Chapter 789
On the Iron Mountain Wasteland, the flames dispersed the thick fog and burned half of the sky red. In the east, the morning light had already appeared, and it was almost dawn.

Yinghefu and the others led their army into the Turkic camp, and they have been fighting fiercely for nearly an hour.Then the Zhao army's infantry corps, which came to hide and kill, also gradually approached the foot of Iron Mountain.This infantry corps is composed of Shiwei, Khitan, Mohe and Han infantry. The Han army marched neatly and orderly, but the attack of various tribes seemed chaotic.

Li Chongjiu rode his horse forward on the snow, and at this time, the fast horses in front of them reported one after another, reporting to Li Chongjiu that several Turkic camps were broken one by one.Now several generals are leading the cavalry to go deep into the assault.

Several generals have already started to congratulate Li Chongjiu.A general said: "Your Majesty, it seems that Turkic can't stand it anymore."

Li Chongjiu waved his hand and said: "The most elite Turkic attached cavalry has not been wiped out, and it is not yet possible to say victory. The speed of the front army is still too slow. Pass the order, and the infantry will speed up their advance."

Xue Wanche said with a smile: "Your Majesty is too cautious. The Turkic main force has completely collapsed. Even if Jieli has a detachment cavalry, how can he turn the tide of the battle? It's just that we didn't expect that the Turks ruled the grassland for so many years, and they were defeated by us in one battle." , it looks like it’s just a paper tiger, but we’ve been afraid of it for so many years.”

Li Chongjiu looked at the flames in the distance, and said to Xue Wanche: "The Turks in Jieli are different from those in Chuluo. Breaking the Turks is what I expected. If Jieli can regroup 20 cavalry and fight me decisively, the outcome will be won." It is still unknown, but unfortunately the Turks themselves have already been torn apart, this cannot be defeated, so I have nothing to say."

Li Chongjiu recalled that when Li Tang defeated the Turks, in the first year of Zhenguan, the power of the two parties was still very different. Li Shimin was forced to sign the Weishui alliance and bowed his head to Jieli.

But only two years later, Li Tang was defeated by the Turks.In just two years, Li Tang's national strength has recovered, but it has not yet reached the point where it has advanced by leaps and bounds.The merits of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in his entire life were only to expel the Huns to Mobei. At that time, Emperor Wu of the Han had the accumulation of the two emperors, Wen and Jing, to defeat the Turks with the power of the Han Dynasty.Therefore, rather than saying that the Turkic defeat was in the hands of Li Tang, it should be the internal chaos of the Turkic.

And Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty also relied on the civil strife in the East and West Turks to defeat the Turks, and only then did the Sui Dynasty flourish.

At this moment, the front came to report: "Your Majesty, an envoy who claimed to be a Turk was caught on the front of the army."

Li Chongjiu said: "Bring it up."

"promise."

Not long after, the Turkic envoys came, and when they saw Li Chongjiu, they said, "Emperor of the Han Dynasty, our Jieli Khan sent me to ask you to surrender last night, but I was only halfway there when your Zhao army suddenly attacked, please Your Majesty! The decree is to stop the attack, and I, East Turk, are willing to enlist my troops and submit to Zhao. This is a letter written by Jieli Khan to His Majesty."

Speaking of which, the Turkic envoy handed Xie Li's personal letter to Li Chongjiu.

After Li Chongjiu tore open the letter immediately, he browsed through it immediately. In this letter, Jieli spoke humbly and claimed to be a criminal minister. country, for its drive.

After reading the letter, Li Chongjiu looked at the Turkic envoy's begging eyes, and said to the other party: "Your Majesty, please order immediately! From now on, we will be your most loyal servants."

Hearing only two beeps, Li Chongjiu tore the letter paper into two sections.

Seeing this, the Turkic envoy hurriedly said in shock: "Your Majesty, what is your reason?"

Li Chongjiu said: "Jieli's real surrender, I still don't agree, let alone a false surrender!"

The Turkic envoy was too shocked to speak.

"I won't kill you, go down! Today is the last day of Erturk Khan Court here!"

Speaking of this, Li Chongjiu looked at the burning Turkic Khan Court in the distance.
When the Zhao army made a surprise attack, Xieli was not asleep. He was worrying about whether Li Chongjiu would agree to the success or failure of the envoys sent to Zhao.Xieli thought about it all night, and he analyzed the gains and losses very clearly.

At this time, there was a commotion down the mountain, and the warning sound of the horn horn broke the silence in the middle of the night.
Jieli jumped up from the collapse immediately, and rushed out of the tent without putting on his clothes, but saw the Turkic army camp under the Iron Mountain, flames were everywhere, and countless explosions sounded!

Under the light of the fire, countless Zhao Jun cavalry frantically poured into the camp of the Turkic Army.Countless Turkic soldiers stood up to resist in panic, but they retreated steadily.In several large camps down the mountain, Zhao Jun's cavalry were rampant, and no one could stop them.
"What's going on here?" Jieli was shocked and angry.

Zhao Deyan and several Turkic generals came together and said: "Khan, Zhao Jun's night attack has already broken through the outer camp."

Jieli was shocked when he heard the words, and immediately asked: "What about our troops? Why didn't they resist?"

A Turkic general said: "Several camps with generals in the outer periphery have been breached, and there is no way to save them. Only the attached cavalry guarding the camp of the Chinese army and the Tuojie army in the Shannan camp have not yet been destroyed. The Zhao army is attacking. The rest of the ministries have already been thrown into chaos, and I don't think the forwards of the Zhao army's cavalry will attack here soon."

Xieli couldn't believe it when he heard this, and his main force just collapsed like this.

As soon as the words fell, there was a sound of horseshoes outside the tent, followed by the sound of countless bowstrings collapsing!
"Khan be careful."

Several confidant generals stepped forward and rushed Xieli to him.

Random arrows struck, and several Turkic soldiers fell to the ground with strokes.

"Let go of me!" Jie Li shouted as he got up from the ground.

A Turkic general stepped forward and said: "Khan, the one who attacked our camp is General Qin Qiong of the Zhao Army. This man is extremely brave. Khan must not be careless!"

Blue veins popped out on Jie Li's forehead and said: "Listen to the sound of horseshoes, Zhao Jun only has a few hundred riders, you are so frightened, send an order to shoot him back!"

After Xieli said this, all the attached soldiers near the camp fired with bows!In the darkness, the horse neighed, followed by the sound of falling horses.

In this way, the Turkic army's mind is a little bit more stable.

The soldiers of the Turkic Affiliated Army are the elite of the cavalry in the grasslands. They usually shoot bows and arrows, and they can reach two hundred steps.The Zhao Jun cavalry outside the formation just now obviously did not expect that the Turkic cavalry had such a strong bow, so they suffered a disadvantage.

After repelling Zhao Jun's attack camp.

Jie Li immediately got on his horse and shouted: "You have seen General Zhao Jun, that's all. We are the most valiant warriors on the grasslands. Send an order now, follow me to fight and break out of the encirclement!"

"Yes."

The Turkic soldiers shouted in unison.

Right now, the golden wolf banner moved slowly, countless detachment cavalry wearing iron armor flocked to the banner, and the ten thousand Tuojie elite soldiers at the foot of the mountain on the other side had also arrived.

In addition, Tong Teqin and Hu Teqin also led their troops to join forces with Jieli.
