Chapter Twenty-Six: Well Done!
Li Shimin looked at Jieli again, swept away the previous haze, if you dare to come today, it doesn't matter, I will be yours tomorrow, and I am more ruthless than you, Jieli, sooner or later, I will settle accounts with you!
At that moment, Li Shimin took everyone who was also in a good mood to the bridge and confronted Jieli. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 At this time, Li Jing took 5,000 foot soldiers and 5,000 cavalry to the Weishui Bridge, lined up behind everyone, and waited for the battle, giving Li Shimin some confidence.
As the emperor of the Tang Dynasty and the owner of the land under his feet, Li Shimin was the first to accuse: "Jieli, we met again, I didn't expect that meeting again would be such a scene, what about the covenant that was promised at the beginning?" Do you say it like a fart? So capricious, Jieli, what do you want to do? ”
The Turkic aristocracy yearns for a better life in the Central Plains, regards the Central Plains as a spiritual sustenance, and has been constantly imitating the customs of the Central Plains.
As the supreme ruler of the Turks, Jieli can also speak Chinese, and it is very good, almost impossible to hear any accent, to be honest, it is better than Bailiyun, who has traveled over the later generations, you know, Bailiyun has lived here for several months, but Chinese has evolved too much in thousands of years, and it is okay to write, because he learned calligraphy and traditional Chinese characters when he was a Taoist, but he has many places where oral communication is not in place, and it is limited to understanding.
Jieli was a little embarrassed to hear Li Shimin's question, after all, unilaterally tearing up the covenant was still a very unauthentic thing in ancient times, thinking of Bailiyun's dismount last night, he was a little overwhelmed, he didn't dare to be too tough, and replied with a strange face: "Li Shimin, does this matter still make sense now?" As an ally, I can only say I'm sorry, but I also have to think about my clan, please forgive me. ”
Li Shimin still has a lot of things to deal with, the imperial city is now in chaos, he is really not in the mood to have a relationship with him here, he already has a deep understanding of Jieli's face, how can he believe what he said, in the final analysis, there will always be only interests between countries, and his Turkic rush all the way into the Central Plains is also for interests, it is useless to say anything now, the Turks don't pay attention to etiquette, even if you stand in the righteousness, he doesn't care, they only believe in fists. Li Shimin knew that if it weren't for Bai Liyun, the assassin who gave Jieli a hard blow, standing beside him, and the elite soldiers and strong generals brought by Li Jing behind him, Jieli would definitely not be so polite to him.
In a cold tone, he asked proudly: "Jieli, don't talk about this nonsense without nutrition, what do you want to retire?" ”
Jieli didn't expect Li Shimin to be so tough, but what he was asking for was money, and he didn't care about it, and Li Shimin's troops were not easy to mess with in his eyes. Coupled with the indifferent and mysterious Taoist priest on the side called Bailiyun, he didn't want to say anything else, so he immediately laughed twice and said his request: "Okay, since His Majesty the Tang Dynasty is so refreshing, I won't say anything else." Let my envoys talk to you! ”
At that moment, among the Turks, an official dressed in a narrow-sleeved brocade robe came out, and Li Shimin waved his hand and called Fang Xuanling, the eldest grandson Wuji, and Gao Shilian, three civil officials, to negotiate.
At this time, Jieli looked at Bailiyun and suddenly asked, "Your Majesty of the Tang Dynasty, I don't know who Shura's ghost Bailiyun is?" Is this Taoist priest next to you? ”
Bai Liyun heard Jieli mention himself, and he didn't know why, so he glanced at him differently. Li Shimin, who was on the side, laughed and said: "Hahaha, yes, this is Bailiyun, the most powerful assassin in my Tang Dynasty!" Jieli, did you sleep well yesterday? Hahaha! ”
Jieli was a little annoyed when he heard Li Shimin's sarcasm, but thinking about Bailiyun's methods, he didn't care anymore, the grassland people respected heroes the most, and Jieli still had this point.
"Yes, it is indeed a good assassin, he can come and go freely in my army of 100,000, he is very brave, powerful, powerful, Your Majesty of the Tang Dynasty, you are blessed, the Central Plains is rich in resources, heroes are everywhere, Jieli is really envious!"
Li Shimin was very happy when he heard this, and he was envious, just your desolate and dilapidated place will not become any climate in his life, I am a big country in the Tang Dynasty, and I am not comparable to you if I come out casually. Li Shimin suddenly became a little detached.
Bailiyun listened to the two emperors talking there, and he was happy in his heart, he didn't expect that I would become the focus of attention, I really didn't live in vain, I could attract the attention of the two emperors, it was really the ancestral tomb that was smoking!
After about two hours, the Wenchen who was negotiating there also returned to Li Shimin and reported the situation.
The eldest grandson Wuji said with a gloomy face: "Your Majesty, the Turks have asked for about half of the treasury over there, what should I do?" Do you want to say yes? ”
Li Shimin's good mood disappeared all of a sudden, and he was so angry that he had just ascended the throne and lost half of the treasury, what can he do in the future? Mugwort!
Fang Xuanling persuaded on the side: "Your Majesty, if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, these things seem to be inevitable, we are too passive!" Once refused, the horseshoe of the Turks will immediately step into Chang'an, and they can only compromise! ”
Li Shimin sighed helplessly, the whole person was decadent, and said unwillingly: "Then let's do it!" Over to you! ”
Bai Liyun knew that the time had come for him to perform, and hurriedly interjected: "Your Majesty, slow down!" ”
Li Shimin saw that it was Bailiyun and asked, "What's the matter with Aiqing?" ”
Bai Liyun immediately said: "Your Majesty, there may be a turning point in this matter, and compensation is definitely inevitable, but maybe it can be reduced!" ”
Fang Xuanling and the others were shocked, Lao Cheng knew Bailiyun the best, grabbed Bailiyun and hurriedly said: "Don't sell Guanzi to the virtuous nephew, say it quickly, what's going on?" ”
Bailiyun didn't dare to stir up fire at this time, these people are all angry now! Busy explained: "That's right, I did one more thing last night! ”
The old minister Gao Shilian asked anxiously, "What's the matter?" Can you influence the terms? ”
Bai Liyun said with a smile: "I also transferred all the grain and grass of the Turks to the nearby mountains yesterday, and made some traps to defend, if Jieli does not take a step back, then let him go back hungry." He can't ignore the soldiers, what is the purpose of being a soldier, isn't it just full of food! If you don't have anything to eat, you'll be a ghost if you don't rebel! Therefore, with this as a condition, Jieli will definitely be able to compromise! ”
Qin Qiong is a veteran, of course she understands these truths, and Bai Liyun will understand it as soon as she says it. Daxi said: "Your Majesty, in this way, I will definitely be able to reduce the losses, if it weren't for the fact that Chang'an has too few troops, give me 30,000 troops, I will dare to repel the Turkic soldiers who have no food and grass support!" ”
Li Shimin is also from the military, and excitedly took Bailiyun's hand and said: "Qingyang is really my blessed general, hahaha, this thing is well done!" When I go back, I will promote you to an official! ”
Bai Liyun said with a smile: "It is the duty of a minister to share worries for Your Majesty, how dare you be greedy for merit, it is all Your Majesty's leadership!" This sycophant shot was in place, Li Shimin was even more happy, and the people around him also looked at Bailiyun with appreciation, and Lao Cheng quietly raised his big finger, making Bailiyun a little sweaty.
Sure enough, as soon as Fang Xuanling put the matter of grain and grass on the surface, Jieli immediately coaxed, and finally negotiated and recovered one-third of the loss.
