Chapter 799 Dou Hongxian
--Remember!
"Who said that the Hedong camps are all turtles with cramped heads?" Liu Wuzhou stood on the high Bailong Mountain, looking at Linquan City in the southeast.-./-./ Under the night, wisps of white smoke had already risen there. Liu Wuzhou couldn't tell whether the winner was drinking happily or burning the bodies of the dead on the way. He looked back at the small school robe that he snatched from the road, and more than a thousand people gathered around him, and sighed: "In today's battle, I realized that we were not even as good as a group of cramped heads."
Liu Wuzhou's Shangshu Zuo Pushe Yuan Junzhang turned his head and looked at Liu Wuzhou, but he didn't say a word.
Jin Ke, the general of the Left Wu Guard, frowned and said, "Chen Jun endured for two years, but unexpectedly, he was so sharp when he counterattacked. What exactly were the firearms in Sanggan River today? They were so powerful. Who else in the world can stop the Beichen attack?"
Song Xiaoxian also sighed, looking at the Han monarchs and ministers who had lost 50,000 yuan in just one day and even the capital was defeated. "Your Majesty, you said that Chen Kefu endured for two years this time and suddenly counterattacked. Why did he defeat the Shen family in Jiangnan, but suddenly withdrew his troops and surrendered all counties and counties in Jiangnan to the Shen family. Why didn't they destroy the Shen family and recover Jiangnan, but suddenly sent troops to Hedong again and came to us in one fell swoop? This matter is a bit confusing no matter how you look at it."
"Dog-Jin Chen Pojun, who held Shen Faxing, who caught his father, didn't beat him, but he was obsessed with us. I hate this kind of unfilial person who doesn't even care about his father." Jin Ke was depressed and grilled on the charcoal fire with a piece of horse meat. In order to avoid the fire raising, he had to dig a big hole on the ground and then make a fire in the hole.
The Han monarchs and ministers sighed groaningly. In the past two years, Beichen defended all over Hedong. The small-scale fight made them think that Beichen was already like that. Who would have thought that the sick cats in the past were so brave as soon as they launched their might, which reminded them of the reputation of the Hebei army swept across the Central Plains.
The Yellow River at the Bailong Mountain is rushing day after day in the night, and the smell of the Yellow River full of fishy smell is filled with water. A small fleet of boats is rowing quietly on the Yellow River. However, no lights are set in the night. Even apart from the low sound of the boat slurry breaking through the waves, there is no sound of a roar.
The boat lime gently rowed across the water, as if the carp in the Yellow River were leaping gently on the water in the night. The autumn wind made a low whine sound across the banks of the Yellow River, adding a bit of mystery to the night.
In the fleet of small fishing boats, a general shrouded in silver armor was standing at the bow of the ship. He was tall and arrogant, and his gorgeous armor was draped on his body, making him even more majestic. He stood there motionlessly, pressing his long sword at his waist, and the eyes under the helmet and armor were firm and bright. The moon-colored wine on the night sky reflected a faint light.
Zhang Xuansu was wearing a moon-white robe. Standing there, looking at the general on the bow of the boat, sighed softly in his heart, and walked forward.
Looking at the guards around him with hair and leather armor, Zhang Xuansu whispered: "Is all this really worth it?"
The tall general was silent for a long time after hearing this. He said for a long time: "The arrow was opened without turning back. I thought about hiding my name and then living in seclusion with hundreds of people. But there is no such good thing in this world. No matter where we go, we have to be bound by this and that. Two years ago, the Tiel tribe attacked our pastures and captured our people. From that moment on, I already knew that we could not really enjoy a peaceful life."
"But in order to save everyone, do you really don't regret it if you choose this path?"
"I didn't choose the road, I had no choice."
Zhang Xuansu looked at the guards around him, still feeling a little unwilling, and advised: "Do you understand what you are doing now?"
"Of course I understand."
"Really understand?"
"real."
"Do you have no distinction between Chinese and foreigners in your heart?" Zhang Xuansu still did not give up and said painstakingly.
A bitter chuckle sounded, and there seemed to be an extremely heavy feeling in the sound.
Instead of looking back, he raised his head and looked at the sparse stars in the sky, "Do you know how I found the reinforcements two years ago?"
"You have never mentioned this matter, nor have we asked about it. Are you willing to talk about it now?" Zhang Xuansu said.
"Actually, there is nothing to say. At that time, I escaped the pursuit of the Tiel Cavalry with dozens of cavalry. Then you know, the vast grassland is vast and the earth is so big that I have nowhere to go and no reinforcements to move. The hundreds of women, children were all entrusted by my father to me and let me take good care of them. Even the little brother who my father had entrusted to me with one hand was kidnapped. At that time, I was filled with self-blame and regret, and even planned to rush back to fight with the Tiel Cavalry several times."
The general paused, raised his hand to take off the helmet on his head. Under the vague moonlight, he shook his head lightly, reached out and unbuttoned the hairband on his head. Suddenly, his long black hair, which was as bright as a waterfall, slid down like a silky hair, spreading on his shoulders.
