Chapter 195 You Must Come Back Alive...
When Lin Ran rushed to the imperial study.
The study was already overcrowded.
Boy.
Not only were the important ministers of the three provinces and six ministries present.
The bigwigs in the army are also here.
Lin Ran saw this battle and knew that something big was about to happen.
But according to my own recollections, there was no war this year, right?
Could it be because of his arrival that everything has changed?
Lin Ran's guess was right.
It was indeed because of his arrival.
Let a lot of things happen in advance.
In the western border of the Tang Dynasty.
There is a stretch of mountains and snowfields.
This high mountain encompasses the Qilian Mountains.
This snowfield encompasses the valley of the upper reaches of the Yellow River. ใ
In that high mountains and snowy fields, there is a kingdom.
The name of this kingdom is Tuguhun.
They were originally a kingdom established by the Xianbei tribe in Liaodong.
The founder of the country is called Tugu Hun.
Originally, he was the eldest son of Murong Dadanyu of Xianbei in Liaodong, and Murong Shegui.
Is it out?
Naturally, it was made by the little wife of the big single Yu.
In this way, Tuguhun was depressed.
He is the eldest brother, and he can't sit on the throne because of his concubine.
So life has been very awkward.
Before his father died, the crown prince was not Tugu Hun.
It's his sister-in-law.
Fortunately, his father Wang Nian gave 1,700 households of Tuguhun to the people of 1,700 households.
Under the command of Tugu Hun.
After the death of his father, his son-in-law succeeded to the throne smoothly.
Tuguhun, who was unwilling, took these 1,700 households with him.
Began his legendary life.
He led his people all the way west, conquering many forces of the Qiang and other tribes along the way.
Finally established a kingdom in the upper reaches of the Yellow River in the Qilian Mountains.
He forged ahead and extended his influence to present-day Gansu and Qinghai.
The land area is the largest kingdom of the western tribes.
And they also have a proud historical achievement, that is, a small number of famous people, the longest reigning kingdom.
Murong Fuyun, the king of Tuguhun, is a ruthless man.
He is also an extremely ambitious person.
He wanted the glory of his ancestors to continue to be brilliant.
Now Tuyuhun's territory can no longer satisfy his insatiable heart.
The surrounding tribes and clans were all annihilated by him in one fell swoop.
The tribe is huge, and the population is large.
Then the question arises!
So many people, so many mouths.
How do you break eating and drinking Lazar?
In addition, his land itself is not fertile, let alone abundant.
So, for stomach problems.
King Tuyuhun had to send troops to plunder food everywhere.
Whatever it is to have a woman, so much the better.
So the accident happened, and a small group of soldiers actually invaded the border of Longyou.
And they not only robbed and killed a family of ordinary people.
A large number of potatoes and sweet potatoes were also found in people's homes.
These delicious and delicious foods make them ecstatic.
The taste after steaming is simply comfortable to the bone.
This squad of soldiers immediately carried all the potatoes and sweet potatoes from the people's homes.
This is this very remote little mountain village.
By the time the residents found out about the misfortune, the family's bodies were cold.
So the villagers immediately reported it, and the stakes were very high!
Because all the food in his family was plundered, he knew that the time was invaded by foreign tribes.
Think about the proclamation that His Majesty once issued that no one should buy or sell food such as potatoes and sweet potatoes from the Tang Dynasty to foreign countries.
The villagers who reported it ran faster and faster.
"Master Guan, I'm here to report to the official, someone has died in our village, and even sweet potatoes and potatoes have been robbed."
When the county government heard it, it was okay.
Now is the time for all departments and localities of Datang to unify military training and study.
If there is a problem in their county, no one in the county government will be able to escape.
"Fellow, don't panic, I'll report to the county and let the county make a decision."
When the county zun heard this, the hairs all over his body exploded.
"Immediately gather everyone to the scene of the incident."
"Master, are you going too?"
"Go, the county government will leave a few guards, and everyone will follow."
When will you not go now?
If you can't say it, the black gauze hat on your head will not be guaranteed.
The villager who reported the official brought a group of people to the victim's villager's home.
The scene was really miserable, and the county was furious on the spot.
This time something went wrong.
"County Zun, they left after cooking on the spot and eating it."
"Judging from the footprints at the scene, there were more than dozens of people."
"There is no doubt that such a bold man will be a foreigner."
After some exploration of the scene, the head catcher of the county government came to a general conclusion.
When the county heard the report, the whole person was not good.
That's fucking unlucky, isn't it?
Now the entire Datang is evaluating local officials.
Not only did there be a murder in his own country, but it was also very likely that it was a foreign provocation that caused the two countries to go to war.
However, such a thing cannot be concealed and not reported.
Once you conceal it and don't report it, there will be major consequences, and you will really not be able to eat and walk away.
"A few of you who stayed here will bury the fellow first, and put it in the ground."
"The rest of you, keep an eye on this. They have benefited and will definitely come back. โ
"The official also has to go to the Taishou office in person and follow the official to ask for guilt."
After the county honored everything.
I rode to the Taishou Mansion to apologize.
"Shangguan, Xiaguan is guilty."
When Taishou heard this, he immediately stood up.
"What is the sin? It's the time for local officials to be evaluated. โ
"Don't pull the back of the official."
"Xia Guanzhi has a murder case, and it is initially inferred that it was a foreign invasion, and even the potatoes and sweet potatoes of the villagers' families were transported away."
"The fellow has a family of six, and there is no survivor."
Tai Shou's face turned green when he heard it.
However, it's no wonder that the county is respected.
So he sent 3,000 troops to support.
Che said that the Tuguhun soldiers who brought back large quantities of sweet potatoes and potatoes.
Potatoes and sweet potatoes were offered directly to King Tutani Hun .
King Tugu Hun tasted such delicious and fresh food and rewarded them.
"Where does this food come from?"
"Your Majesty, it's a small mountain village on the border of the Tang Dynasty."
The soldier answered truthfully.
"What? A small mountain village is so rich? More comfortable than the life of this king? โ
Murong Fuyun, King of Tuguhun, said in surprise.
"Your Majesty, this... It's just a farmer's house. โ
The soldier replied truthfully.
When Murong Fuyun, the king of Tuguhun, heard this, he almost fell from the throne.
"A family? How can a family be so rich? โ
"What does it mean for this king to be this king?"
