Datang Library

He secretly praised a few words in his heart, and Lao Gao sneered: "Hmph! Redeem people? Don't dream, you three countries are hateful, not only did you not come to redeem people, but even joined forces to attack our Northeast Army of the Tang Dynasty, causing us heavy casualties, Your Majesty Having said that, if we want to destroy the country and take revenge, we will kill you to sacrifice the flag first."

"No, it's impossible. It's impossible for Nusa Yanshou to disregard my life. He is my most trusted general." Yuan Gai Suwen exclaimed.

"Stop rambling, punish the fifth child, take him out for execution, His Majesty is still waiting for the result."

In the open space outside the sky prison, a small execution ground has been set up. In fact, it is a wooden pillar inserted into the ground. At the same time, some people are waiting with some food boxes. The envoys of the three kingdoms add up to dozens of people.

Yuan Gai Suwen, who was still very calm at first, felt his legs go limp when he took a step. When he walked to the execution ground, opened the food box, and saw the food box with severed heads, he couldn't hold on any longer, and hit him with a bang. Turning over the food box, the whole person yelled like crazy, Datang killed envoys indiscriminately, and there will be retribution.

In fact, he was extremely unwilling in his heart, he shouldn't have come to Datang rashly, and just as soon as he took power, he lost his life in Datang, how innocent!

And the Khitan Yelubao was dragged out by the prison staff completely. Along the way, this guy was frightened and poured out feces and urine without any tolerance. What makes people curious is that, unlike Yuan Gai Suwen, this person really saw the broken man. At the time of the first meal, he calmed down, as if he had seen through life and death, he hugged the food box and started to eat.

A quarter of an hour later, these dozens of people performed various tricks for the last quarter of an hour of their lives. Yuan Gai Suwen was knocked unconscious and tied to a pillar. Yelubao threw the bowl in his hand and shouted, "I'm full!" , to be a full-fledged ghost is enough!"

……

The executioners in the prison looked at this guy like an idiot, not to mention your filthy feast, but what does this decapitated meal have to do with Queben?Could it be that if you let you eat a full meal, you can kill your head casually?I have to say that the ideas of these alien races are really weird.

"Execute, His Majesty is still waiting for his return."

At this time, the envoy of Mohe who was tied to the pillar cried, "Don't kill me, they won't come to redeem me, I will pay for it myself, I have money, I have ten chests of gold, I will pay for it, let me go!"

Xing Laowu sneered, "I've been watching this guy calm down until the end, but I didn't expect that he is no different from others, and he is also a vegetable."

"Hmph, ten boxes of gold? How many lives do you kill my soldiers of the Tang Dynasty? That's a blood feud between life and death. Does the Tang Dynasty lack your ten boxes of gold? Do it!" Lao Gao scolded disdainfully.

Just when the knife and ax hand raised the long knife and was about to slash, a fast horse rushed over and saved the lives of these people with a sound of the knife from a distance.

He stopped the execution knife and axe, Lao Gao was puzzled, did something happen again?

After hearing the explanation from the visitor, Lao Gao didn't say a word, and asked Xing Lao Wu to bring everyone back and wait for the punishment. Xing Lao Wu cursed secretly in his heart. They need to be reduced for dinner.

The first sentence Yuan Gai Suwen said after being woken up was: "Is this what hell looks like?"

Three days after Datang received the urgent report from Youzhou, another fast horse rushed to Chang'an, and the imperial palace Li Er finally received the conditions of Liaodong's extortion and exchange of prisoners.

A letter from Sa Yanshou and others said that Cheng Yaojin and Niu Jinda had been captured by the Allied Forces of the Three Kingdoms, and Datang must hand over all the envoys of the Three Kingdoms, or Cheng Niu and Cheng Niu would not be left behind.

