Great Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 223 235 Give me three thousand cavalry to take Fengzhou

After the sky-shattering cannon sounded, the entire Dashi army, which had been moving slowly, fell into a panic.In particular, the horses and chariots they transported supplies were torn apart in an instant, and the food inside was instantly ignited and burned to a pile of ashes.

After blasting once, there was another burst of Tang Jun's shocking shouts from behind.Those Dashi soldiers were in a panic at this time, so naturally they didn't dare to fight the Tang army, so they didn't even rescue the supplies, and fled to the west desperately.

However, what they never imagined in their dreams was that in fact, there were no pursuers behind them at all, and some were just row after row of Loud Dukes!

The real Tang army was chasing the Persian troops at this time.

The army of Dashi was hit by a landmine and lost its supplies. Even if it could return to the Mediterranean Sea alive, it would suffer heavy losses and be exhausted. This kind of army must not be used for combat without three to five days or even more than half a month of self-cultivation, otherwise If you do, you will die.

Therefore, the soldiers of Datang wisely chose the Persians who were more threatening.

In this war in the Mediterranean, the Persians are destined to be one of the winners, because the main force of the Great Food is still in the south. Once Rome invades Armenia, the Great Food will definitely move south and return to them. As for the Khorasan region east of the Zagros Mountains and the northwest of the Persian Gulf, it will become his Persian and Roman meals.

Rome occupied Egypt and Armenia, and bordered on three sides by the Great Food Kingdom. They certainly did not dare to go east and expose their backs to Persia and the Great Food. Therefore, the Khorasan region will inevitably fall into the hands of Persia and become The barrier between Dashi and Datang.

At this point, the Great Food Kingdom will no longer be a threat to Datang, only Persia, because it borders Datang in an all-round way, will inevitably become a serious threat to Datang in the future.

In order to reduce the threat of this enemy as much as possible, Datang could only choose to make him his main target.

This time, Xue Yuanchao, the young general who led the troops to chase, must have been faster than Persia, but they did not pursue with all their strength, but hung behind and wiped out Persia's logistics troops in a leisurely manner.

This battle against Datang was the most relaxing one, they didn't need to worry at all, they had time and energy.Because this time, the rear of the Tang Dynasty was stable. Whether it was the Uighurs in the north or the Pyu Kingdom and Queen Guo in the south, they were all extremely honest now.

Of course, this is also the fact that they don't know about Xi Mian at all.

This chase lasted a total of ten days. During these ten days, Datang wiped out a total of [-] Persians, and all of them were some exhausted people behind. He retreated, and they continued to move forward, and he followed them like tarsus maggots, making those Persians hate them to the extreme.

They are not afraid to fight Datang. Although the situation in the west is urgent, it is not yet time for them to take action, but these Tang people are too hateful. Such a powerful army does not fight them head-on, but uses them instead. He has tried all kinds of tricks, and he is simply not a son of man.

Facts have proved that powerful enemies are terrifying, and powerful and shameless enemies are even more terrifying.In this pursuit of Xue Yuanchao, almost no soldiers were lost, and the only ones who were injured were sprained because they walked too fast, otherwise, they would have been seriously injured.

Just killing more than 5 people in Persia so easily, this can be regarded as the most successful battle in the history of the Tang Dynasty.Although it was a coincidence, the result can already be recorded in the annals of history.

After driving away the Persians, Li Chengqian sent a large number of people to build a city wall that stretched for thousands of miles near the Suleiman Mountains and the Hindu Kush Mountains!
The stone and cement were all transported by train and tractor, and because there were countless slaves from Japan, Pyu, and Chenla, coupled with cranes and excavators, the construction of these city walls was naturally extremely light.

When it was heard that Datang not only took back the Turks and even some territories that originally belonged to Persia and Dashi, the Ashina Empire of the Uighur clan was shocked, and then sent a large number of envoys to the Tang Dynasty to ask for help. and courtship.

As for the envoys of the Ashina Empire, Li Chengqian killed them all regardless of principle, and hung their heads on the top of Fengzhou City.

He is a dignified prince of a country, cooperated with Li Ke and Zuo Ming to set up Yugu, which was first arranged by Li Ke and Zuo Ming, to operate in Turkic for so long, but was ruined by a Uighur rebellion, how could he not hate it?

Not only him, but the other courtiers of Datang also secretly hated him, and they already wished to hit the door.

If the Uighurs had come to ask for peace earlier, they might have thought about it, but now that the overall situation has been settled, they are already a group of fish and meat, so they came to ask for peace?How could they agree?

