Chapter 679: Movements
The people of Dunhuang took dry food and tools to build Buddhist caves spontaneously, and with the worship of the nobles, there was basically no cost.
Monk Lezun is not only very knowledgeable, but also very proficient in carving and architecture, instructing craftsmen on how to build, and also managing the entire site in an orderly manner.
This made Li Yue suspect that he had planned it a long time ago, instead of really seeing the "Buddha's light".
However, the construction of Buddhist caves is a win-win situation, and Li Yue has no need to refuse.
So many people worked together, the project progressed very fast, and in ten days, a stone Buddha image showed its outline on the stone wall.
In the cave, various murals are also being carved.
Li Yue's mind was on Qiuzi, and Murong Chui neither broke through nor sent people to ask for help.
On the contrary, it was Wang Miyao in the front of the chariot division and Xiu Mi in Shanshan Wang Xiumi to present more than 30 beautiful women, ten famous horses, and 12 cars of other jewelry and Pu pottery wine.
Li Yue gave back paper books of Confucian classics such as brocade clothes, swords, "Analects", "Spring and Autumn", "Book of Songs", "Zhongyong", "Shangshu" and so on.
The paper used is of the highest quality, the cover is covered with gold leaf, and the pages are spiced, and when you turn it, there is a dark fragrance floating.
It was Li Yue who specially used it to reward the envoys of various countries.
As for the military books such as Sun Tzu's Art of War, Liutao, and Wei Xuanzi, they are too murderous and not suitable to be given as gifts......
To tell the truth, the beauty selected by the two countries has a variety of styles, the big place is big, the thin place is thin, the people are hot, and there is a unique style in the eyebrows.
In the middle of summer, the clothes are also cool, looming, every move, people can't take their eyes off.
The key is to play and sing, and do everything.
Even Li Yue, who has never been very lustful, wavered.
If you can't live up to the intentions of others, you will accept them all.
I have to say that having a woman in company has added a lot of mood to this westward trip, and the days have passed faster.
"Your Majesty, Jing Xiang is urgent." Liu Ying really couldn't stand it, and always came to interrupt his interest.
"Jing Xiang?" Li Yue was shocked and waved his hand to let the women who were twisting their waists retreat.
"At the end of June, Huan Wen supported the rise of the Han River, launched a water army, captured Caiyang, Zaoyang and other cities, and abducted 7,000 people."
The last time thousands of people in Jingzhou defected to Daliang, a fierce battle broke out in Gucheng, and both sides suffered losses.
Now Huan Wen is taking advantage of his westward expedition and is about to move again.
"Huan Wen, this guy really has revenge." Li Yue laughed.
As long as Fancheng is still around, it's not a big problem.
There is Qin Biao in Fancheng, Mi Jin in Xincheng, Xu Cheng in Nanyang, and Huan Wen wants to find a place here, which is basically impossible.
Now that Daliang has moved its capital to Luoyang, it is equivalent to strengthening the suppression of Jingxiang.
Once Nanyang is in danger, the Luoyang army will come in a blink of an eye.
"What should the prince do?" Li Yue asked.
"The prince sent an envoy to reprimand Jiankang for not going down to the country, ordered Huan Wen to return to the people, and ordered Huan Yi to lead 40,000 Xuchang town troops to enter Xinye with great fanfare, build siege equipment, put on a posture of attacking Xiangyang, and Hefei Deng Yao sent troops to deter Dongguan."
Huan Yi is the prince's confidant, and he will definitely do his best.
This is to promote one's own people.
"Very good." Li Yue was quite satisfied with Li Jian's disposition, at least he did not recklessly dispatch the Luoyang Chinese army.
As soon as the Luoyang Chinese army moved, Tuoba Shi Yijian on the grassland also took advantage of the fire to rob.
Now is the critical time to recover the Western Regions, and the rear cannot be chaotic, but it cannot be too soft.
Huan Wen's attack on Zaoyang and Cai Yang was just a temptation, and if he was too weak, he would definitely pounce.
"What's the news on Tuoba Shi Yijian?" Li Yue suddenly became curious.
This guy has to jump three feet high for nothing, now that the Western Regions are so lively, he can't say anything if he doesn't come to get involved, Li Yue is not steady in his heart, and he always feels that something is missing.
