Chapter 2123 Target, the Western Turkic Khanate!

Snow Mountain Horn!

Hearing this sound, everyone trembled in their hearts and turned their heads to look in the direction where the horn sound came from outside the palace.

Everyone knows that at the highest point of the Snow Mountain Temple in the Holy Land of Uzang, there is a huge snow-white horn. It is the sacred object of the temple and the symbol of the highest power of the entire empire, and can only be used by holy monks.

For decades, the horn was rarely used.

Everyone knows that once the horn sounds, something big will happen.

More importantly, every trumpet sound must be accompanied by a prophecy.

"Dalu Qinling, come to the temple!"

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded in the hall. The voice was ancient and contained a power to soothe the soul.

"Holy Monk!"

Hearing this voice, everyone was shocked, even Zao stood up from his seat.

The appearance of the holy monk is no small matter. Could it be that there is a new prophecy passed down in the temple?

King Zao was slightly startled and slightly uneasy.

However, no matter what everyone thought, after saying those words, the aura of the holy monk completely disappeared from the hall, and there was no more movement.

"You guys go down first. I'll go to the temple. As for things in Youzhou, we'll talk about it when I get back!"

Dalun Qinling obviously also thought about the prophecy. His expression was solemn, his sleeves flicked, and he quickly passed through the hall and disappeared from everyone's sight.

Da Lun Qin Ling quickly went to the Daxue Mountain Temple, and no one knew what he talked about there.

But after half a day——

"Crash!"

A carrier pigeon soared from the palace of the Uzang Empire, carrying a handwritten letter about Qin Ling, and flew to Youzhou, a distant place in the east.

After a long period of hesitation, Uzang finally agreed to an alliance with other countries!

In this way,

Among the countries in the northern part of the Tang Dynasty, a huge alliance has begun to form. The only one that has not yet expressed its stance is the Western Turkic Khanate.

…

Not to mention the movement in the border direction, at this moment, in the capital of the Tang Dynasty.

"Woo!"

The cold wind howled and the weather was gloomy. In just a short period of time, the temperature in the entire Middle-earth China dropped by more than ten degrees, as if it had quickly entered a cold winter.

In the homes of many wealthy families in the capital, blazing coal fires have been lit.

In the streets and alleys, there are many woodcutters shouting and selling firewood, more than twice as many as usual.

The bustling capital city in the past was much cooler at this time. There were only a few people on the streets, only the city guards and city defense troops patrolling everywhere on war horses.

At the same time, southwest of the palace, in the foreign palace.

In the main hall, a beast-headed charcoal basin was placed in the center. The charcoal fire inside was extremely red, releasing waves of heat, warming the main hall.

Wang Chong and Xu Qiqin, one in Tsing Yi and the other in a white skirt, sat opposite each other. There was a sandalwood table in the middle with a pot of tea, two teacups, and several plates of snacks and preserves. The atmosphere was extremely quiet. .

"...All the coal has been allocated to various states and governments as planned. As for kerosene, except for two components sent to each road, the rest are all shipped to the northeast and northwest battlefields. In addition, all cotton, linen, and wool All the clothes and bedding were also distributed.”

"As for the various states and governments, they have also posted notices to reassure people. All villagers in remote mountainous areas have moved to temporary resettlement sites near the county. The government offices in each state have also greatly expanded their police teams to maintain public order. To prevent chaos.”

"But despite this, the situation is still not optimistic. The temperature is dropping too fast. The moat outside the city has begun to freeze, and the temperature is still dropping, with no sign of stopping."

"We have sent people to the north to investigate the news. Judging from the current situation, the great cold wave is already advancing towards the East and West Turkic Khanate and Goguryeo. In less than a month, these countries may be completely submerged by the snowstorm. After that, the cold wave will move southward and sweep across the entire Tang Dynasty!"

"In addition, although we continue to purchase grain and wool from the outside world, and offer prices twice as high as before, there is nothing available on the market now, and countries have begun to control these things. Datang Population There are so many, far more than any other country. If you hadn’t made preparations in advance, the consequences would have been disastrous!”

Xu Qiqin held a list in her hand and talked about the progress of all parties one by one. When she said the last sentence, she couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief and felt very happy in her heart.

Everything must be prepared beforehand, otherwise it will be ruined. This time, the great cold wave is coming with great force. Although it has not officially moved south and swept across the entire Tang Dynasty, the horrific damage it caused in the north is enough to make anyone feel frightened or even frightened.

If you really have to improvise and wait until the cold wave breaks out to prepare, it will be too late.

Wang Chong looked normal. For this matter, the imperial court spent more than one billion taels of gold, and he himself invested four to five billion. This did not include the large amount of hybrid rice he shipped from the Promised Land overseas.

If not for this, the tens of millions of people in the Tang Dynasty would never be able to live such a stable life now.

"Well, I believe you. With you in this regard, Datang's internal affairs can at least be worry-free for the time being."

Wang Chong said.

In terms of logistics, Xu Qiqin's ability has never let him down.

Hearing Wang Chong's words, Xu Qiqin smiled slightly, her face slightly blushing.

"By the way, how are you doing over there?"

Xu Qiqin quickly came to her senses and said.

