Chapter 212 Recluse
The biggest concern is the authenticity of sudden and false words. If there is falsehood in it, once you step into the trap, the result will inevitably be endless.
According to the previous agreement, Tu Lishi will send people to escort Xie Yi and Di Zhixun along the path and avoid the pursuit of Xueyantuo people Nanguiyin Mountain and the Yellow River.
Now that the escort guide has arrived, Xie Yi dared not leave.
If the so-called guidance and escort are tricks and traps, I am afraid that I and Di Zhixun will not have the chance to go home at all, and will only corpses in the wilderness, and even the bones will not exist.
If you are killed by Xueyantuo people on the grassland, or encounter any danger when you flee independently, if you encounter misfortune, you will at least sacrifice your life for the country and be considered a martyr.
But if you die outside without understanding, it is not certain. After all, there is a suspicion of abandoning the entourage's entourage and escaping alone. Whether it is slandered by the Xueyantuo people or being criticized by people in the Tang Dynasty in the future, it will be very unfavorable to your reputation.
The saddest thing is to be accused of being killed when a person dies.
Even if Xie Yi doesn't care, he has to consider his beautiful wife and young sister at home. Ordinary Tang soldiers will be killed and their families will receive considerable pensions and subsidies, let alone an earl. Besides, Di Zhixun is there after all, he obviously cares more about his "fame behind him" and his funerals.
Of course, these are things to consider when you have to be absolutely necessary.
At this moment, the first thing to consider is how to escape from this place of right and wrong, and being able to go back alive is better than anything else.
But people who suddenly lose money cannot believe it. No matter whether they are false or sincere, they cannot believe it. Even if they end up being criticized by ignoring good people's hearts, it doesn't matter.
Especially the messenger of the Tulith Khan kept "urging", which was a little abnormal.
so……
After thinking about it, Xie Yi winked and Xue Shang immediately took action. This messenger... is not enough to stun, so I regret that he can only lose his life. The partners who came with him were treated the same way.
"Shisan Duke Di, I'm sorry, Xue Yantuo people are not trustworthy, we can only find a way for ourselves.
Di Zhixun shook his head and said, "Xiaoyao is too worried. Your approach is right. All we want is this opportunity to escape from the sight of Xueyantuo people. As for the sudden loss, it is not my race, so we should not believe it easily."
Xie Yi was very grateful for such a colleague who knew the truth and was easy to get along with. He nodded immediately and said, "The days ahead may be a little difficult. I hope Mr. Di will forgive me and I am mentally prepared."
Di Zhixun smiled and said, "It's just a little hard work. Although I'm a little older, I can still eat this little bit of pain."
"Okay, let's set off now." Xie Yi turned around and said, "Yebei, I have to trouble you with some things."
"If you are responsible for your own affairs, please don't worry." Then someone put on Xie Yi and Di Zhixun's clothes and fled to the east.
Therefore, it is necessary to set up a suspicious array. Only by leading Xue Yantuo's pursuit soldiers and confusing them can you have a chance to escape.
On this point, Xie Yi dared not be vague at all!
Fortunately, Ye Bei, a master who is good at tracking, is naturally capable of doing enough homework in counter-tracking.
In addition to someone pretending to be Xie Yi and Di Zhixun to lead the pursuers away, the traces of their actions along the way will be erased as much as possible, reducing the possibility of being discovered by Xueyantuo people and tracking them down.
Di Zhixun was a little worried and said, "Xiaoyao, will it be dangerous for your subordinate to lead the pursuers to escape?"
"Don't worry, as long as the pursuers are led away, they will immediately restore their true colors. They will be hidden among the herdsmen and merchants and will not be easily discovered."
After hearing Ye Bei's statement, Di Zhixun felt a little relieved, but Xie Yi looked up at the distant back and felt a little worried.
Although Ye Bei said it very easily, his expression was quite nervous. Obviously, this matter was not that simple. It would be fine if it was the city and countryside of the Central Plains, but it would be less easy to hide it in the grassland.
By the same token, it is difficult for me to hide my own behavior and there is always the possibility of being discovered. In order to buy time for myself, those who pretend to behave must work harder and take risks.
so……
For a moment, Xie Yi didn't know what to say, and felt a little nervous for no reason. I hope they could go back safely. As long as they return to Chang'an, they would never treat them badly. Having such subordinates is really a blessing from the three lives of cultivation, which is extremely precious.
