The heavens start from saving Daming

Chapter 514 Taros Prelude

The emperor changed from the fatuous Li Sanlang to Li Yunze.

The imperial court, where power officials and treacherous ministers ruled, also operated cleanly and efficiently.

The dismantling of the feudal town eased the crisis of the frontier army growing bigger, and the large-scale actions to benefit the people also gradually dissipated the resentment among the people.

At this time, Datang cannot be said to have done its best, it can only be said that it is getting better and better.

Li Yunze, who worked hard to improve himself, was praised by countless people.

Li Bai, Du Fu, Wang Changling, Wang Wei and others wrote countless poems to praise Li Yunze and the Tang Dynasty that was gradually flourishing at this time.

Even the disciples of Liyuan, who eat with their own handicrafts in various cities, are constantly creating and sending works about Li Yunze.

Of course, it must be a nice word of praise.

After all, the people of Tang Dynasty like to hear this now.

The entire Tang Dynasty has gradually stepped into a thriving track.

After Li Yunze's unremitting efforts, Yang Yuhuan finally had a son, and her depression disappeared without a trace.

It's just that Li Yunze was holding his eldest daughter and holding his younger daughter very happily, and he didn't care about his son at all.

After all, daughters are caring little padded jackets, and most men are slaves to daughters.

Of course, livestock that accidentally reincarnated into the human world do not count.

At this time, the population of Datang was also showing explosive growth.

The common people got the fields, and they brought in cattle and horses from the Northland Ranch as the main force for farming. In addition, Li Yunze provided high-yield seeds and made soil and chemical fertilizers, and the upper limit of feeding the population was greatly increased.

Of course, these are just the foundations. The real reason is that Li Yunze lightly pays and pays lightly, which relieves the pressure of life for the common people.

With surplus food in the family, more children can be fed.

To expand the income of surplus grain, more fertile soil is needed.

Ge Shuhan's progress in Tianzhu was smooth, and in just a few years, he had a condescending impact and occupied a large area of ​​the territory.

The land here in Tianzhu is fertile and rainy, and the local people's will to resist is not strong.

It can be said to be an excellent land for farming.

The only difficulty is that the road is too difficult to walk.

The people with their families and their families want to reach Tianzhu through the plateau, and the loss along the way will be an unbearable price.

The only feasible route is to go through Longyou, Hexi, the Western Regions, and Central Asia, and then go south to Tianzhu.

The road is densely populated, there are enough food supplies and places to stay and rest, and the most important thing is that there are soldiers and horses along the way to escort.

In the final analysis, it still falls on the Western Regions and Central Asia.

In order to go to Central Asia, Li Yunze made extremely thorough preparations.

Not only did they immigrate to the Western Regions on a large scale, they reclaimed the area to provide military food, and they also severely squeezed the Huihe, Tuqishi, Ge Luolu and other vassal tribes, and asked Yang Guozhong to arrange cruel officials to frantically demand all kinds of livestock.

For several years in a row, it has continuously transported various military supplies to the Western Regions, and stored them in the four towns of Anxi, waiting for the arrival of the army.

The Emperor's Forbidden Army continued to expand in size, especially after mobilizing most of the Northern Frontier Army to supplement it, its combat effectiveness was greatly enhanced.

The expansion is mainly concentrated on the cavalry and Mo Dao soldiers. Large-scale expansion of the cavalry is extremely costly, even with the national strength of Datang, it is a bit scratchy.

Fortunately, the large-scale planting of alfalfa and soybeans has greatly alleviated this dilemma.

Time flies, and the thriving Datang ushered in the ten-year spring of Tianbao.

On this day, the court held a grand court meeting, and the courtiers were reporting matters related to this year's spring plowing.

No one expected that at this moment, Li Yunze, who was sitting on the throne, suddenly asked, "Masters, Gao Xianzhi said that he has won a lot of victories in the repeated confrontations with Heiyi Dashi in the past few years. Just around the corner, mobilize the main force to try to invade my Datang
. "

Li Yunze looked around at all the ministers, and slowly said, "I want to conquer by myself, expand the land in the far west in one fell swoop, and recover Dawan, Wusun and other places, the hometown of the Han Dynasty. I don't know what you think?"

As soon as these words came out, the hall suddenly fell silent.

For the past few years, Li Yunze has been living in seclusion, busy raising offspring with Yang Yuhuan in the Daming Palace.

Under the comfort, the courtiers gradually forgot that this is Emperor Wu who likes to fight.

It is said to ask for everyone's opinions, but in fact everyone knows that this His Majesty's idea is very righteous, and since he said it, it means that he has made a decision.

At this time, what everyone has to do is to join in.

Finally, Zhang Jiuling was killed, and Li Linfu, who successfully took the position of chief assistant in the cabinet, was the first to salute, "My lord, I wish your Majesty a successful victory!"

With people starting, the people behind will naturally follow.

Soon the main hall was full of "I wish your Majesty a successful start and success~~~"

There are basically no fools who are courtiers.

When Li Sanlang waited for the faint king to be in power, he would naturally fish when he could.

When Sima Zhong was waiting for the Sand Sculpture to be in power, he naturally had to reserve a way out.

And hexagonal fighters like Li Yunze just need to be obedient and work, and don't need to think about anything else.

Basically, as long as there is an emperor with such hexagonal fighters, he must be in a prosperous age.

Doing things in the prosperous age, no matter what you do, is much easier.

Li Yunze nodded in satisfaction, talking and doing things with these smart people is much easier and more convenient.

Sand sculptures are not qualified to appear in Li Yunze's court, unless they are for fun.

Next is government arrangements.

As in the past, there are still six cabinet bachelors in charge of state affairs.

