Chapter 42: The Weishui Alliance (1)
......On the official road outside Chang'an City, a few inches of snow could not stop the footsteps of Hongling's urgent report, and the horseshoe was nailed to the soles of the horses' feet, and they were running wildly with the speed of sprinting on this rugged official road. The knight on the horse had a flag on his back and three red feathers on his helmet on his head.
"Eight hundred miles in a hurry, quickly dodge!" The knights of the newspaper did not have the slightest intention of stopping, regardless of the common people and the carriages of the officials who were still in and out of the city gates, and rushed towards the city without slowing down. The people who were still entering and leaving the city hurriedly dodged a passage, knowing that the eight-hundred-mile urgent report would kill you and have no place to reason.
At this time, Li Er was discussing with a group of ministers how to fight the Turkic battle, but received a report from the chamberlain: "Emperor Qizuo came to the front line to rush eight hundred miles, and Shuofang City was lost!" The waiter's voice was trembling, he knew that Li Er would definitely be furious when he heard this news again, and at that time he was afraid that he would be implicated, and he would have to lose half his life if he was not killed.
"What?" Li Er stood up from the throne in a hurry, and hurriedly walked towards the outside of the Lizheng Palace: "Where is the messenger, I want to see him!" It's really unreasonable, what does Hou Junji eat. Such a thing happened at this critical moment! ”
Li Er walked out in such a hurry, and the ministers on the scene knew that something was wrong, and it seemed that Hou Junji should have had an accident in Shuofang City.
After meeting with the sergeant who came to deliver the report and confirming the accurate information about the loss of Shuofang City, Li Er sat on the throne in the main hall with a gloomy face, and the ministers trembled below and did not dare to squeak.
"Holy. Prepare early! Troops and horses are now being mobilized in various places, and it is not long before there will be troops to fight, and we just need to survive this time. There is still a chance for a qiē! "The eldest grandson Wuji didn't know what to say, Shuofang City was the most important part of Li Er's arrangement, but he didn't expect it to be captured in just two days, Hou Junji didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and all 30,000 troops were slaughtered. Such a defeat is unprecedented in Datang, although there is a reason. But Hou Junji is also guilty. Jieli's army has broken through to Guanzhong and is coming all the way to Chang'an, which is intolerable to Li Erwan. At this moment, he had the heart to kill Hou Junji. But this is not the most important thing, the most important thing now is how to stop Jieli's offensive momentum, otherwise if he really hits the edge of Weishui, then he, the emperor, may be the laughing stock of the whole world.
Li Er racked his brains to think of countermeasures. But it's still at a loss. The current situation is much more urgent than when he conquered the world, Jieli's troops are much more than the so-called anti-kings at the beginning, a full 200,000 people who control the strings, although tens of thousands of corpses were left in Shuofang City, but they are still not to be underestimated, and the Tang Dynasty's troops are scattered, suppressing the rogues everywhere, and it is very troublesome to assemble. So I can only do it in a hurry.
"Where is Wei Chigong?" Li Er thought about it for a long time, and it was not his style to wait for Jieli to call without making any moves. At the very least, you have to arrange troops to attack, even if you have little success, you must send troops, you can't help but fight back, not fighting back is a habit, when you get used to it, you will no longer have the courage to fight back. This is not good, we must maintain the brave spirit of biting off a piece of your flesh even if you beat me to death.
"The last general!" Wei Chi stood up in a daze, wearing only gorgeous ceremonial armor on him, and this black fierce general also wore a fierce aura.
"I order you to lead the sixteen guards to attack, put down the defense of Chang'an City for the time being, and give me a painful blow at any price!" After Li Er's face hesitated for a while, he made up his mind to speak up, such a decision is completely a desperate gamble, breaking the kettle, and defending the important land of Gyeonggi with the sixteen guards, how can it be moved lightly. But now they are all sent out, Chang'an City is equivalent to being directly exposed to the enemy, if the war is lost, then Li Er, the emperor and Li Yuan, the emperor, as well as the princes and grandsons of the harem, and the concubines and concubines will all be captives of the Turks.
"Holy Lord, no! Chang'an City is the capital of the country, how can there be no one to defend it? This is a big mistake! Li Er's decision made those ministers anxious, this decision not only exposed the entire royal family, but also their group of ministers, especially the ministers who were born into a big family, the gentleman did not stand under the dangerous wall, this Chang'an City was originally the safest place in the entire Tang Dynasty, but Li Er did this, it became the most dangerous place, without the protection of those soldiers, these officials of the big family who had been in high positions for a long time had no sense of security at all, so Cui Xiang was the first to jump out, with Qinghe Cui taking the lead, The representatives of the rest of the big families also jumped out, saying that they were for the safety of Chang'an and the safety of the royal family, but the real purpose was very clear to everyone.
