Tuli heard Jieli's words and shouted: "No matter who they sent to help Weize Pass, they are all vulnerable to our 200,000 Turkic army. As long as we put all our troops and horses into the battlefield, we will definitely win."
Go down to Weize Pass."
Jie Li ignored Tu Li, but looked at Liang Shidu, wanting to hear what Liang Shidu thought.
Master Liang thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Khan's worry is not unreasonable."
After being partially restrained by Liu Heitai, Li Tang's troops and horses in Weize Pass were still able to show strong combat effectiveness, which far exceeded their expectations.
With the existing troops and horses in Weize Pass, it is impossible to do this.
With Li Yuanji's reputation and ability, even if he led his troops to rescue Weize Pass, he would not be able to do this.
Therefore, Master Liang felt that Jie Li's guess might be correct. In addition to sending Li Yuanji to assist Weize Pass, Li Shimin also sent other people.
Jie Li looked at Master Liang and said, "Then what do you think we should do?"
Tu Li was a little unhappy when he saw that Jie Li only listened to Liang Shidu and not him, "What can he do?"
Master Liang glanced at Tuli, looked at Jieli and said, "What does Khan think?"
Jieli pondered for a moment, and then said with a slight expression on his face: "That bitch in Tudiji was born to be a slave. When Yang Sui was still there, he bowed to Yang Sui. After Yang Sui died, he turned to Li
Tang bowed his head and proclaimed himself a minister.
Originally, I wanted to use Li Tang's Peking Commander Prince Gao to open a gap from Youzhou and send some troops south from Youzhou to attract some of the Tang army's attention for us.
But Tu Diji first helped Li Tang defeat Liu Heitai's troops in Dingzhou, and then defended Youzhou stubbornly after Gao Kaidao rebelled against Li Tang.
It's so bad that we can't send troops south from Youzhou.
During this period, Li Tang frequently sent more troops to Shizhou, and we had no way to go south from Shizhou.
Weizeguan has the smallest number of Tang troops and is the weakest. It is the only place where we can go south.
So we must take Weize Pass."
What Jie Li originally wanted to do was to use the Turks to have enough soldiers and horses to attack the Central Plains from three places: Shizhou, Weizeguan, and Youzhou.
Among them, Liang Shidu and Tu Li led their armies to attract Li Tang's troops in Shizhou and Youzhou respectively, and he led his army to advance from Weze Pass.
As long as he breaks Weize Pass, Li Tang's troops deployed in Shizhou will have to rush to help Weize Pass, and the Liang division will be able to move south smoothly.
Once Liang Shidu goes south, he can cooperate with him to seize more places in the Central Plains, disrupt the Central Plains that Li Tang finally stabilized, and create more opportunities for Liu Heitai.
Unfortunately, Liu Heitai was defeated so quickly that he was caught off guard.
Liu Heitai was defeated before Tuli and Gao Kaidao could join forces and attack Youzhou together.
When Gao Kaidao saw Liu Heitai's defeat, he was afraid that the Tang people would find out that he had ulterior motives and punish him, so he rebelled against Li Tang before Tu Li arrived.
The people of the Tang Dynasty seemed to have expected it. The moment Gao Kaidao rebelled against the Tang Dynasty, they surrounded Gao Kaidao and beat him violently, which made Gao Kaidao dizzy.
Gao Kaidao finally escaped from the siege of the Tang Dynasty. After joining forces with Ye Hu (an official position of the Turks) under Tu Li, he prepared to enter Youzhou again.
He was beaten severely by Tu Diji, who had just driven back to Youzhou, and was beaten to a rout.
Tu Diji had only a thousand tent men under his command, and less than 1,500 Mohe soldiers under his command. He chased Gao Kaidao and Tu Li's Naran Yehu's tens of thousands of people, killing them along the way.
Leaving Youzhou.
Seeing this, he could only recall Tu Li who was still on the way.
Gao Kaidao did not cause chaos in Youzhou, and Naran Yehu under Tu Li also had no effect. Let Tu Li go to Youzhou again, except for being defeated, it would not have much effect.
Although Tu Li had many soldiers and horses under his command, Li Tang's soldiers and horses in Youzhou were not vegetarians.
Moreover, Liu Heitai was defeated, and Li Yi, who went to help Li Shimin conquer Liu Heitai, was able to lead his army back to Youzhou.
As long as the people left behind by Tu Diji and Li Yi hold off Tu Li's troops until Li Yi leads his army back, Tu Li will not only be defeated, but may also risk a major defeat, so he can only give up on Youzhou.
During this period, Li Tang frequently sent more troops to Shizhou and even activated Li Xiuning, who had been hiding for more than four years. As soon as Li Xiuning arrived in Shizhou, Liang Shidu and his Teller Rehan suffered a big loss.
"God's Coming"
With Li Xiuning here, and Li Xiuning having a large number of soldiers and horses in his hands, with the few soldiers and horses Liang Shidu had in his hands, even with the help of his Teller Rehan, he could not attack Shizhou.
So he had to abandon Shizhou, let his Teller Rehan lead a group of soldiers and horses to act as suspects in Shizhou, and summoned all the Liang divisions here.
Right now, he only has Weize Pass as a place where he can go south, so he must make every effort to break through Weize Pass.
After listening to Jie Liyitong's analysis, Master Liang didn't know what to say.
Jie Li seemed to have said a lot, but in fact he said nothing.
