Chapter 406 Desert Eagles

The Turkic messenger Bil is really beaten badly. There was only one slit left in the bruise of the left eye, and several teeth were knocked out of the broken lips, as if two ribs were broken.

When he was carried in, he, a military man who had experienced the battle, was about to faint and could not get up.

After listening to Qin Mubai's order, the left and right sergeants had to tie Yuwen Hongtai and bring him to the hall.

Yuwen Hongtai was tied up and strong, but his body was full of his previous banditry and anger. Instead, he smiled stupidly and happily, "Hey, hey hey! Young commander, I broke the military rules. I know I'm wrong! If you want to cut your head and hit the board, just say hello!"

"You did it knowingly at this time!" Qin Mubai was furious and shouted, "Come on, let me drag it down and execute the military law according to the thirteen-killing order!"

"Ah? Do you really cut me?" Yuwen Hongtai was suddenly a little dumbfounded. He looked at Qin Mubai and said, "Why don't we discuss it again and let me die? It's not cost-effective to die under your own knife and axe like this!"

"Hugh Luo, enforce the military law!"

The officials and Li Daozong were about to come forward to ask for mercy, but Bile got up from the ground. While covering his swollen face like a pig's head, he said, "The governor is angry! But for the overall situation of the two countries and the alliance, please don't kill General Yuwen.

"This man has no military law and knowingly commits it. If he is not killed, what else will I take to order the three armies in the future?" Qin Mubai said coldly, "Please don't say too much. This is a family matter in our army."

"The young commander enforces the law impartially, which is admirable, but..." Bile hesitated for a moment and said, "If the general of the Tang army is beheaded because of such a small thing, it is bound to cast a shadow on the friendly relations between the two countries. General Yuwen once followed Mr. Qin to sit in Gaochang and experienced the turmoil. He has great hatred and personal resentment for our Beiting people. This... is also understandable, and it's not his fault. Young commander, please rest assured that after going back, he will definitely put the overall situation first and will not tell Da Khan about such things.

Li Daozong also stood up and said, "Yes, Mu Bai, the two countries and the alliance should not see blood. Especially when the current war is approaching, how can we lose the general first? General Yuwen is indeed unforgivable, but for the sake of the overall situation of the Turkic envoys and the two countries and the alliance, it is okay to spare him for his life for the time being and order him to make contributions.

The generals came out to persuade them. Qin Mubai meditated for a long time and snorted coldly, "Since the messenger and the prince and the generals guarantee together, Yuwen Hongtai, I will temporarily send your head. If you dare to violate my military rules again, even if the imperial edict of heaven is issued, I will spare you!"

"Ah? Yes, yes, hey, hey, thank you, young commander, thank you, young commander!" Yuwen Hongtai was cheap and knew how to be good. He hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

"Death is inevitable, and the living can't forgive!" Qin Mubai shouted, "Drag down and hit a hundred military sticks again to make an example!"

Now it is difficult for everyone to be persuaded to avoid it. Yuwen Hongtai's heart was cold, and he had to be dragged into the corner room to prepare for punishment.

Bile squinted and grinned. His expression was really painful, and it was not easy to complain, so he had to sigh, "I've heard for a long time that Mr. Qin's strict laws governing the army are like mountains, and now the young commander's law is always the same. Such a strict army must be the lion of tigers and wolves!"

"I'm flattered."

At this time, there was a bang and a scream from Yuwen Hongtai in the side room. Everyone listened and felt chilled for a while. If these hundred military sticks are hit hard, the light one will be disabled if the skin is opened and the flesh is heavy. Even if it is beaten to death, it is possible!

Qin Mubai glanced at the people in the hall and preempted the way: "Who dares to speak out for mercy and ask for protection, and sin with it!"

Everyone is speechless. Therefore, many people inadvertently angered Bi Le and others, and countless vicious eyes fell straight on him, making him like sitting on pins and needles, so he had to leave in a hurry.

