retaliate

Chapter 586

The rest of Tanzhou's army has been assembled, ready to attack, and the army will attack as soon as the news comes.

"Chenzhou has two places that must be won, one of which is Lin'an, which is the core of Chenzhou.

Take Lin'an, and Chenzhou will become a headless snake.

Second, Taiping, Yang Xuan has been running Taiping for many years, there are countless supplies in the city, and there are many workshops and craftsmen.Winning Taiping will be of great benefit to Tanzhou! "

Staff Kanazawa pointed to the map and calmly analyzed the situation.

He Lianrong said, "I have said a lot, but it still depends on the situation on Xiao Manyan's side."

Jin Ze smiled, "The old man asserts that Yang Xuan will lose in this battle for two reasons.

One, Zhang Zhuo.Chen Zhou's army was fierce and attacked for several days, and the Tiger Control Department must have suffered heavy casualties.

After this battle, it will take several years for the Tiger Control Department to recover, but Yang Xuan will not give him several years, at most it will launch another attack next year.At that time, Zhang Zhuo was vulnerable.

Therefore, the old man thought that Zhang Zhuo would hold on to Chenzhou's army and wait for the reinforcements to arrive.

Second, Xiao Manyan's aggression is like fire, so he must rush to reinforce him all the way, and he will appear when Yang Xuan does not expect it.

With Zhang Zhuo holding back Chen Zhou's army, and Xiao Manyan attacking like fire, if Yang Xuan is undefeated, the old man..."

Knock knock knock!
Someone knocked on the door.

"Come in." He Lianrong relaxed his neck.

Door open.

No movement.

Ah!
Kanazawa looked up.

Then, he opened his mouth with a look of astonishment.

"What's the matter?"

He Lianrong turned around.

The embarrassed Xiao Manyan stood outside the door.

Kneel down.

"Emissary, defeated!"

……

The spring in Tao County was getting warmer, and Huang Chunhui was also out of the house, pacing slowly in the courtyard.

"The weather is comfortable!"

He looked up at the sky, "When a person is old, he will cherish every moment, but if he is not careful, he will become greedy...I wish I could see everything in this world. Greed in the heart is the beginning of trouble."

Liu Qing stood under the tree, leaning on the tree trunk, enjoying the spring very comfortably, "My husband is a very promising year, why bother to talk about being old? Besides, those old people are basking in the sun in a daze, but my husband is basking in the sun and thinking about the north. Major events in Xinjiang..."

"That's fear and despair." Huang Chunhui stretched out his hand to pull down the drooping branches, and gently sniffed the young leaves on the branches, "They are afraid of death and feel that the days are numbered, so they recall the past every day. Looking for youth in memories, looking for the taste of being alive...

In fact, think about it the other way around, isn't every day you live young? "

"What Xianggong said is very true." Liu Qing himself also had a deep understanding, "If you have something to do, this person will not feel old."

"That makes sense!"

After the gossip was over, Huang Chunhui asked, "Is there any news from Lin'an?"

Liu Qing shook his head, "Before departure, Zitai sent someone a message, but there was no further news. However, it's still early."

"Well! It's still early." Huang Chunhui said.

A small official came from the front yard, "Master, the Ministry of War has arrived."

"Too many things!"

Huang Chunhui finished his walk and returned to the lobby.

The one from the Ministry of War is a seventh-rank official.

A seventh-rank official is nothing in the Tang Dynasty, but when this seventh-rank official is crowned as a representative, he has the prestige of a senior official.

However, the prestige did not dare to speak to Huang Chunhui.

The official said very politely: "Your Majesty was ordered to come to Northern Xinjiang, and there are instructions on this trip..."

Huang Chunhui drooped his eyelids and remained motionless.

The official said: "There is news from the Jingtai that Beiliao has been mobilizing troops since last year, and has been concentrating on going south. Therefore, everyone in Beijiang should be cautious and not attack lightly."

