Donglin Khan glanced at everyone and then said slowly: "Someone came to Xilin Khan a few days ago and said that he had urgent secrets to report to the big order, and it was related to the epidemic. Xilin Khan knew that there was an urgent need, so he introduced him to the big order.
After meeting the Great Chanyu, this person was very capable of slander, claiming that the great plague in Modong was not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster, and he also swore that the culprit behind the spread of the great plague was General Qin!"
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but look at Qin Xiao.
Everyone knows that the person who reported the news must have slandered him, otherwise Qin Xiao would not be treated as an honored guest today.
Donglin Khan said loudly: "That person slandered General Qin, but he didn't expect that General Qin had also been paying attention to the Modong epidemic, and concluded that the epidemic was caused by man-made causes, and investigated it personally. General Qin was very capable, and he tracked down the epidemic in Hegu.
We arrived at the murderers who spread the disease and took the antidote from their hands."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone present became excited.
Someone has asked anxiously: "Donglin Khan, is there really an antidote? Can the antidote cure the epidemic?"
Others also asked about it.
After hearing that there is an antidote, everyone is really not thinking about who is planning to spread the epidemic, but rather whether the antidote is useful.
The epidemic situation in Buliuda is very serious. Currently, hundreds of people in various tribes are suffering from the epidemic. Almost all the leaders and officials of these tribes have their family members infected with the epidemic. At this time, I heard that Qin Xiao had an antidote, but he wanted to
So that we can get the antidote as soon as possible to treat our family members and clan members.
The Great Chanyu saw the commotion in the tent and raised his hand to signal everyone to calm down.
After everyone calmed down, Donglin Khan said: "There is an antidote, and General Qin brought the antidote, but the quantity is limited. Da Shanyu has ordered to treat those who are seriously ill first, and has also rushed to purchase and collect medicinal materials as soon as possible.
Make more antidotes."
Everyone was happy when they heard this.
The epidemic was a disaster that had plagued Buliu for several months. The various tribes watched helplessly as many tribesmen were tortured and even died, but they could not find a way to deal with the epidemic. They were helpless. They were all anxious and helpless. At this moment, they heard that Qin Xiao had brought the antidote.
, can be said to be extremely happy.
"General Qin not only brought the antidote, but also brought the truth." Donglin Khan's voice was deep and deep, and he was full of energy. Although the tent was spacious and there were dozens of people in it, everyone could hear everything he said.
Clearly: "The man who slandered General Qin last night was taken to the Khan's tent. He originally intended to slander the Great Chanyu and wanted to drive a wedge between Bu Liuda and General Qin, but he didn't expect General Qin to be generous and kind.
, and he was so courageous that he came in person to help Bu Liuda with the antidote."
Although Da Chanyu did not speak, he stroked his beard and nodded slightly, turning his head to look at Qin Xiao with admiration on his face.
Naturally, everyone saw Da Chanyu's move and thought that Da Chanyu was extremely shrewd. It seemed that what Donglin Khan said was true, and Da Chanyu obviously admired and was grateful to this Qin general.
"The Great Chanyu didn't believe the man's slanderous words. As soon as General Qin arrived, the Great Chanyu immediately asked both sides to testify in court." Donglin Khan said: "When the man saw General Qin's appearance, he immediately became confused.
During the confrontation, there were many loopholes. He knew that his plot was exposed, and he actually wanted to hold the Great Chanyu hostage to save his life. The man was not weak. When Xilin Khan saw that he was about to attack the Great Chanyu, he immediately stepped forward to protect him, but he was
Killed by that man...!" At this point, he shook his head and sighed.
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
Not many people knew about what happened in the sweat tent last night, and it was kept strictly confidential. The body of Xilin Khan was also handled secretly, and it happened in the middle of the night, and in the sweat tent that ordinary people cannot approach, so until now, everyone has not known what happened in the sweat tent.
Only then did people learn about Xilin Khan’s death.
Xilin Khan's prestige and status in Buliuda were extremely high. Everyone was shocked when they heard the bad news.
Many people were in awe of Xilin Khan and were shocked and deeply saddened.
"Where is the murderer?" Someone clenched his fists and said with fire in his eyes: "If you kill Xilin Khan, he must be executed."
Everyone else was also filled with indignation. Only a few officials in Heihe Tutun who knew the truth remained calm.
