Chapter 376: Life or Death

Unlike Holohu's anger, Tuli was very open-minded and prepared that in the rules of the game, the loser would have nothing, including life, wealth, and relatives. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

To compete for hegemony is to have the consciousness of failure.

"What about Mr. Zhu? Also gone? Tuli asked again.

He Luohu said: "Sir has been waiting outside the tent for his father Khan to summon him. ”

"You bastard, don't invite Mr. Zhu in quickly." Tuli was furious.

The tent door opened, and Zhu Chang, who was also embarrassed, walked in and saluted: "My subordinates have seen King Khan." ”

"Sir, don't be polite." Tuli was a little sick and rushed to the doctor: "Sir, we have been defeated, Jieli will not let our tribe go, what should we do." ”

Zhu Chang said in a deep voice: "King Khan, Jieli didn't kill him. In the opinion of his subordinates, he wants to effortlessly recruit all the allies and subordinates of the Khan King, and wait until you are only left with your own headquarters, and then attack you who have nothing to fight back. He was staring at it from afar now, and he was also afraid that everyone would be in a hurry, and the Khan King gathered all his strength to fight with him. ”

"Sir said with a smile, the prairie is the weak, I have no power to return to the sky, and those so-called allies will abandon me sooner or later. The grassland people are different from you Central Plains people, who value love and righteousness, and the losers on the grassland will never have allies. Speaking of this, Tuli laughed at himself and said, "I have seen through these so-called allies and subordinates, and the final outcome is still the same." Now even his wife is running far away, and he can't wait to cut off all relations with me, and he can't complain about others? I can see everything now, the most can't let go of these filial sons and daughters, I hope that Mr. will see that we have a relationship, and I Tuli is worthy of Mr.'s sake, quietly take them away, they have half of the Central Plains blood, let them go to the Central Plains as ordinary people. ”

"You can't go that way." Zhu Chang shook his head and smiled bitterly: "You also said that you saw through the so-called allies and subordinates ......"

"Yes, I was wrong again." Tuli looked at a pair of children with pity, and sighed: "This is a certificate of fame and merit." How could they let you go? Let's die, let's die. Tuli said disheartenedly.

"The Khan is too pessimistic."

Zhu Chang analyzed: "King Khan, you have reached the point where you have run out of oil and dried up, but is he better off?" Why did Jieli use his might to dismantle the Khan's subordinates? It is he who wants to preserve and accumulate strength. To recognise all the Turks for his use, as long as he is a Turk, whether it is your subordinates or his subordinates, they are extremely precious soldiers. Even one person he is reluctant to consume. ”

Tu Li's godless gaze suddenly ignited hope, and Huo Ran said: "Mr. is saying that Datang is going to send troops?" ”

"If you were Emperor Tang, what would you do?" Zhu Chang asked rhetorically.

"Naturally, I took advantage of Jieli's weakness to give him a fatal blow." Tuli said to himself with some excitement: "Yes, yes, how did I forget, we still have Datang, as long as Datang is willing to help us, we will definitely be able to turn defeat into victory." ”

Jieli was unwilling to fight again, he waited for the Khan to collapse without a fight, but he didn't know that this also gave the Khan King precious time to reorganize, and the people who were left behind were people who had great grudges with Jieli, they didn't want to go to Jieli, but in fact they were hesitating and afraid to wait and see. Jieli has always exterminated the people who betrayed him in the past, and it is precisely because of his evil deeds that people are so afraid that they dare not surrender. And this is also the only chance for the Khan King, if it is delayed for a while and a half, if Jieli really forgives one or two tribes with whom he has a deep grudge, the Khan King will be really dangerous. At present, what the Khan King wants to do is to promote the evil deeds of Jieli, so that these people will be even more afraid, so that they will have to follow the Khan King all the way to the end. ”

