Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty

Vol 2 Chapter 2170: Give me some advice!

"Zhao Song, immediately draw up an edict: Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, Xiao Yu, Yu Shinan, and Liu Zhenghui are the censors to patrol the north. Early tomorrow morning, the troops will be divided into five groups, each with 500 forbidden troops, to inspect the ten northern states and verify the roster. Once it is verified whether the person is a Turkic spy, there is no need to report it, he will be executed on the spot, his family members will be demoted to slave status, and they will be sent to Lingnan!

Baiqisi must cooperate with various supervisory censors throughout the process, secretly guard the left and right, and provide intelligence. Officials from the Ministry of Punishment, Yushitai, and Dali Temple assisted in the investigation and trial. I want you to eliminate all Turkic spies and spies in the northern territory of the Tang Dynasty within one month. Anyone who dares to shield the suspects and obstruct the investigation of the case will be killed without mercy! "

In the Manlu Hall, Li Er pondered for a moment, then looked at Zhao Song and said in a deep voice.

It can be seen that Lao Li is really angry this time and will not stop until he kills everyone. It is foreseeable that within the next month, there will definitely be a violent earthquake in the officialdom of northern states and counties, and many people will lose their lives.

In addition, the ministers sent out by Li Er are also very particular. They are all clean people in the court. Such people are generally difficult to bribe, and naturally they will not protect those treasonous spies!

"Old slave obeys the order!"

Zhao Song quickly bowed.

"The last general has given orders!"

"Old minister accepts the order!"

Li Junxian and Fang Xuanling also bowed to accept the order.

"Auxiliary machine, once the spies in the northern states and counties are eliminated, there will inevitably be many vacancies in the yamen of the states. The officials should be prepared. Once there are vacancies in the yamen of the northern states, they will immediately send virtuous officials to fill them. The national war is coming, and the northern states and counties will decide No chaos!”

At this time, Li Er looked at Changsun Wuji again and ordered.

In the list of names that Zhao Deyan confessed, most of them are officials from various states and counties, and many of them hold real power. Once these people are found to have colluded with the Turks, they will definitely not escape death. After they step down, there must be new ones. Officials should take over, otherwise the officialdom in the north will be in chaos over time!

"My lord, I obey the order!"

Changsun Wuji accepted the order with his hands.

"Next, let's talk about things on the grassland..."

Li Er paused, looked at everyone in the hall and said.

The atmosphere in the hall was solemn again, and Li Zexuan also felt a sinking heart, because judging from the second Yunzhou Eight Hundred Miles Express letter that Li Er gave him (the first secret letter was the good news that Tu Li's tribe had surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, naturally Nothing to say), the situation on the grassland is not optimistic, and even beyond everyone's expectations, including Li Zexuan himself!

Li Zexuan looked serious and couldn't help but recall what he had just read in the second secret letter:

"...Yesterday, ten Tiele tribes conspired to rebel against Jieli and wanted to withdraw the troops who surrounded Tuli's troops. They gathered in the north and south to watch and help each other and jointly resist Jieli.

Yesterday evening, the Tongluo tribe, Pugu tribe, Bayegu tribe, and Guli cadres gathered their subordinates at Yanmo Mountain to join the Xue Yantuo tribe, and the Huihe tribe, Sijie tribe, Dubo tribe, and Xijie tribe met at Tanhan Mountain Join the Qibi tribe. Ten troops totaling more than 600,000!

Last night, the Xue Yantuo tribe and the Qibi tribe held a grand welcome banquet for the alliance. Unexpectedly, assassins appeared in the banquet, targeting the leaders of the ten Tiele tribes...

Due to the chaos due to the large number of people, and most of these assassins were close associates of the leaders of various tribes, they suddenly attacked. The leaders of the Tongluo tribe, the Pugu tribe, the Dubo tribe, and the Xijie tribe were stabbed to death on the spot. The leaders of the Tuyegu tribe and the Guli cadres suffered serious injuries. Seriously injured, the remaining four leaders were slightly injured, and the ten coalition forces were in chaos...

At that time, Jieli dispatched two armies to take advantage of the chaos to launch an attack. Tiele's ten coalition forces rushed to fight and suffered heavy casualties. Fortunately, Duke Dingyuan sent two groups of light cavalry deep into the grassland in advance and burned two tribes that were attached to Jieli. Jieli was afraid and had to withdraw his troops to defend.

