The biggest concern lies in the authenticity of Tuli's words, if there is a falsehood, once you step into it, the result will inevitably be a catastrophe.

According to the previous agreement, Tu Lishu would send people to escort Xie Yi and Di Zhixun along the path, avoiding the pursuit of the Xue Yantuo people and the Nangui Yin Mountain and the Yellow River.

Now that the escort guide is here, Xie Yi doesn't dare to leave.

If the so-called guidance and escort are tricks and traps, I am afraid that I and Di Zhixon will not have a chance to go home at all, and will only be left in the wilderness, and even no bones remain.

If he is killed by the Xue Yantuo people on the grassland, or encounters any danger when he escapes on his own, in case of misfortune, he will at least sacrifice his life for the country and be regarded as a martyr.

But if you don't know if you don't know how to die outside, then it's not necessarily. After all, there is now a suspicion of abandoning the entourage of the mission and fleeing alone, whether it is slandered by the people of Xue Yantuo or criticized by the people in the Tang Dynasty in the future, it will be very detrimental to the reputation.

When a person dies, he has to bear infamy, and that is the saddest thing.

Even if Xie Yi doesn't care, he has to think about his wife and young sister at home. When an ordinary Tang soldier dies, his family will receive a lot of pension subsidies, not to mention an earl. Moreover, after all, there is Di Zhixun who is also there, and he obviously cares more about the "posthumous name" and the aftermath of the matter.

Of course, these are things to consider as a last resort.

At this moment, the first thing to consider is how to escape from this place of right and wrong, and it is better to return alive than anything else.

But a person who loses a sudden profit can't believe it, whether he is false or sincere, he can't believe it, even if he ends up being criticized for not knowing the hearts of good people.

In particular, the envoy of this small Khan of Tuli lost his life constantly "urging", which was a little abnormal.

So......

After thinking about it, Xie Yi made a look, and Xue Yan immediately made a move. The messenger ...... It's not okay to be stunned, so it's a pity that I can only let him lose his life, and the same treatment is given to his companions.

"Di Shilang, I'm sorry, Xue Yantuo can't be trusted, we can only figure out our own way.

Di Zhixun shook his head and said, "I'm too worried." What you did was right, all we wanted was this opportunity to escape from the sight of the Xue Yantuo people. As for the loss of profits...... In the end, it is not my race, and you should not be gullible. ”

Xie Yi was quite fortunate to have such a reasonable and easy colleague to get along with, and immediately nodded and said: "The next few days may not be easy, and I hope that Di Shilang will forgive me, and I am also mentally prepared." ”

Di Zhixon smiled: "It's just a little harder, although I'm a little older." But this little bit of bitterness can still be eaten. ”

"Alright, let's go." Xie Yi turned around and said, "Yebei, there are some things that have to trouble you." ”

"It's a matter of duty, but please rest assured." Immediately, some people put on Xie Yi and Di Zhixun's clothes and fled far to the east.

Therefore, it is very necessary to set up a suspicious array, and only by luring away Xue Yantuo's pursuers and confusing them can there be a chance to escape.

At this point. Xie Yi didn't dare to be ambiguous at all!

Fortunately, there is such a master as Yebei who is good at tracking, and he naturally has the ability to do his homework in anti-tracking.

Except that someone pretended to be Xie Yi and Di Zhixon to lure away the pursuers. The traces of their actions along the way will also be erased as much as possible, reducing the possibility of being discovered by the Xue Yantuo people and being tracked by the Ouroboros.

Di Zhixun was a little worried: "Xiaoyao, will it be dangerous for this subordinate of yours to go down to lead away the pursuers?" ”

"Don't worry, as long as you lead away the pursuers, they will immediately return to their original colors. Hidden among the herdsmen and merchants, it will not be easily discovered. ”

Hearing Yebei's words, Di Zhixun relaxed slightly, but Xie Yi looked up at the distant back, and his heart was also a little worried.

Yebei said it very lightly. But his expression was quite nervous, and it was clear that this matter was not so simple. If it is a city and countryside in the Central Plains, it is fine, but there are many empty spaces on the grassland, and it is not so easy to hide.

In the same way, it is not easy for people in their own group to hide their tracks, and there is always the possibility of being discovered. In order to buy time for themselves, those who pretend to be must work harder and take more risks.

So......

For a while, Xie Yi didn't know what to say, and he was a little panicked for no reason. I hope they can go back safely, as long as they return to Chang'an, they will not be treated badly, with such subordinates, it is really a blessing from the cultivation of three lives, which is precious.

