Chapter 331 Attack
Not long after Qiao Baoming and Ashina's group left Yaochi Dudu's Mansion, Liang Jianfang and others claimed that the envoy of the Tang Dynasty, Qiao Baoming, was attacked by Ashina's department, and his life and death were uncertain.

Liang Jianfang specifically requested that the governor of Yaochi, Ashina Helu, go back to the capital with them and explain clearly to the emperor face to face.

And allowed them to enter the city to search for the murderer. After all, someone discovered that the group of gangsters who dared to attack the envoys of the Tang Dynasty had entered the city of Yaochi Dudu's Mansion.

Ashina Helu naturally couldn't agree to this rude request, and rejected Liang Jianfang's proposal without hesitation.

He didn't agree with them entering the city to search for them, and he didn't agree with him going to Chang'an to meet the emperor with them. He was afraid that he would never return.

All the work done before that will be in vain.

Liang Jianfang, Qili Why bother and others immediately sent troops to attack Ashina Helu.

Ashina Helu hastily issued an order to the ten Turks to come and join together to besiege the Tang-Hui coalition forces led by Liang Jianfang.

For this battle, Luo Hongyi, the governor of Tingzhou, also went to Li Chengqian to offer advice on the crusade against Ashina Helu.

Luo Hongyi said in the memorandum: "To appease the Central Plains, you need to use trust, and to control the barbarians, you need to use power. Now Ashina Helu is not ready enough, and the ministries have not yet fully surrendered to Ashina Helu."

"Chumi, Chumukun and other tribes may not be willing to work for Ashina Helu. Seeing that the Tang army is strong, they will definitely stand by and watch."

"Now is a great time to exterminate Ashina Helu. It is recommended to forgive Chuyue, Chumi and other ministries, and specifically punish Helu. To eliminate disasters, we must eradicate the roots, not the branches first."

"Please mobilize the soldiers from the departments of Launch Pi, Chuyue, Chumi, Qibi, etc., and bring food and grass for a full month, and march quickly to attack Helu."

"Our army responded by relying on Luoshui to rescue them. This is a strategy to drive the Rong and Di to attack the wolves. Besides, the Rong people borrowed our army as their wings and let the Hu ride in front, while our army is responsible for breaking the rear. Ashina Helu There is no escape."

In addition to these words, in order to get Li Chengqian's attention, Luo Hongyi attached a battle plan and submitted it to Li Chengqian together with the memorial.

After Li Chengqian looked at it, he threw it aside. Li Chengqian understood that Luo Hongyi's so-called strategy was useless at all.

In addition to the tribes of the ten surnames, the Turks also have Chuyue, Chumi, and some small countries in the Western Regions who are secretly supporting Ashina Helu. They will definitely not take refuge in the Tang Dynasty, but instead attack Ashina Helu.

As long as Ashina Heludeng shouts, these people are likely to rebel, and at that time, it will be Datang who will suffer.

The best way is to get rid of these tribes immediately, and when Ashina Helu reacts, it will be too late.

The Tang court, which had expected this result, had already made preparations. After Liang Jianfang came to Mobei, he immediately sent someone to invite Zhu Xiegu, the leader of the Department of the Moon, to make an injection.

And at the banquet, Zhu Xieguzhu and others were killed together, and then completely controlled the situation of the Chuyue Department, and re-elected a person with high prestige and loyalty to Datang to be the leader of the Chuyue Department.

The sad Zhu Xieguzhu didn't expect that he was going to the Hongmen Banquet. He thought he was just going to have a meal, but he didn't expect to be ordered to eat it all.

Zhu Xiegu did not expect that Liang Jianfang would dare to throw a grand banquet for him on his territory in the Yuebu, and was beheaded by Liang Jianfang without any preparation.

Li Chengqian also issued an edict to let Lu Guogong Cheng Yaojin be the general manager of the Congshan Road march, and lead the generals to crusade against Ashina Helu.

Appoint Su Dingfang as the general manager of the Yili Road March, and lead Yanran Duhu Ren Yaxiang, Deputy Duhu Xiao Siye, Zuo Xiaowei General Hanhai Dudu Huihe Porun, etc. to join the crusade against Ashina Helu.

He also ordered the Generals of the Right Tunwei, Ashina Mishe, and the Zuotunwei, Ashina Buzhen, to be the peace ambassadors of the Quicksand Road, to go out of the Jinshan Road separately, and to encircle Ashina Helu together.

They also chased and intercepted Chumi and Turkic ten surnames to buy enough time for General Qibi Heli and others to exterminate Ashina Helu.

A fierce siege battle is going on on the city wall where the Governor's Mansion of Yaochi is located.

Because the Turkic army was not prepared enough, and did not expect the Tang army to launch a sudden attack, they were caught off guard by the army led by Liang Jianfang.

Under Liang Jianfang's calculation and surprise attack, the Tang army quickly attacked the city and started fighting with the Turkic army.

The Turkic army retreated steadily, had to shrink the line of defense, and moved closer to the Yamen of the Governor's Mansion in Yaochi, hoping to hold back the Tang army with the last resistance, waiting for the rescue of the troops of various tribes.

The Tang army's attack was extremely ferocious, and they did not give them any chance to breathe. According to this progress, Ashina Helu could not wait for the arrival of reinforcements, and the entire army would be wiped out here.

"Khan! The Tang army and the Uyghur army are attacking fiercely. We can hardly resist! Please Khan break out immediately, and I will protect Khan to fight a bloody path." A Turkic general saluted.

"Bastard, you dare to shake the morale of the army. Believe it or not, I can kill you right now." Ashina Helu roared angrily, as if he was about to draw his sword and kill the general.

"Khan, don't do it! Now that the enemy is facing the enemy, it is time to employ people. If we keep him, we can have more strength, and we will have a little more ability to resist the Tang army." A general hugged Ah Sina Heru said.

"Hmph!" Ashina Helu snorted coldly, and said, "I will spare your life this time, if you dare to shake the morale of our army again, I will definitely not forgive you lightly."

"Thank you Khan for not killing him!" the general said, and retreated.

"The Tang army is coming fiercely. What should we do now? When will the troops from Wudulu and Wunushibi, as well as Chuyue and Chumi, arrive?" Ashina Helu asked.

"I'm afraid they won't be able to come!" said the general in charge of intelligence.

"What? Can't come? Why is this? Don't they want to come to rescue Ben Khan?" Ashina Helu roared.

Without the assistance of these tribal armies, how could he continue to fight against Datang's army based on his strength alone.

Without the reinforcements from the various tribes, with his little force of Ashina Helu, he would just surrender.

"Khan, since the reinforcements from various tribes could not come to the rescue, Khan broke through immediately and headed westward to capture the old land of Khan Yipidulu, and built Yating in Qianquan."

"Then, let's gather up the remnants. Maybe we still have a chance to fight the Tang army to the end. It's hard to say who will be the master of Mobei at that time." A fat general said.

"That's the only way to go! Rangga failed to block the Tang army, and He Reasonable led his troops to break through with Ben Khan." Ashina Helu said.

"Obey!" The generals took the order, and He Reasonably led the soldiers and horses of the headquarters to guard Ashina Helu to break out of the encirclement, and the others stayed behind.
