Emperor Taizong's Growth Plan

Anguo, Lishan Island.

At this time, this small island was built into a huge military stronghold, and the soldiers in it were continuously drilled.

And these soldiers, although they all have different armors and incomplete weapons.But looking at the posture during the march and drill, it is also very decent, barely out of the mob.

On the surface of the sea, on top of small warships, soldiers held crossbows and patrolled the island.

There are also ships flying the national flags of various countries, avoiding the attention of the warships of the Yunguo Navy, and quietly coming here, transporting all kinds of weapons and armor for the people on the island.

Lishan Island, relying on its isolation overseas, is far away from the mainland of Anguo. The last old tribe scattered in the Li Dynasty and Anguo people who were dissatisfied with the rule of Yunguo all gathered under the banner of Li Weining, the former king of Li, and used this as a base to fight against Yunguo. rule.

Today, because of various policies, the foundation of Yun Kingdom's rule is solid and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.The people in Anguo surrendered and praised Dayun Tianzi's benevolence, and the mighty situation was irresistible.

It has to be said that these people who gathered under Li Weining's command with their passion and dared to resist the rule of the Yun Kingdom, even if they were opponents, could not help but feel a little admiration!
But at this time, Gong Yingzong, who had personally rushed to Lishan Island in the military camp to preside over the counterattack, suddenly raised his head and looked towards the southeast.

In his eyes, black and white streams swirled vertically and horizontally, showing a profound and mysterious meaning.

In his line of sight, he saw that the power of Xia Guo's national destiny, which was originally profound and vigorous, had weakened in an instant.

In contrast, the ferocious aura of blood that symbolized the Xia Kingdom's army became even more frightening, turning into a red beam of light that shot straight into the sky, dyeing the entire Xia Kingdom's sky in blood.

Seeing this, Gong Yingzong clapped her hands suddenly, and said loudly:
"The time has come!"

He turned around abruptly and looked at Li Weining who was standing beside him.

Today's Li Weining, with a thin and decadent face and dull eyes, is completely different from the high-spirited king of the Li Dynasty back then!Obviously, these years of losing his country have not been easy for him...

Gong Yingzong's eyes sharpened, he bowed his hands slightly, and said:

"Please, my lord, immediately order to send troops to counterattack Anguo!"

Although the words are respectful, the etiquette is in place.But no matter in tone or expression, there was a perfunctory look, obviously he didn't take Li Weining seriously in his heart.

Today's Li Weining, on the other hand, has recognized his current situation, and did not feel the slightest embarrassment about it, calmly said:

"Okay, everything is up to you!"

Gong Ying went through a process, and got the permission of the former Li Wang Li Weining, and gained a certain legal rationality for her next actions.

He immediately brought Li Weining together, gathered all the generals, and ordered loudly:

"Decree that the troops will rise tomorrow, set up the banner of King Li, and issue a call to action, calling on the people of Anguo to respect orthodoxy and resist the Yun army."

"The [-] troops headed north all the way, recaptured the Shenglong Mansion, returned to the old capital, and reopened the country!"

Shenglong Mansion is still the capital of Anguo, and the small court is also there.Even the Prime Minister Anguo Affairs Yamen established by Yunguo is in Shenglong Mansion.

The most important thing is that Shenglong Mansion is only a hundred miles to the south, and it is the former naval station of Lichao East Road, which is now the logistics supply base of Yunwai Marine Corps!
Winning here will not only lose the support of the Yunguo navy stationed in Leizhou, but also obtain a large number of naval warships stored here, allowing them to gain a naval force that can temporarily compete with the Yun army.

At that time, most of the forces of the Yunwai Haihai Division, plus all the forces of the Yunjun in Anguo, Yongzhou, Xiushan County, and Shicheng County, will be restrained by their mere [-] soldiers!

At this time, most of the Anguo people gathered here came with the idea of ​​repeating Li Dynasty Sheji.

Hearing Gong Yingzong's slogan of "returning the old capital and reopening the country", immediately made people's blood boil.

No matter how many people there were disliked by Gong Yingzong before, but at this moment, they all had no objection, they clasped their fists together and saluted, and shouted loudly:

"As ordered!"

Everyone left excitedly, and after conveying the order to counterattack An Guo to their soldiers, the entire military camp suddenly fell into a burst of frenzy.

After all, those who are still willing to come to Lishan Island to obey Li Weining's orders and receive funding from the Xia Kingdom are either those who are loyal to the Li Dynasty, or those who have a deep hatred for the Yun Kingdom.

Hearing that they were finally able to counterattack Anguo, they were naturally extremely excited and couldn't restrain themselves. The cheers were endless and could not be calmed down for a long time.

But about half an hour later, when Gong Ying heard the sound of cheers and shouts from time to time in the army camp, his brows frowned immediately.

Shouting loudly in the army is prohibited by military orders.Just now all the soldiers were excited and cheered together, which is still understandable.

But after such a long time of effort, he still couldn't calm down. Either the general was incompetent in command, or the lowly soldiers didn't have much fear of military law.