This is fried rice!

The same words last time were directly pushed back by Huang Chunhui. Because of this, the relationship between Chang'an and Beijiang was almost at a standstill.

But the Ministry of War came again and mentioned this matter again, what is the meaning of this?
Liao Jin narrowed his eyes, "There's no reason to be self-confident!"

There is a hidden needle in this statement: If you don't understand Chang'an shit, don't point fingers at Beijiang.

But why does the Ministry of Military Affairs make such a fuss?

Who ordered this person?

Emperor, impossible!

The emperor was pushed over by Huang Chunhui last time, and taking the initiative to subdue will lead to a great loss of prestige.

Zhang Huan, Shangshu of the Ministry of War?

Zhang Huan is a soldier, so he would not say such stupid things.

Then, the origin of this person is debatable.

Liao Jin thought of two people, Yang Songcheng and Liang Jing.

After the emperor and Northern Xinjiang fell into a stalemate, someone once went to Shu, saying that there was a risk of rebellion in Northern Xinjiang.

This memorial was jointly criticized by the important ministers, and the momentum was not small.

This is clearly an attempt to gain the upper hand in public opinion.

But Chang'an and Beijiang must ease up, right?

Those two people were the ones who could take the initiative to do this for the emperor.

If Yang Songcheng wanted to push Yue Wang into the East Palace, if Northern Xinjiang strongly opposed it, this would be a hidden danger.

And Liang Jing, the emperor's favorite minister, was good at observing words and demeanor, knowing that the northern border was the emperor's heart disease, so he took action to ease the relationship.

The official said with a smile: "The battle in northern Xinjiang is related to the safety of the Tang Dynasty. If there is a mistake, who can take responsibility?"

These words are a bit rascal, Liao Jin said indifferently: "The war is fierce and dangerous, how can we lightly talk about the victory or defeat? We defend the country and guard the border, and we can only serve the country with all our strength."

The official attitude is very good, "Beiliao is powerful, it is always good to be cautious."

This attitude is very relaxed.

If the Northern Xinjiang side follows the easing attitude and the two sides blend in again, it may be that the relationship will be the same as this spring, and it will continue to warm up.

Liao Jin glanced at Huang Chunhui.

Huang Chunhui made up the matter, and only Huang Chunhui can decide.

Huang Chunhui gave a dry cough.

The officials were overjoyed.

"Master."

Zhang Du asked to see him.

"What's the matter?"

Huang Chunhui changed to a more comfortable sitting position.

At his age, he will not force himself for anything.If it's comfortable, then come like this.

Zhang Du looked joyful, "Master, the envoy from Lin'an is here."

"Oh! Let him in."

A team was coming in, and after saluting, they said, "Your Majesty ordered the villain to come and report to Mr. Xianggong. Half a month ago, our army stormed the Tiger Control Department..."

The messenger's face gradually became livid.

You just said to be cautious, and you attack the grassland, what a shame!

"The Tiger Control Department is struggling to support..."

Liao Jin nodded slightly, and said to Liu Qing in a low voice: "The Tiger Control Department is powerful."

Liu Qing nodded, "In the past, Zhang Zhuo once boasted that one side can be conquered only by the Tiger Control Department."

"On the fourth day, the envoy left the empty camp, lowered the flags and drums, and rushed to the place where the reinforcements in Tanzhou must pass..."

"Ok!"

Huang Chunhui, who was thinking about the battle, looked up, his eyes flickering, "Is he going to call for reinforcements?"

The team said: "Three thousand forwards of the reinforcements were spared, and Tanzhou general Xiao Manyan led [-] troops to arrive later, so that the king led the army to ambush, defeated the enemy in the first battle, beheaded more than [-], and captured more than [-]...Master, this time Great victory!"

I was just about to say to be cautious... The official's face flushed, "Let me go!"

He hurried out, and the attendants waiting outside asked, "How do you answer here?"

