Chapter 422 Driving King Yan
"Holy Lord, now we only have 60,000 soldiers and horses, and it is not easy to defeat the Turks, so do you want to draw some more soldiers and horses. When Li Jing said this, he hesitated for a moment, and then continued: "I just got the news that Nurhapai Dolgon of the Jin State led 40,000 soldiers and horses, ready to take the opportunity to plunder the Turkic steppe, even if our 60,000 soldiers and horses can defeat Jieli Khan, but in the future, we will have to fight with the Jin State again, and this number of soldiers and horses may not be enough." ”
How could the grassland that they had worked so hard to conquer by the Tang Kingdom be invaded by the Jin State in vain?
Therefore, in Li Jing's opinion, they have to teach the Jin State a lesson, after all, if the Turks are destroyed, the Jin State will be the biggest danger to their north.
For such an enemy, they cannot be soft and cannot even give them any respite.
After Li Jing's words were finished, Li Yu's expression moved slightly: "Dolgon led 40,000 soldiers and horses to attack?" ”
"Yes, this Dolgon is one of the most famous generals in the Jin Kingdom, and he is very powerful, and I am afraid that we will not have enough soldiers and horses."
Li Yu walked back and forth for a few steps, and then nodded: "If the Jin Kingdom also intervenes, the little soldiers and horses we have left now are indeed not enough, the flying pigeon will pass the book, recruit some more soldiers and horses, and send a message to the King of Yan, let him go north to stop the plundering of the grassland by the Jin Kingdom." ”
Speaking of this, Li Yu said: "Since King Yan has surrendered to my Tang Kingdom, he will do things for my Tang Kingdom, if he refuses to obey orders, I don't mind destroying him together." ”
In the past, Yan Thirteen, the king of Yan, was left behind, mainly because he wanted to use him to resist the Turks, but now that the Turks are about to be destroyed, if Yan Thirteen refuses to be obedient, then his value of existence will be much lower.
A person with no value in existence, Li Yu didn't want him to live too long.
After Li Jing listened, he already understood what Li Yu meant, nodded and went down.
The night is getting darker and darker, and although it is late spring, the grassland is still a little cool after nightfall.
There were many stars in the sky, Li Yu looked at the starry sky, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The next day, after the soldiers woke up, they continued to clear the battlefield, and after a few days of solving the matter here, they continued to march towards the Turkic royal city.
And not long after they set off, the Turkic royal city had already learned that Mohach had been killed and they were defeated.
When the news reached the Turkic royal city, Jieli Khan immediately stood up from his chair.
"What, Mohach was killed, and my Turkic soldiers and horses only escaped back with 30,000?"
90,000 Turkic soldiers and horses, only 30,000 escaped, this situation is too distressing for Jieli Khan, he still has 60,000 soldiers and horses here, and together it is only 90,000, 90,000 soldiers and horses, can they still hold the Turks?
Jieli Khan was shocked, and the ministers of the court and the central government were also discussing, a little nervous and worried.
Now, they only have these forces left in the Turks, so what to do next?
"Your Majesty Khan, we are not without a chance of winning now."
Just when everyone was worried and nervous, an old minister stood up, and Jieli Khan glanced at it and asked, "Oh, why do you say that?" ”
"Holy Lord, my Turks still have 90,000 soldiers and horses, and the Tang army only has 60,000 left, if we fight hard, our Turks still have a chance to win."
Hearing this, Jieli Khan smiled softly: "But don't forget, the Tang State only has 60,000 tigers and wolves left, and their Tang Kingdom still has more troops,"
Nowadays, the Tang State has at least 200,000 troops, and if the 200,000 troops are pressed against the border, they Turks will have no way to survive.
However, the minister was not in a hurry, and still said: "Holy Lord, now that the Wei State and the Ming State are at war, and the Tang Army is going to support, how many soldiers and horses can they mobilize?" "Moreover, Dolgon of the Jin State has entered the steppe with soldiers and horses, if I let the Turks let them in, then they will inevitably become the enemies of the Tang army, in order to prevent the Jin people, the Tang State will definitely send troops to confront the Jin State, at that time, how many Tang countries can come to fight against our Turks?"
The Jin State invaded the Turks, which was not a good thing for the Turks, but if the Tang State did not want to lose an inch of land, they would definitely feel that the Turkic land was their land, and the Jin State would take advantage of the fire to rob it, and the Tang State would definitely not be willing to do so, and at that time, the Tang State would really be able to send troops.
After thinking about it in this way, Jieli Khan gradually gained some confidence.
"Okay, my Turkic 90,000 soldiers and horses are enough to defend the Turks, and we must fight to the death for our homeland."
"Fight to the death, fight to the death......"
"Fight to the death, fight to the death......"
The Turkic ministers were very angry and waited for the arrival of the Tang army.
And just when the Tang army was rushing towards the Turkic royal city, Li Yu's edict had been sent to Yan Thirteen in Yancheng.
Yan Wang Yan 13 glanced at the edict after receiving it, and then said to the person who sent the edict: "Tell the Holy Lord, I, Yan 13, will definitely block the Jin Kingdom and prevent them from encroaching on the territory." ”
When the messenger heard this, he was relieved, and soon left to return to his life.
It's just that after the envoy left, Yan 13 immediately threw the edict into the fire and burned it.
"Lord Wang, what are you?" After the soldier next to him saw it, he was very puzzled, this kind of behavior was completely different from what Yan Shisan said just now.
Yan Shisan snorted: "If there is no strong enemy on the grassland, do you think there is any point in the existence of my Yan King?" Without the enemy, Li Yu is only afraid that he will cross the river and tear down the bridge, the stronger the Jin country, the safer we are, what I said just now is just to perfunctory Tang Yu. ”
Yan Shisan is a very smart person, he knows how to keep himself alive, if the Turks are destroyed, then his small Youzhou Yancheng is equivalent to being surrounded by the Tang State, surrounded by the Tang State like this, it is not easy for the Tang State to eat him?
Only if there continue to be enemies in their north will he Yan Wang have the value of existence, and Tang Yu will not act rashly against him.
After Yan Fourteen said this, his soldiers understood what Yan Thirteen meant.
"It's still the prince who sees it thoroughly, so if Jin Guo really comes, what should we do, we can't do nothing, right?"
"Just send a small group of soldiers and horses to deal with the Jin State, and when the time comes, Li Yu will blame it, and say that our troops are weak and we are not the opponent of the Jin State, as long as the Jin State is strong, Li Yu will have no way to take us."
After Yan Shisan finished saying this, those generals said yes again and again.
"It's still the prince who sees it thoroughly......"
A group of people slapped their horses, Yan Shisan was very useful, but after receiving it, he still had to order: "Okay, hurry up and do it, I'm afraid that Dolgon will come with soldiers and horses in the next few days." "Although it is for show, this look should be done in a full set, and it still has to be done in a full set.