What is being discussed now is how to capture Weize Pass, rather than why the Turks gave up their battlefields in Shizhou and Youzhou and attacked Weize Pass with all their strength.
Jieli obviously had no idea other than attacking, but he couldn't show that he had no idea, so he said a lot of nonsense that seemed valuable but was actually useless.
"Then... according to Tuli Khan's wishes, put all the troops up and attack Weize Pass?"
Liang Shidu had no other choice but to express his agreement with Tuli Khan.
In this way, not only can he deal with Jieli, but he can also secretly support Tuli Khan.
Although Tuli couldn't stand him, he knew that everything he had now was all because of the support of the Turks, so it was not easy for him to offend Tuli.
Tu Li raised the corner of his mouth slightly. It was obvious that he was secretly admired by Master Yong Liang, but he said unforgivingly, "I thought you, a smart man, could come up with any good ideas..."
Tuli places a heavy emphasis on the word "smart".
Master Liang said nothing but a bitter smile in his heart.
Jie Li frowned slightly, obviously a little dissatisfied, but he thought about it for a moment and understood that Master Liang was afraid that he wouldn't be able to come up with any good solution to the current situation, so he said slowly: "Then let's
All troops and horses should be mobilized."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Tu Li suddenly stood up, excitedly preparing to mobilize his troops.
Jie Li waved his hand to indicate that he was not in a hurry.
Jie Li looked at Liang Shidu and said with a smile: "Send all the troops and horses to the battlefield. The required arrows are missing, and there are many ordnances.
We have to rely on our generosity, Vega Khan."
When Tu Li heard this, he gave Master Liang a rare good look, "Prepare more arrows for me. The men under my command are all very skilled in archery. If there are enough arrows, they will definitely kill the Tang army."
Throw away your armor."
Master Liang complained secretly in his heart that there were not many good craftsmen among the Turks, and there were not so many iron materials.
Therefore, even if the Turks like many weapons and ordnances of the Han people, some of them cannot be made, and those that can be made cannot be mass-produced.
After he surrendered to the Turks, the Turks were able to use him to forge some things that could not be made, and to mass-produce some things that consumed a lot of money.
But after the Turks got him, they didn't bother to make them and just used him as a head craftsman who forged weapons and ordnance in batches.
Ask him for whatever you need, and let him prepare whatever you need.
The trebuchets, siege chisels, siege crossbows and other large-scale ordnance used by the Turks to attack Weize Pass this time were all forged in batches by his men.
The various arrows used by the Turks in their attack on Weze Pass were also made by his men.
Even the boulders used in the trebuchets were chiseled by his men.
The Turks took advantage of him to provide weapons, large-scale ordnance, and various other things for free, and went to Weize Pass to greet him.
Half of the expendable items such as arrows and crossbows he brought had been consumed.
Now that the Turks want to send all their soldiers and horses to the Weizeguan battlefield, the amount of arrows, crossbows and other items consumed will probably increase exponentially.
Later, the Turks broke through Weize Pass and had to ask him for more arrows, crossbows and other items.
Where can he find it for the Turks then?
In order to produce enough large-scale ordnance, arrows, crossbows and other items for the Turks, he has almost exhausted all areas of Shuofang.
When Jie Li saw Master Liang's face was solemn and silent, he guessed what Master Liang was thinking and immediately said: "Today, tomorrow, and for the next three years, the money and food you have to pay tribute will be waived for you."
Jie Li also had an idea of how much manpower and material resources Master Liang had.
The reason why he pays attention to this is because he doesn't want Master Liang to become too strong and threaten him.
Once Liang Shidu's strength has a tendency to skyrocket, he will try his best to weaken Liang Shidu's strength.
Once Liang Shidu's strength is too weak, he will also help Liang Shidu appropriately.
Although he didn't want Master Liang to be too strong and threaten him, he also didn't want Master Liang to be too weak to help him.
When Master Liang heard what Jie Li said, his face looked much better, but he did not speak.
Jieli exempted him from the "Sui Gong" for three years. Although it could restore his health, it could not solve the urgent needs that would arise later.
"Liang Shidu, don't be ignorant of praise. Don't forget who is supporting you behind the scenes. Who made you the emperor of the Han people. I asked you to take some arrows and miss them, but you resisted. You let us do it in the future
How can I support you?"
Tu Li glared and said rudely to Master Liang.
Tu Li is not Jie Li. He will not look down upon Master Liang, nor does he care about Master Liang's difficulties.
If Master Liang doesn't give him anything he wants, or doesn't give him enough, that means Master Liang doesn't know how to praise him.
Jieli glanced at Tuli, but did not reprimand him.
Tu Lihun is a little confused, but he can help him say things that are inconvenient for him at critical moments.
"Khan, half of the arrows prepared for this time have been consumed. If we continue to consume them at a high rate, even if we break through Weize Pass and advance into the Central Plains, there will not be many arrows left to use.
If the Turkic warriors had no arrows to use, it would be difficult for them to demonstrate their majesty in the Central Plains."
Master Liang said with a grimace.
"Then why don't you prepare more?!"
Tuli asked.
Jieli glanced at Tuli thoughtfully, "Shibo must not be rude."
Tuli snorted and said no more.
Jie Li looked at Master Liang and said, "10% of what I got from this trip south can be given to you."
After saying this, Jieli emphasized: "Only 10%!"
