The Tang army was in full swing, and Gaochang City was about to be captured.

Sudden!

A soldier reported to Hou Junji that Gaochang City had stopped fighting and stopped resisting.

Hou Junji was wondering, and another soldier came to report that the gate of Gaochang City was opened and a Gaochang general claimed to talk to Hou Junji.

Hou Junji ordered the Tang army to temporarily stop siege, and then led a few generals to the front of Gaochang City gate.

Zhang Jun rode a few steps forward, came to Hou Junji, and bowed, "I am Zhang Jun, the general of Gaochang's national protection, and I have met General Hou!"

"It turns out it's General Zhang, I have long admired him!" Hou Junji bowed politely to return the gift.

After pausing for a moment, Hou Junji immediately said, "I heard you want to meet this chief executive?"

"This general represents King Gaochang and comes to discuss peace with General Hou." Zhang Jun said neither humble nor arrogantly.

"This chief executive will not accept peace talks unless King Gaochang leads Gaochang's military and civilians to surrender to the Tang Dynasty!" Hou Junji said with a stern face.

Zhang Jun's face changed, and then he coughed dryly, "The king is ready to surrender to the Tang Dynasty, and he specially ordered the general to come and discuss it."

"Since you want to surrender to the Tang Dynasty, let alone peace talks!" Hou Junji's eyes flashed with disdain.

Zhang Jun's face changed again.

Although I was angry, I could do nothing.

"This chief executive once gave Qu Zhisheng a chance to surrender to the Tang Dynasty, but he refused. Now that I am seeing my Tang soldiers breaking through Gaochang City, Qu Zhisheng is going to surrender to the Tang Dynasty, it is probably too late." Hou Junji spoke again and said unhappy.

"Prime Minister please calm down!" Zhang Jun said with a tough forehead, "The main reason why the king did not surrender before was not the king, but the Asunaju."

"Ashinaju?" Hou Junji's eyes shrank slightly, and questions flashed across his eyes.

"Asinaju was a minister appointed by the Western Turkic Khan to Gaochang to assist the former Gaochang King in governing Gaochang. He was actually the ruling minister of Gaochang. The reason why Gaochang was an enemy of the Tang Dynasty was entirely because the Western Turkic Khan and Asinaju were instigated by the Western Turkic Khan and Asinaju." Zhang Jun explained.

"North Gaochang King has thought of surrendering to the Tang Dynasty, but as the governing minister of Gaochang, Ashinaju had great power, and King Gaochang could not make the decision."

Hou Junji stared at Zhang Jun half-believingly.

"Asinaju has been captured by this general and is about to offer it to the Tang Dynasty!" Zhang Jun said, waved his hand.

Behind him, two soldiers escorted Asano, who was tied up in front of Hou Junji.

"In order to express your determination to surrender to the Tang Dynasty, I will present Ashinaju to the Tang Dynasty!" Zhang Jun pointed at Ashinaju? He said to Hou Junji again.

Hou Junji glanced at Ashinaju?                                                          

Not long after? Hou Junji spoke out: "Come here? Take Ashinaju back."

As soon as he finished speaking, two soldiers walked out from behind? Escort Asunaju.

"Hou Junji, am I a Turkic minister? Let me go quickly? Otherwise, my Turkic army will siege the Tang Dynasty!" Ashinaju scolded.

Hou Junji was just thinking of taking Asunaju back to Chang'an first and waiting for the Emperor of Tang to deal with it, but when he saw Asunaju speaking wildly, he immediately became angry.

"Get out of the way!" Hou Junji suddenly roared.

The two soldiers who escorted Ashinaju were stunned for a moment?                                                      �

Hou Junji suddenly kicked the stirrups with his feet, and his whole body scurried up.

The sword light passed by!

Asuna's head left his neck!

Blood splatters!

Hou Jun fell to the group, and the horizontal knife in his hand had been sheathed!

Everyone was shocked!

