Yu Plateau used to be a barren wasteland in the eyes of Great Qin, so since General Wei Yan led his troops across the plateau several times to attack the Kushan Dynasty and forced it to cede its sphere of influence in Hezhong, Great Qin never had a legion on the plateau again, and Yizhou at most did some business with some scattered small tribes, ignoring the prosperity of the indigenous tribes on the plateau, which directly led to the rise of Tibet.

"According to the current information, the population of Tibet is about two million, and the total number of troops is between 300,000 and 400,000." The commentator's lieutenant said quietly, his numbers did not surprise Cao Anmin and Li Ang too much, the number of nomadic troops is always amazing, after all, according to their habits, as long as it is a man, he can be regarded as a soldier if he can draw a bow, if it is according to the standard of the Great Qin army, their 400,000 army combat power is equivalent to 60,000 to 80,000 Great Qin troops at most, but 400,000 is just the number they have done their best, and it cannot be counted.

"According to our calculations, Tubo has a standing army that can be mobilized at any time at most, 100,000, or even less, and the real elite divisions among them are probably less than 30,000." After the lieutenant finished speaking, he looked at the commander-in-chief, only to see the commander-in-chief nodding, and someone on the side sent a few broken scimitars.

Cao Anmin and Li Ang took the broken scimitars, and a cold light flashed in their eyes, although these scimitars looked very crude, but the blades were quite sharp, and they could naturally see that these scimitars were made of Uzi steel produced in India.

Cao Anmin sneered and put down the scimitar in his hand, "The Guishan people are so bold. "The only one who can get Wuzi Steel, except for Daqin, who is the suzerainty of Tianzhu, is the Kushan Dynasty located in North India, and Cao Anmin is sure that Tubo has the support of the Kushan people behind him before he dared to attack the city of Daqin last year.

Seeing that Cao Anmin's words were murderous, those staff officers all eyes became sharp, for them. The whole glory of being a soldier lies in the hegemony of the state, and the provocation of hegemony is tantamount to an insult to them. "Your Majesty, the last thought is that we must stop Tibet before it can unify the plateau." A lieutenant suddenly stepped forward. After giving a military salute to Cao Anmin, he said.

"Li Qing, what do you think?" Cao Anmin didn't answer the captain, but looked at Li Ang beside him, Li Ang was the general he wanted to go to the plateau, he naturally wanted to see if he had any ideas.

"Your Majesty, originally Tubo was at most a newly rising small country on the plateau, and its national strength would not be enough to resist my Great Qin, but now there are Kushan people secretly supporting it. In addition, the terrain and climate of the plateau are unfavorable to our army, if they are given a few years, I am afraid it will be a problem for my Great Qin's henchmen. Knowing that the Tang Empire suffered from Tibet in later generations, Li Ang had already decided to strangle the rising Tibet in the cradle and never give them any chance.

"Are you in favor of sending troops to Tibet immediately?" Seeing the fierce look on Li Ang's face, Cao Anmin couldn't help but be shocked. He remembered that at first Leon was not in favor of an immediate and large-scale march to the plateau, but now he had changed his mind. And so resolutely.

"The situation has changed, Your Majesty." Li Ang looked at Cao Anmin and said, "If we can't defeat the Tibetans in a short period of time and be stabilized by them, we want to exterminate them." It's a lot more troublesome. ”

"How many troops do you want?" Cao Anmin was also a decisive monarch. He asked Li Angdao directly, but his words made the staff officers on the side unconsciously straighten up, while the chief on the side looked at the scene in front of him. But he unconsciously recalled the past, and in front of these young people, he was already old.

"In addition to the 10,000 soldiers and horses in the minister's headquarters, the minister only needs His Majesty to give another 50,000 soldiers and horses." Li Ang replied that for him, the army is not too many but fine, Tubo claims to be 400,000 troops, but in fact he can mobilize less than 100,000 soldiers and horses, as long as he moves quickly, he can fight under the city of Luo before the Tubo people react, as long as he kills Da Bu Nisai, Nang Ri Ronzan father and son, and knocks Tubo back to its original torn apart, Daqin will be able to free up his hands to slowly clean up these small tribes.

