Great Tang Broom Star

"I can't forget that night in Shule City."

Shandewu raised his glass and drank in pain.

The spy sitting opposite filled him with wine and sighed.

"I can't forget either."

"We have the wisdom pearl in our hands. I thought Tianming would see Jia Ping'an's head, but what I didn't expect was that Tang Jun was hiding outside the city. Do you know where my only fault is?"

The spy shook his head.

Shan Dewu sighed, "My only mistake is that I should not only focus on the city. I should have captured the city gate and made people guard the top of the city. Even if the progress in the city is slower... wouldn't it be more sure to catch the turtle in the urn? I really stupid!"

Every time Shule is mentioned, Shandewu will be in great pain.

"Mande and I escaped with difficulty, but left those brothers behind. I will never forgive myself."

Shan Dewu's face was flushed due to long-term alcoholism, and his nose was even more red.

"Boom!"

The door was knocked open, and Mande's excited face appeared outside the door.

"Xue Rengui and the Turks are about to fight."

Shan Dewu's body shook, "Didn't Ashina Helu run away?"

Mande came in, picked up the jug and poured it with his head up.

The wine flowed down his chin to his beard, and then gathered and dripped on his beard...

"ah!"

Mande sighed freely, and put the jug heavily on the table, "It's very strange that Ashina Helu didn't run away, but assembled a large army to prepare for a decisive battle with Xue Rengui."

"He's crazy?"

Shan Dewu's face was solemn: "Tubo needs an existing Ashina Helu. Once the Turks decline, the consequences will be unimaginable. I will go to see the prime minister."

...

"Ashina Helu!"

Lu Dong was very calm after receiving the news.

"He can't escape anymore."

Lu Dong admired: "He has escaped countless times, but the Turkic people are wolves, and the wolves will not follow a wolf who only knows how to flee. They will not be able to bear it. Ashina Helu will not escape. There is only one possibility. He The tribe is dissatisfied."

A civil official said: "Grand Minister, but the Turks are not the opponents of the Tang Dynasty, why are they opposed to fleeing?"

Lu Dongzan said: "It's just because the Turkic people still miss the glory of the past and want to reproduce the glory of the past. Even if this dream is illusory, they still want to try it."

A general said: "But this test, if not done well, the whole army will be wiped out."

Someone said: "A lot of times it's just a gamble."

People are always gamblers, Turkic people are like this!

"He won't run away, the war is about to begin." Lu Dongzan said: "Xue Rengui has been dormant in recent years. Since he became famous with Li Shimin's conquest of Korea, he has been very powerful. But when the new emperor ascended the throne, he regarded him as a watchdog , has been stationed at the Xuanwu Gate for a long time. Now that I have the opportunity, this is the tiger's mouth. Ashina Helu met Xue Rengui like this, this is fate..."

The civil official said in surprise: "The prime minister thinks Ashina Helu will be defeated?"

Lu Dongzan nodded, "Ninety percent of them will be defeated, and the remaining 10%... depends on God's will."

Everyone was silent.

"Food and grass are ready."

"yes."

"Soldiers should practice and be more ruthless."

"yes!"

"Get detailed information about this battle as soon as possible."

Shan Dewu said: "Major Minister, the Tang army covered the battlefield, and even covered the surrounding area, making it impossible to obtain detailed information."

Lu Dongzan said flatly: "At all costs."

"yes!"

Tactics must serve strategy in many cases.

Everyone heard a hint of murderous intent.

Ready to start?

Lu Dongzan then went to see Zanpu.

The young Zamp sat indoors, reading a book calmly.

"Zanpu, the prime minister is here."

Zanpu got up and said with a smile, "The prime minister is here."

Lu Dongzan came in and saluted, "I met Zanpu."

"sit down."

Zamp is as friendly as a young man next door.

Someone served tea, Lu Dongzan nodded his head in thanks.

"I'm afraid Turkic won't be able to hold on anymore."

Lu Dongzan said: "Once the Turks can't hold on,

Datang looked around and was invincible. Liaodong recovered, and even Khitan was wiped out. "

"Is Turkic no match for Tang Dynasty?" Zanpu asked curiously.

Lu Dongzan smiled, "Li Zhi sent Xue Rengui who had been suppressed for a long time. Once this person goes out to fight, he will definitely be aggressive. Ashina Helu no longer flees, which hits Li Zhi's intention. A tiger that has been hungry for a long time meets a The wolf must have eaten him."

Zanpu nodded, "In this way, the Turks will decline for a long time after this war."

