Take the incident of Li You bullying the princess as an example. Fortunately, it happened in the territory of the Turks. After all, the Western Turks still have strength.
If this happened in other small countries, I'm afraid this thing would be unimaginable. Take their Loulan country as an example. Let alone the princess, so what if she is the king's wife? If the armed forces of the whole country are added up, in the end,
About 30,000 people came.
And their combat effectiveness is not good enough. They only have about 70% of the combat effectiveness of the Western Turkic cavalry. Under such circumstances, someone slept with your king's wife. Is it possible for you to respond? All 30,000 of you.
If you add them all up, is it enough for the Tang Dynasty’s army to drink a pot?
When this happened, the Prime Minister summoned his generals and asked them to conduct a sand table deduction on the map. The final result made the Prime Minister completely give up. Unless our army is
If we go to the desert and fight guerrillas with the Tang army, we will cause some casualties to the Tang army.
But it is impossible for us to win. When our army enters the desert, the Tang army will enter the main transportation arteries and cities in the Loulan Kingdom, which is equivalent to controlling more than 70% of the Loulan Kingdom.
Population, in this case, no matter what kind of victory the army in the desert achieves, it is impossible to turn the situation around.
So after General Kang Ying finished speaking, this guy felt that he had to hurry back. If Li You did something excessive in his country, then they could only break his teeth and swallow it.
We must not make this matter a big deal. In other words, if he wants to slap the left cheek, we must not only get the other cheek close to him, but we must also be prepared to be slapped on the right cheek.
Although it is a bit shameful to do so, who makes us not as strong as others? The relationship between countries is actually the same as the relationship between people. When you are strong enough, others will give you full respect.
But if you are not strong enough, sometimes you even breathe incorrectly, people can easily find a reason to annex you.
It used to be that the Western Regions Allied Forces were still here to support us. Maybe some people in the Tang Dynasty had to think about what they were doing, but now the Western Regions Allied Forces have been disbanded. As the core of the Western Regions Allied Forces, the Western Turkic troops will soon withdraw.
, and the Prime Minister of Loulan Kingdom saw clearly that after the Western Region Allied Forces disbanded this time, it was absolutely impossible for Li Xiang to unite the countries in the Western Regions again.
The reason why we were able to unite last time was because of Xue Yantuo Khan. This guy is also considered a capable person. He has persuaded all the countries in the Western Region, but can you still have that chance now? Let’s leave other countries alone
Let’s not talk about it, let’s just talk about the largest main force, the Western Turks. They have finally been able to win a certain degree of peace, and there is no way they will fall into the quagmire on their own.
Without the participation of the Western Turks, even if there are some eloquent people, even if you unite all the countries in the Western Region, our strength is limited, how can we deal with the Tang army?
During this whole day, all armies came to say goodbye to General Kang Ying. Although these people usually did not help much, after all, everyone had lived in the same military camp for such a long time.
At that time, General Kang Ying still felt a little sad.
"General, a Tang army has rushed out from the border."
The farewell is going on here, who knows something will happen next to it. If it were in the past, General Kang Ying would definitely order his men to stand ready, but now most of the troops are packed and ready to go back
The royal city has gone.
Procedure?
Cheng Yaojin?
General Kang Ying saw the general's banner in the distance, and the words on it reminded him of General Cheng Yaojin of the Tang Dynasty, who was also considered a tiger general of the Tang Dynasty.
But when he saw the man leading the army, Kang Ying knew that he was wrong. This man should be a descendant of General Cheng Yaojin. Otherwise, how could he be so young?
General Kang Ying immediately came over with more than 20 people. It seemed that there were not many people on the other side, only about five or six hundred people at most. They probably weren't here to start a fight.
"May I ask if the person opposite is General Kang Ying?"
Cheng Chumo said with his fists clasped.
"I am the one who is the general. I wonder who the general is?"
Although they are currently in the process of retreating, the Western Turks have not been defeated after all, and General Kang Ying's words are still full of energy.
"I'm here next to Cheng Chumo, my father, Cheng Yaojin, the great general of the Tang Dynasty."
Cheng Chumo said very proudly that in the Tang army, this kind of inheritance has basically been formed. If your father is not strong enough, he will not be able to blow up the font size, but if it is your father
If Dad is strong enough, it would be an honor to have this brand name, which shows that your family has a lot of knowledge.
"I don't know what the general is doing here!"
In the past, General Kang Ying would have had to greet Cheng Chumo, but now he was in a low mood, so he was not in the mood to greet him.
"I believe that the general has also received a letter from your Khan. We have also received a letter from our Highness. You have begun to retreat today. We are here to supervise the retreat. Except for the 20,000 cavalry of your court, the other troops
The retreat must be completed before sunset tomorrow."
When Cheng Chumo said this, many people present were a little unconvinced and wanted to go up and fight him for 300 rounds, but they were all stopped by General Kang Ying. This was a warning given to us, whether we retreat tomorrow or
We will retreat the day after tomorrow. We will have to leave here sooner or later. If we start a fight with the other party because of this matter, wouldn't all our previous negotiations be in vain?
"General Cheng, please rest assured that we will complete the retreat within the specified time. However, our army also carries a large amount of supplies. I hope General Cheng can give us time to calculate."
The combat troops were able to retreat as soon as they were told to retreat, but the logistics personnel were slower.
"I have not received a letter in this regard. The letter I have received is that you must complete the retreat tomorrow night. If the retreat is not completed tomorrow night, we must receive all personnel and materials."
After hearing Cheng Chumo's words, General Kang Ying felt uncomfortable. You are clearly robbing us. We have brought so many supplies from the rear. Do you think we can take them away if we can?