Early this morning, Cao Guogong led the army to the border of Yunzhou. According to the plan, Chen Bing practiced day and night at the border. Jieli had some scruples, so he did not gather all his troops to pursue the victory. However, the morale of Tiele's ten troops was severely damaged after the battle last night. If things go on like this, , will definitely be defeated by Jie Li...

Now that the situation in the grassland has changed drastically, I implore Your Majesty to make an early decision! "

The prophecy of frost in midsummer came true. Tang Jian went deep into the grassland alone to successfully carry out the plan of differentiation. He brought Tuli's troops back to the Tang Dynasty and caused chaos in the grassland. In particular, it indirectly contributed to the formation of a coalition of Tiele's ten tribes to resist Jieli. This is undoubtedly great news for Datang.

But whether it was Li Er or Li Zexuan, the proposer of the differentiation plan, no one expected that Jieli would be so decisive and directly send assassins to assassinate the leaders of the ten Tiele tribes who were about to rebel!

This not only requires strong courage, but also... foundation!

That’s right, it’s the foundation!

According to the intelligence, many of the assassins at last night's banquet were close associates of the leaders of the Ten Tribes of Tiele. Needless to say, the reason why these people suddenly betrayed them must be the secret agents that Jieli had planted in the Ten Tribes of Tiele. If it weren't for this, even if Jieli sent ten times the number of assassins, he might not be able to achieve the same results as last night!

Fortunately, Zhang Gongjin happened to send two light cavalry deep into the grassland to harass the tribes near Jieli's court last night, which made Jieli afraid and had to return to defense. Otherwise, the casualties of Tiele's ten troops last night would have been even greater!

"The leaders of the Ten Tribes of Tiele had just decided to join forces to resist Jieli, and they were immediately assassinated. It can be seen that Jieli had been wary of the Ten Tribes of Tiele for a long time, and had placed many spies in each tribe in advance!"

Li Jing frowned and took the lead to analyze in a deep voice: "The alliance of the ten tribes of Tiele was forced by the situation. Now that the leaders of the ten tribes are dead and injured, I am afraid that there will be discord among the ten tribes~www. readwn.com~ Jieli's strength is already stronger than Tiele's ten troops, so the defeat of the ten coalition forces is a foregone conclusion. It's just a matter of time. The veteran speculates that the ten coalition forces may not last three months!"

"Three months!"

After hearing this, everyone in the hall, including Li Er, felt their hearts sink.

Li Jing was the military **** of the Tang Dynasty and the Minister of War. Although he had gradually faded out of the court in the past two years, no one dared to really ignore him. What's more, in terms of understanding the strength of the tribes on the grassland, almost no one can match Li Jing. Therefore, Li Jing's "three months" judgment just now cannot be ignored by everyone!

"Three months... Although the imperial court has begun to prepare for war, raising food and fodder, deploying and training armies from various states cannot be completed in a short time. If Jie Li really destroys Tiele's ten tribes within three months, then he will With the power of such a great victory, the morale will be as high as a rainbow, the fighting power will be even more terrifying, and the chances of the imperial court's victory will probably be even smaller!"

Fang Xuanling frowned and said worriedly.

Changsun Wuji's eyes flashed and he said in a deep voice: "Although Tiele's ten-unit coalition army had a bad start, its troops numbered hundreds of thousands after all. It would not be easy for Jieli to capture them in a short time!

What's more, Hongshen's raid last night also provided us with an idea, that is, in the next few months, the border can send light cavalry deep into the grassland to continue raids, distracting Jieli and not daring to go all out to encircle and suppress the Tiele Shibu. !

In this way, I believe that the ten coalition forces will be able to sustain it until the day when the imperial court sends its troops north! "

(Zhang Gongjin, courtesy name Hongshen)

Li Jing nodded at this time and said: "What Zhao Guogong said is not unreasonable. Since the imperial court regained Shuofang before, I believe Jieli can also see that the Tang Dynasty will go to war with the Turks. In the next few months, Jieli will definitely Use the fastest speed to calm down the grassland situation and respond to Datang's attack.
