi to explain the cause and effect first."
Situ Yu suddenly raised his voice: "Khan, the villain knows some reasons for this matter, let the villain talk about it."
Helian Tuli glanced at Situ Yu.For a moment, his eyes were extremely sharp, but before he could say anything, Siran Khan said: "Okay."
Situ Yu said: "At that time, I was escorting the gift to the place where the Great Khan was stationed. I thought that the Great Khan would be safe and sound along the way. Even if there was a misunderstanding, just explain that the gift was for the Great Khan, and it would be safe. People dare to keep it difficult."
Si Ran Khan nodded and said, "Exactly." Situ Yu's words sounded very comfortable, but they were also true.This is the sphere of influence of Siran Khan. Of course, those small groups are plundering, but even if they had the guts, they would not dare to snatch the things of Siran Khan.
Situ Yu waited for Siran Khan to nod his head, and then said in a loud voice: "But the gift my Marshal gave to Da Khan is quite precious, and there must be no mistakes, so the Marshal asked the villain to guarantee it with his head. The villain on the road It is difficult and dangerous, in case something changes, even relying on the power of the Great Khan, it will not be able to quench the near thirst, so my commander-in-chief gave me a ride. When I was about to pass by the Achang tribe, my commander knew that the Achang tribe was originally the Great Khan Faithful subordinates will definitely be fine, but sending gifts and escorting them with heavy troops will make the Khan suspicious, so at that time the commander broke up with us and asked me to come by myself."
Siran Khan nodded again.Situ Yu's words were reasonable and impeccable.He said, "Then how could something happen?"
"At that time, I was going to pass Achang's department. It was a villain's carelessness. I didn't have any extra people on hand to report first. I thought it would be too late when I encountered it. Unexpectedly, after walking for a while, I saw this general leading thousands of subordinates, and suddenly galloped away. Come to attack. At that time, the general was also on the spot, and I yelled a few words at that time, did you hear it?"
Situ Yu's Xiyuan dialect is very fluent, and Yi Duchi can hear it clearly.Listening to Situ Yu mentioning that he had yelled a few words when they met each other, he said, "At that time, I heard you yelling 'Siran Khan' a few times..."
Situ Yu took the lead and said: "Exactly. I was afraid that you might misunderstand, so I explained first, but who knew that you didn't listen at all, and swung a knife to kill me. At this time, I have no choice but to pull my horse and run away, that's right." no?"
Also Chi secretly complained.At that time, he did hear Situ Yu call "Siran Khan" a few times, but he was extremely panicked. He heard that the other party had discovered that the Iron Tiger Army had killed him, and was calling that it was Siran Khan. of people.Although the Achang tribe and the Pugu tribe are two tribes, they belong to the same tribe and wear the same clothes. What's more, the Achang tribe is attached to Siran Khan, and the other party is not wrong to think that he is a member of Siran Khan.He nodded and shouted, "It's just..."
Situ Yu said again: "My commander did not go far at that time. After I caught up with him and reported him, the commander was extremely frightened. The Great Khan was extremely powerful in the Western Plains. When we came to the Western Plains from the Kingdom of Chu, it was under the shadow of the Great Khan. I can stand on my feet. These gifts are to celebrate Mrs. Zhenzhu’s birthday, and I want to be rewarded by the Khan, so that my troops can survive the cold winter. Many of them are obtained by the commander selling his private property. If It’s gone, it’s difficult for our Chu State to gain a foothold in Xiyuan. Therefore, the commander-in-chief ordered me to come and explain to the Great Khan immediately, and he led the army to get the gift back. But I don’t know why there was a war, and there was a battle between soldiers?”
When Yi Duchi heard what he said that Wude Ying came to ask for gifts, he almost spit out a mouthful of blood.At that time, it changed suddenly. As soon as the Wude Camp arrived, they killed people and set fire to them. There was no such thing as explaining the reason or asking for gifts.But even if he denied it, he was eating meat, watching dances and listening to songs by the fire with Harahu at that time, Wu Deying insisted that he had already explained it, and now there is no proof.Yiduchi is not a very quick-witted person, but at this moment, he feels that the Achang tribe has fallen into a well-prepared trap, and even the herdsman who said that a businessman passed by is most likely arranged by Wudeying of.Although he is from Xiyuan, Situ Yu can speak eloquently, even more fluently than him. Seeing Situ Yu talking more and more vigorously, it seemed that he was saying that Harahu would not return the gift when he asked for it in Wude Camp. After causing a catastrophe, Siran Khan's face became darker and darker, and when he saw himself, he had no good intentions at all.His heart grew cold, he suddenly drew out his knife and cursed: "You barbarian from the Central Plains!"
