Great Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 107 Chapter 110
The royal court of the Western Turks is located at Qianquan in the north of Shiguo, that is, between Suiye Shui and Zhenzhu River, not far from Yibohai.

It's just that the royal court of the Western Turks is located in the southwest of Yibohai, while Zuo Ming's Jinshan tribe is in the east of Yibohai, near the Geluolu tribe.

Facing a map in the past few days, Tong Eshe almost looked cross-eyed.

Twenty recruiting teams in a row were intercepted, and according to the reports from the spies, there were ten large tribes.Moreover, those ten big tribes were the ones who raised objections when he ascended the throne of Khan.

I was just enlisting a few people to build a palace, and it was abhorrent that these people would react so strongly.

The most hateful thing is that small tribe called "Jinshan tribe". They are the ones who started this incident.Although they were also forced to cause an avalanche afterward, and most of them died on the golden mountain, and it was no good, but when he thought that this group of people did not die, he was so angry that his teeth itch!
And just when she was full of resentment, a human voice came in from outside the hall

"Great Khan! Bogchi has returned from Baxi Secret Ministry! Please see the Great Khan!"

"Announce him in!"

Attention was finally drawn back, Tong E set raised his head and said.

"Yes! Sweat!"

The people outside the hall replied respectfully, and then retreated.

Not long after, a tall and thin Turkic man walked into the palace set up by Tong'e, who presumably was the Bogbeg.

"How? What did they say?"

Raising his eyes to look at Berg Qi, Tong E set asked indifferently.

"Report to the Great Khan, as you expected, they do not admit that they ever intercepted the conscript team!"

Covering his chest with his hands, Borgchi bowed deeply.

"Hmph! Of course they won't admit it! This is a serious crime of treason!" Tong Eshe said with a sneer, "What about the other tribes? How did they react?"

"They are as calm as Ba Ximi, but when I get along with them, I can catch a strong murderous aura!"

After pondering for a while, Berg said cautiously.

He was just a spy, and it was his responsibility to report the situation at that time, but it was by no means within the scope of his responsibility to make judgments.All this can only be decided by Tong'e.

"Murderous? Good! Actually, he has murderous intentions towards Ben Khan! It seems that after the death of the elder brother, there are many people who dislike Ben Khan! They all want to fight for Ben Khan's position!"

Hearing this, Tong Eshe's expression darkened instantly.Afterwards, he suddenly pulled out the soldier talisman at his waist and threw it to Bergqi, "Nowadays, almost all the nomadic herdsmen on the grassland have been caught, and some of them have already hidden after hearing the news. After the palace is built, we can only attack them! Just let them spit out those people who have been amputated!
Give me the courage to do this!Fooling people is only second, giving them a blow is the most important thing!It's okay if they don't have a different heart, but if they have a different heart, they can't help but want to make a move!At that time, we will subdue them with the momentum of thunder! "

"Yes! Beggar Berg must let them know that the majesty of the Khan is inviolable!"

After receiving the soldier talisman, Bogqi bowed again, and then exited the hall.

In September of the eighth year of Zhenguan, the Western Turkic Khan Court suddenly sent a large army to the ten tribes to confiscate the newcomers who built the palace.

However, since the establishment of the Western Turkic Khan Court, its power has grown so powerful that it suppressed and dispersed the ten major tribes within half a month.All of a sudden, the tribes of the entire prairie came forward to surrender, so panicked!

Since then, the entire Western Turks have also entered the period of absolute rule established by Tong E.

After accomplishing such a feat, Tong Eshe was quite proud, and acted even more recklessly.

It's just that he is as proud as he is, but he doesn't seem to realize that the danger is approaching.

When the Western Turkic Khan Court attacked the top ten tribes, the Jinshan tribe had already intercepted nearly 6000 wandering young men who had been arrested.After that, they took the family members of those people to Yi Bohai and resettled them.

In this way, the Jinshan tribe directly became a large tribe with a population of over ten thousand.And most importantly, after going through this incident, the cohesion of the tribe is also unprecedentedly strong!
Because those newcomers know that with the current status quo of Yixi Turks, if they want to survive, they can only rely on the protection of the tribe!
This is good for wandering ethnic groups. All their belongings are cattle, sheep and horses. They can leave when they want, and stay when they want.Unlike Datang, if so many people gather, eating and drinking alone will be a difficult problem to solve, after all, the fields cannot be taken away.

After the army was strong and the horses were strong, Yugushe became a little swollen, and began to recruit those who had been dispersed from large tribes.But then, they were stopped by Zuo Ming and Luoye Jialan.

