Chapter 1198: The Turkic envoy called the door in front of the palace, and Muchuan came to the scene to command the enemy.
"Yes, sir!"
Xue Dingshan heard this and immediately responded.
"Walk!"
After Muchuan finished speaking, he led the people and continued walking outside the city.
"General, do you think we can stop those Turkic musketeers?"
The deputy general next to him asked worriedly.
"It will definitely be able to block it. Those Turks don't know how to use our muskets at all. Our Tang army has been using muskets for many years. How can they compare?"
Muchuan said coldly.
"My lord is right, how can they compare to our warriors of the Tang Dynasty.
Those Turks, apart from being fast, are vulnerable to anything else!"
The deputy general smiled and nodded.
"Let's go on patrol!"
Muchuan said to his lieutenant.
On the other side of Prince Qing's Mansion, the guards were closely watching the passing teams, waiting for the Turks.
While everyone was waiting boredly, suddenly a guard from the Prince's Palace saw a group of Turkic-looking caravans coming from a distance and slowly walking towards the Prince Qing's Palace.
"Go and tell your lord, those Turks are coming, hurry!"
A soldier immediately shouted,
As soon as the soldier finished speaking, a group of soldiers rushed to the side door of the mansion.
At this time, at the side door of Prince Qing's Mansion, a soldier was closing the door bolt, and the Turks came directly nearby.
"Guards of the Prince's Palace, please inform us that we are a Turkic envoy, and we have come to bring a Turkic gift to Prince Qing. Please open the door!"
At this time, a man wearing Turkic clothes came to the side door on horseback and said.
The soldier heard it and stood there looking at him without saying a word.
He knew that these Turks were hidden musketeers, and they were very powerful ones, so he would never open the door rashly.
"We were ordered to send gifts!"
At this time, the Turks at the door shouted angrily.
"Hmph, you think we are fools. You are obviously Turkic spies, but you still want to lie to me and seek death!"
The soldier said disdainfully.
"What spies? We just want to see the prince. If you stop us, don't blame us for being rude!"
At this time, the Turkic general on horseback also roared,
In the distance, several Turkic lieutenants on horseback were also sitting on their horses and observing.
"What is going on? Has it been discovered?"
A general saw the Turks under his command shouting outside,
"Could it be that we didn't have a good conversation with Li Tai a few days ago, and now we're on guard?"
Another general thought for a while and said.
"Impossible, how could they find out? We are so well disguised, it doesn't look like we have been discovered!"
Another general retorted.
"Forget it, let's take a look first. We have been careful these days so as not to be discovered. Just give it a try as they say!"
In the end, the general decided to trust his subordinates, so he asked the Turks to continue shouting outside.
Soon, the Turks outside shouted again: "Open the door! Let us go!"
The soldiers heard this, looked at each other, then nodded, and one of them ran in.
…
In Prince Qing's palace, Muchuan had already entered the palace with a gun.
He saw with his own eyes that these members of the Turkic mission with guns came to Prince Qing's Mansion, and he wanted to personally command the battle.
"Sir, you came just in time. The Turks have already arrived and are letting us open the door!"
The guarding soldiers saw Muchuan ascending the tower at the entrance of the Prince's Mansion, walked over and whispered to him.
"I see!"
Muchuan nodded slightly, and at this moment Fan Lihua walked over wearing a military uniform.
"See Master Mu," Fan Lihua said when she saw Muchuan and raised her hands to him.
"General Fan, how are the preparations for the ambush going?"
Muchuan also nodded towards her.
"Sir, everything is ready. The Turks under the city wall just sent a fake envoy to ask for permission. Should we let him go or not?"
Fan Lihua said.
"Let them in and see what they want to do! Haha, aren't we preparing all this time just to catch turtles in our dreams?"
Muchuan nodded and said.
He also wanted to know what level these Turks were.
"OK!"
Fan Lihua heard about it and went to make arrangements.
And Muchuan also carefully examined these Turkic matchlock guns.
Although muskets were not yet popular in this era, their gunpowder had already appeared.
Many large-scale wars basically use gunpowder.
And those artillery pieces were simply not something that the Turks could produce.
"Sir, these muskets are so powerful, can we defend them?"
The generals guarding the city asked worriedly after seeing the effect of Muchuan's soldiers shooting with muskets.
"It's okay, our Tang Dynasty's muskets are also very powerful, and their matchlock guns are not as powerful as our rifles, so you don't have to worry too much."
Muchuan saw the generals guarding the city like this and immediately comforted them.
Under the city tower, the Turkic envoys were still shouting: "Sir! Open the door quickly, we are really the Turkic envoys!"
"Hahaha, are you really the envoys of the Turks?"
Muchuan came down with the armed soldiers at this time.
"Yes, sir, we are really Turks. We formed an alliance with your dynasty before, but now we are here to express our sincerity.
Our Turkic Khan specially asked us to send congratulatory gifts, please open the door!"
When the messenger saw Muchuan and the others coming, he immediately said excitedly.
"Oh, is it so?
In this case, I will open the city gate and you can come in! We will accept this gift!"
When Muchuan heard what he said, he nodded, and then said to the soldiers beside him.
Come, open the city gate and the drawbridge!"
Muchuan said to the soldiers below.
"Boom!"
After the soldier opened the city gate, groups of soldiers began to form formations.
"Haha, great, they are finally here!"
Muchuan saw it and thought very excitedly.
It was also the first time for him to encounter such a war, and he was very excited.
"Okay, my lord!"
The Turkic envoy was very happy when he heard this. Then he signaled to a person next to him, and the person immediately came out with a box of gold.
That box is all gold,
"This is a congratulatory gift from our Turkic Empire to His Highness Prince Qing of the Tang Dynasty. We wish His Highness a thousand years of life!"
The messenger looked at Muchuan and said.
"You know how to choose gifts!"
Muchuan said with a smile, and then asked the soldiers to open the city gate. When the envoy saw it, his face changed, and then he recovered immediately.
Then he said to the Turks beside him: "Hurry up and carry the gifts in!"
Then the soldiers carried the boxes and walked into the castle, with Muchuan following behind.