Gong Yingzong is very clear that the army under him is obviously only slightly better than the mob.

And the Yun army is famous for its bravery and combat skills, even the local county soldiers may not be able to compete with the soldiers and horses under him.

Even if taking advantage of the unpreparedness of the Yun army and the shortage of soldiers and horses, they seized the Shenglong Mansion, and then faced with the encirclement and suppression of most of the Yun army, it would be difficult to maintain...

Thinking of this, Gong Yingzong frowned even tighter.

No, only at the beginning of the war, if you try your best to expand your power, territory, and expand the results of the battle, can you deal with the Yun army for a longer time and delay the Xia army for a longer time!
Gong Yingzong turned around immediately, and said in a deep voice to the cronies beside him:

"How many masters are available in the alliance now?"

The confidant on the side quickly said:

"Middle-level warriors above the fourth level can mobilize more than 700 people. There are 81 warriors of the seventh level, 23 warriors of the eighth level, and masters of the ninth level. Now there are only two in the alliance."

Gong Yingzong, the abandoned apprentice of the political strategist, developed a considerable power after being expelled from the sect in order to compete with his senior brother Zhang Yue.

Now the masters he can mobilize are probably much more than the novelists and miscellaneous masters among the hundreds of schools of thought!

Gong Yingzong thought about it silently, then nodded slightly, and said in a deep voice:

"It should be enough... Immediately send an order to call all the masters and set off with me. Along the way, I will support the army, harass and assassinate, and take the city by force. Before the cloud army reacts, we must take back the Dragon Mansion and expand the occupied land! "

"Yes!"
-

Tubo, in the royal palace of some cities.

At this time, all the dignitaries were arguing and arguing with each other because of the matter of sending troops to attack the cloud, causing the palace hall to fall into chaos.

"Please Zanpu think twice! The country of Yun is rich and prosperous, and its national strength is a thousand times that of Tubo, and its military strength is even more irresistible. Joining forces with Xia to attack Yun is the way to death!"

"The front line has already been detected, and the main force of the Yun army is attacking the northern border of Xia State with all its strength. Lintan and Yin'en in Xiangzhou County of Yun State, Li County and Wenshang County of Jiangyang County, and the soldiers of Yun State add up to less than one Wan, the rest are all local county soldiers in Yunguo. With such a weak force, it is a great opportunity for Tubo to enter the Central Plains!"

"Ridiculous! Could it be that you have forgotten that the Southwest sheep belong to the same department?"

"That's right, Yunguo's strong support for the Yangtong tribe is to restrain my Tubo energy! If we attack Yunguo with all our strength, the Yangtong tribe doesn't need to take precautions?"

"Near the Yangtong tribe, there are a total of four Dongben and twelve Siben, leading 4 soldiers and horses to garrison. No matter how brave the four guards of Yunguo are, and how elite the cavalry of the Yangtong tribe is, they don't add up to [-]. People, it is impossible to pose a threat!"

Siben is the title of the chief of the local tribe in Tubo.

And Dongben is a military officer set up under the Tubo royal court. Literally translated, it is the head of ten thousand households, commanding the elite army under the Tubo royal court!

"But once the attack on the cloud fails, the royal court will suffer heavy losses, and the Yangtong tribe will inevitably take advantage of the momentum... Today's Yun Kingdom, with the support of the Yangtong tribe, already has the ability to influence the plateau! The power of the dragon god's blessing will never stop It will be useful to Yun Country again!"

The so-called "Dragon God's Blessing" is actually altitude sickness.It has made it difficult for the Central Plains to bring Tubo into rule for thousands of years.

The nobles in Tubo are not fools, and they have long understood the reason why the so-called "dragon god protects the plateau".

Now Yunguo has supported the Yangtong Division, and even trained an elite army dedicated to Yunguo that can fight on the plateau, the Four Guards.Yun Kingdom has been able to extend its own rule to the Tubo Plateau!
Above the main hall, there was a sudden silence.Every Tibetan dignitary felt an uncontrollable sense of fear in their hearts.

Over the years, they have seen the growing national power of Yun Country, and they have become more and more afraid of Yun Country in their hearts.

At first they comforted themselves, thinking that with the "blessing of the dragon god", Tubo did not need to worry about the invasion of foreign enemies.

But today's sentence above the palace hall directly broke their last support, and then told them bluntly that Tubo's aloofness for thousands of years has finally been completely broken!

The hall was silent for a long time, Zan Puqi Nieqi, who had been silent on the throne, finally said in a low voice with a hoarse voice:

"So, I, Tubo, have no other choice but to find a way to unite with Xia Kingdom and defeat Yun Kingdom!"

That's right, if you just watched Yunguo dominate the Central Plains, Tubo's end was almost predictable.

Only by defeating Yunguo and bringing the situation of all the countries in the world back to a few years ago, can Tubo be preserved!

But the reason is that, but abandoning Nie Qi and letting all Tubo dignitaries face the prosperous and prosperous Yun Kingdom, where the national power is extremely powerful, the army is unstoppable, and the country is extremely vast, the sense of despair lingers in the air In the hearts of the powerful.

