In the royal study, there was an exceptionally beautiful woman.
The maid beside her was also beautiful, but compared to her, she seemed like a young child.
Because her beauty was not that kind of beauty, nor was it that kind of charm. Instead, it was that kind of beauty that was incomparably dignified, incomparably dazzling, and made people look up to her.
Dazzling beauty, as majestic as the heavens.
She was the Empress of the Tang Dynasty.
Her face was flawless, a kind of beauty that should not appear in the mortal world. Just a glance at her made one's whole body boil. Even her eyebrows could not be painted by the best painter in the world. However, in Chang 'an, not many people dared to look at her seriously because she was so powerful that it made people afraid.
At this moment, Wu Chengsi was kneeling on the ground, not daring to look up at her. His body was slightly bowed and his head was lowered. His heart was filled with respect and nervousness, and he was trembling.
"Heavenly Queen, please forgive me. Nephew has lost control of the Thousand Bull Troop!”
"Idiot!" Her tone was very calm, but it was obvious that she was very angry.
Wu Chengsi didn't dare to speak, his back already drenched in cold sweat!
"Wu Chengsi, I'll give you one more chance. If you fail again, I'll see your head!”
"I will send you to the Spiritual State to be the general of the city. You only need to listen to the arrangements of the others and hold the military power in your hands! Is that clear?"
Wu Chengsi quickly replied," I understand!”
"You may leave!"
After leaving the royal study, Wu Chengsi collapsed on the ground, breathing heavily. Facing the Empress was like standing in front of a towering mountain, making one feel fear.
"Heavenly Queen, Wu Chengsi is not worthy of being put in an important position!”The elegant woman beside him said.
"Wan Er, how could this prince not know? But other than the people of the Wu clan, who in the world is willing to work for this prince! Unfortunately, you and I are both women. Otherwise, this world would have long been bengong's!”
Wu Zetian's cold tone was filled with endless helplessness and unwillingness.
……
Everything had been going well for the past half a month. Six hundred Thousand Ox Guards were probably equivalent to three thousand ordinary soldiers. After all, their individual strength was obvious. One person could take on ten people. If they were divided into teams of twenty, the Thousand Ox Guards could take on a hundred people. However, it still depended on actual combat.
Xue Shao had also borrowed some things from the system, some military formation cards, and secretly gave them to the Thousand Bull Guards to use. With the military formation, their strength would become even more tyrannical.
During this period of time, Xue Shao had cultivated the Supreme Emperor Heart Technique to the third level, and he felt that it was even more profound. The third level of the Supreme Emperor Heart Technique cultivated the spirit, which was the same as what the King Realm martial artists in this world cultivated. Xue Shao's entire person became more and more unfathomable, carrying a trace of the Emperor's Qi.
His own strength had also reached Xiantian sixth grade.
The storm of war also arrived as scheduled, but it had undergone a huge change.
Li Zhi had indeed followed Xue Shao's words and spread the news that the Turkic prince had suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of the Great Tang and then assassinated the princess. The Great Tang had announced that they would hand over the Ashderwens, or else the Great Tang would point its sword at the Turks and flatten the steppe. The Great Tang had gathered five hundred thousand soldiers in the six northern provinces to put pressure on the Turks, making it seem as if the Great Tang could send a million tiger soldiers north to swallow the steppe.
Just as the Great Tang had hoped, the Turks were in internal turmoil. The Turkic tribes were selfish people who had allied for profit, and now they were facing the threat of national destruction.
As the Great Tang had expected, the Turks began to stir up internal strife. They were divided into two factions. One faction supported the royal family and believed that they could fight the Great Tang, while the other faction wanted to hand over the royal family and prevent the Turks from being destroyed.
The two factions were fighting, and the Turkic steppe was already in flames of war. The Great Tang only needed to sit back and watch the tigers fight while it enjoyed the benefits.
But Wu Chengsi, that fool, had believed the lies of the Turks and jumped into their trap. The Turkic royal family had come to borrow soldiers to suppress the rebels, and after the rebellion was settled, the Turkic royal family was willing to surrender to the Great Tang and become a part of it.
Wu Chengsi thought that if that was the case, he would expand his territory and leave his name in history. He would definitely be conferred the title of Marquis and Minister. Who would dare to look down on his Wu family?
Wu Chengsi had sunk into this fantasy and opened up the Spiritual State, leading an army of 200,000 deep into the grasslands.
As expected, half of the 200,000 soldiers were killed and the rest were captured.
Lingzhou was empty, and the Turks took advantage of the situation to enter the pass and kill the city and wash the Dudu Mansion with blood. At the same time, the Hu people of the six counties that had long since defected to the Turks had defected, and the Lingzhou Governor's Office and its six counties had fallen into the enemy's hands overnight.
The destruction of the Spiritual Province had created a huge flaw in the defense line of the six provinces guarding the Great Tang's border. The Spiritual Province was a military hub that could support the other five provinces at any time. Now that the Turks were attacking the five provinces at will, if they broke through, the Turks would be able to march straight into Guanzhong and the Central Plains.
The Great Tang was already in danger.
He was really a mediocre general who could destroy a country.
