Chapter 689 Khitan and Xianbei

Temujin couldn't help feeling sorry: "That person should be an important figure under Alexander's command, otherwise he is not qualified to lead Alexander's partner cavalry and is preparing to withdraw."

When Temujin came to investigate, there were only a hundred cowardly Xue Jun around him.

The number of veterans who are afraid of Xue's army is getting smaller and smaller as they fight.

Alexander's courage was as great as Temujin's. He only brought a few hundred cavalry companions and came straight to rescue Hephaistion without hesitation.

The two conquerors met on the outskirts of Venus. Alexander reined in his horse and confronted Temujin.

Temujin seemed a little old, while Alexander was still very young.

"Khan, maybe I can go and shoot him."

The god arrow Jebe volunteered to shoot and kill their king Alexander in front of his fellow cavalry.

"No, his force should not be low."

Temujin vaguely sensed that Alexander dared to attack with a small number of cavalry, so he must have a certain ability to protect himself.

If Jebe went to battle, with Alexander's several hundred cavalry companions, Jebe might be captured.

"Did you kill Hephaistion?"

Alexander was within a stone's throw of Temujin, and he was confident that Temujin would not be able to shoot him.

"The cavalry commander is not dead yet, if he hadn't run fast, he would have been beheaded by me."

Temujin didn't hide it when he saw Alexander's initiative to ask, then waved his hand and led the cavalry away.

A cavalry general asked Alexander: "King, are we going to hunt down Temujin? He only has hundreds of cavalry, and we have hundreds of people."

"No, chasing Temujin will only be fooled. His cavalry is above mine."

Alexander gave up chasing Temujin because he knew he couldn't catch up. The Hungarian Empire behind claimed that millions of troops were sweeping towards Vienna. Alexander and others were still gathering their troops to join Vienna, so they were not confident yet. Decisive battle with Temujin and Attila.

"Hephaistion, you're fine."

Alexander found Hephaestion, the captain of the companion cavalry, who was hunted down by Temujin.

Hephaistion was a little ashamed: "I failed the king's trust."

"Not many people have more powerful cavalry than Temujin. Let's go back to the camp and find someone else to investigate."

In order to prevent Hephaestion from being in danger again, Alexander replaced Hephaistion with another general to be in charge of the investigation.

"The king, Pompey, the magnate of Rome, has engaged the host of the enemy!"

On the way back to camp, Alexander and Hephaistion, the Roman Legion fought against the Nordic Lion Gustav Legion!

"Pompeo should wait for us!"

When Constantine and Caesar learned that Pompey, who was also one of the Big Three, was fighting against Gustav, they couldn't help changing their colors.

Two Roman commanders immediately led to meet Pompey.

Although Pompey's Roman Legion was enough to challenge Caesar, what Gustav owned was not ordinary arms, but a firearms arm that appeared much later than the Roman Legion!

To the west of the Horqin Grassland, the remnants of the Khitan tribe recuperate here. The Liaodong Army's attack on the Khitan tribe led to the decline of the Khitan tribe.

The remaining Yelu Xiuge, Yelu Xiezhen, Xiao Siwen and others lost their leader Yelu Abaoji, and the dragons have no leader. There is no one who can replace Yelu Abaoji. Instead, the few surviving generals jointly decide whether the Khitan tribe will stay or not.

The current Khitan tribe no longer dares to call itself the Liao Kingdom, at most it is at the level of a tribe.

"There are still three roads ahead of us. First, we, like other tribes, graze on this grassland and continue to recuperate. Maybe in a hundred or two hundred years, our Khitan tribe will become a powerful kingdom again, but the bigger It may be that our descendants will be defeated by other tribes and become captives of other tribes."

"Secondly,

We gradually annexed the surrounding tribes and established kingdoms again. But we lack a powerful figure to command us to rebuild a kingdom, and once we become bigger again, the Liaodong Army may make a comeback and wipe us out completely. Even King Xia of the Han Empire would not allow a kingdom to be established within his sphere of influence. "

"Thirdly, we are looking for a powerful force. As a vassal, we can obtain asylum, and you can also obtain high-ranking officials and generous salaries. The price we pay is corvee, and may be used as cannon fodder."

The surviving Khitan generals gathered around the fire to discuss the fate of the Khitan tribe in the future.

The Liao Kingdom is gone, and they must discuss whether to stay or not.

In the current Khitan tribe, there are only more than 100,000 people who have fled from various places.

In the civilized area of ​​the Han Empire, there are quite a few tribes with a population of 100,000, so the Khitan tribe has no advantage over other tribes. However, most of the surviving Khitan tribes are veterans, and there are a few generals who can stand on their own. If they really want to conquer other tribes around them, then they may do it, and they may even consider re-establishing the Liao Kingdom.

It's a pity that without Yelu Abaoji, they lack a powerful leader-level figure.

In addition to Yelu Abaoji, Xiao Chuo was also capable of serving as the leader of the Khitan tribe, but she fell into the hands of Chutian, unable to lead the Khitan tribe to glory again.

"Helan Mountain, the Tuoba Xianbei tribe sent people here!"

While the remaining generals of the Khitan tribe were discussing the future of the Khitan tribe, Tuoba Tao, who was recuperating in Helan Mountain, took the initiative to send someone to contact the Khitan tribe.

Tuoba Tao valued two generals, Yeluxiu and Yelu Xiezhen, as well as tens of thousands of elite Khitan soldiers.

"We, Lord Tuoba, are willing to accomplish a great cause together with you. If you can become king in the future, then you will surely seal ten thousand households and reward tens of thousands of servants."

Cui Hao, the military advisor of Tuoba Xianbei, volunteered to lobby the Xianbei tribe.

Compared to Tuoba Tao, the leader of the Tuoba Xianbei tribe, Cui Hao is equivalent to Xun Yu to Cao Cao.

Yeluxiu and Yelu Xiezhen, the two Khitan pillars, looked at each other, and then said to Cui Hao: "We have already understood the reason for your visit, and we will consider Master Tuoba Xianbei's proposal."

"Everyone should think about it carefully. With the identities of the old cities of the Liao Kingdom, no matter whether King Xia or King Ming, they may not treat you kindly in the future. Our adults are not like this. We are willing to share the world with you in the future, and even be named three Liao kings."

Cui Hao's proposal to be king made these Khitan generals feel a little moved.

He had already seen that Yeluxiu, Yelu Xiezhen and Xiao Siwen were mainly in charge of the major events of the remaining Khitan tribe remnants, so he made his own claim and promised the three of them the title of king.

Xiao Siwen is hesitating. His daughter is with King Xia. If possible, Xiao Siwen is more inclined to consider joining King Xia.
