Chapter 517 Reinforcement of Yizhou
"We provoked it? Is Li Hao crazy?"
"Li Hao also has no choice, because the emperor needs him to threaten the border of Tubo, so that Tubo retreats Tuyuhun. But I never expected that this stalemate lasted for so long."
The corner of Li Daoxing's mouth twitched, it was his own emperor who had been doing it for a long time.
As a person who is afraid of death, he is considering whether to run back to Chang'an. After some understanding of the country of Tubo, he knows a lot of things. The strength of Tubo is definitely not simple.
This so-called alliance is even more frightening, that is, the gathering of leaders from various places in Tubo. If it is really for Li Hao, the number of troops will probably exceed 20.
This is definitely a terrible number. According to the news, there are only nearly 10 people on my side.
He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "It seems that I have to report to the emperor. If something happens to Nanzhao, the consequences will be disastrous."
If it is more serious, not only Tubo will invade, but even Nanzhao, who has just arrived, will rebel.
In the Tai Chi Hall of Chang'an City, Li Shimin looked at the information in his hand, and his face, which was originally full of smiles, suddenly became gloomy.
"Bastard, Songtsan Gampo has great ambitions!" He threw the memorial in his hand on the table, stood up abruptly, and startled everyone with a fierce look on his face.
This is in the upper court, and the emperor has been so disrespectful, which has never happened before.
Wei Zheng, who had always been looking for trouble with Li Shimin, looked directly at the sky this time, as if he didn't see or hear anything.
Although he likes to make trouble, he also knows what kind of trouble to look for and when to seek death.
In the current situation, to manage these things is courting death.
Changsun Wuji didn't look sideways, he seemed to be listening carefully, but he didn't have the slightest intention to speak.Cheng Yaojin's eyes widened with anger, but he also kept silent, for fear that the horse's leg would be hit by his flattery.
"Your Majesty, what happened?" Fang Xuanling sighed and stood up, saying in a deep voice.
As the right servant, he can be regarded as the head of the hundred officials. At this time, he must show something, otherwise the emperor will not be able to step down.
Li Shimin glanced at Cheng Yaojin and the others, and couldn't help but stare fiercely, these old fritters are useless at critical moments.
Glancing at Fang Xuanling appreciatively, he said in a cold voice: "There is news from the Taoyuan Kingdom that Tubo will meet in advance to concentrate their forces to destroy Li Hao first, and Li Hao has already gone to the front in person."
He didn't say clearly that this memorial was sent by his daughter Li Lizhi, but it was sent urgently after eight hundred miles, which shows the seriousness of the matter.
"An early alliance?"
The complexions of all the knowledgeable people changed drastically, and everyone was worried, especially Tang Jian's complexion was extremely pale.
"hateful!"
As the former chief of Honglu Temple, he naturally knew what the hell the Tubo League was, and that was to strengthen the connection between the various tribes in Tubo.This was nothing at all, but for Li Hao to join the alliance in advance, the problem would be big.
Damn, this is trying to kill Li Hao first.
He couldn't help standing up, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, it is very important for Tubo to meet in advance. Songtsan Gampo is very ambitious. I am afraid that he wants to defeat Li Hao in one fell swoop, and then compete with us for Tuyuhun with all his strength."
Datang's method was a conspiracy to make Tubo feel scruples. It is impossible for Songtsan Gampo to be ignorant of this issue.
Now that the alliance is held in advance, I am afraid that Li Hao must be defeated first, and then Tubo will no longer have to worry about the future, and will wholeheartedly compete with Datang for Tuyuhun's interests.
"Tang Aiqing's words are reasonable, and this is what I am worried about."
Li Shimin nodded slightly, he was also worried about this problem in his heart, if Li Hao was eliminated, it would be a big trouble for Datang.
At that time, Tubo can completely advance from Taoyuan Kingdom or Yizhou, and directly enter Datang.
