"How? What do Xilie and Ziyin think? Gao Xianzhi picked up the teacup and took a light breath.

Guo Xi pondered for a long time, felt that there was no problem, and slowly shook his head.

Yang Qing had another fatal thing in his heart, and he finally had the opportunity to ask at this moment.

"Gao Gong, may I ask ...... our allies?"

"They're stationed in the northeast of Shattered Leaf City right now, what's the matter?" Gao Xianzhi felt a little strange, why did Yang Qing ask them first? You must know that the Anxi army will recruit the auxiliary troops of the local Zhuhu tribe many times, but it has never expected to rely on them to attack the fortifications, that is, to strengthen the momentum and protect the grain and grass.

"They're in their own right?"

"Not bad. The living habits of the Hu people are very different from those of the Han people, and it is more appropriate to separate them into an army. ”

Yang Qing was a little confused, this was not the same as he imagined. I thought that even if the Bakhana and Qarlu troops kept a certain distance from the Anxi army, they would at least have to send a weighty person to the Chinese army commander's tent to wait for the dispatch. With such a loose management, it is no wonder that the Qarlu Department has the courage and conditions to stab the Anxi Army in the back!

Yang Qing closed his eyes and recalled what he had seen in the history books about the Battle of Talas - the prince of Shi hated Gao Xianzhi for killing his father and destroying the country, and asked Da Shi and the surrounding Zhuhu to send troops to take revenge, and Abu, the governor of Dashi Khorasan, sent Qi Yad to lead 40,000 elites and more than 100,000 people from Zhuhu to form a coalition army to advance step by step towards the four towns of Anxi. Gao Xianzhi decided to strike preemptively, leading the main force of Anxi to do his best, intending to surprise the invading enemy, but when he arrived at the city of Talas, he found that the Great Food Army had been stationed in the city and attacked the city. Five days later, reinforcements arrived, and the two sides fought for a day. During the night, the Qarlu tribe mutinied, and the Tang army was defeated.

One of the details is that when the Qarlu troops attacked the Tang army camp tent in front from behind, the hoplite cavalry of the Great Food Army quickly rushed to the front of the battle and went straight to the Anxi Central Army. This is a long-planned mutiny! It was not at all that Ge Lulu saw that the Tang army was in a state of flux, and he made a temporary move.

It also turned out that after the Battle of Talas, the biggest winner was not Da Shi, but Qarluq. The Battle of Talas did greatly hurt the vitality of the Anxi army, but it was impossible for Da Shi to gain a foothold in Central Asia immediately, and the remnants of the Umayyad Dynasty in China had not been purged, and the Tubo Empire in the south was eyeing it again. On the contrary, it was Qarluq, who was supported by the Great Food after the Battle of Talas, and it only took more than ten years to occupy the broken leaves and become the overlord of the Western Regions for a while!

No way! Although it is not known whether Qarlu has completed the collusion with the Great Eclipse, the current situation is too passive! This is always a bomb, and it is still from time to time, if this bomb is not lifted, the Anxi army will still be unable to escape the fate of the defeat in the battle of Talas!

You have to find a way to fully control every move of the Qarluq......

"Gao Gong, who is the leader of this Qarlu Division?"

"It's their Ye Hu leader, plotting to fall Ganda." Gao Xianzhi had obviously heard Yang Qing's meaning, "If Ziyin has anything to say, you might as well say it directly." ”

Yang Qing pouted, the name of this Hu person is really ugly, what a tribal leader, they are called Yeju, and the name of this leader is actually called Decline and Death!

Since Gao Xianzhi asked, this matter must be done with his approval, Yang Qing didn't want to hide it from him, but just wanted to find a better reason for Gao Xianzhi to agree to spy on Ge Lulu.

Yang Qing cleared his throat and spoke carefully: "Gao Gong, a few of us will say a few words here in private, and no outsiders will listen, and the last general will be bold." ”

Gao Xianzhi nodded slightly, and listened to Yang Qing continue to speak: "If it is not my race, its heart will be different......

Speaking of this, Yang Qing glanced at Gao Xianzhi with some concern, he remembered that Gao Xianzhi was originally from Goguryeo, and his expression was not different, so he dared to continue. In fact, this is Yang Qing's heart, Gao Xianzhi had followed his father to Qiuzi when he was a child, and he never thought that he was a foreigner from his bones.

"Although Bahanna and Qarlu belong to my Tang Dynasty, after all, they have many years of local roots, and their language, living customs, and beliefs and worship are not consistent with my Tang people. Bahanna was attacked by the Great Food Army, but now he sent the main army to fight on the northern front from Gao Gong, presumably he still remembered his hometown in his heart, so the army was at risk of instability; Now that the Qarlu tribe is being sandwiched between Tibet and the Great Food, life is not easy, and they are bent on expanding their territory to the north, which will inevitably have a dispute with Bahanna. The two armies were put aside separately......"

Gao Xianzhi's eyes froze: "Yizi Yin Gao Jian, what should I do?" ”

"Let his leading lieutenant general enter the account of the high marshal and wait for dispatch! In the second camp, it is also necessary for us to send troops to communicate with each other! Yang Qing was waiting for this question.

Gao Xianzhi's face changed slightly: "Isn't this the practice of protons entering the court?" ”

Yang Qing was confident and talked eloquently: "If it is said to be a proton, it can be counted!" However, didn't Gao Gong see that my Anxi joined the army and also entered the other party's big account? If you want to talk about protons, you are just hostages of each other. ”

"But in this way, it is clear that you don't trust the allies......" Gao Xianzhi was still hesitating, this kind of practice had never been done before.

