Chapter 582: Wanting to Seize Tongguan (First Update, Asking for Subscription)
After a long pause, Wang Ke suddenly woke up.
Wu Yan's attitude was so resolute that it was obviously impossible to convince him to form an alliance with the Tang Dynasty. With the current situation, he has no choice but to go back to his life.
If you continue to dwell here, not only will you not be able to achieve your goal, but I am afraid that your life will also be buried here.
After groaning, Wang Ke glanced at the entourage beside him and said in a deep voice: "Let's go!" ”
……
Compared with Daxing, Beiping is undoubtedly much closer.
Before Wang Ke returned to Daxing, Luo Cheng received a message sent by Wuyan.
Knowing that Li Yuan sent an envoy to form an alliance with Wuyan, Luo Cheng couldn't help but sneer, is this the so-called hunger and food, this is to win over an ally before the war!
Luo Cheng didn't believe that Li Yuan would not know the relationship between the Turks and Yan Yun, maybe he already had the idea of breaking the jar. However, this matter did not have much impact, and after Luo Cheng smiled, he didn't take it too seriously.
No matter how Li Yuan struggled, his ending still couldn't be changed. Luo Cheng was sure that after the start of the war, Yan Yunjingqi was bound to sweep it away with a devastating momentum.
……
On the other side, Wang Ke hurried back to Daxing, and Li Yuan finally learned the news.
Seeing Wang Ke's embarrassed return, Li Yuan had a guess, I am afraid that the matter of the alliance is basically cold.
After hearing Wang Ke's reply, Li Yuan's expression became angry, this Wuyan was too deceitful, he dared to call him a pseudo-emperor, did he really think that he could do whatever he wanted by uniting with Yan Yun?
That's just the way it is.
After the silence, Li Yuan finally calmed down, now Datang's situation is already very embarrassing, if it is a sidewalk, it is asking for his own death, not what he wants to see.
Although strictly speaking, this matter can be blamed on Wang Ke, after all, it is his ineffective work.
But now Li Yuan didn't have the heart to think about this, so he waved his hand to let Wang Ke retreat.
Now that Yan Yun is eyeing him, Datang can't find an ally, if he wants to fight Yan Yun with just one family, it's just a fool's dream, and Li Yuan himself doesn't believe it.
It's not that Li Yuan is arrogant, but it's true, and no one can refute it.
Previously, Luo Cheng led the coalition army to the city of Daxing, and the momentum was very great, but Li Yuan knew that the soldiers and horses who opposed the king from all walks of life were just bastards, and the real main force was still the army in Luo Cheng's hands.
It was because Yan Yun had not attacked with all his strength before, and he had already put Daxing in danger. If he makes a wave of shots with all his might, can he really stop it, even if Li Yuanba makes a move, it is not nine out of ten.
This matter really gave Li Yuan a headache, he never thought that he would end up in such a situation one day, I am afraid that Yang Guang in the past also felt like this.
Surrounded by powerful enemies, but isolated and helpless.
Although my brain hurts, I still have to live my life.
So Li Yuan summoned the ministers again, and he issued an order to change Daxing to Chang'an, the Tang Dynasty is not the former Great Sui, and Chang'an is naturally very different from the past Daxing.
Regarding the name change of Daxing, the ministers did not object, but felt that it was quite appropriate.
This is just a digression, Li Yuan's real purpose is Tongguan.
As I said before, Tongguan is the fortress of Chang'an, and its importance is undoubted.
Chang'an, which has guarded Tongguan, is as solid as a rock, and Chang'an without Tongguan is at the mercy of others. The difference is so big that even Li Yuan feels a headache, and he has only one idea, that is, he must take Tongguan back.
Today's Tongguan is garrisoned by Luo Cheng's troops, and it is no longer in Li Yuan's hands. Once Yan Yun's army arrives, Li Yuan will completely lose the initiative and can only defend passively.
It was Li Yuan's gaze that swept over the ministers, and said in a deep voice: "Tongguan is the first pass in Chang'an, as long as Tongguan is occupied, it can cut off the enemy's march, which is extremely important. ”
"I want to send a large army to recapture Tongguan, I don't know if you have any objections?" Li Yuan's eyes were scorching, and there was a sharp cold glint flashing in them, if anyone dared to object, he would definitely scare them out.
Li Yuan wanted to be more modest, but now that the situation was urgent, he couldn't help but continue to relax, and if he wanted to keep the foundation, he could only try his best.
Fortunately, everyone knew each other, and seeing that Li Yuan's face was solemn, no one dared to go up and touch his moldy head, so he could only nod his head one after another, expressing that he was quite satisfied with Li Yuan's decision.
But the ministers didn't dare to stand up and say anything, and Wang Ke's deeds were negative teaching materials. If you talk too much, you may be asking for hardship, if Li Yuan sends them out, wouldn't it be embarrassing?
In fact, they were too worried, although Li Yuan was urgent, but he was not stupid to this extent, since he wanted to recapture Tongguan, he naturally had to send reliable people to do it, how could he be so casual?
After looking around, Li Yuan said in a deep voice: "Retaking Tongguan is an urgent matter that endangers the survival of my Tang Dynasty, and credible people must be dispatched, if Tongguan is not there, then Chang'an will be in no danger to defend." ”
No matter how stable the Chang'an city is, without the protection of the natural danger level, it will be passive in the face of strong enemies. How embarrassing it would be if you couldn't fight back.
Speaking of which, the ministers were silent again, and let Li Yuan decide for himself which candidate it was. Wouldn't it be bitter if you accidentally implicate yourself?
Seeing the performance of the ministers at the moment, Li Yuan couldn't help but feel a little disheartened, but what could he do, after knowing that Datang was in a worrying situation, everyone did not betray, but chose Mingzhe to protect himself.
Li Yuan thought for a while, nodded and said, "Since you don't have a proposal, then this candidate will be decided by me, but you Aiqing must know that the loss of Chang'an is not my business alone." ”
After saying this, the atmosphere on the field was a little awkward.
Li Yuan raised his head, turned around and left directly.
The ministers had to be silent and dispersed, and they also had their own little Jiujiu in their hearts.
When he returned to his bedroom, Li Yuan directly asked Li Shimin to come over, and at this time, the only person he could rely on was his own son.
Although Li Shimin had been defeated several times in the hands of Luo Cheng before, Li Yuan still trusted him very much, and if he wanted to recapture Tongguan, Li Yuan couldn't think of anyone else for a while.
After all, there is no Luo Cheng in Tongguan today, as long as Li Shimin's army is killed, he will definitely be able to succeed. This is Li Yuan's bottom line, and it is also the information he wants to get from Li Shimin.
Li Shimin looked at Li Yuan and was a little surprised.
But after understanding, Li Shimin quickly suddenly bowed his hand to Li Yuan, and said in a deep voice: "Father's order, the son does not dare to disobey, and he will definitely go all out to take Tongguan." ”
Only then did Li Yuan slowly breathe a sigh of relief.
After receiving Li Shimin's assurance, he inexplicably gained a little more confidence.
