After eating the pancakes sent by the Lu family, all the Jie family troops began to wait for the Wei army in front to stop shouting and killing.

However, what was surprising was that the shouts of Wei's army in front of him actually rang for a whole night, and it was not until the shouts of Wei's army in the early morning that the shouts of Wei's army gradually subsided.

Just after the shouts of killing by Wei's army stopped, Zhang Hu rushed over with the soldiers who had been waiting for Fan Yangcheng for nearly a night. He originally thought that the war was about to begin, but before he arrived at the camp of Wei's army, Zhang Hu and others saw a shocking scene.

Because at this time, the Wei camp tent in front of Zhang Hu and others was already in silence. A camp of nearly 70,000 people was full of corpses and blood flowing into a river. There was almost no living person. To be honest, even Zhang Hu was a little scared in this scene in front of him.

"What did you say?"

A quarter of an hour later, Zhang Hu sent someone Fan Yangcheng to report that the Wei army had been wiped out because of the camp. Ang Lee asked in disbelief. However, after the question was finished, Zhang Hu's answer made Ang Lee happy again.

Shi Wei's army was defeated... He finally completed his mission and could return to Luoyang.

"Wan Sheng...Wan Sheng...!"

Once the news of the defeat of the Wei army came out, the entire Fanyang City was in full swing. After all, the life and death disaster that was stuck on his head had ended. On that day, all the people in Fanyang City were beating drums and drums, which was very lively.

But Ang Lee from Fanyang City would never have thought that soon, an imperial edict came over and turned the happy Ang Lee into speechless.

....................................................

Just the second day after the Wei army was destroyed, the Later Turkic Khan Mochu sent 100,000 troops to attack Lingzhou. This time, the Later Turkic was very powerful and he must avenge his previous shame.

Because the latter Turks always believed that the Tang Dynasty was their biggest enemy.

To talk about this, I still have to blame Emperor Gaozong of Tang, namely Li Zhi.

In fact, since Jie Li Khan was captured in 630 AD and the Eastern Turks fell into ruin, the Eastern Turks tribes under the Tang Dynasty were basically stable for almost half a century. However, because the Tang Dynasty often recruited them to fight in the east, the Turkic nobles continued to grow dissatisfaction.

In October of the winter of 679 (the first year of the Diaolu), the Turkic chief Ashide Wenfu, a subordinate of the Great Protectorate of the Shanyu, led two tribes under the jurisdiction of Fengzhi to rebel against the Tang Dynasty and made Ashina Nishuofu the Khan. The Turkic chiefs of the twenty-four prefectures responded to them, and the total number of tribes reached hundreds of thousands.

In March of the spring of the following year (the first year of Yonglong), Pei Xingjian, the chief general of the Dingxiang Road Army in Tang Dynasty, defeated the Turkic army in Heishan (now northwest of Baotou City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region), and captured the chief and served as the chief. Nishufu Khan was killed by his subordinates.

The rest of the Turkic rebels retreated to Langshan (northwest of Hangjinhou Banner, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region). Wenfu tribe welcomed the nephew of Jieli Khan from Xiazhou (the capital is located in Baichengzi, northeast of Jingbian County, Shaanxi Province) and crossed the Yellow River to the north and established him as Khan.

In 681 (the first year of Kaiyao), Fu Nian and Wen Fu joined forces to attack Yuanzhou (the capital is located in Guyuan County, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region), and Qingzhou (the capital is located in Qingyang County, Gansu Province).

In the autumn of that year, Fu Nian arrested Wen Fu and surrendered to Pei Xingjian under the circumstances of the Tang army's tent. Pei Xingjian promised to protect Fu Nian but after returning to the capital, Pei Yan was jealous of Pei Xingjian's great achievements and instigated Emperor Gaozong of Tang to kill Fu Nian. Pei Xingjian lamented that the court would kill the surrendered people and would not surrender again in the future. From then on, he became ill and kept his door closed.

