Abandon Zonglang sighed in praise and said: "Qinling, the original soldier was treacherous, how to defeat the enemy, and what means to use are understandable. However, since we are determined to be in the world, we can't be obsessed with the gains and losses of the First World War, can we? ”

Garqinling's expression suddenly darkened a little, and he said in a low voice: "Please make it clear that at this moment, what does it have to do with the ambition of the world and the gains and losses of the First World War?" ”

"Qinling...... What do you want me to say? The abandonment of the sect stared at the Garqin Mausoleum with a sad face, was silent for a moment, and said, "As the saying goes, a good man does not fight with anger. The commander of the Tang Army is newly mourned, and he is full of anger when he is angry, and he will fight to break the net. At that time, even if our army wins, it will inevitably suffer a lot of self-inflicted losses, which is one of them; Second, it is unjust to take advantage of their mourning to cut down their soldiers. Even if we win, we will not win by force, but will deepen the hatred of the Tang army and the Han people towards us layer by layer. Qinling, didn't you say that to defeat Qin Mubai and defeat the Guanxi Army, it was only between covering your hands, so why rush for a while? When the anger of the Tang Army dissipates, the dragons will be defeated with one blow, so why compete with them at this moment and fall into the charge of injustice? ”

"Zampu, please forgive my brother for speaking out." Garqinling bent down to caress his chest and lowered his eyebrows, but his words were sonorous, "In the past few days, the Tang army has been organizing funerals in the camp, and our army has not taken advantage of this period to send troops to attack and kill, so it is already benevolent and righteous. At this time, the other army came to attack our army to defend itself, and there was no injustice in the slightest. The Tang army came to provoke with a bloody heart, and if our army counterattacked when it was not strong, it would surely breed the arrogance of the enemy army, and it would be out of control from now on! ”

"Qinling, if you want to achieve great things, you must have 'the right time, place and people'. As far as Tibet is concerned, the biggest difficulty in trying to dominate the Central Plains as a foreigner is to win the hearts and minds of the people. "Therefore, if you can always and everywhere be benevolent, you will be able to exchange small losses for big gains." At this time, the commander of the Tang Army was newly mourned, and his hatred came to attack, and our army not only did not fight with the battle, but retreated, so as to show his respect for the dead, what kind of courage and mind is it? ”

Garqinling bowed his head and was speechless for a long time, and finally nodded: "Brother Understand...... I'm waiting, but it's not as broad-minded and far-sighted as Zampu! -- Order, immediately pull out the camp and retreat for thirty miles. And in the army, he imitated the customs of the Han people to raise filial piety and hang flags, and paid tribute to Qin Mubai, the commander of the Tang Army, the spirit of the sky! ”

"Yes!"

Abandon the sect and praise it, and secretly sighed, thinking: Qin Mubai died violently, this incident happened suddenly, too much beyond my expectations and arrangements. Before the situation deteriorates, it is necessary to stabilize the Galqin Mausoleum. If this battle can be fought one day later, I will have more room to maneuver. In short, until the last moment, I will never give up on the peace alliance!

As shrewd as Garqinling, coupled with his understanding of Zampu, he had already figured out his motives and intentions for ordering 'no retreat from war'. However, after all, it is a "monarch and minister", even if he is a brother who is brave in life and death, as long as there is a relationship between the monarch and the minister, Garqinling knows that he will never be able to cross the level of Zampu.

At this moment, the sense of crisis that had already existed faintly in Garqinling's heart intensified again-"Zampu, the brother who has been close to my compatriots for fifteen years, is getting closer and more trusting to me than before......

The Tang army, with 30,000 horses and 20 Shenwu cannons, spent half a day crossing the Qingluo Plain and approached the edge of the Tubo military camp. However, the scout in front quickly reported that the Tufan people suddenly rose up and retreated to the northwest plateau, and set up another army thirty miles away, putting on the defensive.

This was really a big surprise to Xue Wanjun and all the officers and soldiers of the Tang Army!

Originally, everyone had put life and death aside and was ready to die and break the net, but ...... The powerful Tibetan people, with an army of 300,000, why did they withdraw inexplicably?

