Chapter 712: Long Nights and Many Dreams
Surprised by such a long range, they pulled out their javelins and saw a letter tied to the barrel of the gun. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info they unleashed the letter and returned to the camp, and handed the letter and javelin to the leader of the army, Su Gan Chengji.
Sending troops to Qiuzi this time was exactly the idea that Gangan Chengji gave to the big leader Songzan, Songtsan had already heard that his righteous brother Gao Jun wanted to take Qiuzi, but Gao Jun and Xizhou did not trust the soldiers, was it appropriate for them to go so rashly? It would be bad if there was a misunderstanding between the two sides due to the lack of communication between the two sides.
He looked at the javelin, and then opened the letter to see what it said. He came up with a method after thinking about it for a long time, and finally bought off Princess Wencheng's maids, and only then did he let the princess know about the war in Qiuzi.
Of course, the princess wanted to help Xizhou, so she went to ask Songzan, and Songtsan made up his mind and asked him to lead an army to help Gao Jun. It was not easy for Su Gan Chengji to plan this matter, and he would never return empty-handed and let go of this opportunity to make meritorious contributions.
Guo Beifeng replied, "This city has belonged to Xizhou and no longer belongs to Qiuzi." I don't know if the Tibetan army wants to take the Kangli City of Qiuci or the Kangli City of Xizhou? Looking forward to the recovery. ”
When he looked at the javelin again, he was also taken aback, if there was something to ignite the fire tied to the head of the gun, then his grain and grass would probably have been burned. He asked people to reply, "We are on the order of Songzan, the great leader of Tubo, to help Xizhou Gaobijia, please open the city gate, let our army enter the city to rest, and replenish grain and grass." ”
At the head of the city, Su Shi gave the idea to the person who wrote the reply letter, "Change 8,000 to 3,000, 3,000 to 8,000," so the letter from the city to shoot back became, "Don't drive 3,000 troops into the hinterland of Qiuzi, the city of Kangli is small and outnumbered, and it is not enough to settle 3,000 friendly troops." Behind the city, there are 8,000 people and horses stationed in Xizhou, and there are many people who need grain and grass, which is difficult. ”
After receiving the letter, the Tibetan army immediately set out for the west without delay.
……
Gao Jun received the report, and the Tubo army marched to the back of the Xizhou joint camp and camped overnight, and did not go any further. Gao Jun said, "That's interesting! ”
This is obviously deliberately blocking the retreat of the people of Xizhou, and also compressing Gao Jun's space for maneuvering, and blocking the nearest road for Gao Jun to return to Shisha Yacheng. To the north is the fortified city of Qiuzi City, and to the south is blocked by them, in case Su Fa goes out of the city to attack and disturb, where will they retreat?
Heida, Ashina Sheer and others all expressed their intentions, and they all saw that the Tubo people were unclear. Zhai Zhining said, "Lord Gao, why don't we transfer back the two thousand people from Futu City in Baicheng." ”
Gao Jun said no, he couldn't let the direction of Baicheng be too reassured, and there must always be some horses to contain him. But he asked Heida and Ashina Sheer to take their headquarters and distance themselves from Gao Jun's main camp, at least about twenty miles. At the same time, Heida was monitoring the direction of Xinhecheng to the west.
If something happens, you can respond in time, but you don't have to gather in one place to fall into passivity. In normal times, the 3,000 people in Tibet can be monitored from three sides, and there is nothing to worry about them.
It stands to reason that when Tubo arrives, whether it is an enemy or a friend, they should always send a letter to contact them overnight, but they do not squeak or speak, and they also arrange guards for Gao Jun's men and horses in three directions.
At the head of Qiuzi City, Su Fa also received the news, and after the initial suspicion, he also saw some doorways - the later ones did not seem to be very friendly with the first ones. Besides, Xizhou has already said that it will withdraw its troops, how can it increase its troops?
Tubo has always disliked to make his position clear too early, and this Su Fa knows something. On the contrary, Gao Jun set up the camps more firmly, and there was no intention of retreating.
Su Vaxin said, anyway, I will sit firmly at the head of Qiuzi City, if it is cheap, I will go up, and if it is not cheap, I will hide, and see what you have to do. Just thinking about it, his subordinates reported that a thousand people were separated from the Tubo camp and passed through the middle of Gao Jun's main camp and the Ashina Sheer Department in the east.
