In the blink of an eye, a few years have passed.

In the past few years, the comprehensive national strength of the Tang Dynasty has soared, the centralization of power in the imperial court has been very successful, and the family has gradually withdrawn from officialdom and controlled several major industries.

This is the normal rhythm of national development, and Datang has also entered this rhythm.

And Ming Jian also gradually showed his military ability as he grew older. The catalytic effect of the five-bird opera is very obvious, and at the age of 14, he has grown to 175cm tall, is strong, and has learned marksmanship.

Seeing that he already had such a body, Ming Jian also married Wu Yuanhua, over the years, he insisted on his promise that there would be no more women except Wu Yuanhua, which also made Wu Yuanhua change her opinion of men, dispel the shadow of her youth, and use all her thoughts on Ming Jian alone.

Task 2 is basically completed, no accident, the Wu Zetian in history will not appear, but there is one more good wife and mother.

After getting married, Ming Jian began to shift the battlefield, preparing to join the army and fight on the battlefield.

The biggest enemy of the Tang Dynasty has now become Tibet, and the Turks have either taken refuge in the Tang Dynasty or retreated to the Western Regions, and they can no longer directly threaten the Tang Dynasty.

However, the strength of the Tubo people continued to increase, and after Li Shimin rejected Songtsen Gampo's peace and affinity, the Tubo army finally launched a full-scale attack on the Tang Dynasty in the fifteenth year of Zhenguan.

......

"Ladies and gentlemen, the Tubo army has now occupied the entire territory of Tuyuhun and launched an attack on Longyou Dao, which Aiqing is willing to take command of the expedition?"

Above the court, Li Shimin said with a solemn face.

Cheng Biting Jin jumped out and said, "Your Majesty, Lao Cheng is willing to take command and go out on the expedition to kill all the Tubo people!" ”

"The old minister is also willing!" Yu Chigong also jumped out.

These are two jokes, and whenever there is such a meeting, they are always the first to speak.

In fact, the real leaders Li Jing and Li Ji didn't say a word, and their IQ and EQ were much higher.

At this time, Ming Jian stepped forward.

"Enlighten the emperor, Tubo comprehensively challenges the Tang Dynasty, this matter is not trivial, it is related to the safety of my Datang Society, if it is defeated, the national prestige accumulated over the years will be gone! Therefore, the royal family's personal conquest can greatly boost the morale of the soldiers and deal a fatal blow to the Tubo people! The sons are willing to conquer Tibet for their father's relatives, and they also ask their father's permission to do so! ”

Li Shimin looked at this grown up son with satisfaction, and his spirit was very much like his taste back then.

Seeing this, Li Ji immediately stood up and echoed: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the King of Jin is very reasonable, and the old minister also thinks that His Royal Highness the King of Jin has the style of His Majesty back then and can do it, and the old minister is willing to help each other, not to break the Tibetan, and to swear not to give up!" ”

"The ministers are willing to assist His Royal Highness the King of Jin, and they will not give up if they do not break Tubo!" A bunch of hobs immediately chimed in.

Li Shimin nodded and said with satisfaction: "Very good, the monarch and the ministers are of the same heart, why worry about the injustice of Tibet?" Message: Feng Jin King is the generalissimo of the Tang Dynasty's soldiers and horses, control the world's soldiers and horses, and choose the day to go to the army! ”

Ming Jian said loudly: "Erchen takes orders!" ”

Before setting out for the battle, Ming Jian began to prepare armaments.

Although the gun could not be made, the advanced crossbow arrows could still be made, and the Ming Sword took out the Song Dynasty's divine arm crossbow technology and asked the Ministry of Industry to hurry up and make it.

With the Divine Arm Crossbow, coupled with the Mo Sword Formation of the Tang Dynasty, the powerful cavalry is enough to cope with the attack of Tubo.

......

On August 16 of the 17th year of Zhenguan, a decisive battle was launched in Tianshui County, and in the past two years, Ming Jian adopted the tactics of showing weakness, constantly abandoning the city, counterattacking, and then abandoning the city, and finally gradually introduced the 300,000 troops of Tubo into the encirclement of the Tang Dynasty.

The Tubo people did not know the depths, and in the face of one victory after another, their minds were dizzy, and they actually went deep into Longyou Dao and tried to attack Chang'an City.

After being blocked, they finally came to Tianshui County, but as a result, they were surrounded by the Tang Legion.

At the same time, Ming Jian used roundabout tactics to order Hou Junji, Su Dingfang, and Cheng Yanjin to lead the army to block the retreat of the Tubo army. Now these 300,000 Tibetan troops want to return to Tibet, unless they put on a pair of wings!

