"Li Jing, come out for me. If you have the will, don't hide from me. Let's explain the matter clearly!" Outside the handsome tent, Tang Jian jumped to the handsome tent without any grace and cursed. The guards in front lined up a wall to try hard not to let him break in. The soldiers who came and went all avoided Tang Jian, for fear of being caught and scolded by the angry Duke of Ju.

Li Jing was in the commander's tent. Not only was he there, but Li Ji was there too. However, both of them thought they had not heard it and did not dare to come out to see Tang Jian. After all, they were in the wrong, and Tang Jian would never listen to their explanations, so it would be better to hide and wait until Tang Jian scolded him and would naturally go back.

Li Xiu stood not far away with a teapot and smiled. When he heard Tang Jian scolding to the point of pleasure, he even wanted to shout. He had a fight with Li Jing about Tang Jian's affairs before, but he was thrown out of the big tent. Now Tang Jian is back and pointed at Li Jing's big tent and scolded him. However, the other party dared not stand up. It was so happy.

Tang Jian is worthy of being a scholar. He stood outside the tent and cursed for a long time but did not take the same remark. He not only scolded Li Jing, but also cursed Li Ji, because he already knew that Li Ji was the first to propose to attack the Turks regardless of his life and death. It can be said that Li Ji was the real initiator, so most of his scolding was for Li Ji.

However, cursing people is also a physical job, especially the throat hurts. In the end, Tang Jian finally couldn't curse anymore. Li Xiu then smiled and handed the tea on him and said, "Donald Ju takes a break first, take a sip of tea to moisten his throat!"

Tang Jian also felt that his throat was almost smoking. He took the teapot and drank it in one breath. Then he let out a long sigh and said to Li Xiu: "Son-in-law, thank you for being righteous for me before, and later asked Su Dingfang to protect my safety, otherwise my bones might have been cold!"

"You are polite to Ju. In fact, many people in the army care about your safety, such as Zhang Gongjin and Qin Qiong and other generals. Unfortunately, they have no right to make decisions and can only obey orders in the end!" Li Xiu smiled again at this time. Tang Jian just started to curse and didn't play with it. Although he mainly scolded Li Jing and Li Ji, he also scolded other generals, so Li Xiu reminded him so that he would not hurt others by accident.

"There are many good people in this world, but some people are ulterior motives and ignore other people's lives for their own achievements. After I go back, I will have to study in front of His Majesty!" Tang Jian said with hatred again at this time.

Originally, Tang Jian escaped from death this time, which was considered a great contribution to the Tang Dynasty. If it were other ministers, he would probably make mistakes and not say anything to him. He might even publicize to the outside world that he had known Li Jing's plan for a long time, but for the sake of the Tang Dynasty, he would rather take this risk to confuse Jie Li. In this way, he would have made even greater contributions in the battle to destroy the Turks.

However, Tang Jian is Tang Jian after all. With his relationship with Li Shimin and his current status, he is not short of the credit this time. Moreover, his personality is a bit similar to Li Xiu. In his opinion, fame and fortune are not as important as his own life, so he is so angry.

Just as Li Xiu was talking to Tang Jian, he suddenly heard a rapid sound of horse hooves from afar. Then Su Dingfang led a cavalry to come here. When he saw Li Xiu outside the tent, Su Dingfang hurriedly jumped off and saluted, "I will meet the prince consort, Duke Ju!"

"General Su is polite. Thank you for saving me in the chaos before!" When Tang Jian saw Su Dingfang, the expression on his face finally eased a little. If Su Dingfang had not arrived in time, he might have died in the chaos.

"You are polite to Ju. This is the duty of the last general, and it is nothing!" Su Dingfang said politely at this time, but he actually didn't want to have too much contact with Tang Jian. After all, everyone knows now that Tang Jian pointed at Li Jing's nose and scolded. If he got too close to Tang Jian, even if Li Jing didn't mind, others would probably gossip.

"By the way, Dingfang, have you been chasing Jie Li and others' whereabouts? How about it? Is there any result?" Li Xiu asked anxiously at this time. Tang Jian also showed a concern when he heard this. After all, he was scolding, but he really hoped that he could catch Jie Li earlier, so that he could completely solve the border problems in the north.

Hearing Li Xiu's question, Su Dingfang sighed, then shook his head helplessly and said, "Your Majesty, we chased for hundreds of miles southwest. On the way, we did find some traces of someone running away, but there were masters in the other party who knew how to eliminate the traces, so we chased for a long time, but in the end we still found that the clues had been cut off!"