Although he was full of anger, the current situation really made people helpless. Li Er sighed: "Pharmacist, take Tang Jian and Du Gou of Honglu Temple, take our captives, lead Youzhou soldiers and horses, and at the same time ask for [-] soldiers from Yunzhou Maogong , Go to Liaodong, even if it is a negotiation, we have to let the enemy see the momentum, you have the right to make decisions, and the lives of the soldiers and Lao Cheng and Lao Niu are up to you.

We don't want to fight Liaodong. If you can save people, don't fight. This is the bottom line. If the other party is really harsh and rude, you...

Hey, play it by ear! "

Li Er can only say this, he can't lead the conquest in person, Li Jing knows that he can't fight, and he believes that the relationship between Li Jing and the generals is like life and death, and he won't let it go.

"The veteran is under orders, and will do everything possible to rescue the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty."

Seeing Li Jing's faltering footsteps, Li Er knew that this might be the only time in Li Jing's military career that he bowed his head and admitted that he couldn't beat the opponent. Even if Tang was desperate, he would not bow to anyone.

Today's Chapter 3, thank you for your support.

Chapter 5 Thirteen: Lu Dongzan’s Planning and Grain Transportation Crisis

On the border of Tubo, the lord Songtsan Gampo stood on the mountain and looked far into the distance. It has been three days. The vice minister passed down a letter saying that he had successfully escorted the prime minister back to the country and would arrive in a few days. Why did he not arrive?

Another day passed, and at dusk, a chariot gradually appeared in the distance. Songtsan Gampo finally showed a smile, and after a big laugh, he quickly went up to the official road down the mountain with his personal guards. .

"Master, where is Prime Minister? Here I come." Ignoring the rugged mountain road under his feet, Songtsan Gampo rushed to the vicinity of the chariot and horses.

Everyone in the motorcade hurriedly bowed and saluted, when they saw the curtain of a spacious carriage in the middle of the car was lifted, and a weak voice came out.

"Your Majesty, Lu Dongzan pays homage to His Majesty. The subject is injured and cannot fully salute. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

Songtsan Gampo ignored the rest of the people, and rushed forward quickly, and what he saw head-on was Lu Dongzan's legs wrapped in thick bandages, as well as his sunken eye sockets and tired expression.

Songtsan Gampo, the king of Tubo, was moved with tears in his eyes, stepped forward and grabbed Lu Dongzan's hands, and said sadly, "Your Majesty, you have suffered for Tubo!"

"It's okay, going deep into the tiger's den, there is no reason to retreat completely. It is not easy to save a life, but the harvest is worth it, a pair of legs is nothing more.

Besides, the other party didn't kill him, and he would be able to go to the ground in two months. "The gray-haired Lu Dongzan seemed to be talking and laughing unintentionally, but after getting along for many years, how could Songtsan Gampo fail to feel the hatred buried in the old man's heart.

"Don't worry, my lord, your blood will not be shed in vain. One day, sooner or later, I will personally lead the army, break through Chang'an, and avenge you with your enemies." Songtsan Gampo said through gritted teeth.

Lu Dongzan was moved. He has been following this young monarch for nearly ten years. His hard work, wisdom and martial arts are admirable, but what really makes people willing to surrender their lives is the mutual acquaintance of the two monarchs. It can be said that Tubo has what it is today. Lu Dongzan accounted for half of the credit for the situation.

After receiving Lu Dongzan, Songtsan Gampo was about to lead the team back to the capital, but was stopped by Lu Dongzan.

"Your Majesty, the situation is urgent. We can't go back to the capital for the time being. There is still a major matter to be done at Datang."

"Oh? Prime Minister managed to escape from the Tang Dynasty with great difficulty. Safety is the most important thing in everything. After we develop for a few years, we can argue with Datang. There is no need to fight for a while." Songtsan Gampo thought that Lu Dongzan was in a hurry to take revenge. , patiently persuaded.

