Chapter 674 When the Conspiracy Is Underway (2)
The three words "A person with a heart" accidentally touched the softest part of Li Yuanchang's heart, and Li Chengqian's name appeared in his mind.
Damn it, why did you forget this guy? Li Yuanchang's scalp began to numb, and when he thought of Li Chengqian, his heart couldn't help but tighten.
Li Yuanchang was arrogant and arrogant. Although the goddess of luck did not take good care of him, the goddess of wisdom did not abandon him. The hatred between Li Chengqian and him disappeared because of his departure from the Tang Dynasty. Not to mention now, Li Yuanchang would not believe this kind of thing even five years ago.
Now he just doesn't know where Li Chengqian will attack him. As a prince who has lost power, he must be vigilant at all times and cannot leave any handle for Li Chengqian.
Thinking of this, Li Yuanchang gave a gratitude to the envoy of Tian: "Envoy of Tian, I wonder where you want to set up your first stop?" The implication was that he had plans to travel.
"Your Highness, the foreign minister wants to invite you to my Yutian party. I wonder what your noble is thinking?" The envoy of Yutian looked at the food on the table with disdainful eyes, and then said, "This Gaochang is so neglecting Your Highness, and he has done a bit too much."
This was a provocation, Li Yuanchang knew, but he still couldn't help but feel angry.
Li Yuanchang is a very sensitive person. He thought that he was the prince of the Tang Dynasty and had fallen to the point where he had only four maids and more than ten guards. This gap was unacceptable to him no matter what.
All the experiences in Gaochang made his sensitive nerves constantly stimulated. Based on his anger, the anger in his heart became more and more powerful, but because there was no one around him, he couldn't do it.
"When will the envoy of Khotan leave?" Li Yuanchang suppressed his anger and tried to show peace as much as possible. Although the Khotan man in front of him had seen his embarrassment at this moment, he still tried hard to maintain his only little dignity.
"Assign everything to Your Highness. When Your Highness wants to leave, send someone to inform you." The envoy of Khotan bowed slightly and said apologetically.
If things are abnormal, they will become demons!
He was so polite to a prince who lost his power. In any aspect, the Khotan envoy had done this a little bit.
But Li Yuanchang has no choice now. After Li Chengqian arranged him to the Western Regions, he no longer had any follow-up actions, which made him feel like walking on thin ice. So even if there was any conspiracy in Yutian, he could only bite the bullet and push it up. If he didn't want to become fish on the chopping board, he had to push it up.
So three days later, Li Yuanchang followed the envoy of Khotan on his journey to Khotan during a grand farewell ceremony held by Ju Zhisheng.
At the same time, a caravan traveling from Chang'an was also walking out of Yumen Pass in the morning light and slowly heading towards the depths of the desert.
On the other hand, the 15,000 horse thieves who had been stationed by Qinghai Lake also replaced the Tang army that they were once extremely familiar with. The sound of horses being tear up can be heard vaguely in Fuqi City.
"Xue Rengui, are you really planning to let Baolin return to the team this time? Are you not afraid that that kid will break the plan in an impulse?" Wang Xuance sat in Xue Rengui's tent, wearing a silk jacket, still sweating profusely.
But now he didn't care about this anymore. Yuchi Baolin was about to set off to enter the Western Regions again. For this fool, Wang Xuance was not at ease to let him implement such a huge plan alone.
"He is only responsible for the war and has no plan to destroy him." Xue Rengui was still wearing military uniform, although his face was already hot and covered in sweat.
As the commander of the first army, he sets an example as his duty, especially Xue Rengui has just taken over the Zuo Wuwei, and he has no qualifications and no military achievements. He has to set an example, otherwise he will not be able to manage his group of arrogant soldiers and generals who have followed Qin Qiong.
"This is what I'm worried about. Don't you know Baolin's temperament yet? Even he can forget about the war. You really feel at ease to let him stand alone?" Wang Xuance was a little anxious, and was very dissatisfied with Xue Rengui's tepid attitude.
However, Xue Rengui seemed to have not felt Wang Xuance's anxiousness and said slowly: "It's okay. Baolin is the eldest son of General Yuchi no matter what. The way on the battlefield is the Men'erqing. In the past, it was because he was only responsible for the local battlefield. Now he is responsible for the overall situation. Even if you hold his neck with a knife, he will not be so impulsive anymore."
After all, Wang Xuance is not a military member. Playing with conspiracy and calculations is his strength, but he is still a little worse when it comes to leading troops to fight. He cannot understand what impact the "10,000 enemies" will have on the battle situation once the powerful momentum is revealed.
Therefore, Xue Rengui can only use metaphors such as the general Huzi to relieve Wang Xuance's heart.
Moreover, Wang Xuance is just thinking about the Western Regions, but he has never thought about the Tubo behind him. Like all the court officials, he also believes that the Tubo army on Jishishan is more like a gesture and will not really launch an attack on the Tang army.
But Xue Rengui didn't think so. In his opinion, all Tubo's actions were definitely not as simple as threats. If he didn't pay attention, perhaps these barbarians would really kill them from Jishi Mountain.
It is precisely based on this that Xue Rengui did not lead his troops to enter the Western Regions again. He must stay in Tuyuhun to guard against Tubo, a rising country.
Because of Li Chengqian's various operations, the Western Regions are no longer the Western Regions in history. If nothing unexpected happens, the Western Regions will only become more chaotic as time goes by, and wars may break out even if they occur.
No one can be sure whether the Tubo people on Jishi Mountain will take advantage of the situation to rob. If they do not want the army deep into the Western Regions to become rootless trees, the best way is to block the Tubo people on the plateau so that they can't get down.
These are some judgments made by Xue Rengui based on the current situation in the Western Regions. There is no theoretical basis, but more of a feeling. He is a general and cannot talk about things with feelings, so he can only suppress things with power.
If Wang Xuance doesn't understand, then he doesn't understand. Military affairs do not need to be understood, just obey.
"Brothers, are you ready?" Unlike what Wang Xuance was worried about, Yuchi Baolin was still full of confidence in leading the army alone.
I have never eaten pork and seen pigs running. Can't I remember how the old man beat him? Anyway, the old Yuchi has been bragging at home so much that he was so powerful. At worst, just follow his actions. Yuchi Baolin doesn't believe that the old man can fight a path among all the troops, but he can't!
