Chapter 665 The Horn of the Final Battle (1)

In the twelfth lunar month, the residents in the city were preparing for the arrival of the New Year after a disturbing year. At this time, the court and the country were basically calmed down, and a cry for a change of the country was still getting stronger and stronger like the west wind in winter.

Seeing that Qichang's reign was about to come to an end, even Liu Yu felt that it was time to change it. The people from the Ministry of Rites held a meeting twice, but no results were achieved. At this time, the team of Turkic envoys was about to arrive in Chang'an City. When the court was about to go out to welcome him, Liu Yu had to put this matter on hold for the time being. Liu Yu had no intention of leaving Su Yan to celebrate the New Year in Chang'an City. Su Yan seemed very eager to go to the local area earlier and wrote a "reporter of criminals", which made Liu Yu feel that Su Yan was eager to go to the place. Finally, Liu Yu planned to send someone to see Su Yan leave on the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, and the envoy escorted was Chai Jin, the Marquis of Linqing who had just gone to welcome the Turkic envoy this time.

Liu Yu felt that Su Yan still had something to hide, otherwise this ignorant person would not have written any "Criminal Ministers". After reading it, Liu Yu felt that Su Yan was a great writer, and he told the court that he did not have the determination to resist the court. The more beautiful the words were, the more inappropriate it made Liu Yu feel.

If it is not appropriate, Liu Yu couldn't take any action and ruthlessly attacked Su Yan and added a killer. Su Yan seemed to realize that staying in Chang'an City would only make Liu Yu change his mind at any time, so he was so eager to leave Chang'an, even if there were some beautiful memories left here, even if there were too many unknown dangers on the road to the vassal state.

On the seventh day of the twelfth lunar month, the court welcomed the arrival of the Turkic envoys outside the east gate of Chang'an City. This was a special day for the residents of Chang'an City. After a tragic year and after the pain of losing their family, the court ushered in a long face. The Turks who used to fight against the Dashun Dynasty came to Chang'an City like their people, and brought a large number of cattle and sheep as tributes. This was a good time to "grow your face" when you were hungry and face the cold wind.

Honors were shared. Even though there were still many people in the Dashun Dynasty who were still suffering after the disaster. They still came out with the cold wind and experienced this "glory moment" with all the civil and military officials of the court. In the end, Liu Yu felt embarrassed and wanted to express his wishes to ordinary people. So he ordered that after welcoming the envoys, some new porridge shops for disaster relief were added in Chang'an City. It should be to comfort ordinary people.

For the residents of Chang'an City, drinking a sip of porridge in the cold winter is a gift from God. As for higher things, they dare not ask for extravagance. People are like this, just running around for basic livelihoods. As for what "unequivocal thoughts" they will not demand.

Outside the east gate of Chang'an City, tens of thousands of residents of Chang'an City gathered, with civil and military officials waiting outside, while the new emperor sat behind the imperial carriage waiting. It was not until the afternoon of that day that the Turkic envoys team came late, and Liu Yu waited outside for a short while, feeling a little impatient. This was obviously an unqualified welcome event. Chai Jin said that the Turkic envoys would arrive in the morning, but until half the afternoon, the Turkic envoys arrived in Chang'an City, which only made Liu Yu wait for a lot of bad luck.

The welcome event went smoothly. The Turkic envoys were very "aware of the matter". In front of the civil and military officials of Shun Dynasty and tens of thousands of people in the Dashun Dynasty, they presented letters of state to the Shun Dynasty emperor, and even knelt down and bowed. Finally, the new emperor read out some "edicts" for surrendering to the Turks in public, and finally named Dardo Khan the Supreme Khan, meaning. Even if you are "Tian Khan", you are still under the Shun Dynasty emperor.

During the welcoming ceremony, Liu Yu met his old friend again, the little beggar Timur who had been with him day and night in the Western Regions. After a year, Timur grew up a lot. As the prince of the Turkic, the heir of the future Turkic Tiankhan, and the prince who is most likely to become the Nu Tiankhan since the establishment of the tribe. Timur seemed to have been ready to inherit her father's Khan. This time Timur came with an envoy team, as if he had already had the style of the Khan that day. The entire Turkic envoy team seemed well organized under her leadership. Liu Yu also knew that the Turkic people, who are now suffering from disasters, have to work together to face internal and external difficulties. The more they are on the major issues that concern the future rise and fall of the race, the more they are together.

After a crushing defeat against the Shun Dynasty, the Turks were no longer enough to intimidate the entire grassland. Whether it was some of the old Turkic tribes or the emerging Turkic nobles, they all knew that if they were not united, they would be replaced by other tribes and the grassland would change their ownership.

The welcoming ceremony ended in the afternoon. Liu Yu asked the Turkic envoy to temporarily go to the National Inn to rest. As for the cattle and sheep that paid tribute, Liu Yu did not let them enter Chang'an City. The main Chang'an City was not a place for grassland grazing. The feed problem of so many livestock was a big problem. Liu Yu asked the people from the Ministry of Revenue to find a few larger places outside the city as temporary "racelands" and resettle these livestock. Liu Yu felt it was very troublesome to these tributes. Finally, he thought about it and would rather kill the people in Chang'an City to eat meat, as it was the New Year.

