On the official road from Chengdu to Jianzhou, more than 200,000 people are evacuating southward, large and small ox carts and walking teams are mixed together, and the crowd is out of sight, there are ordinary people, officials and their families, and thousands of eunuchs and palace maids, who follow on foot a dozen wide carriages, in which are the queen mother and the three-year-old young emperor, and hundreds of carts full of cages.

Of course, Ju Wenzhen and other eunuchs from the north were also in the ranks, followed by the palace team, they were not many in number, but there were a lot of carts full of property, there were thousands, all of which were the belongings they had collected for many years, including the money that was originally stored in the cabinet shop, was also taken out and carried south.

These ox carts alone account for half of the entire cart fleet, and of course there are carts carrying grain and grass supplies, full of grain and other materials.

20,000 soldiers of the Shence Army are guarding the team on both sides, at present, there are still 30,000 people in the Shence Army controlled by the Beiya, in addition to the 20,000 troops who follow the south, there are 8,000 people in Jianmen Pass, and another 3,000 pioneers have already taken the lead.

They were ready to retreat to Yuzhou first to avoid the Tubo army, the eunuch's way of thinking was not the same as that of normal people, if it was a normal imperial court, it must be to gather all kinds of troops to come to King Qin to resist the invasion of the Tubo people.

But the eunuchs didn't think so, Ju Wenzhen, Huo Xianming and Dou Wenchang agreed that the Tubo people only wanted money, food and population, and would not be interested in land, so let them plunder, and when the looting was over, they would naturally return with a full load, and they would come back.

As for the tens of thousands of people or hundreds of thousands of people who will be taken captive by the Tibetans, they will not be sad at all, they are afraid that they will not care about the life and death of anyone except themselves, and they will not consider the safety of the society and the interests of the people in the world except their own interests.

At this time, a general of the Shence Army rushed to the front of Ju Wenzhen's carriage, hugged his fists and said: "Qi Qi Ju Gong, Immortal Weng let the humble post tell Ju Gong, Tubo is less than fifty miles away from Chengdu, and we are only more than a hundred miles away, and we will catch up soon, Xian Weng and Dou Weng mean, don't care about the people for the time being, we have to speed up and go south." ”

Ju Wenzhen was also a little scared, and nodded again and again, "I agree to speed up, others can keep up with it, and if they can't keep up, they can do whatever they want." ”

The transport team and the palace team sped up, the eunuchs and palace ladies also got on the transport carts, and the army began to trot, gradually breaking away from the people and officials behind them.

The people behind immediately panicked, the officials and their families had a big car and were a little better, barely able to keep up, but more than 200,000 ordinary people couldn't keep up, they seemed to be abandoned, and the crying along the way was shocking and miserable.

.........

On the morning of the third day, 20,000 Tubo troops finally arrived at the city of Chengdu, and all those who could run in the city ran away, and the remaining hundreds of thousands of people who could not run away could only resign themselves to fate.

As the eunuchs expected, the Tubo army was well aware of the weaknesses of Chengdu's city defense, and they took the lead in breaking through the palace from the Forbidden Garden, and there were only dozens of old eunuchs guarding the palace left in the palace, and the treasury was already empty, except for some large items such as Buddha statues and bronze figures that were not taken away, other wealth was carried away.

The Tibetan army did not grab property and grain in the palace, but found a large amount of grain and pig iron, copper ingots and other strategic materials that were difficult to transport away in the official warehouses and official warehouses of the Northern Ya.

Shang Dongzan, surrounded by thousands of cavalry, rode slowly through the streets, and he himself could not have imagined. It was a pity that it was able to occupy the capital of the Tang Dynasty in one fell swoop, although it was not Chang'an, but it was the capital after all.

If Zampu can come here to make his rounds, he will be able to rise one step further, and once his brother steps down from the position of prime minister, it will be time for him to take over.

The more Shang Dongzan thought about it, the more proud he became, and at this time, the adjutant general said in a low voice: "The generals want to let go and grab a handful, and the general feels ......."

"Nonsense!"

Shang Dongzan's eyes widened, "This is the capital, can it be destroyed at will?" ”

On Duo Sang didn't dare to say anything, perhaps because he felt that his tone was too heavy, Shang Dongzan explained in a gentle tone: "It's not that I don't let them loot Chengdu, the main thing is that Zampu is likely to tour eastward, he must want to see a complete enemy capital, not a capital city that has been looted by soldiers, and he can't rob some property, rest for two days, let's go south to Meizhou or Jianzhou, and the brothers can grab enough!" ”

When Duosang heard that Zampu would come, he immediately dispelled the idea of looting Chengdu, and hurriedly bowed and said: "The general's hard work, I understand my humble duties!" ”

At this time, a cavalryman galloped over and saluted Shang Dongzan, "General Qiyu, the Great Minister has sent a messenger!" ”

Shang Dongzan did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly returned to the palace, and after a short time, a Tibetan official was brought to see him, this official was called Dorjee, and he was the chief official under the account of the great minister Shang Jiezan.

