The Great Grandson of the Tang Dynasty: The beginning of the slaughter of General Tiance's mans

Jieli Khan led an army of 300,000 to attack this time, with the purpose of plundering the wealth of the Central Plains. At the same time, he also wanted to demonstrate his force, establish the status of the Turks, and frighten the Tang Dynasty.

Chang'an City was the capital of the Tang Dynasty, the most prosperous and wealthy place in the world, and the wealth there made him extremely coveted.

After hearing Jieli Khan's request, all civil servants and generals, including Li Shimin, changed their expressions drastically and became furious.

Want all the wealth of Chang'an City, the princess's marriage, and the title of vassal of the Tang Dynasty? !

This is simply to throw their Tang Dynasty’s face to the ground and grind it into the dust with their feet!

"Your Highness, you must not agree to these requests, otherwise where is the face of the Tang Dynasty! Where is the majesty of being a heavenly country!"

Fang Xuanling said excitedly with a look of sadness on her face.

As a civil servant, his character does not allow him to agree to such humiliating conditions!

Cheng Yaojin also had a fierce look on his face and said: "His grandma, Your Highness, let's just fight with these Turkic dogs! It doesn't matter if we have more troops, at worst we will lose everything!"

As soon as Cheng Yaojin opened his mouth, several military generals immediately followed him, obviously unable to bear the humiliation of Jieli Khan.

But Li Shimin just clenched his fists, then looked up at the Turkic army opposite, and said loudly: "This matter is of great importance. Can Jieli Khan give me some time to think about it?"

Hearing Li Shimin's words, Jieli Khan laughed and agreed readily: "Okay! I will give you one day to think about it. If I don't receive a satisfactory answer tomorrow, I will let the army conquer the entire Chang'an." City! Hahaha——"

After saying that, Jieli Khan returned to the military formation with a smile.

The Turkic army numbered 300,000, and now it has surrounded the entire city of Chang'an, and the defenders of Chang'an City are only a few. Even if he delays for a few days, it will be no problem. He is not afraid of Li Shimin's conspiracy at all, because this is a complete crushing of strength. pressure.

On the city wall, Li Shimin looked at Jieli Khan's back, with a deep murderous intent flashing in his eyes.

……

The Turkic army besieged the city, bringing great panic to the people in Chang'an City.

Everyone knows the ferocity and cruelty of the Turks. Now Chang'an City is empty of troops, but the enemy army has a total of 300,000. If Chang'an City is breached, then the city will definitely be filled with blood. How can the people not panic?

The ones who were even more panicked were actually the princes and nobles in the city. If it weren't for the fact that the Turkic army was besieging the city and there was no way to escape, I'm afraid they would have escaped long ago.

In addition, the three conditions put forward by Jieli Khan quickly spread in the city.

This news was like a stone dropped into a calm lake, causing an uproar in Chang'an City.

"The Turks are barbarians and aliens. How can we, the Tang Dynasty, surrender to the Turks?"

"Humiliation! This is really humiliation! I would rather fight to the death with the Turks than suffer such humiliation!"

"Fight to the bitter end! Never give in!"

……

It is undeniable that the people of the Tang Dynasty had their own arrogance. The Turks were so aggressive and even humiliating, which made countless people feel extremely angry. They organized teams spontaneously and were willing to support the city defense.

Even those aristocratic families who were afraid of death became uneasy after learning that the Turks wanted all the wealth in Chang'an City. They all went to Tiance's Mansion to beg Li Shimin and asked to defend Chang'an City until reinforcements arrived. They were even willing to contribute. Private soldiers from their respective houses participated in the city defense.

How could these nobles be so proactive in normal times, but no one dared to hide anymore at this time, after all, the Turks were waiting eagerly outside the city.

The reaction and pressure from the people and nobles in the city all fell on Li Shimin.

……

Tiance Mansion.

Although the night was already deep, the lights in Tiance Mansion were still brightly lit. Li Shimin was pacing back and forth in the study, and Changsun Wuji, Du Ruhui and other counselors were also here.

They have been discussing for a long time how to deal with Jieli Khan and the hundreds of thousands of troops outside, but there has been no result until now.

Their opinions differ from each other, so no one can convince the other.

"Your Highness, don't hesitate any longer. We should immediately organize the private soldiers and warriors in the city to strengthen the city's defenses, and then continue to fight with Jieli Khan."

"As long as we can hold on for a month, the troops guarding the four sides will be able to rush to Chang'an City to support us. Then why fear the 300,000 Turkic army?"

Fang Xuanling said with excitement that the reaction of the common people and nobles in Chang'an City today has strengthened his idea of ​​​​fighting the Turks to the end.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, Changsun Wuji said solemnly: "You underestimate the strength of the Turks too much, and you also overestimate our current situation."

"There are too few defenders in the city. Even if we add the private soldiers from each mansion and the civilian bravery composed of young and strong people, it will not help. But the Turkic army opposite is all elite! Just these people can't resist it?"

"If the city is destroyed once, then Chang'an City will be devastated and blood will flow into rivers!"

"Choosing resistance is a gamble! Can you afford the safety of millions of people in Chang'an City!"

Changsun Wuji's tone was so stern that Fang Xuanling was speechless for a moment.

Because Changsun Wuji was right. If they chose to resist, they would definitely offend the Turkic army. How could the Turks let the people in the city go with their brutality?

When Chang'an City is massacred, who can bear this responsibility?

"Then are we going to be humiliated by the Turks like this?"

Du Ruhui's expression was incomprehensible, his eyes were full of humiliation, and it was difficult to accept such humiliation.

Changsun Wuji did not speak, but turned his attention to Li Shimin.

The final result depends on Li Shimin's decision.

Facing the gazes of the three people, Li Shimin was silent for a long time, and then he let out a long sigh and said: "I cannot gamble with Chang'an City, not to mention that my father is also in the city..."

If Chang'an City is captured in his hands, then he will definitely miss the throne, and whether he can save his life is a question.

As soon as these words came out, the faces of Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling suddenly turned gray, and they looked at Li Shimin with disappointment.

Li Shimin's words have already marked his attitude.

He chose to agree to Jieli Khan's conditions.

The two of them were disappointed that the King of Qin, who had always been strong and decisive, and the lord they followed, would now choose to compromise and agree to such humiliating conditions.

Feeling the gazes of Fang Xuanling and Fang Xuanling, Li Shimin also felt that his face was hot, and he felt ashamed in his heart, so he took a deep breath and said firmly: "I swear that the humiliation of the Tang Dynasty that Jieli Khan gave me today will not be the same in the future." I will get it back a hundred times!"

Li Shimin had already said so, and Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui couldn't say anything more. They just looked at each other and sighed in their hearts.

"Yes, Your Highness."...
