Chapter 211 Turks go south

"Princess, you hand over this plan to Your Majesty. Your Majesty will not believe it now. Have you forgotten the conflict with Li Yu and Your Majesty a while ago? Do you think the emperor will still believe Li Yu? What if you ask Li Yu to make a country and China again?" Li Xueyi quickly stood up and said.

Li Xiuning frowned slightly. It was not impossible. But since he realized that the plan for this development zone was of great help to the Tang Dynasty, why not let the court borrow that?

"I can't affect the major affairs of the court because of the conflict between my father and Li Yu. That's it, I'll go to the palace to repay you immediately." Li Xiuning finished speaking and was about to step away.

Seeing that Li Xiuning was determined to report, Li Xueyi quickly stood up and advised: "Princess, the emperor is extremely dissatisfied with Li Yu now. Don't cause trouble for him, otherwise you two will be done sooner or later. Let's do it first. There will be too great results in the past two years. If you go on the right path, it will not be too late to decide depending on the situation."

Li Xiuning's hand holding the development zone plan dropped weakly and stopped in place. She also understood that if the development zone plan was given to her father, would the conflict between Li Yu and his father continue to increase?

Because Li Yu did not offer generator sets and various lighting fixtures, my father was looking for trouble for Li Yu, so he might as well not send it to him! If the father said that he planned to establish China, it would be troublesome, and if there was another severe conflict, he would be stuck between the two of them, and it would be difficult for him to go. Besides, it will take two to three years to build a large-scale development zone. It will be decided at that time depending on the situation!

Thinking of this, Li Xiuning calmed down completely and said a little regretfully: "But there is no need to waste such a good plan."

"Princess, you are a fan of the person involved. If the court has this plan, will they use it? And without Li Yu's guidance to the development zone, do you think the development zone can still be handled? In addition, Li Yu's help to the Tang Dynasty was very huge. Let's not talk about the initial salt making. Look at what I have done in the past two years, new plows, water wheels, horseshoes, bob noses, and the current academy and workshop were not completed by him. By the way, there is also the very popular cement now. If the conflicts with His Majesty deepen in the future, will Li Yu be willing to help the Tang Dynasty again in the future?" Li Xueyi did not agree with Li Xiuning's view.

After hearing Li Xueyi's words, Li Xiuning thought about the great achievements Li Yu made to the Tang Dynasty and said in a deep voice: "You are right. His silent help to the Tang Dynasty is very great. If there is a conflict with the court, there will be no help from Li Yu, the college, and the steel factory in the future, don't think about the railway."

There is also the thing that Li Xiuning is most worried about. If it is because of the development zone plan, Li Yu and his father will cause a big conflict, if it is a life-and-death result, the future of himself and Li Yu may end here.

...

On the official road of Chang'an, a team of 800-mile fast riding Hongling messengers galloped from west to east. The Hongling messengers kept whipping the flattering horses that were sitting down, shouting in a hoarse voice: "Eight hundred-mile urgent reports, everyone should get out of here quickly."

After shouting, a team of horses galloping away with a sprinter.

The people who were trampled to death by the second test of the official road saw the Hongling messenger on the official road. Hongling was anxious to make them unable to afford it. Even if they were trampled to death by Hongling on the official road, they would only be considered unlucky.

The people on the official road were frightened and quickly fled from the official road.

At the same time, the people were secretly worried. Because judging from the fact that Hongling Messenger did not care about horses today, it must be because of some major crisis that occurred in the border that would be like this.

The city guards standing at the head of Chang'an City saw the leader Hong Ling's urgent envoy. The bright red helmet was extremely bright in the dust. He understood that something might have happened to the border. He quickly opened the city gate and asked the soldiers guarding the city to quickly clear the passage in the city and let the Hong Ling's messenger pass quickly.

In an instant, there were only one city guardian left at the gate of the city, and all the city guardians ran to Chang'an City to clear the passage where Hong Ling urgently ordered his troops.

After the Hongling Messenger passed, the tense atmosphere began to extend from the city gate to the imperial city. Not long after, the tense air filled the entire palace, and then gradually spread to the entire Chang'an City.

At this moment, Li Yuan, who was working in the Taiji Hall, received an urgent report from Hong Ling, took the document and spread it carefully, and he did not dare to miss every word.

After watching it, Li Yuan was frightened.

Chuluo Khan personally led 200,000 elite Turkic cavalry, and under the banner of avenging Shibi Khan, he had already gone north. He was unstoppable from Fengzhou-Shuozhou-Xizhou (xizhou). He entered Guanzhong in just a few days, and the army was less than three days away from Qingzhou.

