Chapter 135: Those who know the times are Junjie
(Relatives came to the house, and there was no time to code words at night, sorry!) )
He is considered to have completed the characters explained by Li Jing, and he is just waiting for Li Jing to come back and give an errand. Changsun Chong had already guessed what Li Jing wanted to do, and with enough dry food, he was ready to go to the vast grassland to give ** a complete blow and destroy **.
Jieli fled quickly, Li Jing and Su Dingfang did not find them, so they had to come back, the horses could eat the grass on the ground, but people couldn't eat grass, and the braised beef on their bodies had been eaten. Even if you can find cattle and sheep, you can't do it, and the amount of food for thousands of soldiers is not small. If you don't eat well, where will you get the strength to fight?
At this time, I received a letter of surrender from Jieli, and that kid from Jieli was not a fool, so he gave Li Jing a letter of surrender and sent another book to the capital.
Jieli Khan fled in all directions, he had never been so embarrassed, and when he escaped the encirclement and interception of Li Jing and Su Dingfang, he had a gap for respite, and he was furious and scolded: "Kang Sumi, then why don't you force to stop Batug from sending troops, if Batug has not sent troops now, now this Great Khan does not need to flee in such embarrassment." ”
Kang Sumi was so angry that he almost had his blood flowing backwards, and looked at Jieli Khan like he had eaten fly, this is the Khan he has always been loyal and respectful?
He is short-sighted and can't fully describe him, and now he has to add mediocrity and incompetence. When he was said to be on the verge of death, but Batug kept insulting him, but the Khan did not object, but was happy to see it. His opinion was not accepted, and now he is running away, and he still resents him for trying to persuade him.
Based on his understanding of the Tang and Han people, they definitely don't just have an army, presumably there are other places that don't know how many roads, like a big net that spreads out, surrounding them.
Li Shimin is eloquent and strategic, and he will never just intimidate them, but must have made complete preparations before sending troops. Last time, the Khan took advantage of the change of power in the Central Plains Tang Dynasty and approached Chang'an City, which stimulated Li Shimin, otherwise he would not have started to rectify the Turks with his hands free, which shows how much resentment the Tang Dynasty has against the Turks.
At the beginning, he vigorously objected, but Jieli Khan did not listen to him, and a few days ago, he tried to persuade him again, not only did not listen to him, but also connived at Batug to insult him in person.
The more Kang Sumi thought about it, the more he felt that it was not good, this time the Turks were in a catastrophe, he couldn't sit still, he was captured as a prisoner and took the initiative to surrender, naturally there were two kinds of treatment.
"Khan, now is not the time to hold accountable, the 40,000 soldiers and horses brought by Batug now are estimated to be gone, and what we have to do now is to wait for reinforcements." Kang Sumi said in a deep voice, he was already disappointed in Jieli Khan, and now he had a chance to move on to the next step by calming the angry Khan first.
Seeing Kang Sumi's gloomy face, Jieli Khan couldn't help but be embarrassed when he thought that he hadn't listened to Kang Sumi's advice to get to where he was today. But for a long time, he couldn't do anything to apologize to his courtiers, but said angrily: "Then what now? ”
Kang Sumi listened and said slowly: "Now what we have to do first is to connect with the reinforcements, if we still run around like now, even if there are reinforcements, then we will not be found." ”
"So you mean we're going to find reinforcements?" Jieli asked.
Kang Sumi nodded and said: "Yes, but we have thousands of people, the target is too big, and we need to act separately, so that we can not only confuse the sight of the Tang Dynasty, but also narrow the target, it is not easy to be caught, as long as we continue to go northwest, we will definitely meet our army." ”
"No way!" Jieli Khan hurriedly refused, and fled in a hurry, with these thousands of people around him, if the soldiers were divided into several ways, once they encountered the Tang army, they would only be tied up and captured. Now there is no division of troops, if he encounters the Tang army, these people can still protect him, and he can always escape successfully.
However, Jieli Khan also knew that if he didn't find reinforcements as soon as possible, he would only be captured in the end, and these thousands of people could help him escape once, twice, but three times would be difficult, so it was still necessary to divide his troops and go all the way.
"A thousand ······ for you 500······ Three hundred people, Kang Sumi, you take these three hundred people to find reinforcements as soon as possible, and set off immediately! "Jieli Khan was afraid of death, so he kept changing his words, and only gave Kang Sumi 300 men.
Kang Sumi sneered in his heart, three hundred people, once he meets the Tang Army, he will only be captured, you are unkind, I am unjust, after so many years of saddle before and after the horse, he has been loyal, but he was still trampled under the feet of Batuge.
"Is 300 people ······" Kang Sumi tried to fight for it, but he was just putting on a show.
As soon as Jieli Khan heard that Kang Sumi was suspicious, he immediately made a cold face and said, "Three hundred people is not a lot, did you let Ben Da Khan be captured by the Tang army?" At that time, the Turks will really be powerless. ”
Kang Sumi lowered his head and scolded in his heart: "In fact, even if there are tens of thousands of people, you will still be captured by the Tang army, and you will still be powerless to return to the sky." ”
The person who knows the times is Junjie, Kang Sumi has already thought about what to do, since he wants to surrender to Cheng, then he must have the sincerity of Surrender, and he grabbed Jieli and handed it over to Datang, he can't do it, after all, there are still many unyielding warriors around Jieli, maybe Jieli is not tied up, and he was cut by Jieli first.
