"Could it be that the heavens want to destroy our Great Tang?”
Li Shiming's eyes were filled with rage and grief as he looked at the fallen Tang soldiers. However, there was more despair. Because in such a situation, the army would be defeated like a landslide. In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, tens of thousands of old, weak, sick, and disabled people would all die here.
"Your Majesty, leave quickly. Even if I have to risk my life, I have to escort Your Majesty back safely.”
Yuchi Gong said to Li Shi Min, his eyes filled with determination. As a general of a country, he should protect the land under his feet.
Today, the Turkic army had invaded the Great Tang and was approaching Chang 'an. Anyone could retreat, but they could not.
" No, I can't leave. As the ruler of a country, I must not abandon the countless people in Chang 'an. Otherwise, I will be a sinner of the Tang Empire!”
Li Shi Min said firmly. No matter what they said, Li Shi Min was not willing to back down. If it was another emperor, or Li Shimin many years later, perhaps he would listen to Yuchi Gong and the other ministers.
However, Li Shi Min had only leveled up a few months ago. As a Heavenly Strategy General, he had been through many battles and still retained the vigor of a battle general.
Yuchi Gong and the other generals looked at each other and nodded to themselves.
Although they did not speak, they had been comrades for many years. They could already see through each other's thoughts from their eyes and expressions.
If it really came to the last step, they would choose to knock Li Shi Min out and escort him away. As long as they reached Jiangnan, the Turkic army would retreat because winter was approaching.
At that time, they would be able to make a comeback. After all, they believed in Li Shiming's ability and the foundation and potential of the Great Tang Central Plains.
、、、、、、、
At this moment, within the Turkic army, Jieli Khagan smiled as he watched the Tang army being surrounded and slaughtered.
"Hahaha, how can these four-legged sheep of the Central Plains compare to the bravery of our Turkic men?”
Jie Li Khan's words were filled with disdain for the Tang army. But what he did not know was that the soldiers here were not the best of the Great Tang.
The coup of Xuanwu Sect had just ended, and the entire Chang 'an Fortress suffered heavy losses. At the same time, the world was in turmoil and the hearts of the people were unstable. Otherwise, even though the Turks were powerful, they would not have been able to defeat the Great Tang to this extent.
Li Shimin's most elite Black Armor Army was still in Chang 'an. If he was not worried about the safety of Empress Zhangsun and his son and daughter, he could come and go freely with the Black Armor Army.
" Report, report to Khagan!!!"
Just as Jie Li Khagan was imagining Li Shimin and the Great Tang submitting to him, a scout suddenly appeared in front of him in panic.
He fell from his warhorse, his eyes filled with fear, and his voice trembled. It was enough to show how terrified he was now.
"Hmph, what's wrong with you panicking?”
Jieli Khagan said in a low voice. Could it be that reinforcements from other parts of the Great Tang had arrived? However, according to their intelligence, even if the Tang Bureau had military support, it would still take ten days to half a month.
This was because almost all the troops in the north had participated in the Black Tortoise Sect. They had been wiped out a long time ago because all the troops that helped Li Jiancheng were killed by Li Shiming.
"Khagan, bad news! Jade Gate Pass has been breached, and the thousands of cavalry we stationed there have been completely annihilated!”
The scout shouted.
"What?"
Khan Jie Li cried out in shock, clearly in disbelief. Jade Gate Pass? That was the border of the Great Tang, so how could someone attack his troops from there?
Could it be an enemy from the grasslands? But that was impossible! The steppe countries were currently in their honeymoon period, and because of the strength of the Turks, they did not dare to invade.
This was because they knew that this would infuriate the Turks and that they would be met with a thunderous retaliation.
Just as Jie Li Khan was wondering who had stabbed his anus, another scout rushed over.
"Reporting, reporting to Khagan, Yuan Province has been breached. The ten thousand soldiers we left behind to guard there have all been wiped out.”
Jie Li Khan was shocked, Yuan Zhou was actually broken through? After all, there were ten thousand elite Turkic soldiers there! Who did it?
"Reporting, reporting to Khan, the Spiritual State has been defeated.”
" Reporting to Khan, Liangzhou has fallen..."
"Reporting to Khan…"
Scouts from the grassland to the passes of Chang 'an and the state capitals had reported back.
The content of the report was all about the city being breached and the entire army being wiped out.
"What, what's going on? Who was it? Who did this?"
There was only one possibility for these scouts to arrive at the same time. This person who had massacred countless Turkic cavalry had pushed his way through without any hindrance.
But Jie Li Khan really couldn't think of which country did it.
"Report! A red-robed general came from behind. He held a golden spear and rode on a white tiger. He had already killed his way to Jingyang!”
