Spoiling History: Starting from the Three Kingdoms

Compared with Li Shihuang and Su Dingfang, Li Jing does not have so many worries.

He and the emperor are together, and they don’t know any princes or princes!

Last month, he had sternly warned his son that he could read military books and join the army, but he had to keep a distance from the royal family.

Therefore, there is even time to judge leisurely at this time:

This Lu Dongzan is quite a talented person.

The way to cause trouble with the Tang Dynasty is to learn from His Majesty how to control the Western Turks.

Li Shimin thought about it for a while, and a little interest appeared on his face:

Why does Ludongzan suffer so much on the plateau?

The Tang Dynasty has a vast territory, and it is not a problem to accommodate a Ludongzan.

Du Ruhui slandered: Your Majesty, do you want to dig up the roots of Tubo?

The early death of Songtsen Gampo may be a foregone conclusion. After all, Princess Wencheng had a marriage at that time, but she was not saved even by the Tang doctor. Now it is difficult to have a marriage. The young Zanpu of Tubo is in bad luck no matter how you look at it. few.

When the time comes, once he is gone, the country will be in doubt, and there will no longer be such powerful ministers to control the situation. I am afraid that this plateau will inevitably become a stage for ambitious people.

However, Du Ruhui turned around and sighed suddenly:

It's not easy to win if you know the details.

But he immediately cheered up:

How would Your Majesty make a decision in this situation?

Li Shimin recalled it and said seriously:

Those who come from Tubo will be punished!

Those who help Tuyuhun will be rewarded!

The troops were sent to the west of Hexi, thinking that Tu Gu would make them more courageous, so they chose the right opportunity to attack!

Send elite troops from the Western Regions to find Khotanese guides and secretly attack the Tibetan rear.

It's unrealistic to kill and injure, but setting fire to it isn't easy? As long as the Tubo people realize that their territory is not a place of peace and quiet, they should act with caution.

Yan Lide was slightly excited and couldn't help but pat his brother on the shoulder.

The fact that his name can appear here at least shows that his younger brother has got rid of his identity as a painter and can be regarded as getting ahead.

Yan Liben didn't take it seriously. After knowing that painting skills can also be famous throughout the ages, his mentality has calmed down a lot.

And... after looking at the painting, His Majesty was furious, Changsun Wuji was holding His Majesty's legs and crying, Hou Junji was trying hard to hold back his laughter, and everyone else had their own expressions...

What’s not great about painting is that it’s also fun.

[It was precisely because of Gaozong’s attitude of appeasing traitors that Tubo’s embezzlement of Tuyuhun was so smooth.

Emperor Gaozong did not want to fight against Tubo, but Tubo wanted to fight against Tang Dynasty.

For Tubo, who had successfully invaded Tuyuhun, it could not only go west to occupy the Western Regions, but also go east to plunder Longyou, and go north to cut off the Silk Road of the Hexi Corridor.

Lu Dongzan passed away in 667, leaving two sons to take charge of Tibetan affairs. The eldest son was named Zan Xiruo and the younger one was named Qinling.

Because the prime minister of Tubo called Da Lun, Qin Ling also succeeded in taking power, so it was called Lun Qin Ling in history.

For these young brothers, now that Tuyuhun has been annexed, the next thing to do is to weigh the weight of the Tang Dynasty.

So in 670, urgent military information from the Western Regions was sent to Chang'an, which instantly became the headlines in the entire Chang'an city:

The Tubo general Lun Qinling officially attacked the Western Regions, conquering the Eighteen Prefectures in the Western Regions, Qiuci Batuancheng and other places, and the four towns of Anxi existed in name only.

Li Zhi, who was slapped in the face, finally couldn't sit still. After receiving the news in April, he immediately decided to go into the army!

But when it came to selecting generals, Li Zhi made the same old mistake again. He called the prime minister to study one candidate after another and studied one plan after another.

By the time Xue Rengui finally led the troops into Qinghai as the general commander of the march, it was already August.

The climate in the early Tang Dynasty was different from ours now, and Qinghai is also located on a plateau, so the climate itself is weird.

After all, Cen Shen, who was later stationed in the fourth town of Anxi, also wrote that it will snow in August. It can be said that winter may come at any time after August.

Moreover, Tubo's Lun Qinling led an army of 400,000, so the Tang army was at a numerical disadvantage.

It can be said that Xue Rengui had no choice from the beginning of the war. He could only use a surprise cavalry attack and a quick victory. If the war continued, he would be defeated.

Therefore, after entering Qinghai, Xue Rengui chose to have a heart-to-heart talk with his deputy general Guo Daifeng, whose relationship was not harmonious.

Guo Daifeng himself was the successor of the loyal martyr Guo Xiaoke, and he was Li Shi's deputy general when he destroyed Goguryeo. If you really think about it, he was still Xue Rengui's superior at the time.

