The Turki Khan tribe, the Jieli army arrived, and Khibi He Li was whipped severely, waste! Let you come and inspect it, and cause such a big disaster.

He Li was extremely aggrieved, and also quibbled that the warriors under the little Khan of Tuli were too wasteful, 10,000 against 10,000 were surrounded, and none of them rushed up to save me, and they all dismounted and surrendered. If it were my son of the headquarters of Qibi Holi, it would never be like this.

Tuli Little Khan's face was dark, and he had already scolded Qi Qi He Li thousands of times in his heart, Lao Tzu sent people to support you in the war and make meritorious contributions, and you yourself were ambushed, and you still blame me for cheating you? Without the support of Lao Tzu's soldiers and horses, do you dare to set foot in the territory of Datang alone? You also caused Lao Tzu to lose 20,000 war horses.

Jieli pressed down on the dispute among his subordinates, "Alright! If we can't let the Tang Dynasty successfully take away 20,000 war horses, if they are given the opportunity to build a strong cavalry, our Turkic advantage will be lost. Tuli, you should lead the department to snatch it as soon as possible. ”

Tuli bowed and saluted: "Great Khan, it's not that he is unwilling, but in fact his troops are insufficient. If I lead my troops into the hinterland of Youzhou, and I am afraid of the danger of going deep alone, I have no choice but to ask for help from the Great Khan's ruling. ”

Jieli is like a mirror in his heart, where does he not understand Tuli's little abacus?

Snorted coldly, "Qi Qi He Li, it is said that you and General Tang have met, go, send them a letter." The 20,000 war horses were sent back intact, and we no longer cared. Otherwise, let the people of Youzhou wash their necks and wait for the slaughter of the Japanese Khan's army in the Ming Dynasty. ”

Qi Bi He Li excitedly ran to Datang Anle City with his personal guards.

Anle City is preparing for war at this time, it is impossible to let an enemy general enter the city, and it is not good to see the Datang fortifications. So Chai Shao stood at the head of the city and talked to Qi Bi He Li in the air.

"General Chai, my Turkic army was killed under the city of Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty two years ago. What do you think of Youzhou's comparison to Chang'an? I advise you to be aware of the current affairs, hand over 20,000 war horses, and our Great Khan can act as if nothing has happened. ”

Chai Shao laughed and said, "Qi Bi He Li, you really have the face to speak." If you can't afford it, don't play. The 10,000 horses are our trophies, and the other 10,000 are the ransom for your life. How? The Turks are so poor? Backtracked and couldn't afford to lose, so send troops over to snatch it? ”

"You...... It's just robbing you of Youzhou, so what? If you don't know each other, our 100,000 army will not only snatch back the war horses, but also slaughter you Youzhou! He Li blushed and threatened.

Chai Shao's face turned cold, and he shouted: "Good thief!" Come on, our Youzhou soldiers and horses are not vegetarians. Tell Jieli that Ben will have an army of 50,000 to defend Youzhou, and if you want to try my Datang blade, come here. In addition, a surprise was prepared for him, so don't be scared. ”

Surprise? What surprises?

Chai Shao ignored him, turned around and went down the city. This time, the letter was suppressed, and Qi Bi He Li returned depressed, and reported to Jieli depressedly, saying that Chai Shao only said that there was a surprise, but he didn't say what it was, maybe it was deliberately to scare us.

Jieli whipped a horse whip on the face of Qi Qi He Li, waste, send a letter is smashed, if you can't kill a member of the Tang Dynasty tomorrow, go and die yourself, the Turks don't want useless people.

Turning his head, Jieli asked the thin middle-aged scribe beside him, "Military advisor, is Datang bluffing?" What other unknown power does Youzhou have? ”

The middle-aged scribe was the first think tank under Jieli, a down-and-out scholar in the former Sui Dynasty, who was oppressed by corrupt officials and corrupt officials in the imperial court because of his family's middle and down, and was angry and dissatisfied and left the north. By chance, he was appreciated by the Turkic Khan Jieli, and was soon reused, and he devoted himself to giving advice to the Turks.

This is not a simple traitor, but a scholar with great ambitions, determined to vigorously promote the culture of the Central Plains in the land of the Turkic barbarians, change the bad customs of the Turks, and achieve the great merit of educating the barbarians.

Encountering Jieli is also regarded as meeting his destined master, because Jieli is also a fan of Central Plains culture, and the two hit it off, so they launched a series of reform measures to change customs in Turkic.

The problem is that the Turks were originally nomadic and lived in a simple way, even if many customs were different from those of the Central Plains, but the people of the Turks were accustomed to this for generations. The Turkic people, who had not been in contact with the culture of the Central Plains, accepted such a reform?

Therefore, on the way of reform, all kinds of dissatisfaction gradually accumulated, and many leaders under Jieli dared to be angry but did not dare to speak, and the people under his rule were even more complaining, which laid the root of the decline of the Turks in the future.

After returning to the book, Zhao Deyan pondered for a moment and said: "Great Khan, your subordinates think that it is very likely that Chai Shao is bluffing. But we must not take it lightly, the 20,000 war horses must be recovered, and time must not be delayed. If they transport the war horses to the hinterland of the Tang Dynasty, then even if we slaughter the entire Youzhou, it will be too late. ”

Jieli nodded and praised: "Not bad!" What the military advisor said was extremely true. Since Chai Shao has prepared an army of 50,000 to defend, after the battle tomorrow, the troops will be divided into two routes. Send 50,000 people to resist Chai Shao's soldiers and horses, and the other 50,000 don't delay, they will kill directly to the hinterland of Youzhou, and they are bound to recover those war horses. ”

Here in Youzhou, where is Xiao Rui? What is the surprise that Chai Shao said?

Time went back to a few days ago, Xiao Rui recalled the experience of the afterlife in a dream, and then got up to look for Su Lie in a flash of inspiration.

"General Su, send someone to send a message to the Metropolitan Governor, I have a strategy against the enemy."

"Oh? Long history, suitable for good policies? ”

"What does the general know about the best defense?"

Su Lie pondered for a moment, "It is the Hangu Pass, the city is high and the walls are strong, and the soldiers and horses have enough food and grass, and Great Qin relied on this to defeat the six countries of the Central Plains. ”

Xiao Rui shook his head, "That's not right! ”

"That's the Shuzhong Sword Gate? It is said that the Shu Road is dangerous and difficult, and one person can be an army of 10,000 people. ”

Xiao Rui shook his head again, "It's still not right." ”

This stumped Su Lie, pondered for a long time, and asked weakly: "Changshi, tell me directly, is it to test my military affairs or government affairs?" In terms of military affairs, it is probably a matter of unity, and the soldiers use their lives. In terms of government affairs, the will of the people in the world is unbreakable. ”

Xiao Rui looked at Su Lie in front of him in surprise, and couldn't help but give a thumbs up, amazing, no wonder he can leave a name in history, it is really extraordinary. This is not a general who can only fight with generals.

"Okay, General Su, it's not a test for you. I'm talking about this defensive battle. Does the general know that the champion Hou Huo is sick? ”

Su Lie nodded heavily: "If I am a boy in the Central Plains and have fought barbarians on the battlefield, there is no one who does not know the name of the champion Hou Wei." Hiss...... Changshi, don't you mean that you want to follow the example of the champion Hou to chase the north and fight into the Turkic rear alone? ”

Xiao Rui laughed and said, "The general's eyes! My response is simple: the best defense is offense! ”
