Nan Jiyun and Ge Luolu's army totaling 60,000 people were in the north of Suiye City. Feng Changqing led the Anxi Army in the west of Suiye City, while Zhang Xuan's main army of 250,000 troops was advancing from the east.
Today, Suiye City has fallen into heavy siege. Less than 100,000 people from Tuqi Shi's remaining troops are huddled in Suiye City. There is no way to go to heaven and no way to go to earth.
Tuqi Shiren did not expect that destruction was right in front of him. But when the catastrophe of national subjugation and genocide was looming in front of them, the powerful upper-class dignitaries of Tuqishi became a little panicked.
In Suiye City, the Tuqi Shi army was in a state of disarray. The 70,000 to 80,000 troops and horses entrenched in Suiye City were already the last strength of the Tuo Qi Shi people. In fact, before this, nearly 200,000 tribal people from Tu Qi Shi had already fallen. into the hands of the Chinese dynasty. Strictly speaking, the Tuqishi people who lost their homeland were considered to have been destroyed.
In the city.
The Tuqi Shi Khan, the Fire Breathing Immortal, sat high on the throne, staring fiercely at the powerful generals standing on both sides, and growled in a low voice, "The Han army is pressing down on the border, Broken Leaf City is in danger, do you have any good strategy to retreat from the enemy? "
The Prime Minister of Tuqishi, Ganhe, the largest tribal leader in Tuqishi, sighed deeply in his heart. He went out and saluted with clasped fists and said, "Khan, I thought that the Chinese Emperor's 300,000 troops and horses besieged the city, and the defenders of Suiye City would not be able to hold it. , it is better to gather the strength of the whole army, rush out a gap from the northwest, then retreat to the land of the big food, and ask for help from the big food people."
The fire-breathing immortal glanced at Qianhe coldly, exhaled a long breath and said, "The Great Eater is even more unreliable! I had asked the Great Eater for help before, but the Great Eater wrote back and said that as long as the Chinese Dynasty does not invade, Eating the country and eating people will not be enemies of the Chinese emperor for the time being!"
"We can't rely on these jackal-like cannibals. This time, whether Tuqishi will live or die, we can only rely on ourselves!" The fire-breathing immortal suddenly slapped the table and shouted, "Do you have any good ideas? Life or death depends on it. At this moment, do you have to sit back and wait for death?"
Qianye, the general of Tuqi Shi, sneered, "Khan, what's there to be afraid of? I, Tuqi Shi Iron Cavalry, have nearly 100,000 people. They are brave and good at fighting in the Western Region and are invincible. As long as Khan gives the order, Qianye is willing to lead me." The sudden rider Shi Erlang fought his way out of Suiye City and beheaded the Emperor of China outside Suiye City! As long as the Emperor of China dies, the Chinese army will retreat without a fight!"
Qianhe looked at Qianye and curled his lips, "Our army only has 80,000 people, while the Chinese army has nearly 300,000, and there are also Ge ??Luolu and Uighur troops and horses to help. We are outnumbered. Qianye, you still dare to speak arrogantly. , You are so brazen! Do you want to kill the Emperor of China? I am afraid that you will bury my 80,000 Tuqi Shi Erlang in vain!"
Qianye was furious and yelled angrily, "Then what do you think we should do? Do we just stay in Suiye and let the Han people slaughter us? I am invincible in the Western Regions, so how can I suffer such humiliation!"
"Okay, then, let's ask General Qianye to lead the army to fight. If you can kill the Emperor of China, you will be the hero of Tuqi Shiren!" Qianhe smiled sarcastically, "However, if General Qianye really If you want to go to war, I advise Qianye that you should choose the direction of the Geluolu people - there are so many fierce generals in the army of the Emperor of China, and you are just trying to attack them with an egg against a stone."
"Okay, let's stop arguing! The enemy is facing us, and the catastrophe of the country's annihilation and annihilation is right in front of us, but you are having internal strife!" The fire-breathing fairy stood up angrily, and the scimitar in his hand stabbed the case in front of him hatefully. There was a soft buzzing sound on the table.
