Chapter 3263 Guanlong Target
Pei Xingjian was astonished: "If this is the case, wouldn't it be to alert the enemy and let those in Jiaohe City know that the commander-in-chief has understood his plot?"
"It's just to alert the snake."
Fang Jun took off his boots, put his feet into the hot water basin sent by the soldiers, breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the wine bottle and took a sip, and said: "Let those traitors understand that their conspiracy has been exposed." We know everything, can they still sit still and wait for death?”
Sometimes alerting an enemy can ruin a big thing, but sometimes you can force the enemy to take action and strike first yourself.
Pei Xingjian was stunned.
If those people in Jiaohe City knew that their treacherous plot had been revealed, they would definitely not sit back and wait to be killed. Now that the existence of the Turks has been known to Fang Jun, he must have a plan, and it is no longer possible to think of a surprise attack. However, those people also control an Arab cavalry. While all of Fang Jun's attention is on the Turks, Commanding the Arab cavalry to attack at the critical moment, the effect will be better than previously expected.
As long as the Arabs are dispatched, they will inevitably be close to Jiaohe City, and their whereabouts will be difficult to hide, especially under the full vigilance and investigation of the Youtun Guards.
Once the Arabs' whereabouts are revealed, it will be difficult for surprise troops to be effective. Youtunwei will have the initiative on the battlefield. It can be said that they have full control over when to fight and how to fight.
That night, Cheng Wuting took Fang Jun's command talisman and led a brigade of soldiers to set off overnight and rushed to Jiaohe City in the wind and snow.
*****
Heavy snow was falling, covering the entire Jiaohe City in a blanket of snow. From a distance, it looked like an ice and snow fortress rising abruptly from the plains.
In Jiaohe City.
There is a large charcoal basin placed in the government office. The fine incense charcoal from Guanzhong is burning brightly. It is cold and windy outside, but snowflakes are flying in the air, but inside the hall is as warm as spring.
Changsun Ming held a ceramic tea cup, took a sip of hot tea, looked up at the raging snow outside, and said with a smile: "This heavy snow has been going on for many days. In previous years, merchants' travel was blocked, and a lot of business would be reduced." Said. But now, it is. The weather was perfect, and heavy snow hid the movement of the army. Although we did not know where the Youtun Guards were, they did not know that the Turks had set up an ambush, nor did they know that the Arabs were marching straight into the hinterland of the Western Region... God help me."
Although he had planned all this for a long time, Changsun Ming was afraid of the tyrannical fighting power displayed by Youtunwei in the great battle.
Seventy-eight thousand Tuyuhun cavalry roared in. Even an ordinary army, even if its strength was several times that of Tuyuhun, could not withstand its tsunami-like impact. A complete defeat was considered an excellent result, but the complete annihilation of the entire army was also ordinary.
However, who would have thought that such a powerful and powerful army would be defeated and defeated in front of the Dadou Bago Youtun Guards position?
It is said that the Tuyuhun people who came with overwhelming momentum were beaten to a mountain of corpses. In the end, countless soldiers abandoned their horses and fled, running like wolves. Even the son of King Tuyuhun died tragically in the army, and they were completely defeated...
This battle shocked the world, and Fang Jun's reputation spread throughout the world. Youtunwei even had the title of "The First Army in the World", which was so prestigious!
Such an army that can defeat 780,000 or 80,000 Tuyuhun cavalry in a head-to-head confrontation, how can a mere 10,000 Turks be able to compete if they charge in a battle formation?
Fortunately, the heavy snow completely covered the traces of the Turks. Until now, no one has discovered the whereabouts of the Turks.
Launching a surprise attack while the Youtun Guards were completely unprepared was the only way for the Turks to defeat the Youtun Guards.
However, even if the Turks were unable to shake the Youtun Guards and failed to kill Fang Jun, Changsun Ming also deployed a backup plan, and there were still Arab cavalry waiting for an opportunity to launch...
Counting from the left to the right, Changsun Ming could not figure out how the Youtun guards could withstand the strong attack and how Fang Jun could survive.
Below him, Hou Mo, Chen Sui, and Chang Sun Han were sitting opposite each other. The former was drinking tea leisurely, with a calm expression on his face, while the latter was glaring angrily and said viciously: "As long as you put the Youtun The Wei army is defeated in the Western Region, and Xue Rengui will surely fall into a tight siege by the Arabs, and is close to death! ”
A flood in Suiye City not only drowned the Arabs' most elite "Sword of Allah", but also drowned Changsun Han's future.
