On March 18, Li You waited for the news sent by Wang Xuance, which made him excited.

On February 12th, under the urging of Wang Xuance, Desire Valley finally sent troops, and after a few small battles between the two sides, they confronted each other in the Shule area, and then each increased its troops, and finally a big war broke out on March 1.

Cheng Chuliang personally brought a few soldiers to deliver the letter, and passed through many passes on the way, they crossed the mountains and mountains, crossed the jungle swamp, and finally came to Gaochang City.

This was the case in ancient times, communication technology was backward, what happened 17 days ago, to this day, Li You has just gotten the news. It is not yet known how the situation of the fighting between us and the enemy has changed during these 17 days, and it is certainly difficult to accurately grasp the decision made on the basis of such information.

However, everything is relative. Our information is poor, and so is the enemy. After all, there was a big battle between the two sides of Desire Valley and Profit, and no matter what the victory or defeat was, the main force of the Gully Loss army must have gathered in that area. No matter what happens on Gaochang's side, wait for them to get the information and then react, and be able to mobilize the troops back, from now on, it will take a month at the earliest.

In other words, in the course of a month, the Tang Army can let go.

The Marshal's Mansion in Gaochang City.

On the brown carpet, there is a huge map. Li You, Ashina Simo, Ashina Qing, Ashina Kuncang, Murong Ling, Gao Yong, Xue Rengui, Cheng Chuliang, Hou Cheng, Qu Tong, Sima Jiong and others stood around Yutu and listened to Hou Junji explain the battle plan he formulated.

Hou Junji said: "Your Highness, the minister's opinion is that with Ashina Simo's men and horses, he will lay down Yanqi and Yuli to the west, and then defend to the west. With the men and horses of the Yinzhou Prefecture Commander's Headquarters to the east, the Iwu was stationed on the spot, forming a defensive posture against the Uighurs.

With General Gao Yong leading the main force of the Tang Army and the Gaochang people, he returned along the original road, swept westward from the ancient country of Loulan, and defeated Milan, Ruoqiang, and the end, Jingjue, ? Ronglu and Mi were connected with the Tang army in Khotan.

This is the first stage of the combat mission, after the completion of this stage of the mission, observe the changes in the Western Turkic civil war, and then make the next deployment. ”

After all, Hou Junji is the top general of the Tang Dynasty, and his deployment is safe and feasible.

Strategically, the targets currently selected by the Tang Army are all areas on the periphery of the Western Turks, which cannot touch the core interests of the Western Turks, so the Western Turks will not fight a decisive battle with the Tang Army for these goals.

At the same time, these targets are all on the edge of Longyou Road, and if these targets are laid, they will be connected with the land of Datang, and it is very convenient for reinforcements and supplies in the lobby. It is equivalent to expanding the territory of Datang in a practical sense.

In terms of tactics, with the strength of the Tang Army, coupled with the combat methods suitable for the Western Regions that were summarized during the training in Gaochang during this period, it is very important to grasp these small countries in order.

Hou Junji finished talking about his battle plan and asked, "Your Highness, what is your opinion?" ”

Li You said: "I have no opinion, do you all have any opinions?" ”

Everyone thought it was feasible and said, "No opinion." ”

Hou Junji said to Li You: "Dashuai, please give an order." ”

Li You said: "General Hou, you just give the order." ”

Hou Junji was not polite, stepped into the handsome position, and shouted: "The generals will listen to the order!"

Hou Junji picked up a token and shouted: "Ashina Simo listens to the order!" ”

Ashina Simo stepped forward and arched his hand and said, "The last general!"

Hou Junji said: "Order your subordinates ......"

The army set off separately, and Li You and Hou Junji came to see off the Tang army.

March 22 at 9 o'clock.

Outside the south gate of Gaochang City, hunting with flags. Tens of thousands of cavalry of the Tang Army were neatly arranged, and their military appearance was solemnly and neatly inspected by Li You and Hou Junji.

Then, surrounded by everyone, Li You came to the front of the soldiers of Gaochangguo.

Hou Cheng and Gao Tong were the chief and deputy commanders of this team, and they took charge of this army with the grassroots officers from the Tang Dynasty who were supplemented by the White Tiger. Li You also specially allocated and replenished their armor and weapons, and issued two months' military salaries in advance. The soldiers of Gao Changguo, seeing that the Tang Army did not discriminate against them, are still relatively stable at present.

