Seeing Badr unconscious as he was carried into the king's tent, Abiciel couldn't help but break the short knife in his hand - originally Abiciellir had planned to use this short knife to teach the failed Badr a good lesson, but when he saw his friend for many years lying on a stretcher and dying, the anger in his heart against the enemy had already overshadowed the shame of defeat.
"Who did that?" Abicialir said slowly, word by word: "Who injured the Right Virtuous King like this!" ā
"Qiyu Great Khan, it is reported, yes, it is a young man named Lu Mingxian, and it is rumored that this person is, a descendant of the Golden Gun, the descendant of the Golden Gun Lu family." Seeing the Great Khan's anger, the person who reciprocated was not even able to speak for it.
"Is that Lu Qinghan?" Abicheril threw the broken knife to the ground and said angrily: "That Gao Dingbian is also Lu Qinghan's nephew, no wonder these people spread news everywhere to provoke me to fight, it turned out that they came to avenge Lu Qinghan!" Good, good, good! Just as you wished! Herald! Gather all the generals immediately and prepare to send troops! ā
Abicheril waved his hand and motioned for the others to go out, leaving only a doctor from the Paz Empire behind, before asking, "How is the injury of the Right Virtuous King?" ā
The doctor replied: "The villain has already seen the injuries of the Right Virtuous King, and the life of the Right Virtuous King is fine, but the wound is very deep, reaching the viscera, I am afraid that it will take at least half a year of rest to recover." ā
Abiciel nodded, and said, "Then the Right Virtuous King will be handed over to you, if there is anything you need, you can go and get it, if there is a mistake, you are the only one who asks!" Let's go down. ā
"Yes, yes, the villain obeys." The doctor hurriedly bowed out.
As soon as the doctor left, one of them broke into the king's tent. Abicheril saw that it was his son Hesa.
"Father, I heard that you are going to send troops to attack the Silk Country?"
Abhicheril nodded: "This time you also go with you, as the son of the Great Khan of Tukhi, you must establish your own merits!" ā
"Father, I have just come from Brother Themon, and he wants me to bring you a message."
"What did Timon say?"
"Father, Brother Themon said that Tuqi had gathered the forces of the whole country to prepare for the attack on the Silk Country, but the armies in various places had not yet been fully mobilized, and the time for sending troops was a little earlier at this time, and the specific strategic goals were still necessary to be discussed; But if you are sending troops to avenge Lord Badr, then the Great Khan must think twice before he acts, lest he regret it. ā
"What does Teemon mean by that?" Abicialir said with a displeased expression.
Hesa adjusted his mood and said: "First, according to intelligence, the weakest defense in the border area of the Silk Country is Liaodong, not Youzhou, and in terms of the location of the attack, Liaodong is also the most inconvenient point for the Silk Country to rush to help, so if you want to avoid the real and attack the false, it is obvious that Liaodong will be more suitable than Youzhou." Second, in terms of strategic importance, Youzhou is not the first choice. Liaodong is sparsely populated and has many tribes, and the rule of the Silk Kingdom there is not solid, and once conquered, it can directly threaten the homeland of Goryeo; Taiyuan is economically rich and densely populated, and can directly cut off the enemy's capital Chang'an from the eastern territory, forcing the country of Silk to make peace, which is the preferred target of attack; The Hetao area can cut off the main passage between the Silk Country and the Western Regions, and controlling it plays a vital role in preventing the power of the Silk Country from infiltrating the Western Regions, so the ownership of the Lingzhou Fengzhou area also determines the safety of the Hetao area. Only the Youzhou area can not pose a threat to the enemy, and it is easy to receive several flanking attacks, and besides, there are many water networks there, which is not conducive to the mobility of our cavalry. If you just raise troops for your own personal grudges, it must be the failure of the teacher, please see your father! ā
Abiciel clenched his fists as he listened, and he naturally knew what Timon was saying, but how could he not know this simple truth? Whether it is Fengzhou, Lingzhou, or Taiyuan are the heavily fortified places of the Silk Country, how easy is it to conquer? The reason why Liaodong does not have key fortifications is not because the country of silk does not understand the importance of Liaodong, but because Liaodong is vast and sparsely populated. Youzhou, by contrast, was still the easiest target, and Timeng's rhetoric was just a desire to give up his intention to send troops this time.
At that moment, Abicialir said: "You go and tell Timeng that as a Great Khan, if you are provoked by others but dare not return the color, then its prestige will inevitably be damaged, of course I know that this battle is not easy, but I will not aim to capture Youzhou, just to teach Gao Dingbian and Lu Mingxian a lesson." ā
Hesa sighed and said, "Father, I really let Brother Themon tell me right, and your answer is really so." ā
"Oh? If Timon had even expected this, what would he have asked you to preach? Isn't that redundant? ā
Hesa smiled: "Of course, Brother Temeng has a later story." He said that if you answer like you just did, I will tell you, if this is the case, please Khan, you will simply plan and send troops to Youzhou. He also said that now Tuqi has gathered 200,000 troops, which is enough to attack the country of silk from several directions, and if it can make the country of silk mistakenly think that Youzhou is the target of the main attack, then there may be hope to open up the situation in other directions. I have here a strategic diagram that he drawn, and he said father, you can see it at a glance. ā
After saying that, Hesa took out a piece of sheepskin from his bosom, and Abichlir took it and looked at it, and immediately raised his eyebrows, and said continuously: "Interesting and interesting, this kid is really a goblin, this plan is worth trying, it's worth trying!" ā
As soon as this order came out, the entire Tukchi country was mobilized, and the size of the Turgist army finally reached an unprecedented 280,000, and it can be said that all the people who could go to the battlefield in the entire Turgist country were mobilized.
Abicilir claimed that Tuchi would march south with 500,000 men to avenge the revenge of the Right Sage King Badr, but of course, in order to achieve this momentum, he also followed the advice of his ministers and postponed the timing of the army until the end of the autumn. This is also due to the fact that there is a very important condition in the plan that Timon gave him that must not be carried out until after the autumn. (To be continued.) )
