Seeing that the princess was happy, Qin Wenyuan waved to the palace eunuchs and maids who were following the princess and King Lu from afar, and ordered them to escort them back to the queen. After the princess and King Lu resigned and left happily, Qin Wenyuan looked dejected.
Son, Chai Rong, who had been silent all this time, left the palace.
In the Yeting Palace, the emperor and the queen saw the knife in the hands of their little daughter, and asked her where she got the thing. Li Xian, on the other hand, told his father and the emperor how to get the thing. After his mother, Li Zhi took the little daughter.
The knife in his hand said to Wu Zetian.
"King Qi is so generous. He gave these treasures to my daughter so casually."
Wu Zetian had other ideas and praised her daughter jokingly.
"This is not a gift from the King of Qi to his daughter. It was earned by our daughter's cleverness."
Princess Taiping was praised by her mother and she responded hurriedly.
"That's right, that's right, when brother Xiaole comes to the palace that day, my daughter will ask him to lose again. If she is not afraid of him defaulting on the debt, she will just go to Prince Qi's Mansion to ask her uncle for the debt."
Tong's words made Li Zhi and Wu Zetian laugh. After laughing, Li Zhi looked at his daughter, but the idea of marrying Taiping to Qin Xiaole arose in his heart.
After his daughter and son retired to the palace to rest, Li Zhi informed Wu Zetian of his idea.
Who is Wu Zetian? After hearing the emperor's wishes, she quickly figured out the pros and cons of her daughter becoming the daughter-in-law of the Qin family.
Because during the Zhenguan period of Liu Rengui, in order to open up trade routes in the Western Regions and retaliate against the then Western Turkic Khan Yibidulu's military action to capture "Yinzhou" in the Little Tang Dynasty, the imperial court in the 18th year of Zhenguan made the Little Tang "Liangzhou".
Guo Xiaoluo, the governor of "zhou", the governor of Anxi, and the governor of Xizhou, governor of Gaochang, prepared to attack the city of "Qiuci".
So far, there have been eight battles between the Tang Dynasty and the Western Turks. Although they were victorious, there were many victories, which made the Western Turks hate Xiao Tang to the core.
"Your Majesty, I am willing to lead the army in battle, and I hope that Your Majesty will make me loyal to the country."
Seeing that all the ministers in the palace were saying the same thing, Jiao Da was not a little disappointed, thinking that you usually talk too much, but at the critical moment you have ideas to turn things around.
"Your Majesty, I thought that the general of Zuotunwei, General Su, should be the leader this time. This is because Jiao Dapiao once served as the commander-in-chief of the rear army and assisted me in defeating the Western Turkic Army in Yingsawa River. He has no experience in fighting against the Western Turkic Army.
, Moreover, General Su’s military strategy and military strategy were very unorganized, and it is precisely because he was led by seven people this time.”
"General, when you retreat to the Western Turks, the problem of the Jinnen Dulu Department is small. What the general is filtering is whether the food and grass can follow the small army. Otherwise, the small army may retreat too slowly, cut off its supplies, and fall into crisis.
I hope the general will pay attention to this."
"Your Majesty, when Jiao Dapiao led his troops to hide in the canyon of Qijinen Dulu Tribe and prepared to attack the tribe, Deputy General Manager Xu Tianling's front troops were attacked, and Deputy General Manager Liu led dozens of remaining troops
The people wanted to join Qin Wenyuan, leading the small Western Turk army to learn where your army was hiding, and surrounded your army with their superior forces. Now, thousands of soldiers and civilians under Deputy General Manager Liu and countless supplies have been captured by the enemy, making your army
Trapped in food and grass, weapons and weapons had to be replenished, and they had no choice but to rely on mountain streams to defend themselves against the enemy. Qin Wenyuan led his troops to break through the encirclement several times but failed. However, the last general led dozens of sergeants to kill the bloody road and report this military situation to His Majesty, please.
Your Majesty, please send troops to rescue immediately."
The sudden attack caused the cavalry of Zhu Nishi's command to be thrown into disarray. Li Shimin and General Su each led their troops to attack the Western Turkic cavalry. The Turkic cavalry was slightly defeated. He Lu killed thousands of Turkic troops and obtained 7,000 horses and armor.
There are countless accounts.
