Chapter 322： :who is it? let them in

Li Xiaogong came to Li Chengfeng's ear, and whispered: "Eighth prince, is this the emperor's intention?"

"Yes, just take it as what the emperor meant!" Li Chengfeng didn't admit it, nor denied it.

Only then did Li Xiaogong laugh out loud, and said: "Haha, then it's easy to handle! Since the Turkic thieves have been hungry for three days, then General Ben will lead the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty to attack and see who they are. Dare to come out and fight?"

"In addition, I will also inform the soldiers in Nancheng to attack Tubo's city! As a result, they will be short of food in the city, and they will definitely search for food and grass to buy!"

"Yes, when the time comes, we will sell it for a lot of money. After it is sold out, I will distribute 10,000 gold to the soldiers in the frontier fortress, selling wine and meat!"

"Okay, then, when will the Eighth Prince leave?"

"It's better to hit the sun than choose the day. Let's set off today and attack the Turkic city!"

"Okay, the veteran, I'm going to organize the troops now!"

After all, Li Xiaogong went to organize the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty to attack the Turkic city, and Li Chengfeng himself took his 3000 Xuanjia army and rushed to the battlefield.

Li Xiaogong and Li Chengfeng are relatively close, and they have a good impression of Li Chengfeng, so Li Xiaogong believes in Li Chengfeng's words, and he thinks that Li Chengfeng will not lie to him.

Let me add a word, the reading app I am using recently, [Change Source Artifact APP] has many sources of books, complete books, and fast updates!

As time passed, Li Chengfeng and Li Xiaogong, leading tens of thousands of Tang soldiers, came to the gate of the Turkic border city and began to call for battle.

In the Turkic border city, three cities are connected together, and each city has tens of thousands of people and soldiers.

And the commander-in-chief of their border town is called Ashina Dushan.

…

At this moment, Ashina Dushan was in the border town, and roared furiously.

"Waste, you are all a bunch of waste? There is no food in the army, is it child's play? What about the food? What about the food that our Turkic warriors eat?"

Ashina Dushan roared loudly.

One of the soldiers kneeling on the ground tremblingly said: "Report to the general, the food and grass in our army have all been eaten!"

"Finish? After eating, go to the city to collect grain. Within the three cities, there are several million catties of grain, and you can't even collect a hundred catties of grain? Waste, a bunch of waste!"

Suddenly, a bearded man spoke with difficulty, and said, "Report to General Dushan, the food in the city has been eaten up by people, and there is no food left!"

"Impossible!" Ashina Dushan yelled suddenly, and said: "Three months ago, Lord Ji Li Khan ordered someone to send nearly 5 million catties of grain, so that our soldiers in the three border cities can spend this time. In the year of the next natural disaster, there are still at least 2 million catties of grain. What about the grain? Have all the grain been eaten by dogs?"

Ashina Dushan's face was almost red with anger.

If the soldiers can't even eat enough, how can they go to the battlefield to fight and attack Suzhou?

As we all know, Suzhou is an iron gate of Datang. As long as this iron gate is opened and Suzhou is captured, then Datang will have a gap, and it will be easier for them to attack other cities in the future.

But how could it be all right, the food in the three cities has been eaten up?

No, there is fraud, there must be fraud.

Ashina Dushan narrowed his eyes slightly, and said: "General Ashina Taifeng, tell me honestly, what happened in our Turkic city in the past few days? Tell me truthfully, and don't lie to me, otherwise , this general will report to Sir Jili Khan, when the time comes, your heads will fall to the ground, and I will not be able to protect you!"

Speaking of this, Taifeng, Taishan and the others all trembled.

Ashina Taifeng hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, and said: "Reporting to General Dushan, yes, it is because of the 'dead masters' of Suzhou City in the Tang Dynasty. It is they who spent a lot of money to buy all the food and grass of the people in the city. It's over! They spent two or three times the amount of grain and grass in the past to buy it, and the people in the city couldn't stand the temptation for a while, so they sold all the grain in their hands at a high price!"

"The Daoist? The Daoist of Tang Suzhou? Who is it? Let them in?"

Ashina Dushan tightly clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and said these words.

Ashina Taishan said with fear on his face, "Yes, they are the guards at the border gate!"

"Bastard, how can they amplify the downfall of Tang Suzhou and enter our Turkic territory?"

"Reporting to the general, it's because they gave a lot of tolls to the soldiers at the pass! In the past, when our Turks and the Tang Dynasty hadn't turned against each other, there would be bad guys coming in and out on both sides, so there were some relationships between them, and they came and went. He has become an old acquaintance! But what I didn’t expect is that this time Datang seems to be determined to buy all the food in our border city!"

After Taifeng finished speaking, Taishan continued: "Yes, General Dushan, in fact, we are not too bad after this calculation! Although the food and grass in our city are gone, we have earned more than a dozen Wan Jin’s money, we can dedicate this money to Lord Jili Khan, he will be very happy!”

Ashina Dushan was silent.

He frowned tightly and thought about it, and soon, he slapped Ashina Taifeng heavily, and said: "You can treat me as a fool, but do you think that the soldiers of Datang are also fools?"

"Why would they spend a lot of money to buy food and grass in our city? Isn't it because they have plans for our Turkic border town?"

Ashina Dushan was a smart man. He felt that there must be a conspiracy behind the downtrodden of Suzhou in the Tang Dynasty who suddenly bought up all the food in the three border towns of Turkic.

Moreover, the person who can come up with this method is definitely a peerless genius.

Otherwise, during the droughts over the years, I have never seen the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty playing tricks?

Unexpectedly, this time, the shady trick of buying grain was actually used by people from Datang?

Bah, not at all aboveboard.

"What should I do now? Alas..." Ashina Dushan kept sighing.

Ashina Taifeng said: "It doesn't matter, general, we have already sent people to the central city to inform Master Ji Li Khan to bring food and grass. I believe that within three days, our Turkic warriors will be able to eat food and mutton!" In these three days, as long as we don’t fight, it’s fine, and it’s not too late to attack Datang Suzhou after we rest for a while and recharge our troops!”

"Well, now, I can only do this! I hope Lord Jili Khan can see that we have earned hundreds of thousands of dollars, and forgive us once!"

Ashina Dushan sighed heavily.

Although, they have now sealed off the gates of the border town, but it is too late.

The Daoist of Datang had already transported all the purchased grain back to Suzhou.
