As Jie Li Khan's voice fell, countless anticipated, anxious and worried eyes immediately gathered on Gao Manzheng.

Gao Manzheng looked at Jie Li Khan coldly, took a deep breath, and shouted: "People are in the city, people are in the city, and people are in the city."

Jie Li Khan snorted heavily and said, "I don't know how to lift up." Then he issued an order: "Come, I'll shoot the letter of persuading surrender."

Then, a group of Turkic light cavalry galloped around Mayi City, and the cavalrymen set their bows and arrows and shot letters to the top of the city. Sixteen words were written on the thin note: "The city surrenders, and only the Gao family resisted stubbornly, and the young and old were not kept."

Half an hour later, a golden sound of "Dangdang" came from outside the city. Before the powerful Turkic army launched an attack on the city, it retreated like a tide.

Gao Manzheng picked up a bald arrow, took down the letter of persuasion, glanced at it, couldn't help but sneer, and then tore the note in his hand into pieces, turned his head and asked Li Yao: "Civil Li, what should we do next?"

Li Yao withdrew his gaze from the crowd and replied: "Please take the personal soldiers and go with me."

Gao Manzheng nodded, waved his hand behind him, led a group of personal soldiers to follow Li Yao's footsteps, controlled all the people on the city wall who had interacted with the prisoners, and then concentrated on house arrest in a courtyard, and sent two battalions of soldiers to take turns to guard them.

After everything was settled, Li Yao and Gao Manzheng came to the courtyard where the dissidents were imprisoned and explained to these people personally: "We are just to prevent problems before they happen. All your food and food are the same as others. The Turks are untrustful and shameless. Please don't think about it. When the Turks retreat to Mobei, we will release you."

Later, Gao Manzheng listened to Li Yao's advice and issued an extremely strict ban to the soldiers responsible for detaining strangers: No one is allowed to disclose external information to the detainees, and those who violate their orders will be killed without mercy.

Because the Tang army in Daizhou successfully attacked the camp, the Turkic army did not dare to go out to camp and fight at night again, so the grain supply channel from Yanmen to Mayi was fully restored. The Tiel tribes were naturally not a problem to disobey the Turkic tribes.

The next morning, Jie Li Khan once again led a large army to the city of Mayi in a mighty manner.

This time, the poor captives were taken to the front of the formation again, and then they heard Jie Li Khan shouting from afar: "Ben Khan's patience is limited. From now on, Ben Khan will kill 200 people a day until you surrender to Xiancheng."

As soon as Jie Li Khan finished speaking, a team of Turkic soldiers selected two hundred people from the Han prisoners. These people looked like old, weak, sick and disabled. Driven by the whip of the Turkic soldiers, they knelt in a long row towards the city like lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

Driven by the desire to survive, these prisoners who were originally numb and dull in their expressions were still afraid of death. Many people began to cry loudly, and immediately begged for mercy.

After crying for a long time, Jie Li Khan felt a little strange when he saw that there was no panic on the top of the city, but he still spoke a word with a fierce tone: "Zhou"

With this order, the Turkic soldiers, who were like wolves and tigers, raised their long swords and slashed them down violently. For a moment, blood mist sprayed and human heads rolled.

After the execution, the Turks built a pile of cut heads, and then Jie Li Khan threw down his words "come back tomorrow" and then he hurriedly withdrew his troops.

Looking at the entire process, some smart people on the city can't help but admire the foresight of General Manager Gao and Censor Li. If they hadn't taken timely measures, there would be a lot of commotion in the city today.

After four days, there were a thousand Han prisoners who were killed by the Turks in the city of Mayi. Seeing that the Mayi defenders were still in order, Jie Li Khan couldn't help but wonder, so he ordered people to lift Gao Manye to the front of the formation and shouted: "General Gao, do you really think that I dare not cut off your brother's head?"

Gao Manye looked at his brother standing on the top of the city and shouted: "Brother, help me."

Gao Manzheng was unmoved and shouted to his brother: "Manye, don't blame me for being ruthless, don't forget that we are unwilling to follow Yuan Junzhang as barbarians, so we went to the Tang Dynasty to join the city. I hope you can understand that for the righteousness in my brother's heart, how can we ignore it for the sake of the silence of life."

Gao Manye raised his head and smiled bitterly, and said in a decisive tone: "If my brother can protect the city alive, please take good care of my wife and children."

As he said that, he suddenly hit the executioner holding the knife behind him. The executioner couldn't hold the knife in time, and the blade passed through his chest, leaving no handle.

Gao Manye suddenly died, and Jie Li Khan lost a seemingly useful bargaining chip. He couldn't help but slapped the executioner in the face in anger. Then he raised the whip and pointed at Gao Manzheng from a distance. He opened his mouth and opened it again and again. After a long time, he didn't say a word. He had to take back the long whip and said angrily: "Forget it, stop the troops."

Gao Manzheng sat down on the top of the city in depressedly, and Li Yao stepped forward to comfort him, "I will die heroically, because a hero, Li, decided to submit to the court for this matter to the court to express his righteousness. I hope General Gao will be mourning and following the changes."

Gao Manzheng was in tears, waved his hand, and cried, "Let me stay alone for a while, I want to be quiet."

Li Yao sighed and stopped talking.

Before we knew it, the Shuozhou Plain had been calm for three days.

Since Gao Manyes, Jie Li Khan stopped killing prisoners. It started to snow again that day. Jie Li Khan was bored and had to stay in the big tent, holding the beautiful Princess Yicheng in the daytime.

As soon as Dongxue stopped, the voice of the guard came from outside the tent: "Khan, Zhao Deyan from Tutun asked for a visit."

Jie Li Khan hurriedly said, "I have not yet gotten up, let him wait for a while."

After being dressed neatly, Jie Li Khan summoned Zhao Deyan into the tent and asked in a stern voice: "I don't know what Deyan has done to meet my khan."

Zhao Deyan said: "Khan, according to the report from the patrol of our headquarters, the water of the Hui River has gradually become dry in recent days, and now it is almost out of the current, and it is almost impossible to satisfy the drinking of the army."

"oh"

Jie Li Khan was surprised and frowned, and said strangely: "Why did the river water start to dry up so early?"

Three years ago, Yuan Junzhang led his people to rely on the Turkic Republic, and Shuozhou once became the granary and pasture of the Turkic Khanate. Therefore, Jie Li Khan still had a certain understanding of several local rivers.

Zhao Deyan said: "Hot and cold are impermanent, and the world is impermanent. This year's climate is different from previous years. The dry and rising river water is naturally unpredictable, for this."

Zhao Deyan hesitated for a moment before continuing: "I have a word, but I don't know if it should be said or not."

Jie Li Khan nodded: "It's okay to just say virtue."

Zhao Deyan glanced at Princess Yicheng who was sitting upright, and secretly gritted her teeth. Suddenly, she knelt on both knees and kowtowed to Jie Li Khan: "My minister Zhao Deyan, I beg Khan to return to the north of Mo"