Although he was injured, but the injury is not too serious, the courage is still there.Of course he couldn't carry long soldiers in the Golden Tent of Khan, he only held a waist knife in his hand, but it was still very quick to draw the knife.Unexpectedly, just as the saber was about to be swung out, the two people around Situ Yu suddenly took a step forward and drew their swords from their waists at the same time.The swords used by these two people are very different from those used by the people of Xiyuan, they are thin and long, they draw out the two swords at the same time, and at the same time, Zai Yidu bares his shoulders a little, and puts the sword back into the sheath at the same time.Yidu Chi's shoulders were hit, although the injuries were not serious, but there were two more wounds on his shoulders, he couldn't hold the waist knife, and the waist knife fell to the ground with a "dang".
When Yiduchi drew his sword, Situ Yu's face also changed drastically. After the two followers had repelled Yiduchi, he was still trembling all over, and said in a trembling voice: "Khan, how dare this person commit murder in the golden tent?" !” Although the voice trembled, it was smooth and undiminished.
Yidu drew his sword red, Siran Khan finally couldn't bear his anger.He stood up from his seat and shouted sharply: "Come on, drag Yiduchi out!" A warrior was waiting to come up and drag Yiduchi away, but Helian Tuli turned around and said, "Wait a minute, Da Khan, Yiduchi is a rough man, although he has faults, but he knew the situation best at that time, let him finish everything before making a decision." He walked up to Yiduchi, helped him up, and He said: "Yiduchi, you can tell."
As soon as Helen Tuli's words came out, Situ Yu's eyes suddenly flashed a gleam of light very quickly.
If Helian Tuli is not removed, Si Ran is hard to beat!
At this time, Situ Yu only had this sentence in his mind.So far, the commander-in-chief and his own plan have been meticulously planned, and there is no difference. Only Helian Tuli is obviously a variable.According to his original estimation, at this point, Siran Khan's anger has already exploded, and the person who cried to Siran Khan will definitely be dragged out and beheaded. This plan has been successful so far.Unexpectedly, Helen Tuli is still quite sober at this time, this person is indeed difficult to deal with.
Xiyuan Yinghao, generally cannot be underestimated...
Fortunately, they also prevented such an accident at that time, and this strategy is still incomplete.Next, even if Helian Tuli is sober again, he will still be involved.
Situ Yu's heart was already filled with happiness, but his face was still full of fear, and he raised his voice and said: "Helian Taiji's words are very kind. Big Khan, if the matter is not clear, we will not be able to show our hearts to the Great Khan in vain. Please forgive him for a moment, and let him finish the matter. The Khan is wise and mighty, and the villain forgives him for not daring to turn black and white in front of the Khan."
Situ Yu flattered one after another, and there was no trace to be found. Si Ran Khan had completely believed Situ Yu's words.However, Situ Yu was still willing to confront Yiduchi, and he couldn't bear to brush his wishes.He waved his hand and shouted: "Take off his waist knife too. Yiduchi, what do you think happened at that time?"
Yidu couldn't help crying in his heart, thinking: what else was there at that time?The Wude Camp came suddenly, and it was clear that it was a trap for us to take advantage of!However, Situ Yu has already filled in these loopholes before, if he still wants to say that their surprise attack came so quickly, there must be a fraud in it, and even if he is not very smart, he knows that he can't say it, but Si Ran can't say it. Khan felt like he was trying to argue.The more he thought about it, the more he didn't know how to explain. Suddenly he kowtowed on the ground and cried, "Khan, there are more than 10,000 people in my Achang tribe, but only a thousand people escaped now. Even if Wudeying wants to get back Gift, why do they want to be so cruel?"
Situ Yu's eyes flashed again.If Yiduchi thought of this, he would have said it from the beginning, but he didn't say it until now, then there can only be one reason: someone taught him.Who else could be this person besides Helian Tuli?
Although Situ Yu didn't know how Helian Tuli taught Yi Duchi to say this in such an urgent situation, he was obviously aware of the plan he and Xue Shuai had made, but under their seamless arrangement, this Helian Tuli, who was extremely alert, still couldn't find any flaws.It's just that even if he couldn't find a flaw, he still used Yiduchi to fight back.
If you don't get rid of this person, you will be hard to beat!
This is the second time Situ Yu has thought this way.However, although there is absolutely no way to get rid of Helen Tuli at the moment, it is not difficult to defuse his attack.Because, even though they didn't expect the variable Helian Tuli, they still prepared countermeasures to deal with such unexpected events.
And this will be the final blow to the Achang Department.
At this moment, Situ Yu admired Xue Tingxuan even more.This last blow was exactly prepared by Xue Tingxuan.In their plan, Siran Khan was so provoked that he would definitely order to kill the Achang tribe.If this order is still not issued, it means that his wisdom is higher than the prior estimate.
No matter how overestimated the enemy is, it is not excessive.Even if Si Ran Khan had issued the order to slaughter the Achang tribe by this time, the subsequent preparations would appear to be a little too forceful, but since the Achang tribe has been slaughtered, it doesn't matter how hard you use it.If Si Ran Khan still did not issue the massacre order, after this final blow, he would suffer even greater losses.
