Cheng Yanjin jumped up excitedly and laughed.

"Li Yong, this kid is here with the Shenji Battalion, what are we waiting for here? Go and meet him! ”

Although Cheng Biting Jin and they are very qualified, and they are considered elders, Xu Shiji is the commander of this expedition, it stands to reason that no matter who comes, there is no need to greet them, but their relationship with Li Yong is extraordinary, and they are very excited in their hearts, so the three of them left the hall without hesitation and drove straight out of the city, Xu Shiji They just went out of the city gate to meet a group of cavalry straight to the city gate, the first person is Li Yong, the army is still behind, Li Yong arranged the camping matters and handed over the army to Xue Wanche, directly led the army straight to the city gate.

"Li Yong, you kid, I can look forward to you!"

Xu Shiji smiled, and Li Yong smiled.

"I've been waiting for you to return to Xinghai City, waiting and waiting, but I didn't expect to wait for the news that Tubo is torn apart, I even have to come to Fu Qi City, I knew that I would come to Fu Qi City with you in the first place."

Cheng Yanjin couldn't wait to ask.

"Did the sage order us to attack Tibet?"

Li Yong nodded with a smile.

"Of course, otherwise why would I come to Fuqi City with the Divine Machine Battalion? Are you here to see the scenery? ”

After listening to Li Yong's words, Cheng Yanjin and Wei Chigong were completely relieved, and immediately grinned.

"I've long wanted to kill my hometown in Tubo!"

"Haha, you can kill again! I hope Lu Dongzan will not disappoint the old man! ”

Li Yong looked at the two of them and grinned, just like looking at two big fools, and after laughing, Cheng Yanjin looked at Li Yong again.

"Li Yong, you kid, you should have received the holy decree a long time ago, why didn't you send someone to report the news earlier? Do you know how anxious we waited? ”

Li Yong shrugged slightly.

"I received the holy decree and immediately opened it, how can I send someone to report the news, it is not a day and a half!"

"Why isn't it half a day? Do you know how torturous it is to wait an extra day? ”

Cheng Biting Jin didn't have a good air, Li Yong immediately laughed when he heard it.

"Then you shouldn't blame me, you should be grateful to me!"

Cheng Yanjin scratched his head with some doubts.

"Gratitude? Grateful for what? ”

Wei Chigong also looked puzzled, and Xu Shiji said with a smile.

"I roughly calculated just now, from the urgent report to Chang'an, then the holy decree to Xinghai City, and then the Shenji Battalion marched to Fuqi City, and it was not delayed for a day."

Cheng Yanjin wondered.

"Didn't miss a day?"

Li Yong nodded with a smile.

"Well, the saint made a decree on the same day after seeing the report."

Cheng Yanjin and Wei Chigong were stunned when they heard this, and they made an order on the same day? That's too fast, isn't it? What about Wei Zheng, Kong Yingda, and Chu Suiliang? Couldn't they all be sick? It shouldn't be, it can't be so coincidental, all the civil officials in the court are sick, right? Cheng Yanjin wondered.

"How can it be so fast? Could it be that the civil officials of the court and the central government all agreed to attack Tibet? ”

Before he asked Li Yong to play a chapter to advise, he never thought that the sage would give an order so quickly, after all, even if the sage agreed to send troops to attack Tubo, but the ministers in the court objected, and the sage would not give the order so quickly, Li Yong said with a smile.

"Although there must be ministers in the court who oppose sending troops, but there must also be ministers who agree to send troops, as long as the saint is determined to send troops to attack Tibet, then naturally it cannot be delayed, otherwise the civil strife in Tibet will be over, wouldn't it be a missed opportunity?"

Xu Shiji said with a smile.

"The question is, how can we make the saint make up his mind to attack Tibet?"

Cheng Yanjin wondered.

"Yes, Li Yong, how did you do it?"

Li Yong said with a smile.

"It's very simple, put the facts and reason, the sage has a chance but doesn't solve it now, do you want to leave the hidden danger to future generations?"

Cheng Biting Jin slapped his thigh and shouted.

"That's not the reason!"

They only talked about what a good opportunity this was, about the strategic significance of Tibet, about the significance of the capture of Tibet, and about the certainty of the capture of Tibet, but they never thought about this angle, thinking about how the emperor had always loved his children, how could he leave this trouble to future generations? Moreover, what Li Yong said is indeed reasonable, if you don't take this opportunity to completely solve the trouble of Tubo now, you will have to deal with it in the future, even if you pay ten times and a hundred times the price, you may not be able to solve the scourge of Tubo, Xu Shiji nodded.

"Yes, Li Yong, you are very right about this, we must completely solve this trouble, and we can't leave this hidden danger to future generations."

Li Yong said slightly.

"Reason is indeed this principle, but the sage said that if you can't do something, you don't have to force it."

