Chapter 532 The cold wind kills people

Xueyantuo Royal Court

Viewed from a distance, Xue Yantuo Khan looked like a devil at this moment. His eyes were empty and lifeless, staring straight outside. For a whole winter, this guy never left his tent. Every day In addition to drinking, beating people, or just sitting around like this.

If someone wanted to calculate it, then the time spent sitting still should be the longest. There were many people coming to report news from various places, and it was as if he had not heard it. Even though a lot of the news was very important, in his mind It was just a few sentences. Although these news might affect the lives of thousands of people, he really didn't want to care about it at the moment. He really didn't know how to take over this mess.

"What's going on? Why did this kind of disaster happen? Why should I punish this Great Khan? Did I do something wrong? Even if I did something wrong, God, you, a thief, can't Do this to me."

When the guards in charge of security around heard this voice, they all held their breath. Whenever their Khan cursed to the sky, that was when the Khan was the most furious. If anyone was a little bit If something goes wrong, everyone will fall to the ground, which is the basic operation.

Xue Yantuo Khan believed that this was God's injustice to him. He had never encountered such a big snowstorm in the past. People everywhere opposed him. His officials led people to defect to the Tang Dynasty, and there were thousands of cattle, sheep, and livestock. He froze to death. Anyway, there is no good news in this world.

Some of the ministers around looked at each other, and they didn't know how to persuade them. This year's natural disaster was indeed a bit severe, but if we want to say that the culprit is responsible for the current situation, Xue Yantuo Khan can be said to take the greatest credit. , if you could distribute living materials evenly, how could so many people freeze to death?

This is a natural and man-made disaster, and the impact of man-made disasters is slightly greater. Many tribes do not have any food. How do you expect them to live? You sent your most elite troops, not to stop the attack of the Tang army, but to plunder all the tribes under you, leaving them with endless cold. Why do you let these people continue to support you? What about his rule?

When Xue Yantuo Khan was cursing God, the sound of horse hooves was heard in the distance. The guy also stood tremblingly. Because of long-term drinking, he was in a state of confusion for at least ten hours a day, but he heard The sound of horse hooves coming from the east should mean there is important news.

"Did the Tang army attack? Did the Tang army attack?"

Hearing his panicked voice, his subordinates became even more panicked. Even if the Tang army attacked, you should give your subordinates some confidence. Now that you are so panicked, how can the rest of you be calm? Where is your mind? The Tang army has not arrived yet, and you seem to have been defeated.

"Report to the Great Khan, we have not received any news for five days in a row. Those people all defected with Captain Zuo, right?"

Although it is not news about the attack of the Tang Dynasty army, it is not good news. Xue Yantuo Khan has placed many spies in his tribe, and every once in a while someone will send him news. Now Angur Tai surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, and those people would often send back some news, but now it has been five days, and no news has been sent back. Maybe those people have been killed, or those people have also surrendered to the Tang Dynasty.

"These heartless people must have defected to the Tang Dynasty. I captured all their family members, then tied them to horses and dragged them to death on the grassland, letting all the Everyone goes and watches, if anyone dares to betray me, this will be their fate, no one can plead for them, the same is true for anyone who dares to plead."

Xue Yantuo Khan said hysterically that now he would not tolerate anyone betraying him. Captain Zuo's surrender had destroyed all the defenses in his heart. Anyone who had the slightest suspicion would immediately kill his whole family. Even if it turns out to be a misunderstanding later, he will never lower his head and admit his mistake to those people. Of course, there is no use in admitting his mistake. Can the person he killed be resurrected?

"Khan, wait, we can't kill people casually. Perhaps because the road is blocked, their news has not been conveyed. You must know that they are in the enemy camp to collect news for us. This in itself is a very dangerous thing. If If we kill their family members, will anyone still work for us in the future?”

An old minister really couldn't stand listening to it. Although his official position was not very high, he was just a general with a force of ten thousand people, but this man was very senior in Xueyantuo. When his father, the current Khan of Xueyantuo, was still there, he was already A general.

"No one was doing anything for Ben Khan. Ben Khan killed all their families. Why are you still standing there? Find all the family members of those spies and drag them all to death for your sake." You are a close minister of my father, I will spare your life this time, but if you dare to disobey my orders next time, I will kill you too."

Seeing the trembling appearance of the old minister, Xue Yantuo Khan seemed to feel his majesty. The guy breathed a sigh of relief, and none of the ministers below dared to say a word.

This is the result for the most respectable old man. If those of us stand out rashly, we don’t know whether we will be able to see the sun tomorrow. Khan’s knife is less than half a meter away from him. It’s been a fierce time these days. , this guy can draw a knife and kill someone at any time.

"Where's the Prime Minister?"

After returning to his tiger-skin seat, this guy glanced at the tent and found that the Prime Minister was not here. The Prime Minister was the second-largest figure in Xue Yantuo. Could it be that he had also surrendered to the Tang Dynasty at this moment?

"Replying to Khan, the Prime Minister was infected with wind and cold yesterday. We have tried all methods, but nothing works now."

A maid whispered that the prime minister is the wise man of Xue Yantuo. This guy is half of the Chinese blood and has always given Xue Yantuo many good ideas.

After hearing this, Khan Xue Yantuo remembered that it was precisely because the Prime Minister kept coughing yesterday that Khan Xue Yantuo drove him out. If he was infected with the wind and cold on the grassland, it would be almost equal to half his life. They are all gone, but nothing can be done without him...
