Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 889

At dusk, the setting sun was like blood, just like a bloody battlefield. It was only a few miles wide, but in an area nearly ten miles long, the blood everywhere was darker than the setting sun.

The Turkic cavalry outside the formation still refused to retreat, and gathered together ready to move. Tuli Khan looked at him a few times, took a deep breath, turned his head, and glanced at the faces of Wen Yanbo, Dou Gui, Li Daoxuan, and Su Dingfang one by one, and finally It landed on Li Shan's face, "What do you want?"

"Don't you know, brother?" Li Shan put on a surprised expression, and then said seriously: "It has been stated in the letter long ago that you and I are bound to Jinlan and become brothers. You are not kind, but Gu will never be unrighteous!"

Tuli Khan's face turned blue and then pale, and he couldn't hold back after holding back, "You are nothing more than looking at the civil strife in Turkic!"

"Hey, brother...as long as you click, as long as you click." Li Shan's smile is as gentle as a spring breeze, "Ashina Sheer's vitality will be seriously injured in this battle. If my brother can take power, the two countries will stop fighting. Wouldn't it be good? ?”

Tuli Khan sneered, "If I kill She'er, would that be the best?"

"If elder brother is willing to offer Ashina Sheer's head..." Li Shan made a gesture of great joy, and said, "I will report to His Majesty, and ask for the canonization of Khan for elder brother."

There are actually a lot of khans on the grasslands. If the leader of a small tribe is shameless, he can call himself a small khan. But since the Northern Qi and Northern Zhou Dynasties, the real great khans on the grassland are generally conferred by the Central Plains Dynasty, and they will marry the Central Plains Even if there is no canonization, the daughter of the royal family must be the wife of the royal family... Jieli Khan is almost 40 years old when he inherits the throne. Could it be that he has never married a wife?

From this point of view, it makes sense that the former Shibi Khan, Chuluo Khan, Jieli Khan, and the current Dubu Khan were enemies with the Tang Dynasty. Their wives are the same person. Yicheng of the former Sui Dynasty Princess.

At this time, Wen Yanbo suddenly interjected: "Your Highness, you should think twice."

"What do you mean by Lord Yanbo?" Li Shan said angrily, "Gu and Tuli Khan are the best friends of eight pilgrimages to Jinlan. Fighting on the battlefield is really helpless. Do you still have to use a knife and an ax now?"

Looking at this scene, Tuli Khan simply looked up at the sky, and didn't even bother to pay attention... Pretentious!
Li Daoxuan also said: "Huairen, the chief of the enemy country, whether to kill or release, please ask your majesty."

"It's true..." Li Shan hesitated, and said helplessly, "But Ashina Sheer..."

"This person formed an alliance with Ashina Sheer, and went south to invade the territory hand in hand!" Wen Yanbo yelled softly: "What's more, he broke the alliance twice, how can he win the trust?!"

"Does your Highness know the story of the wolf in Zhongshan?" Chang'an ordered Li Ganyou to come forward and said, "Zhao Jianzi hunted in Zhongshan, and the wolf fled with feathers and arrows. At that time, Dongguo protected him, but after the wolf was born, he would eat it back."

Everyone looked sideways, Wen Yanbo stroked his beard and thought hard... As expected of the Longxi Li family, he had never read this collection of books.

Uh, Li Ganyou hasn't read it either... Li Shanqi brought it up when he was chatting a few days ago, saying that Tuli Khan is a Zhongshan wolf. This allusion is about the Spring and Autumn Period, but it actually came from the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

Tuli Khan was also well versed in Sinology, and upon hearing this, he said angrily, "Last year Guji Town, if I hadn't stamped your feet, how could you, Li Huairen, have defeated Jieli?"

"After the war, Li Yaoshi broke the promise and gave food, spirits, salt, and cloth to Jieli. Didn't Li Tang break the promise first?!"

Li Shan turned pale with shock, "Is Li Yaoshi so unwise?"

Xue Wanche and Zhang Shigui both turned their heads, they couldn't bear to watch it any longer, didn't you specifically explain it before you left Daizhou?

In fact, returning Tuli Khan is inevitable. Li Shan understands this, all the generals understand, and even Tuli Khan himself knows it well... Otherwise, he would not have taken the initiative to run out and be captured alive. Explain your identity carefully.

In fact, Tuli Khan was not hiding from the Tang army, but was hiding from Ashina Sheer... I was really afraid that he would kill him after the big defeat.

"That's all, that's all!" Li Shan waved his hand and said, "That day I married Jinlan, today I will release my elder brother, but..."

Tuli Khan sighed, "Tell me, what do you want?"

Li Shan laughed, "Brother, you are being polite, you are being polite..."

The laughter gradually stopped, Li Shan looked around, the corners of his mouth twitched, and everyone including Tuli Khan stared at him with strange eyes.

Who doesn't know you!

At the beginning of last year, Jieli Khan paid a great price to redeem Yugu She... You, Li Huairen, took the opportunity to slap a pen!
Li Shan coughed twice, "It doesn't take much... It's just that the cavalry is quite worn out in this battle..."

"Four thousand good horses!" Tuli Khan made a decisive decision, "But tonight..."

"Of course." Li Shan said kindly, "I will send you home tonight. Elder brother will stay by the Hongshui River tomorrow, and my younger brother will send someone to take over."

If Tuli Khan is really detained and even sent back to Chang'an, even if a lot has been negotiated, the situation in Wuyuan County is likely to undergo a major change. The purpose of Shi Na Sheer's check and balance.

Beside the hill, Wang Junhao and Zhu Wei stood across the sword. Li Shan took Tuli Khan and picked up two stones and sat down. Another personal guard brought a basket of steamed buns. Li Shan casually threw one over and said with a smile: "Is Duke Guan still alive?"

"Dead." Tuli Khan bit the steamed bun, and said bluntly: "He died by slaying himself. The previous Xiangyi King Li Shenfu and Pingyuan County Duke Duan Decao were all captured, and they are still in the hands of Liang Shidu. But if you want to change back...it's unlikely."

"Why?" Li Shan looked indifferent, these three people have nothing to do with him, and they are not from the line of King Qin, not to mention that he and Li Shenfu have a little bit of trouble.

"Master Liang claims to be the Son of Heaven, so he has to give it to Khan." Tuli Khan snorted, "Earlier, he was attached to Jieli, but now he is attached to Dubu, and even colluded with Princess Yicheng."

"Master Liang has established the country and proclaimed himself emperor, so Princess Yicheng is still on good terms with him?" Li Shan was a little surprised.

Tuli Khan sneered and said: "The foundation of the Great Sui Dynasty is not ruined in the hands of Liang Shidu. Princess Yicheng only wishes Li Tang to be destroyed."

To put it bluntly, Princess Yicheng also knew that restoration was impossible, but she had a bitter hatred for Datang, so she had to repair it with Liang Shidu, the only separatist force in the world today.

"By the way, before going south, Princess Yicheng wants your head."

"What?" Li Shan was speechless, "Could it be that the redemption was set up early last year, and my younger brother asked for..."

"Is there such a thing?" Tuli Khan grunted before explaining: "After the First Battle of Cangtouhe last year, the Tang army ransacked Zuoyun County. Princess Yicheng's younger brother Yang Shanjing and his two sons and nephew were was killed."

Glancing at Li Shan, Tuli Khan added: "Since Empress Xiao entered the grassland, she has been living in Yunzhou. On that day, Empress Xiao, King Sui and hundreds of clans were all in Yunzhong County and Zuoyun County of Yunzhou."

Li Shan was speechless, this blame is a bit wronged.
