Gao Xianzhi was about to talk to Luo Quanjie about some details of the arrangement, but was interrupted by Gao Wu rushing in, he was slightly unhappy in his heart, so he said to Luo Quanjie: "You go down to rest first, and we will talk about it in the evening." ”

"That's good! I'll go down first. ”

Luo Quanjie knew Gao Wu, and when he passed by Gao Wu's side, he suddenly wiped a string of gemstone bracelets from his wrist and stuffed it to Gao Wu, turned around and smiled at Gao Xianzhi, and left the big tent.

The sudden gem bracelet did not suppress Gao Wu's anger, she threw the bracelet on the carpet and said coldly: "I don't want your bloody loot!" ”

Gao Xianzhi has been helpless for this baby daughter, the daughter is nineteen years old, so far there is no in-law, the year before last, his wife engaged her in Chang'an, is the second grandson of the former Anxi deputy capital Tang Jiahui, but Gao Wu wrote a letter to the Tang family in private, rejecting the marriage, which made the Tang family very embarrassed.

Last year, Gao Xianzhi planned to give his daughter to Xi Yuanqing, the soldier and horse envoy of the Quy Nhon Army who had just lost his wife, but Gao Wu refused and ran to the north court again.

The daughter has always been obsessed with Li Qing'an, and Gao Xianzhi also knows very well in his heart that if Li Qing'an is still his subordinate general, he will be 120,000 points in favor, Li Qing'an was originally his confidant, but now he is resolutely opposed to his daughter marrying Li Qing'an, both of them are officials in Northern Xinjiang, and his daughter's remarriage to Li Qing'an means that his Gao Xianzhi's Anxi Festival is over.

Therefore, he never hinted at any marriage to Li Qingan, on the contrary, he strictly controlled his daughter and never allowed her to have any contact with Li Qingan.

This time Li Qingan was convicted, Gao Xianzhi was afraid that his daughter would go to the capital to make trouble after she found out, so she transferred her to her side and followed her to fight Tocharo, but unexpectedly, as soon as her daughter entered the account, she embarrassed him, and Gao Xianzhi's heart was slightly angry.

"You don't want this bracelet, you rush into the big tent and disrupt my military affairs, what is this?"

Gao Wu stared at his father's eyes and said word by word: "I want you to stop the slaughter of innocent people immediately, you are humiliating the Tang Army by indulging military discipline like this." ”

Gao Xianzhi's face sank, "This is a military camp, not a home, if you talk to me like this, you will be beheaded!" ”

"Humph! I don't believe that I am the only one who persuaded you, so you will be beheaded by everyone else? ”

"Presumptuous!"

Gao Xianzhi slapped the table heavily and shouted angrily: "Someone! ”

After a long while, a few pro-soldiers came in, Gao Xianzhi pointed at Gao Wu, and ordered: "Drive her out for me, and don't allow her to enter the Chinese military tent again." ”

The soldiers had a bitter face and begged Gao Wuyang: "Fog girl, the handsome man has the heavy responsibility of the court, don't share the heart of the big handsome anymore, please go out!" ”

Gao Wu turned around and left, and walked to the tent door, she slowly turned back, and begged softly: "Father, even if I beg you, let the soldiers stop bullying those poor women, everyone has a mother, a sister, father, I look at them, I feel uncomfortable!" ”

Gao Xianzhi said slowly after a while: "I can promise you that if the Tocharian kingdoms take the initiative to surrender to the Tang army in the future, I can deal with them leniently, otherwise, not killing them is not enough to deter them." ”

Gao Wu saw that his father refused to agree, and he was extremely disappointed, so he had to leave the big tent in a gloomy mood, Gao Xianzhi saw her leaving, so he handed the gem bracelet to his confidant and said: "Give this to her, and send more brothers to take care of her, and she is not allowed to leave her tent at will." ”

He ordered to his own soldiers: "Quickly invite Luo Quanjie!" I said I was going to continue to talk to him in detail. ”

．．．．．．．． Three days later, the Tang army left the city of Ashu, and the army of the Gudu Kingdom took over the Yueshi Kingdom, and the Tang army continued to advance towards the next target, the Great Han Kingdom.

Just when the Tang army swept through Tocharo, the Great Eclipse Umayyad Dynasty had ended, and in June of the sixth year of Tianbao, the leader of the Khorasan people, Abu. The Muslims called for a reduction in taxes, held an uprising in Khorasan, Shia, Khorasan, and Abbasids responded one after another, and the wave of revolt surged, after two years of civil war, in October of the eighth year of Tianbao, the rebel army held an oath of allegiance in Kufa, and the leader of the Abbasids, Abu ? The Abbasids were proclaimed caliph, and the Abbasid Empire replaced the Umayyad dynasty.

