At Zhongnan Academy, Bai Fan was planning a path to Sichuan with Li Chun and other personnel. A disciple came to report that the court was in urgent need of work.

"Old Li, I'll continue to discuss it next time. You can't hurry up." Bai Fan reminded Li Chun.

"I know, I know, I am not as determined as a baby, but I am not as determined as you? Go quickly and go!" Li Chun waved his hand impatiently, his eyes pressing against the Qinling Mountains map taken out by Bai Fan. He was really puzzled. How did the dean take out such a picture? It was clearly viewed from the perspective of Feibi. Could Feibi draw a map?

In the dean's courtyard, Bai Fan just entered the house and found that the person who came was walking back and forth in the house. He was not someone else, but his father-in-law, Li Jiancheng.

"Oh? My father-in-law? Let you go there in person. So, something happened to the Japanese laborer?"

Li Jiancheng stepped forward and grabbed Bai Fan and said, "Hey, it's not Japan, but something happened in the northwest direction. It's related to your boy. I'll tell you first."

"Northwest? What can happen to the northwest? We even got Gaochang, and the Western Turks are still pointing at us for dinner. Those small countries dare to cause trouble?" Bai Fan asked with a smile.

"The thirty-six countries in the Western Regions were destroyed by the Western Turks!"

"What???"

Bai Fan exclaimed, what's going on? When did the Western Turks take action? He also informed the Northwest a few days ago, saying that the murderer was asked to hand over the immortal grain, but he was destroyed now?

"Father-in-law? When did this happen? What was the cause? A few days ago, the son-in-law even spoke to force them to hand over the murderer of the Yangtze River's grain robbery. Could it be that the Western Turks had greedy for money and destroyed them all in order to sell it to my territory?"

Li Jiancheng looked at Bai Fan's confident look and was amused by him in an instant. Do you think the Western Turks are really your thug?

"You boy, I don't know where you have such a big heart.

As we had expected, there was no problem, but it was just when you proposed to get the murderer back. There was a country in the Western Regions called Yanqi, and some of the people from the underworld of the Tang Dynasty hid in.

But when these people went to surrender, they took their babies. Do you know what kind of babies it is?"

"What? Are there any martial arts secrets? How many people should Yanqi have? No one practices the secrets, right?" Bai Fan said inexplicably.

“Wool loom!”

...Father-in-law, what did you say?

Bai Fan couldn't react a little, "Sheep, wool, loom, machine? Father-in-law, are you right?"

"When is it that you guy? I still have the mood to make fun of me?"

"Apart from me, only the Shuofang Li Daozong has finished products. Where did those people come from? Could it be that something happened to Li Daozong?" Bai Fan exclaimed.

He nodded helplessly, and Li Jiancheng sighed: "This is only when the incident happened that we only realized that when the situation broke out, the imperial army did not seem to be airtight. Moreover, this matter is probably related to the remnants of the Li family in Longxi, so the situation is very complicated.

In short, Shuofang's wool craft has been completely leaked. Li Daozong and Duan Zhixuan asked to accept the punishment and were already on the way back to Chang'an."

Bai Fan sorted out his thoughts, "Yanqi was guilty of possessing a jade penis and was destroyed by the Western Turks? This makes no sense. There is our Gaochang in the middle. How dare the Western Turks come to provoke us?"

"Haha, how afraid do you think the Western Turks are to us?

Gaochang? I said that all the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions were taken down by the Western Turks, and even our Gaochang was no exception."

"Dare they?"

Bai Fan slapped the table and stood up. At that time, all three thousand Xuanjia dared to enter the Western Turks. Now, in less than a few years, will the Western Turks dare to directly occupy the territory of the Tang Dynasty?

"They have done it. I'm looking for you, someone is going to attack you, saying that you have sponsored the rise of the Western Turks for many years, and that you have created a strong enemy for the Tang Dynasty by yourself, so you have to be careful."

"Hmph, you have to believe this nonsense!

No, can my father-in-law come here in person? If that's what your Majesty has to say, is it unclear?"

Bai Fan flashed his spirit and realized the true intention of Li Jiancheng coming.

Li Jiancheng pondered silently. After all, his younger brother was an emperor of a generation, and his heart was unpredictable.

"Haha, it's okay, my father-in-law doesn't have to make things difficult for him. The little Western Turks are playing with fire, and the son-in-law has some means to deal with them."

Looking at Bai Fan's confident look, Li Jiancheng didn't say anything, "The court is your battlefield, and you should pay attention to the emperor, not the barbarians."

But after all, he is not Bai Fan. He has different positions and his mentality. Bai Fan has never had any awe for the emperor.

At this time, the northwest of the Tang Dynasty, where the royal city of Gaochang was originally located, has now been replaced by the Western Turks.

The Western Turkic Mo Hedu's face was gloomy and gloomy. When he reflects on it, he feels incredible. He has maintained a good relationship with the Tang Dynasty for five years and suddenly took action. In less than a month, he actually parted ways. He doesn't know whether it is right or wrong.

"Zuo Xianwang, what is the movement of the Tang Dynasty? What is the border defense? "Mo Hedu Khan said in a deep voice.

"Khan, the Tang Dynasty has reduced its troops and defended heavily at Yumen Pass. Gaochang has only left some scouts and probing horses, and even the past border security checks have been removed.

We have already been on the border between the Turks and the Tang Dynasty, and you are even more Khan from Gaochang. You are in charge of yourself, so you can be foolproof.

After five years of development, we have strong soldiers and horses, and we can easily gather 200,000 troops. Now our subordinates have already felt the power of Jie Li in the Eastern Turks back then. No, we are more powerful than Jie Li. With these 200,000 troops, we are not afraid of anyone coming."

Mo Hedu shook his head and said, "You don't know, the Tang Dynasty's Lantian Hou once said that a strong country does not depend on its territory, but on its overall strength. We occupied the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions to sell it to the Tang Dynasty for money and grain, but because of a wool loom, we turned against the Tang Dynasty.

From then on, our wool trade can get rid of the Tang Dynasty, but do you know that my food supply will be cut off as a result. Without the source of the Tang Dynasty, do we all eat mutton every day?

In the long run, we may not be able to hold on without the Tang Dynasty’s counterattack.”

The Zuo Xianwang was obviously not an ignorant person, so he comforted him: "Don't worry, don't we have discussed the plan before we made a decision?

There is a saying in the Tang Dynasty that lying beside a bed, how can others sleep soundly?

Although our Western Turks have always had good trade with them, the Uighurs in the north are right. Once the Tang Dynasty destroys the surrounding countries and only our Great Turks are left, they will definitely attack us.

So we have to take action to protect ourselves as soon as possible, and this wool loom is an opportunity.

Besides, now that we have a wool loom, there is a constant stream of wool cloth and clothes. We have stuck to the Western Regions' business path and will open the business road to the West in the future, without worrying about not making money.

As for food, we should be able to survive with the strength of the countries in the Western Regions. After all, the Eastern Turkic Jieli lived a good life without growing food.

As long as we resist the counterattack of the Tang Dynasty, our lives will only be better than now, and will not be worse than now.”

Mo Hedu Khan sighed, and that's all he could do, just hope that the person from the Tang Dynasty would not be the King of Chu.

At this time, Li Er had already cut off the case in front of him by swinging his sword. The Tang army gathered urgently and the war was about to begin.