And just when the atmosphere was deadlocked, the door of the palace hall, which was originally closed, suddenly opened.

Everyone turned their heads to look, and saw at the entrance of the main hall, there were a few Tubo masters with wild and simple aura and strange costumes, carrying a sedan chair and walking quickly into the hall.

Judging by their aura, these Tubo masters who were pretending to be carrying sedan chairs turned out to be ninth-level cultivation bases!
You know, even after the world has been promoted and the world has changed drastically, these ninth-level masters can still be called first-class in the world.

But in Tubo, no matter what his background was before, as long as he breaks through the ninth level of cultivation, he will immediately be awarded the position of the Tubo state religion, the great guardian of the Bon religion, and his status in the country is only between the great wizard of the Bon religion and Tubo Zanpu. Next, extremely honorable!

Moreover, the arrival of this person was not as simple as a few great protectors of the Bon religion personally carrying the sedan chair.

In the main hall, the Tubo dignitaries who had been arguing with each other just now stopped talking and bowed their heads to the visitors in unison, extremely humble.

Tubo Zanpu abandoned Nie Qi on the throne, got up himself, stepped down from the throne, and came to the hall to greet him.

Seeing this posture, one can see how precious the identity of the visitor is in Tubo!

The sedan chair fell, and the curtain was slowly lifted.

Holding a big drum in one hand, wearing a feather crown on his head, strangely dressed, with human bone accessories on his body, the old man with a dry face and a gloomy manner walked out of the sedan chair tremblingly.

When the Tubo monarchs saw the visitor, they immediately stroked their chests and saluted respectfully:

"Meet the Great Wizard!"

The old man in front of him is the great wizard who is in charge of the beliefs in Tubo, the head of the Spartan religion, and the spokesperson of the theocracy in Tubo!
The old man hunched over and slowly glanced at the people in the hall with his cloudy eyeballs, then said hoarsely:
"Guidance of the Dragon God!"

The Tubo dignitaries shrank their pupils, and immediately knelt down on the ground, saluted their chests, and waited for the order with lowered eyebrows.Even Abandoned Nie Qi lowered his head in a gesture of respect.

"The evil god let his minions disturb the peace of the plateau, and use the wealth of the Central Plains to corrupt our Tubo warriors. Then he sent his followers to confuse the people of the plateau with false beliefs."

"The dragon god sent down guidance, and the plateau warriors obeyed the guidance, and defeated the evil minion of the evil god, the cloud country in the Central Plains!"

Hearing this, the Tubo dignitaries below were surprised at why the Sparta Bon religion, which seldom participated in domestic affairs and never cared about the disputes between Tubo and the Central Plains, suddenly came forward at this time!

In the final analysis, it is still a matter of grabbing a job.

The belief in Buddhism is obviously a good medicine for the people of Tubo who have been oppressed by the central and local tribes in Tubo and are miserable!
Over the years, with the strong support of Yunguo, Buddhism has developed rapidly in Tubo.But in three or four years, it has spread from the fringe areas of Tubo to the whole country.

Even among the Tubo dignitaries who were in the hall at this time, there were quite a few people who often visited famous Buddhist monks to ask for advice on Buddhism.

The arrival of Buddhism has seriously threatened the status of Spartan religion.It was precisely because of this that Qi Nieqi was able to persuade the great wizard to come forward and support sending troops to attack Yunguo!
At this time, Tubo Zanpu abandoned Nieqi, and the great wizard of Sparta Bon religion came forward.With the combination of Tubo royal power and theocratic power, there is no power in Tubo to resist.

No matter what the reason was, the dignitaries who opposed sending troops to Yun Kingdom just now were all speechless at this moment, and could only salute along with the rest of the people, and said in a deep voice:
"As ordered..."

Abandoned Nie Qi slowly raised his head, looking at the dignitaries who were kneeling and taking orders, a gleam of joy finally flashed in his eyes.

He immediately raised his head slightly and said loudly:
"Decree the five wings of Wang Ting to immediately mobilize fifteen Dongben, gather an army of 15, divide the troops into three groups, and attack Lintan and Yin'en in Xiangzhou County of Yunguo, and Li County in Jiangyang County!"

"In addition, all the tribes in the eastern border will be recruited to send troops to attack Yunguo."

Speaking of this, perhaps because he was worried that the tribes in the eastern border would not obey orders, Qi Nieqi continued to add:

"All the gold, silver, and servants that were plundered belonged to the tribes, and the royal court didn't need them at all!"

Anyway, what can be obtained specifically needs to be plundered by the tribes themselves.

With an empty promise, generous with the country's generosity, and then in exchange for all the tribes in the eastern border of Tubo to obey their orders, and to strengthen the royal power in the central Tubo, it is too happy to abandon Nie Qi!
Under such a combination of kindness and power, the entire Tubo finally managed to unify their thinking, and directly sent troops to attack Yunguo...
