Chapter Seventy-Two: Dazarugon's Great Gift

When Pei Min got the news of the success of Gao Xianzhi's surprise attack, it was already half a month later.

When the generals in the Kabul River heard that Gao Xianzhi actually crossed the Kunlun Mountains and killed the Sea of Stars, the whole person was in a state of confusion.

Kunlun Mountain has always been thought to be known as the sacred mountain fairy mountain in China, in the earliest pre-Qin and Han dynasties, there are various records of the Queen Mother of the West, and there is a legend that King Mu of Zhou went west to Kunlun to meet the Queen Mother of the West.

This Gao Xianzhi actually climbed over the legendary sacred mountain, which is too incredible.

They all looked at Pei Min stupidly, not knowing what to say.

Pei Min was also excited to punch his left fist and hit his right palm, especially excited.

He does not regard Kunlun Mountain as a sacred mountain like the rest of the world.

As a traverser, Pei Min looks at Kunlun Mountain very rationally.

Although Kunlun Mountain is full of mythological atmosphere, its real altitude is not "high".

It's just that relatively speaking, it is much higher than the mountains of the Central Plains, with an average altitude of about 6,000.

The green mountains of the Western Regions, that is, the Pamir Plateau, with an average altitude of about 7,500 meters, are the convergence of the main mountain ranges in the southern and central regions of the Asian continent, including the Himalayas, the Karakoram Mountains, the Kunlun Mountains, the Tianshan Mountains, and the Hindu Kush Mountains.

In history, Gao Xianzhi crossed the Pamir Plateau twice, and also crossed the main peak such as Muztag Mountain, creating a miracle in the history of mountain warfare and marching, so the Great Food Kingdom and the Western Regions called him the king of the mountains.

Of course, the current Gao Xianzhi is slightly different from the one in history, and when Gao Xianzhi created this myth was in the Tianbao period, it was the peak of his own ability and experience.

The current Gao Xianzhi is a little tender, not as mature and stable as when he created miracles in history.

Therefore, when Pei Min proposed to Gao Xianzhi, he was still a little worried in his heart.

But Gao Xianzhi is full of confidence, he has long studied this area, but he lacks practice.

Pei Min remembered Gao Xianzhi's aura of a famous general, and Kunlun Mountain was not as steep as the Green Ridge.

Gao Xianzhi can conquer the roof of the Asian continent, why can't he conquer the Kunlun Mountains and the Sea of Stars?

Pei Min also boldly let him practice, and sure enough, he succeeded.

"This real person doesn't show his face, Pei Shuai has never used Gao June, and he thought that he was not capable enough, so it turned out that he was of great use......"

Gao Shi's face was festive, as long as there were some people with strategic vision, they could see the significance of Maduo City.

Pei Min is also quite complacent, this is the benefit of the traverser, if he didn't know that Gao Xianzhi had the reputation of "King of the Mountains" and conquered the Pamirs, he would never dare to break through the sky with this strategy.

Feng Changqing said: "Under the city of Maduo, the war in Qinghai Lake is almost understood!" ”

Pei Min looked at the battle report in his hand and said with a smile: "It seems that Chang Qing is also full of confidence in the loyal heir. ”

Feng Changqing did not hesitate to praise Wang Zhonghei: "Deputy Jie Du of Wang worked under the command of the last general for a few years, when he was less than fifteen years old, and he already had the temperament of a famous general. After Pei Shuai and all these years of training, I am afraid that the military level is even higher. Pei Shuai opened the key to victory for him, how could he not grasp the truth? However, the marshal of Tibet, Dazarukon, is not easy to deal with, and there should be a battle of wits and courage between them. ”

Pei Min saw that the situation in the battle report was the same as Feng Changqing's judgment, and said with a smile: "You are right, they did have a wonderful battle." It's a pity that there is no next time. Dazarugon, has gone to ......"

Feng Changqing's face was dumbfounded.

