Li Hao and the three of them exchanged pleasantries for a while, Li Ji welcomed Li Hao into the city, and directly took Li Hao to the temporary military camp in the city to carry out the transfer of military power.

After coming to the barracks, Li Ji, Su Dingfang, and Cheng Yanjin issued a military order, ordering all the soldiers to gather in the school field, and under an order, the barracks were suddenly crowded, and countless soldiers all rushed to the school field, and after a while, Li Ji ordered the troops, confirmed that the 90,000 troops had arrived, and reported to Li Hao.

Li Hao boarded the general's platform, glanced at the troops under the field, and saw that as far as the eye could see, there were all black and oppressive heads, like dark clouds covering the sky, so magnificent.

"Ladies and gentlemen." Li Hao suddenly spoke, and said in a loud voice, "I am the generalissimo of the Ten Dao Soldiers and Horses personally appointed by His Majesty the Emperor, Li Hao, the King of Qiongnan. ”

It was just a simple self-introduction, which immediately detonated the audience, 90,000 soldiers and Li Hao's 10,000 Xuanjia troops, a total of 100,000 troops, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, they all shouted excitedly, and their voices were uniform: "God of War!" God of War! The god of the army ...... "The roar of 90,000 people shook the clouds and swallowed the mountains and rivers, and no sound could be heard except for their roars."

Li Hao raised his hand violently, and the earth-shaking roar stopped abruptly, Li Hao had been infected with the blood in his heart by their roar, and said with a little excitement: "The prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty, suddenly suffered a catastrophe, Tubo barbarians, leaping thousands of miles, attacking the capital of our country, wreaking havoc in the land of my Han people, killing my Tang people, plundering my Tang women and children, robbing my Tang grain, burning my Tang houses, you are a hot-blooded man in the Tang Dynasty, can you bear it!" ”

"Nope! Yes! Endure! The 100,000 army roared in unison, almost shouting out all the anger and resentment in their hearts, they had long wanted to go to Chang'an to kill those Tubo barbarians, but the three lords did not allow it, because they had the emperor's order in their bodies, and they could not act rashly, so they were waiting for the arrival of the military god Li Hao, waiting for the moment of counterattack, and now that it was finally time, they were about to be able to vent the anger in their hearts frantically, and some people were already trembling with excitement.

"Good!" Li Hao said loudly, "Tomorrow, everyone will go to the armament department to get a pair of cotton gloves and protect their hands, because these hands of yours are going to be used to slaughter the Tibetan barbarians, so they can't be injured!" The day after tomorrow, the army set off to aid Chang'an, let the Tibetan barbarians see, your guns! Whether it's rusty or not! Li Guocheng, please Golden Fish Talisman, Xue Rengui, please Holy Decree! ”

Li Guocheng and Xue Rengui both ascended the high platform, Xue Rengui's hand held the holy decree, Li Guocheng's hand, holding a golden fish talisman more than seven inches long, in the Tang Dynasty, the transfer of troops needs to have the Ministry of War and the emperor's imperial gift of the bronze fish talisman, and the fish talisman in front of him is the golden fish talisman, representing the highest authority in the army, this fish talisman once belonged to the supreme commander of Tiance Mansion General Tiance Mansion.

From the establishment of Tiance Mansion to its dissolution, there has only been one general, that is, Li Shimin, the king of Qin, after many years, the golden fish talisman has reappeared in the world, but this time it is another young talent who is famous in the Tang Dynasty, he is Li Hao.

When Li Guocheng raised the golden fish talisman high, the 100,000 army knelt down in unison, including Li Ji, Su Dingfang, and Cheng Biting Jin, and there were only three people standing in the field: Li Hao, Li Guocheng, and Xue Rengui.

Datang does not kneel, even if the face is saintly, there is no need to kneel, however, when encountering major ceremonies, it is still necessary to kneel, in order to show the solemnity and solemnity of the ceremony.

