Chapter 208 The letter was reported to Chang'an, and Li Er used troops
After Bai Fan sent the eagle Xiao Feifei to deliver the letter to Li Xiaogong, Xiao Feifei came back with a reply, seeing Li Xiaogong's reply and worry, Bai Fan also knew that it was not easy to act, and he could only rely on himself!
Resume the method when you came again, Xiao Feifei led the way in the sky, and the army took the horse team to go out day and night, and tried to rush to the territory of Datang in ten days!
And Li Xiaogong rushed 800 miles, Liangzhou to Chang'an to deliver the letter, day and night non-stop, and finally sent the letter to Chang'an!
The messenger had already fainted on the ground before he saw the emperor, and it was the city gate commander who brought back the secret letter!
Seeing what Li Xiaogong said, Li Er's heart was also pinched together, one was whether the three thousand Xuanjia and Bai Fan and others could block the attack of the Western Turks, and the other was whether the envoy Tang Jian could withstand the pressure and win a glimmer of life for Bai Fan and them!
Urgently summoned Fang, Du, and the eldest grandson, as well as the military Li Jing to come to the meeting!
After informing everyone of the military situation, everyone also fell into contemplation and calculation!
"Your Majesty, this operation was originally a secret war, and we waited for Datang to send a small team of men and horses to lurk behind the enemy army to carry out secret missions, which was already extremely dangerous, and now I want to retreat with all my body, it is basically impossible!
Lao Chen had read a military book called Special Operations in Zhongnan Academy, and this time Bai Fan and their actions were like this!
Camouflage and stealth, secretly carry out important tasks, militarily is extremely powerful, but if the secrecy is not done well, it is easy to be surrounded by the army, and then the whole army is annihilated, after all, it is to fight in the tiger's den! Li Jing said solemnly.
Li Er sighed and said, "I don't know, but according to the letter, it was the will of heaven that made people, just in the two months that the horses lost their leader, the horses were discovered by the steppe barbarians, if it wasn't for Bai Fan and their timely departure, it is estimated that thousands of horses have been captured by the Western Turks!"
Now Bai Fan is sneaking back, although we can't quench our thirst in Chang'an, but looking for you is to find a way, see if there is any way to save it, the matter is revealed, even if you don't want those horses, as long as people come back! ”
Several people can hear the true feelings in the emperor's mouth, but it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, in other people's territory, unless the Tang army presses the territory and forces the Western Turks not to dare to fight back, otherwise, as long as there are two days, the Western Turks can mobilize tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to surround the Xuanjia Army!
Du Ruhui was the first to speak, "Your Majesty, the ministers are incompetent, and they really can't solve this catastrophe, unless our Tang Dynasty has the overwhelming strength to force the Western Turks, otherwise, the Xuanjia Army will definitely have a fierce battle within the Western Turks!"
If you can fight your way out of the encirclement and fight your way out, then it is possible to escape back to Datang, if not, then ...... It is very likely to be a catastrophe! ”
The eldest grandson Wuji opened his mouth and said, "At that time, it is estimated that the Western Turks will tear their faces apart with us!" After all, we went to other people's countries to catch BMW, and we can't stand up in righteousness! ”
"Not necessarily, the Western Turks still rely on our wool trade, and last year they had a warm winter in the wool business, so can such a good thing be easily abandoned?
This is also the meaning of our dispatch of Tang Jian's envoy, if the Western Turks are really afraid of this matter, we still have hope! Fang Xuanling stroked his beard and said.
Li Jing thought of his nephew's safety, stepped forward and said loudly, "Your Majesty, the old minister invites to fight!" Since the Xuanjia Army will inevitably fight viciously, then once there are casualties at that time, we will inevitably tear our faces with the Western Turks!
In this case, why don't we take advantage of the situation to enter the hinterland of the Western Turks and rescue the Xuanjia Army? Wait until the army returns home safely, and then go to the negotiations, and then there will be no handle in their hands, and we will not talk as much as we want? ”
Li Er clapped his hands and laughed after hearing this, "Yes, the pharmacist's words are deeply rooted in the essence of the soldiers, since the situation is already like this, then we will prepare for the worst outcome!"
