Chapter 444 Invite Khan to go to Chang'an in person and ask His Majesty to surrender
"hiss……"
Zhi lost his mind and took a cold breath, his eyes narrowed, he quickly put the steel knife in his hand in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully.
On the side, Tang Jian was stroking his hands and laughing.
"The general is brave!"
"Mr. Ju, this sword?..."
Zhi lost his mind and his eyes widened, and he couldn't help but ask.
"This sword is the sword of my Tang Dynasty soldier. I wonder what's wrong with it?"
Tang Jian asked deliberately.
Zhi lost his mind and took a deep breath, his eyes gleaming.
"Such an extremely sharp blade is just the sword of a soldier of the Tang Dynasty?"
"Exactly!"
Tang Jian nodded slowly.
Zhi lost his mind and subconsciously looked at the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty around him. Sure enough, all the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were wearing this type of steel sword.
I couldn’t help but be shocked!
Immediately, he quickly looked at Tang Jian who was standing aside, and asked expectantly: "How dare I ask Duke Ju, if the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty wore such sharp blades, what kind of magic weapons did the generals of the Tang Dynasty wear?"
Tang Jian chuckled and looked at An Xiuren.
Seeing this, An Xiuren directly threw the horse in his hand to Zhi Huan Si Li.
"General, what do you mean?"
Although he had some vague guesses, Zhi lost his thinking power and still couldn't believe it.
"This horse is what I, the General of the Tang Dynasty, wear!"
Tang Jian explained in a slow voice, "Sage is merciful. All generals and lieutenants of the fifth rank and above of my Tang Dynasty are equipped with horses made of fine steel!"
"How could the Tang Dynasty become so wealthy?"
At this time, Zhi lost his ability to think and couldn't help but feel shocked.
Zhi lost his thinking power, who had never used a horse before, couldn't help but use his hands to lift the horse, and swung it towards a large tree as thick as his neck.
Likewise, without feeling any resistance, the tree slowly fell to the ground like chopping vegetables.
Seeing this, Zhi lost his mind and couldn't help but his eyes flashed. He stared, slowly looked at the horse from beginning to end, and then returned the horse to An Xiuren with reluctance.
Then, he sighed slowly.
"I didn't expect that the sword-making skills of the Tang Dynasty were so exquisite. No wonder my Turkic warriors were beaten back on the battlefield!"
"Hahaha……"
Tang Jian laughed loudly.
"General, don't forget this kind of clothing. Not only are our weapons sharp, but our clothes are also very warm. Even in the middle of winter, our soldiers will not feel the slightest bit cold!"
"Indeed!"
At this moment, Zhihuansi Li also reacted, felt it slightly, and couldn't help but be surprised.
With such a good kung fu, he actually started to sweat!
"After such a while, Mo even started to sweat! May I ask Duke Ju, this piece of clothing... is so amazing, I wonder if I can let someone buy it for me!"
As he said this, Zhi lost his thoughts and felt a little embarrassed, his face full of embarrassment.
However, wearing this kind of clothes was so comfortable that even if he returned to Turks, he would not feel the slightest cold.
"Haha, General, feel free to wear it!"
Tang Jian chuckled lightly and waved back with an indifferent expression.
"Thank you so much, Duke Ju!"
I am overjoyed when I lose my thinking power.
As for the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who were full of dissatisfaction with him, they lost their minds and ignored them.
…
In this way, after driving all the way from Chang'an for more than ten days, a group of people arrived at Yinshan.
Because the Turkic tribes they encountered along the way were all overwhelmingly pushed past them. Chai Shao, Xu Shiji, Li Daozong and other armies did not encounter much strong resistance at all, and quickly surrounded them along the way.
Flags were fluttering throughout the vicinity of Yinshan Mountain, and there were Tang military tents all over the mountains and plains.
Zhi Huan Si Li and others were guarded in a tent by soldiers sent by Li Jing, and then Li Jing and others met with Tang Jian and An Xiuren.
Li Jing strongly disagreed with Jie Li's surrender.
The more than 30,000 Turks who could follow Jieli to retreat to Iron Mountain were all die-hard loyalists to Jieli, and he would be relieved only if they were all wiped out.
However, Li Shimin had already issued an edict, and there was nothing he could do.
