Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 562 Anatomy

"Mr. Yan Bo is here today, and I don't deny it."

"Since the founding of the country, His Majesty the King of Qin wiped out Xue Ju and Liu Wuzhou, and later captured the two kings in a battle in the Central Plains. Even though there were few soldiers, he was fearless and accomplished a great cause."

Wen Yanbo nodded and said: "His Royal Highness the King of Qin is indeed one of the few outstanding figures in history books. He fought in all directions at a young age, won the hearts of the army, won the hearts of the generals, and his prestige was second to none."

There is no need to justify this. No matter what, Li Jiancheng is still in the East Palace. He has not made any achievements in several expeditions. up.

And Li Shimin didn't talk about the Great War in the Central Plains, only the Battle of Baibi was enough to overwhelm Li Jiancheng... That was the key battle that related to the fall of Li Tang. If he lost, Liu Wuzhou and Song Jingang would surely cross the Yellow River from Longmen and attack Jingzhao ... Li Yuan was afraid that he would abandon the city and flee.

Li Shan sighed: "Although the Turks are divided into two parts, the Eastern Turks control 40 strings, which is by no means comparable to Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande."

"There must be a national war between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks, but this is definitely not the time to start a war."

"The Central Plains had just been unified. After the first battle of Hulao in Luoyang, Liu Heitai came back twice, and then the Jianghuai army rebelled in the south of the Yangtze River. Now the war is coming to an end, but the soldiers were killed and injured, and the food and grass were consumed..."

"The army of the Seven Routes attacked the Huai Army, three of which were soldiers from the Beidi government. Liu Heitai rose twice, and tens of thousands of soldiers died in the battle in Hebei, most of them were soldiers from Guanzhong and Hedong."

"Chuluo Khan and Jieli Khan invaded Hedong several times, burning, killing and looting..." Li Shan pointed to the dark area not far from the foot of the hill, "Most of the [-] men and women were looted a few years ago and went."

"The rest and recuperation mentioned yesterday is definitely not just talk." Li Shan sighed: "Not only Daizhou, but the entire Hedong Road and the entire Guannei Road need to rest and recuperate."

"If you can postpone it for a day, you can relax after the war."

"Although the Turkic civil strife is present, the Tang Dynasty is already exhausted. Even if His Royal Highness King Qin personally leads the army, it will be difficult to do anything... On the contrary, it will prompt Jieli Khan and Tuli Khan to stop fighting and join forces."

Speaking of this, Li Shan smiled, "The King of Qin's majesty, the disciples of Ashina have heard quite a lot."

After being quiet for a while, Li Shan clearly heard the slightly heavy breathing of the two people around him, and said softly: "Turks come to the south to commit crimes, there are probably two ways."

"For example, in the fifth year of Wude, Jieli Khan personally led [-] cavalry and led Yuan Junzhang to attack Yanmen, almost piercing through the entire Hedong Road, and sent thousands of partial troops from Lingzhou to the south to break Yuanzhou, Longzhou, break through the Great Earthquake Pass and shake Chang'an."

"Wuyuan County is located in the west of Yunzhou. If it is possible, Jieli Khan will not use the main force to attack the inner road, but will attack Hedong."

"If Yanmen Pass is lost, the Tang army can only defend against the city at most, and the Turkic cavalry will act recklessly, hundreds of miles a day, how can Hedong resist?"

"Even if His Majesty sends the king of Qin and the crown prince out of Hedong to resist, the states in Hedong must be dilapidated...recuperate, recuperate..."

Speaking of this, Li Shan suddenly stopped talking, stared at Zhang Shigui with a cold expression, and said after a while: "Actually, Gu also has selfish intentions."

Changed the topic, and even used the title "Gu", Zhang Shigui's heart shuddered, and he lowered his head slightly.

"First, Gu Yu Daizhou planned for a long time to stir up civil strife in Turks, relocate the population, recover Mayi, and made up his mind to rebuild Guji Town. What he did was just to recuperate in Daizhou and even Hedong. In the future national war, with the merits of a certain person, isn't it true? Are you qualified to lead the army all the way?"

"But who would have thought that Yugu would commit the crime as a personal grievance. After the First World War, although he made outstanding contributions, it was impossible for him to be the general manager of the Jin Dynasty... but it was cheaper for the Yongkang county magistrate."

Wen Yanbo laughed and said: "That's true. Now Daizhou is full of people, resting and recuperating, with sufficient food, grass, and war horses. Outside the Great Wall, there are two important towns, Mayi and Guji. With the power of Yongkang County, the Turks will certainly not be able to break through."

"Secondly, in the past half a year, tens of thousands of people have moved alone to Daizhou, Xinzhou, Weizhou and other places, and now there are [-] men and women. Although the people can't live and work in peace and contentment, there are no... no more roadside bones to see pedestrians, The elders in the village don’t see the smoke from cooking.” Li Shanchang sighed, “There will be no more abandoned good fields, and there will be no more weeping but not laughing..."

Li Shan was stunned for a while, then held Zhang Shigui's hands, "It must be dangerous to set up a stronghold here, but Mayi is isolated outside the fortress, and it is difficult to stay for a long time. I only want to fight in Shuozhou and not hurt the people. This is my own selfish intention." , I also hope Brother Wu An will be successful."

Zhang Shigui was speechless for a long time, but his hands were slowly increasing his strength... Li Shan's cheeks twitched, thinking that he did not pick Zhang Gongjin, who was as powerful as a cauldron.

In fact, there are different opinions on Li Shan within the Tiance Mansion, quite a few people have opinions, and some people are because Li Shan beheaded Cui Bo to save the prince from the siege, which made the Qin Palace lack an excuse to attack the East Palace in a fair and honest manner.

Some people were expelled back to the capital because of Duan Zhixuan, the general of the Tiance Mansion... You must know that in these years, the King of Qin swept the world, and none of the generals under his command was arrogant.

But there are still some people, or they can’t say it in private. It is difficult for Junzhang to enter Hedong, and His Highness will no longer have the day to command soldiers.

But now, standing on this small hill, Zhang Shigui, who is usually cautious but arrogant, was moved by Li Shan's long speech and his last selfish words. He took a deep breath and fell on one knee, "Before leaving, Your Highness instructed that military and national affairs should be done in public."

"As entrusted by the king of Handan, the final general will not care about his own life. He is willing to take it all on his own. He will protect the inner city, so that the Turks will not harm the people, and the river east can recuperate."

Li Shan held Zhang Shigui in his arms, "His Royal Highness King Qin has the world in his heart..."

"Currently Turkic civil strife, but the capital is not peaceful, Chang'an seizes the throne, no matter who wins or loses, it is a matter of the future."

"Although the Turks are still in their heyday, Your Majesty is in full bloom..."

This sentence is not wrong, Li Yuan is only over 50 years old this year, and his health is still good, showing no signs of decline at all.

"If Brother Wu'an can reject the Turks in the north, stabilize Yanmen, and protect Daizhou, it is a matter of great importance for the military and the country. In the future, Brother Wu'an will be the first to sweep up the grasslands and drive away the enemy in Mobei."

"In terms of personal interests, brother Wu An is a confidant general of the King of Qin, such a great achievement... King Qin also has the merit of choosing someone."

Zhang Shigui nodded slightly, Wen Yanbo nodded again and again... and Li Shan's eyes were flickering, vacillating, his nonsense... could fool these honest people, uh, it might be because his previous performance was too contagious .
