"We made peace with each other and gave money and silk as a legacy! The Turks repeatedly invaded the borders of the Tang Dynasty, and they were extremely ambitious and incompatible with the Han people. Li Shimin, how can you beg for surrender from the Turks!"

In the Detachment of Women's Army camp, Li Shimin had just informed Li Xiuning of his decision, and was immediately scolded by Li Xiuning.

Li Shimin said with a gloomy face:"Only by surrendering to the Turks can we save Chang'an! There is no other way!"

Li Xiuning remained silent. She also knew that in this situation, there was no choice.

Either the Turks would conquer Chang'an or beg for surrender. There are only two ways to go.

But, I am so unwilling!

If Changqing were here, he would definitely Lead the troops to charge, instead of just defending the city and waiting to be killed like Li Shimin!

……

The next day, Li Shimin talked with Jieli Khan across the moat on the city wall.

"Jie Li! Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty married Princess Yicheng to your father, Qimin Khan, and established friendly relations between the two ethnic groups.

The battle between your and my armies resulted in numerous casualties and deepened the hatred between the two races.

Today, I want to turn the war into friendship and make peace with you, the Turks, in the name of the Tang Dynasty!"

Jieli Khan was overjoyed when he heard this.

The frontline spies came to report that Li Changqing led 15,000 dragon cavalry guards to help Chang'an, and they would arrive in almost two days.

Deep in the desert, there were another 100,000 Mo Dao guards wreaking havoc..

He originally wanted to attack Chang'an for two more days. If he could not take Chang'an, he would flee back to the desert.

But Li Shimin actually took the lead in proposing the reconciliation between the two races!

Although he was happy in his heart, Jieli Khan still had a look of disdain on his face and sneered. road:

"In two days, my army of 250,000 troops will be able to break through Chang'an! At that time, our army will be able to gallop in the hinterland of the Central Plains. Wouldn’t it be nice to burn, kill, and loot all the way? Why do you need to make peace with the Tang Dynasty? Li

Shimin's face darkened and he said:"Our Tang Dynasty is vast and vast. Since Yao and Shun, we have been the lord of the Central Plains." If you ride a horse in Chang'an, no matter which generation the Han dynasty is passed on to, the Turks will fight you until death!

This king has a plan for the world and for you and the people of our two tribes. I come with good intentions. I hope that Khan will not let the fish die!

Jieli Khan said:"The Han people are cunning, and I will not believe your so-called goodwill.""

He laughed twice, raised his riding whip, pointed at the handsome horse Sa Lu Zi where Li Shimin sat, and said very arrogantly:

"You kill your handsome horse and swear an oath to prove that you sincerely want to make peace with me, the Turks. In this way, I can consider whether to negotiate with you"

"you!"

Li Shimin was furious.

He galloped on the battlefield and made countless military exploits.

As the founding prince of the Tang Dynasty, he had a high status.

He even succeeded in forcing the palace and put Li Yuan under house arrest. He became the next emperor of the Tang Empire.

But now, he is so insulted by the leader of a foreign race..

At this time, he wished he could immediately lead the Xuanjia Army out of the city to rush and kill, to vent his anger.

"Your Highness! Duan Zhixuan stepped forward and said with a face full of grief and anger:"The Turks are bullying others too much!" Why don't we abandon Chang'an, gather people from all over the country, and kill in the desert!"

The rest of the generals also had angry expressions on their faces, and the anger in their eyes was about to burst out!

Li Shimin suppressed the anger in his heart, turned over and dismounted, pulled out the long sword at his waist, and chopped off the head of his mount Sa Lu Zi with one sword stroke.

Sa Lu Zi Zi, who had accompanied him in the north and south, was his favorite horse.

Now, in order to win a chance to negotiate with the Turks, he had to kill his beloved horse with his own hands! When

Jieli Khan saw the horse's head fall to the ground, he was heartbroken. It was extremely enjoyable.

That day at the gate of Youzhou City, Li Changqing took more than 130 Turkic princes and nobles as hostages to force him to retreat.

At that time, he sat down on his white horse and swore that one day he would avenge Li Changqing.

Although he failed to avenge Li Changqing today. Revenge, but forcing the majestic King Qin of the Tang Dynasty to such a situation, also made him feel good.

He laughed twice and said:"This Khan has already felt King Qin's desire to reconcile with the Turks.

Now, show your sincerity from the Tang Dynasty. If sincerity is sufficient, I will immediately withdraw my troops."

Li Shimin said:"In order to reconcile with the Turks, I, the Tang Dynasty, are willing to marry a princess to the Khan and give him ten carts of gold and silk."

"Marriage? Jieli Khan laughed proudly and said,"This Khan's wife is Princess Yicheng of the Sui Dynasty." I never thought that I would be able to marry a Tang princess.

The two princesses serve the Khan together, wonderful, wonderful! This Khan can also be regarded as a person who is better than an expert."

Jieli Khan's father, Qimin Khan, was the only one who married two princesses in a row.

And when he came to him, he also married two princesses in a row.

Moreover, of these two princesses, one was a Sui Dynasty princess and the other was a Sui Dynasty princess. Princess of the Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, he boasted that he was better than others.

"Ben Khan agreed to the marriage. But ten carts of gold and silk are too few."Jieli Khan said:"I agree to the following conditions of this Khan, and the 250,000 troops will return immediately!

Li Shimin's face turned livid and he said," Khan, please tell me.""

"First, a hundred carts of gold and silk!"

"Second, ten thousand sets of Mingguang armor worn by the Black Armor Army!"

"Third, one hundred skilled craftsmen!"

As soon as Jieli Khan finished speaking, Li Shimin immediately said decisively:"A hundred carts of gold and silk, and ten thousand sets of Mingguang armor are all negotiable, but it is impossible for a skilled craftsman!"