No matter what the result is, if the Western Turks kill our Tang Dynasty soldiers, the two countries will be enemy countries, and they will tear their faces, then let's fight!
Ladies and gentlemen, the Great War is coming, and it is time to use the army!
First work together to pass this hurdle, minimize the loss of personnel, and then talk about other things after the war, no matter the cause and all the faults, I will bear it with all my might! ”
"For the Tang Dynasty, the ministers are willing to serve their lives!" The crowd saluted in unison.
"Li Jing listened to the order and ordered you to be the general manager of the march of Longyou Dao, immediately lead the left military guard to Liangzhou, command all the soldiers and horses of Liangzhou and Lingzhou, and preside over the northward rescue and fight against the Western Turks, and you are the commander-in-chief of all military affairs!"
"The old minister takes the order!"
"Fang Xuanling listens to the order, you are in Liangzhou, the governor's army is food and grass logistics, and everything is deployed by you!"
"The old minister takes the order!"
"Du Ruhui listens to the order, you sit in Chang'an with me, check and fill in the gaps, prepare for all major war and military supplies, and deal with emergencies!"
"Command!"
"The eldest grandson Wuji listens to the order, you immediately go to Bingzhou to meet Li Ji, bring the holy decree, and order Li Ji to be the general manager of the march of the Datang River North Road, the governor and all the military forces in Youzhou, and change the coercion of Jieli to a feint Jieli, and you must drag the Eastern Turks on the east road to win time for the Northwest Xuanjia Army to return home!
Mowgli, you go and do logistics for Mao Gong! We must not let the Eastern and Western Turks unite to surround our Xuanjia Army! ”
"Command!"
"Someone, bring wine!" Li Er shouted, and the waiter in the back walked quickly with a pot of spirits and a few wine glasses!
Li Er personally poured them one by one and served them to several henchmen, "Everyone, drink it full!"
The Xuanjia soldiers are working hard for Datang, and we are going to open a way home for them!
I'm please! ”
"Ten thousand years of Datang!" Several people shouted at the same time, raising their glasses and drinking them all!
Youzhou and Yunzhou, without Li Er's order, have now changed the way of fighting!
Because from the initial friction and harassment, more than 20 days have passed now, and the two sides have been killed and injured because of the friction, and the two gangs have already grinded out the fire, so even Chai Shao, who is a good old man in Youzhou, has changed the way of attacking, and has brought 20,000 troops over, and often sends vanguard armies to drown!
It's just a pure contest of a few thousand people, first fight the generals, then fight the soldiers, a little bit more! If there is no big war, just use this way to compete in a low-key manner!
The Turkic side was on the defensive this time, and Jieli thought that Datang was going to attack the Turkic nest and prepare for the war of annihilation, but in fact, half a month later, he found that Datang was only the border of Chen Bing, and did not enter inward, which made Jieli feel a little fooled, and he didn't understand why Datang thundered and rained a little this time!
But after twenty days, these are no longer important, there are already soldiers killed and wounded on both sides, so the battle after that is to avenge the comrades!
So when Li Er's holy decree arrived in Li Ji's hands, Li Ji smiled, thinking that he had been waiting for His Majesty's order for a long time, and the sons and daughters could enter the Turks to try the blade!
On the other side of the Turkic side, the army has gathered 100,000 people, but some of them lack generals!
In the ninth year of Wude, the first battle of the Tang Dynasty against the Turks, the Turks broke the left and right Xianwang, the leader of Tiele Qibi He Li, and later took advantage of the locust plague to attack Yunzhou and lost his thinking power, and when the Tang Dynasty monarchs and ministers were ambushed in Chang'an, they folded Ashinadur!
So now there are not many famous generals who can come out of the Turks, and the famous ones are the Turkic Little Khan, Ashina Simo, and the new successor of the left and right kings!
Sent the little Khan of Tuli to lead 40,000 soldiers and horses to fight Chai Shao in Youzhou, and Jieli personally led 60,000 soldiers and horses to fight against Li Ji in Yunzhou!
