Chapter 194: Extreme Pressure
After the others left, Li Shiyun sighed: "Pharmacist, you are a smart person, can we do this well?" ”
Li Jing smiled: "Only when Tang Jian goes to the peace talks, Jieli will be relieved, he will not think that we dare to attack at this time." This time he was scared by us, and I was afraid that he would run away if I was afraid of it, and if I wanted to do it once and for all, I had to take it by surprise. ”
"It's a pity that Tang Jian is a scholar, stubborn and pedantic, and cautious, he finally knew that you took advantage of him in the Turkic camp to launch an attack, putting him in danger, and when he returned to the court, he would definitely hold a grudge and be unfavorable to you in the court." Li Shiyun said.
"So what? You and I are extremely human ministers, and we don't have any worries about power, we are all old, and we want to do something now, if this battle is successful, then there will be no war in the northern part of my Tang Dynasty for decades, and I can rest with peace of mind. I was born in Mayi, and since I was a child, I have seen a lot of tragic images of Turks coming to the border to fight in the grass valley, and now I have this ability, and I must not let it go. If we succeed, we can go down in history haha. Li Jing said with a smile: "What Dongsheng said just now is good, you can't sell your name as a school bully, we can't even be as good as a child." ”
"Haha, if you want me to say, we are really not as good as Dongsheng, this kid, I don't know how to grow my brain, I can always come up with new ideas, if he hadn't decided to marry early, I would definitely have to take him as a son-in-law."
"You started late, he was married before he came to Chang'an, he was the daughter of an ordinary businessman, and my wife said that he was too wronged to rise."
"I heard that he is the father-in-law who took a fancy to him at a glance, and now it seems that he has a discerning eye."
"The main thing is that Dongsheng and that girl are in love, what others think is useless, Dongsheng is a person who doesn't care on the surface, but in fact, he is very proud in his heart and has his own persistence."
Both of them are heroes, once they make up their minds, they will not change, but they both talk about common things, this action is nothing at all for these generals who have fought for many years.
Tieshan, outside the Turkic camp, Tang Jian stood in front of the Turkic camp. The cold wind gusted, and his face hurt, and after waiting for a long time, a large group of people finally came out of the camp.
I saw a tall and bearded general, it was Ashina Simo who was the first to speak: "But Tang Jian, Lord Tang? ”
Tang Jian's trip was on behalf of Li Shimin, of course, he couldn't show weakness, and said with full anger: "Exactly, I came to talk with Jieli Khan on behalf of the Tang Dynasty, I don't know why he didn't come out to greet him." ”
Ashina Simo said with a very sad face: "Lord Tang, our Great Khan has never come out to greet him because he has been fighting for days and is in poor health. ”
Tang Jian's face was very angry when he heard this, this was the same excuse as kindergarten: "This general." My trip is to talk on behalf of His Majesty, but behind me is the honor guard of the Son of Heaven, Jieli Khan does not go out to greet him, so he loses etiquette, but he despises me Datang? Obsessed with thinking, this is what you call sincerity? ”
Tang Jian is a scholar, Confucianism pays the most attention to etiquette, Tang Jian was entrusted by Li Shimin, of course, to do everything to the best, the most important thing is not to lose face. He did not mention the illness of the Khan. Obviously, it means that propriety is more important than anything else.
He accompanied Tang Jian to Turkic, and he didn't know whether this situation was true or false: "Don't worry, Lord Tang, our Great Khan should be really sick." ”
Ashina Simo is still shirking: "Please also ask Lord Tang for forgiveness, our Great Khan has been fighting in such cold weather continuously, he is old, his body really does not allow it, and it is not that he did not mean not to come." ”
Tang Jian listened and scolded: "You Turks are really not sincere, inviting us to come to peace talks, but now you are making all kinds of small moves. My Tang Dynasty is a state of etiquette. Since you are not in good health and cannot go out, the peace talks will certainly not take place. Then we will camp outside the Turkic camp and wait for your Great Khan to recover. ”
Seeing that the Tang army was really preparing to set up camp, Ashina Simo hurriedly said, "Lord Tang, slow down. I will go to the king's tent to see if the Great Khan can hold on. With that, he hurriedly left with his stubbornness and lost his thoughts.
In the tent of the Turkic king, Jieli Khan sat on a chair covered with wool, with a serious face: "The Tang Dynasty envoys did not enter the camp?"
As soon as he came in and told him about the situation outside the camp, Jieli was immediately furious, "Obsessed with losing his thinking, you just do this?" Can't I let Tang Jun come to the camp to see me? ”
Stubbornly said: "Datang now has the advantage of war, and our army is in a difficult period now, so let's bear it." ”
Jie Li's angry scolding, how many years of foul language have been said. After venting for a while. Jieli Khan finally calmed down his anger and said hatefully: "Go, follow me out to meet the Tang people and satisfy their vanity." ”
Looking at Jieli Khan, who was walking at the forefront all the way, Tang Jian sneered: "The Khan dragged his sick body to come to greet him, it really touched us, the negotiations have not started, but as long as the Khan maintains such sincerity, we will definitely have a good result." ”
Jieli was very unhappy in his heart, but when he heard Tang Jian say that there was a good result, there was a light in his eyes, and he tried to make a hoarse appearance: "Forgive me, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, this time I Turkic negotiate peace with the greatest sincerity, and then the Turks and the Tang Dynasty will always be a state of brothers, and they will never invade each other again." ”
Tang Jian also laughed and said: "Datang also has this idea, anything can be discussed, I just hope that there will be no more swords and soldiers between the two countries." ”
The two seemed to be old friends who had known each other for a long time, and they were holding hands at the gate of the camp and talking and laughing. It's as if the unpleasant thing just now didn't happen at all. The surrounding Turkic soldiers were also very happy to watch, and they felt that this time the Tang Dynasty and the Turks would definitely be able to sign a peace agreement.
After talking for a long time, Jie Li slapped his thigh fiercely: "Oh, you see that I have neglected the distinguished guests, I have been talking outside for so long, come in quickly, I have prepared rich wine and food, and we will talk while eating." ”
Stretched out his hand to lead the Tang army to the camp, Jieli and Tang Jian put their arms into the king's tent, and then the flowing food and wine were presented, and Tang Jian drank dizzy, and the drunk Tang Jian returned to the camp with the support of the pro-soldiers, and the camp of the Tang army was set up in the middle of the Turks by the Turks, surrounded on all sides, Tang Jian and others naturally had to accept this camp in order not to let the Turks suspect.
In the following days, Tang Jian went to the Turkic king's tent every day to discuss matters. Others stayed in the camp to make sure things were in order. Tang Jian began this kind of drunken and dreamy life, eating and shopping every time, and then arguing with Jieli Khan. Tang Jian still has a level, he knows that it is Jieli who is begging for Datang now, so Tang Jian opened the conditions high, so that Jieli can't sign at all, this is the extreme pressure that *** said.
