readx; The night was dark, and in the Turkic camp, there was a man with eight feet long and willowy eyebrows, standing outside the handsome tent, looking at the little fire in the direction of Liangzhou City in a daze. When the pen and fun pavilion www.biquge.info not much, his solemn face showed a hint of a smile, and he didn't look back, and asked casually: "Who is the great power who guards Liangzhou City?" ”

Standing behind this person, there was a middle-aged man with a straight body, but slightly emaciated. The middle-aged man bent down slightly, and responded respectfully: "Back to the boss's words, the person who guards Liangzhou City is Wei Zhengye, the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty and the secretary of the Ministry of Rites. ”

Hearing this, the tiger-eyed man chuckled lightly and said in a relaxed tone: "I am not asking about Wei Zheng, the general manager of the march, but the person who commands the battle on the front line. ”

The middle-aged man sighed lightly, and hurriedly responded: "This person's surname is Wei, his name is Hong, and he has been quite famous in Datang in the past two years. ”

"Oh? Wei Hong? I've heard of this man. Some time ago, Hui Hui attacked Horsehair Mountain without authorization, and he was defeated by this person! Hehe, although this person is not an orthodox soldier, his tactics are strange and changeable, and he can always work, which is quite admirable. The act of burning the city gate with fire, I have been on the battlefield for so many years, and only this Wei Hong can do it. This time I captured Liangzhou City, I must bring this person to me, I want to see what kind of weird he is! ”

The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, straightened his waist, and looked at the man's back in disbelief: "Boss, do you mean to take it for your own use?" ”

"Hehe, of course not! Isn't there an old saying in the Central Plains that says it well? Those who are not of my race will have different hearts! If a demon like Wei Hong stays by his side, it will only be a scourge! After I have played with him, I will naturally send him back to the West, so as not to cause any more trouble! The tiger-eyed man said lightly, as if he only regarded Wei Hong as a person who was good at kit kat ** skills, and did not take it seriously.

The middle-aged man clenched his fists and said respectfully: "The boss is wise!" It's just that if the fire of this city gate continues to burn, how should we break through Liangzhou City? After all, there are more than 7,000 defenders in Liangzhou City, and with my 20,000 soldiers and horses, it is not easy to break through Liangzhou City. If there are too many soldiers, Liangzhou City will be captured, and it will also be counterattacked by the Tang Dynasty. ”

"Liangzhou City? When did I say that I was going to break through Liangzhou City? The corners of the tiger-eyed man's mouth rose again, looked at the burning Liangzhou City, pursed his lips, and said excitedly: "Burn, burn it as much as you want!" ”

The middle-aged man was very puzzled, and he couldn't understand what the boss was thinking, so he frowned and asked: "Boss, since our target is not Liangzhou City, why do we still launch such a fierce offensive against Liangzhou City?" Today alone, our losses are nearly 3,000 people! Such a heavy price is really contrary to our interests! ”

The tiger-eyed man finally retracted his gaze from the direction of Liangzhou City, turned to look at the middle-aged man, and after a moment of silence, he reached out and patted the middle-aged man's shoulder, and chuckled: "Peiji, let me ask you, Liangzhou City, as an important border town of the Tang Dynasty, has been repeatedly unable to conquer it, why do you want to attack Liangzhou this time?" And why did the armies of the Tibetan and Zhangzhung dynasties not arrive? ”

After the middle-aged man lowered his head and pondered for a moment, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked up at the boss, his eyes were full of admiration: "Boss, you mean that attacking Liangzhou City is just a pretense!" Our purpose is not to focus on the city of Liangzhou, but to attack all the borders of Datang and launch a full-scale war against Datang when Datang puts all its attention on Liangzhou City? ”

Hearing this, the tiger-eyed man looked up and smiled, and praised with satisfaction: "Peiji, you are worthy of growing up in Datang since you were a child, and you have won the wise teachings of Datang, you are really talented!" Yes, if the lord of the country really wants to attack Liangzhou City, he will not only send 20,000 soldiers and horses. The 20,000 soldiers and horses, as well as the Tuyuhun army, are just an introduction. The combined forces of the Tibetan and Zhangzhung dynasties were the top priority. Once the Tubo and Zhangxiong dynasties started a war with the Tang Dynasty, they would be mired in the mud, and they would never stop without distinguishing between victory and defeat. The national strength of the Tang Dynasty is by no means comparable to that of the Tubo and Zhangxiong dynasties, even if the Tubo and Zhangxiong dynasties join forces, they are only qualified to compete with the Tang Dynasty. When he loses both, I can easily use the fisherman's advantage! Defeat these three countries in one fell swoop! ”

Li Peiji's eyes also lit up, admiring the coach's wisdom, and after a short period of excitement, Li Peiji's face suddenly turned condensed, and he said worriedly: "What about the Eastern Turks?" ”

The tiger-eyed man didn't take the Eastern Turks in his eyes at all, snorted lightly, and said, "Why do you think our army only sends 20,000 cavalry? ”

The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, looked at the boss with surprised eyes, and when he came back to his senses, his face was ecstatic, and his body trembled a little: "Boss, do you mean that the lord of the country has sent a large army to the Eastern Turkic border to launch an attack on the Eastern Turks at any time?" ”

The tiger-eyed man nodded noncommittally, looked back and took a deep look in the direction of Liangzhou, and chuckled: "When the Tang Dynasty and the Tubo Xiangxiong allied forces were fighting, it was also the time when we attacked the Eastern Turks!" After the Eastern Turks are resolved, they can take advantage of the victory to pursue and defeat Tubo, Zhangxiong, and Datang in one fell swoop! ”

When the tiger-eyed man was planning a great cause, the Khitan territory north of the Tang Dynasty also began to secretly display his warehouse. The 30,000-strong army began to quietly withdraw to the hinterland, and then from the hinterland to the west, and then from the west to the south, making a big circle around the horsehair mountain. The commander who led the Khitan army this time, named Xiao He, is forty-five years old, has been fighting horses all his life, full of experience, and often fights with Datang, winning more and losing less, which can be said to be clear about Datang's tactics. The reason why he came to the outside of Horsehair Mountain this time was that he had already received the news that the Western Turks, Tubo, Zhangxiong Dynasty, and Tuyuhun had launched a full-scale attack on the Tang Dynasty. Originally, the Western Turks wanted to unite with the Khitan and attack together, but the Khitan ostensibly rejected the Western Turks, but in fact had their own plans.

From the beginning of the Sui Dynasty to the present day, the Central Plains has repeatedly used troops against the Khitan, and the two sides have fought countless battles, but whether it is the Sui Dynasty or the Tang Dynasty, they have lost more than they won, and they have never been able to help the Khitan. Similarly, the Khitan did not dare to attack Datang, after all, the Khitan's national strength and logistics could not keep up, and taking the initiative to attack Datang would do more harm than good. But after learning of the Western Turks' plan this time, the Khitan began to prepare to be a yellow finch with a praying mantis catching cicadas. As long as the Tang Dynasty is tired of dealing with the coalition forces, the Khitan can take advantage of the emptiness of the Horsehair Mountain to break through the Horsehair Mountain and attack all the way to the inner belly of the Tang Dynasty. When the time comes, the Tang Dynasty will be monopolized, and the entire Central Plains will be in the bag. As for the Western Turks and Tibetans? If it is acquaintance, he will give up the Tang Dynasty, otherwise he said that after the Khitan will develop and stabilize in the Central Plains, he will definitely exterminate these second-rate forces!
