Gao Dehong came over and took Nalan Xue and more than two dozen Khitan warriors to the northern tent, and Lin Nan saw her figure in the distance, and his face suddenly sank. Then he left 500 crossbowmen to hold the valley, and he himself came with his retinue to run to the Chinese army.

Lin Nan also bathed and changed clothes before coming to the big tent of the Chinese army, the civil and military generals stood left and right, Lin Nan shook off his robe and sat in front of the tent just waiting for the arrival of the beauty.

About half an hour later, I heard a report from outside the tent: "The Khitan envoy Nalan Xue has arrived!"

This shout, it couldn't help but be Lin Nan, and the civil and military officials also looked out of the tent. I saw a beautiful woman walk in. Dressed in a snow-white narrow-sleeved round-necked knee-length tunic that is extremely holy, with a fox fur cape, purple and gold boots under his feet, and a round phoenix crown on his head, and a pearl pendant hanging around the crown.

The shallow exposed cicada sideburns are as thin as wings, and the ears are equipped with white jade delicate phoenix gold earrings, and the necklace of the spirit bead is triangular and shining, similar to the color of the blue snow cloud shoulders, and a pair of slender jade hands are wearing a white light mesh manzao hand cage, and the limbo belt is phosphorescent and shining.

These precious accessories alone are already eye-catching, and with a peerless face, I am afraid that a man will be moved.

The two green daisy eyebrows are marked with spiritual embroidery, bright eyes, red lips slightly closed, and a flawless face is slightly red because of the heat experienced by Shicai in the valley. She slowly leaned into Lin Nan with the lotus step, and she could smell a rich and fragrant aroma in the entire tent, this fragrance did not come from some kind of external incense powder, but natural body fragrance, since ancient times, it seems that only Xi Shi is a beautiful woman who exudes fragrance all over her body, but Nalan Xue's body fragrance seems to be superior.

"The Khitan envoy Nalan Xue saw His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Sui Dynasty. The beauty crossed her hands on her shoulders and bowed deeply, and the generals in the entire tent actually stayed there, although they were not womanizers, but they had never seen a woman with such a look, which was even more beautiful than a fairy.

Lin Nan could only barely shake his mind, and said with a sigh: "Your Great Khan sent you to negotiate, but it is not ingenious. ”

The beauty had no expression on her face, took out the letter from her arms and handed it to Lin Nandao: "The Khitan small department offended Tianwei, and I hope that His Majesty will be lenient and forgive his sins and save more than 100,000 Khitan people." ”

Lin Nan knew that she was going to say this, but he didn't even read the letter, so he ordered: "You all go down, I have something to talk about with the Khitan envoys." ”

"Yes!" the generals did not say anything, but also understood, and withdrew from the tent one by one, and even the soldiers in front of the tent withdrew.

"I heard that you are Genji's daughter?" Lin Nan asked as he looked at her.

"Yes. ”

"Then why don't you have the surname Yuan?" asked Lin Nan a little strangely.

"I take my mother's last name. ”

Seeing her expressionless appearance, Lin Nan suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, and beckoned her: "Come here, let me take a look." ”

When Nalan Xue heard this, she was neither shy nor debauched, but said lightly: "Your Majesty first rescued my Khitan people, and Nalan Xue is willing to serve for life." ”

After hearing this, Lin Nan laughed twice and said, "If you come over and serve me now, I may ask someone to let go of Gukou." Nalan Xue didn't think about it, looked up at him and asked, "Your Majesty Jinkou said that you won't regret it?" Lin Nanen said with a sigh: "You have no jokes." ”

Nalan Xue took two steps forward, knelt lightly on her knees, raised her head and asked, "How does Your Majesty tell me to serve?" Seeing that he was so obedient, Lin Nan stretched out his hand and pulled her and said, "Come to my arms, I will teach you." Nalan Xue listened, she didn't look embarrassed at all, she got up and slowly snuggled in Lin Nan's arms, and the jade pendant on the crown made a jingling sound on the earrings.

