lazy tang

Chapter 495
After Li Er ascended the throne, the first crusade began.Being an emperor is actually very similar to starting a company in theory, but you must pay attention to a good start.In the first battle, Li Er was the best of the best.

The army was divided into three groups, the commander of the middle army was veteran Qu Tutong, and the deputy general was Li Ji who had just returned from the northwest.

The commander of the army on the left is Qin Qiong, and the lieutenants are Cheng Zhijie and Niu Jinda.

Li Jing, the commander of the army on the right, and Hou Junji, who made great contributions in the Xuanwumen Incident and was promoted by Li Er, were the deputy generals.

The three-way army was in the shape of a character, with Heluo as backup, and attacked the rebels in Hebei.Luo Yi also gathered his subordinates and actively contacted the Koreans and Turkic people, trying to keep his territory.The battle broke out between the two sides near Zhuozhou, and the Youzhou Iron Cavalry really lived up to its reputation.The two sides won each other's battles. After the Koreans and Turks joined, the two sides formed a confrontation in Zhuozhou.

Li Er had no choice but to send additional reinforcements. Even in order to deal with the Youzhou iron cavalry, even the Xuanjia Army, who was guarding the house, left Tongguan under the leadership of Duan Zhixuan.Li Er's purpose is obvious, he must get rid of Luo Yi who is in his early years.If Luo Yi can't win, then Feng An in Lingnan, Li Zitong in Wudi, Lin Shihong in Chudi, and other small separatist forces will all be ready to move.

When the world is in chaos and there are wars everywhere.Even if Li Er has eight arms, it is impossible to wipe out these resistance forces one by one in a short time.What's more, there are Turks and Koreas who are eyeing outside.The Qiang people in the northwest have also been very dishonest recently. The Tubo people plundered Liangzhou again this spring.The Tang Empire will be at war everywhere, and the remnants of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji inside will spread rumors that Li Erde's position is not right.At that time, Li Er's Tang Empire will be in jeopardy.

"My lord! The caravan from Hebei can't go to Liaodong, and even the contact with those Khitan people has been cut off. There is no way, the ground in Hebei is too chaotic. Soldiers from Youzhou, Turkic people, Korean people, and those strange people People from all over the country are making trouble in Hebei. The soldiers of the imperial court fought against them, and it seems that they didn't take advantage of it. The person you were looking for was not found." Liu Da stood in front of Yunhao, with a guilty expression on his face.

It's no wonder he's so chaotic on the ground in Hebei.It is not easy to go across Hebei to Liaodong, let alone find a woman in the vast land of Liaodong.Yunhao didn't even know if He Lan could survive the battle at Yiwulu Mountain.

"Forget it, there will always be opportunities in the future." The years of war have many helplessness, and being separated from relatives is the greatest sorrow.Maybe two people are shooting stars in the sky, and the trajectories of life can only overlap for a short time, and then they will gradually drift away, and it is even impossible to meet again in a lifetime.No matter where He Lan is, Yun Hao always remembers it in his heart.

Maybe one day, He Lan will bring her people to Chang'an, who knows for sure?
Not knowing the whereabouts of He Lan, Yun Hao felt a little depressed.After all, the woman who has had skin-to-skin contact with him, although the Khitan people don't seem to care much about such things.But Yunhao knew that He Lan was sincere to him.You can leave the hope of life to Yun Hao and face death by yourself, how dare you say that you are not sincere?
The depressed Yun Hao suddenly welcomed Chai Shao, Li Er's special envoy, perhaps Li Er was also worried that Yun Hao would disappear when other people came.

"Mr. Qiao, why are you here?" Yun Hao was a little puzzled, what happened to Li Er to treat someone of Chai Shao's level as an errand messenger.

"The big thing is bad, the Turks are here. Your Majesty ordered you to enter the palace quickly!" Chai Shao roared anxiously.

"Turkic...?" Before Yunhao could figure it out, he was dragged out of the door by Chai Shaolian.

On the carriage, Yunhao finally understood what had happened. It turned out that everything was an illusion.Luo Yi's rebellion in Hebei was completely a trick of Xieli.After he knew that Li Er had usurped the throne, he immediately started a grand chess game.

Taking advantage of Luo Yi's special status in Hebei, he launched a rebellion that Li Er had to suppress.With the help of Luo Yi, the Koreans, and the forces of various ethnic minorities in Liaodong, they dragged the imperial army to Hebei.Taking advantage of the emptiness of Chang'an, he brazenly launched an attack on Chang'an.

Outside the city of Jingzhou, Yunhao's father-in-law, Dugu Yanyun, led an army to fight with Turkic people several times his own.As a result, the entire army of more than [-] cavalry was wiped out, and Dugu Yanyun was cut by the sword suddenly by Ashina.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 striker will be able to reach the outskirts of Chang'an in five days.The capital of the Tang Empire is facing a huge crisis.

"How did things get so bad?" Hearing that Dugu Yanyun was beheaded.Yunhao's heart seemed to be hit by a heavy hammer, and that little old man who loved to laugh appeared in his head.Yun Hao couldn't even accept the fact that he was dead.

"You will know when you enter the city!"

