Chapter 15 The Temptation of Generous Design

Since the end of the seventh year of Zhenguan, Li Shimin issued an order to order the Prince of Huaihua, Ashinasmo, who was in Hetao, to lead Jie Li's old subordinates to move north and live in Dingxiang City to enrich the land in the south of the desert. In June of the eighth year of Zhenguan, 200,000 Turkic soldiers and civilians finally arrived in the south of the desert one after another.

Li Shimin's will was to express benevolence and righteousness, which was to complete the thought of Ashinasmo's return home, to restore the Turkic country to demonstrate benevolence and righteousness, but his secret meaning was well known to everyone.

The so-called return to his homeland is just a nicer cover. What Li Shimin is really planning is Xue Yantuo, who lives in the north of the desert.

Li Shimin ordered Ashinasmo to go north, one to build a barrier outside the Great Wall on the northern line of the Tang Dynasty to block the power of Xue Yantuo; the other to test Xue Yantuo and see how Xue Yantuo was stubborn and courageous to rebel against the Tang Dynasty.

Asunasmo moved northward, for the Tang Dynasty, it was just an extra barrier to the northern line, but for Xue Yantuo, it was arguing their army.

As Ashinasmo went north and entered Dingxiang City, Xue Yantuo in the north also heard the news. To the south of Xue Yantuo, the special service personnel who bordered the Tang Dynasty were also recalled to Yu Dujun Mountain to face business opportunities.

Mobei, Yu Dujunshan, Yating.

In the Khan's tent, the lord of Mobei, the king of Xueyantuo, and the Zhenzhu Viga Khan Yinan was sitting in the upper seat in the middle, with a blue face. In the big tent, the Yinan's sons Yimang, Bazhuo, Tulishi, his nephew Dumozhi, and the second son Dadu, who guarded Junji Mountain, were all present.

"You must have known the news that Emperor Tang Li Shimin ordered Ashinasmo to be stationed in the south of the desert." Everyone arrived, Yi Nan spoke first and asked everyone in the Khan tent.

Asunasmo moved north, with a total of 200,000 people, with a huge momentum and a long time. How could these powerful people of Xue Yantuo not know?

Dumozhi was the nephew of Yinan Khan, who was close to Yinan, and said first: "Since the defeat of the Turks, the Khan has been living in the north of the Mo, and the Emperor of Tang has been very afraid of me Xueyantuo. This time, I sent Ashinasmo to the north and showed my hostility towards me Xueyantuo, so I must be guarded."

As soon as Dumozhi's words fell, the young son of the Yiman, Bazhuo, stood up.

Ba Zhuo sneered, and then said, "My Xue Yantuo is victorious of 200,000 soldiers, strong soldiers, and strong horses. My father Khan, I am willing to lead 100,000 troops south to capture Chang'an, and capture Li Shimin and Li Ke and his son to the Khan court and hand it over to his father Khan."

Although Ba Zhuo was young, he was violent and even more arrogant, even more so than being generous. In his eyes, Xue Yantuo's Mobei Light Cavalry was unparalleled in the world and was rampant in the world. He wanted to break the Tang Dynasty's sect only with his hands raised, so he even said that he would lead a 100,000 army to Chang'an to capture Li Shimin and Li Ke alive.

In his opinion, Li Shimin was the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. If he could capture him alive, it would be a great achievement. As for the reason why he mentioned Li Ke, it was not because of his grudges with Li Ke, but among Li Shimin's sons, he had no idea who the crown prince Li Chengqian was. He just knew from the clan that Li Shimin had a third prince Li Ke, who was famous in the south of the desert.

Ba Zhuo thought that Yi Nan would be very happy after hearing his words, but Yi Nan's reaction called Ba Zhuo disappointed.

When Yi Nan heard Ba Zhuo's words, his face was not good-looking at all. He just pressed his hand and signaled Ba Zhuo to sit down without saying a word.

Obviously, the young man Bazhuo was arrogant, but Yi Nan had dealt with Li Shimin in the Tang Dynasty. When the Turks were armed with millions of armor and were sitting in Yinshan, they were so powerful. In the eyes of Yi Nan at that time, the Turks were simply an insurmountable mountain. However, only four years after Li Shimin ascended the throne, he sent troops to pacify the Turks, and even captured Jie Li Khan alive and took him back to Chang'an. The scene at that time was still fresh in memory of Yi Nan Khan.

