Chapter 180: Southern Khan

Seven days later, Yang Tong led his triumphant army into Yecheng. The green brick walls were thick and solid, majestic and deep. There were towers, arrow towers and gate towers on the city gates. They were towering in the sky and majestic. Under the afternoon sun,

This big city crawling in the snow became gleaming, like a city of miracles.

With the arrival of the victorious army, the city of Ye was filled with excitement. All the troops were mobilized. Countless people beat gongs and drums to greet the Sui soldiers, creating an earth-shattering event. The entire group received a grand courtesy. Everyone wore red and colorful clothes, paraded through the streets on horseback, and accepted Ye.

The people of the city cheered and praised.

The people of Yecheng are refugees from all over the world. They cherish the peaceful days and respect the Sui soldiers who often bring great victories, because they know that a powerful and victorious army is the guarantee for their happy life.

It is said that among all the forces in the world, the Sui Dynasty, which has a mass base, is definitely second to none in terms of supporting the army and loving the army. The newly incorporated Bingzhou, not to mention Guan Nei Dao, but the happiness of the people of Jizhou and Youzhou

The index is definitely the highest among the twelve states. Today's life is better than before the troubled times, because not only are they not exploited by aristocratic families and local wealthy families, the government also allocates fields and gives each household a head free of charge.

Farm cattle.

Where did the cattle come from? The Sui soldiers used their lives to snatch them from the vicious Khitans, Xi people, Turks, and Goguryeo people, but in the end they gave them to the people for free. How to make the people not support the army?

Yang Tong's return to Yecheng also relieved the Turks and Goguryeo who had been worried about him. Yang Tong stayed in Pegasus County, even if there were not many soldiers and horses around him, it was enough to bring a huge sense of oppression to the neighboring Turks and Goguryeo. Now

When Yang Tong returned to Yecheng, this pressure also weakened a lot.

When Yang Tong returned to Yecheng, he called Li Yuan, Li Mi, and Dou Jiande, the three princes who were neighbors of Yang Tong, very nervous. Fortunately, Yang Tong seemed to have no interest in getting involved in the disputes in the Central Plains, but Dou Jiande was under great pressure. After all,

, the navy in the Bohai Sea and the tens of thousands of army troops on the south bank of the Yellow River are no joke. It's hard to say when they will attack.

But having said that, Yang Tong really has no interest in expanding the territory anymore. The foundation is not solid, and he doesn’t know when he will lose it. Think about why Liu Heitai was able to sweep the entire Jizhou in a short period of time in history? Dou Jiande created the

Huge popularity is one of them, but the most important thing is that Li and Tang unified the country too quickly and failed to control Jizhou, so it fell in a few months. If it hadn't been for Li Shimin and many famous and fierce generals, the world would have been in chaos again.

Yang Tong did not want to suffer this loss and decided to stop and lay a solid foundation. It is not a good thing to develop too fast, but one thing must be done, that is, the Turks cannot be allowed to stop and recuperate. As for this task, leave it to the southern Khan Ashinas

Massage is the most suitable.

"Simo...see Your Highness!" When Ashina Simo saw Yang Tong, he hurriedly stepped forward to pay homage. Previously, because of Yang Tong's request to assist in the battle, and because of his own strength, he was a bit contemptuous. At this moment, he only had to pay homage to Yang Tong.

Yang Tong was in awe.

The person in front of me is really, really cruel.

He personally led the troops and caused a bloody storm in the Turks. The Tongluo tribe with a population of hundreds of thousands was burned down by him. Even if the Turks are now worse than before, Jieli Khan can't compare with Shibi Khan, but he is thin

A dead camel is bigger than a horse. No matter how arrogant Ashina Simo is, he does not think he is comparable to Jieli who unified the grassland. But for such a great Turkic Khan, Yang Dong killed hundreds of thousands of people.

I don't even dare to fart.

At this moment, when he faced Yang Tong again, he was not only grateful for the good treatment given by the other party, but also felt a complete awe of the vicious Yang Tong.

"Nanbu Khan, you and I haven't seen each other for a long time. No need to be polite. Get up quickly." Yang Tong helped him up affectionately.

"Thank you, Your Highness." Ashina Simo stood up respectfully, bowed and said, "I wonder what your Highness's instructions are for calling me here this time?"

Yang Tong smiled and said: "Now you are considered the overlord of the party. The overlord should have the courage of the overlord. There is no need to be so reserved."

"I don't dare. Your Highness is always your Majesty, but if you have orders, Simo will never give up!" Ashina Simo looked at Yang Tong's smile, and his heart tightened for no reason, and his expression became more respectful.

overlord?

I, a tribal leader who was surrounded by the Great Wall in the Sui Dynasty, was not an overlord. Jie Li was the real overlord of the grassland, but so what? Didn't this grassland overlord become a stepping stone for Yang Tong to become famous?

