Li Shimin

Chapter 444 Xieli wants to surrender?

"Xuanling, do you have a different opinion?"

Seeing this, Li Shimin asked slowly.

Fang Xuanling hurriedly clasped his hands in salute, and said with a little fear: "Your Majesty, forgive me, I remember that Li Jing and others reported that Xieli still has [-] soldiers.

I couldn't help being a little worried, in case Xieli asked to surrender this time, it was just to delay the time and stabilize His Majesty.After the spring of next year, when the grass is green and the horses are fertile, Jieli will retreat to Mobei and attach himself to countries such as Xue Yantuo or Tuyuhun. For my Tang Dynasty, it will definitely be a big hidden danger! "

"Hmph, that kid Jieli dares to play tricks on me!"

Hearing this, Li Shimin sneered directly.

At this moment, Changsun Wuji couldn't help but understand something, his heart was shaken, and he said quickly: "Your Majesty is wise, it turns out that Your Majesty has long seen that Jieli's wolf ambition.

Since he Jieli wanted to surrender, why didn't he come to Chang'an to plead guilty to His Majesty in person, so as to appear sincere?Now it is shrinking into an iron mountain. Doesn't it mean that there is a ghost in my heart! "

"Furthermore, Zhishisili is only the chief of the East Turkic Zhishi tribe, and seems to be Jieli's adviser, not the Ashina family such as the Eastern Turkic Oshe!"

Hearing this, Li Shimin narrowed his eyes and nodded slightly.

Originally, according to his intention, all the elites of the Tang Dynasty should be sent out, and Jieli, who is afraid of him, could be defeated in one fell swoop, so that Jieli could obediently surrender to the Tang Dynasty.

Then, he was named king and kept in captivity in Chang'an.

In this way, Datang's northern Turkic troubles can be solved.

But now that he is in such a situation, is Xieli still thinking carefully? ...

Thinking about it, Li Shimin asked directly: "How long will it take Li Jing to wipe out all Jieli's troops? How much will my Tang soldiers need to lose?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Li Jing and other troops have sufficient supplies and sharp armor, as long as they fight steadily, they can push Jieli into a desperate situation within two months at the most.

It's just that Li Jing's treacherous use of troops, and the fact that I have used all the best of the Tang Dynasty this time, it is unknown how long Jieli can last under Li Jing and the others! "

After pondering for a while, Fang Xuanling said slowly.

"Then are you sure you can catch Xieli?"

Li Shimin asked again.

This matter was what Li Shimin was most concerned about.

If Xieli cannot be captured alive, Li Shimin is ready to use the safest method to accept Xieli's surrender, and trick Xieli into Chang'an!

"Your Majesty, it's freezing cold, as long as one hundred thousand troops form a siege, Xieli can't escape with his wings.

When Li Jing and other troops are surrounded, His Majesty can issue an edict to order Xieli to come to Chang'an City obediently to confess his guilt and beg for surrender!
At the same time, His Majesty also issued an edict to Li Jing and other chief executives, if Jieli obeyed His Majesty's edict, it would be fine to come to Chang'an to surrender and plead guilty.However, as for daring to have any unruly intentions, Li Jing and the others acted accordingly and wiped out Jieli in one fell swoop! "

Fang Xuanling said again.

Then, when he thought of something, he showed regret.

"It's just that, in this way, my Tang Dynasty will lose a lot of strong and strong labor!"

"Fang Xiang is a bit greedy. Now I have more than 20 Turkic slaves captured by Datang!"

Changsun Wuji chuckled and said slowly.

"Exactly. Fortunately, there are so many slaves. Fortunately, we have to build cities and pave concrete roads. Otherwise, it would be a great loss for me to raise these Turkic slaves this winter!" Du Ruhui, who was standing aside, finally Open your mouth and say.

"Come on, issue an edict!"

At this moment, Li Shimin's eyes were fixed, and he had already made a decision in his heart.

"Order Honglu Qing Tang Jian, General An Xiuren, etc. to go to Turkic to appease and accept Jieli's troops to surrender to our Tang Dynasty, and the Turkic people are capricious and have no credibility at all. In order to show sincerity, let Jieli come in person Chang'an City, surrender to me!"

