Chapter 42: Awakening and Concession

Jie Li's words suddenly made Lan Yi change, and Wu Mo's expression changed drastically, and he could hardly believe his ears: the so-called Shuobei Grassland is the large grassland north of Shuofang. For this grassland, the talented and powerful Qin Shihuang took Meng Tian as a general, and 300,000 troops attacked the Xiongnu in the north to take this place for himself. During the reign of Emperor Wu, Wei Qing once again took this place from the Turks.

Emperor Wu of Han sent troops to garrison with the proposal of his minister Zhufu Yan, and regarded Shuofang as a strategic location for "expanding China and destroying Hu".

This Shuofang also developed in the Han Dynasty and became a military fortress.

Throughout history, whoever occupy the Central Plains and the grassland peoples will take the strategic initiative. This has long been recognized. The decline of the Sui Dynasty and the rise of the Turks. On the surface, it is still in the hands of the Han people Liang Shidu, but in fact, the Liang Shidu really controls only one-third of the Shuofang. The real rich land of Shuofang, the Shuobei grassland, was occupied by the Turks and became the pastures of the Turks. The Shuofang, which had lost its essence, only an empty shell was left.

As the janitor of the Turks, although Liang Shidu was nominally the Emperor of Daliang, he actually deceived himself at the right time, so he said that he was a prince and was a little incompetent.

Therefore, although the Liang army was destroyed, Liang Luoren was killed, and Shuofang City was given to the Tang Dynasty, in fact, the Tang Dynasty controlled only the fortress of Shuofang City. The vast grassland north of Shuofang was still under the control of the Turks.

There are three tribes living on the fertile grassland of Shuobei Grassland, namely the most powerful Ashina tribe, and the suddenly stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn stubborn st

The three tribes divided the grasslands in Shuobei and became the royal family of the Turks. The Asina tribe should have occupied the most abundant grasslands. After a sudden change, Wu Mo was jealous and could only be upset about his lack of strength.

They had been coveting the grassland occupied by the Asina tribe for a long time. This time, the Asina tribe was destroyed. Not only did the two of them not rescued in time after hearing the news, they gathered in a place to discuss how to divide the grassland and swallow the territory of Asina Congli peacefully. But they soon learned about the news that Shuofang had Luo Shixin occupied.

This terrible news is not easy for them to be a bolt from the blue.

Shuofang City is not very far away from the Shuobei Grassland. Once the Tang Dynasty has established its foundation in Shuofang, it has the urinary nature of Luo Shixin. Even if Shuofang is in the hands of Liang Shidu, he will not hesitate to cross the uncrossed Baiyu Mountain and come to the Turks to "hun"... The two "hunting" destroyed a large tribe of almost 100,000 people. This time, it has been directly connected with the Turks and became a close neighbor. Then, it will go deep into the hinterland of the Turks for three or two days to sweep them?

Under the bed, a fierce and evil spirit slept. The sticky suddenly came, and both Wumo felt that it was not good.

It was unanimously planned that Shuofang must be taken back no matter what. Only in this way can they live a comfortable life on the grassland: Luo Shixin's existence has allowed this group of grassland people to experience the worried life of the people in the Central Plains on the border.

So when they met, the two expressed their grief and wanted to avenge Ashina Congli and attack Shuofang with all their might. Taking advantage of the fact that the Tang army had not yet gained a foothold, they brought Shuofang back again.

But facing their strong help, Jie Li actually asked them to withdraw from the Shuobei grassland and let them leave the rich Shuofang. How could he tolerate this?

"King, what do you mean?" Jian Yi suddenly became unkind and his eyes showed strong dissatisfaction. They were like Turks who lived with grass. However, there were certain geographical restrictions, otherwise they would be in chaos. The abundant water and grass in the Shuobei Grassland was their ideal home. How could they be willing to let them leave their homes? At the same time, in the hearts of the Turks, the pastures of their grassland ethnic groups that have always come from Shuofang Grassland to their mortal enemies, and they could not stand it.

Wu Mo was also angry and shouted, "King Khan, this decision will cause great shame to all the men on my grassland. I, Turks, cannot surrender like the Central Plains, no matter what... Is it just a Luo Shixin, who actually makes you afraid of being like this? Do you still have the right to be the Khan of my Turks?"

Jie Li's expression did not change much, but his eyes became sharper, and he said, "I have never understood why my father Khan did not fight to the death with the Sui Dynasty to the end, and why the King of the Turks willingly used his murderous sword to cut the horse grass on the roadside under the sun. Now I understand that his strength is not as good as others, and he insists on for the so-called face and arrogant, which will only push me, Turks to the Jedi. Yes, I lost, now I admit it. I have indeed lost to Luo Shixin many times, and I am indeed not as good as Tang.

The failures of the Chao Dynasty cannot make you understand? The Tang Dynasty is no longer the object we used to knead at the first time. Especially the Turks, who broke through the two halves under the tricks of the Tang Dynasty. Continuing to entangle Shuofang in one place is equivalent to fighting on both ends. Where did we get the strength? I was open and not retreating, it would perish. If I don’t admit defeat, it would be destruction. I, Jie Li, have been holding on until now, and I realized that I have made the most wrong decision. This decision killed my uncle. We Turks have already embarked on the road of no return, and we must not continue to make mistakes."

