Chapter 570 Li Shimin Reigns Again
"Our capital is less than 2,000 miles away from the border of Tang. It may seem far away, but if we don't defend it, the Tang army will attack the capital in a month or two at most."

"Your Majesty, please make a good decision."

"Now it is important to ensure the safety of the empire." Dagoli also spoke immediately.

Now he is naturally in the same situation as Walker.

If they allowed the emperor in front of them to get angry, they would all die.

"Your Majesty, please consider this carefully."

"The safety of my Khanate is of primary concern."

"Everything must be done by withdrawing the Tang army first."

All the ministers of the Shihanna Kingdom in the hall stood up, and each of them had a very unhappy look on their face.

for them.

The Tang Dynasty's attack also had a great impact on their interests.

If the Tang Dynasty really attacks, the territory will be lost.

Their fiefdoms and their wealth may also vanish into thin air.

For the sake of interests, they had to stand with the emperor.

"Recruiting soldiers."

"Recruit a million soldiers from across the country for me. All men over the age of fourteen will be recruited by me." The emperor of Shihanna gave the order.

"Your Majesty the Emperor."

"If there is no one willing to follow, should we arrest them by force?" asked a minister.

"Grasp."

"You must gather a million troops for this emperor."

"The Tang army must be driven back." The Emperor of Shihana said affirmatively.

……

At a time when the Shihan Kingdom was in panic because of its military defeat, it was frantically recruiting soldiers.

But for the Tang Dynasty.

Even if they recruited more new soldiers, they would only be sent to the battlefield to die.

The 400,000 troops of the Tang Dynasty have already entered the territory of Shihanna.

They are all the elite troops of the Tang Dynasty. I am afraid that the slave army was once the elite of the three Turkic tribes. Moreover, the Tang Dynasty also has many firearms and many flintlock rifles. They are destined to be unable to resist such advanced weapons.

The border of Shihana Kingdom.

The Tang army attacked frantically.

The troops were divided into more than a dozen groups and marched quickly. They would break through any city they encountered and kill any resistance they encountered.

Today, the army of Shihan's country has been defeated. It can be said that there is not much power to stop the Tang army at this moment. Wherever the Tang army goes, there are even many nobles in the city who surrender directly.

This is also the shock brought by the Tang Dynasty's thundering means.

Those who resist will be killed, those who surrender will live.

Now that they have invaded other countries, they must be given a chance to survive. If they are pushed too far, many people will resist. Li Zheng is naturally not that stupid.

In the territory of Shihanna Kingdom, in a city conquered by the Tang Dynasty.

Li Zheng sat in the main seat in the City Lord's Mansion.

"emperor."

"I just received the military reports from the generals."

“In just ten days.”

"Many cities in Shihan's country have been conquered by our Tang Dynasty, and we encountered almost no resistance."

"All the generals are asking the emperor what the next step will be?" Li Ke said excitedly to Li Zheng.

"You already know the location of Shihan's country's capital, right?" Li Zheng said in a deep voice.

"Return to the Emperor."

"Already know."

"It's only two or three thousand miles away from the border. If our army is fast, we can reach its capital in three months at the latest." Li Ke said immediately.

A country's capital is its foundation.

Many countries set up their capitals in the safest places, even in the center of the border, so as to avoid being quickly attacked by foreign enemies.

Once the capital was destroyed, the impact would be enormous.

Not only will the entire country be in danger of collapse, but morale will also be greatly damaged and the country will be destroyed.

There are many such examples in Chinese history.

The same is true for the Shihan Kingdom. The land in the northern border, like the grassland and desert, is basically flat and vast.

There is no defense at all.

so.

The Tang Dynasty's cavalry attacked all the way, and they also had the Shenwu cannon to break through the gates and clear the way. How could the Shihanna Kingdom, which had lost hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers, resist?

"Preach my will."

"With the capital of Shihana as the center, all the troops can only attack and eventually surround the capital of Shihana."

"The Shihan Kingdom is now unable to resist the military might of the Tang Dynasty. It is impossible to recruit troops in a short period of time. I will take this opportunity to attack as quickly as possible and annex as many territories and cities as possible."

"Methods, I don't care."

"I will only give you three months."

"Three months later, we will surround the capital of Shihana."

"I have delegated power to all the generals and will not restrict them, but they must repay me and the Tang Dynasty with results."

"If that army does not reach the capital of Shihana after three months, they will be severely punished."

"This is my will."

Li Zheng said sternly.

It has come to this.

There are no more strategies or tactics. The key is to fight fast with speed.

Taking advantage of the fact that Shi Han's country is severely damaged, while they have no troops to mobilize, while they cannot raise defensive forces, and while their reserve forces have not been mobilized.

Embed them as much as possible, defeat them as much as possible.

This is the biggest strategy.

"I will convey your order immediately."

Li Ke replied loudly.

the other side.

Chang'an City.

Inside the Tai Chi Hall.

After Li Zheng went on the expedition and left Chang'an City.

Li Shimin had no choice but to take the throne again.

"Please report to the Emperor."

"The new capital has been built. The palace, inner city, and all facilities have been completed. There are only some minor things that need to be repaired."

"With this decree, the court can move."

"Please give instructions, Your Majesty."

Kaiji stood up and started playing loudly.

"Go! Go! Go."

"This decision should be made by your emperor who likes to fight. I am fine in Chang'an. Wait for your emperor to come back from the war and let him make the decision."

Hear about what happened in Xindu.

Li Shimin said unhappily.

Li Shimin felt helpless when he thought of his troublesome son who was always thinking about going to the battlefield.

He had already abdicated, but he was brought to the Tai Chi Hall again.

Hear Li Shimin's words.

Many ministers in the court couldn't help laughing.

"In Jingzhou Prefecture, the naval commander General Li Kan sent back a military report."

The 100,000-man navy has been fully trained.”

"We can fight for the Tang Dynasty at any time."

Zheng Xuan also stood up and spoke.

"Let them continue to train, and let your emperor decide when they are needed."

"Now my Tang Dynasty has already started a war in the northern border, mobilizing more than 400,000 troops and 300,000 to 400,000 slaves. With such huge manpower and material resources, I dare not open up another front line." Li Shimin said in a deep voice.

When the navy was being formed, Li Zheng told Li Shimin that once the navy was trained, the first target would be Japan. Li Zheng also said that Japan would harm the foundation of the Tang Dynasty, so Zhu Yuanzhang naturally believed it.

However, the country that the Tang Dynasty is attacking now is a big country like the Shihan Khanate, whose national strength is greater than the three former Turkic tribes combined, so naturally it must be treated with more caution.
