Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 2040
The thin hemp rope bound the hands and feet tightly, and the trusted soldier asked: "General, how should we deal with this man?"

The guard's face changed, and he really wanted to kill Xiao Siye with a single blow, but he thought about his background and family background, and he was appointed by the imperial court, so he didn't dare to kill him, but he definitely couldn't let him go, he hesitated, and said : "Temporary detention, waiting for my consideration."

"promise!"

Several soldiers stepped forward to lift Xiao Siye up, passed a spear through the hemp rope that bound his hands and feet, carried him down the tower, and threw him into an empty house.

"boom!"

The soldiers were all rough men, and they had no intention of pity for the fragrance and jade, and Xiao Siye was even less fragrant and jade, and he threw it on the ground viciously, splashing a cloud of dust.

It happened that his head landed first, and his forehead touched a piece of wood. Xiao Siye groaned in pain, jumped wildly in front of his eyes, and almost fainted...

Yanmen closed.

Dadu set up the horses and ran at the forefront of the army. Behind him was the sound of strong winds. Tens of thousands of cavalrymen from Xue Yantuo and Teller's ministries followed behind. The momentum was earth-shattering, and they rushed towards the Turkic people who were passing Yanmen Pass like a violent storm. .

The Turks have already blown up their nests...

Seeing that the Tang army stayed behind closed doors, not to mention that they were not allowed to enter the pass to avoid the enemy, the Xue Yantuo people behind them chased after them even more. For a while, she cried for her father and mother, and almost collapsed.

Zhao Deyan was sitting in the carriage, guarded by soldiers sent by Ashina Simo on the left and right, they kept dispersing the Turkic people approaching, and stared at the city with frowning eyebrows.

Why isn't the door open yet?
Could it be that the ancient man had already forgotten his original oath?

That would be troublesome...

Even if he played the Turkic Khan in the palm of his hand, and used his own power to disrupt the foundation of the Turkic Khanate, and eventually led to the overthrow of the Turkic Khanate, he is not a god after all. Far from it.

If that ancient person is unwilling to repay the kindness of the past, I am afraid that I will die here today, and become the soul of Xue Yantuo's sword...

In the carriage, Zhao Deyan couldn't help laughing wryly, but he was relieved.

How can man remember God's calculation?

I escaped the Turks' pursuit for more than ten years, but I didn't expect to die in the hands of Xue Yantuo today...

"The gates are open!"

I don't know who shouted, followed by earth-shattering cheers, and the Turkic people on the left and right rushed towards the closed door like a tide.

Zhao Deyan hurriedly lifted the curtain of the car to look around, and saw that the closed door in the distance was slowly opening, he felt relieved immediately, and often let out a sigh of relief.

In a blink of an eye, he regained that look of a wise man whose wisdom beads were grasping the unfathomable depths.

God is here...

"Stand back! Back off! Anyone who dares to break through the closed door will be killed!"

The cavalry of the Tang army rushed out from the pass to maintain order before closing the gate, and dispersed the Turkic people who tried to break through the pass. Anyone who refused to listen to the dissuasion was killed on the spot.

Human heads flew up one after another, and blood was sprinkled all over the snow, finally calming down the Turkic people who were in frenzy and fear, and gradually calmed down.

"Line up in a queue and enter the customs one by one. If you dare to fight, you will be killed on the spot!"

The ferocious Tang Jun rode a tall horse, the bright armor on his body shone and reflected, and the horizontal knife in his hand was sharp and sharp. He kept riding around and galloping around, gathering the Turkic people in one place. They lined up in a long line and entered the customs in an orderly manner. .

Seeing that the order of the Turks had stabilized, they sent out a team of about 500 fine cavalry, armed with horizontal knives and spears, wearing bright armor, carrying long bows and crossbows, and rode towards the back of the Turks. After forming a formation, Yuan Ting and Yue Zhi waited for Xue Yantuo who came.

Seeing that the Xue Yantuo people had rushed to the place where an arrow could be shot, the leading general of the Tang Army held up the horizontal saber in his hand, and the cavalry behind him all untied the bows and crossbows behind them, drew their bows and set arrows, and swung down the horizontal saber in the general's hand. With a "bang", the bowstring vibrated, and hundreds of arrows flew into the air, shooting at Xue Yantuo's cavalry like dark clouds.

"Herod—"

Da Du She, who was running ahead, was taken aback, and hastily reined in the reins. The horse under his crotch slowed down suddenly, his front hooves were raised high, and he let out a long neigh, and stopped.

"Puff puff"

Spike arrows flew from the air, and they all plunged into the ice and snow in front of the horse, and the white feathers on the tails of the arrows vibrated.

