The eighth day of August.

The imperial capital of the Tang Dynasty - Chang'an.

The Khan of Suyanta Viga sent his brother Tongtle to pay tribute.

Li Shimin gave him a sword and a whip, and said to him: "Those of your tribes who commit major sins will be killed with knives, and those who commit minor sins will be whipped with whips." ”

Yi Nan was very happy.

East. However, the Turkic Jieli Khan was greatly alarmed and began to send envoys to call him a minister, asking for a princess to be married, and a nun to be courtesy.

Zhang Gong, the governor of the acting state, said that he could take the east. Turkic.

There are six reasons: "Jieli Khan was extravagant and cruel, killed the loyal and good, and was close to the traitorous people, which was one of them; Xue Yantuo and other tribes have defected, which is the second; Tuli, Tuo, and Desire Valley are all offended by Jieli, and there is no place to be ashamed, which is the third; The northern part of the country experienced frost and drought and lacked food, which was the fourth; Jieli alienated his people and entrusted them with heavy responsibilities to the Hu people, who were capricious, and once the Tang Empire army arrived, it was bound to be internal chaos, which was the fifth; The Han people went to the north to avoid chaos in the early years, and at this time there were more people, and recently I heard that they gathered a crowd of arms, occupied a dangerous place, and the army went out of the fortress, and naturally responded internally, which was the sixth. ”

Li Shimin thought that since Jieli Khan wanted to make peace with the Tang Dynasty and sent troops to aid Liang Shidu, the enemy of the Tang Dynasty, it was really a wolf's ambition.

Liang Shidu, a native of Shuofang, Xiazhou. The world is the wealthy family of the county. Shi Sui is the general of the eagle. In the thirteenth year of the great cause of the Sui Dynasty, he killed the county Cheng Tang Shizong, called the great prime minister, and joined forces with the Turks to jointly oppose the Sui, according to the counties of Diaoyin, Honghua, Yan'an, etc., and called the emperor, the country name Liang, and the Jianyuan "Yonglong". The Turkic Shibi Khan named him the Great Viga Khan and the Son of Heaven. Liang Shidu led the Turkic soldiers and horses to occupy the land of Henan and attack Yanchuan County. He continued to collude and instigate the Turkic invasion of the south, after the Tang unified the country, the forces were lonely and weak, and the internal contradictions intensified. Jieli Khan came to help the capital, when the heavy snow fell, the sheep and horses froze to death. Chai Shao met the battle, defeated his people, and then entered the city. The division was in a hurry, and his cousin Liang Luoren surrendered, and the imperial court promoted Liang Luoren to the general of the right Xiaowei and the prince of Shuofang County. It took 12 years from the rise of the Liang division to its demise. The imperial court took its land as Xiazhou, and it was convenient to counterattack the east. A military stronghold of the Turks.

Taiji Palace, Ganlu Palace.

Li Shimin summoned Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, eldest grandson Wuji, Wei Zheng, Li Jing, Li Tao, Cheng Yanjin, Wei Chigong and other prime ministers and generals to discuss the east. Turkic affairs.

Of course, Fang Xu, Fang Dafu, Fang Zhonglang, will serve as a dedication to Pingdong. Turkic strategists are also impressively listed.

After the bigwigs finished expressing their opinions, it was finally Fang Xu's turn.

Fang Xu, who was dozing off, heard Li Shimin laugh and said, "Gongfu, what do you think." ”

Fang Xu sneered: "After you all finished discussing, I remembered to ask the master's opinion, it is really not appropriate to take bean bags for dry food." Of course, Fang Xu also thought about these words in his heart, and he didn't dare to say them if he had the guts.

Fang Xu replied to the question and said: "The minister thinks that our army should attack in three ways, and the left and right roads should advance with two wings encircled, and do not engage the enemy for the time being. The army of the middle route set out from Mayi, and at night it attacked Dingxiang directly, pointing directly at the tooth tent of Jieli Khan. When our army captures Dingxiang, Jieli Khan will definitely move his tooth tent to the north of Yinshan, and at this time, our army will be able to annihilate the Turks in one fell swoop by attacking it in three ways. And the minister thought that the grassland soldiers were noble and not many, and asked for a quick victory, and the three-way army had more than 100,000 elites, and as for the person who led the troops, it was all up to His Majesty to decide. My Datang will be star-studded, and all the veterans present, the one who went out to fight the east. The Turks are nothing more than a breeze. However, the seven-foot body of the minister, although he is a scholar, is the weak crown of the final army; There is a pen with a pen, and Mu Zong's long wind. I would like to ask for Changying, go out with the army, and contribute to the Tang Dynasty. Of course, Fang Xu knew that Li Shimin had sent Li Jing, Li Ji and Chai Shao to lead the troops in history, but he didn't dare to say it in front of these veterans, otherwise he wouldn't have a good life, especially when Cheng Lao was still the boss. I had to settle down with the mud.

Li Shimin was shocked again when he heard Fang Xu's suggestion, but when he heard him and the mud, he laughed out loud.

On the 19th, Li Jing, the secretary of the military department, was appointed as the chief of the march, and Zhang Gongjin was appointed as the deputy commander-in-chief, and led the troops to defeat the Turks.

Fang Xu, the general of the right military guard, led the ten battalions of the Red Army and went out with Li Jing.

The war is about to begin, and the beacon fire is smoking.