Situ Yu took a step forward and said, "Khan, the villain really doesn't know about this matter, so I dare not make random guesses."
Si Ran Khan said: "Is this so unclear?"
Situ Yu said seriously: "Of course not. This matter should be revealed immediately."
Si Ran Khan was taken aback, "Why?"
"My commander-in-chief also told me in a hurry that if the Khan and Tianwei can't overwhelm the Achang tribe, a battle is inevitable. If the war really breaks out, my commander-in-chief will know that he is overstepping, and he will personally report The Great Khan explained and made amends."
As soon as these words came out, even Helian Tuli's expression changed.The relationship between the Pugu tribe and the Wude camp is not good, not to mention that when something like this happened, the Achang tribe, which belonged to the same clan as the Pugu tribe, was exterminated, and Xue Tingxuan, the commander of the Wude camp, came here lightly.If at this time, Siran Khan became murderous and prepared to take this opportunity to eliminate this hidden danger, the Wude Camp would immediately be destroyed after the Achang tribe.
Could Xue Tingxuan really be so ignorant?
Helen Tuli was stunned.He had already guessed that the Achang tribe had fallen into the plan of the Wude Camp. This tribe, which only knew how to run wild in the Western Plains with brute force, would be exterminated in the face of wise tactics, or even he couldn't explain why.But this final change has shaken his guess. Now, it seems that Wude Ying really has the heart to make friends with Pugu, so he desperately came to explain?Because once the Pugu Department and the Wude Camp are at odds and fight immediately, the Wude Camp will not be able to withstand the full attack of the Pugu Department.
At this time, there was a commotion from far away, Si Ran Khan looked over, and was about to be investigated, when another soldier from the Pugu Department rushed in and said, "I am reporting to you, General Xue Tingxuan of Chu State, please see me."
It's really here!Siran Khan's heart finally felt fluctuated.He hasn't met Xue Tingxuan yet, he only knows that this lonely minister of the Central Plains with the title of "One-armed Spear" is a generation with extraordinary force.Like other tribes in the Western Plains, the Pugu tribe respects heroes the most. Even if Xue Tingxuan is an enemy, they still admit that he is a hero.Si Ran Khan said: "Get up and welcome Marshal Xue!"
Siran Khan's throne is actually a chariot that seats eight people.Batiao, a shaved-haired burly man with a cowhide band around his upper body, raised his chariot, and everyone from Helian Tuli followed him out, and Yiduchi, who had been stripped of all his weapons, was also escorted out.
As soon as they got outside, the commotion became louder, most of them were crying, and it was the remnants of Achang who fled here with Yiduchi.There are only about a thousand people left in Achang's remnants, most of them are women and children. Although these people can't go to battle, they are very fierce when they curse, and they blurt out a series of poisonous words.Fortunately, even though Xue Tingxuan could understand some Xiyuan dialect, those curses from the heavily accented Achang people were completely incomprehensible and turned a deaf ear.He led seven people forward on horseback. These seven young and strong men wore the same clothes and held the same golden gun in their hands. Three carts followed behind them.
Marshal Wudeying's personal bodyguard was originally Wujianzhan.But in the battle of Langyue Province, the five swords were completely lost, so Xue Tingxuan followed the old practice of the Zhao Empire and selected seven young masters with outstanding spear skills to form this golden spear squad.All of these seven people have extraordinary spear skills, and although they are young and handsome, although the remnants of the Achang tribe are vicious on the side, many girls from the Pugu tribe see it affectionately. They are unbelievably cute. Compared with them, the young people of this clan are so rustic that they are completely incomprehensible.
Xue Tingxuan got up in front of Khan Desiran's chariot, and suddenly got off his horse.He got off the horse, and the seven golden gun squads behind him also jumped off the horse at the same time, their postures were beautiful and uniform, and the seven golden guns were inserted into the ground at the same time, forming a neat barrier.Xue Tingxuan's hand was useless, but when he got off the horse, he was no different from others.Although his appearance is not as handsome as that of the Golden Spear Class, there is a hint of a majestic and heroic spirit in his gestures.And his mount is a tall white horse, and it is very handsome. Although Pugubu also has many good horses, I am afraid that none of them can match Xue Tingxuan's mount.
He got off his horse, and suddenly knelt down on one leg in front of Siran Khan's chariot, and said loudly: "Big Khan, the young general Xue Tingxuan of Chu State is polite."
As soon as he opened his mouth, the seven golden gun squads behind him also shouted loudly: "Big Khan Wanan."
