Chapter 1170 The picture is poor
"Catch up, they chased all the way to Yinshan, and finally caught up with General Guo's team."
Niu Jianhu picked up the wine glass, looking a little excited. When Qin Lang saw this, he knew that Guo Xiaoke was definitely not at a disadvantage, even though he had just heard that after Guo Xiaoke broke the Yanqi King City, he left a thousand troops for Su Pozhun, and he only brought less than two thousand horses with him, and escorted more than 20,000 Yanqi captives Return to Gaochang.
Two thousand versus five thousand.
Tang Jun has an advantage, after all, the reputation of the Tang soldiers is not built. A pair of three is not a disadvantage, let alone a pair of two and a half?
In fact it is.
Niu Jianhu was drooling all over the place, as if he was at the scene at the time. When General Guo saw the smoke and dust rising from behind, a large group of Turkic cavalry chased after him, his expression was calm and unhurried. Why did he send the deputy general to **** the captives back to the valley behind, and he personally led 500 elite cavalry to stop them head-on.
What made the three generals each lead five hundred horses and ambush on the left and right sides of the valley. Then Guo Xiaoke led 500 cavalry to fight. After a battle, he pretended to be invincible, hid his flag and retreated. Qu Lichu was overjoyed when he saw this, thinking he had won, so he pursued him relentlessly.
Before leading the Turkic soldiers into the ambush circle, General Guo gave a loud roar, then turned his horse's head and reined in.
In an instant, there were shouts of killing from all sides, and the three generals each led five hundred fine cavalry to rush out, breaking the four or five thousand Turkic cavalry who had been chasing all the way into a long snake formation...
After a **** battle, the Turkic army couldn't resist and began to be defeated.
General Guo stared at Qu Lichu's wolf flag and pursued fiercely. The Turkic army fled in all directions, chasing and killing for twenty miles. If you dare to pursue, you have to lead the army back.
"By the way, Qu Lichuo also had a leaky house, and it rained overnight. He gathered the remaining 2,000 defeated soldiers and walked back, but was ambushed again on the way."
"Where did the ambush come from again? Could it be that General Guo couldn't fly because he had grown wings, so he went around behind them?"
"That's not to say, but the ambush is very particular. The leader of the army is the first to fight out and announce his name loudly. I am the general under the command of Yibi Shekui Khan, and the leader of the Shunishi Department of the Wudulu Division is also half-sipping. Qu Li slurs the dog thief, take his life, ah ah ah ah!"
Qin Lang almost spit out the tea in his mouth when he heard it. This show off full of the storytelling style of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms really looks a bit like it.
"Half a sip?"
"That's right, Qu Lishui didn't expect that after chasing the Tang army, he was defeated by a small number of troops. When he returned, he met the general of Yibi Shekui Khan halfway. After a fierce battle between the two sides, Qu Lishui The army was originally a defeated army, and at this time it was ambushed by tens of thousands of half-cupped troops, and it will soon be defeated again."
"Chu Banchuu chased after him, and chased all the way to the Yanqi King's City. Qu Lichu was forced to open the city gate. As soon as he entered the city with his front feet, Chu Banchuu drove the defeated soldiers from behind, and entered the Yanqi King's City along the way. Qu Lichu was defeated, so he had to enter the city through the north gate and escape through the south gate, Yanqi Royal City was captured by Chu Banchu just like that!"
Chu Banchuu worked hard for a long time, but ended up making a wedding dress for Chu Banchuu instead.
After Chu Banchu took control of Yanqi King City, he supported Long Tuqizhi and Long Lipozhun's cousin Long Xuepoanazhi as the new Yanqi King, claiming to help Yanqi restore.
He also ordered his general Ashina Chuna to be Yanqi Tutun, and led the army to stay in Yanqi, named Xie Shou, who actually held Yanqi's power on behalf of him and manipulated power. King Longxue Poanazhi was just his puppet.