"I'll give you 50,000, and the four major capital protector goblins are up to you." Cao Anmin did not hesitate, but he completely handed over the first battle after ascending the throne to Li Ang, this trust is not insignificant, and Rao is Li Ang couldn't help but accept this edict in a deep voice.

"The minister will definitely live up to the grace of God and exterminate the rebellion of Tibet." After Li Ang finished speaking, he and a group of White Tiger Festival lieutenants and staff officers watched Cao Anmin leave. After Cao Anmin left, Li Ang was surrounded by those staff officers, and each of them wanted to go out with Li Ang, after all, the elite soldiers of the four major protectorates were chosen at will, if they couldn't win the Tubo people in this way, they all killed themselves to thank the world.

"That's enough." Seeing that Li Ang was surrounded by a frowning brow, the chief who had been silent spoke, of course he knew what the group of staff captains of the White Tiger Festival Hall was suitable for, and conducting large-scale strategic deduction was what they were good at, and letting them go to the plateau was just to cause chaos for Li Ang.

In the inner hall, only the chief and the big Sima and Li Ang were left, although the chief and the big Sima already had the intention of letting the young people take the position, but when they went to the plateau, they always had their concerns, and they wanted to know what Li Ang had to think about dealing with Tubo.

"The idea of the last general is that after mobilizing the army into the plateau, he will directly attack Luo, as long as the Tubo headquarters is defeated, the overall situation can be determined." Li Ang looked at the chief with serious faces and the big Sima and told him his strategy for the battle of the plateau.

"The strategy you said is indeed the most correct choice at the moment, but can you guarantee that you will capture Luo in a short period of time and kill Dabu Niesai and Nangri Ronzan father and son?" Da Sima opened his eyes that were always half-closed, stared at Li Ang and said, all the staff officers in the White Tiger Festival Hall had already made the same judgment as Li Ang, but it was easier said than done, but it was not necessarily so easy to do.

"Not long after the Tubo people built some new cities, I'm afraid that the cities have also been a little too much." Li Ang's eyes were calm, and he said his consideration, "Although Tubo currently controls the plateau, but after all, the time is not long, as long as the strength of their headquarters is weakened, and then send people to those small and medium-sized tribes to summon me Great Qin Tianwei, Tubo will inevitably be torn apart, so the final general will attack Luo, and there is no idea of succeeding in a battle, as long as the strength of Tubo is beaten to the point that they are not enough to subdue the plateau." ”

"Very realistic." The total length is final

He looked at Li Ang and said, "Give you three days, we want to listen to some general things before the battle." "Finished. The chief and the big Sima stood up and walked to the palace together, although the emperor had decided to use force, but there were some things that still had to be informed to the major families and do something.

After Leon returned to his Zhuangzi. After summoning Liu Yu and Chen Baxian and them, and telling these full-time officers and staff officers about the affairs of the chief and the great Sima to him, he locked himself in the study. After Leon left, the officers and staff officers who had been suppressed for a long time cheered, and then they began to discuss all kinds of details in groups, and even stayed up all night, just to consider the situation thoroughly.

The reason why Leon didn't discuss the battle with the others was just to see how much he could control the entire battle situation alone. The Great Qin Legion is different from the cold weapon era army of any dynasty he knows, they are infinitely close to the modern army, with a complete officer system and strictly trained soldiers, a very complete logistics system, and a high-quality staff department, it can be said that the Great Qin Legion is a completely professional army. Lead such an army into battle, as long as it is not a mediocre general. can achieve victory, but Leon is not satisfied with being a mediocre general, and winning victory at the lowest cost is what he is pursuing.

Just as Li Ang and the numerous officers and staff officers were completing their plans, Cui Hao and Li Mowen finally began their operations, after they selected several main targets in the Imperial Dao Sect. They went their separate ways.