Without too much time delay, Xie Yi and Di Zhixun set off immediately and soon disappeared into the vast mountains and disappeared.
...
Several hours after Xie Yi and others disappeared, the Xueyantuo people finally discovered the abnormality.
The first thing I found out was a team that should have ambushed the envoys of the Tang Dynasty. At the scheduled location, they waited for a long time, but no trace of the waiting target was found.
Then he reported the Khan tent in time, and naturally a series of investigations were made, so he discovered the subordinates who were knocked out and killed, Tulishi.
When I saw this situation, my sudden loss changed! How should I explain the situation in front of me?
There is no doubt that at this moment, he no longer needs to hide his true face. He has indeed deceived Xie Yi and Di Zhixun.
but……
It seems to be unsuccessful!
If there is a reasonable explanation for the situation in front of you, the most appropriate thing is that the Tang people saw through their true faces, never believed in themselves from beginning to end, and did not escape according to their own arrangements.
Of course, there is another possibility.
Maybe something happened or something unexpected happened. Someone killed his own people and robbed the envoys of the Tang Dynasty. But on Xue Yantuo's ground, this possibility was very slim.
So, the first and only reasonable explanation.
Xie Yi used the trick and deceived himself in turn, thinking that he could make the people of the Tang Dynasty fall into trouble, but in the end he was deceived.
For a moment, I couldn't help but feel a little depressed.
But after a moment, he felt that it didn't matter. What if he saw through his plan? In just a few hours, Xie Yi and Di Zhixun were still on Xue Yantuo's ground, could they still fly?
As long as you stop them before escaping from Xue Yantuo, everything will be fine and there will be no big problem.
"Father Khan, Hu Lu Xiao Khan, don't worry. The Khan's tent is far away from the border of the Tang Dynasty, so it is not easy to escape. Send troops to search immediately, it should be too late."
Tuli made a promise to Yi Nan and Hu Lu of the Western Turks, but the original generous style of the limelight disappeared.
Seeing the scene in front of him, Hu Lu was disappointed. At least it was stable. However, Yi Nan's expression was not very good. He was nervous to make this decision, but now there was an accident. Things failed to happen according to his expectations and control, which was not a good sign.
But the arrow has left the string and there is no room for repentance or retreat. Could it be...
Hu Lu Xiao Khan, who was standing beside him, hurriedly said, "Zhenzhu Khan, things can't be half-hearted, otherwise it will only be worse. Please tell me clearly. If you want to be safe, you might as well prepare early and send a prince to set up a south to prepare earlier."
"Great and generous?" Yi Nan muttered his son's name softly, and suddenly he felt a little confused, but suddenly Li Shi showed a proud smile on his lips.
But there is a problem with everything, it is to capture the envoys of the Tang Dynasty, otherwise everything will be useless.
...
The "search and rescue" against the envoys of the Tang Dynasty was launched immediately, perhaps just in case, or perhaps because of some concerns. At the current stage, Xue Yantuo did not dare to publicly claim to be against the Tang Dynasty, and he did not dare to blatantly pursue and murder the envoys of the Tang Dynasty.
Therefore, the statement given to the outside world is that when you go to the mountains to hunt, the envoys of the Tang Dynasty were lost or murdered and temporarily disappeared.
Upon hearing this news, Sun Wukai, the captain of Zhaowu who stayed in Xueyantuo Khan's tent, immediately filed a solemn protest to Zhenzhu Khan and demanded that he be searched and rescued as soon as possible. If the envoys of the Tang Dynasty made mistakes in Xueyantuo, they would not be able to bear the responsibility.
Since he wanted to pretend, he had to pretend to be like him. Although he was unsure, Sun Wukai still showed the courage to train in Jiucheng Palace, showing the heroism and mightyness of an envoy of the Supreme Kingdom.
He knew better than anyone else what happened. When Xie Yi and Di Zhixun found him and asked to leave, he knew that there would be the current situation.
Although the two envoys seemed to be unauthorized, after listening to the analysis in detail and understanding the situation, Sun Wukai accepted it. He knew very well that according to the current situation, it would be difficult for everyone to escape unscathed, so it would be better to find a way to let the two envoys leave first.
After all, Xie Yi and Di Zhixun have a valuable identity and shoulder heavy responsibilities, at least transmitting the information from Xue Yantuo back. Moreover, after they left, they and the remaining soldiers might be safer here.
