Since Li Longji was able to serve as the emperor of the Tang Dynasty for so many years, and even created a prosperous Kaiyuan era, it was naturally because he was a rare wise emperor. Although he had an almost crazy obsession with his throne, he was still in the country. When it comes to interests, he will not be vague.
Since we can't do anything to Ye Qingcheng, we can turn him into the power of the Tang Dynasty. This will be beneficial to both parties. The most important thing is that Ye Qingcheng doesn't care about what Li Longji did to him when he was still called Ye Sanlang. , then even if he is really a heinous person, he still won't be able to do it.
Li Longji stood up slowly, walked around the desk twice, and couldn't help but sigh: "I think he is just trying to understand the unfinished things he did when he was Ye Sanlang. I heard that cultivators must complete their studies when practicing. Get rid of all the things that have troubled your mind, otherwise you will perish because of your inner demons when you go through the tribulation. He is too good, and this world is destined to not be able to keep him, and we don’t know when he will join the ranks of cultivators in the future. , is he still thinking about the Tang Dynasty in his heart... Probably not, otherwise he wouldn't be hiding among the Tang army in order to solve his inner demons."
Although Gao Lishi on the side didn't know much about the world of cultivators and cultivators, he could understand Ye Qingcheng's thoughts: "Your Majesty, couldn't it be that he really wants to contribute to the Tang Dynasty?"
Li Longji was slightly startled when he heard this. Yes, why do he have to think in a bad direction? Couldn't it be that Ye Qingcheng really wanted to make his own contribution to Datang?
"Gao Weng, do you think I have changed?" Suddenly, Li Longji suddenly turned to look at Gao Lishi and asked sincerely.
"Your Majesty, as long as you are a human being, you will change."
Yes, Li Longji shook his head helplessly. As long as he is a human being, he will change, but he doesn't know what he will become in the future.
…………
At the end of February in the first year of Tianbao in the Tang Dynasty, Wang Zhongsi, the military governor of Shuofang, after completing the battle of Sanggan River, sent the chiefs of the two tribes, Wang Huaixin, Li Yanchong and Li Huaixiu to Chang'an to await Emperor Xuanzong's decision. Then 200,000 elites from each town were gathered. Except for the wounded soldiers who were injured in the battle of Sanggan River, the entire army marched to Mobei and approached the Turkic Khanate's Yazhang eight miles away. This move shocked the northern barbarians. , while being shocked, more importantly, feeling scared.
They almost all knew that Wang Zhongsi gathered elites from various towns to fight with the Xi Qi Allied Forces on the banks of the Sanggan River. However, what they did not expect was that the battle ended so quickly, and the number of casualties suffered by the Tang Army was unimaginably small. It was almost unnecessary At the same time, they also captured a large number of war horses from the Xi Qi coalition, greatly increasing their combat power.
They had little information and did not know how the Xi-Qi Allied Forces were defeated. However, as nomads on the grassland, they certainly knew the strength and bravery of the Xi-Qi Allied Forces. A total of 200,000 troops were wiped out, and the Tang army suffered no casualties. Remember, this cannot be due to the gap in combat effectiveness. They have all dealt with the Tang army and knew that although the Tang army was powerful, it could not reach this level. It must be because of Wang Zhongsi's military strategy that led to such a result. These northern barbarians became interested in Wang Zhongsi, the rarely popular Shuofang Jiedushi, and began to collect information about him. When the Tang army approached, they finally knew that although Wang Zhongsi's military strategy also accounted for Many factors were involved, but more of the strategy came from a captain named Ye Qingcheng of Shuofang Army's scout camp. He has now been promoted to captain, and the spies' reports indicate that this person is extremely dangerous, which makes the northern barbarians a little worried. I'm confused, why would a mere scout general be called extremely dangerous?
As time went on, details about the Battle of Sanggan River continued to spread to the north. Only then did these guys know why the spies put an "extremely dangerous" label on Ye Qingcheng. When you know After a mere three people were able to capture two tribal chiefs alive among an army of 200,000 people, you would think that these two people were extremely dangerous.
So they naturally turned the focus of their investigation to Ye Qingcheng, but time did not wait for them. Before their spies sent back Ye Qingcheng's information, the Tang army had already arrived eight and twenty miles away from Han'er'er and set up camp. Troops were stationed on the spot.
In the past, even if Li Longji wanted to control the three tribes of Bashimi, Uighur and Geluolu, he relied on envoys, but the last envoy Zuo Yulin, General Sun Laonu, killed Ashina Gudu in the three tribes, and Bashi The Mi chief established himself as the queen and had a stalemate with them, which caused the three tribes to have some bad relations with the Tang Dynasty for a while. In particular, the Basi Mi tribe became more and more arrogant after becoming independent. Even the envoys sent by Li Longji during the process He ignored them, which was why Li Longji was determined to deal with the three of them and the rest of the Turks.
In his opinion, it is okay for you Bashmi to establish yourself as Khan, but it is not okay if you do not surrender to me, the Tang Dynasty.
The reason why we are stationed eight miles and twenty miles away from Han'er is because we need to find out the movements of the three tribes and their attitudes. If they do not cooperate, they will be the first to be wiped out. Although the three tribes are The combined strength of the two armies is definitely not inferior to that of the Xi Qi Alliance, but that requires uniting. If they are defeated separately, they will not even be able to resist. Before the troops set out, Wang Zhongsi had already collected a lot of information. The information showed that the relationship between the three tribes was not as harmonious as it seemed on the surface, especially when Chief Bashimi established himself as Jiedi Ishi Khan. He also named the other two tribes as left and right Yehuhou without authorization, which aroused dissatisfaction between the two tribes.
Let’s talk about Ge Luolu first. They have great ambitions wandering around the Jinshan area, and the ferocity of their tribe is second to none among the three tribes. With the character of their chief who plots to assassinate Heishan, he will never sit back and watch such a thing happen, let alone Maybe Bathmi, who he had always despised and whose military strength was similar to his, stepped on his head. Then there is Uihe. When it comes to Uihe, there is something to say. Their unit has a higher degree of acceptance of Chinese culture, and their troops are well-trained. They are not as scattered as the other two units, but have regular centralized training, which makes their The combat effectiveness far exceeds that of the other two, but the other two are stuck in their own ways, unable to understand the strength gap between them and Uighurs, and are still dreaming of Khan's dream.
In fact, for Wang Zhongsi, the most threatening among the three is not the self-reliant Khan Bashmi, but the Uighurs with real strength. Because they are well-trained, they are more capable than the Xiqi Allied Forces. It's dangerous. If possible, he really doesn't want to fight with Uighur.