"Yes." Lu Dongzan said: "The tribes on the grassland will always exist, but they are weak or strong, and cannot be completely wiped out. After this battle, the Turks may not be able to become the opponents of the Tang Dynasty again within ten years... They need to cultivate their health. In order to find a leader, we need to fight internally."

"Datang lost an opponent, and Tubo lost a check."

Zamp said, and immediately clenched his fists.

Lu Dongzan chuckled, "Zanpu is smart, I am very pleased."

Zanpu lowered his eyes, "It's better to be taught by the Prime Minister."

Lu Dongzan laughed and said: "Once the Turks weaken, Datang will look for the next threat. That is Tubo. From now on, it is not Datang who is worried about Tubo's invasion, but Datang is eagerly waiting for Tubo to attack."

Zanpu said: "Tubo is located in a high place, and the Tang Dynasty cannot attack it. Why can't they live in peace?"

Lu Dongzan smiled, "A powerful force cannot be wasted for nothing. If it cannot find a target to vent to the outside world, these powerful forces will become the source of internal fighting, and countless Tibetans will fight each other."

"It's possible to go to Tibet and there is no internal fighting." Zanpu felt that this remark was a bit of a suspicion of fooling himself.

"Yes!" Lu Dongzan nodded, "If Tubo pursued a national policy of friendship with Datang, then we would still be smiling and watching Datang sweep the world. But it was too late. From the first time the army attacked Tuyuhun, Tubo and Tang Datang has already torn his face. Datang will not tolerate a huge force that is hostile to him and always thinking of attacking him. Zanpu, the relationship between us and Datang is already a life-and-death relationship. You must not mistake."

"Is it life or death?" Zanpu said, "But Datang is powerful."

"They are very powerful!" Lu Dongzan said, "They are invincible in all directions. We all underestimated Li Zhi."

Zanpu nodded, "When Li Shimin passed away, my grandfather sent someone to take a letter to Chang'an, admonishing grandson Wuji and others not to bully the cowardly Li Zhi, but now it seems that grandfather was wrong, and grandson Wuji was wrong. We were wrong too."

"Yes." Lu Dongzan said: "This is an emperor with a deep city, he can endure, like a silent rock, silent, but it can never be broken. When the dark clouds over the head dissipate In the end, he was like a sharp horizontal knife, invincible. Look, Goryeo is gone, Baekje and Silla are gone, Wa Kingdom is gone, Khitan is gone, and Xi clan is gone. In the place, the enemies of Datang are gone. Now it's our turn."

Zanpu sighed, "Is it irreparable?"

Lu Dongzan smiled, "Why is Zanpu worried about this? The Tubo army is not bad, and we have more numbers. In addition...even if we are temporarily lost, we can withdraw and defend our homeland. Datang can only look at it and sigh."

The plateau is the best line of defense, which gives the Tibetans a great sense of security.

Zanpu nodded, "How is such a grand minister going to do it?"

Lu Dongzan had a sharp look in his eyes, "If Tubo wants to make a difference, we can't wait. After this battle, the Tang Dynasty will prepare its troops, and Li Zhi will set his sights on some cities. Zanpu, the soldiers are waiting for the battle. Just wait for the news of this battle to come, and I will attack with a large army...to defeat Datang's arrogance!"

He got up to take his leave, and Zamp saw him outside the door.

Seeing Lu Dongzan being surrounded by people and going away, Zanpu said softly: "The fate of Tubo! But I can only sit and watch."

Behind him, a confidant said: "Zanpu, someone outside said that the sons and grandchildren of the prime minister are all staring..."

"What do you mean?" Zapp turned around and asked.

The confidant said: "The prime minister is old, how many years can he last? Five or ten years at most, but what about after that? Is it possible to return the power to Zanpu? Lu Dongzan will not agree, and his children and grandchildren will not agree... Outsiders said , as long as you become a powerful minister, or you will always be a powerful minister, once you retreat, the emperor's revenge will be extremely tragic."

Zamp looked at his confidant calmly.

"besides!"

The confidant cheered up, "It is said that Zanpu has made arrangements for a long time. At that time, one of his sons will become the prime minister and the other will become a general, so that he can continue to control the civil and military power."

"The Prime Minister will certainly not be like this."

Zamp spoke calmly, but the right hand behind his back grabbed the robe, the robe twisted, and the knuckles of that hand turned white...

...

"Princess, the Prime Minister is here."

Wen Cheng put down the book in his hand and rubbed his eyes.

