Chapter 436 Chapter 447: Here Comes the Opportunity

Chapter 436 Chapter 447: Here Comes the Opportunity
In the 21st year of Zhenguan, in June, after several years of recuperation in the snow-covered plateau, Tubo Zamp Songtsan Gampo and Prime Minister Ge Erdong worked together to make Tubo stronger and stronger, because they deeply remembered The shame that Datang brought to them is a very powerful driving force for some people.

Songtsan Gampo and Geer Dongzan were very happy when they learned that Li Hao was demoted to Qiongnan. Li Shimin's stupid act of destroying the Great Wall also inspired their desire for revenge. Hao is like a Great Wall protecting the Great Tang, like a moat that cannot be crossed, but this moat no longer exists, can they not be excited? They have endured it for so long, and finally feel that the time is ripe.

On the sixth day of June, Songtsan Gampo recruited 15 troops, personally killed Princess Gaoyang to sacrifice the flag, and vowed to launch a war of annihilation against the Tang Dynasty, and never die. The commander of the [-]th army this time is not Zuo Rushuai, It wasn't Zhong Rushuai, nor You Rushuai, but Ge Erdongzan, the Prime Minister of Tubo.

Ge Erdongzan has intensively studied the art of war in the past few years, and carefully studied Li Hao's many combat cases. It can be said that he is well prepared. This time, it is not to say that there is no Li Hao in the Tang Dynasty. Even if Li Hao is there, he is not afraid. Excited, he even hoped that Li Hao would come, so that he could avenge his shame, and see if this so-called Tubo nemesis could really restrain him.

After all, Geer Dongzan is a wise star of Tubo. Even though he has only studied the art of war for three years, he has already reached the state of perfection. He did not pass through Gansongling this time, but sent troops to Tuyuhun, and directly blocked the east, south, and south of Tuyuhun. North three main roads to prevent news from leaking.

Tuyuhun King Nuogebo had already been frightened by the 15 Tubo army, so he hurried out of the city and surrendered. He knew the barbarism of the Tubo people.

Ge Erdongzan used Tuyuhun as a springboard, bypassed Chiling, and with lightning speed, within three days he even took Shibao City, Dafeichuan, and Langzhou. Three days later, he captured Shanzhou again. The Tubo army was barbaric. After entering the city, they burned, killed, looted, and committed all kinds of crimes. The destroyed city was like a hell on earth, and the people of Tang Dynasty suffered catastrophe.

Ge Erdongzan had acquired the essence of the art of war, and he knew the truth that soldiers are precious and fast. He sent You Rushuai Lunzhuren with a rate of [-] elite cavalry to attack Lanzhou by surprise, and at the same time he led an army of [-] to attack Huizhou.

It was only when Geer Dongzan captured Shanzhou that Li Shimin received an urgent military report from Tubo. Tubo army.

Both Cheng Zhijie and Su Dingfang are well-known generals who have experienced battles. Qin Huaiyu and Yuchi Baolin also won the true biography of their fathers. They shined brilliantly in the battle against Goguryeo. Very optimistic about them.

However, Li Shimin was negligent. The opponents they faced this time were not ordinary people, but Ge Erdongzan, who was the most knowledgeable in Tubo. Ge Erdongzan never fought unprepared battles. There is a movement, sending falcons to send messages, Tibetans are good at training falcons, using this to send messages is absolutely unexpected for Tang people.

When he learned that Su Dingfang, Zhijie, and two young generals were leading the army, Ge Erdongzan in the tooth tent sneered coldly: "Li Ji was not dispatched, huh, Li Shimin underestimated me." It’s true, but it’s okay, the truth will make you pay a heavy price for it!”

Ge Erdongzan did not change his battle plan, and after capturing Huizhou, he went to attack Taiyuan. When he was less than sixty miles away from Taiyuan, Su Dingfang's [-] troops and Cheng Zhijie's [-] troops suddenly appeared, coming from the east and southeast. Surprise attack on the Tubo army.

Cheng Zhijie thought that he would be able to succeed in this surprise attack, and Taiyuan City was to the north, and the Tubo army would have nowhere to escape. However, what he did not expect was that Geer Dongzan did not escape at all. He seemed to have been prepared for a long time. It seemed that he directly led the army to fight with them. Then, Lunzhu Renzeng suddenly appeared from the south with another [-] Tubo army, encircling them. Cheng Zhijie and Su Dingfang's [-] troops were ambushed by Ge Erdongzan.

Upon hearing the news, the governor of Taiyuan quickly sent troops to support. Qin Huaiyu and Yuchi Baolin, who originally wanted to go around to the west to ambush Geer Dongzan, also hurriedly led an army of [-] to help.

However, when the Taiyuan army joined forces with Su Dingfang and Cheng Zhijie's army to attack Geerdongzan, a military report suddenly came from a fast horse.

Everyone was shocked instantly. Taiyuan is not an ordinary city. In Guanzhong, apart from Chang'an, Taiyuan is the most prosperous and prosperous city. There are hundreds of thousands of people in the city, because it is the place where the great ancestor Li Yuan took off. It was captured by Tubo. I have to say that Ge Erdongzan's trick is really beautiful.

As soon as he learned that Taiyuan had been captured, Geer Dongzan immediately retreated and led his army to Taiyuan. Su Dingfang and Cheng Zhijie together knew that the pursuit would have no effect, so they could only lead the troops to retreat to Jingzhou and report to Li Shimin.

