The city of Logos.

The city is long and narrow east-west, the north is Nianqing Tanggula Mountain, the south is the Jiqu River, the meaning of the river of happiness and happiness, originates from the mountain range in the north, goes around a circle, and when it arrives at the city of Luo, it is an important water source for the life of the city.

The last time Qin Huaidao came to Luoqi City, he had already explored the nearby terrain, and led a large army from the west of the city to the east of the city, and found an open area to camp upstream.

The army was crowded one after another, and finally settled down, and it was distributed in five ways, front, back, left, right, and middle, and the prisoners were pulled to settle farther away, so as to avoid miscellaneous accidents, treatment, recruitment, and training without delay.

The next day, Cheng Chumo and Xue Wanche left with the army and left.

Luo Ying led the troops to raid all the shops outside the city, screen the identity, as long as it is the property under the name of the Tubo royal officials, nobles and other names, as soon as the materials, gold and silver treasures are registered, all of them are taken away, but they are not satisfied, and there is no forgiveness for killing, and the few merchants who do not have noble status and status do not move and treat them differently.

When the people and slaves at the bottom heard that it was the army of the King of Han, they couldn't help but think of the King of Han's kindness to everyone, dividing the fields for everyone, giving everyone a full reward for fighting, and the name of benevolence and righteousness and kindness was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Lu Dongzan was called the queen, and all the fields distributed by Qin Huaidao were collected and distributed to those who supported the establishment to buy people's hearts, and those who did not obey the troublemakers were killed countless times, and the people and slaves at the bottom were suppressed.

Now I heard that the king of Han led the army to kill again, and they all applauded, no one jumped out to hold the grievances, and the courage to run up and ask whether to recruit soldiers, and imagined that there was a war there to get a reward.

Slaves have no sense of family and country.

The poor people who are struggling at the bottom also don't care who rules, as long as they are good to themselves, they will support it.

The raid went smoothly, Luo Ying returned to the camp with a large number of supplies, handed a list to Qin Huaidao, and reported the reaction of the people during the raid.

Qin Huaidao didn't expect that the good deeds at the beginning would actually gain people's hearts, this public opinion was used with infinite power, and he hurriedly glanced at the list of materials, and advised: "Keep things for the time being, don't mess around, those who surrender within three days must be returned, and confiscated after three days, in addition, post more notices, arrange people who understand the local language to lobby, let them contact the relatives of the defenders in the city, as long as they go out of the city to surrender, they can live, and distribute the consistent silver." “

This way came and seized a lot of silver, it is useless to keep it, it is better to spread out and buy people's hearts, the defenders in the city are only 300,000, and use 300,000 to solve a big war, why not?

There was no shortage of silver in the royal city.

Luo Ying agreed and hurriedly went to make arrangements.

Relying on people to lobby is not enough, and both grace and power are emphasized, Qin Huaidao found Luo Wu again, and advised: "Go to the city to erect the king's flag, no one needs to take care of it, let people who are familiar with the local language shout, those who go out of the city and surrender within three days, do not kill, and slaughter the city after three days, and leave no one behind." ”

Luo Wu's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "Uncle's clever trick, attacking the heart, we just need three days to raise food, three days for a period, everyone in the city must be suffering and sad, and it is difficult to sleep and eat, and besides, the slaughter of the city after three days will not leave a bad name, I will do it." ”

"Stinky boy, it's not a small progress, I actually see through the deep meaning, remember, shout every other hour, constantly disturb, create tension, panic, until three days later."

"Understood!" Luo Wu hurriedly walked out of the Chinese military tent.

Qin Huaidao spread out the map of some cities and pondered silently, although the city can be won by storming, the loss will not be small, and the city is already in the bag, it is very troublesome to destroy and rebuild, and it is best to take it at the lowest cost.

Gradually, Qin Huaidao's gaze fell on the river, a crazy plan emerged, and a smile hooked up at the corner of his mouth.

……

Also staring at the map was Li Er.

It doesn't matter if the states of Longyou fall into the hands of Qin Huaidao, Hezhou, Taozhou, Minzhou, and Qinzhou also fall into the hands of Qin Huaidao, which means that all the western sides of the Tang Dynasty are lost, and there are only two ways to get it back, one is to send troops to ask for it, and the other is to negotiate and ask for it.

The imperial court has just experienced a catastrophe, the people are panicked, it is definitely not possible to send troops, and no one is Xu Shiji's opponent, not to mention that after the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate was attacked by the Turks, the same people's hearts fluctuated, and they were dissatisfied with the imperial court, and they needed to send troops to recover and appease, the question was who could be the general? Who can be trusted?

"Newspaper—" A chamberlain hurried in.

Li Er looked up at the person who took Wang De's place, and asked coldly, "What's the matter?" ”

"Back to the saint, the military department sent an urgent battle report of 800 miles"!

"Bring it in."

The chamberlain agreed, stepped forward cautiously, handed over a battle report, and slowly retreated.

Li Er took it over and checked the seal, opened it after making sure it was correct, took out the battle report and looked at it, his face suddenly changed greatly, and his peaceful eyes flashed a terrifying killing intent, and quickly fell on the northeast direction of the map.

There is only one line in the battle report: Anton's capital protectorate sent troops to the grassland, but it was full of endless news.

After the imperial court recovered Goguryeo, Baekje, and Xincheng, it set up the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate to govern the entire Great Northeast.

The governor of Andong Dadu Hufu is Xue Wanshu, Xue Wanche's second brother, who formed a deep relationship with Qin Huaidao, the king of Han, in the first war of the year, and learned that the Turkic and Tibetan soldiers besieged Chang'an, and saw that the imperial court was declining, plus Xue Wanche took refuge in the king of Han, Xue Wanshu weighed it for a long time and decided to lead all the clans to join the king of Han.

Xue Wanshu decided to send troops to the west, taking advantage of the fact that the imperial court was not free to recover the steppe tribes occupied by the Turks, and gave the king of Han a greeting gift.

How could Li Er not be able to see through Xue Wanshu's thoughts? When Jinyang raised troops, I don't know how many families made a side and took refuge in the Li family, Li Er understood Xue Wanshu's choice, but couldn't accept it.

"Bang!"

"Bastard!"

Li Er was so angry that he smashed his fist on the imperial eucalyptus, and he didn't understand his hatred, and kicked the imperial eucalyptus over, and most of Anton's capital protectorate reversed, and the already small majesty of the imperial court was completely swept away, and it became a laughing stock, and a large area of land was lost from the imperial court.

As soon as this example was opened, I don't know how many people rushed to follow suit.

Shame, this is a monstrous shame!

A sense of crisis surged into his heart, and his determination to revive the rivers and mountains was hit, Li Er was in a hurry, a mouthful of blood overflowed, and he didn't care about wiping it, and his eyes quickly fell on the north of the map.

The northern steppes are also to be lost?!

Thinking of this, Li Er felt a deep sense of remorse in his heart, hating that he should not have alienated Qin Huaidao and become an enemy, if the King of Han was here, the court would inevitably be unparalleled, the soldiers would be in the world, and no one would dare to disobey, but now the people are panicked, the prestige is gone, the court is useless, and even began to defect, how is it good?

"I'm afraid I'm the most aggrieved son of heaven in all dynasties, right?"

"The dignified Son of Heaven has been reduced to this...... It's better not to do it. ”

Li Er was in a depressed mood, aggrieved, and sat motionless on the couch, like a sculpture.

In my heart, I have a lot of thoughts.

Think about the present, think about the future.
