Chapter 1298: Proud Zhao Deyan
People have the name of self-knowledge. This sentence is easy to say, but there is no one in ten thousand who can do it, especially if a person is a very complex animal, maybe in a certain period of time, a person can have a clear understanding of himself, but with the passage of time and changes in the outside world, this person's perception of himself may have some deviations, so as to make some decisions that are somewhat incredible in the eyes of others.
"There's no problem with this scorching brain, otherwise how could such a decision be made?" On the edge of the Yellow Canal outside Li Xiu's house, he looked at Zhao Deyan sitting next to him with a surprised face at this time, and said, if this news was not from Zhao Deyan's mouth, he even doubted the truth of this news.
"Hehe, there's no big problem with Bazhu's brain, it's just that he was carried away by the victory of the previous easy victory over the reckless, and he no longer knows how many catties and taels he has, so he is so bold to take the initiative to attack our Datang!" Zhao Deyan was also holding a fishing rod at this time, and said with a bright smile on his face.
Today, Zhao Deyan suddenly came to Li Xiu to fish, and also told him a news that people never expected, that is, he had just inherited the throne of Xue Yantuo Khan, and defeated his younger brother Lu Mang, who didn't know what was crazy, and suddenly sent out to attack the border city of Xiazhou, the Tang Dynasty, you must know that even when Yi Nan was in power, he didn't dare to use troops against Datang, let alone Bazhuo, so this news really surprised Li Xiu.
"I see, I didn't expect this Bazhuo to be an arrogant Yelang, he just defeated Lu Mang, it is estimated that the tribes on the Mobei grassland also respect him, which made him float to the sky, thinking that he could defeat our Tang Dynasty!" Li Xiu couldn't help but laugh when he heard Zhao Deyan's explanation.
"Yes, before Yi Nan died, the two brothers Bazhuo and Lu Mang fought, and the court also quarreled about whether to send troops, but I didn't expect that Lu Mang was too unsuccessful, and he was defeated and died in just one month, Originally, His Majesty was still regretting missing this opportunity, but he didn't expect Ba Zhuo to be dizzy and take the initiative to send troops to our Tang Dynasty, and now His Majesty can finally use troops against Xue Yantuo openly!" Zhao Deyan still smiled at this time.
"What's going on in the war over there in Xiazhou, although Bazhuo is a little overwhelmed, but after all, Xue Yantuo has been dominant in Mobei for many years, and there are hundreds of thousands of people in the clan, if they attack Xiazhou with all their might, I am really worried that they will not be able to hold it over there." Li Xiu was a little worried at this time, the opportunity is a good opportunity, but it is still the same sentence, strategically you can despise the enemy, but tactically you must pay attention to the enemy.
"Don't worry, Xiazhou guard general Tian Renhui is also a famous general, and has always been known for being good at defending, just when Ba Zhuo sent troops to attack Xiazhou, he got the report of our Fei Nu Division in advance, and immediately contracted the defense line, and moved the people outside the city to the city, and now according to the city, according to the latest news, Ba Zhuo has attacked Xiazhou City for ten days, but it is difficult to lose an inch!" Zhao Deyan spoke again at the moment.
Hearing the name Tian Renhui, Li Xiu couldn't help but put his mind at ease, although this person is not famous in history, but he is a rare general in Datang, it is worth mentioning that he is also the first batch of cadets who graduated from the military academy, and has been serving on the northern border, with military merits in the hands of the defenders of a state, and Tian Renhui is very good at defending the city, a few years ago he used to guard the northern Pingcheng with the soldiers of a government, as a result, there was a majority of rebellion in the grassland at that time, and the other party attacked Pingcheng with several times the force, In the end, I couldn't beat it for a few months.
What's more worth mentioning is that although Tian Renhui in history was also a military general, what was really famous was that he was diligent in government and loved the people when he served in the local government, and he was also very honest as an official, which also made his political achievements even more famous than his military exploits.
"Arita Ren will be in Xiazhou, which can also be reassuring, but Your Majesty's side will definitely not be willing to just defend, and Your Majesty will definitely not let go of such a rare opportunity to send troops." Li Xiu also asked again with a smile at this time, Xue Yantuo can't beat Xiazhou, so he doesn't have to worry, but now it is Xue Yantuo who should be worried.
"Your Majesty has ordered Li Daozong, the king of Jiangxia in the Ministry of Rites, to send Shuo, and, Fen, Ji, Lan, Dai, Xin, Wei, and Yun Jiuzhou soldiers from Shuozhou, and Qiao Shiwang Fasheng, Xia, Yin, Sui, Dan, Yan, Yan, Yan, Fang, Shi, Xi Ten state soldiers from Shengzhou, and now the two armies are like pincers to Xiazhou, if the other party does not retreat, I am afraid that this time Xue Yantuo will hemorrhage!" Zhao Deyan spoke again at this time.
