Starting from Comprehensive Martial Arts: Bu Dao Lu

Chapter 287
Zhu Qi: "The three land gods joining forces are indeed a terrifying force."

Dao Yan: "If those three really join forces, I'm afraid they are already planning to drive the Eastern Expedition Army out of the Tang Dynasty."

Zhu Qi looked at the somewhat reserved prince and said, "Prince, block the news of my coming to the Tang Empire."

"Wen Keng takes the order!" the prince said hurriedly.

Zhu Qi: "Gong Xin, King Jingjiang, and Duke Cao, you are planning an offensive to test the Tang Empire's reaction first. See if these three land gods have really joined forces."

"The last will obey."

Zhu Qi: "Okay, let's all disperse!"

Dao Yan's guess was actually correct. The three land gods of the Tang Empire did show signs of joining forces.

Li Longji: "The Ming Empire has invaded one-third of the empire's territory. If we allow the situation to rot, it will be difficult to preserve the country of the Tang Empire."

Li Jiancheng snorted and said: "All the seven land gods from the five western grassland countries fell at the hands of the Ming Empire. The one from the Ming Empire even beat Nurhaci to death in full view of the public. Do you think the empire has the strength to stop that one? ?"

Li Longji: "That person's strength is indeed terrifying. He is probably the most powerful person since the ancient human emperors. However, the empire is not without strength to resist. As long as the three of us work together, I think that person will also be afraid of him." One or two. I don’t believe that he can suppress three land gods in one battle.”

Regarding Li Longji’s bold words, Li Jiancheng was noncommittal!

The Tang Empire is currently dominated by the lineage of Li Longji and Wu Zetian. His lineage is often suppressed, and he will not join forces with Li Longji without enough benefits.

Moreover, Li Jiancheng did not believe that the Ming Empire could eventually destroy the Tang Empire, which was dominated by three land gods.In this case, there is nothing wrong with letting Li Longji suffer some hardships and spit out some benefits.In the past few years, he and Wu Zetian had just stood aside and watched the war in the Tang Empire, just to obtain benefits.

Seeing that Li Jiancheng was unmoved and Wu Zetian closed her eyes and said nothing, Li Longji knew that he had to cut his flesh and bleed it.

"The southern part of the empire is occupied by the Ming Empire. The empire can be divided into two principalities, but the prerequisite is that the soldiers and horses of the Ming Empire must be driven out!" Li Longji said loudly.

When Li Jiancheng and Wu Zetian heard this, their hearts moved.

Although the two of them supported the "Jiedushi" to become independent, they had no righteous cause and could only resort to some tricks.

Moreover, Li Longji's strength should not be underestimated.

Of course, the most important thing is that Li Jiancheng and Wu Zetian did not want to have a head-on conflict with Li Longji and destroy the Tang Empire.

This time the Ming Empire sent troops to the Tang Empire and occupied a large area of ​​the Tang Empire's territory in a short period of time. It would have been impossible without the help of Li Jiancheng and Wu Zetian.

Although the Tang Empire was not as powerful as the Ming Empire, it was not a declining empire.

In fact, the two of them could clearly see the thoughts behind Li Longji's proposal.

After the Ming Empire captured the western grasslands, the Tang Empire and the Han Empire in the east understood that the Ming Empire would definitely advance eastward.

such a pity!The Tang Empire was unlucky, and the Ming Empire chose the Tang Empire as its opponent.

Li Longji divided the southern territory of the empire between Li Jiancheng and Wu Zetian. In fact, he also had the intention of letting the two resist the Ming Empire.

Li Jiancheng and Wu Zetian certainly understood what Li Longji was thinking.But this is an opportunity, an opportunity to let oneself rise to the top in an honest way.

After all, in the previous Tang Empire, if Li Jiancheng and Wu Zetian wanted to ascend to power, they would encounter hostility from the other two parties.

In the past, it was impossible for Li Longji to be so generous in dividing one-third of the empire's territory between two people.

"Prince, monk, what can you do to disturb my purity?"

Zhu Qi, who was discussing Xuanwu with Zhang Sanfeng and the others, looked at the prince and Dao Yan who urgently asked for a meeting and asked with some confusion.

A few days ago, they had just decided to send out a large army to launch an offensive to test the arrangements of the Tang Empire.Calculating the time, the result should not be so soon.

"Grandpa Jiu, King Jingjiang and Duke Cao have received news that the Tang Empire's army has taken the initiative to counterattack." "The Tang Empire has counterattacked!" Zhu Qi nodded and said, "It seems that the monk is right. Li Jiancheng and the others have indeed joined forces. .”

After speaking, Zhu Qi looked at the prince and said, "Prince, how do you think the empire should respond."

Knowing that Zhu Qi intended to test him, the prince said loudly: "Grandpa Ninth, I think the imperial army should attack with attack and never give in at all!"

Zhu Qi: "Fight against attack, why?"

Prince: "The Eastern Expeditionary Army is an outsider in the territory of the Tang Empire and has a shallow foundation. Those three must also think that the empire has achieved such results in the past two years because of their indulgence. If the imperial army shows a slight decline, it will definitely encourage them. The arrogance of the enemy. Moreover, if the front line is slightly weak, it will inevitably cause instability in the rear territory and affect the whole body. Therefore, Sun'er believes that the imperial army must not show weakness and must fight attack with attack."

The prince chuckled and said: "Moreover, the Eastern Expeditionary Army now has the emperor's grandfather, the national master, and two ministers. Even if those three join forces to attack, the empire will not be afraid at all. In this case, the army will let go, Let them see the magnificence of my son, the son of the Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Qi nodded with satisfaction and said: "Yes, the prince's arrogance is quite like that of the great ancestor. In that case, just do what the prince said!"

"Wen Keng understands that he will never let Grandpa Huang down!"

"The prince has raised his account, and all the generals have obeyed his orders!"

In the big tent, the prince smiled and said: "Everyone, Grandpa Ninth has agreed to the strategy of using the army to attack with attack."

"Haha, with a commander in charge, why be afraid of those soft-footed shrimps in the Tang Empire."

The prince looked at the clamoring Lan Yu and said, "General Lan, the Tang Empire is not weak and must not be underestimated."

"Don't worry, Your Highness, the general will understand."

"Jingjiang King Zhu Wenzheng and Cao Guogong Li Wenzhong!"

"The end is here."

"Prince Jingjiang, you will guard the imperial defense line and provide unified command to resist the counterattack of the Tang Imperial Army."

"The end will obey orders!"

"Dong Cao Guo, you are in charge of the imperial elite cavalry army to counterattack the Tang Empire."

"The end will obey orders!"

"Two generals, I leave all internal and external wars to you. The troops, horses, supplies, and generals are all at your disposal. You don't have to report everything. I just want victory."

"The end will obey orders!"

"Xin Guo Gong, you will be in charge of the rear, dispatching food and grass, replenishing troops and horses, coordinating the guard station, and stabilizing the place."

"The old minister understands."

"Uncle Wang, if there is a war, there will be riots in the territory. Please cooperate with Duke Xin."

Zhu Gaochi nodded in agreement.

The prince looked at Monk Daoyan again and said, "Master, you need to worry more about the information."

Dao Yan: "Monk understands!"

Everyone looked at the smart and capable prince who arranged everything in an orderly manner.I couldn't help but sigh that the prince had gained a lot of experience in presiding over the military affairs of the Eastern Expedition in the past two years.

"Second brother, this war is different from the past, you have to deal with it carefully." Zhu Gaochi looked at Zhu Gaoxu in front of him and warned.

Zhu Gaoxu said nonchalantly: "Brother, this is not the first time I have fought!"
