Chapter 19 The Great Victory of Africa and Sichuan is just in time
Chapter 119: Dafeichuan Victory is the right time (second update)
Just as Li Shimin was chasing Jie Li Khan, Li Yuan, who was in Chang'an, was in a state of peace. Since Li Shimin's rescue was urgently reported to Beijing, Li Yuan has not had a good sleep these days.
At this time, the Tang Dynasty was not the Tang Dynasty that beat the Eastern Turks, kicked the Western Turks, and rubbed Xueyantuo, Baekje, and Silla on the ground. The Tang Dynasty was first established and the whole world was enemies. Whether it was the Eastern Turks, Tubo, including Tuyuhun, Tiele, and Xueyantuo, basically all countries and tribes had a disagreement with the Li Tang court.
This is actually impossible. In the world's ethnic forests, things are natural for selection of strong people. A powerful Sui Dynasty made the surrounding countries frightened and unable to sleep. If the Li Tang court was just a baby tiger with baby teeth, it would be a nightmare for their tribes to grow into a tiger. So they didn't want to watch the Li Tang court develop and have the strength to face the battle. They didn't have the strength to throw black bricks and beat sticks like Tuguhun and Xueyantuo tribes.
Just as Li Shimin's urgent report came to Beijing, the Khan Yinan of Xueyantuo tribe sent an envoy Bayegu into Chang'an. After all, Li Yuan was an emperor who had been in the past four years and almost five years. The Xueyantuo Khanate Kingdom entered Chang'an at this time, and he must have bad intentions. Li Yuan called Pei Ji to discuss countermeasures.
Li Yuan looked at Pei Ji's arrival and asked hurriedly: "What do Yi Nan want to do?"
"Report to Your Majesty, Xue Yantuo is here to request trade and trade!" Pei Ji said: "Of course, this is a guise, and they are also bad people! They claimed that the Xue Yantuo tribe suffered a severe snow disaster, and hoped that the Tang Dynasty court could sell one million stones of grain to the Xue Yantuo tribe!"
"Isn't there no grain of one million stones of food in the Tang Dynasty!" Li Yuan sneered: "Does Xueyantuo's tribe have money?"
Pei Ji shook his head and said, "There are 104 people in the Xueyantuo delegation. They carried 241 war horses and sixteen camels, and there was nothing else!"
"I know, I know!" Li Yuan was so angry that his face turned pale and pointed outside the hall and roared: "They are blackmailing, this is blackmailing... If I free up my hands, I will definitely remove Xue Yantuo's troops from now on..."
Pei Ji opened his mouth, but made no sound.
Li Yuan knocked on the handrail on the imperial throne and asked lightly: "Do you think I should tolerate it and shouldn't express dissatisfaction to Xueyantuo's tribe too early?"
Pei Ji nodded with difficulty and said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, you know that our situation is passive at the moment. Chen Ying's main force, Tubo people are involved in Suzhou, while Tuyuhun is stirring up trouble on Xizhou Road, and Hedong... Our Tang Dynasty is full of enemies, so we can only fight far and near to attack. After all, Xue Yantuo has no direct border with our Tang Dynasty for the time being!"
Li Yuan smiled bitterly and said, "It's a good habit to wait for the time to move. Unfortunately, this habit only belongs to young people. My body is not as good as before. But I really can't compromise with Xue Yantuo. Once I compromise, Pei Qing, do you believe it or not, a hundred and eighty tribes will emerge tomorrow and blackmail me money and food. No matter how abundant the Tang Dynasty's treasury is, it may not be able to fill their greedy appetite!"
Speaking of this, Li Yuan whispered to Pei Ji: "Otherwise, you fool the Xueyantuo people and let them stabilize them for the time being. I need to confirm the safety of Longyoudao. If the Tubo people retreated in the cold winter, then I will make good calculations with Jie Li Khan!"
Pei Ji smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister may not be delayed for long. The Xueyantuo people have a very tough attitude. They have already put aside their words. If Your Majesty does not give them a reply, their Yi Nan Khan will die in our Tang Dynasty with tens of thousands of troops from Xueyantuo's tribe!"