What is even more serious is that the supply of the Tibetan army has been completely interrupted, and its combat effectiveness has been greatly weakened.

At the beginning of the decisive battle, the Tang army's divine arm crossbow and ten thousand arrows were fired in unison, and then hundreds of Mo knife formations advanced to the front of the Tubo cavalry formation, and the cavalry outflanked and attacked from both flanks.

There was not much suspense in this kind of battle, the Tang army was already stronger than the Tibetan army, and the armament was more advanced.

Therefore, after the battle lasted for several hours, the Tibetan army suffered heavy casualties, and the 300,000 troops soon died, and many were captured, which was equivalent to the annihilation of the entire army.

When the news came back to Chang'an City, Li Shimin was full of praise for Ming Jian.

This also made Li Chengqian and Li Tai feel tremendous pressure, and the two began to intensify their struggle for imperial power.

The two were soon disgusted by Li Shimin and were abolished one after another, and Ming Jian was officially canonized as the crown prince by Li Shimin.

On the other hand, after this battle, he continued to implement the tactics in the two spaces of the Great Song Dynasty and the Great Han Dynasty, ordered the army and the people to build castles on a large scale, confronted the Tubo people in the territory of Tuyuhun, and ordered people to build galloping roads to ensure the supply line of the Tang army.

With the help of such tactics, the Tang army pressed forward step by step, counterattacking very effectively, building castles and galloping roads whenever they occupied a place, and constantly immigrating to the front.

Although there were times of failure, on the whole, the forward position was constantly moved forward.

In the border areas, a large number of tuntian systems are practiced, and the army is a soldier in wartime and a farmer in idle time.

This also ensured the supply of the army, and the increasingly wealthy Datang also allowed the materials in the rear to be transported in a steady stream, ensuring that the tactics of the Ming Sword could be realized.

Ming Jian also used a large number of Qiang people to deal with high-altitude operations, and this strategy proved to be successful.

The Qiang people also continuously transmitted their experience to the Tang army, and after running-in, the Tang army's plateau combat capability also improved rapidly.

Another tactic of Ming Jian was to refuse to sue for peace and chase the Tibetans to fight. Tubo is also a fighting nation, the Tang army did not take advantage of the Tubo people, this time there is a chance, Ming Jian intends to destroy the Tubo people first, and then attack the Turks.

However, the climatic conditions of this plateau also brought great resistance to the Tang army, and it was cold most of the time during the year.

At this time, Ming Jian invented the down jacket. Stuffing the white stacks into the military uniform, it was very warm, and the Tang army could withstand the cold.

Mingjian popularized the warm kang and developed the coal mine.

......

Another five years passed, and the Tang army's castle was built twenty miles outside the city!

The direct threat to the capital of Tibet made the rulers of Tibet very panicked, and Songtsen Gampo ordered to abandon the city of Luo and retreat into the territory of Tianzhu.

The Tang army seized the opportunity to occupy the city of Luo and quickly built a defensive line, so that the Tibetans did not have a chance to make a comeback. The main thing is to build a castle and expand the gallop road.

The war with Tubo was protracted, but it did not consume much national strength of the Tang Dynasty, although most of the occupied territory was bitter cold land, but it was of great significance.

After the Tubo retreated, it was no longer possible to attack the Tang Dynasty from the plateau, which made it much easier for the Tang Dynasty to concentrate on dealing with the Turks.

Ming Jian's series of actions have also been recognized by the Tang Dynasty monarchs, and he has now become the best candidate for the successor of the Tang Emperor.

In the twentieth year of Zhenguan, Ming Jian led the army out of Yumen Pass suddenly, attacking the Turks entrenched in the Western Regions, 500,000 troops like the autumn wind sweeping the leaves, the Turks were beaten to the ground, within two years, the entire Western Regions was pacified by the Ming Sword, and the soldiers hit as far as the Urals. 、

The Turks were swept away, and mission three was completed.

According to history, after Ming Jian's request, four towns of Anxi were set up in the Western Regions and Central Asia, and a large number of castles and galloping roads were built to connect the interior.

And at this time, Li Shimin suddenly died.

Ming Jian returned to Chang'an City and officially ascended the throne as emperor and completed task one.

After ascending the throne, Ming Jian ordained his only wife, Wu Yuanhua, to be the empress, and dismissed a large number of palace maids and eunuchs, so that Wu Yuanhua was the sole favor, therefore, Wu Yuanhua completely became a good wife and mother, and the road to the female emperor was no longer possible.

But Wu Yuanhua died suddenly ten years after Ming Jian ascended the throne, and at this time, the system's prompt also came: "Ding Dong, congratulations to the host for completing the exercise of the Datang Copy, please confirm whether the host will leave immediately?" ”
