Turbulent Times Chapter 56: Terrible melee


Just when Wang Junlin was about to go back to the tent and start practicing the nameless exercises given by Changkuzi, he suddenly saw a monk in a red cassock with a flushed face and fat as a pig standing next to four gray robes. Surrounded by Buddhist monks, they walked past them and walked into the depths of the Khurunubi tribe.

"My lord, this fat monk is Master Suo Daji of the Hulu Nubi tribe. His temple is on the short hill to the west. Usually, if the Hulu Nubi doesn't summon him, this monk seldom comes. After the war, he will come to do things for the Turkic people who died in the battle." The person who spoke was the head of the caravan where Wang Junlin was, and he was actually a merchant that Wang Junlin had secretly selected from the refugees.

This guy's name is Deng Yuzhuo, he was originally a big businessman in Gaolan County, Jincheng County, but it turned out to be unlucky. In the battle last year, he was robbed by Tuyuhun before he could lead his family and belongings to Jincheng County. He killed his whole family and robbed all his belongings. The reason why he survived was because he could settle accounts. A leader of Tuyuhun wanted to keep him to settle accounts for himself.

Later the Sui Army defeated King Bailan of Tuyuhun, but the leader didn't care about Deng Yuzhuo, so this guy took the opportunity to escape, ran into Gaotai City, and became a refugee.

Wang Junlin was able to know that this guy was a big businessman because he had a chief of a hundred people who recognized Deng Yuzhuo when he passed the refugee camp.

Of course, Wang Junlin recruited him secretly, otherwise how could he make money for Wang Junlin and at the same time inquire about news.

For Deng Yuzhuo who had nothing left, Wang Junlin not only gave him a chance to survive, but also gave him a chance to regain his former prosperity. Wang Junlin's loyalty can be said to be Wang Junlin's biggest cash cow today.

Wang Junlin is also very generous. He has never treated Deng Yuzhuo like the nobles of this era treat their servants. Instead, he directly gave 10% of Deng Yuzhuo's members, and made Deng Yuzhuo give him 10% of his heart. He wholeheartedly made money for Wang Junlin and himself. In the past half a year, he married a daughter-in-law who was twenty years younger than him in Gaotai City. Wang Junlin heard that he was pregnant with a cub, so he tied him to Gaotai City even more.

The Bon religion master named Sardin in the Ashina tribe made himself like an ascetic monk. In addition to being fond of offering sacrifices and burning things, his own food, housing, use, and transportation are even the hardest herdsmen. Rather, this is also a practice method of the Bon religion to hone the will and strengthen the belief. This is actually the same reason that later generations of Tibetan Buddhist believers can kneel and worship for hundreds of miles to visit the Living Buddha in Lhasa.

But Master Suo Daji of the Hulu Nubi tribe was just the opposite. Among other things, he saw that the old monk was red-faced and as fat as a pig. This monk is actually his servant, as can be seen from the resplendent and magnificent temple on the mountain to the west of the Kurunubi tribe.

Kurunubi called Master Suo Daji to discuss with him about joining hands with Ashina to deal with Khan Tongyehu and King Podo.

Kurunubi never doubted that someone would blame him for being assassinated, because he was the only survivor of the Western Turkic royal family before. What's more, the arrow he hit was indeed the arrow used by Tong Yehu's headquarters. All of this made him immediately target the people of Tong Yehu Khan and King Boduo.

More importantly, this is not the first time Tongyehu Khan and Podofa King have used it. During the coup d'état, the two used assassination methods to kill Chuluo Khan first, and let the loyal Chuluoke Khan's henchmen belonged to the heads of the dragons, so they were defeated so quickly and seized the royal court.

So, in Hulu Nubi's view, his assassination this time was just a re-use of the old tricks of Tongyehu Khan and Bo Duo Fawang, but he was killed than Fu Dafa. That's all.

If it weren't for the fact that there were only 80,000 soldiers under his command who could mount a horse and kill the enemy, and his force was only one-third of that of Tong Yehu Khan, he would have led the army to kill him long ago, and now he can only join hands with Ashina to deal with Tong Ye Protect this bastard.

Just when Khurunubi was gathering troops and horses to prepare for battle at any time, the spies he sent reported that Tong Yehu personally led an army of 200,000 troops to kill the Ashina tribe, and then the envoy sent by Ashina He also came, and Hulu Nubi agreed to the request of the Ashina messenger without hesitation, and ordered the army to set off to rescue the Ashina tribe.

When Ashina had completed the mobilization and deployment of the great war, Khan Tongyehu led a mighty army of 200,000 to fight over. , uproot them, and take everything from them! Riding the pagan horses and using their beautiful women as your pajamas and cushions is the greatest joy of a warrior...""

