The emperor did not study the military movements of the Shanyu Protectorate's Mansion, naturally, had a reason. The reason why Yang Xuanji, the commander of the Shanyu Protectorate's Mansion, led his troops out of the Yunzhong Defense Zone and entered Youzhou was due to the emperor's instruction.

Since the Shendu Revolution, the imperial court's internal affairs have been prospering and abolished, and the same is true for foreign affairs. However, because the Shaanxi Daxingtai acted too much in military foreign maps, the imperial court's adjustments in border affairs have been relatively less conspicuous.

Previously, Li Zhaode presided over the government affairs and arranged heavy troops in border states such as the southern desert. Although there was no actual war. However, just maintaining such a garrison scale has brought great pressure to the Hebei prefectures. After all, the strong army is external, and the poor resources are consumed internally, and the scholars and people in the prefectures are greatly affected.

Therefore, when Li Zhaode was dismissed from the prime minister, the adjustment of border affairs was also a question that the court discussed over the years. For a period of time, Di Renjie's theory of Xiu Ge health became the mainstream of the court. However, the emperor and some ministers felt that such a policy was a bit too much. Especially when he was practicing martial arts and practicing diligently, completely abandoning military statements was equivalent to giving up the initiative of the future situation to the Shaanxi Road Daxingtai.

In the subsequent series of disputes, Di Renjie was gradually marginalized. Later, the imperial court selected operators to be assigned to various prefectures, and the main direction was the Hebei prefectures. In addition to herdsmen's governance, these external governors also had a mission, which was to recruit brave men and train troops to serve as the foundation for the court's military preparation in Hebei.

Although the core of this policy is still focused on the east-west confrontation with the Shaanxi Dao Daxingtai, it is also combined with the current border trouble situation in the court. The Turkic brothers, the restoration of the country, became the biggest border trouble problem in the north. During the Wu Anniversary, Xue Huaiyi fought against the Turks several times, not only was he tired of the people and suffered money, but the results were limited.

With the destruction of the order of the northern throne and the development and growth of the Turkic power to restore the country, the imperial court has now used troops in the south of the desert, and there is no longer the initiative since the Yonghui. It is difficult for the army to go on a war once and for all.

Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the people's sentiments and hearts of the people in Hebei have been a heart-wrenching problem for all dynasties. As early as the Wude period, Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan even planned to move the people in Hebei east of the Taihang Mountains and give up their long-term management of this place. Of course, this kind of deprivation was just a temporary solution. As the general trend of the Tang Dynasty's unification of the world became more and more obvious, this kind of discussion will naturally not be mentioned.

But even during the Zhenguan period, which was famous for its enlightenment, he was very alert to Hebei people. It was no secret that Taizong had always looked down on Shandong people. Including Emperor Gaozong, although he used some of the power of the Shandong clans to get rid of Guanlong, he still ordered the seven surnames and ten families not to marry themselves, and allowed his favorite minister Li Jingxuan and others to join the clan to get rid of their family.

Although Emperor Li Dan was at the extreme of the dynasty, the government was always in chaos, so that the Shendu court was so big that it was unreasonable. The military and political affairs were not as flexible and efficient as the Shaanxi Daxingtai.

Under the pressure from Xingtai, the emperor ordered all prefectures in Hebei to set up groups to achieve the effect of hiding the elite in prefectures and counties. However, he was vigilant against the scholars and people in Hebei. This ancestral legal system that has been dared to cross the business since the founding of the business was not arbitrarily. In addition, many Guanlong periods were filled with the power of the court, so he also used and guarded against the scholars and people in Hebei.

This is reflected in actual operations, which is to take Youzhou as the general of the regiment training in Hebei, especially the northern prefectures and counties, and to take the eldest son of the state and Duke of Shen Dou Xiaochen as the governor of Youzhou and lead military affairs.

However, Hebei has its own order for many years to operate. If this change is rashly involved in coordination in all aspects, the most core point of this is the issue of the ownership of the Dongyi Protectorate.

During the reign of Emperor Gaozong, the eastern expedition to Goguryeo, in addition to completely defeating Goguryeo, a fierce enemy in the northeast, it also carried out a relatively systematic arrangement of the northeastern Yi tribes and set up many banish prefectures. The most important of these was the Dongyi Protectorate.

Before Dou Xiaochen was appointed outside the office, Dongyi Protector was the governor of Yingzhou. But now the court assigned this official position to the governor of Youzhou, which naturally caused a series of personnel disputes.

After Dou Xiaochen entered the state, he submitted a report to the court's Yingzhou Governor Zhao Wenhui, who was arrogant and difficult to control, and did not obey the control, and even did not allow Dongyi Hu to come to Youzhou to pay homage to the new chief.

Emperor Li Dan was also very upset about this. On the one hand, since Dou Xiaochen has entered the state and has some personnel frictions, it is all within his duties. If there are any disputes, he will report to the court at any time. What is the use of the court for you?

On the other hand, the friction between Youzhou and Yingzhou has made it difficult for Youzhou to be the military and political center in the northern Hebei Road to establish its position, which directly affected the court's leadership over the entire Hebei Road.

