Chapter 708: Accepting defeat in a meaningful way
The Western Turkic Khan's face was ashen. He was very dissatisfied with what Abalasha said, but now he had no other choice unless he wanted to face the thousands of troops of the Tang Empire. , otherwise he would have to listen here honestly.
Originally, I wanted to give people a warning, let them make various promises to the Western Turks, and then promise not to ruin the reputation of the Tang Dynasty, but now Li Xiang directly took advantage of it, and the Western Turks Khan started from scratch. After thinking about it for a while, I realized that all this was caused by my lack of courage.
But there is no way to regret it now. If the whole thing can be repeated again, maybe he can perform better, but the strategy is basically useless at this time. The most important thing is the strength of both parties.
Abalasha used all his strength to reduce his country to worthlessness and praise the Tang Dynasty. This finally made Li Xiang stop, but Li Xiang still did not return to his original state. In the position of standing at the door, I have to leave at any time.
"Since you don't want to start a war, you should show something. In the dictionary of our Han people, asking for help requires payment. Just now your Khan spoke so slowly. I thought you had hundreds of thousands of Turkic cavalry. We are ready for battle, but it doesn’t seem like that now?”
At this time, Li Xiang began to ridicule the Khans of the Western Turks. He knew what the Khans of the Western Turks were thinking now. If he cooperated with them immediately, it would mean that everything just now was an act. The more outrageous you say, the stronger you are. Everything you just showed is true, and there is absolutely no falsehood at all.
The Western Turkic Khan could not see Li Xiang's face, but he could hear every word Li Xiang said, and he could hear it clearly. The king of a country was slapped in the face like this. He should be the first person in Turkic history The most useless person on earth.
This guy clenched his two fists fiercely. He also wanted to go over and beat Li Xiang violently, but he couldn't do that. He had to see clearly the true strength between the two sides. In terms of military fighting, But I still rely on them financially. If you go over and punch them twice, how will the people below live their lives?
What's more, Li Xiang just showed his strength. If you go over and beat someone now, they might kill you. At least you won't be able to insert a sheep bone into the stool.
"The combat effectiveness of our Turkic cavalry is very strong, but we have absolutely no intention of becoming an enemy of the Tang Dynasty. There were some misunderstandings between our two countries in the past, but now they have all been resolved. All matters concerning His Highness King Qi have been settled. Give it to us and we’ll figure it out.”
When Abalasha said this, he looked at a guard in the distance. This guard could see Abalasha and the Western Turk Khan. This was what had been agreed before. If Abalasha was What Sha promised was too much, and the guard would take other actions, which meant that these things should not be discussed further. But now there is no action, which shows that the Western Turk Khan can tolerate this matter.
"You are now saying that you have solved it. How did you tell me at the beginning? You want to tell the world about this matter. You want the world to see how we, the descendants of the Imperial Family of the Tang Dynasty, do things. We also want to give an explanation to the prince of your country. , now don’t the princes of your country have to explain? My wife was slept with by someone else, which would be a big deal in other places, how can you, the prince of Turks, tolerate it? "
What Li Xiang is doing now is to kill people and punish people, and he must be fair and unforgiving. Only in this way can the Western Turk Khan feel that you are nothing more than a toy in Li Xiang's eyes. You are really I don’t take you guys seriously, aren’t we just going to fight? Could it be that I, Datang, cannot afford to fight?
"His Royal Highness the Emperor's Grandson..."
Faced with Li Xiang's aggressiveness, Abalasha didn't know how to respond. After all, he was also a Turk. What Li Xiang said was tantamount to offending all the Turks, but the current situation was worse than human beings. Strong, I have the ability to say this. If you don't want to hear it, you don't have to hide at the door and just ask Li Xiang to go out. According to what Li Xiang said, everyone continues to come on the battlefield.
"Okay, okay, I know that you are just a business person, so I won't make it difficult for you. Now you go and write an edict, and then put all the seals on the card, and this matter will be over. Let’s talk about other things.”
Li Xiang knows that Shilin is in sight rather than Yilin in hand. Although there are many things now, as long as we have a clear mind, we can handle them one by one. Judging from Abalasha's performance, the Western Turks really have no The idea of resorting to war.
"I wonder if there is anything else your Highness has to do?"
When Abalasha said this, the Western Turkic Khan inside also stretched his ears, hoping to hear Li Xiang's next plan, but Abalasha did not get the result he wanted. Li Xiang His eyes were already wide open, and he could only quickly ask someone to prepare pen and ink.
An edict was quickly written. It was ordered that this matter could not be discussed any further. It just said that His Royal Highness the Prince of the Tang Dynasty was a man of rules and would never do similar things. All faults were attributed to him. It arrived on the woman's body and was also written with attempted seduction.
"I'm afraid this won't convince the public. Some people who spread rumors should be punished. Why can they continue to enjoy life? This has caused great harm to my fifth uncle. Now I am afraid of seeing others. ."
In order to strive for authenticity, those who spread rumors must be punished, but the people who spread rumors are all Western Turkic nobles, and they are all high-ranking nobles. If they are all punished, there are some things that are really hard to say. ah.
But now Li Xiang is watching here. Abalasha is sitting on the ground. There is a small table in front of him. Li Xiang puts one foot on the small table, then puts his hand on his thigh, and just lies down to watch. Written by Abalasha.
Captain Zuoting...
Kent tribe leader...
Commander of the Royal Guards...
Abalasha wrote down nine people in one go, and read out each person's name. This was also to let the Western Turkic Khan hear. If these nine people were not killed, the rumors would definitely continue to spread. Now By killing these people, the rumors will be stopped.
