The battle that took place in the early summer of the eighth year of Yongde was beyond everyone's expectations.
Later historians believe that Yasi made several big mistakes in this battle. The biggest mistake was to rush into a decisive battle with the Tang army. They believed that Yasi should use his superiority in numbers to deal with the Tang army, gradually bring the Tang army into the territory, and then
Look for opportunities to weaken them.
But another group of people sneered at this, saying that what Emperor Li Xuan of the Tang Dynasty was best at was raiding. If Yasi retreated, Li Xuan would definitely use elite cavalry to raid his food road.
Once the war enters the way Li Xuan is good at, Yasi will never find a chance to win.
The two sides disagreed, but they reached a consensus on one point, that is, in the battle command of that battle, Yas was completely defeated.
——He was almost like a child being beaten by His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
There is no way to fight back.
He is the shame of Luoluo... This is the unwilling moan of Luoluo people in the long history.
…
When the Prince of Tang Dynasty led his army to the front, the fleeing Luoluo people completely collapsed.
Yas called in vain for his confidants to protect him, but his confidants had long been dispersed by the rebel army.
He saw Danbas reaching out towards him in the chaos, his eyes desperate.
He saw Holden shouting filial piety among the rebels, wielding a long knife to kill him...and then he was dragged off his horse. From then on, he never saw his son again.
"kill!"
A somewhat childish roar came from behind, and Yas felt chilled.
"That's the big shot!"
someone shouted.
Then, the wind of swords passed over Yas's head, and one hand grabbed his back collar and easily lifted him over.
Li Laoer looked at the prisoner lying in front of him nonchalantly, "Who are you?"
The fat elder rushed over on horseback, grabbed Yas's hair and lifted it up, then shouted ecstatically: "I've caught Yas! I've caught Yas!"
The emperor rushed over on horseback. At this moment, Yasi was being held by Li Laoer with one hand. Because his collar was tightened, his face turned red, as if he was going to be strangled in the next moment.
"Who captured it?" asked the emperor.
Capturing Yas will be of great help to subsequent attacks.
"King De!"
Wang Laoer and Yourong Yan's way.
"It's me!" Li Laoer grinned.
"Put him down."
Li Laoer let go and Yas sat down on the ground.
Horse hooves appeared in his sight. Yas looked up and saw the emperor taking off his helmet and said to him:
"To be honest, I really didn't expect you to choose to flee."
An interpreter translates the words.
Yas' face flushed, "I was just swept away..."
"At that time, the emperor will either die on the way to attack, or he will die on the way to intercept the pursuers. The only thing he cannot do is to flee."
The emperor dismounted and said, "Even if the defeated emperor returns to his capital, the whole world will question you. As long as you reign for one day, the whole country will be dejected. You are a coward!"
The prince is back.
"Aye!"
"This is my prince!" the emperor introduced: "Before the war, he took the initiative to ask for help to intercept the defeated troops. Did you know? Before the war even started, my son concluded that this battle would be won."
Yas lowered his head, his Holden! He will never come back.
"Is this Yas?" The prince looked at Yas curiously.
"Yes, that's him." The emperor smiled and said, "What do you think?"
The prince looked at Yasi carefully and said, "Aye, I somewhat understand what you mean when you say that emperors are also mortals."
"Tell me about it," the emperor said with great interest.
"Once a person regards himself as a god, the decisions he makes will be full of mistakes. It is better to clearly know that he is just a mortal from the beginning. Only in this way can he reflect on himself and not be conceited."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Emperor Da Le pointed at Yasi and said, "Tell him what you mean by these words."
After listening to the interpreter's translation, Yas's eyes clearly showed a look of despair, and then he gritted his teeth and said: "Lolo will rise again and will take revenge for this!"
"But have I promised to give them a chance?" The emperor said calmly: "You think that I am here just to defeat your so-called invincible army? Then you think too highly of yourself."
"You want to kill Luo Luo?"
"Let's have a moment of silence!" The emperor nodded slightly to him, and then he was surrounded and walked away.
Han Ji walked over and looked at Yas curiously, "You have no idea what kind of opponent you have provoked. Luo Luo will become a word."
The emperor led his army to pursue him all the way, and he even marched with prisoners, which puzzled Asbestos who was following him.
When facing a city, the emperor pointed to the top of the city and said to the prisoners: "Fight in, and I will pardon your death penalty. You will get 30% of what is captured in the city."
Crazy!
Yas saw the prisoners who had sworn allegiance to him and Luo Luo rushing toward the city with green eyes.
After a bloody battle, these red-eyed prisoners massacred the city.
The emperor was noncommittal and did not deal with them.
Those who brought the captured prisoners spontaneously formed an army and followed the army.
They fought fiercely and treated their own people with incomparable cruelty. The Luoluo people they killed along the way were frightened by the news... They would rather face the Tang army than face the prisoners who had already been killed and had no relatives.
The further back, the weaker Luoluo's will to resist becomes.
Those cities were afraid of being massacred, so they often opened the city and surrendered without waiting for the emperor to order the prisoners to attack.
The emperor ordered a horse to go to Chang'an to report the victory, and took his instructions with him.
"Tell Liu Qing and the others...", the emperor thought for a moment.
