Ba Zhuo ordered troops and horses from various tribes to converge in the royal court, and then send troops to attack the Tang Dynasty. 35xs

The tribes were scattered all over the place, gathering their own warriors, and then it took time to assemble in the royal court, and in order not to miss the best opportunity to attack the Tang Dynasty, Bazhuo stipulated that each tribe must arrive at the royal court within five days.

If anyone was late, the head of the tribe would be beheaded, and this order made many tribes far away from the royal court cry bitterly.

It is good to say that the tribes that are relatively close to the royal court are not easy to reach the royal court within five days.

They also need to go back to mobilize the clansmen before they can bring them to the royal court, not counting the time to mobilize the clansmen, it takes time to go back and forth.

Five days of sincerity is not enough, but they don't dare to bring it up with Bazhuo, because the person who proposed it has already been executed by Bazhuo for disturbing the morale of the army!

The head was still hanging on the flagpole, and such a bloody scene naturally shocked many people.

Everyone was only fortunate to go back and transfer troops to the royal court according to Bazhuo's order.

Xue Yantuo is mobilizing troops on this side, and in Chang'an on the other side, Li Chengqian, the prince of the Tang Dynasty, is planning to leave the palace.

In Chang'an, East Palace, and Chongjiao Palace, Li Chengqian summoned Yang Shidao and Fang Xuanling.

When Yang Shidao and Fang Xuanling came to the Chongjiao Palace, they saw Li Chengqian wearing armor, and the two looked at each other, both puzzled.

"I've seen Your Highness!" Yang Shidao and Fang Xuanling saluted.

"Excuse me!" Li Chengqian said.

"Your Highness is wearing armor and summoned me and the two of you, I don't know what Your Highness is doing?" Yang Shidao asked.

"I came to you today to tell you one thing, the widow has decided to go to Xiazhou to raise the army, and he will leave immediately."

"During the period when the widow is not in Chang'an, all affairs will be handed over to the two of you, and you will stay in Chang'an." Li Chengqian said.

"What?" The two were shocked!

Fang Xuanling hurriedly said: "Your Highness! This is absolutely unacceptable! The minister could not agree. ”

"The widow is here to raise the army, not to do anything, what can't be done." Li Chengqian said.

"Your Highness! Now that His Majesty has personally conquered Liaodong, if you also leave Chang'an, then Chang'an and Luoyang will be empty. ”

"The minister is worried that there will be small people who will take the opportunity to make trouble, not to mention, Xiazhou is a remote area, where do you need His Highness's body to go to the army in person." Fang Xuanling hurriedly persuaded.

"What the minister said is that His Royal Highness really wants to appease the soldiers and horses of Xiazhou, and he can send a minister to raise the army, so why do it himself." Yang Shidao also helped.

They really don't want the prince to act so recklessly, thinking about going to Xiazhou to raise the army today, and they don't know what the prince wants to do tomorrow.

The prince really wants to come out of it, and he has to stop the prince if he says anything today. Flash Dance

What kind of place is Xiazhou, where the people are mixed, it is a place where the Han and Yi people live together, and it is the most chaotic place.

The crown prince's golden body, if he goes to Xiazhou, what kind of mistakes, how can they explain to His Majesty Li Er.

"The widow is the crown prince, why not go to appease the soldiers of a state! They are all soldiers who defend the border of our Tang Dynasty. ”

"The widow is supposed to go and comfort them, and what is the purpose of you standing in the way here?" Li Chengqian said.

No matter what they say today, it's useless, he has to go to this Xia Zhou, and no one can stop him.

"Your Highness! Xiazhou is a place where the Han people and the Hu people live together, the Hu people are so brave and ruthless, and the minister is worried that there are people who are not long-eyed, and they collided with His Royal Highness! Fang Xuanling said.

