Early the next morning, the nobles of the Turkic tribes went to the king's tent to meet each other, and Mo Si was ready to retire. Up to now, the places near Yinshan have been robbed by them, there is not much oil and water, if you want to expand the income, you must first uproot the three cities, if you can do it, then the entire Hetao area can not escape the ravages of the Turkic soldiers...... Unfortunately, it is almost impossible to destroy the three important towns.

The strategy of abandoning Anbei Town has reached a consensus, but some nobles are not satisfied with the "harvest", so they said in front of Mo Si: "We gathered many tribes to form a large army, and the first batch of grain and grass obtained from Zhang Renyuan plus the income from this plunder is not enough for the army to consume, and this trip is a loss-making transaction." ”

Someone else chimed in: "Since we have all assembled our men and horses, and we have torn up with the Tang Dynasty again, we will not do anything, it is better to go east, and attack a few states and counties on the Hebei Road, maybe we can gain more." ”

Just when everyone was talking, they suddenly reported: "The three cities have sent Tang envoys here." ”

The generals began to talk again, "They sent people to threaten us? "If the words are not speculative, the matter is cut."

Mo Si poked his scepter on the ground and said quietly, "Call in first and hear what they have to say." ”

…… A small group of people came from the Tang Dynasty, and the envoy was a civil official, an officer in the Guanzhong Army, named He Xu. The other dozen or so people are martial artists, and they should be the guards responsible for road safety, and the general who led the army was a Guanzhong military captain named Li Chu.

They were discovered by the Turkic scouts and taken outside the camp of the Turkic army, where they were told that the guards were not allowed to enter, and finally only the civil official He Xu and the lieutenant Li Chuwei were allowed to enter to meet the Turkic Khan.

Both of them looked to be less than thirty years old, and the people who worked around Xue Chongxun seemed to be relatively young.

Captain Li Chu's temper didn't seem to be very good, and when the Turkic soldiers were about to come up to hand over his saber, this guy suddenly pressed on the scabbard with a "snap", which startled the two Turkic soldiers who came up. The surrounding Turks immediately drew their scimitars, and the atmosphere was tense all at once.

He Xu hurriedly said: "First policeman, stop!" We are envoys, why are we here? ”

Li Chu untied his saber and said, "I'll hand it over myself." Only when he was disarmed did the Turks put their knives back and watched them warily.

Fortunately, the royal tent of the Mosi Khan ordered to see these two people, and He Xu still had the official festival of the Tang Dynasty in his hand, and the Turks were not too rude.

The large camp where the Turkic king's tent was located was wide, and the two men were allowed to cavalry, but they were surrounded by a group of heavily armed men, and they were not allowed to move.

After walking for a while, he suddenly saw Captain Li's murderous face with anger, and He Xu followed his gaze...... I saw an inhuman scene on the grass not far away. Some naked female corpses were tied to wooden stakes and drooping their heads, apparently frozen to death, and there were still some partially charred female corpses lying on the ground, all of which were uninchable; At a distance, there were still the corpses of many men in Hanfu, and the dead people had their hands tied behind their backs, and their bodies were full of arrows. He Xu and the others could figure out with their toes that these dead corpses must be Han people who were caught.

At this time, it was still morning, and the messy scene after those Turks desperately tossed last night had not yet had time to clean up, but they happened to be seen by the Tang envoy.

Captain Li gritted his teeth and scolded: "Discuss his mother's peace!" ”

He Xu hurriedly persuaded: "Your temper should be changed, be cautious, don't forget where we are now!" It's useful to be angry, what do you want us officials and you soldiers to do? Moreover, Shangfeng has its own considerations, and the overall situation is the most important. The King of Jin is by no means a person who is soft, and if he wants to negotiate peace, there must be a reason. Even now, many people in the government and the opposition have said that he is reckless. We just need to do our part. ”

Captain Li sneered: "Brother He is not surprised, admire and admire. ”

He Xu Zhengse said: "What is this dead person, the three cities have not been broken yet, how many people can die?" When I was a judge in Hebei Province, the state government was attacked by the northern barbarians, and 30,000 or 40,000 people were plundered at one time, and the dead were all over the city, the countryside, and the mountains...... The scene you see now is not even comparable to the slaughter of a village. ”

Lieutenant Li said: "I really should let the brothers in the army see it with their own eyes, and only then will I know how to kill these dogs when I go to the battlefield." ”

He Xu said uneasily: "The Turks here may not understand Chinese, you have nothing to say these words now, and after a while, when you enter the king's tent, you will stand and don't speak!" I'm the messenger, let me talk! Don't mess up the business, it won't help, use your brains more What can we do in the enemy camp, you don't want to go to the battlefield to fight, there is no need to be able to do it in this kind of place. ”

The two were escorted away for a while, and finally came to a tent that was taller than the surrounding felt tents, apparently having arrived. The Turks who sent them in to report, and after a while, He Xu was pushed, and the two went inside.

When I entered the king's tent, I saw a group of people sitting on the left and right, all of them staring at them, their eyes were very unfriendly, and they seemed to be cut into pulp at any moment. He Xu tightly held the battle with the word "Datang" written in his hand, straightened his back and walked in with his head held high, not happy or slow, his expression was calm, which was very different from Fang Cai's peaceful and elegant demeanor. Captain Li, who was walking behind him, saw this scene and He Xu's appearance, and admired the attitude of this civil official a little more.

"He Xu, the envoy of the King of the Tang Dynasty and Jin, visited the Khan." He Xu owed slightly, and said in a straight voice.

Suddenly, a Turkic shouted in Chinese: "You Han people don't understand how to be inferior and inferior? Get down on your knees and speak! ”

He Xu looked straight at the past: "The Khan is a minister of the Tang Dynasty, and I am an envoy of the Tang Dynasty, why do you want to kneel!?" ”

The Turk got up angrily, and then Mo Si raised his arm and waved it lightly, and the man sat down in anger. Mo sobbed: "Yesterday I fought with the King of Jin, and today the King of Jin sent you, what are you for?" ”

"Negotiate peace." He Xu was very calm when he said this.

Mo Si immediately looked at his subordinates, and after a while, everyone burst into laughter.

He Xu said: "The king of Jin is willing to reconcile with the Khan, and repair the misunderstanding caused before, as long as the conditions are right, we are very sincere; But if the Khan thinks that he can be the enemy of my Tang Empire, it is meaningless to make peace, and he has to divide the victory and defeat, then the King of Jin can only accompany him to the end. ”

"It's not a bad thing to be reconciled......," Mo smirked, "but a few years ago, the Tang Dynasty promised to marry Princess Jinshan to my Turkic Khanate, why hasn't it been fulfilled yet?" ”

He Xu said angrily: "Princess Jinshan has already changed the title of Princess Yuyao to Princess Jin, wouldn't it be humiliating for the Khan to entangle this matter again?" In this case, please take the soup wok, and the prince of Jin will lead the army to meet with the khan on another day! ”

"What is Tang in a hurry?" Mo Siyin smiled, "Obviously, Ben Khan was wronged and humiliated, look at what you said as if the King of Jin was wronged, then Princess Jinshan obviously agreed to marry Ben Khan first, and the King of Jin killed his father and uncle in the middle of the road, and robbed the woman, and he was very aggrieved after doing these things...... "G."
