Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3091
Of course, Li Daozong also knew that the key to Fang Jun's expedition to Hexi was not only that the half of the right guards could serve and defend the counties in Hexi, but also whether the remaining half of the right guards could play a role in restraining the left guards. so that it can still reach a balance.

In case the remaining half of the Right Guards are vulnerable, the situation in Chang'an may get out of control.

It is the norm for soldiers to make dangerous moves.

But the dangerous strategy at both ends is really dangerous and dangerous.

So Li Daozong asked: "If half of the right guards are left, Erlang thinks that the combat power can be preserved, can he still undertake the task of guarding the Xuanwu Gate?"

These words are a bit euphemistic, but they are actually asking: Can you be sure that even half of the right guards can still deter the left guards, and even if the situation gets out of control, it can still be the same as when the whole right guards were stationed before? Effect?

"Of course there is no problem. Even if it is only half of the right guards, it will still sweep all the guards, even the left and right guards!"

Fang Jun is naturally full of confidence in the army under his command. This is not blind confidence, but comes from You Tunwei's past illustrious military exploits and the uninterrupted high-intensity training in the past two years.The quality of the strong soldiers, the military literacy that prohibits orders, and the application of various new firearms, it is no exaggeration to praise You Tunwei as "the number one army in the world".

Tactics and armaments beyond the times are enough to make the Navy and Youtunwei the invincible divisions in both water and land.

As for Zuo Tunwei?
Fang Jun never cared about that general and school soldier who asked for leave from time to time to go home to plow the fields and couldn't even guarantee his usual training.

The training standard he set for You Tunwei is how to completely defeat Zuo Tunwei within half an hour.Even if there are only half of the Right Guards left, it is by no means that the Zuo Guards, which seem to have a large number of people, can compete.

Li Daozong looked at Li Chengqian and said, "Your Highness, right now we can only let the Right Tunwei replace the Left Tunwei to go to Hexi, otherwise, once Hexi is lost, the situation will immediately collapse to the point of no return. In an emergency, it is time to kill and make a decision. Be emotional and miss the chance to fight."

Li Chengqian was tangled.

He naturally knew the importance of Longyou's strategic position. Once the counties in Hexi were lost, Guanzhong would face the barbarian cavalry. Coupled with the fact that some people in Tang Dynasty had ulterior motives, it might be a huge disaster that swept across the country.

But let Fang Jun lead half of the Right Tunwei to go out to face [-] to [-] Tuyuhun cavalry, which made him unbearable.

Isn't this clearly asking Fang Jun to die?
He is the most outstanding figure among the younger generation of the military, but there is a huge gap in the number of troops between the two sides. How can there be half a chance of winning?

And once Fang Jun leads half of the right guards out of Longyou, how will the remaining half of the right guards outside the Xuanwu Gate contain the left guards to achieve balance?Once the balance is out of control and the situation is tense, who knows what Zuo Tunwei will do?
For Chai Zhewei, Li Chengqian was very worried.He wasn't afraid of death, but once the Zuo Tunwei defeated the remnants of the Right Tunwei, and then entered the Xuanwu Gate and quickly occupied the Taiji Palace, the entire center of the Tang Dynasty would be severely damaged, and the balance of the situation would be broken instantly.

At that time, no matter who Zuo Tunwei supports, it will be a catastrophe for Li Tang's royal family...

His father entrusted him with the power of supervising the country, but if he made the empire full of flames and flames of war, how could he be worthy of his father and the people of this world?
Li Chengqian hesitated.

Fang Jun took a look at Li Chengqian and said, "It's not too late for this matter. Why don't you go to the Political Affairs Hall tomorrow to ask the ministers for their opinions, and call all the ministers in the General Aircraft Department, and listen to the opinions of Duke Wei and others."

Li Chengqian saw that Fang Jun had made up his mind, and sighed: "What else is there to discuss? Gu naturally knows that as long as he doesn't want to lose the counties in Hexi, this is the only feasible way. But... that's all, a man should be a high-minded man, and his family and country are Difficult, why waste this body? I only hope that Erlang will be on the march, be cautious, and if it is not necessary, don't personally risk arrows and stones, and experience the battle!"

If a little Tuyuhun caused him to lose his humerus, that would really be like losing his arm!

Fang Jun felt warm in his heart, nodded his head and said: "Your Highness, don't worry, Xue Yantuo's 20 people who control strings have been beaten to death by my ministers, so what's the point? Your Highness only needs to guard the pass firmly, and the rear is not chaotic. When you kill the general and capture the flag, make new achievements!"

Li Chengqian wanted to say something, but looking at Fang Jun's determined eyes, thousands of words finally turned into a sigh.