"Khan, if you can't count on cannibalism, in order to protect Tuqishi, I think it's better to open the city and surrender. I heard that the Chinese emperor liked beauty and once accepted Uighur and Tubo women as his concubines. Why not choose dozens of beauties from our tribe? , ten carts of treasures, send people out of the city to offer them to the Emperor of China, and beg for surrender!"
Qianhe sighed and no longer continued to "butt the cow" with Qianye. Instead, he knelt on the ground and persuaded loudly.
Qianhe¡¯s words won the hearts of some Tuqishi dignitaries, and many people immediately knelt down and joined in urging the Fire Immortal to surrender.
"If Zhang Xuan heard Qianhe's comment about his "love of beauty", he would definitely be so angry that he would vomit blood on the spot - as an emperor, there are not few women around him, but not too many. At the very least, it is far from being greedy for beauty. This misunderstanding has become serious.
The fire-breathing fairy's eyebrows suddenly raised.
Qianye and other generals suddenly changed their expressions and reprimanded, "You bastard! I, Tuqishi, are a powerful country in the Western Regions. How can we beg for mercy from the Han people? This is unreasonable! Khan, we are willing to lead our troops out of the city and fight to the death with the Han people." To the end! Please allow the Khan!"
The fire-breathing fairy's expression changed, and he suddenly walked away.
¡¡

Zhang Xuan was not in a hurry to attack Suiye City.
Suiye City is not a big city. If a large army attacks from three directions, it will not take three days.?can be captured. Therefore, Zhang Xuan is not in a hurry. He was patiently waiting for the internal strife of the Tuqishi people. With the army pressing down on the country and the destruction of the country and the annihilation of the clan, it would be strange if there were no problems within the Tuqishi people.
Of course, his patience has its limits. He had already decided that if Tuqishi Khan spit fire immortal did not leave the city and surrender after ten days, he would order three armies to attack at the same time, and in one battle, Tuqishi would be completely wiped out and never give them a chance to stand up again.
Zhang Xuan had already made arrangements for the sudden cavalry. In fact, he had already ordered his servant Gu Huai'en to make arrangements to gather more than 100,000 captured Tuqishi tribesmen and move eastward, and immigrate them to Hexi for resettlement.
Without the support of the army, ordinary Tuqishi tribesmen cannot make any waves at all. In time, they will thrive in the land of Hexi as Chinese subjects and be completely naturalized.
The camp is the king¡¯s tent.
Zhang Xuan couldn¡¯t help laughing after reading the apology letter sent by Nan Jiyun.
He conveniently threw Nan Jiyun's melodies to Guo Ziyi. After seeing it, Guo Ziyi's face became a little strange.
¡° Then Guo Ziyi forwarded this memorial to other generals. Everyone read it one by one and couldn¡¯t help but laugh. In the end, Lei Wanchun curled his lips and said disdainfully, "This Nanba is really lustful! Your Majesty asked him to escort Princess Geluolu when she returned, but he did a good job and hooked up with her princess Tsk, tsk, it's really embarrassing. Your Majesty, I believe that Nan Ba ??should be severely punished for showing disgrace to my Chinese imperial court!"
Zhang Xuan smiled slightly, looked at Lei Wanchun and said, "Old Lei, what do you think I should do with Nan Ba?"
Lei Wanchun was speechless for a moment. He and Nan Jiyun had an old relationship. They had a good personal relationship, and they were both close ministers and confidants of the emperor. What he said just now was just a few subconscious mutterings. Hearing that the emperor really wanted to deal with Nan Jiyun made him a little panicked.
"Your Majesty, this, this, Nanba must have been confused for a moment. Your Majesty, please spare him this time. When Lao Lei sees him, he will kick him hard. This is simply unreasonable. You bastard, as a The general of the imperial court is actually greedy for women! A Tuqishi woman is nothing, just kill her!"
Lei Wanchun smiled and bowed down.