Emperor Gaozong of Tang refused to tolerate those who surrendered and instead killed them, which laid the root of disaster for the rebellion of the upper Turkic figures of the Tang Dynasty.

Following the founding of the Later Turks, the biggest enemy for the Later Turks was the Tang Dynasty, which is the current Great Zhou Dynasty. The Khan of the previous generation was named Asunagudulu.

This is a ruthless man. This grandfather of Ashinagudulu was originally the chief of the division of the Ying tribe of the Yunzhong Governor of the Shanyu Protectorate of the Tang Dynasty. He inherited the position of Tutun. After Fu Nian's death, he led 17 people away, gradually gathered 700 people, and occupied Heisha City (now north of Hohhot City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region).

By recruiting Fu Nian to scatter the remaining troops, he increased his troops to 5,000, and looted a large number of sheep and horses in the nine surnames. As a result, his power gradually became stronger and he established himself as Jie Du Li Shi Khan. He appointed his younger brother Mo Chuan as the Kill (i.e., the official name), and Du Xifu as Ye Hu.

Later, after Gu Dulu proclaimed himself as Khan, he fought east and west, and frequently attacked. According to the Turkic article "Quteqin Stele", he successively attacked the northern part of the Tang Dynasty, with nine surnames Tiel, thirty surnames Tatars, Khitans, Xi and others, and went to the fortifications 47 times, including 20 battles, laying the foundation of the Later Turkic Khanate.

Now Gu Dulu is dead, and the one who ascended the throne was his son named Mochuo... Mochuo, like his elder brother, also hated the Tang Dynasty to the core. He reigned for fifteen years and launched wars twenty-five times. The biggest war was to repeatedly disturb the Tang Dynasty's borders and capture people and livestock.

This time, he personally fought against the Great Zhou, and besieged the Great Zhou together with the Tubo and Western Turks. Mochu's goal this time was very clear, which was to enter Luoyang and even divide the Great Zhou.

After the Western Turks took action, Ang Lee in Fanyang City has now packed up everything and prepared to leave Fanyang and go back to Luoyang directly, but just after Ang Lee left Fanyang,

Before the road reached one tenth, two light cavalry suddenly stopped Li An's convoy and then took out an imperial edict. Wu Zetian named Li An as General Tiance and replaced the emperor to personally fight. Now that the rebels in Shiwei have been eliminated, they need to rush to Lingzhou immediately to fight against the rear Turkic army.

"cousin...!"

After the imperial edict was read, Xue Chongxun looked at Ang Lee in surprise.

After receiving the imperial edict, Ang Lee's expression also became a little dark. However, Ang Lee's dark expression was not because he was going to Lingzhou. Ang Lee's dark expression was because of some reason why another post-Turkish suddenly came.

"You go back to Luoyang first...I want to go to Lingzhou."

"Cousin, I'll go with you..." Xue Chongxun was still quite loyal.

Ang Lee shook his head: "It's useless if you go. Go back and take good care of my grandmother. If I can kill Shi Wei, I will definitely be able to fight off the Hou Turks."

Just like that, the two brothers parted ways halfway, Ang Lee went to Lingzhou to supervise the battle, while Xue Chongxun returned to Luoyang. However, just after Ang went to Lingzhou, an fact shocked Ang Lee again, because Ang Lee learned at this time that it was not just one country invading the Great Zhou.

Even Tubo and Western Turks were also sending troops to invade the Great Zhou at the same time. This made Anbe feel pressured. This pressure came so much that even Ang Lee, a time traveler, became a little worried and scared.

After all, the Three Kingdoms invaded at the same time, with a force of 200,000. Fortunately, one Shiwei was killed at this time. If it was Shiwei, it would be a four-nation war.

A country was invaded by four countries at the same time. Just thinking about it makes me feel shocked. Ang Lee is also a human being, and he also feels scared, but it is different from others' fear. Once Ang Lee is scared, he will want to use his only to protect himself, so a dangerous idea was born.

....................................

"Where is the invasion of Tubo and Western Turkic?"

