In the Zichen Palace, above the imperial case, there are not only concerts from Hezhou, but also some related things.

Liu Boying, the secretary of Honglu Temple, took the interpreter of his subordinates and placed a blood-dripping epaulette in front of the emperor's eyes.

The interpreter solemnly arched his hand and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the Queen of Heaven, it reads 'Auspicious Eternal Resort, Messenger of Light,' this auspicious eternal resort is now the Tibetan Tashi Rekexi Dam, according to records, there was indeed a race called the Goba tribe that lived there, but later, this race disappeared inexplicably. ”

"It's not like they're gone, they're all chosen to join the Light Army." Li Zhi looked at the broken knives, epaulettes, buttons, Buddha beads, and these bloody things on the table, and said with a cold look in his eyes: "Back then, it was they who forced the Tuyuhun tribe, which had already fled far away, to raid Guo Beifeng's logistics army, and finally led to the defeat of Dafeichuan, and now, these people have appeared again." ”

Empress Wu picked up Li Xuan's recital, looked down and read it again, and then said: "The king of Nanchang said here that the two hundred cavalry who returned from patrolling happened to meet the Tubo people who were resting in the cavalry camp, and then launched a surprise attack, twice as many as the enemy, or cavalry, and faced the Tubo Guang army that came over the mountains and mountains, and the physical strength was almost exhausted, and the battle was actually scorched, and even if it were not for the timely support of another two hundred cavalry, they would probably be wiped out." ”

Li Zhi's expression was solemn, he knocked lightly on the imperial case, and said in a deep voice: "Twenty-seven Lang has always acted cautiously, and when the right leader Wei army went to Bingling Lake, he had already sent people to patrol the mountains, the purpose was to prevent Tubo from sending people to burn the grain and grass.

The six battalions of cavalry, each with its own tasks and patrol areas, if it were not for the insiders, there was no way to know their movement position and rules, the Tubo people thought that they had taken a big advantage, and casually occupied an empty camp, who knew that the cavalry would be killed back so quickly. ”

"But even so, four hundred cavalry surrounded and killed a hundred light troops, and in the end they killed and wounded a hundred people, killed ninety-three enemies, and not one of them lived, and seven were run away." Empress Wu shook her head and said dissatisfiedly: "The concubine knows that those right guard cavalry are not elite, but they are also cavalry, and they are almost one-to-one killed and wounded, if they are not too weak, or those light soldiers are too strong." ”

Empress Wu glanced at Li Zhi, and then looked at Gao Kan, the squire of the inspection and military department, who was standing behind Liu Boying, the secretary of Honglu Temple.

Gao Kan bowed his hand slightly: "Your Majesty, the Queen of Heaven, the minister understands the king of Nanchang, and the right guard cavalry is under his hands, and the combat power will not be weakened, but will become stronger and stronger, so the strength of this Tubo Guangjun should indeed be expected." ”

Li Zhi nodded in agreement, and then chuckled: "Twenty-seven Lang said in the recital that he estimated that there were 1,000 light troops in the hands of the Qinling, but I thought that in the hands of the Qinling, there should be 3,000 light troops, or even more. ”

After Li Zhi finished speaking, Liu Boying and Gao Kan both showed great surprise on their faces, why would the emperor judge like this.

In fact, Liu Boying and Gao Kan are inclined to agree with Li Xuan's judgment.

A thousand elites, send a hundred people to save their younger brother, the theory is reasonable, but three thousand people to send a hundred, it is too indifferent.

Li Zhi glanced at the relics of the Guangjun on the table, shook his head, and said: "As a courtier, Qinling must have one-third of the Guangjun army that cannot be mobilized, and the other one-third, as the reserve of the army, so there are only one thousand Guangjun soldiers left who can be commanded at will." ”

"King Nanchang's judgment does have a certain amount of truth, but he didn't take into account the development of the situation, nor did he consider the way to get along with the monarch and the minister, so he can understand it if he can't see the overall situation." Empress Wu comforted Li Zhi softly, and after speaking, he looked up at the other important ministers and said softly: "More than a thousand light troops are enough to deal with the enemy from the east." ”

