Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Ashina rebelled in the Shi Kingdom and claimed to be the Great Khan of the Western Turks, named "Dengli". He also named his younger brother Ashina Simido as Yehu.

    Ashina¡¯s rebellion was like a domino, immediately triggering a response in the river.  Most of the Western Turks garrisoned in various places in the river were old people from the era of Nijue Chuluo Khan. It was only because Shekui Khan had no time to take care of them that they were allowed to stay in their posts.  These people are usually led by Ashina, who is prostrate. Now, Ashina is rebellious, so why don't the others take the opportunity to start an uprising?

    So there were beacon fires everywhere in the whole river.

    Shekui Khan was planning a general attack on Xue Yantuo. He was shocked when he heard that there was chaos in the river.  At this time, he ignored Xue Yantuo's tribe and immediately led the main force to rush to the river, leaving only part of the army to continue besieging Xue Yantuo's tribe in Suiye River.

    For Shekui Khan, the Great Sui Dynasty at this time was considered a scabies disease, because no matter how strong the Sui army was, it was impossible to occupy the grassland, so the two sides were considered enemies, not mortal enemies.

    The Xue Yantuo tribe is a problem of the elbows and armpits, and its tribe threatens the living space of the Western Turks.  But after all, Xue Yantuo's tribe has limited strength and cannot overthrow the Western Turks.

    But this is not the case for the rebellious Western Turkic tribes in the river. This is a thorn in their side.  Although nothing can be done about the illness of the heart and soul, the damage is deep inside.  Although the land in the river is not very important to the Western Turks, Ashina's rebellion threatens the rule of Shekui Khan. Once the chaos in the river spreads, it may lead to the entire Western Region being imitated. Then Shekui can  Sweat is over.

    How did Nijue Chuluo Khan, the Western Turks Khan, fall?  Isn't it because the Shekui Khan caused chaos internally, and was persecuted by the Sui army and Tiele people externally? There were wars everywhere, internal and external troubles, and ultimately defeat.

    Shekui Khan saw the whole process with his own eyes and did not want to follow in the footsteps of Nijue Chuluo Khan.  Therefore, he must completely eliminate Ashina's position before the incident in the river spreads, and kill the chicken to scare the monkeys.

    Shekui Khan led the main force of the Western Turks to come in a fierce manner. He was planning to fight Ashina Kuzhi under the stone city.  Unexpectedly, Ashina Simita knew that his strength was inferior to Shekui Khan, so he advised his brother not to fight Shekui Khan, but to move south and use the vast terrain in the river to contain Shekui Khan.

    Shekui Khan came from afar and fought quickly. After all, Shekui Khan did not have the upper hand in terms of geographical location or logistical supplies. Once the two sides fell into a stalemate, it would be detrimental to Shekui Khan.

    Ashina had great trust in his younger brother, so he followed his brother's advice to evacuate Shiguo, crossed the Yaoxishui River, and headed to Suduishana (today's Ushurushana, Tajikistan).  Su Duishana was the capital of the Dawan Kingdom in the Han Dynasty, Guishan City, and is now the seat of the Dongcao Kingdom.

    Shekui Khan was like a giant who was preparing a punch, but it hit cotton. After the heavy blow, he only got an empty stone city. Not to mention how depressing it was.  But Ashina fled far away, so he had to pursue him.

    Ashina Simido is one of the rare talents among the Western Turks. Although he is young, he is resourceful, wise and courageous.  He first summoned the Western Turkic tribes in the river from Kang State (today's Samarkand), and then mobilized the troops of the Nine Kingdoms of Zhaowu to form a coalition to fight against Shegui Khan.

    In October of the same year, the coalition forces and the main force of Shekui Khan met in Juzhanti (near present-day Leninabad Oblast, Tajikistan).  The two sides launched a fierce decisive battle.

    At the beginning, because the coalition's combat effectiveness was inferior to that of Shekui Khan's army, the left wing troops quickly collapsed and were almost completely annihilated.  Shegui Khan took the opportunity to personally lead a roundabout force to attack the rear of the coalition forces.