So on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, the second day after the Turkic envoy arrived in Chang'an City, the court announced the quotation, indicating the court's determination to "joy with the people". It was planned to start slaughtering the cattle and sheep from Turks around the 15th lunar month, and distributed beef and mutton in some places in the city, and residents in the city could collect it according to households. As for cowhide and sheep skin, Liu Yu also thought about it and prepared to give it to the residents in the city. Anyway, it was because of the generous gifts of others, and Liu Yu did not feel distressed. In these days, meat is a precious food that ordinary people cannot enjoy all year round, especially beef and mutton.

The people naturally support the court to enjoy the people, but the officials said a lot. This was the first time in the history of the Dashun Dynasty. However, just like the Turks were the first to pay tribute to the Shun Dynasty in history, Liu Yu always puts forward any objection. These officials raised some oppositions, but in the end they were not settled. Liu Yu's decision was difficult to change, especially the "wise" decision that the people supported.

On the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, the court held a simple banquet at Fengcui Palace to invite representatives of the Turkic envoy team, Timur and some tribes' small leaders, on the one hand, gave them the opportunity to get close to the emperor of the Celestial Kingdom, and on the other hand, it also demonstrated the Shun Dynasty's "benevolence" towards the vassal states. The reception banquet was hosted by Chai Jin, and Liu Yu and Qier were both present. The banquet was held very smoothly. Although at the banquet, it was just a one-man show by the Shun Dynasty, which was a performance, and officials made things difficult for the Turkic envoys, etc., but an envoy of the Turkic suddenly said, "I heard that Chang'an City in your country is not peaceful", which made the atmosphere of the entire banquet very awkward.

Many self-righteous Shunchao officials also blushed after hearing this, because a lot of things have indeed happened in Chang'an City recently.

The banquet ended in a not-so-friendly atmosphere. Liu Yu didn't care much about what happened at the banquet. Originally, Shunchao officials criticized the Turkic envoys and were not included in his plan, but these officials seemed to like to show the superiority of the Supreme People's Kingdom. They were anxious about others and were "humiliated" by others.

After Liu Yu returned to the inner court, he thought about what happened at the banquet and always felt that the Three Pure Cults should do something to destroy the relationship between Shunchao and the Turks. Although the action to eliminate the Three Pure Cults has come to an end for the time being, some of the chief culprits are still on the run, Liu Yu also knew that it would be a big deal to drag on this, so it would be better to "lead the snake out of the hole."

Liu Yu called some of his direct descendants into the palace, including Li Mi, Wang Hu and Qu Zhu. Liu Yu didn't look for Huo Bing, who was stupid. This time he asked these three people to go to the palace to discuss the plan to lure the snake out of the cave.

Since the Three Pure Ones who are openly cleared out are almost the same, they should relax the martial law situation in Chang'an City, so that the lives of the people in the city will become stable. On the basis of qualification, relax the guards of some places and give the people of the Three Pure Ones. The places where the relaxed guards are first of all, the National Inn by the Turkic envoys are staying. Liu Yu thinks this should be the place where the Three Pure Ones want to launch an attack and are most concerned about.

After the plan to lead the snake out of the hole was arranged, Liu Yu found some military generals to the palace and discussed the simultaneous development of the Three Pure Land Cult operations outside Chang'an City. Liu Yu was preparing to make Chang'an City a transformation from tight inside and loose outside to tight inside and tight outside, expand the army's search from the inside to outside the city, and use Chang'an City as the radiation and the surrounding cities within 200 to 300 miles as the border, and start a new scrutiny operation.

Liu Yu only relied on the previous month to clean up the forces of the Three Puritans in Chang'an City, and only made simple quellations for various places in Guanzhong. In fact, the purges carried out by many places did not meet Liu Yu's requirements. Liu Yu wanted to take the opportunity to start the battle for the purge of the outside of Chang'an City, while making the remnants of the Three Puritans hidden in Chang'an City think that the court turned their attention from the inside to the outside, so that they could show up and annihilate them in one fell swoop.

After Liu Yu arranged the military's deployment, a new eradication operation was in full swing. At this time, the two major events that the court had to face were: one was the further eradication of the Three Puritans and the other was the arrival of the Turkic envoys. Liu Yu calculated that he could still hit the energy of the Three Puritans and the other, and that he would not care too much about the Turkic side.

After the banquet he welcomed, Liu Yu showed indifferent to the Turkic envoys team. It seemed to be a "disrespectful" fight against the Turkic envoys, but in fact it was also a pressure on the Turkic envoys. Liu Yu had received a letter of nationality sent by Timur to the palace and borrowed troops from the Dashun Dynasty. Liu Yu wanted to use this attitude to show that the soldiers would never be borrowed, and it would be useless for you to come.
