My servant in the Tang Dynasty is Li Shimin

Chapter 253 The Horror of the Situation!
"Fu Yun seized on the opportunity that Your Majesty is not in Chang'an City, and directly caught us by surprise!"

After finishing speaking, Li Jing immediately retreated, leaving only Li Shimin in place, in a daze.

At this time, Li Er's mind was full of turbulent waves!
Taking advantage of Li Shimin's absence in Chang'an and being unable to preside over the overall situation, he directly raided Datang.

This is the most commonly used strategy in the art of war, and its essence is the grasp of fighter opportunities.

Li Shimin is no stranger to this, because he himself is a master of the art of war.

His title of Admiral Tiance wasn't something he boasted about, but something he did for real!
But it was because he knew too well that Li Shimin felt so horrified, even horrified!
This raid strategy has a premise that cannot be ignored.

A premise beyond compare!

That's why Tuyuhun knew that Li Shimin was not in Chang'an City?

why! ?

why! ! ? ?

Li Shimin didn't dare to think about it at all, it was too scary.

Just thinking about it for a moment, he felt that his spirit was about to split!

In a daze, he seemed to have returned to that icy and biting Tai Chi Hall, back to the time when he had countless nightmares.

His father, Emperor Li Yuan, was on the throne and turned a blind eye to everything.

And his elder brother Li Jiancheng stood in front of him, supported by many ministers of the family, with an undisguised killing intent in his eyes!
He is really too much.

It's too much of an eyesore.

"Pharmacist, do you have clear evidence?"

"Why do you make such a guess?"

Li Shimin looked at Li Jing dully, his tone full of bewilderment.

"why?"

"Your Majesty, the minister said it before, without any evidence."

Li Jing shook his head and sighed, he didn't know whether his guess was right or wrong.

The current His Majesty is obviously completely upset, and even completely forgot what he said before.

"Then why do you say that!"

Li Shimin was jealous, stepped forward and grabbed Li Jing's clothes, and roared:
"You don't have any evidence, why do you say such a thing!"

"Because I am a general!"

Li Jing was no longer confused at this time, and directly looked at Li Shimin, his eyes did not back down.

"Because I am the Army God of the Tang Dynasty!"

"I never cared about the evidence, I only saw the result and the process!"

"The result now is that as soon as you left Chang'an City, the Allied Forces of the Three Kingdoms raided Liangzhou, causing Liangzhou to bleed like a river!"

"If it weren't for the heroic resistance of the frontline soldiers, even dozens of surrounding counties would suffer the same fate!"

"Your Majesty, don't tell me, you can't see anything?"

"If you really can't see, don't notice anything, then I will be very disappointed!"

flutter!
Li Shimin let go of Li Jing, his eyes darkened, and he staggered back.

"Don't say anything, don't say anything."

"This fourth reason is simply too ridiculous!"

"Okay then, sir."

Li Jing breathed a sigh of relief, and apologized with complicated emotions:
"Your Majesty, what I said just now is just nonsense, please don't be offended."

"Okay, it's okay, let's get back to the topic."

Li Shimin also breathed a sigh of relief, regained his composure, and sat on the chair.

Of course, whether he really calmed down in his heart, I am afraid that only Li Shimin himself knows.

"This battle is really fought."

"Just the Tubo remnant army is already terrifying, let alone Tuyuhun and Xue Yantuo."

Li Shimin sighed, although he escaped from the painful topic, he returned to the original starting point.

And this starting point is still full of pain.

"And that Fu Yun is definitely not an ordinary person!"

Although it was effortless before the Tang Dynasty, Tubo was completely destroyed.

But that was mainly because Wang Yuan's plan of "extinct household" took effect.

When the Tang army had not fully attacked, Tubo killed himself so much that his blood flowed all over the ground because of religious disputes.

Rather than saying that the Tang Dynasty destroyed Tubo, it is better to say that Tubo destroyed itself.

In fact, among the countries bordering the Tang Dynasty, Tubo was really powerful, second only to Western Turks, the overlord of the Silk Road.

The reason why Western Turks are so terrifying is because it has mastered the entire Silk Road.

Whether it is Dashi or Datang, merchants need to pay terrible taxes to Western Turks.

Generally speaking, the affluence of grassland grazing civilization is far inferior to that of farming civilization. After all, farming is the greatest use of a piece of land.

However, the Western Turks are an exception. Relying on the Silk Road, it has become an extremely rich, powerful, and extremely warlike super empire!

