Chapter 40 Two Foxes
Surrounding the Turks, Luo Shixin, Li Shiji, Yuchi Jingde and Xue Wanche did not attack immediately, but gathered together to discuss matters.
Li Jing was not here, and the army was highly respected by Luo Shixin and Li Shiji's status. Luo Shixin and Li Shiji discussed their official positions, Luo Shixin was a little better than Li Shiji, so he gathered in Luo Shixin's camp to discuss.
Luo Shixin and Li Shiji sat down, Xue Wanche made a few heads, and Yuchi Jingde stayed in the West to avoid the Turkic breakthrough.
Jie Li was like a turtle in a jar at this time, but in the final analysis, there were still 40,000 soldiers. With their strength and the current situation of the Turks, winning is no longer a problem. The real problem is how to capture Jie Li alive.
After running away Jie Li, it would be useless even if the 40,000 surrounding Turkic soldiers were wiped out.
How the three armies cooperate and how to encircle them has become the key.
Xue Wanche said: "Before the chief general left, he left a general order. After trapping Jie Li, he took the tactical style of the two chief general managers first and listened to their opinions."
Luo Shixin and Li Shiji were not speaking, thinking about what tactical tactics to accurately capture Jie Li.
At this moment, Luo Shixin accidentally received news from the Turkic envoy.
Luo Shixin, Li Shiji, and Xue Wanche looked at each other and were all surprised.
After a moment of silence, Luo Shixin said: "Take him in and speak."
Soon, a quite burly Turkic man strode in.
His eyes swept through the hall: "Asnasmo has seen two generals..."
Luo Shixin nodded. However, Li Shiji said, "It turned out to be Prince Heshun. He had been separated from him in the past. It has been many years since then?"
Asina was the surname of the Turkic royal family, and Asinasmo was supposed to be a member of the Turkic royal family. At the beginning of the Wude year, when the Turks had not yet broken up in the Tang Dynasty, Asinasmo visited the Tang Dynasty many times and could almost be regarded as the diplomatic ambassador of the Turkic at that time. At that time, the Turks were extremely strong, and the Tang Dynasty had just won the Guanzhong and had not yet established a foothold. He had a certain idea of flattery for the Turkic, and specially conferred Asinasmo as the Prince of Heshun.
It was not until the Tang Dynasty rose rapidly that it aroused the fear of the Turks and the disagreement that the two sides stopped interacting.
Li Shiji once met Ashinasmo in Chang'an and had a brief conversation with each other.
Ashinasmo nodded and said, "It has been five or six years. At that time, you and I had a happy conversation, but I didn't expect that in just a few years, the situation would change to what it is today. Just as your old saying goes, the world has changed. Times have changed."
Luo Shixin listened to Li Shiji's reminiscence with Ashinasmo and understood what Li Shiji meant. Li Shiji was telling him calmly that as the Turkic royal family and as the diplomatic ambassador of the Turkic and Tang dynasty, Ashinasmo, who was also the title of prince of the county, should be treated with caution this time.
Hearing what he said, Luo Shixin said calmly: "If you Turks hadn't deceived people too much, went south for years, destroying my home and killing my people. How could you have today? Tell me quickly, this decisive battle is about to come. What's your purpose?"
Luo Shixin's tone was not polite, and Asanasmo did not feel embarrassed. As a loser, his mentality could still be corrected and sighed melancholy: "What the general said is reasonable. The crimes that I, Turks, today are worthy of all the crimes I have suffered. I have persuaded King Khan many years ago that the wise king of the Tang Dynasty could be compared with Emperor Wu of Han hundreds of years ago. If I were enemies with the Tang Dynasty, my Turks would be like the Huns in the past. King Khan was instigated by the traitorous concubine, and did not listen to me, and sent troops many times, which led to today's desperate situation. Everything was caused by my Turks and had nothing to do with others. Now I, Turks, suffered a disaster of destruction, which is even more miserable than the Huns in the Han Dynasty..."
Speaking of this, tears actually rolled out from Asuna Smo's eyes and cried out.
In history, Wei Qing and Huo Qubing drove the Huns out of the grassland and fled everywhere, but after all, there was a place to escape, and the Turks now had no place to escape.
Luo Shixin's face was stiff. Unexpectedly, a big man cried when he said he could cry, but he was still a burly man.
Asunasmo wiped his tears and choked, "Now the Khan is surrounded by the Tang Dynasty Heavenly Soldiers, just like the lamb in the sheep pen, and he can only get stabbed. The Khan is now very regretful of the past. He is saying in his dream that he is sorry for the Khan of the Turks and is ashamed of the ancestor of the Wolf God. The Khan now knows his mistake and specially sent me to apologize for surrender, and is willing to entrust the country." He said here, and his whole person kneels on the ground, his head hitting the ground, and does not move.
Luo Shixin and Li Shiji looked at each other and communicated with each other's views.
Li Shiji nodded slightly.
Luo Shixin said, "I can't make the decision. Let me go back and tell Jie Li, let him appoint an envoy and bring your sincerity. I will send someone to escort you to Chang'an to apologize. If Your Majesty agrees to surrender, everything will be easy to talk about. If you don't allow it, then it's no wonder that we are cruel and ruthless. In our current situation, defeating you is like killing an ants."
