Chapter 733: Youzhou Changed Hands Again (5) (2nd Update)

"Collusion with foreign enemies? What if I tell you that I have people sell some unused horizontal knives, spears, and armor to the king of Dongxi, Turus, and the black chariot Murowei? ”

Li Ye said with a smile.

"Your Majesty..."

Zheng Congyan was a little anxious, but as soon as he spoke, he was stopped by Li Ye.

"Zheng Guogong, I know what you're worried about, but it's not a ploy. Do you know which is the most powerful tribe outside the Cyprus today? Li Ye asked.

"It should be Khitan, right? It is said that its eight tribes have more than 200,000 tents, and their strength should not be underestimated! Now that the Xi people are in decline, the Khitan should be the most powerful Cypriot race. Li Sizhou said first.

"King Qin has done some homework." Li Ye praised it, and then continued, "It's indeed Khitan.

If the Khitan is allowed to continue to sit large, it will become a big disaster on the northern border of our Tang Dynasty, and maybe it may be the next Goguryeo, even stronger than Goguryeo. ”

"So Your Majesty supported King Dongxi and Heichezi Murowei just to contain the Khitan?" Zheng Congyan guessed.

"That's pretty much it, but it's more than that." Li Ye smiled faintly, "Containing the Khitan is only one of them, and there is also the consideration of taking the opportunity to weaken the strength of several major tribes."

Whether it is the Khitan, the Xi people, or the black car Murowei, they are all threats to the northern border of the Tang Dynasty.

The king of Dongxi, Tules, changed his father's style and wanted to get Dongxi out of the control of the Khitan; The black car has a dispute with the Khitan.

If the Khitan wants to unify the outside world, they will inevitably use force to conquer it. If King Dongxi and Heichezi Murowei were too weak, they would naturally not be able to effectively contain the Khitan.

Let them fight on their own first, and then wait for the court to free up their hands, and then go and clean them up one by one.

However, the immediate priority is to solve the problem of Heliendor and his son.

Pei Aiqing, take the order. ”

"The minister is here!"

Pei Rong hurriedly got up and came to Li Ye to salute.

"Feng Li Hong is the commander of the camp in the west of Yunzhou, and leads the soldiers and horses under the jurisdiction of the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate; Feng Wang was built as the commander of the camp in the south of Yunzhou, and led the Zuo Tiance Army, Zuo Yulin Army, Hedong Province and Hebei Province soldiers and horses.

This crusade is mainly cavalry, and the battle is as quick as possible, so don't delay it too long.

If it is successfully pacified, tell the two of them to find an opportunity to deter Liu Rengong, Dong Xi and Heiche Murowei. ”

"Command!" Pei Rong said loudly.

"Your Majesty, did you take the opportunity to settle the matter of the Yiwu Army?" Zheng Congyan reminded.

"Naturally, it's too early to wait for Helianduo to talk about this matter later." Li Ye smiled.

"Your Majesty, if you can successfully pacify Helian Duo this time and solve the Yiwu Army. In the northern feudal domains, there is only one town left in Lulong, and the solution to the chaos in the feudal towns will be just around the corner, and what the emperors before Your Majesty failed to accomplish will be realized in Your Majesty's hands. ”

Thinking of that situation, the elderly Zheng Congyan was a little excited.

"It's still early, thinking about the strength of the early Tang Dynasty, I still have a lot of things to do." Li Ye shook his head.

The current Datang can only be said to have recovered some vitality, but there is still a gap between restoring the strength of the Tang Dynasty.

If he is addicted to playing pleasure now, it is estimated that a good hand of cards will be played by him.

。。。。。。

Toyoshu, Anbei Prefecture.

After receiving the order from the imperial court, Li Hong ordered the assembly of the troops under his jurisdiction.

