Chapter 175: The Rise and Fall of the Tang Dynasty

Zhao Tieleng rebelled? Will Zhao Tieleng, one of the four generals, rebelled? Will Zhao Tieleng, the head of the Zhao family, one of the four major families in the Tang Dynasty, rebelled? How is this possible?

If someone else said this, Zi Chen and others would have killed him mercilessly. This was a crime to disrupt the morale of the army, but the person who brought this news was Changsun Wuhui. Changsun Wuhui, who had saved his life at the cost of his life just now, could not deceive himself, and he would not be able to joke about such a thing.

It's just that such facts are really unacceptable.

The four generals of the empire, Changsun Ce, died in battle. Ziyang's whereabouts are unknown. Now Zhao Tieleng rebelled again, leaving only Hu Yunlie, who was guarding Beiyun City. Is it true that the Tang Dynasty is about to perish?

"Your Highness, you don't hesitate. Let's go quickly. Once the grassland demon comes, our number of people is not enough to fill each other's teeth?" Seeing the surprise on several people, Changsun Wuhui said in great sorrow.

His Royal Highness shook his body and his eyes fell on his biggest competitor, Li Zijun.

"Brother, let's go!" Li Zijun also knew that now was not the time to hesitate. Now the war was ignited in the west and south of the Dafang Empire at the same time. After losing the border between Xilun Fortress and the south, they could only compress the defense line. Otherwise, no matter how many soldiers there were in the Tang Empire, they would not be able to defend such a long border line.

With his current situation, His Majesty is afraid that he will introduce the grassland demons and rebels into Guanzhong together and fight to the death.

This is a war that concerns the rise and fall of the Tang Dynasty!

Seeing everyone's eyes, His Royal Highness nodded vigorously.

There were more than 100,000 corpses on the battlefield. They had no time to clean the battlefield, and they could not even organize the women and children of Anning City to leave Anning City.

Anning City has been completely abandoned, and this city can only be abandoned.

Just as the prince and others were hesitating how to take away the remaining women and children, Anning City caught fire. When His Highness sent someone in to check, the news came that the women and children had already known that Anning City was destroyed, and they even knew that the demon army was not far away and could come to kill at any time.

When they learned that Anning City was unsuccessful, they ignited the entire Anning City in pain. They were unwilling to leave. In addition to being unwilling to drag down His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and others to march, they were also unwilling to leave this city that had lived for generations.

The sky was lit in Anning City, and the battlefield also ignited a raging flame. The prince and others who could not deal with these corpses could only ignite them with tears.

Looking at the burning flames and the flames that burned half of the sky, even Zi Chen couldn't help but shed tears.

This is the Tang people. Even if they are just the most ordinary people, even if they are just a group of women and children, they still have their own pride.

Zi Chen cried, Li Zijun cried, His Royal Highness cried, Even the white-haired Changsun Wuhui and Lin Xubai cried, and Ximen Wuhen cried even more sadly.

They left Anning City in tears and howled, leaving this city doomed to be destroyed.

Zi Chen did not blame Lin Xubai for coming soon. When Lin Xubai appeared, he saw that he was already in a state of turmoil. In order to get here, he didn't know how many hardships he had experienced along the way.

However, when Anning City was burning in the fire, and when more than 20,000 women and children in the city watched the army leave quietly in the fire, his heart was filled with hatred.

This strong hatred is not aimed at the grassland demons, but at the Taoist sect.

At this point, even the fool understands that this is a situation set by the Taoist sect behind it, a situation that subverts the Tang Dynasty. If he hadn't destroyed their plan in the north, he would have probably been surrounded by three sides now.

The people of the Northern Desert, the demons of the grassland, the southern Taoist sect, and the three major forces actually attacked the Tang Dynasty!

Zi Chen didn't know what the future of the Tang Dynasty would be, and he didn't even know whether his father could break out. He just followed the troops silently and continued to advance towards the hinterland!

In the Gannan Plain, the chaotic battlefield gradually subsided. The 10,000 cavalry led by Zi Yang were almost wiped out, and the grassland people also left more than 50,000 corpses.

If it weren't for the large number of demons in the grassland, it would have been a tragic victory.

Golden Khan Wanyan Bilie, the national squad, and the injured Mu Yunxue stood quietly on a high ground in front of the battlefield. Looking at the huge earth pit a hundred feet away, the three of them were silent.

The immortal master of the Taoist sect set up a large formation of Tiangang, which trapped Zi Yang here. However, even so, he was almost escaped by Zi Yang. If it weren't for the immortal master Wu Xiu's use his own life soul as a guide to break through the void and dragging others into other spaces, Zi Yang would have already broken out of the siege.

Zi Yang, the first person in the Tang Empire military, is really powerful and desperate.

