In January of the second year of Xianqing, the Tang army was invited by the empress of the Wa State to engage 80,000 rebels in the capital of the Wa Kingdom.

The Tang army only dispatched more than 10,000 people, and it took half an hour to completely defeat the enemy army, and there were no casualties. The rebels of the Japanese Kingdom lost more than 8,000 lives and were wounded countless times.

This stop completely established the status of the Tang Army in the Wa Kingdom. The empress of the Wa Kingdom was willing to accept the title of Tang Army, changed her title to the king, and handed over the ruling power of the Wa State to the Tang Dynasty.

And since then, the royal family of the Wa Kingdom has become popular with smoking guns, and it is said that smoking a puff can be infinitely happy, and smoking every day can be even more fluttering......

In February, the Tang army wiped out the diehards in the territory of the Japanese state, including three nobles and five generals, killing more than 30,000 soldiers, and only a few dozen of the Tang army were slightly injured, of which 15 were improperly operated by the cannons, and were crushed by the wheels or injured by the explosion.

In March, when the Tang army returned from the Wa Kingdom and the war report reached the imperial court, Li Zhi was overjoyed, immediately organized officials, and arranged for men and horses to go to the Wa State to bring the island country into the land of the Tang Dynasty.

After returning to the territory of Datang, Chen Fei took a small treasure boat to Jiangcheng, and then returned to Chang'an by land from Jiangcheng.

When he returned, he presented Li Zhi with a treasure, which was said to be a fruit that could strengthen his body by eating, which he accidentally found overseas. He once got this fruit unexpectedly, and he once gave it to Li Mingda, and the effect was remarkable.

Li Zhi didn't believe it and found Li Mingda. Li Mingda has reached the twenty-ninth year of flowering, the little girl is slim and elegant, and she has perfectly inherited the excellent genes of the eldest grandson queen, and is very humble, like the original eldest grandson queen, she interceded for many ministers and avoided their capital crimes.

I heard that Li Mingda already had a marriage contract, and the other party was a certain boy of the Li family in Longxi, and it was said that he fell in love with Li Mingda at first sight, and Li Zhi also obeyed Li Mingda's wishes and gave the two of them a marriage.

Tsk, what a lucky kid. Chen Fei sighed slightly in his heart. I didn't expect that the little cute girl who was begging for her own baby was also slim, and when she reached the age of getting married, the years passed so fast.

"That's the kind of fruit! That's what Mingda ate in the first place! Uncle Yao God gave it to me, and I still remember the taste! Li Mingda ate a fruit and said happily: "Sweet and sour, very delicious!" And Mingda's body is indeed getting better and better after eating this fruit, and after so many years, he has hardly ever been sick. ”

"Really? Is it so amazing? General Li Zhi was suspicious.

"Since Your Majesty doesn't believe it, then the minister should bring this fruit back, the so-called good things can't be wasted, and the minister decided to go back and share them with his own snacks......"

"Wait!" Li Zhi saw that Chen Fei was leaving, stopped him, and very quickly snatched the bag of fruits from his hand, and counted out eight fruits for Chen Fei: "Aiqing is lucky, you can take these fruits back, it's just right to go back one by one." Although these fruits are not the 'fruits of immortality' that you told me at the beginning, since they have this miraculous effect, I will laugh at them. Well, that's all. ”

Chen Fei smiled dumbly, he couldn't imagine that Li Zhi was also a duplicitous person, saying no, but in his heart he didn't want to.

"Thank you Your Majesty for the reward, but this fruit can only enhance a person's physique, not immortality, and the minister did not find the elixir of life in the Wa Kingdom."

Li Zhi waved his hand and laughed: "Zicheng, I don't believe in the deceptive thing like the elixir, I just gave me a reason to convince myself, I don't believe that there is really such a thing as an elixir in the world, and I don't want to live for hundreds or thousands of years, it has really become what you call a long live." If that's the case, wouldn't you become a monster? But this is the fruit of which you spoke...... If that kind of miracle work, I'll reward you! Ha ha! I've been having a lot of headaches lately, and I wish I could get better after eating this fruit. As he spoke, Li Zhi patted his head, his expression a little helpless.

Li Mingda muttered: "Your Majesty is often busy reviewing and folding until midnight, and your body must be tired, so you have to rest well." ”

Chen Fei was moved in his heart, Li Zhi did suffer from brain disease and qi disease in history, and his life span was not too long, he didn't expect to have signs so early, I hope that eating this fruit can make his body better, at least don't let go so early, he doesn't have time to lay out.

Six months later, in the golden autumn season, the Western Turks, the neighbors to the west of the Tang Dynasty, invaded the territory of Anxi Duhufu because of food shortage, robbed the Silk Road merchants, and killed in the villages, burned and looted countless people.

Li Zhi was furious, he had repeatedly tolerated the Western Turks over the years, and for the sake of the other party, he didn't do anything out of the ordinary, so he didn't have the intention of sending troops to attack, but this time...... More than 100,000 people on the other side ran to his own territory to spread wild, if he didn't express his position, it would be too much!

And he hates it when others say he's a wreck!

After repelling the harassment and invasion of the Western Turks, in March of the following year, Li Zhi ordered Cheng to make Jin the chief of the marching army, leading 100,000 troops to attack the Western Turks.

Li Zhi only gave Cheng Yanjin one order - if you don't destroy the Western Turks, you won't be allowed to come back!

Although Cheng Yanjin is only seventy years old, his health is still very good, and it is estimated that it has something to do with his lack of heart and lungs to eat and drink every day.

Ten days later, the army was assembled, and Cheng Yanjin led the army westward. Of course, Chen Fei was also indispensable on this expedition, but Li Zhi specially approved and allowed Chen Yu, Chen Wen, and Yin Wu to serve as guards and follow Chen Fei on the expedition.

Both Yu'er and Wu'er donned a silver-white armor and, like their father, were heroic. Wen'er wore a set of red armor, but he brought a lot of books with him when he traveled, including military books and some physical books, which was called "learning by doing".

It is worth mentioning that when he learned that all three men in his family were going to go on the expedition before the expedition, Linchuan ran to Li Zhi and cried for a whole day.

In this regard, Yu'er continued to complain along the way, but soon, his complaints were diluted by the freshness of the expedition.

Next for them is the Great Desert! They couldn't rely too much on gunpowder and other weapons, because they had to deal with one of the most powerful cavalry in the world, and the cannons, fire-flying crows and other weapons were too bulky, so they didn't have them, and the only weapons they could use were thunderbolts, mines, and a hundred pots.

However, the Tang army often had small frictions with the Western Turks, and the other party also knew the characteristics of Thunderbolt, and in general, the effect was not as good as before.

So...... It's going to be a very tough battle, and it's going to be very important.

If it wins, it can surround the Arab Empire and take it at any time, and if it is defeated, it may be that for a long time in the future, the Tang Dynasty will not be able to set foot here. Who knows how strong the Arab Empire will be after ten or twenty years of the Western Turks?

Therefore, in this battle, you can't lose, you can only win!
