Chapter 56: Protector of the Heavens
"What? Tubo is dead?! ”
Li Longji's first reaction was also incredulous.
Even with the help of Lu Tianshi, it wouldn't be so exaggerated, right?
Gao Xianzhi, the general of the Right Jingo who came to the Calyx Tower to attend the banquet, was also full of shock.
If Feng Changqing won the battle in Da Bolu, even if he destroyed the Great Bolu Kingdom in one fell swoop, Gao Xianzhi would not be surprised, but Feng Changqing was able to wipe out Tubo with 24,000 Anxi troops plus tens of thousands of Hu cavalry, but he couldn't help but be surprised, because no one knew better than him how fierce and difficult Tubo was.
Compared with the ferocity of the Tibetan army, the biggest obstacle to destroying the Tibetan army is the vast snowy plateau.
The snowy plateau occupied by Tubo is too big, whether the Tang Dynasty sends troops from Longyou or from Anxi, if you want to capture Luosome and then destroy Tubo, the army must march at least more than 2,000 miles on the snowy plateau, and pass through countless small countries in the middle, so that all the way to the past, the year of the monkey can enter Luo.
Therefore, Gao Xianzhi believes that Li Longji's Pingfan strategy is extremely correct.
We must not be in a hurry to deal with Tibet, and we must gradually encroach until the territory of Tibet is reduced to less than 1,000 miles, and then send troops from both Anxi and Longyou directions at the same time to destroy it.
I am afraid that it will take several generations, hundreds of years of war, to achieve.
But now, Ge Shuhan's 70,000 Longyou Army is still stuck in Jishi Mountain, and Feng Changqing actually wiped out Tubo with the 24,000-strong Anxi Army? How is this possible, how is this possible?
It was impossible for Gao Xianzhi to almost blurt out a sentence.
But in the end, this sentence was swallowed back by Gao Xianzhi.
Because he knows Feng Changqing, Feng Changqing is cautious and modest and an honest official, he is definitely not a person who falsely reports his military exploits for the sake of his personal reputation, so Tubo was really destroyed by him?
Yang Guozhong, Xian Yu Zhongtong, Dou Hua and others present were also shocked, and they couldn't come back to their senses for a long time.
After coming back to his senses, Jingzhao Yin Xian Yu Zhongtong couldn't help but sit up on his knees: "Sage, could this be Feng Changqing's greed for fame and fortune and false reporting of his military exploits?" With only 24,000 people in the Anxi Military Region, plus Anxi Zhuhu, how many people can they muster? With this point, people and horses can also destroy Tibet? Although it is only rough to submit to the military, he also knows that this color is impossible. ”
The expression on Gao Xianzhi's face cooled, just because you Xianyu Zhongtong also has a face called rough military?
If you are rough in military affairs, the Battle of Nanzhao will not bury the tens of thousands of elite forbidden troops in Chang'an.
Yang Guozhong was trying to figure out the heart of a saint, because he found that Li Longji's attitude seemed to have changed.
At that moment, Yang Guozhong decisively changed his position and said angrily: "Jing Zhaoyin is talking about something. ”
"Gah?" Xian Yu Zhongtong looked at Yang Guozhong with a confused face, and said in his heart, right minister, where are you singing?
Yang Guozhong sang a fat song with his hands crossed, and said to Li Longji: "Sage, the minister thinks that Feng Changqing is cautious and humble by nature, and he is definitely not a person who is greedy for fame and fortune and falsely reports his military exploits, so this good news is credible!" ”
Li Longji nodded and said, "Does the right minister mean that Tubo has indeed been destroyed?" ”
"Whoa." Yang Guozhong once again crossed his hands and sang, "Tubo must have been wiped out by the Anxi army. ”
After speaking, Yang Guozhong even had a sense of relief, because Feng Changqing had the great merit of Pingbo, at least he would be crowned the king of Anxi County, so that An Lushan would have a strong opponent who was evenly matched, so in the future, it would be much easier for him to take control of An Lushan as the right minister.
After all, Feng Changqing's personality is much more low-key than An Lushan.
And Feng Changqing has no foundation in the court, so he is easy to woo.
I have to say that Yang Guozhong really wants to go with Li Longji this time.
Li Longji also had the idea of taking Feng Changqing to balance An Lushan, which was the emperor's mental technique.
An Lushan is actually the weight that Li Longji used to balance the Shandong aristocracy and the new family gate valve, but in the past two years, there have been signs of getting out of control, but Li Longji has been riding a tiger and is unable to replace An Lushan in a hurry, and at the same time, he does not feel that An Lushan has the courage to rebel, and it is far from enough to have soldiers to rebel.
