On Xieli Khan's face, there was still an expression of disbelief. "Impossible, impossible. Li Shimin just arranged Tang Jian and An Xiuren to deliver the decree, how can he immediately send troops to attack us? Is this true? "
The soldier who reported looked panicked, "It's true, it's absolutely true. Khan, the Tang army is getting closer and closer to us, if we don't retreat, we won't be able to escape. "
Although Xieli Khan was panicking, he knew that he could not panic. His eyes turned, he said in a deep voice, "Men, bring Tang Jian and An Xiuren to me. These two people really deserve to die, they deserve to be killed! "
The soldier went to deliver the order.
Zhili Sili panicked, he shouted, "Khan, please don't kill Tang Jian and An Xiuren!"
Xieli Khan asked, "Why?"
His eyes coldly scrutinized Zhishi Sili. Now that the Tang army was here, Zhishi Sili was the envoy. If Zhishi Sili could not give a reason, he would think that Zhishi Sili was colluding with a foreign country and betraying the Turks.
Zhili Sili quickly explained, "Khan, with our current strength, we've suffered heavy losses. Even if we count the forces of the Shbaroda and the other tribes, we only have tens of thousands of people. "
"Moreover, we've suffered heavy losses, our fighting strength is weak, and the soldiers' morale is gone. Under the current situation, it's impossible to fight against the Tang dynasty army. "
"Under this premise, our first choice is to retreat and escape."
"There's a problem, what if we can't escape?"
"If we kill Tang Jian and An Xiuren, once we can't retreat, and kill the Tang dynasty envoy, we'll definitely die. Of course, if we don't kill An Xiuren and Tang Jian, and retreat from Yin Mountain at the same time, we'll escape the pursuit of the Tang army, then there won't be a problem, Tang Jian's life and death will fall into your hands. "
"Kill or torture, it's all up to you, Khan."
Zhili Sili said, "So, for the time being, my suggestion is to wait and see, what does Khan think?"
Hearing this, Xieli Khan carefully pondered, it seemed to make sense.
Killing the Tang envoy was cutting off their escape route.
Only by sparing Tang Jian and An Xiuren's lives would there be room for reconciliation and a chance of survival.
As Xieli Khagan's advisor, Kang Sumi was also extremely trusted by Xieli Khagan. He hurriedly nodded his head and said, "Khan, I also agree with Zhi Shili's analysis. Right now, we can only keep Tang Jian and An Xiuren's heads. "
Xieli Khan nodded and said, "Alright, we'll do as you say. Withdraw!"
"Yes!"
Kang Sumi and Zhi Shili quickly gave the order to retreat.
With this order, all the Turkic soldiers in the tent began to pack up and prepare to set out. However, on the Turkic side, the vanguard led by Su Dingfang had already arrived before the Turkic soldiers were ready.
Su Dingfang was highly skilled in martial arts and dared to fight and kill.
He was a valiant general under Li Jing.
He was promoted by Li Jing.
He led the vanguard to charge in and led the army to kill back and forth, slaughtering the Turkic soldiers. Even though Su Dingfang did not have many soldiers, Xieli Khan did not dare to stop.
The moment he stopped, the Tang army would immediately charge over.
When Li Jing's army arrived, he would definitely die.
"Withdraw, withdraw quickly!"
Xieli Khan continued to give orders.
As the orders were given, the Turkic army continued to withdraw. However, as they withdrew, they were entangled by the army led by Su Dingfang. In a short time, the Turkic army was unable to withdraw.
As a result, after fighting for a while, Li Jing's army had already arrived.
The moment the army arrived, the Turkic army was defeated like a landslide.
They suffered heavy losses.
Xieli Khan continued to shout for retreat. He led the soldiers to retreat, bringing Tang Jian and An Xiuren with him. After everyone retreated, the Tang army's massacre continued and so did the pursuit.
Du Qi and Li Jing chased together. He looked in the direction Xieli retreated, a cold smile on his lips.
It was impossible for Xieli to escape.
Everything was under control.
Du Qi and Li Jing unhurriedly pursued, while Xieli Khan, Zhi Shili Sili, Kang Sumi and the others were all flustered, their hearts incomparably nervous.
"Retreat, retreat quickly."
Xieli continued to give orders.
Now, he could only think of these two words. He wanted to retreat in the shortest time possible and avoid the pursuers.
The problem was that the Tang army was like a sticky candy that he could not shake off.
After running for nearly two hours, Xieli Khan finally shook off the pursuers behind him and temporarily could not hear the sounds coming from behind. Xieli was also rather tired, so he said, "Rest here!"
After the order was given, everyone stopped and rested.
Tang Jian and An Xiuren were both panicking and in a sorry state.
They were here to appease the Turkic army.
They did not expect that in the blink of an eye, the Turkic army would also be attacked and they were also in danger.
Tang Jian was not a stupid person. Therefore, Tang Jian already understood the intention. The imperial court had arranged for him to be the envoy to appease and numb Xieli Khan. On the other side, Li Jing took the opportunity to attack and caught Xieli Khan off guard.
Tang Jian's expression was slightly bitter.
After all, in the current situation, their situation was quite dangerous.
Xieli Khan arranged for people to bring Tang Jian and An Xiuren over. With a fierce look in his eyes, he gritted his teeth and said, "Tang Jian, An Xiuren, you really deserve to die! The Emperor of the Tang dynasty went back on his words. On the surface, he agreed to our Turkic tribe's submission, but he arranged for people to sneak attack us, causing us to suffer heavy losses. How do you two want to die? "
Although Tang Jian was feeling bitter in his heart, he could not relax at such a time. This was especially true when he was faced with Xieli Khagan's fury. Tang Jian could not afford to panic.
He snorted and said in a deep voice, "Xieli Khan, this is not the Tang dynasty going back on their words. Don't you understand that there can never be too much deception in war? The Tang dynasty is deliberately dealing with you like this. As for Xieli Khan wanting to kill me, I'm afraid you can't do it. The reason is very simple. If you kill me, the Tang army will definitely kill you to avenge me and General An Xiuren. "
"Hahaha …"
Xieli Khan laughed loudly.
In his laughter, there was anger.
Similarly, Xieli Khan was also irritable. He gritted his teeth and said, "The Tang army wants to avenge you. But now, I've already left Yin Mountain. It won't be easy for the Tang army to catch up with me."
Tang Jian said seriously, "The pursuit battle has just begun. Why are you in such a hurry, Xieli Khan? You think you've escaped. But in fact, Li Jing, Manager Li, always plans before acting. Since you've already calculated that Xieli Khan might escape, Manager Li must have a backup plan. In that case, Manager Li definitely has a backup plan. It's impossible for him to let you escape. "
Hearing this, Xieli Khan's expression froze.
Li Jing was indeed powerful. He was even more powerful than Du Qi.