The official said angrily: "The old man just mentioned caution, and Lin'an will send people to report the victory."

"Reporting victory?" the attendant said, "I didn't hear the shout!"

Shout out for the victory, swaggering all the way through the market.

"It's a shame not to yell!" The official said through gritted teeth, "It's prudent not to yell, for fear of offending Chang'an. But think about it, a large tribe has been wiped out in Northern Xinjiang, but they dare not celebrate publicly... What will happen to outsiders if it spreads out? think?"

"Chang'an suppresses northern Xinjiang!"

"Damn! Damn!" The more the official thought about it, the more annoyed he became, "This trip of the old man is a self-inflicted humiliation!"

The entourage asked: "Which tribe was destroyed?"

"Tiger Control Department!"

"Tsk! Isn't that the most powerful of the three major books? It was destroyed? Who wrote it?"

"Yang Xuan!"

"This……"

"During the Southern Expedition, his command was determined, and this time he wiped out the Tiger Control Department, and even put gold powder on his title as a famous general. Damn! Also, Tanzhou sent more than [-] troops, and he set up an ambush to defeat them."

The entourage stopped, and said in disbelief: "This...he actually defeated the Tanzhou Northern Liao Army?"

Datang has been at a disadvantage against Beiliao in recent years, and the only outstanding record is the last battle led by Huang Chunhui to defeat Lin Ya.But after the war, the northern border army withdrew into the city again.

So some people say that the battle of the Northern Xinjiang Army was a fluke, otherwise why didn't they dare to attack again?
Now, they strike.

The more than ten thousand Northern Liao Army was a force that should not be underestimated anywhere, but it was wiped out by a Tang governor. The news spread to Chang'an, and it might cause a sensation.

"Back to Chang'an!"

The envoy went back, and in the lobby, the team was explaining the battle in detail.

"...The envoy said that the Tiger Control Department can be destroyed at any time, but the great enemy of the northern border is the Northern Liao after all. The Northern Liao iron cavalry is famous. Although my soldiers in the northern border are fearless, I am still a little nervous. Therefore, we should use Let's fight against the morale of Northern Liao and boost the prestige of Northern Xinjiang!"

"So, he's going all over this battle just for the Tanzhou Army?" Liu Qing asked.

"Yes!"

"Department of the Tiger Control, withered ears in the tomb! How brave!" Huang Chunhui said with a smile: "The old man is even more happy that he did not limit his expedition to Chenzhou. The mind of a general determines his future."

Only those with the world in mind can enter the temple.

Liao Jin said: "This battle was well laid out, with deep plans, fierce attacks, and twists and turns like lightning. It can be called a classic battle."

You really have grown up, little boy... Liu Qing caressed his beard and smiled, but he was a little bit embarrassed. The boy who was salivating at him begging for jerky was gone.

He got up and walked out of the lobby.

People who are blown by the spring breeze are a little drunk.

That young man has become an indomitable hero!

old man!

old!

……

Spring in northern Xinjiang is still chilly, but people in Chang'an put on thin shirts.

In the palace, the emperor and the imperial concubine had just completed a song together.

The imperial concubine is not resistant to heat, she wears thin clothes, and her skin is faintly visible, which is even more attractive.

Han Shitou came in with someone, "Your Majesty, the King of Yue sent someone to bring a gift."

The imperial concubine got up and left.

The emperor nodded.

As an emperor, the emperor has no shortage of rare treasures, but King Yue is very thoughtful in giving gifts. For example, the rhinoceros he gave last time made the emperor happy for a few days.

The gift list was delivered to the emperor.

"Dragon?"

The emperor looked up.

Presenting the gift, by the way, returning to Chang'an and discussing the situation with Yang Songcheng and others, Zhao Dongping saluted, "Your Majesty, the dragon is a thing from overseas. It is huge and fierce..."

"have a look!"

The emperor stood up, "Let the imperial concubine come too."

The dragon was locked in a cage, looking lazy.