"Gao Gong!" Yang Qingzheng said, "Each other is a proton, just an appearance." What Yang Qing was worried about was actually that the commanders of the three armies could not be unified, and they could not be ordered to prohibit it, such as making the same arm. This is a good way to communicate! ”

Gao Xianzhi was silent for a long time, and finally nodded slowly: "Yuanji, this matter will be handed over to you." ”

"Gao Gong!" Yang Qing saw that Gao Xianzhi agreed, so he simply struck while the iron was hot, "There is a powerful person under the last general, who had traveled to and from the Central Plains in the Western Regions in his early years, and was quite familiar with the Zhuhu tribe...... What about the Qarluq? It's also a good experience. ”

Although Gao Xianzhi felt strange, since Yang Qing had already spoken, it was inconvenient to refuse. To put it bluntly, sending hostages to the Allies didn't expect much effect.

"Then there is Lao Ziyin, who is your subordinate, ......?"

Yang Qing smiled slightly: "His name is Shang Han, and his name is Ganting." He once served in Zuo Wuwei, and luckily won the second place in the 16th Wei Yanwu Cavalry Shooting, and he was passable and quite astute. ”

Gao Xianzhi nodded, there was nothing wrong with such a person. It's just that Guo Xi next to him heard this and glanced at Yang Qing in surprise.

Gao Xianzhi stood up: "Okay, everything has been agreed." I won't leave you to eat, two generals, please go back, prepare early, this time it will be a bad battle! Gao and Yuanji rushed to Broken Leaves overnight, and the Anxi Army will pull out the camp early tomorrow morning, just to make room for your Jian Yuwei! ”

"Hahaha! Thank you, Gao Gong! Guo Yang and Gao Xianzhi and Zhang Ji glanced at each other and laughed heartily.

On the ancient Huangsha road from Samtar to Dongcao, a small group of large food merchants were galloping on horseback. The leader's name is Ayiji, who is sweating profusely at the moment, and his eyes are full of anxiety.

There are only more than 20 caravans in total, which is too small compared to Ayiji's status, and it seems that he only brought a dozen or so people. The baskets of the empty horses carrying the goods were bumping up and down as the horses ran, and the weight of the goods carried must have been a little light. In such a chaotic period, it is a bit strange for such a small caravan to dare to go on the road. Fortunately, there are no pedestrians on the road at all, otherwise you must be confused.

Ayiji didn't have time to pay attention to the flaws around him, he only had one thought in his heart, he must rush to Broken Leaf within ten days to connect with Mouluo Ganda!

To this end, he carefully selected more than 20 horses that could last the most in his caravan, and only brought a dozen henchmen with extraordinary skills, and made up his mind to work day and night! He even hoped that what Lord Ziyad had feared would come true, and that was that he wouldn't need to use Broken Leaf at all to meet the troops who were plotting to defeat Ganda in Talas!

The world is bustling, all for profit. Ayiji worked so hard for a promise from Ziyad: "As long as you can meet with Mouluo Ganda within ten days, and bring him my intention and my handwritten letter, you will be the master of the trade road leading to the Green Mountains in the next twenty years!" ”

And on the Yellow Sand Road from Chiali to Whitewater City, there is also a group of people who are galloping on horseback. However, the number of people here is much larger than Ayiji's caravan.

Said's 3,000 Iron Horsemen!

Everywhere the army passed, rolling up the rolling sand and dust, stretching for several miles, like a raging yellow dragon, viciously rolling on the east bank of the medicine killing water.

Arabian horses are world-renowned for their endurance and bravery, and although they may be slightly inferior in speed to thoroughbreds such as the Dawan horse, Arabian horses are incredibly resilient and enduring, as well as their adaptability to harsh weather such as heat and cold, to make them the best companions and sidekicks of the Great Cannibal. This kind of horse, which has grown in the desert Gobi since childhood, is more adapted to the current environment than the Mongolian horse of the Tang Dynasty.

Unbeknownst to Said, General Ziyad's pre-battle deployment had been completely disrupted, and he was still faithfully carrying out his plan to intercept the Ansey army's retreat from Talas to Shattered Leaves. If he knew that the goal of the Anzai Army had now become to seize Talas from Shattered Leaf City, he wondered what he would think in his heart - the opposite direction often meant a complete change in the nature of the matter.

But Syed is lucky, his goal is still the key to this battle, whoever takes Talas first will gain the initiative on the battlefield, even if temporarily!

Tianbao is destined to be a sleepless night on June 15 of the tenth year.

Samtar's bannermen came out in all directions, conveying the latest orders of Ziyad; Ayiji traveled in the starry night to help Ziyad take the line of Qarluq's plot to defeat Ganda; Saeed and the army of Abdullah who followed him rushed to Talas to seize this strategic high ground; The main force stationed in Samtar under the leadership of Qi Yad himself will also set off tonight to join the allied forces of Zhuhu in Tuozhi City; Gao Xianzhi rushed to Broken Leaves overnight to preside over the opening of the Anxi Army tomorrow morning; Guo Xi and Yang Qing are going to rush back to Jian Yuwei and lead this strange army to officially set foot on the battlefield!

Yang Qing and Guo Xi galloped side by side, and inadvertently looked up, it was supposed to be a clear full moon night, but at this moment, dark clouds covered the moon!