More than a dozen riders were unable to dodge in time, and were shot by arrows. They fell from their horses amidst screams, and fell heavily to the ground, wailing endlessly.

With a gloomy face, Dadu fiercely waved the whip in the air!
Seeing that he could catch up with Ashina Simo and capture him alive, and even kill the Turkic people, the Tang army completely let go of Yanmen Pass and let the Turkic people enter the pass to escape.

Staring at the Yanmen Pass with the open gate in the distance, Dadu set up a heart eager to try. He really wanted to lead the iron cavalry under his command, regardless of his brains, to completely occupy Yanmen Pass, enter the hinterland of Tang Dynasty, and plunder fiercely. Jieli Khan's heroic deeds when he came to the Weishui River are especially beautiful!
However, he knew that the pursuit of the Turkic people until the Yanmen Pass had violated the order of his father Khan, which caused a rift in the relationship between Xue Yantuo and Datang, and it was very likely that Xue Yantuo's attempt to get a marriage with Datang fell through, and he was about to face He was scolded by his father Khan.

If he captures Ashina Simo alive or kills the Turkic people, then the result will naturally be different. Even if the father Khan has to maintain the majesty of the Khan and punish himself, his credit is enough to shine on the grasslands and deserts and become countless Xue Yantuo. The hero in people's minds, laying the foundation for him to compete with Bazhuo for the position of Khan, and he is very likely to become the next hero of Governor Yu's Shanya account.

But now, there is nothing.

As long as you retreat, you will fall short.

If it moves forward, it will be a formal war with Datang.

Whether to advance or retreat, how to choose?
Just as Dadu was hesitating in a trance, one of the Tang troops in the formation broke away from the troops and came slowly. When he arrived at a distance of ten feet from Dadu, he shouted loudly: "This is the important place of Yanmen Pass, the territory of Datang. ! Xue Yantuo brazenly invaded the territory of Tang Dynasty, hunted and killed allies of Tang Dynasty, do you intend to start a war with Tang Dynasty?!"

Dadu kept silent, wavering in his heart, in a dilemma, difficult to choose.

"Second prince! Why don't you just kill him?"

"Yanmen Pass is right in front of you, so many Turkic people are entering the pass, let's rush over, maybe the Tang army won't have time to close the gate..."

"Second prince! Absolutely not! If you start a war with the Tang army without authorization, wouldn't it be a violation of the Great Khan's order?"

"That's right, Ba Zhuo will definitely make trouble, the second prince thinks twice!"

"The second prince..."

"The second prince..."

All the people on the left and right loudly advised them, some thought that the matter had come to an end, it would be better to take a risky gamble, if it really took the Yanmen Pass, it would be a great contribution to heaven!Some advised him to withdraw his troops, otherwise, when the Khan blamed him, he was afraid that disaster would be imminent.

No one thought that the matter has reached the current stage, whether to fight or not, the initiative is no longer in the hands of Xue Yantuo.

Right behind them, on the way of retreat, the Tang army had already set up layers of barriers, trying to keep all the elite of Xue Yantuo on the land of Shuozhou...

*****
There was chaos in Yanmen Pass.

As the most dangerous pass on the Great Wall, Yanmen Pass itself is a huge military camp. Although in recent years, because there are Mayi City and Dingxiang City in the north to resist the invasion of the Hu people in the north, Yanmen Pass has not been attacked by the Hu people for many years, so the troops are stationed Not many, but it can't accommodate more than [-] Turkic old and weak women and children.

What's more, there are more than [-] livestock...

The [-] Tang troops had to prevent the Turks from taking the opportunity to cause chaos and maintain order. They were short-handed, and even the grooms and Huotou troops were used.

As a result, the soldiers guarding Xiao Siye were also transferred away...

"Pooh!"

In the dark room, Xiao Siye struggled to push out the rag from his mouth with his tongue, and took a few quick breaths.

Squinting his eyes to look at the situation inside the house, he listened to the mess of people shouting and neighing outside, and he let out a sigh of relief.

Immediately, the fear in my heart rose unstoppably.

That bastard guard was actually the work of the Turks?How dare you bite back and accuse me of being Xue Yantuo's secret work? The most abominable thing is that the Yanmen Pass has already been run by him like an iron pass, and all the soldiers from top to bottom are obedient to him. Governor Shi said that if you take it down, you will take it down, there is no law in sight, it is unreasonable!

At the same time, he was extremely regretful.

It shouldn't have revealed the Ashina family crest in that guard's hand...

At that moment, why didn't I think more about it?

How stupid...
