Tang Jian smiled slightly.
"Compared to war, this is mild."
He said calmly,
"Khan, maybe you can think about it. If you don't choose to cede territory and pay compensation now, there will be no discussion when the iron hooves of my army arrive."
"Although I am the envoy of the Tang Dynasty, I cannot control those arrogant and powerful generals. At that time, the situation will be out of control. Even if you want to negotiate terms, it will be difficult."
Jieli Khan took a sip of wine a little irritably.
"Tang Honglu."
He forced out a smile and said sincerely,
"Look, I was driven out by your Tang army. I just took a breath in Iron Mountain and reunited my tribe."
"Over there in Dingxiang, you have harvested enough spoils. Why do you need to force me anymore?"
"We hit it off right away, and I would like to make Tang Honglu a friend! Here, as long as it is something you like, I will give it to you with just a word! I just ask Tang Honglu to be noble and be a little more relaxed in terms of terms..."
"Otherwise, I won't be able to explain to my tribe!"
His prestige in the clan has been hit one after another. If he cedes territory again and pays compensation, I am afraid that the Khan's position will not be preserved!
The Turks are extremely strong-willed, and they will not allow a loser to become a wolf!
"hehe……"
Tang Jian twirled his beard and said helplessly,
"Tang Jian accepts the Khan's kindness, but this is a major matter between countries and cannot be careless."
"As you said, you have to explain to your tribe, and I have to explain to Your Majesty! If it harms the interests of the country, Your Majesty will definitely chop off my head when he goes back! By then, even if there are countless gold and silver There is no blessing to enjoy the treasure!”
Jieli Khan's face darkened.
This damn fat man can’t get enough oil and salt!
Those ten beauties were just wasted?
Just when his face was gloomy and full of displeasure, Tang Jian suddenly stood up.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry...I drank too much tea."
He said happily,
"Khan, let me relieve myself first."
Jieli let out a dull sigh and took another sip of wine.
"Father Khan, this envoy from the Tang Dynasty is so shameless! After receiving your reward, he still treats you like this!"
Yu Gushe beside him looked unhappy and continued,
"If you ask me, all the rewards given to him should be withdrawn! Those ten beauties were all carefully selected from various ethnic groups and finely trained. Even my father has not enjoyed them! He is just a mere messenger. Where do you get the qualifications from?”
He is also greedy for those elastic thighs!
"snort!"
Jieli snorted coldly,
"What do you know! Yu Gushe, you have to see the current situation clearly! Behind him are one hundred thousand Tang troops!"
"Nowadays, we must not break up with him. The peace talks must continue. Even if we keep arguing, we must continue to fight to buy us time!"
"As long as Tang Jian is still negotiating here, the Tang army will not move, and we will have a chance to breathe. Whether it is gathering the tribes or waiting for the spring, one more day will restore our strength."
"When necessary, Father Khan can even pretend to agree and give up some of his interests to paralyze Li Shimin and let him withdraw his troops. As long as Father Khan is still in the Turks, he will definitely be able to make a comeback! By then, whether it is territory or interests, You can take it back again!"
Yugushe was shocked.
"My father is far-sighted and my son admires me!"
He hurriedly worshiped,
"As long as Father Khan is still there, we can win!"
Jieli Khan nodded slightly.
"The lion opens its mouth?"
He looked at Tang Jian's position and sneered,
"Then I'll keep playing tricks with you. The longer I go on, the more sincere I become."
"Is not it?"
The abacus in Jie Li's mind was ringing loudly, and Tang Jian's hissing outside at the stables was also loud and clear.
There was a ruckus.
The urine was steaming with heat. Under the erosion of the wind and snow, it completely lost its temperature before it fell to the ground. When it fell into the snow, it had turned into a line of yellow-brown ice.
"Hiss—it's so damn cold! This is really no place for people to stay!"
Tang Jian trembled violently, quickly put his precious lifeblood back into his waistband, and cursed secretly,
"Every day I eat beef and mutton, and I get angry!"
"Mom, let's find two Turkic girls to vent our anger on later!"
"hiss--"
After another stir, he finally felt comfortable. Just as he was about to turn his head, he suddenly felt someone tapping his shoulder.
"Who!"
Tang Jian glanced unhappy.
Behind him, a timid Turk handed a parchment into his hand.
"Here, here's...a letter someone gave you."
The Turkic man whispered something and ran away quickly.
"Letter? Who can give me a letter now?"
Tang Jian adjusted his belt with some doubts, and opened the letter while walking towards the tent.