"Dare to speak wildly in front of this chief executive and seek death!" Hou Junji glanced at the head of Ashinaju on the ground, with a look of disdain? He said coldly.

Everyone came to their senses, and the look of surprise on their faces had not subsided.

The general behind Hou Junji moved the corner of his mouth? It seemed like he had something to say, but he still held it back.

"If the Western Turks dare to send troops to the Tang Dynasty? This general manager will lead his army to take his Khan's head back to Chang'an!" Hou Junji said immediately.

Hou Junji cut off Asanoju's head in front of everyone, and wasn't he so angry? He was deliberately doing it for everyone to see it? Especially for Gaochang's soldiers? They were afraid of him.

At the same time, let Gaochang's soldiers understand that if they do not sincerely surrender to the Tang Dynasty, they will end up like this.

Zhang Jun and other Gaochang soldiers were indeed shocked. They had never thought that Hou Junji would cut off Asano's head in front of them.

"Zhang Jun, go back and tell Qu Zhisheng that if you really want to surrender to the Tang Dynasty, you will come to welcome my Tang army into the city in person!" Hou Junji's eyes moved back to Zhang Jun's face and said sternly.

Zhang Jun frowned, took a deep breath, and said lightly: "I will convey the words of the Grand General to the King! I will say goodbye first!"

Zhang Jun turned his horse's head and rode his horse back to Gaochang City.

Hou Junji also turned his horse's head and rode his horse back to the camp.

An hour later, the messenger reported that Gaochang King Qu Zhisheng personally led his civil and military ministers to welcome the Tang army into the city.

After hearing this, Hou Junji raised his lips and showed a smug smile.

After Hou Junji led his army into Gaochang City, he arbitrarily plundered gold, silver and jewelry, and then attacked the common people as official slaves.

When his soldiers saw the head coach like this, they followed suit.

In order to prevent his soldiers from reporting him, Hou Junji let his soldiers do evil.

This incident caused great losses to the reputation of Tang Jun.

This has also caused most of the Tang army who did not participate in it to be despised and despised by local people and officials.

Many generals did not dare to stop Hou Junji as the head coach and the important officials around Li Er.

But!

Li Zaigu knew about this and immediately met Hou Junji, argued with him to stop the Tang army that continued to harm the people.

Hou Junji thought that Li Zaigu was also Li Er's confidant minister, so he had to issue an order to prohibit all Tang army from doing things that harm the people, otherwise military law would be dealt with.

After this incident, Hou Junji hated Li Zaigu even more.

After the Tang army entered Gaochang City, other cities in Gaochang surrendered one after another.

The Tang army captured three counties, five counties, and more than twenty cities, captured more than 30,000 people and more than 4,000 horses!

After Li Zaigu stopped the Tang army from harming the people, he advised Hou Junji to take the opportunity to attack the Western Turks.

Hou Junji did not accept Li Zaigu's advice and made an excuse to say that he did not dare to make decisions on such a major matter and must start the report.

Li Zaigubin wanted to use the Western Turks to instigate Gaochang to invade the border areas of the Tang Dynasty and send troops to support Gaochang, and to oppose the Tang Dynasty as an excuse to send troops to the Western Turks and annihilate them in one fell swoop, so as not to become a big shot in the Western Turks.

Li Zaigu has discovered that the combat effectiveness of the Western Turks is much worse than that of the Eastern Turks.

If the Tang army took advantage of the current morale, they would definitely be able to annihilate the Western Turks in one fell swoop and include them in the governance of the Tang Dynasty.

What a pity, Hou Junji did not listen to him.

Although he could not take the opportunity to attack the Western Turks, Li Zaigu obtained a piece of news that the Western Turks Khan was worried that the Tang army would take the opportunity to attack the Western Turks, so he had already escaped and ran for thousands of miles.

At the same time, the Western Turks sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty to pay tribute to them, expressing their surrender.

After hearing this news, Li Zaigu understood that the Western Turks would not dare to oppose the Tang Dynasty again, and would be at least stable for a few years.
