I'm a marquis in Datang

"Yes!"

Du Qi nodded and said: "The current Tubo Zanpu Gongga was supported by this king."

The reason why Gongga was able to win was because of the army led by the left vanguard.In particular, Zuo Pioneer's operation in Tubo has weakened Gongga's own power to the extreme.

Today's Tubo cannot stand a fight.

If Du Qi is willing, he can send troops into Tubo to seize the place and expand the territory.But it's not suitable right now, because Du Qi's top priority is to deal with the Tang Dynasty's military front, and Tubo has no foundation, and it is located in an alpine region, and the population is too scattered, so there is no need to seize Tubo's territory for the time being.

Once captured, it would actually disperse the power in Du Qi's hands.

Shangguan Yi said solemnly: "If His Royal Highness can order Tubo Zanpu Gongga to lead an army to leave the capital Qiongba and garrison troops at the border to support us. Once the Emperor of Tang arrives, His Highness's army and Tubo's army will be enough to make us The emperor of the Tang Dynasty did not dare to act rashly."

Guo Xiaozheng's eyes lit up, and he admired in his heart, Shangguanyi's suggestion, when

It's ingenious, and it's a great entry point.Even, it can make the emperor's army not dare to act rashly.

When Guo Xiaozheng looked at Shangguanyi, there was no contempt in his eyes, and he agreed with him, saying: "Your Highness, the suggestion of Shangguan's military division is very good. There are Tubo's army and our army. Two armies are stationed at the border. Even if the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty came, he would not dare to attack easily."

Xue Rengui and others also echoed.

They all thought it was excellent advice.

Du Qi nodded and said: "Before the left vanguard took the army to Qiongba, let the left vanguard go this time. Xue Rengui, you still dispatch a thousand elites to the left vanguard, let him go south to Tubo quickly, and enter Qiongba to inform Gong Ga sent troops."

"Yes!"

Xue Rengui responded immediately.

Du Qi discussed with everyone the arrangements for the four states in the Western Regions, and arranged all the government affairs.After all the things were arranged properly, everyone went to work on their own, and the tents were free.

It was only then that Du Qi was free and began to write family letters. Now that there are two more puppies in the family, Du Qi loves the family even more and thinks about the children at home from time to time.Du Qi wrote down the battle on the front line, asked about the situation of the children at home, and arranged for someone to send the letter back.After doing all this, Du Qi went to the camp where he was captured by the Tang army.

Although the food for these captives was poor, Du Qi never withdrew

Too much, just to give people a little control.Then Du Qi inspected the wounded soldiers again before returning to his tent to rest.

With nothing to do now, Du Qi calmed down to ponder the memory in his head, and transcribed some useful knowledge.

There is a lot of knowledge and many applications, and it is impossible for Du Qi to guide them one by one. The easiest way is to write down the knowledge in his mind and give it to the corresponding person to study.

Chapter 830 Li Shimin Is A Little Confused

Li Shimin is a little confused

In the boring and tedious days, time flies by, and it has entered March in a blink of an eye.The weather in the Western Regions is gradually warming up. Although the temperature difference between day and night is still large, the daytime is sunny and the weather is extremely clear.

The weather in Chang'an is warmer, everything is revived, and everything is full of vitality.

On the official road outside Chang'an City.

There was a clatter of horseshoes, and one person and one rider were running fast.

"Urgent report!"

"Guazhou urgent report!"

The cavalry shouted while running.

When he approached the west gate of Chang'an City, because he shouted loudly, his voice directly reached the ears of the soldiers stationed at the gate of the city.Seeing the cavalry sentries rushing towards them, the soldiers stationed at the gate of the city did not dare to stop them, so they gave way directly.

The cavalry scouted and rushed all the way.

Go straight to the imperial city.

When they arrived at the gate of the imperial city, as soon as the sentry reported, they got off their horses and quickly entered.The Sentinel was able to go all the way, and in a short time, he came straight to the outside of the main hall and was able to enter the main hall.

After the sentry station was settled, he bowed to Li Shimin and saluted from the bamboo tube on his back.

He took out the letter jointly written by Su Dingfang and Gao Shilian, and said: "Your Majesty, Guazhou urgent report."

Tang Zhen took the letter from the whistle and handed it to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin glanced at the whistle.

Sentinel's expression was obviously eager.

Li Shimin hadn't read the letter yet, and already had a little worry in his heart.After all, this kid Du Qi has always been extremely powerful.Even though Li Shimin was worried in his heart, he quickly spread out the letter and read it.

As soon as Li Shimin saw the content in front of the letter, his expression became serious, and his expression was slightly gloomy.Especially in those eyes, there was a faint fire.

Tang Zhen knew Li Shimin very well. When he saw Li Shimin's appearance, his heart sank, knowing that it must be bad news.Tang Zhen looked at his nose and heart, and stood quietly waiting.

After a long time, Li Shimin read the letter.He never acted aggressively, but the expression on his face was so gloomy that it was about to drip water.

Li Shimin ordered: "Here's an order to summon eldest grandson Wuji to the palace for an audience."

Tang Zhen gave orders immediately.

Changsun Wuji was already dealing with government affairs in the palace, and as soon as he was notified, he hurried into the hall.When he was about to salute, Li Shimin waved his hands and said: "There is no need to salute, there is news from the Western Regions, come and take a look."

Tang Zhen handed over the letter, Changsun Wuji took it and browsed it quickly.

When he saw the first part of the letter, his body froze and his expression was even more stunned.

lost!

Hou Junji was defeated!

Not only that, Hou Junji became Du Qi's prisoner, and tens of thousands of people in the Tang army became prisoners.

Changsun Wuji's heart trembled, he looked at Li Shimin and said, "Your Majesty, Hou Junji's defeat has a great impact on us. Right now, it's just the news from Su Dingfang and Gao Shilian, and the news will inevitably spread. Countless people in the entire Tang Dynasty will know about it, and it will even cause an uproar in the court."

Li Shimin clenched his hands into fists, put them on the desk in front of him, and said in a deep voice, "It's extremely normal for something that has happened to cause shock, and there's nothing unexpected about it."

"What I am concerned about is that the letter mentioned the new weapons in Du Qi's army. There are three kinds of Du Qi's weapons. One of them is like an ambush at the gate of the camp. Once the soldiers enter, it will explode directly, causing countless people to be injured."

"The second is a weapon thrown directly, which will explode when it falls among the crowd, and it will also cause huge casualties. The third is a weapon thrown by a catapult. Once the weapon falls on the ground and explodes, within a few feet, life will be wiped out. The mud flew up and it was completely reduced to a big pit."

"This is the focus of my attention."

"Du Qi wins, what we need to consider now is not the uproar caused, but

It is this weapon.Especially apart from this weapon, the swords used by the soldiers in Du Qi's army are also extremely sharp, and a continuous slash is enough to cut off our soldiers' swords. "

Li Shimin said: "The domestic situation is still stable now. Even if there are some situations in the Western Regions, it is not so terrible. But Du Qi's weapons are what make people fear."

Changsun Wuji said: "Your Majesty's words are true, but Your Majesty, Gao Shilian and Su Dingfang mentioned in the letter that when Hou Junji was fighting, he completely ignored the overall situation and acted like a gambler. So this battle was defeated, even though there were some weapons. The reason, but in fact, there is also Hou Junji's random command. Hou Junji's blind command led to the defeat of this battle."