Mu Yunxue had completely lost her mind to compete with Zi Yang. He knew that he would never surpass Zi Yang in his life.

At this moment, he was just standing quietly beside Khan. He even resigned from his position as commander of the Sky Eagle Iron Cavalry, and now he is only willing to be the personal guard of the Golden Khan.

No matter what, Zi Yang disappeared after all. There were two immortal masters in the realm of consciousness who disappeared with him. I don’t know which unknown space they went to. Under such circumstances, they did not think Zi Yang could come back alive.

At this time, a messenger came to report and news came from Anning City. When he learned that the Tianlang Iron Cavalry led by Tiemuyun was almost destroyed, and he did not enter Anning City or even killed His Royal Highness, Wanyan Bilie crushed the sword in his hand to pieces. This waste could not even deal with a group of defeated generals?

"Khan doesn't have to be angry. Whether the prince of the Tang Dynasty dies or not is actually irrelevant. Now Zi Yang is no longer there. Without his stop, who can stop our army!" Seeing the angry Golden Khan, the national magistrate comforted him.

"Hmph, national master, do you know who saved the prince and others at the last moment?" Hearing the national master's persuasion, the Golden Khan, who had always respected the national master, snorted coldly.

"Who?" The national teacher was stunned. Who made Khan so angry?

"Changsun Wuhui!" Huang Jin Khan almost gritted his teeth and spit out these words, and the national teacher's expression was stunned.

After a while, the national teacher said lightly: "Don't worry, Khan, if I see him next time, I will execute him with my own hands!"

Wanyan Bilie nodded gently and ordered the people below to start cleaning the battlefield, then turned around and returned to his commander's account. However, the national sect stood on the hill and looked towards Chang'an, with deep eyes... The Tang Empire was vast, and the Central Plains region occupied twelve major prefectures and thirty-six provinces.

If the three provinces on the grassland are added, there are thirty-nine provinces. But now, with the fall of Xilun City and the defeat of the Gannan Plain, the entire western provinces have been occupied by the grassland demons.

After Zhao Tieleng's rebellion, the huge south became the territory of the rebels. Now nearly half of the provinces in the north, the seven provinces in the east, and the eight provinces in the central region that the Tang Empire could control, have fallen into the hands of the enemy.

The Tang Dynasty had more than three million regular army, which seemed to be a lot, but most of these more than three million were local troops, and the most powerful legions were the elite legions under the command of the four generals.

The Zi Ting Legion, which is gradually based on the Purple-Yiwei Guard, the Beidou Legion, which is gradually core with the Huyun Iron Cavalry, the Western Expedition Legion, which is core with the Xuanyi Iron Cavalry, and Zhao Tieleng's Iron Blood Legion.

Of course, the imperial guards in the imperial city are also extremely powerful. They are the best in the world in terms of personal strength and equipment. However, compared with the four major legions, the imperial guards, which rarely experience war, lack blood.

The four major legions each had twenty guards. According to the military system of the Tang Dynasty, one guard had five thousand soldiers.

Under the destruction of several powerful immortal masters, the Western Expedition Legion was the most severely damaged legion. The twenty guards were almost wiped out. Next was Ziyang's Zi Ting Legion. When he learned that Xilun City was broken, Ziyang personally led the twelve guards to the western front, but the twelve guards were also destroyed.

As for the Beidou Legion, in the battle of Beimo, the Beidou Legion was destroyed by the twelve guards. Even if the troops were replenished in time, there were only sixteen guards now, and two guards were taken away by Zi Chen. The remaining fourteen guards had to defend the extremely long border line.

It can be said that the strongest combat power is Zhao Tieleng's Iron Blood Legion. When Zhao Tieleng rebelled, all the officers of the Tang Dynasty were finally killed immediately, and the soldiers of the twenty guards were controlled by Zhao Tieleng with iron blood.

In other words, the 600,000 most elite people in the Tang Empire are now less than 350,000. It is almost a dream to rely on 350,000 people to resist a million troops, so the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty immediately launched a conscription order.

Countless Tang men were summoned to the army and first joined the guards from all over the country. The guards from all over the country kept drawing forces to the long-term, elite soldiers all came out of battle. These guards who have always lived in the mainland and rarely saw blood continue to gather towards the southwest battlefield.

Not only these local guards, but even after learning that Gannan was defeated, Hu Yunlie also drew 50,000 Beidou Legion, led by deputy general Cheng Yuntian to the front line.

He even withdrew all the newly built North Wolf City garrisons. Now there are only one Huyun Iron Cavalry with 10,000 people left in the entire North Yun City, and 80,000 ordinary soldiers.

This is all Hu Yunlie can do. When the world attacked the Tang Dynasty, there would never be any accidents in the Beimo, otherwise the Tang Dynasty would be in danger.