Before this, Sun Wukai was not sure that the fact would be like this, but he thought that he could not do the task of protecting the two envoys, which was somewhat of a dereliction of duty.
So when encountering such a crisis in front of you, it is natural that you should make some sacrifices. Even if you are cheated by Xueshi Xie and Shilang Di, you will be willing to do so. As long as they return to Chang'an, they can treat their parents and family well, it will be worthy of their sacrifice. The only pity is that the wife has not yet left a seed for the marriage she just signed up for.
However, judging from the situation just now, perhaps as Xie Xueshi and Shi Lang Di expected, I am safe for the time being. So as long as I can go back safely this time, I will make another great contribution, and the two senior officials must be grateful and compensate for their debts to me. In this way, my future is limitless, and the Sun family may be about to make a fortune.
When Sun Wukai thought of this, he felt particularly confident in front of Xue Yantuo people!
...
In the eyes of Xueyantuo people, Sun Wukai's reaction is a strong man on the outside but the middle, or...
According to his usual ideas, Tu Lishi thought that Xie Yi and Di Zhixun might have deceived the young general and sneaked away. Poor Sun Wukai may not know that he was cheated by his Shangguan until now.
It’s no longer that important who is right and who is wrong!
The key is to find someone. Xie Yi and Di Zhixun seemed to have sunk to the sea and disappeared from the grassland. This is the most terrifying thing.
If the war is directly launched against the Tang Dynasty now, it may not matter whether to find someone, but the father and the man always have concerns and are not firm in their will. What can you do?
Especially the disappearance of Xie Yi and Di Zhixun made him suspicious and undecided. It is naturally impossible to raise an army.
Therefore, the most urgent task is to find Xie Yi and Di Zhixun subtle, and according to the father and man's idea, you can attack and defend in this way. If you want to raise an army to rebel against the Tang Dynasty, you can stick to the original plan; if you don't rebel, just publicize it according to the current missing words.
In this situation, there was a lot of helplessness. He was busy chasing Xie Yi and Di Zhixun, and frequently intervening with Hu Lu Xiao Khan, obviously discussing something secretly.
It is difficult to find a few people on the vast grassland, but it is also easy.
The difficulty is that the area is vast and you don’t know the specific route and location. It is equivalent to finding a few people in a haystack. It is easy to say that it is because the people who found the Tang Dynasty were obviously surprised by the grassland people. Moreover, they were going south. They all went to the wasteland in autumn and winter. That was to die, and they must pass through a place with people.
As long as they appear, they will leave traces and be discovered. There is plenty of time to intercept them from Xueyantuo Khan's tent to the border of the Tang Dynasty.
After using a lot of Xue Yantuo's power, they finally received some feedback. They received news that a team with obvious traces of the Tang people was heading towards the east.
East?
Tulishi felt a little strange at first, but after thinking about many of the Han people's strategies, he was no longer surprised, and it was very possible to take a detour.
After all, Xue Yantuo's large amount of search power was placed in the south, but he was taken advantage of. It seemed that this envoy of the Tang Dynasty was indeed very smart.
Want to go east and turn south to Youzhou and Bingzhou? Humph, I think beautifully, how can you get what you want?
So Tulishi immediately sent his confidant to chase the east, and the search in the south naturally relaxed his vigilance.
The Xueyantuo people were quite efficient. Tulishi's confidant soon arrived at the place where the traces of the Tang people were discovered, and then chased them over, and then they really discovered something.
They could confirm these things that were in line with the characteristics of the Tang envoy described by the prince, so they immediately reported the news to the Khan tent and tried to intercept them.
It was easy to stop a scattered caravan with their troops, but when they took action, they suddenly came out from nowhere and kept fighting. There was no flag, no identity was indicated, and it was a sudden attack, which immediately killed Xue Yantuo's pursuit soldiers.
When they realized that when they received the rescue, the mysterious team had lost their traces. What's more, the Tang people were completely gone.
Upon receiving the news, the sudden loss suddenly became furious. He was curious about who saved Tang Envoy, but he had no clue in the detailed investigation. He had doubts, but there was no evidence, so it became a clothing case, and the answer was solved many years later.
Even worse, they completely lost the traces of Xie Yi and Di Zhixun. Suddenly, a sudden loss suddenly felt that perhaps the traces of the envoys of the Tang Dynasty could no longer be found in the vast grassland... (To be continued...)
