Chapter 687 A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity
The room was silent for a long time, and Sultan Ashin couldn't help but ask.
"What are you thinking about?"
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime..."
Zhuge Liang raised his hand to stop it.
"Come here, I'll send two distinguished guests down to rest."
Asuna Suni was unwilling to accept it, but she had no choice but to be taken away by the guards.
After the two left, Zhuge Liang and Zhu Di looked at each other and laughed.
"Turley cannot die!"
The two of them said in unison.
According to Asanosuni, Tuli was the spokesperson of the Yuan Dynasty within the Turks. If Tuli died, Turi could certainly get rid of the control of the Yuan Dynasty, but what would it be beneficial to Daxia?
When Tuli died, Dayuan would not give up. In order to escape the blame and to eliminate dissidents, the Turkish Khan would mostly attack Daxia under the banner of avenging Tuli.
At that time, all the trades between trade and money were announced!
And if Shili is alive.
This time, Dayuan would definitely increase his strength to support Turi in order to control the Turks.
Only when the Turks are internally flirted with each other, the Turks need Daxia and can they sincerely do business with Daxia.
Both Zhuge Liang and Zhu Di were smart people and understood the importance of keeping chaos inside the foreign enemy.
"However, with this Turkic marching route, it's much easier to fight."
Zhuge Liang smiled while taking the map.
"That's true." Zhu Di praised.
Three days passed in a flash, and Asanosuni and Guli Peiluo were placed under house arrest by Daxia.
Turi, the commander of the Turkic army, did not know that his marching route, troops, and even the information about the tribal leaders who followed him had been betrayed by the two to Daxia.
As the morning sun rose, the 200,000 Turkic army finally arrived at the border and looked at Yicheng.
The governor of Yicheng was named Tan Yi. After receiving the report from his subordinates, he hurried to the top of the city.
After a glance, I felt my heart scared out of my chest.
"Why, why did the Turks come so many people? Are you going to attack my Great Sui?"
Tan Yi murmured.
Turkic cavalry all over the mountains surrounded Yicheng, making Yicheng like an isolated island.
"General, should we... let's open the city gate?"
Some soldiers asked carefully.
Tan Yi was about to say that he couldn't open, but looked at the sea of people composed of Turkic cavalry below. He swallowed and nodded stiffly.
"open……"
But what Tan Yi didn't expect was.
The city gate just opened, and the Turkic army, which used to only ask for money and food, would not enter the city, rushed into the city like crazy.
The Sui army still wanted to close the door, but how could it be closed?
The huge city squeezed into tens of thousands of Turks, and the two thousand Sui troops stationed there were slaughtered in just half an hour.
"Brother Tuli, why do we want to massacre the city?"
Next to Tuli, a leader of the Tatar tribe who was loyal to him asked.
The other leaders were also puzzled.
In their opinion, these Sui people were not as brave as Yang. They would offer great gifts every time they came over. Keeping them was much more useful than killing them all.
Tuli sneered.
"We can't hide it from the Sui people by leading so many warriors across the border.
No matter how timid the generals in this city are, they must pass the news back. Daxia is not the Great Sui Dynasty, but a warrior country comparable to the Tang Dynasty. If the Huns and Jurchens were destroyed, we can only attack in the sneak attack
Without paying much, you plunder enough wealth."
"I understand, Brother Tuli is wise!"
The leaders said one after another.
Cross Yicheng and heading south, Tuli quickly arrived at Pingtu City.
He thought that the Sui generals of this city would open the city to welcome him, so that they could destroy Pingtu without any effort. But to his surprise, the defenders on the city dressed in a crooked manner, and there were still a few more.
He was trembling, but he was like facing a great enemy, without the slightest intention of opening a city.
Could it be that the scout of Tu Yi City was seen by Pingtu?
Tuli was puzzled and recruited a tribal leader.
"Go, go and call the door!"
"yes!"
The leader of the tribe approached the city gate, put his hands on his hips, and picked up the whip and shouted.
At this time, a row of archers appeared between the city walls, hundreds of arrows shot angrily, and in the blink of an eye, the leader of the tribe became a hedgehog.
Tuli was shocked.
Whoosh swish swish swish...
The soldiers who had just shot arrows in the city did not pause, pulled their bows and led the arrows, and another wave of arrow feathers shot towards the Turkic cavalry within the range.
Tuli thought that Pingtu would open the city gate, and the army was only more than twenty steps away from the city wall at the front, so it was so convenient to capture the city and massacre. Seeing this, he quickly ordered the army to retreat.
After a commotion, the Turks threw down dozens of cavalry corpses and then retreated from their range.
"Damn it! The sinister and cunning Great Sui people!"
Tuli cursed angrily.
The Turkic side was furious, but the Daxia defenders on the city were very happy.
"Don't expose our identities."
Zhuge Liang shouted, and the soldiers kept their smiles and continued to stand like they were facing a great enemy.
"Sir, why do we pretend to be the guards of the Great Sui army?"
Zhu Di asked in confusion.
Zhuge Liang stood inside the city wall and laughed and said, "Prince, if what I expected is right, Yicheng may have been slaughtered."
"Um?!"
Zhu Di was shocked and looked at Zhuge Liang in surprise.
"How can you know about this?... Could it be that you really have unpredictable calculations?"
"No..."
Zhuge Liang explained with a smile.
"Prince, my Daxia and the Dasui have a good relationship. If the Turks want to enter my Daxia to rob, they must avoid the news of the border town of the Sui Dynasty. If I were the Turkic marshal, I would either massacre the city or encircle the troops."
"With the cruel Turkic nature, which one do you think they would choose?"
Zhu Di suddenly realized in his heart and said sincerely.
"Sir, I admire you for your far-sightedness."
Zhu Di continued: "If I were cowardly and would open the door actively, I would also massacre the city instead of dividing the troops."
"So, the sir asked the soldiers guarding the city to remove the king's flag, and they also asked them to wear clothes like the Great Sui garrison. When they were shooting arrows, they only asked hundreds of crossbowmen to step forward, in order to make the Turks miscalculate the defenders.
Strength, while choosing to divide the troops to surround them, there is no large amount of troops left behind."
"Yes, what the prince said is not bad at all."
Zhuge Liang responded with a smile.
Below, Tuli ordered people to threaten and clamor several times.
Every time he sent someone to come forward, a wave of arrow feathers fell on the city, causing people to go but never return.
After several times, even ordinary Turkic knights were unwilling to step forward.
"Bastard, the Great Sui people are so cunning!"
A tribal leader finished scolding and asked Tuli for his orders.
"Sir, let me lead the warriors to siege the city!"
Tuli was also angry in his heart, his eyes flashing constantly.
After a long time, he raised his hand to stop him.
“We don’t have time to waste.”
"Ayimu."
Ask the leader to hear this, he immediately clasped his fists.
"I'm here!"
"You bring your troops with you five thousand... No, I will give you ten thousand warriors! You surround Pingtu City, don't let anyone go, and slaughter the place when we come back!"