"Congratulations to General Shang for taking Chengdu and making outstanding contributions!"

"Thank you Brother Duoji for your compliment, it was really a fluke to win Chengdu this time, and I really didn't expect the other party to abandon the city and flee."

"The other party is a eunuch, it is normal to abandon the city and flee, and the prime minister also expected it."

Shang Dongzan hurriedly asked, "What did the prime minister say?" ”

Dorjee said: "The prime minister asked me to tell the general that Chang'an is very likely to send troops to Bashu, and the general cannot easily go south." ”

Shang Dongzan was taken aback, "Guo Song will send troops to Bashu?" ”

"That's what the prime minister said, the prime minister said, Guo Song has been planning Bashu for a long time, and he will never give it to us, the real battle for Bashu has not yet come, and the prime minister hopes to take Yazhou City as the foundation, and Guo Song will compete for Bashu, don't care about the temporary gains and losses of Chengdu."

Shang Dongzan understands the meaning of the great minister, the city of Yazhou is tall and strong, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is convenient for the Tubo army to come over, it is indeed a very good logistics center, although Chengdu is the capital, but there is a huge loophole in the palace, no one can defend it.

He pondered for a moment and said, "I understand what Daxiang meant, and I will send the supplies and food to Yazhou immediately." ”

Shang Dongzan temporarily put aside the idea of chasing and killing the Southern Tang team, on the one hand, he organized chariots and horses to transport a large amount of food and materials to Yazhou City, on the other hand, he sent spies north to find out the enemy's intelligence, as long as the Jin army entered Bashu, he would know immediately.

On the streets of Chengdu, the Tibetan army began to arrest young men from house to house, and they needed a large number of young and strong laborers to carry supplies to Yazhou.

Zhou Fei and other eighty subordinates lived in the Ping'an Inn in the south of the city, the shopkeeper Gao Xiuying took a few guys south, there was only one guy in the store, a local, surnamed Ma, everyone called him Xiaoma, Xiaoma hurriedly ran to the backyard, found Zhou Fei and said: "General Zhou, the Tubo army has begun to catch strong men all over the city." ”

Zhou Fei was stunned and asked, "What are you doing to catch a strong man?" ”

"It seems that they want to carry supplies to Yazhou for them, they said so."

Zhou Fei got up and said with a smile: "I still want to go to Yazhou, and I'm afraid that they will be suspicious, isn't this the opportunity coming?" ”

"But when eighty young and strong men are gathered together, they will also be suspicious, so it is better to disperse."

Zhou Fei didn't want to be separated from his subordinates, so he asked in a deep voice, "Are there any laborers gathered together?" ”

A word reminded the pony, and he rolled his eyes and said, "There is a way, you can dress up as dock porters, they are dressed in black short clothes, black cloth belts around their waists, and they hold a very thick flat pole in their hands, and there is a dock worker distribution center in front of them, and you are squatting there." ”

Black clothes are easy to change, Zhou Fei turned the short clothes over and wore them, they were black clothes, the same is true of the black cloth belt, and the cloth belt around the waist is also black.

"What if it's just a flat shoulder?"

"There is a flat burden!"

The guy pony hurriedly said: "We have a lot of utility rooms, more than a hundred!" It's a guest who forgets. ”

Zhou Fei thought of another point, hesitated and said: "Our accent is wrong, we don't know anything here, we will show our feet if we ask a few more words, why don't you go with us!" ”

Although they are not a system, Zhou Fei is a general after all, and his position is much higher than that of Xiaoma, since Zhou Fei made a request, Xiaoma did not dare to disobey, he nodded and agreed.

After a short time, eighty black-clad scouts led by Zhou Fei left the inn from behind, and they ran to the labor distribution center near the Chenghuang Temple under the guidance of their men and horses.

There are a large number of laborers sitting here every day waiting to be hired, and the number of digital pickers is the most, but now it is empty, so the laborers have escaped.

Everyone sat there in groups of three or five, and it was really like the same thing.

After a while, a large group of Tibetan soldiers came and found that there were a large group of young laborers here, they were overjoyed, and hurriedly rushed forward to order them to gather, it turned out that Zhou Fei thought too much, and the Tubo people did not suspect them at all, and it didn't matter where they were from, let alone the accent or anything, as long as they were strong and could carry food and supplies.

Eighty scouts were successfully captured by the Tibetan soldiers and taken to the grain depot to carry grain, and the Tubo people forcibly recruited more than 5,000 young men and more than 1,000 ox carts.

Looking for a loophole, Zhou Fei whispered to his buddy pony: "On the way at night, we will cover your escape, you go to Jianmen Pass and tell His Royal Highness the King of Jin that I will take my brothers to Yazhou City, and I will lurk in Yazhou City." ”

Pony nodded, "I'll find the main army!" ”