Zhao Wenhui, the governor of Yingzhou, was also an old minister of the border affairs of a long time. Once the replacing rashly, the court did not have a suitable candidate. Moreover, even if Zhao Wenhui was removed, according to Dou Xiaochen's style of reporting to the court when he encountered problems, he might not be able to completely intimidate the Donghu chiefs in a short time.

Therefore, after some trade-offs, the emperor decided to transfer the Shanyu Protectorate Army to Youzhou to strengthen the power of Dou Xiaochen. At the same time, he also promoted the court's determination to reorganize the order in this border, and to shock the internal and external forces with a strong military force.

When making this decision, Li Dan did not face the factor of Turkish Mochu. One reason was that Mochu was defeated by Hequ, and there should be no possibility of a comeback in the short term. Two, Youzhou was originally an important town to control the northern border affairs to operate. After the army of the Shanyu Protectorate Office entered the country, the process could be accelerated.

The emperor even planned that if the affairs of Youzhou were going well, they could send troops from Youzhou next year to launch a sweep of the Turkic forces in southern Mo. At that time, the imperial court would also send troops from Hedongdao to encircle and attack from both the south and the east. Even if the Turks were not completely wiped out, they could completely sweep the remaining forces of the Turks out of southern Mo.

Once the war progresses smoothly, the imperial army can take over the defense of Hequ and blockade the Xingtai from the north of Guannei Road, thus changing the current situation where the imperial court has always lagged behind the Xingtai in Shaanxi in terms of military affairs.

However, the plan had just begun, and such a big change suddenly happened. Before Youzhou could figure out a clue, the northern part of Hedong Road was first penetrated by Mochu, who made a comeback.

So Li Dan subconsciously felt that this matter was unforgivable to the blame for the Daotai in Shaanxi. In the old year of the battle of Hequ, it either falsely reported military achievements or exaggerated the facts, or deliberately indulged Mochu to escape to the south of the desert and raise the enemy to respect himself!

But regardless of whether these speculations were established or not, the direct reason for the Turkic coming south was the emptiness of the protection of the Shanyu Protectorate. If this matter is pursued, the emperor's decision-maker will be to blame first.

But even if you don’t mention it deliberately, it’s just a cover-up. Such a large-scale and large-scale military mobilization naturally cannot be determined by just two or three people. The decision-making and discussion at that time may have been included in the "Current Political Records" of the Zhengshi Hall.

No matter how shameless the emperor was, he could not admit that he was transferring the troops of the Shanyu Protectorate's Office to support his father-in-law, thus providing Mochu with the opportunity to raise troops to the south.

Regarding how to counterattack the Turks, this invasion is not very difficult, but the key is to be fast. The Turks' invasion this time was to attack the Shanyu Protectorate in Yunzhou first and obtain armored horses and rods from that territory. They also accidentally captured the inspector Sun Yangao, who was stationed in the city. Under the leadership of Sun Yangao, bypassed several cities in Shuozhou and entered Lanzhou for a sweep.

However, when he was attacking Xinzhou Prefecture City, Xinzhou Sima Zhang Jiujie urgently recruited Juzhou Realm and joined the Hu tribe city to attack the Turkic thieves near Dingxiang City, so that the city of the city was not lost.

From this we can see that the Turkic invaders this time were not very powerful. They were around the city and were repelled by the state army. Therefore, the only way now is to send troops as soon as possible to reduce the activity space of the Turkic bandit army and prevent the scope of the bandit army from further expanding, especially the Turkic bandit army from entering Bingzhou.

Although Bingzhou has empty defense, it is the important place on the surface of Hedongdao. Money and food are gathering. Once it is swept by the Turkic invaders, the thief will inevitably grow even more rampantly.

So soon a minister in the hall suggested that the court should choose a general to send troops to rescue Bingzhou immediately. As long as Bingzhou is not lost, the invasion will be a very bad disaster. Moreover, Shendu is not without troops available at the moment. Although the Southern Ya is a little chaotic, tens of thousands of troops in the Northern Ya can directly cross Hebei and fight against the Turks.

But as soon as this suggestion was put forward, it was objected.

"The army of ten thousand cavalry in the Northern Yaya has been newly formed, and it is not suitable for the battle formation. Moreover, the armor and equipment are not available. The hard-working army is startled and hastily came out to meet. It may be pleasant to win. However, the Turkic thieves have been roaring over the years to the fierce crowds in the desert. Once the battle is slightly contrary to the will of others, there is a greater repercussion, especially the thief..."

In the palace, Duke Jiang Xi of Zhuang raised his hand and said, not agreeing that the new army in the North Ya was easily dispatched.

Emperor Li Dan had the idea of ​​ordering the new army of Beiya to attack. When Duke Hui said this, he was shocked. This year, he gathered tens of thousands of soldiers in the Daotai in Shaanxi, which has already made the people of Shendu suspicious. The new army of Beiya is the only force that shocked the inside and outside.

Once Wan Qi is transferred from Duji under such circumstances, no matter what the outcome of this battle is, at least the emperor's control over the love between the court will be destroyed again.