Death can be lighter than a feather, or it can be heavier than Mount Tai. It is the highest honor for a husband to be shrouded in horse leather. What can you say if you don't hesitate to die for the sake of your family, country and world?

*****
Leading an army to go out requires the double approval of the Political Affairs Hall and the Military Aircraft Department, and the issuance of a seal and ribbon before the trip can take place.However, based on the current degree of control of the East Palace Department over the Political Affairs Hall and the Military Aircraft Department, in fact, as long as Li Chengqian allows it, it is equivalent to having been approved.

Even if someone stands up to oppose it, it is impossible to affect the overall situation.

So in the Political Affairs Hall in the early morning of the next day, when Li Chengqian said that he would allow Fang Jun to lead the Right Tunwei to replace Chai Zhewei to go to Hexi, it was quickly approved.

Of course, obstructions are inevitable...

Cen Wenwen once resolutely opposed it, "Tuyuhun has tens of thousands of cavalry across Qinghai. Once they cross the Qilian Mountains, they can take advantage of the situation and attack the city. Half of the right guards are less than [-], but they have to stick to Liang, Gan, Su, Gua, etc. Waiting for the states, under the attack of a strong enemy, wouldn't they be turned into powder in an instant? The Hexi counties are important, but they can't let the Tang tigers die in vain."

Xiao Yu also objected. He believed that now Fang Jun could be regarded as the most important figure in the military in Guanzhong, and even because of his past achievements, he could be called the banner of the military. disaster.Under the ups and downs, the morale of the enemy will definitely skyrocket, and it is unknown whether they directly attack Guanzhong regardless of it.

……

However, everyone knows the importance of Hexi to the Tang Dynasty, no matter what the price is, it must not be lost.

What else can we do besides letting You Tunwei go to Longyou?Even if they knew the danger of the Youtunwei's expedition this time, if Tuyuhun really rebelled, half of the Youtunwei would become their sacrifices to the flag, and all of them would be slaughtered in the Hexi counties, so they could only silently agree.

Therefore, after the Zhengshitang meeting, the news that Fang Jun was about to lead Youtunwei to the expedition spread throughout Guanzhong in an instant. This kind of spirit of going out brazenly knowing that he could not do it, and even knowing that he would die, made the people of Guanzhong excited!
Originally, Fang Jun's reputation among the people was very good, coupled with the generosity of "going to die to defend the country", Fang Jun's reputation suddenly skyrocketed, reaching an unprecedented peak.

This is a loyal minister!
This is the pillar of the country!
Defending one's family and one's country, one does not hesitate to sacrifice one's own body. There is no heroic hero in the past like this!
At the same time, the news that Chai Zhewei was "seriously ill" just before the imperial court ordered the expedition also spread like wildfire, causing public grievances to boil.

Who is the fool?

No matter how solid the evidence, no one believes such a coincidence.To put it bluntly, he was afraid of losing his reputation and being questioned if he failed, and he was even more afraid of losing his life on the battlefield if he was defeated.

Comparing the two, Fang Jun's loyalty, bravery and heroism are more prominent, and Chai Zhewei's reputation has plummeted. "Fear of the enemy and fear of war", "greedy for life and fear of death", and "disgraceful of family tradition" are all infamous on Chai Zhewei's head one by one. , someone even threw rotten eggs in front of Duke Qiao's mansion...

Chai Zhewei, who was still convalescing in the mansion, was furious, but there was nothing he could do.

Right now, the crowd is raging, and his "patient" has almost become a big villain. If he dares to impose heavy punishment on the people who come to insult and make trouble, the custody will be severely sanctioned by the court.In particular, the reputation of Qiao Guogong's mansion was discredited and cast aside by all.

Originally, his father Chai Shao's reputation among the people was not very good, and the Duke of Qiao's mansion relied entirely on the prestige of Princess Pingyang to support it. If there was another reputation as a "rat father and mouse son", then the Chai family would be completely ruined up...

Therefore, even if Chai Zhewei was so angry, he could only keep silent in the mansion, trying to downplay the hostile sentiment among the people.

In my heart, I have already greeted the eight generations of Fang Jun's ancestors countless times.

Hexi and other places have been strategic points since ancient times, easy to attack and difficult to defend, you are acting like a hero right now, but when Tuyuhun really rebels, how can you resist the assault of Tuyuhun cavalry?You think you are really the "God of War"!

If it weren't for you being so reckless as a hero, how could I be scolded so badly?
Hateful and furious, he gritted his teeth and prayed that this fellow would die in Hexi, trampled to death by Tuyuhun's thousands of horses and horses, so that the hatred in his heart could be dispelled...