"What is he here for?"

"Meet Zamon."

After Lu Dongzan saluted, he smiled and said: "I have prepared an envoy. He will bring the most noble gift to Chang'an to remonstrate with the emperor. He will bring the loyalty and friendship of Tubo. Zanmeng may have a letter to bring back. ?"

Wen Cheng said flatly: "The emissary brought back my letter last time."

Lu Dongzan smiled, "The eagle leaving the nest has to look back at the nest, after all, it is the place where it was born and raised."

This is close to persecution!

Wen Cheng said flatly: "Everything I have is in Tubo."

Lu Dong stood up, "That's fine."

Lu Dongzan left, and the maid said, "Princess, you rejected him."

"He said that the envoy's going to Chang'an represents loyalty, but I know that Lu Dongzan is never loyal to anyone. He also talked about friendship. When an opponent talks about friendship with you, you have to be careful about him..."

The maid said: "Could it be..."

Wen Cheng said: "Lu Dongzan is very abnormal... What does he want to do? Could it be that he wants to attack Datang?"

...

"Old Chen."

Li Chendong is back.

"Have you found anything?"

Chen Wude squatted by the fire and cooked.

Li Chendong said: "The big cart keeps heading west. I saw it, it should be a grain cart."

Chen Wude turned over the pancakes on the slate, and was startled suddenly.

"West! West..."

He raised his head, "We are going to Bolu in the west...Lu Dongzan is preparing."

Li Chendong said: "This way we can pass the news back."

"Wait a little longer, we'll talk when we're sure. Otherwise, we'll let the imperial and Chinese troops gather in Anxi with one word, and consume countless manpower and financial resources... Alas!"

Chen Wude pressed his hand on the pancakes, and the pancakes were covered with black smoke, and when his fingers pierced the pancakes and pressed them on the hot stone board, black smoke also came out.

"Aw!"

...

Xue Rengui is back.

Behind the army, he led hundreds of light cavalry, accompanied by Ashina Helu.

When it was only five days away from Chang'an, Ashina Helu invited Xue Rengui to see him.

The Turkic Apollo Khan, who was once mighty, knelt in front of Xue Rengui and said: "I was a wild dog wandering in the grassland. The first emperor treated me generously, but I shamelessly betrayed him. The gods are angry, how can I be undefeated?" ? I heard that most of Han'er's murders were in the downtown area, as an example to others. I am willing to be executed in Zhaoling to apologize to the late emperor."

Xue Rengui peeled the mutton with a knife in his hand and said for a long time, "Wait."

"yes!"

Ashina Helu was covered in cold sweat.

Immediately, a fast horse entered Chang'an City.

"Xue Rengui returned triumphantly, less than two days away from Chang'an. Ashina Helu pleaded guilty, saying that the first emperor was lenient to him. I was thinking that he was like a wild dog back then. The first emperor kindly gave him two thousand tents and gave him righteousness , but this man is ambitious... He begged to go to Zhaoling to apologize, and this kind of thing might sacrifice Zhaoling?"

Originally, Zhaoling was sacrificed once, but the nature was different. That time it was to show the military power of the Tang Dynasty to comfort the late emperor.

This time it's just an enemy chieftain, is it in line with the rules?

The prime ministers looked at each other.

This matter...is it inappropriate to disturb the peace of the first emperor for the sake of an enemy chieftain?

Xu Jingzong was not annoyed, "Your Majesty, in ancient times, the victorious armies sacrificed captives in the ancestral temple. Most of the captured enemy chieftains were sacrificed before the emperor. I have never heard of the mausoleum of captives. However, I am thinking that the sacrifice of captives in the ancestral temple is also a sacrifice to the ancestors. The sacrifice of captives is obvious." Isn’t the mausoleum a sacrifice to the ancestors? The late emperor will be very happy when he thinks about it.”

Li Zhi's eyes were still blurry, but his headache was better. He said with relief, "That's fine. I'll go to the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Rites. Chaozhong..."

He looked at the blurred figures and said, "Go to Shangguanyi."

This is an important activity to accumulate qualifications.

Shangguanyi secretly rejoiced, "Yes."

Empress Wu said, "Who will go to the Ministry of War?"

Li Zhi glanced at her, "Let Jia Pingan go."

Seeing that the smile on Shangguanyi's face froze, everyone couldn't help laughing.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Li Zhi asked with a smile: "Why are you laughing?"

Naturally, the embarrassing things about colleagues cannot be said, so the prime ministers remained silent.

