They discussed the matter of Bingzhou for a while and then turned to the matter of Hebei.
"If Jieli defeats King Qin, Bingzhou and even Hedong Road will be lost. Your Highness, Hebei needs to be pacified as soon as possible, otherwise it will be detrimental to the overall situation." Du Ruhui said.
Li Zhiyun walked to the map and ordered Li Zhen to replace it with the map of Hedong Road.
He looked at the map and said: "With the ability of King Qi, Bingzhou cannot be defended, and with Liu Wenjing who is uncertain about his position, we must prepare for the worst. If I resolve the matter in Hebei in advance, we may be able to
Rush to Taiyuan to stop Jie Li from going south and drive him away."
"Once King Qin is defeated, the imperial court should also send troops." Xue Shou added.
Li Zhiyun sighed: "The prince's move is really dangerous. He used the entire Hedong Road as a bet to kill the King of Qin. It is not a big deal."
"If the prince doesn't do this, when the King of Qin resolves Jie Li, I'm afraid the prince will be in panic." Du Ruhui said.
Li Zhiyun nodded and did not deny this view.
Xue Shu said: "Right now, Shi Bo Bi is entrenched in Youzhou, and Luo Yi has always used the lack of troops as an excuse to shirk our pincer attack strategy. I'm afraid only a head-on battle can defeat Shi Bo Bi."
"Not necessarily." Li Zhiyun said expressionlessly.
Xue Shou was puzzled, "What does the king mean?"
Li Zhiyun said: "Some time ago, Shibo Bi sent someone to secretly meet with me and said that he was willing to exchange Dou Jiande for Yu Gushe. This may be an opportunity for us."
"The king wants to retreat from Shi Bo Bi?" Du Ruhui frowned, "I'm afraid it's unlikely. This time Shi Bo Bi went south, it is very likely that Jie Li meant it. Now that Jie Li has the upper hand in Bingzhou, Shi Bo Bi
We will not retreat easily."
"No." Li Zhiyun said: "The smoother Jie Li goes, the more likely Shi Bo Bi will agree to us."
Du Ruhui thought for a moment and suddenly figured out something.
On this day, Qin Qiong and Yuchi Gong led 300 light plate cavalry to escort Li Zhiyun from Wen'an Camp and headed to the side of the Juma River tributary twenty miles away.
At dawn.
Li Zhiyun stationed his horse on the south bank of the river.
On the north bank of the river, Shibobi had been waiting for a long time.
Neither side brought many people, only the absolute elite.
A stone bridge spans the river.
Shibobi sent his association leaders to hand over the matter, and Li Zhiyun sent Li Zhen over to hand over the matter.
The two sides quickly completed the personnel exchange.
Shi Bo Bi rescued Yu Gushe, and Li Zhiyun got Dou Jiande and Ling Jing.
Dou Jiande looked ugly and lowered his head without saying a word, not wanting to see Li Zhiyun. He never expected that he would be abandoned by the Turks in the end.
If it weren't for Su Lie, Li Zhiyun wouldn't bother to talk to Dou Jiande at all. Having said that, the three-month deadline between him and Su Lie had already passed, and he should have let Su Lie go, but Su Lie did not leave Tang Jun immediately because of Gao Yaxian's relationship.
Now that Dou Jiande was rescued, Li Zhiyun finally felt relieved. Su Lie should now belong to him.
"Li Zhen."
"exist."
"Take two people and escort Dou Jiande back."
"yes."
After Dou Jiande and Ling Jing left, Li Zhiyun gently lifted his horse and crossed the stone bridge. Behind him, Qin Qiong and Yuchi Gong followed closely.
On the opposite side, Shi Bobi also came riding a horse.
Both sides stopped about ten steps away.
Li Zhiyun looked at Yu Gushe, who looked ugly, and said with a smile: "Yugu She, you have a good brother."
"Humph!" Yugushe tilted his head and didn't want to speak.
Being a prisoner is a shame within the Turks.
Shi Bobi's eyes paused for a moment on Qin Qiong and Yuchi Gong, with a hint of fear hidden in his eyes. Those two Tang generals could be called fierce gods.
"Li Zhiyun, aren't you going to retreat?" Shi Bobi said coldly.
