The corners of Ashina Moye's eyes kept twitching, and his temples Five hundred cavalry sneak attack on Li Zaixing failed, but he beat him to pieces. Even his younger brother Ashina Moduo died on the battlefield. This result was huge. Surprised him. Even though Du Fu stood in front of him, he still refused to believe it. How is this possible? With just that few people, could Li Zaixing defeat his five hundred elite cavalry? He knew that Li Zaixing was very brave, and the scale of this battle was not very big, but after all, his personal bravery could not offset the huge gap in numbers. At most, it could only cause some trouble to his younger brother, and should not affect the final outcome of the war. Unless Li Zaixing ambushed others in secret. That¡¯s definitely the case. Ashina Moye disagreed with Du Fu's arrogance. Du Fu's poems are good and the principles sound good, but for Ashina Mono, this is not enough. If it could be solved by force, he would not have to pay attention to Du Fu's principles. Only when force cannot solve the problem will he consider negotiating with Li Zaixing. Du Fu was not in a hurry. In fact, he was not aware of Ashina Moye's thoughts at all. And his calmness also convinced Ashina Moye to believe that the Tang people were cheating. As time went by, more and more defeated soldiers returned to the city, and Ashina Moye slowly gained a better understanding of the entire war. These understandings supported his idea: Li Zaixing had an ambush, otherwise, facing Ashina Moduo's five hundred elite cavalry, he would not dare to divide his troops. How can we divide our troops when there are insufficient troops? This is contrary to common sense in the art of war. Ashinamono was the first to think it over, and the soldiers who escaped also contributed to the situation intentionally or unintentionally. No one was willing to admit that they were defeated by dozens of people and returned. Even the life of the general was lost, and the battle flag was also destroyed. People took it away. Under the exaggeration of this collective unconsciousness, Li Zaixing's troops increased in number, from dozens to hundreds, and finally to thousands. At this moment, the latest news came from outside the city. People in Zhongcao heard the news and went to defect to Li Zaixing one after another. People in the city could not get out, but it was equally dangerous because they might cooperate with people outside the city at any time. Ashina Moye had a headache. After capturing the true city of Gadida, out of recognition of the bravery and fighting skills of the Zhongcao people, for the sake of safety, he drove most of the Zhongcao people out of the city, leaving only a small number of wealthy households in the city. The people in Zhongcao are not prosperous, and if they are divided into two, the possibility of causing trouble will be small. What was originally a good plan has now turned into trouble. When Li Zaixing comes, people outside the city will be disturbed by the news, and people in the city will also be restless. Once the inside and outside are attacked, the inside should cooperate with the outside, and he can't resist it at all. Especially when more than half of the elite troops are lost and morale is low. Ashina Moye thought about it and met Du Fu again, who was left alone. This time, he had a different face, filled with indignation and rage. "Du Jun, I have found out clearly that these things were all done by my younger brother." Ashina Moye patted the case and said loudly: "He has been doing some little tricks behind my back. I care about my brothers." For my own sake, I didn't argue with him. Now he is so bold to rob the Tang Dynasty captain. It is really audacious and unforgivable. I can't protect him even if the captain kills him well. Wei Renhou, when he comes back, I will tie him up in front of the captain to plead guilty." Du Fu blinked and refused to tell the truth. "It was my lax discipline and poor control of my subordinates that offended the captain. I feel ashamed and ashamed." Ashina Moye said with a smile: "Can you please Mr. Du say a few words of kindness in front of the captain to let him know that I am If he can forgive me for my incompetence, I am willing to invite him into the city and host a banquet. If it is inconvenient, I can also go out to see him and explain to him the issue of Zhongcao's throne. I don¡¯t know, but I was heartbroken after seeing Zhong Cao fall apart, and that¡¯s why I made this decision. If Princess Cao Ye can return to the true city of Gadida, I am willing to give up the throne and continue to serve her. " Ashina Moye said as he spoke. , while asking people to give generous gifts, they also asked people to arrange a big gift to give to Li Zaixing. Then they invited Xue Yu and others who were under house arrest, and tried their best to explain and apologize. Du Fu was very satisfied, accepted the offer, and left the city with great merit. Ashina Monye sent a Tutun named Moganda (a Turkic minister, equivalent to the imperial censor of the Tang Dynasty) to accompany Du Fu out of the city to reward the army. As soon as Du Fu went out, Ashina Moye's face darkened and his smile disappeared without a trace. He turned around and called a confidant: "Immediately send a message to Mohedu Tutun (King of Stone) and Prince Najuchebishi, Bukhanna colluded with the Tang people to occupy the Nine Kingdoms of Zhaowu." "Misunderstanding?" Li Zaixing raised an eyebrow. Pick, the corners of his mouth curled up. "Yes, misunderstanding, misunderstanding." Moganda Tutun kept smiling and explained: "We all love the Tang Dynasty, how dare we fight against the captain?"It was the deputy king who wanted to seek the throne, so he acted behind