Great Warriors of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 893 Abandonment
"Surrender or die!"

Persevering in thinking, he brought back the last reply of the Great Qin Emperor.

In the castle of the military town on the mountain, there was a dead silence.

"Break out, the whole army break out!"

Jie Li roared with red eyes.

But no one answered him.

They went south from early summer, and it was already autumn.

In a blink of an eye, it is almost August. At this time, the morale of the 10 horses on the mountain is low. They have eaten less than half of the horses, and there are still a lot of horses left. It's a little oily.

Even if Turkic horses are recognized as easy to raise, have enough stamina to burst out, and do not pick feed, but there is no added feed, and they eat leaves and grass roots every day, it is still unbearable. After eating here for so long, the grass roots and leaves are all eaten up.

Now that these horses are still alive, it is no longer easy, but the riding is definitely not as good as before, and even after a fierce battle, it is estimated that many horses will die of exhaustion.

There is still no news about Kang Sumi.

Li Yuan, Dou Jiande, and Liang Shidu didn't come to help either.

There is no hope for them.

But Jieli still doesn't want to surrender, he wants to break out, as long as he can run back to Mobei, even if all the soldiers and horses here are gone, he still has a chance to make a comeback.

Just no response.

Everyone is numb and full of despair for the future.

The emperor of Daqin was extremely heartless and ruthless this time, rejecting their request for peace, and even not allowing them to surrender.In the past, if the battle was defeated, a surrender could end the war, but this time, the emperor has become extremely tough.

The generals dispersed.

Jieli sat helplessly in the tent.

Princess Yicheng came in.

"Kedun, do I really want to kneel down to Luo Cheng and beg for mercy?"

"It's useless for you to kneel down and beg for mercy. Luo Cheng will definitely kill you and then destroy the Turkic Khanate." Princess Yicheng pointed out mercilessly.

Jie Li clenched his fists, "Then what should I do? Sit and wait for death?"

"Khan, you can only break through."

"Those who can't get out, all the passes are guarded to death, just like the beginning and end of the year, there is no way to go." Jieli said in despair.

"As long as you are willing to break through, there is still a chance. The Great Wall pass is only to intercept a large group of troops. If it is just a small cavalry squad, then there are many beast trails in the mountains, and there is still a chance to climb the mountains and pass through the Great Wall."

"How can the Qingqi team escape the pursuit of the Qin army?"

"That's better than complaining here. How will you know if you don't have a chance if you don't try? Jieli, cheer up, as long as you return to Mobei, you will still be the Great Khan of the Turkic people. There are hundreds of thousands of tents in Mobei. You can still raise an army of 20 or even [-]."

Jieli shook his head.

"Hundreds of thousands of tents? It's true, but there are still so many young and strong Turkic men. When I went south, I lost 30 troops. I went south this time and lost another 20. Even if Kang Sumi's 5 people It’s still there, and I returned to Mobei, but there are no young people in the tents of the Mobei tribes, they are all young and old, and the rest are women and children.”

"Boys and old men can also fight, and even women can ride horses. As long as we are in the desert, Luo Cheng can't kill us all. If we can't fight, we can escape. It is impossible for the army to gather tens of thousands of people to encircle and suppress us like in Daibei. There is no Great Wall pass there, and no one can stop the Turks on the grassland. Ten years later, the teenagers have become strong warriors , their bows and spears are the regrown minions of the wolves."

night.

The Turkic people took advantage of the night to break out of the siege, and there were flames everywhere, and the sound of killing was everywhere.

That night, about half of the Turkic people rushed down the mountain, trying to break through the barriers of the trenches, and the fighting continued until dawn.

After dawn, the Turks were driven back down the mountain again, leaving behind thousands of corpses.

The Turkic Tengjin who returned to the mountain suddenly found that Jieli Khan and Ketun had disappeared.

"Did you die in battle?"

But I asked everywhere, but I didn't hear that they were killed in battle.

Finally, a wounded attached wolf guard told them that after the battle last night, Jieli and Ke Dun changed into Qin army's armor and banner, and brought a group of attached wolves who also put on the Qin army's armor. Rider took advantage of the confusion and went down the mountain.

As for whether they managed to get out, he didn't know, because he was injured, abandoned, and then rescued back to the mountain.

"Khan ran away?"

Little Khan Ashina Suni was stunned on the spot. He was Jieli's uncle, Qimin Khan's same mother and brother, and was named Little Khan by Jieli.

He never expected that Xie Li left everyone and ran away alone.Even if we want to break through, we must break through together.

"What kind of khan is he!"

Suni was furious and shouted loudly.

"Changshengtian abandoned us, Xieli abandoned us!"

After working for a long time, nearly 5 people fought all night last night, but Jieli tricked them into covering him from escaping.

It is possible for Xieli to run away now, but they are not trapped here.

Last night's breakout, half of the people did not participate in it. They didn't want to fight at all, because they knew it was useless.

Now that Xieli ran away, everyone's morale plummeted.

"Surrender, or everyone will starve to death here." Breaking through the siege last night, thousands of people died, but tens of thousands of horses died.

Those hungry war horses have run out of oil and their lamps are dry.

Everyone looked at Sunny.

As soon as Jieli ran away, Suni lost his status here and was most respected.

Sunny was panting heavily, unable to calm down for a long time.

In the end, after much deliberation, I couldn't find a better way.

"Go down."

After Su Nishi uttered these two words, his whole body collapsed there as if his muscles and bones had been pulled out.

Zhishili was asked by everyone to go down the mountain to ask for surrender.

He rode his horse through the battlefield left after the breakout battle last night. Feathered arrows were everywhere, and a thick layer was stuck on the ground, like strange crops that grew overnight.

And under these feathered arrows, there are layers of corpses of Turkic warriors, and many fallen horses. Some horses died from being hit by arrows, and more died from vomiting blood and foaming.

The ground was stained a dark purple with dried blood.

Swarms of flies were flying and buzzing, and there were vultures circling in the sky.

Holding a white flag high, Zhisisili came to the front of the moat wall alone and hesitantly.

He shouted at Qin Jun protruding from behind the earth wall.

"I am the one who lost my mind. I was ordered by the little Khan Ashina Suni to come and surrender on behalf of the Turkic soldiers on the mountain."

"Let's surrender."

After hearing this, the team leader behind the earth wall turned around and ran back.

a long time.

A general came to the wall.

"Put down your weapons, take off your armor, put your hands up and hold your head, line up down the mountain, and surrender unconditionally."

The loud voice echoed, and he lost his mind, and he was in a daze for a long time without answering.

The general didn't speak any more, and the air was extremely quiet for a while.

a long time.

It was only when he lost his mind that he finally came back to his senses. He nodded with difficulty, "We surrender unconditionally, and we will come down the mountain immediately. Please don't shoot arrows, don't shoot arrows!"