Xue Wanjun was confused for a while, and hurriedly sent a fast horse to report back to Hou Junji, so that he, the marching horse, would come to get an idea.

Hou Junji was also stunned, and hurriedly left the camp in person and ran to the front army to investigate. At this time, the scouts reported the military situation one after another, saying that after the Tubo people returned to the camp, they actually raised Bai Xiao in the camp, hung out the soul flag, killed cattle and sheep for sacrifice, and wantonly mourned for Qin Mubai, the commander of the Tang Army!

"How can it be!"

"Poisoning the young marshal, and now coming to the funeral to pay tribute, it is clearly cynical and deceitful!"

"Kill them all! Kill!!! ”

None of the Tang Army soldiers appreciated the situation, but their anger rose again, which was unstoppable!

Seeing this situation, even if Xue Wanjun and Hou Junji had any ideas, they could not calm the anger, so Xue Wanjun still led the army forward and attacked and killed the Tubo army.

Moreover, the Tubo people did not stop doing two things, and retreated two battalions within three days, each battalion was thirty miles, and they still held mourning and filial piety in the army, and paid tribute to the dead.

Xue Wanjun and the soldiers of the Tang Army of the three armies were angry and went out of the camp for more than 200 miles to invite revenge, and actually hit their fists on the cotton in a row.

Even Hou Junji felt a little big, and said secretly: This is really unexpected! Qin Mubai, even if you are clever, you never expected that there would be this layer? The Tubo people retreated and did not fight with me, as the saying goes, it is not more than a hundred steps to drive people, and if we want to chase him again, it will seem that we are messing around and unreasonable. Besides, a lone army that goes deeper than 200 miles is also the way to defeat. It's like a rabbit provoking a hungry wolf, and people don't bother to fight with me and retreat to the nest, and the rabbit is still chasing after me endlessly...... I have to find a way to withdraw Xue Wanjun!

In the middle of the night, Hou Junji, who was depressed in his heart, came to the mourning hall alone, found an excuse to break away from the person who guarded the spirit, patted the coffin, and said in a loud voice that seemed to be true and false: "Qin Mubai, Qin Mubai, you threw down a bad idea and lay down in this big coffin, but it was comfortable and comfortable, but I was here with a big head and a lot of blood, and many people died for you." I can't control this group of arrogant soldiers under you, or the king of Jiangxia will come quickly; Or, let's change? I'll go in and lie down for a while, and you'll come out to take charge? ”

"In the middle of the night, you still haven't let people sleep?" Suddenly, there was a voice, but it was a female voice.

Su Lianqing, like a ghost, flashed out of a dark corner of the mourning hall.

Hou Junji was frightened for a while, and said sullenly: "When did you come, and you didn't say anything?!" ”

"All the time." Su Lianqing pursed her lips and smiled, "I have to watch, what if someone steals the corpse or sets it on fire?" ”

"What do you mean?" Hou Junji glared at her a little annoyed, "Why are you guys all watching me out like a thief?" ”

"Hey, don't get me wrong, that's not what I meant at all." Su Lianqing grinned and said, "If I can't trust you, you won't be an insider." You tell me? ”

Hou Junji snorted coldly, looked around vigilantly, and after confirming that there were no more idle people waiting around, he asked in a low voice, "Where is the young marshal now?" What's next? ”

The frivolous look on Su Lianqing's face suddenly swept away, became solemn and vigilant, and said in a low voice: "Naturally, it is no longer in Dafeichuan." ”

"What, when did he leave the barracks and where did he go?" Hou Junji was surprised, "Could it be that he really doesn't care about the 100,000 army?" ”

"What are you yelling about?" Su Lianqing snorted and said, "Didn't he already give you permission to invite King Jiangxia to come and take charge?" When the sky is down, there will be people on top, what are you panicking about! ”

