Chapter 33: The Turkic Fiasco
On the other side, Tang Taizong Li Shimin led thousands of Xuanjia troops to fight and retreat, and when he saw the Turkic army approaching, he shot a rain of arrows backwards.
Cheng Yanjin followed Li Shimin closely, and when he saw Jieli Khan scolding angrily behind him, he shouted:
"Jieli Khan, I also want to see you dance, if you dance well, I can also give you a flower dress."
For a while, there was a burst of irrepressible laughter in the Xuanjia army.
Jieli Khan listened to Cheng Yanjin's insults, and shouted with red eyes:
"That black thief, when Ben Khan catches you, you will be better off dead than alive!"
Cheng Yanjin touched the back of his head, looked at Wei Chigong on the side very innocently, and said:
"Jingde, listen, black thief, Jieli Khan is scolding you, can you bear it?"
Wei Chigong, who was already facing like black charcoal, his whole face turned black at this moment, and he said:
"Yizhen, it's you who he's scolding, not me."
Cheng bit Jin's eyes and shouted:
"Jieli Khan, you listen to me, my name is Wei Chigong, the word respectful!"
Immediately, when he heard Jieli Khan scolding Wei Chi Gong in the back, Cheng Yanjin said with a smile:
"Jingde, listen, Jieli Khan is scolding you."
"If you can bear this, I will be really convinced."
Wei Chigong turned his head, afraid that he couldn't help it for a while, so he kicked Cheng Biting Jin off the horse.
……
A moment later, Li Shimin led thousands of Xuanjia troops around in a big circle and returned to the mountains and forests.
I saw that the fire was much smaller at this moment, and there was a strong smell of meat around it.
Jieli Khan originally mistakenly thought that Li Shimin would lead them into a trap.
At this moment, seeing Li Shimin rushing into the mountains and forests with thousands of iron horses, he sneered and ordered:
"Rush"
"Li Shimin's child has no way to escape."
Immediately afterwards, more than 100,000 Turkic iron horsemen quickly rushed into the mountains and forests, and suddenly, the war horses in the front row fell to the ground one after another, and were immediately trampled into pulp by the army that did not react.
Jieli Khan's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly ordered the army to slow down.
A Turkic soldier who fell off his horse and survived shouted:
"Khan, there are small pits on the ground!"
Jieli Khan touched the sweat on his forehead, and was just about to order the army to retreat and besiege this mountain forest.
Suddenly, Li Shimin's voice full of murderous intent sounded:
"Arson"
In an instant, the flames soared into the sky.
Blazing fires were burning in all directions, and the air was filled with the pungent smell of fierce fire oil.
Outside the fire, an army of fifty or sixty thousand troops had already been surrounded, with shield soldiers in front and crossbowmen behind, bending bows and arrows, shooting rockets into the sea of fire.
Jieli Khan looked at this scene with his teeth cracked, and roared angrily:
"Rush out of the fire with Ben Khan!"
At this moment, the army has already dispersed, like headless flies, dodging arrows.
Only tens of thousands of iron horsemen followed behind Jieli Khan, rushing towards the sea of fire.
……
Li Shimin looked at the monstrous fire in front of him and muttered:
"In this battle, Datang won."
"Keming, are there any casualties among the people nearby?"
Du Ruhui shook his head, bowed down and said:
"Your Majesty, the minister has already sent people to relocate all the people nearby, and besides, the minister and others have just rescued hundreds of captured people from the fire."
"According to them, the Turks passed along the way, and in order to prevent the news from leaking, they slaughtered dozens of villages."
When Li Shimin heard that the Turks had committed such a blood debt in the Tang Dynasty, he said in a cold voice:
"Keming, after this battle, I am determined to completely wipe out the Turks."
"All the people inside and outside, whoever dares to call themselves soldiers will be beheaded!"
Du Ruhui looked embarrassed and nodded slowly.
In the chat group.
