With Li Chengqian's order, the army immediately set off the camp and moved forward.

The camp of the Lanshan tribe of the Turkic tribe is stationed in Baiquan County, Yuanzhou. It took three days to go from here to Li Chengqian's marching speed.

However, Li Chengqian never looked for Li Simo again in the next two days, and never told him how the Turkic Lanshan tribe offended him.

This made Li Simo very dissatisfied, but he could only worry about Lanshan tribe when he looked at the guards of the East Palace with their spears and spears.

Li Simo knew that Qu Luchuo Ashinaduxun of the Lanshan tribe was also a Turkic royal family. He was brave and warlike and rebellious, and he didn't even take himself seriously. He had always been incompatible with the group of Turkic nobles headed by Lu Zhi.

In the fifteenth year of Zhenguan, most of the Turks crossed the Yellow River north before crossing the north of the Yellow River, he had a dispute with the Tang Dynasty Pingliang Mujian. At that time, the Tang Dynasty wanted to use them to go north to resist Xue Yantuo, so he did not pursue the investigation.

This time, the entire Turkic tribe retreated south of the Yellow River. Li Simo originally arranged the Lanshan tribe in the northern part of Lingzhou. I don’t know when the Lanshan tribe actually came to the boundary of Yuanzhou close to Qingzhou.

With Li Chengqian's domineering style, he really can't imagine what kind of thing will happen when he meets the rebellious Ashina Du Xun...

Li Simo was not worried about Li Simo's concerns. What big things could happen to a Turkic tribe as the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty?

The biggest thing was to completely destroy this Turkic tribe, and they all thought about it and "stole into the mainland of the Tang Dynasty without any orders."

Only Xuanzang and the monks who came to Famen Temple were somewhat embarrassed because Li Chengqian gave them the task of "subduing the people of the Lanshan tribe" to make these Turkic herdsmen believe in Buddhism, forget their white wolf ancestors, and believe in the "Legend of Heaven and Earth" written by Xu Jingzong.

Xuanzang asked about some information from the Turkic people last night.

It turned out that there were more than 10,000 people in the Lanshan tribe, of which only more than 2,000 were young and strong. This time, when they returned to the south of the Yellow River, they were blackmailed by several nearby herds prisons in Pingliang, Baiquan and Anhua. Their Qu Luchu almost collected all the cattle and sheep of the tribe and gave them to these three herds prisons.

Therefore, most of the herdsmen in Lanshan tribe cut off their food, so Ashinadu Xun left some young and strong people, and drove the rest out of the camp where the tribe was located, allowing them to make their own livelihood.

Fortunately, it was summer, and the weather was warm and there were some wild animals on the mountains and grasslands, so that they did not starve to death immediately. However, they took the elderly and young people to find some food in the mountains and forests, and it was easy to imagine how difficult it was.

Yesterday, Li Chengqian camped at the small lakeside. They had stayed in the evenings in recent days. When they came back, they saw a large military camp stationed by the lake. They didn't dare to get close to it, but because of their thirst, they had to take a detour to the woods and just wanted to drink a few sips of water by the lake.

After listening to Xuanzang's retelling, Li Chengqian came up with a plan after a moment of thinking. He immediately ordered people to give these Turks some food and water, and let them eat enough, and then bring them some dry food for them to go out to find other tribe members, and told them about their itinerary and let them bring them all over after they were found.

Then he ordered Xu Jingzong to send people to summon the three herdsmen who blackmailed them to Lanshan tribe, and Li Chengqian also had to deal with these people, otherwise it would affect the policies he would implement here later.

The army walked all morning, and when the sun was about to turn south, Su Dingfang ordered the entire army to stop and rest.

Li Chengqian's four-wheeled car was parked under several big trees. Li Chengqian got off the car and moved his body, which was so shocked that he was sore, and sat on a recliner to rest.

