Li Jing smiled slightly, and he didn't lie: "This time, my Datang sent troops to eliminate Gaochang and open up the trade routes of the Western Regions, and there will be no rest!" ”

That's right! Li Shimin's dispatch of troops this time is not just for the boring thing of "cotton", opening up the trade routes of the Western Regions is the most fundamental purpose, as long as the bandit blocking the road of Gaochang is removed, the trade between the Tang Dynasty and the Western Regions can be greatly improved.

Ashina Ayi was not surprised by Li Jing's answer, in fact, as early as she found out that Tang Jun appeared, she had already guessed Tang Jun's purpose, and with the hope of what happened, she would come over to take a look at the situation.

Now in front of her is a full 20,000 elite cavalry of the Tang Dynasty, who knows how many Tang troops there are behind!

The moth fights the fire and hits the stone with an egg, and the wise man does not do it, Ashina Ayi thought about it for a while and said: "Marshal Li, Gaochang is an alliance with my Turks after all, I hope ........."

"There is no hope!" Li Jing pulled out his long sword: "Retreat, or fight!" Princess Ashiyue chooses by herself! ”

With Li Jing's words, the Tang cavalry pulled out their horizontal swords one after another, raised their horse lances flatly, and looked like they were ready to fight at any time.

Ashina Ayiang raised his head: "Marshal Li, if you fight, we are not afraid!" Of course, you have 20,000 cavalry here, but the reinforcements from Gaochang are also coming, and I also have 20,000 warriors in the Turks, so you are not afraid that your appetite will be too big and your stomach will be broken? ”

Ashina Ayi's purpose is obvious, Gaochang is obviously abolished, if she can reach an agreement with Li Jing, she can get part of Gaochang's land for nothing.

Although Gaochang is small, mosquito legs are also meat!

Li Jing smiled contemptuously: "War? Burst your stomach? Princess Ashiyue, please rest assured, I, Li Jing, have a good appetite, let alone a Gaochang, even you Turks, I dare to take a bite! ”

"You dare!" Ashina Ayi pulled out her scimitar: "Isn't Marshal Li crazy?" ”

Li Jing pouted: "Crazy? I'm really a little crazy now, with all due respect, the 20,000 cavalry of your country is not enough for our Tang army to stuff their teeth! ”

"You ........." Ashina Ayi almost kicked on the horse's belly and charged directly, but after all, she was very smart and familiar with Li Jing's style, since Li Jing said that the 20,000 cavalry behind her was not enough for him to stuff his teeth, then he must have something to rely on.

What is this reliance on?

Ashina Ayi pondered bitterly.

"Sister, why bother talking nonsense with him, just fight directly! I see, this Li Jing is just scaring us! "A young man rode a black horse to Ashina Ayi's side.

Ashina Ayi rebuked: "Helu, don't be rude! Although Marshal Li is a Tang man, he is also a hero! How can you be so unreasonable with a hero! ”

The title of "sister" made Li Jing instantly alert, Ashina Ayi is a woman, and now whether it is the Tang Dynasty or the Turks, they are all patriarchal, since this young man calls Ashina Ayi his sister, then he is likely to also have the surname "Ashina".

"This young man's head is much more valuable than his sister's!" Li Jing couldn't help but use the eyes of a general to evaluate this young man.

Seeing that his sister was still thinking, Ashina Helu glanced at Li Jing in disgust, turned his horse back to the battle, and didn't know that his head had entered Li Jing's "valuation range".

"Marshal Lee." Ashina Ayi raised his head and said: "Since you didn't make a move, it means that you are still afraid of our Turks, then, if you show you the hole cards that you have eaten our 20,000 people, I, Ashina Ayi, in the name of the Heavenly Wolf God, promise to immediately lead the troops back to the Turks, and never send a single soldier into Gaochang!" ”

It is solemn for the Turks to swear in the name of the wolf god, and the people of the Ashina family to swear in the name of the wolf god are the most solemn.

Li Jing did not hesitate to point to a small dirt mountain next to him: "Princess Ashiyue can send someone to climb the mountain and look far away to see what the walls of the Gaochang Royal City look like!" ”

Ashina Helu didn't wait for his sister's order, and the first one galloped out on horseback.........

Soon after, Ashina Helu returned with a shocked face.

"Sister... Sister, the city wall, the city wall, the city wall is gone! ”

"Gone?" Ashina Ayi grabbed his brother's arm and asked, "Tell me clearly, why is the city wall gone?" ”

Ashina Helu said hesitantly: "The city wall on the east side of the Gaochang King City has an extra hundred steps*******

In the end, Ashina Helu even spoke back to Turkic.

Ashina Ayi finally heard his brother's description clearly, the Tang army attacked Gaochang for only half a day, why did a section of the wall of Gaochang Wangcheng disappear!

The walls of the Gaochang royal city are made of earth and stone, not nailed up with wood, and besides, even if they are nailed up with wood, it is impossible to be demolished in half a day!

Li Jing smiled slightly: "Princess Ashiyue can understand that my Tang Dynasty has mastered a super powerful weapon, I will give you a thorough understanding, the power of that weapon is enough to erase that section of the city wall." Look at how incompetent my enemy is, tell you all the power of this weapon, maybe when I return to Chang'an, His Majesty the Emperor will still ask me for the crime. ”

Ask you a fox!

Ashina Ayi wanted to shout like this, Li Jing's words didn't know whether they were true or false, but the city wall of Gaochang Wangcheng was indeed missing, and according to Ashina Helu, Gaochang Wanggong Palace had already burned into flames.........

"Marshal Li, no matter what, we have fulfilled our obligations as allies, farewell!"

Ashina Ayi decided not to entangle with Li Jing anymore, and left decisively with the team, now she doesn't dare to bet, because Li Jing personally appears here, he must have something to rely on, even if he doesn't rely on it, 20,000 against 20,000, the fight will outweigh the losses!

How many people have used the strategy of "empty city strategy" throughout the ages?

Li Jing watched the Western Turkic reinforcements retreat, and couldn't help but touch the ground-level thunder on the carriage beside him, although he really wanted to put one, but since this thing is earth-shattering, then the cost must be expensive, maybe these four are already the limit of Datang's current national strength can be manufactured.

Li Jing only knew the usage and power of thunderbolts and thunderbolts, but did not know how they were made. In fact, Li Shimin did not expect Li Xiaogong and the others to save these four earth-level thunders. Li Jing and Li Xiaogong had only been away from Beijing for ten days, and the Thunderbolt Division had created four more ground-level thunderbolts.

"Leave five thousand horsemen and continue to guard against the Western Turks, and the rest will join up with the canyon defenders and counterattack the Gaochang army!"

Looking at the time, Li Xiaogong should have caught Ko Wentai, and the next thing to do is to clear Gaochang's army and completely include Gaochang into the territory!

Li Xiaogong endured it for a long time, but in the end he couldn't hold back his laughter.

Seeing that the royal city and the royal palace had been destroyed, Ko Wentai actually put on the clothes of a eunuch and prepared to pass the customs in confusion.

I couldn't sleep with three pounds of tears, so I wanted to knock a sleeping pill. Today's two watches have been completed, and I will sleep in the morning during the day.