Heihe Tutun and others who served as witnesses in the sweat tent last night are all tribal leaders whom the Great Chanyu has great trust. Among the many leaders, they are also the leaders who truly stand on the same side as the Great Chanyu.
Heihe Tutun and others naturally understood where the great Chan was going when he worried about Bu Liuda.
These confidant leaders also knew that although the Great Chanyu wanted to maintain a distance from the Liaodong Army, he would encounter considerable resistance.
Bu Liuda was supported by the Liaodong Army behind his back, and the two sides had frequent secret exchanges. Many leaders in the tribe benefited from the Liaodong Army.
Before the emergence of the Heishan Trading Ground, the largest trading base between the Northeast and the grasslands was the Fucheng Trading Ground. Although the Liaodong Army made use of the Fucheng Trading Ground to make money every day, the first-come-first-come-first-serve approach to the Fucheng Trading Ground was the Buliuda Zhu, which was very close to the Fucheng Trading Ground.
In fact, the department has benefited a lot.
In addition, years of interest exchanges have also created a large number of forces close to the Liaodong Army among the Buliuda tribes.
Heihe Tutun and others could clearly see that Qin Xiao's visit this time was obviously playing into the hands of the Great Chan.
No one is sure whether the Great Chanyu has the intention to switch to Long Rui's army, but he definitely intends to abandon the Liaodong Army.
But of course this attitude cannot be made explicit.
The fear of the Liaodong Army is not actually the important reason. The most important thing is that if you abandon the Liaodong Army at this time, you will definitely be opposed by many leaders in the tribe. Moreover, from a moral point of view, Bu Liuda has been supported by the Liaodong Army for many years. Now,
The Liaodong Army was at a low ebb, so Bu Liuda immediately abandoned it, which was good to say and bad to say.
After Heihe Tutun and others heard what Donglin Khan said, they attributed all the credit for the antidote to Qin Xiao and did not mention Tuma. This was clearly to convince the leaders of the Liuda tribes to thank Qin Xiao for his rescue.
Zhien, immediately understood that the Great Chanyu obviously wanted to use Shen Xuangan's incident to make a fuss and silence those who objected.
Sure enough, Donglin Khan raised his hand to signal everyone to calm down before continuing: "Fortunately, General Qin was in the tent at that time. He was very skilled. After the man committed the murder, he took action to subdue him. After we arrested the murderer, we continued all night
During the interrogation, some confessions were also obtained, and we found out who the real culprit behind the scenes was."
"who is it?"
"That person initially claimed to be from the Queen Mother Society...!"
Before Donglin Khan finished speaking, someone interrupted: "Donglin Khan, the Queen Mother's Association you are talking about is the rebel bandits who rebelled in the Tang Dynasty? I remember that this rebel bandit rebelled in Jiangnan, and it seems that it was led by General Qin.
The soldiers put down the rebellion."
Qin Xiao thought to himself that those forces outside the Tang Dynasty had indeed always had their eyes on the Tang Dynasty. What happened in the Tang Dynasty would soon be spread throughout the world. He himself put down the chaos in the south of the Yangtze River and went out to train troops. That was really true.
Famous throughout the world.
"Yes, it was the Queen Mother Society who rebelled in the Tang Dynasty."
"It's no wonder that he framed General Qin." Since Heihe Tutun knew that Da Dan was going to use the banquet to make a fuss today, he naturally cooperated actively and deliberately said with a look of sudden realization: "The Queen Mother will be put down by General Qin.
, the losses were heavy, and they wanted to frame him to retaliate against General Qin, but it was natural."
Others couldn't help but nod.
"They spread the epidemic in Modong to frame General Qin?" Someone said hatefully: "I understand, they want all the three tribes of Xile to hate General Qin, and they want to provoke our hatred towards Long Ruijun.
Use our hands to deal with General Qin. These demons are really hateful. They resorted to such despicable and cruel methods in order to use their swords to kill people."
Donglin Khan shook his head and said: "I thought that was the case at first, but after interrogation, his confession was full of flaws and obviously wrong. Later, I used torture to finally pry his mouth open. In fact, his true identity is not Wang
People from the Mother Church.”
Qin Xiao was calm and relaxed, but his heart was tense.
In fact, he certainly didn't want Shen Xuangan's true identity to be made public.
Shen Xuangan revealed last night that he was a disciple of Tianzhai. Although Qin Xiao was shocked, he had no intention of informing others of his identity.