Jie Li inherited the throne of his father and brother and rose to the Turks. At that time, the Turks began to dominate the grasslands because of the rise of Shibi Khan. Their strength overcame the Great Sui Dynasty in civil strife. Jie Li rose to the peak of the Turks when they were in the prime of the Turks. He was ambitious and ambitious, constantly interfering in the government affairs of the Central Plains, creating civil strife in the Central Plains, so that the Turks would continue to be strong forever.

However, when he ascended the throne, the Tang Dynasty had already gained a foothold in Guanzhong and began to rise.

Jie Li saw the threat from the Tang Dynasty to the Turks at that time, and constantly supported the forces targeting the Tang Dynasty, and even paid money, grain, and soldiers to curb the development of the Tang Dynasty.

His methods did cause great trouble to the Tang Dynasty, especially supporting Liu Heita's rise, which caused the Tang Dynasty to lose its troops and generals.

However, heroes come from troubled times, and heroes create momentum.

In the Tang Dynasty, there were heroes like Li Yuan, descendants like Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin. There were also civil officials like Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Wei Zheng, Pei Ju, Xiao Yu, and Li Jing, the military gods who could rank among the best in history in the world, as well as Li Shiji, Hou Junji, Duan Zhixuan and many other war generals.

Faced with a terrifying lineup like the Tang Dynasty, the situation of unifying the world is not something that the Turks can interfere just by wanting to.

Even without Luo Shixin in history, Jie Li failed to succeed, not to mention that there is another Luo Shixin. Jie Li's wishful thinking is even more unreliable.

No matter what means he used, he could not stop the rise of the Tang Dynasty.

Jie Li's failure in recent years was not because they were weaker. Compared to the beginning of his ascension, the strength of the Turks had increased. However, the progress of the Tang Dynasty far surpassed the Turks, so that they unknowingly caught up with the Turks and even surpassed them.

Jie Li never wanted to admit this, nor did their arrogant Turkic people realize it.

I still think that the people of the Central Plains are still a nation that can be bullied by them at will, and they are still so weak, and they regard the mistake as Jie Li's incompetence.

Because of this, Jie Li was unable to admit defeat and kept holding on. While experiencing disputes over the grassland, he had to take care of the Tang Dynasty, while taking care of Shuofang, etc....

He was decisive and used more and more chaos, which directly led to a vital battle, and he was defeated by sudden losses.

After that defeat, Jie Li thought a lot and realized the problem. He just kept hesitating whether to admit defeat, whether to take a big step back, and withdraw from the situation of multi-faceted restraint, so as to focus on dealing with sudden losses.

Ashin Congli's death in battle and the fall of Shuofang City, a series of things came one after another, directly awakening Jie Li.

Realizing his mistake, realizing that the Turks had already walked on the cliff, gradually heading towards a path of no return.

Failure is the mother of success!

The essence of knowledge left by the ancients is extremely precious. Failure can temper people's will and inspire people's fighting spirit. Being able to face failure calmly and survive failure will inevitably lead to success.

Faced with this disadvantage, Jie Li gave up the self-esteem of the Turkic Khan, admitted his failure, and chose to retreat.

Avoid the sharpness of the Tang Dynasty and avoided Luo Shixin's invincible sword and returned to the grasslands further north to develop.

Jie Li suddenly came to the front of Wumo, and he admitted his failure calmly, rode his beloved horse, and looked at the grassland where Ashina Congli said, "The Khan's order has been issued, and whether you listen to it depends on you. If you want to continue to stay, when Luo Shixin attacks you in the future, don't ask me for help. The Turks now have no capital to fight against the Tang Dynasty. If you go to join Tuli, you will be able to do it. But from the moment you decide, you will be my enemy. The Khan of the Turks, Ashinamohedushe, will never be ruthless to his enemies..." As he said, he looked at Shuofang and said, "I Jie Li admit defeat, but I will not give in. The land that is always wild and difficult to tame exists. We Turks will never surrender. If you are willing to continue to follow me, and when we have the ability to fight against Li Tang, we will take you back."

After saying that, Jie Li whipped away, leaving very simply, without hesitation at all, and ignored the sudden fall of the sticky rage, Wu Mo.

Suddenly, Wu Mo looked at Jie Li's back from a distance, and said nothing at all.

"King Khan, it seems different!" Umo suddenly said something.

Lan Yan nodded silently and said, "I also feel... we have been together for many years and are not afraid to tell you. It turns out that I didn't see this Khan in my eyes, and I felt that the decline of the Turks was caused by his incompetence. Now, for some reason, I feel frightened by him. I decided to follow the Khan's instructions and leave the Shuobei grassland."

Wu Mo was not as decisive as Jian Yi. After hesitating for a while, he finally nodded and said, "I will stay alone and I can't deal with Luo Shixin. Let's go together." (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, the novel is better and faster!