The Imperial Sect. It was originally an inconspicuous school of Confucianism, and they revered the ancient precept of 'respecting the king and destroying the emperor', and they have always been regarded as a radical school in Confucianism. Thirty years ago, when they had not yet ascended to the Great Qin Dynasty, they were regarded by the people of the world as paying attention to the mediocre Confucian authenticity, and they had been suppressing the imperial school to death, but after they were enabled by Emperor Wen, they were corrupted and degenerated in power, and the people who had been in the land were no longer respected, and at this time, the imperial school appeared in front of the world with a new and completely different posture from the school of scriptures, they still adhered to the good morality that Confucianism insisted on, but they were not as conservative as the school of scriptures. It can be said that they give the impression of the world between traditional Confucianism and Legalism, and they seem to be more likely to please people. However, the Imperial Daoist faction did not gain much real power in the past, and they realized that in fact, their vague ideas in the past were not suitable for them to obtain power, so they made a change, they wanted to learn from Dong Zhongshu of the Han Dynasty, and exchange for the throne by winning the favor of the emperor, but Dong Zhongshu's unity of heaven and man was beaten into an evil demon by Emperor Taizu when the country was founded in Great Qin, and they could no longer use this set of 'divine authority of monarchy', so they had to be respected all the time. After all, for the past thirty years, the hegemony of Great Qin had been declining for those young people, and they could have allowed these young people to join their ranks in order to expand the influence of the Imperial Dao School, which they had in fact been doing since Emperor Wen deposed the Jing School.

In the Imperial Dao faction, there are three people who are particularly important, it can be said that without them, there would be no current power of the Imperial Dao faction, Cheng Xi, Zhu Qianyi, Fang Chengchou, these three people are the so-called 'three sages' in the Imperial Dao faction, they are all people who can speak well, and they also have the ability to write brilliantly, and they have extraordinary talent in inciting demagoguery, it is by virtue of these three people that the Imperial Dao faction can gather a large number of young people, and even some branch children of the family participate in it.

Cui Hao has to deal with Cheng Xi among the three, as the head of the 'three sages', Cheng Xi's reputation is the highest, in the eyes of everyone in the imperial sect, Cheng Xi, who has no desire and no desire, can be said to be the closest to the image of a gentleman in people's hearts, and what Cui Hao has to do is to destroy Cheng Xi's image of a gentleman.

Looking at Cheng Xi's residence, Cui Hao lowered the curtain of the car, and then looked at the blonde and blue-eyed girl sitting opposite the car in the car, this girl was originally an orphan adopted by Zhuangzi, and was later selected by Li Yanzong to become a member of the Black Hand Army. "Go ahead!" Nodding to the girl in the ragged clothes, Cui Hao let the car stop in a small alley a street away from Cheng Xi's residence.

The girl with the pseudonym Die'er disguised herself as an orphan of Greek descent who lost her parents and lived in Chang'an, walked to Cheng Xi's residence, and happened to meet Cheng Xi who had returned home, so she begged Cheng Xi to take him in, although the imperial faction was xenophobic, but Cheng Xi was a gentleman in the eyes of everyone after all, on the street, seeing this little blonde girl named Die'er begging miserably, he also had to temporarily take her in, and wait until the next day to send her to the orphanage.

Seeing Cheng Xi bring people into the house from a distance, the corners of Cui Hao's mouth floated a sneering arc, a scholar is a scholar after all, even if his mouth can speak, but after all, he is a person who has no ability. Cui Hao entered the carriage, and he didn't have to worry about the rest of the things, Cheng Xi was finished.

Cheng Xi pretended to be high, so there were few subordinates in the family, and after he took Die'er into the house, he no longer cared about this golden retriever girl who made him look uncomfortable. The night was soon dark, and in the dark, Li Yanzong took Jing Han and Jing Leng into the courtyard of Cheng Xi's house, and directly found Cheng Xi who was reading a book in the study.

Seeing Jing Han, the two brothers put their things away, Li Yanzong smiled at Cheng Xi who looked frightened in front of him, and then knocked him unconscious. Let Jing Han and Jing Leng carry him to the firewood room where Die'er was, and sat in the study by himself, waiting for the next person who was about to come, Cheng Xi's living habits had already been mastered by them. Sure enough, it didn't take long for someone to bring ginseng soup over, but Li Yanzong didn't let him in, only imitated Cheng Xi's voice to tell him to step back, and asked him to tell the others not to go to the backyard.

After making sure that the subordinate had left, Li Yanzong blew out the lights and walked all the way out, and in the dark corridor, he deceived another subordinate with a false voice, so that they could be convinced that their master had gone to the firewood room in the backyard, and there seemed to be something hidden to do.
