Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 2120 Relatives of His Majesty Li Er

Fang Jun naturally has a deep understanding of "guerrilla warfare".

Thinking back to the guerrilla troops of millet and rifles, combined with the guerrilla tactics of "when the enemy advances, we retreat, when the enemy is stationed, we harass, when the enemy is tired, we attack, and when the enemy retreats, we pursue" guerrilla tactics, forcibly dragging down millions of regular troops. A repeat of the Tang army?
It is not appropriate to say that it will be repeated, after all, according to the time dimension, that guerrilla war will kill thousands of years later...

Fang Jun had a big headache.

As long as Xue Yantuo retreated back to the mountain with determination, and came out of the mountain to harass him from time to time, it would be enough to make the Tang army stretched and unbearable.

Even if you travel through time and space to get the aircraft and cannons, it won't work!

Fang Jun got up immediately and said: "General, please forgive me, so I will go to the front line of Longcheng to discuss with the generals under my command, and determine the strategy against the enemy, so as to be safe."

Qi Bi He Li also said: "That's right. Ba Zhuo seems to be reckless and arrogant, but his military talent cannot be ignored. He also has a great prestige in Xue Yantuo, so he must not be underestimated. A certain person should also set off to return to Chang'an. Your Majesty apologises, Erlang's kindness to rescue me this time, I will keep it in my heart, and I will repay it later!"

Although he was imprisoned, he was not in danger of dying, but after all, as a prisoner, it was Fang Jun who broke Xue Yantuo's tooth tent that led to his rescue. This favor must be recorded.

Fang Jun said: "The mountains are high and the water is long, see you in Chang'an!"

*****
Xue Rengui and Xue Wanche had already led the army to set out first, and after clearing out the scattered tribes in the vicinity, they went straight to Longcheng, vowing to defeat Xue Yantuo's remaining forces in one fell swoop, to settle the overall situation, and to overthrow Xue Yantuo.

Fang Jun gathered more than [-] soldiers and rushed to Longcheng to discuss with Xue Rengui and Xue Wanche how to defeat Bazhuo in a single battle and prevent him from escaping into the mountains.

At this moment, a scout suddenly came to report: "More than ten thousand people from the north have come, claiming to be the tribute group of Kagasi, hoping to pay tribute from Chang'an. They heard that the Tang army is going to attack the north, so they ask to see the commander of the Tang army."

"Shargas?"

Fang Jun was at a loss.

This name is relatively unfamiliar, and it probably refers to the emerging overlord on the northern grasslands after the fall of Huihe. However, it gradually disappeared in the long river of history and did not do any earth-shattering events, so ordinary people know little about it.

Fang Jun didn't know what kind of route this Shy Gas was. After thinking for a while, he said, "I'm going to meet you here for a while!"

Since they claim to be a tribute group and want to pay tribute to Chang'an, they will maintain a peaceful attitude towards Tang Dynasty and will not cause any unpredictable disasters to the current overall situation of attacking Mobei.

Immediately, he walked out of the camp and rode his horse to the north for a few miles. He saw an army by the waterside of Anhou, with more than ten thousand people.

Fang Jun rode forward and said loudly: "I am the commander-in-chief of the Tang army, wait for who is the leader, come out and speak!"

Immediately, the other party was crowded, and one rider stood out from the crowd, ran towards Fang Jun, fell closer, and shouted on the horse: "I am the chief of Xiajiasi, Shi Bo Qu Azhan, and led the people to pay tribute to Chang'an. I don't know your name. How to call it?"

He is actually fluent in Chinese. Although his accent is weird and his words are slightly unclear, it sounds fine.

Fang Jun said: "I am Huating Marquis of the Tang Dynasty, Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of War, and Fang Jun, General of Youtunwei!"

The other party said that he was polite, dismounted first, and walked towards Fang Jun.

Fang Jun was sure that the other party was not malicious, so he jumped off his horse and took two steps forward to meet him.

This guy named Shi Bo Qu A Zhan was in his prime, with black hair and curly beard, and his appearance was almost the same as that of a Han Chinese. But Fang Jun looked at the horse team behind him, and there were many people with red hair, green eyes and white faces, whose appearance was very different. More like those Russian or Central Asian races of later generations.

It is indeed rare for a race to have such a large difference in appearance.

"Unknown Your Excellency traveled thousands of miles to pay tribute to Chang'an, why?"

Fang Jun asked politely.

Don't talk about bathing in the majesty of the celestial court, Xia Jiasi is on the upper reaches of the Yenisei River, north of Lake Baikal, and is a thousand miles away from Datang, so why go all the way to flatter Datang?

There must be other reasons.

Shibo Qu Azhan laughed loudly and said: "Being a barbarian, I have admired the prosperity of the Heavenly Dynasty for a long time, and I yearn for it. If I can go to Chang'an in my lifetime to pay homage to the Tang Emperor's demeanor and appreciate the majesty of the Heavenly Dynasty, I will die without regret! They also belonged to the blood of the Han family, but unfortunately fell outside the territory, and it has been hundreds of years! I heard that the Tang Dynasty is using troops against Xue Yantuo, so I led the army to help, and I can also go to Chang'an along the way, and recognize my ancestors and return to my ancestors!"