Xue Rengui unfolded the holy decree and read it aloud: "The edict said: Tubo barbarians, ravaging the Tang Dynasty, seizing several cities in the Tang Dynasty and not stopping, it is a stone's throw away from Chang'an, this is the autumn of the survival of Jiangshan Sheji, at a very time, when the extraordinary person, Li Hao, the king of Qiongnan County, is young and talented, both civil and military, and has defeated Tubo several times,...... Li Hao, the king of Qiongnan, was the generalissimo of the ten soldiers and horses of the Tang Dynasty, awarded the golden fish charm, controlled the ten soldiers and horses, acted cheaply, and rushed to the aid of King Chang'an Qin. ”

When they heard this holy decree, everyone was shocked, including Li Ji, Su Dingfang and Cheng Yanjin, they just received the holy decree, saying that they should gather soldiers and horses and wait for Li Hao to take over the military power, and they didn't know that the emperor named Li Hao as the generalissimo of the Ten Soldiers and Horses, such a position should not appear at all.

However, Li Ji thought about it carefully, and realized that now that Chang'an is besieged, no news can be transmitted, and if Li Hao wants to rescue, he must give Li Hao enough military power at one time, otherwise who knows if Li Hao can succeed at one time, if he loses these 90,000 soldiers and horses, will Li Hao watch the Tubo army capture Chang'an?

Li Ji secretly admired that Li Shimin's decision this time was very wise, although he took a certain risk, at least he would not let the Tang Dynasty fall into the hands of the Tibetan barbarians.

Because even if King Li Haoqin fails, Chang'an falls, and Li Shimin dies, at least Hanmin still has a spiritual leader, with this holy purpose, Li Hao can justifiably raise the banner to gather the soldiers and horses of all forces, and continue to deal with the Tubo army, tens of millions of people in the Tang Dynasty, as long as someone leads and twists into a rope, Tubo will eventually be driven out of the territory of the Tang Dynasty, but if there is no such holy decree, when the time comes, all the forces will have their own thoughts, and they want to drive away the Tubo army, which is really difficult.

However, Li Ji didn't know that the content of this holy decree was put forward by Li Zhi, because Li Zhi trusted Li Hao 100%, and Li Zhi did prepare for the worst, that is, Li Ji's thoughts, and it can also be seen that Li Zhi surpasses his father Li Shimin in some aspects.

After reading out the holy decree, Li Hao began to point generals, Feng Xue Rengui as the general of Qinwang North Road, Feng Li Guo as the general of Qinwang South Road, Chen Bin as the general of Qinwang East Road, Li Ji as the general of Qinwang West Road, as for Su Dingfang and Cheng Yanjin, Li Hao did not mention it, but the two of them did not have the slightest objection, such a crisis moment, not the time to compete for performance, the country is the most important, since Li Hao is the generalissimo of soldiers and horses, all the decisions he makes have his reasons, and their duty is to obey unconditionally.

The point is about to end, Li Hao stayed in the barracks, there was nothing to say all night, the next morning, all the officers and men of the whole army according to Li Hao's instructions, went to the armament department to get gloves, fighting in winter, the Tang army was most afraid of frostbite, especially the hands, after all, the hands should hold iron weapons, it was not a little cold, and it was common for the hands to be frostbitten, so it was easy to damage the combat power.

After receiving the gloves, all the soldiers were smiling, because they could immediately experience the benefits of these cotton gloves after wearing the gloves, and they no longer had to be afraid of the cold weather.

Since the morning, the sky has been gloomy, in the afternoon, it began to snow, and in the evening, it has become a goose feather snow, Li Hao looked at the thermometer, and the temperature dropped by three degrees, it was already minus nine degrees.

Li Hao frowned suddenly, and hurriedly summoned Li Ji and them to come to his tent to discuss important matters.

After everyone arrived, Li Hao frowned slightly and said: "It's snowing heavily, the temperature has plummeted, and it is expected that after the snow stops, it will cool down again, which is not a good thing for the Tang sergeant, Lu Dongzan is likely to take advantage of the cold weather to forcibly attack the city." ”

Li Ji and they also frowned when they heard this, for these things, they also knew that the Tubo people lived on the snowy plateau all the year round and were used to cold weather, but the Tang army was not used to it, if the temperature plummeted, Lu Dongzan would definitely take the opportunity to attack the city, and at that time, Chang'an would be dangerous.