After all, what Shen Xuangan did was really vicious and despicable. If the truth that he was a disciple of Tianzhai was publicized, it would definitely have a great impact on Dongji Tianzhai, and some might even make a big fuss about it, endangering Tianzhai.
Before meeting Aunt Ying, Qin Xiao would definitely not care about Dongji Tianzhai's reputation, but now his relationship with Zhuque is extraordinary, and Zhuque is currently the helmsman of Dongji Tianzhai, so from the perspective of protecting Zhuque
Considering that he would not let Shen Xuangan's actions affect Tianzhai's reputation and cause trouble to Suzaku.
Naturally, Shanyu and Donglin Khan did not know Shen Xuangan's true identity.
But Shen Xuangan is the third master of Heishan, and even the captain of Zhiguo in the Tang Dynasty. He serves in Long Rui's army and is his subordinate. This identity was exposed in the sweat tent last night. The people present last night were so disgusting.
Everybody knows.
Qin Xiao not only didn't want anyone to know that Shen Xuangan was a disciple of Tianzhai, he didn't even want the past of Shen Xuangan to be exposed in Heishan. After all, Shen Xuangan's identity as Captain Guo was also very sensitive.
Of course, Qin Xiao also knew that these opening remarks made by Donglin Khan at the banquet were arranged by the Great Chanyu, who obviously wanted to make a fuss at the banquet.
He still couldn't guess what the Great Chanyu would do, but the Great Chanyu arranged for him to take a seat next to him. Even if he wanted to make a fuss today, it would definitely not be detrimental to him.
But Donglin Khan suddenly wanted to reveal Shen Xuangan's identity. Qin Xiao's heart tightened. He really didn't know how Donglin Khan would explain Shen Xuangan's identity, but he still remained calm and calm on his face.
Pick up the horse milk tea prepared on the table, take a sip and watch its changes.
"This person confessed that he was ordered to bring a group of people to Modong to spread the epidemic." Donglin Khan said slowly: "They have been planning this for a while and only started to implement it more than three months ago. From the beginning
, they just want to frame all this on General Qin and Long Ruijun."
Heihe Tutun asked deliberately: "So their purpose is to frame General Qin and Long Ruijun?"
"That's just one of the purposes." Although Donglin Khan is a brave man, he speaks sharply and has a clear mind. He explained: "In fact, their biggest purpose is to provoke Xile to spread hatred against Long Ruijun, and then everyone
The troops united and became their tool to attack General Qin and Long Rui's army."
Heihe Tutun asked: "Donglin Khan, who was that person instructed by?"
"You can take a guess." Donglin Khan said slowly: "Everyone thinks that apart from the Queen Mother Association, who is the most fearful and hateful of General Qin and Long Rui's army? And who wants the Xile tribes to become their partner in dealing with Long Rui?
Military tool?"
Everyone looked at each other with different expressions. Some were deep in thought, some frowned, some were calm, but many people already looked surprised.
One of them had lost his voice and said: "Liaodong Army? Donglin Khan, could it be that...the culprit behind the scenes is the Liaodong Army?"
In fact, many people had already thought of the Liaodong Army, but they couldn't say it directly. This person blurted it out, and everyone was shocked.
There was a commotion at the banquet.
"General Wang is not so despicable, right?" Someone said: "He is General Anton of the Tang Dynasty. He has a distinguished status. How could he send someone to do such a heartbreaking thing? Once the world knows about it, won't he be notorious? He is not afraid of things.
After being exposed, all the tribes in Modong came together to seek justice from the Tang Emperor?"
Someone immediately said: "Even if it is really his job, he will handle it thoroughly and leave no evidence."
"That's true, the people of the Tang Dynasty are very cunning. If Wang Xingchao really planned such a despicable thing, he would definitely not leave anyone with a clue." Someone else said: "We will not get the evidence...!
"Suddenly he thought that Qin Xiao, who was being treated as a guest of honor, was also a general of the Tang Dynasty. He said to his face that the people of the Tang Dynasty were cunning. It was naturally very rude. He felt a little embarrassed and did not dare to continue.
The Great Chanyu, who had been silent for a long time, finally raised his hand to support Chang Xu and said: "Donglin Khan interrogated the murderer at night and got a confession." However, he reached into his arms, took out something, raised his arm, and
Said: "This is the confession that Donglin Khan found out, and the murderer has already pressed his fingerprints."