This is the well-practiced Xiyuan dialect.Although they can't speak the native language of Xiyuan, it is of course easy to practice this sentence.Si Ran Khan did not expect that Xue Tingxuan would make such a big gift to him. The heroes on the grassland only kneel to the sky, kneel to the ground, and kneel to their parents in the middle, or some heroes would kneel to their wives at home, but Xue Tingxuan in front of Pugubu Bowing the knee to oneself is equivalent to openly expressing the intention of attaching to the Pugu Ministry.He couldn't help looking over the judge, turned over and jumped off the seat, went forward and grabbed Xue Tingxuan's arm, and shouted: "Marshal Xue, please get up."
There is a messenger on the side.Xue Tingxuan stood up and said: "Great Khan, our state of Chu wants to present a birthday gift to Mrs. Zhenzhu as a show of respect, but the Harahu of the Achang tribe actually ignores the power of Khan Tianwei and wants to kill us instead. The young general was helpless and hastily I didn't have time to ask for instructions, so I culled this beast on behalf of the Great Khan, and I also ask the Great Khan to forgive me."
Xue Tingxuan's words were interpreted by officials, the meaning remained the same, but the tone was more submissive.But Si Ran Khan felt that Xue Tingxuan's tone of humility without losing his status was more appetizing. The grassland tribes respected heroes, and if the other party was blindly humble, they would be looked down upon instead.He patted Xue Tingxuan on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Marshal Xue, although you are a bit late, it is good that you are here."
Xue Tingxuan said: "I learned that all the 1,700 members of my army have arrived this time, but I was afraid of disturbing the Khan, so the young general asked Old General Chen to lead a team to wait outside. Achang's rebel thief Hara The head of the tiger, as well as the weapons at hand, are here, dedicated to the Great Khan, but the birthday gift to be dedicated to Mrs. Zhenzhu was destroyed by the Halahu, and I ask the Great Khan to forgive me."
Iron wares in Xiyuan are not easy to come by, so iron wares are quite expensive.The weapon that Harahu took advantage of was an iron prod that weighed more than 70 jin. Not to mention that it was used by Harahu, the 70 jin of iron alone was worth a lot.According to the custom in Xiyuan, whoever wins a duel, the loser's horses and battle equipment will belong to the winner.Unexpectedly, Xue Tingxuan would dedicate all of these to himself, and he "forgives sins" one by one, which is even more obedient.Surprised and delighted, Si Ran Khan nodded and said in a loud voice: "Marshal Xue, Harahu doesn't know what's good and what's wrong, he's to blame, you've done a good job."
As soon as these words came out, Yiduchi, who was being escorted by the soldiers, let out a desperate scream, and the women and children of the Achang nationality also cried out almost at the same time.Si Ran Khan frowned, and said sharply: "Ah Chang up and down, everyone haha!"
With this order, there were even more screams in the crying.There are not many ironware in Xiyuan, and many lower-level soldiers use big wooden sticks.When these wooden sticks were beaten, some Achang women and children's brains burst, but they were still alive for a while, only crying.Xue Tingxuan looked at it, with a trace of unbearable expression on his face, and suddenly he knelt down to Si Ran Khan and said, "Da Khan, Ting Xuan has a heartless request, and I hope Da Khan will grant it."
Si Ran Khan was startled and said: "Marshal Xue, please tell me."
"These remnants of Achang are really not guilty of certain death. Wouldn't it be good to ask the Great Khan to lower them into slaves and wait for their use?"
Siran Khan's heart skipped a beat.Xue Tingxuan's suggestion is indeed good. Most of these remnants of Achang are women and children. They are raised in the tribe and let them do some rough and tiring work like cattle and horses. Young women can also be used for sex. They are all hala.He looked at Helian Tuli and thought: Tuli has never been willing to kill people, and most likely he would agree.Just as he was about to issue an order, Helian Tuli stepped forward and said, "Great Khan, Marshal Xue is indeed compassionate, but since the Achang tribe has offended Great Khan Tianwei, they cannot stay!"
Si Ran Khan did not expect that Helian Tuli would try his best to advocate the extermination of the Achang tribe this time.Anyway, the massacre order has been issued, and there are probably not many left to stop now, he nodded and said: "Xue Tingxuan, don't worry about these bastards. Come on, come and drink in my golden tent, a man who is not drunk is not a good man!"
Xue Tingxuan is very appetizing to him, and if he can deal with the Achang tribe, he must be more powerful than Harahu, who can only fight bravely.At this time, Si Ran Khan had already outlined a prospect of driving Wudeying to compete with Defining Khan, but Helian Tuli suddenly said: "Khan, Marshal Xue has been fighting all the way, and it has been extremely hard. The army is exhausted. Today is not a day for drinking, anyway, Mr. Situ is staying in our department, so please ask Marshal Xue to choose another day, so that Tuli and I can get closer to Marshal Xue."
