Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty Chapter 1817: Cross the sea without knowing the sky and finally reach the grassland!
Youzhou is located in the northeast of Chang'an. Together with Jizhou, Yunzhou, and Fengzhou, it has built a strong military barrier for the northern border of Datang. Traveling northward for seventy miles from Youzhou, you will enter the Turkic boundary, and then thirty miles northward, you will be able to reach the Ya Ting of Turk Khan.
A prairie khan set up his own Ya Ting on the border of Datang. This seems to have a lot of unreasonable things, but there are reasons for all of this.
Tuli Khan, Ashina family, named Shibobi, son of Shibi Khan. In the second year of Wude, Shibi Khan died of illness. Shi Bobi was not able to succeed Khan because of his young age, and his uncle, Tully Fu, was succeeded as Ro Khan. After Chuluo Khan succeeded to the throne, Shibobi was appointed as the Nibu Shi, and he was placed in the eastern part of the Turkic (the land bordered the northern part of Youzhou in the Tang Dynasty).
In this way, if the Tang Dynasty attacks the Turks in the future, Shibobi’s subordinates will be the first to bear the brunt and can resist Chuluo Khan for a while; if the Turks attack the Datang, the Shibobi subordinates can act as vanguards. Chu Luo Khan charged into battle!
I don’t know if Shibi Khan learned that his brother treated his son this way in the spring, would he lift the coffin board with anger. But this is not over yet.
In the four years of Wude, Chuluo Khan passed away, and Shi Bobi another uncle, Duo, succeeded to the throne, now Jie Li Khan. After Jie Li Khan ascended the throne, in order to win over the original Shibi Khan’s old ministry, he appointed Shi Boli as the little Khan, in charge of the Khitan, Mohe and other ministries, named Tuli Khan, but the position of Tuli’s tooth court was not there. Change, still connected to Youzhou in the south, in the eastern part of the Turks, became a special "military barrier" between Li Er and Jie Li!
At this time, a caravan is driving on the grassland, and the direction they are moving is the Ya Ting of Tuli Khan!
There are more than 20 people in this caravan. The leader of the caravan is slightly fat, dressed in a round-necked green silk, with a sash around his waist, and his long hair is not tied up, instead he is tied into pigtails. , Just wear it casually, this is a typical Turkic costume!
Look at the twenty-something people behind the businessman. All of them are dressed in coarse cloth and leather clothes, their hair is "braided and draped", and a scimitar is worn around their waist. They all look like Kong Wu powerful!
Apparently, these people are the guards accompanying the merchant!
In addition to people, this caravan is accompanied by more than a dozen horse-drawn carriages, the kind of horse-drawn carriages that specialize in transporting goods, not the ones that carry people. Through the carriage door, you can see that the carriage is filled with a dazzling array of goods, including silk, porcelain, and household utensils in the boiler.
The caravan was riding on the prairie unhurriedly. Suddenly, a group of sergeants dressed in leather clothes and armour and armed with curved sabers rushed towards this side.
"Stop~!"
The group of soldiers approached the caravan and immediately reined their horses to stop. The lead sergeant calmly asked, "Who are you?"
As for the language spoken by the sergeant, it is naturally not Chinese, but Turkic!
Since Tumen defeated Rouran and established the Turkic Khanate in 552 AD, until the Baimei Khan was defeated by the Uighurs and retired from the stage of history in 745 AD, the sphere of influence continued to expand for more than two hundred years, and it was at its peak. It occupies vast areas of the Mongolian Plateau, the Zhungeer Basin, and the Central Asian grasslands. As a powerful nomadic people active on the northern grasslands in ancient China, the Turks have had an important influence on the history of China, Central Asia and the world!
In addition, the Turks were also the first nomadic people in ancient China to have their own characters and languages. Like the Huns and Rouran hundreds of years ago, they did not have their own languages and characters, and they all used Chinese characters!
"We are servants of the bones department. On the order of the chief, we have just shipped a batch of Datang specialties from Taiyuan and are ready to dedicate to the Great Khan!"
Faced with the sudden road sergeant, the businessman looked as usual. He looked up and down the more than ten sergeants in front of him, rolled over and dismounted, put his right hand on his left chest, and leaned over in a salute. Then he was fluent. He blurted out the authentic Turkic dialect and made his debut.
The strange thing is that this place is clearly the site of Tuli Khan, but the businessman is standing on the side of Jie Khan so clearly, it is really puzzling! Isn't he afraid that these soldiers will kill them all or arrest them all and tie them to the Tuli camp?
However, after hearing the merchant’s reply, the sergeants did not have any unusual applications on their faces, and there was no extreme action in their hands. There was even a trace of fear in the eyes of the leading sergeant, but it was quickly covered up and he turned to Looking inside the carriage, he said: "The Servant Bone Department? What did you transport to Datang? We need to check!"
The merchant smiled and said: "The things on the carriage are nothing more than silk, porcelain, and ironware. If you like, you can pick a few of them and take them away as our bone servants give you! Just return it. I wonder which tribe you are from?"
Turning from defense to offense, who would have thought that this businessman would turn from passive to active!
