Chapter 1131 Drums from afar(2/3)
"If Anxi is swept away, Lu Dongzan can sweep away the Western Regions. All the countries in the Western Regions are fences and will definitely surrender to Tubo. In this way, the Tang Dynasty will face a huge monster..."
Jia Ping'an's voice echoed in the hall.
Wu Mei was watching.
When he first entered the court, I remember that someone later said he was very nervous.
Now he talks freely and is calm.
"Once such a situation is formed, the Tang Dynasty will need to spend more energy and money to restore its original situation. Can it be immigrated?"
Jia Ping'an asked a question, "What should those immigrants do if Anxi is captured? They will be killed by the Tubo people, or become prisoners, men are slaves, and women are maids. Under such a tragic situation, how can the court in the future encourage the people to immigrate to Anxi?"
A group of people who died in front of them, who will be willing to immigrate in the future?
This is a serious problem.
"This matter..."
The emperor left the court for a long time and appeared today for the purpose of planning this battle.
"Your Majesty, why don't you ask for Bolu to stare at me?"
Liu Rengui proposed a compromise method.
"Once Bolu discovers the movements of the Tubo army, secret spies will naturally notice it, and then quickly report the news..."
“It’s too late.”
Jia Ping'an rejected Liu Rengui's proposal in one sentence.
Li Yifu said: "Call some people to guard."
This is still a compromise.
"Anxi is not small. When the Tubo army moves, it will be less than 200,000. A small number of troops will be in service. They can only watch Lu Dongzan sweep across Anxi, and then the army besieged the city. How long can the defenders whose supplies are cut off can hold?"
Jia Ping'an once again rejected Li Yifu's advice.
Dou Dexuan is not a professional, but just made suggestions from a financial perspective, "Can you save money?"
Even Li Zhi smiled at it.
"Dou Gong, many things cannot be saved. Save money at this moment. If Anxi is destroyed in the future, it will consume more money and food."
Xu Jingzong did not agree with his younger brother's opinion, but did not want to undermine the situation, so he remained silent.
Li Ji closed his eyes, as if he was dozing off.
But everyone knows that he is listening, but since a long time ago, he stops talking about anything that is not a big deal.
Li Zhi suddenly felt a little moved.
Is the war between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo a major event?
Of course.
But Li Jie didn't speak.
Why?
Did he really ignore everything?
Li Zhi doesn't think so.
So... Does Li Jie think Jia Ping'an's analysis is correct?
Li Zhi said: "The British Duke talks about this."
When someone asked Li Ji that he could close his eyes and ignore him, he had the qualifications. But he had to give him some face when the emperor asked him.
"Your Majesty, I am old and there are many young and handsome men in the court now. I can rest assured."
Li Zhi understood.
Jia Ping'an knew the difficulties of such large-scale mobilization, which made it difficult for the monarchs and ministers of the Tang Dynasty to choose.
This is also the reason why Tubo can take the strategic initiative... The Tang Dynasty could not attack them, but they could launch an attack on the Tang Dynasty at any time and place.
Extremely comfortable!
Jia Ping'an said, "Your Majesty, if this battle is going on, at least 50,000 troops from the palace will be dispatched."
The Tang Dynasty was just the little mansion soldiers, and most of the people who could fight were in the Guanzhong area.
With 50,000 troops as the core, this is a battle that will thrive in the country.
If you want to say that Xue Rengui led more than 100,000 troops to fight Qinling, how many elite troops could there be in more than 100,000 miles?
Li Zhi was moved, "Fifty thousand soldiers in the palace..."
Li Jiwei nodded undetectedly.
"That's Tubo." Empress Wu reminded.
In this era, the Central Plains were surrounded by wolves, including Turks, Goryeo, Tubo, and later Dashi. Every force could sweep away the world in later generations, but they all became enemies of the Tang Dynasty.
The Tubo climate is pleasant at this moment, and breeding and planting can support many people and are quite prosperous, so they have the confidence to send out hundreds of thousands of troops at every turn.
Moreover, the combat effectiveness of the Tubo army cannot be underestimated.
"Your Majesty, the Tubo army is worse than the Turks."
In contrast, the Turkic army was far less resilient.
Xu Jingzong said: "If the Turks dispatched 200,000 troops, the court should use 30,000 troops. This is a more powerful Tubo, with more troops."
Li Zhi pondered for a long time.
"I think about this matter more carefully."
Jia Ping'an was not dissatisfied at all, but felt that this was normal.
The decision to make a battle to make a nation-wide battle is not refreshing or decisive, but reckless.
...
The princess's life is not actually happy.
Because the princess is not qualified to be involved in the government affairs, the fathers and brothers are always more tolerant of them, but often tolerant means ignoring them.
The late emperor loved his daughter, and even gave Hengshan her title when she was eight years old in Xincheng, and gave it a real title, plus Tang Muyi. This all broke the series of rules at that time, which shows the late emperor's love for this daughter.
Li Zhi was also very caring for this sister-in-law. When he left the palace, he added 5,000 fiefs and was awarded the title of Princess of the New City.
Xincheng has lived like stars since childhood, but if you say she must be very happy.
not necessarily!
When you are idle, you often use reading books as a pastime in the new city and practice calligraphy and painting from time to time.
But today she thought of playing the piano.
The first thing to do when playing the piano is emotion, that is, substitution.
When playing the mountains and flowing water, all you think of is fame and fortune, so naturally you can't play that artistic conception.
The new city plays Luoshuiyin.
The Luo River originated at the junction of Huazhou and Lantian. It gradually became vast and endless, irrigating countless fertile fields on both sides of the strait.
Huang Shu stood outside, and she seemed to hear the sound of running water in her ears.
The two sides of the shore are green and grassy, with big trees unkempt between them, and the water vapor is evaporated, as if it is a fairyland.
The artistic conception is beautiful, but it is lonely, as if there is no one in the world.
Huang Shu heard the footsteps and saw the maid coming, she pressed her hands down and signaled her to slow down.
The maid is approaching.
"Duke Zhao is here."
The sound of the piano suddenly changed, and Huang Shu seemed to see a small boat crossing the shore, some people sitting on the side fishing, and some people drinking on the shore...
Everything was alive in an instant.
"Come here soon."
This is the backyard, and it is the backyard of the Princess' Mansion. It is reasonable for men to enter, but what Huang Shu said is natural and the maid listened to it for granted.
When Jia Ping'an came in, he heard the vitality of the piano.
"New City."
The sound of the piano stopped slowly, and Xincheng got up and walked to the door.
The light green long skirt is the most suitable for the temperament of Xincheng, and looks charming.
Headdress is very simple, this is casual when furnishing.
"Xiao Jia!"
Can't you call Lao Jia?
