On the plain south of Dingxiang City, a group of cavalry stood quietly on the grassland, thousands of men and horses stood there, and there was no sound, all the soldiers were bowed and swords unsheathed, and the air was filled with an invisible murderous aura, and even the birds in the sky did not dare to approach here. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Li Jing rode a horse and stood on a relatively high soil slope, holding a telescope to look at Dingxiang City in the distance, after the Xiangcheng was defeated before, he had not made any moves, in fact, he had been waiting for Jieli's reaction, in fact, he hoped that Jieli could organize troops to take the initiative to meet the battle, so that he could fight with the Eastern and Western Route Army, and then eliminate the Turkic elite in one fell swoop.

However, it is a pity that Jieli did not make a fool in this matter, but retreated northward very shrewdly, although the armies of the east and west roads have gone around to Jieli's back to prepare to ambush Jieli, but Li Jing is not sure that he can annihilate Jieli's army, let alone catch or kill Jieli.

"I didn't expect Dingxiang City to be so broken, it seems that these former Sui remnants are not doing well?" At this moment, he suddenly saw Zhang Gongjin, who was also holding a telescope next to him, and said with a smile, he had just observed for a while, and found that the walls of Dingxiang City were very dilapidated, and even collapsed in some places, not to mention the infantry, even the cavalry couldn't prevent it.

"The grassland people don't understand the importance of towns, whether it is Xiangcheng before or Dingxiang now, it was a military town in the former Sui Dynasty, but it has only fallen into the hands of the Turks for more than ten years, and it has been all dilapidated, it seems that they not only do not maintain the city wall, but will also let others destroy it, otherwise it will never let the city wall fall into this shape for more than ten years!" Li Jing also put down the telescope in his hand at this time.

Li Xiu presented reading glasses to Li Yuan, and later simply got the telescope out, but because the lenses need pure glass or crystal, which also makes the number of telescopes very small, Li Shimin only let people make a batch, which is used to reward some generals who have made great achievements, Li Jing needless to say, Zhang Gongjin did not have a telescope before, until he presented the six major reasons for attacking the Turks, this was rewarded by Li Shimin with a telescope, which also made him extremely cherished, and usually took it with him wherever he went.

"Yes, when we attacked Xiangcheng before, it didn't take much effort, this Dingxiang City is worse than Xiangcheng, it is estimated that one charge can be taken!" Zhang Gongjin also nodded at this time, and after speaking, he put the telescope in his hand into a leather tube, and then put it close to his chest and hid it.

"Dingxiang City is indeed easier to fight, but fighting is always about death, so it's best not to do it, but it still depends on the prime minister's means!" When Li Jing said the end, he couldn't help but smile and said, he used to think that the Feinu Division was just an agency that provided intelligence, but now he found that the Feinu Division actually had the strength to determine the outcome of a war.

"What the general said is that if there is no movement in the city at the appointed time, then we will send troops directly, it is estimated that the city already knows the news outside the city of our army array!" When Zhang Gongjin said the end, he couldn't help but turn his head again to look at Dingxiang City in the distance, even without the help of a telescope, he could see that the Turks on the city wall seemed to have increased a lot.

At the same time, the contest between Zhao Deyan and Kang Sumi is still continuing, and in the face of Kang Sumi's questioning, Zhao Deyan smiled indifferently and said: "Actually, I don't need to say it, with the general's shrewdness, I'm afraid I can guess some, since that's the case, then I'll make it clear, with the current situation, does the general think there is any future by Jieli's side?" ”

Kang Sumi is not a fool, he also had a vague guess in his heart before, and now he heard Zhao Deyan's words, but he still showed a surprised expression, and finally even said a little incredible: "Ye Hu, you actually want to join the Tang Dynasty?" ”

"Haha~, why can't I take refuge in Datang?" Zhao Deyan laughed and asked rhetorically at this time, in fact, he knew what Kang Sumi meant, he was a Han but took refuge in Jieli, and he also helped Jieli do so many things, in the eyes of many Han people, he is a traitor among the Han people, for example, many scholars in the Tang Dynasty scolded him for betraying his ancestors and abandoning his ancestors, so even if he wants to take refuge in the Tang Dynasty, I am afraid it will not end well.

"This ......" Looking at Zhao Deyan's laughter, Kang Sumi didn't know what to say for a while, he knew that many Turkic people were actually not so loyal to Jieli, especially after Tuli also defected to Datang, and set an example for many people, so many people had privately thought about rebelling against the Turks and defecting to Datang, including Kang Sumi himself, but he always felt that Zhao Deyan was the most trusted person in Jieli, and he was a traitor to the Han people, and even he wanted to join Datang It was a little incredible.

"Okay, I won't go around in circles with the general, in fact, I was originally a spy sent to the Turks by the Tang Dynasty, before I seemed to help Jieli reform the internal affairs, but in fact, the real purpose is to disturb the Turkic interior, and I have achieved this goal, so now I want to return to the Tang Dynasty, and before leaving, I want to dedicate Empress Xiao to my Emperor Majesty of the Tang Dynasty, if the general is willing to help me, then your future glory and wealth will not be a problem!" After Zhao Deyan smiled, he suddenly restrained his smile and said solemnly, he had been holding back these words in his heart for a long time, and now he can finally spit it out.

"What!" Kang Sumi couldn't help but stand up in shock when he heard that Zhao Deyan claimed to be a spy of the Tang Dynasty, but his actions made the ambushed guards rush out at once, and more than a dozen sharp crossbows flashing with cold light were all pointed at his whole body.

"Hehe, the general doesn't have to be surprised, nothing in this world is impossible, when my family was taken captive to the Turks, in the end I was left alive alone, in order to take revenge, I don't mind pulling hundreds of thousands of Turks to my family to bury, now it depends on the general's choice!" When Zhao Deyan said these words, although he was smiling on his face, there was an indescribable coldness in his smile, if possible, he even wanted all the grassland people to bury his family, it can be said that hatred has become the only meaning of his life.

Looking at the murderous guards around him, and hearing the hatred in Zhao Deyan's words, Kang Sumi couldn't help but feel a chill to the bone, and after a while, he slowly spoke: "Zhao Yehu, even if you kill me, I'm afraid you won't be able to command my subordinates, and then you will only bring yourself to death, you have to understand this!" ”

In the face of Kang Sumi's threat, Zhao Deyan smiled indifferently again: "My safety is not worrying about the general, but I can tell the general that Li Jing's army is outside the city, as long as I don't show up before dark, they will bloody Dingxiangcheng, the general thinks that with only your more than 1,000 cavalry, can you stop Li Jing's army?" ”
