In the golden tent of the Khan King of the Tiel Khan Court in the Beihai, Tiel Khan Yinan frowned with a frown.

This time, the troops were originally sent to rob the situation, but who knew that the chicken was not enough to steal the chicken and then lost a handful of rice. Nearly 80,000 cavalrymen on the expedition, and there were less than 20,000 people who fled back to the North Sea.

Since Yi Nan established the Tiel Khanate by treating the Xueyantuo tribe as the foundation, although he has almost taken over the six tribes of the nine tribes of Tiel, there are still Tiel tribes like Geniro, who are basically in the Western Regions, following the Turks. Especially this time, rather than saying that he was defeated by the Turks, they are actually just suicide and murder between Tiel and Tiel.

The Turks annihilated and captured more than 50,000 of them, and they also bit the Turks fiercely. According to reports from their subordinates, in this battle, more than 100 large and small tribes of grassland that defected to the Turks and killed nearly 100,000 people. During the several rounds of battle with the Turks, they killed almost 30,000 enemies.

This is a result of both sides suffering. The originally fertile grassland can no longer find a complete tribe.

There was silence in the tent, and the loss this time was too great. The Turkic grassland was very large. In the past, the Eastern Turkic people were in the south, and they were in the north. But even if the Eastern Turkic grassland was the strongest at Shibi Khan, the population of the grassland tribe was only a few million.

In recent years, the grasslands were long damaged by Shibi's southern expedition and the Western Turks' eastward advance, Tiel, Xi and Wu countries became independent.

In terms of territory, although they had just lost another game, the boundless grasslands still allow them to temporarily protect them.

Chen Pojun said it very well. In war, the distance between territory is actually the best defense.

The vast grasslands made the war even more difficult. Even if the Turks win one first, it would not be easy to fight to the Tiel Khan Court in the Beihai. What they are most worried about now is people, and they have lost so many soldiers in one battle. This is a trauma.

Under the throne of Khan, the leaders of the six Tiel tribes, Pugu, Tongluo, Uighur, Bayegu, Fuluo, and Xueyantuo, all looked up at Yinan. Behind the leaders of the six tribes, Shi Jin, were also among the leaders of the Tiel tribes with a slightly smaller size, Mengchen, Turuhe, Sijie, Hun, Huxue, and Qigu.

"Khan, what should we do now?" Qi Jin of the Pugu tribe is a strong man in his early thirties. At the end of October, the climate in the North Sea was already very cold, but the man was only wearing a beast robe, and his chest was open, revealing a piece of black chest hair. When he was asking, the young leader of one of the six major tribes of Tiel, his eyes were red.

During this war, the Pugu tribe, one of the six major tribes, was the most severely damaged. Even his father, as the leader of the tribe, died in battle by the Solingshui River, and his corpse could not be brought back. When Puli took over the position of Shi Jin in the face of danger, the most urgent thing was to lead the tribesmen to seek revenge on the Turks.

The leader of the Tongluo tribe, Qi Jinhuli, who is also one of the six tribes, shook his gray beard and frowned, saying, "After this battle, the entire Monan has turned back to the Turks again. Even if there are still those who are still standing on our side, they will definitely be cleaned up. We lost 50,000 troops in this battle, and there are less than 30,000 soldiers in the Khan Court. Even if we call all the herdsmen of Tiele to the battlefield, we will probably only get 50,000 more. Only a small number of these are young and strong men, and most of them are young and old. The big khan, as the cold winter is approaching, many of our herdsmen have not prepared enough food in their tents this year. Moreover, if the Turks win this battle, they will not be willing to stop. We will definitely continue to chase them. By then, we are short of soldiers and food. How can we deal with the battle?"

Puli said angrily, "What should I do? Can't I just wait for death like this? Da Khan, my Puli is not talented, and I am willing to lead all 8,000 cavalry of my Pugu tribe to fight. I only ask Da Khan to allocate food and grass, and then pull out seven or eight thousand horses for me. The men of my Pugu tribe would rather stand to die than be born on their knees. The hatred of killing my father and slaughtering the clan is irreconcilable."

Lao Huli shook his head and sighed: "The courage of the servant waiting for the jin is of course commendable, but this is not the time to show off his meaning. Now our Tielle has reached the most critical moment. If one is not good, it is possible to destroy the country and destroy the clan. Although the family feud is great, the national feud is even greater. The fate of the entire tribe is entrusted to us at this time. How can we be careless? We still need to think of a successful plan."

The Tu Midu of the Uighur tribe, the Qijin Yao Geluo tribe, watched the crowd quarreled and shook his head and sneered. Among the Tiel tribes, the Uighur tribe is the second only to the Xueyantuo tribe. At the beginning, the Tiel tribe was the strongest, but unfortunately, the Xue tribe later produced a man who merged the two medium-sized Xue tribes and Yantuo tribes with powerful skills. As a result, it surpassed the Uighur tribe in one fell swoop and became the most powerful Tiel tribe.

Tu Midu also had the idea of ​​getting rid of the Turkic independence, but later he had several open and secret struggles with Yi Nan, but in the end he lost to Yi Nan. He did not reconcile and did not obey the oath and followed Yi Nan, and supported him as the Khan of the Tiel Khanate after his independence.

