Chapter 242 Earth-shattering thoughts
Don't mention the seal Changqing, single Lingzhou. Baidu search the title of the book and see it
Zhang Li returned to the back hall, and Hua Nuer served tea customarily.
It's just that Zhang Chai has a lot of miscellaneous affairs today, has a lot of plans in his heart, and is thinking about big things, so he has no interest in flirting with Hua Nuer.
Zhang Yi held the teacup and thought quietly, looking very focused.
He was so serious, but Hua Nuer felt a little "uncomfortable".
Hua Nu'er sat there silently, her clear eyes as clear as water occasionally swept past Zhang Li's body, her face was extremely ruddy, and her heart was even more imaginative.
During this time, she was actually very nourishing and quiet, and gradually got used to this kind of life.
And the young man in front of her, whom she couldn't describe in words, walked into the depths of her heart in a different way. Staying by his side, Hua Nu'er actually forgot her origin, her past, and all the unpleasantness that happened between her and Zhang Jie.
Now all this tranquility and tranquility makes her feel at ease.
The trajectory of her life has quietly changed because of this man, and what kind of life path should lead to the unknown. Hua Nuer didn't know, the only thing Hua Nuer knew was that she liked all this.
likes to stay by Zhang Jie's side, this kind of life that may be passionate, or prosaic, or dangerous.
"Is Guo Ziyi gone?"
Hua Nu'er was thinking about her own thoughts, and suddenly heard Zhang Mao turn her head to look at her and say softly. "Well, he's gone. However, this person's outspoken admonition was not selfish. With this good general by your side, you should be happy. Hua Nu'er said softly.
"Hehe, how could I blame him. It's just that I have no other plans, so I can't say it for the time being. Hua Nu'er, you go and help me pass Li Guangbi. ”
"Hmm." Hua Nu'er nodded, got up and took the order. At this moment, her demeanor was extremely gentle and demure, Zhang Chai couldn't help but be stunned, and wondered how this woman suddenly became so gentle...... It's kind of weird.
A moment later, Li Guangbi came.
Li Guangbi didn't expect that Zhang Jie would receive him in the inner room, and his expression was a little uneasy.
Zhang Li's trust and reliance came too quickly and suddenly, and he is still a little uncomfortable.
"The Metropolitan Governor, the last general Li Guangbi to meet you. Baidu search the title of the book and see it" Li Guangbi bowed outside the screen and bowed.
Zhang Li smiled loudly, "General Li, please come in." ”
Li Guangbi walked in respectfully, and Zhang Yi got up to greet him, naturally a little flattered.
"The Governor, the last general will not dare to be."
"Hehe, please take a seat. Ben Shuai temporarily remembered some things, so I asked you to say a few more words. Zhang Mao walked in front of the military map hanging on the wall, looked up at a certain place on the map, and was silent.
Li Guangbi didn't dare to slack off, with Zhang Li's temperament, how could it be that he "remembered something temporarily", but it must have been arranged a long time ago. He also walked over and stood behind Zhang Jie, also looking at the map.
Zhang Li suddenly drew a circle on the map at the location of the border between Tang and Tibet, and said indifferently, "General Li, do you know this place?" ”
Li Guangbi glanced at it, his eyes showed a slight surprise, and he said softly, "Dadu Governor, this is the hometown of Tuyuhun, which has been occupied by the Tubo people. ”
"In the first year of Xianheng, the Tubo people destroyed Tuyuhun, and the remnants of Tuyuhun fled into the territory of my Tang Dynasty. At this moment, Tuyuhun Khan is Grubo. The tribe has a hundred thousand people. ”
Li Guangbi gently introduced the situation to Zhang Jie, in fact, Zhang Zhang had already understood it thoroughly. It's just that when Li Guangbi said it, he still nodded silently, and his expression became solemn.
"General Li, this marshal asked you to garrison Hejiao to guard against the invasion of Tuqiang. But this is not the ultimate goal of Ben Shuai, do you understand what Ben Shuai means? ”
A hint of surprise immediately flashed in Li Guangbi's eyes, and he hesitated for a moment and said respectfully, "Isn't Dadu Governor Mo trying to take the opportunity to recover Tuyuhun's hometown?" ”
"Yes." Zhang Qi said angrily, "Ben Shuai has this intention. ”
Li Guangbi got confirmation from Zhang Li's mouth with his own ears, and his whole body was shocked, but he couldn't say a word. There were frequent wars between the Tang and Tibetans, but for the Tang Dynasty, most of them were passive defenses, the Tubo people invaded and the Tang people counterattacked, and they rarely captured the territory of the Tang Dynasty.
Li Guangbi never expected that Zhang Li would have such an earth-shattering mind.
This is a master who can do great things. Li Guangbi's heart was shaking, and his heart was filled with an inexplicable emotion.
"General Li, the Tuchu people have repeatedly invaded our borders, and the battles are frequent, costing the people and money. Ben Shuai has been thinking, why can our army only be passively defensive? Why can't I, the Tang Iron Cavalry, encroach on the place of the Tubo people? Datang was so self-denying and courteous, instead of making the Tubo people grateful, their ambitions continued to expand. ”
"What the official means, we should also return the color. General Li went to the front line of Hejiao to station troops, ready to seize Tuyuhun's hometown at any time. Ben Shuai will find an opportunity to order people to pass on the Tuyuhun department, and order 100,000 people in Tuyuhun to wait and drive into Tuyuhun's hometown. ”
"If we can successfully take the hometown of Tuyuhun, General Li will be a great hero of my Tang Dynasty's opening up of territory, and the future marquis is just around the corner!"
