Chapter 20 Jiannan Victory

Tashi Bianba vowed that if he had a second choice, he would not run to the front of the formation.

It's a pity that there is only one kind of regret medicine in the world, which is taken by young ladies, and it has nothing to do with him.

The fierce cavalry of the Tang Army rushed out of the military formation, and he was the first to bear the brunt.

In the fierce battle between the two armies, the highest military merit was achieved by beheading generals and seizing flags.

Both Tashi Bianba and Tashi Bianba were standing. In the eyes of the Tang army's cavalry, Tashi Bianba and his flag were the first targets. As long as he killed Tashi Bianba, he would be promoted to a higher rank and receive a bounty, which would be a pleasure.

"Brothers, kill them~!"

"The Tibetan general belongs to me, Lao Wang."

"The fart belongs to me"

Go head-to-head with the Tang Dynasty cavalry and pull him down. Zhaxi Bianba was here for a sneak attack. He had no intention of having a head-on confrontation, so he turned around and ran back.

There were seven or eight thousand people crowded behind him.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, you bastards"

"Kill those slaves who stand in the way"

"Doji leads the warriors to the top, hurry up"

No matter how fast the cavalry ran, it only took a few seconds to reach Tashi Bianba's side.

The sound of weapons clashing sounded behind Tashi Pianba.

Tashi Bianba just focused on riding his horse and ran back, not caring about what was happening behind him.

Poof

Tashi Bianba felt something piercing his body, and then his body flew up behind him.

He saw the blue sky and white clouds, the long spears and swords of the Tang army, the heroic helmets of the war horses, and the horse hooves crossing his face.

A stallion?

This is the last memory in Tashi Bianba's eyes.

In this era, only the Mo Dao team of the Tang Dynasty could resist the cavalry charge. The Tubo troops, who were not fully equipped and held forks, sticks and blades, wanted to stop the fully armed Tang cavalry. Just dream.

The cavalry of the Tang Army was like a sharp steel knife cutting into a block of tofu, directly piercing the thousands of Tibetan troops, and the infantry then covered them up and killed them.

The Tang army, which was originally hiding in the forest, rushed out from the flank.

The one-sided massacre lasted for an hour.

Except for a few who ran directly into the mountains and forests or fell into the cliff and died in panic, most of them were beheaded by the Tang army.

Cleaning up the corpses, killing the surviving Tibetan soldiers, recording heads and trees, and calculating military achievements, everything was so efficient and orderly.

After clearing the battlefield, Li Daliang and the Baiqisi spies accompanying the army each sent official letters to Li Shimin, the supreme ruler of the Tang Dynasty.

three days later

Tang Chang'an City

Tai Chi Palace

In Li Shimin's imperial study, Li Shimin was handling government affairs. Li Mingda usually stayed in Li Shimin's imperial study, eating and drinking, and watching Lao Li handle government affairs. Everything was so peaceful.

Da da da

The sound of panicked footsteps came

A little eunuch who was responsible for delivering messages at the door ran in.

"Your Majesty, urgent report from Jiannan"

Lao Li was stunned. Jiannan?

"Well, send it up quickly"

The messenger in armor carried a flag to strengthen the signal and entered the royal study. When he saw Li Shimin, he knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, Jiannan has won a great victory and killed more than 10,000 Tibetan troops. This is the general's official letter."

Lao Li asked the eunuch to take it over and don't worry about the poison inside. The soldiers who ordered the order to enter the imperial study would naturally have removed their weapons and verified their identity. They had already checked whether there was any poisonous powder in the official document.

Great victory?

Jiannan?

Li Mingda, who was eating melon seeds next to him, jumped up and came to Lao Li's side to take a look.

Lao Li read the official document too quickly. Li Mingda saw Li Daliang's last signature, and Lao Li closed the document directly.

"Okay, reward"

When the soldiers are ordered to retreat, there will naturally be rules for how much reward to be awarded. There is no need for Lao Li to worry about it, and there will naturally be a steward to take charge of this matter.

"The people are here to announce that the eldest son of the Duke of Zhao, Sun Wuji, the Duke of Lu, Cheng Yaojin, the Duke of Wei, Li Jing, the Duke of Liang, Fang Xuanling, and the British Duke Li are here to discuss matters in the imperial study."

When the eunuchs in charge of the interrogation received the news, they quickly left and ran away like wild dogs.

Why are you in such a hurry?

The emperor summoned the ministers to discuss. This is a national matter. You are running slow and you are late. If you delay anything, it is a trivial matter to be hit by a bear. It is also a trivial matter to be slapped. What if your life is lost?

That's it.

The competition for this position is also extremely fierce, and in order to accurately find the person who deserves it, prominent officials have a special intelligence team to monitor, track and protect their personal safety.

The young eunuchs led people to find the five princes. Naturally, such a big move was noticed by interested people, who speculated on what happened.

Some people with good hearing and vision thought of the urgent summons from Jiannan that had just been processed, and naturally it was clear at a glance that something was wrong with Jiannan.

Li Shimin's die-hard fans expressed concern about what happened. Those who didn't like Lao Li were filled with curses, cursing Jiannan for causing trouble and leaving Li Shimin unable to do anything. They should be greedy for money and should stumble Li Shimin.

Li Mingda doesn’t know what the bustle is like outside.

When the five princes came into the imperial study, Li Shimin handed them Li Daliang's booklet and read it one by one.

"Everyone, what do you think of this Jiannan victory report?"

Changsun Wuji was the first to answer: "Your Majesty, Tubo really did not only take action in Tuyuhun. Thanks to Li Daliang, he was well prepared and will be rewarded heavily."

"Brother Daliang, it's okay. Why don't I, Old Cheng, have such a good job? Your Majesty, please let me, Old Cheng, go to Jiannan, hehe."

Li Jing frowned and interrupted: "Your Majesty, I feel that this time may be just the beginning. Tubo will definitely take the next step. Jiannan's defense should continue to be strengthened, especially at several important stone fortresses."

Li interrupted: "What Duke Wei Guo said is right. Tubo has been spying on the Tang Dynasty for a long time. Jiannan is rich in products, so Tubo will definitely attack again."

Fang Xuanling in the crowd said: "Your Majesty, I suggest that General Li Daliang continue to prepare for war in Jiannan to deal with Tibet's backhand."

Several ministers reached a consensus, and Li Shimin said he had no objection. They then began to discuss the details, how many weapons, food, military horses and equipment were needed, and how to deal with various emergencies.

How to deal with victory, how to deal with defeat, and how to send reinforcements to Jiannan from the surrounding areas.

All kinds of things

Several people discussed it for a long time, and Li Mingda on the side listened seriously and expressed that it was too complicated.

The first is to win, the second is to prevent local armed mercenaries from self-respecting, and the interference of some local families. Are there railways and trains here? Which route does individual ordnance supplies take? How much does it cost?

This guy is not playing a game. He just pulls all the food and other things with one swipe, and then just go up and attack him.

Big head

How can I become the emperor of the Tang Dynasty? My brain hurts. I need to take a nap.

Li Mingda fell asleep in a daze, and Li Shimin and others discussed it until dark before settling the matter. After all discussions were completed, Li Shimin announced that he would invite several people to the palace for dinner.

Li Jing, Li, and Fang Xuanling wanted to decline, but the shameless Cheng Yaojin accepted without giving them a chance.

During the meal, Li Mingda naturally woke up and squatted next to Li Shimin to eat.

After the meal was average, Changsun Wuji asked a flattery that almost made Li Mingda heartbroken.
