Li Ke's eyes were firm, and the Zhuge Liannu in his hand was like his second life. Every time he pulled the trigger, he was reaping the lives of his enemies.
The Altai army was caught off guard by this sudden attack. Their artillery could not aim at Li Ke, and their bows and arrows could not hit him.
They could only watch their companions fall one by one, but there was nothing they could do.
"You cowards, can you only use artillery and bows and arrows?" Altai mocked, his voice echoing on the battlefield.
The soldiers of the Altai Army looked at the man who rushed into their camp in horror. They could not understand how these people did it.
Their cannons could not hit him, their bows could not reach him, their warriors could not stop him.
"Where is your general? Let him come out and fight me!" Qin Zaiming shouted loudly.
Altai heard Qin Zaiming's words and walked out from behind the camp. He looked at Qin Zaiming with anger in his eyes.
"Who are you? Why do you want to attack us?" Altai asked.
"I am Qin Zaiming, a general under Emperor Li Ke of the Tang Dynasty. I am here to let you know that you will have to pay the price sooner or later for your provocation against the Tang Dynasty." Qin Zaiming said.
When Altai heard Qin Zaiming's words, he laughed: "What? When did the emperor of the Tang Dynasty change? How come we don't know yet? Where is Li Shimin? Did he die? Is Li Ke his useless son? .”
"Bold, vulgar people really can't speak. The new emperor has just ascended the throne in Licheng. Now let's celebrate it with your blood and territory."
After saying that, Qin Zaiming looked at him coldly. The Zhuge Liannu in his hand kept firing, and every time he pulled the trigger, he was reaping the lives of his enemies.
The soldiers of the Altai army began to panic and they began to flee in all directions, but they could not escape Li Ke's pursuit.
Their generals tried to organize a counterattack, but their men had been frightened by Li Ke's Zhuge Liannu and lost their fighting spirit.
Li Ke looked at everything in front of him, with no expression on his face. He knew that the war was over and the Altai army could no longer pose a threat to him.
"You should know that war is not the way to solve problems." Li Ke said to the generals of the Altai army.
When the general of the Altai army heard Li Ke's words, he was silent for a while, and then he said: "Maybe you are right, but we have no choice."
When Li Ke heard what he said, he didn't speak, he just looked at him. He knew that this man had fallen into despair and that he could no longer see hope.
"I will let you see hope." Li Ke said.
When the general of the Altai army heard Li Ke's words, he looked at him with doubts in his eyes.
Li Ke sat on his tall chariot, looking at the defeated Altai and his soldiers in front of him, and said sincerely.
"I am Li Ke, the new emperor of the Tang Dynasty. I sent troops to the Turks to let you know that I exist. I will not be like the emperor in Chang'an City, who only resists but does not attack. From now on, don't underestimate me, the Tang Dynasty."
"Secondly, your Turkic geographical environment is harsh, your people live in poverty, and crops are difficult to grow. Go back and tell your Oli Khan that as long as he is willing to surrender to me, I will no longer lead troops to attack."
"Otherwise, I will lead my troops to raze the Turks to the ground so that our people of the Tang Dynasty can recuperate."
Li Ke's words were impassioned, and the soldiers behind him were excited. Qin Zaiming said to his generals: "Let Altai go. Your Majesty still expects him to go back and bring a message to their khan!"
"Hahahahaha"
The soldiers behind him laughed in victory, but this laughter sounded particularly harsh to Altai's ears, so ironic and extremely insulting.
Altai was also a Turkic general who was once all-powerful and well-known outside the country. He had great military exploits and was never defeated. This time he was beaten so brutally by Li Ke, and he couldn't stand it in his heart.
But he knew that he had a more important task now, which was to bring about another emperor in the Tang Dynasty who was more bold and fierce than Li Shimin.
The emperor was expanding his territory, and his Turkic country was the first target of Li Ke's attack.
He must personally report such important information to his most respected Khan. The Turkic Kingdom must not become a prisoner of the Tang Dynasty.
Li Ke looked at Altai, who was staggering back, with thousands of miles of yellow sand and the back of a defeated general. This picture was really desolate.
Li Ke defeated Altai and took Qin Zaiming and Quan Wanji back to the barracks to celebrate. The news also reached the ears of Li Shimin as far away as Chang'an.
Li Shimin sat in front of the mahogany desk in the study, holding a letter from the frontier in his hand, his brows furrowed and his eyes deep.
"Li Ke, this rebellious son, always likes to cause trouble for me." Li Shimin muttered in a low voice, but a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He knew that no matter who he was, as long as he was a subject of the Tang Dynasty, it would be a good thing to deal with the Turkic Kingdom. However, this Li Ke was too flamboyant and declared everywhere that the Tang Dynasty now had two emperors.
This is too disrespectful to Li Shimin. He has done all the good things. Isn't this a naked threat to his throne?
Li Shimin gently stroked the letter, as if he could feel the joy of Li Ke's victory. He thought of the days when he was young. At that time, like Li Ke, he was fearless and moved forward bravely.
"Li Ke, my son, what if you hadn't proclaimed yourself emperor like this? Maybe I would really pass on the country to you." Li Shimin whispered, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
However, Li Shimin knew that this was just the beginning. Li Ke's victory was just a small victory, and greater challenges were still waiting for them ahead.
Li Ke and the others celebrated all night in the barracks. However, when night fell and the stars were shining brightly, they did not feel sleepy at all.
Li Ke stood at the door of the barracks, looking at the starry sky in the distance, and his heart was full of determination. He must eradicate the Turkic country in one fell swoop. There were only two ways left for the Turkic Khan, either to surrender or to return to the west.
"Your Majesty, what are you thinking about?" Qin Zaiming walked to Li Ke and asked softly.
"General Qin, I'm wondering how Altai will report to their khan after they return." Li Ke replied.
"Oli Khan, how will you react when you learn that Altai was defeated and that I ascended the throne in Licheng?"
Qin Zaiming looked at Li Ke's firm eyes, and his heart was full of admiration. For Qin Zaiming, Li Ke was not only his king, but also his mentor and friend who saved him from fire and water.
Li Ke can always find a way to turn things around in critical moments. Qin Zaiming feels that he is following the right person this time and must be loyal to Li Ke.
