Chapter 57: The Turks are dead

In June of the second year of Wude, the Eastern Turkestan Khan died.

Shibi Khan's original name was Ashina Dojishi, and he was the son of Qimin Khan Ashina Rangan. He was more powerful than his father. Qimin Khan was unlucky, and met the Sui Dynasty at its peak, and lived in this world all his life.

In the shadow, I act like a northern shepherd dog of Sui Dynasty, kneeling and licking Sui Dynasty's father every day.

When Shibi came to power, he quickly started baring his teeth at Yang Guang, saying that I am the boss in the north, and you, a southern barbarian, should be beaten by me!

At that time, Yang Guang was young and energetic. When he saw that the Turkic dog Nimabi was disobedient, right, he killed him!

At this time, Pei Ju said that Shibi had a favorite named Shi Shuhu Xi who was in charge of trade with the Sui Dynasty. This person was the most determined anti-Sui faction among the Turks and he should be the one to do it.

Yang Guang said yes.

Then Pei Ju started a simple and crude operation, directly deceiving Shi Shu Hu Xi to Mayi County under the pretext of trade, and cut off his head with a knife.

After killing the people, Yang Guang was deliberately disgusted. What are you talking about? Your slave betrayed you and wanted to surrender to the Sui Dynasty. We have helped you become him. Thank you dad.

Can you bear this?

First, they broke off diplomatic relations with the Sui Dynasty, and then in the same year, on August 13, the 11th year of Daye, hundreds of thousands of Turkic troops surrounded Yanmen County.

At that time, Yang Guang happened to be collecting folk songs in Yanmen County.

It can be said that the siege of Yanmen County was the beginning of the great chaos of the Sui Dynasty. Because Yang Guang was frightened to death, in order to get out of trouble, he directly ordered each county to recruit troops, and the world was diligent.

This move will damage the enemy a thousand times and cause it to explode on the spot.

Because from this moment on, the separatist forces in various counties and counties in the world have begun to take shape. What happened later is basically clear. Although Yang Guang wanted to disband the troops of King Qin, the governors in various places made various excuses.

Some simply support the bandits to respect themselves and use the excuse to suppress the bandits without disbanding the army.

As the central government lost control of the local area, Yang Guang began to escape from reality frustrated. At this time, the Guanlong nobles hated him deeply because of the conquest of Goguryeo, and watched the fall of the Sui Dynasty with cold eyes.

Lost the army, lost the family, lost the hearts of the people.

Yang Guang disappeared in the end.

It was the straw that broke the Sui Dynasty, but it was also a very important straw.

After the chaos of the Sui Dynasty, Shibi began to let himself go. He first supported Li Yuan and sent Turkic cavalry to help Li Yuan conquer Chang'an. However, he did not expect that after Li Yuan conquered Chang'an, he changed his mind and ignored him. He never mentioned the subject matter again.

The matter of paying tribute.

Shibi was so angry that he later supported Liang Shidu, Liu Wuzhou, and even had contacts with Dou Jiande. Even Wang Shichong and Shibi sent people to contact them.

After tossing and tossing, he failed in the end and died.

When Lao Li heard the news of Shi Bi's death, he actually lived in Bengbu. That night, he got extremely drunk in the harem and summoned four concubines to sleep with him.

Then, the next day.

Li Zheng Palace.

"Father, are you okay?" Li Jiancheng looked at Old Li with a worried look.

I saw that Lao Li's face was pale, with heavy dark circles under his eyes. He looked like a plague chicken, downcast and without energy.

"It's okay, I'm very fine!" Li Yuan's bold tone was in stark contrast to the tired look on his face.

Who the hell wants to be a grandson?

When the army started, he pinched his nose and flattered Shi Bi, promising all kinds of benefits. After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, in order to stabilize the north, he sent people to quietly send money to Shi Bi every year. He was so frightened that he gave up.

The dogs are still causing trouble in the north every day.

He is the emperor!

Every time he felt this kind of cowardly anger, it made him want to raise his troops and go north to kill Shibi, the sheepherding bastard.