He had no way to capture Jieli Khan, so he started from elsewhere, by the way, Empress Xiao, Yang Zhengdao, and Princess Yicheng, who defected from the former Sui, brought these people to Toucheng, presumably Datang could see his sincerity.
Thinking of this, Kang Sumi felt that it might not be a bad thing to have fewer people, and said in a deep voice: "Khan, his subordinates have received orders, and they must desperately find reinforcements and respond to the Khan!" ”
Seeing that Kang Sumi was as respectful and obedient as ever, Jieli Khan was slightly relieved, and only Kang Sumi could represent him, walked up to Kang Sumi, and said, "Whether our Turks can survive the difficult time depends on you. After this escape, you will be the number one hero. ”
Kang Sumi made a panicked expression, and said humbly: "It's really Kang Sumi's duty!" ”
Kang Sumi had a ghost in his heart and took three hundred people to find the so-called reinforcements. This time, he was destined not to return, Kang Sumi did not look for any reinforcements at all, but went directly to the mountains not far from Dingxiang.
There are about two hundred people here, and the former Empress Xiao of Sui and Yang Zhengdao are locked up, as long as these two people are caught, it can be regarded as sincerity. That place is very remote, called protection, but in fact, it is detained, and they are used to dominate the exiled people of the former Sui.
Kang Sumi hurried overnight, and early the next morning, he arrived at the place where Empress Xiao and Yang Zhengdao were being held. The reason why Li Jing couldn't find it was because Kang Sumi had found out that Empress Xiao had secretly contacted Datang before, so he changed them to this secret place, but he didn't expect it to come in handy today.
To say that the former Empress Sui Xiao, although she is close to sixty years old, she still looks firm, bright and moving, and makes people feel refreshed. Kang Sumi also had the idea of occupying Empress Xiao before, but he didn't dare to compete with Jieli Khan, so he could only secretly make up his mind behind his back.
Yang Zhengdao, the former widow of the Sui Dynasty, Kang Sumi is not afraid, but he is afraid of Xiao Yu, the younger brother of Empress Xiao, although Xiao Yu is the brother-in-law of Emperor Yang of Sui, but now he is Li Shimin's personal fiefdom of Song Guogong, the official residence of Shangshu Zuo Servant, is an important figure in the power center of the Tang Dynasty.
The mind of lightly occupying Empress Xiao can only take a break, and she can't afford to offend high-ranking officials in the Tang Dynasty.
"I haven't seen it for a long time, but Queen Xiao's appearance is still the same." When Kang Sumi saw Empress Xiao, she said respectfully, as if this woman had seen her for the first time twelve years ago, and it seemed that she had never changed until now. But no matter how tempting it is, it has nothing to do with him, from now on he has a good relationship with Queen Xiao, and there is no more coveting in his eyes, only respect.
Empress Xiao saw that Kang Sumi was so respectful, not as frivolous as when she faced her alone before, but more respectful, and her heart was overturned; Looking at Kang Sumi's slightly messy hair and clothes, he has already guessed probably.
"The Tang army has already occupied Dingxiang?" Empress Xiao has experienced so much, after Emperor Yang was killed, she took her young grandson and the daughters of the royal family, and successively lived in the rebel Yu Culture and Dou Jiande, and Princess Yicheng welcomed her to **. There was too much suffering and tears in the meantime, and I had already trained a pair of eyes that saw everything.
Kang Sumi's face was embarrassed, and he said, "Yes, the khan fled west in a hurry!" ”
"Well, then I'll let Zhengdao pack up his things, and we'll go back to Dingxiang City!" Empress Xiao said softly, smiling, it was a quiet smile of returning to her hometown.
Kang Sumi bowed again, saluted Empress Xiao according to the etiquette of the Han people, and said, "Yes, Empress Xiao!" Can you see that I will treat your ancestors and grandchildren well, and when I get to Datang, I will give Kang Sumi a way to live? ”
Empress Xiao looked at Kang Sumi clearly, since she came to Turkic, although Kang Sumi also had ill intentions towards her, he never really violated her in the end, and he had been secretly helping her solve some difficulties.
"Since Master Kang has surrendered to Datang, Datang will not kill you, you can rest assured of this. As for me here, I'm just a former queen of the Sui Dynasty, and I can't embarrass you for anything, you can rest assured of this. Empress Xiao said softly, her voice was far away, looking into the distance.
Kang Sumi looked at the peerless Empress Xiao, such a legendary woman, he couldn't have it, it was a pity, but as long as she could enjoy her old age, he would be happy for her.
"How did Empress Xiao know that I would surrender?" Kang Sumi asked puzzled, neither he nor his subordinates said that they wanted to surrender to Datang, but Empress Xiao did guess.
Empress Xiao Wan'er, the country and the city, although she was dressed very plainly, she still couldn't hide her glamorous appearance, and said softly: "Because Lord Kang is a smart person!" ”
"Hehe," Kang Sumi smirked, "Go on!" ”
"Now that Jieli Khan has fled westward, and I are here in two diametrically opposite directions, our ancestors and grandchildren are not important enough to turn back and respond; If Lord Kang is looking for reinforcements, then he will not come to me, plus Lord Kang, who has always paid attention to appearance, is a little embarrassed today, and the only thing left may be that Lord Kang wants to surrender! ”
"What else?"
Empress Xiao raised her eyes slightly, looked at the sky, and muttered: "Li Shimin is a man of great talent, he can endure the shame of Weishui, and he will be killed with one blow." This time the troops must have been fully prepared, so the defeat of the Turks was a foregone conclusion. is still the same sentence, Kang is a smart person, and those who know the times are junjie! ”