"Thank you for your kindness, General!" Asanasmo knelt on the ground again.
Luo Shixin waved his hand and asked someone to send Ashinasmo away.
Asunasmo left the tent shortly after.
"Haha!" Li Shiji suddenly laughed, "God really helped me. The Turks surrendered without fighting, and we also avoid the casualties of fighting to the end. If we fail to fight, we will be able to surrender without fighting. No matter how good it is."
Luo Shixin smiled without saying anything, praising Li Shiji as a fox in his heart, and he was indeed cunning.
Xue Wanche stood up and said, "Since the Turks have decided to surrender, we will return to the camp now and pass on the good news to make the brothers happy."
Luo Shixin made a booing gesture, then shook his hand at Xue Wanche, and asked him to return to his seat.
After a while, he smiled and said, "Don't rush to leave! We are doing a show, don't you see it?"
Xue Wanche said with a confused look on his face: "What does the general mean?"
Li Shiji asked, "Does General Xue really think Jie Li surrendered sincerely? Humph, now they are under the roof and have to bow their heads. According to their habits, today we let them go and let them beg for surrender. In the near future, we will definitely be enemies of our Tang Dynasty again."
"Dogs can never change their shit!" Luo Shixin continued Li Shiji's words and snorted coldly: "Although Jie Li is defeated now and has a large number of troops, there is still a possibility of a comeback. If he does not kill him completely, the Turks will definitely be the second Hun."
Emperor Wu of Han launched the Huns and Han War. Through the Battle of Henan, Hexi, and Mobei, he drove the Huns out of the grassland, Mobei, and the Huns were temporarily unable to move south. However, in just over a decade, the Huns attacked again, causing certain harm to the Han Dynasty. At that time, the Han Dynasty had no Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, and his strength was greatly damaged due to years of war. With Chen Tang's victory, Li Ling and Li Guangli's defeat, although he had won more than he lost less, he finally found that he could achieve glory again in the past.
With the lessons of the past, how could Luo Shixin and Li Shiji let them go and forgive their crimes just because of Jie Li's surrender?
However, both of them were cunning people. Seeing that there was an opportunity, they just like foxes, and silently cooperated with each other to set up a trap for the Turks.
Xue Wanche said in a deep voice: "The two generals said that the Turks are falsely surrendering?"
Luo Shixin stood up and said, "Whether it is true or fake surrender, it doesn't matter. What is important is to prevent the Turkic resurgence. Only by killing all the Turkic soldiers beside Jie Li and capturing him to the Central Plains can the Turkic comeback be prevented. So no matter what intentions he has, this last battle must be fought, and it must be fought beautifully."
Xue Wanche is not a stupid person, and he also understands Luo Shixin's meaning.
Nothing can be done is nonsense. Luo Shixin and Li Shiji's purpose was to make Jie Li let go of his guard and make Jie Li think that the Tang Dynasty had agreed to their request and agreed to send envoys to surrender, and would not engage in troops against them for the time being.
Xue Wanche looked at the two people in the head and only sighed:
My heart is so dark!
************
Jie Li received the news from Ashinasmo, and his tense string finally relaxed. He let out a long sigh, sat blankly on the grass, remembering his father back then. In order to please the Sui Dynasty, his father heard the emperor of the Sui Dynasty patrol the border and personally cut the weeds on the road for the Sui Dynasty emperor to greet the emperor. Now it is his turn, and he seems to be even more miserable than his father.
His father just mowed the grass, but he led the entire Turkic surrender...
"I, Jie Li, are the sinner of the Turks..." Jie Li couldn't help but sighed, and recovered a little bit of his energy. He asked Zhao Deyan to prepare paper and pen and write a letter of surrender himself.
He wrote with a slow writing feeling, and wrote it well in nearly a thousand words, drying the ink marks, and using Asunasmo as his envoy to the Tang Dynasty.
"This should be OK!" Jie Li was a little discouraged. The situation in front of him made him have no second way to go.
Zhao Deyan also breathed a sigh of relief at this time: "No matter what the final result is, whether the Tang Dynasty agreed to our request or not, at least before the news is conveyed, we are safe. The people of the Central Plains pay attention to trust and righteousness, and do not fight against the defeated soldiers. They are very happy about our begging for surrender."
"Yes!" Jie Li said: "I was so humiliated that the Turks became slaves of the Tang Dynasty from the moment I compiled the book. What reason do they have to be unhappy?"
Zhao Deyan advised: "The Khan has only the soldiers, but now he still follows the Khan king with all the last hopes of the Turks. As long as they are here, the Khan king will not be afraid of not having a chance to make a comeback. Just..." He sighed and said: "I can't serve the Khan king in the future. If the Khan king makes a comeback, don't forget that there was a person from the Central Plains who once worked hard to contribute to the rise of the Khan king. It's a pity that he is very ambitious and lacks his power to make the comeback."
He knew that the Tang Dynasty could not tolerate him for a traitor like him. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
