Chapter 483: People Are Panicking!
Chapter 383
The news came out a few days ago that a scout next to Li Zhengji broke into the capital covered in blood, and after being carried to the Ministry of War, he only handed over the arrow order on his body, and fell into a coma after sending out a message for help. .
If the attack of the Usi Tibetans on the Longxi border was a large-scale invasion of the Tang Dynasty, then the sad news of the 180,000 troops of the Southwest Jiange Tang Dynasty was a shock of earth-shattering and heaven-shattering.
No one expected this kind of result. The Uzbek Tibetans' attack caused everyone to panic.
"The Tibetans of Uzbekistan are declaring war on Datang! This is a complete break!"
In the court hall, a censor doctor screamed hoarsely, even his face was red, and his body trembled with extreme anger.
"It's already broken! Longxi, Southwest, and Uzang have aggressively attacked the Tang Dynasty, mobilizing more than hundreds of thousands of troops. This is not a breakup! Now we need to discuss how to do it!"
"Li Zhengji has already failed, where do we have soldiers?"
"To help Xianyu Zhongtong and Li Zhengji, the Big Dipper Army is the best way!"
"But the Big Dipper Army has been pinned down by Xin Nuo Luo Gong Lu and Du Song Mang Po Chi!"
"My lord Wang said long ago that now is not the time to send troops, and you don't listen. You know now!"
"What I am worried about now is not this, but the hundreds of thousands of people in the southwest! If the 180,000 Tang elites in the Annan Governor's Mansion can't stop it, the southwest land will be flat, who else can stop Mengshe Zhao and The coalition forces of Uzbekistan?"
...
Hum, in an instant, as if all the air had been evacuated, the originally noisy hall instantly became quiet. All the princes, officials, and imperial officials fell silent.
A suffocating force enveloped the entire court.
The defeat in the Southwest has never been the most worrying thing. What is really worrying is the nearly one million Liming people in the Southwest.
As a barrier to the southwest, the Annan Protectorate's Mansion is the first and last barrier against Meng Shezhao and Uzang.
Because of this relationship, the Annan Protectorate's army has always been huge, with 180,000 elite soldiers far exceeding the Beidou Army of Ge Shuhan in Longxi and Gao Xianzhi's army in Anxi.
Even Zhang Shougui of the Anton Protectorate's Mansion does not have an army of 180,000.
When Zhangchou Jianqiong guarded the southwest, he was always cautious and never dared to take the initiative to attack lightly, it was for this reason.
However, Ge Luofeng's sudden attack, and Zhangchou Jianqiong's just sitting in the position of Minister of War, facing pressure from all sides, finally made all this come to naught.
It will take at least two months for the new wave of reinforcements from the imperial court to be reorganized. Regardless of whether it is from other directions, a little from each Protectorate, or a temporary organization, it must be achieved.
but before that
There will be no shelter for nearly a million people in the southwest. Thinking of the consequences of Meng Shezhao and the Uzang army's sudden advance, all the ministers can't help but tremble.
"Wang Chong..."
Looking at the civil and military ministers who looked dignified in Manchao, but couldn't say anything, King Song stood in the train and suddenly remembered a person.
No one expected that the 180,000 elite of the Southwest Protectorate of the Tang Dynasty would fall to such an extent. If there was one person inside and outside the government and the public who knew all this would develop to the present, then there is no doubt that this person must be Wang Chong.
For some reason, King Song always felt as if Wang Chong knew that all this would develop until now. This made him feel weird.
"...Perhaps, it's not necessarily true that this child pays attention!"
Song Wang raised his head, looked at the top of the Panlong Hall in the main hall, and thought to himself.
...
"The house leaks and the cracks continue to rain." Just when the Central Plains court was shaken by the defeat in the southwest, the north and northeast of the Tang Dynasty were equally unsettled.
"Hahaha, this is a god-sent opportunity! Unexpectedly, the 180,000 elites of the Tang Dynasty would lose to Wu Sizang and Meng Shezhao!..."
On a moonlit night, to the north of Yinshan Mountain, on the boundless grassland, a huge moon-white tooth tent stands tall. Surrounding the dental tent are giant snow-white wolves like lions, each with ferocious fangs, looking around vigilantly.
And inside the huge moon-white tent, oil and fire shone, and a pitch-black figure was cast on the wall, looking extremely huge.
