Chapter 179 The emperor guards the country! It is better to be in pieces than in ruins!
"Who says it's not the case? Kill those beasts!"
"Hiss... This is a good idea, but if the bloody flag moves, the situation in northern Xinjiang should be bad, and the scene from three years ago may reappear."
"Really or not? Just fart, I am invincible in the Tang Dynasty!
"
"If it is truly invincible, if the war in Northern Xinjiang goes smoothly, and if it can stop the Turkic cavalry, it will definitely not be a bloody flag."
"this……."
"What's going on in Northern Xinjiang? The defense line we built will definitely not be destroyed so quickly."
"……."
The people were in confusion.
For a time, all the people in Chang'an were thinking about Northern Xinjiang.
Some people even felt bad and began to pack their bags, leave Chang'an, and join other relatives.
The blood flag moves.
Chang'an is in danger!
.………….……….
Imperial City.
Tai Chi Palace.
Li Shimin was also criticizing and writing the memorial.
The sun is just right.
Everything is business as usual.
but,
Right now.
A war horse stepped directly onto the Tai Chi Palace and rushed in.
"Hiss... ow..."
The war horse whined, its front hooves softened, and it fell heavily to the ground.
After several days of galloping, the horses were exhausted and could no longer hold on.
A figure rolled down from the horse.
His face turned pale.
Chapped lips.
Crazy bloody.
His eyes were like red-hot iron, weeping with blood and tears.
He no longer had the strength to get up.
But he firmly grasped the bamboo tube on his chest and used all his strength towards Li Shimin.
"His Majesty……."
"Northern Xinjiang... is in danger!"
Li Shimin stood up suddenly.
The twins exploded.
His face was horrified.
Li Junxian was already standing beside the scout, but he did not move.
The blood flag is not something he can move.
"What's going on? What's going on?!"
Li Shimin hurriedly walked down.
The scout's mouth was already full of blood. He was lying on the ground, only taking in air but not breathing.
"Quick! Li Junxian! Doctor Xuan!"
Li Shimin shouted in horror.
At the same time, he quickly took the bamboo tube over and looked at it...
Not stopping for a moment.
My eyes fell on the brocade, row after row.
"This...this...this..."
An instant later, Li Shimin's eyes cracked open like projectiles about to explode!
The battle report above made him feel weak all over, his face was pale, and he was sweating profusely.
Scalp numbness.
incredible!
A wave of fear rose directly from the soles of the feet, and then went straight to the brain. The whole person instantly became extremely confused.
Li Shimin's eyes were immediately dazzled.
thump…….
He threw his butt and sat directly on the ground.
My head is confused.
At a loss.
The battle report above made him stupid when he saw it!
How is this possible?
The Turks advanced three hundred miles in a day, directly shaking up the defense line carefully prepared by the Tang Dynasty. It can be said that the defense line in northern Xinjiang that he had prepared for several years collapsed!
Now, the Turkic army has approached Yunzhou City!
As long as the city of Yunzhou is defeated, then going straight to Chang'an is a piece of cake!
Turkic cavalry!
damn it!
The corners of Li Shimin's mouth were trembling so much that he felt cramped.
His eyes were staring blankly ahead, and his brain had stopped thinking.
soon,
The doctor is here.
Directly in Tai Chi Palace, treatment for the scouts began.
Li Junxian stood beside Li Shimin worriedly and asked: "Your Majesty, what happened in Northern Xinjiang?"
As soon as he said these words, Li Shimin shuddered violently, then raised his head suddenly, and with a trembling voice, he roared hoarsely: "Quickly...quickly...let Wei Zheng, Changsun Wuji, Li Jing and the others come to see me.
,Hurry, go quickly!
"
Nothing should happen to Northern Xinjiang!
Chang'an must go to support!
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, what happened in Northern Xinjiang?"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the blood flag has entered the palace, what news is ahead?"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something happened in Northern Xinjiang? Please let me wait for support!"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
Without half a stick of incense, Changsun Wuji, Wei Zheng, Du Ruhui, Li Jing, Qin Qiong and others rushed into the palace on horseback. Then, they dismounted in front of Tai Chi Palace and shouted in panic.
They no longer care whether it is rude or not.
They had also heard about the bloody flag. There was already a storm in the city, and His Majesty was urging them hurriedly. How could they still go slowly?
There is still the smell of blood in Tai Chi Palace.
This smell was caused by the blood vomited by the war horse just now and the blood vomited by the blood flag officer.
but!