Si Ran Khan's heart skipped a beat.Helian Tuli was obviously trying to prevent himself from getting too close to Xue Tingxuan, could it be that Xue Tingxuan had the intention of assassinating?But just now he helped him up by himself, if Xue Tingxuan wanted to assassinate him, he would be sure in one strike.He couldn't think of why Helian Tuli had to make troubles, but this brother-in-law's knowledge is far higher than his own, and he also knew that what Tuli heard was probably correct, but he slapped Xue Tingxuan on the shoulder heavily, and said with a smile: "Since Marshal Xue left the country It's far away, so let's go back sooner."
But Xue Tingxuan didn't insist, just saluted again, and said: "Thank you, Great Khan, for your kindness. Come here, and send me the gift list."
This gift is really not light, dozens of bolts of silk and satin of various colors, dozens of sets of multicolored fine porcelain, and a large box of exquisite jewelry.This gift is not shabby no matter it is given to anyone in Xiyuan. Si Ran Khan did not expect that the Wude Camp, which has not established a long time in Xiyuan, has such savings, so he can't help but look at Xue Tingxuan from the bottom of his heart.He asked his servants to take the gift list, and said with a smile: "Marshal Xue, but is it because there are not enough livestock this winter?"
Xue Tingxuan saluted and said: "The Great Khan is wise, I will ask the Great Khan to reward a hundred cows for spring plowing, and I will return them in full in the coming year. I also ask the Great Khan for permission."
After listening to Tong Shi's interpretation, Siran Khan did not expect that Xue Tingxuan just wanted to borrow a hundred cows. With so many gifts, it is more than enough to buy a hundred cows. It seems that Xue Tingxuan still uses this as a pretext to please himself, and this is also It shows that Wudeying really bowed to the Pugu Ministry.He laughed for a while, and said: "This matter is easy to handle, let Mr. Situ handle it. Someone, bring me my golden knife."
Someone nearby brought a golden knife.This knife is very beautifully cast, with a skull on the handle.Si Ran Khan handed the golden knife over and said: "This knife is my favorite, Marshal Xue, you are a good man, I will give it to you."
Xue Tingxuan took the golden knife, bowed deeply and said, "Thank you, Great Khan, for giving me the knife."
Si Ran Khan was still full of ideas, and wanted to give some other small gifts, Hebian Tuli suddenly said: "Khan, it's very cold outside, let me take Marshal Xue back."
Si Ran Khan was actually anxious to appreciate these gifts, so he said casually: "Okay, Tuli, you can do it."
He was sitting and carrying the chariot back to the tent, but Helian Tuli jumped on the horse and said with a smile, "Marshal Xue, please."
Xue Tingxuan's brows twitched suddenly.Because what Helian Tuli said at this time was actually the standard Central Plains dialect.Situ Yu speaks Xiyuan dialect very well, regardless of his appearance, others would not be able to tell that Situ Yu is from the Central Plains, and Helian Tuli's Central Plains dialect has the same effect.But Xue Tingxuan's strangeness only happened for a moment, and he immediately said seriously: "Thank you, Heliantaiji."
Chen Zhong led more than a thousand people outside Lixu immediately, seeing Xue Tingxuan finally came out safely, he let out a long breath.When Xue Tingxuan said that he wanted to escort the presents in person, Chen Zhong was shocked, he refused in every possible way, he said that he would go by himself, the commander-in-chief must command the whole army, he cannot go to dangerous places lightly.But Xue Tingxuan said that he was not going here to fight, but to persuade Si Ran Khan with his words, Chen Zhong felt that he was clumsy in tongues, this task was impossible, so he could only listen to Xue Tingxuan's orders.He waited here for a long time, even though Xue Tingxuan said in advance that if there is any change, there will definitely be shouts of killing, and the wind knife will come to notify immediately at that time, so far no wind knife has come flying over, and the screams are only short. For a short moment, the voice was probably a woman, and of course it couldn't be Xue Tingxuan.But Chen Zhong was still worried, worried that Siran Khan would suddenly change his face and wanted to eliminate the Wude Camp in one fell swoop. Now the strength of the Wude Camp is basically here. Even though there are some small artillery, Siran Khan has 30,000 people, three The warriors of Wan Pu Gubu rushed forward suddenly, and these thousand people were destined to die.He waited for a long time, just when he was anxious and suspicious, seeing Xue Tingxuan came back, of course he was overjoyed, he went forward and said loudly: "Tingxuan."
Helen Tuli saw a white-bearded veteran coming out to welcome him. Although this veteran was old, he was in good spirits, and his limbs seemed to have inexhaustible strength.He smiled and said, "This one must be Mr. Chen Zhongchen, the famous iron blade from Wude Camp?"
When Chen Zhong saw a barbarian following him, he didn't take it seriously. When the barbarian spoke with a standard Central Plains accent, he was slightly surprised, and said, "It's the old man. May I ask this gentleman to respect you?" Last name."
Helian Tuli said: "My surname is Helian, and the cursive character is Tuli. The people from the village outside Huawai made old General Chen laugh."
