Duan Lun wanted to make a detailed distinction between Luozhou and Chang'an, but he was still a little uncertain at the moment.

One is to let Yu Ren come to explore the breath first, and the other is to continue to think about it for a while and see how to choose.

After all, Chang'an is the national capital, and many resources are not available in Luozhou, so the path of development cannot be the same.

Li Yuanji supports this idea.

Although there are many rich people, there are more civilians, and the profits brought by civilians are not necessarily low.

Of course, everything can't be measured in terms of money alone.

The domestic development is smooth, although the speed is a little slow, but this is also something that cannot be helped.

Transportation, communication, just like this, even if you want to stride fast, it is unrealistic.

Even after the opening of the railway, which was built at great cost and effort, it could only radiate a range of hundreds of miles from Chang'an to the vicinity of Luozhou.

Therefore, sometimes Li Yuanji feels very anxious, but there is no way to just catch the urgency, this kind of thing can only be done step by step, and if the infrastructure is not done well, it is impossible to take off.

Of course, some people call the current Datang a sign of prosperity.

But Li Yuanji was not fooled by these nonsense, is this the prosperous age?

Their so-called prosperous era is nothing more than that the people do not have to worry about food and clothing, the taxes are not high, and the money and grain in the treasury are piled up.

But Li Yuanji wants a prosperous world, but not just such things, he wants more.

is not the Tang Dynasty that is called the prosperous era now, but the Tang Dynasty that will always be called the prosperous era.

From a emperor who is only trying to live, to now determined to build an invincible and prosperous emperor, even Li Yuanji can't tell what things have changed him, and when did all this start?

There is no smooth sailing in all things, and there can be no smooth sailing forever.

Just when Li Yuanji felt that all this was under control, he received a battle report, as if a basin of cold water had been poured down in winter, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day.

For several months, the front line has been fighting so smoothly that Li Yuanji even had to ignore the fact that the distant border areas were still fighting.

Li Jing's troops were like a bamboo, and after seizing the high ground, they immediately turned to local defense, not only building a large number of fortifications, but also building them into a military fortress.

During this period, the Tibetans even organized two attacks, with an interval of half a month.

The first time was during the day, and as a result, the Tibetans naturally suffered heavy losses, leaving behind a lot of corpses and returning in vain.

The second time was at night, fighting at night, no one wanted to, even if there was a night battle, the trained Tang army was not willing, but the enemy came, there was nothing to do, so he could only do it.

As a result, the enemy naturally rushed to the position, but the Tubo people who dismounted, even with the help of the cover of night, still did not occupy any advantage.

Leaving a body full of corpses again, he finally fled in a hurry, and when he fled, he was warmly sent off by Li Jing with the gift of artillery fire.

As for Su Dingfang's side, it was even smoother.

The powerful Tuyuhun was completely vulnerable in front of an army of more than 100,000 people, and Su Dingfang's troops were divided into three ways and attacked Tuyuhun from three places at the same time.

Su Dingfang's troops entered the trap set by Fu Yun, the Khan of Tuyuhun, but with the strong combat effectiveness of the Tang army, they did not retreat and counterattacked, and only defeated Fu Yun's headquarters with slight losses, and then pursued them all the way, capturing Murong Xiaojun, Fu Yun's heart's heart, killing nearly 10,000 enemies and seizing tens of thousands of miscellaneous animals, so that Fu Yun's headquarters no longer had the power to fight a decisive battle.

The other two divisions also achieved great results, three battlefields, a total of more than 20,000 enemies were annihilated, tens of thousands of prisoners were captured, and hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep were captured.

Although Fu Yun ran away, Tuyuhun died, and the entire Tuyuhun was trampled under the feet of hundreds of thousands of Tang troops.

"What the hell is going on?" The original good mood was swept away, replaced by dark clouds on his forehead, looking at Cheng Zhijie, the secretary of the military department, I hated to go to the front line in person.

"The other party is very cunning, and both sides have been shaded!" Cheng Zhijie said in a low voice.

"Huh?" Li Yuanji was stunned, was yin? There is the eldest grandson Wuji on the Tubo side, and it is normal to be overshadowed, but what is going on on in Tuyuhun?

Say Su Dingfang is too young? Inexperienced?

Although Su Dingfang is the main general, but by his side, he has arranged for him to be an old fritter like Li Tao, the secretary of the former military department, even if the eldest grandson Wuji is in person, he may not be able to fight Li Tao, and the strength of the Tang Army is not weak, as long as he does not make mistakes, it is some conspiracy and trickery, and it may not have much impact on the Tang Army.

Faintly, Li Yuanji felt that this matter seemed to be a little unusual.

