Chapter 81 United to fight against the Tang Dynasty
"What's going on?" Li Yuan's heart hung in the air at that time. Yuyuan Pass belongs to one of the eight passes in Luoyang, belongs to Henan Mansion, once there is a change, it is likely to spread to the entire Henan Mansion, and the most important thing is that if Luoyang is lost, this is a real slap in the face.
Li Yuan couldn't wait to unfold the letter, glanced at it twice, and his originally eager heart suddenly relaxed.
Fortunately, this is just a false alarm, just a small scale of the people's uprising, due to the rapid expansion of the Tang Dynasty, the quality of officials is uneven, the new Yanshi Ling Guo Jize, originally just a bookkeeper of the Wagang Army, successively followed Shan Xiongxin, Wang Junkuo, and later with Wang Junlang in the battle of Luoyang, Guo Jize knew some words, and was named Yanshi Ling. With the end of the war, it became a business road, as the old Wang Xuan of the old department of Wang Jun Lang guarding the old department of Wang Jun Lang here, all the business Wang Xuan took a handful.
The result was good, and Wang Xuan, the guard of Yuyuan Pass, seized it in a short period of time, seized it by force, and accumulated tens of thousands of family fortunes. Guo Jize is very hot-eyed, Guo Jize who followed the Wagang Army is also a bold figure, he asked Wang Xuan for bribes, Wang Xuan didn't bird Guo Jize at all, and Guo Jize concocted so-called evidence, claiming that Wang Hize was plotting rebellion.
Wang Xuan was uneasy because of his arrogance in office and transgression of the law, so he killed the post official and really raised troops. However, the responder was slim, and was personally arrested by Wang Junlang and his personal guards.
……
In the Qinglin outside Chang'an City, Chenjiabao. Since Li Xiuning became pregnant, Li Xiuning has not returned to Chang'an, but recuperated in Chenjiabao with peace of mind.
"Your Royal Highness Princess, Chen Ju has sent a letter!"
Li Xiuning was overjoyed when she heard this.
When I opened the letter, Chen Ying didn't write too many words. It is some daily words to ask for warmth, and I wrote a poem at the end: "Qinghai Changyun Dark Snow Mountain, Lonely City Looking at Yumen Pass." The yellow sand wears gold armor in a hundred battles, and Loulan will not be returned if it is not broken. ”
After reading the letter, Li Xiuning looked worried.
He Yue'er said with a smile: "The horse won a big victory, why are you unhappy?" ”
Li Xiuning smiled bitterly: "Chen Lang is another person who does not make people worry, if he sees a good thing, he will receive as much as he wants, now that it is such a cold day, I don't know how much hardship he has to suffer." Now the enemy is not terrible, the most likely is bad weather! ”
He Yue'er persuaded: "Your Royal Highness the princess, rest assured, Chen Ju Maji people have their own natural appearance!" ”
"I hope so!" Li Xiuning patted his bulging abdomen and muttered: "Your father is not worrying, you are also unconscious, you are also a worryless person, you are playing for your mother all day long, so you are in such a hurry to come out!" ”
He Yue'er pursed her lips and smiled when she heard this.
Li Xiuning asked again: "What are the major movements of the imperial court!" ”
He Yue'er said: "There is no big movement, according to the news from the palace, it is said that His Majesty is ready to crown the King of Qin as the governor of Liangzhou"!
"King Qin, the governor of Liangzhou!"
When Li Xiuning heard this, his face changed at that time. As the first princess of the Tang Dynasty, Li Xiu would rather not only embroider.
Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin's open and secret fight, she didn't really know, she just didn't want to intervene. Li Xiuning thought for a while and said, "Yue'er, you go and pass a word to King Qin to me, if Chen Yuma has anything to do, I won't spare him!" ”
He Yue'er was about to turn around and leave, when Li Xiuning said again: "Wait! ”
He Yue'er turned around and said, "Princess, what else do you have to order!" ”
Li Xiuning said: "You don't need to pass the word, prepare a car for the palace, the palace is going to the palace of the king of Qin, and see the princess of Qin!" ”
……
With Chen Ying's annihilation of the 200,000 troops under the command of Ye Hu Khan in Liangzhou, Ye Hu Ashina was captured, and the army of Ye Hu Khan was defeated and died, and the 200,000 army was wiped out.
Unconsciously, a "Tang phobic wind" blew in the Western Regions. Even Chen Ying didn't realize that the "Datang threat theory" occupied the entire major market overnight.
In Gaochang Gaochang City, Gaochang Wang Koji (Yinqu) Boya sat heavily on the throne, looking at Ling Yin Ma Mengming with a shocked face and said, "What are you talking about, Tongye Hu Khan is defeated?" How is this possible? ”
Gaochangguo is actually the Han regime, which is a very rare existence in the environment where the Western Regions are full of Hu. Most of these Gaochang people are the descendants of the Tuntian army who migrated to Gaochangbi during the Western Han Dynasty. Since the first Gaochang king, Koji Jia, was elected as the king of Gaochang by everyone, more than 140 years later, a relatively independent and stable Han regime has emerged in Gaochang, known as "Koji Gaochang" in history. The Koji Gaochang basically followed the political system of the Central Plains feudal dynasty. Below the king, there is the equivalent of the prime minister's Ling Yin; There are many administrative departments such as the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Ancestral Hall, the Ministry of Treasury, the Department of Warehouse, the Department of Hosts and Guests, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and the Ministry of War. There are four counties and 18 counties in Gaochang.