In fact, the earliest promises made by the Siler people were all oral, but what they said was true to their word, and they rarely went back on their word. Methods such as signing and pressing fingerprints did not exist in the Siler tribes before.
However, after the trade with the Tang Dynasty entered a prosperous period, especially the emergence of trading centers, the grassland tribes learned the method of pressing seals as evidence in their transactions with the merchants of the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, since then, written contracts began to be used in various tribes.
It became popular, especially some promises and confessions, which were preserved in writing and imitated the signatures and seals of the Tang Dynasty as proof.
When everyone saw the great Chanyu giving his confession, they all stared at him and really wanted to know what the confession contained.
Qin Xiao glanced at it, calmly, but he was really curious in his heart. He didn't know whether the confession was true or false. Could it be that Donglin Khan really got some confession when he interrogated Shen Xuangan?
Shen Xuangan confessed the truth to himself last night. The real murderer behind the scenes was Mr. Da from the pawnshop. However, this matter was unusual. Qin Xiao did not believe that Shen Xuangan would confess Mr. Da to Buliu Master.
If he really wanted to confess Mr. Da, he could do it directly in the sweat tent. There was no need to endure the pain and wait for him to go alone before telling him in detail last night.
Shen Xuangan clearly only wanted to tell the truth to himself, and had no intention of confessing to Master Bu Liu, so when this confession suddenly appeared, Qin Xiao was quite curious. Like everyone else, he wanted to know what Shen Xuangan had confessed to.
something.
Heihe Tutun was considered highly respected among the leaders of the tribes. He asked respectfully: "Great Chanyu, what did you say in your confession?"
The Great Chanyu nodded to Donglin Khan, who then said: "The murderer confessed that he was indeed sent by the Liaodong Army. Although Wang Xingchao did not personally come forward to give him the task, the person who came forward was called Wang Heng, and he was An
The long history of the Eastern Protectorate."
"Wang Heng?" Someone immediately said: "Da Shanyu, I know this person. This person is Wang Xingchao's clan uncle, and it was Wang Xingchao's support that allowed him to sit in the position of chief historian of the Protectorate. As far as I know, this person
People are greedy by nature, lustful and greedy, and have no talents."
"That's right. But because of this person's relationship with Wang Xingchao, no one dares to provoke him." Someone continued: "If this person sent people to Modong to spread the disease, then he must have been instructed by Wang Xingchao. Without Wang Xingchao's instructions, he would have been killed."
Wang Heng doesn’t have the guts.”
Hearing this, many people present could not help but nod their heads.
"Wang Heng's talent is mediocre, he only knows how to make money and play with women." One person said slowly: "Wang Heng didn't have the brains to plan such an insidious and vicious plan. It must have been carefully planned by Wang Xingchao's group. Wang Xingchao did not personally assign the task to the murderer.
, naturally wanted to clear up the relationship. He was worried that if the matter was really exposed, the murderer would not be able to prove that he personally sent him, so the most he could do was to place the blame on Wang Heng. Wang Heng was just a mediocre member of the Liaodong Army, and he had no choice but to do so.
, throw Wang Heng out as a scapegoat."
Everyone was talking about it, and some people couldn't help but ask: "Is it possible that this matter really has nothing to do with Wang Xingchao, but was done by his men without telling him?"
"Are you speaking for Wang Xingchao?" Someone immediately choked: "Without Wang Xingchao's consent, how dare Wang Heng issue such an order? Doesn't he want his head anymore?"
Donglin Khan saw that everyone was talking a lot, and some even started to quarrel and cough heavily. When everyone's voices gradually calmed down, he slowly said: "Some of you may not know yet, but the Emperor of Tang Dynasty issued a decree a few months ago.
According to the decree, General Qin controlled all the troops and horses in the four northeastern counties. In other words, the Liaodong Army should also obey General Qin's orders. However, many Liaodong generals such as Wang Xingchao did not obey the emperor's will and did not hand over their military power.
They launched a massive war in the Northeast and directly mobilized troops to attack Long Rui's army, so the Liaodong Army was actually no longer the Tang army, but a rebel army of the Tang state!"
As soon as this statement came out, more people were shocked.
When Qin Xiao saw this, he said sternly: "What Donglin Khan said is not wrong. The saint has a purpose to confer the title of General, who will be the champion of the Tang Dynasty, to control the troops and horses of the four northeastern counties, and vigorously rectify the troops and horses of the northeast.