As soon as Li Chengqian sat down, he saw Wang Qun, the chief of the prince's family, coming over, and bowed to Li Chengqian with his fists and said, "Report to the prince, all arrangements are made."

Li Chengqian nodded expressionlessly when he heard this, "Yeah!" and paused for a moment and asked again, "What's going on over there?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Qun bent down and put his head into Li Chengqian's ear and whispered: "Li Simo was frowning all the way, but he did not send anyone out."

Li Chengqian nodded slightly when he heard this and began to close his eyes and rest.

This Wang Qun was also from the Wang family in Taiyuan. Because of Wang Yedan, many of the Wang family members of Taiyuan were unintentionally leaning towards the East Palace.

Li Chengqian came out this time and happened to be short of people around him, so he asked him to come out with some unsuccessful and talented tribe members to experience it.

Li Chengqian spread these people who were related to him to various parts of the army, learning how to march and fight, while collecting intelligence for him.

Not long after the army set off in the afternoon, the few Turkic people released by Li Chengqian last night brought back one or two hundred Turkic people. These people were all thin, unkempt and ragged. Seeing that they were so pitiful, Li Chengqian asked Xuanzang to keep some monks for them to eat, so as to calm their emotions first and then let them catch up.

These Turks at the bottom received the grace of the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty. They all blushed with excitement and lay on the ground and kowtowed to Li Chengqian's carriage. The army walked a long distance and was still unwilling to get up.

The next morning, Li Chengqian brought some dry food to these Turks, and still asked them to find their tribe members.

In this way, in the next two days, if Li Chengqian's army didn't go far, Turks would come to him. Li Chengqian handed all these people over to Xuanzang and Xu Jingzong for care.

Give them food and drink, treat them with injuries, and treat them with illness. In addition, Xuanzang told them a passage of "The Legend of Heaven and Earth" every night, which made these people who had a low status among the Turks and could only be cows and horses, and really thought they had met a god who saved the suffering.

For a time, their respect for Li Chengqian and Li Shimin reached a point of admiration.

On the afternoon of the third day, Li Chengqian and his army finally arrived near the camp of Lanshan tribe. The pioneer army led by Xue Rengui had arrived here half a day in advance and guarded the exit road of Lanshan tribe's camp tightly.

Considering Li Chengqian's safety, Su Dingfang set up the Central Army camp five miles away from the Turkic camp in Lanshan.

After receiving the news, Xue Rengui rode his horse to the Central Army camp to pay homage to Li Chengqian.

Xue Rengui, wearing silver armor, walked into the tent majestic, then pushed the golden mountain and turned upside down to Li Chengqian, kneeling down on one knee and saluting: "I will meet His Royal Highness the Prince."

Seeing this, Li Chengqian stretched out his hands to support him with a smile and said, "Don't give me a favor."

Xue Rengui stood up and clasped his fists again and said, "Your Highness the Prince, my troops have guarded the exit of the camp in the Lanshan tribe of Turkic. But Tufalu of Lanshan tribe came out to report that their Quluchu Ashinaduxun had left the camp five days ago and went to Yuanzhou to join the Quluchu of other Turkic tribes."

"What alliance will happen?" Li Chengqian was shocked when he heard this.

"The left-behind Tufa just said that their Quluchu was invited by Quluchuluzhi of the Uwu tribe."

Li Chengqian thought for a while and then asked, "How many people did he bring?"

"According to Tufa, who was left behind in Lanshan tribe, he only brought a hundred and ten guards."

"Are you sure you left five days ago?" Li Chengqian confirmed again.

"Chu Dabiao, the deputy envoy of Pingliang Muslim Supervisor, has always been here. I also asked him. Chu Dabiao said that Ashina Du Xun did leave five days ago."

Li Chengqian nodded slightly and murmured: "It seems that it wasn't because we missed the news here." Then he turned his head and asked Yuchi Gong: "Does Qu Luchu, the Turkic Duke of Aiguo, have the habit of having a regular alliance?"

