Chapter 44: I'll Let You Go
"Hiss ......"
Li Hanlu stopped and looked at Li Tagu: "Father, the Tang Army's pursuers have been thrown away by me, and they will not catch up within half an hour." ”
When Li Tagu heard this, he didn't have the slightest excitement, looked at his daughter, and said helplessly: "Hanlu, my father can't help but be angry, it doesn't matter if I die, you have to find a way to survive." ”
"Why did my father say that?"
Li Hanlu was shocked when he heard this, looked sideways in the direction of Zhuolu Valley, and immediately understood.
"There's an ambush in the valley?"
Li Tagu nodded lightly: "There are Tang cavalry behind, the road ahead is cut off, we are afraid that we will not be able to escape, this is all because I am too greedy, if I had evacuated Ulzhou earlier, it would not have been like this." ”
At this moment, Li Tagu's heart is extremely remorseful, his greed has caused the tribe to suffer huge losses, he has a kind of 'shameless to see Jiangdong's fathers' sigh, however, the world is greedy, and there are too many people whose beautiful lives are ruined by greed.
"Father, don't be discouraged, we must have a way to escape."
Li Hanlu opened his mouth to encourage, and looked sideways at Li An and the six people in the distance, his eyes suddenly stunned.
She had spent some time with Li An and the others, and for this reason, she recognized Li An and the others at a glance, and he could see that Li An was the leader of this ambush.
Li Hanlu had a glimmer of hope in his heart, looked at his father, and said, "Father, the person in front of you is the one who saved me twice, maybe you can let us go." ”
Li Tagu was very worried about his daughter going to assassinate An Lushan, and after she returned, she asked Mi Niang in detail, and learned about the journey along the way, so she naturally knew that Li An and others had an experience with their daughter.
When Li Tagu heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head and said: "Friendship is friendship, the so-called military order is like a mountain, he was ordered to set up an ambush in the valley, in order to stop us, if we are let go, he will definitely be beheaded, Pingshui meets, will he be willing to lose his life for you." ”
When Li Hanlu heard this, she really didn't think about it, if Li An threw away his life and let himself go, he felt that Li An might not agree, the friendship between them was not so deep, but if Li An could not be convinced, his father would become a prisoner of the Tang Dynasty, and it was very likely that he would be beheaded.
In Li Hanlu's heart, her father Li Tagu is her most important person, and in order for her father to go back alive, she must convince Li An.
Li Hanlu looked sideways at his father's old face and made up his mind: "Father, I will have a way to persuade Li An, at least give it a try, and drive ......"
Riding the horse slowly, Li Hanlu stared at Li An, she was not completely sure to convince Li An, but no matter what the result was, she had to give it a try, she wanted to know how important her relatives were in Li An's heart, and whether she would sacrifice herself for her relatives.
Li Hanlu in front of him slowly rode over, Li An's eyes showed surprise, he naturally recognized Li Hanlu immediately, the five people behind him, only Zhang Guangsheng had never seen Li Hanlu, the other four all looked at Li Hanlu in surprise, Li Fei Shouyu was even looking for Mi Niang's figure.
"Stay where you are, I'll meet her."
Li An explained, and rode his horse forward slowly.
"Ang Li, I didn't expect us to meet again, you saved me twice, and I haven't thanked me yet."
Li Hanlu took the initiative to say hello, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, but her tone was still cold.
Li An smiled indifferently, wary of Li Hanlu's friendliness, and joked softly: "Hanlu girl, you look very beautiful when you laugh, why don't you smile more?" ”
Li Hanlu didn't have the slightest look of annoyance, and said softly: "There are strong enemies in front and behind, and there are chasing soldiers in the back, how can I laugh, Ang Li, you were ordered to arrest us?" ”
"You have no way out, so surrender obediently!"
"Can't you just let us go?"
"Shouldn't you pay some price for your Nu troops to invade Datang County, plunder the people, and make the people of Ulzhou miserable?"
"Our elite soldiers have suffered heavy losses, and they will not recover for twenty years, and they will never enter the Tang Dynasty again in the future?"
Li An still shook his head, and said with a straight face: "Hanlu Xiaoniang, I will intercede for you in front of Wang Jieshuai, with the mind of the Tang Empire, as long as you are willing to submit, the court will not blame the past." ”
Li Hanlu smiled faintly at the corner of his mouth: "I know, if you let us go, you will be killed, and you are also very embarrassed, but if I can't go back, who will protect your relatives." ”
"My loved ones?" Li An was stunned.
Li Hanlu looked into the distance and said calmly: "Li Ya'er said that the eldest brother loves her the most, when her hands are cold, her eldest brother will take her hand and put it in his arms, and ......"
"The young sprouts are still alive, and she is in your hands?"
These private things are only known to Ang Lee and Nguya, if it weren't for Nguya Er telling Li Hanlu in person, Li Hanlu would never know so much, that is to say, Nguya is indeed in Li Hanlu's hands.
"Li Ya'er is a very cute little lady, she is very good now, you can rest assured."
