Li Ji said in a loud voice, "Master Hou, the Turkic army of 60,000 is menacing, and this governor has the responsibility of guarding Yunzhou, and in line with the principle that the first strike is stronger, so he will attack first." There seems to be no negligence. ”

"Enough, don't say it! You and I are half responsible for this accident. Xiao Rui interrupted Li Ji's words.

Turning his head, he continued to explain to Tuli, "This girl next to me was lost a few days ago, so I took the Xuanjia Army to look for it, and after searching for many days, I finally found it. Alas...... No way, this is His Majesty's most beloved daughter, and there is no room for error. Forgive me, little Khan. ”

Tu Li was angry, and said dissatisfiedly: "Master Hou, even if what you said is true, but because of a misunderstanding, our side lost our troops, how can you say this?" How do I explain to my son? ”

Zhang Shigui shouted: "Presumptuous, dare to be disrespectful to my lord?" Where is the Xuanjia Army? ”

Behind him, the Xuanjia Army shouted in unison.

Zhai Changsun also echoed: "That is, a misunderstanding, each has losses, is it difficult to let my marquis give you your life?" ”

Xiao Rui stretched out his hand and pressed everyone, "Okay, we are responsible this time." In this way, the bereavement compensation for the dead and wounded in this battle will be fully compensated according to Datang's bereavement standard. It can be regarded as giving a little heart and compensation to the dead and wounded soldiers of your army. ”

Tuli: Can ......

"If you don't agree, or because of this misunderstanding, the little Khan of Tuli wants to hold a grudge and is unwilling to form an alliance with us, then it is not said, we are at a loss. How you want to take revenge, we will all take it, and each of us will go back to prepare for war, and this marquis will give you a chance to take revenge. ”

"Just these people behind me, three thousand Xuanjia cavalry, and the remaining soldiers in Yunzhou. You can bring as many people as you want to take revenge, even if you call all the armies of Jieli Khan, Ben Hou will follow them all without frowning. ”

Hiss......

This is a ruthless man.

Fang Yi's love said, no, Brother Xiao, we are at a loss.

He was the only one who thought so, and the others all wanted to laugh, what kind of attitude did Master Hou have to admit his mistake and apologize? It's clearly a threat, a clear bully!

Tu Li's face turned red with anger, "Okay, I hope Master Hou will be true to his words!" Military affairs are busy, and they are unaccompanied. ”

Drop a sentence and leave with the guards.

Xiao Rui smiled dumbly, and joked to the people around him, "What? The pension of so many people is not a small amount, am I not sincere enough? ”

Sincerity?

Li Ji was no longer able to complain, "Master Hou, you don't seem to be sincere, it's clearly intentional." Are you deliberately trying to force the counter-Turks? I really didn't expect him to be so enduring. ”

Xiao Rui pursed his lips and said innocent, "If it is not my race, its heart will be different." We don't have enough troops, and putting 60,000 troops around us is a hidden danger after all, now...... Hehe, I feel much safer, and I can sleep well at night. ”

Everyone looked up and felt that there were almost too many people left on both sides. The original plan was to wipe out 20,000 Turks, but now it seems that it is a bit of a murderous one.

"Governor, when you send someone to send the first batch of pensions to Tuli, remember to inform him and ask him to ask Jieli for help. It is best to mobilize more troops and horses to come to Yunzhou. ”

Li Ji: "Do you really want to send them money?" It's all so stiff, can he still listen to you? ”

Xiao Rui said confidently: "Simple, since he wants to join us, he must cooperate with our actions." Otherwise, it is a fake surrender, and Ben Hou and the Xuanjia Army will not let go of the liars who pretend to surrender to sincerity. Destroy Tuli first, and then kill Dingxiang. ”

"But that's a lot of money...... There is a lot of pressure on Shanxi. "Li Ji is a little distressed about money.

Xiao Rui waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, let Tuli help us keep it for the time being." Reluctant to let the child trap the wolf, he can't carry this money, it is used to give him peace of mind. ”

……

On Tuli's side, the more I think about it, the more angry I become, my subordinates are shouting grievances, the Tang people have no faith, we don't want his bereavement, and we will go to Yunzhou to avenge the sons!

Don't you want to do it? Can't he see that Yunzhou's Li Ji and champion Hou Xiaorui are acting together?

But his mission here is to drag Xiao Rui, when he has 60,000 soldiers and horses, he can also say that he will try it with strength, but now? can only hope that Xiao Rui will not attack him.

"Am I being recognized? No, everything I did was true, and no one knew about the plan. Tuli muttered and sent someone to send a letter to Zhao Deyan.

How did he know that Xiao Rui was sure to make a profit and not lose money.

Even if you come to surrender sincerely, my Datang really doesn't lack your 60,000 soldiers and horses. As long as you don't help Jieli occupy the field, when the time comes, our 100,000 army will win against Shangjieli's soldiers and horses, and the chances of winning will be much greater.

The problem is, it's hard to say whether your tuli is true or not. Xiao Rui didn't bother to play any infernal scheming with him, so he hit directly. There is no danger around me to kill, and there is no doubt that you are an opponent when you kill, so simple and effective, with minimal risk. At most, you can lose a little reputation, what is reputation? I don't need it.

When the news reached Li Jing's camp in Yanzhou, Li Jing was stunned, is there such a way? I've been testing here for a long time, but you're good, and you directly forced Tuli to reverse.

I wanted to test your kid with the test of sudden profit, but now it's good, you gave me a force to drop ten.

Zhao Deyan's side, seeing the letter from Tuli, Zhao Junshi, who is known as the first wise man of the Turks, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot, "What a ruthless champion Hou." I thought that between doubt and trust, you always had to choose one. Unexpectedly, you didn't choose it at all. Before the war began, you exchanged 3,000 casualties for 28,000 Turkic casualties......"

"Military advisor, the envoy of the Liang State asks to see you." Someone reported outside the door.

"Liang Guo? Didn't he Xue Li just go back? Why bother? ”

"I don't know, but this messenger asked for a secret meeting."

Zhao Deyan raised his eyebrows and asked people to bring the messenger in.

……

Looking at the carload of pensions in front of him, Tuli scolded and scolded, but his face looked much better, and the champion Hou was poisonous, but he was really generous. The Tang Army's pension treatment is very good, so much copper money, the profit is distributed to the family of each fallen soldier, which is enough for a family of three to spend for several years.

"Little Khan of Tuli, this is a letter from our Hou Ye to you." Li Junxian personally came to deliver the letter.

After reading the letter, Tuli's face fell again, and he really wanted to scold his mother.

"Our department has suffered heavy losses, so we can only press and trim, and we are powerless to help Master Hou......"

Without waiting for Tuli to finish speaking, Li Junxian waved his hand and interrupted: "Little Khan misunderstood. It's not that you want to send troops, but just that you will truthfully report the battle damage this time, and then ask for help from Jieli Khan of Dingxiang. The meaning of our Hou Ye is very simple, Shanxi is not the main force of the Tang army all the way, and the main task is to lure the enemy. ”

"Since you have agreed to take refuge in Datang, then we are friendly forces, and you must cooperate with us. Only by separating as many soldiers and horses around Jieli as possible can our main force break through Dingxiang. ”

"Our Hou Ye said that this battle has destroyed Jieli, and I will immediately ask my Majesty to canonize you as the new Turkic Khan, and the entire steppe will be yours in the future."

Oh? Did Master Hou really say that?

For a moment, Tuli felt his heart skip a beat.