After entering Chang'an City, Yun Hao realized the seriousness of the matter.The streets are full of fleeing people, and the Jinwu Guard is doing its best to maintain order.But those nobles didn't listen to the Jinwu Guard's command at all, and they were the culprits that caused the congestion.It took Yunhao and Chai Shao's carriage to squeeze out of the crowd.

"Have you seen everything on the street?" Inside the Wude Hall, Li Er's voice was still loud.I really don't know where his self-confidence comes from. The Turkic people are almost hitting the door, and he can still be so calm.

"I see, why didn't you seal the city?" Yun Hao asked a little strangely.

"Forget it, the catastrophe is imminent, and fly separately. This time is a catastrophe, and it is also a time to check people's hearts. What I want is a courtier who is loyal to the Tang Dynasty and can live and die with me. Not a villain who changes the rudder according to the wind, This time is the best time to see people's hearts. Wuji has already gone to investigate, who has run away. After I get through this difficulty, the court will carry out a cleansing." Li Er said calmly, Yun Hao's heart It's a fall.That's good, it proves that Li Er still has the ability to solve the current predicament.

"How many troops does Chang'an have?" Yun Hao really wanted to know where Li Er's support was.

"The Jinwu Guard has more than 3 people. As you know, Master Sheng Yan's Zuo Wuwei has 3000 people under his command. The rest is Jingde's Right Weiwei, with a little over 5000 people. There are more than 5000 people. Now that the soldiers of Quanchang'an are gathered together, it is estimated that there will be more than 6." Li Er counted with his fingers, and this number almost made Yun Hao faint.

There are only more than 6 people defending the huge Chang'an City.You know, the city wall of Chang'an is twenty miles long on one side. More than 6 people sound like a lot, but it is only enough to sprinkle a layer of pepper on the city wall.This is not counting the mobile forces necessary to defend the city.Yun Hao really wanted to know where Li Er got his confidence.

"Do you think you can hold it?" There are only Li Er and Chai Shao Yunhao in the Hall of Wude. Li Er looked at the sand table on the ground and turned around to ask Yunhao.

"Your Majesty is the incomparable commander himself, so why ask me. My minister suggested that the Tongguan garrison should be dispatched immediately to rescue Chang'an. In Longyou, some troops should also be dispatched." Yun Hao was the most impatient. Can Chang'an City Hold on to say otherwise.Lintong will definitely suffer disaster, there is no tall city wall there.There was not enough troops to defend, and the academy was built at the foot of the mountain.Even a dog can jump over the fence!

I blame myself for always thinking that nothing will happen in Guanzhong.Chang'an City is very safe, and the most capable troops in the Tang Dynasty are all in Chang'an City.But who would have thought that the Turkic people who have always relied only on barbarism will now use tricks.Yun Hao couldn't help but think of a famous saying, they don't understand military affairs, but they are 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.

"I can't get it back. There are only more than [-] defenders in Tongguan, and it's useless to come. As for Longyou...! Dugu Yanyun died in the battle, and the Qiang people came to make trouble again. Youliang rebelled, and there is an old opponent He’s back again. Xue Rengao, you still remember, Xue Ju’s son.” Li Er said to Yun Hao with a wry smile.

"Xue Rengao!" There was a big exclamation mark in Yunhao's heart, thinking that this guy was already dead.But he didn't expect that he was still alive and dared to come to Datang to make trouble.It seemed that this time, he was really going to go out again.Zhang Miaoke's father died at the hands of Xue's father and son, and Zhang Miaoke's elder brother also died at their hands.If it was said that Yunhao went to war on weekdays, Zhang Miaoke would send him off with tears in his eyes.This time, he must have waved his fists to cheer Yun Hao up, telling Yun Hao to kill all those damned guys.

"That's right! Longyou still needs reinforcements, so it's simply unrealistic for them to send troops." Li Er shook his head helplessly and sighed deeply.

"But with the current strength, it is impossible to defend the city of Chang'an. What's more, even if Chang'an is defended, the places around Chang'an will definitely be poisoned by the Turks. Not to mention other places, Lintong has no defense capability. Gunpowder workers Workshops, steel factories, ordnance factories, fire oil refineries, etc. will all be captured 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, the factory will be destroyed if it is destroyed, and we will rebuild it when the time comes. "Yun Hao said eagerly.

"Yeah! Not only you Lintong, but also Lantian, Xinfeng, Yanliang, Zhouzhi...! It's not just Chang'an, even if the Turks don't attack Chang'an. They will divide their troops to poison the whole Guanzhong, and wait for them to burn and kill Guanzhong After one pass, Datang is really hurting. As for Chang'an, it doesn't matter whether they break through or not." Li Er's hand moved across the vast land of Guanzhong, as if he could see the flames of war, blades and blood shadows everywhere. .

"Guanzhong has been resting and recuperating for the past ten years, and I just took a breath. No chaos, no chaos!" Li Er looked at the sand table and muttered to himself.

"Your Majesty! Make up your mind!" Chai Shao said suddenly from the side.

Yunhao looked at Chai Shao puzzled, not knowing what he meant by making up his mind.

PS: The third update is rewarded!It's been a long time since I've coded like this, and my back hurts a lot.I wanted to change it four times, but I couldn't do it after all.The old dragon is really old!Why……!
I wish you all a happy Lantern Festival!