Carrying a heavy responsibility but accidentally falling into Xue Rengui's trap, the eldest son Han naturally has to bear the most important responsibility. However, he is not a direct descendant of the eldest son's family. If he made such a big mistake this time, it will naturally be difficult for him to be valued by the family again in the future. It is even less likely to be entrusted with important tasks.
How could he not hate?
Hou Mo and Chen Sui glanced at Chang Sun Han indifferently and said slowly: "Fang Jun has always been treacherous, and he has repeatedly achieved special honors and used soldiers like a god. Although the overall situation seems to be settled now, we should not be careless."
< br>
Even though he said that, he still couldn't hide his excitement.
Only by destroying Youtunwei and killing Fang Jun can Xue Rengui be isolated and helpless and die under the sword of the Arabs. When the Arabs marched in and most of the Western Region fell, only the Guanlong disciples could lead the army to resist the powerful enemy and regain the Western Region, thereby taking all the power in the Western Region into their hands.
Especially after Fang Jun was killed, the Guanlong clan no longer had any restraining enemies in the court, and the foundation of the prince was seriously weakened. No matter whether he supported the King of Jin to ascend to the throne or turned to support the prince, the weight of the Guanlong clan, The status will be completely different.
Therefore, Fang Jun is a stumbling block on the way forward for the entire Guanlong clan. He must be kicked away before he can sit back and relax and continue to occupy a prominent position in the court...
As a member of the Guanlong Clan, although Changsun Ming was the leader of this conspiracy, Hou Mo and Chen Sui also benefited a lot afterwards.
Who would be willing to spend their youth in the desolate land of ice and snow in the Western Regions if they were somewhat ambitious?
Chang'an is the stage for heroes to show their talents!
When this happens, he will be a hero of the Guanlong Clan. When he returns to Chang'an with the remaining power of his great achievements in the Western Regions, he will become an upstart who is strongly supported by the Guanlong Clan. He will naturally be like a fish in water in the court, and he will be proud of the spring breeze!
Changsun Ming sipped his tea and mentioned another matter: "The Great Protector left Jiaohe City and went to Gongyue City. He must have noticed something. How do you think we should respond?"
Hou Mo and Chen Sui disagreed: "So what if you are aware of it? There is no real evidence. Even if he is the Great Protector and the King of Hejian County, he can't do anything to us."
The influence of the Guanlong Clan has penetrated into all aspects of the Western Regions. Even though Li Xiaogong was the Protector of Anxi and was nominally the highest official of the Tang Dynasty in the Western Regions, he could not be arbitrary or follow the law.
Changsun Han then said: "He is just a royal nobleman who was eroded by wealth and splendor and became strong on the outside but capable on the outside. The reason why he achieved great feats back then was mainly because Li Jing was under his command. If not, he would be just a person." An ordinary clan, if they noticed our plan this time, instead of stopping it, they were so frightened that they fled to Gongyue City alone.
Changsun Ming glanced at Changsun Han and said calmly: "The Protector has great merits and is the first general in the clan. How can he be as unbearable as you said? The reason why he avoided Gongyue City is not because he is afraid of our plans, but because he is afraid of our plans. want to do it this way Warn us, he already knows all about our plan, and if he continues to carry it out, he will definitely be dead! Do you really think that Daduhu is sitting in the office all day and not taking care of anything, so you think he is a sick cat? "< br>
Changsun Han's face turned red and he opened his mouth to argue, but in the end he swallowed his words.
Hou Mo and Chen Sui hesitated and asked, "If this is the case, should we be more restrained?"
Changsun Ming said decisively: "The arrow is on the string and has to be fired! So what if Li Xiaogong knew it well? For one thing, he didn't know our specific plan. And even if Fang Jun was assassinated by the Turks, he had no evidence to identify us. It's an internal response. Even if the lawsuit reaches Chang'an, we will take care of it! The most important thing now is to deal with Youtun Wei and Fang Jun as soon as possible, and ignore the rest."
The other two people nodded together.
After all, Fang Jun poses too great a threat to the Guanlong clan!
Precisely because Youfang Jun stood firmly on the side of the prince, the prince's prestige remained undiminished, and he united the Jiangnan gentry and Shandong families around the prince, making the prince's foundation more solid.
If the current situation continues, as long as the prince ascends the throne, the first major thing will be to eliminate the influence of the Guanlong clan in the court and divide the military and political power between the Jiangnan nobles and the Shandong aristocratic families.
After all, since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the Guanlong clan has suppressed the Jiangnan gentry and Shandong aristocratic families, suppressing these two forces to the point where they can count the officials from the three provinces and six departments in the court on one hand. come over.
Feng shui takes turns, and once these two parties gain power, the consequences can be imagined. (End of chapter)
