"If there is any movement on the West Turkic side, we will withdraw first."
The ministers nodded.
This method is one of them, and it is the best method at present.
"Your Majesty, I have no objection!"
Li Shimin immediately ordered to go out, prepare to choose soldiers and generals, and go on an expedition to Gaochang Kingdom to try to attack.
However, Li Shimin knew that this time Gaochang Kingdom must be backed by Western Turks.
This time it was called an expedition, but it was just a small way to stop the mouths of the surrounding foreign countries, so that they would not dare to act rashly, and would not underestimate themselves.
But in fact, there is still no good way to deal with Gaochang country. No matter what, it will take another two or three years of development before the Great Tang country can easily crush Gaochang country.
Thinking of this, Li Shimin was very upset.
Wrong!
I have to endure another two or three years!
In two or three years, maybe he, Li Shimin, would have no good way to take revenge on Gao Changguo.
In order to open up trade routes, they might have to sign an agreement with Gao Changguo, and then they would have to pay Gaochangguo a certain amount of money every year.
It's almost like a tribute.
This made Li Shimin, who is already the lord of the Tang Dynasty, very displeased.
It's just that it can only be executed in this way.
Li Shimin thought to himself, sometimes it's time to wait until the end, and it's time for revenge. The only thing to do now is to endure!
……
In Taoyuan Kingdom, Cao Chun and Gongsun Zan were also discussing this issue.
This Gaochang country not only cut off the business routes of Datang.
Even the Taoyuan country's trade routes were cut off.
Qu Wentai, the lord of Gaochang, Cao Chun sent people to ask for the seized goods, but Qu Wentai's people cut off his ears.
He also said that he would not be afraid of a small country like Taoyuan country that he had never heard of.
This made Cao Chun and Gongsun Zan instantly angry!
The Lord of Gaochang is so arrogant!
Cao Chun and Gongsun Zan knew a little about this Gaochang lord.
This is a small country sandwiched between East Turkic and Western Turkic.
Now it is estimated that they have fully surrendered to the westward Turks.
Otherwise, they would not have the confidence to talk to other countries like that.
Cao Chun and Gongsun Zan naturally also thought of Li Shimin's question.
It can be said that it is quite difficult to travel thousands of miles, across the entire East Turkic, to fight Gaochang.
Whether it's supplies or anything else, it's quite difficult.
But Gongsun Zan and Cao Chun had Li Hao's skills, so naturally they didn't take this difficulty seriously.
Even if they were fighting against the Western Turks, Cao Chun and Gongsun Zan were not afraid at all.
If it wasn't for my own side to be able to slap the opponent as supremely as possible, I would have already started to flatten the whole world.
After all, the protagonist Li Hao loves soldiers like sons, and loves the lives of ordinary people.
If we really want to fight, although the Western Turks are large and have many soldiers, they are not enough for Cao Chun and Gongsun Zan to fight.
more importantly.
Naturally, Taoyuan Country also does business with foreign countries.
Eastern Turkic, Western Turkic, and even the tribes of Tiele all do business with Taoyuan Kingdom.
For example, the Western Turkic Khanate, although it has a big enmity with the Taoyuan country, the things produced by the Taoyuan country are really easy to use.
If you don't use it, the common people in your family will not want it.
Therefore, Taoyuan Kingdom made a lot of money.
And now, the Lord of Gaochang dared to detain the goods from Taoyuan Kingdom!
They even beat people up!
How can Cao Chun and Gongsun Zan tolerate this?
If Gaochang Kingdom cannot be leveled in this battle, it will be difficult to do business in the future!
To Taoyuan Country, doing business is not just an economic means.
Or political means.
Cultivate the common people in countries such as Western Turkic, Eastern Turkic and Tiele tribes, so that these common people can rely on the products of Shangtaoyuan Kingdom.
In this way, it will be much more convenient to unify in the future!
Qu Wentai, the lord of Gaochang Kingdom, really ran into the hatred of Cao Chun and Gongsun Zan.
In an instant, Cao Chun and Gongsun Zan's countless hatreds were drawn.
It's almost a no-brainer.
Gongsun Zan said: "I will write a letter to my lord right now, telling him about Qu Wentai, the lord of Gaochang. At the same time, we will send troops to Gaochang!"
Cao Chun agreed.
It's been quite a while, and they are the only ones in Taoyuan Country looking for other people's affairs, how can anyone else dare to look for them!
Immediately, Gongsun Zan wrote a letter and sent it to Li Hao in the form of a letter falcon.
At the same time, Gongsun Zan also dispatched troops and generals, ready to leave as soon as Li Hao's order was issued.
Li Hao was busy building houses at this time, and was not very interested in this kind of fighting and killing, so he let Gongsun Zan handle it himself.
Anyway, Li Hao didn't pay attention to the small Gaochang country at all, and didn't even bother what happened to this matter. This Gaochang country doesn't look good, so let's destroy Gaochang country.
What is this.
With Li Hao's permission, Gongsun Zan immediately went into battle.
Still the old rules.
Cao Chun guarded the house, while Gongsun Zan went out to fight.
Gongsun Zan led 1 Tang soldiers and [-] Turkic soldiers, a total of [-] soldiers, and galloped towards Gaochang State at the fastest speed.
Not long after, Gongsun Zan saw a real Tang army!
And this Tang army is on the way to defeat!
At first glance, this army is the soldiers of Datang.
Typical Han looks.
The armor on his body is also the standard of Tang Dynasty.
There are about 2 soldiers in this group.
It can also be regarded as mighty and boundless.
Of the [-] Tang soldiers, it seemed that there were not many casualties.
But it was obviously very tired, their lips were dry and peeled, and all of them were listless and unable to lift their strength.
Based on Gongsun Zan's insight, the [-] Tang soldiers should have been forced to defeat due to lack of supplies.
This is very common on the battlefield.
The so-called war is about logistics, if the logistics cannot keep up, no matter how you fight, you will lose.
A soldier must eat enough to have the strength to fight.
Both armies looked at each other.
Swish swish!
The Tang army had all drawn their swords and looked towards Gongsun Zan very vigilantly.
Gongsun Zan nodded secretly.
The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty had a good military discipline, and they were able to have such vigor and vigor under such a situation of insufficient food and drink.
It can be seen that the usual training is quite good.
Gongsun Zan came out and said loudly:
"I'm just passing by. I have no grievances or enmities with you. I am not your enemy!"
The Tang soldiers on the other side were visibly relieved when they heard Gongsun Zan's words.
After all, this group of Tang soldiers is already at the end of their strength, and now it is very difficult to find a place to drink water and eat, let alone fight.
Among the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, there was also a man who rode a tall horse, obviously more imposing than the others.
This man was a general of the Tang Dynasty, and he asked Gongsun Zan loudly:
"Who are you?"
This Tang general was very vigilant, and he never relaxed his vigilance until he confirmed Gongsun Zan's identity. With a long knife in his hand, he was ready to command the formation and fight Gongsun Zan at any time.
He is indeed a general who can be sent out to conquer Gaochang for thousands of miles.
Gongsun Zan said loudly:
"This general is the general of Taoyuan Kingdom, under General Li Hao, named Gongsun Zan. The purpose of our trip is only for Gaochang Kingdom. You can leave on your own, we will not do anything to you!"
Gongsun Zan didn't intend to take action against this Tang soldier.