Luoye Jialan was worried that the sovereignty of the tribe would be lost, while Zuo Ming felt that it was not the right time.

After stopping the establishment of Yugu, Zuo Ming set up a school in the tribe, and began to teach those Turkic people how to write Chinese characters and speak official language.Of course, this is also thanks to Luoye Jialan's translation.Otherwise, he would really be talking to a duck.

After all, those wandering herdsmen are different from the original tribes of the Jinshan tribe. The original tribesmen of the Jinshan tribe are the aristocratic survivors of the Eastern Turkic Khanate, and they can speak some Chinese, but the wandering herdsmen can't speak a word.Those who are capable can only listen to a sentence or two.

At the beginning, those Turkic people were not very willing to learn, and it was only perfunctory when they entered the school.After all, that was the time when the Turkic script suddenly took shape. Although the Turkic script at that time was not perfect and only consisted of some pinyin, it was still possible to express some simple meanings.

It's just that as time went by, they discovered the benefits of the basic characters and arithmetic taught by Zuo Ming, and they no longer rejected them.

Turks at that time were actually very similar to Tubo. Those who did not understand Turkic language and Chinese characters mostly used knots and pictures to record events. There were too many ambiguities in this way, and basically only those who recorded events could understand.

With Chinese characters, it is different. They can express their meanings extremely richly. Even if they are going out to write a letter home, they don’t need to use the special secret code that has been agreed.

Of course, the most important thing is that after they have written words, they learn to keep accounts, and if they learn to keep accounts, they also have the possibility of doing business!

The business here does not refer to the original business model on the prairie!The so-called business when there was no written language was at most a small business of bartering, which was not enough for the circulation of various Turkic goods.

For the convenience of teaching, Zuo Ming took out his own Zuo's Prophecy and Zuo's Pinyin. These things are originally for children to learn, and it is naturally much easier for adults to learn.Some smart people even learned a lot in just half a month.

Once this person knows more things, he will want to show off, so in the next long period of time, Jinshan Department set off a wave of reciting poems and fighting against each other.

The poems sung by those Turkic people are really fucking ugly, and they are also unsightly, such as "The younger brother is covered in pants, and the younger sister is smiling in her skirt; whoever drools more depends on who is more coquettish", or "The sunset in the long river returns to the swallow , my sister-in-law is washing vegetables; squatting down and looking at it is really wonderful, there are red, black and white", Zuo Ming's scalp tingles.

If these poems were passed on to Chang'an, would he not be laughed to death?

Depressed, Zuo Ming naturally tried his best to stop those Turkic big men who were showing off their anger from reciting poems, but although those people respected him, they were addicted to reciting poems, and he couldn't stop it if he said that he could stop it ?

On the surface, although those Turkic men accepted Zuo's life, secretly they were still reciting poems and having fun with some Turkic women who were full of enthusiasm.

Seeing that this unhealthy trend could not be overcome, Zuo Ming could only sigh deeply, but at the same time as teaching reading and literacy, he gave them an additional class called "Poetry Writing".

As the name suggests, the main purpose of this lesson is to teach those Turkic people to compose poetry!
Of course, this lesson does not require everyone to learn it. If you don’t have the hobby of reciting poems and composing Fu, you don’t need to learn it.

While teaching a group of Turkic people to read and write, Zuo Ming also sent someone to take a letter to Datang, but it took more than a month for the person who sent the letter to go, and it was October in a blink of an eye, and it turned out to be No news at all.

Feeling a little worried, Zuo Ming sent three more messengers at the beginning of October, but after waiting till the end of October, there was still no movement from those people.

However, at this time, Zuo Ming didn't have the leisure to care about Xin.

Because at the beginning of November, there was a sudden heavy snowfall on the prairie. The snow lasted for a month. Although a lot of preparations were made in advance, many cattle and sheep in Jinshan Department were still frozen to death due to the cold weather. !
This is true for the Jinshan tribe, let alone other tribes on the prairie!It was really mournful, with corpses all over the place!

Food is second to none, no matter how bad it is, there are dead cattle and sheep that can be eaten, but the most important thing is that there are no quilts on the prairie. In this extremely cold environment with the lowest temperature nearly minus [-] degrees, the herdsmen on the prairie are really It's a little unbearable.

Many herdsmen can only fall asleep by hugging their cattle and sheep. Otherwise, they are really worried that they will not be able to sleep.

This was the hardest New Year Zuo Ming had had since he came to Datang. The blanket made of sheepskin was useless at all, even if it was covered with ten layers, he still felt cold.Fortunately, they were backed by mountains with many trees, otherwise he wouldn't know what to do.