"I'm worried about it! Regardless of whether you are a Han, a Hu, or any other clan, as long as you are a citizen of the Tang Dynasty, we should treat them equally. ”

"Besides, the widow's East Palace guards are well protected, you don't have to worry so much." Li Chengqian said.

"Your Highness! The minister heard that Xue Yantuo's internal Yi Nan Khan died violently, and his son pulled out the fire and killed Lu Mang and seized the position of Khan. ”

"The minister is worried that Xue Yantuo will raise troops to attack, and at that time, Xia Zhou will definitely bear the brunt, and His Highness is afraid that it will be dangerous to go this time." Yang Shidao said.

"Now that Bazhuo has just won the Khan throne, the foundation is not stable, and Bazhuo still needs to stabilize the situation in order to sit firmly on the Khan throne."

"There is a kung fu army to attack my Tang Dynasty, even if Ba Zhuo ignores domestic opposition and raises troops to attack my Tang Dynasty, there is no worry!"

"Xiazhou has An Guogong and Zuo Xiaowei Zhonglang General Tian Renhui, if he Xue Yantuo dares to come, he will definitely be called back."

"If Xue Yantuo really raises troops to invade, the widow can't sit idly by, and he should go to Xiazhou to raise the army to boost morale." Li Chengqian said.

Yang Shidao wanted to use such words to persuade Li Chengqian to change his mind, but Li Chengqian did not accept this.

Whether Xue Yantuo will raise troops to attack, he knows better than anyone else.

Li Chengqian left the Chongjiao Hall with people and went to the Guangtian Hall behind the Chongjiao Palace.

Taking this opportunity to temper the generals under his command is the real purpose of Li Chengqian's trip to Xiazhou this time.

"What should we do now?" Looking at the back of Li Chengqian's departure, Yang Shidao asked Fang Xuanling.

"How do I know what to do? The prince insisted on going his own way! You and I have tried my best to stop it! But I still didn't stop it, and I didn't have a way. Fang Xuanling shook his head helplessly.

In my heart, I hope that this trip to Xiazhou will be smooth.

Although Fang Xuanling has many ideas, he has a shortcoming, that is, he is not decisive enough to make decisions.

Otherwise, there would be no reputation for Fang Xuanling's decision, and when it came time for Fang Xuanling to make an idea, Fang Xuanling was mostly undecided.

"See Your Highness!" As soon as Li Chengqian walked into the Guangtian Palace, the generals waiting in the hall hurriedly got up and saluted Li Chengqian!

"Excuse me!" Li Chengqian came to the main seat and sat down, looking at Pei Xingjian, Qiu Shenji, Cheng Wuting, Wang Fangyi, Long Zhi, and Xue Wanche and other military attaches of the East Palace.

"Are you all ready?" Li Chengqian asked.

"Your Highness! Everything is in accordance with His Royal Highness's orders, and the soldiers and horses led by the East Palace are already waiting for His Highness's orders at any time! Cheng Wu stood out and saluted.

This time, Li Chengqian planned to bring all the six rates of the East Palace Commander's Army to Xiazhou, which can be described as a spout of the nest.

"Your Highness! The minister has been ordered by His Royal Highness to recruit soldiers to Xiazhou. Wang Fangyi came out of line.

In addition to taking away the soldiers and horses of the East Palace, Li Chengqian, just in case, ordered Wang Fangyi to send 10,000 soldiers to Xiazhou.

"Your Highness! My brocade guards are also ready, ready to be sent by His Highness at any time. Ryuji came out of the line and saluted.

"Good!" Li Chengqian said: "The time has come for you to make meritorious contributions, Xue Yantuo Bazhuo ascended the throne of Khan, and he will definitely invade my Tang border, and you are willing to crusade against Xue Yantuo with the widows." ”

"The ministers are willing to follow His Highness!" The generals hugged their fists.

"Good! Then we can set off for the Xiazhou Fu army, waiting for the arrival of Xue Yantuo's army. Li Chengqian got up and said.
