A Kong Ming lantern, for some reason, suddenly burst into flames.

And while burning, it falls sharply.

And while falling, the burning became more violent, and even the flames splashed everywhere.

Fortunately, the lantern fell into the street and did not cause any fire.

It's okay, it's okay!

How did they make the Kong Ming lanterns? How could it be so shoddy?

However, the next moment, in the sky above Meng Shezhao, countless Kong Ming lanterns suddenly burned one after another.

Then it quickly fell, and one fireball after another fell on the entire city of Munshe.

Disheveled!

Disheveled! Disheveled!

With countless crashing sounds, houses quickly burst into flames.

"Oh no, it's on fire, come and put out the fire!"

"It's on fire, come and put out the fire!"

The soldiers patrolling outside immediately opened their throats and shouted loudly.

At the same time, began to quickly extinguish the fire.

But Kong Ming lanterns are like stars in the sky, there are too many and too dense.

Fires are raging everywhere, and they are raging fast.

There weren't too many soldiers on their night patrol.

Now I'm even more stretched and don't know where to rescue.

Countless people were awakened by the fire and quickly fled.

However, it is only for people to escape.

If you want to save your family's property, you basically don't have that time.

The entire Monsheedict was soon engulfed in flames.

……

This time the situation is similar to the last time it was set on fire!

This time the fire is bigger than the last one!

Last time, it was water to set fires.

This time, it was set on fire with a lamp.

The city has been engulfed in flames, and there is no way to treat people.

The gates of the city were opened on all sides, and countless soldiers and civilians escaped from the gates.

But what was waiting for them was the Duan Gongming army and the Tang army, which were waiting for them.

As soon as they walked out of the city gates, they were mercilessly slaughtered.

Until someone shouted surrender, threw away their weapons, and walked with their hands held high.

The coalition forces only began to stop the slaughter and accept surrender.

Of course, there is no shortage of Mengsha edicts and Vedic soldiers fishing in troubled waters.

But if you don't throw away your weapon, you won't want to come alive.

If you throw away your weapon, you're just a living target.

Soon, most of the people and soldiers in the city chose to surrender.

Because if they don't surrender, the only thing that awaits them is death.

And the Vedas and his soldiers, resolutely refusing to surrender, have always resisted stubbornly.

It's a pity that they have lost the right time, place and people.

In the end, it can only be ruthlessly slaughtered.

It even affected a lot of civilians.

After dawn, there were still raging fires burning everywhere in the city.

And the battle outside the city is basically over.

The king of Monshe, in the midst of the melee, was killed by the rebels.

Well, well, he was actually shot by Duan Gongming.

He would never have accepted the surrender of the king.

Others, all surrendered.

After this battle, the entire Nanzhao was left with only the last Shi Langzhao.

In the entire Nanzhao, only they are the biggest and strongest.

After this battle, Nanzhao was basically evaluated.

And next, Duan Gongming needs to digest these two tribes well.

Then, you can take time out and slowly swallow Shi Langzhao.

Now just a wave edict can't turn up any waves.

Therefore, Li Su led 10,000 Tang troops and prepared to withdraw.

Leave the rest to Duan Gongming, and play slowly by yourself.

……

After Li Su returned, the time had come to the end of October.

Before I knew it, a year was about to pass.

In October, Li Shimin came to Luoyang and asked Fang Xuanling to stay in Beijing.

In November, Li Shimin officially issued an edict against Goryeo.

With Zhang Liang as the general manager of the Pingxiang Road march, he led 40,000 troops and 500 warships to Pyongyang by sea.

With Li Shiyun as the general manager of the march of Liaodong Road, he led 60,000 infantry and cavalry to Liaodong.

The sea route marched in two directions and attacked Goryeo together.

And Zhao Silla, Baekje, Xi, Khitan, etc., respectively sent troops to help.

Well, years ago, the army should have been able to reach the border with Goryeo.

If you want to attack Goryeo, it is estimated that it will have to wait until next year.

Now, on the Nanzhao side, he is waiting for Duan Gongming to digest all the territory of Mengshezhao.

Wait until next year, and then you can attack the Monshe.