"Don't you really know how to serve me?" Lin Nan asked softly.

Nalan Xue snorted, he found that although this woman looked like a fairy, her face was like wood, and there was no expression at all, which made him feel very bored, and he mistakenly thought that Nalan Xue was forced to be reluctant to come to tempt, so he had no expression.

Thinking of this, Lin Nan wanted to deliberately tease her, let her change her expressionless face, who would want her to look at the front with blank eyes, Mu G's appearance was very strange.

Lin Nan thought that she looked down on herself, and immediately slapped her in the face, but Nalan Xue was still the same as just now, and there was no change in the slightest.

Lin Nan was suddenly furious, pushed her down in front and shouted, "Do I make you look down on you?

Nalan Xue knelt down in front of him, still quietly saying, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, Nalan Xue has never thought so. If Majesty wanted my body just now, then please forgive Nalan Xue for not understanding Majesty's intentions, now I understand. ”

Lin Nan was even more furious when he heard her words, grabbed Nalan Xue and glared at her and shouted, "I don't want your body, I told you to laugh at me!"

Nalan Xue knelt on the ground with her head down, still as just now, and said quietly: "I'm sorry, I won't laugh." Lin Nan turned his head to look at her, and his anger subsided a lot in a while, this woman was so strange, there seemed to be something distressing vaguely, and she seemed to have seen through the red dust.

"Forget it, come on. Lin Nan sighed and shouted outside the tent, and the two soldiers hurriedly entered. "Take the Khitan envoy down to take care of her, and you must not let her move around at will, nor be lazy. After Lin Nan finished speaking, the two of them agreed to take Nalan Xue down, and as soon as the three of them went out, Li Jing walked in.

"Come, pharmacist. Lin Nan beckoned him over, and Li Jing saluted before saying: "Your Majesty, there are more than 100,000 Khitan tribes, if all of them are burned to death in the valley, I am afraid that everyone in Fanbang will be in danger, and it is inevitable that they will not have different intentions." Lin Nan nodded and said: "I didn't have the intention of burning them to death in the valley, I just wanted to deter them, but now that Yuanzhi has softened, I can evacuate the people and horses in the valley and let them out." ”

Li Jing was overjoyed, and arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty is magnanimous, I will go to pass the order." "Slow!" Lin Nan suddenly grabbed him and said: "There are still tens of thousands of warriors in the Khitan, and if they take revenge with hatred, it will be difficult for our army to be in a hurry, so when you send someone to deliver the decree, ask them to abandon all their weapons in the valley, and after they come out, they must be divided into seven or eight parts to take care of them." ”

Li Jing listened carefully and promised: "The emperor can rest assured, the ministers have their own measure." Lin Nan patted him with a smile and said, "The pharmacist is doing things, and I have always been at ease." After listening to this, Li Jing thanked him again and again, and then turned around and left the account.

More than 100,000 Khitan people went out of the valley in batches, but there were still thousands of people who died in the fire, and all the weapons were thrown inside, and among the dead was the leader of a tribe, which made the Khitans hateful, but after they came out, they were guarded in eight batches, and Yuanzhi was taken to see Lin Nan.

Lin Nan sat in the big tent, the generals around him stood with their heads held high, and the Sui army outside the tent was full of spirit and heroic spirits, but Yuan Zhi was a great sweat after all, and he was also a person who had seen some of the world, so when he saw this scene, he could still be calm.

Looking at the appearance of the wolf when Genji entered the tent, his sideburns were all burned. Lin Nan couldn't help but sneer: "So this is the sassy and heroic posture of the Khitan Great Khan?" After hearing a burst of laughter, Yuanzhi's face was pale, the green tendons on his forehead stood up, and his fists made a clattering sound, obviously angry.