"A few of you immediately lead troops to continue to deliver food to this king, and those who dare to resist will be killed."
"Your Majesty, they don't dare to resist, they are all unarmed farmers, very simple."
"Your Majesty, just wait for the good news from your subordinates."
There were hundreds more soldiers coming back than last time.
But when they just stepped into the land of Datang.
It was surrounded by 3,000 soldiers sent by Taishou to support.
After severe torture, he finally knew that it was Murong Fuyun, the king of Tuguhun, who did it.
"This official immediately went to the court..."
After Taishou got the true situation, he immediately reported the matter to the imperial court.
Hence the scene at the beginning of this chapter.
"King Tuguhun, I don't want you to make trouble, but you are here to make trouble for me."
"What a good courage, I will not spare it."
His Majesty Li Er slapped the imperial case with a snapping sound.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I want to go to the expedition in person, and I haven't fought for many years."
"My body and bones are itchy, and it just so happens that this muddy valley gives me a chance to move my muscles and bones."
"Your Majesty, never, never."
The ministers gave salutes and dissuaded them.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that you can't let Your Majesty drive the expedition in person." โ
Lin Ran's words made Li Er calm down for the time being.
"Your Majesty, the last general is willing to take command of the battle."
"Give the last general 100,000 troops, and the last general will definitely level the earth and valley, avenge the people of the Tang Dynasty, and give His Majesty this evil breath in his chest."
Lin Ran looked at Li Jing who stood up, and couldn't help but be in awe.
Today's Wei Guo Gong Li Jing is sixty years old.
In history, Zhenguan broke the earth and valley in the ninth year.
It was Li Jing, who was already 63 years old, who took command of the expedition.
In one fell swoop, the dust of the dirt valley was wiped out.
"Wei Guogong can't leave the station either, it's time for you to rest and rest."
Lin Ran said distressedly.
"Shang Shulang, do you think the old man is old?"
"Do you think the old man can't lift the big knife?"
Wei Guogong Li Jing blushed and scolded with a thick neck.
"There is no problem for Wei Guogong to fight, but that Tuguhun is a place where it snows in summer."
"Uncle's body is really unbearable."
"Leave this battle to us young people."
Lin Ran's words made the imperial study quiet.
"Then it really snows in the summer?"
Cheng Biting Jin looked like he didn't believe it when he was killed.
"When did the juniors deceive your uncles?"
Lin Ran played the family card.
Everyone thought, yes. This kid was quirky, but he had never deceived any of them.
"Aiqing, is there a better candidate?"
Li Er knew that Lin Ran had a lot of ideas, and since he said so, he must have known it in his heart.
"Let Su Dingfang lead Huaiyu, Baolin, Jianhu, bereavement and fulfillment, and Du He to lead 50,000 elite soldiers."
Good guy, as soon as Lin Ran opened his mouth, he put his sworn brothers, except for Cheng Chumo and Changsun Chong, who went to the Western Regions.
All of them were recommended.
Prime Minister Fang Xuanling looked back at Lin Ran and saw Lin Ran's breezy appearance.
He opened his mouth and closed it again.
Du Ruhui, the secretary of the military department, did not speak.
He knew that this was Lin Ran giving a great credit to his family Duhe.
The military exploits of the last Eastern Turkic War were promoted by Lin Ran, how could he oppose it this time.
The eldest grandson Wuji will not object, the eldest grandson Chong has just been sent away by him and Lin Ran, if Chong'er does not go to the Western Regions, he will definitely be arranged by Lin Ran this time.
Cheng Yanjin hugged his arms and watched smallpox.
Wei Chi Jingde, Qin Qiong, and Niu Jinda were also silent.
silently gave Lin Ran 10,000 likes in his heart.
"So, all Aiqing has no objection?"
His Majesty Li Er, looked around at the civil and military ministers around him.
"Ministers, no objection..."
Prime Minister Fang Xuanling was the first to speak.
Then there was a chorus of echoes.
"However, these generals, except for General Su, who has rich combat experience, are still too young."
Even His Majesty Li Er could see the strange atmosphere in the imperial study.
So he questioned.
"Your Majesty, it is enough to have General Su alone, and Huaiyu, see the tiger, how can they grow if they don't sharpen and sharpen?"
"If you don't experience wind and rain, how can you see a rainbow?"
"And Weichen will personally go to meet Murong Fuyun of Tuguhun for a while this time."
In the imperial study, there was a sound of gasp.
His Majesty Li Er stood up.
"Aiqing, do you want to go in person?"
"Yes, Weichen is willing to level the soil and valley for His Majesty and plant that land with the flag of the Tang Dynasty."
"Let the flag of Datang flutter in the wind there."
"But you're gone, what about the Academy?"
Li Er saw Lin Ran's righteous and awe-inspiring appearance, and his face was happy.
Let the banner of Datang flutter in the wind on that land, this is really fucking beautiful.
"It's time for the college to go on vacation, and Wechen is confident that it will be victorious before the start of school."
"Okay, just according to what Aiqing said."
"I, I've seen Aiqing's talent in writing, and I'm looking forward to your performance in martial arts."
His Majesty Li Er's eyes are now becoming more and more fiery when he looks at Lin Ran.
This is his own fast son-in-law.
This is the fast son-in-law I want.
How can you see a rainbow without experiencing wind and rain?
Let this kid go through the wind and rain, as for whether he can see the rainbow?
Let's wait for him to come back in triumph.
"Spread my will, let Su Dingfang be the generalissimo of the crusade, and Lin Ran be the deputy marshal."
"Qin Huaiyu, Yu Chi Baolin, for the left and right pioneers..."
"The cow sees the tiger, the house leaves love... and others, for the conquest of the general..."
"Lead 50,000 troops, and after three days, the troops will leave Chang'an, and they will not be returned if they do not level the soil and valleys."
"If you don't level the earth and valley, you will not return it."
Su Dingfang and Lin Ran said respectfully.
Now that he has been appointed as the deputy commander, it is natural to respond with the last general.
After the ministers left the imperial study.
His Majesty Li Er left Lin Ran alone.
"Aren't you afraid that Changle will worry?"
"There are no outsiders here, let's talk about digging into our hearts."
"Your Majesty, please don't tell Chang Lechen the news of the expedition."