After taking the Mengshe Zhao, the entire Nanzhao will be unified, and when the time comes, it will naturally be laid out calmly.

Years ago, there was no major event, and Li Su had already begun to prepare for the New Year.

……

However, at this time, Nanzhao was actually turbulent.

Now, Duan Gongming has occupied five-sixths of Nanzhao's territory.

They issued an edict, but there were only 20,000 soldiers and horses.

And Duan Gongming, although there are only 30,000 troops on the surface now.

But he captured more than 20,000 soldiers.

Moreover, he can also recruit at least 10,000 soldiers and horses.

Taken together, there are 60,000 troops.

60,000 against 20,000, it's a completely crushing posture.

Just waiting for Duan Gongming to complete the digestion of the internal territory, that is, when he Shi Lang Zhao died in the country.

Now, the king of Shi Langzhao was terrified.

Under the crisis, they began to ask for help from Tibet.

Tubo Zampu Songtsen Gampo, after receiving Shi Langzhao's request for help, hesitated.

The original intention of Songtsen Gampo was to ignore Shi Lang's edict.

Because now behind Duan Gongming, there is Tang Jun.

And Tubo once suffered a big loss from the Tang Dynasty.

Now, Songtsen Gampo really doesn't dare to go against Datang.

At this time, Zhang Jianghe, the national teacher of Tubo, took the initiative to find Songtsen Gampo.

Zhang Jianghe couldn't help but analyze to Songtsan Gampo: "Zanpu, if we don't help Shi Langzhao, then next year, Shi Langzhao will be annexed by Duan Gongming and unify Nanzhao." ”

Songtsen Gampo couldn't help but say: "I also know this truth, but behind Duan Gongming is still standing the King of Tang Shu." If we help Shi Langzhao, we are making enemies of the Tang Dynasty! ”

In fact, the reason why the six countries of Nanzhao stood side by side was because of the Tubo behind it.

A complete and unified Nanzhao would bring a threat to Tibet, and it would not be in the interests of Tibet.

In the chaos of Nanzhao, Tubo is a-stirring stick behind them.

After hearing Songtsan Gampo's words, Zhang Jianghe said: "Zampu, the problem now happens to be because Duan Gongming is standing behind the King of Tang Shu. ”

"Now the King of Tang Shu and the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the relationship between their father and son is extremely delicate."

"And Nanzhao is a pawn of the Tang Shu King. After Duan Gongming unified the Southern Zhao, wasn't it equivalent to beating the King of Shu of the Tang Dynasty? ”

"And after the King of Shu of the Tang Dynasty takes Nanzhao, Zampu, please see, he occupies Jiannan Dao, Tuyuhun and Nanzhao."

"It has already surrounded most of us in Tibet. When the time comes, will he let Tubo go? ”

"Once the King of Tang Shu takes Tubo, he will occupy the entire southwest of the Tang Dynasty, and when the time comes, even if it is the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, there is no way to take him, will he let go of this opportunity?"

After hearing Zhang Jianghe's words, Songtsen Gampo couldn't help but be shocked.

Yes, once the Southern Zhao is won, will the King of Shu of the Tang Dynasty let Tubo go?

As long as he takes Tubo, he really has the strength to divide one side.

The emperor of the Tang Dynasty will also have no way to take him.

Songtsen Gampo couldn't help but ask worriedly: "National teacher, but if we help Shi Langzhao, it will be equivalent to a head-on war with the King of Shu of the Tang Dynasty." If the king of Shu has no intention of attacking my Tibetans, why don't we kill ourselves? ”

Yes, in Songtsen Gampo's view, provoking the king of Shu is not much different from committing suicide.

Zhang Jianghe smiled and said, "Zampu, in fact, Tang Jun is not omnipotent. The King of Shu in the Tang Dynasty is not a god. ”

"Previously, it was rumored in the Tang Dynasty that the King of Shu of the Tang Dynasty created a precedent in painting. The birthday picture of Concubine Yang drawn by the King of Shu was shocked as a masterpiece. ”

"But now, doesn't it seem like it's just a picture taken with a camera and then printed?"

"Therefore, all kinds of magical legends of the King of Shu are actually just hyped up by himself."

