Chapter 322
Jieli Khan's series of defeats is not because they are weak in Turks.Compared with the beginning of the ascension, the strength of the Turks has increased, but the progress of the Tang Dynasty is far better than that of the Turks, so that they have caught up with the Turks without knowing it, and even surpassed them in some fields.

Xieli has never wanted to admit this, and their proud Turkic people have not realized this.

I still think that the Central Plains people are still a nation that can be bullied by them at will, and they are still so weak, and they also regard the fault as Xieli's incompetence.

Because of this, Xieli couldn't admit defeat and has been holding on. On the one hand, because of the disputes on the grassland, on the other hand, he had to take care of Datang, and on the other hand, he had to entangle with the elusive Qin Feng...

Multi-tasking, the more you use it, the more chaotic it is, which directly leads to the fiasco of Ashinasheer and Zhishensili.After Xieli received the news, he thought hard for many days alone, and finally realized the problem.He was just hesitating all the time, whether to admit defeat, whether to take a big step back, withdraw from the multi-faceted situation, and focus on dealing with Tuli.

After Princess Yicheng revealed the information about the expansion of Qin Feng's military strength, Jieli came to his senses and realized his mistake.

The essence of knowledge left by the ancients is extremely precious. Failure can hone people's will and inspire people's fighting spirit.Being able to face failure calmly and survive failure will inevitably lead to success.

Faced with this disadvantage, Xieli conceded defeat, let go of the Turkic Khan's self-esteem, admitted defeat, and chose to retreat.

Avoiding the edge of the Tang Dynasty, avoiding the invincible sword of Qin Feng, and returning to the more northern grasslands to develop.

"I, Jieli, admit defeat, but I will not admit defeat. In the land that is always wild and unruly, there are men who are always wild and unruly... We Turkic people will never surrender. If you are willing to continue to follow me, when we have the ability to compete with Li Tang During the war, I will bring you back to fight. My words are here, and it is up to you whether you listen or not. If you want to stay, don’t ask me for help when Qin Feng harasses you in the future. I have the capital to fight. I have no obligation to help those who are disobedient. Of course, you can also go to Tuli, but you have to think clearly whether he can lead you to glory and whether he can accommodate you. There is room for Tuli's strength Inflated and self-righteous, he put those people who defected to him in key positions before he won the final victory, but he didn't think that those people defected to him because of their interests. He wanted others to die. Maybe, the existing Tuli is the same as Wumeng. He didn’t unite the hearts of the people, and fought in a hurry without allocating the pasture. Others are no good, so why should he work for him? So he is not far from defeat. , I have a way to fight and settle down... I will give you one hour to make a choice. You can either work together with me, or stay and let Qin Feng be wiped out, or go to Tuli, where people's hearts are not attached."

Ashina Congzhe, Ashina Congli, Ashina Mo Ruoya and other royal families loyal to Jieli stood up without hesitation, and said: "I have decided to follow the instructions of King Khan and stay away from the Tang Dynasty. Wait for your time."

The rest of the people thought about Jieli Khan's words, only to realize that they had no way out, and expressed their opinions one after another.

"Okay, you won't regret today's stand." Jie Li laughed loudly, he knew that after this time, everyone's cohesion will be stronger than before before the split.

……

Shuofang!

"Because of the weather, we will be cut off from it; if we don't stop, we will be subject to chaos." Jieli Khan left the rich land of Shuobei Prairie, and Li Jing had already learned about it through the intelligence network set up on the grassland.He has been paying attention to the movements of the Turks, so he immediately learned that Jieli Khan had summoned all the tribes to withdraw from the Mobei grassland and march into the depths of the grassland. [
When Li Jing heard the news, not only was he not very happy, but he was surprised, and there was a trace of fear in his eyes.

"Worthy of being a hero of the generation, Jieli is really extraordinary. He left the Shuobei Grassland. He avoided the danger of several battles, and also prevented Qin Feng from continuing to bleed to death. It's amazing. But, isn't it too late?"

Xue Wanche, who was also in Shuofang, was ecstatic when he heard the news.

The Turks withdrew from the Shuobei Grassland, which meant that not only did they secure Shuofang, but the entire Shuofang was also complete.

But Li Jing shook his head and said, "Don't be too happy, Jieli has made the most sensible decision. It's hard for me to imagine that with Jieli's character, he can endure this humiliation. It's like Goujian, who endured the humiliation through hard work. People are not cowards, they are great people. And Jieli is obviously not a coward."

"Master Shangshu, should we send troops into the prairie?" Xue Wanche asked.

"Suobei Grassland can't escape, it will be ours sooner or later, it is not suitable to march at this time, in case the Turks will kill their carbine. If we press too hard, if Jieli turns around and fights to the end with us, Tuli and Yinan will be in vain. It’s because our Tang Dynasty’s interests are not in line with each other, so let’s clean up the mess when they beat you to death.”

Xue Wanche suddenly realized, and after a while, he smiled again: "This time, our little Qin general has no way to make meritorious service."

Li Jing smiled knowingly and said: "The Huben Army has lost nearly half of its combat power. The most urgent thing right now is to restore its combat power so as not to miss the upcoming decisive battle. His Majesty will not allow him to continue doing this. General Xiaoqin is young. He is light, but witty like a fox, he will definitely not lose the big because of small things, just wait and see."

"Master Shang Shu is very optimistic about General Qin?"

A smile flashed in Li Jing's eyes, and he said: "Qin Feng is stronger than I imagined. Seeing that he easily defeated an army of [-] last time, I even suspect that he deliberately leaked military information to the Turkic people. After seeing him The layout is all commanded, and it really has the style of a general. For a young man who has never fought a direct battle, it is very remarkable. If it were you, you were in his situation at that time, what should you do?"