"Tell her when the minister is gone, the minister will leave a letter for Changle."
"She is optimistic that she will naturally understand the minister's intentions."
"Okay, I promise you, but Changle cries, I can't coax it."
"Minister, I believe that Changle will not cry, even if she cries, she will laugh and cry..."
The two of them chatted for a long time in the imperial study.
When Li Er heard Lin Ran's plan to fight Tuguhun, he finally put his mind at ease.
"If your kid has three longs and two shorts, I won't say much about the consequences."
"There are no eyes on the battlefield, so I carefully read my body..."
His Majesty Li Er's last sentence came from the bottom of his heart.
made Lin Ran's eyes red.
When His Majesty Li Er told Empress Changsun about Lin Ran's expedition.
This strong woman actually wet her eyes with tears.
"Erlang, why do you want Shang Shulang to go?"
"He's still a kid, huh? In case... How do you let us live for Changle? โ
"Guanyin, he said it himself, how can you see a rainbow without experiencing wind and rain?"
"Let him go through the wind and rain..."
"Don't worry, that kid will be fine."
Li Er clenched the jade bowl of the eldest grandson queen and comforted.
Sun and Lin Zhengtai listened to their son's words.
Sun almost fainted on the spot.
The son is going to war.
Is that a war?
It's going to die.
"Son, why did you take this step?"
"Isn't it nice to look like this now?"
Sun said with tears in his eyes.
"My mother didn't cry, my brother said he was going to fight the bad guys."
"If my brother doesn't fight the bad guys, those bad guys will come and bully Guoguo."
"My brother went to protect Guoguo before he went to fight the bad guys."
"My brother said it, I'll be back soon."
Guoguo sensibly wiped her mother's tears.
It made Sun cry more and more.
"Mother doesn't cry, brother is gone, Houhou is a man."
"Brother asked Houhou to take care of his mother..."
Sun hugged the two children tightly in his arms.
Hugged tightly...
"Silly boy, this opportunity for meritorious service has come."
"Don't embarrass Lao Tzu."
"Remember one sentence, just listen to Lin Ran's kid about anything."
Wei Chi Jingde is giving Baolin an ideological and political lesson.
"Jun'er, remember to listen to Lin Ran's arrangement for anything, don't act recklessly."
Prime Minister Fang Xuanling is also teaching Fang Yiai experience.
Du Ruhui, the secretary of the military department, is also telling Du He the same truth.
Qin Qiong and Huaiyu, Niu Jinda and Jianhu...
The same topic is being discussed.
Everything is the same.
Listen to Lin Ran's instructions, that's right.
Three days later in the morning.
The north gate of Chang'an City.
50,000 soldiers were assembled.
Li Er led hundreds of civil and military officials to come to the grand march.
Empress Eldest Sun was afraid that she would cry when she saw Lin Ran go on the expedition, so she insisted on not seeing Lin Ran off.
"Sons, drink this bowl of Zhuangxing wine, and I am waiting for the news of your triumph."
"On the day of triumph, I will go out of the city for ten miles to greet me."
"Drink wins... Drink wins..."
After drinking the wine in the bowl, the soldiers shouted in unison.
"Isn't this our little singer Guoguo?"
"Who are you looking for at the academy?"
The nursing home of the women's college knew Guoguo, and when she saw Guoguo and Houhou running over, she asked with a happy smile.
"Guoguo is looking for her sister, Guoguo's sister."
Guoguo said with a wink.
"Guoguo is looking for that sister?"
"Guoguo is looking for Sister Changle..."
As soon as the nursing home heard these two words, his face immediately became respectful.
"Guoguo, I'm going to call your sister now."
The nurse turned and left.
After a while, Changle came out of the classroom.
"Sister, sister..."
Guoguo and Houhou, ran over with joy.
Changle happily picked up the two children.
"Why did you come to my sister at this time?"
"My brother asked Guoguo to hand over a letter to my sister, and my brother went to fight the bad guys."
"If my brother doesn't fight those bad guys, the bad guys will come to bully Guoguo and my sister."
After speaking, Guoguo handed the letter to Changle.
Changle opened the letterhead.
Familiar and beautiful handwriting comes to mind.
Suddenly, she picked up Guoguo and Houhou, and ran to the north gate like crazy.
The north gate was empty.
The soldiers guarding the gate said that the army had been gone for half an hour.
Changle ran to the Lin Mansion like crazy.
Place the fruit and the thick at the door of the mansion.
Run to the palace.
"Father, mother. Give Erchen the fastest fast horse... The fastest..."
"Erchen just wants to tell Childe a word... Just one word..."
Changle fell to his knees and wept silently.
Empress Eldest Sun cried into tears.
Changle's tears pierced her heart like a knife.
"Hurry up and prepare a fast horse for Changle... Are you all dead? โ
Li Er shouted angrily.
Changle stepped onto his horse and waved his whip.
The sound of horses' hooves of 'da-da' and 'da-da'.
It beat her heart again and again.
My dearest person, why didn't you tell Changle the news that you were leaving?
Are you worried that Changle will cry?
Are you worried that Changle will be sad?
If you leave quietly like this, Changle won't be worried?
Won't cry anymore?
The galloping horses galloped for dozens of miles.
The great army ahead is finally visible.
Changle had tears on his face and laughed.
"Childe, Childe..."
"Vice marshal, it's the princess here..."
When Lin Ran heard this, he turned his horse's head.
"Driving... Drive...
The two fast horses galloped together.
The two of them also hugged each other.
Feeling Lin Ran's warm and powerful embrace.
"Silly girl, why do you want to make this trip?"
"Didn't the letterhead say it all?"
Lin Ran looked at Changle with tears on his face distressed.
"Changle just wants to tell Childe one word."
"You must come back alive."
"Gotta come back alive."
At that moment, Lin Ran's tears rained down.
"Silly girl, even if it's for you, I'll come back alive."
"Go back, 50,000 soldiers are waiting for me alone."
Lin Ran turned over and got on his horse.
"Go back, I'll come back alive."
Getting Lin Ran's promise, Changle smiled.
Crying and laughing.
"Changle, believe in Childe, Changle will wait for Childe to come back."
The crown prince Li Chengqian, the king of Wei, Li Tai, and the king of Han, Li Ke, returned from vacation.
After learning the news that the teacher was in charge of the expedition.