Liu Wuzhou, Liang Shidu, and even Dou Jiande, why these three bastards dance so happily is not because Shibi, a bitch, is causing trouble behind the scenes.

Now that he was done, he was so happy that he wanted to dance.

"Do you all know about the Turkic Beginning of Khan?" Li Yuan looked at his three sons.

Li Zhiyun rolled his eyes. The Turkic envoys stayed at Honglu Temple. The whole Tang Dynasty knew about this.

Li Jiancheng nodded, "My son and I have already learned the news when we arrived. Congratulations to my father for his sudden death. The pressure in the north has dropped sharply."

"Not necessarily." Li Shimin poured cold water and said: "Father, I heard that the newly succeeded Chuluo Khan is supporting Liang Shidu, and his son, Yu Sheshe, is the little Khan of Nanshe, and is helping Liang Shidu.

They all expanded their troops and horses."

Li Yuan suddenly frowned. He was dead at first and last, so why are the Turks still uneasy? He asked: "What's going on in Chuluo?"

The three brothers looked at each other, not knowing how to answer. After all, they really didn't know much about the Turks.

Li Zhiyun reminded: "Father, Pei Ju, the imperial censor in the palace, once went on a mission to the Turks. He may be aware of the affairs of the Turks."

"That's right, summon Pei Ju." Li Yuan immediately ordered the summons.

Not long after, Pei Ju arrived at the Li Zheng Hall.

After listening to Li Yuan's question, Pei Ju immediately said: "Chuluo Khan is the second son of Qimin Khan and the younger brother of Shibi Khan. His name is Ashina Qilifushe. This man is as brave as Shibi."

"What is his attitude towards the Central Plains?" Li Yuan asked.

"Wolf ambitions." Pei Ju commented, and then said: "Now the world is in chaos, and the Turks are supporting puppets everywhere in the north. This sending of envoys to the DPRK is definitely not a reconciliation."

Li Yuan gritted his teeth, "Damn Turks!"

Li Zhiyun asked in confusion: "Mr. Pei, does Shibi Khan have no children? Why did Chuluo succeed to the throne?"

Pei Ju explained: "Your Highness does not know that the throne of the Turkic Khan has always been occupied by those with strong soldiers and horses. Since the son of the Khan did not succeed to the throne, I am afraid that he will have to give in because he is too powerful."

"Thank you for clearing up the confusion." Li Zhiyun pursed his lips, feeling something bad.

Although he didn't know much about the Turks, a powerful Turk would be a disaster for the Tang Dynasty.

Li Yuan asked: "Who is the Turkic envoy this time?"

The prince replied: "The sheath is strong and the bones are strong."

Hearing this, Li Yuan looked mixed with joy and sorrow, "Kang Sheoli is an old friend of the Tang Dynasty. When I raised the army, when Prime Minister Liu went to the Turks, it was Kang Sheoli who led the troops to help. As for Gu Duolu...

"Old Li didn't finish speaking, but his tone had become very low.

Li Zhiyun knew this about Kang Sheoli and Gu Duulu. Kang Sheoli was from the Kang state in the Western Regions, but now he was from Teller, the Turks. When Lao Li raised his army, he sent Liu Wenjing as an envoy to the Turks. At first he agreed to help and sent Kang

Sheo Li led the troops to help. This man's attitude towards the Tang Dynasty was quite acceptable.

As for Gu Duulu, he was a pure conqueror who came to the Tang Dynasty every year as a Turkic envoy to show off his power.

If we want to distinguish between good and bad, Kang Sheoli is the one who can spare the life of a dog, while Gu Duolu is the one who must kill the dog.

No matter what, even though Shi Bi was dead, the Tang Dynasty was forced by the current situation and still could not fall out with the Turks.

Therefore, the next day, Li Yuan led all civil and military officials to express condolences to Shibi Khan at Changle Gate, and also sent people to mourn at the residence of the Turkic envoy.

The people who expressed condolences to the Turkic envoy were none other than the prince and the king of Chu.
