Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2038
Qin Tian didn't know anything about Chang'an City.

When he was approaching Liangzhou City, he finally heard the news that Yumen Pass had been lost.

After hearing the news, Qin Tian was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

"Zhang Hu hurt me, Zhang Hu hurt me."

Qin Tian was very angry. This was simply a conspiracy against him. That Zhang Hu abandoned the city and fled, so that Yumen Pass was occupied by the Western Turks. Doesn’t he know how important this Yumen Pass is?

But now that Yumen Pass is lost, how difficult is it to get it back?
If the Yumen pass is lost, the gate of Datang will also be lost.

angry, angry.

"Except for rest, there will be no stops on the way. Hurry up to Liangzhou City."

The current Qin Tian only wanted to get to Liangzhou City as soon as possible. If he couldn't get to Liangzhou City as soon as possible, then the soldiers and horses of the Western Turks might attack Liangzhou City again after capturing Yumen Pass.

And once Liangzhou City is lost, it will be a disaster for their entire Tang Dynasty.

And if he doesn't even have Liangzhou City, can he, the king of Xiliang, still be able to do it?
After Qin Tian gave this order, the whole team hurried to Liangzhou City without stopping.

And Qin Tian's worry was not without reason.

Just after Ashina Helu captured Yumen Pass, he called a group of his generals together.

"Everyone, now we have two options. First, directly attack the Western Regions and control the countries in the Western Regions. The Western Regions are very large and the countries are also very rich. If we control them, our disaster can be relieved." Ah, the disadvantage is that the Western Regions are too big, and it will take a lot of time to control them."

"The second thing is to directly attack Liangzhou City. Liangzhou City has a single target and is close. It will save time if we want to attack. However, I heard that Qin Tian has been named King of Xiliang and is rushing to Liangzhou Now, this Qin Tian is very powerful, if we meet him, the situation will not be very good, how to choose, do you have any ideas?"

After Ashina Helu asked, everyone looked at each other, and soon someone started talking.

"Your Majesty Khan, the last general thinks that it is better to attack the countries in the Western Regions. The countries in the Western Regions are far apart, and it is not easy for them to rescue them. After our cavalry rushes away, we can directly destroy a country. In this way, other countries come to the rescue. By then, we had already completed our mission, so we can slowly devour the entire Western Regions."

"That's right, that's right. The last general also thinks it's better to attack the countries in the Western Regions. Here in Tang, we don't have to worry too much. We just need to send people to guard the Yumen Pass. If someone guards it, can we take the Yumen Pass with Qin Tian's thousands of troops? "

"Extremely, extremely, we should reach out to the countries in the Western Regions and get wealth from them to help us survive the snow disaster."

"In comparison, Liangzhou is also a relatively barren place. Even if we capture it, there is not much oil and water. If we meet Qin Tian, ​​we may not be able to capture Liangzhou City. Once we fail to capture Liangzhou City, We are about to become passive."

"........."

A group of people said that many people thought that they should take action against the countries of the Western Regions. Since they cut off the Silk Road, it would be a little unreasonable for them not to take action against the countries of the Western Regions.

However, some of these people are against it.

"Your Majesty Khan, the general feels that it is better for us to attack Liangzhou City. The biggest enemy of our Western Turks is not the countries of the Western Regions, but the Tang Dynasty. If we attack the countries of the Western Regions, the Tang Dynasty and the countries of the Western Regions will What should we do together, so we might as well capture Liangzhou City first, then Qin Tian is the king of Xiliang, if Liangzhou city is in our hands, how can he be the king of Xiliang?"

"That's right, that's right, it's better for us to attack Liangzhou. This is our best chance to capture Datang. If we miss it, it will be gone."

Different people have different opinions, and the two sides soon began to quarrel.

"It's good to attack the Western Regions."

"No, it's better to attack Liangzhou City."

"........."

The two sides quarreled endlessly, and what each said made sense. After seeing this situation, Ashina Helu was quite speechless, but after thinking about it, he waved his hand and said: "Okay, what you said It makes sense, we want to attack Liangzhou City, and we also want to attack the countries in the Western Regions, so why not attack them all?"

Everyone was taken aback when they heard that they were all attacking. It was a very dangerous thing to attack, because in this case, they would need to divide their troops, and if they divided their troops, their power would become weaker.

"Your Majesty Khan, are you really attacking?"

"Yeah, we're all attacking, don't we have a little more appetite?"

Ashina Helu laughed: "We just need to have a bigger appetite. What does it matter if we have a big appetite? With our western Turkic cavalry in hand, we can't go anywhere? What's more, the city of Liangzhou is only a few thousand It’s all about soldiers and horses, will it be difficult for us to capture Liangzhou City?”

It has to be said that Ashina Helu is an extremely ambitious person, and at the same time a very arrogant person. In his opinion, as long as he is willing, he can defeat these things, such as the Western Regions and the Tang Dynasty.

After he finished speaking, the people who spoke were a little excited.

"Okay, okay, since His Majesty Khan has decided, then we will do this, divide our troops into two groups, and use troops against the countries in the Western Regions and Liangzhou City at the same time."

"That's right, if we use troops against these two countries, our Western Turks are now stronger and we are not afraid of them."

"That's right, that's right, don't be afraid of them, use troops against them."

A group of people became very fanatical, fanatics probably know who they are, now they feel that their strength is very strong, how powerful is it, the Western Regions are not afraid, and the Tang Dynasty is not afraid.

As long as they want, they can wantonly ravage these two countries.

After making such a decision, Ashina Helu sent [-] soldiers and horses to the countries of the Western Regions to attack the countries of the Western Regions. Here, he took [-] soldiers and horses and rushed towards Liangzhou City.

He wants to capture Liangzhou City before Qin Tian arrives, and completely slaps Datang in the face. Didn't Datang think that he is very powerful, and now he will let Li Shimin know who is the most powerful.

When the spring breeze was warm, when Ashina Helu rushed to Liangzhou City with his soldiers and horses, Zhang Hu had fled back outside Liangzhou City with the remaining 5000 soldiers and horses.

At this moment in Liangzhou city, there were a thousand standing soldiers and horses, and the commander of this army was Wu Dalong, governor of Liangzhou city. Wu Dalong already knew about the fall of Yumen Pass, and he also knew what was going on.

So when Zhang Hu came with his troops, Wu Dalong ordered people to close the gate of the city, without any intention of letting them in.