Among the grassland countries, Western Turks are an unprecedented outlier!
Tubo can be second only to Western Turks, one can imagine how terrifying the national power is.

If it is a normal battle, not to mention a [-]-[-] match with Datang, at least there is a [-]-[-] chance of winning.

And even if Datang wins, he is basically not sure that he will be able to hit the snowy plateau.

Since those Tubo defeated troops dared to make a comeback, no matter for any reason, it meant that they had completely given up their differences and planned to fight Datang to the death.

Not to mention Fu Yun, no matter what kind of thoughts he has, he wants to attack Datang.

There is no doubt that he is definitely a ruthless person!
A lunatic who dared to put all his cards on the table!

"Your Majesty, there should be the latest news from the front line, but there is no news from Chang'an yet."

Li Jing was also thinking, with a headache and said:

"There are three main problems now. The first one is that the enemy troops who invaded this time are all cavalry. The heavy Hongyi cannon can't be aimed at all, so we can only choose short-handed combat."

"Secondly, spring plowing is about to start now, and we, Tang Dynasty, cannot immediately summon a large number of troops. Once we do, we will give up spring plowing."

"Even if we start to call up the army now, it will take at least a month, and they will be recruited batch by batch."

"The third question is the most important question."

"That's why our Great Tang is short of war horses, especially excellent war horses!"

"Although His Royal Highness opened a racecourse in Yuhang, the far water still cannot save the near fire."

"If my Great Tang didn't have enough superior war horses, then in the battle with the 25 cavalry, I would definitely be defeated everywhere."

"And once they are cornered and 25 cavalrymen start to scatter and plunder, it will be tantamount to a catastrophe for the people of Tang Dynasty."

"Then..."

Li Shimin followed Li Jing's train of thought.

"Is the only thing we can do now is procrastinate?"

"That's right!"

Li Jing nodded:

"Either desperately, give up spring plowing, and also give up the horse farm that has just started, and kill it with a single blow."

"Either drag it on slowly, or at the very least trap them to death in Liangzhou!"

"The former will cost me at least three years of development in Datang, and the latter will make life in Liangzhou miserable."

"Other than that, we have nothing else to do."

"Of course, Prince Wang may have a better way, why not"

"Okay, I understand."

"Actually, we haven't fully figured out this war yet. If we go to the big dog like this, I'm afraid it's embarrassing him."

Li Shimin held his forehead with one hand and interrupted:

"Start recruiting troops now, and send people to bring back all the horses that were transported to Yuhang."

"Three years is three years, human life is more important than everything else!"

"We did what we could do first."

"it is good!"

Li Jing nodded heavily, looking at Li Shimin with increasingly complicated eyes.

In fact, his impression of Li Shimin has always been that he is ruthless.

After all, this is an emperor who murdered brothers and brothers, and as Tiance Admiral, the blood stained on his hands is countless.

This current attitude of loving the people like a child, whether it is real or pretended, is worthy of Li Jing's admiration.

Even if it was pretending, as long as Li Shimin was willing to pretend for the rest of his life, it would be true.

"The minister will implement it now, and strive to bring the first batch of troops to support Liangzhou within ten days."

Li Jing saluted and was about to say goodbye and leave.

At this time, he was really grateful to Wang Yuan.

If it weren't for the sweet potatoes and genetic rice brought by Wang Yuan, it would be absolutely impossible for Datang to give up spring plowing.

Because once you give up, it will be an unprecedented famine!
And now, although he will still be hungry, it is only returning to the state a year ago.

But just as he turned around, Li Shimin suddenly raised his head and stopped him again.

"Don't worry, the army can go first, but you don't have to go there yourself."

"You stay here first, and wait for news from the front line with me."

At the end, a gleam flashed in Li Shimin's eyes.

"This battle...is definitely not as simple as it appears on the surface!"

"After the news is completely confirmed, we will go to Lantian County together."

"As ordered!"

Li Jing nodded his head and left completely.

His Majesty's arrangement is also in line with his wishes.

He also wanted to hear what Prince Wang thinks about this matter, and what strategy he has.

After Li Jing left, Li Shimin was silent for a while, and instead of staying in the imperial study, he went outside.

He looked at the sky for a long, long time, until the sun went down before he reluctantly turned and left.

After he left, he didn't go to Lizheng Hall, nor did he go to Concubine Yang.

Instead, he found his father - Li Yuan.

"Father, can you have a drink with me?"

Li Shimin looked at Li Yuan, Li Yuan was stunned for several seconds, then nodded with a smile.

"Yes, Erlang!"

That night, the father and son drank the whole night.