Fang Jun's eyes were about to pop out, and he was taken aback: "You said you are of the blood of the Han family?"

This guy does look like a Han, but the Han actually became a chief of a foreign race?

Don't talk about it...

Shi Bo Qu A Zhan said loudly: "We are the descendants of the riding captain Li Ling, how can we not be of the Han family blood? It is known that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty is the empress of the parachutist Li Guang, isn't it just a family?"

Fang Jun suddenly realized when he heard the name "Li Ling".

In 99 BC, Emperor Wudi of the Han Dynasty sent Li Guang, the general of the second division, to attack the Huns with [-] cavalry.

The two armies met at Tianshan Mountain, and immediately opened the battlefield, fighting fiercely.In order to reduce the pressure on the frontal battlefield, Captain Li Ling volunteered to lead [-] infantry to go deep into the enemy's territory from the north of Juyanhai to open up a second battlefield and contain the Xiongnu army.One month after Li Ling's troops marched, they fought fiercely with the [-] cavalry led by the Xiongnu Shanyu on Junji Mountain, and killed more than [-] Xiongnu cavalry in ten days.

In the end, because Li Ling was outnumbered and ran out of food, he was captured and surrendered.

There is also a saying that Li Guangli did not support Li Ling, which led to Li Ling's defeat and capture...

After Li Ling surrendered to the Xiongnu, Gongsun Ao, who was at odds with him, once went to the Xiongnu and returned without success, so he falsely accused Li Ling of teaching the art of war to the Xiongnu Shanyu, and planned to invade the Han Dynasty.Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was furious when he heard this, and ordered Li Ling's family to be wiped out.It was not until the Han Dynasty sent envoys to the Xiongnu that it became clear that it was not Li Ling who taught the Xiongnu the art of war, but Li Xu, another general.

The pain of destroying his family made Li Ling decide to stay in the Huns.

The Xiongnu Shanyu attached great importance to Li Ling, not only married his daughter to him, but also made him the king of the right school and the king of Kunjian.

Since then, Li Ling's lineage has thrived in Kunjian.

And Kunjian is the ancient name of Shrewds...

As for the royal family of Li Tang being the descendant of parachutist Li Guang, this is a mystery.

There are two theories about the ancestral blood of the Li royal family.

The seventh patriarch of Gaozu Li Yuan's father's line was named Li Hao, who was the "King Liangwuzhao" of the Xiliang Kingdom at the end of the Jin Dynasty. "Book of Wei Biography" records that Li Fan, a descendant of Li Hao after the destruction of Xiliang, defected to Rouran in the Altai Mountains. Li Fan's son later defected to the Tuoba Northern Wei Dynasty and became the "General Zhenxi". "Great enjoyment of famous utensils, and the world's career will never perish", hereditary aristocratic title.

If this is true, then it is a pure foreign blood, but Li Tang's royal family does not recognize it...

He insisted that he was a descendant of Li Guang. The ancestral home of the Li family was Chengji, Longxi. Tracing their roots, their ancestors were closely related to Li Guang, the parachutist of the Western Han Dynasty.

What the truth is, has long since been annihilated in the long river of history, and no one can trace the source.

One is the descendant of Li Guang's eldest grandson, Li Ling, who was left outside the territory, and the other is the descendant of Li Guang's third son, Li Gan. This is naturally a serious family.

It's just that it's a bit far-fetched to recognize the ancestors and return to the clan...

After all, the age is too long, and the blood has long been thin.

But people have led troops from thousands of miles to help, this kind of favor must be accepted, right?

Even Fang Jundang invited Shibo Qu'a Zhan into the camp and hosted a banquet.

Shi Bo Qu A Zhan hurriedly said: "No hurry, no hurry, there is another gift for the commander-in-chief!"

While Fang Jun was stunned, he saw Shibo Qu A Zhan waving his hands to greet the army behind him, several people rode out, and only when they were in front of Fang Jun did they throw the two tightly bound captives on horseback On the ground, a burst of snow foam was splashed, and there were several wailing sounds.

"These two people, one is Tumidu, the chief of Huihe, and the other is Tumozhi, the nephew of Yinan Khan. After the defeat in Monan, he went to Xiajiasi to ask for reinforcements to resist the Tang army! I am of the same clan as the Emperor of Tang. Xia Jiasi and Datang are brothers' kingdoms, how can they help outsiders beat family members? They are really two idiots!"

Shi Bo Qu A Zhan looked disdainful, full of contempt.

Fang Jun was speechless, looked at the two people in a state of distress on the snowy ground, and thought that the two of you were weak enough, you managed to escape with your life, but you sent yourself to the wolf's mouth all the way...

But what an incredible gift!
It's nothing more than Tumidu, this Tumozhi is a very important person.

As the nephew of Yi Nan Khan, he also has the qualifications to inherit the position of Xue Yantuo Khan...