No one cares about this anymore!
Looking at Li Shimin who was sitting there in despair, he hurriedly walked over.
When Li Shimin saw them, he handed them the brocade in his hand without saying a word.
Changsun Wuji hurriedly took it over.
Li Jing, Wei Zheng and the others also took a look.
hiss…….
After looking through it, everyone couldn't help but take a breath.
this…….
In an instant, they felt their throats were sore and it was difficult to salivate.
how could it be possible?!
The Turks moved three hundred miles a day, the northern Xinjiang defense line completely collapsed, and their troops were already approaching Yunzhou City!
Li Ji came to ask for help!
damn it!
What exactly is going on?
Especially Li Jing, who is the Minister of the Ministry of War, he understands very well how much effort the court has put into the northern Xinjiang defense line, but now, as soon as the war started, it completely collapsed.
"What exactly is going on?!"
"damn it!
"
"Your Majesty, the Turks...when did the Turks become so powerful!
"
Li Jing was angry, but besides the rage, the only thing left was panic.
"Our Datang defense line is so strong that it can definitely prevent the Turks, but..."
"Beijiang, what are you doing!
"
"What on earth is Li Ji doing?!"
"So incompetent!
"
Li Jing roared.
"No! General Li... cough cough cough..."
At this time, under the treatment of the imperial physician, the Blood Flag Officer slowly recovered, saved some strength, and was able to speak.
"That's not the case, the Turks... The Turks don't know what's going on. It's like they have opened their eyes. They can accurately find the life gate of our defense line. Almost all attacks hit the weakest link."
"It's really impossible, otherwise, we would never have collapsed so quickly!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Those big fortresses have not yet exerted their strength, and I saw that they were already surrounded by Turkic cavalry!"
"This is not General Lee's fault. This is not General Lee's fault. This is destiny! This is destiny!
"
"God bless the Turks, God bless the Turks, cough cough cough..."
The blood flag officer shouted to defend Li Ji.
Everyone was silent.
Li Jineng is in charge of Northern Xinjiang, and Li Shimin, Changsun Wuji and others all know about his abilities.
But who would have thought?
Who would have thought!
The Turkic cavalry actually...
hiss…….
Attacking from various weak points prevented the northern Xinjiang defense line from fully exerting its due capabilities.
Li Jing took a breath. If he said that, it would be understandable.
But how could the Turks find the weakest points?!
damn it!
To be honest, only Li Ji and a few people in Chang'an in Yunzhou City know the details of this northern Xinjiang defense line.
Could it be said that there is a traitor among them?
How can it be!
Totally impossible!
What exactly is going on?
"Your Majesty, the top priority is to quickly mobilize troops to support Yunzhou City. Otherwise, with hundreds of thousands of Turkic cavalry troops, the pressure on Yunzhou City will be too great. If it collapses, then our Chang'an will...but...
"
Wei Zheng got right to the point.
Now we are not thinking about how the Turks found those places, but we are thinking about how to support Yunzhou City.
"Your Majesty, the general will go forward!
"
Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, and Yuchi Jingde all knelt down.
Li Shimin took a deep breath, his eyes flashed, and he didn't think about it for long.
After just a few breaths, he nodded vigorously.
"Okay, the three of you will lead the army of the Sixteenth Guards and rush to Yunzhou City immediately."
"We must let the Turks know how powerful our Tang Dynasty is!
"
Li Shimin clenched his fists fiercely.
Now.
Can be relied upon.
That is to say, Qin Qiong, Yuchi Jingde, Cheng Yaojin and other powerful generals who followed him all the way, were loyal and made great achievements in battle.
Just let them take action.
Li Shimin only believes in them now!
Things are in crisis.
Completely at the last minute,
Qin Qiong and the other three received the military talismans and quickly left to prepare.
"Your Majesty, huh... don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry!"
"We can't mess up our position, the Turks are nothing more than that! Believe in Brother Qin, Yaojin and the others, believe in General Li Ji and Li, and also believe in me, Sergeant of the Tang Dynasty!"
"Before, the Turks were just lucky, but now they won't be able to do so smoothly!
"
Changsun Wuji consoled him.
Li Shimin sat there and nodded heavily.
However, this news was really too explosive, and there was no mental preparation.
He still felt like the blood in his body was coagulating.
Body temperature drops rapidly.
My brain can't turn around.
"Your Majesty, how about going to Luoyang temporarily?"
"Wait for the generals to exterminate the Turks and then come back?"
