Chapter 1827 I conceal the sky and cross the sea, and finally reach the

grassland!

Youzhou is located in the northeast of Chang'an. Together with Jizhou,

Yunzhou, and Fengzhou, it has built a strong military barrier for the northern

border of Datang. Traveling northward from Youzhou for seventy miles, you will

enter the Turkic boundary, and then thirty miles northward, you will be able

to reach the Yating of the Turk Khan.

A grassland khan set up his own palace on the border of the Tang Dynasty. This

seems to have a lot of unreasonable points, but there are reasons for all

this.

Tuli Khan, Ashina's name, Shibobi, son of Shibi Khan. In the second year of

Wude, Shibi Khan died of illness, Shi Bobi was not able to succeed Khan

because of his young age, and his uncle, Tulifu, was succeeded by Ro Khan.

After Chuluo Khan succeeded to the throne, he appointed Shibobi as the Nibu

Shi and placed him in the eastern part of the Turkic region (its land borders

the northern part of Youzhou in the Tang Dynasty).

In this way, if the Tang Dynasty attacks the Turks in the future, Shibobi’s

subordinates will be the first to bear the brunt and can resist Chuluo Khan

for a while; if the Turks attack the Datang, Shibobi’s subordinates can act as

vanguards and act as a vanguard. Khan charged into battle!

I don't know if Shibi Khan learned that his brother treated his son this way

in the spring, would he lift the coffin board with anger. But this is not over

yet.

In the four years of Wude, Chuluo Khan passed away, and Shi Bobi another

uncle, Duo, succeeded to the throne, which is now Jie Li Khan. After Jie Li

Khan ascended the throne, in order to win over the original Shibi Khan’s old

ministry, he appointed Shiba Khan as the little Khan, in charge of the Khitan,

Mohe and other ministries, named Tuli Khan, but the position of Tuli’s tooth

court was not Change, still connected to Youzhou in the south, and located in

the east of Turks, became a special "military barrier" between Li Er and Jie

Li!

At this time, a caravan was driving on the grassland, and the square they were

moving forward was the Ya Ting of Tuli Khan!

There are more than 20 people in this caravan. The leader of the caravan is

slightly fat, dressed in a round-necked green satin, with a sash around his

waist, and his long hair is not tied up, instead he is tied into pigtails,

just like that. Wear it casually, this is a typical Turkic costume!

Look at the twenty-something people behind the businessman. All of them are

dressed in coarse cloth and leather clothes, their hair is "braided and

draped", and a scimitar is worn around the waist. They all look like Kong Wu

powerful!

Obviously, these people are the guards accompanying the merchant!

In addition to people, this caravan is accompanied by more than a dozen horse-

drawn carriages, the kind of carriages that specialize in transporting goods,

not those that carry people. Through the carriage door, you can see that the

carriage is filled with a dazzling array of goods, including silk, porcelain,

and household utensils in the boiler.

The caravan was walking on the prairie unhurriedly. Suddenly, a group of

sergeants dressed in leather clothes and armour and armed with curved sabers

rushed towards this side.

"Stop~!"

The group of soldiers approached the caravan and immediately reined their

horses to stop. The lead sergeant made a calm face and shouted and asked, "Who

are you?"

As for the language spoken by the sergeant, it is naturally not Chinese, but

Turkic!

From the time that Tumen defeated Rouran to establish the Turkic Khanate in

552, until the Baimei Khan was defeated by the Uyghur and retired from the

stage of history in 745, the sphere of influence continued to expand for more

than two hundred years. The Mongolian Plateau, the Zhungar Basin, and the vast

areas of the Central Asian grasslands. As a powerful nomadic people active on

the northern grasslands in ancient China, the Turks have had an important

influence on the history of China, Central Asia and the world!

In addition, the Turks were the first nomads in ancient China to have their

own characters and languages. Like the Huns and Rouran hundreds of years ago,

they did not have their own languages and characters, and they all used

Chinese characters!

"We are servants of the bones department. On the order of the chief, we have

just shipped a batch of Datang specialties from Taiyuan and are ready to

sacrifice to the Great Khan!"

Facing the sudden road sergeant, the businessman looked as usual. After

looking up and down the more than ten sergeants in front of him, he placed his

right hand on his left chest and leaned over to salute. Then he blurted out in

a fluent and authentic Turkic dialect. .

What is strange is that this place is clearly the site of Tuli Khan, but the

businessman stands on the side of Jieli Khan so clearly, it is really

puzzling! Isn't he afraid that these soldiers will kill them all or arrest

them all and tie them to the Tuli camp?

However, after hearing the businessman's reply, the sergeants did not have any

unusual applications on their faces, and there was no extreme action in their

hands. There was even a trace of fear in the eyes of the leading sergeant, but

it was quickly covered up, and he looked into the carriage. Looking around, he

said, "The Servant Bone Department? What did you transport to Datang? I want

to check!"

The businessman smiled and said: "The things on the carriage are nothing more

than silk, porcelain, and ironware. If you like it, you can pick a few of them

and take them away, as our servant bone department will give them to you! I

just don’t know what you are. Which tribe?"

Turning defense into offense, who would have thought that this businessman

would turn passive into active!

