Signing in to Datang: Rebellion at the beginning

Chapter 104 Li Er blames himself
Generally speaking, not every city has a large number of garrisons.

For some cities, one or two thousand defenders are enough. Only some important places and remote places will have a certain number of garrisons.

Following Li Ke's order, several generals immediately led their troops to the nearest cities of the Tang Kingdom.

In one day, several generals took two cities each.

Then several groups of soldiers and horses continued to go west.

Li Ke himself took the rest of the army and headed west all the way. Wherever he passed, whenever he encountered a city, he easily captured it.

Including the next few days, the army went all the way west, and took almost one-third of the city of Tang Kingdom into their hands.

At this time, the news reached Tang.

At this time, Li Er got the news that Zhang Liang had lost.

In the Chang'an Palace of the Tang Dynasty, the Lizheng Hall.

Li Er was furious.

"A 25 army, plus 15 Tubo army, still lost. What happened recently? A full 40 army, can't you still win?"

Below, a minister said with an ugly face:
"Your Majesty, not only did we lose this time, but our 10,000+ army of the Tang Kingdom also became prisoners."

As soon as these words came out, Li Ke's face became even more gloomy.

Then he said, "What about the 15 Tubo army?"

The minister hesitated and said: "The Tubo army of more than [-] people saw that the situation was not good, and felt that there was no way to defeat them, so they retreated early.

General Zhang Liang wanted to protect the safety of the remaining soldiers.So he proposed to fight Li Ke one-on-one, and finally lost, but he was unwilling to surrender, so he committed suicide. "

Li Er slammed the table and roared:

"You bastard, you bastard! These Tubo soldiers actually retreated before the battle? I really believed them, and passed on my oral order to question Tubo."

Li Er was really angry this time, and finally came up with a brilliant plan, which turned out to be such a result.

He lost more than 20 troops in vain.

This made the already tense Tang State even worse.

Li Er kept taking deep breaths, and after suppressing the anger in his heart, he knew that he had lost a total of 50 million troops on Longguo's side including the captured soldiers.

Now, except for some soldiers guarding various places, there are almost no soldiers that Tang can use to deal with Dragon.

And the garrisons in the surrounding areas add up to only more than 30. It seems a bit daunting to use these soldiers to fight against the Dragon Kingdom.

Although Li Er had already reacted, Li Ke was gradually consuming his power.

It may be because this time, he lost a lot, and the strength of Tang State has been gradually consumed.

Up to now, the only way to fight with Li Ke is to use the power of the whole country, or negotiate a peace!
But it would be tantamount to fantasy if Li Er and Li Ke negotiate peace.

Whether it is Li Ke to Li Er, or Li Er to Li Ke, the hatred between them has reached the point where it cannot be resolved.

It is indeed a dream come true for both of them to reach a reconciliation.

But if there is no reconciliation now, the Tang State will hardly have any strength to fight the Long State.

If all the soldiers were gathered together, then the Tang Kingdom would not only be facing an enemy like the Dragon Kingdom, but after fighting the Dragon Kingdom, the border of the Tang Kingdom would be quickly occupied by Tubo, Turks, and Tuyuhun!

At this time, Li Er clearly understood that if he became an enemy with Li Ke again, Tang State might really be destroyed.

Because even if he fought back with all his strength in the end, winning this battle would be the end of his strength.

At that time, Tuyuhun, Tubo and Turkic enemies, who have been eyeing it for a long time, will reap the benefits of the fisherman.

At that time, Tang Guo, even if he won, would definitely not have the strength to face these powerful enemies again.

And if you lose, let alone.

Just when Li Er was struggling with how to deal with this crisis, some urgent news came from the front line.

"Eight hundred miles in a hurry..."

Outside the hall, the voice of a herald sounded, and then he ran in, knelt down on one knee, gasped and said to Li Er:

"I report to Your Majesty, under the attack of the Dragon Kingdom's troops, the frontier gate lost four cities in one day..."

Li Er suddenly stood up and said, "What? Is this serious?"

The soldier raised his head and said: "The army of the Dragon Kingdom is still advancing. I think it is already attacking other cities at this time. Please make a decision quickly, Your Majesty."

Li Er's body was slumped on the dragon chair.

Down below, the ministers were also whispering to each other, extremely worried.

After trying to calm down, Li Er stood up again, and said to the ministers solemnly:

"Dear dears, the Dragon Kingdom is approaching menacingly, and now our Tang Kingdom has no more troops to fight against. Ladies and gentlemen, is there any good way to deal with this storm?"

At this time, he was somewhat decadent, and there was a hint of submissiveness in his words.

The ministers also understood that Li Er was really driven to a desperate situation, so they all began to think about how to deal with it.

However, everyone thought hard, but there was no way to alleviate this turmoil.

Seeing that no one has come up with a plan for a long time, Li Er also knows that this situation is difficult to solve.