Lin Nan saw that he was able to endure humiliation after being humiliated like this, and secretly praised him as a character, but at the same time, he felt that this person could not be kept, so he said coldly: "Yuan Da Khan is now obedient, what else is there to say?"

Yuan Zhi snorted coldly, raised his head and said: "The Great Sui Emperor is rich in the Dead Sea, but he used this despicable means to trap my Khitan people in the valley, it is really difficult to be called a hero, and Yuan Zhi is difficult to convince." ”

Seeing him say this, Lin Nan got up and walked over, staring at him with sharp eyes and said: "The Khitan has always surrendered to my Great Sui, and now you are uniting with the Turks and wanting to be unfavorable to my Great Sui, are you a hero?

Yuan Zhi saw that he was breaking his mind, so he simply asked loudly: "Then what is the reason why you Dasui are rich in the world, but let me pay tribute every year?"

Lin Nan sneered and said: "Since your clan has surrendered to my Great Sui, my Sui naturally wants to protect you and others, since you have been protected by my Great Sui, you naturally have to pay a reward, could it be that my Great Sui is just going to raise you in vain to raise tigers under your eyelids? ”

"You!" Yuan Zhi gritted his teeth angrily, but Lin Nan was too lazy to pay attention to him and ordered him to be taken down.

Seeing that Yuanzhi was out of the account, Li Jing immediately came out and said: "Your Majesty, this person must not stay." How could Lin Nan not know, but when he thought of that woman again, he couldn't help but take a deep breath, women and rivers and mountains, which is important? He didn't know, I'm afraid the kings of the past didn't know.

"Forget it, let's bring Yuanzhi back to Luoyang first. Lin Nan shook his head helplessly, Gao Dehong understood his thoughts best, and whispered to Li Jing: "That beauty is Yuanzhi's daughter." Li Jing suddenly realized, and then he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, there is an elder in the Khitan Department named Yelu Longji, this person is timid and afraid, it is better to appoint him as the leader of the tribe, and he will have no objection." ”

"Okay, just do as you say. Lin Nan was troubled in his heart, and Li Jing's construction was very reasonable, so he naturally agreed. At this time, a soldier hurriedly reported into the account, sweating profusely on his forehead, and gasped for breath before saying: "Your Majesty, the Turkic army of 150,000 is less than 500 miles away from here. ”

"What!" Lin Nan didn't expect the Turks to come so quickly. I was dumbfounded. All the generals were also panicked, only Li Jing stabilized his expression and said: "Your Majesty, the Turks are menacing, it is better to withdraw troops from Tongzhou quickly." ”

Lin Nan closed his eyes and pondered for a while. Said slowly: "If our army withdraws now, the Khitan tribes will inevitably be slaughtered even if they do not return to the Turks, and my Great Sui is known as hundreds of thousands of soldiers. ”

Gao Dehong suddenly debuted: "Your Majesty, the Turkic iron cavalry is extremely brave. One can be ten, I'm afraid our army will be difficult to resist. The generals all agreed with his words when they heard it, but Hou Junji said disdainfully: "What kind of Turkic iron cavalry, the minister is willing to beg the division of a brigade to break it." ”

Lin Nan's face was heavy, he looked at the map, and suddenly got up and greeted: "Pharmacist, Dehong, Junji, the three of you will go with me to check the terrain." The three agreed to go with them.

Running for dozens of miles, Lin Nan chose a higher place, looking at the endless grassland in front of him, under the clear sky, the distance was green and beautiful, but Lin Nan's mood did not change because of the good weather, but took a breath of cold air and said: "With such a terrain, if our army fights with the Turkic iron cavalry, it really has no chance of winning." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, it is a good policy to withdraw to Tongzhou Xu Tu early. Lin Nan was already beating more and more when he looked at it, and when he told Gao Dehong on the side, he was in a worse mood, so he turned around and left.

Gao Dehong saw Zhang Lang turn around with a gloomy face, and followed behind without saying a word.

