Li Jing's voice fell lightly, but it fell like a thunderbolt in Shuli Duo's ears. She raised her eyebrows, waved her hand fiercely, and said through gritted teeth: "The emperor's appetite is too big!" Li Jing leaned forward, her eyes like torches.
"The queen may not understand yet. Do you have any choice in the current situation? Or, what qualifications do you Mobei have to bargain with me?"
"You!" Shuliduo clenched his palms to form a fist that could not be punched out. Li Jing straightened up, opened his arms, and raised his chin.
"The queen seems to have misunderstood - I am here today to give you a chance, not to listen to the queen's negotiation of terms." As he said that, he looked at Shuliduo's cheek wantonly and said, "The queen is waiting for you now. It’s hard to be in court, isn’t it?” The latter snorted coldly, with a ray of gloom flashing across his expression.
But she just adjusted her expression and said in a deep voice: "Is the emperor too confident... I have already shown my sincerity, but your country still insists on being aggressive. Are you really not afraid of Mobei going up and down to fight to the death?"
"Oh?" Li Jing showed a doubtful expression: "The queen is talking about... a dog jumping over the wall in a hurry?" This evil thief!
Shuliduo cursed secretly, but saw Li Jing raise his chin slightly, and said scornfully: "In the past, you and the Jin thieves could not succeed in conspiring with each other. Now that you are alone, do I really care? You people from the grassland—— "His eyes flashed and he smiled coldly.
"Even if there are millions of troops, what is there to fear?" Queen Mobei's pretty face was as cold as frost. After hearing what he said, she just smiled coldly: "So..." But her voice immediately changed. Interrupted by Li Jing.
"Queen, I came today just for the sake of the thousands of people on the grassland. Do you really think that the sword in my hand is harmful to me with my words? More than tens of millions of people in the Central Plains died at your hands due to the killings you committed when you went south! If the queen really wants to use all the strength of the Mobei clan to block the chariot, I don’t mind letting you, like the Huns and the Turks, disappear into the dust and wasteland of history!” After saying this, he turned his horse’s head and faced Go in the direction you came from.
When he left, Yuan Tiangang seemed to chuckle, but Shuliduo, who didn't even notice the change in his expression, returned with Li Jing.
Behind them, Shuliduo stared at Li Jing's retreating back, his face changing colors of green and white.
"Queen, should we..." Seri Qixiang, who was behind, rode over. Seeing that the strong soldier with the flag was about to mount his horse, he couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
The nearly a thousand knights behind seemed to be unable to hold back at this time, and there was some restless noise as they wanted to rush over.
If possible, Shuliduo really wanted to kill the Emperor of the Central Plains with one knife! But she just glanced at Yuan Tiangang's back with fear, as if he was on an outing, and shook her head.
"That's all..." She sighed in frustration, took a deep look at Li Jing's tall figure getting further and further away, and turned the horse's head.
Shi Qi Xiang smacked her lips regretfully and prepared to accompany the queen to leave. But at the same time, the thunderous sound of horse hooves suddenly came from behind them.
The originally restless Mobei Cavalry Formation suddenly heard a low roar. Shuriduo felt a layer of chills rise on his back, and suddenly turned his head to look.
At the intersection of heaven and earth, where there was originally only the sky and the snow, the white space was gradually swept by a black wave.
Flags fluttering in the wind stand among the torrent like cavalry. They were dressed in black and armored, standing quietly on the snow, as if they were trying to absorb the rays of the sun. The darkness was so frightening, and so many so terrifying.
In sight, in the hands of these soldiers who came on horseback was a long pole pointing upwards to the sky.
All Mobei people know what those things are. An inexplicable fear arose in Shuliduo's heart.
At this time, a black wave was seen slowly moving forward, welcoming their emperor into the formation.
"Queen!" Shi Qixiang also protected Shuli Duo as if facing a formidable enemy. The Mobei cavalry formation, which was a little commotion behind, also rushed towards them and protected their queen.
But the next moment, the Tang army that was slowly advancing toward them suddenly stopped. Shuliduo held the reins tightly, her pretty face tensed.
Immediately, she saw a scene that she would never forget. Thousands of Tang troops armed with muskets suddenly pointed their muzzles at a forty-five-degree angle into the sky, and then, after a brief preparation, suddenly fired out in unison.
"Bang..." The astonishing degree of unity made the gunshots seem to only sound once. But the deafening sound and the countless fires soaring into the sky made all the people in Mobei turn pale.
"Tap tap tap..." A horseman rode out from the Tang army's formation. he shouted at the top of his lungs.
"The Emperor has something to say——"
"The song has been played, waiting for the queen to dance!" After saying this, he returned to the formation. The next moment, the torrent of steel retreated orderly from the sight of the Mobei people.
Only the Mobei generals who were still frightened and Shuli Duo who turned pale were left behind. The roaring gunshots just now seemed to still be echoing in her ears.
"Queen..." Shi Qixiang looked complicated. Shuliduo was in a state of despair and whispered as if he had lost his mind.
"Go back and summon all the ministers...send King Dandong to envoy to the Tang Dynasty and present a letter of state to ask for surrender."————————
"Your Majesty is still too merciful." On the way back, Yuan Tiangang accompanied Li Jing and shook his head: "Barbarians are barbarians. To deal with them, we must eliminate evil."
"But what happens after the killing?" Li Jing spread out a hand and whispered. Yuan Tiangang pondered and said: "Your Majesty wants to lay the foundation for eternity in one fell swoop, and it is inseparable from the word 'kill'. If your Majesty is annoyed, you can leave it to me." Li Jing laughed: "I don't want to be killed for eternity. I just want the two races to live in peace for a hundred years and uphold the one-China principle."
"One China principle..." Yuan Tiangang was stunned for a moment, narrowed his eyes, and savored these words carefully.
"By the way, Marshal, why don't you make a bet with me?" At this time, Li Jing turned around with a smile, interrupting his thinking.
"What kind of gamble does Your Majesty want to make?"
"Just a bet to see if Queen Yingtian is willing to accept my treaty." Yuan Tiangang smiled faintly and looked at Li Jing, who was already a head taller than him.
"Although Queen Yingtian is ambitious, she is bound by the current situation. I'm afraid there is only one way to go." Li Jing was still very interested and said with a smile: "Now that the commander-in-chief has figured it out, it is no longer interesting." Yuan Tiangang He raised his head, looked at the distant sky, and sighed melancholy.
"When did I get it right..." Li Jing laughed, but reined in his horse and slowed down.
"Commander, why don't you think about how well I can govern this world."
"I have already..." Yuan Tiangang raised the corners of his mouth behind the mask, and was about to speak out when his shoulder was suddenly tapped by Li Jing.
"That's all, it's pointless to say it - let's go and witness it together." The Marshal paused.
Then, the king and his ministers looked at each other and smiled.