Xue Wanche thought for a while, and said: "If there is no His Royal Highness, I will choose to fight, but if there are only 1 people, the only way is to retreat."

Li Jing nodded and said: "A qualified commander must have the following three conditions: deep emotion, superior intelligence, and super emotional self-control. For a talented commander, deep emotion is the driving force, and the sense of honor and responsibility are all important factors. It is the concrete manifestation of this emotion, and it is hard to imagine that a commander without emotional drive can lead thousands of troops through the corridor of hell, ushering in the dawn of success and hope. Then there is excellent intelligence, which is a necessary skill. The battlefield is changing rapidly, without excellent intelligence, you will inevitably get lost in the enemy's smoke. Finally, and most importantly, super strong emotional self-control, or willpower, this is the personality attribute of a talented commander. At the most emotional moment Or in the most desperate and helpless moment, he still maintains calm judgment and firm belief in his heart, overcomes obstacles, and sees the sun. Every move he makes is deeply rooted in the art of war. With more training, he must be a talent that can be cultivated. Maybe he will succeed His Majesty, After Maogong and I, there is another genius who can command the three armies." Speaking of this, Li Jing said with a smile: "Young people need opportunities, so I will write a letter to His Majesty. Hehe, switch positions with Qin Feng and watch from behind. Young man, it may be a very pleasant thing,"

……

Tuli is handsome.

Jieli decided to back down and give up Shuobei Grassland.This move caused an uproar in the grassland, and Tuli even took this opportunity to spread the offensive of public opinion.

The ownership of the Mobei Grassland, this is the link that will be messed up if it is not cut.

In fact, it is just a sentence, the strong are respected, and whoever is strong belongs to him.According to the earliest records, the Shuobei Grassland should belong to the Quanrong Kingdom. Later, the Xiongnu rose and became owned by the Huns. The Qin, Han, and Sui Dynasties took the Shuobei Grassland as their own, but when they were in despair, the grassland peoples took over the past .Just like the disputed territory of later generations.Both the Central Plains people and grassland people regard this place as their own.

Jieli's abandonment of the Shuobei grassland is tantamount to handing over the Shuobei grassland to Datang, which is undoubtedly an act of treason.Even in ancient times, this kind of behavior was extremely contemptuous.

Jieli's strength was greatly reduced due to the demise of Ashina Zhanhan, the disastrous defeat of Ashinasheer and Zhishili, and now he has given the Turkic territory to his old enemy Tang Dynasty, and he has been questioned by all kinds of people. , in stark contrast with the Turkic tribes who are in full swing.All of a sudden, there were many people who rebelled against Xieli and defected to Tuli, which directly pushed Tuli to the peak of the grassland.So far, the strength of Tuli has truly surpassed Jieli, and he has become the uncrowned king of Turkic.

Because of the expansion of power, Tuli no longer left any leeway, and claimed to be the king of Turkic Khan, and stood up against Jieli, officially dividing Turkic into two.

When Tuli was complacent, he received a slap in the face: the Tang Dynasty raised the ratio of ironware for cattle and horses on the grounds of insufficient ironware, which was ten times the original ratio.As for fine weapons.It even increased the ratio by fifteen times.This is the last time Tuli humiliated the envoy of the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty took a retaliatory measure. Anyway, Tuli now needs others, and Qin Feng's two captures also relieved the Tang Dynasty. in a hurry.But now that Xieli and Tuli are in the same situation, the Tang Dynasty is not worried that they can still unite as a monolith.Tuli either accepted the blackmail from the Tang Dynasty, or fought with Jieli in this way.

"Why don't they come to grab it?"

Tuli shot up angrily, his eyes burning with anger: he is now the king of the Turkic Khan, and the soldiers and horses he can mobilize in his hands have surpassed that of Jieli, and the grassland he controls is not inferior to the former.Now that Jieli is facing crises in all aspects, it is time for him to take advantage of the victory and pursue to establish the supremacy of the Turkic Khan king in one fell swoop.Requires a lot of sharp iron weapons.But Tang Chao's move at this critical moment really made him panic.

"Damn it! Damn cunning Han Chinese, when I eliminate old man Jieli and secure my position as King Khan, I will definitely make you look good!" Tuli put down his harsh words, but his face was still frowning.There is no way, the smelting technology of the Tang Dynasty is too superb, and their Turks are far behind.The sharp weapons made in the Tang Dynasty are not only powerful, but also durable.It's not easy to pop your mouth, and it's really easy to use.However, once the swords of the Tang Dynasty slammed, they did not have the smelting technology to re-forge and repair them. They could only use rough grinding methods, or use Turkic smelting technology to repair them, or even go back to the furnace for remaking to restore the sharpness of the weapon.

This also destroyed the texture of the weapon itself, causing the sharp weapon to become a rotten object.

Battles clashed.He should have used all his strengths to the extreme in order to win with the greatest certainty.

In order to win again in the next crucial battle, Tuli plans to spend the next time.A large amount of sharp weapons of the Tang Dynasty were purchased as capital for victory.But now, I can only hehe.

For a while, Tuli also felt regretful.There should be no premature showdown with the Tang Dynasty.

Yi Nan was silent, but his heart was full of joy. Since Tuli's strength exploded, he has been marginalized, saying that he is an ally, but Tuli treats him as a trustee, which makes him very unhappy. But the difference in strength was there, and he could only bear it. Now that Tang Chao pinched Tuli's lifeblood, Yi Nan couldn't help gloating.Before, he advised Tuli not to go too far, but Tuli didn't listen, now it's all right, he deserves it.
