Chapter 0706. Where the sword is pointed
It is no wonder that the eldest grandson Wuji is worried about starting a war with Fujian, and Datang's own battle line is too long. [ads:This site has a new URL,Shorthand method:,.]. Visit:.
In the east, the 180,000 Tang army and Liaodong are in full swing, and the supply line is dragged from Hebei to Jianghuai, unlike Li Jie, Li Tai is called the emperor, aiming at Chang'an, the battle for the throne, but there is no compromise, thousands of miles of battle line supply, has dragged millions of people in Jianghuai Hebei.
In the northwest, the Western Regions has become the last financial route in Guanzhong, and the setting of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion in the Western Regions, in order to control the vast land in the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains, has also dragged the attention of Guanzhong.
As for Jiangnan, I am afraid that the Fujian State is more inclined than the Tang Dynasty, just looking at the Jianghuai before the war, there are more than 60,000 government soldiers who are suffering from the war in the northeast, which can be seen.
said that it was defense, and it really had to be defended, Li Zhi had a headache again, because he really didn't know where to defend.
According to the correct reason, if Fujian rebels against 'chaos', it will either go straight to Jinling to cut off the south of the Yangtze River, or storm Jianghuai, enter the Central Plains from here to seize Heluo, and plot against Guanzhong.
There are a lot of border soldiers in Longxi, but last time they were able to put Li Jie's army in, and this time who knows if they can put Fujian in again. Through Princess Wencheng, the eldest grandson Wuji won a borrowing from Tibet this time, but Princess Wencheng's father Li Daozong is still staying in Fujian, maybe Tubo's attitude has changed, and Longxi needs to be defended again.
However, Li Jie also had a very strong alliance with the general of the Japanese state, and the Dengzhou Laizhou in Shandong still communicated the upper road between the Japanese state and the Tang Dynasty.
It can be said that holding the map and grabbing the few chess pieces left in his hand, Li Zhi and Changsun Wuji were dumbfounded together, Li Zhi was in such a three-sided dilemma, Li Zhi once wanted to stop the expedition of Goguryeo, and set up defenses on three sides, or Changsun Wuji persuaded him to stop him, this Fujian State has not yet attacked, the imperial court has been 'chaotic' by itself, and it has been 'chaotic' from the momentum, and the people's hearts are scattered, how can the team be led?
In the end, the eldest grandson Wuji came up with a stupid way, under the pretext of accompanying Luoyang and supervising the battle in Haidong, Li Zhi took 300,000 heavy troops from Guanzhong into Luoyang, brought all the civil and military officials over, and at the same time led the troops to defend Shaanzhou.
Finally, Li Jiefang's cruel words made Li Zhile drag more than 300,000 troops, toss the Manchu Dynasty civil and military and left the comfortable Chang'an nest where they lived, and went to Heluo.
Sitting in Zhongzhou, Emperor Gaozong, who looked down on the world, really drew his sword and looked around, planning to fight to the death with the invading army of Fujian, and completely defeat Li Jie to prove that he is the rightful master of the world.
Li Zhi, who was full of golden iron horses, didn't know that thousands of kilometers away, on the palace of the King of Fujian, which was located in New Delhi in the future, Li Jie plucked his ears and said in surprise: "Lonely and flickering Changsun Wuji, you really believe it?"
"Flickering?" Seeing that he had no image of King Min sitting crooked on the lotus 'flower' golden seat, from the first assistant Wang Xuance to the right 'attendant' Lang Cui Ti of the Ministry of War, his eyes were wide one by one, can this be a joke?
It is no wonder that after the raid on the capital division of the Fujian State by the eldest grandson Wuji, the huge empire showed too strong a revenge posture, and the soldiers who gathered in the capital division during the war not only did not disperse, but there was a tendency to increase, under the call of Li Jie, nearly 500,000 government soldiers gathered from all over the North Tianzhu gathered in a position about fifty miles around the Beijing division, and the warehouse was almost cleared out to equip these government soldiers.
In addition, the Fujian State also began to organize the flood refugees who were cruising nearby, and used the method of disaster relief to gather these people together, gathering such a large-scale manpower, and on the day of sending the eldest grandson Wuji away, Li Jie's words of revenge echoed in his ears, and all the Fujian courtiers were preparing for the big war with the Tang Dynasty.
But today, as soon as Wang Xuance put forward the battle plan with Guanzhong, he got such a surprised answer from Li Jie, which really made the ministers below feel like my 'pants' have been taken off, and you can show me this feeling.
Seeing the stunned appearance of the ministers, Li Jie also spread his hands helplessly, and asked: "Now that most of my warehouse has been consumed in the war against the Arabs, the stock of rice and grain is no longer enough for the original two layers, and now I still have to raise Fanshangfu soldiers, what will I use to attack Guanzhong?"
This is reasonable, this time the cost of Fujian's attack on the Arabs is too great, the more than 100,000 soldiers collected by Tianzhu in the north and south have not been brought back, as the main force of the sixteen guards and the king of Fujian Tielin, Guanning Iron Cavalry came back only 60,000 people, this is only the casualties, the most expensive is rice and grain.
In the early stage, thousands of miles across the huge Khorasan, which is equivalent to the land of Iran and Afghanistan in the later generations to transport grain, it would be good to have two loads of grain left on the front line for ten days.