The Abbasids marched westward, and in January of the following year, on the left bank of the Great Zab River, a tributary of the Tigris River, fought a major battle with the Umayyad army, the Umayyad army was defeated, and in April the capital Damascus fell, Merwan II fled to Egypt, and the Abbasid army pursued closely, and on the same day that Gao Xianzhi captured the Great Khanate of Tochar, the Abbasid army killed Marwan II in the city of Absir, Egypt, and the Umayyad era ended.

But at this time, the Abbasids were not in Damascus, but in Mulu, the capital of Khorasan, and according to the agreement at the time of the uprising, it should be the Shiite leader Shariq as the new caliphate, but the Abbasids were in the Khorasan leader Abu Kharasan. With the support of the Muslims, the position of caliph was seized.

Seeing that a new civil war was about to begin, and at this time, the main force of the Abbasids was attacking Jerusalem and had no time to suppress the impending Shiite uprising. Muslims cry about the atrocities of the Don army in Tochar.

The Muslims immediately saw an opportunity to ease their internal conflicts, and he brought Napola to the Abbasids.

In the palace of Mulu, the founder of the Abbasid Empire, Abu A. Abbas, who was about thirty years old, tall and tall, with pale skin and melancholy eyes, was pacing slowly in the dome with his hands behind his back, and his actions did not have the smiling majesty of a great imperial king, but like a poet, like an artist, sitting on a throne made of ivory, precious stones, and gold, bowing his head and contemplating, like the famous statue of the Pondering Being.

Next to him was Abu Abu, the second man in the Abbasid Empire. Muslim, a Muslim is dressed in a black coat, tall and burly, with a huge head and unkempt hair like a lion, which gives him the temperament of a leader, his skin is slightly dark, his forehead is broad, and his eyes are as sharp as knives, and he can see through people's minds at a glance.

But it was such a figure with the temperament of a leader, but in front of the Abbasids he was like a docile sheep, the sharpness in his eyes was not revealed, and he lowered his head and said unusually respectfully: "Your Majesty the Caliph, I think the Tang Dynasty's westward expedition is a good opportunity, we can negotiate with the Shiites, now that the infidels have invaded Khorasan, everyone should give up confrontation and fight against the Tang army with the same hatred, so as to buy us time, and when the battle east of the Amu Darya River is over, our main force should also end the battle of Jerusalem, It is possible to turn around and suppress Shiites. ”

Abbasid nodded slowly, then looked at his brother Jafar, who was standing on the other side, and asked him, "What about your advice?" ”

Jafar had been following the Abbasids in the northern and southern wars, and he was cautious and meticulous, but he was able to decide big things, he thought about it and said: "Although the advice of the Muslim governor is good, it is a risky move, if the Shiites take advantage of our crusade to start a rebellion, we will lose more than we lose, I think it is better to be cautious." ”

Ja'far and the Muslims disagreed, and their eyes turned to the Abbasids to see his final decision, at which point the Abbasids said: "The land of Khorasan east of the Amu Darya River cannot be lost, and the task of how to prevent the Shiites from taking the opportunity to cause chaos is left to the two of you." ”

After speaking, he stood up and walked towards the inner palace, and when he reached the gate of the palace, he stopped again, and said without looking back: "I will return to Damascus tomorrow, and the war against the Tang Dynasty will be handed over to the Muslims, and the army of Khorasan can be at your disposal." ”

When the Abbasid left, the Muslims smiled bitterly and said to Jafar: "Both of us have agreed with the caliph, so let's discuss how to keep the Shiites from taking the opportunity to cause chaos." ”

Jafar smiled: "Actually, it's very easy, didn't Shariq want to divide and rule with the Abbasids?" They want the land east of the Amu Darya, and the Shiite general Saupo dreams of becoming the governor of Samarkand, as long as we agree to these two conditions, and then tell them that the Tang army's westward march has cut us off from Sindh, and that we are sending troops to restore the territory they are about to possess in the east, so that Shariq will obediently wait for our triumph. ”

The Muslim thought for a moment and said with a smile: "If Your Highness is willing to go there in person, I think the effect will be better." ”

"Oh well! I made a trip myself, hoping that the governor would be triumphant soon. ”

．．．．．．．．． The Abbasids returned to Damascus, while Jafar crossed the Amu Darya River to Bukhara to negotiate with the Shia leader Shariq, while the Muslims gathered troops and prepared to counter the Tang army's invasion of eastern Khorasan.

This is the contradiction of time and space, in the territory of the Tang Dynasty, the Yueshi State, the Great Khanate, the Qisha State and other small Tocharian states are still the Tang Dynasty's fetters state, they are named the Yueshi Governor's Mansion, the Great Khan Governor's Mansion, and the Qisha Prefecture Governor's Mansion, but on the territory of the Great Food, they are already the eastern region of Khorasan, Gao Xianzhi taught them to keep them loyal to the Tang Dynasty, but he didn't know that he had entered the territory of the Great Food.