Yes, if you can open up the territory, wouldn't you be a famous minister of the Tang Dynasty and go down in history...... Leave a name through the ages! Zhang Li's voice was impassioned, and Li Guangbi's heart was at a peak.
It's just that Li Guangbi is calm, although his emotions are mobilized by the grand blueprint outlined by Zhang Mao, he still has some hesitation in his heart.
He arched his hand and said, "The Grand Duke, the last general..." If you have something to say, Ben Shuai listens. ”
"Dadu Governor, in the opinion of the last general, if the Tubo people do not believe their words and invade our border under the pretext of peace, our army will take advantage of the situation to invade Tuyuhun and occupy Tuyuhun's homeland. The difficulty is that it can't be kept. Our army is stationed alone in the territory of the defense and storage area, and the problem of long-term garrison is too great. ”
Li Guangbi's face was solemn and said softly and respectfully.
Zhang Yi smiled and picked it on the map with his hand, "Tuyuhun's hometown is adjacent to the first line of my river, so it can be said that they are separated from each other." If General Li occupies Tuyuhun's hometown, the commander will report to the imperial court, advance the defense of the two prefectures of Hejiao by 300 miles, and bring the entire Tuyuhun hometown under the jurisdiction of our Longshuo Metropolitan Governor's Office. ”
"The border line is moving forward, and the commander can allocate at least 30,000 military horses to General Li. At this time, the 100,000 Tuyuhun people were migrated into their hometowns as a whole, and all of them were handed over to General Li's command. ”
"The total number of Tibetan soldiers and horses is less than 200,000. In addition to passing through the countries of the Western Regions, the Tubo people can mobilize at most more than 100,000 soldiers and horses to resist our Tang Dynasty. And Ge Shuhan in Hexi and An Sishun in Jiannan will at least contain tens of thousands of troops and horses in Tubo, and the first-line army of Wolongshuo can also contain tens of thousands of people...... In other words, the Tubo people could not gather more than 30,000 troops to attack Tuyuhun. ”
"Backed by the Datang River, the food supply is safe. With 30,000 soldiers and horses plus the Tuyuhun tribe to resist 30,000 Tuchu cavalry, there should be no problem with General Li's talent. ”
"Of course, it cannot be ruled out that the Tubo people will take risks and gather soldiers and horses from all over the country to attack Tuyuhun's hometown, but if that is the case, Ben Shuai should also gather Longshuo soldiers and horses to rescue General Li. Even, it will unite with Hexi and Jiannan to form a three-way attack and destroy Tuchu! ”
"This official wants to ask General Li, do you have such ambitions, can you dare to open up territory with this commander?" Zhang Qi smiled loudly and waved his hand vigorously.
Li Guangbi's expression was clear, he bowed down, and said angrily, "The Governor of the Metropolitan is far-sighted and ambitious, and the general will dare not to die for the Governor of the Metropolis!" ”
Zhang Jie laughed, "Okay, very good." ”
"General Li, for the time being, this is just a kind of strategic planning, you are on the front line of Hejiao, get ready, when to launch, wait for the commander's military order! Ben Shuai hopes that General Li can complete the invasion of Tuyuhun's hometown within three days of the arrival of Ben Marshal Commander's order! ”
"With lightning speed, take the hometown of Tuyuhun!"
Li Guangbi soon led his army to Ha Jue. And the mobilization of troops and horses in Longshuo has long been carried out in secret. Despite this, some sensitive merchants and border people still found some clues, speculating whether the imperial court was going to war with the Tubo people again.
In this era of carriages and horses on foot, it will take at least half a month for Zhang Jie's repeated military deployments to be truly in place.
There is no way to do this, and Zhang Zhang can't invent airplanes, cannons, and telephones and cars in this era, so he can only wait silently.
Zhang Li handed over the administrative operations of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion to Zhang Xun, and handed over the military affairs to Guo Ziyi, demanding that Guo Ziyi immediately reorganize the army for war.
As for Nan Jiyun and Lei Wanchun, Zhang Mao has placed the two in the army, hoping that they can integrate into the Longshuo army in the shortest possible time.
After all, the two of them are generals who lead the army to fight, and the stage should be in the army, and it is a bit of a waste to follow Zhang Jie's side as an escort all day long.
For several days, Zhang Mao took people around the city of Lingzhou to understand the customs and customs of Lingzhou.
Of course, Lingzhou City cannot be compared with Chang'an, and it cannot even be compared with Puzhou, which Zhang Yi led his army to pass by that day. After all, it is located on the border, far away from the power center of the Tang Dynasty.
However, because it is the seat of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion of Longshuo and the "capital" of dozens of surrounding states and counties, Lingzhou is also quite prosperous. At the very least, the merchant trade was prosperous.
The most shops in Lingzhou City are gathered, and merchants from the inland of Chang'an and Datang gather, which is a trade distribution center.
The commercial materials sent from the Tang Dynasty to Tubo, Huifu and the Western Regions basically had to transit in Lingzhou.
Out of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, Zhang Li walked all the way with light steps.
Hua Nuer and Xiao Shisanlang hurriedly took a few soldiers who made up as ordinary domestic slaves to catch up, although Zhang Li didn't think that there would be any problems with his safety in this Lingzhou, but Hua Nuer and Xiao Shisanlang were still not at ease, and he had to protect himself every day when he went out.
Khan, there is an activity in the unit on Saturday, I drink too much, I get drunk for a long time, I hurt my body, and the old fish is ashamed...... I wanted to take advantage of the weekend to update more...... But......
