Regarding the matter of King Wu leading the troops, Li Xiang's reaction this time was not so intense, and Li Xiang didn't want the Tang Dynasty to hang on himself alone, in case something happened to him, the entire Han nation might have an accident, so it was also a good thing to have two generals.

The reason why he competed with King Wu last time was also because when it was time to fight, if Li Xiang didn't come out, then what would the people who followed him think of it? They will feel that they are following a person with a nest, especially a senior general in the army, so Li Xiang must fight.

This time, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Li Shimin was caught off guard, not to mention that Li Xiang had just won the victory of the Eastern Expedition to Goguryeo, so he had to share a little credit with others.

And the officials of the imperial court can also calculate that the land on the Goguryeo side is not fertile, but at least it can bring profits to the imperial court, if Xue Yantuo is defeated, the land over there will be even worse, what can it bring to the imperial court?

The Tang Dynasty still doesn't know how to manage the grassland, even in a place like Tuyuhun, it is currently crossing the river by feeling the stones, and I dare not say that it is all in charge.

Then again, Xue Yantuo's area goes straight to Mobei, much larger than Tugu Hunke, Huo Qubing chased two thousand miles back then, and he didn't reach the northernmost point, if King Wu had a good time here, he didn't know how much it would cost Datang.

Another is that Li Xiang also wants to test it, and they all say that this third uncle can fight, can be civil and martial, and is the best among the princes of the Tang Dynasty, but he has never practiced it, and Li Xiang also wants to see how much ability my king has.

After waiting for ten days, the court mail from the imperial court was finally delivered, and everyone focused on Li Xiang's tent to see what news the imperial court had sent.

"This guy is really bold, his army has entered the do

G Turkic, do

The army of the G Turks has been severely weakened by us in the past two years, and when the eastern expedition to Goguryeo, there were more than 4,000 people who went out with the army, so they couldn't stop Xue Yantuo's cavalry at all, and it was already a big defeat, especially this Jichang Khan, who actually ran to Chang'an with people. ”

Li Xiang threw out the letter in his hand, and he was extremely angry in his heart, the king of a country ran faster than the common people, and threw down his own people at the critical moment, such a person is not worthy of being a Turkic khan at all.

"I have met this person before, it can be said that he is as timid as a mouse, the reason why our court pushed him to the throne is not without reason, in case there is really an ambitious one, what is it for us to look at the gate to the north? Or do we not sleep every day? ”

Su Dingfang told the truth, the Tang Dynasty has to find this kind of person, and he has no guts, but he didn't expect this guy to have no responsibility at all, and when he heard that Xue Yantuo's army was coming, he pulled his 20,000 cavalry and ran to the Great Wall.

When they arrived at the checkpoint, the Tang army didn't let them in, this guy actually threw away the remaining 20,000 cavalry, let them fend for themselves on the grassland, took his family into the Great Wall, and went all the way to Chang'an City, as for the life and death of the rest of these people, he didn't seem to have this concept in his heart.

"This is a difficult matter, it is not good to let the people of the subject country be too strong, and it is not good to be too weak."

Niu Jinda doesn't know much about politics, but he also knows that this matter is difficult to grasp, and Li Xiang didn't blame Li Shimin for this matter, even if he is in that position, it is impossible to see through all the people's hearts, and the most incomprehensible thing in these years is the people's hearts.

"Our people ......"

"Our men are ready, including the artillery team, I have streamlined it, a total of about 14,000 people, no matter how many large troops the enemy has, we can rush over in the starry night, and we can guarantee combat effectiveness."

Su Dingfang didn't wait for Li Xiang to finish asking and immediately reported the situation of his subordinates, this guy picked some elite men and horses in the whole army and formed a rapid reaction force, Li Xiang was also speechless, not that this guy was unreliable, but let what Li Xiang did become useless, Li Xiang used to break up the soldiers he exchanged from the system, and let them be distributed in the whole army, who knew that these people were found out by Su Dingfang, who let them perform well in peacetime.

Of course, Su Dingfang didn't deliberately show these people, if you want to form a rapid reaction force, you must be the elite of the whole army, Su Dingfang's eyesight for soldiers is still very strong, otherwise it would not be possible to win so many battles, Li Xiang really didn't know what to say after learning what this guy did.

"In the past few days, you have taken them to do some long-distance training, if there is nothing to do in the north, it will be regarded as a drill for us, if there is something, then you must have to travel a long way to rush over, and you must not let Xue Yantuo's people go south, the current situation is the best for us, and no one can break this situation."

Li Xiang slapped on the table, and the rest of the people also nodded, at present, the clan gate valve within the Tang Dynasty is weakened severely, the whole country is developing normally, and the surrounding tribes are not our opponents, once we let Xue Yantuo go south, this good situation is likely to be broken, and if you want to make it look like this, you don't know how much manpower and material resources will be wasted, so even if you want to help Wu Wang Li Xiang, you have to do it.

After another seven days, news came from the front again, and His Royal Highness King Wu had already organized 50,000 border troops, plus the army from Chang'an City rushed head-on.

"In your opinion, what are the chances of King Wu winning?"

Li Xiang doesn't know much about Xue Yantuo, Su Dingfang once led troops there, although he has not fought before, but he also knows a general combat effectiveness, whenever there is news from the imperial court, these people gather in Li Xiang's tent, in order to be able to practice in time and respond to changes on the front-line battlefield at any time.

"Tens of thousands of border troops in my Tang Dynasty have been fighting on the border, and their combat effectiveness cannot be underestimated, but I am worried that the army coming from the imperial court, if they are arrogant, there may be a gap in this battle, but if they are the same as the army we brought out, then Xue Yantuo will never have a chance of winning."

The border army of the Tang Dynasty has always been elite, even more elite than the forbidden army in the capital, there are no big wars, small wars have not stopped, as long as King Wu's brain does not enter the water, and the army of Chang'an does not stumble, then victory is within reach......