"In this battle, our Anbei Protectorate only dispatched cavalry, and the siege of the city was handed over to the Zuo Tiance army. Pei Deputy Duhu, how many cavalry can the Zuo Shenwei Army deploy? ”

Pei Shu replied, "Fifteen thousand cavalry can be dispatched, but it will take nearly ten days to assemble it." ”

Zuo Shenwei's army is not stationed in Fengzhou, but in Xiazhou and Lingzhou, and it does take time to notify and assemble again.

"Don't finish the transfer, 10,000 cavalry is enough." Li Hong thought for a while and said, "Pass the order, let the Lingzhou Governor's Mansion and the Xiazhou Governor's Mansion each send 4,000 cavalry, and the Fengzhou Governor's Mansion will send 3,000 cavalry."

Then 15,000 tribal cavalry were drawn from the various departments under the jurisdiction of the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate.

Deputy Li Duhu, it should be no problem for the party to transfer 10,000 cavalry, right? ”

Li Sijing hugged his fists and said, "Rest assured, if someone disobeys the conscription order of the Metropolitan Protector Mansion, the lower officials will definitely punish them severely." ”

Although the imperial court intended to suppress the party clan, it could not change that the party was the largest ethnic group in the Anbei Prefecture except for the Han people.

There are quite a few other tribes, but none of them are too strong.

After the establishment of the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate, Li Sijing was in Chang'an, and Li Sijing actually became the leader of the party clan.

Although he has no name, Li Sijing's words still have some deterrent effect among the party departments.

"With the words of Deputy Li Duhu, Bendu Hu will be relieved." Li Hong nodded, very satisfied with Li Sijing's attitude, "This time, the Bendu Protector will personally lead the troops, Deputy Li Duhu will follow, and Deputy Pei Duhu will be responsible for staying in the Duhu Mansion."

Within ten days, 35,000 cavalry must be assembled.

This is the first battle since the establishment of the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate, so the Bendu Protector hopes to have a big victory, and by the way, deter some foreign ethnic groups, so that they will not dare to offend my Datang. ”

"Please rest assured!"

Li Sijing and Pei Shu bent down and saluted, looking serious.

At the same time, Wang Jian, who was the commander of the camp in the south of Yunzhou, was also assembling a large army.

Unlike the Anbei Protectorate, which all attacked with cavalry, Wang Jian's side was much slower, and he mainly needed to dispatch infantry.

Unlike the 35,000 cavalry dispatched by the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate, Wang Jian's side only planned to dispatch 15,000 cavalry, plus 20,000 infantry, which was also 35,000 people, but it was a combination of infantry and cavalry.

Because of the protests of the household department, as long as the forbidden army without combat missions was reduced, even the Zuo Tiance army was not spared.

In this way, the forbidden army, as the main force of the field war, could not meet the needs of this expedition, and had to draw state troops from various states, which was even slower.

It's just that unlike the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate, there is no such thing as dispatching tribal warriors on Wang Jian's side.

While the imperial army was in full swing, the war on the side of the Yiwu army was also in full swing.

Helian Duo led 70,000 cavalry in two towns, and soon broke through Yizhou, and the Yiwu army lost more than 10,000 soldiers and was forced to retreat to Dingzhou to hold on.

But in the face of the 70,000 troops in the two towns, Wang Hao, who took over as the envoy of Jiedu not long ago, was a little weak-hearted, and while constantly asking for help from the imperial court, he sent people to sue for peace with Helianduo.

Seeing that the Yiwu army was forced to retreat to Dingzhou to hold on, Helian Duo was in a good mood.

He did not refuse the peace envoy sent by Wang Hao, but put forward very harsh conditions to let Wang Hao's envoy go back to deliver the message.

At this time, Helianduo could naturally open his mouth.

He wanted a righteous army that was truly subservient to him, not a nominal submission. He has already broken through Yizhou, and it is a matter of time before he takes Dingzhou, so he naturally has this confidence.

At this time, Liu Rengong quietly led the army to retreat to Youzhou.
