Chapter 6 Turning Hands into Clouds
Chapter 6: Turning hands into clouds
"Is it possible that Khan knew that Murong Sanzang was rebellious and still wanted to go against me, the Great Sui Dynasty? Khan should not forget that if Khan had not been able to obtain his current status safely, would Khan be so ungrateful?" Seeing the sudden hesitation, Changsun Sheng blamed him again.
Changsun Sheng's accusation made Tuli feel ashamed and even more embarrassed. If he had been replaced by a slightly irritable Khan, he would have been commented so rudely, no matter the consequences, he would be about to turn against him.
But Tuli has always been unrestrained. Sha Boluo had no hope for his son because of his timidity. He would rather hand over military power to his younger brother Chu Luohou than give his own son many tribes. Thinking of the terrible strength of the Great Sui Dynasty, Tuli endured his anger several times.
"The envoy of Changsun, Khan was not unwilling to serve the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty, but the grassland was in a difficult situation. The men came here through mountains and rivers, not only did they not get any benefits, but if they wanted to attack their original allies, they would probably have misunderstandings. Once the trouble broke out, even Khan didn't know how to appease him?" An experienced Turkic nobleman hurriedly rescued his Khan.
"So that's it." Changsun Sheng relaxed his face and smiled: "So, as long as he gets money, the Turkic son can contribute to the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty."
Hearing the looseness of Changsun Sheng's mouth, he suddenly looked at his confidants and showed joy on his face. If he could still get a lot of wealth from the Great Sui Dynasty, then the gains from this trip would be too rich. What would it be to sacrifice Murong Sanzang?
"Yes, yes, as long as Changsun Gui can take out the wealth rewarded to his children, Xiao Han will definitely live up to the orders of the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty and eliminate the rebellion of the Sui Dynasty." Tu Li nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
Changsun Sheng secretly scolded the Turks for being greedy. Since that's the case, he would have no burden to deceive the Turks. Changsun Sheng put away his aggressive attitude at the beginning and his smile became kind: "Don't worry, Khan, the emperor has entrusted the entire power to take charge of the emperor. My country of Sui is rich and the people are strong, and it is not a problem to have a mere wealth. I wonder how many people Khan brought this time?"
"There are a total of 100,000 wolf cavalry." Tuli doubled his troops.
"Okay, based on the calculation of 100,000 wolf cavalry, as long as Khan can destroy Murong Sanzang, I will report to the emperor that each wolf cavalry will reward one piece of Shu satin, two pieces of cotton, five kilograms of tea, five kilograms of fine salt, and ten jin of money..."
Changsun Sheng reported a long list of rewards, and all the Turkic nobles drooled. These things were calculated based on 100,000 copies, which was much more generous than Murong Sanzang. If they rely on robbing, they would not be able to grab so much property ten times. The more detailed the Changsun Sheng read, the more they believed in Changsun Sheng's sincerity.
"Changsun Guizhi, Xiao Khan Daierlang, thank the Emperor of the Great Sui Dynasty for the reward. As long as the Emperor of the Great Sui Dynasty has an order, my 100,000 wolf cavalry of the Great Turks will serve the Emperor at any time." Tuli wanted to pat his chest and promise Changsun Sheng.
The more Duo heard it, the more something was wrong. At the beginning, Changsun Sheng treated his father Khan as his subordinate and scolded him casually. Now he even told him to serve the Sui Ting. You must know that their original intention was to take advantage of the alternation of the new and old emperors of the Great Sui and bit the Great Sui and put some blood on the Great Sui, so as not to be too strong. Now he wants to serve the Great Sui again. Isn't it going against the way? Although you can get a lot of wealth, how can wealth be compared with the re-rise of the Great Turks?
"Haven, father, I have something to say..."
Duo quickly stood up from his seat, but he was about to express his objection when he was pulled by the two old nobles on both sides and whispered: "Three Prince, now Sui is strong and I am weak, so don't be too hasty."
"Duo, the Great Sui angel is here, don't talk nonsense." Tuli glared at his son fiercely. He was different from his son. Although he was ambitious, he was just more greedy for enjoyment. With so many things, what else could he fight? Besides, he was also afraid of the Great Sui. When his father Khan was there, the Turks were so powerful. At that time, it was not so good to the Great Sui, let alone now, he was afraid that his son would destroy his good things.
Dun looked at the Turkic nobles on both sides. Everyone looked greedy on their faces. They sighed in their hearts. They had to take back their objections and changed their words: "Father Khan, the road is closed on the grassland now. The men are eager to return to the grassland. They don't know when the Emperor of the Great Sui Dynasty will be rewarded. If it is too late, I'm afraid that even if they get the reward, they will not have the will to fight. They can only wait until next year to serve the Emperor of the Great Sui Dynasty."
