Chapter 290: The Eve of War

During this time, a total of more than one million students were enrolled, and the lively scene lasted until the end of July.

August is coming!

A round of scorching sun, high in the sky, the scorching sun was overhead, and all the plants, under the attack of the heat wave, were drowsy and lowered their heads.

But for some people, in addition to the heat and dryness, there is also cold silence, and the entire Tang Kingdom, like a machine, runs at high speed, and the atmosphere becomes delicate.

In the hall of the country, the court meeting was held again to discuss the September war, and everyone's faces were full of solemnity.

"Your Majesty, the twenty counties of the Tang Dynasty have gathered two million quintals of grain and grass, and millions of quintals of all kinds of forage, which can be described as sufficient grain and grass!"

The entire hall reverberated with Wang Jing's voice, which made people breathe a sigh of relief in their hearts.

There is a saying that if you have food at home, you don't panic!

"Okay, immediately send people, divided into twenty batches, to escort these grains and grass to the border. ”

Li Tang bowed his head and said with a smile, Wang Jing led the order and returned to his original position.

If grain and grass are the key to war, then weapons are the guarantee of war!

"Your Majesty, in order to cope with the war, the craftsmen of the Ministry of Works, working overtime day and night, forged 200,000 black iron arrows and millions of ordinary arrows. ”

"All kinds of armor, long knives, spears, shields, countless of them, piled up in hundreds of warehouses, forming an army of millions, is more than enough!"

Lu Ban stood up and said excitedly, making all the generals shine with their eyes.

"Yes, during this time, your Ministry of Industry has worked hard, and when the war is over, this king will have a heavy reward. ”

Li Tang remembered the efforts of the Ministry of Industry, and ordered Yan Zhenyong:

"All the warehouses will be transferred to the Ministry of War, and the various armies of the Tang Dynasty will go to select weapons to ensure that there is no shortage of weapons in the war. ”

This order was given because in war, weapons are easy to consume, and a good weapon can save a soldier's life at a critical moment.

"Yes!"

Yan Zhenyong stepped forward, bowed and said, but did not retreat!

"Well, the grain, grass, and weapons are very sufficient, what do you say about the soldiers and horses?"

Li Tang asked, thinking in his heart, how many troops should be sent on this expedition?

"Back to the king, the Changshan army, the Killing God Army, and the Qiongming Army are ready! In addition, the Xingzhu Army has rushed to Chang'an, and the local county troops can also draw 300,000 people!"

Without thinking about it, Yan Zhenyong said, he knows everything about the military power of the Tang Dynasty!

"Your Majesty, the last general will fight!"

After Yan Zhenyong finished speaking, Zhao Yun stepped forward, knelt on one knee, and asked to leave the station.

A pair of eyes, the flames of war are pervasive, and the revenge of killing should also be cut off by oneself.

"Your Majesty, the last general is also invited to fight!"

"The King's ......"

Bai Qi, Qin Qiong and others came out one after another, kneeling in a column, and the battle intent on their bodies rushed straight to the palace.

The true meaning of life, the mission of military generals, is to keep fighting!

After months of silence, their hearts were even more eager to fight!

This scene made all the civil officials boil with enthusiasm, feel that their hearts are burning, and their souls are shaking.

"Your Majesty, your subordinates suggest that this time you should send troops with the strength of the whole country and compete with Qi Tianhou Country!"

Xun Yu stepped forward, shook the feather fan gently, and said with a smile, very indifferent.

When Li Tang heard this, he frowned, did not speak, and looked at Jia Xu and Li Ru.

"Your Majesty, Weichen also supports Lord Xun and raises the soldiers of the whole country!" Jia Xu said.

"Your Majesty, the minister seconded the proposal!" Li Ru said.

The opinions of the three of them are all the same, as military strategists, their wise eyes seem to see through the future.

