1328. Chapter 1328

Since the Tang Emperor had decided to fight a decisive battle, just as he could not stop Emperor Yang of Sui from continuously conquering Goguryeo, the ministers also could not stop the decision of Li Zhi, who was in power, and had to help him plan this war with all his might.

Since the fastest updated novel has decided to fight, the next thing to discuss should be how to fight, but the courtiers are dumbfounded, because the ministers are embarrassed to find that they can't beat Li Jie's Min Tang!

The area bordering the Mintang and the Tang Dynasty is in Fujian, the Pearl River Basin, that place was still a wild place before Li Jie went, and the army rushed from Haidong to Yangzhou and then to Fujian, and it could not be reached in half a year, and now Fujian is not actually important on the strategic map of Fujian and Tang, even if it is lost, it is not too distressing.

But once the main force of the Tang army went south to the south of the Yangtze River, Guanzhong was empty, and Li Jie repeated his old tricks and raided Chang'an from Tubo, then everything would be over, and the emperor was because he led Guanzhong Xiaoguo south to Jiangdu and lost Guanzhong to Li Yuan.

Or the Tang Dynasty can send troops to Tibet and attack the Jingshi of Tianzhu from the Himalayas, just like the strategy of Changsun Wuji last time, the problem is that the Min and Tang Dynasties also set up heavy troops in the Himalayas this time, and the number of people attacking is less than just sending food, and the number of people attacking is too large, and the Tang Dynasty cannot support the supply line of the plateau, and the Tang army is also not adapted to altitude sickness.

There were more than 60 battles in the history of the Tang Dynasty and Tibet, the Tang army was defeated and the whole army was wiped out more than 40 times, and these more than 40 battles almost all took place on the plateau, and the Tang army on the plain was never defeated.

If the offense can't be done, they have to defend, but on how to defend, the opinions of the ministers are not unified again, because Li Jieke has too many offensive positions!

He can launch an attack from Fujian to Jiangdu, and then easily divide half of the Tang Dynasty along the Yangtze River, or he can transport troops to the Wa Kingdom, take Shandong from Denglai and so on, and then attack the Heluo area, and he can also repeat the old tricks, go to Tubo, directly attack Guanzhong from Songzhou, and even take the ancient tea horse road and attack Hanzhong from Jiange.

Or Li Jie simply came out in five ways, anyway, he has plenty of chips in his hand!

After discussing for a long time, the ministers of Chang'an had to come up with a stupid solution, the Tang army in Haidong was fully withdrawn, and the heavy troops were guarded in Guanzhong, and no matter what Li Jie attacked from any direction, the Tang army could still be pushed out of Guanzhong as Qin Shi Huang destroyed the Six Kingdoms.

In this era, only the center is the foundation of the world!

With Guanzhong as the bow and 400,000 Datang main forces as arrows, once the world changes, Li Zhi can shoot to any position in Datang with his bow.

War is always accompanied by politics, after the war strategy was set, Li Zhi once again appointed Zhongshu Shilang Shangguanyi as an envoy to envoy and win over Tubo, once Tubo stood on his side, the fastest passage for the Min and Tang Dynasties to attack Chang'an would be blocked.

In addition, the envoys of the Tang Dynasty also scattered from Chang'an like bees out of the nest, and the Wuyuan Turks, Tiele, Xue Yantuo, Khitan, and Heishui Yan all received orders from King Li Zhiqin.

It's a pity that Li Zhi's popularity is obviously not as good as Li Jie, and there are very few applicants, but he follows behind Datang and takes advantage of the fire to rob.

Under the city of Liaodong, carrying a big flag on his shoulders, the main force of the Tang Dynasty was like a black dragon, constantly spraying out of the scarred gate of Liaodong City, and then going all the way to the west.

Looking back at the scarred city still hanging at the head of the Tang Dynasty banner hanging weakly, Tang Xiujing couldn't help but sigh with emotion, first Li Ji, then Cheng Mingzhen, Pang Xiaotai, and finally himself, four generations of Liao Shuai have worked hard for more than ten years, which has led to such results in Liaodong, in the fertile Liaohe Plain, the agricultural reclamation team organized by the imperial court has opened up a considerable piece of land, as well as the area of Huanglongfu, it is also a rare time, maybe this will be not lost in Guanzhong's fertile fields, but now, a yellow life, More than a decade of hard work has been in vain.

Two-thirds of the Liaodong Kingdom and Pyongyang, the capital of Goguryeo, were all abandoned, and Tang Xiujing saw the Silla people running under his horse's hooves a few days ago like rabbits following the steps of the Tang army, the Tang army gave up a walled city, and these shameless Silla people occupied a walled city, Tang Xiujing's heart was like a knife, and he wanted to turn around and cut these shameless people into slag with the horizontal knife in his hand.

Liaodong is also similar, the Khitans who have been suppressed by the Goguryeo nobility have encroached on the blank left by the retreat of the Tang army, and even now, there are still tens of thousands of Khitans lurking near Liaodong City to peep.

After the main force of the Tang army retreated, there were only about 20,000 battalion soldiers in these territories to defend them, and the huge Liaohe River valley was scattered, even if the Liaodong city was strong, there were only more than 4,000 defenders, and with such a small number of troops, I don't know how long it could hold out under the eyes of the wolves.

All this could have been avoided, anyway, the king of Min ruled not the Central Plains, he was willing to be called the emperor, let him be called him, there is one more brother state, and one more support.

It's a pity that no one can resist the emperor's will, and the identity of the soldier also made Tang Xiujing dare not say more about it, and finally looked back at the splendid Liaodong under the sunset, and sighed again, Tang Xiujing also rode on the horse, and merged into the rolling army without looking back, in this life, he never had the opportunity to set foot in Liaodong again.