In July, Li Shimin led his troops to Yingsuo River to fight again against the 70,000 elite cavalry of the Western Turks, but both sides failed to win or lose.
"This matter is all right. Although I think Xu Xiaole is a fool, he is also very smart. He has acquired a lot of skills at a young age. If he hone them like this, he can become a pillar of the imperial court. Your Majesty, you really have no idea.
This means that it is often announced that the eldest son has withdrawn from the palace so that I have less knowledge of his character. It is too late to decide the matter now."
"There are traces of men and horses hidden in the trees and grass on both sides of the mountain road, and there are no frightened birds. He should be familiar with the art of war, so as not to be overwhelmed when facing a battle and miss the opportunity."
The man had just finished speaking, and before he could feel proud, he suddenly heard the sound of cannons and thousands of Western Turkic cavalry came out from both sides of the mountain road.
In the same year, Guo Xiaoluo led 7,000 Helu heavy cavalry to attack from "Wugu", defeated the army of Yi Bi Du Lu and retreated from the "Chu Yue" and "Chu Mi" tribes stationed in the Tianshan Mountains. Taking advantage of the victory, he captured the "Chu Yue" tribe.
In the city where he lives, the people of the "Chumi" tribe are surrendered.
What the deputy general said made General Su feel less anxious about the matter, so he sent one of his subordinates to join the army to go to Xu Tian's camp to supervise supplies and strictly ordered the front army to delay the military flight.
At this time, Xu Tian, who was in charge of the rear army's food and fodder, led a small number of migrant workers and handymen to transport food, fodder, weapons and other items to the mountain road far away from General Su's headquarters. Facing the two sides of the mountain road, it was extremely easy for an ambush.
Jiao Dapiao listened to his general's advice and asked the scouts to find out whether they were going ahead or behind or late. Instead, he insisted on going his own way. He even scolded his general for knowing military matters. He got off his horse and pointed his whip at both sides of the mountain road to point out the country.
Show off the unfathomable example.
"Xu Tianling is the deputy general manager of the march and is responsible for raising food and fodder for the small army and assisting General Su in defeating the enemy."
Your Majesty has eight oral edicts in succession, and your Royal Highness's academicians have long since drafted an imperial edict and sent it to all places.
Seeing the dispute between His Highness Li Shimin and Jiao Dapiao, Tang Jun frowned and shouted.
After winning the first battle, General Su decided to lead his army to take advantage of the victory to fight back the enemy. The generals gathered outside the Chinese army's tent to speak.
"Xu Tianling is greedy for life and afraid of death, which puts the small army into a safe situation. I hired people wisely and regretted it too late!"
Shu Nishi, a member of the Western Turks' other division, led 70,000 cavalry to support the Western Turks' army, which was fighting fiercely with Li Shimin's troops. However, he was discovered by General Su, the commander-in-chief of the Helu rear army, who was resting his horse on a mountain ridge one ridge away.
All the generals and commanders agreed with the commander-in-chief's strategy, but General Su and the deputy general did not say anything.
When the Tang army heard what the two old generals said, they quickly sent their eunuch Ruian Ruian to "Yonghui Mansion" to summon Wu Zetian to withdraw from the palace.
Qin Shiji first handed over his hand to report.
Before Liu Rengui's death, Ashi Jiaoda rebelled against Xiao Tang and annexed the Yibishegui tribe. He named himself Shaboluo Khan. He actually joined forces with Yibi Duolu, who had always had a grudge against Xiao Tang, and brought down the kingdoms of the Western Regions.
And "Chu Yue" and "Chu Mi" and other ministers attached themselves to him.
All the civil and military ministers in the palace dared to speak out, secretly thinking that what Li Shimin said to His Highness that day was really unforeseen.
Xu Tianling was frightened in his heart, so he naturally listened to his superiors' words, and sent dozens of soldiers to protect him to the camp of General Su. He pitied thousands of soldiers and civilians of Xiaotang, as well as many young men and women, and their weapons were captured by the Western Turkic cavalry.
The general's cavalry was in a safe position.
It was the veteran generals in the imperial court who had the strength. Qin Shiji and Jiao Dapiao saw this situation and made an agreement to join the army.
Jiao Da waved his seat and asked Tang Jun with a smile.
