    Cui Renshu successfully completed his mission to the Western Turks and decided to return to the Central Plains.

    A group of people analyzed Luo Man Mountain and headed southeast, passing Yiwu Country along the way.  Because the Sui Dynasty's first stop when entering the Western Regions was Yiwu State, Cui Renshu did not want to antagonize the other party, so he walked along the border and did not want to enter Yiwu territory.

    After everyone walked southeast for a while, the Yiwu army came up from behind and stopped Cui Renshu's team.

    The other party said that he came to greet the Great Sui Angel on the order of Shi Gao, the king of Yiwu.  The other party had a large number of people, and Cui Renshu did not want to cause more trouble, so he chose to follow the other party back to Yiwu City.

    Today¡¯s Yiwu State was not established by the local indigenous people, but by the Shiguo people from the Hezhong area with the nine surnames of Zhaowu.

    It is said that the Kangju people used to live in Zhaowu City in the north of the Qilian Mountains, which was destroyed by the Xiongnu. They crossed the Congling Mountains to the Lianghe River Basin in the west. Their descendants multiplied and were divided into nine kingdoms, collectively known as the Zhaowu Nine Surnames, and the Shi Kingdom was one of the big kingdoms.

    A group of people from the Shi Kingdom marched eastward, destroyed the original Yiwu Kingdom, and established a new Yiwu Kingdom on Yiwu's land.

    Shi Gao knew that he was located on the main road between the Western Regions and the Sui Dynasty, so he paid great attention to the Sui people coming and going.  He knew that the Sui Dynasty was getting stronger and stronger, and he also knew some things about the Central Plains dynasty's management of the Western Regions. Therefore, he knew that if the Sui Dynasty wanted to return to the Western Regions, Yiwu would be the first to bear the brunt.

    This time Shi Gao discovered Cui Renshu's team and was extremely surprised. There were people who appeared in the Western Regions during the Sui Dynasty, which showed that the time for the Sui people to return to the Western Regions was not far away.

    If the Central Plains dynasty manages the Western Region, most of them will control it. However, Yiwu's geographical location is critical, and the Sui Dynasty will definitely seek to control Yiwu. This is beyond doubt.  King Shi Gao is sitting quietly. On the Silk Road, a treasure land of feng shui, he has made a lot of money just by collecting tolls. Of course, he is not willing to give up the treasure land of Yiwu.

    So after discovering the Sui envoys, Shi Gao immediately ordered these people to be controlled and brought back to the capital. He had not yet figured out how to deal with them.

    After Cui Renshu and others were brought to Yiwu, the Prime Minister of Yiwu and others received them, but Shi Gao himself never showed up.  Cui Renshu wanted to leave, but was dissuaded by Yiwu several times.  Cui Renshu understood that they were under house arrest by the other party.

    As a small country, Yiwu is located on a major transportation road, so it is inevitable that pro-Turkic factions and pro-Han factions will appear.  Shi Gao himself has always had an unclear attitude, hoping to maintain his independent status by playing both sides.

    This time when the Sui envoy entered Yiwu City, Shi Gao's attitude was unclear, which naturally made people think that Shi Gao chose the Sui Dynasty.  Therefore, the pro-Han faction in the country was encouraged, while the pro-Turkic faction was extremely nervous.

    Political struggle is a matter of life and death. Once the pro-Han faction gains power, they will not end well in the end.  At this time, Shi Shougui, the leader of the pro-Turkic faction, decided not to do anything but to kill all the Sui envoys. When the time comes, Shi Gao will be unable to get off the tiger and will definitely defect to the other side.  As for the revenge of the Sui Dynasty, they were not worried. The sky was high and the emperor was far away. As long as they killed all these Han people, who would know that they could do it.  As for Shi Gao, I'm afraid he will try his best to cover it up.

    When Shi Shou returned, he mobilized heavy troops and prepared to attack and kill the Sui envoys.

    Cui Renshu was imprisoned for several days, and he could only wonder what the other party wanted to do.  At this time, Huang Mingcheng was worried that the other party would be disadvantageous to them, so he persuaded Cui Renshu to leave Yiwu.