"Tuoba Shiyijian led 30,000 cavalry to roam around the Hunyi Mountain."
Hun Evil Mountain is in the northwest of Juyan Sea, half overlooking the Hexi Corridor and half watching the Western Regions.
Tuoba Shi Yijian appeared here, and the intention of the snipe and the clam to compete for the profit of the fisherman could not be more obvious.
When the kingdoms of the Western Regions were victorious, he entered Hexi and cut off his retreat.
When Liang Guo was victorious, he advanced into the Western Regions and followed him to eat meat and drink soup.
The Western Regions are so big, there are countless cities in the north and south of the sky, and there are herds of cattle and sheep on the grassland, it is impossible for the Liang army to catch them all, and there will always be some missing.
Li Yue was disgusted for a while, this was like when he was doing errands, there was a thug next to him who was peeping with his neck stretched, ready to dig out the guy at any time......
In a way, this is a greater threat than the countries of the Western Regions.
The Hu people claim to have an army of 500,000, most of them are just herdsmen, and those who can really fight are at most one-tenth, they really have an army of 500,000, what are they still doing in the Western Regions? He had already taken advantage of the chaos in the Central Plains to enter the rich Liangzhou.
Tuoba Shi Yijian's 30,000 cavalry did not mix with water, and they were quite strategic in entering the Hunyi Mountain.
Even if Murong Trai defeated the alliance of all countries, he would definitely be exhausted, and the opportunity for this guy would come.
Changing places, Li Yue will also choose to do so.
"The Western Regions are in turmoil here, Tuoba Shi Yijian does not dare to set foot in it, it must be afraid of our army, the former Liangzhou War, Wang Dudu destroyed its 20,000 elites in a battle, and the vitality of the country was greatly injured. Liu Ying arched his hand.
The mission to the Western Regions failed, and he has always been haunted.
The scholars of this era are all capable of writing and martial arts, and last time he led more than 100 people to break through in a bloody battle under the ambush of 2,000 Hu cavalry, which shows his martial bravery.
"Brilliant plan!" Li Yue praised.
Criticize the weakness and attack the enemy's weakness.
Tuoba Shiyijian lost 20,000 horsemen in Liangzhou, and this time he dispatched 30,000 horsemen, and there are still 10,000 of his horsemen in the Western Regions as-stirring sticks, so there will definitely not be many troops left in the old nest.
Liu Yingzhi's strategy has a high chance of success.
There are still more than 12,000 Black Cloud elites around Li Yue, and there are 3,000 people, which has little impact.
If Tuoba Shi Yijian was aware of it, he would definitely not be able to stay in the Evil Mountain, and he would not be able to take care of the Western Regions.
However, it is a long way to attack Guyan Mountain from Dunhuang, and the desert next door along the way is not a small risk.
Tuoba Shiyijian also has capable people under him.
Liu Ying saw Li Yue's worries, and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, rest assured, if you can do it, you will do it, and if you can't, you will make a big show and deter Tuoba Shi Yijian." ”
"Yes!" Li Yue nodded in agreement.
Liu Ying is resourceful, has a steady temperament, and does not act recklessly.
Tuoba Shi Yijian's stay in Hun Evil Mountain is really a hidden danger.
Liu Ying immediately selected 3,000 elites, one man and two horses, and a camel, and marched south with dry food and water, and then detoured to the east to cover people's eyes and ears.
Li Yue watched the three thousand cavalry gradually disappear into the shadow of the distant mountains, and turned his gaze to the west, the wind and sand were rolling between the heavens and the earth, filled with a layer of murderous aura.
Now it's Murong Chui's battle.
Since he does not ask for help and does not break through, he must be sure of victory.
Li Yue has always disliked interfering in the battles of his generals, and this is true for Wang Meng and Murong Chui.
To add an explanation, the coalition forces of the Western Regions are in the "Book of Jin: Lu Guang Ji": The light attack on the city is urgent, and the silk is pure and poured the country's treasures to save Hu. Hu Di Nalong and Hou General Kui rode more than 200,000 yuan, and led Wen Su, Weitou and other kings, totaling more than 700,000 to save them.
700,000 people is really an exaggeration, and in view of the fact that the Book of Jin has always been not rigorous, the strength of this book is discounted in half......