Li An was a little angry: "Are you blackmailing me? ”
"Last time I said goodbye, I found Li Ya'er when I returned to the tribe, and asked Mi Niang to go to White Wolf Mountain to tell you, but you have already left White Wolf Mountain, and then in Anbian City, Mi Niang said that I found you, but the two armies are fighting, how do you let me find you, are you Cheng Cheng when I am I?"
When Li An heard this, he suddenly thought that Mi Niang had told Li Fei Shouyu the news that the spy was going to be poisoned, so that he was prepared, so that Li Hanlu was not bad-hearted, and at this moment, in order to escape from the valley, he was also forced to be helpless to blackmail himself with the young sprouts.
Nguya Er is still alive, Li An is happier than anyone else, and in order to let Nguya return to him, he must let Li Hanlu and the others leave.
"Hanlu Niang, I am willing to let you go, when will you return the sprouts to me."
Ang Lee made a decision without hesitation.
Li Hanlu was slightly stunned: "Ang Li, if you let us go, won't we be killed?" ”
Although, this is exactly what he wanted, but when Ang Lee really agreed to let them go, she unconsciously began to worry about Ang Lee.
"My head is so hard that no one can kill me, you don't have to worry about me."
Li Hanlu nodded lightly: "In three days, I will take her and wait for you here." ”
"It's a deal."
Ang Lee said yes and reined in his horse to return.
"Erniu, let the warriors not move, let them go."
Zhang Erniu was suddenly startled and froze in place.
"Li Shaolang, there must be the leader of the Fan army ahead, and they can't be let go."
Zhang Guangsheng tried his best to dissuade him.
Li An glared at Zhang Guangsheng and said loudly: "I have the final say here, you all get out of the way and let them go." ”
Seeing Li An's insistence, Zhang Guangsheng had no choice but to shut up, and Zhang Erniu had no choice but to issue an order to let the warriors in ambush on both sides stand still.
Li Hanlu rode back and looked at Li Tagu: "Father, Li An has promised to let us leave, get out of here quickly!" ”
Li Tagu didn't have time to think about it, so he immediately rode forward and followed Li Hanlu towards the valley.
When passing through the valley mouth, Li Tagu glanced sideways at Li An and the others, and continued to move forward, while Li Hanlu stopped his horse and watched the Nu people leave one by one.
"Mi Niang is okay!" Li Fei Shouyu asked coldly.
Li Hanlu nodded lightly: "She's fine, you don't have to worry." ”
When the last cavalry left, Li Hanlu looked at Li An, said 'take care', and then rode after him.
Watching Li Tagu and his party of nearly 500 horsemen slowly leave the valley, Li An's mood was very complicated, it was completely his responsibility to let Li Tagu go, but in order to let Li Hanlu return the young sprouts, he had to do this, in his opinion, Li Tagu and others did not pose a great threat to the Tang Empire, and they could not talk about letting the tiger return to the mountain.
"Big brother, let go of the remnants of the Tibetan army, how should we explain?"
Li Kunxiong was very puzzled by Li An's behavior, but he believed in his eldest brother, and he knew that Li An had a reason to do things, and it was impossible to let go of the remnants of the Tibetan army for no reason.
A smile squeezed out of the corner of Li An's mouth: "The tender sprouts are in Li Hanlu's hands, she is alive and well." ”
"It's great that the sprouts are alive."
Kunxiong and Feiyu were both very happy, if this was the case, it would not hurt to let Li Tagu go.
Li Fei Shouyu and Zhang Erniu were also very happy when they heard this, but Zhang Guangsheng frowned, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Stepping on ......"
Nearly a thousand armored horsemen roared over, and the leading general was Li Guangbi.
"Hiss ......"
Arriving at the valley mouth, Li Guangbi and his cavalry stopped and looked at Li An and the others.
The corpses of more than a dozen cavalrymen of the Fan Army attracted Li Guangbi's attention, he looked at Li An and asked loudly: "Li Shaolang, have you ever seen the soldiers and horses of the Fan Army?" ”
Li An smiled lightly: "General Hui, there are nearly 500 soldiers and horses in the Fan army, and I shot more than ten horsemen in the forward, and the rest have all fled." ”
Li Guangbi frowned and said loudly: "Where did the Fan army flee?" ”
"Take the path and flee due north."
"General, this is impossible, the road to the north has long been blocked by our army, and the Tibetan army has no other way but to pass through the valley."
A subordinate general whispered in Li Guangbi's ear.
Li Guangbi also felt that there was a problem here, he thought that the Fan army was very likely to run away through the valley, but how could Li An let the Fan army go? This made him a little puzzled.
"Li Shaolang, this general was ordered to pursue the remnants of the Fan army, please get out of the way and let our army pass."
Li Guangbi had almost decided that the remnants of the Fan army had escaped from the valley.
At this time, not long after Li Tagu's soldiers and horses left, if Li Guangbi was allowed to pursue, Li Hanlu and his party were very likely to be caught up, so that the young sprouts could not be sent back smoothly.
Li An stepped forward and said loudly: "The general forgives the sin, I was ordered to stick to the Zhuolu Valley, and no soldiers and horses can let go." ”
"What?"
Li Guangbi was furious, and even more convinced that the remnants of the Fan army had been let go by Li An.
