bastard seizes tang

Chapter 862
Maybe Lu Dongzan himself couldn't figure out what he did wrong, and somehow became the target of public criticism.

Tang Huang Li Ke stared at him, although he cherished his talent, but for Lu Dongzan who was in the current situation, what Li Ke did was nothing more than setting him on fire and roasting him.

Tubo Zanpu Gongri Gongzan regards him as the biggest obstacle to his stable throne and new successors, and he can't wait to get rid of him soon.

As for the royal families of Zhang Zhung and Su Pi, they also regarded him as a soft persimmon, and wanted to restore the country or please the Tang Dynasty through conquest of him. It seems that there is no other person in the world who is in a more difficult situation than him. people.

But this is far from over, because as Yang Siqian brought Su Pi's news back to Chang'an, Li Ke's heart for the westward expedition has begun. Once the Tang army really suppresses the situation, Lu Dongzan's situation will only become more and more miserable.

What Yang Siqian did was to separate the inside and the outside, and the way of vertical and horizontal, and when it comes to the art of vertical and horizontal, there is no one on the right side of Wang Xuance in the Tang Dynasty. This time, Yang Siqian's westward journey was also led by Wang Xuance. Yang Siqian took King Supi's reply When he came back to Chang'an, he went to Bing Wang Xuance. After Wang Xuance got the news, he immediately went to the palace to report to Li Ke.

Daming Palace, Zichen Palace, and Inner Hall.

"The minister Wang Xuance pays homage to His Majesty." In the inner hall, Wang Xuance paid homage to Li Ke with a smile on his face.

Li Ke was sitting upright on the Zichen Hall, looked at His Highness Wang Xuance who was standing there with a smile on his face, and asked, "Now is not the time to discuss politics, Xuance suddenly came into the palace to see me, but do you have any good news for me?"

Wang Xuance said: "Right now, Tubo Ludongzan has been exiled, and Xiangxiong raised his troops, which is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to go west. For Your Majesty, is there any better news than Tubo's civil strife?"

As soon as Wang Xuance's words came out, Li Ke understood what he meant, and Li Ke continued to ask: "Since it is about the civil strife in Tubo, is there any news from Su Pi?"

Wang Xuance said: "Yang Siqian has returned to the capital, and brought back the reply from Su Pi, as long as His Majesty sends troops to the west, then Su Pi will send troops to respond to His Majesty, and jointly take Tubo with His Majesty."

"Okay, in this way, Tubo's arm has been cut off again. Gong Ri Gong Zan is no more than a child, and he is alone. It is difficult to achieve success. It is just around the corner to break through the Tubo country." Li Ke said with a smile while clapping his hands.

As far as Li Ke is concerned, Lu Dongzan of Zhang Zhung and Su Pi, who is an important source of military supplies on the plateau, are the right-hand men of Tubo Zanpu Gong Ri Gong Zan. Li Ke had cut off Gongri Gongzan's left and right arms, and now there was only one Gongri Gongzan left to deal with.

Gongri Gongzan is not as heroic as Qizong Nongzan, nor as resourceful as Lu Dongzan. In Li Ke's view, Gongri Gongzan is at best a middle-of-the-road person, the master of success, and the young man in the army. Ke naturally wouldn't take him seriously.

What Li Ke said was the truth, but when Wang Xuance heard Li Ke's words, he couldn't help feeling a little worried.

Although Li Ke has been in the army for a long time, Gongri Gongzan, who is not good at using soldiers, is indeed a stunned young man in front of Li Ke, but after all, Tubo is still a big country on the plateau. Dajun, it is not easy to win easily.

It's just that Li Ke is on the verge of getting excited right now. According to common sense, a minister should definitely not pour cold water on Li Ke at this time, and even if there is any advice, it should be reserved for the future.

But Wang Xuance knew Li Ke's resolute nature, and since Li Ke was concerned about this matter, he would implement it immediately. Wang Xuance was worried that he was too late, and Li Ke's imperial edict had already been issued.

Wang Xuance said: "Tubo lost Lu Dongzan first, and then lost Supi. It is indeed a great loss of vitality, but after all, Tubo is a big country on the plateau, so it should not be taken lightly. If you want to break Tubo, you need to plan carefully."

Li Ke naturally understood the meaning of Wang Xuance's words, and Li Ke also understood Wang Xuance's intentions. If it only talked about the understanding of Tubo, Li Ke would probably be the most important person in the Tang Dynasty.To attack Tubo, among other things, the plateau is difficult to climb, and it is a natural moat.

Li Ke said: "I understand Xuan Ce's concern, but Xuan Ce doesn't need to worry about this matter. Although Tubo's current situation is not good, internal and external troubles are the best opportunity for us to attack Tubo, but if we want to attack Tubo, I will not act hastily, I must discuss it carefully with the ministers, think twice before acting."

Li Ke's words caught his ears, and Wang Xuance immediately felt relieved. Right now, the Tang Dynasty has enough troops and well-known generals, and Li Ke knows people well, and has been in the army for a long time. Even if the sect is abandoned to praise the resurrection, Li Ke and Datang will never suffer.

Wang Xuance said: "Your Majesty said that, but I'm too worried."

Li Ke listened to Wang Xuance waving his hands and said with a smile: "If it's just about war, I think I'm not weaker than others, but there is still one thing that bothers me right now, and I need Xuance to explain it to me."

Wang Xuance asked, "I don't know what His Majesty said?"

Li Ke said: "You are my confidant, you should know my thoughts. I have wanted to drive the Western Expedition for a long time, but there is great resistance in the court. I have never had a good chance. Maybe Xuan Ce can help me?"

It has not been a day or two since Li Ke wanted to conquer Tubo in person, but because Li Shimin was injured in the first conquest, there was a lot of opposition in the court to Li Ke's reconquest. You can't go your own way.

At present, Tubo's internal and external troubles are a good opportunity to go on an expedition, but the opportunity for Li Ke's personal expedition has not yet appeared, how can Li Ke not be in a hurry.

As Li Ke said, Wang Xuance is Li Ke's confidant, and Wang Xuance is not surprised by Li Ke's thoughts. Wang Xuance said: "Your Majesty, you should know that Tubo is located on a high plateau. Conquering Goguryeo is even higher, and the resistance in the court is even greater, and if His Majesty wants to conquer it himself, I am afraid it will not be easy."

Li Ke is naturally aware of the resistance in the court today, but he still insisted: "Others don't know what I'm thinking, don't you know? Now that the national power of our Tang Dynasty is growing day by day, Tubo in the west has become the last big stone for our Tang to sweep the world , I want to personally move this big rock for the crown prince, and lay the foundation for the prosperity of my Tang Dynasty forever, so it is imperative for the imperial conquest to be carried out."

In just a few words, Li Ke's determination to go on a personal conquest has been clearly revealed. Wang Xuance is well aware of Li Ke's temperament, and since Li Ke has said so much, he will never break his promise. In this battle of the personal conquest, Li Ke must be fighting deal.

Wang Xuance thought for a while, knowing that it was impossible to persuade Li Ke on this matter, so he said: "If Your Majesty wants to conscript himself, I have a way, but Your Majesty has to agree to one condition."

Li Ke heard the words and asked, "Let's listen."

Wang Xuance said: "Your Majesty will go on an expedition personally, and the Imperial Army is at the center. They will not be alone, and they will not be dangerous. The personal guards, the General Xi, and the elite of the Beiya Army must not leave their bodies for a day."

Li Ke nodded and said, "Okay, I promise you."
