Chapter 71: Coincidental

Li Xuan, who didn't care about it at first, suddenly became enlightened after reading Princess Xian'an's letter and understanding Li Xuan's thoughts, and at the same time, he recalled the last few episodes before Li Xuan left Chang'an for the Uighurs more than ten years ago.

In the past, Li Xiang proposed to unite the Uighurs, Nanzhao, and Dashi to build an encirclement of Tibet to deal with the threat of Tibet at its peak, and in the face of marrying distant relatives, Li Xuan, who was only 15 years old at the time, was the only Tang princess to come forward.

A palace maid is not capable of winning twenty years of peace for the Tang Dynasty, Li Yu was dumbfounded by his fifteen-year-old sister, but it also made him really understand the high vision and tenacity of his sister.

In fact, Princess Xian'an and her relatives became the core condition of the Zhenyuan Alliance, and also became the most powerful guarantee for the alliance between the Tang Dynasty and the Uighurs.

With the conclusion of the Zhenyuan Alliance, from Uighur + Tubo VS Datang to Datang + Uighur VS Tubo, the attack and defense changed hands, and the strategic situation of Datang took on a new look.

At that time, Li Xuan's thinking was clear and he had great courage. And this time, Li Xuan also did not disappoint Li Xuan.

At first glance, looking at the content of the letter, Li Xuan's thoughts coincided with Guo Rong's ideas.

Li Xuan and Guo Rong both proposed that no matter from the strategic level or from the spiritual level, Qiuzi must not be lost, and Anxi must not be abandoned!

Guo Rong provided himself with ideas, and Li Xuan provided himself with methods, and the content described by the two added up, that is, to go to Mobei, cross the Tianshan Mountains, and enter Qiuzi.

However, thinking about it carefully, Li Yu always felt that it was almost meaningful, his sister, who was born in an imperial family and had a stronger strategic vision than himself, would have the same idea as Guo Rong, the hot-blooded young man in front of him?

It's not scientific!

Subconsciously looked up at Guo Rong in front of him, lowered his head and carefully studied the wording in the letter, and soon found the problem, Li Xuan's thoughts and Guo Rong seem to be the same, but in essence they are more radical than Guo Rong, and the purpose is even more different!

The Anxi army could even smelt copper coins and craft weapons on its own, while the Anxi army received supplies from the Uighurs, but was determined not to allow even a single Uighur to enter the city.

Therefore, the biggest problem of the Anxi army now is not the material or the city defense, but because the lone army has held on for too long, the fewer people are fighting, and the soldiers are getting older and older.

As long as there are people, the turtle can be nailed to the throat of the Silk Road of the Tubo people, so that the Tubo people are like a fish in the throat, and it is difficult to sleep and eat!

Learned the lesson of the North Court and received supplies, but did not allow the Uighurs to enter the city, this is what Li Xuan thinks Guo Xin is the most clever, Guo Xin dragged it down, even if he could only hold on for one day, it would be meaningful for Datang to hold on.

From this point of view, Li Xuan's plan is a continuation of Guo Xin's plan, which is in line with the Li Xuan he knows.

And what is the core of all Guo Xin's purposes, drag, drag Tubo to death!

And Li Xuan pointed out that the top priority is to replenish the troops of Qiuci, as long as Qiuci is replenished with a few thousand soldiers in the prime of life, Qiuci can continue to hold on and continue to bleed the Tibetan people!

Qiuzi did not accept the Uighurs, so the reinforcements could only be Tang Chinese, and it was obviously impossible to open up the Hexi Corridor in a short period of time, so in fact, the only feasible direction was to leave Fengzhou, enter Mobei, and kill back along the route of Guo Rong's attack!

Although they both fought back along the road opened up by Guo Rong, the starting points of the two were fundamentally different.

Guo Rong's essential purpose is to fight back to Anxi and save the last veterans of the Anxi army!

Li Xuan wanted to use Qiuzi to let the Tubo people drain their blood, and from a long-term perspective, this can also be seen as a continuation of the policy of imprisoning the Tubo people proposed by Li Mi back then.