Song Shaodi Zhao Yu: This is 200,000 war horses!
Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty: My second nephew thief is also a little smart, without the help of the right time and place, he simply fights for people's lives, isn't this the same as that Zhang Shijie?
Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty: 200,000 old, weak, sick and disabled, beating 20,000 people, and also locking the boat.
Yang Guang, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty: If this is attacked by fire, or if it is besieged in the sea by the Yuan people, I am afraid that it will not be able to hold out for even a few months, and the country will be destroyed.
Song Shaodi Zhao Yu: Ahem...... Taifu, he was just careless.
……
Tang Dynasty Zhenguan plane.
Suddenly, thousands of iron horsemen escorted Jieli Khan from the flames.
When Cheng Yanjin saw this scene, he was overjoyed and shouted:
"Jieli Khan, you and I are really destined!"
"Jingde, he scolded you very fiercely just now, I'll help you take revenge!"
Wei Chigong clenched his weapon, took a deep breath, rode his horse and whipped, and rushed towards the frightened Jieli Khan.
Before anyone arrives, the sound comes first:
"You just scolded me?"
Jieli Khan quickly took off the hot armor on his body, and when he looked up, he saw two fierce generals rushing towards him, already ten paces away, and shouted:
"Ben Khan has fallen, he has fallen!"
"Li Shimin, Ben Khan is willing to lead the Turks to surrender to the Tang Dynasty, please put out the fire quickly!"
Listening to the screams and wails in the sea of fire, Jieli Khan's face was like ashes.
These people are all young and middle-aged Turks, and once the 200,000-strong army is wiped out, the Turks will definitely lose their vitality.
After Wei Chigong ordered his soldiers to tie up all these thousands of Turkic soldiers, he came to Li Shimin with Jieli Khan in his arms.
After seeing Li Shimin, Jieli Khan no longer had the previous rebelliousness on his face, knelt on the ground, and pleaded:
"Your Majesty, Ben Khan is willing to lead the Turks to submit to the Tang Dynasty."
"I just hope that Your Majesty can spare Ben Khan's son."
Seeing this scene, Li Shimin did not have the slightest emotion in his voice, and said slowly:
"Spare your Turkic son?"
"Then I want to ask you, can I let the people of the Tang Dynasty go?"
"You led the Turkic iron cavalry to invade the border areas of our Tang Dynasty year after year, killing and plundering the people and looting property."
"Now that I'm invading Chang'an with more than 100,000 Turkic iron horsemen, do you really think I don't know your purpose?"
"I am not Emperor Yang Guang of Sui, and I will not be afraid of you and other barbarians."
After saying that, Li Shimin waved his hand and ordered someone to take Jieli Khan down and detain him.
……
Tang Dynasty Longshuo plane.
Inside the dormitory.
Wu Zetian looked at the live broadcast screen, between words and deeds, the sharp Li Shimin, and muttered:
"The First Emperor"
At this moment, Wu Zetian couldn't help but recall the emperor he saw when he entered the palace at the age of fourteen.
Although Li Shimin at this moment, in terms of prestige, is far inferior to the first emperor in her memory.
But it is undeniable that Li Shimin, who is now sharp, makes her even more afraid.
Suddenly, a trace of firmness flashed in Wu Zetian's eyes, and he tapped the system interface and said:
"Zhu Youzhen, can this palace trade Tang Dynasty history books with you?"
Ming Dynasty Chongzhen plane.
Zhu Youzhen, who was sleeping in the Ming Si Sect, heard the movement in the chat group, and hurriedly called out the system interface.
Seeing that Wu Zetian wanted to trade Tang Dynasty history books with him, he said excitedly:
"100,000 stone of grain, I will send you the history books of the Tang Dynasty tomorrow."
Subsequently, after the two agreed on the time, Zhu Youzhen pinched Queen Zhou's cheek with a smile and said:
"Queen, I have saved a lot of money for Daming."
