Chapter 337 Millions of Aliens Attack
Hearing that the Western Turks were invading, Li Shimin immediately mobilized his troops. However, just after the Li Zhi Rebellion, the Central Army of the Tang Dynasty had only 80,000 troops.
Although there were only 80,000 people, these Tang troops had been baptized in the counter-insurgency war and could be regarded as elite divisions. Li Shimin immediately decided to send the main force of the Central Army to reinforce the western front, and at the same time mobilize Xue Rengui's troops in Yingzhou and Zhao Di in the northeast. Zhao Wang Li Fu's troops came to Beijing for reinforcements.
At this moment, another news came that the Xi tribe and the Khitan tribe in the northeast suddenly joined forces to rebel, with an army of 300,000. Xue Rengui's troops fought hard with them, and the situation was critical.
One wave after another broke out. The 100,000 Uighurs in the north, led by their leader Tumidu, suddenly went south to kowtow to the border. King Zhao's army was also tightly entangled.
As a result, the armies of King Zhao and Xue Rengui were unable to reinforce the Western Front.
There is a conspiracy!
There is definitely a conspiracy!
Why did the Western Turks, the Xi people, and the Khitans rise to power at the same time?
There must be someone in the middle to connect with you!
Who is plotting this secretly?
No matter who is planning the layout, it no longer matters. How can this big loophole on the Western Front be plugged?
It seems that this time the Western Front can only rely on the Central Army's only 80,000 troops.
Just when the ministers were looking at each other, an even more exciting news came.
Tubo raised an army of 600,000 and joined forces with the Western Turks to attack Qinzhou!
The hall suddenly fell silent. Just now, the ministers were discussing how to resist foreigners, but now, there was no sound.
The Turks have 400,000 soldiers, and the Tubo soldiers have 600,000. The total is a million-strong army. If we add the 300,000 troops of the Xi and Khitans, and the Uighur army, then there will be a full 1.4 million foreign army. Launched a full-scale attack on Datang.
The most serious crisis in the history of Datang has arrived!
This is an unprecedented crisis. Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, we have never encountered such a situation. More than a million foreign armies launched an attack on the Tang Dynasty at the same time. Even in the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, they must be able to stop this attack. Attack of millions of troops.
What's more, the Tang Dynasty has just experienced the Rebellion of Li Zhi, and its vitality has been severely damaged. The central army has not yet completed the reconstruction, and the governors from all over the country have supported their own troops. At this time, what ability do they have to repel the 1.4 million foreigners who are knocking on the side? Woolen cloth?
1.4 million foreign troops!
??If one is not handled well, it will be another Wu Huan Hua!
Everyone has thought of the tragic situation from the end of the Western Jin Dynasty to the Northern and Southern Dynasties. The rise of foreign ethnic groups and the chaos in China. The Han people were called two-legged sheep and became the food of the foreign ethnic groups. Will this tragic scene happen again?
Everyone¡¯s heart sank to the bottom.
This is the biggest crisis since the founding of the Tang Dynasty. Externally, more than a million foreign troops are pressing down on the country, but the Tang Dynasty has lost the most dangerous place to resist the aliens. It is foreseeable that the aliens will march straight into Chang'an.
However, within the Tang Dynasty, local officials held their own and stood back and watched. Obviously, these local officials did not want to tie themselves to the Tang Dynasty's chariot. They wanted to protect their own interests more than thinking about anything. The interests of the Tang Dynasty.
??For example, Ma Zhou in Yangzhou, Li Min in Shu, and Li Yuanjing in Jingzhou. They sat on the sidelines and watched the Li Zhi rebellion. This time, I am afraid it will be difficult to send troops to reinforce.
Can the 80,000 soldiers of the Central Army of the Tang Dynasty really stop the attacks of the Tibetans and Western Turks?
Eighty thousand people, even if the original defenders on the Western Front are included, are only a few hundred thousand. However, the Western Turks and Tibetans on the Western Front have a combined army of one million. Hundreds of thousands versus one million, the Tang Dynasty has no one at all. The odds!
Everyone's expressions changed. Li Shimin slowly stood up from the dragon chair, looked at His Highness's ministers, and said: "The Tang Dynasty is in danger, I should personally lead the troops to fight against foreign enemies!"
"Your Majesty, you can't! The millions of troops from Tubo and Western Turks are approaching fiercely. If your Majesty's personal expedition fails, the Tang Dynasty will be destroyed!"
Hundreds of officials fell to their knees one after another, and many people cried bitterly. The emperor personally led the expedition. This was a critical moment of life and death for the country. Only 80,000 people were fighting against a million troops. This was a dead end.
"Your Majesty, you can't go!"
"If I don't go, who can go?"
The officials looked at each other and just cried. Yes, in this situation, leading troops to fight against the Tibetan and Turkic armies was no different than committing suicide. At this time, who is willing to die?
?And as long as this battle fails, the Tang Dynasty will undoubtedly perish!
Who can shoulder such a heavy burden?
Who dares to pick?
"My son is willing to go!"
Li Zhen walked out of the crowd and stood in the center of the hall.
The building is about to collapse, who can hold up the sky with one hand?
The country is in danger, who can turn the tide?
In this country where life and death are at stake, Li Zhen steps forward to make up for the leakage on her own!
Li Shimin looked at his son and said, "Zhen'er, are you really willing to go to war for your father?"
Li Zhen thought to herself, I don¡¯t want to go at this time, but if I don¡¯t step forward at this time, who will?
Li Zhen looked at Li Shimin and said, "Father, you have not recovered from your serious illness. It is really not appropriate to go on an expedition at this time, so let your sons and ministers do it for you."
"Zhen'er, do you know how heavy the burden is on you?" Li Shimin asked.
"Father, someone has to shoulder the burden. Others can retreat, but as the prince, how can I retreat?"
After hearing what Li Zhen said, His Highness and all the officials were ashamed.
Li Shimin nodded and said to himself that a friend in need is a friend indeed. He gave birth to a good son. With him here, how could the Tang Dynasty just die?
¡°I am really old, but it is not impossible for my son to go out on his behalf.
Zhen'er is the new generation of war god in the Tang Dynasty. He has military abilities that are beyond ordinary people. He may not be worse than himself!
Thinking of this, Li Shimin said: "Okay! Zhen'er, then I will hand over all the troops to you and appoint you as the Grand Marshal of the Army to go out!"
"Thank you, Father, the military situation is urgent, and I will set out for battle tomorrow!"
At that moment, Li Zhen took over the command, but he did not take away all the soldiers and horses near Chang'an City. Li Zhen wanted to prevent the Tibetan and Western Turks from sending elite troops to raid Chang'an. Chang'an still needed someone to stay behind, so Li Zhen prepared Only 50,000 troops were taken away, and the rest stayed in Chang'an.
Li Zhen knew that it was impossible to defeat the coalition of Western Turks and Tibetans head-on with this small force.
Therefore, the only way to win is by surprise. To this end, Li Zhen formulated a plan.
The Tibetan army and the Western Turkic army have millions of troops. They will definitely lose in a head-on confrontation. However, these millions of troops are attacking from the west. The battle and supply lines are very long. If you cut off their food routes, these millions of troops will definitely not fight. Defeat yourself and turn defeat into victory!