Li Ji hurriedly said: "Dashuai, without further ado, we will rush to Chang'an tomorrow!" ”

Li Hao lowered his head and muttered for a moment, and said: "Early tomorrow morning, Xue Rengui and Chen Bin will lead the five thousand Qiongnan army to ambush in the mountains and forests north of Xuanwu Gate, and take the arrows of this commander as the signal!" ”

"Yes!" Xue Rengui and Chen Bin gave up their orders.

Li Hao said again: "Li Guocheng, you lead 5,000 Qiongnan troops to the east of Chang'an City with your commander, and are ready to attack the Tubo Chinese army at any time." ”

"Yes!" Li Guocheng gave up his hand.

Li Hao turned his head to face Li Ji and said, "British duke, this commander will take all the cavalry in the army, a total of 40,000, and go to Chang'an first, and you will take 50,000 troops to catch up." ”

"Yes!" Li Ji also surrendered his life, and for the first time in history, Li Hao became Li Ji's top boss.

"Okay, you go back immediately and order your subordinates to rest early, get up tomorrow, and set off at three o'clock, without delay, otherwise the military law will deal with it!"

"Yes! Subordinates retire! "Everyone bowed and withdrew.

Li Hao sent them out of the tooth tent, looked up at the heavy snow, fell into a deep groan, the blood fell quietly on the top of his head, and it only took a moment to dye his hair white, Li Hao raised his hand to wipe the snowflakes on the top of his head and shoulders, and sighed with frowns: "It's really not beautiful, this heavy snow is too inopportune, I hope Uncle Qin and the old army god can hold on." ”

Early the next morning, the army was divided into two groups, Li Hao and Xue Rengui led the cavalry and walked relatively fast, while Li Ji led the infantry and walked relatively slowly, and soon opened the distance.

Just set off less than an hour, the snow gradually stopped, but the sky did not clear, at noon, the army suspended to rest, Li Hao took the time to take out the thermometer and looked, minus fifteen degrees, noon is the highest temperature, it is actually minus fifteen degrees, it can be seen that this cooling is not a little bit lower, Li Hao is still familiar with the weather in Guanzhong, after all, he has lived here for many years, like this low temperature, it is not common.

This heavy snowfall made Li Hao worried, but there was one person who was very happy, that is, Ge Erdonzan, when Ge Dong Zan saw the snow yesterday, he was very happy, he ran into the heavy snow, opened his arms, raised his head to meet the snowflakes, and shouted in Tubo language: "The snow helps me!" Help me! This phase is going to break Chang'an this time! ”

That night, Gerdonzan ordered the armies to be ready for the siege.

The Tang army at the head of the city was affected by the severe cold weather, and all the hands were frostbitten lightly or severely, and some people even found that their hands and spears were stuck together at the end of the guard, and a large piece of skin was torn off with a pull, and this ghost weather really made the Tang army miserable.

Li Jing let people carry the city wall to inspect the city defense, when he got the report that the soldiers were frostbitten, he gradually frowned, he faintly had a bad premonition, he was a military god, he knew all the war files of the Tang Dynasty well, he remembered, when Songzhou was stationed, Hou Junji almost let the Tubo army capture Songzhou, because of the cold weather, how similar to the current situation.

Li Ji's prediction was indeed not bad, and in the afternoon of the same day, Ge Erdongzan ordered a full-scale onslaught on Chang'an City, and even moved out the remaining more than 20 catapults.

The Tang army at the head of the city fought back, when they used the bed crossbow, but there were accidents one after another, the crossbow string of the bed crossbow could not stand the cold weather, frozen stiff, under the vigorous pulling, all of them collapsed, some bed crossbows even broke the crossbow arm, and the Tang army at the head of the city suddenly fell into a bitter battle.
