As for how to deal with the wooden pole khan, Li Tai also weighed it and finally decided to execute him.

Escorting the wooden pole Khan back to Chang'an, like his descendant Jieli Khan in history, although it sounds quite emotional, but the background situation is different, and it is not easy to follow it directly.

Historically, the interaction between the Tang Dynasty and DTZ has gone through nearly a hundred years of conflicts and run-ins from the Western Wei Dynasty, the Northern Zhou Dynasty to the Sui and Tang Dynasties, forming a certain origin and tradition. Moreover, although the DTZ at that time was destroyed, it still needed to borrow its remnants to balance the forces such as the Xue Yantuo Khanate, which rose in Mobei one after another.

There is another important point, that is, the strength of the Tang Dynasty at that time was far from being comparable to the current Western Wei court. Li Tai's raid was successful, although it was also a gratifying result, but it is still difficult to compare with the significance of the Tang Dynasty's defeat of DTZ in history.

The depth of the water in Mobei is not something he can handle casually after his victory. Not to mention that they are in the Western Wei Dynasty, even if it is Gao Yang, the lord of Qi who has been ravaging the Quartet in the past few years, it is difficult to exert sustained and effective influence and control, and after they are done, they will return to gather the people to build the Great Wall.

Leniency and tolerance are the power that only the strong have, and for Li Tai, the purpose of his war is to inflict the greatest deterrent on the Turks through this battle.

How many soldiers killed him, how many cattle and horses he took away, in the final analysis, is not a punishment imposed on the people in power themselves, even if there will be a moment of misery, but as long as you slow down a little, it will not be long before you will relapse into the old ways.

For example, those gamblers, even if they lose their money and cry bitterly at the gambling table, all they lose is their money. Once you get a certain amount of money through other means, you will often be impatient and want to try to turn it over.

Of course, it is not excluded that the gambler will change his mind and no longer be involved in gambling, but the idea of pinning his hopes on the gambler's self-discipline is itself negative.

The problem now is that Li Tai, as the other side of the bet, does not want to participate in such a gamble, even if he takes the initiative this time, he is actually forced. And if you want to reduce the probability of similar things happening in the future, you have to raise the price of this gamble, after Lao Tzu wins, you will not only ask for your chips, but also your life!

Only when this knife is really cut down, when the subsequent Turkic decision-makers decide to continue to be the enemy of the Western Wei Dynasty, will they also consider their own lives and safety, instead of the so-called winning the clubhouse and losing the sea to work. If you want to play, you can, then you have to play with your life!

This incident will also be a turning point and a new beginning in the relationship and interaction between the Western Wei and the Turks.

Putting aside Li Tai's personal considerations for the time being, the Turkic magnates present were all shocked for a while after hearing his threatening words, and their reactions were different. Some people looked indignant and angry, while others were frightened and frightened, and their faces were pale.

The wooden pole Khan had already been abused a lot by the soldiers of the Western Wei Dynasty, and at this time, when he heard Li Tai shouting and shouting at him, he was also furious, glaring and shouting: "I am the Turkic Khan, the son of the steppe, you are a subordinate of the Wei State, dare to harm me!"

Li Tai didn't bother to respond to the roar of the wooden pole khan, but just waved his hand, and ordered his soldiers to step forward and lead him to another tent and take him into custody for the time being.

As the Wooden Pole Khan was forcibly dragged away, the atmosphere in the tent became even more dreary and oppressive.

After a while, the head of the land, Ashinaku, who was captured by Wu Mingche's troops, knelt on the ground and whispered to Li Tai: "Our country is indeed guilty of entering the Le River this time, but the Khan is the supreme of the Khanate, the monarch of the steppe who is looked up to by all the people, and he cannot be punished! I am also a descendant of Ashina and the Khan of the East, and I am willing to be punished on behalf of the Khan to dispel the anger of the Duke of Tang, and I implore the Duke of Tang to forgive the Khan! The Ashina clan will worship the Great Wei and the Tang Gong for generations, and they will not dare to disobey the order again!"

As the Khan of the Land Ruler spoke out, the other Turkic magnates also grabbed the land with their heads again, begging for mercy from their Khan.

Li Tai looked at the head Khan who was sad and sincere and eager to die on behalf of his brother, and only sneered twice in his heart. This guy looks obedient and pitiful now, but it's not a good thing in itself, and in history, the Khan passed the Khan throne to him after his death, and it was this guy who was arrogant

The Northern Zhou and Northern Qi are called the two good ones in the south.

However, people's temperament is also closely related to their personal experience and situation, at least at the moment, Ashina Kutou, who has become a prisoner and can only cry and beg for his brother to die, does not dare to recognize his eldest son casually.

Although Li Tai didn't have much interest in this guy in his heart, after hearing his statement, he still got up and walked down from the table to pull him up, and patted him on the shoulder and exclaimed, "Ili Khan still has such a righteous son, how can he say that he has no tutor? The arrogance and arrogance of the wooden pole Khan and the betrayal of the alliance seem to be only the result of his despicable nature! If I come here to fight evil, and if I do harm to the righteous and condone the unrighteous, will I not be ashamed of the world?"

