When the emperor comes to modern times, history collapses!

Chapter 148 Teleporting to Kill the Turks

Li Shimin looked at the letter sent by Jie Li Khan.

Different from the previous conditions, this time he not only wanted money and food, but also wanted to meet Li Yuan.

Li Shimin slammed the table in anger.

I am the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. What do you mean by meeting the Emperor Emeritus?

"My dear ministers, Jie Li Khan has arrived at the Wei River. How should the Tang Dynasty respond?"

The official representing the family expressed his position again.

"Your Majesty, I think we can agree to their request. It's just some money, food and cloth. Using these things to buy the Tang Dynasty a few years of recuperation is also acceptable!"

"Jie Li Khan is approaching Chang'an. The city is now short of troops and is in danger of being breached at any time. I beg Your Majesty to move to the Eastern Capital Luoyang!"

"The Turks are only after money. As long as we satisfy them, they will surely leave on their own!"

"I am willing to negotiate with the Turks on behalf of Your Majesty!"

"I think we can make peace with the Turks!"

The generals in the court naturally refused, as no matter which choice they made, it would be a slap in the face.

As a military general, he was unable to defend his country and was attacked by foreigners in the capital, which was a shame no matter how you looked at it.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to lead the army out of the city and fight the Turks to the death!"

"Your Majesty, you must not agree to this, otherwise it will be recorded in history books!"

"How can we rely on a mere woman to protect the safety of our country?"

Zhang Sun Wuji said: "Your Majesty, I think we should fight to the end. The walls of Chang'an are tall. As long as we can hold off the Turks for a while, reinforcements will arrive and the crisis will be resolved!"

Fang Xuanling also stood up and said, "I agree. If we sign the city surrender agreement today, we will be worse than the Sui Dynasty!"

Du Ruhui bowed and said, "Your Majesty aspires to be the greatest emperor in history. How can an emperor sign a treaty under siege?"

The former officials of the Tian Ce Mansion stood up one after another and expressed their determination to fight the Turks to the death!

Li Shimin stood up from the dragon chair and said, "Okay, I have decided to fight the Turks to the end. If the city survives, the people will live. If the city is destroyed, the people will die!"

The officials representing the aristocratic families were a little surprised.

According to their analysis, Li Shimin should agree to peace talks and then empty the national treasury.

Only in this way can we better control Li Shimin.

Unexpectedly, Li Shimin chose to fight hard.

"Your Majesty, Chang'an is short of troops and the Turks are coming fiercely. I'm afraid we can't hold out for long. Please think twice!"

Li Shimin waved his hand: "No need, I have made up my mind!"

After leaving the court.

The Guanlong nobles gathered together.

"I didn't expect Li Shimin to choose to fight. It's a bit unexpected!"

"After all, I have been leading troops in battles, and I am full of vigor and vitality. It is not impossible for me to make such a choice."

"If the Turks really attack the city, how should we deal with it?"

"Once the Turks enter Chang'an, I'm afraid they won't let go of our property either. That would be like shooting ourselves in the foot!"

“Would Jie Li Khan dare to do that? If he really did that, then the noble families like me would join forces to fully support the new emperor’s northern expedition. In a few years, it might not be certain whether the Turks would still exist. You know, even if all the industries in Chang’an were lost, it would not be a serious loss to us!”

"Brother Dugu is right. If that's the case, let's write a letter to Jie Li Khan to explain the matter. If it doesn't work, we can just give Chang'an to him. By then, Li Tang will probably be even more dependent on us."

"Just do it!"

Jie Li Khan read the letter and could not help but say, "As expected, there is not a single good person in the aristocratic family. They have no sense of national justice at all, but I like it."

"I never thought that Li Shimin is so tough. I can't let him look down on me. Pass the order down. The army will rest for an hour and continue to move forward!"

The Turks rode war horses and marched very quickly.

Not long after, Jie Li Khan led hundreds of thousands of troops to the outskirts of Chang'an.

Li Shimin, wearing armor, stood on the city wall, looking at the black mass of cavalry in the distance.

There was a sneer on his face.

"This time, I will make sure you never come back!"

"Pass the order and have all soldiers get ready. In less than half an hour, the Turkic army will appear under the city wall!"

After arranging the soldiers to defend the city, Li Shimin pulled Zhu Ming and whispered, "Brother Zhu, it's up to you now. You must bring reinforcements. Otherwise, the Tang Dynasty will be finished."

Zhu Ming patted Li Shimin on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry. If it's one of our own people fighting one of our own, I may not care. But if it's a foreign race, I will have to hire a group of people for you. When they arrive, they will give you a signal."