"Alright, I've made up my mind! If Wei Chigong can't go into battle with the sixteen guards, then can they change the outcome by staying in Chang'an? If you people are really worried about the country and the people, why don't you come up with a plan to break the enemy? I've made up my mind! Wei Chigong still hasn't received the order? "Li Er's anger value has long been full, these people actually dare to touch his tiger whiskers, really his patience is unlimited!
After a reprimand, he taught the officials of those big families a lesson, Li Er asked Wei Chigong to take the order and go to work quickly, as long as Wei Chigong can have some good records, then it may be more reliable than the soldiers and horses in the places where they don't know when they can be assembled, those places are too far away from Chang'an.
"Do you really want to 'cut the white horse in Weishui'?" Li Er couldn't help but think of the trick that Li Kuan sent out more than 20 days ago, has the above words begun to be fulfilled? Can anyone really do such a thing? The desire to control scientists can't help but be stronger.
Li Kuan put away his fist, and the bones of his whole body crackled like popping beans. Looking at his little arms and legs, he sighed long, if he was thirteen or fourteen years old now, I am afraid he would be able to make a difference. But I'm too young for anyone to let myself into the battlefield. The inertia of history surprised Li Kuan a little, but Jieli still came over, although it was more tragic than the unexpected beating of the Tang Dynasty in history, and the loss of tens of thousands of Turkic soldiers was more. But it still entered the Guanzhong, and from there to Chang'an can be described as a flat river, and this Weishui Alliance seems to be inevitable.
"I don't know, how long can I, a traverser, get away with it? When you can't say it, it will be harmonized by history, what can you do? "Li Kuan can't help it.
"When the host raises the energy of the system to a deep purple, then it is immune to historical inertia, because the system has enough energy to resist this inertia!" The system hadn't made a sound for a long time, and at this time, a sentence suddenly came out, which startled Li Kuan.
After getting the news he wanted, Li Kuan became excited, at least he had a goal, unlike before, he had only thought about eating and waiting for death, even if he was harmonized one day, how could he fight for it for life if he had no motivation?
When Li Kuan redoubled his efforts, Jieli was like a bamboo, directly burning the war to the hinterland of the Tang Dynasty, and countless people were once again disturbed by the war and displaced again after less than two years of settling down. It was even killed by the Turks for fun, and was jokingly called a two-legged sheep. This title appeared in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and Li Er's ancestor Xianbei people had a group that pioneered this title, when the Han people were used as military food in the Xianbei army. That's why it's nicknamed 'two-legged sheep'.
Datang was hit hard again, and it wasn't until Wei Chigong fell with the sixteen guards to meet Jieli's flank team, and then hit this group of Turkic soldiers hard, that he began to save a little face for Datang. But still could not stop the pace of Jieli's attack, the Turkic 200,000 people who controlled the strings died in this war, but they achieved fruitful results, all the way to attack, all the way to the captivity, after the Turks, the whole Guanzhong land mourned, countless people died tragically on the side of the road, countless young women were taken captive, and suffered humiliation at the hands of the Turks. Countless families have been destroyed, and families have been ruined ever since.
On the bank of Weishui, Jingyang City, Jieli and his younger brother Tuli met here, after entering Guanzhong, the two took a road of men and horses, and plundered everywhere in two ways, and decided to turn around in Jingyang City, and then stationed in Chang'an together. It is only forty miles away from Chang'an City, which is very close. Thinking that this Tang Dynasty was about to end in the hands of his brother, both of them burst into laughter.
"Those Han people, it's ridiculous! Big brother, do you know that when I attacked a small city, a large group of scholars stood in front of the city gate and persuaded us not to do these things, which is contrary to the teachings of the saints! Ha ha...... I directly cut down the two people in the lead, and the rest of them all ran away! Tuli said to his eldest brother Jieli.
"Really? If it were me, I'd cut it all down! Jieli said indifferently.
"Exactly, so the little brother didn't cut them down, but he didn't say that he wouldn't trample them to death! I sent three hundred knights to trample those Confucian students into meat sauce on their horses! Ha ha...... It's ridiculous, what a saint indoctrinates, our saint is a wolf god! What a Confucian saint, don't know! Tuli said what happened to the rest, and Jieli nodded in satisfaction.
"Now, are you attacking Chang'an?" Tuli asked.
"Since it's all here, how can I not go to Chang'an to see? I heard that the woman of the Tang Dynasty monarch is not much more worried than that of Queen Xiao, I really don't know what it will be like! This woman in the Central Plains is really white and tender! This is the heavenly land of my Turks! It was given by the great wolf god! Tuli said with a crazy and hideous face.
"What, thinking about Li Shimin's woman? Ha ha...... My good brother, in fact, the Central Plains women are very weak, I'm afraid I can't stand your toss, the warriors on my cǎo plains are much stronger than this weak Central Plains man! Jieli laughed, and said wordless words in his mouth.
'Boom! While the two were laughing, an arrow shot out from a distance like a meteor through the sky, nailed to a pillar beside them, and the feathers on the tail of the arrow were still trembling.
"What people!" Jieli and Tuli chased after them, but they didn't even see a single figure. (To be continued......)
