The Tang and Tibet stretched nearly three thousand miles on the front line, and the offensive and defensive momentum changed!

Originally, when Xifan was in the autumn moon, he would invade Lingyan, Fengxiang, Jingyuan, Jiannan, and the Tang Dynasty could only divide the towns in the capital, relying on the support of Guandong to defend the autumn troops and financial resources to support the situation.

Since the Huating Victory, the military strength of the Western Fan Longyou Hexi has been greatly lost. Ma Chongying and the newly appointed host Dalun Shang Qi Xiner were unable to organize large-scale wars in a short period of time, and Chisong Dezan could only draw troops from Dongdaili, the headquarters to strengthen Helong's defense.

This is the first time in so many years that Xifan has focused on "defense" and has not even launched the Qiuyue offensive.

But the Tang Dynasty was different. Emperor Li Shi smartly adopted the abdication of Huaixi Town and brought the daughter of Emperor Daizong, that is, his sister Princess Jiacheng, to Tian Xu, the governor of Weibo. In addition, because of the proposal of the Uighurs, Wuyi Khan drove all the envoys from Xifan to ask for the alliance, scolded Xifan, saying, "I am already the son of the Emperor of the Tang family, how can I be an alliance with my father's enemy?" Then Wuyi Khan asked the Uighurs' prime minister to lead more than 10,000 troops to attack and assist Anxi and Beiting.

When the interior and north stabilized, Li Shi spent a lot of money to purchase an additional 3,000 horses from the Khan of Wuyi, and strengthened the cavalry power of the Northwest Frontier Army. Then the emperor instructed Kang Rizhi to join 10,000 troops to enter Feng'an Military City in Yuanzhou by boat, and met Xing Junya to attack Yuan, and the intersection of the association - Shatuo, who was reminded by the Feng'an City General Wang Shengluan in advance, and the Tuyuhun Xiaowang Zhu, who was reminded by the Feng'an City General Wang Shengluan in advance, and the Tuyuhun Xiaowang Zhu, who was reminded by the Feng'an City General Wang Shengluan in advance.

Xie Jinzhong and Murong Junchao, because they had an agreement with Gao Yue, tacitly retreated all their own foreign lands into Huizhou. The Tang army arrived at Shimen Pass in Qiguanli, Yuanzhou, and built a strong city called "Shimen Fort" (the Northern Song Dynasty once built Pingxia City here), and collected all the six pans and Tiandu, which were in danger of treasury. Later, Shatuo and Tuyuhun lied to Ma Chongying, saying that the Tang army had tens of thousands of troops and the army was unstoppable. After our bloody battle, we were defeated.

When Ma Chongying heard that Tiandu Mountain was lost, he was shocked and hurriedly ordered tens of thousands of infantry and cavalry out of Liangzhou to cross the Yellow River to fight. But at the same time, news came: Liu Haibin led the Shen Ce and the powerful Rong troops, and advanced from Pingliang City, crossed the "Liupanguan City" in Longdi, and then headed south along the Shuiluchuan; Zhang Jingze and Fuyuhuai led 8,000 Yining soldiers, and came out of Yue'an Rongguan in Neiyuan, met Liu Haibin's army, swept Qin again, and formed the two states, Shang Qixin'er led the army to fight. The two sides followed the Wei River and Watingchuan back and forth, and the battle was fierce.

Gao Yue was in charge of Xingyuan, Jingnan, Fangzhen in the east of Shannan, and sent 100,000 stones and rice to Xingyuan by ship from Hanchuan and the Yangtze River to Xingyuan as reserve grain for the army. In addition, in the past two years, rice, wheat and corn were greatly harvested in the northwest, Shannan and Jiannan, and the grain was accumulated like a big steeper. It was abundant in logistics and was sent to all troops. So after the sacrifice to the tooth flag, Gao Yue ordered:

This time, the Dingwu Army sent out 7,000 soldiers and 6,000 soldiers. Among them, Tang Jingyan led 3,000 soldiers to go out of Hechi to attack Qiuchi Mountain occupied by Xifan; Sun Bingqian led 3,000 soldiers to go out of the Lueyang City of Xingzhou, and joined forces with the governor of Lizhou Wang Qie, and left Bailong River (Qianshui) to sweep the Wudu area.

