Yangxin Palace Hall.
Ji Hao was reading memorials, so he had some free time.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Tang has been waiting outside the palace for an hour.”
"Xuan."
"Yes."
At this moment, Concubine Tang Wu Meiniang was waiting outside Yangxin Palace Hall. She looked like she was looking forward to it, making people feel pity for her.
The palace maid at the side was carrying a food box.
"Concubine Tang, the emperor wants you to go in.”
"Zhang Rang, how is the emperor feeling now?”
"The emperor doesn't seem happy or angry, but this subject dares to guess that the emperor is in a good mood.”
Upon hearing this, Wu Meiniang finally felt relieved. She tidied up her appearance and took the food box from the palace maid's hands. Then, she walked into Yangxin Palace Hall with light steps.
"ChenQie greets the Emperor."
"No need for formalities. Why are you carrying this yourself? Let the servants do the rough work.”
Wu Meiniang's pretty face was full of smiles as she said,"Emperor, this is the Dong 'e Ejiao Bird's Nest Congee that Chenqie cooked for half a day.”
"Since you have such intentions, zhen will taste it.”
Shangguan Wan 'er was about to take the food box.
However, she was stopped by Tang Fei and Wu Mei Niang with a look.
She placed the food box on the ground and opened it. A fragrance wafted out.
He scooped up half a bowl and placed his hands on the table.
Ji Hao only took a sip, and soon finished the bowl of porridge, then said,""Mei Niang, thank you. In the future, let the servants do these things.”
"ChenQie obeys the decree, does the emperor want another bowl?”
"You know this one. No matter what kind of delicacies, this one will not eat too much.”
"Emperor, concern makes one confused. Mei Niang heard that recently the emperor has been drawing blueprints and has forgotten to eat and sleep, so she cooked porridge and sent it over.”
"Beloved consort, you're so thoughtful. I'll go to your place tonight. You can leave.”
Hearing this, Concubine Tang Wu Mei Niang was overjoyed and said,""When ChenQie arrives, take a bath and change clothes to welcome the emperor.”
Wu Meiniang walked out of Yangxin Palace Hall.
Looking at her back, Ji Hao couldn't help but sigh.
Wu Meiniang was the Empress Dowager's maiden family.
She was also his first concubine.
It was inevitable that she would be angry because Consort Xian Li Xiu Ning and Consort Ning Wang Yu Yan had taken away her favor.
An angry woman was the most terrifying.
Some time ago, because of the matter with Xiao Cairen, she was slightly punished.
He had also improved.
He knew that there was always competition for favor in the harem.
He could sit on the throne.
It was also related to his mother's success in the inner palace.
Tang Fei loved his heart.
In fact, she wasn't inferior to Consort Xian Li Xiu Ning and Consort Ning Wang Yu Yan at all.
"Emperor, Minister of War Baiqi, Lord Bai, is waiting outside the palace. He has something to report, and it concerns Tubo!”
"Announce!"
"This subject pays his respects to the emperor."
"No need to be polite."
"Your Majesty, the Tubo people actually gathered 200,000 troops to invade our borders. Now, the Tubo army has already broken through two cities. Wherever they go, not a single blade of grass will grow. They say that they want to avenge the Tubo Imperial Teacher.!”
Bang!
Ji Hao slapped the table and stood up." This king of Tubo sent me a letter of credence a few days ago," said Ji Hao angrily." How dare he attack us today? Twenty-thousand troops! It seems that this king of Tubo has been planning this for a long time!" I ask you, how many soldiers does Xiguan City have?”
"Your Majesty, Xiguan City is just a small city with only thirty thousand soldiers.”
"Who is the general of West Pass?"
"Replying to the emperor, the general of West Pass is Yue Tongfang.”
"Pass down my decree. The Tubo army of 200,000 has invaded our rivers and mountains, and the rear defense will definitely be insufficient. Order the Xixia garrison general, Lu Bu, to mobilize 150,000 troops, and the Turkic garrison general, Huo Qubing, to mobilize 200,000 troops to attack the Tubo camp. This Tubo King must be captured alive by me, and I will kill him by a thousand cuts. Massacre the Tubo Kingdom!"
"This subject obeys the decree!"
"Order Han Xin to be the commander-in-chief, Wei Qing to be the vanguard of the left wing, Han Xin to be the vanguard of the front wing, and Li Yuanba to be the vanguard of the right wing. Mobilize 400,000 troops, 20,000 Fire Commanders, and 180 iron cannons. Make sure that the 200,000 Tibetan troops will never return.”
"This subject obeys the decree!"
The emperor's anger was the anger of heaven.
When the emperor was angry, millions of corpses would fall and blood would flow for thousands of miles!
Ji Hao wanted to let the king of Tubo know the price of disloyalty!
Fortunately…
Ji Hao had already ordered Han Xin, Xiang Yu, Wei Qing, and Li Yuanba to gather four-hundred-thousand soldiers and horses and train in Sheng Province.
Shengzhou was only ten days away from Xiguan City.
Ji Hao felt that even without the imperial edict, he would still be able to do it.
Han Xin and the others who received news of the Tibetan army's invasion.
They were already on their way to Xiguan City.
"Report!"
"Speak."
"Reporting to Great General, the scouts have received important information. The Tubo people have gathered 200,000 troops and are attacking the surrounding passes!”
Lu Bu said angrily," The Tibetans have sent out 200,000 troops. There will definitely not be enough guards in the rear. Pass on my order. Lead 150,000 troops to attack the Tibetans!" I believe that Great General Huo Qubing in the Turks will definitely lend me a hand when he hears this news!”
"Understood!"
At the same time.
Huo Qubing also received news from the Turkic scouts that the 200,000-strong Tibetan army was attacking the Great Zhou border.
"Reorganize the three armies and gather 200,000 soldiers to attack the Tubo. It's time to let the Tubo people know what it means to be heartbroken!”
"Understood!"
At this moment.
Han Xin, Xiang Yu, Wei Qing, and Li Yuanba had already learned of the urgent military situation in Xiguan City!
They gathered 400,000 troops and headed straight for West Pass City.
Amongst them, in the army led by Han Xin.
20,000 people were equipped with fire elements!
There were a total of 200 iron cannons!
"Report!"
"Speak!"
"Commander, there's news from Xi Guan City. The 200,000 Tibetan troops are already attacking Xi Guan City. General Yue Tongfang, the general of Xiguan City, is guarding the city hard.”
"How long can Yue Tongfang defend?" Han Xin asked.”
"Commander-in-chief, General Yue Tongfang has made a military pledge to defend the city for three days!”
"How much longer until we arrive at West Pass City?”
"There are still seven days before we can reach West Pass City!”
" Pass down my order!" Han Xin frowned and said," Order 20,000 light cavalrymen to bring gunpowder and fire weapons. We must reach West Pass City before it falls!" Order the three armies to arrive at Xiguan City in four days!”
"Understood!"
At this moment.
There were 200,000 Tibetan soldiers gathered at the foot of Xi Guan City!
West Pass City only had 30,000 soldiers and 70,000 to 80,000 civilians!
"Yue Tongfang, surrender now!”
"Bullsh * t! I, Yue Tongfang, swear to die and not surrender. I swear to live and die with the West Pass City. Shoot!”
The city guards on West Pass City kept using bows and arrows and boulders!
They shot the Tubo soldiers who wanted to climb up with ladders and smashed them down.
However, even so.
There were still Tibetans who climbed up the city wall.
"Kill them!"
Yue Tongfang shouted angrily. He held his spear and swore to his death. With one spear, he pierced through a Tibetan soldier and brought him down from the city!