In the execution room, a pawn slipped back from the window and said, "Don't fight, don't fight!" Bile is gone!"

"No, I have to finish it!" Yuwen Hongtai roared, "The military order is like a mountain. You favor me in private. Who will obey the young commander's order in the future?"

"Then can we... tap it? General Yuwen, just shout loudly, scream more miserably, okay?"

"Hey hey, this line, this line!"

Qin Mubai and others were still discussing in the main hall, but they heard a miserable roar like killing pigs in the execution room, which made people scared. It was night, and almost all the people in the governor's office were shocked. They were all confused and worried, thinking that the evil ghost had been born.

But after listening to it for a long time, Qin Mubai and others all laughed secretly: Heizi, a simple guy, obviously can't fake. At first glance, it sounds like being beaten and screaming, but it's obviously not sad at all. It's just pretending at the top of your voice!

Until late at night, the governor's office will discuss the matter. Li Daozong invited Qin Mubai to have some refreshments and then rested in Xingyuan. Qin Mubai thought for a moment and declined his kindness. He took some wine and snacks out of the governor's office and went straight to Yuwen Hongtai's house.

Yuwen Hongtai has no father, no mother and no family. He is alone with the army and has always lived in the army. But this time after he came back from Gaochang, he has been in a unstable mood and crying for a long time, and it is inconvenient to live in the barracks. So Qin Mubai sent him outside the military camp, found a private house to settle him down, and lived there for the time being.

Originally, Qin Mubai also called two military men to serve the wild man. But he is used to being wild, but he can't stand the service and perseverance of others. In a day or two, he was kicked away, and he was alone. Therefore, his home is often messy and sloppy.

But when Qin Mubai opened the door of his house today, he saw that the yard was overgrown with weeds in the past was clean and well, and the clothes that had just been washed were neatly dried on the hanger, dripping down, and even smelled the fragrance of wine and vegetables.

"It's strange. Is it possible for this stupid black to return the golden house?" Qin Mubai couldn't help laughing. He was about to walk to his bedroom with the light on, but he heard Yuwen Hongtai's scolding.

"You stupid bitch, don't speak ill of my third brother!" Yuwen Hongtai scolded, "I'm going to fight by myself, and I won't do anything to him!" Military law is like a mountain, do you understand?"

"I don't understand! All I know is that he actually beat his brother down for an outsider. This is hypocrisy and conscienceless!"

"Do you want to talk about it again? Believe it or not, I tore your broken mouth!"

"You are a stupid black who has no conscience! I won't serve you anymore!"

There was a crisp sound, which was obviously the sound of the dishes falling to the ground.

"Let's go, go quickly, don't slow down!" Yuwen Hongtai was not in a hurry at all, but smiled happily, "I didn't call you here!" Go early and be quiet. I don't want you stupid bitch to serve!"

"You! ...You are so stupid that you are hopeless! I really owe you in my last life! - Take off your trousers and let me apply medicine for you!"

"Bah! You slut, do you just want to see my ass? ...My ass is really so beautiful. Isn't it enough to watch it countless times a day?"

"...Believe it or not, I've ruined you with one shot?"

"Hahaha! If you have the guts, you will waste me! It's quiet, it's convenient! If you are useless, you won't bother me all day long!"

Qin Mubai almost couldn't help laughing - my good boy, the black man is really hidden in the golden house! Isn't this Su Lianqing? When did she hook up with Yuwen Hongtai?

The light in the room was suddenly blown out, and then there was a sound of groping and rolling.

Qin Mubai laughed dumbly, so he put the wine and meat under the eaves steps, walked out of the yard gently, and carefully closed the door.

The stars are all over the sky. It must be a sunny day tomorrow. Qin Mubai looked up at the starry sky and couldn't help thinking of Xue Rengui.

Since he stepped into his official career, Qin Mubai has not really made many close friends and brothers. Yuwen Hongtai has followed him for the longest time, and the other is Yin Yang, who is now accompanying the King of Wu in Youzhou, but he is already Li Ke's person, and he is more or less estranged. Besides, there is only Xue Rengui left.

