The situation settled down so strangely. Li Jing was also worried that Jieli had some conspiracy and tricks, so he sent scouts to investigate every day, but the news he got was that there was no abnormality, and there was no change even in Dingxiang City.

Every day, there are still a lot of herdsmen who come to Dingxiang City to spend the winter, and the city is also cautious, and the city gate is only open for half an hour a day. Everyone had to be searched and identified before they could enter the city.

There are also officers and soldiers who suggested to Li Jing to take advantage of the opening of the city gate to send people disguised as herdsmen to steal the city gate, but Li Jing refused, seeing that he was so sure of his handsomeness, the people below did not worry about it, the camp seemed peaceful, eating mutton and horse meat every day, everyone was on fire, and this food was much better than in Mayi.

After more than ten days like this, I suddenly saw a black line in the snow in the distance slowly moving over, and the scout reported happily: "Chief, the reinforcements have arrived, and Lord Wei Chi has arrived with the infantry army."

The cavalry below also thundered with joy, for so many days, everyone was scared, for fear that the Turks would come to sneak attack, and they didn't dare to close their eyes when they slept, and now they finally looked forward to the reinforcements. Li Dongsheng was also very excited, and he could finally rest well. You can also see the legendary door god Chi Gong.

Yu Chigong is really as dark as the legend, and he is burly: "I've seen the chief manager, I'm not too late, right?" ”

Li Jing smiled and said, "Jingde, I'll wait for you." Haha, now it's time to break the city. Did that person bring it? ”

"The chief manager has an order, and I have to complete it even if I lose my head, haha." In the military tent. Li Jing and Wei Chi Jingde talked and laughed very well, they were old friends, and their speech was not as clear as that of ordinary superiors and subordinates.

"Bring that guy here." Wei Chi Jingde made a move, and then laughed: "I heard that you wiped out five thousand cavalry in one battle, and you didn't lose a single person, is it really fake?" Dingxiang City has not dared to fight until now? ”

Li Jing said lightly: "It's nothing, it's just that the strategy is set well, and it's just a little clever." ”

"Hahaha, you have this expression every time, my son is right, your nephew is the same as you, and he has such a face that is not beaten."

At this time, the guards brought a man in, and by looking at his curly hair and brown eyes, he knew that he was also a Sogdian, and as soon as he entered the tent, he knelt on the ground: "Thank you Changshengtian, today let me see the most brave warrior, the pride of the Tang Dynasty." ”

Li Jing was amused by his words: "Bayin, do you know what I mean by calling you?" ”

"Lord Wei Chi told me, let me enter Dingxiang City to recruit Kang Sumi."

"Do you have faith?"

"My lord, to be honest, I really don't have faith, but I grew up with him, so I can bring him the words."

"Bayin, if Kang Sumi can surrender, you tell him that I can take Kang Sumi as the first meritorious hero to tell Your Majesty, as long as I can take Dingxiang City, I will personally ask Your Majesty for him. Don't worry about your merits, I can give you the piece of grassland you want near Dingxiang City. ”

"To-morrow I will go into the city with the herdsmen, and if it succeeds, I will arrange for people to draw circles with three torches on the city walls. As for the reward, the villain heard that the flower water is your family's property, and I beg you to be my agent on the grassland. ”

Looking at Bayin's excited look, it is completely a typical example of asking for money and not wanting to die. Li Jing agreed: "Okay, as long as you can say that Kang Sumi will sacrifice the city, the agent of the entire grassland will be you." ”

On the third day, the scout reported that Bayinchan had entered the city among the herdsmen, and why should he have an extra day, for he had traveled a little farther, and had spent a day with a herdsman's family. Otherwise, there is nothing around him, and none of the herdsmen know him, so he is not falling into a trap.

Li Jing and Wei Chi Jingde knew that after Bayin entered the city, they lay back at the same time: "Let's wait for the news." ”

Jieli looked at the Tang army under the city with an ugly face at the head of the city, and camped under the Dingxiang city, and a large number of Tang troops set up banners, erected antlers and walled gates, and looked like a long-term siege and said: "National teacher. . . Now you see? ”

Zhao Deyan smiled bitterly and said, "Great Khan, now that Li Jing and Wei Chi Jingde are in the same army, they are strong, and this battle is not easy to fight." ”

Jieli's face was even more ugly, originally in his opinion, as long as he held Dingxiang City and did not have direct contact with the Tang army, the weather was cold, and the Tang Dynasty estimated that he would withdraw his troops, and if he couldn't beat it, he could also flee to the north of Youzhou, and now that the Tang army reinforcements are coming, it will be troublesome now.

"Great Khan, please make a decision early, I don't have enough troops in the city, the Tang army is menacing, we still have Xue Yantuo in the grassland, and Tuli is also allied with the Tang Dynasty, we still have to preserve our strength is a long-term solution, the Han people have a saying that the green mountains are not worried about no firewood." Kang Su Mi Dao.

Jieli came back to his senses and said, "Let me think about it again!" Obsessed with losing his thinking power, has Ashina recovered from his injury? ”

Obsessively bowed down and said, "Great Khan, his body is fine." ”

"Go and tell him, let him lead a thousand men and prepare them for me."

Lost in thought and ordered to go. The others already knew in their hearts when they saw Jieli arranging this, and the Great Khan was leaving. Jieli looked at the dense Tang army camp and said, "You carefully observe the movements of the Tang army and report to me at any time!" ”

After the order was issued, Jieli took the people back to the meeting hall, and as soon as he sat down, he said impatiently: "National teacher, I want to move the sweat tent back, what do you think?" ”

"Great Khan, now that the Tang army has not yet gained a stable foothold, we can first go to the tentative attack to see if the Tang army is real." Zhao Deyan looked at this sweat, in just a few days, his hair was a lot whiter, and the skin on his face had a lot of wrinkles, he was just an old man, and he no longer had the ambition he had back then.

"The main thing is that the troops in my city are empty, and there are dead and wounded when I try, I want to temporarily retreat to Tieshan, and when the water and grass are abundant next year, we Turks will immediately go south when they recover their vitality, and the Han people say that it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years."

"The Great Khan is wise, and the Han people say that lying on the salary and tasting the gall, and being able to bend and stretch is a big husband." It's Kang Sumi's sycophant again.

Zhao Deyan glanced at each other, knowing that Jieli's mind had been decided, and it was useless to object. Zhao Deyan said: "Then let me defend the city, Great Khan, you see when you will take Di Luo Shi with you, but Empress Xiao, Princess Yicheng and Yang Zhengdao will be taken away, if they are there, the Han people on the grassland will not be chaotic." ”

"Now I can't take care of them, they stay in the city, now the soldiers are fast, the city has enough food and grass, as long as the national teacher can survive until spring, I can organize the warriors on the grassland to avenge today's revenge."
