The word "side by side" king of the Tang Dynasty

The Western Turkic army was scared away outside the Beijing Pass. To the west of the Tang Dynasty, Tuyuhun had already broken through the border and marched straight in.

The northwest border was originally guarded by Li Ji, but after Li Shimin transferred Li Ji away, the northwest border became somewhat empty.

There are no natural dangers in the northwest border that are easy to defend and difficult to attack. It was all thanks to Li Ji's single-handed efforts to lead his army to resist the invading Yi tribe. This is one of the reasons why Li Ji was included in the Seventy-Two Sages.

Originally, the foreign barbarians did not dare to invade because of Li Changqing's reputation, so there was no war at the border and they were safe.

But now that Tuyuhun launched his army to attack, the northwest border pass without Li Ji could not hold it at all. In less than a day, it was defeated by Tuyuhun's 300,000 troops, and all the border officers and soldiers died in battle.

However, just when Tuyuhun was about to send his army to continue the attack, the news that King Wu's army had arrived at Chang'an City reached the ears of Tuyuhun's great Chanyu, who was immediately shocked.

"Didn't the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty say that defeating Li Changqing would be easy? Why was he killed under the royal city?"

Tuyuhun Great Chanyu was shocked and angry.

He heard Wang Gui say that Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty had a large army in his hands, which was enough to defeat Li Changqing, but he needed his help to speed up the progress, so he agreed to send troops.

But now things are developing as he expected. Totally different!

"King, we have just received news that the Western Turks' 200,000-strong army retreated at the border of Beijing. Nili Khan said that it was only to send food to Beijing, not to attack Beijing."

At this time, another subordinate came to report, which made Shanyu's face look a little ugly again, and he asked unwillingly:"What about Tubo? Why didn't I see their army? Didn’t it mean that the three countries would send troops together?"

"King, Tubo... did not send troops at all."

The subordinate said hesitantly.

Da Shanyu's expression had become extremely ferocious. Only now did he realize one thing. He had been deceived!

Why did the Three Kingdoms send troops together? How could the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty easily defeat Li Changqing? These are all false!

When the Western Turks saw that things were not going well, they found reasons to retreat. Tubo simply refused to send troops. Only he foolishly believed it and sent troops to capture the northwest border!

Now, there was no room for maneuver. If he waited After Li Changqing's army conquered Chang'an, Tuyuhun was the first target to be stabbed!

This subordinate looked at Shanyu's changing face and asked cautiously:"King, are we still going to march?" Hearing this , the Great Chanyu looked at him, slapped him angrily, and said angrily:"What the hell!" retreat! Retreat immediately!"

Now that the relationship with the Tang Dynasty has been established, what can he do if he continues to send troops to attack? Can he still conquer the entire Tang Dynasty? It is just a waste of troops.

Now his only way out is to withdraw his troops quickly and return to his country to increase the number of troops. Defend and be prepared to deal with King Wu Li Changqing!

In this way, the Tuyuhun army quickly withdrew within one day after breaking through the barrier, without even taking any loot..............

Li Changqing's army slowed down a lot because of the warm welcome from the people along the way.

During this period, they also encountered several city guards who were stubbornly resisting. They threatened the army with the lives of the people in the city and tried to stop the army from advancing.

However, without exception, these guards were secretly assassinated by the Shadow Guards. Once the guards died, the city collapsed without attack.

It took Li Changqing's army a week to reach Chang'an City. Although it took a long time, the morale of the entire army had climbed to its peak.

Four hundred thousand troops besieged Chang'an City!

The whole city of Chang'an was already full of soldiers. Li Shimin had asked the army to implement military control over the entire city a few days ago to prevent the common people from rebelling.

After the attrition of the Battle of the Yellow River and the Battle of Hulao Pass, there are now less than 200,000 available defenders in Chang'an. Facing the upcoming 400,000 troops, everyone is feeling uneasy.

Li Shimin has issued a death order, and no one is allowed to rebel and surrender. Troops are used as units. If one person in a troop chooses to surrender, the whole troop will sit together.

This harsh order was like a big stone weighing on everyone's heart. Even though many people did not want to be enemies of Li Changqing's army, they were forced to stand on the opposite side at this time.

Outside Chang'an City, 400,000 troops were encamped, confronting Chang'an City from a distance.

The wind blows and the Sheng flag flutters, and the sword armor shines with cold light.

In the handsome tent, many generals gathered together

"King Wu, now a large army is besieging the city, and the false emperor is already a turtle in the urn in Chang'an. Should we attack the city by force? Li

Jing asked with his hands raised, and looked at Li Changqing who was in command.

Li Changqing frowned slightly and shook his head:"The strategy of attacking by force is not feasible. There are still 200,000 troops defending Chang'an, and Li Shimin still has his father and dozens of people in his hands." The people of Wan Chang'an are protons.

If pressed, with Li Shimin's personality, he might not be able to do something that would kill him or her."

"In this case, why not encourage the people in the city to resist with an army of 200,000 and capture the false emperor."

Fang Xuanling suggested that this is the best way to capture Chang'an without losing any blood.

The soldiers also believed that this strategy was feasible. Not to mention whether Li Shimin would take extreme measures to attack Chang'an, Chang'an would be easy to defend but difficult to attack, and the casualties of the army would be few. Mr. Li Changqing nodded and replied:"I have also thought of Xuan Ling's plan. I have handed this matter to the Shadow Guards. I will see results in three days. If it fails in three days, I will choose to attack Chang'an!""

"Greetings King Wu!"

Fang Xuanling smiled and stepped back.

……

……

There is still a shadow guard left in Chang'an City. Before Li Changqing arrived in Chang'an, he had contacted this shadow guard.

The Shadow Guards had already provoked the morale of the Chang'an defenders several times before, and deliberately spread a rumor in Chang'an City that Li Shimin wanted to burn Chang'an City to the ground and let everyone bury him with him.

Although this kind of rumor cannot withstand much scrutiny, but three people make a tiger, once more people say it, more people believe it, and the whole city of Chang'an is full of panic. _Feilu reminds you: three things about reading - collection, recommendation,