He Luohu also said sharply: "Father Khan, Mr. is a pearl, this plan is also our only way out, we still have about 50,000 troops in battle, we must unify the hearts of the people before the Jieli operation, and win them over thoroughly, otherwise everything will be over." Our tribe and Shuofang are only three days away, when we retreat to the Shuobei grassland, it will be safe, and then we can rely on the Tang Dynasty, and we can still fight with Jieli to the end. ”

"What else is there to talk about the qualifications? It's naΓ―ve and too taken for granted. Those people in Chang'an are all cannibalistic and boneless guys. ”

He Luohu's words made Zhu Chang smile. However, he still said quietly: "What the prince said is very true, what the king of Khan wants to do now is to give everyone the confidence and belief to fight with a clean appearance, high morale, and unyielding spirit. ”

"As Mr. said." Tuli said to Holohu, "Let someone fetch me water." I want to meet the leaders. With everyone's encouragement, Tuli regained some fighting spirit.

Waiting for the next person to send the clear water, after touching the clear water, Tuli's mind was clear, and he said while cleaning: "He Luohu, you are going to Chang'an under the stars, no matter what, you have to meet His Majesty Datang, and I implore Datang to protect us." As long as the Tang Emperor is willing, we can sacrifice all costs. "After all, he is a half-life person who has played politics, and he sees it more thoroughly than He Luohu, who was a fledgling at the beginning, and he is not qualified to bargain at all now.

After He Luohu left, he said to Zhu Chang: "Sir, when I gather the leaders of the various tribes, I will send three hundred of the most loyal guards to escort you and Yun'er to the south of Shuofang, and ask Qin Feng to send troops to assist us in deterring Jieli, whether you can retreat safely depends on you, the same, we must agree to any conditions, otherwise we will be in danger of the destruction of the whole clan, and when you arrive in Shuofang, you will settle down and wait for us to go south." Yun'er, Mr.'s words are my words, you must obey Mr.'s arrangement as if you listen to me, although I have never met Qin Feng, but he is a hero of the Tang Dynasty, and he will definitely not embarrass you as a weak woman. And Qin Feng's mother Yang Yu'er and your mother Princess Huainan have a deep sisterhood, your mother has mentioned this matter many times before her death, the jade pendant in your arms is a gift from Yang Yu'er when your mother left the Central Plains, in case I am not there, you go to Chang'an to see Yang Yu'er with this jade pendant, I believe she will take care of your brothers and sisters. ”

Tuli explained the same instructions as the aftermath, which made Ashinayun cry bitterly, saying that he would be with Tuli even if he lived or died.

Tuli was also very sad in his heart, and he forced a smile: "Yun'er is the most beautiful swan on the grassland, and she is also the most well-behaved deer, and she listens to her father Khan the most." Go, I have to be distracted to take care of you when you are by your side, and I can't let go of my hand without any worries **** to finish, he said to Zhu Chang: "Sir, everything is left to you." ”

Zhu Chang was also a little sentimental in his heart, Tuli was indeed very good to him, that kind of unreserved trust made his heart heavy, and he said in a deep voice: "King Khan, rest assured, his subordinates will definitely bring the princess to Shuofang safely." ”

********************

Just as Tuli gathered the leaders of the tribes and intimidated them with Jieli's past experiences.

He Luohu led his guards to break through the siege, and rushed to Chang'an day and night, asking to see the Tang Emperor Li Shimin.

He Luohu's face was tired, looking at the domineering man in front of him, he didn't dare to have any slackness, he visited Li Shimin several times, but every time his mentality was different, compared with the last time, Li Shimin's majesty was a little heavier, especially impressive, was the eyes, bright and clear, flashing with dazzling luster, like lightning, with Ruoyuan stopping Yue Zhi's physical talent and bearing, but it made people fearful.

Looking at Li Shimin, He Luohu's heart was very complicated, he knew that it was because of the planning and execution of him and Qin Feng one after another, turning the clouds and rain, and the entire grassland would be chaotic and strife. His father Khan will go to the road of confrontation with Jieli, and their tribe will have the situation they are in today.

