Chapter 5 Give a big gift
Shang Tsangpo, who was summoned by Si Mo Lang, had a little resistance in her heart. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
It is true that Xi Mo Lang is a general of Tubo, but he has not been promoted because of his stubborn character, and he is still a commander with great military achievements, and his status is equivalent to that of Shang Zanpo.
In order to deal with Pei Min of the Tang Dynasty, Xi Mo Lang was promoted to marshal, and suddenly climbed on the head of his Shang Zanpo, and became the supreme military commander of Jiuqu Land in Hexi.
For Si Mo Lang, a veteran who has not had much contact, Shang Zanpo did not have much respect, but had a trace of disdain.
This is a gap in temperament, Shang Tsampa is good at running, bold and daring to fight with soldiers, while Si Mo Lang is good at guarding, dull and steady, like a sword and shield, difficult to blend.
In Shang Tsam Po's eyes, offense is the best tactic, and defense is just a self-trapped situation.
However, when Si Mo Lang took office for the first time and held a military meeting for the first time, Shang Zanpo didn't want to make too much trouble with him, the new boss, so he responded: "Go back and tell the marshal, I will come immediately after arranging the protection of Iron Blade City." ”
When Shang Zanpo arrived in Guinan County, most of the generals above the commander of the other places had arrived.
Si Mo Lang also showed his capable style as a veteran, and convened a military meeting without any delay.
The main purpose of this military meeting was not to discuss how to deal with the Tang army, but to get to know the generals, so that when the war came, no one would know anyone.
After all, they are on the defensive side, with a strategic advantage and tactical passivity.
The Tang army did not make a move, and they were not easy to move.
More than 20 Tibetan generals and colonels surrounded the current situation, and there was not a word to say.
The morale of the generals was not very high, and it was an indisputable fact that the Tubo had suffered repeated setbacks and greatly reduced the dominance of the Tibetan Jiuqu of the West River.
Si Mo Lang also noticed this, and encouraged him skillfully, saying: "The Han people are actually not as powerful as you think, and Pei Min's hairy boy is not so magical. The eagle has injured its wings, and it is not as good as the hyena underground, let alone our Tibetan warriors? Did you find that Pei Min was on the defensive in the three decisive battles. Jincheng offensive and defensive battle, he has Jincheng danger, Taozhou battle, in their territory, we are in a passive position. The same was true of the battle of Guangen Town. In the case of dominance, it is not much ability to win. Now we are the Lord, they are the guests, and it is not too easy to remember the guests with the Lord. ”
As soon as Xi Molang's voice fell, a confidant immediately chimed in: "I, Tibet, have been at war with the Tang Dynasty for a hundred years, but I have lost an inch of land?" ”
When the generals thought about it, the atmosphere suddenly rose.
This is not bragging, the record of Datang and Tubo, in general, is dominated by Datang, but altitude sickness has not been effectively overcome, and Datang has not yet attacked the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in a real sense. The only most promising time was when Xue Rengui sent troops to Qinghai in the first year of Xianheng. Xue Rengui fought all the way to the estuary, but because of the jealousy and hatred of his pig teammates, he caused the Tubo military god to seize the flaw and cut off the back road, that is, the Dafeichuan fiasco.
In addition, the Tang Dynasty has tried many times to take advantage of the victory to destroy Tubo, but the result is that due to the plateau climate, it has collapsed and sunk into the sand.
"The marshal is right, our Tubo warriors are no more despicable than the cunning Tang people, they are afraid of death, so they have towering city walls. Without the city wall, our warriors would have been killed in Chang'an. ”
'Now the position has changed, we defend. Or is it that we are good at field warfare, with the mule and horse cavalry of the Tang people, how can we be compared with our assault cavalry? ”
"A little kid who can defeat our people who grew up on horseback on the steppe? Pipe dream! The one who said this was obviously Tuyuhun's general.
Generals, you say a word, I say a word.
The inferiority of human beings is the same, as long as there is an excuse and reason, there is no need for anyone to teach the blame.
This situation also made the Tibetan generals regain their confidence, and they were all arrogant, no longer dull before.
Shang Zanpo didn't participate in it, but just glanced at Xi Molang, and praised him in his heart for his clever methods, not to mention stabilizing the army's morale in a short period of time, and unconsciously making the generals have a good impression of him.
Si Mo Lang also made a final summary and said: "According to my estimate, the Tang army will not send a large army to fight, nor will it fight a protracted war with us. The soldiers they were able to mobilize were mainly the Shence Army and the Longyou Army, supplemented by the Liangzhou Army. The number should be between fifty and sixty thousand, and we are about the same number. I need the support of all of you to let Datang Xiao'er know whether Hexi Jiuqudi is surnamed Tubo or Tang. ”
"I would like to be sent by the marshal!" The generals shouted in unison with high morale.
Si Mo Lang looked at the generals who were fighting with chicken blood, and nodded with satisfaction, the effect of today's meeting was much better than he thought.
Just when Simo Langzhi was complacent, he was less than a hundred miles away from the place where they were meeting.
A Tang army has slaughtered a Tibetan herd!
Pei Min learned from Murong Ying that Xi Mo Lang was holding a meeting today, and temporarily decided to give the new Tubo Marshal Xi Mo Lang a big gift.
He quietly walked out of Guang'en Town, and circled around to the nearest herd.
"Kill !!"
Pei Min and Li Yide each led 1,500 people and killed the Tubo herd from the left and right flanks respectively.
This is a medium-sized herd, guarded by 3,000 soldiers, and the Tubo people are brave and good at fighting, even if the people are on horses and carry knives, they are also excellent warriors, and their strength is not weak.
But Pei Min and the others were taken by surprise, and because of the generals and colonels above the commander of a thousand commanders, Tubo lacked effective command, and the resistance reaction was half a beat slower.
In particular, Li Yide was very brave, and he killed the only general who could control the scene in the first shot, made a good start, and led his subordinates to enter the Tubo camp in one go.
Pei Min talked about martial arts far above Li Yide, but compared to Xiaoyong, it was far inferior. However, he is better than the fierce eyes, the overall situation is very strong, Xue Ne in the early years did not teach him the skills of commanding in battle, specifically picking the weak places of Tibet, there are signs of resistance in the place of surprise killing, the chaotic Tubo army to kill even more chaos, will have resistance contained in the cradle.
The Qin Emperor's sword lightly swept through the neck of a Tibetan cavalryman, and when the men and horses were staggered, he saw that the entire camp was in flames, and the Tibetan men, women, and children had lost the desire to resist, and fled in all directions, and gave Li Yide a flag for him to come and meet him.
"Pei Shuai!" Li Yide's body was full of blood, and it seemed that the killing was a little unpleasant, and said, "It's over?" ”
"It's over today!" Pei Min seriously corrected Li Yide's words and said: "In this guerrilla warfare, it is the key to reap what you see, and if you are too greedy, you will suffer." Guo Wenbin ......," he cried, "go and gather all the herdsmen together, give them horses, and let them retreat with us!" ”
"As for us!" Pei Min smiled yin and said: "All the soldiers listen to the order, kill the sheep when they see them, slaughter the cattle when they encounter them, divide the cattle and sheep and bring them back, and open meat for the brothers at night!" ”