When Li Shimin heard that Taiyuan had fallen, he sent a thunderbolt and directly overturned the dragon case. Then he covered his chest and fell on the seat. His face was pale and painful, and he passed out. After diagnosis and treatment, he was diagnosed with heart disease. Although Li Shimin's life was saved, it was two days after Li Shimin woke up.

After Li Shimin woke up, his body was very weak, but he still supported his weak body and called a group of ministers to discuss countermeasures. In the end, Li Shimin ordered Li Ji to lead [-] troops. For their old Li family, it has extraordinary significance and must not fall into the hands of Tubo barbarians.

Since Li Hao left, looking at the entire court, in terms of military talent, Li Ji said that he was second, no one dared to be number one, and with Li Ji in charge, all the officials felt relieved.

Li Ji led the army all the way to Jingzhou, met with Su Dingfang and Zhijie, discussed the strategy, and then began to send troops to attack Taiyuan.

In order to regain Taiyuan, Li Ji implemented the conventional method of besieging three towers and one attack. However, there are 15 people defending the city in Tubo, and the walls of Taiyuan are thick, and the Tang army is only 15. Geer Dongzan is not afraid at all. After three consecutive days of attack, they lost 7000 men and horses, without an inch of success.

In fact, the siege was just a cover for Li Ji, he was waiting, waiting for Ge Erdong to praise the waves.

Anyone who has played competitive games knows that once some people have an advantage in the game, they will make all kinds of waves and feel that they are invincible in the world, and such people will often be overturned if they encounter an opponent who can withstand it, so Li Ji Just waiting for Ge Erdong to praise the waves.

Ge Erdongzan does have the capital of waves, he is now an absolute advantage, not to mention defending the city, even if he goes out of the city to fight, he is not afraid, on the night of the fourth day, Geer Dongzan really made waves, Pago Dahlman led an army of [-] out of the city to attack Cheng Zhijie's camp at night. Li Ji had been waiting for a long time and immediately sent troops to attack the city. He did not send troops to rescue Cheng Zhijie at all, because he had already told Cheng Zhijie that if the enemy attacked at night, he would do his best Hold on and buy him an opportunity to attack the city.

Datang's siege equipment was relatively powerful. After a strong attack, the [-] Tubo troops in the city were unable to resist, and finally broke through the south gate.

As soon as the city gate was broken, the army poured into the city gate, entered the urn city, and continued to break the gate. As long as the urn gate was broken, Taiyuan could be captured.

However, when Li Ji was commanding Powengcheng, a large army suddenly arrived from the south. It was Godalman's [-] army. They escaped Cheng Zhijie's army and rushed to help. Li Ji was shocked. So fucking incompetent.

Cheng Zhijie is also very wronged. He has been following Li Ji's orders and led the [-] troops to fight and retreat. After all, there are so many people on the other side that he can't beat him. He only followed Li Ji's plan and delayed them. Just live.

However, the [-] troops were originally a pawn laid by Ge Erdongzan to attract the Tang army to attack the city, and then the army in the city pretended to be invincible, allowing the Tang army to break through the city gate and enter the urn city. The [-] troops quickly returned to the defense, attacking inside and outside, leaving all these Tang troops behind. This was actually a pocket trick set by Ge Erdongzan.

At the moment, there are at least 20 Tang troops in the urn city, blocked by Godalman's [-] troops, unable to get out, and want to continue to attack, but arrows rain down on the city, and the Tubo army also used kerosene, and began to attack The urn was set on fire, and Datang was experiencing the worst defeat in [-] years.

Fortunately, Cheng Zhijie's [-] troops also rushed to help, and forcibly tore a hole in Godalman's [-] troops, and rescued Li Ji, Su Dingfang and other main forces. As for the other [-] troops, they were all buried in the Taiyuan.

How could Ge Erdongzan allow them to escape and pursue them all the way. In the end, Li Ji and the others were defeated and fled into Jingzhou. The ever-victorious general Li Ji, who had experienced many battles, was at a loss, so he could only send a military report to Chang'an in a hurry.

Ge Erdongzan didn't get entangled with Li Ji and the others, bypassed Jingzhou, and directly led the army to advance all the way to the southeast. When they met the city and seized the city, they were unstoppable, and pointed directly at Chang'an. His face was as pale as paper, and his already weak body became worse, and he fell ill again.

Now Chang'an has less than [-] troops. Seeing that the Tubo army will soon approach the city, the whole Chang'an is in panic. A large number of common people and wealthy businessmen have begun to flee to Chang'an. After all, Tubo came to Chang'an, and they must flee Chang'an.

And above the court, all the ministers are also worried. After all, the Tubo army, the emperor is ill now, and no one is in charge of the overall situation. The most terrible thing is that there is no one available in the court. Even Li Ji was defeated. Who can stop Ge Erdongzan's soldiers.

When Geer Dongzan attacked Chang'an, Li Hao, who was in Qiongnan, received Shi Najie's letter from Feige, which described in detail the battle between Tubo's dispatch of troops and Li Ji's defeat.

After Li Hao read the letter in the study, he burned the note casually. Watching the note turn into ashes, Li Hao got up slowly and sighed: "The opportunity has finally come, what a pity... How much sacrifice has been made for this opportunity?" A warm-blooded good son of the common people and Datang."

 It was Li Hao's turn to leave the mountain.