Now, Xue Rengui led a brigade of lonely troops who did not know where to go, and even the Turkic messengers could not say (or hidden and refused to say) why.

There is going to be a war with the garqinling. Qin Mubai feels that he is still a little weak, mainly because there is a lack of powerful helpers around him.

"If only Rengui were here! ... He is more agile than the three armies, and he has a tacit understanding with me, which is enough to stand alone. In contrast, Yuwen Hongtai can only be a vanguard and fierce general. Xue Wanjun, the general of Dafeichuan, is brave and resourceless and not my confidant. Hou Junji is ambitious and obedient... Only benevolence is my perfect right arm!"

At the end of summer and the beginning of autumn, the grass loses the eagles and flies, and the prey has no escape. At this time, it is the season when the shepherds of the grassland ride a fat horse and chase their prey with the eagles in the sky.

It has always been the golden season when the horses in the north played the eagle flute and went south to plunder the Central Plains.

Xue Rengui and more than ten thousand Tang soldiers and soldiers under his subordinates got a few difficult rest time for a few days, and their spirits were refreshed.

Today, the leader of Huihu told Xue Rengui that after Xue Yanzhu received his letter, he really went to the appointment to listen to the instruction of the "Heavenly Messenger".

Of course, Yinan will not be so tame. He can't be scared just by the words "Heavenly Messenger" of the Tang Dynasty - he brought with him, and there are also 100,000 Xue Yantu iron riders!

The Xue Yan Tuo tribe, which belongs to one of the "nine surnames Tiele" tribes on the grassland, is composed of two tribes, Xue and Yantuo. In the early days, they were nomadic in the Jinshan area and belonged to the Turkic Khanate. When the Tang Dynasty attacked the Turks in the north, Xue Yantuo sent troops to help the Tang Dynasty, and since then, he has quietly emerged. Among the grasslands, today's Xueyantuo tribe is already strong and powerful, because their powerful northern iron cavalry is not something that any tribe can compete with!

Nowadays, Yi Man holds more than 200,000 elite iron riders who have experienced hundreds of battles, and his ambition to unify the grassland and reshape the Khanate is obvious!

I heard that the man of Yi led 100,000 iron horses south to the north to "answer" Xue Rengui, and returned to the whole tribe in a panic - isn't this a disaster of extermination!

In this regard, Xue Rengui did not say a word, but only ordered the Tang army under his command to complete the equipment battle. How can he fight with Yinan? A while before the battle!

At this point, Tu Midu had to bravely recruit more than 40,000 cavalrymen from the Hu tribe, and send troops north with Xue Rengui to the agreed place - the north bank of the Orhun River!

Among the nine surnames of Tiele in the grassland, Huihu is actually a big tribe. The people of their tribe are different from the Turks in the past and the people of the current Xueyantuo tribe. They don't like to fight, but are good at raising livestock and horses. Therefore, the Huihu tribe is the richest tribe on the grassland. There are many fat and strong horses in cattle and sheep, and the tea and horse trading with the Central Plains is also the most active. As a result, Hui people are prosperous and economically prosperous.

In comparison, there are many more strong men of the Huihu tribe and horses that can be used as war horses than Xue Yantuo. But Hui people don't like war very much. To put it better, they love peace, and to put it hard, they are a little weak. For such a large tribe, it is not difficult to recruit 100,000 troops at all; but Tu Midu only brought more than 40,000 cavalry to accompany him on the expedition. Xue Rengui was somewhat unhappy, but the guest did not say much, and he secretly made up his mind.

When you arrive at the Orkhon River, this is an important grassland in Mobei. The water and grass are rich and the terrain is flat, and it is a good place for nomads to settle down in spring and summer. When it comes to autumn and winter, it is another good hunting ground - at the same time, it is also a good battlefield!
