In the Iron Mountain Wasteland, the firelight had dispelled the thick fog, burning half of the sky red, and in the east, the morning light had appeared, and it was already close to dawn.

They led their army into the Turkic camp, and it had been a fierce battle for nearly an hour. The infantry corps of the Zhao army, which came from the cover-up later, also gradually approached the foot of the Iron Mountain. This infantry legion, composed of the Murwei, Khitan, and Yan tribes and the Han army's foot soldiers, the Han army marched neatly and orderly, but the various tribes attacked, but it seemed chaotic.

Li Chongjiu rode his horse and marched through the snow, and at this time, the fast horse in front of him returned one after another, telling Li Chongjiu that several Turkic camps were broken one by one. Now several generals are leading the cavalry, deep into the assault.

Several generals have already begun to congratulate Li Chongjiu. A general said: "Your Majesty, it seems that the Turks can't stand it anymore. ”

Li Chongjiu waved his hand and said: "The most elite cavalry of the Turks has not been annihilated, and it is not yet possible to say victory, the speed of this front army is still too slow. ”

Xue Wanche said with a smile: "Your Majesty is too cautious, the main Turkic force has completely collapsed, even if Jieli has a detachment cavalry, how can it reverse the tide of the war, but I didn't expect that the Turks have dominated the steppe for so many years, and it was actually broken by us in a battle, it seems that it is just a paper tiger, and we have been afraid of it for so many years." ”

Li Chongjiu looked at the flames in the distance, and said to Xue Wanche: "The Turks in Jieli are different from Chuluo, and it is expected to break through the Turks, if Jieli can reorganize 200,000 iron cavalry to fight a decisive battle with me, the outcome is still unknown, but unfortunately the Turks themselves have long been divided, and this can no longer be beaten." I have nothing to say. ”

Li Chongjiu thought that Li Tang broke the Turks, and in the first year of Zhenguan, there was still a huge disparity between the forces of the two sides. Li Shimin was forced to sign the Weishui Alliance and bow to Jieli.

But only two years later. Li Tang was defeated by the Turks. In just two years, Li Tang's national strength has not yet recovered by such leaps and bounds. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty spent his life working only to expel the Xiongnu to Mobei, and at that time, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had the accumulation of Wenjing and Jing, and defeated the Turks with the power of the Han Dynasty. Therefore, it is not so much that the Turks were defeated in the hands of Li Tang, but that it should be the internal chaos of the Turks.

And Emperor Wen of Sui also relied on the internal strife between the Eastern and Western Turks to defeat the Turks, and only then did the Great Sui Dynasty come into being.

That's when it happened. The front came and said: "Your Majesty, the front army has caught a messenger claiming to be a Turk on the way. ”

Li Chongjiu said: "Bring it up." ”

"No."

Soon the Turkic envoy came, and as soon as he saw Li Chongjiu, he said: "Emperor of the Han Dynasty, our Jieli Khan sent me to ask you to surrender last night, but I have only reached the halfway point, and your Zhao army suddenly attacked, and I beg Your Majesty to issue an order to stop the attack. Here is a handwritten letter from Jieli Khan to His Majesty. ”

Saying that, the Turkic envoy handed Jie Li's handwritten letter to Li Chongjiu.

Li Chongjiu immediately tore open the letter. I read it at the moment, and in this letter, Jieli spoke humbly and called himself a criminal minister. said that he was willing to cut off the position of Khan, become a vassal of Li Chongjiu, and lead millions of Turkic people to attach to Zhao. Driven by offering.

After Li Chongjiu finished reading the letter, he looked at the Turkic envoy's longing eyes. The other party said: "Your Majesty, please give an order immediately!" From now on, we will be your most faithful servants. ”

Listen to only two sizzles. Li Chongjiu immediately tore the letter into two paragraphs.

When the Turkic envoy saw this, he hurriedly exclaimed: "Your Majesty, why are you doing this?" ”

Li Chongjiu said: "Jieli really surrendered, I still don't agree, let alone fake surrender!" ”

The Turkic envoy was speechless with astonishment.

"I'm not going to kill you, go down! Today is the last day of the Turkic Khan's court! ”

Speaking of which, Li Chongjiu looked at the burning Turkic Khan Court in the distance.

When the Zhao army raided, Jieli did not sleep, he was worried about the envoys sent to Zhao, whether the envoy succeeded or failed, whether Li Chongjiu would agree, and he had the opportunity to delay the army. Jieli thought about it for a night, and the analysis of the gains and losses was very clear.

At this moment, there was a commotion at the foot of the mountain, and the warning of the horn broke through the silence of the night.

Jieli suddenly jumped up from the collapse, and rushed out of the tent without putting on his clothes, but when he saw the Turkic army camp under the Iron Mountain, the flames were everywhere, and countless explosions sounded!

Under the firelight, countless cavalry of the Zhao army frantically poured into the camp of the Turkic army. Countless Turkic soldiers rose up in panic to resist, but they were defeated one after another. In several large camps under the mountain, the cavalry of the Zhao army was on a rampage, and no one could stop them.

"What's going on?" Jieli was furious.

Zhao Deyan and several Turkic generals came together and said: "Khan, the Zhao army has attacked at night, and it has already broken through the outer camp. ”

Hearing this, Jieli's body was shocked, and he immediately asked, "What about the men and horses of our army?" How not to resist? ”

A Turkic general said: "Several large camps with generals in the outer periphery have been breached, and there is no way to save them, only the attached cavalry guarding the large camp of the Chinese army, and the Tutuojie army of the Shannan camp have not been attacked by the Zhao army. The rest of the departments have already been in chaos, and I don't think the vanguard of the Zhao cavalry will attack here in a while. ”

Jieli couldn't believe it when he heard it, and his main force collapsed like this.

As soon as the words fell, the sound of horses' hooves outside the big tent erupted, and then the sound of countless bowstrings collapsing!

"Khan be careful."

Several henchmen stepped forward together and pounced on Jieli.

Random arrows struck, and several Turks fell to the ground with arrows.

"Let go of me!" Jieli got up from the ground and shouted.

A Turkic general stepped forward and said: "Khan, the one who attacked my camp was Qin Qiong, the general of the Zhao army, this person is extremely brave, and the Khan should not be careless!" ”

The green tendons on Jieli's forehead burst out and said: "Listening to the sound of horses' hooves, the Zhao army is only a few hundred horsemen, you are so frightened, give the order to go down and shoot him off for me!" ”

After Jieli said this, the attached soldiers near the camp all drew their bows and fired volleys! In the darkness, there was a neighing of horses, followed by the sound of several falling horses.

In this way, the Turkic army was a little calmer.

The Turkic detachment soldiers were the elite of the cavalry in the steppe, and they could shoot arrows with bows and arrows at a distance of up to 200 paces. The cavalry of the Zhao army outside the formation obviously did not expect that the Turkic cavalry had such a strong bow, so they suffered a loss.

After repelling the Zhao army's attack on the camp.

Jieli immediately turned on his horse and shouted: "You have seen the general of the Zhao army, but that's it, we are the bravest warriors on the grassland, and now we will give the order to go down, follow me to rush and kill, and break out of the encirclement!" ”

"Yes."

The Turkic soldiers shouted in unison.

At that moment, the golden wolf Daxu moved slowly, and countless attached cavalry wearing iron armor flocked to its banner, and the 10,000 Tujie elite soldiers under the mountain on the other side had also arrived.

In addition, the two generals of the general of the special service and the Hu special service also arrived with the army and joined the division with Jieli. (To be continued......)