Without much delay, Xie Yi and Di Zhixun immediately set off, and soon disappeared into the vast mountains, disappearing without a trace.

……

A few hours after Xie Yi and the others disappeared, the Xue Yantuo people finally discovered the anomaly.

The first thing that noticed the abnormality was a team that was supposed to ambush the envoys of the Tang Dynasty, and they waited for a long time at the predetermined location, but they did not find any trace of the waiting target.

Then he reported the sweat tent in time, which was naturally a series of investigations, so he found those subordinates who were knocked out and killed, and the subordinates who lost their lives.

When he saw this situation, Tu Li's face changed! How can the current situation be explained?

There is no doubt that at this moment, there is no need for him to hide his true face, he has indeed deceived Xie Yi and Di Zhixun.

But......

It doesn't seem to work out!

If there is a reasonable explanation for the current situation, the most appropriate thing is that the Datang people have seen through their true colors, and they have never believed in themselves, let alone fled according to their own arrangements.

Of course, there is another possibility.

Maybe something happened, something happened, someone killed his own people and robbed the envoys of the Tang Dynasty. But on the ground of Xue Yantuo, this possibility is very small.

So, the first and only reasonable explanation.

Xie Yi did what he planned, and deceived himself in turn, thinking that he could let the Tang people enter the palace, but in the end, he was deceived.

For a while, Tu Li couldn't help but be a little depressed.

But after a moment, he felt that it didn't matter, even if he saw through his plan, what could he do? But for a few hours, Xie Yi and Di Zhixun were still on Xue Yantuo's ground, could they still fly?

As long as you stop them before escaping from Xue Yantuo, everything is easy to say, and there is no big problem.

"Father Khan, Hulu Little Khan, don't worry. The sweat tent is far away from the border of the Tang Dynasty, and it is not easy to escape, so it should be too late to send troops and horses to search immediately. ”

The Turks broke their promises and swore to Yi Nan and Hu Lu of the Western Turks, but the original Dadu, who was in the limelight, disappeared.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Hu Lu was disappointed. But at least it's stable. But Yi Nan's expression was not very good-looking, he was already nervous about making this decision, but now there was an accident, and things did not happen according to his expectations and control, which is really not a good sign.

But the arrow is off the string, and there is no room for repentance and retreat, is it ......

The little Khan of Hulu on the side hurriedly said: "Zhenzhu Khan, the matter has come to this point, you can't be half-hearted, otherwise it will only get worse." Please also be enlightened. If you want to be safe, you might as well prepare early, and send Dadu to set up a prince to go south to prepare earlier. ”

"Generous?" Yi Nan whispered his son's name, his expression suddenly a little confused, but the corners of Tu Li's mouth showed a smug smile.

However, in everything, there is a problem that is to catch the envoys of the Tang Dynasty, otherwise everything will be in vain.

……

the "search and rescue" against the envoys of the Tang Dynasty; Immediately unfolded, perhaps just in case. Maybe it's because I have some apprehension in my heart. At the current stage, Xue Yantuo did not dare to openly declare his opposition to the Tang Dynasty. He didn't dare to blatantly pursue and murder the envoys of the Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, the theory given to the outside world is that when he went into the mountains to hunt, the envoys of the Tang Dynasty got lost or were murdered and disappeared temporarily.

Upon learning of this news, Sun Wukai, the captain of Zhaowu who stayed in Xue Yantuo's tent, immediately lodged a solemn protest with Zhenzhu Khan, demanding that he be searched and rescued as soon as possible. If the envoys of the Tang Dynasty had a mistake in Xue Yantuo, they would not be able to bear the responsibility.

Since you want to pretend, you must pretend to be, although there is no bottom in your heart, Sun Wukai still showed the courage to train in Jiucheng Palace. It shows the heroism and might of an envoy of the kingdom.

He knew better than anyone what was going on, and when Xie Yi and Di Zhixon found him and offered to leave, he knew that there would be a current situation.

Although it seemed that the two envoys' methods were not authentic, after listening to the analysis in detail and understanding the situation, Sun Wukai accepted it. He knew very well that according to the current situation, it would be difficult for everyone to retreat, so it was better to find a way to let the two envoys go first.

After all, Xie Yi and Di Zhixun have valuable statuses, and they have a heavy responsibility, at least to pass on the information from Xue Yantuo's side. And after the two of them left, it might be safer for themselves and the rest of the soldiers to be here.