Regardless of his background or resume, Guo Daifeng was very dissatisfied with Xue Rengui.

So Xue Rengui could only persuade Guo Daifeng to put national affairs first, and persuaded him with sincerity:

As for me, I took the risk of high resistance and went to Wuhai to kill the enemy.

As for you, just keep my baggage and wait for me to respond.

After leading his elite troops to attack Wuhai with light equipment, Xue Rengui met the Tibetan army at the mouth of the river.

Xue Rengui did his duty and used his horse to defeat the enemy. The Tang army captured tens of thousands of soldiers and tens of thousands of cattle and sheep.

The jubilant Xue Rengui drove the cattle and sheep back to Wuhai, and sent people to Guo Daifeng to find supplies.

What shocked Xue Rengui was that Guo Daifeng did not listen to his orders at all. After he sent out the army, he slowly marched towards Wuhai with 20,000 people and baggage behind him, intending to gain credit.

And just halfway, Lun Qinling led an army of 200,000 people to discover the fat sheep. After a fierce battle, Guo Daifeng abandoned the baggage and ran away on the spot.

Naturally, Wu Hai couldn't stay without any support, so Xue Rengui could only retreat while fighting, and retreated to Dafeichuan.

But what made Xue Rengui vomit blood was that not a single piece of wood was seen in the two camps he told Guo Daizhao to build and guard.

In Dafeichuan, the Tubo army completed the encirclement. After a fierce battle, the Tang army suffered tens of thousands of casualties. After Xue Rengui negotiated peace with Lun Qinling in front of the battle, he returned to the Tang Dynasty with the remaining troops.

After this battle, the forty-year undefeated myth established by the Tang army since the defeat of Jieli Khan was completely shattered.

Xue Rengui was removed from the army, his body turned white, and the god general who set the Tianshan Mountains with three arrows also fell. 】

This battle...

Li Shimin sighed, and now he wanted to bring Li Zhi over and beat him up:

Don't send troops when Tuyuhun asks for help. There are people of his generation who are close to the Tang Dynasty. They don't send troops. They don't send troops when April is worry-free.

We have to wait for Tubo to become powerful and for those who are pro-Tang to be armed with weapons. We don't want to send troops until the season is right!

How can you be invincible?

Guo Daifeng is the first to be blamed for this defeat, and Li Zhi is equally guilty!

As for Xue Rengui, he is indeed guilty, but the crime lies in not beheading Guo Daifeng!

Everyone could agree with what Li Shimin said before, but they could only look at each other in shock at the last sentence.

Li Jing also sighed:

Guo Daifeng did not respect military orders, which is why this Lun Qin Mausoleum became famous.

Guo Jing is a man of extraordinary courage and loyalty to the Tang Dynasty. He can be called a hero. How could his son be so ignorant?

Guo Jing is Guo Xiaoke. When Li Shimin was still the king of Qin, Guo Xiaoke followed Luoyang. He could kill generals on the spot and provide strategies. Li Shimin admired him very much, but the difference between father and son was too big.

Maybe it's because his father died early...

Li Shimin said this, and then sighed.

Su Dingfang sighed together.

He doesn't complain about his luck anymore. At least sweeping the streets seems to be useful. The light screen didn't say anything in particular. The expedition to Goguryeo and his later years should be quite stable. It can be regarded as using what he has learned.

This Xue Rengui was favored by both emperors. He could be said to have experienced several ups and downs. His experience was not too complicated.

Li Shi𪟝 sighed together, which made Su Dingfang feel strange:

Why did the general sigh?

Li Shi𪟝pretended and sighed deeply:

If you think about it seriously, these two people were the generals I led when I destroyed Goguryeo. Now that we are at odds with each other, the Tang Dynasty has been humiliated. I can't bear to see it.

Although the words Destroy Goguryeo sounded a bit harsh, Su Dingfang expressed his understanding and sympathy.

But immediately, Li Shi𪟝 cheered up and said loudly:

Therefore, if we attack the Turks and Tuyuhun, I would like to serve as the vanguard. Only by defeating the enemy can we avenge our humiliation!

Su Dingfang was stunned and felt that Li Shi was so shameless.

Not to mention that this so-called shame has not happened yet, these two people have only been your subordinates once in Liaodong, and they are not students or disciples. The defeat of Dafeichuan has nothing to do with you.

Li Shimin was also dumbfounded. He just told Li Shi that the military strategy of Tuyuhun was still being discussed and dismissed him temporarily.

…

Chengdu government office, Zhang Fei was already amazed:

How can a military advisor after a hundred years still predict events like a god!

Kong Ming calmly shook his fan and did not take any credit. He just stated the facts and said:

As Guang Mu said, after forty years of consecutive victories, the Tang army has become arrogant.

How can you be undefeated if you share the merits before fighting? If you underestimate the enemy, how can you be undefeated?
