Chapter 2036 Achilles heel(1/2)
After the news reached Chang'an, the people of Chang'an could not calm down. This was not the topic of conversation after dinner, because Tuyuhun was a little too close to Guanzhong, and it was Guanzhong. Moreover, Liangzhou would definitely not be able to operate, and all trade would have to be stopped. In addition, Tubo was fighting with the country, which was very different from the Lu Dongzan period. Qinling didn't even look for an excuse, and the implication was that he would not give up until he achieved his goal.
The key is that you don’t know what his ultimate goal is, whether to unify the plateau or settle in the Central Plains.
But there was one person who was very excited.
This person is Yuanjiu!
The beast garden!
"Fighting! Fighting!"
Yuanjiu was extremely excited and said to Han Yi again: "It's our turn to play this time."
Han Yi rolled his eyes and said, "I said, Master Yuanbao, can you have some ambition? I'm talking about a large platform. Is it necessary to ask you to do a small-scale battle? Wang Fangyi and the others can settle it!"
Yuanjiu swallowed and said, "Is this a small scale?"
Han Yi said: "Of course it was not small in the Zhenguan period, but now, with the strength of the Tang Dynasty, it is definitely a small scale. Don't worry, don't worry, wait a little longer, the platform is still under construction, you should be at ease and take good care of your body."
Even Yuanjiu, who was so heartbroken, began to sweat coldly at this moment, "What are you planning to do?"
Han Yi laughed.
This demonic laughter finally made Yuanjiu feel a little scared and even regretful. It seemed like he was a little bit bigger.
.
Heyuan area.
Wang Xuance's only 20,000 troops could not resist the extremely shameless sudden attack of Tubo, and the Heyuan area was eventually completely lost, but Qinling was extremely angry at the opening battle.
"Wang Xuance, Wang Xuance, if you fall into my hands in the future, I will definitely tear you into pieces."
Qin Ling angrily kicked Wang Xuance's dining table away.
Although they won and took over the entire Heyuan area, they were far less relaxed than he thought. Wang Xuance led his troops to resist tenaciously, using the terrain to block the most fierce attack in Tubo, and actually won precious retreat time for the people of Heyuan. In the end, although Wang Xuance's troops suffered heavy losses, what he allowed Tubo to get was a wasteland. The people in the Heyuan area took away all their horses, such as cattle, sheep, fields, and houses, which could not be taken away, were burned to pieces, and the prosperous Heyuan area instantly became depressed.
Wang Xuance finally led half of the soldiers to retreat.
This made Qin Ling very angry.
Fortunately, Wang Fangyi left, otherwise he might not have been able to occupy the Heyuan area immediately.
Tubo suffered a lot in front of this pair of kings. Qin Ling hated this pair of kings very much.
However, the situation was still very beneficial to him, because the Tang army responded hastily and had no preparations.
"Report! General, Su Dingfang, and Zhao Chiman led Liangzhou soldiers to Tuyuhun for rescue."
"Come on! Come on! Come on."
Qin Ling sneered and said, "I want them to go back and forth, and to wipe out their main force on this plateau. In this way, the Central Plains are at your fingertips. Immediately order the army to advance at full speed. We must push the front line to Dafeichuan before the troops of Liangzhou have gained a foothold."
"Affect the order."
.
.
In the Tang army's tent.
"Immediately, order Pei Xingjian to lead the Great Protectorate, and the troops of Khotan attack Tubo from the west."
"Here!"
"Cough cough, General Qibi, immediately order people to go to Beiting, Xizhou to collect troops, and attack Tubo from Shicheng Town. Tubo concentrates all his troops in Tuyuhun, and the rest of the places must be empty. To relieve the danger of Tuyuhun, they must first disperse their troops."
"Affect the order."
Qi Bi Heli clasped his fists and asked again: "Sikong, your body."
"Not worry."
Li Ji waved his hand, but the more violent he coughed.
.
Ministry of Revenue!
"I reminded you several times before that the treasury is empty and there is no emergency food. You just don't believe it. Now that the treasury can not take out so much food to support the army to go to war!"
Zhang Daxiang was almost crazy, and his inner insecurity immediately burst out.
Han Yi said angrily: "But you didn't say at that time that Tubo would attack so shamelessly, and now it's useless to say that these are no longer useful. And the situation is not as serious as you imagined. Shazhou, Liangzhou, and Shanzhou all have military farms, and there is sufficient food there, which can temporarily guarantee the supply of our army in Tuyuhun. In addition, there is no food in Taicang, and the warehouses in Luoyang and Bianzhou have sufficient food. You should send someone to transport the food there to Chang'an."