Ang Lee sat in the carriage and asked Xue Ding and Zhang Hu who were facing the side.

Zhang Hu replied: "Lengquan, Your Majesty has sent Wang Xiaojie to deal with it..."

"I'm still relieved to General Wang, but the Tubo soldiers pointed out and joined forces with the Western Turks. We need to fight quickly here...!"

"Your Highness... After this time, the Turkic Khan Mochu personally led 100,000 yuan to invade Lingzhou. We are under great pressure and may not be able to achieve a quick battle."

Ang Lee looked at Zhang Hu and sighed slightly. In fact, Ang Lee also knew that the latter Turks came in a fierce manner this time, but Ang Lee was still worried about Wang Xiaojie because you don’t know how powerful Tubo was in the Tang Dynasty.

Very early, in the eighth year of Zhenguan, Songtsen Gampou sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty to propose marriage. Emperor Taizong of Tang refused Songtsen Gampou's proposal almost without thinking. Songtsen Gampou was very angry and wrote a letter to Emperor Taizong of Tang: "If you do not agree to marry the princess to me, I will personally lead an army of 50,000 to capture the Tang Kingdom, kill you, and seize the princess."

For this reason, a war between the two sides really broke out on the border, ending in the failure of Tubo.

After Songtsen Gampo experienced the power of the Tang Dynasty, he took the initiative to send envoys to apologize and seek peace.

In fact, Emperor Taizong of Tang also underestimated Tubo. After fighting, he found that Tubo was powerful and had no choice but to get along with both sides. Emperor Taizong of Tang promised to marry Princess Wencheng, a daughter of the clan.

After marrying the kinship, Songtsen Gampo accepted the canonization of the Tang Dynasty government and sent his children to Chang'an to learn the culture of the Central Plains. After that, Tubo created the text, formulated laws, and learned from the official system of the Tang Dynasty, established bureaucracy, and the social economy developed rapidly.

You should know that Li Shimin's move was actually a stupid move. After Princess Wencheng entered Tibet, it brought a qualitative leap to Tubo's technology, which greatly improved Tubo's national strength and military strength.

Indeed, when Emperor Taizong of Tang was there, Tubo always crawled at the foot of the Tang Dynasty. However, as soon as Emperor Taizong of Tang died, Songtsen Gampo also died early, and Tubo's fangs were exposed.

After Songtsen Gampo's death, his grandson Mang Songmangzan succeeded to the throne. With the assistance of the great prime minister Lu Dongzan, the political organization of the Tubo Kingdom was further improved, and the field boundaries were demarcated, and the reforms were implemented, and the national strength continued to increase. However, as soon as Tubo became strong, it began to show its power.

In 663 AD, Tubo defeated his neighbor Tuyuhun, and then fought with the Tang Dynasty, attacked the Western Regions in the north, competed with the Tang Dynasty for the four towns of Anxi, attacked Bashu in the east, and occupied the twelve Tang Dynasty border prefectures where the Qiang people lived.

In the Battle of Dafeichuan (now southwest of Qinghai Republic) in 670 AD, Tubo defeated the Tang army.

In 676 AD, Mangsong Mangzan died of illness on his way to Nanzhao. After his son Du Songmang Bujie ascended the throne, he continued to adopt an expansion policy, sent troops to attack the Xier River, and surrendered various tribes, expanding the area under Tubo to 5.1 million square kilometers, and the population within the territory reached 9.6 million.

At this time, in fact, Tubo's military strength had even surpassed the Tang Dynasty.

Although the Tang Dynasty and Tubo each had their own victory or defeat in the competition for more than a hundred years, Tubo in general embezzled a large area of ​​territory of the Tang Dynasty.

According to the "Zizhi Tongjian", by the mid-Tang Dynasty, Tubo "had all occupied Yangtong, Dangxiang and the Qiang areas, connected to Liang, Song, Mao and other prefectures in the east, Tianzhu in the south, Kucha in the west, Shule and other four towns, and arrived in the north, and went to the Turks in the north, and there were thousands of miles of land. No one compared the prosperity of Hu and the prosperity of Hu."

