Chapter 26: The Weishui Alliance (5)

"Bang!"

The gunshots rang out, and the big guns fell in response.

This sudden gunshot, whether it was the Tang army or the Turkic army, was shocked, especially the rear of the Turks, the mountains and forests were competing, those war horses heard the sound, and suddenly frightened their hooves. There was a flurry of confusion in the back.

No wonder the sergeants and horses were frightened, in this day and age, things made by man have never been able to make such a loud noise.

On the contrary, the cavalry troops led by Wei Chigong were calmer, because most of the war horses ridden by these cavalry were captured from the Turkic camp in the Valley of the Wind, and these horses may have experienced the movement of a thunderbolt, although they were also a little frightened at this time, but it was not serious, and the knight calmed down after a little calming down.

Looking at the Turkic Chinese army again, as soon as Jieli's Daxu fell, some Turkic soldiers immediately knelt on the ground in fright, looking at the sky and worshipping.

"The thunder of heaven has broken the Khan's great sword, and our Turkic catastrophe is coming!"

Without the Tang Army's drums, the Turks, who believed in the power of gods and demons even more, were in chaos themselves. More and more Turkic soldiers fell to the ground, muttering something incessantly. Those Turkic soldiers who did not kneel on the ground were also at a loss at this time.

Jieli himself was also frightened, he looked up at the sky, and happened to see a dark cloud above him, but elsewhere, the blue sky was still there.

Li Shimin and others were also confused by this sudden situation.

It was Fang Xuanling who reacted first, and he immediately raised his arms and shouted: "Divine thunder descends from the sky, bless me Datang, the Turks will be defeated!" ”

After getting the prompt, Cheng Yanjin and the others immediately shouted in Fang Xuanling's appearance. The Xuanjia army on the south bank of Weishui, the defenders on the city wall of Chang'an, the cavalry of Wei Chigong, and the people of Jingyang hidden in the mountains and forests also joined the shouting at this time.

"God thunder from the sky, bless me Datang, the Turks will be defeated!"

For a while, this slogan sounded at the same time before and after the Turkic array, and the Turkic soldiers who were shocked were terrified.

Zhao Yunze was also blindsided at this time, I damn it, Lao Tzu accidentally made a miracle. Alas, feudal superstition kills ...... Turkic, I like it!

Tang Jun's shouts continued, and Li Shimin was in high spirits at this time. The Turkic army on the opposite side was already like a chicken and a dog in his eyes.

As soon as Li Shimin raised his hand, Tang Jun's shouts gradually stopped.

"I am destined to return, and I have the protection of God and Buddha. You and other barbarians, going against the sky, offending the mighty gods, don't realize at this time, when will you wait? ”

Li Shimin's domineering voice sounded again. Those Turkic tribal leaders who had no intention of being enemies of the Tang Dynasty were suddenly shocked.

A Turkic leader's heart collapsed, and he jumped off his horse and knelt down looking at Li Shimin. The Turkic leader's subordinates naturally followed immediately, and they all dismounted and bowed down to Li Shimin.

With a tribe like this, there were more followers, and more and more people dismounted and knelt on the ground, and eventually, even the Tuli Khan knelt down towards Li Shimin.

Jieli's heart was like ashes at this time, he knew that the general trend had gone, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't change the final result.

However, Jieli still retained the dignity of the overlord of the grassland, he did not kneel to Li Shimin, but drove his horse out of the formation, and made a chest salute to Li Shimin on the horse, and said: "The foreign monarch Ashina is aggressive, I have to hear that the new monarch of the Tang Dynasty has ascended the throne, and I specially lead the subjects of the state to congratulate the new monarch of the Tang Dynasty!" ”

Well, Jieli is worthy of being a generation of heroes across the grassland, and the thickness of his face is really not comparable to ordinary people. He was shouting and killing before, but in a blink of an eye, he opened his mouth up and down, and he turned into bringing people to congratulate Li Shimin. The more than 100,000 Turkic soldiers with bows and knives also became humble subjects.

