After Li Er ascended the throne, the first conquest began. Being an emperor is actually very similar to starting a company in theory, but you still have to pay attention to getting off to a good start. In the first battle, Li Er was an elite performer.
The army was divided into three groups. The commander of the middle group was veteran general Qu Tutong, and his deputy was Li Ji, who had just been transferred back from the northwest.
The commander of the army on the left is Qin Qiong, and the deputy generals are Cheng Zhijie and Niu Jinda.
Li Jing is the commander-in-chief of the army on the right, and his deputy is Hou Junji, who played a great role in the Xuanwu Gate Incident and was promoted by Li Er.
The three armies formed a formation, with Heluo as the back-up, and attacked the Hebei rebels. Luo Yi also gathered his subordinates and actively contacted the Koreans and Turks in order to protect his territory. A battle broke out between the two sides near Zhuozhou, and the Youzhou Cavalry truly lived up to its reputation. The two sides fought with each other winning or losing. After the Koryos and Turks joined, the two sides formed a confrontation in Zhuozhou.
Li Er had to send additional reinforcements. In order to deal with the Youzhou cavalry, even the Xuanjia Army, who was looking after the family, left Tongguan under the leadership of Duan Zhixuan. Li Er's purpose is obvious, he must get rid of Luo Yi who takes the lead. If Luo Yi cannot win, then Feng An of Lingnan, Li Zitong of Wu, Lin Shihong of Chu, and other small separatist forces will all be ready to take action.
Wait until the world is in chaos and there is war everywhere. Even if Li Er had eight arms, he would not be able to extinguish these resistance forces one by one in a short period of time. What's more, there are Turks and Koryos who are eyeing us outside. The Qiang people in the northwest have also been very dishonest recently, and the Tubo people looted Liangzhou again this spring. The Tang Empire will be at war everywhere, and the remnants of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji will spread rumors that Li Er's throne was unfair. At that time, Li Er's Tang Empire would be in danger.
"Sir! The caravan from Hebei cannot go to Liaodong, and even the contact with the Khitans has been cut off. There is no way, the ground in Hebei is too chaotic. There are soldiers from Youzhou, Turks, Koreans, and those weird People are making trouble in Hebei. The soldiers of the imperial court fought with them, but they didn't seem to get any advantage. The person you are looking for cannot be found." Liu Da stood in front of Yunhao with a guilty look on his face.
It¡¯s no wonder he behaved like this in the chaos on the ground in Hebei. It is not easy to cross Hebei to Liaodong, let alone find a woman in the vast land of Liaodong. Yunhao didn't even know whether Helan could survive the battle at Yiwu Lu Mountain.
"Forget it, there will always be opportunities in the future." There was a lot of helplessness in the war-torn years, and being separated from loved ones was the greatest sorrow. Maybe two people are like meteors in the sky, and their life trajectories can only overlap for a short time, and then they will drift apart, and may even never meet again in their lifetime. No matter where Helan is, Yunhao will always remember it in his heart.
Maybe one day, Helan will bring her people to Chang'an. Who can say for sure?
Yunhao felt a little depressed after not getting the whereabouts of He Lan. After all, the Khitan people didn't seem to care much about this kind of thing. But Yunhao knew that Helan was sincere to him. You can leave the hope of life to Yun Hao and face death yourself. How dare you say that you are not sincere?
The depressed Yunhao suddenly welcomed Li Er's special envoy Chai Shao. Perhaps Li Er was also worried that Yunhao would miss others when they came.
"Why are you here, Mr. Qiao?" Yunhao was a little confused, what happened to make Li Er use someone of Chai Shao's level as an errand boy.
"Something bad has happened, the Turks are coming. Your Majesty orders you to enter the palace quickly!" Chai Shao said anxiously.
"Turks?" Before Yunhao could figure it out, he was dragged out of the door by Chai Shaolian.
On the carriage, Yunhao finally understood what happened. It turned out that everything was an illusion. Luo Yi's rebellion in Hebei was completely a treacherous plot by Jie Li. After he learned that Li Er had usurped the throne, he immediately started a grand chess game.
Taking advantage of the special status of Luo Yi from Hebei Province, he launched a rebellion that Li Er had to annihilate. He also used Luo Yi, the Korean people, and the forces of various ethnic minorities in Liaodong to drag the imperial army into Hebei. Taking advantage of the emptiness of Chang'an, they brazenly launched an attack on Chang'an.
Outside Jingzhou City, Yun Hao's father-in-law Dugu Yanyun led his army to fight with Turks who were several times his own. As a result, the entire army of more than 5,000 cavalry was destroyed, and Dugu Yanyun was killed by Ashina's sudden formation. The northwest gate of Chang'an City suddenly opened, and a hundred thousand fierce Turkic cavalry were rushing to Chang'an day and night. It is estimated that the forward will be able to reach the outskirts of Chang'an in five days. The capital of the Tang Empire is facing a huge danger.
"How did things get so bad?" Hearing that Dugu Yanyun was beheaded. Yunhao's heart seemed to be hit with a heavy hammer, and the smiling old man appeared in his mind. Yunhao couldn't even accept the fact that he was dead.