They all shed tears in front of their father and mother.
"Father, isn't there a general in the army?"
"Why do you want the teacher to go to the battle, my father won't let me send the green sparrow to the battlefield..."
"You bastard, see if my father doesn't kill you..."
Li Er raised his slap high when he heard this.
Frightened, Empress Changsun hurriedly protected the green sparrow behind her.
But I saw Li Tai's stubborn and determined eyes.
He sighed and slapped it down.
"He is here for the country, so that you can study and study with peace of mind."
"This is a letter he wrote to Changle, you three can take a look."
The three princes read the teacher's letter.
The tears never stopped.
"Father, sons, must study hard and practice their skills. Like a teacher, protect every inch of Datang's land. โ
"Those who offend my Tang Dynasty will be punished even if they are far away!"
The firm voices of the three children rang out in the sky above the Lizheng Hall.
This is a sentence in Lin Ran's letterhead.
was impassionedly shouted by the three princes.
Let His Majesty Li Er feel relieved in his heart.
Lin Ran is indeed using his words and deeds to teach his students to establish correct and firm ideals and beliefs.
His three princes were sent to the academy to study with him, which was really the right choice.
However, His Majesty Li Er is about to be criticized.
Li Yuan knew that after Lin Ran set out on the expedition, he was furious, and he couldn't control it!
"Shimin, you are really confused! Confused..."
"I'd rather give up an army of 100,000 than give up this child! You're so angry with your father..."
After speaking, he brushed his sleeves away, waved his hand, and did not take away a single cloud.
For his father's anger, His Majesty Li Er was also deeply helpless.
He believed that Lin Ran would definitely return triumphantly.
Definitely!
However, he said that Murong Fuyun, the king of Tuyuhun, was waiting for his soldiers to send delicious potatoes and sweet potatoes to him again.
But he waited left and right, and there was not a trace of news.
Could it be that these soldiers have rebelled?
Murong Fuyun, the king of Tuyuhun, began to think.
So he gathered his men and held a meeting to study the matter.
In the end, it was not surprising that the soldiers who had gone to plunder the delicious food had defected.
Because they are going to the border of the Tang Dynasty!
With so many soldiers going, there was no reason why they couldn't come back.
There was only one reason, they ran away with the food.
Ran away with food?
If they knew the current situation of Datang now, they would definitely cry and faint in the toilet for their inference.
"You guys go ahead and plunder the food and bring more soldiers."
"As soon as the traces of the rebels are discovered, the king will be immediately sentenced to death."
"It is a good courage to dare to betray this king, and show their hearts to this king, what color it is."
Murong Fuyun, the king of Tuyuhun, said viciously.
"If your subordinates obey your orders, your subordinates will definitely bring delicious food to the king."
Several generals who had been nominated by Murong Fuyun replied respectfully.
"Well, this king, I await the good news of your triumph."
"Now these delicacies are not enough for the king to enjoy for a few days."
"I hope that before these delicacies are exhausted by this king, you can send such delicacies to this king."
Murong Fuyun took a bite, the sweet and refreshing sweet potato, closed his eyes and enjoyed it.
The subordinates took the order and left, and soon took nearly a thousand soldiers and went straight to the border of the Tang Dynasty.
As for why so many soldiers?
Of course, in case they encounter their own rebels, they can correct the law on the spot.
If there are fewer soldiers with them, won't they be punished by the rebels?
A group of people came in a mighty way!
The huge team made the three thousand soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, who were waiting for the battle, immediately look gloomy.
Taishou really predicted correctly, these bastards are really unscrupulous!
The generals who led the army immediately gave the order to prepare for battle, and it was necessary to completely annihilate the enemy.
"General, what is grown in that land may be the food that the king likes."
A soldier spoke flatteringly.
"Well, that makes sense, but General Ben can't see the fruit?"
The general said suspiciously.
"General, maybe it's secret underground."
The soldier's brain was active, and he blinked his eyes and spoke.
"It's kind of interesting, dig it out and see."
The soldier received the order and immediately ran over and dug hard.
And he was stunned, oh my God!
It turned out to be a dense pile of potatoes, gathered together.
The soldier's eyes turned red.
Significant pink eye.
"General, General. The food is really underground. โ
Soon a crowd of people gathered around.
The general looked at the pile of potatoes of various sizes, and his eyes almost fell to the ground.
"Dig hard for Lao Tzu, dig them all up."
"This time General Ben can be regarded as a meritorious service, and the king will definitely reward General Ben."
"Your benefits will be indispensable when the time comes."
Hearing the general's order, the soldiers picked up their weapons one after another and dug into the ground vigorously.
Three thousand Tang soldiers quietly surrounded this group of Tuyuhun soldiers who put their minds on the ground and worked hard.
"Kill......"
Order.
When most of the Tuyuhun soldiers had not yet reacted.
There are already human heads flying in the air.
"General, we have been tricked, we are surrounded..."
One by one, the soldiers panicked.
Hundreds of soldiers protected the general and fought to break through to a place with few people.
As a result, they still rushed open.
The general and several of his own soldiers rushed out of the encirclement in embarrassment.
They got on their horses and soon disappeared without a trace.
Let the generals of the Tang Dynasty sigh.
"After all, they still ran out a few times, and it seems that a fierce battle is coming."
The general said worriedly.
"General, will Your Majesty send a large army to support us?"
"It will, but I don't know when the army will arrive!"
"We'll have to stay here, even if we're the last soldier left."
"We also have to keep this land......"
The general spoke loudly.
"Rest assured, general, we will defend this land to the death."
"Swear to live and ......die with Datang"
The soldiers shouted in unison!
A loud sound, the frightened birds in the woods, just at peace, flapped their wings and flew into the distance.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty... Big things are not good. โ
The general crawled and came to Murong Fuyun.
"Why is it covered in blood? Could it be that the soldiers given to you by this king can't even contain more than a hundred rebels? โ
"You still have the fucking face to come back?"
Murong Fuyun, the king of Tuyuhun, kicked him over.
"Your Majesty, it's not a rebel. It's Tang Jun... It's the Tang Army, and our soldiers are all killed in battle..."
"Your Majesty, you must avenge our soldiers!"
"Your Majesty, your subordinates have seen a lot of delicacies that the king likes, and our soldiers were surrounded by the Tang army when they were digging delicacies for the king."