"It's so fierce!" The imperial concubine approached the emperor, "It looks cold."

Zhao Dongping smiled, "So that I can teach the empress to know that this dragon is icy, usually curled up and motionless, just like a stone."

"Really?" The imperial concubine opened her small mouth in surprise.

The red lips and tongue made Zhao Dongping's heart skip a beat, and he lowered his eyes slightly without showing any trace.

"Yes."

"This thing is fierce?"

The emperor asked: "How about fighting with people?"

Zhao Dongping said: "If you are an ordinary person, you will die with one blow. If you are an ordinary expert, you can boast if you can escape."

"Oh!"

The emperor came to the spirit, "Who can fight with this thing?"

Zhao Dongping said with a smile: "Your Majesty ordered the villain to bring a good player from the southern border, this person can fight against the dragon, I just ask His Majesty to smile."

"Sanlang is filial." The emperor nodded.

A stocky alien entered the palace.

"I have seen Your Majesty!"

"Where?" Han Shitou asked on behalf of the emperor, while standing in front of the emperor's right without a trace.

This position can ensure that Han Shishi can stand in front of the emperor in time when encountering a surprise attack.

Zhao Dongping said: "This person is a foreign race in southern Xinjiang. He was bewitched by the rebels at first, but later he was defeated and captured. His words made him wake up, and he has been following the king ever since."

"have a look."

There is no shortage of such masters. As for safety, there are more than ten masters around Sha Jin.

"Open the cage!"

Zhao Dongping raised his hand.

The door frame of the cage was tied with a concocted vine, and the two attendants struggled to untie the vine.Sha Jin walked to the front, and a follower asked, "Are you all right?"

Sha Jin nodded coldly, "Open the door!"

The attendant jerked open the framed door.

Jilong raised his head, his protruding eyes fixed on Sha Jin.

Sha Jin rushed in, and the two followers hurriedly closed the frame door and sealed it with vines.

The wooden cage was very spacious, and the dragon flicked its tail violently.

Sha Jin dodged it, and the dragon's tail swept across the wooden pillar heavily.

Bah!
The whole wooden cage was trembling.

"very scary!"

A random strike by the dragon made the noble concubine's pretty face turn pale.

Zhao Dongping smiled, "Don't worry, ma'am, this wooden cage is made of iron wood, a special product in the south, as strong as fine iron!"

Before the words were finished, the dragon jumped suddenly, and Sha Jin flipped forward, but the dragon raised his head and opened his mouth, the sharp teeth were shining.

Sha Jin put one hand on the forehead of the dragon, and rolled behind it.

The dragon flicked its tail.

Bah!
The wooden pillar was split in half.

"alert!"

Han Shishi's complexion was livid.

More than ten masters came over and surrounded the cage.

"Stay away!" The emperor was in a good mood.

Zhao Dongping's back was wet with sweat, "Your Majesty, villain..."

The emperor waved his hand, and watched with great interest that Qilong opened his mouth to bite Sha Jin.

Sha Jin dodged it, and Ni Long bit the wooden pillar, swinging wildly.

Bang!
The wooden pillar was actually torn off.

"What a monster!"

The emperor praised.

Sha Jin rushed over fiercely, pressed on the back of the dragon, held the mouth of the dragon with both hands, and pressed hard.

The huge body of the dragon swayed, but it couldn't get rid of Sha Jin.

Sha Jin let go of his right hand, and hit Chu Long hard on the forehead.

Bah!
"Are you satisfied?"

"Bah!"

"Are you satisfied?"

Sha Jin took a deep breath, opened his mouth and shouted, "Kneel!"

The right fist hammered heavily on the back of the dragon.

The dragon's body trembled heavily, and its high head dropped to the ground.

Aiming at the emperor.

"Long live Your Majesty!"

Sha Jin knelt beside him and shouted.

Emperor Longyan Dayue said, "What a monster, what a murderer! Hahahaha!"