"In the land of Qingdong, there are many mountains, high mountains and cliffs, dangerous peaks are like blades, it is not easy to display more troops, and small troops with fewer troops are easier to gain, and Qinling should think so." Li Zhi smiled lightly, shook his head, and said, "Fortunately, Songtsan Gampo is dead, and Mangsong Mangzan has no days left. Now that Qinling can have 3,000 light troops in his hands, it is enough to show that the lord of Tubo still has a certain control over the overall situation. ”

Everyone present couldn't help nodding slightly at the same time, on Qinling is just a courtier after all, although he controls the state politics of Tubo, but the Tubo royal family is definitely not a puppet.

Li Zhi turned his head to look at Gao Kan and said directly: "Command the staff department of the military department, let them establish more Guangjun files." It's okay now, if he can fight Luo some in the future, these light troops are the biggest enemies of our dynasty. ”

"The Ministers will obey the Holy Decree." Gao Kan immediately bowed down, and now he is responsible for handling part of the affairs of the military department, and everything related to the war is ordered by him.

"As for the next ......" Li Zhi still couldn't help but groan, and his eyes subconsciously glanced at the southwest.

"Spread the decree, order all the armies to be careful, once this batch of Tubo light army is used in a centralized manner, in a certain direction, the consequences will be absolutely terrible." Empress Wu couldn't help but answer, the corners of her mouth pursed, and she thought of the overall situation.

Although Datang is now conquering Tibet, the Ten Route Army is divided into priorities and different strengths, and once it is caught by the shortcomings and chased and beaten fiercely, the consequences are absolutely unimaginable.

"Then the queen mother, now on the front line of Taohe Road, do you want to mobilize a large army to support, after all, once the front line is critical, the consequences are unpredictable." Li Xian's expression couldn't help but reveal a hint of worry.

"Mobilize the army?" Empress Wu couldn't help but laugh a little, shook her head, and said: "You go to see that recital yourself, in the recital of the king of Nanchang, is there a word of asking for help?" ”

Li Xian was slightly stunned, and then recalled that in Li Xuan's recital, there was really no meaning to ask for help.

"Erlang, you underestimate the king of Nanchang too much." Li Zhi chuckled, glanced at Empress Wu, shook his head, and said, "Erlang, haven't you noticed, even if there is no secret entry of this light army, the entire Hezhou has been tightly arranged. Anyone who comes from Tibet, I'm afraid that he can't walk a few steps, he will be found immediately, and with the temperament of Twenty-Seven Lang, he already knows that the Tubo people will come, and all kinds of means will be used in the future, and if the Tubo people don't come, they will all have to die there. ”

"Your father asked the king of Nanchang to supervise the army's grain road, but it was not arranged arbitrarily, with him, the army's grain road is absolutely worry-free, and there can be additional gains." Empress Wu smiled lightly, with a hint of pride on her face, as if this proposal was made by Empress Wu.

Li Xian really didn't expect Li Xuan to have such a high evaluation here in the Empress Wu.

Even Li Xuan himself couldn't have imagined that Empress Wu and the emperor had so much confidence in him.

"There is no obstacle to defending the city, and it is naturally no obstacle to guarding the grain road." Li Zhi waved his hand directly and said, "Summoning the king of Nanchang, if he encounters the Tubo Guangjun again, he will leave all of them behind, and no one will be allowed to run away." ”

"Whoa!" The corners of Li Xian's mouth twitched slightly, just now he also said that the king of Nanchang was able to hold the grain road under the surprise attack of the Tubo Guang army, but now he suddenly went one step further, and asked him to take down the Tubo Guang army he encountered, he was really unlucky.

"And Lanzhou, tell that since the Guangjun has appeared, then there must be a deeper plot for Qinling, let him be careful." Empress Wu immediately added another sentence.

"Whoa!" When Lanzhou was mentioned, everyone immediately gave up.

