Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty Chapter 2164: Rescue, roster!
,!
"...What~? Tie Le's ten divisions are determined to rebel? Chaos is about to break out in the grassland?"
The frontier army camp, after the people of Su Dingfang settled the tens of thousands of troops brought by Tuli, they brought Tuli, Tang Jian and others to the camp of the Chinese army. Tang Jian said in very short words, After introducing the current situation of the grassland to Su Dingfang, Su Dingfang's expression lifted, and he couldn't help being surprised.
Wang Yun, Ding He, Cao Shan and other generals sitting under him were also full of disbelief after hearing the words, as if they were dreaming.
As frontier soldiers, they naturally know that there will be a big battle between Datang and Turks soon. In addition, they also know the strength of Xieli. In terms of hard power, Xieli is stronger than Datang In the future, the national war between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks is bound to be a protracted and dangerous struggle!
But they never imagined that Turkic, which was originally in a good situation, would have a serious civil strife at this time. This is really God bless Tang!
"Exactly!"
At this time, Tuli couldn't wait to take over the words, and said: "If the ten tribes of Tiele hadn't decided to rebel against Tubi, they would never have let Ben Khan's troops leave the grassland! And before leaving the grassland, Qibi tribe The emissary also tried to coerce Ben Khan to lure the Tang army to the north and cooperate with them to deal with Tuli after he came to Datang, which is enough to show that the Ten Divisions of Tie Le are now fighting against Tuli!"
Su Dingfang heard the words, and Wang Yun rushed down with a serious face and ordered: "Wang Canjun, you write a letter immediately to inform the imperial court of the changes in the grassland and the situation here, and send eight hundred miles to rush to deliver the letter overnight." To Chang'an!"
Wang Yun nodded, and then said with embarrassment: "But it's already dark now, and it may be inconvenient for the messenger to travel at night..."
The roads in ancient times were not as smooth as modern ones, and there were street lights. Riding a horse in the dark, it is easy to get lost or have other accidents.
Su Dingfang insisted: "The situation is urgent and the military situation is on fire. I can't take care of that much. The sooner this information arrives in Chang'an, the sooner His Majesty can make a decision!"
He has already seen a fighter opportunity from the current situation in the grassland, a peerless fighter opportunity for Datang! He believed that Li Er would be able to see it too!
At this moment, Su Dingfang couldn't help but think in his heart, if he had a telegraph on his side, plus a person who could use it, it would be great!
When he was in Chang'an, he had heard Li Jing talk about the magic of the telegraph, and he knew that this thing could send messages across thousands of miles in an instant. I just don't know if he can use the telegraph at the border of Yunzhou to send the news back to Chang'an City!
"Yes!"
Wang Yun bowed to accept the order.
Seeing that Su Dingfang had completed the arrangements, Tuli hurriedly said: "General Su, the 10,000 Qingqi led by Ben Khan are just the vanguard, and Ben Khan has more than 90,000 troops. Come! They carry heavy and old, weak and wounded soldiers, and their marching speed is much slower. If they are overtaken by aggressive troops, they may suffer heavy casualties!
Ben Khan led the Qingqi one step ahead, thinking that he would join the Tang frontier army first, and then return to the grassland with the reinforcements to meet the remaining troops! I don't know how many troops there are in the Soviet general camp? Are you willing to go back to the grassland with Ben Khan to meet Ben Khan's tribe? "
At this time, Tang Jian nodded to Su Dingfang, indicating that Tu Lifang was right.
Su Dingfang pondered for a moment, and replied: "This is just a frontier army camp in the north of Yunzhou. Including the Huotou Army, there are only 9,000 troops in the camp! Little Khan wants to take care of the rest of the troops, so Su is naturally willing Full support.
However, the situation on the grassland is unclear at the moment, and it may be dangerous for the little Khan to go there. I will suggest that the little Khan and Tang Guogong move to the Yunzhou Camp first. I will lead the troops into the grassland with your light cavalry. , to meet your followers, I don't know what Little Khan wants? "
From the interests of Datang, the safety of Tuli and the current 10,000 Qingqi is definitely more important than the safety of the more than 90,000 Tuli tribes who are still on the grassland. As long as Tuli successfully surrenders to Datang , it is definitely a heavy blow to Xieli's prestige on the grassland! Moreover, when Datang attacks the grassland in the future, Tuli and these Wan Qingqi can become the "guide" of the Tang army!
As for the more than 90,000 Tuli tribes on the grassland, Su Dingfang was not particularly concerned about their safety! But if the 90,000 or so people can be rescued at a very small cost, it will be a great harvest for Datang!