Helian Tuli's face was completely barbaric, but his conversation was very elegant and elegant. Chen Zhong was even more surprised, and saluted immediately: "Mr. Helian invited."
Helian Tuli smiled slightly, and said to Xue Tingxuan: "Marshal Xue, send you off for thousands of miles, and we must say goodbye. Since Old General Chen is here to meet you, then Tuli will bid farewell."
Xue Tingxuan also smiled lightly and said, "Helian Taiji please go ahead."
Helian Tuli glanced at Chen Zhong behind him, and the extremely well-organized Wudeying soldiers behind Chen Zhong, and sighed: "With such a strong army, it is indeed possible to run rampant in the Western Plains." He suddenly smiled again: "Marshal Xue, Tuli is alone here, and I'm a little scared in my heart. If Marshal Xue wants to keep me, then Tuli can only be captured without a fight."
Xue Tingxuan just smiled politely and said: "Helian Taiji is making fun of you, please."
Helian Tuli took another look, turned around and left.When Tuli was far away, Chen Zhong rode forward and whispered: "Tingxuan, this barbarian seems to want you to catch him."
Xue Tingxuan looked at Helen Tuli's back, the corners of his mouth twitched suddenly, and said softly: "He's got that idea. If I can't hold back, killing him here, it's in his favor."
Chen Zhong was startled, and said: "Why? Does Mr. Tuli not want to live?"
"He really has such a heart." Xue Tingxuan sighed suddenly, and said in a low voice, "I didn't expect that there would be such a loyal and discerning person in the Pugu Department. Si Ran Khan is more difficult to deal with than I expected."
In his conception, destroy the Pugu tribe, and then turn against the Ashina tribe. If you are lucky, you can unify the Western Plains within 20 years.However, there is Ashina Baku in the Ashina tribe, and Helian Tuli in the Pugu tribe, both of whom are extremely difficult to deal with. It seems that Xiyuan will still be a tripartite force in the past twenty years.
However, they are not young anymore, and they still have a future.This is his greatest advantage, and it will also be his ultimate advantage.
Xue Tingxuan finally laughed.
When Xue Tingxuan finally smiled and turned to leave with Chen Zhong and Wu Deying, Helian Tuli looked back from afar.
It was only the first meeting with Xue Tingxuan, but this first meeting made him realize that this young Marshal of Wudeying has a well-deserved name and is a powerful enemy that he has only seen in his life.
God, why did you send down such a magic star to Xiyuan?
Helian Tuli's heart was pierced like a knife.When Siran Khan had a good impression of Xue Tingxuan, he knew that he had lost the opportunity.Even if the Pugu Department has 30,000 troops, it is not easy to deal with these more than 1,000 extremely well-organized soldiers, and Xue Tingxuan dared to come here lightly, so he must be prepared for the same.If you go to war now regardless of everything, the best result is that both sides will suffer, and the worst result is that the Wudeying will be defeated by the weak and defeat the strong.But even with the best outcome, it will be Ashina who will gain.At that time, under the blow of Ashina's department, the Pugu department will definitely be uprooted.
Just now, he deliberately showed some sharpness, and used words to lure Xue Tingxuan to kill him.Now that they are fledgling, Da Khan can see Xue Tingxuan's true face in time, and things can still turn for the better.However, Xue Tingxuan's composure shattered his plan of remonstrance, but it also made him feel the fear of the enemy in front of him even more.
In the entire Western Plains, perhaps he was the only one who saw the danger of this disabled Central Plains young general.However, the current competition is only the beginning after all, and it is not necessarily a bad thing to keep the force of Wudeying.He has seen Xue Tingxuan's true face clearly, so if this hidden enemy, as he expected, formed an alliance with Ashina, the most unlucky of the three parties would be Ashina.Because they must never have imagined that Xue Tingxuan's number one enemy was actually them.If it can be mastered well, the Pugu Department may get the greatest benefit from it.
Back at Pugubu's station, Helen Tuli also felt beaming.Zhenzhuji's birthday is coming soon, and a grand celebration was planned, but Wudeying icing on the cake sent this generous gift. With little property, many respectable people also got a piece of silk material.
However, the remaining bodies of the Achang tribe who were killed were still there, and some soldiers were throwing the bodies of men, women, children, and children into carts, preparing to burn them in a deserted place.Helen Tuli looked at the corpses, feeling an indescribable feeling in his heart.