Among them, Li Shimin has the most temper.His illness was fueled by the Uighurs, and now that he is less than sixty, his whole body is already lifeless. Naturally, he can't wait to kill the Uighurs.

At this time, Zuo Ming was in the Kingdom of God, and no one was going to stop him. He was also happy to indulge, so he wrote a huge banner of war and hung it on the top of Fengzhou City.

It reads: "Uyghur dog clan, it's not appropriate to live a dog, you have to be a dead dog! I have pacified the three thousand miles of grassland to the west today, and I will go north in a few days, killing you and others without leaving a piece of armor. In this battle, no one will be left alive. Those who want to save their lives should report to my Northwest Protectorate Mansion within half a year and be slaves for ten years, otherwise, prepare a mat to wrap the corpse!"

The old Li Shimin is really arrogant, he seems to have forgotten the plague in Goguryeo, and once again threatened to do the thing of extermination.

It's just amazing that no minister jumped out to stop him this time.

Wei Zheng is dead, Xiao Yu is dead, and Yu Shinan and Li Jing are also dead. The only ones who have that qualification are a crown prince and a Tang king, but the crown prince is also full of anger towards the Uighur, and the Tang king is far away. Thousands of miles away, so the current Li Shimin really has no restrictions at all.

In fact, the same is true of Li Shimin in history. After losing his eldest grandson queen, Li Shimin's state became a lot more stupid. Not only was he violent and irritable, but he was also extremely cruel when he killed people.

Although Empress Changsun is here now, but because her appearance has not changed, she dare not appear in Chang'an again, so she has been staying in Dongkaidao and not asking about world affairs. Under such circumstances, the lonely and depressed Li Shimin is not full of hostility. Ghost.

Li Shimin's declaration, which was extremely rude to the extreme, immediately caused a shock in the entire Ashina Empire, and many passionate fighters called for a battle against Datang.

Most of those people were young generals, they had never seen anything in the world, so they didn't know the horror of Datang at all.

Facing the rhetoric of those young people, the generals of the older generation raised their eyelids and smiled coldly.Those young people obviously looked down on them, thinking that they were too weak to even dare to fight Datang.It's just that they really look down on those bastards who haven't even grown their hair yet.

They would not explain to them why they refused to send troops to the south, but stayed in the city like a tortoise and waited for Datang's attack.Because even if you say it, those people won't believe it, and it doesn't make any sense.

What they want to know most now is why Dashi and Persia suddenly withdraw. Although their country claims to be an empire, it is actually just a bigger kingdom. It cannot even be compared with Dashi and Persia, let alone Talk about the mighty Datang.Without the support of the two great empires, they would always be quails in front of the fierce tiger of Datang.

"Shut up you bastards!"

Finally, the Emperor Ashina, who couldn't bear the ignorance of the generals all those years ago, yelled.

"Fight! Fight! Fight! What do you bastards know? Do you think I don't want to fight? But do you know that the two million empires of Persia and Dashi failed to defeat Datang! I Uighurs have only 200 fighters in total, what do you want me to fight? Take the lives of your whole family?"

Porun is really annoyed, the domestic mood is too high, this is not a good thing, because this is a battle that cannot be won at all.

If possible, he would have fought with Persia and Dashi a few years ago.That way there might be hope, but now that Dashi is gone and Persia is gone, Datang's enemies are only them in the north, and they don't even have a place to escape.

Porun really regretted it a bit. If she hadn't betrayed the Tang Dynasty, she would at least be the king of a country now. At worst, she would just submit to Li Shimin. Anyway, Uighur has been a vassal state for hundreds of years.

"Your Majesty! The power of the Tang Dynasty is nothing more than artillery. We have countless cavalry, so why not be afraid? If you rush all the way to the past, you may be able to grab some artillery... If your majesty doesn't believe it, why don't you give me three thousand cavalry for ten days? I will take Fengzhou City for you!"

It's just that Porun's words obviously didn't wake up those proud young generals, and one of them even volunteered.

Seeing that man was still trying to die, Po Run was really annoyed, but then she nodded with a sullen face, "Okay! Okay! Okay! Since you are so brave, I will give you 3000 people. If you take If you don’t leave Fengzhou City, you don’t have to come back!”

The emperor agreed to his request, and the general was overjoyed immediately, and thanked him immediately.He felt that his day had come.

Not only him, but the rest of the former generals also had expressions of excitement and envy. They had all seen the walls of Fengzhou City, and they felt that such a ruined city could be breached casually, let alone with With three thousand elite cavalry.

Those who are ignorant are fearless, there is nothing wrong with saying this...