The implication is that the Turkic people do not show off their eagles, even if they see the rabbit, if they see it, they will go back first. Duo made up their minds. Although the Sui Dynasty is rich and powerful, it is impossible to take out such a large number of supplies. As long as it is dragged for more than ten days, the army will return, at least there is no need to meet Murong Sanzang and fight, and the Sui Ting will be in vain.
Everyone looked at Changsun Sheng with eager eyes. Although they believed that Changsun Sheng was not a joke, they would definitely be better if they heard the words of Duo.
Changsun Sheng's face became stern again: "Khan Qimin, originally represented the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty, and had a golden and jade word. If the Khan did not trust the Emperor of the People, he would immediately send someone back to the capital to report the Emperor directly. Yan Khan had no sincerity. How could the major military affairs be delayed because of the lack of reward? If Murong Sanzang was let go, the emperor would be furious and raise a million troops, and the Eastern Turks would be plucked up."
Tuli's face turned white in an instant. The entire Eastern Turkic men, women, and young people now have only 500,000 or 600,000 people. If the Great Sui Dynasty really raises a million troops, the Eastern Turkic will fall apart. Even if he escapes, his best fate is to wander on the grassland, and he is likely to be killed directly by his subordinates or by a large tribe.
He shivered and woke up from his greedy expression just now: "Changsun Gui's envoy forgives his sins, but Duo just speaks without saying anything. How could Xiaohan not believe in the envoy? The little beast, but he still blames Changsun Gui's envoy for accompanying him."
Others also woke up from their fantasies. The Great Sui Dynasty could not hand over so much material immediately. They didn't have much time to wait. They could only wipe out Murong Sanzang first, and then return with the reward from the Great Sui Dynasty. What the third prince said was indeed a difficult thing. For a moment, all his eyes were focused on Duo, with all his eyes blaming him.
Duo was so sad that he almost started to cry. If he hadn't had enough wings, he would have left immediately. At this time, he could only bow his head and bow to Changsun Sheng: "Changsun Gui, Xiao Wang is young, please forgive me."
"If I hadn't thought that you were young and ignorant, and the son of Khan Qiming, and said such words, I would never let you go without courtesy."
"Yes, thank you, the envoy Changsun."
Duozi retreated aside with a pale face. Seeing Duozi's experience, no one dared to interfere easily. The camp tent calmed down for a moment and his eyes were on Changsun Sheng, as if Changsun Sheng was the Turkic Khan.
Changsun Sheng lowered his voice and discussed with Tuli about the extermination of Murong Sanzang. Finally, three days later, the Turkic army launched an attack on Murong Sanzang. Before that, Changsun Sheng would also transport five thousand pieces of silk and ten thousand pieces of cotton from Mayi, plus other materials as rewards, accounting for about one-twentieth of the entire reward.
Even so, these substances exceeded the total robbery of the Turks. So many substances were almost the limit that Mayi could take. Thinking of his wives, concubines and children on the grasslands being able to wear silk clothes all over his body, all the Turkic nobles wished they could arrive early three days.
Just as Changsun Sheng turned his hand into the Turkic tent and turned into rain, Murong Sanzang also returned to his military camp. His younger brother Murong Jianzhong, nephew Murong Shao, Murong Gui, Murong Kun and others came to greet him, and the eldest brother and uncle kept calling him.
Murong Sanzang's face looked correct: "Second brother, Brother Yu has agreed to the siege. The attack will start tomorrow. You will pass the orders immediately and let the troops be prepared!"
Murong Jianzhong was over fifty years old, strong and had a fierce look on his face. He laughed loudly when he heard this: "Don't worry, brother, the men are already impatient. As long as he gave an order, I, Baozhun men, would rush into Mayi with a scream."
Murong Sanzang's face darkened: "Second brother, don't forget our purpose. Mayi must not be broken in advance, and my Murong family's son cannot be harmed here."
Murong Jianzhong's laughter suddenly dropped, and his face changed to a bitter look. The happiest thing for him was to kill people happily on the battlefield with his subordinates, but he had to shrink his hands and feet this time to attack the city. How could he feel happy? He had to nodded in his head: "Brother, I understand."
Murong Sanzang ignored the second brother and turned to the other person and ordered: "Shao'er, send someone to keep an eye on the Turkic tent and see if there is any movement?"
"Yes." Murong Shao agreed and asked in confusion: "Uncle, is it that the Turks are unreliable?"
Everyone became nervous. The Great Sui Dynasty was so strong. Of course they knew that if there were no Turks as their backers, let alone breaking Mayi, they could only escape as far as they could now.
"Hmph, a Turkic man sneaked in and reported to Tuli when he was having a banquet. Tuli looked strange, but he refused to say it clearly that he was necessary to guard against others. Although we need to rely on Turkic people, it is difficult to say whether Turkic people will be our backers. If they don't take it seriously, we will be wronged if they are sold by Turkic people."