At this time, the wind and snow outside had subsided, but there was a heavy fog in the sky, so that in just a few seconds, the person who just delivered the letter could not be seen.
There are three pieces of letter paper.
On the first one, there were a few big words written:
"Are Turks fun?"
"What a joke, sir!" Tang Jian was extremely unhappy with this letter from an unknown source and couldn't help but curse.
I turned to the second page impatiently, and there were several big words:
"Have you ever heard of the story of Li Shiqi's mission to Qi?"
"Who hasn't heard of this? Who doesn't know who has read history books?" Tang Jian muttered, "Li Shiqi lobbied the King of Qi to surrender, but in the end he was cooked by the angry King of Qi because Han Xin attacked without saying hello. ”
"……etc."
Suddenly, Tang Jian felt a tremor, and even his heart suddenly shrank!
Suddenly, he had an extremely bad premonition!
Swish!
The next second, he decisively turned to the third page and saw those two lines:
"Know? If you know, why don't you run away?"
"Run!!!"
Tang Jian: "!!!"
In an instant, the pores all over his body stood up, and his hair was about to explode!
"Run, run! Where should I run? I..."
At this moment, his mind went blank and he was a little at a loss.
But Tang Jian was not a fool after all. The next moment, he turned around and ran in the opposite direction of the tooth tent in the heavy fog!
run! run! !
At this time, no matter where you run, you must be as far away from Jieli Khan’s tent as possible!
What? Ten beauties?
His life was almost gone at this moment. Where are the ten beauties here? !
It’s important to save your life!
"Ah ah ah! Xu Fenglei, Li Jing, you guys can kill a thousand swords!"
Tang Jian ran all the way and cursed secretly,
"You...you don't have martial ethics!"
Rows of footprints of different depths were quickly left on the snow.
A fat man, running wildly in the fog!
At this moment, less than ten miles away from the Turkic camp, a young general, with two hundred light cavalry, had sneaked up.
"Brothers, ahead is Jieli Khan's foothold in Iron Mountain!"
The young general was in high spirits, waving his riding crop and laughing wantonly,
"Follow me, go to his lair, capture Jieli Khan alive, and make him a prince for all generations!"
"drive!"
Horse hooves trampling on the snow, approaching quickly!
…
Inside the Tieshan Ya tent.
The brazier crackled, releasing waves of heat, warming the entire tent.
Even though Jieli was running away in embarrassment, the Turks were his territory after all. He could stand up wherever he went. The service equipment around him was not degraded at all, and he still had a tiger fur under his butt, so he was not cold at all. ,
"Yugushe, I issued a summons earlier, how many tribes responded?"
Jieli put a piece of tender mutton into his mouth and asked casually.
"Father Khan, people from many tribes have gathered in Iron Mountain in the past few days, and many tribes are coming to gather."
The Valley of Desire sets up a corresponding path,
"Father Khan's prestige is still there, and he can still respond to one call! Now there are more than 10,000 elite warriors and more than 100,000 herdsmen gathered around Tieshan,"
"I'm thinking about whether to build a larger camp in Iron Mountain and use it as a new stronghold."
Jie Li nodded slightly and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
fine.
The prestige accumulated over the years has not been exhausted.
As long as the people below are still obedient, then he is already the supreme Khan of the Turks!
"Not in a hurry."
He waved his hand and said,
"Tieshan is just a place to stay. There is a lack of materials here and there are no rich aquatic plants. It is not enough to support the lives of hundreds of thousands of people."
"When the preparations are completed, call the leaders of each tribe and we will discuss it."
"Yes," Yu Gushe nodded.
"Tang Jian... is it going to take him so long to relieve himself?"
Jie Li suddenly looked at Tang Jian's empty seat and couldn't help but frown and said,
"It's been a while, hasn't it?"
Yu Gushe also showed doubts.
"I gonna go see?"
He stood up and said.
Jie Li waved his hand.
Yu Gushe left the table immediately and walked out of the tooth tent.
Crunch, crunch.
Jieli Khan cut the leg of lamb in his hand. The more he cut it, the more something felt wrong.
So quiet.
This kind of silence seems the same as before, but it seems different...
An ominous premonition arose in his heart.
Ga!
Something's wrong!
The knife in his hand stopped suddenly. He stood up suddenly and was about to go out to inspect the camp, but suddenly someone stumbled in!
"Great Khan, Great Khan!"
"No! Tang Jun... Tang Jun is calling!"