As soon as he heard the food, Murong Fuyun's eyes lit up.
Both eyes are extremely greedy.
"In this way, our people did not rebel before."
"They were also slaughtered by the Tang army."
"O King Shengming! They must have also been slaughtered by the Tang Army, who guarded the food. โ
The general said with a loud cry.
"The Tang Army guarding the food?"
"For such a delicacy, someone will definitely be sent to guard it, if it is not the army of the Tang Dynasty."
"Someone, immediately convene a few generals to discuss the matter."
Murong Fuyun gave the king's order.
Soon, several generals of Tuyuhun came one after another.
"Your Majesty, are you going to attack the Tang Dynasty?"
When several generals heard Murong Fuyun's words, they were all stunned.
The scars of being beaten more than 10 years ago are still vivid.
Now the king is going to take the egg and touch the stone.
They were a little panicked for a moment.
"Don't panic, generals, it's just some stragglers who guard the food!"
"Even if he really attacks the Tang Dynasty, this king has enough soldiers and horses available."
"Ten years of recuperation, will this king still be afraid that they will not succeed?"
When I heard Murong Fuyun say that he was just a straggler who guarded the food.
The mood of these great generals immediately relaxed.
"Your Majesty, the last general is willing to lead his troops to annihilate those stragglers and avenge the dead soldiers."
"For the king, the general snatched the food."
Hearing the general's words, Murong Fuyun smiled.
"Okay, hard work general. The general must take more men and horses with him this time. โ
"With an army of 10,000, this king awaits the news of the general's triumph."
The general was ordered to go, led by the generals who had fled, and headed for the border of the Tang Dynasty.
"Big marshal, deputy marshal, it's time to go to Lanzhou."
The pioneer of pathfinders returned to report.
"Little tenth brother, Lanzhou has finally arrived, and the army is resting in Lanzhou, right?"
Coach Su Dingfang looked at Lin Ran sideways.
"Big brother, the battle ahead is unclear, so let's send someone to the Taishou Mansion first, ask about the situation and then decide."
Hearing Lin Ran's words.
Su Dingfang nodded, and immediately arranged for two personal guards to rush to the Taishou Mansion immediately.
In the Taishou Mansion, Taishou was listening to the report of the battle ahead.
"Taishou, Tugu Hun came to commit more than 1,000 people, and was surrounded by my legion, but unfortunately a few people ran out after all."
"And the general who led the team fled..."
"Immediately send another 5,000 troops to reinforcements, and be sure to speed up the march."
Taishou gave the latest instructions.
"Taishou, send another 5,000 elite soldiers, and our Lanzhou will become an empty city."
The general who came to report responded worriedly.
"Lanzhou doesn't need to worry, we must put our troops at the forefront and not let them succeed, otherwise the consequences will not be a matter of Lanzhou City."
Taishou's mood is also very heavy.
Once Lanzhou has no soldiers, it will also take a great risk.
"Newspaper..."
"Taishou, General Su's personal soldiers are here..."
"General Su's personal soldiers, the army of the imperial court is coming..."
Taishou's face immediately became happy.
"Quick, please come in, quick..."
Two personal soldiers saluted Taishou.
"Taishou, the 50,000 troops of the commander are still fifty miles away from Lanzhou."
"The commander sent his subordinates to inquire about the situation of the battle ahead, so that they could make arrangements."
Taishou gave the battle ahead to the two soldiers in detail and explained it in detail.
"This official thinks that Tugu Hun will definitely attack again, and there are stronger soldiers and horses than last time."
"Taishou, rest assured. With the presence of the handsome, he will be able to level the soil and valley and return the people to a happy land. โ
"The subordinates will return to the marshal and say goodbye."
Under the watchful eyes of the Taishou, the two pro-soldiers turned over and mounted their horses.
"Great marshal, deputy marshal. Fighting resumes ahead. โ
"Tugu Hun came to attack the former remnants, and the leader of the army escaped."
"Taishou deduces that there will be a large army attacking Tuguhun, and he is gathering all the troops of Lanzhou City to support."
Two pro-soldiers, reported according to the truth.
"Immediately inform the Taishou, and you must not empty Lanzhou City."
"Just send someone to lead the way for the army, and tonight the brothers will work hard and rush to the battle line overnight."
Lin Ran opened his mouth and said.
"It's the lieutenant."
The two pro-soldiers returned to Taishou Mansion again.
Taishou sent one person who was familiar with the battle and route ahead, and went with the two personal soldiers.
Led by the local garrison.
The army reached the front line overnight.
The next day dawned.
"General, that's the army of the imperial court."
"Su Ziqi, the general is General Su who has come to support us."
The soldier cheered happily.
"It's General Su who is here..."
The general who led the troops immediately mounted his horse and went to meet him.
"The last general, meet General Su."
"In the last battle, the last general suffered one hundred and twenty-four casualties, and he did not let Tuguhun succeed in his attack."
The general dismounted.
"The brothers are suffering, and Ben Shuai is late."
So the army dismounted and rested, and set up camp.
The soldiers guarding the front hurried to light a fire and cook for the army.
After a break.
The army finally slept soundly.
At this time, more than ten people sent by the county were local villagers who were familiar with the surrounding terrain of Tuguhun.
was also brought to Su Dingfang and Lin Ran.
These fellows were instructed by Lin Ran to be found by the local county.
"Huaiyu, see the tiger, you two will outflank you from the north with 10,000 soldiers with your fellow countrymen."
"Bereavement, Baolin, you two will outflank you from the south with 10,000 soldiers with your fellow countrymen."
"Duhe, fulfill, you two take 10,000 soldiers to guard the canyon ahead. No living person shall be allowed to escape from the canyon. โ
"The army set off immediately, and instead of waiting for the rabbit, it is better to take the initiative."
Lin Ran drew a picture on the ground in the camp tent and commanded.
The brothers were amazed at how this little tenth brother understood the geographical structure of this neighborhood and Tuguhun.
They knew that in the later generations, Lin Ran had traveled to this place.
"This was originally my Datang land, and now it's time to get it back."
Everyone was ordered one after another, and each led his army to march.
"Big brother, we are approaching the Tuguhun Palace, and we vow to take down Murong Fuyun's head and sacrifice it to Your Majesty."
