Martial arts.

Along the way, Jieli Khan did not encounter a decent resistance force.

He always felt like something was wrong.

It is said that for a country as powerful as the Tang Dynasty, even if the support is not enough and it cannot send excess troops to participate in the war, it cannot be easily pushed every time, right?

He looked at Zhi Huansi Li and said,"Have you noticed that these Tang troops have no intention of fighting these days?""

"Before the fight even started, they surrendered directly. Once or twice was okay, but this time more often, it felt like they were doing it on purpose!"

Zhi lost his mind and lowered his head to think hard, but he was still confused.

The reason why Liang Shidu and Astew Mochu had no suspicion was that the enemy they encountered was disguised well enough, and the second was that he was too conceited. He thought that no one could deal with him in the territory of Xiazhou.

But the wily Jieli Khan and Zhi lost their thinking ability, and encountered similar scenes several times more, they would start to think about the authenticity of the problem.

Obviously, There are some problems with the current situation.

In the distanceA few miles away from the Wugong City, Zhi lost his thoughts and said to Jieli Khan:"Great Khan, the Wugong City is ahead!"

"I know their guard. He is a kid from an aristocratic family who often does business with Hu merchants. He is afraid of death and has a good background."

"How about we skip the detour this time and go directly to ask him?"

Jieli Khan is also full of doubts now. Even if he loses his mind and power, he has plans to attack Wugong City.

"Then go and take a look!"

"Notify everyone, speed up the march!"

"yes!"

Soon after, a group of people arrived at the foot of Wugong City.

Just like the previous city, this place was also heavily guarded, but there was no intention of leaving the city to fight.

In order not to scare the people inside, the Turkic army stopped far away.

Zhi lost his thoughts. Li rode a horse and walked towards Wugong City.

The Tang soldiers looked puzzled. Is this man coming here to persuade you to surrender? Do you still need to persuade me? We can just raise the white flag, but can you please take a detour?!

The guards didn't dare to take action. It would be terrible if they offended the Turkic army behind them. They quickly sent a person to shout to Zhi Shisi Li.

"This Turkic envoy, please don't come any closer. We won't open the city gate. Please take a detour!"

Zhi Shi Si Li stopped his horse and shouted to the top,"My name is Zhi Hu Si Li, and I am a friend of Zheng Dongshan, the guard of Wugong City. Please give him a message. My old friend wants to invite him to come out and see you. one sight!"

When the guards heard this, they realized that this is what feelings are like.

"good! Please wait!"

The guards went back to report, and Zhi Huan Si Li was waiting at the city gate.

Soon, the suspension bridge was lowered and the gate was opened.

A chubby middle-aged man walked out from inside, followed by There were more than ten guards.

As soon as Zheng Dongshan saw Zhi lost his mind, he ran over happily

"Brother Zhishu, why are you here! Oh man, I miss you so much!"

Zheng Dongshan took Zhihusi Li's hand very enthusiastically, as if he had seen an old friend for decades.

Zhihusili also smiled and said:"Our Khan is going to see your little emperor. So you brought me here!"

"How's it going? How is business lately?"

Zheng Dongshan waved his hand,"Hi! Forget it, those yellow sheep sent by the barbarians were all raised by you Turks in captivity and were not caught in the mountains at all!"

"The taste is so different from that of wild yellow sheep that several adults started asking me to refund their money. What a shame!"

"It's better to do business with you. Every time I transport goods to Beijing, I can make a lot of money, and I don't have to worry about losing money at all!"

As he spoke, Zheng Dongshan rolled his eyes and said,"Brother Zhishu, did you bring any fresh yellow sheep when you came this time? Borrow some from me, price is not an issue!"

Zhi lost his mind and shook his head,"To be honest, this time our Khan is going to your little emperor to ask for this year's tribute. The army did bring 200,000, but the yellow sheep did not!

Zheng Dongshan was shocked,"Two hundred thousand!" Didn’t the barbarians say that you only have 100,000 people on this journey? Why did it become two hundred thousand again!"