So Su Dingfang is willing to take the risk of this task, but the premise is to ensure the safety of Tang Jian and Tuli!
At this time, Tang Jian cooperated and said: "General Su's suggestion is very pertinent. The situation in the grassland is not clear now. Little Khan might as well go to the Yunzhou camp with the old man first, and General Su will take your men to meet those who are still in the grassland." The troops! In addition, there are many generals and strong generals in the Yunzhou camp. After we go, we can also invite more reinforcements to support General Su and the others!"
Tu Li showed hesitation, Ni Shutuo saw this and said: "Khan, you should go to the Yunzhou camp! The general will personally bring people with General Su to bring all our people back!"
Seeing this scene, Tuli no longer hesitated, he nodded, stood up and clasped his fists at Su Dingfang and Ni Shutuo and said, "That's good! The people of this Khan tribe, please entrust General Su and General Ni Shutuo!"
"You are welcome, little Khan!"
Su Dingfang cupped his fists to return the salute, and then ordered to the left and right: "Cao Shan! Immediately lead a team of people and **** Tang Guogong and Little Khan to the Yunzhou Camp, nothing will be lost~!"
"Yes~!"
A middle-aged general with cheeks stepped forward to take orders, and then bowed to Tang Jian and Tuli, saying: "Tang Guogong, little Khan, please follow the future!"
Tang Jian and Tu Li nodded, followed Cao Shan to the outside of the tent with a few personal guards.
At this moment, Su Dingfang got up and said: "Ding He, immediately count the soldiers and horses. After a quarter of an hour, the whole army will attack and enter the grassland with the brothers from the Tuli Ministry!"
"Yes!"
Another general took orders loudly and left.
Not long after, a team from the frontier camp, one from the south and the other from the north, rushed out to the south and the north respectively. The guard of the battalion, heading north, is a joint army composed of the frontier army led by Su Dingfang and 10,000 Qingqi led by Qibihe. Nineteen thousand horses headed straight for the grassland.

"The last general, Li Junxian, reported to His Majesty that after an emergency interrogation, Zhao Deyan, the leader of the Turkic spies, has confessed all of them. Now the last general can confirm that all the Turkic spies in Taiyuan City have been wiped out. The last general decides to open the city gate early in the morning. , so that Taiyuan City returned to normal, and secretly sent people to search for Wang Kui and Wang Xinyuan...
...... After Zhao Deyan defected to the grassland, relying on his flattery skills and familiarity with the official system in the Central Plains, he was quickly appreciated and reused by Xieli, and helped Xieli carry out a large-scale reform of the official system on the grassland.
...However, at the beginning of the reform, there was a lot of resistance, and many tribes even openly rebelled against Xieli. In order to make the reform go smoothly, Zhao Deyan suggested that Xieli form a wolf guard to clear away the obstacles on the road to reform!
According to Zhao Deyan's confession, the members of the wolf guards are all masters and elites selected by him from the Han prison camps in the grassland. Their families are all under the control of Xieli's army, so they are all loyal to Xieli ...
… Among the wolf guards, there are two divisions, Ming and An, the Ming is responsible for tracking, assassination, and other tasks, while the An is much more mysterious. Send a message up the peak.
According to Zhao Deyan, the forces of the Anbu of the Wolf Guard cover a very wide area. Not only are they lurking in the major tribes of the grassland, but even the Tang side has been infiltrated by them!
This time, Zhao Deyan led 208 wolf guards and dark guards, and the reason why he was able to sneak into Taiyuan City so smoothly, apart from the help of the Wang family Wang Kui and Wang Xinyuan, was more relying on the wolf guards' dark guards over the years The meticulous work of pressing and inserting in the states and counties of the Tang Dynasty!
Because these people were originally from the Central Plains, they knew the situation of the Tang Dynasty very well. With the secret support of the Turks over the years, they mixed into various states and counties, either as small government officials, or as a giant merchant, and some even became The honor of a county!
Hiding in the dark, they kept sending information about Datang to the grassland, bribed the superiors, and made friends with powerful people, so as to provide convenience for them! Zhao Deyan and others were able to sneak into Datang and Taiyuan City so smoothly this time, it is inseparable from the help of these wolf guards and dark guards who have been lurking in Datang for many years...
At the end of the day, after seeing Zhao Deyan's roster of secret guards lurking in the Tang Dynasty, he was shocked. If the roster provided by Zhao Deyan is correct, I am afraid that more than ten states and counties in the northern border of the Tang Dynasty have already been covered by wolf guards. Anbu is riddled with infiltration. If these latent tumors are not removed in time, the northern border of the Tang Dynasty may be in danger...