People who play politics should not laugh at anyone's cheekiness, and Li Shimin's cheekiness is not much thinner than Jieli's. When he saw Jieli suddenly put on such an attitude, he didn't expose it in person, but bowed to Jieli very politely: "Your help's heart, I'm ashamed to accept it." Chang'an City is cramped, and I won't invite the Khan in. ”

"The small state is narrow and the people are poor, and it is not easy to come to Datang once, please treat it considerately." Jieli said to Li Shimin again. The meaning of his words was clearly to ask Li Shimin for the cost of grinding his feet.

Li Shimin nodded and said, "I will consider it thoroughly." ”

After speaking, he turned his head again and ordered to the few courtiers behind him: "Xiao Aiqing, Gao Aiqing, you two will represent me and entertain the Turkic guests well." ”

This is the dispatch of negotiating envoys. Xiao Yu and Gao Shilian received the order.

A battle was eliminated in the conversation between Li Shimin and Jieli Khan.

After that, at Jieli's request, Li Shimin sent someone back to Chang'an City to deliver the decree and release the stubbornness. On behalf of the Turks, he negotiated with Gao Shilian and Xiao Yu in front of the two armies.

In the end, as recorded in the history books, Li Shimin and Jieli Khan made an alliance to kill white horses on the banks of the Weishui River and made an alliance under the city.

The Turks came in a hurry, and they did not go slowly. Early in the morning, Jieli soldiers came to the city, and before noon, Jieli withdrew.

The alliance under the city was no more than the usual negotiations between the two countries, and neither side was afraid of another accident, and it was concluded quickly.

As for what kind of price Datang paid behind this paper contract, it is not known to outsiders. Anyway, in the next few years, whenever Li Shimin saw the empty treasury, he couldn't wait to eat Jieli raw.

It wasn't until he watched the Turks disappear from sight that Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief. This toss, even His Majesty Li Er, who is only twenty-eight years old, is still exhausted. Behind the domineering side leaks again and again, there is the risk of death again and again.

"Captain Chi Gong knocks to see my emperor!"

Wei Chigong had been on standby, monitoring the movements of the Turks, and it was not until all the Turks had evacuated Weishui that he came to Li Shimin to meet him.

Li Shimin hurriedly stepped forward and helped Wei Chigong with both hands: "Aiqing has worked hard, thanks to you for rushing back in time." In this battle, you should be the first to take the lead. ”

"This battle is all thanks to Your Majesty's heavenly might, and he surrendered the Turks at risk, and the ministers did not dare to take credit." Wei Chigong sent a big sycophant.

"Hahaha, if it weren't for your 80,000 soldiers and horses, I wouldn't have been able to scare Jieli alone." Li Shimin laughed out loud and said very matter-of-factly.

Wei Chigong shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, who did you hear that the minister brought 80,000 soldiers and horses?" Coupled with the people of Jingyang City, the ministers only brought 30,000 people. ”

"The people of Jingyang City?" Li Shimin looked at Wei Chigong puzzled.

Wei Chigong pointed to the mountains and forests and said: "The mountains and forests are all suspicious soldiers, and the people in Jingyang City are pretending, which is Yan Liben's plan." ”

Without waiting for Li Shimin to speak, Cheng Biting Jin took a step forward and slapped Wei Chi Gong's shoulder: "Haha, Lao Hei, it turns out that you also used a suspicious strategy!" ”

Yu Chigong pushed away Cheng Biting Jin's "bear paw", and said angrily: "Say I'm black, as if you are white." ”

"Haha, at least a little whiter than you."

"Your Majesty, is there anyone else who has also used suspicious tactics?" Wei Chigong ignored Cheng Biting Jin and asked Li Shimin directly.

Li Shimin smiled bitterly, pointed to the Chang'an city wall, and said: "On this city wall, except for a thousand soldiers, the rest are Chang'an people. ”

Wei Chigong was stunned.

Leaning slightly, the monarchs and ministers present suddenly laughed together.

If Jieli knew that he was fooled by the Tang Dynasty monarchs and ministers, I don't know if he would squirt a mouthful of old blood.
