Chapter 13 Youzhou asks for help(1/2)
The Turkic Iron Cavalry is known as the best in the world.
This is not their bragging, but the fact.
Not only that, their marching speed caught the Tang Dynasty off guard.
With the current strength of the Tang Dynasty, what should we use to block the Iron Cavalry of the Turkic Barbarians?
There is another more important factor in the reason why the northern border cities are vulnerable.
That is, most of the generals guarding the frontier were Li Jiancheng's old subordinates.
Now Li Er kills his brother and ascends to the throne.
These generals defending the city were naturally dissatisfied.
Facing the fierce and brutal Turkic cavalry, how could they really fight to the death?
"Your Majesty, the northern border is in danger now."
"In the opinion of the minister, the court should send troops to the Wei River as soon as possible to block the Turkic barbarians and outside the country."
"Otherwise, the Central Plains will probably be bloody!"
Li Jing said with a serious expression.
Li Er nodded from the side.
This is probably the best way now.
Otherwise, when Jie Li Khan drove straight into the city, his troops would come to the city of Chang'an.
I still don’t know how many people will die under the scimitar of the Turkic barbarians.
"Report your Majesty, the frontier is victorious! The frontier is victorious!"
And at this moment, a burst of exclamations rang out of the house.
Then he rushed in in panic.
"What?"
Li Er exclaimed immediately.
"Your Majesty, the scout comes to report the great victory in Yunzhou!"
Wuling said excitedly.
Li Er immediately laughed to the sky.
"Let the scout in Yunzhou come in and see me!"
As the words fell, a dusty scout appeared in front of everyone.
"Let me tell me how great the victory in Yunzhou was!"
Li Er said impatiently.
The scout in Yunzhou explained the story in detail.
After hearing this, everyone was very pleased!
It has been almost a month since Jie Li Khan led his troops south.
All the news received by Chang'an is news that the border is in danger.
Now that Yunzhou is victorious, everyone is naturally very excited.
This is not just the first victory of the Tang Dynasty.
It also means that the northern gates of the Tang Dynasty are still there!
"Who is the governor of Yunzhou? I will definitely be rewarded!"
Li Er said, holding back the joy in his heart.
"Go back to Your Majesty, the garrison of Yunzhou is Zhao Dezhu, my brother-in-law."
Qin Qiong said slowly from the side.
Speaking of this marriage, Chai Shao naturally made an indelible contribution.
If it weren't for his recommendation in the middle, Qin Qiong wouldn't have married his sister to Zhao Dezhu.
"General Zhao was seriously injured in the previous battle with the Turkic barbarians. Now the one who guards the city should be his children."
Li Jing explained from the side.
"It turns out that heroes have been born as young men since ancient times!"
Li Er said appreciatively.
"My nephew Zhao Can is a loser. I believe it is all my niece Zhao Shengnan."
When Zhao Can was mentioned, Qin Qiong couldn't help but sigh.
Since Yunzhou is far from Chang'an, the news brought by this scout was nothing more than the previous battle situation.
If they learned that Zhao Can invented the crossbow chariot and defeated the Iron Cavalry of nearly 10,000 Turks.
I don’t know what everyone should think.
"What a man is not as good as a man! It seems that my Tang Dynasty will have another female general!"
Li Er laughed happily as he said.
"The great victory in Yunzhou is still in the frontier. The most urgent task now is to send troops to support quickly!"
Li Jing said to the point.
Although Yunzhou achieved a temporary victory.
But the border crisis is still untouched.
"What the pharmacist said is very much. I wonder who is willing to lead troops to support the frontier!"
Li Er nodded and said in great agreement.
"I am willing to lead the troops there!"
Yuchi Jingde said loudly at the top of his voice.
As Li Er's number one thug, he is present every time he discusses.
He is good at fighting and killing, but he can't even get a word about this advice.
He was almost crazy.
Now that he has finally found an opportunity to speak, how could he miss it?
"Same for me!"
Cheng Yaojin echoed.
"Okay! I will appoint you two as vanguard generals and lead a 10,000 army to support the frontier tomorrow."
Li Er said firmly.
...
The first victory in Yunzhou made Li Er ecstatic.
However, in Yunzhou City, a banquet was held in the General's Mansion, celebrating this second greater victory.
In the history of the Han family.
With less than 5,000 troops, the Turkic barbarians were massacred.
This is a brilliant record that has never been seen before.
All of this is Zhao Can's contribution.
Seeing that his bastard son was so promising, Zhao Dezhu was so happy that he couldn't stop talking.
But now, Zhao Can's tail was knocked into the sky.
"Come to Shuang'er, let the young master touch me and see how you are developing!"
"Wangcai, pour wine for me quickly!"
"You're so scared that you're not looking. Why don't you go and kill another chicken!"
Zhao Can shouted and said, the bastard's prodigal temperament was full of excitement.
There were corpses everywhere outside the city, but the general's mansion in the city was made by this prodigal bastard like the New Year.
There is no way, who made this battle his credit?
Zhao Sheng on the side was so masculine that his teeth were itchy.
But she made a great contribution to this bastard, and she couldn't stop her.
And just as Zhao Can teased the maid in the family while drinking and eating meat.
The soldiers guarding the city suddenly came to report.
To be continued...
