Chapter 717 Return to Gaochang
Li Xiang was also preparing to return to Gaochang. He saw many Western Turkic armies along the way. When the armies of both sides passed each other, everyone had hatred in their eyes and they were on guard against each other.
Li Xiang knew that these people were all subordinates of General Kang Ying. If Li Xiang hadn't stirred up the Western Regions, perhaps these people would not have been separated from General Kang Ying.
Li Xiang has done similar things not once or twice. It was the same between Songtsen Gampo and Lu Dongtsen when they were in Tubo. Now they are in the Western Regions again. If you can stick together, then Who will guarantee the interests of our Datang? Under Li Xiang's operation, you can only interfere with each other internally to give us a chance.
"This army seems to be very elite, at least in this wilderness. If we didn't have those special weapons, I guess our cavalry would not be their opponent. The Turkic army is indeed well-deserved. The old general also fought very well. difficult."
When Yuchi Baolin saw these people, he was filled with admiration in his heart. You must know that the war between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks was very simple in the history books and was dealt with in one stroke, but they were the only ones who knew the real situation. People in the army knew how tragic the war was just by looking at how many people died in the inland areas of Datang.
"There is a certain amount of land under the sky, and no one's land falls from the sky. If we want to expand the borders of the Tang Dynasty, we will inevitably be enemies of these people, but this time someone is helping."
Looking at the army in front of him, Li Xiang always had a smile on his face. If it weren't for the Western Turk Khan, we might meet them on the battlefield in the future, but because of the Western Turk Khan, we and The chance of this army meeting on the battlefield has been greatly reduced. After these people return to the royal city of the Western Turks, it is estimated that the Khan of the Western Turks will take action against them.
It is an extremely happy thing for anyone to use the enemy's hands to eliminate the enemy's most elite army. Seeing the smile on Li Xiang's face, Yuchi Baolin also grinned next to him, even if the army in front of him No matter how elite the army is, it has nothing to do with us. It will have nothing to do with us until you are defeated.
"Your Highness, there is a tent in front of you on the left. It is said to belong to General Kang Ying. They sent someone to deliver a letter, asking Your Highness to come over and talk about it."
When Li Xiang went to the Western Regions, General Kang Ying sent someone to give him a message and pointed out the direction of the investigation to Li Xiang. This could be regarded as a favor to Li Xiang, although Li Xiang already had some problems within the Western Turks. His own people, but General Kang Ying's authority within the Western Turks is not low.
If you are looking for a spokesperson, General Kang Ying should be a very suitable candidate, but Li Xiang has tried it several times, and General Kang Ying has not responded. Will he give him any response this time?
"You just keep going forward and leave my guards behind."
Li Xiang did not want to alarm too many people, especially since the Western Turks were currently experiencing internal instability. If he really took action, it would be extremely beneficial to the Tang Dynasty, but this was not in line with Li Xiang's Western Region policy. , that would alert other countries, and it would still be difficult for people from the Tang Dynasty to move forward in the Western Regions in the future.
Although the soldiers under his command felt inappropriate, they thought that our Highness was not a vegetarian. If the other party really had other ideas, we might take advantage in the end, so they continued to maintain their marching speed. Li Xiang took thirty A guard rushed to the tent.
When Li Xiang opened the tent and went in, General Kang Ying had already drunk a lot of wine. There was no one around except one guard. Everyone was staying outside, and the food on the table was also prepared. Okay, it seems that General Kang Ying has already predicted that Li Xiang will come.
"I really didn't expect that the general would be so refined that he would have a drink in this place. It's just that the conditions outside are too bad. There are deserts all around. Fortunately, there is no wind today. If there had been wind today, then the general The wine will be mixed with sand."
Li Xiang smiled and found a place to sit down. Except for one of his guards, everyone else was waiting outside. The people below were all very well-behaved. If you stay here, they will How to talk?
"Wine mixed with sand is better than poisoned wine. This time you have tricked me into the ditch. All my troops have been transferred back. Except for the guards around me, the rest I don’t know the people at all. Those people are all the sons of princes. Do you think they can obey my orders? I’m afraid you will be the one to decide the entire border area from now on.”
The general would not blame the Turkic Khan. If he had to blame it, he could only blame Li Xiang. Without Li Xiang's calculation, how could the Turkic Khan be fooled? How could such a result occur? When Li Xiang entered the Turks earlier, General Kang Ying did not have this worry. At that time, he thought that it would be very good if Li Xiang could handle Li You's matter. Unexpectedly, Li Xiang exceeded the task and not only He rescued Li You and allowed the Turks to reach this point.
"I thought that we were all friends and could speak a little more gently. Now it seems that I was wrong. The general has always regarded me as an enemy. But there is something strange that I feel. Since the general regards me as an enemy, If so, why do you need to remind me before leaving?"
"
Li Xiang said a little strangely.
"It's very simple. I just hope that the status quo can be maintained. You Tang Dynasty will get what you deserve, our country can still be preserved, and our people can still have their own country. This is the best ending, but there is no such thing as Thinking that people's hearts are not enough, you have turned the Turks into this state, making our monarchs and ministers suspicious of each other."
General Kang Ying can understand this matter, but what can he do if he understands it? Can you run out and explain to others? If you explain this matter, it just proves a sentence, that is, explanation is a cover-up.
In addition to Khan, even some of General Kang Ying's acquaintances in Western Turks are a little bit confused about the situation now. After all, everything is developing against Khan.