God, bless these innocent people.我突利让你们逃脱了最悲惨的命运，你们死后，也该感谢我。
他到了思然可汗寝帐前，便听得里面传来嘻笑之声。在帐门口通报了一声，便听得思然可汗道：“突利，快快进来。”
挑帘进去，却见思然可汗穿上了一件簇新的大红缎袍，而真珠姬身上则披上了一条轻薄的湖水色鲛绡长裙。这身长裙几如烟云，隐隐露出真珠姬一身雪白柔嫩的肌肤，看起来美妙无比，而她胸前还挂了一串圆润无比的珍珠项链，随着起舞，发出悦耳的轻轻撞击声，直如玉骨珊珊，更显得她这“真珠姬”的名字取得妙不可言。思然可汗一边击节赞叹，一边道：“突利，中原匠人的手艺当真名不虚传，比我们的衣工做得太好了。下一回薛元帅过来，我要他带个高手衣工来，再给我做一套袍子，你和阿佳也做一套。”那些礼物中有几套成衣，别的却是料子，思然可汗见这成衣做得竟是如此精致，同样衣料，族中巧手衣工做成衣袍，与之真不啻天壤。阿佳是思然可汗御妹，赫连突利的妻子，虽不好看，但秉性却与思然可汗大不相同，十分温柔，与赫连突利琴瑟和谐。
赫连突利苦笑了一下，小声道：“大汗，那个司徒先生已经安置歇息了吧？”
思然可汗道：“是啊。”他见赫连突利脸色大为异样，也小声道：“有什么不对吗？”
“大汗觉得，那薛庭轩是什么样一个人？”
思然可汗道：“此人年轻虽轻，一只手也残了，却的是个英雄。我想问问他有没有妻室，要没有最好，真有了，宝美给他做次妻也行。”
思然可汗有一正二侧三个妻子，最得宠的是真珠姬。正妻年纪大了，平常也不厮混在一起，不过这正妻生的女儿宝美却是思然可汗最为喜爱的掌上明珠，今年十七岁，正值招婿的年纪。一看到薛庭轩，思然可汗就觉得此人大有气概，如果成为自己的女婿，那么仆固部的势必将一跃超过阿史那部。他对亲属向来十分信任，那些亲属也兢兢业业为他做事，以至于思然可汗觉得只消一个人成为他的亲属，就一定绝对值得信任了。
赫连突利更是苦笑。他把声音压得更低些，道：“大汗，此人不是个笼络得住的人物，对他绝不能相信。阿昌部无疑是中了他们的圈套，结果被他们彻底消灭，而我们还不得不把他们当好人。”
思然可汗一怔，道：“哈拉虎这混蛋乱抢东西，还不肯还，这脾气你不是不知道。被薛元帅他们杀了也就杀了，一个小族而已，至于如此吗？”
“阿昌部对我们仆固部向来忠顺，虽然他们在外面名声很臭，连带着一些小部族对我们都不服，所以他们被灭亦不足惜，只是这薛庭轩计不仅于此。现在这样子，灭掉阿昌部的名声可是我们在担着，他们五德营是为了夺回自己的东西，而且还曾经为阿昌残部请命，那些小部落在仆固部与五德营之间，因此事会多少偏向五德营一点。”
此时思然可汗也回过味来了。这一次没来由地担起了一个把一向忠顺自己的小部灭族的罪名，的确有点莫名其妙。固然阿昌部抢掠成性，名声太坏，那些受阿昌部欺凌过的部族也可能会投向仆固部，然而与阿昌部实力相当的附属部落却也有可能因此事而离心。思然可汗虽然不是个明察秋毫之人，却很能听取赫连突利的真知灼见。他道：“那么当时你为什么还要将阿昌部灭族？”
赫连突利叹了口气道：“事已至此，阿昌部已然将我们当成了仇敌。薛庭轩说要饶恕他们，你当他真个是恻隐之心？这些阿昌部妇孺做了奴隶，定然会受尽折磨，而他们也定然会想尽办法来报复我们。留他们下来，等如给我们埋下了一个大大的隐患，这才是薛庭轩的真正用意。”
听了赫连突利的话，思然可汗直如冷水浇头。他挥了挥手，让真珠姬不要跳舞了，去后帐歇息。等真珠姬噘着嘴走了，思然可汗道：“那为什么当时你为何不把他留下？那时他才几个人，在我们族中，就算他有通天的本事都已不行了。”
赫连突利道：“当时他那七个随从你难道没发现个个都是了不得的勇士吗？何况他那匹白马，那是天马啊。当时我们向他下手，他定然能安全脱身，而就在外面，有一千多精兵严阵以待，我们冒冒失失冲上去，只是白白送死。到时仆固部背信弃义，五德营不得不对我们下手。小部族当然弃我族而去，而他们有阿史那部做同盟，到时仆固部被连根拔起，阿史那部……”
说到这里，思然可汗的脸都白了，低低叫道：“什……什么？五德营已经和阿史那部同盟了？”
