After receiving Du Qi's order, Mordor ignored the surrounding Turkic soldiers and rushed out with the Damascus Iron Staff. The Turkic soldiers that came tonight were all infantrymen. There were no cavalrymen among them.
After all, this was the Turkic royal court. There were tents everywhere. Even if the cavalrymen came, they wouldn't be able to do anything.
Therefore, they only brought infantrymen for a night attack. However, even if the five hundred infantrymen attacked, they wouldn't be able to break the defense of the Tang dynasty's army in a short time.
"Kill!"
Mordor rushed forward with the Damascus Iron Staff. While he was charging, a Turkic soldier came charging at him.
"Die!"
The Turkic soldier had a savage look in his eyes. He swung his saber at Mordor. Under the illumination of the surrounding flames, the falling saber flickered with a cold light.
Moledo stopped in his tracks and swung his long staff horizontally. It collided with the descending blade.
Clang!
There was an ear-piercing sound. The domineering power of the Damascus Iron Staff shattered the saber with a crack. The cold metal cudgel continued forward, and with a loud 'peng', it smashed into the head of the Turkic soldier.
With a pop, the Turkic soldier's head was smashed. Blood splattered, and the Turkic soldier fell to the ground.
Mordor killed with one move and continued to charge forward. He was like a human tank. Wherever the Damascus Iron Staff passed, anyone who stood in front of Mordor was smashed to death by the Damascus Iron Staff.
Whether it was the Wootz Steel Rod smashing into the head or the body, they would all die with a single strike.
After a series of killings, Mordor's face and body were covered in blood. Soaked in blood, he looked like a demonic god.
Originally, there were many people who wanted to stop Mordor. However, after Mordor killed in a short time, those who stood in front of Mordor were frightened and retreated.
No one dared to stop Mordor anymore. When Mordor rushed forward with the Damascus Iron Staff, he quickly closed the distance between him and Gulu. The distance between them was less than ten steps.
Gulu was afraid of Mordor.
He was traumatized.
After all, Gulu had led the cavalry to kill Du Qi. When he fought with Mordor, he was defeated in one blow and his leg was broken. Even now, his leg injury hadn't recovered.
Therefore, when Gulu saw Mordor getting closer and closer to him, he was terrified. He quickly shouted, "Dodge! Take me away! Don't let him catch up with us!"
The people around him carried the carriage with the intention of dodging. However, how could the people carrying the carriage outrun Mordor? In the blink of an eye, Mordor had already caught up with Gulu's carriage.
Mordor saw Gulu lying on the carriage and grinned.
That smile was full of killing intent.
Gulu saw Mordor's smile, especially when he saw the Damascus Iron Staff smashing down. He shouted, "Don't kill me!"
His drunkenness sobered up at once.
There was no more drunkenness.
Originally, Gulu's heart was filled with endless resentment towards Du Qi. In addition, he drank wine and was urged by the people around him. Drinking boosted his courage. Gulu ignored his own strength and led the people to kill.
However, the siege of hundreds of people couldn't stop Mordor's charge.
Mordor heard Gulu's pleas for mercy. He ignored it and continued to smash down with the Iron Staff. With a smack, the iron rod landed on Gulu's head. Immediately, Gulu's head shattered. His tall and sturdy body twitched twice before he lost all signs of life.
Gulu was dead!
This scene was seen by the Turkic soldiers. They were all dumbfounded. This was the Turkic territory. Du Qi dared to let people kill Gulu. How bold! And he continued to kill.
The Turkic soldiers were all terrified.
Suddenly, someone shouted to retreat. As soon as this voice was heard, it destroyed everyone's fighting spirit. No one dared to stay and fight. They all started to prepare to retreat.
However, when these Turkic soldiers were preparing to retreat, suddenly, a large group of people came from not far away.
This group of people blocked the path of retreat.
The one in the lead was shockingly Xieli.
Xieli's face was cold and gloomy. His face was darker than the bottom of a pot. During the day, when he summoned Gulu, he had already beaten and punished Gulu, ordering him not to cause trouble. Unexpectedly, Gulu's legs were broken and his buttocks were beaten thirty times. Yet, he still wanted to kill Du Qi.
This made Xieli very angry.