In this war, all tribes were greatly damaged, and even the Xueyantuo tribe suffered losses, but the Uighur tribe had few casualties, especially Tu Midu's own medicine, Geluo tribe, who was not injured. In this way, the one with the strongest troops in his hands was actually Tu Midu. In this case, Tu Midu couldn't help but feel a little ready to move.

He coughed and attracted everyone's attention. Tu Midu snorted coldly, "Old Huoli, everyone knows that you are an old fox, but in the current situation, what do you mean by saying these words that damage your morale? Do you mean to make us surrender to the Turks?"

As soon as the words of the snore came out, the leaders of the tribes in the tent suddenly became wide-eyed. Huli of the Tongluo tribe has always been cunning and was privately called the old fox by the leaders of the tribes. Tongluo was also very damaged this time, so it is possible for this guy to surrender.

Everyone stared at Huli fiercely. Over the years, the Tiel tribes have been exploited by the Turkic tribes and their lives are difficult. Now that they have become independent, who is willing to surrender to the Turkic tent again? What's more, the Turkic leader is not the leader of the Eastern Turkic, but the Western Turkic people who have fought dozens of recent wars with them. Not to mention the damage to this battle, in the past sixty or seventy years, many Tiel's men have fallen on the battlefield?

"I will never surrender to the Turks when I die!" This is the voice of the Tiel leaders. On the one hand, it is certainly due to years of hatred accumulation, but on the other hand, it is also because most leaders understand in their hearts that the Turks now have a comprehensive advantage and are about to take the opportunity to completely conquer them. Even if they are willing to surrender, the result will be no different from the defeat of resistance. Instead of doing this, it is better to fight.

When Tu Midu saw his words, everyone reacted so much. Looking at Huli's embarrassing and deciphering, he couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart.

Yi Nan hummed heavily and looked at everyone with dissatisfaction.

When everyone calmed down, Yi Nan turned coldly to vomit, and an invisible force was oppressed towards him.

"Tuzzle the mystery, just say whatever you have. Why go around like this? You have to say it in the end?" Yi Nan's words meant to be intimidated by him.

Tu Midu felt a stern in his heart, and he thought that although Yi Nan was defeated this time, he was not confused. He did not dare to look down upon it at the moment, and said seriously: "Khan, now we are trapped in the Beihai, with only a few defeated soldiers and generals, and the soldiers are not satisfied with equipment, but food is not satisfied. Before the first heavy snow, the Turks' 100,000 troops may come here. And we are dying enemies with the Turks, and we will never stop. If we fight, we will not surrender. What should we do?"

"What should I do?" Several leaders couldn't help but ask.

After being insulted, everyone was anxious and said slowly: "In my opinion, if you can't beat it, you can only reduce it."

"What, surrender, I just chopped you up." The servant was about to rush over with hatred.

Seeing this, Tu Midu hurriedly said, "Of course it was not to surrender to the Turks, but to join other people."

When everyone who was about to rush up and beat him was stunned for a moment.

"Who to join? On this prairie, the sacred tribe was originally one of the Tiel, but now it has become independent. There are also the Xi State and the Khitan, which were originally one of the Turks, but it has already become independent. As for the Wei State, it was directly annexed by the Chen State. Even the Marine Barbarians in the West, the most beautiful sea-sea-western world were all following the Chen State. There are no major tribes that are difficult to fight against the Turks in the vast sea-western desert, northern Liaodong, and there are no major tribes that are difficult to fight against the Turks?

Seeing everyone's puzzled look, Tu Midu said, "Khan, when our army fought against the Turks a few days ago, the soldiers left by our Uighur tribe in the north of the desert discovered a team of business travelers."

Everyone became more and more confused. When is it time? What business travel should I control in this leisure time? After Liaodong gradually stabilized over the years, more and more business travelers have penetrated into the grasslands of northern Demon. Everyone is familiar with it. I don’t know what to say.

Only Huoli and Yi Nan looked like they had a look, and they seemed to understand something in their eyes.

"Can they be it?"

Tu Midu smiled slightly: "Yes, it's them."

Everyone was even more confused when they heard this, and the servant shouted, "Who are they? Why can't I understand?"

Yi Nan was overjoyed and didn't care about helping the subordinates to solve their doubts. He hurriedly said to Tu Midu: "Since it's them, please invite them quickly. Ben Khan wants to see them immediately, immediately."

Tu Midu nodded, waved his hand to the tent, and called his guard to whisper a few instructions.

After a while, a sound of footsteps came from outside the tent. When the curtain was lifted, several men walked in.

The light in the tent dimmed. After all the people came in, Puli suddenly realized that the people who came in were indeed a group of Central Plains people. But it was strange that these people at this time were not dressed as fur merchants, but were all dressed in neat clothes. The leader was purple robe, jade belt, beam crown, hanging a horizontal knife, and holding a scepter in his hand.

Seeing this outfit, everyone was stunned and they all understood. They finally knew who Tu Midu and Yi Nan were just talking about.

They were envoys of the Great Chen, and now the only Da Chen Dynasty in the world that can compete with the Turks and gain the upper hand.