"Haha~, I hope that this Bazhuo will not retreat, with the ability of Li Daozong and Qiao Shiwang, plus the strength of the nineteen states is gathered together, and Tian Renhui will cooperate in front, Xue Yantuo is almost certain to be defeated, if he can leave all the troops in Xiazhou City, Xue Yantuo will not be worried in the future!" Li Xiu also laughed at this time.
Of course, that's what he said, but Li Xiu didn't expect Bazhuo to stay in Xiazhou, after all, in the face of the counterattack of the Tang Dynasty, even the most stupid person knew to retreat temporarily, with the vastness of the grassland, plus Xue Yantuo was familiar with the terrain and climate of the grassland, it was not very difficult to avoid the pursuit of the Tang army.
"Hehe, maybe this Bazhuo will really stay in Xiazhou and fight our army!" But at this moment, I saw Zhao Deyan suddenly smile again, and there was an indescribable insidious smile in his smile.
"Do you really dare to fight us?" Li Xiu couldn't help but ask again in surprise when he heard Zhao Deyan's words, he knew Zhao Deyan's character, if he didn't have a certain certainty, he would definitely not say the above words.
"If we can blind a person's eyes and ears, and make some appropriate inducements, we can make this person do something we want, and now this person has been blindfolded by our Feinus, and at the same time plugged his ears." I saw Zhao Deyan smile proudly at this time, this is also the main reason why he came to Li Xiu today, because he did the most proud thing, but he couldn't preach it to others, fortunately, he could still talk to Li Xiu about it, otherwise he would have to hold back his illness.
"You...... You Feinus have arranged a detailed work by Bazhuo's side! Li Xiu was also shocked when he heard this, and then he reacted and said to Zhao Deyan with wide eyes, if this is the case, then the abnormality of pulling out can also be explained.
"Hahahaha~, sure enough, I still can't hide the horse, for this Bazhuo, our Feinu Division has also made great efforts, not only planting people around him, but also buying some important Xue Yantuo nobles, and it is precisely these people that make Bazhuo want to fight to the death with our Tang Dynasty." Zhao Deyan saw Li Xiu's surprised appearance, and at this time he couldn't help laughing proudly, for the sake of Xue Yantuo, they have been laying out the Feinu Division for several years, and today they finally see the effect.
"Great, if you don't escape, Xue Yantuo will definitely be greatly injured, and then we don't need to do it, the other tribes around will be able to tear Xue Yantuo apart and swallow it!" Li Xiu immediately high-fived and praised, some time ago he also discussed with Li Shimin, preparing to completely divide and disintegrate the forces on the grassland after destroying Xue Yantuo, but later he was defeated too quickly, which made Li Xiu a little disappointed, but he didn't expect that the peak turned around, and the chess pieces laid by Fei Nu Si played an unexpected role.
"Hehe, Ba Zhuo is now ambitious to complete his father Yi Nan's unfinished work, that is, to unify the grassland, but although Xue Yantuo is strong, but with our Datang, the hearts of the people on the grassland cannot be unified, especially the southern tribes are even more focused on our Datang, and they will not listen to Xue Yantuo's orders at all, and if they want to change this situation, the only way is to defeat our Datang army, which is also what Ba Zhuo desires the most in his heart, so I am eighty percent sure of it, Ba Zhuo should have a head-on fight with the army of Li Daozong and others! Zhao Deyan smiled sinisterly again at this time.
Hearing Zhao Deyan's words, Li Xiu couldn't help but nodded in admiration, if a spy agency like Feinusi is used well, it can indeed be compared to an army of 100,000, and even slaughtering the city and destroying the country, for example, when the Turks were destroyed, Zhao Deyan played a great role in it, and now he just used the means of the Turks on Xue Yantuo, although Xue Yantuo is strong, but it is still much worse than the original Turks, and even the Turks can't bear such a trick, let alone Xue Yantuo.
Xue Yantuo has fallen into the trap of the Tang Dynasty, which made Li Xiu also very interested, so he asked Zhao Deyan about their layout in Xue Yantuo, and the more he listened, the more surprised he became, because the layout of Feinusi in Xue Yantuo was very large, and the time span was also extremely long, and even when the Turks perished, Feinusi had already begun to lay out in Xue Yantuo, and it was still presided over by Ma Ye at that time, although it was abandoned for a period of time, but since Zhao Deyan took over Feinusi, he restarted the layout of Xue Yantuo, It's no wonder that Bazhuo was toyed with by Fenus in the palm of his hand.
In addition to the situation on Xue Yantuo's side, Li Xiu also asked Zhao Deyan about the situation of other parts of the grassland, after all, as long as Xue Yantuo can be destroyed this time, the Tang Dynasty will begin to implement the last step of annexing the grassland, but there is no exact plan for the last step, so Li Xiu also needs to know more about the grassland.
Zhao Deyan is in charge of the Feinu Division, and the northern grassland is also the focus of the Feinu Division's monitoring, so he knows the situation on the grassland better than anyone else, and with his narration, Li Xiu also has a further understanding of the situation in the northern grassland, and gradually he also has a general idea in his heart, although this idea is not very mature, but maybe he can discuss it with Li Shimin.