"Look at the war in Nanzhao, in addition to the two fires of the Tang army, in Nanzhao, how much combat effectiveness do they have?"

"In the land of Nanzhao, the terrain is complex and changeable, the roads are rugged and bumpy, and the strongest steam chariot in the Tang Dynasty has been scrapped."

"Cavalry can't come in handy."

"If we only use infantry to fight, how much of our Tubo warriors are weaker than the Tang Dynasty?"

"Now, the King of Shu of the Tang Dynasty has withdrawn. Duan Gongming has only 30,000 troops at hand, as well as more than 20,000 captured soldiers, and the integration has not yet been completed. ”

"As long as we Tubo send 50,000 troops to help Shi Langzhao, we can easily take Nanzhao."

"At that time, Nanzhao will be completely in the hands of our Tubo."

"In this kind of terrain, when the Tang Dynasty reacts, why should they take Nanzhao in our hands?"

"Instead of much danger in taking Nanzhao, we have increased our ability to protect ourselves, Zampu! I also hope that Zampu will think twice! ”

After listening to Zhang Jianghe's words, Songtsen Gampo couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

After a long time, Songtsen Gampo finally made a decision.

He decided to follow the advice of the national teacher and sent 50,000 troops to help Shi Langzhao attack Duan Gongming.

In fact, helping Shi Langzhao is helping themselves.

Shi Langzhao had an army of 20,000, and they sent 50,000 troops to Tibet, adding up to 70,000 troops.

The 70,000-strong army was absolutely victorious against the 30,000-strong army of the upper section of Gongming, and of course, the 20,000 soldiers who had just been captured.

Next, Tubo secretly sent an army of 50,000, plus Shi Langzhao already had an army of 20,000.

The 70,000-strong army, with a thunderous force, attacked the city under construction in the south of Duan Gongming.

The southern part of the city, which has been completely burned down, is currently being rebuilt.

There were only more than 20,000 people left, and they were quickly defeated by the Tibetan army.

After learning the news, Duan Gongming was taken aback and personally led an army of 50,000 to resist and meet the Tubo army according to the favorable terrain.

However, Duan Gongming obviously underestimated the combat ability of the Tibetan soldiers.

At the same time, he did not expect that among the 20,000 troops he captured, there were also Vedic henchmen.

At the critical moment, the Vedas led the soldiers against the water.

His anti-water led to the rapid rout of Duan Gongming's army.

Duan Gongming was also killed on the spot.

As soon as Duan Gongming died, his subordinates were quickly defeated.

The Tubo and Shi Langzhao tribes quickly besieged the capital of Duan Gongming.

Princess Duan Yutong, under the protection of three thousand personal soldiers, desperately fought her way out.

In the end, there were 3,000 pro-soldiers, countless casualties, and not one out of ten.

There are only more than 200 people, protecting Princess Yutong and fighting their way out of the encirclement.

They have endured a lot of hard work.

For seven days and seven nights, I barely closed my eyes.

Ran all the way to Yizhou and found Li Su, the king of Shu.

"Brother, please avenge my father!"

The moment she saw the King of Shu, she was full of revenge, and the princess, who was blinded by hatred, re-revealed her weakness.

Li Su hurriedly helped Duan Yutong up and asked with concern, "Yutong, what happened?" What happened to your father? ”

"Brother......

Duan Yutong, who was about to speak, suddenly weakened and collapsed in Li Su's arms.

Li Su sighed, picked up Duan Yutong, and put her on his bed.

And help her remove her boots and cover her with a quilt.

After doing all this, Li Su also ordered his subordinates to cook millet porridge.

After cooking, put it on the pot and wait for her to wake up.

Li Su asked the cronies who came to protect Duan Yutong, and then he understood the whole story.

After learning what happened, Li Su couldn't help but be furious!

Songtsen Gampo?

Hum!

It's so big and daring!

Originally, Li Su had not decided to move Tibet for the time being.

But now, Tubo actually dared to make a move against Nanzhao.

And completely disrupted his layout.

Li Su didn't expect that Tubo would have such a big courage!

