——This is definitely a scene worthy of being recorded in history books.

From the moment the banners of the Great Tang and the Gu Clan were planted on the Holy Mountain of the Turks.

For the entire Kyushu.

The impact and significance it can bring are far beyond what others can imagine.

Jie Li Khan surrendered.

That’s right, he surrendered.

Even though there were less than three thousand troops left on Kuduke Mountain, neither Jie Li Khan nor his subordinates had any will to fight.

The collapse of their faith completely shattered their already tense emotions.

That overwhelming despair enveloped everyone.

It wasn’t enough to support them to continue fighting.

Even Jie Li Khan himself was affected by unprecedented despair, losing all courage to resist.

——The outcome is decided!

....

Li Jing is an experienced commander.

When he noticed that Jie Li Khan was about to abandon Yin Mountain, he had already figured out the possible retreat route.

He closely pursued from the rear.

He originally thought they would fight the final battle on this Turkish Holy Mountain.

But when he heard the news brought back by the scout, he was completely stunned.

"The Grand Tutor has already captured the Holy Mountain, and Jie Li has surrendered?"

Li Jing was full of amazement, and the generals under his command were equally stupefied.

The previously tense atmosphere instantly dissipated.

Everyone widened their eyes, looking at each other, unable to react for a moment.

Li Jing felt the same.

However, as the commander of the three armies, Li Jing quickly gathered himself, immediately ordering his troops to swiftly head towards Kuduke Mountain.

The army galloped forward.

Although they already knew the report from the front, many still found it hard to believe.

Gu Yan had only thousands of troops under his command.

This was what they knew.

Moreover, even though there were not many casualties after the battle at Bai Daochuan, the continuous raids were sure to affect the combat strength of the three armies.

They really couldn’t imagine how Gu Yan managed to withstand Jie Li Khan.

But when they saw the banners of the Great Tang and the Gu Clan flying on the Turkish Holy Mountain, they accepted this reality.

Li Jing met Gu Yan.

He was actually a bit curious why Gu Yan made this choice instead of attacking Yin Mountain from both sides with him.

If that was the case, it would have avoided the current troubles altogether.

But Gu Yan didn’t hide anything, directly revealing that he had also occupied the Juyan Sea.

Without needing to explain further, Li Jing glanced at the map and instantly understood the significance of occupying the Juyan Sea, his eyes lighting up.

This is the heartland of the Western Turks!

As long as it is occupied, they can directly wage war against the Western Turks in the future.

And then regain the Western Regions!

No general does not long for achievements on the battlefield.

Li Jing was no different.

After realizing this, he quickly understood the implication of the Gu Clan’s series of arrangements, and his expression grew more complex.

"The Grand Tutor truly lives up to being a descendant of the Gu Clan."

"Such strategy...."

"Reminds me of the Grand General."

He couldn’t help but exclaim, his eyes suddenly becoming more complicated.

Li Jing did not participate in the Xuanwu Gate Incident.

Precisely because of this, he did not know the current situation of Gu Quan.

Although there were rumors in Chang’an saying that the Faceless General was Gu Quan, these were just speculations without any evidence.

Li Jing didn’t believe them.

Hearing this, Gu Yan’s eyes changed instantly, but after a moment of silence, he said nothing more.

He could not betray the trust of Gu Yu and Gu Quan.

This was also his responsibility.

The two spoke for a long time, arranging for the control of the Eastern Turkic remnants and to bring Jie Li Khan back to Chang’an.

This had become one of Li Shimin’s obsessions.

Although history had changed, and Li Shimin did not make the shameful Wei River Alliance with Jie Li Khan,

Li Shimin’s aspirations were also much higher than in the original history.

To him.

Jie Li Khan, who had an alliance with him yet dared to harass the Great Tang, was a disgrace!

...

The news spread continuously.

Only then did the events at Kuduke Mountain fully reach all directions.

This also included the surrender of Jie Li Khan and the complete demise of the Eastern Turks.

——The world was shocked!

On this vast land, there were indeed too many tribes.

And for them.

The Eastern Turks were already an untouchable giant, and now this giant collapsed under the iron hooves of the Tang Army, with even the Holy Mountain being breached by them.

The fear this instilled in them was unimaginable.

After many years.

They again remembered their fear of the people from the Central Plains, and that legendary "surname."

Gu Yan’s name resounded in all directions.

The two banners, which were clearly only flying on Kuduke Mountain, seemed to embed themselves into the entire steppe, making all the tribes feel a deep-seated dread.

Even the various forces within the Western Turks were shocked.

Although they had long split from the Eastern Turks.

Their faith remained the same.

Kuduke Mountain was also their Holy Mountain at heart.

And now that the place had been captured by the Tang Army, it was naturally a disgrace to them.