"Comfort the souls of the people and soldiers..."
Hearing Lin Ran's words, the eldest brother Su Dingfang's blood boiled.
"Okay, the army is attacking."
"Those who offend my Chinese will be punished even if they are far away."
"Those who offend my Chinese will be punished even if they are far away."
With Lin Ran's shout, all the soldiers echoed loudly.
The officers and soldiers of the Tang Army guarding the front line saw that the army was pulling out the earth valley.
They cheered happily.
Today, there is no need to be afraid of the battle.
They decided to stay and wait for news of the triumph of the Great Army.
In front of the Lin Mansion.
Guoguo and Houhou carried a small bench and sat in front of the door.
How many days have my brother been gone, and the two children count on their fingers every day.
Together, they looked in the direction of the north.
Because my brother said that he went to the north to fight the bad guys.
Will definitely come back from the north.
"Guoguo, Houhou, you two haven't gone to play with the pheasant slave for a long time."
"The pheasant slave is coming for you two."
Led by the chamberlain, the pheasant slave came to Guoguo and Houhou's side.
"Pheasant slave, Guoguo and Houhou are waiting for their brother to come back."
"Pheasant slave, Guoguo misses my brother, I miss it very much..."
The little girl burst into tears.
Let the pheasant slave panic for a while.
"Guoguo, Guoguo doesn't cry..."
Changle walked quickly and hugged Guoguo in his arms, since Lin Ran left.
Changle no longer had the intention of going to school, and His Majesty Li Er and Empress Changsun knew that this child was bitter, and they did not urge her to go to the academy.
"Sister, why hasn't my brother come back yet? Why haven't you come back yet? โ
Guoguo cried into tears in Changle's arms.
"My brother will definitely come back, and my brother will be very distressed if he knows that Guoguo is crying like this."
"Guoguo doesn't want my brother's heart to ache, does he?"
When Changle said this, his heart was in great pain.
"Well, Guoguo doesn't cry, Guoguo doesn't want to make his brother's heart ache."
Guoguo reached out and wiped the tears from her face.
"My sister is also here to accompany Guoguo and wait for my brother, shall we wait together?"
"Okay, let's wait..."
Guoguo and Houhou clapped their little hands together and said.
In this way, the three of them would carry a small bench every day and sit at the door of the Lin Mansion waiting for one person to return.
His Majesty Li Er and Empress Changsun, who learned of this, were relatively speechless.
"General, over this mountain, through that canyon, there is the territory of the Tang Dynasty in front of you."
When the general sent by Murong Fuyun heard this, he immediately ordered to speed up the march.
They worked the rugged roads in the mountains.
This is a sheep intestine path stepped out of the war horse.
The snow on the summit of the mountain does not melt all year round.
I have to sigh at the miracle of the Creator.
This towering mountain was magically split a crack in the middle.
To enter the Tang Dynasty, you must climb over the crack halfway up the mountain.
"Great marshal, deputy marshal. Enemy troops were spotted ahead. โ
"They're coming up the mountainside, and it's estimated that there are tens of thousands of them."
The pioneer of the pathfinder came in a hurry.
"Immediately guard the lower sides of the mountainside, we will wait for the rabbit this time, and wait for work."
At this time, the army was close to the mountainside.
Soon, the army was in formation.
Sit back and wait for the arrival of the Tuguhun army.
Because there are no rolling stones on this mountainside.
Otherwise, Lin Ran would definitely let the soldiers directly use the rolling stone to send them to the Western Heavens.
"General, do you want to rest and recuperate in the middle of the mountain?"
The soldiers led General Ma's horse and asked.
"There's no need to rest, bring back the food early, and make the king happy and happy early."
"This time, we must slaughter all the Tang soldiers who take care of the food to Lao Tzu."
The general spoke.
"General, don't worry, they still have an hour to live."
"No, at most half an hour's life."
"Just bring back a few girls for the general to play..."
The pro-soldier replied flatteringly.
"Okay, it's still your kid who is sensible and understands the mind of this general."
The sound of the general's laughter echoed halfway up the mountain.
When Lin Ran and Su Dingfang heard this, they gritted their teeth in anger.
"Holy shit, Lao Tzu will send you brutes to Hades first."
Lin Ran ran halfway up the mountain and shot arrows with a bow.
'Whoosh...
The arrows went straight for General Toya Hun on horseback.
Impartiality is right on the chest of the general.
This is a poisoned arrow that has been processed by Lin Ran.
The general rolled over and fell off his horse.
The entire Tuguhun soldiers were in disarray.
Before the Tuguhun soldiers could react.
Su Dingfang led the army to shoot his horse and kill it.
"Kill... Kill..."
The soldiers brandished horizontal knives and swept in a sea of mountains.
"It's Tang Jun, Tang Jun is coming... Brothers, run..."
It was a landslide victory.
But all the Tuguhun soldiers who climbed to the halfway point of the mountain were spared.
All of them went to accompany the Lord of Yama to fight the landlord.
As for whether they will fight the landlords, these are not questions.
The soldiers at the very end of Tugu Hun saw the heads of their brothers halfway up the mountain, dancing in the air one after another.
It has long been scared of the dog's guts.
Then he turned and spread his feet and ran down the mountain.
The one who runs is called a fast one.
Rabbits blush when they see them.
"Big brother, I'm sorry, the tenth brother didn't hold back just now."
"Got them to run away a lot."
Lin Ran sincerely apologized.
"Haha, haha, the little tenth brother is really a master of art and bold."
"Just now, I made my eldest brother sweat."
"That sentence scolded happily, it's too late for the eldest brother to be happy."
"Isn't it just a few stinky fish and rotten shrimp? The tenth brother is the credit for killing an enemy general. โ
Su Dingfang laughed happily.
After the army descended the mountain, it rested for a while.
Immediately, he continued to attack Tuguhun.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty... Big things are not good. โ
The soldiers who had fled came to the palace and started playing.
"What? The king's general was killed? โ
Murong Fuyun was furious when he heard this.
"What a waste, he didn't even walk to the land of Datang, and he died."
"Tell me how many people from the Tang Army came."
"Your Majesty, I don't know how many people there are for the little ones, but it's a blessing for the little ones to come back alive."
When Murong Fuyun heard this, he kicked the soldier away.
"Waste, it's all waste."