If you attack the Tang Dynasty, there are indeed many roads, through the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, take the Yunnan-Yunnan route of the Indochina Peninsula on the Ancient Tea Horse Road, or launch an attack from Fujian to Jianghuai, but each route is thousands of miles away, and the amount of food consumed is astronomical.
If it weren't for the political influence and the determination of the King of Fujian, Wang Wei, the great housekeeper of the Min Kingdom, would not agree to anything, listening to Li Jie's rhetorical question, the first assistant with a green face hurriedly smiled and waved his hand regardless of his image: "What His Highness said is extremely true, it is indeed not the time to attack Guanzhong now."
A large number of indignant and belligerent generals couldn't help but droop their heads, but at this time, Xue Rengui, who had just been promoted to General Zuo Weiwei, stood up excitedly and knelt heavily on the ground with his full armor.
"Does Your Highness have to raise an army against Mesopotamia to take revenge on the treacherous Arabs? I am willing to be a pioneer! ”
Listening to Xue Rengui's words, Wang Xuance and other prime ministers, many military generals below, and even Byzantine Princess Anna, who was standing under the court and listening to the government, couldn't help but light up her eyes.
Up to now, Li Jie's vow when he returned from Palestine still resounding in the hearts of many witnesses.
Crossing the sea without sinking, the king will come again! On that day, Li Jieke did not take thousands of soldiers and horses, and under heavy encirclement, he crossed the famous bitter sea and the Aral Sea in the Middle East.
Five thousand two hundred and fifteen cavalrymen, including many ministers who could not swim, crossed the bitter sea and the Aral Sea dozens of meters deep, and none of them sank, and had just landed on the other shore on horseback, and the always proud Byzantine princess actually knelt directly on the ground and prayed loudly to God.
Moreover, in addition to the miracle of crossing the sea, the king of Min also deployed a fleet on the shore of the Red Sea like a prophet, and saved the army of Min from the line of death for the army of Min who was deep in the heart of the enemy in the Arabian Peninsula.
As a result, despite the defeat in the Middle East, almost everyone of the remaining 60,000-odd Fujian army still regarded Li Jie as his true son, and his morale was high.
"Your Highness has the blessing of heaven, when you fight in the Middle East again, the Zhubei family is willing to devote your family to help the military!" Once again, the courtiers knelt on the ground and started to sing in unison.
Seeing that the courtiers below were all shining with eyes and a look of admiration, Li Jie, who was proud in his heart, scratched his head embarrassedly.
Before sending troops to Mesopotamia, Li Jie, who had a whimsical 'tide', sent Liu Ren's naval army, which was temporarily useless, to the Red Sea, on the one hand, to harass Arabia and Egypt on both sides of the Red Sea, and on the other hand, Li Jie took a fancy to an important stronghold at the 'junction' between the Arabian Peninsula and Egypt.
SUEZ!
The famous Suez Canal is located in this place, the Isthmus of Suez west of the Sinai Peninsula, from the ancient Egyptian period, the canal has been excavated here to connect the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea, but after thousands of years of wind and frost, it has been silted up so much that later generations of Western navigators have reached a consensus that the sea is closed and cannot be connected together!
If this canal is dug up, it will be easy for Fujian to dominate the Mediterranean Sea in the future.
Fortunately, Li Jie was greedy for a while, and the fleet deployed in the Red Sea became his lifeline, and when he learned that all the back roads were blocked, Li Jie decided to flee to the sea for the first time, which was this decision, saving his more than 60,000 backbone troops.
As for the so-called unsinkable crossing of the sea, it is not so miraculous in comparison, the bitter sea and the Aral Sea in the Palestinian region will have a well-known name in later generations, the Dead Sea!
The saltwater lake left over from ancient times, under the evaporation of the severe weather in the Middle East, the salinity is as high as a quarter, and the buoyancy is amazing.
However, Li Jie used the Dead Sea to pretend to be a god and 'make ghosts' in order to make everyone hopeful again, but now it seems that he is a little too hopeful, seeing more and more ministers of Fujian kneeling on the ground, crying blood and donating all their family funds to the imperial court to help continue the attack on the Arab Empire, Li Jie's smile couldn't help but stiffen.
"Enough, all the ministers, although the country of "Sima Fa" is big, the belligerent will die! Just now, our Fujian country has been defeated, and Lone will not allow any more major battles in the short term! ”
After saying this, the huge court couldn't help but be completely quiet, in the past, the king intended to fight, and the courtiers advised, but now it is the opposite, restless, and the ministers of the Fujian State who are holding a breath of anger in their 'chests' want to start a war again, but it is Li Jie himself who uses the words of the sages to dissuade himself.
However, at the same time as being depressed, all the ministers had a big question mark in their minds, since they planned to recuperate, Li Jie gathered an army of 500,000 and gathered almost all the government soldiers in the countryside, what was it for?
Seeing that Xu Jingzong was staring at him with suspicion and curiosity, finally, Li Jie smiled evilly and shook out a large map from the wide sleeves of King Min.
"During this time, the top priority of the Fujian State is the water worker!"
Looking at the map of Fujian with dense rivers, all the civil servants of Fujian were bright-eyed, and the military ministers were a little pale in an instant-74968+dsuaahhh+28142168->
