"Pei Shuai!" Wang Xiaobai rode back to Wanxiu City alone. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"How?" Pei Min didn't care much about the victory or defeat in Wanxiu City, in terms of the overall situation, Shang Zanpo was just a piece of cake, and Stone Castle City was what he cared about.

The significance of Stone Castle City to the Tang Dynasty is too important. As long as you take Shibao City, you will no longer have to worry about the attack of Tubo in the future. Strategically, the Tang Army will turn passivity into initiative and peep into the interests of Qinghai Lake.

"Take it down!" Wang Xiaobai has been dormant in the Mengchi Mountains, looking for a shortcut to attack the city, while paying attention to the movements of Shibao City, he knows the situation of Shibao City well, and tells Pei Min about the process of Gongren taking Shibao City.

"Great!" When Pei Min heard this, he couldn't help but look up and laugh, so that Gong Ren took Stone Castle City was indeed the most correct choice.

After taking Shibao City, half of their task was completed, and the rest only needed to defeat the Tubo soldiers who were cowering on the Golden Sky Bridge, the tree stump, and the Great Momen, and seize the Jiuqu Land in Hexi, and it would be done.

Guo Zhiyun stabbed the enemy in his hand and came back to join him with satisfaction, but when he heard that Gong Ren had taken Shibao City, he also waved his fist excitedly.

Pei Min's happiness is based on the overall situation, while Guo Zhiyun's happiness is a bad breath. He is the governor of Shanzhou and the envoy of Longyoujie.

The stone castle city is opposite Shanzhou, and every time Tubo comes out of the stone castle city to loot, the first victim is Shanzhou.

After Guo Zhiyun served as the governor of Shanzhou and the envoy of Longyoujiedu, he almost devoted his mind to dealing with the Tubo army in Shibao City, and for this reason, he also lost his young son, and he had the deepest resentment against him, and he was also happy to see Shibao City return to the embrace of the Tang Dynasty.

Pei Min looked at Guo Zhiyun and said, "Guo Gong, you immediately send someone to take over Shibao City and exchange General Gongren for it." In the future, Shibao City will be handed over to Guo Gong, such a strategic place, I hope Guo Gong will treat it carefully. ”

The strict stone castle city also belongs to the territory of Longyou, and the defense of Longyou territory is the responsibility of the Longyou Jiedu envoy.

Guo Zhiyun didn't refuse, waved his hand and called for him to arrange it, and said and smiled at Pei Min: "I'm just looking at Guogong for the time being, and I have to rely on Guogong in the future." ”

Pei Min was a little puzzled, but he didn't ask much.

Wanxiu City was destroyed and was not suitable for garrisoning.

Pei Min led his army north to join up with Nongongren.

In normal times, they would have to cross the Golden Sky Bridge to reach the north shore and penetrate deep into the hinterland of Tibet. However, because it is winter, it belongs to the ice period of the Yellow River, and the army can walk freely on the Yellow River.

Walking cautiously on the Yellow River, Guo Zhiyun looked at the mother river that bent and yan, and said: "This ghost weather is really pros and cons!" The far-sightedness of the national prince can be seen in general! ”

Pei Min's face turned red when he heard this, and he rubbed his hands, the weather was getting colder and colder, and his hands were a little stiff, and he responded: "This is really an accident!" ”

In order to solve the problem quickly, he did do a lot of planning, but he really did not take into account the ice period of the Yellow River.

In the 21st century, the temperature is warmer, and he lives in the south, where the Pearl River Delta is as warm as spring all year round, and even snow is not common, let alone the river water freezes.

It seems that God also helped him invisibly, and after winter, the upper reaches of the Yellow River gradually froze.

When he burned the Tibetan hay and arrived at the front line from Guang'en Town, pedestrians and horses could already run on the Yellow River, avoiding the attack and defense of the Golden Sky Bridge, and jumping directly over the Yellow River.

For this reason, he was worried that he would not be able to bear it, so he walked cautiously, for fear that the history books would come out: "In the fourth year of Kaiyuan, December 1, winter." Liang Guogong and Taozhou assassin Shi Pei Min, led the army to cross the Yellow River, did not fall into the ice, and died! ”

That's not fun.

In fact, he was too worried, with the current thickness of the ice of the Yellow River, even if a tank drove over, it would be fine, let alone the army.

After crossing the Yellow River "without danger", Pei Min chose to garrison under the Mengchi Ridge to rest, and Gong Ren also led his troops to converge.

The Big Three got together again to discuss their next move.

According to the current trend, as long as they talk about the three important places of Gongrenjin Tianqiao, the tree stump, and the Great Momen, they will be considered to have achieved great success.

However, Pei Min asked another question, "On the general, you should have a detailed understanding of the reaction of my Tang people to the water and soil in your Tubo, right?" Can you tell me about it? ”

The plateau climate is a topic that can never be avoided in the duel with the Tibetans, and the Tang army has been fighting with the Tibetans for many years, each with its own victories and defeats, but the Tang Dynasty has never once caused fatal damage to the Tibetans. The plateau climate occupies the main reason, and when the brave soldiers go to the plateau, they will also be like a plague chicken, and there will be various discomfort problems. So that every time they invaded, they all ended up in a fiasco.

The plateau climate Pei Min experienced when he traveled in later generations, and at that time he was already very uncomfortable just walking around. If he marched and fought as he does now, hurried with heavy loads on his back, or went into battle to kill the enemy, he did not think that he had the ability to sustain himself.

Moreover, ancient times are different from modern times, and modern transportation is convenient and there are various services.

In ancient times, it was all about two legs, plus barely feasible dirt roads, and the comparison between the two was not the same.

If you want to enter Qinghai Lake, you must have a full understanding of the plateau climate, otherwise it will be like playing with fire.