Long Xue Po Anazhi exiled Long Li Po Zhun, who was established by Guo Xiaoke, in Kucha, and secretly sent envoys to ask the King of Kucha, Helibu Shibi, to kill Long Li Po Zhun.
Cheng Chuliang was shocked.
"This Wudulu tribe is a subordinate of Yipi Shekui Khan, right?"
"That's right, now the Western Turks are supported by the Wunushibi tribe to support Yugu to establish itself as Yipidulu Khan, and the Wudulu tribe supports the Yibishekui Khan who was conferred by the Tang Dynasty, but Yugu's establishment is now in great power ” Said the bull when he saw the tiger.
"Then I don't understand, this Yibi Shekui Khan was canonized by the Tang Dynasty, and from his uncle Nilu to Tong'er, and then to his father, his family's Khans have been my Tang emperor for generations Canonized, how could Yipidulu Khan have the guts to dare to oppose Datang? Or is it that the leader of the Shunishi tribe, Chu Banchu, is so bold that he dares to do things behind his back?"
Qin Lang put down the teacup in his hand, and explained to Cheng Laoer, who was obviously not very experienced, "When Nidun fled, he fled to Yanqi, and King Yanqi took him in. The Nishi family has always had a good relationship with Yanqi. Of course, this is not all the reason why Chu Banchu dared to send troops to Yanqi, they sent troops just like Qulishu, it was only for profit."
"The behavior of taking a half-sip is definitely not an individual behavior. He didn't have the guts to do it. He definitely got the order of Yibi Shekui Khan, or agreed to it."
If Chu Ban Chuu only attacked Yipi Duo Lu's subordinate Qu Li Chuo, then after he seized the city, it would be impossible for him to make another Longxue Poanazhi king of Yanqi, nor would it be possible to make Yanqi the inspector established by the Tang Dynasty. The governor, Long Lipo, was sent to Qiuci, which was anti-Tang, let alone blatantly restore Yanqi, which had been established as the state capital after the Tang Dynasty destroyed the country.
These behaviors all show that they not only continued to fight with Yugushe, but also officially turned against Datang.
"Why are they? This Yugu set up an anti-Tang, and said that he has always been unruly, but this Yibi Shekui is completely supported by the Tang Dynasty, and does he have the strength to oppose the Tang?"
Qin Lang smiled.
So no matter whether it is Yugushe or Yipishekui, they cannot sit still and wait for death.
"Then what should we do now? Yanqi finally took down, and it's so cheap for Yibi Shekui Khan?"
"Of course it's impossible." Niu Jianhu said angrily, "This matter was reported to the capital, and the emperor was furious, so he specially appointed the county king Li She'er as the general manager of the Kunqiu road march, and called Hou Junji to assist General Guo in the conquest. "
After Yibi Shekui Khan occupied Yanqi, although he supported the king on the surface, he actually took control of Yanqi himself. While sending the captive Yanqi Tang Junli out of the country, he sent envoys to plead guilty to the Tang Dynasty, saying that Pleading guilty, but proposed to marry Princess Datang.
Frantically testing on the verge of death.
It's just that this kind of temptation is destined to be impossible to succeed. How can Datang tolerate this kind of betrayal?
It's just that the emperor is also a scheming person, and he also knows that the strategic purpose of the Western Regions has been exposed, so now he can't be an enemy of the entire Western Regions, so the emperor suppressed his anger first, and didn't list the crimes of Yibi Shekui right away, but refused his request Marriage proposal, and then asked him to return Su Pozhun and others.
On the other hand, the imperial court dispatched Li Sheer to the Western Regions to destroy the Chuyue and Chumi Turks near Gaochang first, so as not to worry about the future, and then conquer Yanqi and Qiuci.
Yipishekui Khan wanted to take risks, and wanted to take advantage of the hostile relationship between Datang and Yipidulu Khan, as well as the current situation where Yanqi, Kucha and other countries were against each other, and wanted to gain some benefits from Datang , To regain some of the lost power, but don't know, Datang will ignore him at all.