Hearing this, Li Yuan almost recovered. After a long time, two words popped out from his teeth: "Despicable..."
This is the blackmail from Xueyantuo Khanate. If they don’t come, they will come to take it themselves. Now Li Shimin from Hedong is surrounded by Dingxiang City, and his life and death are unpredictable, and Chen Ying’s troops have not been heard for a long time.
Pei Ji covered his head and said, "Your Majesty, the envoy Bayegu said that they will return to Xueyantuo early the next morning, so..."
Li Yuan said angrily: "Then summon Ba Yegu the day after tomorrow!"
Li Yuan was in a bad mood, very bad. He tasted delicacies and tasted no pleasure. Even the charming eyes of Concubine Yi Shu didn't look like Li Yuan didn't look like this.
When Li Yuan learned that he was not willing to eat and had a meal, Li Xiuning carried his son Chen Qian to the Wude Hall of Tai Chi Palace to visit Li Yuan. Chen Qian, who had just learned to crawl, was very strong, and he didn't know how he learned it. He liked to pull his beard the most. Li Jiancheng hugged Chen Qian once, and his beard was pulled at least dozens of.
When Li Yuan hugged Chen Qian, Chen Qian also pulled Li Yuan's gray beard. Li Yuan was in a bad mood and did not hug Chen Qian, Chen Qian immediately curled his lips and cried.
Li Yuan had no choice but to grin and hug Chen Qian.
Li Xiuning looked at the worry between Li Yuan's eyebrows and asked in a relaxed manner: "Dad, what news is there in Erlang!"
Li Yuan shook his head and said, "There is no news yet!"
"Actually, there is no news, it's good news!" Li Xiuning received a son who was tired of playing from Li Yuan's arms, and said carelessly: "Dad, why not be as good as me in Hedong!"
Li Yuan shook his head and said, "I am a general in the Tang Dynasty and have good plans like rain. Why do you still have to worry about you, a woman? Besides, you have just given birth to a child and your body has not recovered yet, so you can't bump in the moment!"
"But Erlang..." Li Xiuning thought for a while and said, "Dad, I'm a little worried about Erlang!"
Li Xiuning's words suddenly came to Li Yuan's heart. Not only Li Xiuning was worried, but Li Yuan would be relieved? Hedong was too involved, and the Bingzhou General Administration was very large, with twenty-four prefectures. Once Li Shimin is defeated, or Hedong Taiyuan is occupied by the Turks, even if it is taken back later, a ruin will be taken away...
This is not the most important thing. Li Yuan can still bear losing one or two cities. The key is that Li Yuan really can't bear the pain of losing his son.
Li Xiuning said: "The Hu people feared power but did not have virtue. If the Tang Dynasty could attack the Turks, other tribes would definitely submit a petition." "How to attack the pain?" Li Yuan smiled bitterly at this moment.
At this moment, the Zhongchangshi came in and reported: "Fu Yi, the Minister of the Honglu Temple, asked to see Your Majesty!"
When Li Xiuning saw that Li Yuan had a minister who needed to be received, she picked up Chen Qian and said, "Dad, since that's the case, I'll go back first!"
Li Yuan nodded and said, "Okay!"
In fact, when Li Yuan saw Fu Yi, he found that Fu Yi had actually turned into a panda eye.
Li Yuan asked curiously: "Fu Qing, what's wrong with your eyes!"
When Fu Yi heard this, he almost burst into tears: "Your Majesty, please be the master of your subordinates!"
It turned out that Fu Yi was the head of the Honglu Temple and was responsible for receiving the mission of Xueyantuo's tribe. However, the envoy of Bayegu did not look like an messenger at all. He had a very bad temper and had a very bad attitude. When he came to the West Market, the mission of Xueyantuo's tribe had a forced robbery of the people. When Fu Shenyi summoned Bayegu on behalf of the government, Bayegu gave Fu Yi an old punch.