Ten days later, news came from Jafar that the Shiites had tentatively agreed to rule by the Abbasids, and that after the defeat of the Tang army, the two sides would formally sign a partition agreement.

By this time, the Muslims had gathered 50,000 Khorasan soldiers and were ready to counter the Tang army's invasion of Khorasan.

In the palace of the governor of Khorasan, Muslims and dozens of generals were making the final deployment, and he thought about it for ten days and formulated a complete plan to defeat the Tang army.

In front of the huge map, Muslims pointed at Anxi with a long wooden pole and said: "The Anxi army of the Tang Dynasty is only more than 20,000 people, and its elite are all taken to the east of the Amu Darya River, and the nest of the Tang army must be empty. ”

The long wooden pole of the Muslim pointed to the broken leaves and said: "This is the foundation of the Tang army in the Hezhong area, if it is not eradicated, the Tang army's invasion of the river will be endless, if our soldiers crush the leaves, the Tang army commander can no longer divide his troops at this time, he can only retreat north in a hurry to protect their foundation, then our opportunity has come." ”

After saying this, the Muslims said to Ibrahim, the governor of Barihe, "You can lead 10,000 cavalry to attack Ansi, and you don't have to fight with them, but you can make a noise, and after this battle, your army will be stationed in Farabad and Sindh to prevent the Don army from encroaching on our eastern part of Khorasan again." ”

Ibrahim bowed and saluted, "I'll go!" ”

At this time, the Muslims said to the general Qiyad: "The second step of attacking the foundation of the Tang Dynasty will be carried out by you, and the Shiites are also willing to send troops to fight with us, I will give you 10,000 elites, plus the Shiite army's 5,000 troops, a total of 15,000 troops, I hope you can sweep away the Tang army's base in the river in one fell swoop." ”

Qi Yade nodded and said in a deep voice: "I will definitely be able to defeat the Tang Army!" ”

"Not only to defeat the Don army, but also to take the opportunity to control the Shiite army."

"Yes! The subordinates understood. ”

Finally, the eyes of the Muslims fell on the king of the Yue clan, Napolo, and he smiled and said, "I have done my best to help you, and you should also help!" ”

Napolo was so excited that he knelt on the ground and cried: "Slave remembers kindness, so go back immediately, contact all countries, and fight against the Tang Dynasty together." ”

The Muslim finally glanced at the crowd: "I have already deployed the army, whether I can finally defeat the Tang army depends on everyone's bravery, everyone prepare!" ”

He raised his arms and shouted, "Long live Harry!" ”

"Long live the Caliph!"

In the shouting, the Khorasan army of the Great Food began to set off in a mighty way, from Mulu to the Amu Darya River is only three hundred and fifty miles, all of which are desert terrain, the Great Food Army is extremely adapted to this desert terrain, only three days, the main force of 30,000 Muslims arrived at the west side of the Amu Darya, he is not in a hurry to cross the river, but stationed on the west bank, waiting for news from all over the place, and at this time, Gao Xianzhi still knows nothing about it.

．．．．．．．． In late August, after Gao Xianzhi conquered the State of Jiesu, he suddenly got a report that there was another rebellion in the Qisha Kingdom, and the rebellion spread to the Yueshi Kingdom, the Great Qin State, the Great Khanate, and the Chisan State, and Luo Quanjie's army could not control it, so he had to ask Gao Xianzhi for help, and Gao Xianzhi turned south again and bloodily suppressed the rebellion of the Tocharian countries.

But the seriousness of the situation was beyond Gao Xianzhi's expectations, the rebellion of the Tocharian countries was not a separate battle, but a premeditated and organized joint operation, these small countries actually gathered nearly 40,000 troops, while he Gao Xianzhi only had 8,000 troops, although he did not put these troops in his eyes, but Gao Xianzhi still relied on his intuition for many years of warfare, faintly aware that the situation was not good.

Sure enough, when Gao Xianzhi's army arrived in the Great Khanate, he got a piece of news that worried him, Zhao Shen sent an urgent report from Zhao Shen, the commander of the Green Ridge, and a Great Food Army of about 10,000 people attacked the castle of the Green Ridge Guard, the Green Ridge was lost and the Tang army withdrew to Shule.

This news surprised Gao Xianzhi, he led 15,000 people to attack the Shushi country, the entire territory of Anxi has less than 10,000 troops, most of them are distributed in various forts and guards, each city is very empty, if this 10,000 food is attacked into Anxi, the consequences will be unimaginable.