Zhang Xuan sighed, "You are talking nonsense, you are the one who really deserves to be beaten!"
"The general has been convicted!" Lei Wanchun knelt down obediently.
Zhang Xuan was dumbfounded, waved his hands and said, "You guy! Get out of here!"
"Come here, send someone to the Nanba Army to announce my decree - Nanba, when Tuqi Shi is destroyed, I will definitely give you ten more Tuqi Shi women as concubines!" Zhang Xuan laughed loudly, "Lei Wan Spring, the same goes for you. If you make meritorious deeds in this battle, I won¡¯t credit you with any merit, and will offset it with a reward of beautiful women! Don¡¯t say ten or eight, even if it¡¯s a hundred or ten, I won¡¯t be stingy!¡±
Lei Wanchun was startled, raised his head and said in surprise, "Your Majesty, it's useless for the general to have so many women. It's better to give some gold and silver as a reward Can the general want gold and silver without women?"
Guo Ziyi and others could no longer control themselves and burst into laughter.
Lei Wanchun actually had no idea that the emperor was amusing him and making fun of him, but he was just pretending to be stupid. Although he is very straight-forward, he is not a fool.
There was only one person in the tent who was not smiling, and that was Tian Kexin, who no longer covered her face with a veil.
While the monarch and his ministers were laughing, they suddenly heard a soldier coming to report: "Your Majesty, the Immortal Shi Khan spitting fire suddenly sent an envoy to ask for an audience!"
Zhang Xuan's smile faded and she said calmly, "Invite him to come in."
¡¡
¡¡
"My ministers suddenly rode on Shi Guo, Xiang Ganhe, to pay homage to His Majesty the Emperor of China!" Qianhe knelt down respectfully on the ground and performed a great salute to pay homage.
"Why are you here?" Zhang Xuan smiled lightly, "To be honest, there is no need to show off in front of me."
"Yes, Your Majesty. On the orders of the Tuqishi Khan, I have come to offer thirty beauties, ten treasured cars, and hundreds of BMWs to show the sincerity of my Khan's request for peace." Ganhe observed carefully. Zhang Xuan's expression changed and he smiled.
"Seek peace?" Zhang Xuan was stunned, then smiled coldly, "My three-pronged army besieged Suiye City, Tuqi Shi's country has been destroyed by me, and a mere 80,000 people from the Fire-Tumbling Immortal are entrenched in Suiye City, but they are just hanging on. That¡¯s all, what qualifications do you have to ask for peace with me?¡±
"Tuqishi has been destroyed. Remember my words, go back and tell the fire-breathing immortal that I will give him another five days. If he does not leave the city and surrender, Suiye City will be in ruins when my army arrives. No more!" Zhang Xuan suddenly slapped the table and said coldly.
Qianhe¡¯s face suddenly changed. Only then did he suddenly realize that the Emperor of China had been intent on destroying Tu Qishi from the beginning to the end, even if the Fire Breathing Immortal returned.?, Tuqishi is also destined to destroy the country. Fire-breathing immortal's surrender could save his own life, but Tuqi Shi could not.
Qianhe's face was as pale as earth. He stood up silently and bowed to Zhang Xuan. Then he staggered out of the emperor's tent in a daze, mounted his horse and galloped back to Suiye City.
As soon as Qian He left, Tian Kexin suddenly left the squad and said softly, "Your Majesty, do you really want the fire-breathing fairy to leave the city and surrender? After the fire-breathing fairy returns and surrenders, what will your majesty do with these 80,000 sudden cavalry?"
Zhang Xuan raised his eyebrows and went down silently. Tian Kexin raised an issue that he ignored, a very serious issue.
Guo Ziyi and others also looked at each other, their expressions becoming a little complicated.
Yes, Tian Kexin is right. Do we really want the fire-breathing immortal to surrender? Once the Fire Breathing Immortal returns, what should we do with these 80,000 sudden cavalrymen? Integrated into the army, they must always be on guard against rebellion by the Tuqishi people After all, 80,000 Tuqishi cavalry is also a considerable military force.