In order to improve the morale of the Gaochang cavalry, Li You specially named them the "First Regiment of the Western Regions Cavalry". Li You planned that every time he defeated a country, the number of people was enough to reach 2,500, and he would form a cavalry regiment, and the serial numbers would be arranged downward.

At this time, Hou Cheng reorganized the team, rode his horse in front of Li You, and shouted loudly: "The first regiment of the cavalry of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty has been assembled, please give a lecture." ”

Li You rode his horse in front of the officers and men of the cavalry regiment and said loudly: "The officers and men of the first regiment, the Tang Army is an army with glorious traditions, loyal and brave, brave and good at fighting, and has established indelible feats.

Please remember that you are the army of the Tang Dynasty, you must fight bravely, and do not insult the glory of the army of the Tang Dynasty.

I hope that through your performance, you will win honor for the fathers and villagers in your hometown, and let the name of the First Cavalry Regiment resound throughout the Western Regions and the entire Tang Dynasty. ”

"The Tang army will win!"

The soldiers shouted in unison.

Seeing that the morale of the soldiers was high, Li You waved his hand and said, "Let's go!" ”

The army set off, and the war that swept through the Western Regions officially began.

Looking at the Gaochang people in the distance, Hou Junji smiled and said: "Your Highness, your move is good, not only has you added men and horses to the Tang Army, but also transferred away the main strong men in Gaochang, and it will be much easier to manage Gaochang, so that there is no need to divide troops to garrison." It's a win-win-win-win-win-

If this continues, every time we defeat a country, the number of people will increase a lot. It won't be long before the coalition forces will turn into a mighty army. ”

For Li You, Hou Junji really admired, he thought about his son-in-law, and couldn't help but sigh slightly.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but grin when he remembered something.

Hou Junji has no sons, only two daughters, the eldest daughter Haitang is married to Li Chengqian, and the second daughter is currently only 11 years old. Hou Junji hadn't thought about this before, but at this time, he suddenly felt that when his second daughter was 14 years old, and His Royal Highness King Qi was only 21 years old, wouldn't it be a good choice?

Gaochang Thorn History.

After conquering Gaochang, the state of Gaochang was abolished, and Li You temporarily renamed Gaochang as Gaochangzhou. Ashina Qing was appointed as the temporary assassin history, and Gao Qunyu, the city commander of the original Chang County, was appointed as the chief historian, and Sima Jiong was also the Sima Dynasty.

On this day, Ashina Qing was flipping through the files in the palace hall, and the people in the hall were rearranging the items according to her request, and people were coming and going.

At this time, someone came to her, and she didn't care about it and continued to process the file.

"The little one who participated in the assassination of the adult." The person who came said.

Ash Naqing felt familiar, and when she looked up, she saw Li You standing under the hall with a smile. She hurried down and saluted him.

The Gaochang Assassin Mansion and the Dashuai Mansion are not together, and Li You has not seen Ashina Qing for three days. The army had set out, and there was no news for a while, so he was idle and bored, so he came to see her.

Ashina Qing said in surprise: "Lord Wang, why are you here?" ”

Li You said: "I have a case that needs to be judged by Lord Shi. ”

Ashina Qing said seriously: "Lord Wang, please speak." ”

Li You smiled: "I have a friend who hasn't seen her for a few days, and I miss her." However, this man has no conscience and has not come to see me for several days, what do you say? ”

Ash Naqing said a little embarrassed: "No, isn't she accompanying you?" She was referring to Murong Ling, and she didn't follow her on this expedition.

Li You smiled: "So, you have no conscience, everyone knows to accompany me, but you don't go to see me." You say, should you be punished? ”

Ashina Qing said: "It should be punished, please punish the slave and maid." ”

Li You looked into her eyes and asked, "How do you say you should be punished?" ”

Ashina Qing blushed when he looked at him, lowered her head slightly, and muttered, "Ren, let the prince punish you." "The sound is getting quieter and quieter, almost inaudible.

Li You looked at her shy and cute appearance, and was about to take her to the backyard to do something good.

Suddenly, someone outside shouted, "Is Your Highness here?" There is an emergency military report!" I want to chat with more like-minded people about "{?$article_title?} ", WeChat pays attention to "excellent reading literature", chatting about life, looking for confidants~