Li Shimin took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I'll wait for your signal. Even though the Turks have a large number of people, they can't break through Chang'an in a short time."

Came to Wude Tang Dynasty.

Li Jiancheng prepared an army of 300,000.

"When I think about helping Zhenguan Li Shimin fight, I always feel a little uncomfortable!"

Zhu Ming smiled and said, "You are not comfortable with having a new crown princess and several daughters."

Li Jiancheng chuckled: "I wonder how the two of them are getting along now?"

In the palace.

Li Yuan looked at the two princesses and was actually a little envious of his son Li Jiancheng.

He also lived the life of Yang Guang. Looking back at himself, he was lonely and could only look for palace maids at most. He had no spiritual belonging.

Bring Li Jiancheng and his army to the corresponding location in Zhenguan.

Zhu Ming found Zhu Di again.

Compared with Li Jiancheng, Zhu Di easily gathered an army of 500,000.

"After waiting for so long, you are finally here!"

Zhu Ming couldn't help but say, "You often lead troops to fight in the Tang Dynasty. I don't know when you will get tired of fighting."

Zhu Di shook his head: "We are fighting our own people here, it is more satisfying to fight foreigners. The Turks from Zhenguan have all moved south, and I don't know when the Turks from Wude will move south."

Zhu Ming: "With these millions of people left here, I don't think he would dare to go south, and he might even go north."

Zhu Di sighed: "Sometimes, having too many soldiers and generals can also be a problem!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Ming kicked him into the space-time tunnel.

The Turkic army arrived outside the city of Chang'an.

Jie Li Khan sent people to quarrel with Li Shimin.

In the past, Jie Li Khan was a little afraid of the Tang Dynasty, after all, he inherited the wealth of the Sui Dynasty.

Now the letters from the noble families have clearly explained the current situation of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin had just launched a coup, and it was uncertain whether the generals from all over the country would be loyal to him.

For example, Li Yi directly let the Turks in.

With the help of aristocratic families, Jie Li Khan knew Chang'an's background better than Li Shimin himself.

Not inferior to Li Shimin at all.

After a while of scolding, Jie Li Khan saw that Li Shimin refused to give in.

Jie Li Khan was furious that he didn't get any benefit at all.

He shouted: "Attack the city!"

Siege vehicles were pushed out one after another by the Turks.

Li Shimin was furious when he saw this.

These siege chariots were obviously made by the Tang Dynasty. Without much thought, we know who provided them!
When Li Shimin heard Li Yuan talking about the aristocratic families before, he didn't take it seriously. But now he realizes that they are just a group of vampires with no bottom line.

He has no sense of country at all, and only cares about family interests!

"Assholes, these noble families, I will teach you a lesson sooner or later!"

With an order.

The Turks officially attacked the city.

Suddenly, there was a loud noise.

A siege ladder that was pushed to the city wall disappeared in an instant.

Both Li Shimin and Jie Li Khan were attracted by the huge explosion.

"What happened just now?" "How could there be thunder in a clear sky?"

When the two were confused.

Suddenly, a red line appeared in the distant sky, connecting the sky and the earth.

Li Shimin was overjoyed, knowing that reinforcements had arrived.

"Hold on, everyone, notify everyone, reinforcements are here!"

Jie Li Khan also saw the wolf smoke, frowned, and felt something was wrong.

But thinking about how much prestige the fall of Chang'an would bring to him, when he returns to the grassland, no one would dare to disobey him!

Jie Li Khan has been firmly trapped here.

Continue the siege!

The cavalry responsible for guarding the surroundings came to Jie Li Khan with a terrified look on his face.

"Great Khan, thirty thousand cavalry have been spotted ten miles to the left!"

"Great Khan, 20,000 cavalrymen have been spotted ten miles to the right!"

"Great Khan, a large army suddenly appeared in the rear, at least 300,000 people!"

Jie Li Khan was stunned for a moment: "What did you say? Tens of thousands of cavalry, hundreds of thousands of troops, are you sure you didn't see it wrong?"

"I will observe carefully, there are only more and no less!"

Jie Li Khan yelled angrily: "What are you doing? Why did you find out now? Didn't I ask you to check the entire area within a hundred miles in advance?"

These Turkic cavalrymen who were on guard also felt aggrieved.

Before coming to Chang'an City, they set off first.

I checked the surrounding area thoroughly and didn't find any troops at all.

They also didn't know where these troops came from.

If you say that he just happened to pass by, that's definitely impossible. It's obvious that he came prepared.

Jie Li Khan suddenly thought of something and cursed: "It must be those noble families who did it. They deliberately colluded with the new emperor and tricked me here. Come on, bring all the envoys from the noble families up here!"

