Chapter 158: Yue Yu
Seeing him like this, the smile on Jieli Khan's face deepened, and he felt a lot less jealous of Chen Feng in his heart, thinking that he would be able to do whatever he could, but after all, it was not too obvious.
And Chen Feng, who has always thought that he has lived a fairly transparent life, has obviously encountered a bottleneck today, and he doesn't know how to respond to Jieli Khan's question, and he hasn't even figured out Jieli Khan's intention to ask such a question.
Let's find an opportunity for Li Zhen'er to ask Jieli Khan, today he obviously can't ask the result, after all, Jieli Khan has already made such a mysterious appearance, it is clear that he doesn't want to explain to you at all, and Chen Feng doesn't have to go up to talk to himself.
Another battle report came, Hongdege's cavalry had lost more than half, and even Hongdege himself was extremely dissatisfied with the war, and in this regard, Jieli Khan still chose to listen to Chen Feng's opinion, ignored the matter, and did not respond to the war.
The original order was to let Hongdege's department be the vanguard and support it until the day the army arrived, and along the way, the army marched and stopped, according to the normal speed, it should have arrived now, but on the road it was dragged by Jieli Khan for more than three days.
Others don't know the reason, but Chen Feng is clear in his heart, and at the same time, he doesn't know how many times he has praised in his heart, Jieli Khan is definitely a hero in the world, just by virtue of his words and words, he put 20,000 lives in disregard, and even showed no hesitation in his behavior, Chen Feng had to admit that he was inferior.
During this period of time, every time an urgent report of the military situation came, his heart would be somewhat shaken, but looking at Jieli Khan, he seemed to have completely failed to take this matter to heart, as if after making up his mind to give up the 20,000 horses, he never had any emotional fluctuations because of the life and death of the 20,000 horses.
The occasional fluctuation is not because of how many of your own 20,000 horses were killed or wounded, but because of the cost of 20,000 horses in exchange for the enemy's army, if the disparity in casualties is too great, Jieli Khan will show a certain amount of dissatisfaction, but this dissatisfaction will only last for a short time, and then return to normal, should feel that this person is already a mortal person, and it is not worth wasting time on him.
And the reason why he was dissatisfied was probably because he had invested so much time and silver, manpower and material resources to train these cavalrymen, and on weekdays, they were all elite troops with one as ten, but when they arrived on the battlefield, he found that these people turned out to be so unworthy of their name.
So, where did he spend all the time and money he put in? Therefore, day after day, as the military consumption increased, the killing of Hongdege in the heart of Jieli Khan became heavier, and even reached an irreparable level.
Approaching the battlefield, the army stopped again to repair, and there was still about ten miles ahead to reach the battlefield, and at this time the army stopped for repair, firstly, to suspend the fatigue of their own marching soldiers, and secondly, to let the army in front of them react, give them time to react, and let them make arrangements.
In less than half an hour, ten people and ten horsemen rode wildly in front of him, rushed head-on, turned over and dismounted at a distance of 100 meters away from the army, and then led the horses in the direction of Jieli Khan, and when he reached a position three meters away, he fell to the ground on one knee with a bang, clenched his hands into fists, crossed his arms in front of his chest, and lowered his head, "Xiao Cavalry Battalion greets Khan." ”
"Get up." Jieli Khan stood up, there was no emotion in his eyes, it seemed that the ten people in front of him were not human beings at all, but ten machines, he had no feelings for them, naturally when they had no feelings for themselves, no feelings, they were naturally machine-like existences.
"Xie Khan." Words and deeds do have a well-trained flavor.
"How's the battle going ahead?" There was not even a little bit of concern in this tone, in Chen Feng's opinion, it seemed that he was completely disrespectful to put it in his heart at this time, but it seemed that Jieli Khan's emotions and the attitude he was showing now were normal performances, at least the ten people in front of him felt normal.
Chen Feng thought about it for a while, and felt that it was probably because he had been in a very relaxed state of mind when facing this emperor, and he ignored the normal behavior of ordinary people when they got along with the emperor who held the power of life and death of all beings.
Don't talk about others, even Chen Feng himself, after figuring out the joints, he feels that he is too casual in his daily life, I'm afraid it's not crazy!
And at this time, it was definitely not only Chen Feng who felt crazy, but also Du Li, who was far away in the Eastern Turks.
"Ziyan." Tuli Khan leaned back on the bed and looked at Du Li sitting at the table, "How long will it take?" He didn't know what he said, but Du Li understood what he meant.
"The heart has been sent for nearly half a month, and it should have arrived in Chang'an City, as for the Khan's letter of state, it should be a little slower, but it doesn't hurt." Du Li pondered for a moment, "At this time, the court should be discussing, until we can get support, it will take almost twenty days, the current season is the season of autumn rain, I am afraid that even counting the weather, a month may not be possible." ”
"Twenty days! One month! Hearing this, Tuli Khan breathed a sigh of relief, "A month's time, in terms of the battle situation, I'm afraid it's too late." ”
"Looking at the current battle situation, the two armies have their own victories and defeats, and there is no tendency to lose?" Du Li looked at Tuli suspiciously, he really didn't understand the march and battle, and some of what he said was indeed his doubts, and of course some of them played a guiding role.
"That is now, the enemy army under Jinlu Mountain only has 20,000 cavalry led by Hongdege as the vanguard, and the follow-up army is already on the way, and I am afraid that it is close to the battle position of the two armies at this time." There was a bit of sadness in the sharp voice.
"The Khan's heart is worried about Jieli Khan?" Du Li asked tentatively.
"In all fairness, on the battlefield, I am not an opponent of Jieli Khan, my uncle has been brave and good at fighting since he was a child, and he is also a hero who survives on horseback." Tuli Khan sighed with emotion, and when he mentioned Jieli Khan, there was still a subtle reverence in his eyes, as if he was mentioning his idol.