"Come on, immediately go to reconnoiter the enemy's situation, and be sure to find out the real strength of the other party."
The guards took the order and left.
The 20,000 army led by Su Dingfang and Lin Ran was overwhelming.
In ten days, they reached the city less than 100 miles away from the Tuguhun Palace.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Tang Army has arrived at the city less than a hundred miles from the palace."
"The Tang army has about 20,000 troops."
The soldiers hurriedly came to report.
"20,000 troops are also delusional to attack my Tuguhun, Li Shimin, you underestimate this king too much."
"Send the order down, immediately gather Ben Wan's 60,000 troops, and destroy the Tang army outside the palace in one fell swoop."
"This king is going to go into battle himself..."
Murong Fuyun ordered in a high-spirited manner.
Sixty thousand versus twenty thousand, it's not too easy.
No wonder he went into battle in person.
Wouldn't it be a pity to miss out on such a good show?
"Great marshal, deputy marshal. Tuguhun gathered an army of 60,000 and sat outside the palace. โ
The vanguard reported respectfully.
"Little Tenth Brother, I didn't expect that Tuguhun actually had an army of 60,000, what do you think of this battle?"
"Big brother, the victory or defeat is here, it depends on Huaiyu, Jianhu, Baolin, and whether they are ready to bequeath."
"Wait until a few of them send a message."
So the army stopped its advance and encamped in its place.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty. The Don army stopped the offensive. โ
"They have set up camp in the same place."
Hear the report of the pro-soldiers.
Murong Fuyun laughed.
"You must be scared, haha, how can this king's army of 60,000 be jealous."
"20,000 people dare to come and provoke this king, and this king will let you have no return."
"Pass the order, rest in place, and in two days, this king will take you to attack the Tang army."
Huaiyu and Jianhu, as well as Baolin and Yiai, led an army of 10,000 respectively.
Under the leadership of the fellow countryman, he trekked through mountains and rivers, and finally arrived at the left and right sides of the Tuguhun Kingdom.
See the dense army of 60,000 people outside the royal palace.
The two teams sent their own people to report to the main force.
After Su Dingfang and Lin Ran got the news, they were ecstatic.
Tell the two messengers to be ready to fight at night when they return.
"Today, we must let the soldiers rest well, the soldiers are very tired after a long journey."
"Take Tuguhun in one fell swoop tonight, let the soldiers celebrate."
Before leaving, Lin Ran solemnly explained to the two messengers.
As soon as it got dark, the army slept all afternoon.
Immediately pull out the camp and march.
When they arrived at the gate of the castle gate of the Tuguhun Palace.
The sound of clattering horses' hooves woke up the sleeping Tugu Hun army.
At a time when they are not ready.
The army struck the horse.
An army of 20,000 fought bravely to be the first.
Gain an absolute advantage in advance.
However, as the awakened Tutani Hun army joined the battle.
The scene became tragic.
Just when the Tutani Hun army thought that they could turn defeat into victory.
A large number of Don troops appeared on the left and right sides.
Surround them around.
In front is the Don Army.
In the rear is the royal palace.
On the left and right flanks were also the Don Army.
If you can't hold this place, Tuguhun will be completely destroyed.
But how do they hold on?
What to keep?
The three armies converged, and the morale was greatly boosted.
The heads of the soldiers of Toya Hun flew in the air and rolled on the ground.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty... Big things are not good. โ
"The Tang army is attacking."
Murong Fu Yunzheng and the princess slept soundly on the warm bed.
Hearing this, he immediately got up in fright.
He looked tremblingly at the torches in the distance.
Listen to the sound of fighting outside the palace, and the sound of sorrow.
"Old Ancestor, Fu Yun is ashamed of his ancestors."
"The foundation of more than 300 years is about to be destroyed in the hands of Fu Yun."
"It's over, it's all over, Fu Yun shouldn't provoke Datang..."
Knowing this time, the last king of Tuguhun suddenly woke up.
It's a pity that it's too late to regret it.
"This king is willing to submit to the Tang Dynasty and obey the orders of the Heavenly Khan from now on."
"As long as you give this king a way to live, this king will promise you everything..."
After the Great War.
Murong Fuyun knelt down in front of Su Dingfang and Lin Ran, and assured with bitter tears.
"This is our territory, and it is already God's mercy to you that you can occupy it for so many years."
"You still have bad intentions, plundering and killing my Tang people and soldiers, you died yourself, no wonder others."
Lin Ran's hand rose and fell.
Murong Fuyun ended his life.
Lin Ran didn't want Datang to raise a white-eyed wolf again.
Verbal submission is always no different from fart.
To be merciful to one's enemies is to be cruel to oneself.
After the army celebrated its victory, it was left to control Tuguhun.
"Huaiyu, Baolin, see the tiger, leave love... Would you like to stay and take care of Tuguhun for the time being? โ
In the camp, Lin Ran looked at his sworn brothers and asked.
"Father, let me listen to your arrangement."
Several people replied in unison.
Lin Ran nodded with satisfaction.
Tuguhun was wiped out, but the huge land needed to be managed by the Tang Army.
Long before he came, he had his own plans.
Seeing that several of his brothers nodded in agreement.
Lin Ran laughed happily.
"Sister, Guoguo dreamed of my brother last night."
"My brother is back, and my brother is holding Guoguo high..."
"Guoguo woke up laughing happily..."
In front of the Lin Mansion, Guoguo snuggled in Changle's arms and happily talked about his dreams.
Changle stroked Guoguo's back distressedly.
Didn't I dream every night that he was back?
But, my dearest ones.
Why didn't you bring even the slightest message after you left?
Guoguo's weather today is not very hot.
Shall we go to the North City Gate and wait for my brother?
"Okay..."
Guoguo and Houhou agreed in unison.
So Changle hugged Guoguo and held hands thickly.
The three of them walked along Suzaku Avenue to the North City Gate.
A war horse galloped in.
"Battle report, war report, the army returned triumphantly."
"King Tugu Hun was beheaded by the deputy marshal ยทยทยทยทยทยท"
The war horse went straight to the palace.
"Guoguo, my brother is really back..."
"He's killed the biggest bad guy, he's a hero."
Changle's tears of joy could no longer stop pouring out.
"Brother, it's amazing. My brother is a hero of the world. โ
Guoguo and Houhou shouted in unison.