Li Zhi nodded slightly, and then said: "And that colleague, I originally thought it was just an opportunity to break through, but now it seems that I have to take it, otherwise the Tubo people will continue to break through from there to disturb the rear of Hezhou." ”

"This time, they guessed that the purpose of this group of light troops was not the grain and grass of the army, after all, now is not the best time to raid the grain road, so they guessed that their purpose was to bypass Hezhou and go straight to Lanzhou, for the sake of the Brenzan blade." Empress Wu paused for a moment, and said faintly: "Save him, or kill him." ”

Li Zhi bowed his head slightly, at this time, the army has not even advanced, what is the point of doing it to the grain road at this time.

It is nothing more than a delay of one or two days in the advance of the army, which is not beneficial to the overall situation.

Destroying the grain road is such a thing, and Qinling can do it if he sends one or two people at will, so why send a light army.

Since it is sent, it naturally has a more far-reaching purpose.

"Order, let the king of Nanchang send those things of the Guangjun to Lanzhou, let Lanzhou use them 'carefully', and at the same time strengthen the protection of the Brenzan blade." Li Zhi looked up at Gao Kan, and Gao Kan immediately surrendered his hand: "The minister receives the order." ”

"Father, do you want to send an order to Uncle Wang, let him quickly find out the few Tubo people who fled." Li Xian's expression brought a hint of worry, and he said softly: "It is possible for them to go to Lanzhou, and naturally they may also go to Taozhou to endanger San Lang." ”

"It's a good idea, but unfortunately, these people may not be able to get out of Hezhou at all." Li Zhi glanced at Song Zhang again, and said in a low voice: "Twenty-seven Lang has already asked Di Renjie to be left behind, responsible for investigating the matter of escaping the Guang Army. ”

"Then leave Di Renjie to the king of Nanchang." Empress Wu was very straightforward, and then said: "Di Renjie is a good hand at judging cases, and it is his job to find someone to arrest people." ”

"Good!" Li Zhi raised his head and said, "Ling Di Renjie is the patrol envoy of Taohe Road, and he is in charge of the secret spy in Tubo. ”

"Whoa!" Li Xian immediately gave up.

Li Zhi's face suddenly became solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "This time the army is in a battle, it is better to be slow than urgent, and tell the commanders of all the armies to be cautious and dangerous." ”

"Your Majesty has also found out." Empress Wu gently came to Li Zhi's side.

Li Zhi nodded and said, "On Qinling, there is a bit of a mess, this is very different from him. ”

"Maybe he's really in a hurry." Empress Wu smiled lightly.

"He's in a hurry, so we can't be in a hurry." Li Zhi picked up Li Xuan's recital on the table again, re-read it, and then said: "Spread the message to the king of Nanchang, let him do everything by himself, and he would rather not make a mistake than make a mistake." ”

"Whoa!"

"Also, let Shang Pharmacy send a little more fetal medicinal materials to the Nanchang Palace, in two and a half months, the princess of Nanchang should be in labor, you must take care of it." Empress Wu's face brought a rare trace of worry.

When a woman gives birth, there is no difference between going through a ghost gate.

"Yes, let the people from the hospital run more diligently." Li Zhi couldn't help but smile a little bitterly, and said: "If something really happens to the princess of Nanchang, I'm afraid that the two foxes, one old and one young, will inevitably blame me." ”

There are not many people in this world who can hold Li Zhi, and now the moment is special, but there are two more people.

Li Xian nodded slowly, and then said: "Either the princess will let the princess go over and take a walk, the princess has lived in the East Palace for a long time, and her mood is inevitably depressed, so she will go to Nanchang Wangfu to relax, and then ask Aunt Wang about pregnancy by the way, they are close in age, and some things are easy to say." ”

"Let's do it." Li Zhi nodded, then immediately waved his hand and added: "Let Jin Wuwei clean the street, so that no ambitious people will collide indiscriminately." ”

"Where are the ambitious people." Empress Wu glanced at Li Zhi angrily, and then said in a solemn voice: "Decree Dali Temple, Criminal Department, Chang'an Wannian County, within this year, strictly judge the case, clean up the lawsuit, and make sure that the world is clear, and there must be no resentment." ”

"Obey the order!" Everyone present immediately bowed down.

Empress Wu couldn't help but sigh lightly: "It's a pity, it would be nice if Di Renjie was in Chang'an." ”

Li Zhi nodded in agreement.