Jieli Khan: "!!!"
"What did you say?"
His heart suddenly sank, and he glared,
"Say that again?! Where did Tang Jun come from?!"
The soldier said anxiously.
"It's the Tang Army! It's the Tang Army's cavalry, they've almost reached our camp!"
"There was a heavy fog outside today, and it was difficult to see the distance. The outpost was not clearly visible until the Tang Army cavalry approached six or seven miles away!"
"Great Khan, how should we deal with this?!"
boom!
Jie Li felt angry and stomped on the ground, almost making a hole!
"Where's Tang Jian! Where is this son of a bitch!"
He said angrily,
"Ben Khan is going to chop him alive!"
It wasn't until this moment that Jie Li suddenly understood.
The so-called peace negotiation was because he was paralyzing Li Shimin, and it was also Li Shimin who was paralyzing him!
Tang Jian was just a bait to make him relax his vigilance. In fact, Datang had no intention of negotiating peace at all and just wanted to take this opportunity to take him away!
At this moment, how could he not be angry when he wanted to understand this?
If we catch Tang Jian now, we must eat him alive and cut him into pieces!
Boom!
"Father Khan!"
Yu Gushe ran in in panic and said,
"I can't find Tang Jian. I've searched the entire camp and there's no trace of him!"
"He seems... he seems to have escaped!"
Jie Li's face turned pale.
Everything was planned in advance!
He has become the turtle in the urn!
"Father Khan, the Tang Dynasty cavalry is coming, and the shouts of killing have been heard!"
Yugushe stepped forward and grabbed Jieli's arm, saying eagerly,
"What should we do now! Father... what should we do?!"
It's this scene again, a scene that seems familiar.
"Father Khan, our army only has more than 10,000 people. The Tang Dynasty has an army of 100,000 people. We are definitely no match for them!"
Yu Gushe quickly made a comparison and urged desperately,
"Father, let's... let's run!"
Run again?
Run again!
"Run, run..."
Jieli's fingers trembled slightly, and his voice became urgent,
"Assemble the troops immediately, gather those who can, and abandon all those who cannot!"
"run!"
"Yes!" Yugu set up and left immediately, gathering his men.
Hey, don't mention it. After escaping from Dingxiang, I am now much more familiar with organizing and running. It can be said that I am very familiar with it!
"Tang Jian! Xu Fenglei! Li Jing...Li Shimin!"
Jieli Khan's heart was filled with anger and annoyance, and he roared,
"For today's shame, I will come back with revenge tenfold and a hundredfold!"
"You wait for me, you wait!!!"
When the roar fell, the Tieshan camp was reduced to a mess, repeating the grand occasion of Dingxiang!
…
The sun is shining high, the wind and snow have stopped, and the fog has dispersed.
It is rare that there is warm sunshine today.
Usually when encountering such good weather, Turkic herdsmen will never let it go. They will race against time to tidy up their cattle and sheep, and dry their cold, wet clothes and quilts. This can be regarded as supplies and used to replace them. Good to face the coming cold weather.
But today.
But they could only line up in a row, squatting in the snow, listening to the Tang people's scolding:
"Be honest! Don't try to play tricks. Your khan has run away, so why bother?"
"Yes! Let me tell you, if you obey us honestly, you will eat a lot of it. If you dare to resist, you will be killed immediately!"
"Tie them all up and string them together. The chief steward will count the number of people and the loot!"
"..."
The soldiers of the Tang Army faced the warm sun with smiles on their faces.
This battle was so exciting! There is no need to risk your life, you just need to capture prisoners crazily and collect the loot.
Bang!
"The last general, Su Dingfang, pays homage to all the managers, and pays homage to the chief manager!"
The young general knelt on one knee in front of Xu Fenglei's horse and said respectfully.
Xu Fenglei got off his horse and helped him up.
"Okay, okay, Su Dingfang, you did a good job!"
He smiled and praised,
"You dare to attack Jieli's fortress with only two hundred men. You have courage and courage!"
"The pharmacist has a good apprentice!"
As he spoke, he glanced at Li Jing.
Li Jing waved his hand to show modesty.
"Thank you, Chief Manager, for the compliment!"
Su Dingfang chuckled and said,
"You also said that the last ones will be young people. Young people must be motivated and must not be a coward!"
"In this battle, the general finally lived up to his command and beheaded more than a hundred Turkic soldiers! It's a pity that Jieli Khan ran away. This bitch, with oil on his soles, can run really fast!"