Fortunately, most of the main force of the Tang army were officers and soldiers from the various Zhechong prefectures in Heluo, Guanzhong, and returning to Guanzhong was equivalent to going home, although the order of the military department was quite urgent, and the main force of the Tang army returned to Guanzhong within three months from the northeast to the south, and then went up the Yellow River.

100,000 people guarded Heluo, 80,000 troops stationed in Liangzhou, 50,000 people went out of the town of Tongguan, 70,000 people guarded Wuguan to guard against the possible Fujian and Tang armies in the southern direction of the Bashu Jian, and the rest were to sit in Chang'an and stop the army.

Although they rushed back to their hometown with joy in exchange for not disbanding and returning to their hometown, the main force of the Tang army that continued to fight was full of complaints, but Li Zhi and the eunuch group who firmly controlled Guanzhong, the Guanlong family was relieved.

The overall situation of the world has been arranged, and the next thing is to wait for Li Jie to make a move.

Just when Li Zhi's eyes were still inspecting the Central Plains, the prelude to this earth-shattering battle was in the northeast corner of the empire, and a small Broken Leaf City broke out.

Broken Leaf Town is the farthest border town on the western border of the Tang Dynasty, here has been out of the Green Ridge, straight to the future Kyrgyzstan capital near Tokmak, the strategic location is extremely important, when the Western Turkic Khan to the Tang Dynasty to procure, cut Qiuzi, Shule, Khotan, Green Ridge, Zhu Gupo five countries for the dowry, began the Tang Dynasty rule era, so Zhenguan set up the Broken Leaf Town here, in history, the real construction of the Broken Leaf City but have to wait for more than 30 years later when the Anxi Protector Wang Fangyi to start.

However, in this time and space, Wang Fangyi was also abducted and taken away by Li Jie, although because of the border of the river in the Fujian and Tang Dynasties, which made Broken Leaf Town important, but the construction of the city wall here has never been as grand as in history, and it is not like a large number of immigrants from the Central Plains who lived here in history, and the poet Li Bai was born.

Today, only a few hundred Tang soldiers and more than 2,000 other local ethnic defenders recruited by the Protectorate of Anxidu are guarding here.

Although the town of Broken Leaves is small, it is a major town on the Silk Road in the Western Regions, and a large number of caravans from Sogdia and Tocharian pass through here every year, which makes the city's tax revenue quite nourishing, so although it is close to the frontier border, the defenders of the Protectorate of the Rest of the Kingdom are still willing to come here to defend it, but recently, this road has been much stranger.

As if he had been abandoned and forgotten, for more than three months, not to mention the caravan, he didn't even see a personal shadow again, so that the soldiers who were guarding the rest of the capital here couldn't help but hang their heads.

"Hey, Lao Tang, you say, isn't that side, what are you doing again, you won't use this road in the future, right?"

Blowing the spicy continental wind, half of his face was covered with a scarf, and the guard surnamed Li couldn't help but stab another guard surnamed Tang next to him.

The guard surnamed Tang was fair-skinned and had a very different appearance, but he was a turtle man, and listening to the question of the guard surnamed Li, he yawned indifferently.

"I know where to go, and if I could, I wouldn't be a soldier here, but a general over there."

Obviously dissatisfied with his companion's answer, the guard surnamed Li muttered again and again.

"If I hadn't heard that the treatment here is good, I wouldn't have been able to travel all the way from Guazhou to here, hey~ I originally wanted to make some money and go back to marry Ayina, now it's okay, I guess when I save enough money to go back, Ayina's baby can make soy sauce!"

The guard surnamed Tang is an elite soldier who has really killed people in battle, and he was a sand bandit in his early years, he is much more free and easy than the guard surnamed Li, and he buys wine and meat with a little money, so he can't stand the broken thoughts of the guard surnamed Li, just raised his hand and wanted to give this goods a hand, but he was cold, his hand froze in mid-air, and then he fell to the ground suddenly, and put his ear on the hot sand.

"Don't make a sound, someone's coming!"

"Really? It's finally time for the caravan! This month's salary has landed again! ”

It was simply ecstatic, the guard surnamed Li didn't wait for the guard surnamed Tang to get up, he had already rushed forward excitedly, and the panicked man surnamed Tang hurriedly shouted behind him: "Come back!"

Ran out of dozens of steps, the guard surnamed Li, who was full of excitement, froze there, as if he was stupid, this person turned around in shock, Leng's companion, without waiting for the sand guard to greet him, more than a dozen powerful bows and arrows had pierced in and out from behind him.

The hot blood squirted onto the hot wilderness.

Without looking again, the sand guard turned around and ran towards the door, and at the same time hurriedly pulled up the drawbridge, and his companion, who was a second or two slower than his reaction, also fell in a pool of blood at this time, and in the crunching and unpleasant sound, the drawbridge was erected high, and at the same time, more than a dozen city gate guards helped to close the city gate fiercely, locking it, and a fluttering sound came from behind him, which was the sound of arrows nailing to the door panel.

After escaping death several times, the relieved sand guards ran up to the city wall, but at first glance, he had a picture that he will never forget.

In front of the city, more than a hundred elite cavalry who robbed the city shouted and cursed angrily, and a black line quickly covered the entire land on the horizon about a kilometer behind them.

All of them were people, people from all ethnic groups, men and women, leading sheepdogs, driving cattle and sheep, and it was impossible to count how many people and tribes there were.

When he was dizzy, the sand guards were dumbfounded for more than a minute before they heard a trilling sound behind them.

"Horse, immediately light the wolf smoke, send cavalry, and quickly report to the capital of Anxi!"