"I'm not panicking, I'm in a hurry!" Hou Junji took a deep breath and spit out sullenly, saying, "He told this big lie and then fled, watching 100,000 brothers grieve and fight desperately for him. O wrath of the people! Now the people in Dafei Sichuan have only one thought left, that is, to find the Tubo people desperately. If you fight to the death of a fish and break the army, won't all the tricks be a lie? That's good! ”

"You're overthinking." Su Lianqing clasped her elbows with her hands and said lightly, "With Qin Mubai's treachery, how could he not expect the situation in front of him?" Or, that's exactly what he wants. ”

"Exactly what he wants?" Hou Junji frowned, and said suspiciously and annoyedly, "Is he really so ruthless and deceived his loyal generals and fellow brothers?" ”

"Not deception. It's a soldier who never tires of deceit. Su Lianqing said, "I know Qin Mubai's personality, not to mention anything else, he is very lustful, but he has always been very pitiful." If you look at Li Xueyan's current situation, you can see how ruthless he is this time. To tell you the truth, he not only deceived a confidante and 100,000 brothers, but also deceived more people, including his mother, sister, wife and daughter, and even himself. ”

"Himself?" Hou Junji asked puzzled.

"Tell you something, you can't believe it." Su Lian said lightly.

"You speak."

"What Qin Mubai swallowed last time was a truly deadly poison." Su Lianqing's face sank, her eyebrows furrowed, she shook her head, and said with a sigh, "If I arrive half a minute late, he will definitely be poisoned into the bone marrow and die in Huangquan!" Therefore, he vomited blood, fell into a coma, and even died, which was not pretended. That's true! ”

"What?!" Hou Junji was really taken aback, "He's too ruthless and too risky!" ”

"At that time, he asked me for help, but I refused to live or die. But he said......" Su Lianqing paused for a moment, sighed, and said, "I have never seen him so stubbornly eager for a victory as he is now, and that is even paranoia!" Crazy paranoia! - He said, if you can't even fool yourself, how can you fool others? Start with himself, then the people around him, then the generals and sergeants under his command, then the Tang Dynasty, and then the final goal, you must deceive the Garqin Mausoleum! ”

"Tell a big lie and let the whole world dance with it...... Non-toxic husband, too ruthless! Hou Junji took two breaths of cool air, and after being speechless for a while, he said, "Then he is poisoned now?" How's it going? ”

"Rest assured. The old lady has thousands of lives, and she doesn't dare to be confused in this matter. Su Lianqing said, "Qin Mubai knows that his 'death' will cause chaos in Dafeichuan, you and Xue Wanjun have always been at odds, and it is very likely that they will not be able to control the table." That's why I'm telling you this secret so that you can calm your mind. After King Jiangxia arrived in Dafeichuan, he naturally had other arrangements. ”

"Good...... Hearing you say that, I feel a lot more relieved. Hou Junji sighed a few times, shook his head again, and then smiled bitterly, patted the coffin a few times and said, "Okay, you still lie down well, let's not change it again." ”

Su Lianqing pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "Marching and fighting is your grandfather's business. The only thing I can't worry about now is Li Xueyan, a princess girl. I hope that after King Jiangxia comes, she will be able to get better. ”

"Hmm......" Hou Junji also nodded with a complicated face and said, "I didn't expect this girl to be so affectionate to Qin Mubai." Qin Mubai is really a big lover and a big bag! …… When things are done, I'll see how he picks up the mess. The most difficult thing in the world to repay is this love debt! - And his wife and children over Lanzhou, his mother and sister family on the Chang'an side, as well as his brothers and friends, and countless die-hard soldiers, how should they be explained? ”

"Leave him alone. Seeing that the man in my family is about to be stupid, I don't dare to divulge half a sentence, how much do you say I hate him? Su Lianqing sneered, laughing a little annoyed and worried, and said hatefully, "Now Qin Mubai only has the word 'victory or defeat' left in his mind. Whether he wins or loses in the end, it may not be an easy situation to clean up. This time...... It's really out of the way! ”

Hou Junji nodded, sighed, and said, "Desperately give up all your belongings, Qin Mubai will also win this game." In the end, it may have all originated from his father's death...... That's ruthless! He's a madman, and I'm convinced! ”