Ma Mengming sighed and said, "The minister is willing to believe that this news is fake, but in fact, this is exactly true!" ”
Ko Boya muttered, "So Iwu (present-day Hami) has also fallen? ”
Ma Mengming smiled bitterly: "Not to mention Yiwu, even Jiaohe (now Turpan) has fallen. ”
Ko Boya leaned heavily on the throne and let out a long sigh. It seems to have miscalculated. I thought it was just a surprise victory for the Rangers, but I didn't expect that a few months later, the situation would change so much!
When there were sporadic routs two months ago, with the news that the Ashina mud was captured, and the Yehu Khan was killed, and the Khan of the Protector of the Leaves was killed. Lu Boya and Ma Mengming, like all the Gaochang people, believed that this was a trick of the Tang people, a rumor deliberately spread by the Tang people, or a misinformation for some reason.
"200,000 Western Turkic troops were defeated by 20,000 Tang army cavalry? How is that possible? ”
During that time, it became the funniest joke on the streets of Gaochang City. But soon all kinds of unfavorable news came one after another, first the head of the famous Tongye Hu Khan, who was seen by the defeated soldiers in the Tang Dynasty with his own eyes, followed by the Tang people who are said to have organized an army of 100,000 to the west.
Ko Boya thought that this was definitely a rumor, because after entering October, everyone knew how cold the weather was in the Western Regions, and in words without exaggeration, spitting outside the tent at night turned into an ice hockey puck, dripping and spinning on the ground. Bubble pee can hang yo-yo.
In such cold weather, don't look at the army can't stand it, even the war horses can't stand it, no one can march in such cold weather, not even the Western Turks.
However, Chen Ying adopted the method of marching in sleigh tents and caravans, using more than 5,000 sleds, and a ten-person tent was pulled on so many sleds, and the soldiers hid in the tents and marched with fire. Even the war horses are equipped with fur to protect them from the cold.
Of course, in such weather, non-combat attrition is inevitable. However, since the soldiers of the Modao Army and the Xiaocai Army have down jackets and down sleeping bags, they don't have to worry about the cold. In order to ensure the temperature in the RV, Chen Ying asked people to prepare briquettes, and the fire in each RV was not extinguished all night, which greatly improved this problem.
Li Xiuning was worried that Chen Ying would suffer, but Chen Ying was sitting in the carriage, surrounded by four stoves, wearing thin clothes, and he didn't feel cold.
At this time, Chen Yingzheng and Luo Shixin were sitting in front of a copper urn, eating and brushing mutton. At this time, the weather is cold, as long as the mutton is hung in front of the car window for half an hour, the mutton will freeze into ice, and you only need to use a knife to cut layer by layer, you can cut out the kind of mutton rolls as thin as cicada wings in later generations.
This lamb roll is put into a boiling soup pot and eaten when taken out, and it tastes very good.
Chen Ying put down his chopsticks, sighed and said, "Without chili peppers, you can't eat that taste in hot pot!" ”
"What's a chili pepper?" Luo Shixin asked curiously: "I've heard General Chen talk more than once, I really want to meet Chili!" ”
Chen Ying unconsciously looked at the east: "There will be chili peppers, when the world is peaceful in the future, I will go to Zhang Zhongjian and Brother Zhang, and ask for a ship to go to the Americas to get the chili peppers back!" ”
In order to eat chili peppers, why not go on an expedition of thousands of miles.
Of course, just when Chen Ying and Luo Shixin were eating hot pot and shabu mutton, Gaochang Wang Ji Boya suddenly looked at Ma Mengming vigilantly and said, "How is Gaoche?" ”
Gaoche is an important town that is very close to Gaochang City, if you say, the distance between Gaoche and Gaochang is about less than 200 miles! If Gaoche is also lost, then the vast and rich Gaochang area will completely open her tempting chest to the Tang army.
"Heavy snow covers the mountain, and there is no news for the time being, and the Tang army's rangers have approached the high car several times to peep, but there has been no conflict for the time being." Ma Mengming said: "We have seven hundred elites in Gaoche, and if we defend the city, we should be able to resist for a while, but if the Tang army really intends to enter the Tianshan region." Our Gao Changguo can't stop it! ”
Lu Boya said: "Relying on our Gaochang Kingdom alone will definitely not be able to stop the Tang people, so let's do it, Ma Lingyin, you send a letter to the lord of Khotan in the name of your own lord, telling him that the Tang people are not good, and we in the Western Regions must unite to fight against the Tang Dynasty!" ”
Seeing that Ma Mengming hadn't retreated yet, Lu Boya asked, "Is there anything else?" ”
Ma Mengming looked at Lu Boya cautiously and asked, "Your Majesty, in fact, can we consider making peace with Tang Jun?" After all, before the alliance with Tong Ye Hu, there was no old grudge between us and the Tang Army. If you think about it, we haven't had direct contact with them before. ”
Lu Boya said: "But the Tang people, can they be trusted?" “
"This ...... If you don't touch it, how do you know? Ma Mengming said: "20,000 Tang troops defeated the 200,000 army of the Yehu Khan, and our Gaochang State has only 7,000 troops at most, even if the lord of Khotan can agree to unite, our union is only 15,000 men and horses. “
Lu Boya said: "Then contact it first, our Gaochang Kingdom can pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty!" “