the king's back. " "Then what happened to Prince Xue Yu? " Moganda repeatedly complained: "Prince Xue Yu's affairs are really none of our business. He met an old friend and got drunk, so he rested in the city for a night. If the captain doesn't believe it, the prince is here and you can ask him. " Li Zaixing glanced at Xue Yu. Xue Yu looked ashamed. He didn't know what was going on. He did meet an old friend yesterday and was dragged to a restaurant to drink. The general situation was similar to what Moganda said. As for the It wasn't that someone was secretly manipulating it, and he had no evidence. Seeing Xue Yu's expression, Li Zaixing stopped entangled in this matter: "What about Adal and Julia? " "Are they back? "Moganda's eyes widened, looking surprised. "We really don't know, they must have misunderstood the king and hid. Captain, this must be a misunderstanding. " "Whether it's a misunderstanding or not, I don't know now. "Li Zaixing waved his hand and interrupted Moganda: "You have also seen how many people I have here. It can be seen that the Zhongcao is still the Zhongcao of the Cao family, not the Zhongcao of the Ashina family. You go back and bring a message to Ashina Moye. If he really becomes the king for the time being, ask him to hand over the throne immediately, withdraw from the true city of Gadida, and wait for the fate of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty and Princess Cao Yena. If I don't see Adal, Julia and others before dawn tomorrow, I will go to the city to look for them myself. " Moganda smacked his lips in embarrassment, not daring to agree. He knew in his heart that Adal and others were locked up as soon as they came back. If they were sent to Li Zaixing, the lie would not continue. But he Not daring to refuse, Li Zaixing was full of murderous intent, and he had the powerful Tang Dynasty behind him. Not to mention Ashina Moye couldn¡¯t resist, even Shi Guo might not have such courage. ¡°Can you¡please give the captain two days of grace? Moganda repeatedly handed over his hand: "The city is in chaos now. It's really hard to find people." " Li Zaixing shook his head, waved his hand, and drove Moganda out. He immediately invited Ibrahim and others, pointing to the gift sent by Ashina Moye: "You're welcome, since Ashina Mo Ye is filial, so let¡¯s not let him down and share it with everyone. "Ibrahim readily agreed. Li Zaixing then distributed the belongings sent by Ashina Moye to the soldiers, and also divided the food and wine that were given to the soldiers. There were not many things, and the most they distributed to each person was One cup and half a cup of wine, and as for the meat, it was not enough, so Li Zaixing had to order it to be boiled into broth. In short, this move achieved good publicity results, and everyone was drinking the broth with wooden bowls. Li Zaixing discussed the military situation with Ibrahim and others. Du Fu was not in the mood to listen. He became interested in the cannibal's poems and found a translator. He was talking freely with one of Ibrahim's army poets. It's a bit reluctant, the level of translation is really not up to their level, and the poetry in the translation is just like wax, which makes an uneducated old man like Li Zaixing frown. Even though Li Zaixing's knowledge of mathematics, physics and chemistry is unparalleled in contemporary times, in the Tang Dynasty. In people's eyes, those who don't know poetry, poetry, and Confucian classics are illiterate and rough. No matter how many miscellaneous knowledge they have, they won't be able to reach the upper echelon of elegance. Just like the Imperial Examination, which prioritizes Jinshi, poetry is also the top priority in learning. Policy and theory are the top priority, and people who memorize Ming Jingke are looked down upon, let alone someone like Li Zaixing who can't even memorize the Analects of Confucius. "Ashina Moye is using a delaying strategy. "Ibrahim first put forward this view, "Currently, Dashi is internally uneasy, and it is difficult to provide him with any help. The best possibility for him is to ask for help from Tuozhe City (Shiguo). Tuozhe City is more than 400 miles away from here, and a quick horse can reach it in one day and one night. This is probably why Ashina Moye had to wait two to three days. "Almedi glanced at Li Zaixing and hesitated: "I heard that the gates of the true city of Gadida have been closed, and no one is allowed to enter or leave. I'm afraid that the people in the city will be killed by that Turk in Ashina Moye. Master, we'd better attack the city as soon as possible. " Li Zaixing frowned slightly. He also had Elmedi's worries, but he also knew that with the current strength of the troops, attacking the city was the absolute last resort. Ashina Moye closed the city gate tightly, obviously preparing to hold on. Once he fails to attack, he will suffer heavy losses. At this time, he cannot afford any major losses and can only establish his prestige with one victory after another. However, it is not advisable for him. He couldn't say in front of so many people that I didn't dare to attack the city and couldn't attack the city. He pondered for a moment and glanced at Du Fu who was talking to the food poet Ji Tongya in the distance: "Almedi, you heard Du Fu. Two new poems? "Almedi was confused. He was talking about war and poetry. Can a poet attack a city? "Don't underestimate the poet."??? Li Zaixing straightened up and patted his thigh: "The first is to attack the enemy with troops, and the second is to attack the enemy. If used well, a poet can be worth millions of soldiers." Please come over to Du Er. I want him to go to Tuozhe City to stop Ashina Moye's thoughts. ¡± . . . ;
