Chapter 153: The army is surging
,
There are only more than 100 great monks in the Black Khanate, and the Tang Dynasty dispatched forty or fifty great monks just for a retaliatory action.
At this time, they intuitively understood how big the gap between the Black Khanate and the Tang Dynasty was.
"Don't say that the Tang Dynasty is only the strength of the monks of the Tang Dynasty's Western Regions Protectorate, and our Black Khanate is afraid that it will be difficult to compare, right?"
When Saidianchi's raid was successful, and he searched for suspicious characters in Barsi Khan City, these Black Khanates, who had been bought by the Western Regions Trading Houses and had close contacts with the Tang people, were shocked by Saidianchi's power, and everyone was in danger, for fear that their dealings with the Tang people would be caught by Saidianchi.
After all, at that time, the strength of Saidianchi was more than a dozen great monks and more than 300 qi cultivators, and this kind of strength was close to the total strength of the monks in Ba'er Khan City!
Facing the precarious situation at that time, some of them even had the idea of confessing to Saidianchi and helping the Supervision Yuan to arrest the monks of the Western Regions who were dealing with them.
Although they will definitely suffer in this way, there is a confession plot, plus the merit is reversed, and more money is given to Saidian, they may not be able to save their lives.
At that time, the pressure on them was too great.
They were afraid that they would be pulled out by the powerful Saidian, and they would end up with a dead clan. When people are trembling, in order to save their lives, they can do anything, even if it is a risk, it is better than waiting for death, as long as there is hope, even if it is extravagant, it is worth fighting.
Fortunately, Buchen came back quickly, stabilized them in time, and the actions arranged by Zhang Changan and others also quickly achieved results.
And the monk power dispatched by Datang at one time finally made these people realize that it is actually safe to follow Datang, if it is a temporary backwater, the person who betrayed the Western Regions Commercial Bank, and went against Datang, then I don't know when my head will move!
This is much more terrifying than facing the Saidian Red and Crescent Moon Sect.
"The operation has worked well, and these days, the attitude of the night and others towards us has changed a lot. If before, they were lured by profit and had reservations about us, then now they realize that it is not difficult for the Tang Dynasty to capture the Black Khanate, and their future and destiny are in our hands to a certain extent.
"So now, the mood of the night is very high, and they are also respectful to us, and they have the posture of treating us as ancestors!"
When Buchen reported these things to Li Ye, there was joy and pride on his face that could not be concealed.
This operation made such a big noise, and it was intended to deter and stabilize the hearts and minds of the "spies" of the Black Khanate - not only in the city of Balsi Khan. Now that the situation is developing as expected, Li Ye is also quite satisfied.
"After all, the Black Khanate is the territory of the Crescent Moon Sect, and the city of Barth Khan is the easternmost big city, so we can gather a lot of monk strength and give the Crescent Sect a surprise thunderbolt blow, but we can't make such a big splash about the actions of other places. ”
Li Ye told Buchen not to get carried away, "The army has not come, our monks have forcibly entered other people's territory, and cultivation will still be somewhat suppressed." If we are to compete with the Crescent monks on a large scale, we will not take advantage. ”
Buchen hurriedly bowed down, indicating that he was taught.
"Zhang Changan and the others should go to Broken Leaf City, right?" Li Ye asked, Broken Leaf City was called Balasagon in the Black Khanate, but in the mouth of the Tang people, they naturally still habitually and stubbornly called it Broken Leaf City.
"It's here. Shattered Leaf City is the capital of the Black Khanate, where there is the main force of the Crescent Cult in the Black Khanate, Ruo

It is Zhang Changan and others who have acted smoothly, and it is estimated that they will gain a lot. Buchen hurriedly said.
Li Ye bowed his head slightly and said no more.
At this time, in Qiuzi City, in the Western Regions Protector's Mansion, another Li Ye, the incarnation of the Emperor's Eye, was also listening to Zhang Huai's deep report on the military situation.
"Your Majesty, there are already a lot of great monks who have come by order these days, reaching five hundred. According to His Majesty's arrangement, they did not walk around the streets, but all meditated in their arranged quarters, ready to be sent at any time. ”
Zhang Huai bowed deeply and said, "In addition, there are a lot of grain and ordnance, and the original twenty-six granaries and eighteen ordnance warehouses in the Duhu Mansion are now all full. The baggage that will be shipped will be sent to the newly built warehouses, which were completed yesterday and all of them have been completed. ”
"You've done a good job. Li Ye affirmed Zhang Huaishen's hard work.
The soldiers and horses did not move the grain and grass first, Li Ye has been preparing for this battle for five years, all kinds of factors that can be taken into account have been taken into account, and the battle situation has been deduced countless times, and now just wait for the soldiers and horses to arrive in the Western Regions, a thunder offensive will be launched.
At that time, for the military and civilians in Central Asia, it should be a movement not much different from the sky falling.
The capital of the Great Eclipse had migrated from Baghdad to Samara a few years ago due to the control of the Turkic Guards, and later moved back to Baghdad due to the revival of Mullen.
Of course, this is not much difference between Li Ye and Tang Jun, they are both in the two river basins, that is, the Mesopotamian plain.
From the Western Regions Protectorate to Baghdad, the straight-line distance is about 7,000 miles. Naturally, the march could not take a straight line, so it was a real 10,000-mile campaign.
However, it is far away, and the distance from the Western Regions Protectorate to Baghdad is actually similar to that of Yangzhou.
When you think about it, it doesn't seem that long. The army from Huainan was going to regain the Western Regions, which didn't sound like something unthinkable.