Pei Min said: "In order to keep the fire for Tubo, he personally lured the enemy and captured it by the loyal heir. The loyal heir respects his loyalty, has a great feeling of sympathy, and treats him politely. But he said, 'As a Tibetan general, how can there be a reason to eat the enemy's rice grain?' After being captured, he did not get a drop of water and died of suicide. ”

As soon as Pei Min's voice fell, everyone in the tent couldn't help but be in awe.

In any era, such loyal martyrs deserve respect, regardless of whether they are friends or enemies.

Pei Min said: "Even if it is an enemy, such a hero should be respected. Let the loyal heir send someone to contact Tibet and send Dazarugon's body back, without any neglect. ”

As he continued to watch, he suddenly couldn't help laughing, and said: "Remember to make the etiquette grander, after all, what a big gift he gave us, we can't be wronged." ”

It turned out that in the war report sent by Wang Zhonghe, in addition to the grain and grass in Maduo City, there was also a large amount of grain in Fuqi City.

The two most critical cities in Qinghai Lake, one is Fu Qi City, and the other is Maduo City.

Fu Qi City is the fortress of Qinghai Lake, and controlling Fu Qi City is equivalent to controlling Qinghai Lake.

The city of Maduo is the fortress of the upper plateau, and the control of Maduo City means that it controls the connection between Qinghai Lake and the Tubo Plateau.

Both of these places are battlegrounds.

As you can imagine, it is also a place where Tibet stores grain.

Because Maduo City was attacked, as long as it succeeded, the grain stored would be owned by the Tang Dynasty.

This is also the reason why Pei Min would talk about additional food sources in the first place.

However, the terrain of Maduo City is precipitous, and there are not many soldiers in the city, so the food saved is naturally limited.

The place where there is really enough food is Fu Qi City, and Fu Qi City is the place where the Tibetan army gathers.

Dazarugon also defended the city in Fuqi, and the grain and grass in the city were enough to sustain an army of 100,000 for a year.

Pei Min is not blushing, but he feels that as long as Dazarugan is not stupid, he will not choose the behavior of the enemy.

Even if he wanted to give up Fu Qi City, he would not leave the grain and grass to the Tang army.

But the situation is slightly different.

Instead of leaving the grain to the Tang army, Dazarugon chose another method: before leaving, he burned the grain and opened a warehouse to let the people of Fuqi City go to the warehouse to get grain.

This is also the reason why Zhao Yizhen arrived half an hour late.

If Zhao Yizhen acted according to the original plan and pursued immediately, the stock of 100,000 troops in the city would be gone.

Zhao Yizhen considered the overall situation, and chose to divide the troops on his own initiative, while sticking to the granary, maintaining the order of Fu Qi City, prohibiting the people from taking grain, and fighting the fire at the same time, so it was delayed for half an hour.

It can also be seen from this that Dazarugon was already ready to take up justice, and he took the first step to see through Wang Zhonghe's plan.

It's just that the outcome has been decided, and there is no power to return to heaven......

Now, with the blessing of Toda Zalugong, the Tang army has captured a large amount of grain and grass from Fuqi City and Maduo City, which is enough for the needs of 100,000 troops for a year.

It's more joyful than a big win!

Pei Min did not hesitate to order: "Let Niu Cyclamen count all the grain and put it in storage, and transport the food from the big and small Bolu to the front line to supply our army." At the same time, Zhang Jiuling was transferred to Qinghai Lake, so that he could appease the people and take charge of the administrative affairs of Qinghai Lake. Tell him that from today on, Qinghai Lake is the territory of my Datang. All institutional and cultural policies are in line with the imperial court, and the court has applied for a two-year tax exemption for Qinghai Lake to help development. ”

Speaking of this, Pei Min slapped his hands on the table and said loudly: "Then order Wang Zhonghei, let him be in charge of the protection of Qinghai Lake, and choose another 50,000 Helong soldiers to enter the Western Regions to listen to my dispatch!" ”

This last sentence, Pei Min is full of confidence!