Hearing that the businessman said that each person could pick a few pieces to

take away, there was a hint of greed flashing in the eyes of the dozen or so

sergeants. After all, these things that the businessman said were relatively

common in Datang, but on the grasslands, none of them Not in short supply!

A trace of greed flashed in the head of the sergeant, but he soon returned to

normal. He raised his head and said: "I am a member of the cohort. I will

guard this place by the order of the Great Khan. Since these things are

dedicated to Dake Sweaty, then we naturally won’t take more... uh, one for one

person!"

The Qizhi Tribe, one of the Fifteen Tiele Tribes, is the closest tribe to the

Tuli Khan’s Ya Ting, which belongs to the Jili Khan forces! From this point of

view, the businessman previously said that he was a servant of the bones, it

was an extremely correct decision! Because the Servant Bone Department is near

the court of the Turkic King, it is the direct line of Jie Li Khan!

The merchant heard the words and laughed: "It turns out to be a warrior of the

consortium. Since it was ordered by the Great Khan, please check these goods!"

After all, he made a "please" gesture.

Seeing that the merchant was so open and on the road, the leading sergeant

waved to everyone behind him, saying: "Okay! Since you are friends of the

Servant Bone Department, each brother should take an iron tool!"

After the words were over, everyone cheered, and quickly turned over and

dismounted, and walked towards the carriage loaded with goods. After a while,

some of these people were holding iron pots, and some of them brought up an

iron stove. To the nomads living in the grassland Said that these ironware

from the Central Plains are very scarce, because the people in the grasslands

are not good at making iron, let alone making iron!

Take the iron pot for example, a good iron pot can easily exchange dozens of

sheep on the grassland. Some tribes who are poorly mixed cannot use iron pots,

so they can only use stone pots!

"Okay! Brothers from the Bone Department, let's go! My name is Qifuhe, you are

very angry with me, haha! There are three levels ahead, but you only need to

report my name at that time, they will not I am embarrassed! But you must not

get close to Khan’s tooth court, or you will be arrested!"

The leading sergeant held a black iron pot and grinned at the businessman with

a grin.

From beginning to end, these people just took a piece of iron that they

wanted, but they didn't check the goods on the carriage one by one!

The businessman smiled and leaned over to salute: "Thank you brother Qibihe!"

The sergeant named Qifuhe waved his hand, and then left with all his men

contentedly.

The businessman paused on the spot for a while, and saw the sergeants walking

away, and he said to the guards behind him: "Go! Be sure to get to Turiya

Court before dark!"

Chinese!

At this moment the businessman actually spoke Chinese!

"Here~!"

The two dozen guards behind the businessman clasped their fists in unison.

What is even more bizarre is that they are all speaking Chinese at the moment!

It turned out that they were a group of people from the Central Plains who

came to the grassland in disguise. It's just that the businessman, who was

from the Central Plains, was so fluent in Turkic speaking?

The group set foot on the journey again.

Sure enough, as the Qifuhe said, in the following journey, they encountered

three more levels, but the three words "chifuhe" seemed to be useful among

these Turkic sergeants. Those Turks who came to search originally The soldier

did not embarrass the caravan very much, but the businessman is rich and

powerful. Although he did not suffer any difficulties, he still left some iron

or silk for the sergeants at various levels, making the sergeants all smiles

and threatening to do it again next time. Go to Datang to buy goods, they will

definitely not stop it!

"Okay! Next we should be safe!"

After passing the last hurdle, the headed businessman finally sighed in relief

and said.

"Hey! Duke Ju, you are really good! Those Turkic soldiers were deceived by

you. At the beginning, they will sweat for you in the end!"

Hearing this, all the guards behind the businessman also heaved a sigh of

relief. Among them, the leading guard couldn't help looking at the businessman

with a look of admiration, and said with emotion.

Duke Ju!

It turned out that this businessman dressed as a Turkic was actually Tang

Jian, the prince of Ju, who set out secretly from Chang'an and was ordered to

send the Turkic ambassador more than ten days ago!

Who would have imagined that the grand Duke Tang Ju would pretend to be a

Turkic businessman and speak fluent Turkic language?

At this time, the rest of the guards also looked at Tang Jian with admiration.

This man led them to break through the many levels of Jieli with his own

power. It is hard to not admire him!

Tang Jian stood with his hand ~www.mtlnovel.com~ with a faint smile: "I waited

for this time to go to Turkic. I was dancing on the tip of a knife. In the

future, we will encounter more dangerous situations than today. If you want to

go back alive and be careful about everything, you must be fully prepared when

you wait!"

Tang Jian's beard and hair moved with the wind at this time, just like Zhou Yu

who was talking and laughing, calm, calm and unrestrained. Such a mentality is

almost explosive!

"Yes!"

Everyone responded.

The head of the guard hesitated for a moment, and said: "Duke Ju, there will

be one thing at the end of the puzzle. Why did you tell him to say that we

belong to the Servant Bone Department? This land boundary belongs to the Tuli

Khan. , You said that at the time, you are not afraid that Qi Fu He is a

turbulent person and kills us all?"

He understands some Turkic languages, but he is far less proficient than Tang

Jian. It was only then that Tang Jian and Qi Fu He had understood some of the

conversations. It is precisely because of this that he sweated for Tang Jian!
