[Wu Zetian] Queen's Road

Chapter 22

General Su was dumbfounded when he heard this: What do you mean that you are only allowed to lose but not allowed to win?

Little Li Xianggong didn't care whether General Su understood what he meant, so he directly called two personal guards and handed them over to Su Dingfang.

"You follow the general to Wuhai to meet the enemy, and act according to my plan..." Mr. Li took out two kits from his sleeve and handed them to the two guards respectively, only to let them follow Su Dingfang to the east of Wuhai Let's look at Dongru City again.

The two personal guards hurriedly responded, and then stood behind Su Dingfang.

When General Su saw that Mr. Li had actually sent two supervisors to him, he immediately felt bitter.

Sure enough, a scholar has a lot of minds, he promised to follow his orders, but he still did it ==

"Okay, general, let's get ready to fight..." Seeing that Su Dingfang was still standing there foolishly, Li Sanlang drove him out with a wave of his sleeve.

Su Dingfang left the tent of the Chinese army in dismay, with a dejected look, which made several generals who were sent by Mr. Li to discuss matters very surprised.

But not long after, these generals also left the tent of the Chinese Army one by one with strange expressions. Similarly, each of them was followed by two of Mr. Li's personal soldiers.

On April [-]th of the seventh year of Xianqing, General Zuo Wuwei and Anji Ambassador Su Dingfang led thousands of cavalry to fight against the Tubo garrison Dayan in the west of Wuhai. As a result, the Tang army was defeated and fled hundreds of miles.

When Wu Xu received this battle report, his expression was very strange.

Well, she didn't expect that Su Dingfang would be defeated one day at all, and the word "flee in embarrassment" in the battle report always made her think that Li Sanlang was joking!

The news of Tang Jun's defeat quickly spread throughout Chang'an. Everyone was in danger for a while, and there was even a quarrel in the court.

You must know that the geographical location of Tuyuhun is very delicate, but it is directly connected to Guanzhong, and it is condescending.

Once Datang loses control of the Tuyuhun area, Tubo in the west can directly threaten Chang'an!

Therefore, when the defeat came, both civil servants and generals in the court were filled with righteous indignation, and each of them called for a battle to go to Tuyuhun to beat up the Tubo army!

Among them, Guo Daifeng, the later famous general, participated in the battle against Goguryeo and served as Li Ji's deputy for a while. He was very dissatisfied with Li Xiaojiu's Majesty who only sent Su Dingfang and Xue Rengui to Tuyuhun this time, and wrote many times asking to lead troops to the West Sea Fight to the death with Lu Dongzan!

Of course, in addition to most of the main combatants, there are also many people who expressed dissatisfaction with Datang's intervention in Tuyuhun and Tubo.

Obviously it is a matter of other countries, what is Datang meddling in, this is all right, if you want to fight Tubo, you can't beat it, it's really a steal!

Most of these people are descendants of honorable families who failed the scientific examination and became officials. They obviously disapproved of His Majesty Li Xiaojiu's conquest.

Shouldn't peace be the most important thing in the kingdom of heaven?

Moreover, how can a majestic celestial country be as knowledgeable as a barbarian like Tubo?

To fight them?

just forget it!

These people took the example of His Majesty Li Er's conquest of Goguryeo three times in the past, which caused the people's livelihood to decline and the treasury to be empty in the last years of Zhenguan, and they admonished His Majesty Li Xiaojiu wantonly.

His Majesty Li Xiaojiu was furious in court. These people wanted to say that he was not friendly to his neighbors, that he was going all over the place to conquer, and that he was suspected of being militaristic, but they brought his father out to compare with him!

This is the most intolerable thing for Li Zhi, not one of them!

The fact that the Emperor lost his temper in court reached Wu Xu's ears almost at the speed of light, and Wu Xu, regardless of the inconvenience, immediately asked Awei and others to prepare a chariot to go to the court to rescue the scene, but her chariot hadn't left yet. Well, the bad news of His Majesty Li Xiaojiu's recurrence of wind disease has come back!

Wu Xu was about to die of anger, and this was the one who didn't have eyesight, and made his family Li Xiaojiu angry!

Got it!

Now there is no need to rush to Hanyuan Hall, everyone is waiting for His Majesty Li Xiaojiu to be carried back in Zichen Hall!

Li Xiaojiu's condition stabilized after tossing until the second watch that day.

Although Li Xiaojiu's wind attack this time was not as severe as the last time, he still had a terrible headache, and he couldn't sleep all night for several days afterwards, let alone work normally!

There was no other way, so Wu Xu had no choice but to carry Li Hong and Li Xian's brothers to the court with her big belly. Now it's a troubled time, and it's impossible for no one to sit in court!

Old man Li Ji has been on sick leave, Li Sanlang and Xu Yaxiang are not in the center, Xu Jingzong has a lot of literary talents, but a small belly, he is very unreliable.Others such as Xu Yushi and others are still inexperienced, and Wu Xu dare not rely too much on them for a while.

However, Wei Shuyu and Changsun Quan were originally good helpers in assisting the government. As a result, Wu Xu checked the cause of Li Xiaojiu's illness, and found that the people who participated in the admonition were all the old and stubborn "anti-New Deal, anti-Wu clan" that Wu Xu knew well. In addition, there are actually two hardcore imperialists, Wei Shuyu and Changsun Quan!

No wonder Li Xiaojiu is so angry!

Even Wu Xu was furious!

However, after Wu Xu carefully read the memorials of Wei Shuyu and Changsun Quan, and asked Wang's servant to review the scene of going to court that day, he couldn't help but remain silent.

