Chapter 753 Situation Crisis
Although Lin Xuan's injury is almost healed, but the horse rides fast and bumps, and there is still a slight pain, so the speed is not fast.
It took an hour to walk less than twenty miles, which is very slow.
At this moment, there was a rush of hoofbeats from behind, which should be the reason for the slow speed of Lin Xuan and his party. Although there were only a dozen or so people on the other side, their voice covered the voices of hundreds of Lin Xuan and his party.
Liu Da looked back and said, "Master Hou, the other party should be running after us."
The reason why Liu Da said that was because those people were wearing ordinary uniforms, and besides the armor worn by Lin Xuan and Chang Sun Chong on his side, he looked like a member of the army.
Under normal circumstances, the other party would slow down in order not to cause misunderstanding, but the other party did not intend to slow down, and it was obviously aimed at them.
Lin Xuan glanced at Chang Sun Chong who was not far away, and said thoughtfully: "Let everyone stop and see what they want to do."
"Yes." Liu Da took the order, and quickly ordered, and the whole team stopped after a while.
"Who are you?" When the other party was still dozens of steps away from Lin Xuan, Liu Da led someone to stop him.
The first person cupped his hands and said: "We are the disciples of Zhao Guogong's mansion, and we are ordered to protect my son."
"You guys wait a moment." Liu Da said, came to Lin Xuan, and passed the words to Lin Xuan.
"Go and bring the leader here." Lin Xuan said.
When Chang Sun Chong heard that those people were here to protect him, there was a gleam of joy in his eyes.
Lin Xuan's soldiers along the way ignored him at all. He came out of the clan's mansion without anything. Lin Xuan didn't even prepare a pot of water for him, and he couldn't bear to ask Lin Xuan's soldiers for it. .
Not long after, Liu Da led a big man in strong clothes to Lin Xuan.
"I met the Marquis of Jingyang County. The younger one is the guard of Duke Zhao's mansion. He was ordered to protect my son." The big man saluted.
Lin Xuan said indifferently: "Duke Zhao's mansion is so ostentatious. The eldest Sun Chong was punished by His Majesty to be exiled into the army. This is the first time I have heard that exiled soldiers can bring guards."
"This..." The big man was a little speechless, he was just a guard, and he was completely obeying orders. He didn't know how to refute Lin Xuan's words.
Chang Sun Chong was anxious when he heard this, and said angrily: "Lin Xuan, are you really going to tear your face off with my Chang Sun's family?"
"Changsun Chong, exile is His Majesty's will, but Zhao Guogong sent you guards. Are you here to be punished or to enjoy blessings? I also want to ask Zhao Guogong whether he takes His Majesty seriously." Lin Xuan sneered.
What's the matter of tearing the face and not tearing the face? Changsun Wuji is already hostile to him. Even if he doesn't tear the face, can Changsun Wuji not bother him?
"you…"
Changsun Chong was in a hurry, such a thing was kept secret.
If others know it, they will treat it as if they don't know it, and Li Shimin will not pursue it, but once it is made public, it will be different.
"You can either let them go back, or go back with them." After Lin Xuan finished speaking, he ignored Sun Chong, and told Liu Da: "It's almost time to rest, give orders and get ready to go."
……
Because of the slow travel speed, it took five days to reach the barracks. This is because Lin Xuan got used to it, and the injury was almost healed, so he sped up the speed.
In the end, Chang Sun Chong did not choose to go back, or he did not dare to disobey Li Shimin's will.
Naturally, those guards had no choice but to go back.
Along the way, Chang Sun Chong ate whatever Lin Xuan's soldiers ate, which also made Chang Sun Chong's hatred for Lin Xuan reach its peak.
Lin Xuan could feel Chang Sun Chong's hatred for him from the way Chang Sun Chong usually looked at him, but he didn't care.
Don't look at the grandson's family now in full swing, but Changsun Wuji doesn't have any rights, what he relies on is nothing but the trust of Empress Changsun and Li Shimin.
But Lin Xuan knew that Changsun Wuji had a strong desire for power, otherwise, in history, Li Zhi would not have dealt with Changsun Wuji by abolishing him later.
Regardless of whether Li Chengqian or Li Zhilai succeeds to the throne in the future, the dictatorship of foreign relatives is a problem that the new emperor will have to face.
This is why Lin Xuan is not afraid of the eldest grandson's family.
When Lin Xuan came to the barracks, Xue Rengui, Cheng Chumo and others had lined up at the gate of the barracks to welcome him.
"Welcome the General to return to the camp." Everyone saluted.
Lin Xuan waved his hand and said with a smile, "I'm not here for a while, thank you for your hard work."
When he came to the big tent of the Chinese army, Lin Xuan asked about the situation on the grassland.
"Back to General, Western Turks..." Qin Huaidao explained the situation in the grassland and Lin Xuan in detail.
Generally speaking, the situation in the grassland is similar to what Li Shimin said, and Ashinasheer's life is not easy.
Just two days ago, Ashinasheer led troops to attack a tribe under Tong'e, and Tong'e sent troops in time to surround Ashinasheer.
If it weren't for the existence of Ashina Sheer, Tong Eshe would have wiped out Yuan Qi and ruled the Western Turks long ago, which also made Tong Eshe hate Ashina deeply.
Knowing that Ashinasheer had attacked his tribe, Tong Eshe would naturally not let Ashinasheer go. If Ashinasheer could be wiped out in one fell swoop, then the unification of Western Turks would be just around the corner.
In fact, this sneak attack plan was planned by Ashinasheer in one fell swoop.
Knowing that Tong'e She regarded him as a thorn in his flesh, Ashinasheer deliberately attacked Tong'e's tribe, lured Tong'e to pursue him, and took the opportunity to ambush the soldiers, trying to weaken Tong'e's strength and relieve the pressure.
The previous plan was very successful. After getting the news, Tong Eshe didn't hesitate at all, and immediately dispatched various tribes to surround Ashinasheer.
The grassland is very wide, and there is no terrain to use. This also means that Tong'e needs to divide his troops if he wants to encircle Ashinasheer.
As for the ambush soldiers, as long as they can destroy one or two of the tribe's soldiers and horses, they can achieve the purpose of weakening Tong'e's strength.
Ashinasheer had a good idea, but he ignored Yuan Qi's tribe's hatred for him.
In other words, he overestimated the overall situation of those people.
He knew that those people hated him, but now that the situation was critical, he felt that those people would take care of the overall situation.
However, he overestimated those people. Although those tribes came as agreed, they wanted to weaken Ashinasheer's strength and deliberately delayed the time to send troops.
What is important in war is the speed of soldiers, and their delay in dispatching troops caused Ashinasheer to almost fall into a tight siege.
Although he escaped in the end, the loss of his soldiers and horses was very serious.
Ashinasheer originally had 2 soldiers and horses, but after several battles with Tong'e, there were more than [-] soldiers left.
In this battle, nearly 2 people were lost, and only about 5000 people remained after breaking through.
In this battle, not to mention the loss of troops, Ashinasheer's plan also fell through, and the goal of weakening Tong'e's strength was not achieved at all.
Ashina's strength was greatly weakened, Tong Eshe naturally would not let go of such a good opportunity, and was already mobilizing the army, ready to destroy Yuan Qi in one fell swoop.