"Let's talk about Pharmacist Li's side first, his problem is more serious, after the second attack, the Tubo people did not take away their corpses, but let the corpses be placed there at will, as the weather gets hotter, the problem naturally arises, although Li Jing sent someone to clean up the corpse in time afterwards, but some soldiers still suffered from infection. Moreover, the other party changed its strategy and adopted the tactics of encircling but not attacking, and encircling layer by layer, so Li Yaoshi's department was faced with the problem of running out of food, and after sending this military information back, Li Yaoshi was forced to lead his troops to break through the encirclement and leave the constructed position. Cheng Zhijie was not in a hurry, and said in a tone that was not chaotic at all.

Li Yuanji frowned tightly, this move is very vicious and inhumane, but who cares if you have humanity on the battlefield? Who knows what human nature is?

Using the dilapidated corpses, using the rising temperature, the corpses quickly decayed, and through gas, through all means, the bacteria were brought to Li Jingbu, so that more Tang troops died without a fight.

In addition, they even adopted the tactics of encircling without attacking, and encircled layer by layer, and their purpose was to directly cut off the logistical supply of Li Jing's troops.

Although the baggage team is also the main force, the number is too small, and it carries a large amount of supplies and food, and it can resist when encountering a small enemy army, but if it encounters the main force of the enemy, or several times the number of ambushes, it can only bow down.

"It seems that the eldest grandson Wuji has not completely gained the trust of the Tubo people, but after this battle, the eldest grandson Wuji is afraid that he has already gained their trust!" Sighing, it is not difficult to see from these means that the first attack is like the way of the Tubo people, brave and brainless, just bury your head and rush, and the rest seems to have nothing to do with it.

But the second attack, the night battle, got closer, deliberately leaving the corpses and not taking them away.

Whether ancient or modern, no matter what country or what power.

There is an unwritten rule on both sides that after a battle, each can send an unequipped unit to collect the body, and during this time, no one will initiate an attack.

Perhaps because he was worried that no one would collect his body after his death, every soldier, every officer, and every general attached great importance to this.

plus the hand behind it, it looks like the handwriting of the eldest grandson Wuji.

It is more appropriate to send the corpse up at night than to attack at night.

It's ruthless, it's inhumane, it's the same for yourself and for the other person, but you can never expect a mad person to make any rational decisions, that's not realistic.

Li Jing's approach was right, he continued to defend to the death, and he could only survive until the grain and grass were consumed and then die there, so he had two choices, with a force of 40,000 people to fight to the death the main force of Tubo, how much he could fight, how much he could grab, and what he grabbed was their food.

The other option was to go all the way east, and go back the way they came, and it would be impossible for them to stop until they saw the baggage team.

No matter which choice is made, the problem is not big, as long as the grain and grass are replenished, the Tang army can instantly recover its combat effectiveness, and it is the main force of 100,000 Tibetans, and they are still not afraid.

"Where's Tuyuhun?" What puzzled Li Yuanji the most was Tuyuhun's side, if there was a problem on Tuyuhun's side, it would be the real trouble.

If you can't attract the main force of Tubo, and you can't attack Tubo in the south for a while, then the hundreds of thousands of people you have arranged are no different from those who have not been arranged.

"It's not a big problem, but it's disgusting." Cheng Zhijie shrugged helplessly, he was already desperate for this.

"Tuyuhun's main force is gone, but Fu Yun is still there, Su Dingfang and they looked around for Fu Yun's main force, and they used it openly and secretly, but they couldn't find the main force, and some things that happened recently made them feel that what we were most worried about had happened."

"You mean?" Li Yuanji's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe it, with the IQ of the Tuyuhun people, how could he think of such a method? Even if they thought of it, Su Dingfang and the others would have no countermeasures?

"It's worse than we thought." Cheng Zhijie nodded, his face was still full of helplessness, and continued: "All the water sources that can be seen have been polluted by them, some have thrown two or three dead sheep, and many have thrown dozens directly, all of them are tied with ropes, and big stones are tied down and placed in the middle of the water. It seems that we don't want these dead cattle and sheep to become our rations, so these cattle and sheep are all poisoned, and a few cuts are made on their bodies to accelerate their decay.

I just cleared out a piece of water, and waited a few days for the water here to flow to other places, but the upstream floated over again, and asked a lot of local elders, they only said that it was made by dozens of Tuyuhun people, and they ran away after they were done, and the whole process was less than the work of tea.

In addition, the baggage team also encountered the tail, and was attacked several times during the night, and the loss was not large, but it slowed down their speed, anyway, how disgusting it came, you can imagine, everything is happening there. ”

Broken into pieces, sparrow warfare, the original version of biochemical warfare, do not fight with the main force, only drag the Tang army to death through this small-scale sneak attack, disturbance, etc., if they can't all be killed, this treatment will always accompany the Tang army until the Tang army withdraws from Tuyuhun.

Historically, Tuyuhun has not been so difficult to fight, at least not in such a desperate way.

Li Yuanji frowned tightly, thinking of the eldest grandson Wuji's madness, as crazy as losing his mind.

Is this also the method of the eldest grandson Wuji? ’
