Sunisu stiffened slightly, but quickly relaxed, turned around and laughed.
"Prince Rencheng, why are you in such a hurry?"
He raised his hand and said,
"This is not the place to talk. Shall we go back to the tent and talk?"
The visitor was none other than Li Daozong, King of Rencheng, whom Xu Fenglei had mobilized in advance before marching into Tieshan!
"Yes."
Li Daozong shook his beard and responded with a smile.
The two of them returned to the big tent one after another. The firewood in the brazier was still crackling, and the leftovers on the table were not cleared away.
"It cost you a lot of money to entertain the remnants of Jieli!"
Li Daozong sat directly where Jie Li had sat, caressing the meat-cutting knife, and said with his tongue,
"Again, cattle and sheep are slaughtered, and again they are served by beautiful women..."
"Sunishi, do you feel bad?"
Sunish Khan heard this and smiled.
"Of course I feel sorry for you. Just killing those hundreds of sheep is enough to make our tribe unable to survive this winter."
He looked at Li Daozong, smiled and sighed,
"It can be said that in order to cooperate with you, I spent a lot of money!"
Li Daozong nodded.
Although it is a bit embellished, judging from the size of this tribe, Sunishi's words are not false.
"Don't worry! Datang will return double the amount of money you have invested."
He promised,
"This is definitely a sure-fire deal!"
When Suni Shi heard this, his eyes narrowed into slits, and chrysanthemum-like wrinkles appeared.
"Thank you, Prince Rencheng, thank you, Prince Rencheng!"
He raised the wine bottle, stepped forward to pour wine for Li Daozong himself, and said,
"Come on, let's have a drink, come on..."
Wow.
Li Daozong covered his wine bowl.
"You might as well drink slowly."
He raised his eyes to look at Sunishe and asked in a deep voice,
"Sunishi, I have checked the 1,500 personal guards that Jie Li brought, and they have all been drugged."
"Now, only Jieli is left."
"I agree with what you said. He can be captured without spending a single soldier. Now it seems that everything is going very smoothly, and the last step is just left."
"When are you going to take action?"
The final result of the war to destroy the country was right in front of him. Even though Li Daozong was still holding his head heavy, he was a little out of breath at this moment.
As long as he takes one step further, he can capture Jie Li alive and present it to the chief steward, and then to the emperor, adding glory to himself!
Therefore, he is not in the mood to drink now, he wants to be efficient!
"Uh... this, this..."
Sunishi was holding the bottle of wine, a little nervous.
"Huh?" Li Daozong frowned, "What's wrong with you? Is there any inconvenience?"
Sunisu shook his head, and then sighed softly.
"Prince Rencheng, you know that Jieli Khan and I are closely related by blood!"
He sighed,
"We Turks have a saying that no one can be relied upon, only relatives! In terms of seniority, I am still Jieli's uncle. You should have heard Jieli's uncle's calls just now, how eager he was, right?"
"Although I haven't contacted him for many years, we are still dear friends and relatives, just like brothers and sisters!"
"This time I was asked to show my blade to you. I...I was really a little..."
Li Daozong narrowed his eyes with a mocking look on his face.
"Oh - I see."
He sneered,
"Brothers, sisters, and friends, can't you do it for a while?"
"I think you want to raise the price on the ground, right? You don't think the promise I gave you is too thin, don't you?"
It's all over now, all that's left is the last shiver.
Siblings, relatives and friends, can't bear it?
What a liar!
I just want to add money.
"Hey, Prince Rencheng, don't speak so harshly."
Sunisu was exposed, but he didn't show any shame at all. He still said shamelessly,
"You know, after doing this, I will become a traitor to the Turks and a sinner of the entire clan."
"Not only did I kill my relatives, but I also sent our Turkic king to the guillotine. This is not a small crime!"
"This... I have to prepare a way out for the rest of my life, right? Do you think this is true?"
Li Daozong stroked his beard.
"It sounds like that, but—"
He stared at Sunish and retorted,
"The so-called Turkic traitor and the sinner of the entire race is entirely your own imagination! You are not worthy of such a big label."
"Don't make it seem like I came alone to ask you to kill Jieli. I came with five thousand elite soldiers! Do you think you have a choice? The initiative is mine, not yours, whether to kill Jieli or not." .”
"Understand?"
Sunishi: "..."
This merciless refutation made him look a little embarrassed, and he was speechless for a moment.
"certainly."
Li Daozong scolded him, then softened his tone, poured himself some wine, and said,
"You are cooperative. I have been dealing with you Turks for many years. There are not many people who are as cooperative as you."
"You can also take credit for allowing me to achieve victory without spending a single soldier."
Wow.
He stood up, raised his glass, and said seriously:
"I will report all of this to Your Majesty. Since Your Majesty knows rewards and punishments, I will definitely give you grace."
"When the time comes, whether you want to continue to graze on the grassland or want to become a rich man in Chang'an and spend the whole day drinking and drinking, it doesn't matter!"
"So, can it be considered as your wish?"
Rewards are what should be given.
But as the prince of the Tang Dynasty, he cannot be blackmailed and cannot accept the other party asking for more money before the battle!
Whether on the battlefield or at the negotiation table, the initiative must be in your own hands! After all, this game is about crushing!
"Okay, okay!"
When Suni Shi heard this, he was overjoyed and even bowed his hands.
"This tribe is small and difficult to support. I have longed for Chang'an for many years. I want to be a rich man. I want to be a rich man!"
"Come on, do it!"
What he wants is to go to Chang'an!
Ding!
The two glasses of wine collided together and they were both drank in one go.
"This pig's hair has almost faded."
Li Daozong pointed outside the tent, raised his hand and said with a smile,
"Shall we kill the pig?"
"Please!" Sunisu was full of energy, walked side by side with Li Daozong, and lifted his legs out of the tent!
And at this moment, in the sleeping tent,
"hiss--"
Jie Li was taking a nap with his eyes closed, and suddenly felt a chill in his body.
He was agitated, opened his eyes suddenly, rubbed his arms, and shouted dissatisfied:
"Water...heat the water for Benhan!"
At this moment, the water vapor has evaporated, and the water temperature in the bathtub is already a little cold.
The ten beauties who served him were also missing.
There was deathly silence in the entire sleeping tent.
"Where are the people? Where have all the people died?!"
He looked around and said loudly,
"Damn slave, I want to freeze to death!"
Wow!
As soon as he finished speaking, the curtain was opened.
Jieli's eyelids drooped. He thought it was a maid, so he urged:
"Hurry up, freeze!"
However, the visitors were not graceful beauties, but several burly men.
They split into two lines, slowly walked behind Jie Li, and then touched his skin.
"Uh-huh?"
Jie Li was about to enjoy the massage from his green fingers, but his skin suddenly stiffened.
Something's wrong!
These hands... are so rough!