He was angry not because Gulu killed Du Qi, but because Gulu kept on giving orders and ignoring his orders.
This was the key.
Because this would ruin Xieli's plan.
Xieli led his soldiers over. Looking at the Turkic soldiers who were about to retreat, he waved his hand and gave the order to attack. In an instant, Xieli's subordinates charged forward. This group of Xieli's personal guards was very strong. In a short time, they killed all the retreating Turkic soldiers.
Xieli's face was still as calm as water. He came to Gulu's side. Looking at Gulu whose head was smashed and whose body was covered in a pool of blood, he frowned and said, "Du Qi, you actually killed Gulu?"
Du Qi said indifferently, "Khan Xieli, do you want me to be killed by Gulu? Speaking of which, Khan's control over the Turkic tribes is really weak! "
"Obviously, you have already given orders to forbid the Turkic tribes to deal with the Tang dynasty's diplomatic corps."
"Now, Gulu is here again."
"Khan Xieli, if you can't make the decision in Turkic, let's just forget about the negotiation. Why don't the Tang dynasty's diplomatic corps immediately retreat overnight and return to the Tang dynasty and stop the negotiation? "
Du Qi said, "What do you think?"
Hearing this, Khan Xieli's face was even gloomier. He felt ashamed. In fact, Khan Xieli had given orders again and again, but his subordinates still didn't listen to his orders. This sort of result caused Khagan Xieli to be incomparably furious.
Especially when he was ridiculed by Du Qi.
He was even more furious.
Originally, when Xieli Khan saw that Gulu was killed, he wanted to give Du Qi a warning. He said that even if Gulu came to invade in the middle of the night, even if Gulu was guilty, he should be the one to kill Gulu. After all, Gulu was his subordinate.
But Du Qi's words made Khan Xieli's face turn black, and he couldn't say anything more.
"Take all the bodies away!"
Khan Xieli ordered.
The soldiers he brought with him quickly took action after receiving the order. Not long after, the soldiers cleaned up the scene. Xieli waved his big sleeves and left with everyone, not staying any longer.
Although there were still puddles of blood left outside the tent, the outside of the tent had quieted down and returned to its original tranquility.
Du Qi brought people back to the tent.
Du Qi and Zhangsun Shunde sat down and let Liu Jian put away the cards for the time being. Du Qi's face was solemn. He looked at Zhangsun Shunde and said, "General, I think there is something wrong with Gulu's attack at night."
Zhangsun Shunde said, "What do you mean?"
Du Qi said, "Although Gulu drank wine, but to cause trouble in the Turkic royal court with no regard for his life, I'm afraid it's not simple. I think that Yang Lichi is behind all of this. "
"But I really don't know how Yang Lizhi incited Gulu, how she provoked him to take the risk."
"You must know, in the current situation, once Gulu takes action, it's extremely dangerous. Gulu's actions will not only be targeted by us, they will also be punished by Xieli. "
Du Qi said, "So, I have some doubts."
Zhangsun Shunde said, "Unfortunately, Xieli didn't look into this matter, and directly took away Gulu's body. Xieli didn't even mention the matter of giving an explanation. I'm afraid our negotiation this time won't go smoothly. "
Du Qi said, "It's normal that it won't go smoothly. If it went smoothly, it would be abnormal. Anyway, we're not in a hurry. Let's just wait for Xieli to summon us. "
"That's true!"
Zhangsun Shunde also nodded in agreement.
After a pause, Zhangsun Shunde said, "Speaking of which, even if Xieli will give us the cold shoulder for a period of time, he will still summon us. But after this period of time, he still wants to see us. When the time comes, it will involve negotiations. What do you think, Erlang? "
Du Qi said, "Our negotiation with Xieli this time is mainly to stabilize the other side. As for the small scale war, what should be fought will still be fought. The most important thing is to stabilize the other side, and use Zhi Shili and the others to stabilize Xieli. With this premise, it's already enough. "
Zhangsun Shunde said with emotion, "It's not easy!"
Du Qi said, "No matter how difficult it is, I think we have to do it. Through Gulu's matter, I think it's not that things can't be planned, there's a place to plan. There's even a chance to weaken the Turks. "
Zhangsun Shunde nodded.
He believed in Du Qi, and he also believed that Du Qi had this ability.
