Chapter 752 I am sincere!

In the Battle of the Walled City, the Tang army was successful. After a short rest, Li Chengqian led his army to advance towards Yu Dujun Mountain. Seeing this murderous army, the herdsmen all fled by any means, especially the herdsmen in the territory of Xue Yantuo's tribe.

Ri San was shocked because they didn't know when the army representing the God of Death would swing the butcher knife at their heads.

Yi Nan's cheek is swollen very high now. Even if he doesn't touch it, it still hurts. The Han people are right, toothache is not a disease, the pain is really terrible. This feeling is really unacceptable. Yi Nan is not angry.

Because of his generosity, he could regenerate his son after he died, but if his army of 100,000 were wiped out in one fell swoop, it would be no different from killing him.

Such a huge loss was beyond the bottom line he could bear. If he didn't have an army on the grassland, he would never survive for long, so he didn't care about the shamelessness and quickly sent his nephew Dumozhi to the Tang Army camp.

He went to seek peace and told him that no matter how much it cost, as long as the Tang army could retreat, it would be fine.

Yelangpo, a hundred miles east of Yudujun Mountain, was originally the outpost of Yazhang. Its function was to defend it, so it was always defended by heavy troops. But after only one day of defense, the Tang army broke through and the garrison was stationed here.

All 20,000 defenders were wiped out at an extremely fast speed, without even giving time for reinforcements. This was one of the reasons why Yi Nan was so eager to seek peace with the Tang army.

After the Tang army broke through here, they not only cleared the surrounding trees and opened up their horizons, but also formed a huge alliance in the east. This made Du Mozhi's head hurt. This posture made it clear that he wanted to settle the matter in a battle, so his uncle withdrew his troops.

This sounds easy to say, but what can Datang do? At least in Tumozhi's heart, he somewhat despises Yi Nan's way of begging for mercy after being beaten.

"Foreign Minister Dumozhi is here to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Please allow the foreign minister to convey the greetings of Zhenzhu Khan to you!" The Han etiquette performed by several Tumozhi people was a bit nondescript, but no one cared about them. After all, in the

In the eyes of Tang people, there is no difference between them and wild beasts.

"Okay, don't say any polite words. Just tell me why you are here and what Yi Nan asked you to do!"? Greetings? Huh? Li Chengqian believed this. I guess Yi Nan has greeted the Li family three times in the morning, afternoon and evening.

Eighteen generations of ancestors? Killed so many people from their Xue Yantuo tribe? It would be strange if they didn’t get scolded.

"Yes, yes, the foreign minister came here to plead guilty on the orders of the Zhenzhu Khan? The Khan was bewitched by the traitor and misunderstood the Celestial Dynasty, so that he offended the Celestial Empire. My Khan has already killed the traitor? And sent him to his head.

Your Highness, please calm down your anger? Have mercy on our troops, call for a truce, and at the same time be willing to pay tribute of 100,000 cattle and horses each to ask for understanding. Regarding the reform of the Han system? The foreign minister thinks that we should make the best of the situation? .... Of course, by the way.

In order to welcome back our prince, His Majesty the Crown Prince, please be kind and respectful. The Great Khan will strictly discipline him when he returns."

Did Du Mozhi's words make Li Chengqian feel funny? Not only did it make him laugh, but it also made the Tang army generals in the commander's tent burst into laughter? It's enough to give some cattle and sheep if you can't defeat them, but treat the Tang Dynasty as a beggar. How can you adapt to local conditions?

Implementing Chineseization? Nonsense, who is the weak party? Aren’t you confused about your own status?

Raising his hand to interrupt the laughter of the generals, he squinted his eyes and said calmly: "In the fourth year of Zhenguan? Xue Yantuo's tribe made a surprise attack on Qikou? They surveyed the entire Yinshan Mountains, ignored the covenant between the Tang Dynasty and you, and killed 3,500 of our soldiers. Zhenguan In the sixth year of Zhenguan, we plundered the forage of our Tang army in the Qinnan grassland. In the seventh year of Zhenguan, we intercepted and killed the Tang Dynasty caravan. In the eighth year of Zhenguan, we plowed grass and valleys in the counties under Lingzhou. Now with such a few words, I will give you thirty Wan Dajun is turning around, does this mean that he is eating the ashes of lamp grass?"

Hearing that Tumozhi could put forward conditions if the Tang Dynasty was not satisfied, Li Chengqian sharpened the finger on his hand again and asked Li Ji, who was standing at the top of the list: "Young Master, they can make any conditions. You have been in the north for many years, Tell us what we should order to get our money back!"

Pay back your money? Are you kidding me? Can Xue Yantuo’s tribe afford to pay for the Tang Dynasty’s use of so many troops? After briefly understanding the prince’s intention, Li Ji cupped his hands and said, “Your Highness, all the money, silk and materials are valuable. It's easy to break it into cattle and sheep, but it won't happen after this person dies.

The last general served in the Bingzhou Metropolitan Governor's Office for many years. According to official statistics there, nearly 10,000 people died in the Xueyantuo tribe over the years. So many compatriots died on the grassland, and if they were just gold, silver, cattle and sheep, then His Highness would not There is no way I can answer this to hundreds of thousands of brothers!"

After Li Ji finished speaking, he immediately received the support of the generals in the tent. They all said that life is priceless and dignity is priceless. There was no need for the prince to pay attention to Yi Nan. He just asked the old boy to take the time to wash his neck and wait for beheading.

Du Mozhi was not surprised at all by the Tang army general's righteous indignation. His great Zhenzhu Khan was a master who was unscrupulous and did whatever was beneficial. It was his habit to look left and right. As a famous leader on the grassland, As one of the wolves, of course he doesn't care about face, as long as he can survive.

But Duo Mozhi couldn't do it. When he came, his uncle had already said that if he couldn't complete the task, he and his tribe would die as the vanguard to resist the Tang army's attack. Therefore, he must succeed no matter for himself or the tribe.

"His Royal Highness, the Great Khan is very sincere. If you are not satisfied with anything, you can say, let's discuss it again. If this war continues, it will not only waste the country's money, but also add countless innocent souls! Even though the foreign minister is a human being, Although I am in the North, I am very impressed by His Highness’s kindness to the people. I ask Your Highness to have mercy on the people on both sides and carefully consider the conditions for ending the war and repairing the war, so as to save the lives of the common people.”

Tuo Mozhi spoke sincerely and kowtowed in a very sincere manner, but it was obvious that he himself hoped to stop the war, live in harmony, and exchange needs. But he was not a Yi man, nor was he a great khan of the Xue Yantuo tribe. He couldn't keep this promise, and even if he did, it wouldn't count.

Therefore, Li Chengqian only sympathized with him. As an envoy, he was undoubtedly competent. However, the conflict between the Tang Dynasty and Xue Yantuo's tribe had been long-standing and irreconcilable. So what could he do if he just talked about it!
