Facing the two who left, Leng Feng did not order an attack, but let them leave and returned to the camp.

Li Xiaogong walked over, patted Leng Feng on the shoulder, and said, "You missed a good opportunity!" ”

Leng Feng smiled and slapped Li Xiaogong's hand away: "Come on, at this time, I only believe that the soldiers in Gaochang City, even if he blows the sky, it can't change the fact that I am from the Tang Dynasty." ”

Li Xiaogong nodded, once upon a time, although the Tang Dynasty had been established, the people and literati still regarded themselves as "Han people", and even rejected and belittled the emperor's Xianbei bloodline.

And now, among the self-proclaimed literati of the common people, in addition to the "Han people", there is another "Tang people". The Tang people do not represent a certain bloodline, but a strong country and a label of prosperity!

"Here we are."

Seeing that the dust of the western skyline began to fly to the east, Li Xiaogong grabbed the bow and arrow in his hand. The enemy's cavalry, the mighty oppression, just the momentum of more than 300,000 people, made Gaochang City feel crumbling.

At this moment, obviously on the strongest city wall in Gaochang, and behind the safest battlements, Li Xiaogong still felt a chill.

It's close....

It's closer....

"Let's fight!"

Without waiting for the enemy to move forward, Leng Feng issued an order.

The land outside the city has been covered by the corpses of soldiers and horses, and it is impossible to go out of the city to bury thunder, and there is no need to wait for the enemy to approach before attacking.

If you get closer, the corpses of the enemy will threaten the walls, which is not good.

The artillery was the first to fire, and as the longest-range weapon, it did not bombard the enemy at close range, but fired as far away as possible, trying to blow up the enemy's leader.

However, the various patriarchs of the Turks, the lords of the Western Regions, and others were very smart not to move forward, but to watch the battlefield from afar.

The second wave is the Thunderbolt.

The third wave was thunder.

The gunpowder weapons stored in Gaochang City began to pour into the attack.

Without the threat of the Condor Archers, the soldiers could occasionally lean out and shoot accurately, and for a while, the first batch of enemies who approached Gaochang City once again experienced what a dilemma is.

Looking at the city in the distance, Lu Dong sighed in admiration.

Seeing Lu Dong's admiration, the king of Qiuzi couldn't help but ask, "Why is the prime minister sighing?" ”

Although Lu Dongzan is only the prime minister of Tibet, the status of the minister of a powerful country is still something that the lords of these small countries need to respect.

Lu Dongzan saw that everyone was looking at him, so he said: "I originally wanted to take Gaochang without blood, but how could I protect the country and be stubborn." Although we can take down Gaochang, the casualties will definitely not be low! ”

Everyone nodded in unison.

The garrison of Gaochang is insufficient, but they have the artifact to defend the city, and even if they can capture Gaochang, it is estimated that they will have a loss of about 100,000.

And after Gaochang, there is still a Jiayuguan!

Ashina Helu said loudly: "Don't think nonsense, since we have decided to deal with the Tang Dynasty, we must be prepared for casualties." We have no way out, so why sigh? ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Ashina Helu was right, since the world had begun to attack the Tang Dynasty, then, between the Tang Dynasty and them, only one side could stand to the end.

Because of the large-scale use of gunpowder weapons outside Gaochang City, the smoke of gunpowder was filled, and the entire Gaochang City seemed to be shrouded.

On a sand dune in the east of Gaochang City, a man hidden in the yellow sand pit put away his binoculars, ran quickly to the place where the horse was hidden, and galloped back to Jiayuguan.

"Tell the general, Gaochang has begun to officially start a war with the enemy army!"

"It's a war!"

The eldest grandson Chong pinched the pen in his hand and looked at Guo Xiaoke.

Guo Xiaoke shook his head: "We can't act rashly, why should the Protector guard Gaochang?" It is to absolutely keep Jiayuguan. If we switch on and off, everything will be fine if we win, and if we lose, our defense line in the northwest will be completely torn apart! ”

The eldest grandson Chong said in a low voice: "But, more than 300,000 troops! The Protector only has 80,000 troops, how can he top? ”

Although he acquiesced to Guo Xiaoke's suggestion not to support it, Changsun Chong quickly wrote a letter and sent it to Chang'an urgently.

During the war, all border information was reported in the form of a red and urgent report, which was the fastest way to transmit information on this land.

After only five days of transportation, it was transmitted to Chang'an.

When Li Shimin on the throne saw the description of the fold clearly, he couldn't help frowning.

The addition of the Tibetans swelled the number of enemies on the northwest frontier to more than 300,000.

This is the worst news that the imperial court has received since the start of the war!.

Fang Xuanling saw Li Shimin's ugly face, and couldn't help but ask, "Your Majesty, but what happened at the border?" ”

Li Shimin nodded, and did not hide it: "The enemy on the side of Gaochang has received the help of Tubo, and the strength has increased to more than 300,000. ”

"More than 300,000 ah...."

"So many people...."

"The Lord Protector and the King of the River are in big trouble this time...."

Hearing the emperor's words, the ministers couldn't help but mutter.

Just when the ministers were sweating for Leng Feng and Li Xiaogong, one person stood up in the team and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen asks Your Majesty to allow the ministers to lead Qianniuwei to support the northwest battlefield!" ”

The crowd looked at the man who had come forward.

Well, some young, some tender.

And how can such a young official stand so high?

Li Shimin looked fixedly, and it was Di Renjie, one of Leng Feng's disciples, who stood up.

Today's Di Renjie officially entered the office, and directly worshiped the official Shaoqing of Dali Temple.

Over the years, he has been specializing in crime, criminal investigation, and has also compiled books such as "Criminal Psychology".

Mr. Yu Huanzhi read all the books on the sickbed, and also wrote down the comment "The road sign of the lost, the day of the dawn".

As soon as these books were printed, they were distributed by the imperial court to officials throughout the country.

And Di Renjie, with this, directly became the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, second only to Dai Guan, the secretary of Dali Temple.

Seeing Di Renjie standing up, Li Shimin couldn't help but say: "Even if you go, it should be someone else, you have studied with your master for so many years, and you have never practiced martial arts, what's the use of going to the battlefield?" What's more, Qianniuwei has just been established, and it hasn't even started training, so it can't compare to the combat power of the soldiers at the border gates, and if you go, you will be sent to death. ”

Because the Praetorian Xuanjia Army was transferred to the border pass, Li Shimin recruited troops to form Qianniuwei as the Son of Heaven's guard, and there are only more than 10,000 people at present.

Di Renjie frowned and said, "But, Master's side needs support!" ”

Li Shimin folded the music in his hand, stepped down from the throne with his hands behind his back, looked in the northwest direction and said, "Leng Feng is your master, and those who are disciples should have confidence in their master." And as the emperor, I must also have confidence in the soldiers under my command. I believe in them! ”