The general knows the importance of this roster. To ensure nothing goes wrong, the general will send his cronies to send the roster back to Chang'an early tomorrow morning. Your Majesty, please give me an order~! "
At 6:00 pm, in Chang'an City, inside the Lizheng Hall in the Xiyuan Palace of the Imperial Palace, Li Er received the second telegram from Li Junxian from Taiyuan City. After reading the contents of the telegram, Li Er's expression became a little Serious, even a little cold.
"Your Majesty, what's the matter? But what happened to Taiyuan City?"
Empress Changsun hurried over and said worriedly.
Seeing Li Er's serious face, she thought that something happened to Taiyuan, and she couldn't help worrying about Li Tai's safety, thinking that it must not be Li Tai's accident again!
Li Er put away the telegram, turned around and embraced Empress Changsun, and said softly, "Don't worry about the Guanyin maid, everything is normal in Taiyuan. This is Zhao Deyan's confession. According to his confession, the Turkic spies in Taiyuan City have been arrested. All cleared!
I just didn't expect Zhao Deyan to use the Turks to play such a big game of chess. He has placed spies and intelligence networks in every state and county in the northern part of my Tang Dynasty. It will be infiltrated by Turkic forces and be riddled with holes! "
Empress Changsun breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that there was nothing wrong with Taiyuan, and then she was a little surprised: "This Zhao Deyan has such a huge force?"
At first, she only thought that Zhao Deyan was just a small leader of Jieli's subordinates, but from Li Ercai's words, the opponent was obviously powerful, and had already infiltrated all the counties in the northern part of the Tang Dynasty! For Datang, this person can definitely be regarded as an extremely dangerous element!
"Yeah! I didn't expect that either!"
Li Erxin said with lingering fear: "Fortunately, this time, for the sake of Qingque and the teachers and students of Yanhuang Academy, this guy actually took the risk and sneaked into Taiyuan himself. Otherwise, it would be really difficult for me to catch him, let alone get him The specific roster of the subordinate forces! With the roster sent back to Chang'an by Li Junxian, I will be able to wipe out all the Turkic forces lurking in the northern states and counties of the Tang Dynasty in one fell swoop! When sending troops to the north to attack the Turks in the future, there is no need to worry anymore The rear is unstable!"
Li Er was in a complicated mood at the moment. Li Junxian grabbed Zhao Deyan and forced him to find out the roster of wolf guards and dark guards lurking in various states and counties of the Tang Dynasty. Although Li Er was very happy and excited, the price of all this was It was exchanged by Li Tai and the elite teachers and students of Yanhuang Academy at the price of personal risk!
As he analyzed earlier, if the bait (Li Tai and all the teachers and students of Yanhuang Academy) was not attractive enough, Zhao Deyan, the cunning and life-saving leader of the wolf guards, would not have personally led people to sneak into Taiyuan City at the risk of his own life , and it is impossible for Li Junxian to catch Zhao Deyan and force him to find out the roster of wolf guards and dark guards!
According to Zhao Deyan's confession, the internal organization of the wolf guard is strict, and the members perform their duties. Only Zhao Deyan knows the complete roster of the wolf guard's dark department. It doesn't help at all! Only by catching Zhao Deyan can we uproot the Turkic forces that have been lurking in the Tang Dynasty for these years!
If he was given another chance to choose, and he could predict everything that happened in Taiyuan City in advance, would he let Li Tai and the teachers and students of Yanhuang Academy be the bait to catch Zhao Deyan, a big fish? Woolen cloth?
Li Er had such a strange thought in his mind for no reason, but soon, he shook his head and extinguished the thought!
"Your Majesty~IndoMTL.com~ Your Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince and Princess Changle, please see me!"
At this moment, a court lady came in, saluted Li Er and Empress Changsun, and said.
"Let them in!"
Li Er came back to his senses, turned his head and smiled at Empress Changsun: "These two children must have come here to inquire about Qingque! In the past few days, their brothers and sisters have also made a lot of troubles about Qingque Heart!"
Empress Changsun pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Seeing these children get along well now, I am very happy every day. I was always worried that Chengqian and Qingque would hurt their harmony because of the competition for favor. Now it seems , I am too worried!"
When Li Er heard this, his mind moved slightly, but he smiled and said nothing.
Let's talk about Li Chengqian and Changle, the two brothers and sisters are indeed here to inquire about Li Tai's news. Earlier they heard the report from their subordinates, saying that the Qin Tianjian sent two telegrams to the Lizheng Palace. He guessed that it might be the news from Taiyuan City, so he hurried over here!
As for Li Ke, he hasn't lived in the palace for a long time, so he doesn't know the news, and he can't come here with Li Chengqian and Changle.