Now Feng Changqing's sideways kill gives him a better choice.
At that moment, Li Longji asked Yang Guozhong again: "How do you think the right minister should reward Feng Changqing and others?" ”
Yang Guozhong said: "This is the immortal merit of destroying the country, and it is particularly difficult to destroy the Tubo, according to the Tang law, it should be rewarded, the minister thinks that all the generals who participated in the war can be promoted to three to nine levels, and the soldiers who participated in the war will be paid three additional salaries, and the Anxi Festival makes Feng Changqing bear the first merit of Pingbo, and can enter the Lingyan Pavilion to be crowned the king of Anxi. ”
Hearing this, the civil and military forces present at the banquet were suddenly in an uproar.
Enter the Lingyan Pavilion and be crowned the king of Anxi County? This is already the pinnacle of Renchen!
Among them, Gao Xianzhi is the hottest, and he is almost crazy with jealousy at this moment.
More than ten years ago, Feng Changqing was just a child of guards, and he also suffered from leg diseases, and he even walked with a limp, and he couldn't even find a job in Anxi.
That is, he is Gao Xianzhi, and he doesn't care about these recruits to be a servant.
Who would have thought that just ten years later, this boy would become an envoy of the Anxi Festival, and he also led the Anxi army to exterminate Tubo, God, this is Tubo!
"The right minister is worthy of being the dry city of the Tang Dynasty, and this reward is very appropriate." Even if Li Longji is not looking at Yang Taizhen's face, he is actually very satisfied with Yang Guozhong, at least in terms of figuring out his intentions, Yang Guozhong has done even more properly than his predecessor Li Linfu, and Li Linfu will sometimes go against him.
After a pause, Li Longji asked again: "It's just that the right similarity is ignored?" ”
Yang Guozhong's heart jumped when he heard this, and he said that he even gave an opinion on Feng Changqing's reward, and ignored it?
Thinking of this, Yang Guozhong's heart was suddenly shocked, and he thought of a taboo topic - Lu Tianshi!
Since receiving the good news from the Anxi Army last time, Lu Tianshi and even the entire Taoism have become a taboo topic, not only no minister dares to openly discuss Taoism and Lu Tianshi in the palace, but even no one in Chang'an City dares to discuss it easily.
Of course, there are only rumors in Chang'an City, and few people know the truth of the matter, but Yang Guozhong knows.
Yang Guozhong not only knew that Lu Tianshi was really a person, but also knew that the great victory in Cyluburg was won because of the help of Lu Tianshi, so if nothing else, this time the Anxi army was able to destroy Tibet, and Lu Tianshi must have played an important role in it, but no one dared to say this.
But now, the saint actually brought up this stubble himself?
Could it be that the saint's attitude towards Lu Tianshi has changed?
I have to say that Yang Guozhong really has a seven-trick exquisite heart.
Li Longji just mentioned this, and Yang Guozhong immediately made up the truth in his brain.
At that moment, Yang Guozhong sang a fat song again, and then said: "Sage, the minister has not ignored it, how dare he ignore it?" The minister just thinks that the most important thing should be left to the end, saying that this time Feng Changqing was able to lead the Anxi army to destroy Tubo, in addition to the bloody battles of the Anxi soldiers and Hu Qijian'er, Lu Tianshi's guidance is also very important. ”
"Lu Tianshi?" Including Gao Xianzhi, the officials present showed strange expressions.
After a pause, Yang Guozhong said again: "However, Lu Tianshi is an immortal in the heavenly realm, not a mortal in the world, and the reward of mortals has no meaning for him. ”
"Just do what the right minister said."
Li Longji nodded happily and said, "Hurry up." ”
"Whoa!" Yang Guozhong sang again.
Very good, he bet right again, this time he has done this mission, not only will his power and position in the court be more stable, but he will also have a good relationship with Lu Tianshi, and maybe he will have a chance to ascend to immortal.
Yang Guozhong rushed down the calyx Xianghui Building.
He decided to supervise this errand himself.
……
In the real world, Lu Xiaoning came back from eating and logged in to the Dynasty app again.
Under normal circumstances, after clicking on the Dynasty app, it will be directly connected to the Datang World through the surveillance lens, but this time, it was not connected to the Datang World, but became a black screen.
I'll go? Lu Xiaoning's eyes couldn't help but widen.
No, has the window of time and space collapsed?
Just when Lu Xiaoning was at a loss,
Suddenly, two apertures appeared on the screen.