He made the wrong idea at all. Although the imperial court has not directly sent troops to conquer him, he has also been blacklisted by the imperial court, and he is not far away from perishing.
However, after this battle, the situation in the Western Regions has become more complicated. Now almost the entire Western Regions are fighting against the Tang Dynasty, because no one wants to be annexed by the Tang Dynasty, and no one wants to follow in the footsteps of Gaochang.
After the Gaochang state was broken, the Tang Dynasty set up prefectures and counties and moved the royal family to the interior. It can be said that Gaochang’s hundreds of years of history have been completely disintegrated. The Eastern Turkic Khanate was completely abolished, so now whether it is the Yanqi Kucha and other countries, or the two infighting Khans of the Western Turks, they all realize that if this continues, the Tang Dynasty will completely annex the Western Regions , all will be losers.
Now Datang is sending troops to the West again, but it will definitely be more difficult than the previous few times against Moheduo Khan, Siyehu Khan, Yugushe, and Gaochang, because no one in the Western Regions will assist Datang again.
However, in the face of absolute strength, although all parties resisted Datang, they also had their own ulterior motives and could not really unite, so in the end Datang could still win.
"The war in the Western Regions has started again, and it will not stop in the East."
"Hasn't the King of Koguryo already asked to surrender, ceded Liaodong to plead guilty, and the court has already agreed?"
"Gao Jianwu wanted to cede Liaodong in exchange for his half of the country on the Korean Peninsula to survive, but Wu Dao refused. The news just came that Wu Dao launched a mutiny and killed Gao Jianwu."
After Gao Jianwu received Datang's Xu Jiang's order, he no longer had to worry about the future, so he began to plan to kill Yuan Gai Suwen, but Gao Jianwu's plan was not confidential enough, someone notified Yuan Gai Suwen of the news.
So Yuangai Suwen took the lead. He invited Gao Jianwu and his ministers to review his army in Pyongyang, and hosted a banquet for them. Hundreds of ministers loyal to the king, and then led troops into Pyongyang City, defeated the king's forbidden army, broke into the palace, killed King Gao Jianwu, dismembered him, and threw his body into the wild, even the funeral nothing.
Yuan Gai Suwen proclaimed himself Damo Lizhi, and appointed Gao Jianwu's nephew Gao Zang as the new king, and then regent himself.
Gao Zang is a puppet, useless in name only, military power and state affairs are all controlled by Yuan Gai Suwen.
Yuan Gai Suwen quickly launched a **** cleansing on the peninsula, killing or taking away all the surrender factions who were loyal to the Tang Dynasty. The agreement concluded by Tang.
Yuan Gai Suwen refused to be a vassal to Datang, and he also refused to cede the land of Liaodong. He asked Datang to withdraw troops from Liaodong, and only wanted to use Liaoshui and Datang as the boundary.
also said that if Datang did not withdraw his troops, he would make Liaodong a **** for the Tang army, extremely arrogant.
Not only that, Yuan Gai Suwen also began to order the nationwide search and arrest of Tang people and Tang merchants in Goguryeo, and seized and confiscated all Tang merchants' properties.
Aiming at Datang's strong sea control advantage, Yuan Gaisuwen issued the order of moving the sea and the order of banning the sea.
Forbid any merchants to trade with Tang ships coming from the sea, destroy all Goguryeo villages and towns within 30 miles of the coast, and relocate all the people within 30 miles of the coast.
For those estuaries that enter the sea, piles are erected to intercept them, and Tang ships are not allowed to land.
At the same time, he also sent people to meet with Baekje and Wa Kingdom again, ceding the city and donating gold and silver to ask them to send troops to help.
It also called on the mountain castles still standing in the Liaodong area to continue to resist, and also called on those Koguryo city residents in Liaodong who had surrendered to rise up and resist.
Both Baekje and Wa Kingdom officially responded by sending troops to reinforce the defense.
The situation in Haidong suddenly became chaotic!