"People here are stupid and have a lot of money. Come quickly!"
When the army arrived at the outskirts of Linton City, there was chaos in the city.
The army is gone, the emperor is captured, and the prince is missing...
Even the powerful official Danbas is gone.
Who will decide?
A group of ministers are discussing.
"There are still ten thousand troops in the city and plenty of food and grass. We can hold on."
"There are also many young men in the city. If necessary, they can also participate in the battle."
A group of ministers Kang passionately stated that they wanted to live and die with Linton City. Then, they elected Yasi's youngest son to succeed...
But this farce was stopped by several generals.
They roared and beat the excited ministers severely and took over the situation.
The leader, the veteran general Hoss, ordered martial law, and then discussed with everyone the next solution.
"Now that they have arrived at Linton City, they will never withdraw their troops easily." Huos had suggested not to send troops at the beginning, but to defend all the way and use the city to consume the Tang army, but Yas did not adopt his advice.
"But they didn't launch an attack," a general said.
"It shows that I don't want to pay too much."
"We need an envoy to test them." Hoss said, "Besides, we know nothing about the emperor, which is very dangerous."
"Dambas's daughter Shania once stayed with the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty for a long time."
"That flower?" Hoss asked.
"That's right."
"Then, invite her."
Shania, now a married woman, came to the palace.
"Your father Danbas died in battle, please express your condolences!" Hoss said.
"I have been mentally prepared for this." Shania said.
"Well, the situation is critical at the moment. For the sake of the people in Linton City, I want to know what the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty would do when faced with this situation. Will he magnanimously enter the city and show off his withdrawal, or... we need someone
Get acquainted with his messenger.”
Hoss looked at the powerful minister's daughter, prepared for rejection.
That Tang Dynasty man...Scenes from that year appeared in Shania's mind.
"Lolo is like a triumphant hunting dog, thinking he is invincible. But they don't know who their opponent is. It is a lion,
You'd better not resist, otherwise... you will be torn to pieces by the lion. As for Luo Luo."
Thinking of her efforts to persuade her father to no avail before he left for the war, Shania's eyes darkened, "I will do my best."
…
"Aye, what are we going to do with Luo Luo?"
Outside Linton City, the prince who had seen Dung Mountain asked with a bitter face.
The emperor breathed in the somewhat familiar odor and said: "A Liang, you have to remember that a large territory is often not a good thing. It will involve Chang'an's energy and endless resources. If we turn Luoluo into the territory of the Tang Dynasty,
In the future, whenever someone rebels here, Chang'an will have to send troops from a long distance away... Even if Xijiang is there, Luoluo is too big, and it will rise again one day."
"Then...should we destroy it?" The prince shook his head, "I can't kill the people."
"As a father, I can't do it, but we still have many ways."
"What method?"
"For example, we can divide Luoluo into countless parts, each part is a small country. Before withdrawing our troops, we use various means to plant the seeds of hatred between them... In the future, what Datang will do
Just watch, and whoever has too much advantage will be given a beating. Whoever is too weak will be supported. By the way, they can also sell weapons..."
The prince's eyes lit up, "Wonderful!"
The emperor smiled and said: "Before the emergence of convenient transportation, we can only deal with distant countries in this way. Of course, those uninhabited areas must be occupied. Don't look at the desolation now, but when the population expands, A Liang, Shitou
Food can be grown in every crack."
"Your Majesty, an envoy has been sent from the city."
The envoy surprised the emperor.
"Are you... Shania?"
Shania performed a court salute, "Long time no see, Your Majesty."
"yes!"
The emperor looked indifferent.
Shania glanced at him and saw that after so many years, the heroic messenger had transformed into a majestic emperor. In his eyes, her beauty had become garbage in a mountain of dung.
"They want to ask you what you will do with Loro."
"Tell them that I am here only to punish those idiots who started the war. The Tang Dynasty has no interest in Luo Luo!"
This is not the young man I know!
"Luoluo is willing to surrender." Even though she knew that the emperor in front of her was like a hungry lion, and that the weak Luoluo was a delicacy in his eyes and could not escape, Shania still wanted to give it a try.
"Promise?"
Immediately, Shania saw calmness and contempt in the emperor's eyes.
"Yes." Shania was desperate.
"I accept it." The emperor said lightly, but Shania took a deep breath, saluted, and turned back to the city.
A gust of wind blew by, and the maid behind her heard murmuring from the front.
"Lolo, it's gone."
When Shania sent the news back to the city, Hoss made a decisive decision and ordered the city to be surrendered.
In the autumn of the eighth year of Yongde, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty accepted Luo Luo's surrender outside Linton City.
He sat in Linton City and summoned all forces in Loro. Immediately, a conspiracy that swept Loro began...
Standing on Linton City, the emperor looked in the direction of the sea and smiled ferociously.
…
"Luoluo has perished."
News of the surrender of Linton City reached the dozen or so small countries. They were panicked and contacted intensively. Immediately, they made the decision to postpone the attack on Zhongzhou and formed a coalition force to prepare for the possible expedition of the Tang Dynasty...
In Zhongzhou, the emperor's first letter also reached the hands of King Wei.