If Qingzhou falls again, it will probably take a few days before the Turks' 200,000 troops will be coming to Chang'an!

Li Yuan thought of 200,000 Turkic cavalry scattering on the land of the Tang Dynasty, and what would he do to resist? Not to mention 200,000 Turkic cavalry, even 100,000, no, even 50,000, the Tang Dynasty is not an enemy now!

What's even worse is that the troops in Guanzhong of the Tang Dynasty are currently empty. Li Jiancheng was leading a large army in Hebei at this time. The second son who was the best at fighting was fighting against aliens in Tugufan. Guanzhong is currently doing small wars with ordinary troops, and it is okay to defend the fierce Turkic army...

Thinking of this, cold sweat flowed down Li Yuan's spine.

After a long time, Li Yuan came to his senses and shouted in horror: "Ring the Jingyang Bell quickly..."

"promise!"

The trembling eunuch on the side, after answering, he ran and crawled towards the palace tower.

After a while, the long Jingyang Bell was ringing. The civil and military ministers of the Tang Dynasty heard that the Jingyang Bell, which was not commonly used, were ringing. Thinking about the Hongling who had just passed, they all understood that something big had happened, so they hurriedly put down everything in their hands and rushed to the palace.

Li Yuan sat on the dragon throne and saw that all the ministers below had arrived.

Li Yuan hurriedly took out the urgent report from Hong Ling, and said in a deep voice: "Chuluo Khan personally led 200,000 elite Turkic cavalry, and under the slogan of Weishibi Khan, he had already gone north, and all the cities along the way were lost... It is only ten days away from Chang'an."

After hearing Li Yuan's statement, all the civil and military ministers were surprised and the entire Tai Chi Hall was silent in an instant. A tense atmosphere filled the entire hall. All the ministers looked at each other and found that the other party was also nervous and had no choice.

When Li Yuan saw the silent hall, the tense atmosphere became even more uneasy.

"Cough, cough cough..."

Li Yuan saw the civil and military ministers below worried. He did not dare to speak, so he coughed a few times.

"Dear friends, please tell me what you can do." Li Yuan asked with a frown. He was afraid of the Turks when he first started his business, and he had been vain to the Turks before he started his army.

After Shibi Khan was defeated and shot and killed two years ago, because Chuluo Khan and his younger brother and nephew competed for the position of the Great Khan, the Turks did not go south in the past two years, and only a small group of Turkic people came to harass the border.

After the Chuluo Khan seized the Khan, he quickly stabilized the civil strife of the Turks. He led his troops south to avenge Shibi Khan.

"Your Majesty, I think that what Chu Luo Khan said about taking revenge is just a nominal excuse. Didn't the Turks invade Guanzhong repeatedly before, mainly because their wealth and population were concentrated in Chang'an. In fact, because Guanzhong was too rich, the Turkic aliens salivated. As long as we burned Chang'an, moved the people of Chang'an out of Guanzhong, and found another city to build a capital. The danger of the Turks will be solved in the future." Yu Wen and his ministers came out to explain it.

The burning of Chang'an to move the capital was only Dong Zhuo for thousands of years, which had done such a thing that harmed others and was not beneficial to oneself. Dong Zhuo's later fate proved that such things could not be done.

And if Chang'an is burned and the people in Guanzhong are all lost, is it a fool?

As soon as Yu Wenshu said this, the court suddenly became silent again.

Everyone below was whispering, and no one was willing to stand up and agree with his opinion, and they laughed at the strategy that only idiots dared to come up with.

Although Yu Wenshi and his ministers despised him, they also provided an idea for the ministers.

Feng Deyi stood up and reported: "Your Majesty! The Turks are too close to Guanzhong, and the Turks control the portal of our Tang Dynasty. Entering and leaving the Tang Dynasty is like entering a no-man's land, which poses too great a threat to Chang'an. I also think that Chang'an is not suitable to be the capital of my Tang Dynasty, but there is no need to burn Chang'an."

"Now the Turks control our western gateway. Come and leave as soon as you want. Chang'an is just on the western gateway of the Turkic attack. If the Turkic army approaches the city of Chang'an, the capital will be in danger. It is reasonable to move the capital to ensure safety." A minister came out and agreed.

"Yes! Only by moving the capital can we solve the crisis of the Turkic going south at this time."

Many ministers in the hall were talking about it at this time and agreed to move the capital.
