"Weng Changshi, Your Majesty is very concerned about the current situation in Liangzhou, although you have a report before, but it is not detailed, so I hope Weng Changshi can tell it carefully."

Looking at the two people in front of him, Li was not polite, although he did not understand military affairs, but he did not forget the mission of this trip.

Weng Gao looked at Zhang Hongxin and said, "Zhang Sima, do you say, or do you say?" ”

Zhang Hongxin smiled bitterly, "Weng Changshi, you also know the situation in Liangzhou now, let's just say it, at most you didn't say it, let me add." ”

Seeing the expressions of the two, Li couldn't help but be a little strange, shouldn't Liangzhou be safer at the moment? Why do the two of them look like this?

Soon, Weng Gao began to solve his doubts.

Although Weng Gao has only been in Liangzhou for a few years, he still has a certain understanding of the situation in Liangzhou.

"Li Shangshu, in fact, today's Liangzhou is really troubled by internal and external troubles。。。。。" At this time, Weng Gao was like a resentful woman, constantly complaining.

After listening to Weng Gao's words, Li had a more comprehensive understanding of Liangzhou at this time.

Indeed, Liangzhou is really in internal and external troubles.

There were indeed 20,000 elite soldiers in Liangzhou City, but the scope of these people's activities was limited to Liangzhou City and its surroundings, and half of the counties under the jurisdiction of Liangzhou were controlled by the Hao clans of Wen Mo or Tubo.

The north of Liangzhou belongs to the territory of the Wen people, and the south belongs to the territory of the Tubo people, and the city of Liangzhou is sandwiched in the middle.

Moreover, there were no large tribes at the end of the Wen Dynasty, among which the Du Lunbu was relatively large, with a population of 50,000 or 60,000 and more than 10,000 people with armor. Because nomads are all soldiers, as long as they are adults, men are warriors.

Although the largest tribe in the late Wen dynasty was only more than 10,000 warriors, the entire Wen tribe had more than 100,000 people.

The Tubo people have more than 200,000, and the largest is the Liugu Alliance.

In fact, there is no strict boundary between the Wen people and the Tubo people in Hexi, even the Liugu Department is not an orthodox Tubo people, strictly speaking, they also belong to the Wen people, but these do not admit that they are Wen Mo people, and still regard themselves as Tubo people.

Moreover, the Tubo and Wenmo people are not all willing to live in pursuit of water and grass, some people are used to living in the town, and many people have joined the Guiyi Army, and even the cavalry under Zhang Huaiding has many Tubo and Wenmo people.

The Han people in Liangzhou have less than 200,000 people, strictly speaking, only a little more than 100,000, and more than half of them have been Tuboized.

In fact, from this figure, we can see how bad the situation in Liangzhou is.

"Li Shangshu." As Zhang Hongxin, who has been in Liangzhou for more than 20 years, has the most say in the situation in Liangzhou, "The situation in Liangzhou today is really not good. Zhang Huaiding wanted to go back and regain the position of the righteous army, and his army had 18,000 men, including 13,000 cavalry.

If he wants to return to Shazhou to seize the position of Jiedu envoy, the 13,000 cavalry will inevitably be taken away, and it is very likely that the remaining 5,000 infantry will also be taken away.

In this way, the army of Liangzhou was only four thousand people, of which only one thousand cavalry.

With such troops, we will not be able to hold Liangzhou.

Not to mention that the people of Wen Mo will be tempted, the Tubo people of the Liugu Department and the Tubo Hao clans in other counties will not let go of this opportunity to occupy Liangzhou. ”

To be honest, Li didn't expect the situation in Liangzhou to be so grim.

As the largest city in Hexi, Liangzhou must not be allowed to fall into the hands of the Tubo people or the Wen people, otherwise the Hexi strategy will be dealt a major blow.

But Li is not a military general, and he doesn't know how to make up his mind about this kind of thing for a while.

"Li Shangshu, the last general suggested sending troops to destroy the Du Lunbu, deterring the Tubo and Wen people in Liangzhou, and then ask for help from the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate and the imperial court." Li Wenzhong, who was standing quietly on the side, opened his mouth to suggest.

