Chapter 271 Unable to extricate themselves
My destiny is my destiny Chapter 271: It’s noon and the sun is shining brightly.
Li Yao raised his eyes to Bulishi's camp for a long time, and suddenly rubbed his slightly sore eyes and said to everyone standing beside him: "The Turks seem to be very leisurely and relaxed. Don't you think of ways to find something for them?"
A big man with a thick beard responded: "Fu Li sent someone to send a letter the day before yesterday, saying that the Turks are now making peace with the court, and that the humble officials will preside over the blockade of the pass. The Turks just waited far away and never acted to interfere. Therefore, we have to believe in this."
When Li Yao saw this person, he remembered that the other party was named Fu Fenghai, who was the lieutenant in charge of Honggu Pass’s defense. He couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows: “So may I ask, have you ever received a peace talks from the court?”
Fu Fenghai shook his head and said, "No."
When Li Yao heard this, he suddenly stretched his hand toward him: "Xuanmiao, bring my bow."
“Yes, Master.”
Zhang Xuanmiao took off a bow from her body in response and handed it to Li Yao along with a pot of swallow feather arrows.
This bow was given by Li Yuan. It was made by Li Yao from the top mulberry wood. The bow has a strength of more than five stones, which is almost equivalent to a "waist-opening crossbow". In order to maintain the elasticity of the bow body, the bow string usually loosens one end. Because the bow body is extremely hard, Li Yao can only use it himself to voluntarily. When she saw her bend the bow body and then install the tendon string to the tip of the bow. The whole process was easy and effortless.
Fu Fenghai saw Li Yao pulling his bow and placing an arrow, aiming at the Turkic camp outside the pass, and couldn't help but feel nervous and asked, "What is your lord?"
"Buzz!"
Li Yao answered him with a bowstring.
The arrow was like lightning, and a loud scream came from outside the pass.
Before others could react, another bowstring sounded, and Li Yao had already shot a second arrow and accurately hit a Turkic man walking his horse slowly.
Seeing that Li Yao had no words and suddenly started killing, Qi Daluo, Liang Yuandu and other Yanzhizhou officials were all shocked and stepped forward to try to dissuade them. However, Qi Daishuang immediately blocked them with his body and shook his head to signal not to disturb Princess Mingzhao's shooting arrows.
Li Yao drew his bows from left to right, and the arrows were like beads, until all the feather arrows in the quiver pot shot out before he stopped.
In just a moment, the unprepared Turkic people were killed and injured by 20 or 30 people, and all fell three hundred steps away from the wall. Their long range and lasting strength made all the witnesses present, including Lan Shaoying and An Hongyu, who often practiced arrows with Li Yao, were stunned.
However, they quickly woke up from their shock.
Because at this time the north side of the pass was already filled with hooves and dust.
The Turks gathered an army urgently, and in an instant, they rushed to the city.
The leader was about forty years old, wearing a golden helmet and silver scale armor, riding a "Helan Pig" with a particularly strong muscles and bones. He followed him closely with a tall toothed flag, looking majestic and arrogant.
Li Yao had met this person on the battlefield and almost killed each other. Then he heard her laugh in Turkic words: "Ashin Fuli, it's been a long time since I saw you. Do you know who I am?"
Bulishi didn't know, but he could assure Changshengtian that he would never forget the voice of this woman in his life.
Bulishi's chest heaved violently a few times, suddenly raised a long whip in his hand, pointed to the pass tower from a distance, and shouted loudly: "Yes! I have always wanted to know who you are!"
Li Yao jumped gently and stood firmly on the wall. She saw her hand holding the sword on her waist, her body straightened up, a face made of pearls and jade, all of which were exquisite in facial features. A breath of breath sounded in her ears, and even he couldn't help but praise her secretly: "What a beautiful person!"
Li Yao waved to her side and signaled her. Zhang Xuanmiao immediately handed her a croaker, and then she put it on her head heroically, with a crisp and loud voice: "Since Lord Bu Lishe is so concerned about me, then you have to listen, I am Li Mingzhen, Princess Mingzhao of the Tang Dynasty!"
When Bu Lishi heard this title, he immediately restrained the cute thoughts in his mind.
As a person with a strong status in the Turkic Khanate, he was not a ignorant person.
The Turkic spies hiding in Chang'an to collect intelligence had already investigated Princess Mingzhao several times.
They all said that Li Mingzhen is talented and has amazing martial arts skills. He is able to write poems and compose music, and is well-versed in the past and the present. He is knowledgeable about military affairs and politics. He is a talented woman in the world.
However, these smart spies completely missed the most important and most critical information.
That is the adopted daughter of Emperor Tang Li Yuan, who actually leads troops to fight!
In view of this, Bu Lishe couldn't help but be angry and afraid. He suddenly thought of Li Yao's amazing continuous shooting skills just now. He quickly tweaked his horse's heads and retreated five hundred steps away surrounded by hundreds of guards. Then he opened his voice and said, "Although I don't understand why a noble princess doesn't stay in Tangdu and enjoy the prosperous life, but comes to this desolate and barren place, since the princess dares to hurt my people, I must not know the recent developments between the two countries, right?"
Li Yaoang raised his chest and said coldly: "So what if you don't know? No matter what you say, I won't believe the words of a wild wolf."
In fact, Li Yao knew that the peace talks between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks were all due to the Qin King Li Shimin.
Not long after Chai Shao defeated Yugu, the army led by Li Shimin, Li Yuanji and Jie Li Khan met unexpectedly in Binzhou.
The autumn rain continued at that time, which seriously affected the transportation of food and grass by the Tang army and the status of the soldiers.
Jie Li Khan suddenly led more than 10,000 elite Khanate forces to challenge the Tang army. Li Yuanji thought that it should not be easily taken, but Li Shimin was determined to fight, so he used his amazing courage and IQ to take advantage of Jie Li's suspicious nature in front of the battlefield, as well as the long-standing conflict between the other party and his nephew Tuli, and made Tuli refuse to fight the Tang army. Jie Li lost the help of his deputy and was not sure of winning, so he sent an envoy to ask for peace.
Li Yao's attitude is very unfriendly, and the focus of Kebulishi does not seem to be this. Although Li Yao was wearing armor, his eyes were still constantly looking at the beautiful figure on the wall, and smiled and said, "Wolf? In the minds of us Turks, wolf is the guardian god and our ancestors. Only excellent children on the grassland can be called wolf, so I should thank the princess for her praise, in addition."