Before this, Sun Wukai was not sure that this would be the case, but thinking that he could not do the task of protecting the two envoys, it was somewhat dereliction of duty.

Therefore, in the face of such a crisis in front of him, it is natural that he should make some sacrifices, even if he was cheated by Bachelor Xie and Di Shilang, he was willing. As long as they return to Chang'an and treat their parents and family well, their sacrifice will be in vain. The only pity is that the daughter-in-law has not yet passed the door for the marriage that has just been engaged, and she has not left a seed for the old grandson's family......

However, judging from the situation just now, maybe it was really as expected by Master Xie and Di Shilang, and he was safe for the time being. So as long as you can go back safely this time, you have made a great contribution, and the two adults have to be grateful and compensate for their debts, so that their future is unlimited, and the old Sun family may be soaring.

As soon as he thought of this, Sun Wukai was extremely confident in front of Xue Yantuo!

……

In the eyes of Xue Yantuo, Sun Wukai's reaction belongs to the outside strong and the middle, or ......

According to his usual thoughts, Tu Lishu thought that maybe Xie Yi and Di Zhixon had deceived the young military general and sneaked away. Poor Sun Wukai may not know that he was cheated by his superiors until now.

It doesn't matter who is right anymore!

The key is to find someone, Xie Yi and Di Zhixun seem to have sunk into the sea and disappeared from the grassland, which is the most terrible thing.

If you go to war directly with Datang now, it may not matter whether you find someone or not, but Daddy Yi Nan has always had concerns and is not strong-willed, what can you do?

In particular, the disappearance of Xie Yi and Di Zhixon made him suspicious and undecided, which was naturally impossible to raise troops.

Therefore, the top priority is to find Xie Yi and Di Zhixun subtlely, according to Daddy Yinan's idea, so that they can attack and retreat. If you want to raise troops against the Tang Dynasty, you can stick to the original plan; If you don't oppose it, just publicize it according to the current disappearance.

In such a situation, Tu Li lost a lot of helplessness, busy chasing Xie Yi and Di Zhixun again, and busy with Hu Lu Xiao Khan frequently and secretly, obviously discussing something secretly.

On the reckless grassland, it is difficult to find a few people, but it is also easy.

The difficulty is that the territory is vast, I don't know the specific route and location, and trying to find a few people is equivalent to looking for a needle in a haystack; It is easy to say that it is because it is the Tang people who found it, and there is obvious surprise with the grassland people, and they are going to the south, and in autumn and winter, they will all go to the wasteland, which is to send them to death, and they will inevitably pass through a populated place.

As long as they show up, they will leave traces, and they will be discovered, and there is plenty of time to intercept them thousands of miles from Xue Yantuo's tent to the border of the Tang Dynasty.

After using a lot of Xue Yantuo's strength, they finally got some feedback, and they got the news that there was a team with obvious traces of Tang people heading to the east.

Orient?

Tu Lishu thought it was a little strange at first, but after thinking of the many strategies of the Han people, it was no longer strange, and it was very possible to take a detour.

After all, Xue Yantuo's large number of search forces were placed in the south, and as a result, he was exploited, and it seems that this Tang envoy is really smart.

Want to turn south towards the east and enter Youzhou and Merge State? Hmph, think beautifully, how can you make you do this.

Therefore, Tu Lisu immediately sent his henchmen to chase after him to the east, and the search in the south naturally relaxed his vigilance.

Xue Yantuo's efficiency was good, and Tu Li's henchmen quickly rushed to the place where the traces of the Tang people were found, and then chased after him, and then he really found something.

They were sure that these things were Tang people, and they matched the characteristics of the Tang envoys described by the prince, so they immediately reported the news to the Khan Tent and tried to intercept them.

It would have been easy for them to stop a scattered caravan with their forces, but when they started, they suddenly came out of nowhere and kept the men. There was no flag, no identity, and it was a sudden attack, which immediately killed Xue Yantuo's pursuers.

By the time they reacted and received help to gain a foothold, the mysterious team had lost a trace. What's even worse is that those Datang people have completely disappeared.

After receiving the news, Tu Liyu suddenly burst into a rage, he was very curious about who saved Tang Envoy, but he had no clue about the detailed investigation. There were suspicions, but there was no evidence, so much so that it became an unsolved case, and the mystery was solved many years later.

Worse still, they completely lost the traces of Xie Yi and Di Zhixon. Tu Lishu suddenly had a feeling that perhaps there would be no trace of the Tang envoys in the vast grassland...... (To be continued......)
