Ten days later, Qin Mubai led his army to the Dafeichuan military camp. /**!。 * Here, he learned some information about the interior of Lanzhou, mainly about Su Dingfang.

It turned out that as early as more than a month ago, when Qin Mubai and Garqinling were fighting a life-and-death battle in the grassland of Pamoli, Su Dingfang had already led his army to the Western Regions.

Due to the official declaration of war between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo, and the northern grasslands are also in turmoil, the three major forces that had strong influence and deterrence over the Western Regions in the past, the Tang Dynasty, Tubo and Xue Yantuo, have no time to look westward. At this time, the Western Turkic Beiting, which had always been ambitious and powerful, felt that the time had come to unify the Western Regions. Therefore, he ordered the subordinate tribes of Ji Yue Lost, Ba Xi Mi, Barge Horse, Jie Gu, and Touch Mukun to send troops together, and took the famous general of Beiting who had returned from injury as the commander, entangled more than 300,000 soldiers and horses, and launched a fierce attack on the tooth tent of the old enemy, the Western Turkic South Court.

Beiting thought very carefully, if they could take advantage of the great opportunity when the Tang Dynasty and Tubo had no time to look westward to level Nanting in one fell swoop, then their unification of the Western Regions would be almost just around the corner.

In doing so, Beiting is to create an established fact of "unifying the Western Regions".

After the two countries of Tang and Tibet were defeated, they would definitely not be able to use troops against the Western Regions. At that time, the "North Garden" may no longer be the North Garden, but an independent and powerful Western Regions Khanate. At that time, no matter who won the victory between the Tang Dynasty and the Tibetans, they had to recognize the Beiting Khanate and could no longer get involved in the Western Regions.

It was difficult for Nanting to resist a powerful attack, and soon sent envoys to ask Datang for help. Due to the prior agreement, Nanting Khan directly sent a quick envoy to invite Su Dingfang and asked him to "preside over justice" on behalf of the Tang Dynasty and rescue the soldiers.

Su Dingfang fired at Yumen Pass, and in the name of Qin Mubai, he issued a "military order" to Hu Luwu, the leader of the Hu Lu Department, and asked him to send troops to rescue Nanting first, and Su Dingfang himself then waved his troops to arrive.

Hu Lubu was originally a "double-faced spy" who stepped on two boats and no one dared to offend. After receiving the order, although he also reorganized his troops and horses, he did not attack immediately, but watched from afar. If the South Court had been destroyed before Su Dingfang arrived, they would definitely not be stupid enough to deal with the North Court alone. On the contrary, he may take advantage of the fire to rob and put on a posture to help Beiting to beg for a reward in front of his master.

All this, before Qin Mubai left Yumen Pass, had already been discussed with Su Dingfang. Su Dingfang knew very well in his heart that Hu Lubu was not trustworthy at all. But he must be ordered to be ordered first. Never obey is his thing. If this military order is not issued, the Hu Lu Department will have an excuse to stand on the side of the North Court in advance. At that time, the situation will be even more unfavorable for the Tang Army and Nanting.

The war in the Western Regions is in full swing. The Western Turkic North and South Courts fought desperately every day, with countless casualties. At the same time, many other small countries and tribes in the Western Regions are also facing the problem of taking sides and making decisions. Forced by the strong military power of the North Court, many small countries and tribes took refuge in the North Court, and even the Shi Kingdom, Shi State, He State, Mu State, and Kang State, which had previously belonged to the South Court, all jumped back into the camp of the North Court.

The situation is precarious, which is quite unfavorable to Nanting. Under such circumstances, Su Dingfang immediately made a decision, and did not directly wave his troops to rescue Nanting, but personally led 20,000 elite soldiers from Guanxi to Gaochang to set up a stronghold, and then went directly to the Hulu Department at the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains to "ask for guilt".

When Su Dingfang went, he was almost single-handed.

Hu Luwu, who had always been undecided, saw that the Tang envoy who came in person was neither Qin Mubai nor Xue Rengui, and he was quite contemptuous at that time. In addition, this time Su Dingfang brought only more than 20,000 soldiers and horses, so the Hu chieftain secretly made up his mind to go to Beiting, and wanted to capture Su Dingfang as a "gift of apology" to Marshal Beiting.

At this time, Su Dingfang, who had been low-key and endured for several years and had been unknown, finally became a blockbuster.