Several messengers from aristocratic families were eating a roasted whole lamb.

Suddenly several Turkic soldiers appeared and said coldly.

"Our Great Khan wants to see you!"

Several people were brought before Jie Li Khan.

Smelling the familiar smell, Jie Li Khan was furious: "Well, you tricked me here and you're eating and drinking like a prostitute. Come on, chop them up for me!"

The messenger was dumbfounded after hearing this: "Wait a minute, we have never deceived the Khan, why would the Khan do this?"

Jie Li Khan snorted coldly: "Why? Now I have fallen into your trap and jumped into your encirclement. You ask me why!"

The messenger became even more confused after hearing this; they had no idea about this matter.

He hastily defended himself: "Khan, is there any misunderstanding? We have never done this before!"

Jie Li Khan had already made up his mind and didn't listen to their explanations: "You guys go downstairs and explain yourself. They like roasted lamb, don't they? Come and roast them all!"

Looking at the tense siege battle ahead.

Jie Li Khan came to his senses and knew that he could not continue attacking the city, otherwise all of his men would die here.

Withdraw troops immediately!

The distance of ten miles is neither close nor far.

Jie Li Khan could already hear the vibration coming from the ground.

The cavalry on both sides have caught up.

Jie Li Khan took a breath of cold air.

Among them, 10,000 cavalrymen, both soldiers and horses, were wearing armor and were obviously heavy cavalry.

The two sides just fought each other, and Jie Li Khan found that his men suffered heavy casualties.

Fortunately, they had already broken out of the formation where the heavy cavalry were assembled.

If the heavy cavalry had not been unable to sustain speed, Jie Li Khan estimated that the price he paid would have been several times greater.

These heavily armored cavalry did not look back, but quickly gathered together.

Watched Jie Li Khan leave.

A moment later, Zhu Ming appeared in front of the heavy cavalry.

"Come on, let's go to the next point and wait for them."

After a moment, the surrounding heavily armored cavalry disappeared.

Jie Li Khan continued to flee towards the north.

Suddenly, a large army appeared in front of us.

In front, there is a row of strange things.

Xu Da narrowed his eyes slightly: "Fire!"

Dozens of hell cannons made a deafening sound.

Dozens of gas cylinders fell among the Turks, causing violent explosions.

Some unlucky Turks were directly torn into pieces.

Those who were a little further away were also shaken to the point of having their blood boiling.

The war horses, in particular, were all frightened and completely out of control.

Seeing this, Xu Da immediately rushed over with his cavalry.

One side has a neat formation, while the other side is flying around like flies.

It was almost a one-sided harvest.

If Xu Da had not controlled the situation by killing the horses first and then the people, it is estimated that none of the surrounding Turks would have escaped.

Many Turks were frightened and dismounted from their horses and knelt on the ground.

Jie Li Khan was lucky because he was far away and was not greatly affected by the gas tank explosion.

Seeing the situation getting out of control.

Without any hesitation, he abandoned tens of thousands of Turkic subordinates and fled in other directions.

Soon, he met Li Jinglong.

Li Jinglong did not intercept the Turks head-on, but instead led tens of thousands of people to lie down on the side of the road where the Turks were going to pass.

"We'll fight after we've made sure of everything. We'll fight the horses first. Without the horses, the Turks will be a walking labor force. They can help us build bridges, roads, and open up wasteland!"

Jie Li Khan was still in shock.

After running for an hour, he found that he did not encounter any enemies and thought he had escaped the encirclement.

"Damn it, I finally got out. Wait, I will definitely come back!"

"Snapped!"

A gunshot suddenly occurred.

The next moment, there were sounds of "da da da da" all around.

Jie Li Khan was shocked to find that his soldiers were falling to the ground one by one.

There was no time to think and he continued to lead his men to escape.

Tens of thousands of war horses and Turks were left on the ground.

Looking at the direction where Jie Li Khan fled.

Li Jinglong took out his intercom and said, "Haha, you are worthy of being called Lord Potato. You are so smart that you knew the Turks would pass by here and asked us to prepare in advance. I admire you very much."

Zhu Ming's eyelids twitched and he thought to himself that he was a talented person. Every time he spoke to Li Jinglong on the phone, he always felt very pleased.

Although it was Zhu Di who arranged Li Jinglong, he felt comfortable listening to him: "What's the matter? Tell me now!"

Li Jinglong straightened his face and said, "Lord Potato, the Turks are fleeing in the direction of two o'clock."

Zhu Ming nodded: "Okay, I'll take people there right away!"