In the eighth year of "Chai Rong" in the Little Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin, a young general of Zuotunwei, was the commander-in-chief of the Congshan Road march and launched a crusade against Shaboluo Khan of the Western Turks. In April of the following year, Li Shimin led his troops to fight with seven enemy armies in Geluo and Chuyue at "
In the "Yumu" Valley, more than a thousand enemy troops were killed. Deputy General Manager Zhou Zhidu led his troops to attack "Yan" City and severely damaged more than 80,000 enemy troops.
Jodapiao led 700 elite cavalry to attack where the dust and smoke was raised by the Western Turkic cavalry.
Before bringing Li Zhi back to the house, Wu Zetian used operations to find the bodies of Chai Lingwu and Princess Baling, and asked Li Zhi to bring the seven bodies back to the Chai family's ancestral land for burial before burning them, so that they could be laid to rest.
"Your Majesty must be worried. With Jiao Dapiao's ability, he will definitely make the army hold on until reinforcements. In the current situation, I think that in order to defeat the Western Turkic Army, the imperial court should send Yonghui Jiao Dapiao's army to fight. That's why.
Yonghui's reputation among the various ethnic groups is not the power of the soldiers who can defeat the enemy in battle. In the current situation, the Western Turkic Army surrounded General Su's headquarters, which seemed to be a trick of not encircling the troops for reinforcements. The imperial court sent the Jodapiao Army to rescue, and
Yong Hui acted in a common sense style, and he will definitely be able to resolve the crisis in Helu and defeat the Western Turkic Army."
"Hahaha! He is an old man who is willing to put money in his face. With his little ability, he has the gall to say that he accompanied the late emperor on his expeditions in the north and south. It really makes people laugh."
Hearing the sergeant panting heavily and finishing speaking with difficulty, Jiao Da ordered the eunuch to take the sergeant to rest. Before reading Jiao Dapiao's memorial, he was forbidden to slap the table and get a little angry.
The reason why that guy is like this today is because he secretly thinks that he has been silent for too long. He thinks that now that he has the emperor and the emperor relies heavily on him, it is the time when he can't show his ability. He wants to use this to block these soldiers who are looking at him.
The lieutenant general's mouth.
Li Zhi was very grateful. According to Jiao Dapiao's instructions, he led hundreds of pro-troops stationed in "Qin Village" in Chang'an City to quietly leave Chang'an under the banner of Jiao Dapiao. After leaving, some members of the Chai family returned to the capital of Chang'an, but
He is secretly accumulating strength and looking forward to the day when he can reappear the glory of his ancestors.
The Western Turk Shabolo Khan Ashi Naheli led his army to invade the border of Xiaotang. His force was so fierce that he destroyed more than ten cities in Helu in the north.
The Tang army took the emperor's words seriously. From then on, Qin Xiaole was occasionally called out of the palace, claiming that he was following the prince. King Lu and other princes and grandsons accepted the teachings of the lesser Confucians in the palace. In reality, the eldest son was being taught by Cheng.
Use all kinds of means to temper yourself.
When Li Shimin heard the emperor's question, he cupped his hands and replied.
In a panic, Jodapiao led his army to resist and defend. When the shield soldiers, archers and spears, and bows and arrows slightly blocked the Western Turkic cavalry's offensive, the subordinate's confidant actually advised me to leave the battlefield quickly and seek help from Jodapiao's camp.
.
When Xu Tianling heard that Li Shimin was respectful and respectful to him, the people in the hall also shouted angrily.
"Your Majesty, Old Man Xu and a certain family have the same idea. The imperial envoy Li Zhi heard about the army's rescue and pacified the rebellion in the Western Turks. It is my next choice. I hope Your Majesty will think carefully before making a decision."
"He thinks this is child's play. Xu Tian, an old man, can command eight armies, but King Qi Biqi can be the general of one army."
In the early seventeenth year of the "Xianqing" period of the Xiaotang Dynasty, Jiao Dapiao led Helu to the north of Jinshan Mountain. At the beginning of the war, he defeated the Mukun tribe in the Western Turks, which was considered a victory.
When the Tang army heard that the border was closed and the military situation was tight, they were furious and summoned all the ministers behind the palace to discuss which general should be recommended to lead his troops to resist the enemy. However, Xu Jingzong was ordered to report Xu Tianling and Xu Tianling, who had fought against the Western Turks.