Li Tang trusted the three of them very much, his fingers tapped on the imperial chair, and after thinking for a while, he nodded and said:

"That's okay, raise the strength of the whole country, go out to conquer the country of Qitianhou, this time, this king, to drive the expedition in person. ”

The voice is firm and cannot be refuted!

A few days later, the army set out, and the people of Chang'an sent off ten miles, reluctantly, prayed in their hearts, and had a smooth journey.

This time, with three points of ambition, galloping on the field, with seven points of pride, squandering blood to kill the enemy!

............

Qi Yancheng also held a court meeting!

In the main hall, the atmosphere was depressing, and this depression came from the Lord Qi Tianhou, exuding a cold aura.

"Lord Hou, due to the suppression of the rebellion, a large number of rebel troops have been recruited, and 500,000 new troops have been added, and the food, grass, and weapons are very sufficient. ”

The prime minister said, looking at Qi Tianhou Lord, his heart was inexplicably cold!

During this time, under his induction, Qi Tianhou was like a different person, becoming strange, bloody, and terrifying!

"yes, got it!"

Qi Tianhou Lord, sitting on the dragon chair, said listlessly.

If there had been an extra 500,000 troops before, he would have been extremely excited and ecstatic in his heart.

But now, seeing that the demon soldiers are powerful, he can't show any interest in ordinary armies.

In addition, Luo Wangwei reported that in the Tang Dynasty, the mobilization of troops, the escort of grain and grass, and the transportation of ordnance are very frequent, and the garrison army at the Annan Pass has reached 300,000 and continues to increase. ”

The prime minister said, handed over the recital, reported in detail, and was serious and conscientious.

However, his dedication, Qi Tianhou Lord, didn't even look at it, and the carefully written music was thrown aside, like a faint king.

In this regard, the prime minister did not understand it very much, but he did not dare to ask, so he had to continue:

"The king of the Tang Dynasty has issued a royal decree to drive the expedition in person, and it is expected to leave at the end of the month!"

Hearing this, Qi Tianhou's calm complexion changed, the corners of his mouth turned up, and a smile appeared, cruel and bloody, and said gloomily:

"Dare to drive the expedition in person, this time, this king, let you die without a place to be buried!"

For Li Tang, in his heart, there is only hatred, resentment, hatred, hatred, and poisonous hatred!

This hatred is like the sea, this hatred is like the mountain, if there is water in the sea, the hatred will not disappear, if the mountain has a mausoleum, the hatred will not end!

It's all because of Li Tang that he became a demon, he became a slave, and he was worse than dead!

Inside the main hall, the crows were silent, the silence was frightening, and in the face of the angry Qi Tianhou Lord, they all bowed their heads towards the Chinese military officials!

"Order, mobilize the whole country's army, Chen Bing Beiyan County, and the Tang Kingdom, fight to the death. ”

In the end, Qi Tianhou ordered loudly, three black dragons of luck, exuding imperial might.

All the ministers, prostrate on their knees, respectfully accepted the order, and did not dare to stand up until the Lord Qi disappeared, and their pale faces revealed fear.

"Prime Minister, you said that you are waiting for the lord, what ......?"

A military general, confused, said in a very small voice, only two of them could hear it.

"Alas, I don't know, maybe it's the Tang Kingdom that has changed the candidate. ”

The prime minister said, his eyes were melancholy, looking at the royal chair, a little dazed, there are some people, who have changed, and they can never look back.

"When the war is over, I will also resign, say goodbye to the old man and return to his hometown, and retire for the rest of his life!"

After a while, the prime minister came to his senses, said in his heart, and walked outside, staggering, looking at the sun, squinting.

The scorching sun is like fire, the earth steamer, making people breathless, gray hair, gradually wet with sweat.

A few days later, the fifty army, under the leadership of Lord Qi Tianhou, advanced to the north.

Beside him, there were two black-robed armies, who couldn't see their true faces clearly, exuding a cold and evil aura!
