Mordor stopped attacking and returned to Du Qi's side to protect Du Qi. The soldiers at the side quickly went up and took down Zhi Shili and Yuan Junzhang.
Li Daen looked at Moledo and was surprised. He praised, "Young Master Du, this guard of yours is so brave that even ten thousand men would not be able to take him on. If placed on the battlefield, he would definitely be an invincible existence, capable of killing generals and seizing flags. "
Mordor said, "I won't go to the battlefield. I'll stay by your side. Wherever you go, I'll be there. "
Du Qi smiled and changed the topic. "Duke Dingxiang has taken down Yuan Junzhang and Zhi Shili. Everyone in the valley has surrendered. Next, we can deal with the battlefield. In this battle, we didn't lose a single soldier, and we won a complete victory! "
Li Daen was also very excited. He said, "Yes, this battle is too awesome. Without losing a single soldier, they had won the battle. When the news spreads, the imperial court will be shocked. I've never been so relaxed when fighting the Turks. "
Du Qi said, "Actually, we won this battle because of Lady Liu. If not for her spreading the news, Yuan Junzhang and Zhi Shili wouldn't have advanced so rashly. "
After a pause, Du Qi continued, "Jade Talisman Peak is an area where it's easy to be ambushed. From start to finish, the other party didn't send anyone to scout and didn't advance cautiously. That's why we won. We won this battle because of luck. "
Li Daen said, "Whether it was luck or not, we've won now. We've won this battle! "
Du Qi said, "That's right."
After Li Daen took down Zhi Shili and Yuan Junzhang, he sent soldiers to extinguish the fire at the entrance. He took all the surrendered Turks and Yuan Junzhang's soldiers into custody.
By the time he finished all this, it was already close to the afternoon. At this time, the battle report was also reported. In this battle, as many as 29,000 people were captured, and close to 6,000 were killed.
These people who had died were all killed by bows and arrows, crossbows, or even in the sea of fire.
Li Daen didn't have the slightest bit of pity for the dead. This was because this was a battlefield. As long as one was on the battlefield, there would be casualties. This was a very normal thing.
The group of people retreated from the Jade Talisman Peak and only returned to Yanmen County City when it was almost midnight.
A large group of people entered the city.
All the captives were kept under control.
Ding Xiang Jun Wang Fu, Main Hall.
Li Daen's expression was extremely relaxed. Looking at Du Qi and Zhangsun Shunde, he said seriously, "Young Master Du, Great General Zhangsun, today's victory is all thanks to your planning. If it weren't for the two of you, we wouldn't have won today's victory. "
Zhangsun Shunde said, "Second-rank Prince Dingxiang, this old man is merely participating. The specific plan was proposed by Erlang Du. The real hero is Erlang Du. "
He was rather impressed by Du Qi.
Despite his young age, Du Qi was, in fact, extremely intelligent.
Du Qi said, "Great General Zhangsun is too polite. How could there be much credit for me? We were able to win this time because we worked together. The specific arrangements were all made by Second-rank Prince Dingxiang. "
Li Daen said, "Young Master Du, no need to be modest. Forget it, let's not talk about the battle achievements for now. It's just that now that so many people have been captured, how should we deal with them? "
Zhangsun Shunde's gaze fell on Du Qi and asked, "Erlang Du, what do you think?"
Du Qi said, "Great General Zhangsun, how could I have any thoughts? You are a great general of the imperial court, you should speak first. Moreover, Second-rank Prince Dingxiang is in charge of this matter. In the end, the Second-rank Prince Dingxiang has to make the decision. "
Li Daen said, "This prince has no idea, that's why I'm asking. Great General Zhangsun, Young Master Du, don't be modest and don't decline. Please speak freely. "
Zhangsun Shunde said, "Erlang Du, you've always been intelligent. Tell me, what do you think we should do this time? Give us your suggestions and we'll discuss it. "
Li Daen also looked at Du Qi.
They were all waiting for Du Qi to speak.
Seeing this, Du Qi was no longer modest and said seriously, "In the current situation, in my opinion, Yuan Junzhang is not a cause for concern. We can remove those who should be removed from Yuan Junzhang's forces and incorporate those who should be incorporated. As for Yuan Junzhang himself, we can temporarily detain him together with Zhi Shili. As for the Turkic captives, we can't incorporate them or kill them. We can only detain them for now. "
Li Daen said, "It's not appropriate to keep detaining them like this!"
Du Qi said, "Therefore, this involves the diplomatic mission to the Turkic Khaganate. Now that we've achieved a great victory, the conditions are ripe for us to go on a diplomatic mission to the Turkic Khaganate. Next, we can reach an agreement with the Turkic Khaganate and temporarily stabilize them. This diplomatic mission will bring up the issue of how to deal with the Turkic captives. This is also our trump card. "
Zhangsun Shunde said, "Erlang Du Qi, I have some thoughts on this matter you mentioned."
Du Qi said, "Please speak, Great General Zhangsun."
Zhangsun Shunde said seriously, "Although Zhi Shili and Yuan Junzhang are in the hands of the Dingxiang County King. But the problem is that once we depart, we will be detained by Xieli in the end. So much so that Xieli will use us to threaten the Dingxiang County King to release Zhi Shili and the others. When the time comes, the Dingxiang County King will not be easy to deal with. "
Du Qi said, "Great General Zhangsun, when it comes to this step, it's a gamble."
Zhangsun Shunde said, "Gamble on what?"
Du Qi gritted his teeth, his eyes showed a hint of seriousness, he said in a deep voice, "Gamble that Xieli will not dare to detain us, gamble that Xieli will not dare to send troops to attack the Gate of Yanmen, gamble that Xieli will not give up on Zhi Shili and the thousands of Turkic people."
"When the time comes, once the situation mentioned by Great General Zhangsun occurs, tell Xieli that once he detains us, then the Dingxiang County King at the Gate of Yanmen will kill Zhi Shili and the rest of the Turkic people."
"As the Turkic Khagan, Xieli is not someone without wisdom. I gamble that he will not take the risk of losing Zhi Shili and the others and detain us. "
Du Qi said seriously, "For him, detaining us but losing the lives of Zhi Shili and the others, losing the support of the Turkic people, this is not a good deal."
Zhangsun Shunde thought for a moment and also understood, he nodded and said, "Your analysis is reasonable. Once Xieli does not consider Zhi Shili and the others, when the news spreads, not many people on the grassland will dare to serve him. "
Du Qi said, "That's what I mean."
Li Daen's face was filled with a bright smile, he said, "What I mean is, I don't need to do anything now. I only need to arrange people to strengthen the defense of the Gate of Yanmen to prevent the Turkic people from attacking, right? "
"Yes!"
Du Qi nodded and answered.
Hearing this, Li Daen's heart was completely at ease, he was no longer worried about the changes in the situation in Daizhou. He picked up the wine bottle in front of him and said, "Great General Zhangsun, Young Master Du, this King salutes you."
"Please!"
Li Daen picked up the wine bottle, he was in a very happy mood, he raised his head and drank it all. After submitting to the Tang dynasty, although he was conferred the title of King, although he was in charge of Daizhou. In reality, Li Daen only barely managed to defend Daizhou, he did not make many contributions.
In this battle, he gained countless military merits.
