Just now, Li Shimin received a secret message from Dingxiang City, detailing the news about Dingxiang City. This is why Li Shimin warned Zheng Rentai like this.

Unexpectedly, the Western Turks were so powerful that Li Jing was forced to defend Dingxiang City passively.

Of course, Li Shimin also knew that Li Jing did not use wooden lumps and artillery like Luo Zhang, so it would be difficult to defend.

The letter stated that Li Shimin agreed with Li Jing's tactics.

Dingxiang City is different from Yumen Pass, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Li Jing's view of this battle is a war of attrition, dragging the enemy back and not being able to leave the city to meet the enemy. Like the East Turks, most of the Western Turks are cavalry. Outside the city, they compete with the Western Turks.

Fighting is tantamount to using one's own shortcomings to compete with the enemy's strong points. This is unwise!

Therefore, Li Jing's tactics are wise. For the time being, he can only defend and cannot fight head-on!

In addition, the previous reception of refugees had delayed a lot of time and delayed the fighter plane. As a result, Li Jing did not have many options at his disposal.

Asking Zheng Rentai to bring 150,000 troops, I think it will be enough for Li Jing to display his talents.

Li Jingneng was named the God of War, not because of his fame but because of his real qualities!

As for Luo Zhang, he is a freak and cannot be compared with him at all.

And giving Luo Zhang 100,000 troops was also enough for Luo Zhang to plot against the Tubo people.

These two wars were too sudden and too violent. If the Tang Dynasty was not much stronger now and feared the Yumen Pass, Dingxiang City would have been captured by the Tibetans and Western Turks.

You must know that it is easy to gather an army, but it is not so easy to prepare food and grass.

In the past, troops were sent to attack the Eastern Turks and Gaoguli, but they all had to wait for a long time just to gather food and fodder.

Now, the granary has been filled with grain and grass. There are potatoes piled high, there is also a lot of corn, and there is also a lot of flour made from potatoes. These are all grains.

The rations for the march are more than enough, so the most difficult thing has been solved, and there is no need to worry about sending troops!

The night is always so short. When the sun rises, both the soldiers in Dingxiang City and the soldiers in Yumen Pass get up early, eat breakfast, and are ready to deal with the enemy's attack at any time.

Li Jing also got up early, or he didn't sleep at all last night. He kept looking at the map and thinking of solutions.

Unlike Li Jing, although Luo Zhang got up, he actually went to sleep. After all, the pressure here was much less.

Although there were only 40,000 troops and he had to face several times the number of Tibetans, Luo Zhang did not panic at all.

On a slope one mile away from the Tubo camp, Lu Dongzan and his cronies were standing here observing the situation in the Tubo camp.

Meng Tu had taken away his power, so how could Lu Dongzan be willing to do so! Naturally, he was trying to find a way to get his power back.

If he returns to Tubo like this, he will have to be skinned even if he doesn't die. You must know that he was the one who started this war and he was the one who was defeated. If he goes back like this, those big landowners and gentry will definitely have to attack him. After all, these Tubo soldiers can

It does not belong to Songtsen Gampo, but to the private property of those big landowners and gentry!

The death of so many people means that these big landowners and gentry have lost a lot of money. This money is lost because Lu Dongzan has lost it, so Lu Dongzan will naturally have to compensate.

The only way to solve this problem is for him to win a big victory, capture Yumen Pass, and fight to the middle of the pass.

If the big landowners and gentry gain huge amounts of wealth, no matter how many people die, they won't say anything.

"Prime Minister, we have just inquired about it. Meng Tu is going to lead the army to attack Yumen Pass. If we capture the camp while he is leaving the camp, we still have a chance to control the army!" A close aide suggested.

Lu Dongzan squinted at the Tibetans who were constantly moving around in the camp below, and nodded, agreeing with what his confidant said.

Seize the camp and control the camp, especially the food and grass. Without food and grass, the army and horses will starve to death. If you don't want to starve to death, you have to obey his orders. This is the real reason why Lu Dongzan is preparing to attack the camp.