"Are they going to fight?" Su Va asked.
Nali also came, looked at it, and said, "No, the Tibetans are coming towards us." ”
In the main camp of the Xizhou coalition army under the city, Don't drive and order, "Don't move, I don't see what they mean, and acting rashly may cause misunderstanding." ”
The camp of Ashina Sheer to the east did not move. Ashina Sheer scolded, "What is it to insert it so suddenly, how to stir up trouble!" Soon, a thousand Tibetan camel soldiers arrived at the foot of the city of Qiuzinan, where they set up their horns.
Gao Jun said, "Which one is this playing?" He got up and said that he wanted to go to the Tubo camp to have a look, but Fan Ying and Siqing didn't let him go, "I have to watch them again in the middle of the night, I want to go, it's better to wait for dawn." ”
Before dawn, a sergeant came to report to Gao Beijia, saying that Su Fa asked Xizhou Beijia to go to the city to discuss matters again. Gao Jun, Fan Ying, and Siqing led a hundred guards to the south gate of Qiuzi City, which was only two or three miles away from the 1,000 people in Tubo.
Su Fa smiled at the head of the city, and said to Gao Jun in a loud voice, "Don't drive Gao, fortunately you didn't leave, I almost forgot something, this important matter is extremely important, if you leave, I will also have to chase to Kangli City to tell you." ”
Gao Jun asked, "What's the big deal?" What I can forget is not much in my opinion. ”
Su Fa said, "Pheasant Lin, that young city lord of Futu City, Lord Gao hasn't seen him for a few days, right?" He's in my city! His father is willing to let you use four or five thousand people, and you lost him, are you in a hurry? Would you like to meet him? ”
When Gao Jun heard this, he turned around and was about to leave, "It turns out that this is the case, let's talk about it tomorrow!" ”
Su Fa stopped, "I'm afraid he will die when it gets dawn, or I'll take him to the city with Master Gao, and we'll discuss something related to him." ”
"Do you want to exchange him for my Shaya City?"
Su Hua said, "No, Shaya City was originally my Qiuzi's, and Kangli City, I will exchange him and you for the two cities, what does the tall man think?" ”
Gao Jun shook his head and said, "It's not worth it, it's not worth it." It's not me who is afraid that something will happen to the young city lord, but you Su Va. If the pheasant comes to you and makes any mistakes, I'm afraid that the Great Khan of Ashina, the city of Futu, will pull the rest of his men and horses to Qiuzi to fight hard," Gao Jun said to Fan Ying and the others, "Let's go." ”
These people really left.
Fan Ying and Siqing asked, "Could it be that the pheasant came and they let them be caught again?" ”
Gao Jun said, "Unlikely, you think, if Su Fa really held the pheasant in his hand, he should have looked for me a long time ago." Why wait until midnight to come to me...... He didn't leave the city, and in the middle of the night he caught two fugitives outside the city...... Joke! Maybe Suvar got some news about the pheasant,"
Siqing said, "We haven't seen any settlement between the 1,000 Tubo people under the city and the city...... So you're saying that the pheasant is in the camp of the Tibetans right now? ”
Gao Jun snorted, "The Tubo people still have some concerns, it seems that I should really go to the Tubo camp in the middle of the night, otherwise I will have a lot of dreams at night." ”
But Fan Ying thinks that if the senior brother crashes into it like this, it is not good to say whether it is good or bad. Gao Jun said, "If I don't take some risks, I'm too sorry for Ashina's thin cloth, I must go, at least to know who brought the Tubo people here." ”
Fan Ying and Siqing both said that they would go with him to the Tubo camp. Gao Jun said, "The two of you are in charge of the camp together, keeping an eye on the 1,000 Tubo people, if the pheasant is in their hands, you can't rob people clearly, but try to prevent him from being sent into the city again." The Tubo camp asked me to go with Zhai Zhining. ”
After returning to the camp, Zhai Zhining picked up his simple knife and got on the horse with Gao Jun and left the camp. Fan Ying and Siqing were sent to the camp and watched him leave the camp and sneak into the darkness.