In the tent of Hu Lubu's collar tooth, he personally slashed the messenger sent by Beiting with his sword! Then, with his outstanding eloquence, extraordinary courage and true sincerity, he fought against Hu Luwu and his generals.

In the end, Su Dingfang said to Hu Luwu that the Tang Dynasty had raised a total of 400,000 troops, and Qin Mubai, the marshal of the Guanxi Army, had personally waved his troops to attack Tubo, and Tubo would be pacified in a few days. When Marshal Qin returns to Helong, he will definitely come to clean up the mess in the Western Regions. At this time, if the Hulu tribe turns its back on the former alliance and takes refuge in the North Court, it will be a disaster of extermination in the future! On the contrary, if you help Datang at this time, it will be a great achievement. In the future, in terms of meritorious deeds, it is not an exaggeration to get the title of the king of the country!

Hu Luwu finally got moved and finally gave in. What made him succumb was not only Su Dingfang's personal charm and powerful rhetoric, but also the deep impression left on him by Xue Rengui's army before, as well as the "legend" of the young marshal Qin Mubai in the Western Regions.

At the beginning, Xue Rengui was only more than 10,000 soldiers and horses and was a tired division, killing nine in and nine out of his 80,000 army in Huluwu, and the combat effectiveness of the Guanxi Army still makes him feel terrified. Just imagine, Xue Rengui is just a general under Qin Mubai, if Qin Mubai personally waves his troops to attack, can the Hu Lu Department still survive in the world? Moreover, even the Tibetan Tomb of the Tibetan Hero Garqin was defeated by Qin Mubai repeatedly...... Compared with Tibet, what is Hulu as a tribe, and what is his Hulu house?

……

Two days later, Huluwu raised an army of 100,000 troops. The commander who belongs to Su Dingfang, the soldiers rescue Nanting!

Just when Nanting was about to be defeated and wiped out, Su Dingfang led more than 100,000 troops to kill. The two sides fought fiercely for several days in the upper reaches of the Baiyang River, with numerous casualties.

The final outcome of this tough battle was that Su Dingfang became famous in a battle and defeated the famous general of Beiting, and drove the enemy army for more than 300 miles, and chased all the way to the place where Beiting's tooth tent was located, to the west of the mountain.

If it weren't for Su Dingfang's thousands of miles of attack, people and horses, lack of horses and interruption of supplies, and the generals of Hulu and Nanting were worried that the division was too far away and the house would be difficult to defend and had to retreat, Su Dingfang almost wiped out Beiting in a battle, and it was completely troubled!

After this battle, Su Dingfang only relied on 20,000 Kwantan troops, plus 100,000 horses organized by using excellent diplomatic skills, to defeat more than 300,000 of the main force of Beiting in one fell swoop, which greatly damaged his vitality and collapsed - the Tang Dynasty in the Western Regions finally really bloomed with the first brilliance, and since then it has been powerful all over the world!

Su Dingfang is also destined to be famous all over the world!

Hearing such news, Qin Mubai was even happier and relieved than he had defeated the Garqin Mausoleum.

In the Kansai Army, a star that should be the most dazzling has finally risen strongly. From then on, Su Dingfang would be able to stand alone in the Western Regions - this was an excellent thing for the Tang Dynasty and for him Qin Mubai.

After thinking about it carefully, Qin Mubai wrote to Emperor Li Shimin, and was willing to ask the imperial court to reward Su Dingfang for his merits, and renamed him the protector of Anxi. Qin Mubai himself was willing to give up the position of the protector of the capital and continue to serve as the "governor of Lanzhou", sitting in the leadership of Helong.

Whether the imperial court will approve it or not, Qin Mubai doesn't know, and he doesn't really care. His purpose was mainly to "share the merits".

Unlike the "greed" of most people who are officials and generals, Qin Mubai has always been keen to share the credit with more people. First, you can avoid letting yourself be too sharp; Second, to fulfill others is to enrich oneself.

For example, today Su Dingfang became famous in the first battle, how could he forget Qin Mubai's support and care for him in the past?

It is often much more useful to have more powerful wings and loyal friends than to patronize yourself to increase your strength.

With a good mood, Qin Mubai finally returned to Shanzhou. When the people of Helong heard that Qin Mubai had returned triumphantly, they went out of the city for sixty miles to welcome him, cheering and singing colorful flags and gongs and drums all the way, and the lively and festive atmosphere reached the extreme.

