The news of Bi Xuan's death spread quickly like a thunder.

Although the Turks have been the overlords of the grassland for nearly a hundred years, making the Khitan, Uighur, Tuyuhun, Tiel and other grassland peoples bow down to their heads, and are the largest forces on the grassland, in essence, the Turks have become somewhat strong on the outside but hard on the inside, and cannot be tolerated in the past.

This is not only because the Turks have split once, but the original huge Turkic Khanate has now been divided into two parts, becoming two parts of the Eastern Turks and Western Turks, fighting each other endlessly, but also because there is still division within the Eastern and Western Turks.

Over the years, the reason why the Turks were able to maintain uniformity on the surface was that Bi Xuan's existence could have made great contributions. If he had not forcibly bridged the contradictions within the Turks with his reputation and reputation, otherwise there would have been civil strife within the Turks and he would have fought with him.

But today, Bi Xuan is dead.

His death seemed to announce the end of a grassland era, causing both the Khitans, the Uighurs, the Tuyuhuns, and the Tieles to develop some thoughts that should not have, and they were quite ready to move.

For a moment, the eyes of the entire prairie turned to Shanhaiguan, to the pass that was originally regarded as the first line of defense that the Han people resisted the grassland, and to the Turks' next actions. There is no doubt that if the Turks could not give the Central Plains a reward when Chu Tianxiu killed Bi Xuan and slapped the Turks hard in the face, then it is hard to say whether the Turks could still maintain their identity as the overlord of the grassland.

Because of this, the Turks' next actions were not only to avenge Bi Xuan, but also to use the bloodiest and cruelest method to give a response, so that other grassland ethnic groups could take a look and let them know that even without Bi Xuan, the Turks today are still powerful and are still the well-deserved overlord on the grassland.

This is actually what Chu Tianxiu wants to see.

In the original plot, after Kou Zhong entered the grassland, he intervened in the battle between Tuli Khan and Jie Li Khan, and then helped Tuli Khan defeat Jie Li Khan. So if Bi Xuan had not come forward later and forced Tuli to surrender Jie Li to bridge the conflict between the two, otherwise the Khan position on the grassland would have changed hands because of this.

Zhang Jinshu looked so good-tempered that even though Chu Tianxiu spoke rudely at this moment, he didn't care and said in a respectful and polite tone:

So Chu Tianxiu was really not sure about this matter. After all, the Guanlong Li family was originally a Chinese Hu people. They were already a family of Turks. The reason why the Li Tang could destroy the Turks in the future was not that they could defeat the Huns just like the Han Dynasty attacking the Huns. Instead, they used the method of using force to defeat the Turks to accept the separatist forces of the Turks - Xueyantu Khan and Tuli Khan, and rely on their help to deal with Jie Li Khan, who was considered the orthodox Khan of the Eastern Turks.

Chu Tianxiu stayed in Shanhaiguan for ten days, and waited until he sent it to Luo Yi and Liu Heita respectively. The two of them were all one south and one north. After sending troops separately, he brought three thousand cavalry out of the city and killed in the direction of Ji County.

Although Chu Tianxiu made Monk Daoxin hold a waterway conference to save Bi Xuan's soul out of his kindness, he did not treat Bi Xuan's body well because of this, but directly cut off his head and hung it on the city wall.

The Turks have always regarded Bi Xuan as a martial arts god and spiritual belief, so after his head was hung above the city gate outside, some Turks who heard the news immediately ignored the power gap between the two sides. They actually led a team of people to invade Shanhaiguan without any preparation. Then these brainless Turks naturally quickly settled the accounts under a neat rain of arrows.

Although Gao Kaidao was just a small prince and did not have many troops under his command, no matter what, 30,000 to 40,000 people could still be gathered, not to mention the cold and bitter north and the strong people, which made most of his troops adapted from the rebel army, but in terms of the quality of the troops, they were not necessarily much worse than those under Chu Tianxiu's elite soldiers, let alone that he had a city to rely on and guarded the city.

Three days are just three days of effort.

Under such circumstances, it is really a matter of no one to tell whether the Li family will join the Turkic people under pressure. So if Chu Tianxiu could solve the Turkic people first before leading his troops to attack Chang'an, then it would naturally reduce him to have a huge trouble.

Therefore, after Chu Tianxiu's troops arrived at Yuyang City, he did not foolishly send troops to attack the city, but directly sent a letter of persuasion to surrender to the city.

So Chu Tianxiu's dispatch of troops this time was not a military account, but a political account. So even if he dispatched fewer troops, as long as Gao Kaidao did not become confused at this moment, otherwise he would naturally know which end is light and which end is heavy.