In an emergency situation, she mainly helped Wang Chong to appease the people in the Tang Dynasty and help the state capitals to withstand the coming severe cold. However, in terms of external affairs, all aspects related to the war were personally presided over by Wang Chong.

One inside and one outside, the two have a clear division of labor and work in parallel.

"about there!"

Wang Chong picked up the tea cup on the table, took a sip, and looked calm and calm:

“All the steel and craftsmanship is already in place.”

"What about An Yaluo Mountain?"

A ray of light flashed in Xu Qiqin's wonderful eyes and said.

"It's still the same as before, ready to take action. We are gathering troops and horses recently. I'm afraid something will happen during this time."

Wang Chong said calmly.

"So, doesn't he have successfully convinced Goguryeo, Xi, Khitan, and the Han Dynasty?"

When Xu Qiqin heard this, she immediately realized something, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she was slightly worried.

"The troops will block him, the water will cover him, and the soil will cover him. I have arranged everything. It's okay if An Yaluoshan doesn't send troops. Once he sends troops, it will be his own destruction. I will give him a big surprise then."

Wang Chong put down the tea cup, his eyes were cold, and his expression naturally showed a strong confidence.

"Plan a strategy to win a thousand miles", he has been waiting for this day to come from the moment he was reborn.

During the An-Shi Rebellion, he had already removed the word "Historical". This time, he would completely end the last word "An" and eliminate this scourge for the Tang Dynasty forever!

"Prince!——"

Just when Wang Chong was deep in thought, a rush of footsteps came from outside. Within a moment, Zhang Que walked in quickly with a letter in hand.

As soon as he opened his mouth, the next moment he saw Xu Qiqin in the main hall, his expression was startled, and he immediately lowered his head:

"Xu, Miss Xu..., Your Majesty, I will go out for a while and come back later."

Zhang Que looked embarrassed and was about to exit the hall as he spoke.

"No need!"

Wang Chong waved his sleeves and said calmly, Zhang Que had obviously misunderstood something:

"Tell me, what's going on?"

"yes!"

Zhang Que hesitated for a moment, then remembered the content on the letterhead, his expression became solemn, and he immediately said:

"I have just received news that in the northeastern area, there are frequent movements in Anyaluo Mountain in Youzhou, and there seems to be a trend of raising troops in advance. In addition, our spies in Youzhou have also discovered traces of Us Tibetans."

"Buzz!"

After hearing Zhang Que's last words, Wang Chong's pupils shrank and his expression suddenly became extremely cold.

Talk about Qinling!

In fact, he has been sending people to monitor the surrounding countries, and has also sent letters to threaten and win over, and warned all parties. So far, only the countries surrounding Youzhou have close contact with Anjaluo Mountain, but if there is a big discussion about Qinling and Wu The Sizang Empire has also joined the Anjaluoshan alliance, and everything will be completely different.

Although An Yaluoshan has strong soldiers and noble assistance, it has too little qualifications and insufficient climate.

But Dalu Qinling is different. This person's qualifications are even far higher than those of Zhangchou Jianqiong and others. He is the top resourceful person in the entire land world.

If the two of them join forces, An Yaluoshan will undoubtedly be even more powerful and already have the strength to sweep the world!

"Snapped!"

The next moment, Wang Chong flicked his finger, and a ray of energy immediately shot out. There was a "squeak" sound, and on a large semi-hollow bronze table not far away, a rolled-up book covering the surrounding countries and A huge map including the Tang Dynasty unfolded.

Wang Chong stood up and walked over.

Xu Qiqin and Zhang Que also followed.

Wang Chong glanced at the entire map. His eyes moved from Youzhou, Goguryeo, and the Han Dynasty to the Uzang Empire. At the end, he suddenly turned and landed on an area in the northwest corner of the map. superior.

"The only one left that has not expressed its stance is the Western Turkic Khanate!"

"It's not that easy to be connected as one. Someone, come and write a letter to Shabolo Khan for me!"

Wang Chong sneered, looking at the location of the Western Turkic Khanate on the map, a sharp light like a sword flashed across his eyes.

The Western Turkic Khanate is located between Uzang and the coalition forces of the Youzhou countries in the northeast. It is an extremely important hub area.

Angaluoshan has already won over Uzang and almost all the countries in the north. If a Western Turkic Khanate is added, a huge coalition arc will be formed in the north of the Tang Dynasty. The countries will become one and the pressure of the Tang Dynasty will be It's even bigger.

However, Wang Chong would not let them have a chance to become one under any circumstances.

When Uzang also defected to the Youzhou coalition forces in Anjaluo Mountain, the Western Turkic Khanate in the northwest immediately became particularly important.

If a knife can be inserted here in the Western Turkic Khanate, the wise general Da Lun Qin Ling can be isolated from An Yaluoshan's army in the northeast, forming a huge barrier that cannot be crossed.

If Qinling and Anyaluoshan were united, their strength would be unimaginable, but if they were isolated, their threat would be greatly weakened. Wang Chong could even defeat them individually!

"yes!"

In the main hall, Zhang Que bowed and left quickly.

"Crash!"

After a while, a homing pigeon flew into the air and quickly headed northwest.