Qin Mubai settled his soldiers and horses in the military camp outside the city, and then entered the city with Xue Rengui and other generals, and first went to the Provisional Governor's Mansion to visit Li Daozong, the king of Jiangxia, who was left behind.

It feels good to be home. Although they were tired to the extreme, Qin Mubai and the others talked and laughed happily all the way, and in a blink of an eye, they entered the city and arrived in front of the Governor's Mansion.

Even Yuwen Hongtai, who was seriously injured and was carried all the way over, was in a hurry to enter the house, but one person couldn't move forward.

"You go first, I'll go to the inn to rest by myself." Ashina Blood Lotus said to Qin Mubai.

As soon as Qin Mubai heard that something was wrong, he asked the others to enter the mansion first, invited the blood lotus aside and asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”

"Nothing, just don't want to go in. I don't like the buzz. Blood Lotus said lightly.

Qin Mubai blinked his eyes and thought, Blood Lotus's mood was a little low along the way. No matter how happy we were, she was indifferent, probably because she felt that none of these joys had anything to do with her, and that she was just an outsider.

Did I make her feel like she didn't feel a sense of belonging?

"Blood Lotus, I know what you're thinking." Qin Mubai held her hand and said softly, "Wait a few days, and we'll get married, okay?" ”

Blood Lotus was stunned for a moment, and turned her face away, "I won't marry." ”

"What?" Qin Mubai was also stunned, "You ...... It's almost a child's mother, why don't you still want to get married? ”

"No why, if you don't marry, you don't marry." Blood Lotus's face suddenly turned cold, glanced at Qin Mubai, and said, "Do you have to marry if you are pregnant with a child?" I can give birth to him and raise him myself. In the grassland, there are many children who only know their mothers but not their fathers. Don't use the customs of your Han people to restrain me. ”

"Uh......" Qin Mubai was stunned for a moment, "Then what do you want to do before you are willing to marry me?" ”

"Why, don't marry." Blood Lotus said quite resolutely, shook off Qin Mubai's hand and strode over, and turned around and said, "Don't chase after you!" - You know, I've always hated being forced to do anything! ”

Qin Mubai stood on the spot, a little overwhelmed for a while.

In the past and present lives, there are countless self-proclaimed veterans of the love field, but I didn't expect to eat such a big turtle here in Blood Lotus!

"Why is that?"

As he was muttering, a man walked behind him. Qin Mubai looked back and was immediately pleased, "Yan! ”

"You're back?" Chen Yan stepped forward with a slight smile, and Qin Mubai held her hand.

"Do you know why she's leaving?" Chen Yan pouted in the direction where Blood Lotus was walking.

"You saw it all?"

"What do you ask?"

"Uh......" Qin Mubai was stunned for a moment and shook his head, "This time, I really have no score in my heart." It may be that I treated her badly before! ”

"I think it's better to say that you don't respect her enough." Chen Yan said, "A woman, no matter whether she is noble or low, hopes that her man will pay attention to her. A man can have many women in his lifetime, but a woman can only marry one man. This is already unfair, you still talk about marriage so childishly, how can she be embarrassed? Originally, she was a noble princess of the prairie - you have to at least show a little sincerity! Also, she is always so nameless and undivided in various occasions with you, and she must be embarrassed in her heart. Although she comes from the steppe with simple customs, women are self-respecting. ”

"Hey, after all that, you say what should I do now!" Qin Mubai scratched his head, like a child who had been caught stealing, and sneered, "Actually...... I'm just drunk and confused, that ...... Accidentally made a little mistake. But at this point, I'm sure I'll have to admit it. The question is ......"

"Alright, don't say it. You can say this kind of unconscionable words! Chen Yan shook her head angrily and funny, and sighed, "You are always like this!" I'm sure I'll have to be scolded for a while - thief military academy, stinky man, you're so comfortable! ”

"Huh?! - Qin Mubai was stunned, "Princess Gaoyang is here in Shanzhou?" What about Mei Niang? ”

Mei Niang took her caravan to the Western Regions. Gao Yang and I couldn't stay idle in Lanzhou, so I came to Shanzhou with Mei Niang to wait for your class teacher to return triumphantly. Chen Yan said, "As for the details, you go back and learn slowly." Now I'm going to find Blood Lotus, hoping to persuade her to come back-don't smirk at me, I'm for the sake of getting acquainted with Blood Lotus and the Qin family's blood! Otherwise, even I want to scold you! ——Flowers and grass, dead nature does not change! ”
