Seeing Chen Ying's harmless face, Ashina Gushe couldn't believe that Chen Ying was actually the "Chen Rentu" passed down by the Turkic population.
In this day and age, it is very rude to stare at someone.Of course, let alone a big man.
Chen Ying was slightly displeased. The cavalry and soldiers around him rattled their horseshoes and made their armor hoot, all of them were full of anger and murderous!
Livestock are most sensitive to such things as "murderous intent", and the horses straddled by Ashina Valley are war horses, which are more sensitive to murderous intent.This strong murderous aura made it feel extremely dangerous.He was startled at the moment, and immediately retreated hastily to dodge.
Not only Ashina Gushe, but even the war horse that Goshunur stepped on is the same.
Ashina Gushe hurriedly got off his horse and crawled towards Chen Ying.Ashina Gushe crawled in front of Chen Ying's horse, arched his waist, and used it as a stool for dismounting.
Chen Ying is not used to treating people as animals, even the Turks.
Chen Ying got off his horse.
But Ashina Gushe crawled up to Chen Ying's feet, and said in poor Tang dialect: "Ashina Gushe, the son of Great Turkic Yipidulu Khan, has a meeting with General Chen!"
Chen Ying wanted to step forward to help Ashina Gushe up, but in the end, the sour smell of sweat and the unique smell of leather armor almost smoked out the food he ate yesterday. It is an extra-large mobile garbage station!
Fortunately, Chen Ying was extraordinary after all. He smiled gently and said, "Little Khan, you don't need to be polite. You have come all the way. You have worked hard!"
As he said that, Chen Ying ordered: "Wash the wind and dust off the little Khan!"
"Receive the wind and wash the dust!" The original meaning is to host a banquet to entertain guests from afar, but now Chen Ying is really washing the dust.Under the kindness of the generals of the Tang army, all the Turks, including Ashina Valley, were taken to Tangquan Valley outside Beiting City.
Naturally, Tangquan Valley could not be polluted by these Turkic people. They were taken into a huge tent, and dozens of large chest-high wooden barrels were densely arranged in the tent.
As soon as Goshunur jumped into the hot wooden barrel, he saw a soldier of the Tang army hold his nose, hook his leather robe with an iron hook, and walked out.
Turkic people have very little scruples about etiquette. Goshunur climbed up the wooden barrel with his bare buttocks, and chased out of the tent in spite of the cold weather.
However, the soldiers of the Tang army went one step further, throwing Goshunur's torn sheepskin robe, together with the bits and pieces of his body, into the burning fire.
Goshunur yelled, and quickly rescued his own sheepskin robe from the fire, and extinguished the flames on the sheepskin without ignoring the flames. Seeing that the sheepskin robe was completely burned After falling, he shook his scorched sheepskin robe and yelled at the generals of the Katang army: "What are you doing?"
The generals of the Tang Army looked at the burning foam on Goshunur's hand, smiled and pointed to a pile of new down jackets beside him and said, "Your leather robes are already old, and General Chen rewarded you with new ones!"
Geshu Nur's sharp eyes became docile.This pile of new down jackets does not have the stench of sheepskin robes, and they are very soft, not only clean, but also better in warmth.
Like Ashina Gushe, Goshunur got into the tent again to take a bath with his new down jacket in his arms.
When Ashina Gushe and others went to take a bath, Su Dingfang was holding a knife that belonged to Ashina Gushe, looked at Chen Ying and said, "These two scimitars are made of inferior iron, they are blunt and soft. It was scrapped after a few splits. If you look carefully, you can see a lot of gaps on it. It is hard to believe that this is the equipment of a prince's guard! Obviously, those cavalry who are guested by herdsmen cannot have better equipment, no wonder The Western Turks have been fighting for five years and there is still no winner, such a knife, our bright armor, even if they cut them, they can't cut them."
Su Dingfang couldn't help being a little disappointed. As early as when Ashinagu shot at him and asked Chen Ying to surrender, he wanted to bring Yipidulu Khan over as an ally, so as to avoid Yipidulu Khan's attack on Anxi. Harassment, on the other hand, is also more powerful against the plethora of Turkic tribes. Unexpectedly, Yipidulu Khan's strength is so weak, it is really not worth it.
Su Dingfang sighed: "With such equipment, it's really not worthwhile to form an alliance with them!"
Chen Ying smiled and said: "Don't you think now is the best time to subdue Yipidulu Khan's troops? The icing on the cake is like sending charcoal in the snow!"
When Chen Ying saw Ashina Gushe and Goshunur again, they had changed their appearance.Dress neatly, no smell.
Ashina Gushe said with a smile all over his face: "Thank you, General Chen, for the reward!"
Chen Ying said with a smile: "The frontier is poor, and there is a lack of money. I can't bring out any good things to greet the little Khan. When friends come, they have good wine. Let's talk about our hearts. Come, let's do it first as a respect!"
After driving such a long distance, Ashina Gushe was already tired and hungry, looking at a jar of mellow white wine, he could not restrain himself, and immediately shouted: "It's done!"
As he spoke, Ashina Gu set off the mud seal, picked up the wine jar, pointed it at his throat and poured it to the bottom, gulped down a cow's drink, actually poured the whole jar of white wine into his mouth, and tossed his hair when he finished speaking , called: "mellow and strong, good wine, good wine!"
Chen Ying just took a sip, seeing Ashina Gushe being so heroic, he said with some appreciation: "Little Khan is really heroic."
Ashina Gushe was also sincere, and said with a wry smile: "Where is the heroism, he is really greedy! To tell the truth, General Chen, Gu She has not touched a drop of alcohol for four months. For us Turkic men, no alcohol Life is worse than death if you drink it!"