He immediately ordered Zhao Chongxuan to lead 3,000 troops to quickly reinforce Shule, and ordered the 3,000 Tang troops stationed in the eastern section of the Honey Road to return to defend Shule, and no matter what, the Great Food Army was not allowed to invade the hinterland of Anxi.

After arranging the return of the army, Gao Xianzhi's worries became heavier and heavier, and the Great Food Army sent troops to Anxi, indicating that the Great Cannibals had intervened in Tocharo, which was the reason for the sudden rebellion of the Tocharian Kingdoms, and they must have received the support of the Great Cannibals, so that Gao Xianzhi began to suspect that he had fallen into a trap.

What worries him the most is that the Great Cannibal knows everything about him, but he doesn't know anything about the Great Cannibal.

In the afternoon of this day, the Tang army was stationed on the south bank of the Yueshi River, hundreds of camp tents stretched for three miles, the Tang army were exhausted and fell asleep, nearly a month of crusade to the east and west to fight their sharpness, the heat of Tocharian and the plateau terrain tortured the soldiers, many people fell ill, many people began to miss their hometown, they have been fighting outside for nearly a year, the white hair of their parents, the hard work of their wives, and the expectations of their children appeared in every dream of the Tang army. And the worry shown by the coach these days has made every Tang Jun uneasy in their hearts, what happened? What does the future hold for them? A mood of restlessness began to spread among the Don Army.

In the evening, two of the dozen scouts who were patrolling the neighborhood did not return, and the deserters appeared.

In the big tent, Gao Xianzhi paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, and reason told him that the best strategy now was to withdraw to Anxi, but before the first battle, he was scared back to Anxi by a few suspicious soldiers from the big cannibals, and his reputation Gao Xianzhi was ruined, and the western expedition to Tocharo returned in vain, how could he explain to the saint?

But if he doesn't return to Anxi, he only has 5,000 Tang troops around him, even if Luo Quanjie's army is added, it is only 20,000 people, and the army used by the big cannibals to attack Anxi has 10,000 people, so how many troops does the big cannibals invest? It was still 40,000 Tocharian coalition troops, and the situation was extremely unfavorable for the Tang army.

At this time, Li Siye walked into the tent and said, "Dashuai, I have something to worry about. ”

Gao Xianzhi glanced at him, nodded and said, "Say it!" What's the concern? ”

Li Siye slowly walked to the map, pointed to the broken leaf and said: "Since the Great Eclipse sent troops to Tocharo, it means that the civil war of the Great Eclipse is very likely to end, I am very worried about the broken leaf now, there are only three thousand people of Duan Xiushi there, once the Great Eclipse Army attacks the broken leaf, I am afraid that the broken leaf will not be protected." ”

Gao Xianzhi's face turned pale, he walked to the map in a few steps, holding a candlestick in his hand to illuminate the map, his eyes stared nervously around Broken Leaf, Zhao Chongyu brought the news of Beiting, Feng Changqing In order to clean Li Qing'an's lineage, he has basically transferred the army of the five northern cities of Broken Leaf back to Beiting, and now Broken Leaf is a lonely city, without any reinforcements, once the Great Food Army attacks, I am afraid that Broken Leaf is really not guaranteed, if Broken Leaf is not guaranteed, then he Gao Xianzhi will really be defeated.

At this moment, there was a rush of running outside the big tent, and a soldier shouted at the door of the tent: "Report to the commander, Duan Xiushi urgently asks for help, and tens of thousands of food troops are marching towards Broken Leaves!" ”

"Dangchang!" The candlestick in Gao Xianzhi's hand fell to the ground.

．．．．．． That night, the anxious Gao Xianzhi issued a military order, and the army set off overnight to march quickly to Shaye, and the Tang army marched north.

On the morning of the third day, the Tang army arrived at Tiwei City, which was still thirty miles away from the south bank of the Wuhu River, and at this moment, the scouts found that a large food army of about 20,000 people blocked their way in front of them, and behind them, 40,000 Tocharian troops chased after them and cut off their retreat.

An hour later, the 20,000 most elite Khorasan Benzong army was defeated in Abu. Under the leadership of the Muslims, slowly appeared in front of the Tang army, 10,000 camel troops and 10,000 cavalry were waiting for the whole army, they were waiting for a long time, the hunting black eagle flag fluttered in the air, and the black flag was overwhelming.

And behind the Tang army, the king of the Yue country, Nabolo, led 40,000 Tocharian coalition troops also appeared, and the eyes of every Tocharian soldier burst with hatred and anger, and their wives, their daughters, and their homes were all destroyed in the hands of the Tang army.

Forty thousand people suddenly burst out with an earth-shattering roar: "Revenge! ”

Gao Xianzhi waved his hand slightly, the Tang army set up a formation, a big battle is about to start, what is the chance of winning this expedition to Tocharo?

．．．．．．
