Datang Dynasty: The bloodbath in Tiance’s mansion at the beginning

To the north of Yinshan Mountain, lies the royal court of the Eastern Turks.

News of the civil strife in the Tang Dynasty finally reached here.

Jieli Khan was so excited that he quickly summoned his ministers to discuss the matter of going south.

"Li Shimin, King of Qin in the Tang Dynasty, launched the Xuanwu Gate Rebellion and killed Prince Li Jiancheng and King Qi Li Yuanji."

"As a result, he was forced to commit suicide by Li Chengdao, Li Jiancheng's eldest son. Also killed were a lot of generals from the Tiance Mansion!"

"This is a God-given opportunity. If you don’t go south to clear grass in the valley, you will be sorry to the Wolf God!"

The counselor Zhi lost his thoughts and said excitedly:"Almost all the most capable generals in the Tang Dynasty are dead!"

"Today's emperor is just a child of more than ten years old. How can such a Tang Dynasty be our Turkic opponent!"

Liang Shidu handed over his hand and asked for the imperial tassel,"The last general is willing to lead the army south and bring down the Tang Dynasty! Yu

Gushe also knelt down on one knee and said,"The general is also willing to lead his troops straight down to Jingyang and attack Chang'an!" Astew silently drew his sword out of its sheath and said,"The head of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty belongs to this general. No one can take it from me!""

For a time, there were endless calls for war in the entire tent.

Everyone wanted to personally lead the troops to fight, invade the Tang Dynasty in one fell swoop, and plunder supplies. In the bitter cold land of Turks, a large number of people would freeze to death and starve to death every winter.

Every summer and autumn, they took advantage of the autumn harvest in the south to attack the border on a large scale and rob the winter supplies.

The Tang Dynasty was in turmoil, and many famous generals died, and there must be unrest internally.

It was they who attacked the Tang Dynasty and forced the court to give gifts. Opportunity!

Seeing the momentum of everyone, Jieli Khan wished he could go south to hit the grass valley today. He was also in a good mood.

However, at this moment, he found that military advisor Zhao Deyan was silent and a little nervous.

He had always trusted this southern literati, and he was in a good mood. He followed his advice and gained a lot.

Now that a great opportunity was in front of him, he did not express his attitude. Could it be that things had changed?

Jieli Khan quickly asked him:"Mr. Zhao, do you think it's inappropriate?"

When everyone heard Jieli Khan's words, all their eyes turned to Zhao Deyan who was standing aside.

However, unlike Jieli Khan's respect, most people in East Turkestan did not like this Han Chinese.

Zhao Deyan ignored the looks of others and looked at Jieli Khan

"Does the Great Khan want his army to go all the way south and reach Chang'an? Jieli

Khan wondered,"The current internal turmoil in the Tang Dynasty is not a good opportunity for us to take action?""

Zhao Deyan asked again,"How many troops does the Great Khan plan to lead on this trip? Where will he start from and how many troops will he divide into?"

Jieli Khan was silent. He only thought about attacking the Tang Dynasty and had not thought about this issue.

Seeing that Jieli Khan did not speak, Yu Gushe said directly:"Of course we will send 300,000 troops and go south from Shuofang. Directly to the Weishui River, the sword points to Chang'an!"

Zhao Deyan said nothing, looking at him as if he were an idiot. He was so disgusted with Yugushe that he drew his knife and wanted to fuck him, but he didn't dare.

Jieli Khan originally thought this was feasible, but saw that Zhao Deyan was hesitant. Without saying a word, he felt a little unsure.

"Mr. Zhao, what do you think?

Zhao Deyan replied:"Three hundred thousand troops are too many!""

"The Yi men of Xue Yantuo in Mobei have already decided to submit to the Yehu Khan of the Western Turks, so they must leave soldiers and horses to guard them just in case."

"It is not appropriate to go straight down from Shuofang. The army has a large number of people. There are small towns along the way and the supply of food and grass is insufficient."

"It is better to divide the army into two groups and attack from Jingzhou and Xiazhou at the same time. The supply will be just right along the way and it can also disperse the Tang Dynasty's troops."

"As long as we cross the Luoshui River, the terrain is convenient for cavalry to attack, and we will soon reach the Wei River and march to Chang'an!"

When Jieli Khan heard this, he was extremely surprised and immediately stepped forward to hold Zhao Deyan's hand.

"I have a husband, just like Liu Bang has Zhang Liang!"

"With Mr. Wang Zuo’s talents and Mr. Wang’s advice, this Khan can unify the Turks and it will be just around the corner!"

Faced with Jieli Khan's flattery, Zhao Deyan responded with a smile.

"The Great Khan has the appearance of a dragon and a tiger, and is inherently precious. A mere Turk is the treasure of the Great Khan!"

"My assistance from the side is just the icing on the cake, the Khan's strength is the most important!

Jieli Khan laughed loudly,"Sir, you have won my heart, you have won my heart!" He looked at everyone,"

From now on, Mr. Zhao's words are my words. No one is allowed to violate them. Anyone who disobeys the order will be executed!""

"yes!"

Although the people below are unhappy, they can only obey orders.

Anyway, this Zhao Deyan has been showing off his power in East Turkestan for more than a day or two.

Even the young Khan of East Turkic, Turli Khan, did not dare to be presumptuous in front of him.

But I have to say that Zhao Deyan’s plan today is indeed much better.

The plan has been completed, and Jieli Khan is overjoyed

"With your help, we will be able to conquer Chang'an on this trip and force the Tang Dynasty to surrender!"

Everyone knelt down and congratulated:"Wolf God bless you! Congratulations to Khan!"

After the court meeting, Zhao Deyan returned to his residence.

It was quiet and elegant inside, which was incompatible with the tough customs of Turks.

Especially the table in the corner was filled with books and scrolls, many of which were torn.

Among them was a piece of paper , written in cursive, the distribution of troops in the Tang Dynasty, which the Turks could not understand at all.

Zhao Deyan leaned on his chair, not knowing what he was thinking...........
