In historical records, we often see the Central Plains peoples fighting against the northern grassland peoples, and the mighty national wars are always interspersed at the key nodes of each dynasty.

The once powerful Han Dynasty can finally show its blood through war and establish a great dynasty, while those countries that are slightly less powerful, such as the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms and the Song Dynasty, under the powerful blow, can only choose to subjugate their country. Extinction.

However, the Tang Dynasty recorded in the history books seems to be very different. It did not go through arduous struggles, nor did it make bloody sacrifices, but defeated the opponent easily.

Is it because the Turks are too weak?

Obviously not!

You must know that in the historical records, the strength of the Turkic Empire was very powerful. As early as the period of the Five Hus and Sixteen Kingdoms, the Turkic Empire had repeatedly intervened in the Central Plains regime and destroyed several powerful countries. The prosperity of Beidi is something that has never been seen before. Looking up to the Yinshan Mountains, it has the ambition to lighten the mid-summer period.” The Turkic Empire in the late Sui and early Tang Dynasties was no weaker than the Xiongnu before the Han, and even stronger!

For Datang to destroy the East Turks, the history books have always attributed to Li Er's personal heroism and the military's strength of the Datang, so he easily won the East Turks. Moreover, Li Jing, the chief hero of this battle, the Tang military wizard, was deified, saying that he only had three thousand to destroy the Eastern Turks.

It is still possible to say that Li Jing's three thousand annihilation of the Eastern Turks may not come from Li Jing's military genius, nor from the military strength of the Tang Dynasty. Just imagine, for this unprecedented war, there are not too many records in the history books, nor any large-scale battles between the two sides. The Eastern Turks were more like an easy move and surrendered without a fight. This phenomenon is very abnormal.

Compared to the time when Emperor Wu of the Han attacked the Xiongnu, he spent a lot of manpower, material and financial resources, and almost hollowed out the country, and the Turks were most likely stronger than the Xiongnu. No matter how powerful the Tang Dynasty was, it was impossible to defeat the Turks who dominated the grasslands so quickly.

But why was the country destroyed by the slightly weaker Tang Dynasty? In addition to the outstanding military command ability of Tang Jun's coach Li Jing, more importantly, Datang has been "blessed by God"!

The four words "God bless" sound very mysterious, but it really exists. First of all, with the help of Changsun Sheng, the Sui Dynasty of that year broke the Turks into two divided parts—— East Turk and West Turk. Although the strength of the Turkic Empire is still there, its internal classification factors have formed and are difficult to resolve. In this context, although the Tang Empire was beaten by the Turkic Empire in the early days of the founding of the country, the Turkic Empire did not achieve real unity at that time.

In addition, when the Tang Empire was preparing to go to war with the Turks in history, the Turks were suddenly hit by ice and snow disasters for two consecutive years. According to historical records, in the first year of Zhenguan, "the country snowed heavily, the ground was several feet flat, the sheep and horses died, and the people were starved." In the second year of Zhenguan, "Jieli Middle School, frost in midsummer", how serious is this catastrophe? In fact, this was not a disaster confined to the Mongolian grasslands, but a major disaster in the entire northern hemisphere, and the Tang Dynasty was also affected.

In the second year of Zhenguan, in the Yellow River Basin of China, especially in Hebei, there was also a snow disaster, and the disaster was very serious.

The temperature in the northern hemisphere dropped suddenly, and the severe snowstorm and frost disaster caused a large number of livestock in the East Turks to freeze to death, causing an unprecedented famine. In order to maintain his military strength, Jieli Khan had to forcibly collect military supplies from the grasslands, but this move caused the domestic Turks. The resistance of most tribes, after all, the interior of the Turks is no longer monolithic!

So it was against this background that Li Er launched a war against the Turks, and the Turkic Empire had long since lost the indomitable fighting power of the year, so this mighty national war was fought so quickly and peacefully. easy.

After the demise of the Eastern Turks, Emperor Taizong of Tang issued an edict: "Since last year until now, the money has been reduced one after another, no need to defend Huo's generals, no waiting for Jia Chao's strategy, Shanyu Jishou, arms crossed Gao Street, famous kings face tied, Return to the barbarian mansion."

From this edict, we can also see that after the Tang Dynasty dispatched troops, there was almost no decent resistance, and many Turkic tribes surrendered one after another in order to survive. Therefore, Li Er sighed that there was no need for famous laborers and no strategy at all, and the Eastern Turks perished.

But now Li Er plans to launch a national war with the Turks a full year ahead of schedule, and the number of winners and losses is difficult to determine, because the Turks at this time are still very powerful, at least what Jie Li said in the grasslands. Still no one dared not obey! Therefore, Li Zexuan is firmly opposed to the issue of sending troops to the Turks after three months!

"Your Majesty, I think it is very inappropriate to attack the Turks at this time!"

In the Tai Chi Hall, Li Zexuan bowed his hands solemnly after struggling in his heart.

As soon as the voice fell, the ministers were in an uproar!

The civil and military people of the Manchu Dynasty knew that Li Zexuan was a "militant". He thought that the prime minister of the Japanese dynasty had come to Tang Dynasty to ask for relatives, but Li Zexuan immediately sent him back and threatened to fight. In the Tang Dynasty, Li Zexuan not only guarded everywhere, but also targeted everywhere, clearly showing a posture that he was not afraid of causing trouble!

When such a tough "militant" heard the news that the Tang Dynasty was about to attack the Turks, the first reaction was not in favor of it, but against it? All the ministers wondered if the sun came out from the west today!

Li Er, who was sitting at the top, frowned when he heard this, and asked in a deep voice, "What's wrong? Jie Li ignored Tang and I,

How dare I send troops and horses to Yanmen Pass, as the lord of the Tang Dynasty, why can't I retaliate? "

Anyone who is familiar with Li Er knows that Li Er is a little angry at this time! Because Li Zexuan has always been a junior that Li Er values ​​very much, but today Li Zexuan's remarks on the war between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks made Li Er very disappointed! Thinking that the talents he has carefully cultivated are a timid rat, how can Li Er not be angry? How not to be sad?

"Your Majesty! Since the former Sui Dynasty, after the Turks were divided into East and West Turks, there has been chaos within the Turks. In addition, the snowstorm broke out in the Turks last year, which caused a lot of food shortages in the Turks. These are all signs of the weakening of the Turks' national strength!"

Meeting Li Er's disappointed gaze, Li Zexuan bowed his hands as usual.

Li Er said lightly: "If that's the case, shouldn't I send troops to destroy Jie Li at this time?"

Li Zexuan shook his head quickly and said, "That's not the case! Your Majesty, although the Turks have suffered civil strife and natural disasters, Jieli's strength has been preserved well, and the national power is still stronger than that of our Tang Dynasty! In the view of the minister, since the national power of the Eastern Turks has shown a decline, Why don't I, Tang, wait any longer?"

"Oh~! Wait? Then when do you say you have to wait?"

Li Er sneered, his tone was not good.
