Chapter 540: Choice
The time of the three-year big competition is approaching, but there is no news from Liang and Qi.
Honglu Siqing felt strange and brought up the matter in the court.
And after this matter was raised, the ministers discussed a lot, and it was also incomprehensible.
"Holy Lord, could it be that there is any conspiracy between these two countries?"
"If they want to use troops against our Tang Kingdom, they will naturally not use our Tang Kingdom for a three-year competition."
"Yes, if that's the case, we have to be careful......"
As the ministers spoke, Li Yuan's brows condensed slightly, and at this time, Li Yu stood up, "Father, the emperor can rest assured, the Liang State and the Qi State will soon send people to conduct the Three Kingdoms Competition." ”
Li Yu said yes, the ministers were puzzled, Li Yuan was also curious, and asked, "Why?" ”
Li Yu said, "The reason why Liang and Qi did not send troops to come, just want to know whether I can hold the Turkic attack, if not, the Turkic army invades, they Liang will also be bound to use troops against our Tang State, but if they hold it, their two countries are equal to our Tang State, and they dare not do it easily, and they will naturally come to our Tang State at that time." ”
If the Turks and Liang and Qi use troops against Tang at the same time, Tang will naturally not be able to hold it, and sooner or later it will be destroyed, but Liang and Qi are not only around Tang, for example, Liang, their northeast corner is relatively strong, and there is Jin, and there is Goryeo across the sea, these have always been eyeing Liang, if Liang is using troops with Tang, Jin is afraid that the iron cavalry of Jin will immediately attack Liang.
On the side of Qi State, he has not let much.
Therefore, before they are sure of annexing the Tang State as quickly as possible, the people of the two countries will not take the Tang State lightly.
On the contrary, if the three countries of them form a group, they are the most powerful forces in the northern part of the Central Plains, and the Turks do not dare to move them easily, even the countries of the Central Plains have to weigh and weigh.
After Li Yu finished speaking, the ministers understood what was going on, it turned out that the Turkic attack was coming.
"King Yongde, you are so confident, you will definitely be able to hold the Turkic attack?"
"Yes, there are only 10,000 soldiers and horses at the Bitou Pass, and more than 30,000 Turks, which is not easy to defend."
"It's better for us to plan ahead."
"Why don't you send troops to help......"
Everyone, you and I said it word by word, Li Yuan also looked at Li Yu curiously, but Li Yu was not in a hurry, and said, "Everyone rest assured, there is a fierce general in the side of the pass, and Huang Liang as a military advisor, you can definitely defend it." ”
"Huang Liang, but Huang Liang, the son of the emperor?"
"How could he be willing to go to the town?"
Everyone was surprised, because they all knew very well that Huang Liang, the son of the emperor, although he was the prefect of Yingzhou, was not a nosy person, and if it wasn't someone worthy of his help, he would definitely not help.
Now that he is helping Li Yu to guard the bias pass, does he think that Li Yu can become the prince again?
Or is Yingzhou too close to the partial head pass, and he is afraid of harming the pond fish, so he helps?
Everyone was very curious, but the nervous heart just now gradually relaxed, because of Huang Liang's words, the bias pass might really be able to hold on.
The early dynasty ended quickly, and after Li Yu left the early dynasty, he took Xiong Kuohai and Yu Chi Baolin to the Yongde palace given to him by Li Shimin.
The Yongde Mansion in the capital is a little smaller in comparison, after all, in this place in the capital, every inch of land is expensive, even his father and emperor can't get much of a mansion.
But for Li Yu today, it is enough.
--------------------
The weather is hot, and it is even more uncomfortable to be here, in addition to being uncomfortable, the smell of blood sometimes makes them want to vomit.
Since that night's attack on the camp, the Turks have attacked the Biaotou Pass three times in succession.
But what the Turks didn't expect was that the defense was not very strict before, but after the attack on the camp that night, it became impregnable, and they rushed desperately, but they couldn't attack the partial pass.
Not only could they not attack the partial pass, but the more they attacked the partial pass, the more heavy the casualties became, and now they did not even have enough 20,000 soldiers and horses.
The most important thing is that when they came to attack the Yatou Pass, they did not bring a lot of grain and grass, and it would not be long before they ran out of grain and grass.
In addition to this, they found that many of their soldiers began to get sick.
The Turkic leader frowned.
"What's going on, good manners, why are you all starting to get sick?"
"General, we don't know, now we are soft, and it is very itchy."
The Turkic general sent someone to investigate, and on the side of the head pass, Huang Liang was coughing hard.
"Lord Huang is really powerful, according to your arrangement, the Turks really can't attack now, and those Turks are sick, if they don't go back, they will only die here."
Wei Chigong said excitedly, since he saw Huang Liang's power, now he can be said to be obedient to Huang Liang, Huang Liang coughed a few times, and then thought, "Before tomorrow, the Turks will be evacuated." ”
"Really?" Wei Chigong's eyes widened, he didn't think that Huang Liang even knew when the Turks would evacuate.
Huang Liang nodded, "They can't attack the Partial Pass for a long time, it's useless to continue to consume it, their food and grass are not enough, and the most important thing is that the moat outside the Partial Pass was drugged by me, they drank the water in it, they are all sick, their combat effectiveness will become weaker and weaker, if they don't want to die, they can only retreat." ”
Hearing that there was medicine in the moat, Wei Chigong suddenly realized, no wonder the Turks were sick, he looked at Huang Liang, a sick man, and was secretly shocked in his heart, thinking that he should not offend this person in the future, otherwise when he would make a stumbling block for himself, then he would definitely not be his opponent.
People who have been ill for a long time will have some understanding of any medicine, and Huang Liang is such a person.
After he finished talking to Wei Chigong, he asked Wei Chigong to go down and wait for news.
However, Wei Chi Gong did not wait too long, and the next morning, when the sun shone on the side of the head, a soldier hurriedly ran over, "General Wei Chi, the Turks have withdrawn, the Turks have withdrawn, the Turks have withdrawn......"
"Really retired, this Huang Liang is really like a god."
Wei Chigong breathed a sigh of relief, and then immediately sent a message to Li Mochou in Shuozhou, Li Mochou here, naturally, also quickly sent a message to Li Yu Feige, telling him that the Turks had withdrawn, in addition, he also sent people to the capital to deliver the news, but in comparison, Li Yu must have been the first to get the news.
In the capital, at dusk, when the sunset was about to set in the distance, Li Yu received Li Mochou's letter, and after reading the letter, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Li Yu's mouth.
The Turks have withdrawn, and the envoys of Liang and Qi should come soon, they have no choice.