Although he didn't perform any tricks or use any martial arts, that pitch-black figure exuded a terrifying aura, like a bottomless abyss, swirling the moonlight hundreds of meters above his head into a vortex. attracted.
"Pass my order, the army will go south and confront the Northern Court of the Great Tang Dynasty. If there is any change in the Protectorate of the Northern Court of the Great Tang Dynasty, we will go south and completely defeat them!"
The rough voice clenched his fists and said without hesitation.
"But Da Khan, wouldn't we completely offend Emperor Tang!"
The fire was flickering, and in the big tent, another voice spoke cautiously, sounding very fearful.
"Hey, do you still think that the Great Tang is the previous Great Tang? The 180,000 elite... This is the 180,000 elite! If it were the previous Great Tang, even if Meng Shezhao and Wu Sizang were mobilized in full force, they would still not be seen. Gotta be able to win!"
The rough voice said, the voice was faintly erratic, as if caught in some kind of memory.
The power of Datang is beyond the imagination of ordinary people!
When Su Zhengchen, the military god of the Tang Dynasty, was in power, and the East and West Turks were strong, Usumish Khan was just a young child.
150,000 people are fully armed, but the most powerful Black Wolf Khan Army in Western Turks can't stop Su Zhengchen's 8,000 soldiers! Afterwards, the Turkic Turks were severely injured and were swept away by Wang Jiuling and Wang Zhongsi, and it took a long time to recuperate.
The 600,000 to 700,000 troops of the Tang Dynasty were able to hold down various foreign empires in all directions, relying on their own crushing strength and various weapons and equipment.
But now, 180,000 Tang elites and 60,000 reinforcements were defeated by Meng Shezhao and Uzang. For the Western Turks and other empires, this was something that was unimaginable before.
"Datang has become fragile and is no longer as strong as before. They are too comfortable, and we... are no longer what we used to be!"
The rough voice suddenly became extremely high-pitched, and all the white wolves around the tent seemed to sense something, all of them gritted their teeth and showed ferocious eyes:
"Go! There must be a battle between the Turks and the Tang Dynasty, not now,... or in the future!"
"Yes, this subordinate understands!"
...
At the same time, the distant Youzhou is east and the Bohai Sea is north.
Across a vast plain and a clear river, a towering city wall stood far away from the Anton Protectorate's Mansion.
The city wall was smoky and smoldering, and it seemed that it had experienced countless battles, but it was built extremely tall and strong, even the cities of Middle Earth could not compare with it.
"Gaimu City"!
On the huge city, dragons, flying and dancing phoenixes are written with three Chinese characters of Zhongtu. The Goguryeo Empire is adjacent to China. Although the languages are different, the official language of writing is the standard Chinese characters of China.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, the gate of Gaimu City, which had been locked up for many years, burst open, and groups of Goguryeo infantry rushed out from inside. And almost at the same time, a large number of Goguryeo soldiers poured out of the gates of various places in the south and north of the city.
This sudden change shocked the entire territory of Youzhou!
All the Tang soldiers in the Anton Protectorate were stunned by this sudden change.
In the entire east of Youzhou, the Anton Protectorate has a dominant position. This status was not crowned by oneself, but was forged with blood and fire and several wars.
Throughout the Northeast, the Goguryeo Empire has always adopted a passive defense method, relying on strong walls and various fortifications to resist the attacks of the Tang Dynasty.
Such an active opening of the door to attack has never happened before.
"Enemy attack!"
On the banks of the Lushui River, several scouts from Tang Dynasty suddenly jumped on their horses, screamed shrilly, and hurried away. But no one saw that on the wall of "Gaimu City", a Goguryeo general with a charming figure and five long knives on his back was silently watching him with complicated eyes.
In his hand is a bright yellow Goguryeo "imperial decree". The "moon in the water" pattern on the imperial decree clearly indicates his master.
This is a decree from Emperor Yuan Gaisuwen of the Goguryeo Empire!
"Actively attack and contain Datang!"
On the bright yellow imperial decree, there are only a few large characters.
Almost overnight, there were changes in the Eastern and Western Turkic Khanates, the Goguryeo Empire, and even the distant Dashi Empire.
The entire Tang Dynasty was panicked.
It's just that Wang Chong had expected all of this, and was calm and calm from beginning to end.