However, for their own selfish desires, Wang Xingchao and many of his generals not only disobeyed the order, but also took the lead in launching an attack on Long Rui's army. Although they were defeated in the end, their actions were already treason. As a champion general,
We have no choice but to destroy the Wang Xingchao rebels for the Tang Dynasty." He glanced at the crowd and saw that everyone's eyes were on him, and then slowly said: "Many people think that the fight between the two armies in the Northeast is for power and profit.
, Long Rui’s army wanted to replace the Liaodong Army and become the master of the Northeast, but this is not actually the case. Today’s war in the Northeast is just a battle to exterminate the rebellion, and it has never been about fighting for control of the Northeast.”
In fact, many people here really don't know about the imperial edict forged by Qin Xiao, and they don't believe that Qin Xiao's battle against the Liaodong Army was not for control of the Northeast.
However, everyone here was still surprised that the Liaodong Army was a rebel. They all knew in their hearts that if the Liaodong Army had no name for justice and only fought against Long Rui's army in the name of rebels, then Long Rui's army would have the power to destroy the rebels.
The banner is already in a nominal absolute advantage, and it will gain the absolute initiative in the war. Under this situation, the defeat of the Liaodong Army is only a matter of time.
"It is precisely because Wang Xingchao led the troops to rebel that there is no way out now." Donglin Khan said solemnly: "They are rebels and are no match for General Qin on the battlefield. They are in a difficult situation, so they will use the epidemic at this time to attack
He framed General Qin and Long Rui's army and aroused the hatred of the Modong tribes against Long Rui's army. Once the plan succeeds, Wang Xingchao can use the hatred of the Xile tribes towards Long Rui's army and let us join forces with his troops to deal with it.
General Qin, the murderer's confession made their plan very clear, and the Great Chanyu and Ben Khan were convinced that there was nothing wrong with the confession, so they informed everyone at today's banquet."
"boom!"
Everyone heard the voice and looked over immediately, only to see Heihe Tutun punching the low table in front of them. The utensils on the table were shaking. Heihe Tutun looked furious and said sternly: "Over the years, Liaodong has
The army asked for everything from us, calling us around like slaves. The commander, considering the overall situation, has always been patient and tried his best not to break up with them. But I didn't expect that they would resort to such vicious and despicable methods in order to drag us into the water.
, there is no honor at all." He stood up abruptly, faced the old Chanyu, bowed with his arms crossed, and said angrily: "Old Chanyu, when our army surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, we vowed to always be in harmony with the Tang Dynasty. Let's not talk about Liaodong.
The army committed such a vicious act against our troops, even if this was not the case, they are Tang rebels. If we are involved with the Tang rebels, we will betray Tang and violate our original oath!"
Qin Xiao heard this and glanced sideways at Lao Shanyu. He saw Lao Shanyu caressing his long beard calmly and calmly, but he was greatly surprised.
This great chanyu is indeed no ordinary character.
There is no doubt that the Great Chanyu made careful arrangements before today's banquet. Both Donglin Khan and Heihe Tutun were obviously acting.
But the purpose of Shanyu's doing this is actually very simple. He has clearly made a decision to completely separate from the Liaodong Army.
Qin Xiao knew that the real culprit behind the scenes was Mr. Da, but Da Shanyu took out Shen Xuangan's so-called confession and pointed the real culprit at the Liaodong Army. Qin Xiao knew that the confession was most likely false.
Perhaps the old Shanyu will continue to secretly investigate the real culprit behind the scenes, but he obviously will not miss this opportunity. Overnight, he has already figured out how to use this incident to break with the Liaodong Army and directly accuse him of spreading the epidemic.
On the head of the Liaodong Army.
Even if some people in the tribe want to continue to maintain a close relationship with the Liaodong Army, if this label is attached to the Liaodong Army, no one will dare to continue to support the Liaodong Army.
It had only been half a day from last night to now, but the old Chanyu had already made a decision that was related to Bu Liuda's life and death. Qin Xiao had to admire this old Chanyu's determination and courage.
Moreover, Lao Dan performed this scene in front of him today. Even though he was expressing Bu Liuda's position, he was actually sending Qin Xiao a letter of nomination.
Old Shanyu obviously knew that in this battle between the two armies in the Northeast, there was no possibility of swinging between the two sides, so he simply abandoned the Liaodong Army and went to the Long Rui Army. The confession in his hand was sent to Qin Xiao
