Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 797
The Turks, Jieli Khan and the others soon got the news of Liang Guo's demise and the news of the annihilation of Techuanxiang's entire army.

After the news came, Jieli Khan was even more shocked and angry than before.

Although the military strength of the Liang State was not as strong as that of the Later Sui Dynasty, it was too incredible to be wiped out like this?

Also, Te Chuan Elephant was wiped out by the entire army. How is this possible?

There is no army that can annihilate their Turkic army, but such a thing just happened.

After hearing the news, Jieli Khan was silent for a whole morning. It was not until the afternoon that he finally spoke the first sentence: "Damn it..."

Immediately afterwards, he sent someone to call the court officials.

At this time, those Turkic people already knew the news of Liang Guo's demise.

After everyone came to the main hall, they were a little nervous, and didn't know what to say for a while.

Jieli Khan glanced at them and said: "The Tang Dynasty has risen suddenly in the past two years. This is definitely a disaster for us Turks. They want revenge and destroy us Turks. What should we do in this situation?"

At this time, Jieli Khan really felt the danger coming.

Perhaps, they may be wiped out by the Tang Dynasty at any time, just like the Sui and Liang countries after the Tang Dynasty was wiped out.

Faced with such a predicament, they were naturally a little worried.

The others looked at each other, and then someone stood up: "Your Majesty Khan, we must act first, so that our Majesty can defeat the Tang army."

"That's right, Datang was destroyed."

"Now Datang is probably ready to go. We want to bring the battlefield to their territory and rush to kill them."

"........."

The Turkic people, who were already wild, became even wilder when they encountered the current situation.

Now, only killing can make them forget the fear deep in their hearts. They need a battle to prove that Tang Jun is not as powerful as they imagined.

These people said so, and finally looked at Jieli Khan, Jieli Khan nodded, and he also felt that they really needed to fight the Tang army.

But how to fight?

"Everyone, should we kill them directly, or wait for them to kill them?" Jieli Khan asked. Although both were killed, the results of the two situations were completely different.

If they kill directly, then they will be more active and can drag the battlefield to Datang's territory, but in this case, they will have to attack the city, which is not what they are good at. It's not easy for Don either.

Waiting for the Tang army to kill them, they will have an advantage. After all, on the grassland, their cavalry can be said to be invincible.

Jieli Khan looked at the crowd, and soon, Wu Yangzi stood up and said: "Your Majesty Khan, in the current situation, it is very disadvantageous for us to attack the city. Whether it is Dingxiang City or Liang City, there are several Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses are stationed, we need at least one hundred thousand soldiers and horses to be absolutely sure to capture one of the cities, but in Lingzhou, the Tang army may be dispatched at any time, if we draw one hundred thousand soldiers and horses here to attack the city If that is the case, the defense over there is bound to be weak and will affect the rear, so what I mean is that you might as well wait for the Tang army and fight them to the death."

Wu Yangzi's analysis made some sense, and the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee discussed it again before finally deciding on it.
-
Time passed by, and at the end of autumn, the weather in Lingzhou was already surprisingly cold, making people shiver.

Even many soldiers have already put on the cotton clothes distributed by the court.

And at this moment, Su Dingfang's spies finally arrived in Lingzhou, and told Li Jing and Qin Shubao about the situation.

After hearing that Sui and Liang countries had been destroyed, Li Jing and the others were very excited.

"Okay, Qin Tian and Su Dingfang are still very good. They were able to destroy the Hou Sui and Liang in such a short period of time. This will make our next battle against the Turks more beneficial."

Without the intervention of Later Sui and Liang, they could concentrate on dealing with the Turks, which was indeed a particularly beneficial thing for them.

"Marshal Li, my general asked me to ask, what should I do next, whether to directly attack the Turks?"

Both Liang Guo and Later Sui Dynasty were destroyed, and they didn't think there was anything that could stop them.

However, after the spies asked this question, Li Jing hesitated for a moment. After hesitating, he finally shook his head: "No, we will not attack. We will attack the Turks after the spring of next year."

"After the beginning of spring?" Hearing that he had to wait until after the beginning of spring to make a move, the spy was stunned for a moment, unable to understand at all, now is a good time, why wait?

If it's the beginning of spring next year, I'm afraid it will take three or four months, right?

Three or four months is enough for them to destroy the Turks.

Consuming it like this is really not a rational choice.

On Li Jing's side, he nodded: "The weather is getting colder and colder. After winter, the weather in Turkic is even colder. Although we have cotton clothes, relatively speaking, our soldiers can't adapt to such cold weather. If we go to war, we may We can't even hold our weapons securely, and if we go there, we will die. Therefore, we would rather wait than take risks. If we want to destroy the Turks, we have only one chance. If we miss it, we don't know how many years it will take to recover. "

If this battle fails to destroy the Turks and show their prestige, then their Datang will fall into a trough all of a sudden, and at that time, everything will be too late.

The more the war of destroying the country, the more cautious it is.

When the spy heard this, he finally understood. In fact, he felt that what Li Jing said was right, because he came all the way, and he was a little bit unbearable against the cold wind. It's not winter yet. Earth, if it's winter, it might be so cold.

Thinking about it makes me shiver.

The spies retreated after agreeing, and told Su Dingfang and the others about the situation.

Qin Tian naturally got the news soon.

"Marshal Li is right. The weather is getting colder and colder. I'm afraid that after winter, our soldiers will not be able to stand the cold. Stiff hands and feet are indispensable. On the contrary, Turkic people have already adapted to it. I don’t think there is anything, it’s a good thing to wait.”

Li Ji agrees with Li Jing's strategy. Qin Tian also nodded his head here. He has a way to prevent the hands and feet of the soldiers from frostbite, but it is just not frostbite. Facing the cold weather, the soldiers must not be able to bear it. Yes, at that time we couldn't even hold weapons steadily, so how could we fight.

Cold is a scary thing.

So, since you can't fight a war, just wait, and wait for the spring to warm up before fighting the Turks.

However, they cannot do nothing.