"I'll go now, I'll go now."
Zhang Daxiang said as she stomped her feet hard, and then ran out.
Han Yi smiled and murmured to himself: "It's true, if the treasury has food, what's the point of playing with it?"
.
Xiao Mansion.
"It's unreasonable, it's unreasonable. The Tubo people are really despicable and shameless. They even fought undeclaredly. If His Majesty allows me to lead my troops, I will definitely beat them to pieces."
"The child is willing to go with his mother."
Han Xuanpin shouted excitedly.
Xiao Wuyi glanced at his son with a squint eyes and said, "You little brat are playing with mud."
"Don't yell here, either."
Yuan Mudan looked at Han Yi again and said, "Husband, I just came out of the Yuan Family Fort. If the court needs it, our Yuan Family is willing to help us."
Han Yi nodded and said, "No need yet. It's just Tubo. They can afford it. Will we not be able to afford it? Let's wait and see."
Xiao Wuyi said: "Husband, this time I will never make peace with the untrustworthy Tubo. I must fight them to the end. Even if we lose everything, we will do whatever we want."
Han Yi raised his lips and said, "Of course."
.
.
"Driving!"
Compared with the caravans in the past, at this moment, the ones walking on the Silk Road were riding fast horses.
Northwest Protectorate.
"It's outrageous. Qinling is really a villain."
Pei Xingjian received a letter from Li Ji, angrily slapped the letter on the table and immediately ordered: "Correate troops immediately and follow me to attack Tubo."
"Here!"
Pei Xingjian is very skilled and brave, but he is still very calm. He and Tubo are not fighting each other.
But as soon as the order was gone, an urgent report came from the west.
"Reporting to the Great Protector, an urgent letter came from Tocharo. Dashi suddenly attacked them from the northwest, hoping that we could go to rescue."
Pei Xingjian blinked and said in surprise: "Dashi?"
.
Tiele, Uighur tribe.
"Brother, Tubo sent troops, and Tubo started a war with the Tang Dynasty. It seems that the boy Qinling did not lie to us."
A big man with his left arm and bearded face entered the tent and laughed happily.
I saw a bald man sitting in the tent. This man was Bisu Du, the chief of the Uighur tribe. The one who just came in was his half-brother, Chagan. In addition, there was another person sitting next to him, who was Li Jinzhong, who was wanted by the Tang Dynasty.
Bisu Du said: "How many troops did Tubo mobilize?"
"At least an army of 200,000."
Chagan said, "It can be said that it is a great power to dominate the country. Brother, we have to make a decision now. Tongluo, Pugu and other ministries are all waiting for your orders!"
Li Jinzhong hurriedly said, "Khan, this is a god-given opportunity to restore the hegemony of the Turks. If you give up, you will sooner or later be like me in the future. The cunning people of the Central Plains will not remember our help to them."
"Don't worry, things have come to this point, why don't I understand how they are playing tricks?" Bi Su Du sneered and said, "It was the Tang Dynasty who was playing conspiracies first, so don't blame us for being unrighteous. By the way, I'll ask you to inquire about the rumors from the Martin side, can there be any news?"
Cha Gan smiled and said, "They are so scared now. I think as long as we rebel, they will definitely rebel."
Bi Su Du smiled and said, "Since that's the case, what else can you say? It's time for us to avenge our shame!"
.
Li Ji issued orders one after another, but received a series of urgent letters.
The Dashi suddenly launched an invasion, and the Western Regions were all vassal states. If they did not go to rescue, they might all turn to Dashi. Dashi could attack the Dadu Protectorate in an instant, resulting in Pei Xingjian having to give up cooperating with Li Ji to attack Tubo, and led only 3,000 soldiers to resist the Dashi's invasion, because there was no time to recruit more troops for him.
At the same time, the nine surnames of Tiele raised an army to rebel against the Tang Dynasty, and executed all the Tang officials of the Anbei Protectorate's Office, and claimed to be a 100,000 troops, and sent troops to Beiting.
Not only did Li Ji not recruit elite troops from Beiting, he also forced him to send Qibing Heli to order 20,000 troops to Beiting for rescue. If Beiting was lost, their army would face an enemy from both sides, which was quite dangerous.
The main force of the Tang army had just arrived at the battlefield, and this person was stunned. Why did so many enemies suddenly appear? Where should we go to fight? The Tang army was panicked!
For a moment, war broke out in the whole of Asia!