"What a pity, it's a waste!" Tang Jian couldn't help but slapped his thigh and said with great distress. This time, the Tang Dynasty used the whole country to attack the Turks, consumed countless materials and manpower and lost a lot of troops, but it still failed to completely eliminate Jie Li, which was really unacceptable.

"Jie Li is not necessarily able to escape. After all, in addition to our three armies, Your Majesty has also arranged two other armies to prevent Jie Li from escaping. Moreover, the Turks were defeated so thoroughly this time. I believe that few people dared to take Jie Li in. So the next thing depends on our luck!" Li Xiu pondered for a moment and spoke.

Of course, the reason why Li Xiu dared to say this is because he knew that Jie Li was indeed captured by the Tang army in history, but he was not very clear about how he caught it. Moreover, history has been changed too much by him. Not to mention anything else, the Tang army attacked the Turks nearly half a year earlier, so he was not sure whether Jie Li would be captured like in history?

At the same time, in the west of the Tang army camp, a remaining Turkic squad was marching rapidly. There was a middle-aged man with a strong face and a stout figure in the team. It was Jie Li who escaped from the pursuit of the Tang army.

Last night, the Turkic camp was attacked by the Tang army. When Jie Li saw that the situation was not good, he immediately ran away in a panic. Even his favorite son was separated on the road. He didn't care about finding it and rode a sweat-blooded horse from the Western Regions to run desperately. At first, they were running southwest, but later he was afraid that the Tang army would find out the direction of their escape, so he turned to the west again, and people would eliminate the traces on the road, hoping to get rid of the Tang army's pursuit.

Seeing that it was almost dark, Jie Li did not dare to stop and still ran hard. However, the dozens of guards left by him all showed extremely tired expressions, and the horses they were almost unable to run. Even the BMW under Jie Li also had layers of pink sweat, and white foam was spraying out of his mouth, which showed that the horsepower had been used to the limit and had caused harm to the horse. If he continued to run, he might be exhausted to death.

Feeling that the BMW under his straddle was running slower and more and more severely, Jie Li, who knew the nature of the horse, had to stop the horse and then ordered someone to dismount and rest, which made everyone feel relieved. However, when he got off the horse, Jie Li realized that the skin on his thighs had been worn out, and the blood and silk clothes were tightly stuck together, and finally he endured the severe pain and tore them apart.

Jie Li didn't feel tired when he ran away. As soon as he got off the horse, he immediately felt like his whole body was disintegrating. Each bone was hurt and itchy. In comparison, the injuries on his thighs were nothing. In fact, this was normal. Just now, Jie Li was just rushing to escape, and the fear in his heart covered all the fatigue and pain in his body.

Jie Li sat on the ground and gasped for a while, then he felt a little strength recovered, but it was even more sore than before. What's worse was that he felt thirsty and hungry. After they escaped, they were only concerned about running for their lives, so of course they had not brought water or dry food. When they escaped, they did not bring water or dry food at all. In fact, some guards did not even bring armor and weapons, let alone water and food.

Fortunately, these guards were very loyal. Without Jie Li's instructions, someone immediately prepared to make a fire, and then put the snow in his helmet to prepare water to drink. However, Jie Li immediately stopped him and said, "Don't make a fire, Tang Jun will definitely find us when he sees the fire!"

When the guards heard that Jie Li did not allow the fire to be set, they had no choice but to pick up the snow ball and chew a few bites, barely solving the problem of drinking water. However, as soon as the snow water entered the stomach, everyone felt even hungry.

Jie Li also ate a few bites of snow at this time, and then felt that his stomach was so hungry that he could not use any strength in his body. However, they did not bring dry food at all, and it was already dark, so it was impossible to find food. The only way was to kill the horse, but they still had to rely on horses to escape. One less horse means one person to die, so in the end they could only endure hunger.

As night fell, Jie Li asked someone to clear a piece of open space from the snow, revealing the withered grass below. They squeezed into a ball on the cemetery to rest, so that they could keep each other warm. However, in the middle of the night, Jie Li found that this would not work at all. Because the weather was too cold and they did not bring a blanket to keep warm, so in the end they could only make a fire, burn some hot water to drink, and finally survived the night.

The next morning, although the horse was very tired, Jie Li did not dare to stay here and fled to the west again. Last night, he had already figured out that the West was the territory of Shaboluo, and the person in charge of Shaboluo was his confidant Suni. This time, the Tang army raided, and Suni was also attacked by another Tang army, Li Daozong, so he was unable to meet Jie Li.