She turned her head gently, but it was Dou Hongxian, who escaped from Hebei more than two years ago, following Dou Jiande's daughter outside the frontier.
But at this time, Dou Hong's line had a little more vicissitudes and maturity, and there was always a cold feeling on its body, but its eyes became more and more calm, like two bottomless autumn waters.
She gently tweaked her hair and let out a long sigh, as if she was immersed in the past two years ago.
"Just when I was extremely confused, I met a Xi tribe. There were hundreds of cavalry on the other side, but we only had more than ten cavalry. In a tragic encounter, the Xi tribe did not give us a chance to speak. The brothers fought to the death, but fell one by one. In the end, my war horse was trapped, I was captured, and I was taken back to their tribe camp. I became the female slave of the tribe leader!"
Zhang Xuansu looked at Dou Hongxian in surprise. He was an official of the Sui Dynasty. Later, Dou Jiande broke through the city he guarded. Because the people pleaded for him, Dou Jiande did not kill him, so he surrendered Dou Jiande. After following Dou Jiande for several years, he also knew Dou Jiande and the Hejian rebel generals. He knew that Dou Hongxian was not an ordinary woman, but he never thought that Dou Hongxian had such an experience. "Why have you never talked to us?"
"What can I say about this? On the grassland, the strong are always like this. In short, I was a slave to the leader in the tribe of Xi for about half a month. Suddenly one day, a group of Turks attacked the camp of the Xi people. They killed their soldiers, took their animals, snatched their women and children, and slaves. I was taken to the tent of the former Eastern Turks and became a slave to a Turkic noble. Until about half a year later, I met a Central Plains man who had long defected to the Turkic people. That man was once the subordinate of Wang Xuba. Later, my father and Wei Daoer launched a war, killed Wang Xuba, and seized his throne. The man fled outside the frontier and defected to the Turkic people."
Speaking of this, Dou Hongxian smiled, "Actually, there are many Han people outside the Great Wall now, I believe you have known it a long time ago. Some of them escaped from soldiers and bandits, some of them were forced to be captured by the powerful people in the Central Plains and those who were sold to the Turks as slaves, and some of them were defeated in the Central Plains like us. In short, because the man recognized my identity, it was later passed to the Turkic Khan King. Finally, the Turkic Khan General Ye Hu came to see me and proposed to take it as my concubine. I made a request, which was to let him rescue all you kidnapped by Tiel people. As long as he did, I would be his woman."
Zhang Xuansu sighed lightly: "The Turkic people later Turkic Tielite people, I heard that they destroyed thirteen of their tribes in a row. When we were rescued by the Turkic people, we still didn't understand why the Turkic people and Tielite people started a war. It turns out that the reason behind this is you."
"But I heard that Tongyehu was able to become the Turkic Khan back then, because he formed an alliance with Chen Pojun, so he defeated Dalu Khan in one fell swoop and won the position of Khan. Didn't you worry that Tongyehu Khan would hand you over to Beichen?"
Dou Hongxian smiled slightly: "Old Zhang is right. The relationship between the Khan of Tongye Hu and Chen Pojun was indeed very good. Chen Pojun helped Tongye Hu become the Khan of Turkic Khan, and Tongye Hu also refused the envoys sent by Li Yuan and other envoys to the alliance to borrow troops. Even Tongye Hu sent his daughter to Hebei to marry Chen Pojun, and the two had a close relationship. However, that was the past. Tongye Hu sent his daughter to Hebei, but Chen Pojun was reluctant to marry the former Sui family to the Eastern Turkic Princess to him. Not only that, Chen Kefu even began to secretly support the Xi tribe, the Jun tribe, the Tiel Khanate, and the nobles of the former Eastern Turkic Khanate secretly fought against Tongye Hu's eastern expedition, hindering him from unifying the eastern Turkic tribes and rebuilding the Turkic Empire."
"No matter what kind of alliance it is, the most basic thing about the basic is interests. When Tongye Hu and Chen Pojun went from the intimate relationship between allies to the gradual prevention and even hostile relationship, the same was true. Otherwise, why did you think I could go from a female Turkic slave to the current Tongye Hu Kedun in just two years? All of this is because Tongye Hu and Chen Pojun have finally come to an end."
Zhang Xuansu frowned and said for a long time: "But the Chinese and foreigners are ultimately a big defense. You can't ignore the defense of the Chinese and foreigners in the Central Plains because of family grudges? This time you took the initiative to lead troops south to support Liu Wuzhou, but have you thought about the consequences carefully? Once the Turks and the Central Plains really go into full war, then the Central Plains, which are just about to be unified, may be countless people who will fall into the water and fire."
"The world is unkind and treats all things as straw dogs! Mr. Zhang, without me, Dou Hong Line, he can still do Zhang Hong Line, Wang Hong Line, and the battle between the Central Plains and the grassland tribes will not be different because of me. What's more, in order to defeat Chen Pojun, I am willing to pay any price!" Dou Hong Line said indifferently.