Although Li Shimin felt that this was a good opportunity to attack Tubo, but after all, Tubo is located on the plateau, and no one knows what the situation will happen after the army attacks Tubo, so although Li Shimin listened to Li Yong's advice, he did not strictly order the army to capture Tubo, if the war does not go well, Li Shimin can allow them to withdraw their troops back, even if they can't capture Tubo, Tubo will not become a threat in one or two decades, he doesn't want Xu Shiji, Li Yong and these 100,000 soldiers to be buried in Tubo, although they are all veterans who have been on the battlefield for a long time, But Cheng Yanjin, Wei Chigong, and Xu Shiji also sighed in their hearts when they heard it, how could the emperor secretly order that he would withdraw if he couldn't fight when he was about to go on the expedition? Xu Shiji and they couldn't help but glance at Li Yong, and the reason why they didn't like to say this was probably because of this kid, Cheng Yanjin laughed.

"The sage is too worried, Tubo has lost 100,000 troops, and now it is in a civil war, how can we not defeat Tubo?"

Yu Chigong also laughed.

"What I said is, if this can't defeat Tibet, then what face will we have to lead the troops in the future? Just go home and farm! ”

Xu Shiji also smiled.

"No matter what happens to the civil war in Tibet, in short, the strength of Tibet is very damaging and the people are panicking, as long as we fight steadily, it is not difficult to capture Tibet."

For this point, in fact, Li Yong also has great confidence, otherwise he would not have encouraged Li Shimin to make an order, Li Yong asked.

"By the way, have you read all the letters I gave you before? How's the preparation? ”

Cheng Yanjin said with a smile.

"Don't worry, everything is prepared according to what you said, those with old diseases have been singled out, let them stay in Fuqi City, and the three armies have been reorganized."

Li Yong couldn't help but nod when he heard this.

"That's good, I have already sent a letter to Minzhou for warm cotton clothes and medicinal materials, and I will be requisitioned directly from Minzhou, and the imperial court will supply Minzhou in the future."

In Li Yong's view, the biggest difficulty in attacking Tubo this time is to keep out the cold and altitude sickness, fortunately, the soldiers have been trained for a long time and are physically strong and have adapted to Tuyuhun for a period of time, but Li Yong still let the soldiers with old diseases stay in Tuyuhun, plus medicinal materials and cotton clothes, it should be no problem, as the puppet khan of Tuyuhun, Murong Shun is not as well-informed as Cheng Yanjin, Cheng Yanjin and they all went out of the city to meet Li Yong, Murong Shun only got the news, no way, now the defense of Fu Qi City can be said to be completely handed over to the Tang Army, As for the militia of Tuyuhun, they are all honest, and they really have nothing to do, many of them go home to herd sheep, although this is Tuyuhun's territory, but Xu Shiji, Cheng Yanjin, and Wei Chigong didn't remember Murong Shun's fake host when they were going to meet Li Yong, and this fake host was too nonexistent, because Datang needed him, the fake host, to manage Tuyuhun, a place where ethnic minorities were located, and when Li Yong entered the city, the guards at the city gate hurriedly came to report, Murong Shun heard the news that Xu Shiji and they welcomed the Rongfu County Duke into the city, and immediately understood, the Tang Emperor should have agreed to attack Tubo, otherwise the Rongfu County Duke would not have marched to Fuqi City with the Shenji Battalion, these days he has actually been looking forward to the Tang Emperor to order the army to return to the division, after all, if the Tang Dynasty occupies Tubo, then they Tuyuhun will have no future completely, and will eventually be completely incorporated into the Tang Dynasty, the Tang people think that Tubo is a place where birds don't, but in fact, Tubo also has a fertile grassland, Once the Tang Dynasty occupies Tubo, it will definitely not give up Tubo again, can Tubo withstand the attack of the Tang Dynasty? If Tubo had not been divided and there was a civil war, it would still be possible to resist the attack of the Tang Dynasty, but now, he didn't think that the fragmented Tubo would be able to withstand the attack of the Tang Dynasty, after all, the Tang Dynasty was too powerful, so, in Murong Shun's view, the arrival of the Duke of Rongfu not only meant that Tubo was about to perish, but also meant that their Tuyuhun country name would no longer exist, Murong Shun sighed, with a feeling of resignation, there is no way to think about it these days, there is no other way but to accept fate, and, If you actively accept your fate, you can still get wealth, if you don't actively accept your fate, let alone wealth, I'm afraid you won't even be able to save your life, so as long as you are not a fool, you know how to choose, who is the prince of Rongfu? In the next few decades, he will be an important minister with great influence in the Tang Dynasty, so after Murong Shun's mind turned, he immediately strode out, with a smile on his face, and said with a smile.

"Quick, prepare the horses!"

Not long after Li Yong entered the city, Murong Shun roared over with a smile on his face.

