Datang: Picking up a little Si Zi and accidentally admitting his kinship with blood?

Chapter 397: The Imperial Master of the Tang Dynasty also knows magic?

completely annihilated!

On that day, the Nanzhao Kingdom was conquered by a hundred thousand Yin soldiers, and the leader of the Nanzhao Kingdom, Xi Nuluo, was beheaded on the spot!

The entire Nanzhao Kingdom changed hands and was then placed under the territory of the Tang Dynasty!

In Chang'an City, Li Tai had already learned the news from Fei Ge's letter, but he didn't look very excited.

It's just a kingdom called Nanzhao. To the emperor's brother, it's really just a matter of sprinkling water.

As the emperor who has always been supported by the emperor's brother, Li Tai fully knows how terrifying the emperor's brother is!

"They even built a tower of human heads. Brother Huang is really angry. I don't know how those idiots angered Brother Huang... Oh yes, that is the place where the Witch Gu Sect is entrenched."

"Brother Emperor is going to the Witch Gu Sect this time. Some people have already fled to the Harbin Dynasty. The Harbin Dynasty is almost over..."

Li Tai lowered his head in thought and murmured.

On the one hand, receiving a letter from the imperial brother to understand the situation of the war, and on the other hand, he asked him to send people to prepare to take over the southwest territory.

Who should I send there?

That place was very barren, with mostly native barbarians, so it was inconvenient to do anything.

Not long after, the imperial study room was filled with ministers.

"Nanzhao has been destroyed by the imperial army, dear friends, you don't need to worry anymore."

Looking at Changsun Wuji and others, Li Tai smiled slightly.

Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Wei Zheng and others looked confused. Are they going to be destroyed now?

Even if we follow the route of the national division and its elite troops, they will only be able to reach Nanzhao early yesterday morning at most. Only one day has passed, right?

Is Nanzhao Kingdom gone?

For a moment, all the ministers felt like their scalps were numb, and they were thankful in their hearts.

Fortunately, the Imperial Preceptor is my Imperial Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty!

Wei Zheng also sighed and said: "I have known for a long time that the Imperial Master is an extraordinary person, but this news still surprises me..."

Changsun Wuji's expression didn't change much, as if he took it for granted.

After all, this Imperial Master single-handedly conquered Jieli, a small country in Nanzhao. Do you need to be shocked?

After a pause, Changsun Wuji said: "Your Majesty called us here, but for the southwest territory?"

It is not without reason that Changsun Wuji is called the confidant of confidants.

He had already made a rough guess based on His Majesty's words.

For a long time, although the southwest territory belonged to the Tang Dynasty, its jurisdiction was very limited.

After all, the terrain is remote and the climate is not good, so it has always been used as a place for exiled and demoted officials in the Tang Dynasty.

But now, things are different!

The Nanzhao Kingdom was destroyed, and the threat from the southwest border had been completely eliminated.

"The Minister of Civil Affairs is right. I called you here to discuss matters concerning the southwest territory."

"The imperial court did not pay much attention to the Southwest Territory before, but this time the Emperor's brother sent a letter and stated the importance of the Southwest Territory. I think the same is true."

Fang Xuanling was immediately curious: "What does the Imperial Master think?"

The southwest territory is an undeveloped area and has always been so since the previous dynasty.

In the Tang Dynasty, there was still no improvement.

After all, he was busy fighting the Turks and guarding against the Tibetan forces in the Western Regions, but now he no longer has these worries.

Li Tai smiled slightly: "Brother Huang means to build a city in Nanzhao and train a naval force."

"Brother Huang's name is 'Navy'. I think Brother Huang may use Nanzhao as the cornerstone to expand to other major powers starting from the ocean!"

After Li Fei's popular science, the ministers already had a general understanding of the world.

In addition to the hard-to-explain things like "the earth is round", they already know that in addition to the Tang Empire, there are also many relatively powerful imperial forces in other places.

For example, the Persian Empire, the Byzantine Empire, the Food Kingdom...

Changsun Wuji and others' breathing stagnated.

Datang has always focused on the inland and has not had many opportunities to interact with the ocean.

However, in the Dongyang area, there are still naval forces of the Tang Dynasty, and their combat power cannot be underestimated. But now, Li Fei mentioned the project of building a navy army, which suddenly made them feel short of breath!

This Imperial Master is causing trouble again!

……

Within the territory of Nanzhao Kingdom.

"Master Imperial Advisor, all the remaining soldiers and horses of Meng Shezhao have been wiped out!"

"Before, we found some people in insect-patterned robes that the Imperial Master mentioned among the remnants of the army. We were ordered to annihilate most of them, and some of them escaped to the Harsha Dynasty with the help of... magic."

Yang Shidao looked respectful, bowed and reported the situation.

As expected, there are still many people in the Witch Gu Sect.

Li Fei nodded slightly: "How many people from the Witch Gu Sect are there?"

Yang Shidao knew a lot about this, and after thinking for a while, he said: "Before, there were many cultists in Nanzhao. This time, there are about a hundred people who fled to the territory of the Harsha Dynasty."

"These guys seem to have expected it. They cleaned up the lair and didn't even find a single Gu insect."

Did you run away early?

Li Fei sneered in his heart.

It seems that when Chang'an City concocted those Wu Gu sect cultists, the news should have been received here.

"You said they took away a lot of Gu insects?"

Suddenly, Li Fei's eyes lit up.

It seems that a breakthrough has been found.

"Yes, those Gu insects created by the Witch Gu Sect were all brought to the territory of the Harsha Dynasty..."

Yang Shidao suddenly felt a chill and said quickly.

The National Master’s smile is so captivating!

Why do you feel so cold?

……

Harsha Dynasty.

King Lisavaye's face was gloomy.

"Fifty thousand soldiers and horses were all annihilated by the opponent, and they even built a tower of human heads!"

"How could the Tang army be so powerful?"

"In the end what happened?"

Below, the ministers all bowed their heads in silence, not daring to speak.

Fifty thousand troops were killed in the Nanzhao Kingdom. It was also an extremely heavy blow to the Harsha Dynasty!

They only had an army of 400,000, and one-eighth of it was lost in an instant!

"Your Majesty, some members of the Wu Gu sect who fled from Nanzhao seem to know something about the situation."

"They are waiting outside the temple."

"Let them in!"

Lishavaye said.

After a while, two very old-looking people wearing dark red insect-patterned robes walked into the hall.

"I have met the king."

"The people who sent the Tang army to Nanzhao this time were the national advisors of the Tang Empire."

"This person is good at magic. He has killed members of our Witch Gu Sect in the Tang Dynasty before. In the previous war, this person summoned no less than 100,000 Yin soldiers to destroy our coalition forces."

An old man in insect-patterned robes spoke with a solemn expression.

"Good at magic? Summoning Yin soldiers?"

Lishavaye was stunned, but his expression didn't change much.

He also used a similar method!