    At this time, the coalition forces were in chaos, and all the ministries were afraid. The coalition forces were in danger of being surrounded.  Ashinasimido made a decisive decision and immediately put the reserve team at the rear of the central army into battle, and led his army to storm the rear army of Shekui Khan.

    Both sides, Tian Ji, used their elites to attack each other's weak forces.  Ashina Kuzhi led the troops to block Shekui Khan's roundabout attack, and Ashina Simedo defeated Shekui Khan's rear army.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Of two brothers of Ashina, the younger brother has more outstanding talents, and is full of imagination, and uses strange tactics.  Although the elder brother Ashina Kuzhi does not have the outstanding talents of his younger brother, he is gentle and upright. He is known to be prestigious in the tribe and is good at winning people's hearts. Therefore, the two brothers always cooperate with each other to achieve success.

    The two sides continued to stalemate for three days, with fierce fighting continuing.

    At this critical moment, Shekui Khan was hit by an arrow and could not mount his horse.  After hearing this, Ashina Simita took the opportunity to send people to spread the news on the battlefield that Shekui Khan had died.  The Shekui army did not distinguish between true and false, and their morale suddenly dropped.

    But Ashina Simita led his army to attack fiercely, defeated the Shekui army, and beheaded more than 10,000 people.  Shekui Khan fled in panic.

    After this battle, the morale of the coalition forces rose sharply, and the situation of Shekui Khan became even more unfavorable.  Seeing that winter was coming and logistics was not smooth, Shekui Khan's subordinates persuaded him to retreat. Shekui Khan was worried about the war, but he was powerless, so he had to lead his army back to the capital of Shiguo for repairs.Waiting to fight again.

    As both sides spent the winter, the situation in the river worsened.

    At the beginning of the second year, Khan Shekui decided to take a dangerous approach. He did not wait for the land to thaw and the cold to pass, and then took advantage of the unpreparedness of the coalition forces to suddenly cross the river and attack Kang State directly.

    At this time, the entire grassland was frozen, and the chill was overwhelming. Many people in the army of Shekui Khan died of freezing along the march.

    Shekui Khan made a surprise attack on Kang State and miraculously entered the hinterland of the river.  Most of the entire Nine Kingdoms of Zhaowu were concentrated along the Nami River (today's Zezerafshan River in Central Asia) and the Dumo River (today's Sahlisabz and Karshi areas in Uzbekistan).

    So all the countries were shocked and asked Su Duishana for help.

    Ashina had to send his younger brother Ashina Simita to lead an army to rescue Kang State.

    Shekui Khan marched straight in and occupied Kang State before reinforcements arrived.  He threatened the countries under the guise of conquering them, but took the opportunity to set up an ambush on the west bank of the dense water.

    Ashina Simita advanced all the way, unprepared, and was finally ambushed by Shekui Khan. His army was severely defeated, and almost the entire army was wiped out. He only escaped with his body and fled back to Suduishana in embarrassment.

    At this point, Shekui Khan reversed the disadvantageous advantage in the early stages of the war and began to take control of the war situation.

    The Shekui Army continued to move east, and a fierce battle broke out between the two sides in Su Dui Shana.

    This time, Ashina Simita failed to organize a coalition in time, so the forces in the river were scattered and they were no match for Shekui Khan.

    Ashina Simita was defeated again, and Shekui Khan occupied Suduishana.

    After this battle, the Ashina brothers only had two or three thousand men in their hands and were unable to turn defeat into victory.  Ashina Simita then advised his brother to flee south to Tochara to accumulate strength, and Ashina prostrated himself to follow him.

    Shekui Khan could not catch up, so he went west to conquer the rebel tribes in the river.  A group of Western Turkic nobles who participated in the rebellion in the countries in the river were not as lucky as Ashina's brothers, and they were all killed by Khan Shekui, so the rebellion of all the tribes in the river was suppressed.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