Although Yi Nan had never seen Emperor Li Shimin of Tang, he had seen Li Ke. He remembered that Li Ke was only eight years old at that time, but he was such an eight-year-old proton standing in the Turkic tent. Facing the Turkic tyrants full of tents, he was able to calmly and calmly deal with it. This really surprised him.

When Li Ke saw his son, he knew his father. Even Li Ke was like this. What a hero, Li Shimin, the Emperor of Tang who was far away in Chang'an, could not help but feel cold in his back. However, Yi Nan was king in Mobei for several years, but he never dared to take the initiative to go south to provoke the Tang Dynasty. This is why.

It is not easy for a Yi Man to win a country, and he doesn't want to and dare to be the second Jie Li.

Faced with Bazhuo's arrogance, Yi Nan said nothing, but at this moment, a trace of disdain flashed in the eyes of the grand lord sitting under the tent.

He was not only disdainful of the arrogant, but also disdainful of the weak.

Ba Zhuo's short-sightedness, and even said the rude words of driving 100,000 soldiers, and then he dared to break through Chang'an. He claimed that he knew the generality of the soldiers was naturally disdainful. However, he did not agree with the generality of the Yi men who were trembling with the power of the Tang Dynasty in the north of the Mohe.

In the view of Dadushi, although the Tang Dynasty was powerful, Xue Yantuo was not under it. The Tang Dynasty was nothing more than a strong city. The Tang army refused to defend the city, and Xue Yantuo was mostly a cavalryman, so it was naturally unfavorable to attack the city. It was not easy to go south to attack Tang. Although Dadushi was not in harmony with Li Ke, he also knew that the so-called capturing Li Shimin and Li Ke alive in Bazhuo was simply a fantasy and could not be possible.

But Dadushi firmly believes that Xue Yantuoer is good at riding and shooting, and has unparalleled combat power. The grassland is wide, and there is no strong city to defend except Dingxiang City. If you fight in the desert, the Tang army will definitely not be Xue Yantuo's opponent. This is why Dadushi dared to make his own decisions several times and hunt in the face of the real water.

Dadushi stood up and said, "Qi Bian, I think this matter is of great importance, and it is related to my life and death of Xue Yantuo, and my father's khan has to be serious."

Dadu set up a guard against Junji Mountain, and Junji Mountain is connected with the Ino True Water in the south of the Mo, so Dadu set is the most familiar with the situation in the south of the Mo. His words are different from the young Bazhuo, and the Yinan has to weigh a little more.

Yi Nan asked, "How can Xueyantuo's life and death be affected by Ashina Simo's remnants of the Turkic tribe?"

Daduan replied: "The Emperor of Tang was ambitious and wanted to reject the desert for himself. The Emperor of Tang seemed to have only sent Ashinasmo to the north, but in fact he was testing his father Khan. If the Emperor of Tang tolerated this move, he would not ask about it. The Emperor of Tang would definitely use me, Xue Yantuo, to go north at the right time. Today, the Emperor of Tang sent troops to the south of the desert, and he would take the lead in taking Yu Dujun Mountain in the future."

The generous words were just as they were in the heart of the Yi Nan Khan, and he was worried about this. A Shinasmo was not a good thing, and he was afraid of Li Shimin's ambitions.

Yi Nan asked, "What should you do according to your opinion?"

He replied without thinking: "Asinasmo led the people north. Although there were 200,000, there were more than 100,000 herders, and only 50,000 to fight were only 50,000 or 60,000. He was definitely not my opponent. Emperor Tang was testing his father Khan. Why didn't his father Khan also test the Emperor Tang, and he raised an army to attack Asnasmo first, and see what the Emperor Tang was about to Asnasmo and to me Xueyantuo."

Li Shimin did have the intention of using Asunasmo to test Xueyantuo, but the meaning of being generous was very clear. He wanted to attack Asunasmo, who had not yet established a firm foothold and see what Li Shimin's attitude towards the dispute between Xueyantuo and the Turks was.