"Why did I withdraw my troops?" Li Zhiyun asked back: "You were defeated earlier, and 40,000 troops were killed by my army. You should be the one to withdraw your troops."
To rub salt into the wound, the association rate cannot bear it.
"Li Zhiyun, you are so proud, do you dare to fight?"
"I'm here to play with you." Yuchi Gong rode forward, riding ahead.
Jiushesu's expression changed drastically, and he looked at Yuchi Gong with fear.
Turks have always worshiped the strong, and a fierce man like Yuchi Gong made them both respect and hate him.
Shi Bobi asked: "Li Zhiyun, do you dare to come over and talk to me alone?"
"Why don't you dare?"
After saying this, Li Zhiyun rode away from the stone bridge.
Seeing this, Shi Bo Bi followed closely and chased after him. On the stone bridge, Tu Qi and Tang Qi were still facing each other.
Li Zhiyun and Shi Bobi did not run far away. Within everyone's sight, the two were riding side by side, like a pair of friends.
Shi Bobi stopped his horse, dismounted, and walked to the river.
Li Zhiyun also dismounted and walked over.
"What do you want to say?"
Shi Bobi said: "Actually, it's nothing. I just want to tell you some news. Jieli won a great victory in Bingzhou, and your second brother is dying now."
Li Zhiyun's face was calm and he could not see any joy.
"There is no need to say this. No matter whether Jieli wins or loses, it will not affect Hebei. Shibobi, although you are a little Turkic Khan, if you get into a bitter battle in Hebei, I don't think Jieli will come to save you.
.
Even if what you say is true, I can kill you first, then support Bingzhou and kill Jieli."
"Hahahaha." Shi Bobi laughed wildly, "Li Zhiyun, you are really arrogant and arrogant. From the first time we met, you have been so confident. I am very surprised, how can someone as confident as you be?
Tolerate others vying for the throne."
Li Zhiyun chuckled, "Shi Bo Bi, my time is precious and I don't want to talk nonsense with you. If you have anything to do, just tell me directly."
Hearing this, Shi Bo Bi secretly thought that it was a pity that Li Zhiyun was really incompetent.
"Actually, it's nothing. I can tell you that Jieli has indeed trapped your second brother in Bingzhou. If you go to Bingzhou at this time, you may be able to save Li Shimin."
"Then give Hebei to you?" Li Zhiyun sneered, "Shibo Bi, don't be proud of yourself. If Jieli wins a big victory, you will never have the chance to return to the Turkic royal court in your life. Even if Jieli wins a big victory,
After that, they might even turn around and eliminate you, completely unifying the Turks.
You are on the road to death and you don't know it, you are really stupid."
Li Zhiyun shook his head with a rather regretful expression.
Shi Bo Bi's face was solemn. This Li Zhiyun was indeed not an ordinary person. In just a few words, all his thoughts were exposed.
Seeing that Shi Bo Bi's expression was wrong, Li Zhiyun knew that he had guessed correctly.
In fact, it is not difficult to guess, because Jieli is Shibobi's uncle, and it was Shibobi who should have inherited the position of Khan, but unfortunately he was snatched away by Chuluo.
Now Chuluo is dead and has been robbed by Jieli again.
As the son of Shibi Khan and the younger Khan of the Eastern Turks, Shibo Bi was an eyesore no matter who was in charge of the Turks.
Because he has the qualifications and strength to threaten the position of the Turkic Lord.
His two uncles, Chu Luo and Jie Li, were extremely wary of him.
Shi Bobi said gloomily: "You really deserve to die."
"You can come and give it a try." Li Zhiyun said mockingly.
Shi Bobi pretended to be calm and said: "You are just a Han Chinese, how can you understand the intimacy of our Turkic people? It's just an idiot's dream."
"Really?" Li Zhiyun chuckled, "In that case, let's just decide the outcome on the battlefield. But I can remind you that if you lose to me in Hebei, you will return to the grassland in the future and face the rising power.
I can bow my head and surrender.
No, even if you can defeat me, I will tear off the flesh from your body. When the time comes, your strength will be damaged, and you will still have no choice but to surrender in the face of Jie Li.
You will never regain the Turkic throne in your lifetime."
The more he spoke, the darker Shibobi's face turned.