Speaking of this, he looked down at the Turkic magnates and said in a deep voice: "The son of a family has a good and bad temperament, which is as clear as black and white! You and the rest of the disciples assisted the two generations of male lords of Yili Khan and Yixiji Khan, but now you let the unrighteous dominate the top, and the Taoist bow down to the bottom, and you are really dumbfounded! This calamity is also a warning from heaven to you!"

While speaking, Li Tai even took Ashinaku's arm, led him to the guest seat in the tent, and motioned for him to sit down. Seeing this, Ku Tou was shocked, and seeing that Li Tai's face was already showing impatience, he hurriedly thanked him, and then sat down worriedly.

Li Tai no longer continued to talk about the disposition of the wooden pole khan, but pointed to Kutou and said to the Turks: "The Khan of the land control is also the son of the Ili Khan, and he is the best choice to inherit the deeds of the Ili Khan. Even I, an outsider, have seen this, so can you and the Turkic masses see nothing?"

As soon as these words came out, all the Turkic disciples present showed shocked faces, and the Ashina Kutou was also busy avoiding the table, waving his hand again and again: "The order of the Khan has already been decided, and the Kutou really doesn't dare to rush to the ......."

Li Tai ignored Kutou's argument, but raised his hand and pointed to a Turkic Hu chief who held the position of Jielifa and asked, "Do you think what I said is reasonable?"

"The Khan of Wood and Wood Pole was ordered to remember the Khan ......"

Under Li Tai's questioning, the Jie Lifa said stubbornly, and seeing that Li Tai's face sank sharply, he quickly added: "The Khan of the Land Control is also the younger brother of the Khan of Yixiji, of course, of course, he can succeed him!"

As Li Tai's gaze swept over the faces of all the Turkic chieftains in the tent, these people also spoke out hard, and most of them echoed his words, believing that Kutou could succeed the Khan.

Of course, there are also people who are full of voices and say that the wooden pole Khan is what everyone wants, and others have no right to put their beaks, and some people just bow their heads and are silent, refusing to speak out. And for these two types of people, Li Tai also waved his hand and motioned for the soldiers to drag them away.

In the end, there were nearly 400 Turkic chieftains in the tent, and nearly 300 of them expressed their approval of Kutou as Khan, and more than 100 members refused to bow their heads and obey, and Li Tai was not used to it, so he directly dragged him out and imprisoned him with the wooden pole Khan first.

"The wishes of the masses are like this, and the Khan of the land control must not disobey the wishes of the people, right?"

After all these Turkic magnates finished speaking, Li Tai turned his head to look at the Kutou who had changed color several times and was in a tangled mood and said with a smile.

Ku Tou watched the group of disciples in the tent express their positions one by one, and his inner emotions were up and down, he hadn't thought about this problem at all before, and at the beginning he stood up and hoped that his brother would die, but at this point, the thoughts in his mind were already chaotic.

Li Tai looked at this guy's entangled face, but he was not too pressing, just looked at him and waited patiently for him to speak.

After a long while, Kutou spoke again and said in a silent voice, "These are not the only powerful men in charge of the subordinates in the country...... My father and other sons, as well as Mohelu Yehu, etc., may not approve of this."

Some things are not afraid that you will win, but I am afraid that you will not play, as long as you are moved, everything will be easy to do in the future, anyway, these are not Lao Tzu's problems!

Therefore, after hearing Ku Tou's speech, Li Tai laughed again, raised his hand to summon the pro-soldiers and whispered advice, and then the pro-soldiers hurried out. Soon there was a commotion of people in the side tent, and after a while, two armor soldiers returned to the tent with a bloody head, which was none other than the Khan of the Wooden Pole.

"Khan......

Everyone in the tent exclaimed in surprise when they saw this scene, and Nakutou's face suddenly became sad and panicked, but when the exclamation surged to his throat and was swallowed back by him, his dazed eyes were churning with all kinds of complicated emotions.

Li Tai glanced at the head of the Wooden Pole Khan, turned to look back at the head of the Treasury, and said in a deep voice: "The Wooden Pole Khan was arrogant and domineering, unable to defend the country, and turned his back on the old alliance to the south of Yin Mountain. The old Ilkhanate was weak and outnumbered, but it was still able to use small to overcome the big and greatly revitalize the Turks.

Now that the Khan who controls the land has this tent of followers, and there are two generations of Khans who are in the shadows, why are you afraid of the small night in the country? What's more, I am witnessing the new establishment of the Khan, and I will naturally help the Khan to succeed. Now that the sinners are dead, and the old grievances are erased, I am willing to conclude a golden and jade alliance with the Khan again, and help each other, and the two kingdoms will be friendly and there will be no more disputes, what will the Khan do?"

"Thank you Tang Gong for your kindness and tolerance, the two countries will always be friends and never fight again, this is also my wish!"

Ku Tou glanced at his brother's bloody head, cold sweat was on his forehead, but he didn't dare to raise his hand to wipe it, and after hearing this, he hurriedly bowed and responded.