Zhi lost his thoughts and frowned. Did the barbarians reveal their whereabouts in advance?

No, you have to tell the Khan about this.

"How can one take away enough tribute with just 100,000 people? Of course, the more people, the better!"

"But brother Zheng, don’t worry, you are a friend who is obsessed with ego and has lost his mind, we will not do anything to you!"

Zheng Dongshan was very excited when he heard this, and held Zhi lost Si Li's hand tightly,"Thank you so much, brother Zhi lost!"

"If it weren't for the wrong time, I would definitely invite you into the city to treat me well!"

He looked at the Turkic army behind Zhi Shisi Li and was a little scared.

Zhi Shisi Li smiled and said nothing.

The two chatted for a few more words, and then Zhi Shisi Li asked him

"Brother Zheng, actually I came here because I have something to ask you."

"As we went south, almost all the Tang troops we encountered showed little resistance. It seemed that they didn't care much about us Turks going south. Even here, you just closed the city gates and gave way. This is not in line with the style of your Tang troops!"

"Is something wrong?"

Zhi Huan Si Li stared at Zheng Dongshan, trying to get the answer from his eyes.

Zheng Dongshan was silent for a moment, and whispered to Zhi Huan Si Li:

"In fact, even if I don't tell you about this matter, you will get the news soon."

"Datang, things are about to change!"

Zhi Huan Si Li's eyes lit up, this is good news!

He pretended to be confused and asked:"Didn't your current little emperor just launch a military coup and seize the throne? He has almost killed the heir to the throne, what else can change?"

Zheng Dongshan sighed,"You don't know, Brother Zhisi, the first thing the new king did after he came to the throne was to imprison the children of the fifth surname and Qiwang."

"There are a total of two hundred people, all of whom are leaders of the younger generation from major aristocratic families! Now he had completely angered Wu Xing Qi Wang!"

"You know, the five surnames and Qiwang of the Tang Dynasty are similar to the eight major tribes of your Turks. They are both existences that can stir up the situation of a country."

"Now the head of the Boling Cui family is still under house arrest in Chang'an by the young emperor. The entire Cui family is trying to find him desperately. I'm afraid he won't be able to remain emperor for a few days!"

Zhi lost his thoughts and was so happy that he could hardly hold back his lips. He pinched his thighs tightly and forced himself to calm down.

He was still a little confused,"But, this has nothing to do with you not resisting the Turkic army, right?"

Zheng Dongshan exclaimed, and slapped Zhi Huan Si Li on the shoulder.

"We are all our own people, why should you try to trick me!"

"I am also a member of the Zheng family in Xingyang, Qiwangli, the fifth surname. We, the generals, already know about the affairs between these big families in the Tang Dynasty and Jieli Khan!"

"During this coup of the Tang Dynasty, the higher-ups will definitely send envoys to contact you Khan to jointly plan for the success of the Tang Dynasty. But I didn’t expect you to come so soon. You must have not received the news yet?"

"You said we have to work together, so why bother? Saving your life is the most important thing!"

Zhi lost his mind and lowered his eyebrows to think. He was trying to discern the authenticity of Zheng Dongshan's words.

The cooperation between Qiwang and Jieli Khan had a great impact. Few people in the major families knew about it. Zheng Dongshan knew about it. The possibility should be very small.

But along the way, not only Zheng Dongshan, but also the former Jingzhou guard Li Huai did not resist.

Could it be that they had really passed each other's anger?

While he was still thinking At that time, he heard the sound of a fast horse whipping.

He quickly looked up and found that on the mountain road in the distance, a Tang army was heading towards the Turkic army. He was carrying a red flag on his back. It seemed that he was here to send a message.

Zheng Dongshan raised his finger and said,"Cao Cao is here. Cao Cao is here!""

Zhi lost his mind and felt a little anxious. He quickly said goodbye to Zheng Dongshan and rode back.......... ps: Thanks to boss 15123.. for your monthly ticket support!