But Xu Jingzong blurted out, "Your Majesty, when I heard that Duke Zhao was also going, Shangguan Xianggong changed his face."

Li Zhi couldn't help smiling, "Why?"

Xu Jingzong spoke harshly again, "This way to Zhaoling, I'm still offering captives. I want to come to the Shangguan Xianggui to make a lot of poems, but Xiao Jia is by my side, but he can only say a word. Isn't it aggrieved?"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Everyone couldn't help laughing wildly.

This Xu Jingzong!

Li Zhi couldn't help thinking of Xu Jingzong's performance at the funeral of Empress Wende. Seeing Ouyang Xun's ugly appearance, this guy burst out laughing, and was later reported and exposed.

Such a courtier is capable and frank, exactly what the emperor likes.

And Li Yifu...

Li Zhi turned his eyes and looked at the blurred figure.

After the prime ministers left, he said: "Pay attention to Li Yifu."

...

"Why not my husband?"

Qin Sha felt that there was something wrong with the emperor's arrangement, "Could Shangguanyi still be able to deter Ashina Helu?"

Li Yifu sat down and said wearily, "Jia Ping'an has gone too. Ashina Helu will probably fight against him when he sees him."

Qin Sha sat down, "Sir, Your Majesty's attitude is getting colder and colder."

"The old man knows, let's see."

Qin Sha returned to his duty room and thought hard.

"The emperor's attitude is indifferent, which probably has something to do with the fall of Guanlong. What about the gentry?"

He thought of a possibility, "If the emperor wanted to keep the gentry, then the gentleman would be useless. The emperor has no strong opponents, so why keep the gentleman? The birds are gone, the good bows are hidden..."

He suddenly laughed, "But the gentry are not reconciled. Even people like Lu Shungui who don't stay out of the nest have come to Chang'an, which shows the determination of the gentry."

"That's right, now that the new learning is booming, the Confucian classics that the gentry relied on have also become useless. They will be uneasy and worried that they will continue to weaken. In this way, they have only two ways. One is to attack the new learning, and the other is to let themselves as much as possible. People become officials and influence the government through countless officials..."

"In this way, the emperor must keep his husband."

Qin Sha's mood improved, and he went home immediately.

His wife Yang is cooking.

"How is Auntie?"

Qin Sha went in to help, and brought down the clay pot where the mutton was boiled.

Yang said: "Aniang is in better spirits today, but she is skinny. I helped her, but she is all skinny."

Qin Sha looked sad, "I know Aunt is suffering."

He made a bowl of mutton soup and took it to the backyard.

Mrs. Zhang was lying on the bed, the room was dark, her hair was gray, her cheeks were deeply sunken, and her eye sockets were the same, looking terrifying.

"Auntie."

Mrs. Zhang moved her head slightly and forced out a smile, "Da Lang."

"Mother, drink mutton soup."

Mrs. Zhang can't eat pasta now, and it can't be digested, so the family makes more chicken soup and mutton soup for her.

"Aniang, I added white jade tofu to the mutton soup. It tastes really good. I almost couldn't resist eating a piece of it before."

"Eat when you're hungry."

Mrs. Zhang laughed.

Mrs. Yang came to help Mrs. Zhang up, and Qin Sha helped, and found that her mother's body was really skinny.

He laughed and said, "Eat this to keep healthy, that's what the medical officer said."

Mrs. Zhang sat up and gasped, "How do you know the medical officer?"

Qin Sha said: "I met him last time, so I invited him to drink and asked him. He said that chicken soup and mutton soup are good, and boiled pig bones are also good."

After drinking the soup, Qin Sha went out. Yang Shi was about to clean up, but Zhang Shi grabbed her wrist.

Zhang's eyes sparkled, "Is Da Lang still working for Li Yifu?"

Yang subconsciously said: "No, Husband is just a petty official now."

Mrs. Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good."

Yang sighed inwardly.

"Da Lang is filial, he doesn't want me to leave, I can still keep an eye on him and keep him away from Li Yi's mansion. If I go, Da Lang will probably hurt too much, but I can't bear it..."

Zhang's sunken eyes were filled with tears, "This disease! It hurts me so much. I can't sleep at night, and I feel that I am suffering during the day. But I can't go! If I go, Dalang will be sad How far is it? Foolish, foolish... How dare A Niang leave when you are like this?"

Outside, Qin Sha stood on the side.

The sun is good.

He looked up at the blue sky.

bordering on greed.
