Chapter 68: The Turkic soldiers are under the city of Chang'an
And so it was, and two days passed.
On this day, the flow of people in Ye Ping's tavern bottomed out again, and no one came here to drink or eat.
The pedestrians on the street were in a hurry, and they didn't know what they were doing.
Moreover, he also saw many people carrying their bags to leave Chang'an City.
At the same time, the frequency of Wuhou is getting higher and higher.
A large number of troops entered and exited the city of Chang'an.
In addition, some of the guards around the area have also been drained away.
There were five or six people guarding the tavern, but now it was reduced to one watching.
In addition, the Wang family and the Cui family also began to migrate outside Chang'an City, and their destination was the south.
These business people are very sensitive to this kind of thing.
When the time is bad, they will leave, and when the time is settled, they will return and return to their old jobs.
He knew that something big had to happen.
So he asked Xue Rengui to go out to find out the news.
At this time, Xue Rengui also returned.
"How? What happened inside Chang'an City? ”
Ye Ping asked as soon as he came.
Xue Rengui's brows furrowed.
said: "It's the Turks, who have come to Weishui at this time, and now that the whole Chang'an is under martial law, a large number of people can't get out, and they can't get in." ”
Xue Rengui was a little worried.
But the big family can, they must have spent money.
Li Shimin is not stupid, let these people go if they can, and make some money before leaving, why not.
When Ye Ping heard this, he suddenly realized.
It turned out to be like this, because Li Shimin had just ascended the throne. After learning of the change of power in the Tang Empire, Jieli Khan sent more than 100,000 troops to attack Jingzhou in the south, and then advanced all the way to Wugong, Chang'an was threatened, so martial law was imposed.
Later, Li Shimin sent the brave general Chi Jingde, as the head of the Jingzhou Road march, to arrive in Jingyang to defend against the Turks. After Wei Chi Jingde arrived at the front line, he immediately organized a counterattack and fought a fierce battle with the Turkic army in Jingyang, Yu Chi Jingde was unstoppable, captured the enemy general Ashdewu Wu Si, and killed more than 1,000 Turkic cavalry. A small victory was achieved, but it did not stop the advance of the main Turkic forces.
At this time, their main force had reached the north bank of Weishui.
It is infinitely closer to Chang'an City.
If they are allowed to enter Chang'an City, then the Tang Dynasty will change the dynasty.
And will cease to exist in history.
However, the current Li Shimin's troops are seriously insufficient, otherwise how could he not be able to resist the Turkic army?
"Brother Ye, why don't we leave Chang'an too? A place of stability? ”
Xue Rengui persuaded so.
It's not that he's greedy for life and afraid of death, it's that he still has a mother to take care of.
He was also concerned about Ye Ping's safety, otherwise he would not have said such a thing.
Ye Ping said: "No need, this catastrophe will pass!" Our time will come. ”
You can't leave at this time, why not make a big profit while you're in chaos?
"Now the Turks are also about to march to Chang'an, and now the whole Chang'an is panicking, if you don't leave, I'm afraid there will be no time. Big brother, I'm worried about your safety, just listen to me this time! ”
"The Turks can't make any big waves, don't worry, within three days, the Turkic soldiers will retreat!"
Xue Rengui was shocked, where did this Ye Ping get the confidence to know that the Turks would withdraw in three days?
"Three days? I'm afraid it won't work, I don't think I can go without three months, maybe even three years! And I'm worried...... Datang will ......"
Xue Rengui said half of his words, and then stopped talking, after all, if people knew about it, it might cause death.
"When I say three days, it's three days, and you'll see."
Xue Rengui wanted to say something more, but seeing that Ye Ping was so resolute, he had no choice but to give up.
Why did Ye Ping guess for three days, because he knew that at this time, Li Shimin was already as anxious as an ant in a hot pot.
The message he can receive is a message of a higher level.
It was not easy for him to become the emperor, and he encountered the great event of the Turks.
He was so anxious that he couldn't say anything, and he was even more unhappy in his heart.
The current Datang is just after the internal troubles, and the external troubles are coming again.
Why is he so uneasy to become an emperor.
At the same time, his team had just been formed, and none of their strategies were used.
Either attack or retreat.
How to do it? Retreating is equivalent to giving up the country to others, and no one is reconciled.
Therefore, he immediately thought of Ye Ping.
At this time, he also arrived outside Ye Ping's tavern and was about to ask for help.
He walked ahead.
And Fang Xuanling and Cheng Yanjin were on the left and right, and they followed Li Shimin.
At this time, Fang Xuanling first said: "Your Majesty, let's let the ministers discuss this Turkic matter, what does he know as a tavern owner?" ”
"Xuan Ling, when you say this, I don't like to hear it. Didn't you do what he asked you to do last time? Now the arrogance of the Wang family has also disappeared a lot, which should be thanks to him! ”
The salt incident last time really made Fang Xuanling out of the limelight.
It also made the Wang family very obedient.
Fang Xuanling ignored Cheng biting Jin, but continued: "It's better to let Wuji return, he has a heavy army, and once he returns, he will definitely make the Turks retreat!" ”
"Xuanling, when is Wuji's return, Yuanshui can't save Jinhuo, what are you thinking?"
Li Shimin said.
"That's much better than this surnamed Ye, what can he do?"
Fang Xuanling is still very resentful, what happened last time made him very unhappy, and this time he said that he would stop Li Shimin from coming here to beg Ye Ping.
Moreover, if an emperor comes to beg the commoners, if he says this, I am afraid that he will be ridiculed by the world.
"Okay, don't say it, I think he can do it, he can do it, if you say it again, I won't be happy!"
Li Shimin was a little unhappy.
"But Your Majesty, this ......"
"If I had a way, I would still come here to beg for help?"
Li Shimin said helplessly.
Fang Xuanling said this without saying a word.
Li Shimin then said: "Also, what do the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty do to eat, and I can't think of any good way after thinking about it for a day and a night, which really disappoints me!" ”
It seems that they haven't slept well in the past few days.
Just thinking about how to deal with the Turks, no one slept well.
There aren't too many troops in this Chang'an City, so what can they do?
Now that the soldiers are coming to the city, they can't do anything.
Looking at Li Shimin's somewhat tired expression, he could feel that he really had no choice this time.
Fang Xuanling: ......
"Xuan Ling, let's go, the shopkeeper will close the door again in a while, he has closed the door early in the past few days, don't find no one by then."
After that, Cheng Yanjin followed Li Shimin.
Fang Xuanling only sighed on the side.
"Hey...... This...... How can this national event be such a child's play!? ”
After that, he also followed.