Not only were the Hexi and Longyou prefectures, which were originally under the Tang Dynasty, all were incorporated into the Tubo Empire, but the Nanzhao Kingdom, which was originally enthroned by the Tang Dynasty, were also included in the Tubo sphere of influence.

Moreover, Tubo had not yet entered its heyday at this time, and it was not until 755 AD that Chide Zudan was killed by a treacherous minister and Chisong Dezan succeeded to the throne.

Under his leadership, the Tubo Dynasty entered its heyday and expanded its military force, occupying all the prefectures of Hexi, Datang, to the north, attacking Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, to the east, to the west, to the Dashi (now Iran), and to the south, to the Tianzhu (now India).

Chisong Dezan's great talent was not only comparable to his ancestor Songtsen Gampo, but even compared with Taizong and Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, it was not inferior to the prosperous times of Tubo during this period. The prosperous times of the Tang Dynasty were no less than the "Zhenguan Governance" and "Kaiyuan Prosperity".

This is the real reason why Ang Lee is worried. If Wang Xiaojie cannot keep it this time, he may rewrite a history. After all, history has changed. Ang Lee is very worried that the joint efforts between Tubo and the Western Turks will directly cause a major historical change.

Ang Lee must not let this change happen, so after looking at Zhang Hu and Xue Ding, Ang Lee said slightly: "Uncle Hu... Xue Xue, from now on, you will help me collect sulfur, charcoal, saltpeter along the way... I will end the Turks as soon as possible, and then go to Lengquan to defeat Tubo. I will never let Tubo rise."

"No..." Zhang Hu and Xue Ding bowed quickly.

Sulfur, charcoal, saltpeter... I think even if I don't need to say it, everyone knows what Ang Lee wanted to make. Yes, it's black gunpowder. According to historical records, black gunpowder officially appeared in the late Tang Dynasty (late 9th century).

But I can tell you clearly that the black gunpowder that appeared at that time was not considered gunpowder at all.

Because gunpowder was originally used not in military terms, but in acrobatics in the circus of the Song Dynasty, as well as fireworks acrobatics in puppet shows - "Pharm-haired Puppets" and "Holding Guilds", "Hard Ghosts", "Music Art Dramas" and other acrobatic programs in the Song Dynasty, all use the newly emerging gunpowder products "fire wars" and "spout fire" to create a mysterious atmosphere.

The Song people also performed magic tricks with gunpowder, such as spraying fireworks, clouds and mist to escape people, transform objects, etc., to achieve magical and confusing effects! Gunpowder was introduced into medicine and became a drug for treating sores and ringworms, as well as killing insects, and banning dampness and plagues.

Even in order to resist the barbaric attacks of Liao, Xixia and Jin, the Northern Song Dynasty attached great importance to the test and production of gunpowder and gunpowder weapons... A gunpowder workshop was established in the capital Bianliang, which was an official handicraft workshop specializing in the manufacturing of gunpowder and firearms (that is, "Guangbei City Siege"). Its "sunrise crossbows, gunpowder arrows, 10,000 bows, gunpowder arrows, 3,000 terrestrial cannons (with gunpowder bags with barbed iron sheets) and 20,000 leather cannons."

Those so-called gunpowder weapons are not worth mentioning at all.

What kind of muskets were invented in the Southern Song Dynasty... These so-called inventions have not used black gunpowder correctly. In fact, the biggest development of black gunpowder is in modern times. After hundreds of years of experiments and practices, people have found that the combination ratio of black gunpowder is about 10% sulfur, charcoal accounts for about 15%, and saltpeter accounts for about 75%.

It can also exert the greatest power of black gunpowder. At this time, it is the peak of black gunpowder.

Ang Lee didn't want to release the black gunpowder too early. After all, it was like Pandora's box. Ang Lee didn't know what would change when the black gunpowder was released too early, but now Ang Lee had no choice but to kill him.

But this black gunpowder is really evil.