However, Tuyuhun will definitely not be safe, and he may take the opportunity to deal with Datang, and if a chain reaction is caused, Datang will be in big trouble.
He was in a complicated mood now. He was worried that Li Hao was too strong before, but now he was a little worried that Li Hao was too weak to withstand Songtsan Gampo's attack, and he would be in big trouble.
"Li Junxian, is there any news that Tubo will meet in advance?" He looked at Li Junxian who was on the side, and said in a deep voice.
As an emperor, it is impossible for him to listen to the wind and the rain. This matter still needs to be verified.
Li Junxian shook his head, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, there is no news of Tubo's alliance in advance, but according to the intelligence, Tubo is indeed mobilizing troops frequently, I'm afraid."
He didn't say the latter, because he was not qualified to judge the result, and if he guessed wrong, it would be irreparable.
Although he didn't say it clearly, everyone had their own judgments. I'm afraid the news was not false, and Tubo really had an alliance in advance.Otherwise, there is no need for Tubo to mobilize troops frequently.
There is only one reason for this, and that is to concentrate our forces and defeat Li Hao in one fell swoop.
Then, with lightning speed, threatened Datang Taoyuan Kingdom, Yizhou and other places, and then Datang would be in trouble.
Li Shimin frowned, and said in a deep voice, "What's your opinion, dear friends?"
"Your Majesty, there must be no problems with Li Hao. It may be too late to reinforce Taoyuan Kingdom. The only way is to let Li Jing attack Tuyuhun, or even directly attack Tubo. Only in this way can Tubo be wary!"
After Changsun Wuji thought for a while, he said in a deep voice.
"Just attacking Tuyuhun is not enough, we can't guarantee that Tubo will take risks!"
At this time, the young Ma Zhou also stood up and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Nanzhao must not be lost. This place is of great importance. After occupying this place, Tubo can attack our Datang Yizhou and Taoyuan Kingdom at any time. This is really great for Datang. It's deadly."
"Nanzhao must be preserved, and it is unrealistic to increase troops from Taoyuan Kingdom."
"Taoyuan Kingdom is originally a remote area, and the route is difficult to walk, and the marching speed is too slow. Instead of increasing troops to Taoyuan Kingdom, it is better to increase troops to Yizhou. When the time comes to cut off Tubo from Nanzhao, it can also threaten Tubo."
When everyone heard it, they were convinced that Taoyuan Kingdom was too far away.
Besides, even if you get reinforcements and arrive in Taoyuan Kingdom, so what, the battlefield has to cross Nanzhao and enter the Tubo border, and you can't fly there.
The only way is to reinforce Yizhou.
From Yizhou, you can enter Nanzhao's defense, and you can also attack from Songzhou, which will make Tubo fearful, and you can even support Li Jing and others.
Li Shimin was overjoyed and praised: "Aiqing is right. This matter should not be delayed. It must be done immediately. Let Duan Zhixuan set off from Yizhou Mansion to mobilize troops to reinforce the border of Nanzhao, and support Nanzhao when necessary. Nanzhao Absolutely must not lose."
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Everyone deeply believed that Nanzhao must not be lost, and if it was lost, it would not be a loss.
Nanzhao had just been attached to it. If it was defeated by Tubo at this time, I am afraid that Nanzhao would not belong to the Tang Dynasty again from now on. This is absolutely impossible.
Murderous intent flickered in Li Shimin's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Tuban is not a thief, let Li Hao act cheaply, and withdraw from Tubo if necessary. This war is of great importance, and he is allowed to recruit troops on the spot to defend Tubo.
In addition, 500 million guns will be allocated to Li Hao, and enough equipment and materials will be given to him. Li Hao must keep Nanzhao.
At the same time, Li Jing was ordered to attack Tuyuhun immediately, so that Tubo could not attack Li Hao with all his strength, and allowed him to directly fight against Tubo after destroying Tuyuhun. There must be no mistakes! "