"General Zhang, don't be polite. My letter has been sent, but I don't know what Gao Kaidao means? As I said, if he is willing to surrender to Xiancheng, then I will make him the Duke of Yuyang and guard Yuyang for generations. If he doesn't want to do this and still wants to be the tyrant of the Turks, then I naturally have nothing to say. Waiting here, two armies of Liu Heita come here to attack Yuyang together, and take down the life of a traitor."

After Chu Tianxiu took Luoyang, he could have directly rushed his troops westward and headed towards Guanzhong, attacking the Li family directly, but he did not choose to do that in the end. That is, if he forced too much, would the old fox Li Yuan follow the example of the "child emperor" Shi Jingtang and directly lead the Turks into the pass and give Chu Tianxiu a great surprise?

Gao Kaidao was a prince in the north and his fame was not too great, which made Chu Tianxiu not understand his "Dayan Kingdom". However, when Chu Tianxiu was in Shanhaiguan, he sent people to inquire about the news about Gao Kaidao, which made him have a little understanding of the situation under Gao Kaidao, and naturally made him know that Zhang Jinshu was the number one general under Gao Kaidao and almost mastered half of the possessions under Gao Kaidao.

But the current Emperor of the Tang Dynasty was not Li Shimin, but Li Yuan.

If the host of Li family was Li Shimin, then Chu Tianxiu would not be worried. After all, the bottom line of Emperor Taizong of Tang might be relatively low, but he would never allow others to enter his own job.

Not long after, a middle-aged man with dark skin, simple appearance, almost the same as an authentic farmer, walked out of the door as a messenger of Gao Kaidao. However, although his appearance looked ordinary, just looking at his eyes that were as lightning, you could tell that he was a master of the master level.

After Chu Tianxiu handed over Shanhaiguan to him and asked him to be responsible for defending the city, he quickly practiced military law in the city. While acquiring the merchants and gangs of the city, temporarily tying them into militias, and expelling the grassland people in the city, so as not to become the inner supporters of the Turks. Then, the militias were arranged to continuously demolish the houses in the city and decomposing a large number of bricks and tiles to repair the city walls of Shanhaiguan.

Li Jing immediately transformed Shanhaiguan, which originally looked more like a border market, and gradually returned to a military fortress armed to the teeth.

If Chu Tianxiu wants to attack and fight, then unless he enters the city alone and captures the thief and captures the king first, it is impossible for him to do anything.

...

At this point, it has to be said that Bi Xuan's appeal is indeed amazing, so that in the past few days, several Turkic teams with varying scales almost every day, with hundreds of people and dozens of people all willing to risk their lives to charge towards Shanhaiguan.

""Little brother Zhang Jinshu, the charger under the seat of King Yan Gao Kaidao, has seen His Majesty the Emperor of Zhou!"

Even Chu Tianxiu knew in his heart that although his subordinates were not weak, he could not have the ability to directly solve the Turks, the grassland power with the number one name in Tianzi, before he unified the Central Plains. However, although he could not directly solve the Turks, he could find a way to trip the Turks!

Calculate the days, Shibi Khan, the king of the Eastern Turks, should be about to die. After his death, the Turks would fall into a state of unstable regime. His two younger brothers, Chuluo Khan and Jie Li Khan, and his son Tuli Khan, fought repeatedly to inherit his Khan throne, and even led troops to fight to the death.

Even if Gao Kaidao is here in person, it is not worthy of Chu Tianxiu's treatment of courtesy, let alone Zhang Jinshu. So when he spoke, he was not polite and asked directly from Jianshan.

Li Jing is an extraordinary person.

"You misunderstood! We are all Han people, so how would we be slaves to the Turks? But the four frontier troops, whether they are Liu Wuzhou, Guo Zihe, Liang Shidu, or our Yan army, must first seek survival. If the Turks are punished and they are attacking them in large numbers, the iron hooves of the Turkic spirit cavalry will be trampled into ruins, and the countryside will turn into wasteland. Who dares to take this risk? This is why they have to lie dormant under the Turkic people and barely protect the peace and well."

His argument made Chu Tianxiu feel a little familiar, but Chu Tianxiu also knew that because of the incompetence of the Jin Dynasty and the Five Barbarians invading China, the northern region had been several times behind the Hu people, and at the worst, they would have been harmed by them to become a piece of white land. Therefore, under such national conditions, Gao Kaidao and others did not understand the practices, so he did not ask the previous questions clearly, but said directly:

"Since that's the case, then Gao Kaidao wants to surrender? Help me fight against the Turks and return the Han people to the world?"

A little unexpectedly, after hearing this, Zhang Jinshu did not argue, but said directly:

"This is naturally. We are all Han people. Naturally, we will not help the evil and humiliate our ancestors."

But when he was talking normally, he spoke again:

"It's just that although my lord is willing to surrender, he is still hesitant to whom he surrenders. Three days ago, my lord also received an imperial edict from Li Tang, and was appointed as the chief supervisor of Weizhou, Shangzhu Kingdom, and the prince of Beiping."