After hearing this, Yuchi Gong thought about it: "Since the Turkic tribes surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty did not prohibit them from private exchanges. The tribes did often gather together to hunt."

Li Chengqian heard this and said intimately: The Tang Dynasty is really generous!

Then he took a deep breath and said to Xue Rengui: "Have the deputy envoy of Pingliang Muslim Supervisor arrived?"

"Return to the Crown Prince, Pingliang, Baiquan, and Anhua, the pastoral supervisors of the three pastoral supervisors have all come."

"Tell them in!"

After a while, three small officials in green robes walked into Li Chengqian's central army tent, and as soon as they came in, they lay on the ground and kowtowed.

Li Chengqian waved his hand expressionlessly, and Liu Kui shouted: "Don't give me a favor!"

After a few people got up, Li Chengqian said lightly: "Which one of you is the deputy envoy of Pingliang Muslim Supervisor?"

A middle-aged man with mustache quickly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Go back to the crown prince, the young minister Chu Dabiao is the deputy envoy of the Pingliang pastoral supervisor."

Li Chengqian glanced at him and asked blankly: "I heard you have been here for a few days, so why are you?"

"I heard that the prince was going to Lingzhou, so I wanted to find a few white camels to offer to the prince. Someone told me that there were two white camels in Lanshan tribe, so I brought four zong colored camels to exchange with them. But who knew that the Lanshan tribe was disrespectful and unwilling to offer the camels to the prince,—"

When Li Chengqian heard Chu Dabiao meant to use himself to oppress Lanshan tribe, he was furious and slapped the case suddenly and said, "Rareless!"

Chu Dabiao was frightened by Li Chengqian, and then smiled and said, "Who said it was not? The Lanshan tribe is really too presumptuous. I would like to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to order their Lanshan tribe to be ruled... "

Li Chengqian was too lazy to pay attention to him and turned around and said to Wang Qun: "Take him down and try it out!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Qun immediately summoned two guards to drag Chu Dabiao out.

It was not until the two guards stepped forward to grab his arm Chu Dabiao realized that Li Chengqian was saying that he was presumptuous.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, please spare me—"

When Chu Dabiao was dragged away, Li Chengqian looked coldly at the two remaining herds and said, "Tell me! How many horses, cattle and sheep have you blackmailed in this Lanshan tribe?"

The two were stunned when they heard this, looked at each other, and hurriedly knelt down and said, "Your Highness, the prince, I am wronged! I have never blackmailed the horses, cattle and sheep of the Lan tribe.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't believe it and just sent someone to check the camp in Lanshan tribe. Today, General Xue guarded his camp and they didn't go out to graz. It was really herds of cattle and sheep, and horses were like clouds!"

Li Chengqian looked at Xue Rengui in confusion when he heard this. Xue Rengui hurriedly bowed and said, "I have never entered the camp of Lanshan tribe, but I have controlled this camp early in the morning. They really did not go out to grazle."

Li Chengqian heard this and said to Wang Fangyi: "Fang Yi, go find General Li to go to the camp of Lanshan tribe together."

Seeing that Li Chengqian was indeed someone to see, the two herdsmen below were happy. They had indeed left many cattle, sheep and horses from Lanshan tribe before, but today they saw that Lanshan tribe had herds of cattle, sheep and sheep again.

At this time, Li Chengqian asked him and immediately used this matter to make excuses. Now Li Chengqian sent someone to check it out, and Lanshan tribe couldn't explain it even if he had a mouth!

Li Chengqian sent out the two herdsmen and asked Xu Jingzong: "How many Turks are there in the camp now?"

"Return to His Highness the Crown Prince, and there are a total of 3,654 people who have joined us today."

Li Chengqian nodded and said to Su Dingfang: "Let the army rest here for half an hour, and then follow the orphan king to fight the local tyrants."

Su Dingfang hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "The last one will obey the order."
