Martial Sage

Chapter 285: The Secret

Chang'an City.

Tai Chi Hall.

Although the war in the Northern Territory has continued, there has been no interruption in the early dynasty.

However, for two consecutive days, there was no news from the Northern Territory, which undoubtedly meant that everyone had a boulder in their hearts.

King Tang sitting high on the dragon chair stared at the sky outside the hall, and Fang Xuanling heard the voice of Fang Xuanling reporting the state water conservancy.

After the report was completed, Tang Wang remained silent, but he was wandering away from things, and his heart flew to the north.

Deyang.

At the gate of the northern border of the Datang, the great Tang is confronting the Turkic army.

If the Turkic army attacked the city strongly, Li Jinggong told Deyang to retreat, but that would be fine.

If Li Jing is completely defeated, the Turkic army will have to drive straight in. At that time, the entire Hedong Road and even some areas of Guanzhong will fall into it.

At that time, the imperial city Chang'an was in jeopardy!

Such a result, but who can't bear it.

"His Majesty?"

Fang Xuanling called out softly, but the sitting king Tang was still thoughtful and did not respond.

Isn't that the mentality of the veterans in the palace?

The war has begun, and people are in panic.

For this time, it can be extremely dangerous.

Everyone knew in their hearts that Li Jing basically had no choice but to defend the city.

However, things backfired. In the battle report that came, the cunning Jie Li Khan even made a siege battle, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack.

This battle report undoubtedly worsened the war that had no advantage in the first place.

Over the entire court, clouds were spreading, and his face was full of sadness.

These ministers of the Ministry of War have frequently visited the imperial study room in the past few days, and discussed with His Majesty how to deploy troops to deal with this Turkic beast after defeat.

Whenever the discussion came up, it would only go away late at night.

Under the covering of the nest, is there a finished egg?

If Datang really loses half of the country, not only the people in the invaded areas will be displaced.

Even these veterans of them will definitely suffer wanton slaughter by the barbarians.

Thinking of this, the hundreds of civil and military officials in the DPRK only felt chills in the back and chills in their hearts.

An invisible cloud has long since dispersed in the Great Hall.

Li Ji didn't close his eyes much in the past few days, looking at the king Tang, who was selling a little in the hall, moving lightly, and asked.

"Shen Guogong, is there any news from Deyang?"

Gao Shilian turned to look at Li Ji's haggard face, sighed and shook his head slightly.

The whispers here were extremely small, but the word Deyang seemed to touch a certain nerve of King Tang, slowly receding his spirits, and looked over.

Those eyes with some bloodshot eyes flashed a little, and asked hoarsely.

"Shen Guogong, North Border, is there any news?"

Hearing this, Gao Shilian raised his head slightly and replied truthfully.

"No news from Deyang came."

The one at the Great Hall clearly exhaled a rough breath, the light in his eyes seemed to dim, and he slowly leaned on the dragon chair.

Gao Shilian frowned slightly, pursed his mouth, and said.

"Your Majesty, the lack of news just means that the fighting is still going on."

At this moment, there is no news. In Gao Shilian's view, it is the best news.

The longer the Tang Dynasty soldiers lasted, the more Turkic troops would be consumed.

At that time, even if it can't resist this torrent, the Turkic forces of 30,000 or 40,000 will not cause any storms in the realm of the Tang Dynasty.

Changsun Wuji frowned, hesitated for a moment, walked into the hall and said.

"Your Majesty, the minister has something to report."

Wang Wang frowned, staring at the hesitating grandson Wuji in the hall, and waved his hand impatiently.

"speak."

Changsun Wuji raised his head slightly again, glanced at Wang Wang's gloomy face, and said to his scalp.

"The Tibetan envoy arrived in Chang'an two days ago, thinking...want to face Saint."

Hearing this, the entire Tai Chi Hall was silent.

At this moment, the Northern Territory was in the midst of a great war, and the Tubo envoys came at this moment, which meant that they would take advantage of the fire and rob.

Wang Wang's expression was a little gloomy, said.

"Have you ever mentioned the so-called so-called?"

Changsun Wuji gave a wry smile and shook his head slightly.

The light in Tang Wang's eyes flickered and he gave a cold snort.

"It's definitely not a good thing to come this time."

"not see!"

King Tang resolutely refused.

Fang Xuanling slowly walked out of the queue, stood beside Changsun Wuji, cupped hands and gave a bow, paused for a moment, said.

"Your Majesty, this time Tubo came to ask for a meeting, and I don't know what to do. If we turn them out this time, it would be a bit wrong."

"Fang Xiang said it is true!"

While speaking, Du Ruhui walked out, met Tang Wang's angry gaze, and admonished him.

"Although the war is tight now, it is still unclear. If the neighboring countries are ignored at this time, the relationship is too stiff, and it will be quite detrimental to the entire Datang."

"What's more, when the messenger came to face the saint, he didn't express his intention. It's not too late to wait for their intentions to be found out before making a decision."

Gao Shilian pondered for a long time, said.

"Your Majesty, no matter whether you win or lose in the Northern Territory battle, Datang will inevitably suffer greatly."

"Stabilizing Tubo is also a good strategy. In this way, it just frees up hands to concentrate on solving the war in the north."

"Rather than making one more enemy, actually is not making one more ally. Even if it doesn't, Tubo's neutrality will be of great benefit to Datang."

Tang Wang weighed the weight of these words.

At this moment, even if the Northern Territory is victorious, there will be no fighting force in these two or three years.

Although Tubo is guarded by a large army, if there is a change, the Tang Dynasty will be attacked on both sides, it really feels overwhelming.

Wang Wang waved his hand.

"Fine, nothing, I will announce them tomorrow morning."