"Destroy the Du Lunbu?"

Zhang Hongxin looked at the young player in front of him, a little surprised, or rather funny, in his opinion, the other party was a bit of a fool, and even couldn't do anything about it.

"This general, you may not know the situation of the Du Lunbu. Du Lunbu was the largest tribe in late Wen, with a population of 50,000 or 60,000 people, and these nomads were all soldiers, which meant that they could take out an army of about 15,000 people, and they were also cavalry.

After Zhang Tingshi led his army to withdraw, it was impossible to launch an attack with the forces of Liangzhou unless the imperial court sent reinforcements. ”

Li also felt a little hasty, "Commander Li, this official thinks what Zhang Sima said is reasonable. ”

Li Wenzhong shook his head, "Li Shangshu, Zhang Sima, what you said may be right, but at that time, the Wen people will definitely be wary, and even the tribes will unite with each other."

Now it's different, we just arrived in Liangzhou, and Du Lunbu wouldn't have thought that we would attack them at this time.

I have 2,000 cavalry on my hands, and before I set out from Lanzhou, the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate sent 1,000 cavalry. As long as Zhang Huaiding sent his 5,000 elite cavalry, 8,000 elite cavalry would be enough to deal with the unsuspecting Du Lunbu.

As long as the Du Lunbu is destroyed, the Wen Mo people will be honest, and the Liugu Department will also have to weigh whether they want to go against the imperial court. ”

"Impossible, Zhang Huaiding won't borrow the 5,000 cavalry, but he has spent a lot of financial and material resources to build it in recent years. Moreover, he also had to use these 5,000 elite horsemen as hole cards to seize the Guiyi Army's festival envoys, and it was impossible to lend them to the imperial court. Weng Gao shook his head, he also felt that Li Wenzhong's idea was a little whimsical.

"It's man-made, isn't it? Before the imperial court recovered Longyou, Zhang Huaiding sent thousands of cavalry to help, why not this time?

And Weng Changshi also said that he intended to seize the Guiyi Army's Jiedu envoy, if there was no support from the imperial court, would he be able to succeed? Even if it is successful, when the time comes, will his moderation make it possible to sit firmly? Li Wenzhong asked rhetorically.

Weng Gao and Zhang Hongxin were silent for a moment, and finally looked at Li in unison.

Li is the leader of the imperial court's envoy to Hexi, how to choose, he still has to make an idea, otherwise the two of them would not dare to take this risk.

Li was also a little hesitant, he was a true man of letters, and had not held any military-related positions.

However, there are still solar terms, when Huangchao invaded Chang'an, Shangshu Bayin was in his hands, but he refused to give it, but fled Chang'an with the seal letter. Later, the heir to the throne of King Li usurped the throne and issued an edict to let him serve as the prime minister, but he also refused, which shows that he is also a very assertive person.

After hesitating for a while, Li Cai made up his mind, looked at everyone's Qiji's eyes, and said, "I will go to Zhang Huaiding to ask for troops, if he agrees to borrow troops, we will send troops to Du Yanbu; If he didn't agree, he had to wait for reinforcements from the court to arrive. ”

In fact, Li didn't want to make a big deal in Hexi, after all, his mission was to send an envoy to Hexi, not to come to Hexi to fight.

However, when Li found Zhang Huaiding to explain his intentions, Zhang Huaiding actually agreed.

It's just that he didn't promise to lend all 5,000 fine cavalry, but only promised to give 2,000, but he could give another 5,000 ordinary cavalry to the imperial court.

Li was not dissatisfied with this, after all, Zhang Huaiding was willing to lend 7,000 cavalry, plus the accompanying 3,000 cavalry of the forbidden army, to destroy an unsuspecting Du Lun department, which was not impossible.

As for this casual extermination of the human tribe, Li didn't have much of a burden.

There can be no righteous words in this kind of war, but from the perspective of the imperial court, the stability of Liangzhou must be ensured.

If you can't deal with the Rokutani Department, you can only take the weak Du Lunbu, and you can only count the Du Lunbu as unlucky!