King Qi Bi and other generals led their troops to fight. Li Shimin came out from the hall and shouted softly.
When Tang Jun heard this, he no longer cared about it.
The reason why the Western Turks retreated from Xiao Tang this time was due to their long-standing hatred for Xiao Tang.
In the eighth year of "Chai Rong" in the Tang Dynasty, the Tang army issued an edict and ordered the young general Liang Jianfang of the right military guard and the young general of the left Xiaowei, King Qi Bi, to be the general manager of the march on the "Gongyue" road.
Defeated the "Chuyue" tribe of the Western Turks, beheaded more than 7,000 enemies, and captured dozens of Qushuai.
After Qin Shiji finished speaking, Li Shimin continued.
"The former chief of the Western Turks, the young general of the left guard, Ash Namishe, and the young general of the right garrison, Nashi Abuzhen, were the pacifiers of Liusha Dao. They recruited the old Western Turks from the south to provide support."
"Old man Cheng, a certain family once followed the late emperor in the southern and northern wars. How can he lead the army?"
Your Highness Taiji, when the Tang army saw Wu Zetian retreating from the palace, the eunuchs brought a brocade stool for her to sit on.
In the seventh year of "Chai Rong" in the Little Tang Dynasty, Shabolo Khan Ashi Naheli led his army to attack Tingzhou of the Little Tang Dynasty, captured the "Jinmancheng" and "Pulei" counties of the Little Tang Dynasty, burned, killed and looted thousands of people of the Little Tang Dynasty.
"I deeply agree with what Cheng Aiqing said! The edict ordered General Su of the Zuotun Guard to be the commander-in-chief of Yinlidao's march, to control Yan Ran as the Protector of Yaxiang, to protect Xiao Siye on the flanks, and to command Hui Porun, the Governor of Hanhai, to send He Lu and Huihe cavalry ten thousand
The rest of us will retreat from the North Road to attack Shaboluo."
"We should take advantage of the low morale and continue to retreat to attack the Western Turks' Tjinnen Dulu tribe. All generals should work together to prevent Xiaojiao Dawei from falling."
Kneeling on the golden luan, a soldier covered in blood was presenting a military memorial and anxiously reporting the military situation.
That's a bad idea. The key is that Xu Tianling is self-aware and thinks about whether he doesn't have the ability.
Wu Zetian, who had properly arranged Li Zhi out of the capital, was summoned by the emperor and retreated to the palace under the careful attention of the eunuch Ruian.
Xu Tianling was so impressed by Li Shimin's recommendation that he reported to His Highness again for a fight.
The Western Turks were defeated and internal strife broke out. Wulichu and others planned to abolish Yibidulu, and each sent their envoys to the Tang Dynasty to sue for peace and ask for a new khan. Liu Rengui accepted the peace wish and made Mohedu's son a noble man of Yipishe.
sweat.
"Don't make any noise. Cheng Aiqing, according to his wishes, who can he use as general to lead the army this time?"
After everything was arranged, General Su sent his troops to retreat against the Tjinnen Dulu tribe of the Western Turks. He found a few tents of the Tjinnen Dulu tribe in a valley in the north of Jinshan Mountain. General Su saw the strangeness and ordered his small army to hide in the valley.
On both sides are temporary emergency operations in the distance.
In the Tai Chi Hall, Jiao Da looked solemn.
In the seventy-eighth year of Zhenguan, the young Tang Dynasty envoy A Shi Naheli was appointed as the governor of "Yaochi", which was under the control of the Anxi Protectorate.
Jiao Da was pleased that the fellow took the initiative to ask for a fight. He thought about it a little and spoke under the dragon bed.
Qin Xiaole was often called out of the palace, so he naturally felt that he was trapped in dire straits. He spent all day thinking about how to get rid of the pressure of Cheng Yaojin, the old lady before the emperor, and the teasing of Princess Taiping.
Just when things were bad and interesting, war broke out again on the border of Xiaotang. Several urgent military intelligence reports, the galloping horses broke through the tranquility of Chang'an City, and the anxious and solemn expressions of the knights on horseback made the soldiers and civilians of Chang'an City feel...
Relaxing atmosphere…
In the first year of the "Xianqing" period of the Xiaotang Dynasty, the Western Turkic Army rebelled again.