"Oh, the county prince came from afar, and he lost his welcome, and he lost his welcome!"

"The Great Khan is gracious! I would also like to thank the people sent by the Great Khan to Xinghai City for helping us a lot. ”

Li Yong looked at this puppet khan and smiled, and Murong Shun waved his hand again and again.

"The county lord is too polite, this is what I should do. The Tang Dynasty wants to attack Tubo, this is a great thing, but also for our Tuyuhun revenge, is to completely solve our Tuyuhun crisis, if the county prince has any orders to open his mouth, our Tuyuhun will be bigger even if the strength of the clan is great, but unfortunately our Tuyuhun is really heavy casualties, and I can't draw many troops, otherwise I will personally take the cavalry with the county prince to attack Tubo. ”

I didn't expect Murong Shun to be so happy, didn't Murong Shun know the significance of the Tang Dynasty's capture of Tibet? Li Yong didn't expect that Murong Shun had already thought clearly, and he had already accepted his fate, Li Yong said with a smile.

"Tuyuhun is seriously damaged, so there is no need to send troops, just find a few reliable guides for the tired sweat."

How many soldiers and horses can Tuyuhun draw out now? How much combat power can it exert? It doesn't play much role at all, but it has to let the Tuyuhun people leak the military information to the Tubo people, Murong Shun breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, it's not that he doesn't want to attack Tubo with the Tang army, he really doesn't have much money, Murong Shun patted his chest and said loudly.

"This is easy, don't worry, I will definitely find the most familiar and reliable guide for the county prince!"

Cheng Biting Jin waved his hand.

"Okay, okay, you go and prepare, today Su Xiaozi is here, on the one hand, he will catch the wind and wash the dust, and on the other hand, he will have to celebrate well, which can be regarded as a hero."

This posture looks like ordering his subordinates, but Murong Shun is not dissatisfied, after all, he has just experienced a life like a lost dog, and the so-called Great Khan arrogance in his body has long been sharpened, and his heart is like a mirror, Tuyuhun will only belong to the Tang Dynasty in the future, although he may be named the king of the county, but the true power position is far less than Cheng Biting Jin them, Murong Shun nodded again and again.

"I'm going to prepare, I must prepare a grand banquet for the Rongfu County Princess!"

Murong Shun, the host, was taken away just after saying a few words, although he didn't need to prepare the banquet himself, he only needed to order it to go down, but he also understood that he would affect Cheng Yanjin and them to talk here, although he wanted to stay and be close to Rongfu County, but he still left with interest, listening to Murong Shun's words, seeing Murong Shun urging the horse to leave, Cheng Yanjin couldn't help but sigh and sighed.

"What kind of grand banquet, Li Yong, you don't have to report too much hope, anyway, it's a light mare's milk wine like water, and there is roast mutton, roast lamb chops, roast lamb legs, to be honest, the old man's mouth is about to fade out of the bird, I really miss Chang'an! I miss the braised pork, the braised pig's trotters, the green onion and the large intestine, and the hot pot, what the old man misses the most is your fine wine! ”

Goo dong, goo dong, Yu Chi Gong swallowed two mouthfuls of saliva, and directly gave Cheng Yanjin a fist, no good airway.

"Don't talk about you, the old man can't stand it!"

Li Yong said with a smile.

"Okay, let's stop fighting Tibet and go back to Chang'an directly?"

Cheng Yanjin and Wei Chigong shook their heads again and again, and said in unison.

"How can that work? Tubo must be beaten! ”

The arrival of the Shenji Battalion suddenly made Fu Qi City boil, to say that the battle of Xinghai City shook the Tuyuhun people the most than the Shenji Battalion, about the power of the firearms of the Shenji Battalion has long been passed on Tuyuhun is miraculous, because the previous mercenaries and Li Yong's mysterious black army have been exposed in Tuyuhun, and they know that the Tang Army is going to take the opportunity to attack Tubo, Tuyuhun people are even more excited, most of the Tuyuhun people in Fuqiu City have not thought of the impact of the Tang Dynasty on Tuyuhun after the capture of Tubo, they are full of resentment and fear of Tubo, Therefore, they wish that Tubo would perish, Tubo would perish, they would no longer have to worry about being attacked by Tubo, for the Tang Dynasty, their feelings in their hearts are still very complicated, at the beginning they Tuyuhun was also ruthlessly cleaned up by the Tang Dynasty, lost their power and humiliated the country, and now they are ruled by a puppet khan, but they thought that since they surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, their life is good, and this time they were attacked by Tubo, if it were not for the Tang Dynasty to send troops, they Tuyuhun would really be exterminated, so, Even if many Tuyuhun people thought that Tuyuhun would probably be truly annexed by the Tang Dynasty in the end, they were not so resistant in their hearts.