I heard that the businessman said that each person could pick a few pieces to take away, and there was a hint of greed flashing in the eyes of the dozen or so sergeants. After all, these things mentioned by the merchants are relatively common in Datang, but on the grasslands, These are all in short supply!
A trace of greed flashed in the head of the sergeant, but he soon returned to normal. He raised his head and said: "I am a member of the cohort, and I will guard this place by the order of the Great Khan. Since you are offering these things For the Great Khan, then we naturally won’t take more... Uh, one for one person!"
The Qizhi Tribe, one of Tiele's fifteenth tribe, is the closest tribe to the Tuli Khan’s Ya Ting, which belongs to the Jili Khan forces! From this point of view, the businessman previously said that he was a servant of the bones, and it was an extremely correct decision! Because the Servant Bone Department is near the court of the Turkic King, it is the direct force of Jie Li Khan!
The merchant heard the words and laughed: "It turns out to be a warrior of the Affiliate. Since it was ordered by the Great Khan, please check these goods!"
After that, he made a "please" gesture.
Seeing that the businessman is so open and on the road, the leading sergeant waved to everyone behind him, and said: "Okay! Since you are friends of the Servant Bone Department, each of my brothers should take an iron tool!"
When the voice fell, everyone cheered, turned over and got off the horse quickly, and walked towards the carriage loaded with goods. After a while, some of these people were holding iron pots, and some of them carried an iron stove. For those living in the grassland, For the nomads, these ironware from the Central Plains are very scarce, because the people in the steppes are not good at making iron, let alone making iron!
In the case of an iron pan, a good iron pan can easily be exchanged for dozens of sheep on the grassland. Some tribes who are poorly mixed cannot use iron pots, so they can only use stone pots!
"Okay! Brothers from the servant bone department, let's go! My name is Qifuhe, you are very angry with me, haha! There are three levels ahead, but you only need to report my name when they come. You won’t be embarrassed! But don’t go near the Khan’s tooth court, or you will be caught!"
The leading sergeant grinned at the merchant with a black iron pan in his hand.
From beginning to end, they just took a piece of iron that they wanted, but they didn't check the goods on the carriage one by one!
The businessman smiled and leaned over to salute: "Thank you brother Qibihe!"
The sergeant named Qifuhe waved his hand, and then left with his men contentedly.
The merchant paused on the spot for a while, seeing the sergeants walking away, and he said to the guards behind him: "Quickly go! Be sure to get to Tuliya Court before dark!"
Chinese!
At this time, the businessman actually spoke Chinese!
"Here~!"
The two dozen guards behind the businessman clasped their fists and said in unison.
What's even more bizarre is that they are all speaking Chinese at the moment!
It turns out that they turned out to be a group of people from the Central Plains who came to the grassland in disguise, but the businessman is a native of the Central Plains, why is Turkic speaking so fluently?
A group of people set foot on the trip again.
Sure enough, as that Qi Fu He said, they encountered three more levels in the subsequent journey, but the three words "Qi Fu He" seemed to be really useful among these Turkic sergeants. Those who originally came over The Turkic soldiers who searched did not embarrass the caravan, but the businessman was wealthy. Although he did not suffer any difficulties, he still left some iron or silk for the sergeants at various levels, which made the sergeants laugh and threatened. If you go to Datang to buy goods again, they will definitely not stop it!
"Okay! Next we should be safe!"
After passing the last level, the leading businessman finally sighed in relief, said.
"Hey! Duke Ju, you are so amazing! Those Turkic soldiers have been fooled by you. At first, they will sweat for you in the end!"
Hearing this~IndoMTL.com~The guards behind the businessman also breathed a sigh of relief. Among them, the first guard couldn't help looking at the businessman with admiration at this time, and said with emotion.
Duke Ju!
It turns out that this businessman dressed up as a Turkic man turned out to be Tang Jian, the prince of Ju Guo, who set out secretly from Chang'an more than ten days ago and was ordered to send the Turkic envoy!
Who would have thought that the great Tang Ju Guogong would pretend to be a Turkic businessman and speak fluent Turkic language?
At this time, the rest of the guards also looked at Tang Jian with admiration. This man led them to break through the many levels of Jieli with his own power. It is hard to admire him!
Tang Jian stood with his hand in his hand, and smiled faintly: "I waited for this time to go to Turk, and I was dancing on the tip of a knife. In the future, we will encounter more dangerous situations than today. If we want to go back alive , While being careful in everything, you have to be fully prepared when you wait!"
At this time, Tang Jian's beard and hair are moving with the wind, just like Zhou Yu who is in the dust while talking and laughing. He is calm, calm and unrestrained. Such a mentality is so strong that it explodes!
"Yes!"
Everyone responded.
The head of the guard hesitated for a moment, and said: "Duke Ju, there will be one thing at the end of the puzzle. Why did you say to him that we are the servants of the bones? This area is a sudden advantage. Khan, when you said that, you were not afraid that Qi Fu He was a turbulent person and killed us all?"
He understands some Turkic languages, but he is far less proficient than Tang Jian. It was only then that Tang Jian had a conversation with Qi Fu He, and he also understood part of it. It is because of this that he sweated for Tang Jian!