After hearing that Gao Yue sent troops, Wei Gao responded immediately and divided the generals, 20,000 Xichuan Shoshi and Qiongya's children, and went out in five directions to attack and besiege Weizhou City occupied by Xifan. After Wei Gao's army, the barbarians of the Eight Kingdoms of Xishan, which lived in the Tang and Bo Wei, Song, and Yazhou (the residential area was located in the two major autonomous prefectures of Aba and Ganzi in Sichuan Province, and were also the famous Jinchuan. Later, the old man from the Qing Dynasty launched the Battle of Jinchuan, which was aimed at changing the land and returning to the land), and they all left Xifan and warmly welcomed Wei Gao's army. Wei Gao asked his brother Wei Yan to give these barbarians silk, oxen and seeds to serve as a barrier on the west side of Shuzhou City.

However, Wei Gao's goal was not to capture Victoria City.

Because in this era, Victoria City is really too difficult to capture.

Victoria City, now Li County in Xichuan, was originally the focus of the cruel battle between the Tang and the Borussia in the early Tang and Borussia. The Tang army spent hundreds of millions of dollars to transport troops to Victoria to guard this important land. Xiban, as Songzhou, which is adjacent to Victoria, was his place to grazing war horses, and he must not be allowed to be threatened by the Tang army.

Later, due to the Anshi Rebellion, Weizhou City was trapped in Xifan. Zanpu made every effort to manage this city and renamed it "Wuyoucheng" (which means that the western border of this city is worry-free). According to the description of Li Deyu in Tang Book, "the state borders Jiangyang in the south, Minshan Mountains connects the ridges to the west, and does not know its extreme; looking north at Long County, snow makes jade, and looking east at Shu Capital, if it is at the bottom of a well. On one side, a lonely peak and three sides, it is an important place for Western Shu to control Xifan." It also said that "it is based on the top of the mountains, on three sides, and on the junction of Ronglu Pingchuan, it is the Han area.

The road of war.” How difficult is this fortress at an altitude of nearly three thousand meters? Let’s see how hard it is to fight? Let’s see how old man Shiquan fought in Jinchuan. Later, the Qing army cast hundreds of artillery pieces of various colors using Western technology, including more than a hundred sky-storm cannons (clined cannons), and then it was difficult for Wei Gao to seize the mountain blocks built by the Kangba people there to arduously capture the city of Weizhou. His move was just a big sensation and feint attack.

In fact, Wei Gao held nearly 10,000 elite soldiers of the Fengyi army in his hand and was waiting for Gao Yue in the capital of Shu.

In the west pavilion of Shu capital, Zheng Zhi was rarely excited to find Wei Gao, the governor of Xichuan, holding a letter in his hand.

Wei Gao was very polite to this brother-in-law. Not only for the sake of relatives, but also respect Zheng Zi and the elements that promised Gao Yue to entrusted. Therefore, the brother-in-law's relationship is still very close at the level of managing Yunnan.

"Did you come from Yunnan?" Wei Gao asked.

Zheng Zhi nodded and then said that the barbarian king Yi Mouxun of Yunnan entrusted his uncle Zheng Hui to secretly send it here, saying that he did have the ambition to return to the Tang Dynasty. The reason why Yunnan colluded with Xifan to rebel against the Tang Dynasty was mainly because of Zhang Qiantuo and was attacked by Xianyu Zhongtong for many years. Now, the king and subjects of Yunnan have thought that they have been enthroned by our Tang Dynasty for generations and given the imperial edict that since the death of the former king Ge Luofeng, the successor of Yunnan King Yi Mouxun was his grandson Yi Mouxun. This king is wise and knowledgeable, and is ready to change his ancestors' policy of rebelling against the Tang Dynasty. He also has the support of the Qingping official Zheng Hui and Guiguo, so "I have never thought about becoming a minister of the Tang Dynasty for a day!"

Hearing this, Wei Gao walked to the mountains and sand tables where the three forces in Jiannan, Xifan and Yunnan were intertwined. After watching for a while, he smiled and said:

"What civilization said is very true, but in Gao Yu's opinion, the reason why Yunnan promised to return to my Tang is not to be grateful to me, but was caused by the forced situation."

Zheng Zhi was a little surprised. People were willing to come to discuss peace with you. Do you still blame others for being dishonest? Wei Gao, similar to that guy Gao Yue, has a lot of conscience in his heart.