The Uighurs, Nanzhao, and Dashi were equal to three outer shackles, and in the middle there was the Tang Dynasty, which was larger than the Tibetans, and there were turtles nailed to the throats of the Tibetans, constantly bleeding the Uighurs.

In this way, there was a reversal of the strategic situation of the Tang Dynasty against Tibet......

Thinking of this, Li Yu had to once again express his admiration for the policy formulated by Li Yu twenty years ago, and at the same time he was shocked to find:

Li Yu of Chang'an, Guo Xin of the Western Regions, and Li Xuan of Mobei, three people of different ages, different regions, different experiences, and without any consultation, actually joined forces to complete such a perfect trapping beast strategy.

And the strategy of these three people is connected by a hot-blooded young man Guo Rong who doesn't know such a layout at all.

Li Yu had to sigh that fate made people, but fortunately Li Xuan didn't directly let Anxi Army be cannon fodder, otherwise Guo Rong would not have had a seizure on the spot if he knew......

No, Li Xuan may not have considered letting the Anxi Army be cannon fodder, and glanced at the hot-blooded young man Guo Rong again, Li Yu nodded slightly, power and strategy are not all, blood and glory are the cornerstones of supporting Datang.

The basic direction is there, but the specific way to do it needs to be studied again, and it also needs to be discussed with his son, and it is just the environment of Anxi, and the selection of soldiers must be cautious, these things cannot be completed in one day today.

"Zhang Shouyi!"

"In!"

"Today's court meeting should be almost over!"

"If there are no special circumstances, it should be over!"

"It's almost, let Liu Zongyuan and them continue on the road, I'm afraid it won't be too late to catch up with the ceremony that Chun'er prepared for Xuan'er!"

"Yes!"

"Wait, Guo Rong, Yan Qing!"

"The minister is here!"

"Today I invited today's saint to conduct a grand ceremony for Xuan'er's clothes, originally the two of you were also going to participate, but I changed my mind temporarily, the two of you brought two hundred cavalry to return to Xingqing Palace with me at night, the ceremony was carried out by Yuan Liu Zongyuan and Yuan Hujun, you two I have other arrangements, can you understand?"

"Obey the order!"

"Zhang Shouyi, let Liu Zongyuan and them go!"

After Liu Zongyuan, Wei Guanzhi, Li Rui and several other people who knew the real people in the pavilion saluted slightly to the pavilion, the team that originally belonged to the protector escorted Princess Xian'an's clothes and continued to move forward.

Seeing the escort leaving, the serious look on Li Yu's face disappeared, and the initial smile appeared on his face again, and he was playful for a while.

"Guo Rong, do you remember the question I asked you at the beginning?"

“???”

"Marry Yan Qing!"

, I was still talking about Anxi just now, why did I go back to this question, is there a brain disease?

"Your Majesty, Yan Qing is a brother who has died, this joke really can't be made!"

Originally, Li Yu was about to say something more, but when he heard Guo Rong's sentence of "brother who passed his life", he looked at Yan Qing, whose face was already red, and then at Guo Rong, who was full of righteous indignation, and instantly broke the defense.

The Emperor Taishang, who was still controlling his smile, completely let himself go, sitting in the pavilion and laughing back and forth, and even tears were about to burst into laughter.

Li Chan state, Guo Rong's face was as black as the bottom of the pot for a moment, once the emperor has a bad taste, ordinary people really can't bear it......

However, this is not the end, he finally controlled his smile, and Li Chen's first sentence directly made Guo Rong break his defense.

"Guo Rong, you are such a wonderful person!"

Wonderful, wonderful, uncle, wait, let's first say that I married Lu Shishi, and then say that I am a wonderful person, shit, Guo Rong feels that his chrysanthemums are cold, and the emperor can't do it, Lao Tzu is not selling xx!

Fortunately, the emperor's joke ended here.

"Okay, Guo Rong, I won't tease you, what if Yan Qing is not your brother?"