Guo Zhiyun and Gong Ren looked at Pei Min movingly, listening to Pei Min's tone, did he want to hit the mainland of Tubo?

On Gong Ren, I don't know how to speak.

Guo Zhiyun worried: "Will it be too hasty?" ”

Pei Min looked at the meaning of the two and said with a smile: "You misunderstood what I meant, but we don't have any logistical troubles now." With such a big fat in Qinghai Lake, is there any reason not to get a piece of the pie? A hundred-legged insect that dies but does not stiffen. I don't have arrogant contempt for Tibet, I just want to build a military town on the edge of Qinghai Lake, and put a nail in it to share Qinghai Lake with Tibet, which is very beneficial to my Tang Dynasty. ”

Of course, he still has deeper thoughts that have not been explained, for Tubo, his long-term plan is once and for all, but this plan is a bit long-term, and it is not suitable to say it now.

He has not forgotten the future development of Tibet, and the current little Zampu of Tibet is a Ming monarch, although he is only ten years old and has not yet taken power. However, after he takes power in the future, he will stabilize the political situation in Tibet in a very short period of time and enhance the national strength of Tibet. Xiao Zampu's son is also a Ming monarch, two consecutive generations of Ming monarchs, and the Tang Dynasty coincided with the Anshi Rebellion, and the national strength declined significantly, forming a stark contrast.

Because of this opportunity, Tubo developed into an empire that almost made things tremble, not only conquered the Longyou Hexi of the Tang Dynasty, but also collided with the Arab Empire in the West in the Western Regions.

Pei Min is familiar with this history, so naturally he will not sit idly by and watch this happen.

Only by completely destroying Tibet, letting them disappear into the torrent of history, and becoming a part of the Tang Dynasty can it be truly done once and for all.

But in order to fight on the plateau, it is necessary to have an army that can adapt to altitude sickness.

Qinghai Lake is scientifically described as a plateau continental climate, with altitude sickness but not so strong, which is just right for soldiers to adapt to habits and prepare for the future.

Now that the strength of Tubo's national strength has been greatly reduced, and they have taken Shibao City, strategic materials can be transported directly from Shibao City to the front line, without crossing the Jiuqu Land in Hexi, everything is towards the Tang Dynasty, and if they do not extend their tentacles to Qinghai Lake, they really can't stand this good situation.

Guo Zhiyun and Gong Ren didn't know the deep considerations, and they breathed a sigh of relief one after another, thinking that Pei Min was young and frivolous, blinded by the current victory, and wanted to take advantage of the situation to attack Qinghai Lake and kill the Quartet.

The importance of Qinghai Lake to Tubo is self-evident, if Pei Min does this, Tubo will be bankrupt and will use the strength of the whole country to fight, and the situation will not be good at that time.

Thinking about it along Pei Min's train of thought, Guo Zhiyun's eyes lit up and said: "The princess of the country wants to fight more than that!" Si Mo Lang is famous for his good guarding, he stubbornly guards the golden bridge, tree stump, and Da Momen, we are not easy to start, but as long as we point to Qinghai Lake, he may not be able to sit still. ”

On Gongren clasped his palms together and smiled: "The way of using soldiers, attacking the city is the bottom, and attacking the heart is the top." The old witch made a big mistake in choosing Mo Lang as the handsome. She thought that Simalang could hold it, but Guogong avoided the strong attack and avoided all unnecessary sieges, so that Simalang had a lot of skills but couldn't show it. ”

After laughing, he sighed: "As Guogong said, about the water and soil between Tang and Fan. My father had an in-depth understanding of him in order to fight against Tang. He also specially used the strong Tang Dynasty warriors to do experiments, and the able-bodied people near Qinghai Lake were not very affected, but their physical strength was less than eighty percent of the original. The higher you go, the more serious the effect will be, and if you go deep into the Dafei River, you will have dizziness, diarrhea, weakness and other conditions in your physique. If the physical fitness is less than sixty percent, and then go up to Doma, even those who are physically fit may also be affected. As for the impact of physical strength, it is even more severe. For some reason, my father didn't think that General Xue Rengui had the courage to attack Wuhai City, and let him succeed. At the beginning, my father said that if Guo Houfeng hadn't dragged his feet, the victory or defeat of the battle in the past would not have been known. ”

Pei Min calculated in his heart that he only had seventy percent physical strength, which did have some impact, but it was within the acceptable range.

He pointed at Mo Liyi and said, "How about we directly station the army here?" ”

Don't leave the post!

A post station on the Tangbo Ancient Road is the main road connecting the Tang Dynasty and Tubo, and the only way for the Central Plains to go to Qinghai, the hinterland of Tubo and even Nepal, Tianzhu and other countries.

"We're here to relax! It is equivalent to cutting off Si Mo Lang's back road, on the one hand, forcing him to fight, and on the other hand, it can also prevent Tubo from sending reinforcements to support Si Mo Lang. What do you guys think? ”

"Waiting for work can make up for the disadvantage of physical strength, I have no opinion!" Guo Zhiyun agreed.

On Gong Ren's head said: "The stationing of the Duke of Mo is equivalent to choking the throat of Tibet, how can there be any reason to oppose it." It's just that after this battle, Tubo not only lost Hexi Jiuqudi and Shibao City, but also let us embed a nail in Qinghai Lake, and the old witch was going to die of anger. He smiled and said with mixed feelings in his heart.

Datang is a second home for him, but it cannot be denied that the first home is Tubo.

Pei Min and Guo Zhiyun can both feel the complicated feelings of Gong Ren, but they have no doubt about his loyalty to Datang.

After a lapse of 30 years, the Tang Dynasty Heroes once again reigned on Qinghai Lake!
