Chang''an City, Tai Chi hall.
The king of Tang looked at his Highness''s eldest sun Wuji and said.
"Where has Tang Hao marched now?"
Although it is still a day in the past to deal with some trivial matters in the morning court, for the Minister of civil and military affairs, his mind is no longer above the court hall.
Today, the haze of the war in the north still haunts everyone''s heart.
Especially two days ago, Xiangcheng was in danger, and the army far away in Deyang was not expected to deploy troops for support.
This war.
It''s about the security of Datang border.
It''s more about Datang''s luck!
Sun Wuji replied.
"Tell your majesty that Tang Xianzi has left Datong and must have arrived in Xiangcheng now."
There was silence in the hall.
One day later, Tang Hao finally arrived at Xiangcheng.
The three-day trip has been compressed for more than two days. It''s amazing to have this amazing speed.
However, after Xiangcheng sent back an urgent report to guard against the night attack by the Turks, there was no news again.
If the first battle of Xiangcheng is broken, it will undoubtedly shake the court.
It is unknown whether Tang Hao is waiting for the Turks to occupy Xiangcheng, the locked gate, or the two sides who are fighting fiercely.
After all, it''s a good thing to arrive so quickly.
At this moment, all the ministers prayed silently in their hearts that Xiangcheng could hold it, at least when Tang Hao arrived.
The king of Tang looked gloomy and asked.
"Dear Aiqing, what do you think is Tang Hao''s chance of winning the battle of Xiangcheng?"
Although this is a sentence to ask the ministers, it is actually the king of Tang asking himself.
In the heart of the king of Tang Dynasty, it is uncertain whether Xiangcheng is still in the hands of Tang guards.
The war is coming, and the front army is just trying to test one or two.
However, Jieli Khan''s attack on Xiangcheng was not so simple as a test. He must have made perfect preparations.
As for why the Turkic soldiers suddenly stopped attacking Xiangcheng, although I don''t know the reason, the king of Tang expected that the Turks would not let Xiangcheng go.
Changsun Wuji slowly stood out, frowning and thinking for a moment.
"I have a saying. I don''t know whether to say it or not."
The king of Tang looked at the dignified eldest sun Wuji and said slowly.
"Speak."
Sun Wuji bowed slowly, arranged his words slightly and said.
"It has been two days since the urgent report came from Xiangcheng. Until now, no urgent report came from Xiangcheng."
At this point, sun Wuji looked up slightly, looked at King Tang, and then said in a deep voice.
"Now that tangxianzi has arrived in Xiangcheng, it''s hard not to ensure that the city''s soldiers have changed."
These words are very implicit.
Changed the guard.
That means, in the eyes of changsun Wuji, I''m afraid Xiangcheng has been broken.
Hearing the speech, King Tang''s face was completely gloomy. He held the handrail of the Dragon seat tightly, and two chilling lights shot out of his eyes.
Although he was extremely angry, the king of Tang also understood.
Changsun Wuji said something that people wanted to say but didn''t dare to say!
And the probability of this happening is great!
Even if Tang Hao was extremely brave, it would be futile if he didn''t arrive before the Turks broke the city.
Although the outside of the hall was sunny, the inside of the hall was shrouded in dark clouds, and an invisible threat shrouded the whole hall, as if the air became very viscous in an instant, and the ministers only felt that breathing seemed to become particularly difficult.
The hall was silent.
Even Gao Shilian, who had always been highly respected, looked dignified and sat there silent.
Sitting on the Dragon chair, the king of Tang suppressed his anger and said slowly.
"Do you think Tang Hao can still capture Xiangcheng this time?"
"This..."
Changsun Wuji hesitated and didn''t know how to answer the question.
"Speak!"
The king of Tang gave an order.
Sun Wuji bowed again, swallowed his saliva and said carefully.
"According to the scouts, there are 8000 elite soldiers stationed in Baidao city in front of Xiangcheng. It can be seen that Jieli Khan attaches great importance to the protection of the western line this time."
"If the Turks have entered Xiangcheng, even if the losses are heavy, they will quickly transfer the forces of Baidao to support them."
"Xiangcheng will be a hard bone to chew."
The language is very cautious and vague.
The reason why he is so vague is that he doesn''t want to touch the mildew of the king of Tang.
After all, the defeat in the first battle has a great impact on the overall momentum of the Datang army, which has not yet started a full-scale war.
And that Xiangcheng is the gate between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks, a place that strategists must contend for.
The loss of such a city undoubtedly exposed Datang to Turkic minions.
After listening to the words of the eldest sun Wuji, the king of Tang turned his head slowly, looked at Gao Shilian and said.
"Duke Shen, what do you think?"
Hearing the question of the king of Tang Dynasty, Gao Shilian met his scalp, came to the hall, meditated for a moment, hugged his fist and said.
"What Duke Zhao said really makes sense. Tang Hao had raided Xiangcheng once before."
"After the Turks enter the city, they must be heavily guarded. It will be difficult to attack again."
"But Tang Hao, after all, has previous raiding experience and must find a way to crack it."
Gao Shilian didn''t want to touch the bad luck of the king of Tang. He didn''t say it clearly, but the meaning was clear.
After that, Gao Shilian stepped back slowly.
Although the king of the Tang Dynasty did not vent his anger, the officials in the hall had long been silent and dared not take a breath.
There was still silence above the hall.
Nervousness and uneasiness linger in everyone''s mind, as if there was a huge stone in his heart.
Suddenly.
Outside the hall, a loud and long voice sounded.
"Datong urgent report!"