赫连突利点了点头，“原本我也不敢确认，但送他出去，见他将一千多骑兵带了出来，就已经敢打包票。一千多部众，那快要是五德营的一半了，他把这一半力量都带出来，就是确信阿史那部不会趁他大部在外时对楚都城下手。阿史那拔突我想也不会有这种心，但拔突最相信他那兄弟钵古，钵古岂会不来占这个便宜？如果是我，早就从后方将楚都城端了，让他这一支千余人的精兵在外吸风饮露，自取灭亡。他有这个胆出来，就说明他坚信钵古不会对他下手。钵古为什么不对他下手？唯一的可能，就是五德营和阿史那部结盟了。”
赫连突利的一席话已让思然可汗心惊胆战。他本来觉得薛庭轩来依附自己，实是一件天大的好事，根本没想那么多。如果五德营和阿史那部结盟，一个是在西原如奇迹般异军突起的新晋势力，一个是原本就在仆固部之上雄厚实力，二者合二为一，仆固部的末日就到了。一时间，思然可汗头上汗已涔涔而下，对赫连突利抽丝剥茧地分析出这么多事也顾不得赞叹，一把抓住了赫连突利道：“突利，那该怎么办？怎么办？我马上去叫人把那司徒哈喇了！”
赫连突利却笑了笑道：“大汗，话也要说回来，五德营虽然和阿史那部结盟，对我们却并不是坏事。”
思然可汗一怔，道：“这话怎么讲？”
“大汗觉得，他们结盟后，最大的危险是什么？”
“自然是双方合兵，对我们仆固部下手。”
赫连突利一拍手道：“然也。阿史那部有了五德营做帮手，灭掉我们不在话下，但问题是薛庭轩真会看着我们被灭吗？如果我们灭了，钵古下一个目标就是五德营。薛庭轩既然是如此厉害一个人，我就不担心他会想不到这一点。”
思然可汗一片迷茫，道：“那到底该怎么办？”
“如果真有这一天，我怀疑不消我去联络五德营，薛庭轩会先秘密派人来谋求我的联系，共同对付阿史那部了。到时我们正面抗住阿史那部，他在阿史那部背后下刀，到时阿史那部不垮，就是上天显灵。”赫连突利犹豫了一下，又道：“不过阿史那部真的被五德营吃掉的话，到时我们的日子就比现在更难。薛庭轩这人不是轻易就满足的人，到时我们面对的，就会是一个比阿史那部更加大、比钵古更阴险的敌手了。”
思然可汗打了个寒战。这个前景实在太可怕了，他不知道那个一手已废的少年元帅是不是真有赫连突利说得那么凶，但赫连突利向来言必有中也是真的。他道：“你就直说吧，怎么样才是正确的应对之道？”
“三足鼎立，结弱抗强。”赫连突利淡淡地笑着，“谁弱就联结谁，放下一切世仇和面子。眼下族中也时有风声传出，说中原共和军有解决了五德营后重将西原收归之议。不论这是不是真的，现在最个可怕的敌人把主要目标放在了五德营上，我们就可以从中取利。”
在赫连突利与思然可汗正在寝帐中密谈的当口，薛庭轩停住了马，回头望了望。
赫连突利不除，思然可汗不亡。
虽然没有和司徒郁交流过看法，但他不约而同地得出了同一个结论。
这一次出来解决阿昌部的行动已然大获全胜，损失的只有十来个五德营弟兄，却把这根肉中刺彻底拔掉了。而这一趟不无冒险的行动，给他最大的收获便是发现了仆固部真正的核心。
赫连突利居然比阿史那钵古更不易对付！而他向来自豪的情报网，居然会漏掉这个最为危险的人物。他对法统的信仰并不坚定，现在他实在有点感激三清护佑。假如阿史那部中不是阿史那钵古，而是赫连突利的话，那么五德营的末日已经来了。
上天是公平的。钵古固然厉害，但他自信能够对付。而这个丝毫不逊色于自己的赫连突利，却是在实力不及阿史那部的仆固部中，而且已经被自己及时发现了。
更重要的是，这两个敌手虽然手握重权，却都不是敌方阵营的最高统治者，所以都有一道致命的裂缝。而且，他们年纪都比自己大得多，所以他们的压力也势必比自己大得多。
相形之下，钵古的破绽更多一些，而且有不臣之心，也更致命。只是这个赫连突利，明明只是思然可汗外戚，居然如此忠心耿耿，不惜以死报之。先前他真怕自己会忍不住杀死这个大敌的诱惑；与陈忠立刻就走，不无想让自己远离这诱惑的用意在。
赫连突利正在用自己的性命在试着自己。如果自己为了将来少一个劲敌，就趁现在将他杀了，那么自己在赫连突利的衡贵中就败下阵来，说明五德营并无发展前景，现在立刻决裂就行了。
好在，自己经受了这个考验，现在终于可以享受果实了。目前有赫连突利在，对自己实是利多弊少，因为此人能深刻体会到共和军的威胁，也看得到西原三方鼎立的前景。至少，他本来对司徒郁的安危心存担心，现在却可以放心了。
不过，等到明年解决了共和军的第二波攻势后，就该安排赫连突利的死期了……