The military action against Tubo was indeed a little hasty. After all, the main attention of the Tang Dynasty in recent years has been on the east. The western region is not only complicated in terrain, but also in the regional ethnic relations. Even if it has been gradually sinicized, it is difficult to guarantee one or two more A rebel like Ashina Helu!

Changsun Quan emphasized one point in the memorial book: King Tuyuhun is not a good person. If Datang helps him restore the country, there is no guarantee that he will not bite Datang back!How unfair would it be to the soldiers of the empire if the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty fought desperately to get back the land on the front line and returned it to the other party for nothing?

Therefore, he does not support Datang to fight Tuyuhun against Tubo. It is better to make an agreement with Tubo directly and carve up Tuyuhun. Of course, Changsun Quan will not write this point clearly. Tang and Tubo are relatives of nephew and uncle, so they shouldn't meet each other because of another relative. It's better to sit down and have a good talk...

As for what to talk about, you know~~

Wu Xu had to say that Changsun Quan's plan was poisonous enough, but Li Xiaojiu would definitely not agree to this plan of slapping himself in the face.

As for Wei Shuyu, he paid more attention to speaking with facts, and Zezi, who was admonishing him, was more acrimonious.

It is a fact that the Tang Dynasty has been fighting for years, it is also a fact that the people's livelihood is in decline, and it is even more a fact that Su Dingfang was defeated!

And the Tubo army is not Baekje, Japanese and others, even His Majesty Li Er was very afraid, otherwise, how could such a thing as Princess Wencheng's entry into Tibet happen? !

Therefore, Wei Shuyu asked His Majesty Li Xiaojiu to face up to the strength of the empire, and not to become complacent just because he conquered the small countries in the east, thinking that with the current national strength, Tubo can be wiped out on the basis—this Wei Shuyu saw that Li Zhi and Wu Xu seemed to kill them. Tubo's thoughts are gone!

Although Changsun Quan's words were not pleasant, they were still within His Majesty Li Xiaojiu's tolerance. After all, it was a good choice to eat Tuyuhun without bloodshed!

But Wei Shuyu's words are really exciting. Could it be that his father is afraid of Tubo, so should he be afraid of Tubo's failure?

"It's no wonder that Jiulang is angry..." Wu Xu felt angry when he read the playbook of the two at the beginning, but after thinking about it carefully, Wei Shuyu and Changsun Quan didn't understand her and Li Xiaojiu's plan for the Western Regions, so it's no wonder there was such a thing. Thoughts are justifiable.It's just that the two brothers-in-law of theirs were a bit unlucky, and just in time for Li Xiaojiu to go to clean up some people, he came to advise...

The emperor is so angry that he can't run away if he is punished by hanging on the wall!

"The two gentlemen wrote the letter because they didn't understand Jiulang and your wife's painstaking efforts. This..." Wang's servant was also somewhat contradictory at this time, arguing that Wei Shuyu and Changsun Quan gave his family Jiulang a gas disease, and he should be severely condemned. Yes, but Sixteen Niangs and Twenty-One Niangs cried so much because of their husbands here, he was really embarrassed not to intercede for the two gentlemen, it was really embarrassing...

Wu Xu didn't notice the entanglement of Wang's servant, she was still thinking about the fact that Su Dingfang was beaten by the Tubo army and fled...

Anyway, she always felt that this battle was a bit strange.

"Wang Weng, go and send the prince and King Pei over. I have something to discuss with them..." After Wu Xu finished speaking, he added: "See if Dalang (referring to Wu Minzhi) is at the duty station. and called..."

Wang's servant hurriedly agreed to go.

-----------------------------------Separation Line of the Battle of Wuhai------------ -------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------------

"President, that Su Dingfang you mentioned is nothing to be afraid of, that fellow has already been beaten to the bum by me and fled away!"

Dayan Mangbuzhi is a well-known general of the Dayan tribe, and also the general Lu Dongzan specially selected to guard Wuhai this time.

A few days ago, Dayan Mangbuzhi's garrison on the west coast of Wuhai discovered Su Dingfang's [-] cavalry, and immediately reported to the coach Dayanmangbuzhi.

Dayan Mangbuzhi has heard for a long time that Su Dingfang was a famous general in the Tang Dynasty. He can only sigh that when Su Dingfang was stationed in the Western Regions, he was still in some cities. Now he finally has a plan to fight Su Dingfang. Ken let it go, and immediately ordered [-] soldiers to go to the west bank of Wuhai to fight Su Dingfang...

As a result, at first Su Dingfang was indeed brave enough to overwhelm Dayan Mangbuzhi, and then suddenly there was the sound of beating gold objects from the Tang army, and Su Dingfang ran away with Tang Jun without looking back!

Somehow in this battle, it was rumored that he, Dayan Mangbuzhi, used hundreds of cavalry to beat thousands of Tang cavalry away, and even beat Tang general Su Dingfang to flee. Even Lu Dongzan was surprised when he heard the news Abnormally, I made a special trip from Tuyuhun’s Wangzhang to Wuhai to see Dayanmang Buzhi...

Dayan Mangbuzhi has always been conceited, and feels that although the rumors are a little exaggerated, the fact is that he beat Su Dingfang to the point of embarrassment and escaped!

Therefore, as soon as he saw the Prime Minister Lu Dongzan, Dayan Mangbuchi couldn't help but want to ridicule his defeated subordinates!

However, Lu Dongzan could not help frowning after hearing Dayan Mangpoche's account of the battle on the west bank of Wuhai that day.

"You mean, he only brought about a thousand riders to attack the camp on the west bank of Wuhai?"

The author has something to say: It snowed today =. =

This is the first time I have seen such a big spring snow, it is really rare...
