Chapter 210: The Hexi Corridor is in an emergency again
The Hexi Corridor was in a hurry again and again, in Chang'an, where the night was shrouded, Gu Qing sat alone in the prison of Dali Temple, and the jailer had been helping to inquire about the news of the Hexi Corridor, Su Dingfang and Wei Chigong were struggling to defend it, Li Er had already sent three reinforcements, and he was worried about how Tubo could force Su Dingfang and Wei Chigong to such a point.
It was already night, and Li Er sat in his Yanqing hall, the candle flame shining on his gloomy face, looking at the battle reports sent by the Hexi Corridor again and again.
Cheng Biting Jin, Niu Jinda, and Qin Qiong have been standing outside the Yanqing Hall to ask for battle, and they have been standing for five hours, and none of them have left.
"Erlang, it's getting late." Empress Eldest Sun brought Li Erduan a cup of tea.
"Are they still outside?" asked Li Er.
Empress Eldest Sun nodded, stood up from the heavy Li Er, walked out of the Yanqing Palace, looked at the three generals who had followed her for half her life, and said, "Go back, I have my own thoughts." ”
"Your Majesty, let the last general go!" Cheng Yanjin said, "My old Cheng must arrest Songtsan Ganbu back." ”
"Let's go back." Li Er said tiredly.
……
The war in the Hexi Corridor was concerned about the people's hearts, and Li Tai sat in his literature museum and watched the scholars and scholars talking impassionedly, feeling depressed.
There was a lot of discussion in the literature hall, some people said that His Majesty should send General Li Jing, and some people said that he should talk about peace with Tibet......
"Enough of you!" Li Tai slapped the table and scolded angrily, "You guys are talking about the country one by one, and you have the ability to go to the Hexi Corridor to fight with Tubo, so it's better to compile a good map for this king!" ”
As soon as Li Tai scolded like this, the literature hall immediately fell silent.
The people in Chang'an City were also talking about the war in the Hexi Corridor, and the dwarf came back and came to Yang Sheng's side, "Yang Tou'er, the monk said it's okay, I'll come back." ”
Yang Sheng nodded and looked at a stranger wandering around the village, looking at the other party's demeanor and footsteps, he asked the dwarf, "Which guy has whose eyes, he has always come to the village to investigate." ”
The dwarf glanced at it and recalled, "This guy, he is a lieutenant general, his name is Li Junxian, who is stationed at Xuanwu Gate, and our eyeliner said that this guy is quite close to Su Dingfang." ”
"That's not right!" The dwarf said, "He shouldn't be the eyeliner sent by the palace." ”
"That's it, it shouldn't be wrong." Yang Sheng said, "When the palace sent someone to protect the study, it was this person who led the soldiers and horses. ”
"Do you want me to do him?" The dwarf was eager to try.
Yang Sheng slapped the short man on the back of the head with a violent shudder, "Do it, do it!" I know how to do it all day long, is he a person in the palace, can we move if we touch this nail, I am afraid that the person in the palace will not spare Gu Qing. ”
"Yes, yes." The dwarf looked thoughtful.
"It's right for you." Yang Sheng kicked the short man's buttocks, "Do you understand!" I don't know what to pretend to understand, that's right! Do you understand, hurry up and go back to the monk, I'm sorry to look at you. ”
"Hey, I'm going." The dwarf smiled and left.
Zhang Yugong and his group wore masks to protect a carriage and stopped in front of the lake tower, Wu Mei and Di Renjie stepped out of the carriage with some gifts in their hands.
Sister Yue stood on the platform of the lake tower and looked at the people who protected the carriage, they were wearing masks and holding long knives in scabbards in their hands, a kind of murderous aura honed from the battlefield and the sea of blood permeated these people, Sister Yue whispered, "This is Gu Qing's Qing Gang, this murderous aura is really amazing." ”
"Hmm" Gao Yang, who heard Sister Yue's words, poked out his head and found that Wu Mei was coming, "She still dares to come"
"Don't mess around." Sister Yue whispered to Gao Yang, and walked down to Moon Lake to greet Wu Mei in person.
The women's army guarding around didn't know who was coming, and when they saw Sister Yue personally greeting them, they knew that the identity of the person who came was not simple.
"You are Wu Mei, I have heard of you, and Gu Qing grew up and became husband and wife in the Taoist temple." Sister Yue said to Wu Mei with a smile, and looked at Di Renjie on the side, "Boy, I guessed correctly, this woman is Gu Qing's wife." ”
"It's my wife." Eleven-year-old Di Renjie replied.
"I've seen Sister Yue." Wu Mei said politely, "I heard my husband talk about Sister Yue a few times, so I came to visit." ”
"Come in and sit down." Sister Yue invited and said.
When she walked into Moon Lake, Wu Mei saw Gao Yang, but she just smiled slightly and didn't say anything.
Gao Yang twisted his head to the side and didn't look at Wu Mei.
Sister Yue was also helpless in the face of the strange atmosphere.
A few people were talking in the lake building, and Gao Yang and Wu Mei often met with each other, and the two of them never said a word from beginning to end.
A fast horse came to Chang'an, and the rider was a soldier, and the armor on his body was still bloody, "Hexi Corridor Emergency!" The Tubo army has increased by another 100,000, and the Hexi Corridor is in danger! ”
This war report touched the hearts of the entire people of Chang'an.
Seeing this battle report, Li Er's heart was violently twitched, and the Tubo army increased by another 100,000! Fang Xuanling and the eldest grandson Wuji were nervous.
"This Songtsen Gampo, is he trying to start a national war with me!" Li Er squeezed the battle report in his hand fiercely.
Songtsan Gampo is playing really, this time I finally saw it clearly, Fang Xuanling has always wondered where Songtsan Gampo came from, and dared to argue with the Tang Dynasty now, after reading the battle report, I knew that Songtsan Gampo was joining forces with those small countries in the southwest, and Tianzhu gave tens of thousands of war elephants to Tibet.
Dali Temple, in the dungeon......
Li Tai was also talking to Gu Qing about these things, "Are those war elephants the same as the elephants of the small southern countries?"
"It's different!" Gu Qing thought in his heart, the war elephant was tamed hundreds of years ago, and the war elephant was used in the war between the Persian Empire and Alexander BC, and it has continued until now that the war elephant has long become a weapon of war, and Tianzhu is the ancient Yindu (anti-harmony) They tamed the war elephant thousands of years ago, Tianzhu must have had something wrong, they said that they would not participate in the war.
This Songtsen Gampo is really eloquent, when did he stretch his hand so long! Even the elephants from Southeast Asia have moved, and it is not far away, and Tubo is a generation of Tianzhu and Southeast Asia when it goes south.
Tens of thousands of hill-like war elephants are enough to level the Hexi Corridor.
"Gu Qing, you should tell me, how to deal with something different." Li Tai said anxiously.
"This war elephant is really not easy to deal with." Gu Qing thought in his heart that tens of thousands of war elephants were running like an earthquake, and it was not easy for Su Dingfang and Wei Chigong to hold on to it until now, and it was a loss that they could hold on for so many days, thinking that he would not be able to make much movement with a Tubo, and Songtsen Gampo spent a lot of money to take down the Hexi Corridor, which was a big ambition.
