Chapter 474: Tang Xuanzong's Will!

Tang Xuanzong thought for a long time, and then sighed lightly, and then saw him shouting outside the main hall, "Someone!" ”

When a eunuch comes in respectfully from the outside, after the salute is finished. The apex update was the fastest, and Tang Xuanzong said in a deep voice: "Pass on my holy decree, let the hussar general and the general Zhenguo send troops to attack the enemy army in the near future." Form a flanking attack as fast as possible, and then repel the enemy army to relieve the crisis in the capital! ”

Half a day later, the decree reached the hussar general's station. Upon hearing the news, whether it was the hussar general or the generals under him, everyone's faces showed expressions of surprise. I saw the hussar general after receiving the holy decree, and said in a solemn tone: "Annoying my father-in-law to go back to the palace to explain to Your Majesty, now there is a huge gap between the strength of the enemy and us. If we rely on Tongguan, our army can still resist the enemy, but if we take the initiative to attack, our chances of victory are not great."

Hearing this, the father-in-law who came to convey the holy decree immediately asked with some doubts, "Isn't there still a large army garrisoned by General Zhenguo in Northern Xinjiang?" Could it be that the two generals combined could not defeat the enemy army? ”

Hearing this, he saw that the hussar general shook his head, and said in a somewhat helpless voice, "This time, the alliance of Tubo and other three parties is known as an army of 300,000. Although after the consumption of several decisive battles with the Eastern Expeditionary Army before, I am afraid that 20,000 or 30,000 troops have also been lost. But even so, the enemy's strength was still more than 100,000 more. And that's just the initial enemy army, and with their reinforcements added later, our chances of victory are slim."

After hearing the hussar general's complaint, he saw the father-in-law who came to deliver the holy decree, and he was also a little helpless and said, "The difficulties that the general said are also known to the miscellaneous family." But after all, this is the will of His Majesty himself, and the miscellaneous family does not dare to disobey the will, and asks the general for forgiveness. ”

"I can understand my father-in-law's difficulties, I just want my father-in-law to relay the words of the last general to His Majesty, so that His Majesty can know the current war situation. I hope Your Majesty can change your mind" The hussar general said with his fists clenched again, he still held on to a glimmer of hope, wanting Tang Xuanzong to understand that defense is the best strategy now.

However, the hussar general's extravagant hopes did not materialize. Within two days of his return, the father-in-law, who had delivered the decree, reappeared in the hussar general's tent.

And once again came the holy decree of Tang Xuanzong, still urging him to hurry up and send troops to attack the enemy troops stationed outside Tongguan.

After knowing what Tang Xuanzong meant, the hussar general was very puzzled and asked, "Isn't Your Majesty aware of the current situation?" If our army goes out to fight the enemy, even if it wins, it will be a crushing victory. Your Majesty can't even know this!? ”

Hearing this, he saw that the father-in-law who conveyed the holy decree glanced at the hussar general and asked, "Could it be that the general is doubting His Majesty's decision?" ”

"The last general doesn't dare, but the last general thinks that it is best to stick to Tongguan now." Hearing this father-in-law's words, the hussar general hurriedly explained. Resisting the decree and disrespecting this is a felony of the Nine Clans, and he doesn't dare to be easily contaminated with this crime.

"The miscellaneous family just reminded the general, hoping that the general could hurry up and send troops. Your Majesty is still waiting for the news of the general's triumph in Chang'an City."

After saying that, the eunuch turned around and left.

Looking at the departing figure of the eunuch, the hussar general sighed lightly. He frowned and thought for a long time, then shook his head and told his generals about it.

And after knowing Tang Xuanzong's will, these generals were like exploding a pot one by one, and they couldn't understand Tang Xuanzong's approach. What's the difference between letting them out of the city and sending them to their deaths?

However, no matter how reluctant these people were, it was Tang Xuanzong's will after all. Therefore, in the dissatisfaction of the generals, the hussar general still made the generals ready to send troops, and he said that he had taken action in the last few days.

This is already Tang Xuanzong's second urging, he must take action, otherwise, the crime of resisting the decree and disrespecting it will be realized.

At the same time, in the city of Lingzhou in northern Xinjiang. The general of Zhenguo, who was sitting here, was also frowning at this time. He also held a decree in his hand, which told him to cooperate with the hussar general to flank the enemy army.

Although the holy decree said that they had a great advantage, Lu Yi knew very well in his heart that although this was a good tactic, the problem was that their troops were too small.

Although he was reluctant to send troops, Tang Xuanzong issued a very strong order on the holy decree, so that their two armies must launch an attack on the enemy army today!

After sighing for a moment, Lu Yi also summoned his generals to the room and told everyone about Tang Xuanzong's will. Although these generals couldn't understand why Tang Xuanzong issued this order, after all, it was a holy decree, and they could only carry it out.

Therefore, now the only two remaining armies in the Tang Dynasty have begun to prepare for sending troops.

And in Hezhou City, it has gradually settled down. It may be because the main forces of Tibet are now concentrating on attacking Chang'an City, so these days, there are no enemy troops to invade this city at all.

After seeing the reason, Lu Chen didn't plan to stay any longer. After all, now that the world has just been in turmoil, Lu Chen must take advantage of the fact that all forces have not completely established themselves and lay down a piece of the country first. Otherwise, if there are many feudal towns in the future, it will not be as easy as it is now.

After thinking of this, Lu Chen immediately took out his map and began to look for the next city that should be attacked.

Because now Lu Chen has occupied the two cities of Minzhou and Hezhou, and counting the holy cities, these three cities are already a foundation for Lu Chen in the northwest region. It's just that this foundation is too weak, and I'm afraid that a random tens of thousands of soldiers and horses can attack these two cities.

As for his Luzhou city in the south, although the defensive measures are stronger, as long as the number of enemy troops reaches 60,000 or 70,000, it is still difficult to defend.

Although now, the strength of Lu Chen's troops has reached more than 30,000, even among the various forces in the entire Tang Dynasty, it can be regarded as the existence of the top few. But Lu Chen's heart is still not very steady, he wants to rule a region that is not subject to the constraints of the Tang Dynasty, Lu Chen must have the strength to be afraid of anyone.

After thinking of this, Lu Chen was no longer limited to the current area, but in the entire territory of Datang, and began to look for his own target.

Soon, when Lu Chen's gaze shifted to the east, he saw a glimmer of light flash in his eyes. That's right! Why didn't you think of those coastal cities?

Although these coastal cities are not developing much now, Lu Chen is a time-traveler with the memories of two lives. He is confident that those seaside cities will grow rapidly. More importantly, most of the cities in the northeastern territory are now occupied by An Lushan. Therefore, Lu Chen can attack these cities under the banner of the imperial court.