"In addition, issue an edict to Li Jing to send troops to meet Tang Jian and An Xiuren!"

"In addition, give Li Jing a secret order to send troops to protect Tang Jian and An Xiuren. If Jieli doesn't follow my order, he can act accordingly and wipe out Jieli in one fell swoop. Don't let Jieli escape. I want to see you soon Humans, to die is to see a corpse!"

"..."

Li Shimin issued several edicts in succession.

Soon, Honglu Qing Tang Jian, who had earlier experience as an envoy to Turks, went to Turks under the escort of General An Xiuren.

He was not dissatisfied with Emperor Li Tang's sending these two people to accept his Khan's surrender.

Hongluqing Tang Jian, who had experience as an envoy to Turks earlier, is still serving as Hongluqing, and is the Duke of Juguo in the Tang Dynasty.

And the other rough-looking An Xiuren is also the Duke of the Tang Dynasty, and he is also from the Sogdian tribe!
It's just that what makes Zhishisili envious are the clothes worn by the envoys sent by the emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Although neither is expensive silk, it looks much more comfortable than silk, and it is very warm.

Even the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who accompanied them all wore the same style of clothes, and they also wore such comfortable clothes on their hands, which was extremely extravagant.Judging by his expression, he is not cold at all when marching in the cold wind.

Sensing the curious eyes that Zhishenli had looked at frequently along the way, a smile flashed in Tang Jian's eyes.

Immediately after, he discussed with An Xiuren who was traveling with him, and when he stopped for a rest, he called Zhishisili over.

"The general has been watching our clothes all the way, but you are curious about the clothes we are wearing?"

Tang Jian asked directly.

Hearing this, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Zhishili's face, but then he chuckled and asked directly.

"The Duke of Ju is indeed very smart. I remember that when the Duke of Ju came to Turkic a few years ago, he was still wearing silk clothes. Unexpectedly, in just a few years, not only the Duke of Ju and other nobles of the Tang Dynasty wore this kind of clothing. Clothes, even the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty can wear this kind of clothing with them, and even wear this kind of clothing with their hands!"

"I don't know, the general, but this is a cotton coat, which was invented by my King Jin of the Tang Dynasty. As long as we wear this kind of clothes, even if we stand in the cold wind, we will be as warm as inside a house.

And the clothes we wear on our palms are gloves, which are also very warm.Soldiers wear gloves, not only to keep their hands from freezing, but also shockproof and prevent injuries! "

Tang Jian explained in detail.

"This kind of cotton coat actually has this effect?"

Zhi lost his mind and couldn't help but widen his eyes, with a look of surprise.

"Exactly!"

Tang Jian chuckled and nodded slowly.

"If the general doesn't believe it, you can give it a try!"

"Can someone wear this kind of clothing?"

Dazed for a moment, he glanced at An Xiuren who was standing aside in surprise, and couldn't believe it.

"Why not?"

Tang Jian smiled heartily, "Anyway, Jieli Khan has surrendered to the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. In a few days, all Turkic people will become citizens of the Tang Dynasty. The general just tried on this clothes, who would say anything Four!"

"Hahaha, Duke Ju is still as cheerful as ever!"

Zhi lost his mind and laughed all over his face.

As soon as Tang Jian waved, a guard beside him quickly took a set of large cotton clothes.

Seeing this, Zhishisili was not polite, and directly replaced it.

Even put on gloves.

"Duke Ju really didn't lie to me, this kind of cotton coat is really comfortable and warm!"

Zhi Shisan moved his body, at the same time he casually picked up the steel knife that the personal guard put aside, and swung it vigorously a few times.

Suddenly, he couldn't help but think of something, and chopped down a tree that was as thick as a neck.

After one cut, he couldn't help but be surprised that he lost his mind, and he didn't feel any resistance.

Is it...

Thinking about it, he quickly stared and looked towards the tree.

As a breeze blew, the tree fell down along with the wind.

At the same time, a smooth section is exposed.
