On the front that stretched for nearly 3,000 miles, the offensive and defensive momentum changed!
Originally, every autumn moon in Xifan, they wantonly invaded Lingyan, Fengxiang, Jingyuan, and Jiannan, and the Tang Dynasty could only divide Fang Town in the Qidi, which was close to Beijing, and relied on the support of the Kwantung Autumn Soldiers and financial endowments to support the situation.
Since the victory of Huating, the military strength of Xifan Longyou Hexi has suffered heavy losses, Ma Chongying and the newly appointed host of Shang Qixin'er have been unable to organize a large-scale war in a short period of time, and Trisong Dezan can only draw troops and horses from the Dongdaili of the headquarters to strengthen the defense of Helong.
This is the first time in so many years that Xifan has focused on "defense", and it has not even launched the Qiuyue Offensive at all.
But the Tang Dynasty was different, Emperor Li Shi was very shrewd to appease Huaixi Town, and the daughter of Emperor Daizong, that is, his sister Princess Jiacheng, was married to Tian Xu, the envoy of Wei Bojiedu, and because of the marriage proposal of Hui Hui, Wuyi Khan drove back all the envoys from Xifan to ask for the alliance, and scolded Xifan bitterly, saying, "I am already the son of the son of the Tang family, how can I have a reason to ally with my father's enemies?" Immediately, Wuyi Khan asked the great minister of Hui to lead more than 10,000 troops to attack and aid Anxi and Beiting.
When the interior and the north were stabilized, Li Shi made a bloody investment, in addition to the five thousand war horses offered by Wuyi Khan, and spent a lot of money to purchase three thousand horses, strengthening the cavalry strength of the northwest border army, and then the emperor instructed Kang Rizhi and Gao Chongwen to join forces with 10,000 troops, take a boat into the Feng'an military city of Yuanzhou, and Xing Junya rendezvous, and attack the border of the original and the meeting in advance by the Feng'an city general Wang Shengluan reminded Shatuo, Tuyuhun Xiaowang Zhu Xie Duzhong and Murong Junchao, because of the agreement with Gao Yue, they tacitly withdrew all their respective losses into the territory of Huizhou, The Tang army entered the Shimen Pass in the seven passes of Yuanzhou, and built a strong city here "Shimen Fort" The Northern Song Dynasty had built a flat summer city here, and took advantage of the geographical advantages and dangers of Liupan, Tiandu, and Zhutun Mountain. Later, Sha Tuo and Tuyuhun lied to Ma Chongying, saying that the Tang army had tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and the army was unstoppable.
Ma Chongying heard that Tiandu Mountain was lost, and couldn't help but be shocked, and hurriedly ordered 10,000 people to ride out of Liangzhou, preparing to cross the Yellow River to fight, but at the same time the news came: Liu Haibin led the Weirong army of 10,000 people, marched from Pingliang City, crossed the "Liupan Guancheng" in Longtuo, and then went south along Shuiluochuan; Zhang Jingze and Fuyu Huai led 8,000 soldiers of the Yining Army, came out of the Anrong Pass from Huangyuan, joined the Liu Haibin army, and swept Qin and Cheng Erzhou again.
Gao Yue sat in Xingyuan, Jingnan, Fangzhen in the east of Shannan, sent 100,000 stone and rice, and transported it to Xingyuan from Hanchuan and the Yangtze River by boat, as a reserve grain for the army, plus the rice, wheat and corn in the northwest, Shannan and Jiannan in the past two years, the grain and rice accumulated like a stronghold, it can be said that the logistics are abundant, and the troops are flawless, so after the sacrifice of the tooth flag, Gao Yue ordered:
This time, the Dingwu army sent 7,000 generals and 6,000 archers, of which Tang Jingyan led 3,000 archers all the way out of the river pool to fight for Qiuchi Mountain occupied by Xifan; Sun Bingqian led 3,000 shooters all the way, marched from Luoyang City in Xingzhou, and after meeting with Wang Tong of Lizhou Thorn History, he went out of the Qiangshui of Bailongjiang and swept the area of Wudu.