Li Jia also silently returned to the Chinese army Dazhai and thought hard about countermeasures.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, everyone's faces were heavy. After half a sound, Lin Nan took the lead in breaking the heavy atmosphere in the tent and said, "Do you think you should withdraw your troops back to Tongzhou?"

Gao Dehong followed the line and said cautiously: "Your Majesty, I just received the news of Tanma, and the Turkic general Zhi Sili led the army to come in the starry night, and it seems that he wants to intercept our army between our withdrawals. ”

"No wonder they came so fast. "As soon as Lin Nan shot the previous case, all the generals were all the same.

At this time, Li Jing suddenly took out a map, unfolded it and spread it on Lin Nan's case, and the generals surrounded him, Li Jing said calmly: "This is a military map of this place. ”

Lin Nan asked in surprise, "Pharmacist, where did you get it?"

Li Jing sighed twice and said, "In the hands of Yuan Zhi, I don't know if it is useful to the lord." Lin Nan praised: "The pharmacist's mind is really meticulous, this picture must be useful." ”

Everyone nodded at the same time, Lin Nan looked at the map with satisfaction, Li Jing pointed to a small red dot in the middle of the map, and said: "This is Chahar, where the emperor's army is staying." Then he pointed to the map and said: "This place is surrounded by grasslands, and there is no barrier to rely on, and the Turkic army is in a hurry to march in, precisely because it is difficult for our army to resist his iron cavalry charge." ”

Lin Nan frowned greatly when he heard this, indeed, if he wanted to fight with the Turkic cavalry on the grassland with the same amount of infantry, even if his army was twice as large as the Turkic army, it would be difficult to ensure victory, not to mention that now the Turks had the upper hand.

"Your Majesty, the matter is urgent and indecisive, and the Turks will be approaching in less than a day, and it will be too late to regret it. Gao Dehong reminded again, but at this time, a horse report suddenly came into the account and said: "Your Majesty, the army of Zhisi Li suddenly set up camp, and it is not possible to stop the army." ”

"What!" Lin Nan suddenly stood up after hearing this. Li Jing thought for a while and said: "I have heard for a long time that this Zhisi Li is Zhuge Liang in the Turkic army, and he is very cautious, it seems that he knows the news that the Khitan has surrendered to my Great Sui, and he feels that now there is no internal and external attack, and he doesn't know the reality of our army, so he doesn't dare to rush into the army." ”

Lin Nan suddenly turned his face and laughed: "Since he doesn't know the reality of our army, that is to say, he really thinks that our army has hundreds of thousands of horses, so he doesn't dare to trade in, and if our army withdraws now, it will show weakness." Speaking of this, he suddenly snorted coldly and ordered: "The generals will listen to the order!"

"In!"

"Order the three armies, set off on the starry night, and march into Sili Dazhai!"

"This!" The generals were all taken aback when they heard this, only Li Jing said as if he had been empowered: "Clever plan, what a wonderful plan for the emperor!"

The generals were still puzzled, and Li Jing explained: "Zhisi led the army to come in the starry night, originally to save the danger of the Khitan. Now that the Khitan has surrendered, the morale of our army is winning, and the Turks have traveled a long way, but they are already at the end of their crossbows when they arrive here. If our army suddenly marches in at this time, Zhisi Li must have expected that our army will have hundreds of thousands. It is already a mistake to fight the arrogant soldiers with the army, and it is even more unreasonable to fight the strong with a few blows, and he will not be so stupid, I expect him to know that our army is coming, and he will inevitably withdraw in the starry night. ”

Lin Nan also swept away the gloom in his heart at this time, and laughed loudly: "He insisted on being cautious, so he expected that others would not dare to make dangerous moves, but this time I was afraid that he would lead the fifteenth army back and forth in vain." ”

The generals also woke up, and Gao Dehong stroked his palms and smiled: "I just don't know how many good Turkic horses will be tired to death." ”

As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of laughter in the tent. (To be continued.) )
