In ancient times, wars were emphasized, which was called "the master is famous". No matter where the name comes from, it would definitely not work without it.

During the Three Kingdoms, in order to make Liu Bei's army famous, Pang Tong died in Luofengpo in order to give Liu Bei an excuse to revenge with kindness. Now the Tang Dynasty is the same. In fact, fighting the Eastern Turks was to betrayal and righteous, but it didn't matter. No one would care. Because the Tang Dynasty was famous, it suffered the shame from Jie Li back then. Everyone could understand that Li Shimin fought for revenge. This was a kind of righteousness.

This time, Li Shimin sent two large armies to attack Dingxiang, but in fact, it was to prevent the Western Turks, but in name, it was because of Li Mu's disappearance. Hou Junji and Li Ji attacked Gaochang on the grounds of asking for Li Mu. In other words, if Gaochang handed over Li Mu, the Tang army would have no reason to stay here again, because King Gaochang had just visited Chang'an not long ago.

From the perspective of "ritual", Gaochang is polite, but the Tang Dynasty is rude, so this thing cannot be done. It doesn't matter if it has to be done, but it will lose its virtue and make other countries in the Western Regions no longer trust the Tang Dynasty.

It doesn’t matter whether you trust or not. After all, in any era, the strong are respected. But in this era, there are limitations. Li Shimin often lamented that this is what it means to prevent Chang'an. Governing a country with a territory of tens of thousands of miles must not be done by himself. So what do local officials and vassal states see? Why are they loyal to you? The main idea is still the same, or the so-called "virtue".

If you bully the weak and make everyone in a small country feel threatened, and make them feel that even if you serve you, I will not be rewarded in the end, then who will be willing to sincerely submit?

Therefore, the Tang Dynasty's attitude towards Gaochang largely determined how the countries in the Western Regions would treat the Tang Dynasty. At this time, if King Gaochang died in the Tang Dynasty's military camp inexplicably, it would confirm that the saying would be impossible to clear the situation even if he jumped into the Yellow River.

"What should I do! What should I do!" Hou Junji was so anxious that he was the general of Li Ji, but he was the Minister of War. When they were together, they naturally regarded him as the priest and respected him, so they naturally had to take responsibility. Even if this matter was done by Li Ji, he had all the responsibility, and this matter had nothing to do with Li Ji. The person who brought the poison tea was his record officer and joined the army!

"Who is the one who hurt me!" Hou Junji looked at Ju Wentai who was already stiff, and couldn't even cry. However, Li Ji had calmed down and said, "Come on, send orders, guard the camp, no one is allowed to enter and exit, and those who violate the orders will be killed!"

Someone went out to pass an order, and Li Ji came to Hou Junji and said, "General, the matter has come to this point, so you should be calm. Now it seems that someone must be trying to make the matter big. I wonder if the general can tell him who is the plan today?"

"Isn't it just that Zhang Yi? He ran away now, where can I go to check it!"

"This..." Li Ji was also at a loss. A figure subconsciously appeared in his mind. Li Mu, if Li Mu was there, he would definitely have a way.

"Report" another urgent report. Li Ji looked at the door and a whistle sergeant ran in, showing a happy expression on his face, saying, "Report to General, there is news from Zhulu Hou!"

"What!" Li Ji grabbed the detective's shoulder excitedly and asked, "Really?"

"Yes, I received a message from Fei Ge, confirming that the traces of Zhulu Hou had been found. They were just a hundred miles away and should be able to come back in the evening."

Hou Junji was also very happy, "How is his safety?"

"The specific news is not known yet. I only know that the Marquis and his group encountered Tuyuhun's rattle intercepted them. The two sides fought for a while. Fortunately, General Li Chongyi arrived in time to resolve the crisis. Then the two sides merged into one place and were rushing back."

When Li Ji heard the point, he frowned and said, "Tuyuhun's ranger? Why does Tuyuhun's ranger appear?"

The whistleblower replied, "Report to the general, my subordinates don't know."

Li Ji thought for a while and said, "Send an order, send one battalion, two battalions of troops, hurry up and pick up Zhulu Hou. No matter who meets along the way, kill!"

The detective did not respond immediately, but looked at Hou Junji. Hou Junji glared and said, "Didn't you hear General Li Ji's words? See what I'm doing!"

He now wishes that Li Ji will take more responsibility. It is best if Li Ji decides to do this morning. When he first came, his heart was already invincible to compete with Li Ji.

The whistle detective took the order and sent the order. After a while, drums sounded and the two battalions of soldiers and horses left the camp gate like thunder.

...

The conversation was divided into two parts, and Li Mu's situation was not very good.

He rushed to Yanqi and went smoothly. After seeing Nishu and expressed his intention, Nishu had no obstacles and agreed to leave Yanqi with him and discuss the major plan together. In fact, Nishu had no choice. After all, Yanqi was not a place to live for a long time, and he had tribe members in the Western Turks, and his country's hatred and family hatred were gathered together. As long as he was given a chance, he would have no reason not to take revenge.

The two of them did not delay at all, and then left after replenishing food and water. But after this, the problem arose. Although Nishu is a hero of a generation and is not very old, he was hit by an arrow when he broke with Siyehu. Because he was not well treated, he was in a disease and could not stand the bumps on his horse. After walking for more than fifty miles, he coughed violently and almost fell off his horse.

Li Mu had no choice but to slow down and walk with him on the reins. After such delays, he met Tuyuhun's cavalry.

In recent years, when talking about external enemies, the first thing to say is the Turks, followed by the Tubos and the Goguryeo people, seems to rarely mention the Tuyuhun people. But in fact, when it comes to combat power, the Tuyuhun people are not small at all, especially the cavalry of Tuyuhun. It can be said that they are comparable to the elite of the Turkish cavalry, but the number of people is too small, which makes people mistakenly think that they are not weak.

There were about twenty racers in this group of raids, and they were in a hurry and like a letter. When they met Li Mu and Nishu, they changed their paths and rushed straight to the two. Li Mu naturally could not stand by, but he had no weapons on his body, so how could he fight with bare hands? It was easy for him to run away, but Nishu threw it here. At this time, he realized that martial arts could not determine the reason for the war. These cavalrymen fought alone, and he was naturally not a problem to protect their bodies with magical skills. Three or five could handle it, but these twenty people were able to fight and shoot arrows together, and he was helpless.

Just when he was about to be unable to resist and was about to shout 'My life is over', he suddenly heard a loud shout, "Who dares to hurt my elder brother!"