    Even though they were in the city, they couldn't escape.

    Huang Mingcheng bribed the guards in the city and asked them to report the situation to them.  And Huang Mingcheng also laid an ambush in the post house where he settled.

    On this day, Shi Shougui wanted to raid the Sui Dynasty envoys, but he was soon discovered by Huang Mingcheng, who was stationed around the post house. He set up an ambush in advance. When Shi Shougui's troops suddenly broke into the post house, Huang Mingcheng and his troops were already ready.  There was a hail of arrows from the troops, catching the opponent by surprise.  Before Shi Shougui could react, everyone in the Sui army rode their horses and rushed towards the city gate.

    Huang Mingcheng had rehearsed the escape route countless times, so everyone rushed out of the post house and killed all those who blocked the route.

    When everyone ran to the city gate, the gatekeepers did not know the situation and were about to step forward to ask questions, but they were directly trampled over by Sui Qi.

    Huang Mingcheng took the lead, rushed to the door, and ordered people to open the city gate.  There are two city gates in Yiwu Kingdom. Outside is the suspension bridge connecting the moat, connected by an iron chain.

    For a moment, everyone could not pull the iron chain open, so Huang Mingcheng took out the sword from his waist and slashed at the iron chain dozens of times. With a "boom", the suspension bridge fell to the ground.

    This sword was given to Huang Mingcheng by Huang Mingyuan. It was made by Qi Gongye and made of refined iron. It is extremely sharp.?.  This time, in order to cut off the iron chain, he actually curled the blade.  Huang Mingcheng secretly cried out that it was a pity, but he ignored the sword and rushed out of the city with his troops.

    At this time, Yiwu City was in chaos, and the news finally reached King Shi Gao.

    Shi Gao was shocked after hearing this and wanted to kill Shi Shougui. This Sui man could be provoked at will.

    At this time, the Prime Minister Shi Bailong next to Shi Gao advised Shi Gao: "If it hadn't happened today, your Majesty would have chosen to befriend the Sui Dynasty. But today the Sui envoy was raided, and whether he was alive or dead, he must have thought that what happened today was the fault of your Majesty."  Because, I am afraid that I will hate the king deeply. Once these Sui envoys are allowed to escape to the Great Sui Dynasty, the Sui people will inevitably retaliate. The Sui army is strong and our army will be difficult to defeat, and the country of Yiwu will suffer disaster. For now  The only way to escape this is to kill all these Sui envoys and cover up their traces so that there is no evidence to prove their deaths."

    Shi Gao¡¯s expression changed several times after hearing this, and he finally felt helpless.

    Shi Gao is no longer a child, and he knows that Shi Bailong's words may come true.  The Sui envoy was attacked and fled far away. Even if he went to explain in person, the other party might not believe him. Once the Sui people's revenge started, they would not be able to bear it.

    Shi Gao held Shi Bailong's hand and said: "Old Prime Minister, you personally lead people to hunt down the Sui envoys. You must kill them all without leaving any future troubles."

    "Don't worry, Your Majesty. The Sui people will be unprepared when they break out of the encirclement. My old ministers must keep the Sui envoys in Yiwu."

    Shi Bailong led his men in pursuit all the way to the southeast, but the Sui army was discovered by the opponent several times due to unfamiliar roads. After several bloody battles, they were lucky enough to break out of the opponent's encirclement.

    Shi Bailong underestimated the preparations of the Sui army. Since he discovered that the Yiwu people might be disadvantageous to them, Huang Mingcheng prepared sufficient food, grass and horses in advance to prepare for the escape.

    Huang Mingcheng was best at guerrilla warfare in the grasslands before. He defeated many with fewer people several times, and he also experienced being chased by barbarians.  Therefore, although Shi Bailong mobilized the power of the whole country to hunt them down, Huang Mingcheng miraculously broke out with his troops.

    More than ten days later, Huang Mingcheng and Cui Renshu entered Yumen Pass, and out of the 200-person envoy team, only thirteen people remained.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