Fortunately, there was one last secret edict, which made Li Jing, Li Daozong and others brighten up and start
After some reminiscing and discussion.
Tang Jian and An Xiuren led their own personal guards, plus one hundred soldiers sent by Li Jing, totaling three hundred, and followed Zhi lost his thoughts to Tieshan.
Iron Mountain.
In King Jieli's tent, two stoves were burning, bringing some warmth to the heavy tent.
Jie Li was lying on the wolf-skin king's chair with a sad look on his face. Who would have thought that the Tang Dynasty's army would arrive so quickly? It took him just a few days to send Zhi Shisi Li to Chang'an. Li Jing's army had already arrived at Duyin Mountain, and all it took was a surprise attack.
, you can rush directly to Iron Mountain.
But now, there was a foot of snow everywhere, and he had no way to escape.
Suddenly, a soldier opened the curtain and walked in with a happy face.
"The Great Khan, Zhi lost his thoughts and led the envoy from the Tang Dynasty back!"
Suddenly, Jieli was overjoyed.
"Please come quickly!"
After saying that, Jieli stood up, put on his mink coat, and walked out.
As soon as I walked out of the tent, I saw a group of people walking in from the outside.
The leader was none other than his trusted confidant Zhi Wansili, and the other one turned out to be Tang Jian.
"Report to the Khan, I will live up to the Khan's command and bring back the envoy of the Tang Dynasty!"
Walking up to Jie Li, Zhi lost his ability to think and saluted quickly.
"The envoys of the Tang Dynasty, Tang Jian and An Xiuren, met the Turk Jieli Khan!"
Tang Jian and An Xiuren were also slightly polite.
Jie Li nodded slightly.
"The Tang Dynasty envoy has come from afar, please come in quickly!"
Seeing Jie Li in such a state and still looking so arrogant, An Xiuren couldn't help but feel angry.
However, Tang Jian was already used to Jie Li's temperament.
Therefore, he chuckled lightly, exchanged polite greetings with Jie Li, and then followed Jie Li into the king's tent.
Soon, someone served roasted leg of lamb and hot goat milk.
After having enough wine and food, the atmosphere began to liven up.
On the throne, Jie Li finally couldn't help it and asked, "May I ask Duke Ju, how does the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty view this Khan's apology and surrender?"
"If the Khan can surrender to me, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, I, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, will naturally be very happy!"
Tang Jian slowly leaned forward, and when a smile flashed in Jieli's eyes, he continued: "It's just that in view of the fact that Jieli Khan secretly tore up the alliance with the Tang Dynasty twice before. Therefore, this time I, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, need to
Khan went to Chang'an City in person, and I, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, personally accepted Khan's surrender!"
"Do you want Ben Khan to go to Chang'an in person?"
In an instant, Jie Li's expression changed drastically.
"What does the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty mean by this? Is it possible that he doesn't believe me?"
"Going back to Khan, this time Khan was besieged in Tieshan by our Tang Dynasty's 100,000-strong army, and he only sent a chief of the Zhihu tribe to Chang'an to ask for surrender. There was no sincerity in this move.
Before that, the Khan tore up the treaty with the Tang Dynasty twice and invaded the borders of the Tang Dynasty. How can the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty trust the Khan?
Now, our Tang Dynasty army of 100,000 people has besieged Khan here. As long as our Tang Dynasty army charges forward, Khan and other tribes can be wiped out in an instant.
It's just that I, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, have a benevolent heart and cannot bear to kill too many lives, so I accepted the Khan's surrender.
Therefore, Khan also needs to show sincerity to me, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty!"
After that, Tang Jian ignored the angry Jie Li and the leaders of the Turkic generals, took out the edict issued by Li Shimin from his arms and handed it to Jie Li.
"This edict is from the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty to the Khan. Please ask the Khan to read it!"
"snort!"
Jie Li snorted coldly, but obediently took the edict and read it.
The more he looked, the angrier his face became.
However, Tang Jian still looked blank.
When he first left Chang'an, he was still a little anxious.
However, when he came to Yinshan and saw Li Jing, Li Daozong, Xu Shiji and other armies surrounding him, and looking at the snow covering his calves outside, Tang Jian knew that Jie Li had been forced into a desperate situation.