The six people discussed and resolved small matters, and urgently sent them to the front line for reporting.

As for someone suggesting that the eldest son of the emperor be the crown prince, and then use the crown prince to oversee the country, Li Yunze immediately scoffed.

Just kidding, how many princes of the Tang Dynasty will end well?
It is still the old method in other worlds, which is directly to build a reserve secretly.

It doesn't matter if you can't become emperor, Li Yunze will entrust the rest of the princes to various parts of the world.

Naturally, it is impossible for the army to go out today and leave tomorrow.

This kind of thing is like a million troops besieging a village, just watch it for fun.

In fact, as early as a few years ago, Li Yunze began to transport hoarded supplies to the Western Regions, and most of the food and grass were also processed locally in the Western Regions, which simplified too many steps in the work.

But even so, it took more than a month to make the arrangements.

For the rest of this month, Li Yunze did not stay idle, but worked hard to sing along with Yang Yuhuan, until Yang Yuhuan, who had already raised several princesses and princes, was happy again, and then officially set off.

The army set out from various places in Guanzhong, pulling out a long snake formation and marching in groups.

The route is to go to Longyou first, then cross Hexi, follow the Silk Road and finally arrive at Anxi Duhufu.

When leaving Chang'an City, Wang Wei, who was not selected to accompany him, wiped his tears and sent a farewell poem to his friends.

'The morning rain in Weicheng is light and the dust is light, and the guest houses are green and willows are new. '

'I advise you to drink more wine, and go west to Yangguan without any old friends. '

Li Yunze, who watched this scene from the sidelines, smiled and signaled everyone to drink together, "As expected of the wine in Wang Wei's poem, everyone, drink it up!"

Everyone was drinking, but the court painter Wu Daozi was busy painting and painted this "Tang Emperor Coming out of Chang'an".

Bid farewell to everyone, and travel slowly under the escort of the Habayashi Army.

Leaving the prosperous city of Chang'an and the affluent land of Guanzhong.

Entering Longyou, there are mountains everywhere.

After crossing the west of the river, the mountains are even higher.

It is better to enter the Western Regions, the desert is criss-cross, and the towering Tianshan Mountains are spectacular sights that Li Bai and others have never seen before.

Not surprisingly, these great poets such as Li Bai, Du Fu and Wang Changling have created excellent works one after another.

The time came to June of the tenth year of Tianbao, and Li Yunze, who was busy in a hurry, finally arrived at the city of Qiuci in the Anxi Protectorate.

Seeing this city, the first impression in Li Yunze's mind was those white-haired Tang soldiers decades later. They stood firm on the land of the Tang Dynasty and fought to the last moment.

"Fortunately, I destroyed Tubo, so you don't have to be overwhelmed by the Tubo people's crowd tactics. This Western Region is ours after all."

Gao Xianzhi, who has heard his name for a long time but is the first time I have seen it, Feng Changqing who was sent to do preliminary preparations a few years ago, and Gao Shi who volunteered to work in the Western Regions, is keen on military career, followed Cen Shen and others who came to the Western Regions together with Feng Changqing, all
Meet Li Yunze outside the city.

Many of them were from the hidden mansion of Prince Shou's Mansion back then, joking and joking with Li Bai, Du Fu, Wang Changling and others who came along with them.

In addition, there is another heavyweight figure waiting for Li Yunze here.

"Chen, the Protector of the Beiting Protectorate, Guo Ziyi, pay my respects to Your Majesty~~~"

In this turbulent era, how could Guo Ziyi, the famous Zhongxing general of the Tang Dynasty, be missing.

When Li Yunze was the Crown Prince of the Shouwang, Guo Ziyi was considered a high-ranking and powerful person, so it was naturally impossible for him to be wooed.

When he led the team through the Xuanwu Gate to perform "The Music of the King of Qin Breaking the Array" for Li Sanlang, there was no need to woo him anymore.

Li Yunze directly transferred him to Beiting, as the Chief Protector of Beiting Protectorate.

The so-called Beiting Protectorate's Mansion actually took Tianshan Mountain as the dividing line. To the south of Tianshan Mountain was Anxi Protectorate's Mansion, and to the north of Tianshan Mountain was Beiting Protectorate's Mansion.

The Western Regions are actually divided into two parts.

Li Yunze had summoned almost all the famous generals of the Central Tang Dynasty to this battle with the Black Clothes Dashi, which showed how much he attached importance to it.

In other words, it is difficult to appease the historical battle of Heng Ross.

"Everyone, you have worked hard for the country."

Li Yunze on horseback was in high spirits, "Go into the city to talk."

Apart from the Lingyan Pavilion famous generals at the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the second batch of the strongest famous generals in the Tang Dynasty were all with him at this time.

Above the lobby, Li Yunze first asked Gao Xianzhi about the trend of the black-clothed food.

"The governor of the enemy chief, Khorasan, has assembled an army of 20 troops in the Hengluo area." Gao Xianzhi replied, "I think I should take the initiative to attack."

Li Yunze nodded, and turned his gaze to Guo Ziyi, "Have the Huihe, Tuqishi, and Ge Luolu departments ever been mobilized?"

"Return to Your Majesty." Guo Ziyi cupped his hands and responded, "After receiving the imperial decree, all the ministries took action. Only Tuqi's delay was not enough, and he refused to send troops and livestock under various excuses."

"Since he is disobedient, then he will be flattened."

Li Yunze waved his hand indifferently, "You can deal with this matter when you get back."

"only."

After talking for a while, Li Yunze stood up, "This battle is a crucial battle that opens the way to the extreme western sea. Only victory is allowed, no defeat is allowed!"

All the generals agreed in unison, "Wei!"