"The more than 500 great monks who came to Qiuzi all had to master the Turkic and Great Eclipse languages with the preaching jade slips, and they were trained by the Western Regions Trading Houses to let them know the living habits of the Turks, Uighurs, and Great Cannibals. ”
Li Ye has his own arrangement for these five hundred great monks, which is centered on the actions of the Western Regions Commercial Bank, "When the time comes, they will be broken into pieces, and under the leadership of the Western Regions Commercial Bank monks, they will enter the Black Khanate and the Great Food Country to complete their mission." ”
This matter is mainly the responsibility of the Western Regions Commercial Bank, and Xu Ge, who was present, bowed and promised.
She is the successor cultivated by Song Jiao, whether it is her cultivation strength or her talents in all aspects, she is second to none in the Tsing Yi Yamen.
This time, she regretted that she couldn't go deep into the Black Khanate and the Great Food Country in person, because she knew that if Zhang Chang'an's action was achieved, it would be a shocking scene, and there would be great credit, and his experience would inevitably become an eternal legend of the Tsing Yi Yamen.
Now that Song Jiao is in Chang'an, Xu Ge, as the successor, wants to cultivate the ability to outline and lead the overall situation, and it is natural not to go to the Black Khanate and the Great Food Country.
It is precisely because of her that the training of more than 500 great monks can be completed in a very short time.
"Your Majesty, according to the plan made before, in the autumn and July, the army will arrive in the Western Regions, and the vanguard army will directly attack the Black Khanate, and now the time is only two months. If Zhang Changan, Nangong First Class and others can't complete their operational tasks within this time, then we ......"
As a commander of the army, Zhang Huaishen is well versed in the art of war, and some situations must be considered clearly.
Li Ye waved his hand, signaling Zhang Huaishen not to say much, "I believe in Zhang Chang'an and have confidence in his trip." However, if things really don't go as expected, it's just a positive

It's just a battle. My Tang Dynasty King attacked the city and plundered the land, swept the heaven and earth, how could he have been afraid of facing the enemy in a dignified manner?"
"Yes, I see. ”
At this time, in the Mobei grassland, 100,000 wolf tooth troops were gathering.
Shangguan Allure immediately rushed to the grassy slope, looking at the torrent of iron armor, converging from everywhere to the flat ground in front of the grassy slope, with a cold face and sharp eyes.
As the first army in the Tang Chang'an Forbidden Army, which is composed entirely of Qi cultivators, it is naturally needless to say what the current combat strength of the Wolf Tooth Army is.
Not to mention the way of the soldiers' battle formations, how exquisitely they cooperated, all the armor on the soldiers' bodies, the blades in their hands, and the elixirs on their waists, just take out one and put it on the rivers and lakes, all of which made the Qi cultivators jealous.
From this point of view, it is appropriate to say that the Wolf Tooth Army is a huge treasure trove that moves.
There is more than one such treasure trove of military movement in Datang now, and there are two in the Chang'an Forbidden Army.
Together, they constitute the most elite core combat force of the Tang Army, and they will inevitably appear in the most critical position and the most difficult battlefield in this war of the Western Expedition.
"The last general, Chu Zheng, has seen General Shangguan!" Chu Zheng rode his horse to Shangguan Chengcheng, dismounted and saluted, his troops were the last to arrive.
Shangguan Chengcheng glanced at the elite cavalry that was ready to go, and gave the order for the whole army to be pulled.
The Wolf Tooth Army is all cavalry, and will rush directly from the grassland to the Western Regions, and will not take Hexi, which is also the route of the Xiongnu and Turks to move west. With Datang's current efforts to build and control the grassland, there will be grassland states along the way to prepare grain supplies for them, so their speed will be very fast.
"That beauty of Zhang Changan didn't cry and wanted to go with you?" When riding down the grassy slope, Shangguan Chengcheng rarely talked to Chu Zheng about these miscellaneous things. The beauty in her mouth is naturally Gesang.
It's no wonder that she's curious, Zhang Chang'an refused to be a shepherdess's family for a shepherdess, and stayed in the grassland for several years.
"The eldest husband fights for the country and makes contributions, and his wife and concubine only need to guard the house, how can there be so many things?"
Chu Zheng was righteous, and as soon as he said this, he saw Shangguan Chengcheng's eyes sink, obviously disbelieving, so he had to say: "Of course you have to follow you alive or dead, but this is impossible." When Zhang Changan was leaving, he said that he wanted her to stay in the grassland and wait for him to come back, how could I, as a brother, let her go to the Western Regions, it would be too bad. ”
Shangguan Allure's face looked better. She seemed to be very interested in the topic, and asked some unknown details, and after receiving a satisfactory answer, she quickly moved forward with a smile on her face.
"General Shangguan has been a little strange lately. She wasn't interested in anything except the battlefield before, and she wouldn't ask anything, so how could she care about this kind of thing now?" Chu Zheng disturbed his head.
Lingnan, Guangzhou Bay.
Yang Xingmi stood at the bow of the cruiser Jiazi, his eyebrows were cold, and he pressed his knife to look into the distance, scanning the towering sailors under his command.
No, the Lingnan Water Master can no longer be called a Water Master, but should be called a Sea Master.
After the ocean route connecting the Americas was opened, the Lingnan Navy Division was only divided into a part to escort the cargo ships to carry out cargo tasks, and the main force returned to Lingnan. And Yang Xingmi, on Li Ye's order, also handed over the errand of the Zhendong Metropolitan Protectorate, which was supposed to be a temporary consideration, and returned to Lingnan to train the fleet.
With the experience of going out to conquer the Japanese kingdom, and after two years of accumulation, especially the various new warships built by the Haihe Yamen, which have been launched in a steady stream, the expeditionary fleet of the Lingnan Naval Division in the true sense has finally been built and trained.
And today, it's time for the expeditionary fleet to set sail west!