Since you dare to do it, you must have the consciousness to bear the consequences of doing it!

Li Su immediately found Wang Fangyi and Xi Junmai, and ordered them to lead an army of 30,000 to pacify Nanzhao.

Last time, Li Su led the army to Nanzhao by himself, but he didn't do anything, but only played a helping role.

The latest equipment of the Tang Army has not been revealed at all.

And now, it's time to show your fangs.

This time, let them see Datang's latest equipment!

And Wang Fangyi and Xi Junmai, even together with the 30,000 army they led, were extremely excited!

They finally have a great opportunity to go to the battlefield again and make military achievements!

This is such a rare opportunity for them.

At the same time, the two of them are still holding back a lot of energy in their hearts, and they want to compete to see who can capture the most territory and see who can kill the most enemies.

Wait for the two of them to lead the army to set off.

Li Su found Xue Rengui again and ordered him to gather an army of 50,000 and be ready to attack Tibet at any time.

These 110,000 troops are all the strength of Li Su in Jiannan Dao.

Of course, in fact, Li Su's biggest hole card, as well as the Huya Special Combat Team, has now grown to a scale of 3,000 people.

So far, it has not moved, and the Huya special combat team is protecting the safety of the entire Yizhou.

Li Su believes that there is no need for the Huya special combat team to easily win this war.

Otherwise, in the past five or six years, I have really developed in vain.

……

After a whole day and a night, Duan Yutong woke up.

After waking up, Duan Yutong couldn't help but hug Li Su and cry bitterly.

Li Su comforted her for a while, so that she gradually stopped her grief.

Then, under Li Yu's persuasion, Duan Yutong reluctantly drank a bowl of millet porridge.

Next, Duan Yutong implored Li Su to send troops to attack Shi Langzhao and Tubo.

Duan Yutong is ready to follow the army to avenge his father.

Li Su couldn't help but say: "Yutong, yesterday, I have sent two generals, each with 30,000 soldiers and horses, to kill Nanzhao!" ”

"In less than a month, they will be able to kill the rebels and take down Nanzhao!"

"Don't worry, your business is my business! You just have to rest assured that you will be able to raise your body here, and when your body is well raised, Nanzhao will take it back! ”

Hearing Li Su's words, Duan Yutong was first surprised, and then inexplicably moved.

It turns out that yesterday when I fainted, my brother had already sent a large army!

And Brother also said, my business is his business!

Well, in fact, the reason why Li Yu sent troops so early was not entirely for Duan Yutong's sake.

In other words, her role in it is actually extremely limited.

But in Duan Yutong's ears, Brother will send troops entirely because of her!

I have to say, this is really a beautiful misunderstanding.

Now that the army has been mobilized, Duan Yutong can only stay here and wait for news.

On the Tang side, Xue Rengui gathered troops and horses, and Chen soldiers were on the border line of Tubo, ready to attack at any time.

Even in some areas, the border has been crossed.

Tubo did not dare to slack off, and set up 100,000 soldiers on the border and waited for it.

However, it is now winter, and the possibility of a fight is not very high.

But if the Tang Dynasty does not withdraw from the army, Tubo will never dare to withdraw from the army!

can only stalemate with Datang here.

The army of Tibet is basically involved here.

On Nanzhao's side, it is unlikely that both sides will send troops to help, so they can only see their own performance.

Now, the news has come out, and almost the entire Datang knows about it.

Tubo actually sent troops to attack the Tang Dynasty.

Now the king of Shu is eyeing the Tibetans, and there is a possibility of war at any time.

After getting the news, Li Shimin was quite satisfied.

Next year, Li Shimin is preparing to attack Goryeo.

But the King of Shu is in Jiannan Road, which is very close to Chang'an, and Li Shimin is a little uneasy.

Now, when he heard that the King of Shu actually had a conflict with Tubo, Li Shimin was much more relieved.

The strength of Tibet is very strong.

Even if the king of Shu is strong and strong, and fights with Tubo, it will not be possible to achieve victory overnight.

It is not even clear whether it will be able to achieve victory.

Since this is the case, it is impossible for him to have the energy to attack Chang'an.

Li Shimin can rest assured to attack Goryeo.