At this time, Wei Zheng hesitated and said again.
As soon as these words came out, everyone else also agreed and nodded.
"Yes, Your Majesty, why not go back to Luoyang first and come back after the war is over!"
"Your Majesty, Luoyang is not far from Chang'an and is the old place of our Tiance Mansion. We should go there first so that the soldiers in front can feel at ease."
"That's right, Your Majesty, please leave Chang'an for the time being!
"
"……."
They said one after another.
Three years ago, the Turks approached the Wei River. The situation was dangerous, but fortunately they did not attack the city.
But this time, hundreds of thousands of Turkic troops went south and collapsed the northern Xinjiang defense line in one day. They must have planned it in advance. This time, they will never stop in front of the Wei River.
We are about to reach Chang'an City and must attack the city.
By then, if the city is destroyed, Your Majesty will be in danger.
If the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty was captured, it would mean that the Tang Dynasty... would be destroyed.
They had to think about it.
Once His Majesty is captured, it will be extremely difficult and almost impossible for the Tang Dynasty to make a comeback!
By then, the world will really become a Turkic world!
Li Shimin sat on the ground.
He raised his eyes and looked at them with a cold expression.
Leave Chang'an!
Heading to Luoyang?
hehe…….
Do you want to imitate the defeated king? Give up the important land of Kyoto, abandon the people here, and flee alone?
If he did this, even if the Turks retreated later, he would not have the shame to see the people of the world again.
"No marriage, no indemnity, no land cession, no tribute, the emperor will guard the country, and the king will die in the country!"
"Could it be that...could it be that...have you all forgotten this sentence?"
"I won't leave!
"
"I won't leave even if I die!
"
Li Shimin growled.
Everyone took a breath and lowered their heads.
If Li Kuan were here, he would be a little relieved to hear Li Shimin say this.
Regardless of the later history, the Tang Dynasty is described as extremely prosperous.
But, that was only the early years.
Look at the back. An Lushan soldiers, Huangchao bandits and Tubo barbarians invaded Chang'an. Then during the Anshi Rebellion and Huangchao Uprising, both Tang Xuanzong and Tang Xizong were unable to escape Shu. As for the Tubo invasion of Chang'an, the emperor
He also fled overnight, abandoning Chang'an.
In the middle and late Tang Dynasty, the crotch was really stretched.
Otherwise, when Li Kuan heard about the marriage, he would not be so proactive and want to take action, or even scold Li Shimin directly.
The Tang Dynasty has no bones.
Now, Li Kuan helped Datang shape the skeleton.
If there is no reconciliation, no indemnity, no land ceding, no tribute, the emperor will guard the country and the king will die.
This sentence, like a soul, stood in the hearts of the people of the Tang Dynasty at this time, and was also imprinted in the heart of Li Shimin.
Changsun Wuji, Wei Zheng, and Du Ruhui looked at each other deeply and stopped talking about it.
They could feel the stubbornness in His Majesty's heart.
The emperor guards the country!
The king dies in Sheji!
Since His Majesty is so determined, what do they have to fear?
"His Majesty!
"
Immediately, Changsun Wuji and others lifted up their robes and knelt down directly.
"Your Majesty, I will definitely follow Your Majesty. Even if we live or die, we must die before the people of the city!
"
"Your Majesty, we will protect the Tang Dynasty and will never take a step back!
"
"Your Majesty, the Turks are nothing more than a group of barbarians. I believe that we will be able to eliminate the Turks and restore the glory of the Tang Dynasty!
"
"……."
Several people shouted loudly.
Li Shimin nodded.
He waved his hand.
"You all, please get up."
"Auxiliary engine, Wei Zheng, Ke Ming, you three are responsible for the transportation of grain and grass. All the millions of tons of grain will be allocated to you."
"Go ahead, Medicine Master. The map and clairvoyance will all be provided to Yaojin and the others."
"This time, I, Datang, will win!
"
"Come on, come on, although we are in a bit of a hurry, we have been preparing to avenge the shame of three years ago today!
"
Li Shimin growled.
Everyone nodded.
Hurry down and get busy.
Li Shimin sat in front of Tai Chi Palace, also took out the map and looked at it carefully.
.………….……….
Chang'an was in chaos.
As the flag officer entered the city, the urgent report from Northern Xinjiang had already caused countless discussions.
Immediately afterwards, the people of Chang'an also discovered it, and the army of the Sixteenth Guards who assisted around Chang'an also began to mobilize.