Poor Fu Yi is just a civil servant, and he does not know martial arts. He is over 50 years old, so he is not the opponent of Bayegu in his thirties. If it weren't for the Tang army soldiers, Fu Yi might have died.
Li Yuan was so angry that he ordered Fu Yi to summon Ba Yegu.
However, when the order was issued, Li Yuan realized the taste. Beating Fu Yi was probably just Ba Yegu deliberately, with the purpose of accepting Li Yuan's summons in advance.
However, when Bayegu came to Taiji Hall, Li Jiancheng also attended the meeting in Taiji Hall.
Man was still very arrogant towards the Dukes of the Li Tang Dynasty. He bowed to Li Yuan and regarded him as a salute.
Li Jiancheng was so angry that his face turned pale, but Li Yuan asked lightly: "You are on the quest to the Tang Dynasty. I heard that you want to buy food from the Tang Dynasty? But in this era, heavy snow is about to block the road. Yi Nan Khan wants to buy food, but the timing is wrong!"
Bayegu shook his head and said, "Master Li misunderstood. We have no money!"
Li Yuan stayed, looked at Bayegu carefully, then sat back to his seat, scratched his chin and said, "Do you want to borrow food?"
Bayegu smiled and shook his head, "The noble Yi Nan Khan doesn't want to bow his head. He said that if a king is used to bowing his head, the crown will fall."
After hearing Baye Gu's words, Li Jiancheng became interested. Since they didn't want to borrow and had no money to buy, they refused to bow their heads. He wanted to know what Baye Gu used to induce the court to give them food.
Li Yuan smiled faintly and said, "What do you want to take to leave this million stone of grain?"
Bayegu stretched out his hands: "Is tens of thousands of iron cavalry enough?"
"Oh!" Although Li Yuan's face was filled with a dissatisfaction smile, in fact, his hands hiding in his sleeves were trembling: "I hope to hear it clearly!"
"Our Xueyantu Khan country has tens of thousands of elite cavalry. If Lord Li satisfied our Xueyantu Khan country, our Xueyantu Khan country would develop tens of thousands of string control men to help the Tang Dynasty court and defeat the Eastern Turks."
Li Jiancheng's eyebrows thumped: "What if we, Datang, don't agree?"
"Don't agree, that's very simple. We, the Yi Nan Khan, will order tens of thousands of cavalry, and it's hard to get off the enemy!" Ba Yegu smiled coldly and said, "We just need to use the swords of our Xueyantuo tribe warriors to get it!"
Li Yuan said: "I can understand that you are a threat, right?"
"If Lord Li thinks this way, it's understandable!" Bayetan smiled coldly and said, "I will leave Chang'an tomorrow. Lord Li can never regret it!"
A blue veins bulged around Li Yuan's neck. Li Yuan pointed at Ba Yegu and did not say a word for a long time: "You..."
After Ba Yegu finished speaking, he didn't care how angry Li Yuan was, and walked straight out of the hall.
At the same time, a cavalry carrying a five-sided triangular flag ran wildly. He held a red bamboo tube in his hand and shouted loudly: "Great victory, great victory, Dafeichuan, Dafeichuan... General Chen's army burned Dafeichuan, and the 50,000 troops under Tubo Subiru were wiped out..."
The fast horse of eight hundred miles advanced all the way east and arrived in Chang'an in a blink of an eye.
"Good news, good news..." The knight immediately panted: "Dafeichuan victory, General Chen wiped out all the 50,000 troops under Su Biru...Dafeichuan victory..."
This roar immediately attracted the attention of passers-by.
Many people in Chang'an heard about the Tubo invasion of Longyou and Hehuang. Now they heard about the great victory, and some people couldn't tell the difference between real and fake, but then a report was sent to the Ministry of War...
"Dafeichuan Victory!" The knight pressed the handle of the knife, and when he heard the accent, he knew that he had come from outside the pass. He said in an accent outside the pass: "I am hereby the order of the Grand Chief of Liangzhou, His Highness, the King of Qi, to report the victory!"
