Niu Jinda's threat was very strong. The Western Turks were not without warriors. Seeing Niu Jinda's action, many people wanted to fight him, but the Right Wise King stopped them with his eyes. None of you have been to the front line. General Kang Ying described it very clearly. Even though the Tang Dynasty only sent 2,000 people, if these 2,000 people were to be put into combat, the capital of the Western Turks might not be able to be defended.
"Let's discuss this matter carefully. It's useless for me to agree to it. We need our Khan to agree first. Please give me some time."
The Right Wise King finally chose to drag it out.
But what he said was true. This matter was not a trivial matter. Although he was also a high-ranking military officer of the Western Turks, the Khan of the Western Turks had already issued orders regarding matters concerning the Tang Dynasty. Unless he personally approved it, what others said would not count.
"If that's the case, then this is the end of my friendly visit to Western Turkestan. Let's go directly to the next country."
According to Niu Jinda, the other party has already surrendered, so we just need to give them some face and let it go. It won't be too late to discuss this matter when we meet the Khan of Western Turkic Khan next time. However, he didn't expect Li You's evil spirit to come out.
This guy didn't have a good impression of the Western Turks. When Li Shimin signed the Treaty of Surrender, this guy was still in his infancy. However, he knew from a young age that there were no good people among the Turks. If Li Shimin had not signed the Treaty of Surrender, the Turks would probably have stormed into the imperial city.
Niu Jinda was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but after hearing Li You's words, he immediately prepared to do so. After all, on the surface, Li You was the commander of their team.
"Your Highness is right. We only visit friendly countries. Since Western Turkestan treats us this way, it means our affairs are not important. So we should go to the next country."
After hearing what Niu Jinda said, the Right Wise King became very nervous. Some local people, including him, also felt that the people from the Tang Dynasty were too efficient. Are you going to leave just because of one sentence?
If it were a very serious political issue, it would be normal for you to react like this, but it is obvious that this matter is not that serious.
"Your Highness the Prince of Qi, General Niu..."
The Right Wise King of Western Turkic Khaganate didn't know what to do for a moment. If he agreed to these people's request, he really didn't know how to explain to the Khan of Western Turkic Khaganate. But if he didn't agree, and these people really left, then Western Turkic Khaganate would be an unfriendly country. Who knows what the Tang Dynasty would do next?
"The Khan has arrived."
Just when they didn't know what to do, the sound of horse hooves was heard in the city. It turned out that everything here was being watched. When they heard that they were about to leave, the Khan of Western Turkestan had already sent people over, although he was still two streets away.
"Your Highness, our Khan is here. Please wait a moment. He will surely give you an answer."
The Right Wise King breathed a sigh of relief. If he were alone here, he really didn't know how to respond to this matter. But now the Khan of Western Turkestan had arrived, and the Khan could make the decision on anything.
Niu Jinda and Li You exchanged glances and decided to wait a little longer. After all, he was the Khan of Western Turkestan and the absolute king of this land.
Seeing that the two men were not planning to leave, the Right Wise King felt relieved. If he let them go at the city gate, it would definitely be his fault. When the Khan investigated him, he would definitely have a hard time.
To be honest, he had also realized that Li You was not here for a friendly visit at all, but was purely looking for trouble. He did not give them any time to respond. After making a request, the people on your side must do it. If you don't, he will immediately turn against you.
The Western Turks had lived deep in the northwest for too long and had long lost their original customs. When the Western Turkic Khan came out, he had fewer followers than the Right Wise King.
Of course, this is also a very normal thing. After all, the Right Wise King went out to meet the envoys of the Tang Dynasty and represented the entire country. This is the home of the Khan of Western Turkic Khaganate. There is no need for him to bring so many people with him at home, and most of them came out on horseback.
When facing other people, Li You can maintain an arrogant attitude, but when he meets the Khan of Western Turkestan, this guy has to at least bow.
Pingli…
Seeing Li You bending down, everyone around was very angry. Even if you are the prince of the Tang Dynasty, you are just a cover. How could you wait for our Khan to salute first? And you just gave a flat salute.
Niu Jinda watched this scene from the side without any waves in his heart. In fact, this was already a great courtesy. If Li You continued to make trouble, your king might kneel down to greet him.
When leaving Gaochang Kingdom, Li You had already made a rule for himself that except for the other party's monarch, everyone else must kneel down to him. If he met the other party's monarch, at most he would greet him with a peaceful greeting.
The Western Turkic Khan's mouth twitched twice. He was very dissatisfied with the boy in front of him. However, the situation is stronger than the person. The Tang army is already outside the border. You all know your personal strength. If you make the person in front of you unhappy, war may break out in an instant. Haven't you seen the result of Xueyantuo?
After the Xueyantuo Kingdom was destroyed, their first stop was the Western Turks. So the Khan of the Western Turks also conducted a battlefield simulation. They simulated for several days and finally came to a conclusion that if the Tang army used the same troops to attack them, the result would be more than 80% likely to be the same as the Xueyantuo, and they would not be able to stop the attack of the Tang army.
Although the main force of the Tang army has not arrived yet, it is only a matter of time. According to the reports from their spies in Xueyantuo, the local area has basically been reorganized, and the army has already begun recovery training. There are no other enemies around. If it is not for dealing with the countries in the Western Regions, why should recovery training be carried out?
Many people came from the Goguryeo battlefield. If these people returned to Goguryeo, it would be understandable. But it was obvious that these people were not planning to go back, so where would their next target be?