"No, it's not that the subordinates want to avenge their own personal revenge. It's because Datang bought a batch of treasures from overseas today. It is said that they are grains and grasses with a yield of one thousand catties per mu. If we get such things, then..."

What? ? ?

A thousand catties of grain per mu?

Songtsan Gampo was stunned, how many catties per mu?Don’t say you’ve seen it, you’ve never heard of it. Tubo is located on a high plateau, and it’s difficult to grow food. Most of the people live on highland barley and animal husbandry, which limits the national power and population. If this is the case, then Tubo's national strength is really unimaginable, and I am afraid that it will be the number one enemy of the Tang Dynasty.

"According to the old minister's speculation, since it is overseas fairy food, it is not local wheat, rice and beans. It must be a new plant. Maybe we can grow and harvest it in Tibet, so we must get this treasure.

Therefore, the old minister has the courage to borrow troops from His Majesty, and borrow the five thousand high mountain camps from His Majesty's hands. Only with such elite soldiers can we have any hope of success. "

Songtsan Gampo's eyes also glowed with fanaticism, fairy food?A thousand catties per mu?This thing must belong to Tubo, otherwise it will be given to Datang. In a few years, who will be the opponent of Datang in the surrounding countries?

"Okay, all the five thousand state guards will be dispatched by the prime minister, and I will give you another twenty thousand elite Tubo warriors."

"No, Datang set off from Lingnan to go overseas to obtain immortal food. Now the immortal food is escorted by Datang Hou Junji, Bai Fan and others with an army of [-] left guards and a combined Xuanjia army of [-]. According to the calculations of the veterans, They will be sent to Chang'an for breeding in another [-] days, and we will have no chance by then.

It is probably unrealistic for a large army to pursue and intercept from Tubo, and it is estimated that they will be stopped if they can't get there. Only the elite of the elite like the Huguoying can be broken into pieces, lightly packed, and ambushed halfway by surprise. . "

Songtsan Gampo worried: "Here, 5000 people against [-]? We have no chance of winning! Although the Tubo National Guard is an elite force that is not weaker than the Xuanjia Army that we have accumulated from fighting against the plateau countries for ten years, but the number The gap is too obvious, and the enemy still has the Xuanjia Army, so I am afraid it will be difficult for us to succeed."

Lu Dongzan laughed loudly and said, "That's right, protecting the state camp alone will definitely not succeed, so the veteran has prepared not only this team, but I also have two other teams.

One is that I spent [-]% of Tubo’s money to hire two thousand outlaws from the Tang underworld. The other is the person who defected to us a few months ago. To deal with the Tang people, of course the Tang people are more experienced.

The national defense battalion is just an ambush and a sneak attack. The gangsters start. It's good that the two teams succeed. , is not a problem. "

Songtsan Gambo felt a little distressed when he heard Lu Dong praised him for spending [-]% ​​of Tubo's wealth. He has been in business for many years and worked hard to manage it. Only the parties know how difficult it is to save this little family property.

As for the National Guard Camp, it took Tubo more than ten years to unify the high mountain area. Tubo was originally a tribal alliance country, and it was handed down to Songtsen Gampo for the third term of No. 30. He and Lu Dongzan joined forces and finally The country was unified through arduous wars, and the political power was consolidated. At the same time, in order to strengthen the rule of Tubo slavery, Buddhist religious culture was introduced from Tianzhu. It was at this time that Tibetan Buddhism in history entered the plateau.

After many years of fighting, Tubo has trained a legendary army across the plateau. Originally, there were 10 elite soldiers. When the bloody battle ended, there were still [-] people alive. A personal soldier, but although this army is elite, it is only known to the inside of Tubo, and it has not been spread. After all, information communication on the plateau is inconvenient.

At this time, it took more than 20 days. Bai Fan and Hou Junji and their group carefully escorted the grain and grass. They had just arrived in Changsha City, and there was still a long way to go. A large army, an existence that ordinary bandits can't afford to mess with.