Wei Gao, who guarded the capital of Shu, heard that Gao Yue sent troops, immediately responded, divided the generals, sent out 20,000 Xichuan archers and Qiong Ya disciples, divided into five ways, and attacked and besieged the Victoria city occupied by Xifan, after Wei Gao sent out the army, the barbarians of the eight countries of Xishan who lived in Tangbo Wei, Song, and Yazhou lived in the area of Aba and Ganzi Autonomous Prefectures in Sichuan Province today, and it was also the location of the famous Jinchuan, Wei Gao asked his brother Wei Yi to give these barbarians silk, ploughing cattle and seeds as a consolation envoy, so that they could form a camp to protect themselves and act as a barrier on the west side of the Shu capital.
However, Wei Gao's goal was not to capture Victoria.
Because in this era, Victoria City is too difficult to capture.
Victoria City, that is, today's Xichuan Li County, was the focus of the Tang Dynasty's brutal contention in the early Tang Dynasty, and the Tang army spent hundreds of millions of dollars to transfer and send troops to Victoria to defend this important land, and Xifan, because Songzhou, which is adjacent to Victoria, is the place where he grazes his war horses, and must not be allowed to be threatened by the Tang army.
After the city of Victoria due to the Anshi rebellion, fell into the western Tibet, Zampu will do his best to manage this city, renamed "worry-free city" has the meaning of the city of Xifan territory worry-free, according to the description of the Tang book Li Deyu biography, "the southern boundary of the state Jiangyang, Minshan Mountains and mountains to the west, do not know its extreme; Looking at Long County in the north, the snow becomes jade, and the east looks at Shudu, if it is at the bottom of the well. One side of the lonely peak, three sides of the river, is the West Shu control of the West Fan important place", and also said that "according to the top of the high mountain, three sides of the river, in the Rong Lu Pingchuan Chong, is the Han land into the army." "This kind of fortress at an altitude of nearly 3,000 meters above sea level, what is the difficulty of fighting, look at how the old man fought in Jinchuan, and then the Qing army cast hundreds of artillery pieces of various colors with Western technology, including more than 100 cupola cannons, only to take the mountain towers built by the Kham people there to conquer hard, and now Wei Gao is with 200,000 troops, it is difficult to urgently capture the city of Victoria, his move is just to make a big noise, a false feint.
In fact, Wei Gao has nearly 10,000 elite Fengyi Army generals in his hands, and he has been in the city of Shudu, waiting for Gao Yue.
In the West Pavilion of the Shu Capital City, Zheng Qi rarely held the letter happily and came to Wei Gao, the envoy of the Xichuan Festival.
Wei Gao treated this brother-in-law very politely, not only for the sake of relatives, but also for respecting Zheng Qi as a person and agreeing to the elements entrusted by Gao Yue, so the relationship between this pair of brothers-in-law is still very close at the level of Jinglu Yunnan.
"From Yunnan?" Wei Gao asked.
Zheng Qi nodded, and then said that the barbarian king of Yunnan, Yi Mu Xun, entrusted my uncle Zheng Hui to this letter, and secretly sent it here, saying that he did have the "ambition to return to the Tang Dynasty", the reason why Yunnan colluded with Xifan to rebel against the Tang Dynasty in the past was mainly to be bullied by Zhang Qiantuo, and was attacked by Xian Yu Zhongtong for many years. was ready to change his ancestors' policy of rebelling against the Tang Dynasty, and won the support of Zheng Hui and Gui Guo, the Qing officials, so "there is no day when he does not think about reverting to the Tang Dynasty!" ”
Hearing this, Wei Gao walked to the sand table of mountains and rivers where the forces of Jiannan, Xifan, and Yunnan were intertwined, and after watching for a while, he laughed and said:
"What civilization says is very true, but in Gao's humble opinion, the reason why Yunnan agreed to return to my Tang Dynasty is not because of gratitude to my Tang Dynasty, but because of the persecution of the situation."
Zheng Qi was a little surprised, everyone is willing to come to negotiate peace with you, do you still blame others for being insincere? This Wei Gao is similar to Gao Yue's guy, and he has a lot of cities in his heart.
However, Wei Gao didn't mind, and then explained to Zheng Qi that there are four major reasons why this Yunnan wants to rebel and return to the Tang Dynasty, and I would like to mention it for civilization.