A group of Turkic warriors headed by Goshunur feel sympathy for each other!
Chen Ying laughed loudly and said: "Little Khan is really quick to talk... Now Beiting City doesn't have many other things, but there is plenty of wine. Let's drink to our heart's content today, so we won't go home without getting drunk!"
The food and wine are not so rich, there are eight hot dishes and eight cold dishes, eight meat and eight vegetables, but they are all delicious in color, fragrance, and mouth watering just looking at them.The wine is pure grain wine brewed from grain, which suits Ashina Gushe's appetite. This guy didn't even have the time to look at Chen Ying's expression. .
However, these men who grew up on the grassland have to struggle for survival almost from birth. Most of them have not received any education. too much.
After Chen Ying saw how this man was eating the mad cow, he lost his appetite and toasted Ashina Gushe one cup after another.
In fact, this mellow baijiu really doesn't suit the tastes of the Central Plains people. After all, Chen Ying is not a winemaker, but simply uses the distillation process, which is strong and punchy.Otherwise, why cellar wine is popular in later generations is mainly because the wine that has just been distilled is too strong, although time has precipitated.
Ashina Gushe was eating happily, and Geshunur ran in with windy feet, and shouted in shock, "Little Khan, no...it's not good! Ahemaite is dead!"
Ashina Gushe asked in surprise: "Dead? How did he die!"
Geshunur smiled wryly, "He ate too much steamed buns and meat, and he died of hunger!"
The veins on Ashina Gushe's forehead were bulging one by one, and he wanted to scold him, but he didn't know how to scold him.It's really evil, a samurai who was as strong as a bull died at the dinner table, hell!
Chen Ying said slightly apologetically: "Little Khan, I'm really sorry, it's my fault, I didn't tell my servants to control the supply of food!"
Ashina Gu set a wry smile and said: "General Chen, this has nothing to do with you, it's because that idiot is too greedy... In fact, we can't blame him, we haven't eaten enough for more than half a year, and suddenly we saw so many good food How can he control his mouth?"
Ashina Gushe waved his hand and asked Goshunur to find a place to bury Ahemat, and don't bother him with these crap.
After Geshu Nuer left, Chen Ying asked in astonishment: "Little Khan, you said that you haven't had enough food for more than half a year. Are you really so sleepy?"
Ashina Gu said with a bitter expression: "To tell the truth, General Chen, Father Khan has never had a chance to stop and breathe since he was defeated by Ashina Helu in the battle of Doroschuan (the source of the Irtysh River today)." In one breath, the Ashina Helu soldiers have been chasing us fiercely, and those tribes that once surrendered to us have also turned against each other. They attacked us when they found an opportunity, causing us to be beaten everywhere and suffered heavy losses. Until now, only less than There are [-] people, and less than [-] war horses. There is no food in the tribe, and the skinny livestock can't fill their stomachs. Many herdsmen have reached the point where they have to change their sons to eat. This kind of embarrassment, you are unbelievable."
Chen Ying and Su Dingfang couldn't help being slightly moved when they heard the words "changing children and eating".
I don’t know how many words these four words have appeared in the history books, "Eat when you change your son, and cook when you break a bone". The tragedy of these eight words has exceeded the limit of everyone's psychological endurance, making people uncomfortable. Have the heart to read and think about it.
No matter which side this kind of thing happens on, it is worthy of sympathy, because you are a person first, and a person from any country second. As long as you are a person, there is no way to completely annihilate your conscience!
Thanks to Chen Ying being in this time and space, Datang is more powerful than in history.
Otherwise, when the Turks were at a loss, they would definitely invade Datang and transfer their losses to Datang.
Ashina Gushe is also well-informed, and knows how to read and judge facial expressions. One look at Chen Ying's expression, and he knew something was going on. He stood up while the iron was hot, and bowed deeply to Chen Ying, saying: "General Chen, Gu Shi’s father Khan’s order came to Beiting. Firstly, he hoped to restore the relationship with Datang, and the Turkic and Han peoples would continue to coexist peacefully. , General, please see that we have fought side by side with Sui to fight against the Eastern Turks, please show mercy and give us a hand!"
Speaking of this, the tough guy burst into tears, throwing away all the pride of the proud son of heaven and the prairie eagle, and knocked his head repeatedly until his forehead was bleeding.
He didn't want to put on such a humble posture, but there was nothing he could do. Every day, many tribesmen starved to death, and the Anxi Tang army defended the border wall like a copper wall, even if all the more than [-] tribesmen he brought Even if he crashed into the side wall, he couldn't break in and grab a grain of food. He really didn't have anything else to do except beg Chen Ying to show mercy.
Chen Ying hurriedly got up and helped Ashina Gushe up, and said, "Young Khan, don't do this! As the little Khan said, the Turks and the Tang Dynasty are one, and your ministry is in trouble. I also express my deep sympathy and am willing to help Give it to you, but..."
Ashina Gushe was startled, and said, "But what?"
Chen Ying murmured: "After all, Anxi has been ravaged by war and is dilapidated. It has just recovered a little bit of energy, and I'm afraid it won't be able to provide much food. Besides, many businesses spent a lot of money on reclamation in Anxi this time. We can't let them All the money was wasted, right?"
Ash Gu set his heart down, and said hastily: "General Chen, please rest assured, we Turkic men also know good and evil, the General has helped us, we will do our best to repay you, and we will not let you suffer!"
After speaking, he knelt down again and said, "General Chen, please, please save us!"