……

And the next war in Nanzhao really shocked Songtsen Gampo and Duan Yutong.

Originally, Songtsen Gampo and Zhang Jianghe guessed that the Tang Dynasty's army was not invincible.

Their strength lies in their steam chariots.

In certain terrains, their combat effectiveness is actually very average.

However, in the war of Nanzhao, the Tibetans found out that they were wrong.

And the wrong one couldn't be had.

As soon as the two sides came into contact, two wars broke out.

And these two wars were fought almost simultaneously.

Of these two wars, one was led by Wang Fangyi.

On the other hand, it was led by Xi Junmai.

These two people are both tiger generals and fierce men.

Naturally, no one is convinced.

Coincidentally, in these two major battles, the forces faced by both sides were almost the same.

There are more than 20,000 people.

And after these two wars, in the end, they both won great victories, annihilating more than 5,000 enemies.

In the two battles, more than 10,000 people did not reach Shi Langzhao and Tubo.

After these two battles, the Tibetan side finally realized the strength of the Tang army.

The last time there was a battle between the two sides, it seems to be seven or eight years ago.

Their cognition is still seven or eight years ago.

And now, the equipment of the Tang Army, after being updated again, is even more exaggerated.

Next, Shi Langzhao and Tubo, relying on the city, strictly guarded.

Since the combat effectiveness of the armies of the two sides is not at the same level at all.

So can we admit it?

Can't we not replenish our troops?

Can't we just cower under the tower and develop obscenely?

If you have the ability, you come to Yueta!

So, the Tang army really crossed the tower!

That same night, both armies chose to steal the city at the same time.

They sent out the battalion of sharp knives in the army, and from various weak points of defense, they quietly climbed the city walls with flying claws.

Then through various assassinations, then gather in one place, force open the city gates, and then the army storms the city.

The Sharp Knife Battalion is also where the armies discover the strength of the Huya Special Combat Team.

The special operations army prepared by each army in its own army.

The content of the training is also on par with the Huya special combat team, and even the Huya special combat team will help them with training.

And whether it is Shi Langzhao or Tubo, they have never experienced this kind of special battle.

They weren't well prepared.

Therefore, the city was easily broken by the Tang army.

After the city was broken, the two Tang armies slaughtered the coalition forces in the city.

The two cities, totaling more than 30,000 allied troops, were all slaughtered and did not accept surrender at all.

So far, more than 40,000 of the 70,000 allied troops of Shi Langzhao and Tubo have been killed, and less than 30,000 soldiers and horses remain.

For the first time, the forces of both sides reversed.

Next, they left only a small number of soldiers and horses.

The army went on the offensive.

Whether it was Shi Langzhao or the Tubo soldiers, they were frightened by the amazing combat effectiveness and bloodiness of the Tang Dynasty.

Where do they dare to fight head-on with the Don Army?

Even if the turtle is cowering within the city wall, it is afraid that the Tang army will break through the city.

The next city was more and more heavily guarded, and there was a constant flow of people on the city wall day and night.

But when the Tang army took out more than a dozen siege equipment, they were all desperate.

These siege equipment are actually made by Datang in recent years.

Can be disassembled.

It can be quickly assembled in front of the station.

After assembly, the chariot was one or two meters higher than the city walls.

Swiftly pushed by the shield soldiers to the side of the city wall.

The siege vehicle hung down its iron arm and firmly stuck the city wall, and the Tang army stood on the siege vehicle and fired condescendingly.

Within 800 yards around, no one dared to stand.

The Tang army quickly jumped from the engineering vehicle to the city wall and quickly broke the city.

Then slaughtered more than 10,000 soldiers of the coalition army again.

At this point, the slaughtered coalition army has approached 60,000, and only more than 10,000 soldiers remain.

As a last resort, Tubo had no choice but to give the order to retreat.

It is only now that Tubo understands how terrible the Tang Dynasty is.

Whether it was Songtsen Gampo or Zhang Jianghe, they all found that they had despised the Tang Dynasty too much.

The Tang Dynasty, which has been lurking for seven or eight years, is not only still the tiger it used to be, but now it has grown wings.
