Chapter 1088: Sending Troops

Xia Hongsheng is a lazy person, if he can't do it himself, he is willing to hand it over to others, so that he can be a hands-off shopkeeper. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

This rehearsal is also, as soon as his four wives go into battle together, he will look here and there every day at ease, occasionally give a few words of guidance, and live a pastime and feel comfortable.

In the middle, Li Lizhi went back to the palace to visit her father, and when she came back, she said that Li Shimin was secretly practicing in the palace, and she also pulled the eldest grandson queen and the fourth concubine to listen to him sing, ready to be a blockbuster.

Xia Hongsheng naturally leaned forward and leaned back with a smile, and felt more relieved.

Datang is getting better and better, and it is becoming more and more civilized. This kind of environment will affect people, and the court of the Tang Dynasty is slowly becoming more enlightened.

Xia Hongsheng took seven years, and then thought that there were still several seven years left in his life, and at that time, what would Datang look like? I can't help but make people think about it and look forward to it.

The present world is stable, the years are quiet, but I am afraid that it is like this.

When Xia Hongsheng opened his mouth to take the preserved fruit handed over by Yuexian, he thought so in his heart.

I was about to get up and comment a few words, but suddenly there was a shout outside, but I saw the doorman running in. Seeing him come in, Xia Hongsheng knew that he was afraid that he would not be able to entertain himself today.

The fact that this doorman was able to come to him in such a hurry was nothing more than another summons from the palace.

Xia Hongsheng got up, and without waiting for the doorman of the academy to run to him, he walked over by himself and said lightly, "Let's go." ”

Came out of the academy, got into a carriage, and was driven by the guards in the palace, galloping towards Chang'an City.

When I arrived in the palace, I saw Li Shimin, and I also saw the generals around him, along with the sand table in front of him.

Needless to say, when you see the terrain on the sand table, you know that it is a matter of Tibet.

"Tubo has made a move so soon?" Xia Hongsheng asked: "With Chang'an being far away, the Tibetan envoys are afraid that they have not yet returned to Luo. It seems that they had been prepared in advance, and as soon as the letter arrived, they immediately sent out their troops. This confirms the previous speculation. ”

When everyone heard Xia Hongsheng's previous speculation, they didn't have any doubts, thinking that Li Shimin had already told them.

"Just in time." Li Shimin smiled faintly, his expression was sparse, he raised his hand and pointed down the sand table, and said: "The virtuous son-in-law is not bad, Tubo Guo is guilty of Songzhou." ”

Xia Hongsheng did not speak, he had heard Su Dingfang say before that Li Shimin had made preparations in advance, and set up a four-way army to wipe out Tubo in one fell swoop. In Xia Hongsheng's view, with the combat effectiveness of the Tang Dynasty army now, this battle is not too big, and Li Shimin does not need to summon himself.

Li Shimin really had something else to order, so he only heard him say to Xia Hongsheng: "Tubo is not to be afraid, and those who should be cautious are the place." The virtuous son-in-law once said that the terrain is too high, and the people in the customs will rush to go up, and they will give birth to the disease known as 'altitude sickness'. The virtuous son-in-law also said that there is a solution, but now it is ready? ”

"Back to my father-in-law, I'm already ready." Xia Hongsheng bowed and saluted, and said, "It's nothing more than that the terrain is too high to get used to." Therefore, when the army is approaching Tibet, it must not march too fast. If a person has symptoms such as headaches, tiredness, or even difficulty breathing, he must stop marching and stay there for more than seven days until his symptoms disappear before continuing his march. The higher the terrain, the more difficult it is to breathe. There is no cure, only relief. Therefore, the use of troops in the land of Tibet can be delayed but not rushed. ”

"The affairs of the military formation are changing rapidly. If you can't get sick, how can you fight? "Even if someone asks.

Xia Hongsheng knew that someone would definitely ask this, and he had already planned in his heart, so he smiled and said: "The army is fighting with Tubo in Songzhou, and there will be no such symptoms in this realm, just as usual." When the Tubo was defeated and retreated, the army did not need to chase urgently, but it was also reluctant, and walked slowly, while adapting to the local terrain and reducing symptoms, while waiting for some civil strife. The Tubo side is barely unified and its foundation is unstable, so it must fight with the Tang Dynasty, one is to divert its internal strife and unite with the outside world, and the other is to use the Tang Dynasty to build power against the surrounding small countries. Datang can also be used in reverse. There is a chaotic situation, there are chasing soldiers behind Songtsen Gampo, there are chaotic troops in front, and there are impassable mountains in the south, and there are only two directions to go. The small country of Nibora may not dare to accept him. had to go north, then the Tang Dynasty sent troops from Liangzhou, in the original Tuguhun land, now Qinghai Road blocked, it has nowhere to go - to say, the son-in-law is hoping that the mud Bora can receive Songtsan Gampo. ”

"Mud Bora ......" Li Shimin looked down at the sand table, shook his head and smiled: "Before Tubo has been won, you will hit Tianzhu with your calculations, so you are not afraid that the whole world will say that the Tang Dynasty is domineering, and you will come together to fight the Tang Dynasty?" ”

"Who would dare? Is it the countries of the Western Regions, or the few next to Linyi? Xia Hongsheng also laughed: "Not to mention that they have left Datang now, they will immediately have no food and clothing, just talking about force, the firepower of an artillery unit in Datang now, in the face of such a small country, it is still possible to destroy a country in one day - anyway, after taking Tubo, the next nervous person should be Tianzhu." Tianzhu is arrogant and arrogant, thinking that he will ride a few elephants as if he is invincible, and when the time comes, it will still be the Chinese food of the Tang Dynasty. ”

"It seems that the battle of Tibet should be worry-free." Fang Xuanling suddenly smiled: "Otherwise, how can you talk about Tianzhu again." It's just that the minister has some concerns, with a Tibetan rebel general, can he really succeed in the rebellion and confront the army of Songtsen Gampo? ”

Xia Hongsheng shook his head and said with a smile: "Naturally, he can't, but so many spies and special combat personnel sent by Datang over the years are not vegetarians." The army was taken away by Songtsen Gampo, and the Logos were empty, and once the communication was cut off, the Logos did not know what was happening in front of them. The Tubo court has just been unified, and it is already unstable, and a little spark can cause a fire. Anyway, it is not very useful to cause some chaos, it is just to delay time and give the Tang soldiers a time to adapt to the plateau area. ”

Li Shimin answered: "Songtsan Gampo is not a fool, knowing that he is not the opponent of the Tang Dynasty, he will immediately retreat to Luo, and then ask for surrender, and slowly try to do it." However, if Luo Qi was occupied by the rebels, he knew that the north was the Qinghai Road of the Tang Dynasty, and he would not go to the soldiers in Liangzhou to collide with him. Therefore they will lead their troops to attack the Logos, and take them back from the hands of the rebels. This seizure gave the Tang soldiers behind him time to adapt there and restore their combat strength. Then he chased after him and swallowed him. ”

"What if he gives up on Logic?"

When these words came out, even a few people grinned.

"That's better, the army will reach Rakha, and based on the city, he Songtsen Gampo will become a rogue." Xia Hongsheng explained with a smile.

"Tubo himself sent it to the door, and this battle should be taken down in one fell swoop." Li Shimin stared at the sand table and said in a deep voice: "There have been arrangements some time ago, everyone go." ”

The generals immediately looked happy, hugged their fists and said: "Obey!" ”
