Chapter 745: Another Mission

Li Shimin was angry in his heart, he had no good impression of the Turks, and felt that this was mainly Turkic, which was really worthless, although his mother and grandmother were all of Hu blood, but they were all Sinicized Hu people, so he still rejected the pure Hu people of the Turkic people in his heart, but in his current form, his father had to humbly form an alliance and seek foreign aid, which made him hold back a fire and have nowhere to vent, so he could only sulk secretly.

Liang Shidu made a guest away and put forward some alliances, such as how to repair, how to divide the sphere of influence, officially correct the name of the five counties of Liang, and coerce Li Yuan to admit that he would not attack in the future, and for at least fifty years, Liang and Tang would be friendly and would not attack each other.

The Turks also proposed some border counties that needed to be included in the Turkic sphere of influence, so as to break the gap in the area of Shuofang and Wuyuan.

In the future, the Turks can smoothly let the horses go south and enter Luochuan and Guanzhong, which makes the Li family feel aggrieved and helpless.

There are also Liang Shidu and Liu Wuzhou in the north, and the first to make trouble is also their territory, the Turks have a big appetite, and they do not follow the secular etiquette, once the Turks who cross the border line go south to the plains, they will not follow the Central Plains etiquette law, they will inevitably rob their homes and rob their houses, and bully the good people.

What Li Yuan is currently thinking about is how to win more troops, with the help of Turkic cavalry, the more the better, and he can kill people with a knife.

He is more than half a hundred years old, and the city is very deep, although today he grovels and greets the brother of the Turkic Khan, and makes a deputy position with the respect of the king of the Tang Dynasty, but he can forbear, as long as the Turks have a large army, fight to the death with Dahua, take the opportunity to hit Dahua hard, and at the same time weaken the strength of the Turks, killing two birds with one stone.

At the same time, he was able to solve the two threats in the west and north, and Li Yuan felt that it was still very worthwhile to pull down the subordinates to form an alliance, as long as the strategic goal could be achieved, the temporary honor and disgrace were nothing.

"Brother Liang Xian, the Khan's envoy, let's talk about it, how to send troops, defeating Dahua is our common goal, and it is also the premise and guarantee of the alliance, one loses both, one is prosperous, if Dahua crushes our tripartite alliance, I'm afraid survival is a problem, and other contracts are not necessary."

"Haha, the tripartite army, can't you still deal with Dahua?" After laughing, Qi Ji said: "Although you are afraid of Dahua, but my Turkic iron cavalry is his nemesis, this time, the Khan decided, at least 80,000 troops, all cavalry, to launch a frontal attack on Dahua, and the Liang army of 80,000, the Tang army of 100,000, outflanking on both roads, will definitely be able to break Luocheng." ”

Liang Shidu said: "260,000 troops, plus logistics troops, is 300,000 horses, which will be twice as many as the strength of the Dahua front, and it will definitely hit the Dahua army hard!" ”

Li Yuan is also thinking about it, and feels that in terms of troops, he does have a big advantage, and the cavalry is twice as large as Dahua, and he can definitely win the frontal battle, the key is that Luo Cheng is scheming, and the use of troops is not according to common sense, in case of a sneak attack, the overall planning of the forces of the three parties is not enough, and it is not impossible to be defeated one by one.

"Although we have a lot of troops, but each of them is in command, passing information back and forth, there is a delay, Na Luo Cheng is extremely cunning, and he must not be careless, so this time he sent troops, but he worked out the way and password to transmit messages to each other, how to transmit signals, and coordinated the three ways of attacking on the left and right. In addition, it is necessary to select excellent generals to serve as commanders, understand the art of war steadily, do not rush forward, press forward step by step, and drive Dahua back to Longyou. ”

Liang Shidu agreed with Li Yuan's proposal, saying that he would send several generals of Liang State, which was the strongest combat force at present.

Although Qi Ji didn't care and was a little arrogant, he more or less survived Luo Cheng's prestige, and he still nodded, and also said that he would expel the Turkic generals.

After the alliance, it was a bonfire party and a song and dance performance, how could Li Yuan have the heart to look at these, he retreated, and left in a hurry with people, to rush back to raise soldiers and horses.

"Father, lead the troops this time, leave it to me!" Li Shimin asked for help and decided to personally be the commander of the Tang Army and deal with Luo Cheng.

Li Yuan glanced at him and sighed: "Do you think that with your intelligence, skills, use of troops, and stable temperament, you are the right one?" ”

"This ......" Li Shimin choked up when asked, and he also knew very well that he and Luo Cheng still couldn't be compared, not on the same level.

Li Yuan said meaningfully: "Don't think, the alliance army has a large number of people, so it must be a sure chance of victory, Luo Cheng to deal with the enemy, wonderful to win more with less, we must try our best to lead the main force of Dahua to the side of the Turkic iron cavalry, both defeated, we outflank, give a heavy blow, and finally kill Luo Cheng, we have to rely on ourselves." Therefore, there must be an old general in charge, with a veteran soldier, steady and mature, high prestige, can fix the heart of the army, act at the opportunity, if you go, according to the impatience, you will definitely be calculated. ”

Although Li Shimin was not convinced, he was also self-aware, and it was rare that he did not refute it.

"Do you know why I brought you here?" Li Yuan's tone calmed down.

Li Shimin shook his head a little blankly.

"It is to let you see the situation clearly, no longer be blindly arrogant, recognize the situation of Datang, be able to be ashamed and brave, and act steadily, so that Datang can turn the crisis into safety."

Li Shimin's nose was sour, and he couldn't imagine that his father brought him here, all for his sake, educating him in disguise and understanding the overall situation.

"The child understands, so can the child fight against Dahua this time?"

Li Yuan shook his head and said, "The northwest is occupied, you don't have to worry about it." ”

"Doesn't the father trust the child?" Li Shimin was a little disappointed and anxious to ask.

Li Yuan looked into the distance and sighed: "No, the northwest is occupied, I already have a suitable candidate, his name is Zhang Zhenzhou, he is a general of the Great Sui, he used to be a local Taishou, Huainan was in turmoil, and now he has come to Guannei to retire. Before the alliance was formed, I had sent someone to invite him out of the mountain. As for you, there is a place that is more needed, that is, Jinyang, where Li Xiaogong and Song Jingang confronted each other, and they couldn't attack for a long time, it is said that there is a general under Song Jingang, Wei Chi Gong, who is very powerful, and needs your assistance to go over and take back Jinyang, and if I Tang Guo still has a way back! ”