Taiji Palace, Xiande Palace.
His Majesty Li Er and the ministers are deliberating.
"Your Majesty, the army has returned in triumph."
"King Tugu Hun was killed by the deputy marshal..."
A voice rang out from outside the temple.
His Majesty Li Er and the ministers stood up one after another.
For them, this is undoubtedly the sound of heaven.
It's the best sound in the world.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty."
"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty."
After the ministers were shocked, they respectfully congratulated them.
"Your Majesty, the army is still fifty miles away from the North City Gate, and it will arrive in Chang'an at noon today."
"I promised the soldiers that when they return triumphantly, they will go out of the city ten miles to meet them, and I will definitely do it."
"All Aiqing, follow me to greet the triumphant sons."
"Mother, mother. My brother is back, my brother is back after defeating the big bad guy..."
Guoguo's words, let Sun hug Guoguo tightly.
Her son finally returned safely.
Finally back, I no longer have to live in fear every day.
In the Lizheng Palace, Changle rushed in like a wind.
Rushed into the arms of the eldest grandson queen at once.
"The queen mother is back. He's back, he's slew King Tutani..."
Changle snuggled in the arms of Empress Changsun, his eyes were tears of joy.
"Good boy, don't worry now, look at how thin you have been these days?"
"Hurry up and eat a big meal to replenish your body."
"Otherwise, that kid, I'll feel distressed when I see it."
Hearing the words of the queen mother, Changle stood up happily.
"Queen Mother, Erchen will go to have a big meal, otherwise the son will see that Changle has lost weight."
After speaking, Changle happily took Cuizhu back to the palace.
There were too many delicacies in the palace that Lin Ran had prepared for her when she left.
These days, she is not willing to eat a bite.
She was afraid of the boy, and that was the last thought left for her.
But all this is a thing of the past.
What he promised was finally fulfilled.
He finally came back alive.
The crown prince Li Chengqian and the king of Wei Li Tai and the king of Han Li Ke.
After hearing the news, they cheered.
Even Li Zhi, the king of Jin, spread his feet and ran to the Lizheng Palace.
"Queen Mother, the pheasant slave is so happy."
Empress Eldest Sun reached out and hugged the pheasant slave in her arms.
"Why is the pheasant so happy?"
"Queen Mother, because Guoguo's brother is back."
"My brother is back, so Guoguo doesn't have to sit at the door every day and wait for my brother."
"Then she'll play with the pheasant slave..."
His Majesty Li Er led hundreds of civil and military officials to meet him ten miles out of the city.
"See Your Majesty, See Your Majesty."
Su Dingfang and Lin Ran.
Lead the army to pay homage and salute.
"It's good to come back, it's good to come back."
His Majesty Li Er said excitedly.
"Your Majesty killed more than 70,000 enemy troops in this battle, and all enemy troops were annihilated."
"Millions of gold, silver, and money, 100 boxes of jewelry, 100 boxes of jade, 10,000 war horses, and tens of thousands of weapons and armor were seizedยทยทยทยทยทยท"
"The land that originally belonged to Datang has returned."
Lin Ran's last sentence is the key point and the highlight.
"Well, the land that originally belonged to Datang has returned. I'm so relieved..."
His Majesty Li Er's face bloomed with a smile.
"Reward, all reward. Regardless of the size of the military merits, all meritorious deeds will be rewarded. โ
"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty."
The army thanked in unison.
"Shang Shulang, why didn't the beloved come back with the army?"
"And Paulin..."
"I didn't see the tiger either..."
"What about the Huaiyu people?"
Prime Minister Fang Xuanling, Left Wuhou General Wei Chi Jingde, Right Wuhou General Niu Jinda, Right Wuwei General Qin Qiong's words.
His Majesty Li Er couldn't help but get nervous.
If these children are all killed on the battlefield.
Then the price to pay for this big victory and triumph is too great.
And the tiger is the only seedling of the old cow.
Once something goes wrong, the old cow's current body is on board, and it will be out of business.
It's no wonder that a few of them didn't eat Lin Ran alive.
"Don't worry about a few uncles, a few of them are fine."
"The army has won a complete victory, and Tuguhun is unmanaged."
"The juniors let them stay and lead their soldiers to temporarily manage Tuguhun."
When a few people heard this, they put down the stone in their hearts.
Especially Lao Niu, he is ready to fight hard with Lin Ran.
The clenched fist also loosened.
For Lin Ran's decision, His Majesty Li Er was very satisfied.
Only fight down and don't send people to manage.
After a while, that place will not become someone else's territory again?
"Aiqing arranged it very well, and it was very kind."
"Today, the palace drank and celebrated the achievements of the soldiers."
"Your Majesty, Weichen wants to take a step forward, please allow Your Majesty."
Lin Ran blinked.
An expression you know.
made Li Er eager to beat him on the spot.
Aren't you kid the Changle who thinks about me?
But for Changle's sake, he also thinks about him every day.
Let's write it down first.
Save the long joy and cry and cry.
"Since Aiqing misses her family, she misses her family very much."
"I also understand very well, so Aiqing will take the first step."
His Majesty Li Er gave Lin Ran a look that you also understand.
Lin Ran happily gave His Majesty a salute and said goodbye.
Turned over and went straight to Chang'an City.
"Brother, brother..."
"Brother, brother..."
Guoguo and Houhou put down the small bench and ran towards Lin Ran with cheers.
This time, Lin Ran was not biased.
One left and one right hugged Guoguo and Houhou.
This feeling of happiness coming too suddenly.
Let Hou Hou almost cry out loud.
But when I think about it, what my brother said.
The crying child is not a man, and he held back his tears.
"Let's go home."
Lin Ran went home with her two children in her arms.
"Home, home..."
Guoguo and the thick voice had already made Sun and Lin Zhengtai walk out of the door.
"The son kowtows to his father and his mother."
"The son Lin Ran is back, so that the father and mother are worried that it is the son's fault."
Lin Ran put down the fruit and thick.
Solemnly kowtow in front of his parents.
"It's good to come back, it's good to come back..."
Sun wiped tears of joy.
Lin Zhengtai also had red eyes.
After reassuring the family, Lin Ran walked to the palace.
There was also a man he had in mind.
There was also a person who rode a horse for more than 100 miles, just to tell him a word.