"What Duke of the King of Hui is actually saying is that ten thousand cavalry have been made and cannot be moved lightly. Is there no one in the country who is calm when he encounters chaos?"

When he talked about this, the emperor's tone was already a little unhappy. When the ministers heard this, they were all in awe and did not dare to discuss it in depth.

"This year, Chen Zuo, Beijing, and several prefectures in Heshuo were also equipped with a defense and garrison. Kuang Mochuo was shocked by the Western Army's troops. If the troops were sent from Shaanxi Road..."

After a moment of silence, someone spoke again.

However, before he could finish this sentence, Wang Xiaojie had already paused his feet and snorted coldly: "All the civil and military people in the court are all boasting about talents and weapons? In any case of danger in the country, they are all His Highness Yong. If this continues, can our court officials avoid the ridicule of stealing their wealth?"

When Li Dan heard someone suggesting to send troops to Taiwan, he frowned. The court finally squeezed the power of King Yong west of Tongguan. If the Western Army is allowed to travel, then will Hedong Road still be owned by the court next year?

Hearing Wang Xiaojie's words, the emperor's brows stretched a little, and he realized that this guy had said the best since he returned to the capital.

"The reason why the imperial court has a permanent military establishment is that it will fight in the face of danger. Is it limited to the old and new? Once the thief's power is decayed again, even if the child is in a state of trouble, it will inevitably be a disaster for war. Thousands of cavalry have been in trouble in the north gate recently, and the city has been heard. The fish and turtles at the foot of the Beim Mountain are still uneasy in the water, and crows and birds dare not lie on the branches. How can there be a reason for fear of fighting in the face of this war? I ask the Dian Army to attack, and the invading thieves will be wiped out in the mountains and rivers!"

Seeing that the emperor showed praise for him, Wang Xiaojie was even more encouraged and held his fists again and asked for his orders.

Li Dan's face suddenly turned dark after hearing this, and his eyes left Wang Xiaojie and he never looked at him again.

The new army in Beimeng should not be easily out of the way, and the Western army in Taiwan should not be indulged, but the Turkic invaders must always fight. After some discussion, a preliminary compromise was formed in the court. Li Huaiyuan, the assistant minister of the Huangmen, came out as the chief general of the marching army of Shuofang Road, and recruited guards and slaves from the various prefectures of the capital and went north to cross the river today, and sent troops from Hedong Road to encircle and kill the Turkic bandit army.

The prime minister attacked the Turks for the commander, showing the court's importance to this war. But if it were only this, it would not be enough to demonstrate the majesty of the court.

After all, after Mochuo was defeated by Hequ, he did not dare to violate the Xingtai defense zone this time, but instead launched an offensive from Mo Nanyun. This tactical choice undoubtedly showed that the thief chief was afraid of Xingtai and underestimated the court's inner attitude, and he had to fight hard.

Therefore, in addition to Li Huaiyuan's army, the emperor also appointed the governor of Youzhou as the chief general of the Shanyu Road military commander, and was appointed as the ambassador of the 15 prefectures of Hebei. The governors of Hebei Provinces trained martial arts and set out to fight against the south of the Hu city, plowed the courtyard and swept the caves. He wanted to use this battle to defeat the Turks without a foothold in the south of the Mo!

Once a certain plan was formed and the order was conveyed, the entire Shendu court mobilized. Although the new army of Wanqi could not be easily deployed, the capital capital had certain military power. There were almost no soldiers to go out in the southern yamen, and the Yulin army on both sides gathered into 5,000 brigades, as frontmen, they would pass by Hebei today.

At the same time, the order to recruit Jianyong and official slaves of the capital was quickly implemented, and soon the news of the Turkic invasion spread throughout the entire Shendu City.

"The Turks are coming to invade again? Didn't they have been annihilated in Hequ by King Yong earlier?"

Due to the implementation of various orders and the implementation of personnel and horse dispatch, the customs of the entire Shendu City became tense. Although the people in the capital were quite disturbed since the Shendu Revolution, they only heard that the news of Shaanxi Dao was frequent. After a few years, the war was quite far away for them.

"In the battle of Hequ, only the Turkic king's tent were killed. This time the attack was the thieves in the south.

Someone asked questions, and those who know themselves would never get tired of explanations.

"What's the difference between Nanya and the king's tent? Are they all thieves?"

"The Turkic king's tent is under the control of the Anbei Protectorate, while Nanya is under the rule of the Chanyu Protectorate. His Highness Yong is only the Anbei Protectorate, not the Chanyu Protectorate."

"Then why not let Your Highness Yong take the Grand Protector of the Shanyu? Your Highness Yong has outstanding achievements and is well-known to everyone. Why should you work hard for this matter? Shaanxi has its own strong armor, so why should the court disturb the recruitment again?"

Relevant discussions filled the music, and in addition to this noise, there were many personnel adjustments within the court. In the political affairs hall, after Prime Minister Li Huaiyuan went to the expedition, two more members were appointed as prime ministers, namely Sun Yuanheng, the Minister of War and former Prime Minister Zhang Xi, who was expelled in his early years.