"I've seen His Majesty the Tang Dynasty!" He Luohu was deeply moved.

Li Shimin, who was high above, snorted coldly and said, "Do you really have a face?" It is said that the grassland people are like wolves, and it is true that it is not false at all. The wolves of the mountains are none other than you. ”

He Luohu immediately weakened his knees, knelt on the ground and shouted: "Everything is my fault, I am short-sighted, and I am the one who instigated my father Khan to embarrass with the Tang Dynasty, if you want to punish me." For the sake of your majesty's alliance with my father Khan, I beg your majesty to save my father's Khan's life. ”

Li Shimin smiled coldly three times and said, "When I Li Shimin is a fool? So foolish? casually take the fault on yourself, and you want me to use the life of my Datang soldiers to help you fight for profit? Hehe, how powerful you were at the beginning, how invincible you were, even my envoys bombarded back, how did you care about this righteous feeling at that time? It's not that I, Li Shimin, don't keep my promises, but that you have broken your covenant again and again, and treat me as nothing. ”

He Luohu didn't expect that Li Shimin would refuse so thoroughly, so he could only bow to the ground again and say, "As long as Your Majesty is willing to save my father Khan, my clan, my clan is willing to pay everything for this." ”

Li Shimin thought for a long time, and said coldly: "Okay, you don't think about righteousness, but I, Li Shimin, can't do it." I can save you! In this way, you go back and ask your father Khan to move all your tribes to Shuofang, and from now on accept the control of my Datang. I don't believe it, Xiao Xiaojieli has the courage to beat me Tang Shuofang. If you don't agree, it's up to you, Xue Yantuo can save you for a while, but he can't save you for a lifetime. ”

He Luohu's kneeling body shook and slumped to the ground, his face turned pale for a moment, and all of this was understood, the cause and effect.

When he went south, he encountered the battle between Jieli and Yi Nan, who annexed part of Tuli's strength, and at first he thought that Yi Nan's stubborn resistance forced the soldiers to come to the city, and Jieli, who had won the final victory, had to stop annexing and destroying only one of them. He always thought that Yi Nan's resistance was that Jieli was chasing Yi Nan to fight, but now after Li Shimin's account, He Luohu realized that all this was not an accident, let alone a coincidence, but a deliberate arrangement.

They were wrong, and they were very wrong. They are not at all the hole cards that the Tang Dynasty specially supported to create civil strife and weaken the Turks, but a chess piece, a chess piece that can be discarded at any time.

Datang's real hole card is Yinan's Xue Yantuo, and Xue Yantuo is the sharp blade behind Datang's lurking Turks on the grassland.

The Tang Dynasty did not want to restrict the Turks and weaken them.

but to destroy them Turkic......

Datang carried Tuli on his back and secretly made eye contact with Yi Nan, just to swallow the entire Turkic ......

Now, Holohu had only two options in front of him. Either they surrendered to the Tang Dynasty and were assimilated by the extremely inclusive Han culture, and after a few decades there were no more Turks.

Or, not surrender.

If they don't surrender, their fate will be to die under the sharp soldiers......

He was convinced that as long as he did not agree to surrender, then the Yi Nan who was fighting with Jieli would definitely leave the battlefield as soon as possible, so that Jieli could aim at Tuli again.

He Luohu trembled, and when he found all this, he only felt that the chill in his heart froze his soul. With the vision of Datang...... Compared with the diplomatic tricks of the Tang Dynasty: the small tricks they use are as ridiculous and naΓ―ve as playing housework.

"From the very beginning, when you and Yi Nan were still equal allies, I said that I would let the two of you jointly manage the vast steppes of the Turks, but you don't cherish it yourself, and you can't complain about me." Li Shimin stood up, like a high mountain, Yuanyu Yuezhi, lowered his head and looked at He Luohu below: "If you don't die, you want to be born, you have no way out." At the same time, I also give you a promise, as long as you satisfy me and my ministers, I will allow you to govern the grassland with Yi Nan, impartially, and I will do what I say.