Yang Tong smiled and said: "I invite you to come to Yecheng this time, but I have a big deal to share with you. If this happens, you will definitely become a great Turkic Khan like Qimin Khan. Let me look down on you in the past.

People crawl at your feet."

Hearing this, Ashina Simo's eyes lit up. Although he was afraid of Yang Tong, he was also very impressed by Yang Tong's ability. Yang Tong has never failed since he became rich. And this sentence "Let me look down on you before"

"People crawling at your feet" especially moved him.

Although he is also the son of Qimin, he has never been trusted. The reason is that his mother is just a Sogdian slave girl, and he inherits the appearance of a Sogdian. Therefore, he is not regarded as a similar person by the Ashina family.

In the eyes of Qimin and his other sons, Ashina Simo is no different from a slave. If his father and brothers are like this, others will naturally not take him seriously. If he had not been hard-working, he would have died long ago.

The hand of a brother. He was content with the situation, and thought that this would be the case in his life, but Yang Tong's words opened a brand new door for him, and inside the door was the glory above.

He was tempted.

"Please give your orders, Your Highness, but if there is an errand, Simo will do his best to assist." Ashina Simo's heartbeat quickened.

"Your tribe has a hundred thousand troops, and Jieli has almost the same number. Now, the Turkic tribes are busy with disaster relief and resettling tribes, and they are fighting with each other. I thought this was an opportunity to send troops to plunder, and your tribe

With the protection of the Great Wall, you travel lightly and have no worries at all." Yang Tong stopped being polite and went straight to the point.

"Sending troops to rob?" Ana Shisimo's heart skipped a beat and he looked at Yang Tong in surprise.

"Do you know how many I captured this time?" Yang Tong asked and answered: "650,000 horses, including 395,000 fine war horses and more than 213,700 cattle.

, the largest number of sheep, with more than 13.6 million. There are more than 2 million pieces of wool of all kinds, more than 150,000 kilograms of dried meat, and countless gold, silver, jewelry and jade.

.Captured nearly 300,000 people.”

"So much?" Ashina Simo was shocked. This harvest was more than ten times greater than his.

"Yes, that's a lot!" Yang Tong said with a smile: "Do you know why I grabbed so much, but you only got less than 10%?"

"These are the soldiers of the Sui Dynasty who were brave and good at fighting." Ashina Simo said respectfully.

"That's true, but it's secondary! Because when I went on this trip, I didn't really experience any big battles. And you have more people than me, and you fought more big battles than me, and two more people died.

Times, but your harvest is 90% less than mine. Why? Because you don’t understand the art of war and tactics! If you act so recklessly, your little fortune will be wiped out sooner or later."

"Ashamed!" Ashina Simo's face turned red.

Yang Tong smiled and said: "I decided to send General Qin Qiong to lead you to fight. Qin Qiong has a military career of more than ten years. He was once the number one general under General Zhang Xutuo, the God of War in the Sui Dynasty. He is indispensable in every war of mine! We have

This time the troops were divided into two groups. Bayegu, Xue Yantuo, and Geluolu were captured by him. With him leading the troops, you can at least reduce your losses by more than half. When your strength reaches 200,000 soldiers, even if

Even Jieli will not dare to be your enemy easily. When I take my hand out, we will take down Jieli together, and then you will be the master of Yudujin Mountain."

Ashina Simo's eyes widened. If his army was really big enough to have 200,000 soldiers, then after annexing Jieli, he would be the Great Khan of the Turks and completely free from Yang Dong's control. He then saluted Yang Dong and said: "

Simo is willing to follow His Highness to the death! We also welcome General Qin to be the commander-in-chief of our army."

"Okay, if you cut it off, it will be cut off, you have courage!" Yang Tong laughed with satisfaction.

"Your Highness, I wonder when we will send troops?"

"Without further delay, General Qin Qiong will go to Baicheng with you tomorrow." Yang Tong sneered in his heart. This test showed this guy's ambition. If he is really not of my race, his heart must be different. Next, let

Use your soldiers to consume Jieli Khan's war potential. When Shubao's prestige surpasses the entire army, there will be no need for you, Ashina Simo, to exist.

However, although there was no need to worry about Qin Qiong's safety, Yang Tong still gave him the Nu Tiao Army. However, although Qin Qiong was moved, he refused to take it. They were to protect Yang Tong's personal army, and Yang Tong's safety was more important than anyone else. In the end, he actually chose

Ten thousand Shancai recruits were recruited, and they believed that with the training methods, sooner or later they would be able to train an army as strong as the Raging Wave Army.

Seeing that he insisted, Yang Tong did not force him. Anyway, the main force was the Turks, and Qin Qiong, who understood Yang Tong's intentions, would definitely not let the recruits fight for their lives, and Xin Zai had been trained in the war, so a new batch would be replaced in a month or two.

As for the new recruits, the new recruits have also become 'veterans' who are not afraid of fighting.