"When you enter the city, you will knowGot it! "
After entering Chang'an City, Yunhao realized the seriousness of the matter. The streets are full of people fleeing, and the Jinwu Guards are doing their best to maintain order. But those nobles didn't listen to Jin Wuwei's command at all, and they were the culprits causing the congestion. The carriages of Yun Hao and Chai Shao had to squeeze out of the crowd after the boss had exhausted his strength.
"Have you seen everything on the street?" In Wude Hall, Li Er's voice was still loud. I really don¡¯t know where he got his confidence. The Turks were almost attacking him at the door, yet he could still be so calm.
¡°I saw it, why didn¡¯t we close the city?¡± Yunhao asked a little strangely.
"Forget it, let's fly away when the disaster comes. This time is a disaster, but it is also a time to test people's hearts. What I want is a minister who is loyal to the Tang Dynasty and can live and die with me. Not a villain who can act according to the wind. At this time, you can best see people's hearts. Wuji has already gone to find out who has escaped from the battle. After I get through this difficulty, the court will conduct a cleansing." Li Er said calmly, Yun Hao's heart It finally landed. This is good, proving that Li Er is still capable of solving the current dilemma.
"How many troops are there in Chang'an?" Yun Hao wanted to know where Li Er could rely on.
"There are more than 30,000 Jinwu guards. As you know, Master Sheng Yan's left guard has 13,000 people. The rest is Jingde's right guard, which has a little more than 15,000 people. Imperial Palace Guards , and there are more than 5,000 people. Now that the soldiers from all over Chang'an have gathered together, it is estimated that there will be a little more than 60,000." Li Er counted on his fingers, this number almost made Yun Hao faint.
The huge city of Chang'an was defended by only more than 60,000 people. You know, one side of Chang'an's city wall is twenty miles long. More than 60,000 people sounded like a lot, but it was only enough to sprinkle a layer of pepper on the city wall. This does not include the mobile forces necessary to defend the city. Yunhao wanted to know where Li Er got his confidence.
"Do you think you can hold it?" There were only Li Er and Chai Shao Yunhao in the Wude Hall. Li Er looked at the sand table on the ground and turned around to ask Yunhao.
"Your Majesty himself is the unparalleled commander in chief, so there is no need to ask the minister. The minister suggested that the Tongguan garrison be immediately dispatched to rescue Chang'an. In Longyou, some troops must also be mobilized." Yunhao was the most impatient. Can the city of Chang'an be rescued? Keep saying otherwise. Lintong will definitely suffer disaster because there is no tall city wall there. There were not enough troops to defend, so the academy was built at the foot of the mountain. Even a dog can jump over the fence!
It¡¯s all my fault, I always thought nothing would happen in Guanzhong. Chang'an City is very safe, and the most capable troops in the Tang Dynasty are in Chang'an City. But who would have thought that the Turks, who had always relied on barbarism, would now also be able to make plans. Yunhao couldn't help but think of a famous saying, they don't understand military affairs, but they are very tough, they don't understand tactics, but they are very cunning.
What Chang'an City will face is this group of guys who are more ferocious than wolves and more cunning than foxes.
"We can't come back. There are only more than 10,000 Tongguan defenders, so it's useless to come. As for Longyou! Duguyanyun died in the battle, and the Qiang came to cause trouble again. Youliang rebelled, and there was an old rival. Back again. Do you remember Xue Rengao, Xue Ju's son?" Li Er said to Yun Hao with a wry smile.
"Xue Rengao!" Yun Hao felt a big exclamation mark in his heart, thinking that this guy had died long ago. But he didn't expect that he would dare to come to Datang to cause trouble while he was still alive. It seems that this time, he is really going to fight again. Zhang Miaoke's father died in the hands of the Xue family and his son, and Zhang Miaoke's eldest brother also died in their hands. If Yun Hao were to go on an expedition on a normal day, Zhang Miaoke would send him off with tears in his eyes. This time, I must wave my fist to encourage Yunhao and tell Yunhao to kill all those damn guys.
"Yes! Longyou still needs reinforcements, and it is simply unrealistic for them to send troops." Li Er shook his head helplessly and sighed deeply.
"But with the current military strength, it is impossible to defend Chang'an City. What's more, even if Chang'an is defended, the areas around Chang'an will definitely be poisoned by the Turks. Not to mention other places, Lintong has no defense capabilities. Gunpowder workers Workshops, steel mills, ordnance factories, kerosene refineries, etc. will all be invaded by the Turks.
No, I have to go back quickly. Go back and evacuate all the workers. As long as the workers are still there, if the factory is destroyed, it will be destroyed. We will build it again when the time comes. Yunhao said eagerly.
"Yes! Not only you Lintong, but also Lantian, Xinfeng, Yanliang, Zhouzhi! Not just Chang'an, even if the Turks don't attack Chang'an. They will divide their troops to poison the entire Guanzhong, and wait until they burn Guanzhong to death. After that, the Tang Dynasty was really seriously injured. As for Chang'an, it doesn't matter whether they conquer it or not." Li Er's hand traced across the vast land of Guanzhong, as if he could see the bloody shadows of beacon blades everywhere. .
"Guanzhong has been recuperating and recuperating for the past ten years, and it just took a breather. There can be no chaos, no chaos!" Li Er looked at the sand table and murmured to himself.
"Your Majesty! Make up your mind!" Chai Shao suddenly said from the side.
Yunhao looked at Chai Shao in confusion, wondering what he meant by making up his mind.