Since the coup d'état more than half a year ago in Western Turks, the biggest civil war is inevitable!

Tong Yehu Khan originally wanted to kill the opponent by surprise as much as possible, but he also knew that it was impossible for Ashina to be unsuspecting, because since Ashina had sent someone to poison their fodder, he would definitely To guard against his crazy revenge after the incident was revealed, he listened to the advice of King Bodo and simply asked all the soldiers to sing a song composed by King Bodo himself. While gathering morale, it also made these soldiers believe in Nestorian even more invisibly. firm.

Sure enough, when Tong Yehu led the army to arrive, I saw that the Ashina tribe had already been ready for battle.

The Turkic people have never said that they should be polite before fighting. Now that they have torn their skins, there is no nonsense and they will fight directly.

From Tong Yehu Khan's point of view, he has 200,000 cavalry, while Ashina only has 100,000 horses, twice as many troops as the opponent. Even in the opponent's territory, he has an absolute superior force In this battle, he must kill Ashina. As for King Bo Duo, he must kill Guru Sardin and the group of believers who are most committed to the Bon religion, so that hundreds of thousands of people from the Ashina tribe will eventually all become believers of their Nestorian religion.

The rain of arrows howled, shouting to kill and rush to the night.

On the grassland in spring, people turned their backs on their backs, swords and guns at the same time, and there were constant screams, but they were suppressed by even louder screams.

The cavalry charged and tried to pierce the opponent to fight. This is the most commonly used and favorite tactic of the Turkic cavalry. Therefore, the tactics of the two tribes were the same, they both used offense instead of defense, and the killings were extremely brutal.

Tong Yehu Khan stood on a high hill behind the battlefield to watch the battle, thinking that he had directly killed the Ashina tribe today, and behind the latter were women, children, old and young children, although it aroused the soldiers of the Ashina tribe to die However, it also made the cavalry of the Ashina tribe not dare to charge too far. It can be said that all the warriors of the Ashina tribe were firmly tied here.

At the same time, Khurunubi led 80,000 cavalry from the southeast. He planned to attack Tongye Huke from behind when Ashina and Tongyehu were fighting fiercely. Khan's army.

Everything in this battle went according to what Wang Junlin, Changsun Sheng, and Changsun Wuji planned, and the flames of the war intensified...

Tong Yehu Khan, relying on his large number of people, attacked Ashina's tribe unscrupulously. Ashina's tribe has no walls, not even a fence. Although the soldiers are desperate to protect their homeland, But there are still a few places that were finally broken through. The fierce soldiers of the Wangting tribe entered the Ashina tribe, and the old and weak women and children ran around crying. It is already difficult to reverse, unless reinforcements appear.

However, at this moment, the hooves of the horses sounded like tens of thousands of buzzers, and the sharp arrows that covered the sky and the sun shot from the back of Tongyehu Khan's army. The men and horses finally arrived.

Kurunubi wanted revenge wholeheartedly. Usually, he had too few soldiers and horses to defeat Tong Yehu. Now he had the opportunity to join forces with Ashina and sneak attack from the rear, so he came quickly and quickly. Tong Yehu could Khan's generals originally deployed soldiers and horses to defend the rear, but when the Ashina tribe was defeated, the soldiers behind couldn't wait to rush forward. Just kidding, the Turkic people fought for one purpose, to rob property and women, and now they have broken the Ashina tribe, and the wealthy women will be allowed to be plundered by them. How tempting is this? If you stick to the back line blindly, wouldn't you end up empty-handed? Therefore, after a commotion in the rear army of Tong Yehu Khan, they couldn't wait to rush forward. Just at this moment, Khurunubi led the army to kill.

Arrows fell like rain, and the unprepared Tong Yehu Khan's army fell one after another like lambs to be slaughtered!

After two rounds of throwing, Hulu Nubi rushed forward with 80,000 cavalry viciously. In a scuffle, the two sides were entangled, roaring, and blood gushing. Even in the darkness and chaos, these Western Turkic people can skillfully form groups of three or five people, cooperate with each other, charge and kill in small groups, on the vast and vast grassland, with torches dotted, the three parties rode horses and clashed, fighting endlessly.

Ashena's side, who was stepping towards the core to defend, saw that Kurunubi arrived with 80,000 reinforcements, his morale was boosted immediately, and he immediately mobilized Yu Yong to launch a counterattack. The scuffle with nearly 400,000 cavalry troops participating in the battle began in full swing, like a pack of wild wolves fighting on the grassland.

On this day, I do not know how many fresh lives of the Western Turks will be buried on this grassland... And this is exactly the emperor of the Sui Dynasty, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and the two chief and deputy envoys Wang Junlin and Changsun Sheng. The ultimate goal that has been planned for a long time, now it seems that this strategic goal has been successfully realized.
