Chapter 101 The depressed Ruqi Zanggu
Chapter 101 The depressed Ruqi Zanggu
On July 20, the fourth year of Wude, the first case of caesarean section was more smooth than expected, and on the tenth day, Li Xiuning successfully removed the stitches.
Looking at himself in the mirror, stroking the scar on his abdomen, Li Xiuning muttered to himself: "The scar is a medal for a warrior, I have fought so many battles, and the wound has never been as ugly as this one." ”
He Yue'er took a towel to wipe Li Xiuning's body, and said with a smile: "Your Royal Highness Princess, your body is getting richer and plumper!" ”
"It's better to be richer!" Li Xiuning said with a wry smile: "Chen Lang said that it is best for children to eat their own mother and milk, but this guy is too good to eat, my own female water is not enough for him to eat, so let's find him a milk and mother!" ”
He Yue'er complained: "I don't know what the master has been doing recently, although the leader is outside, it is inconvenient to come back, but I have to get a letter, right?" ”
When Li Xiuning heard this, a trace of resentment appeared on his face.
"Maybe it's because of the tension of the war!" Li Xiuning put on her clothes and came to the crib in the house. Her son is now sleeping soundly, with a small mouth pouting, and from time to time bubbles of female are popping up.
Li Xiuning looked at her son with a satisfied expression.
At this moment, the little guy seemed to sense Li Xiuning's arrival, closed his eyes and touched Li Xiuning's hand, his little hand grabbed Li Xiuning's index finger tightly, very hard.
Li Xiuning smiled lightly: "The little guy is really powerful......
He Yue'er gently lowered her voice and said, "It's so strange, Your Royal Highness the Princess, you see that you and the concubine are not fat, and the little boy is very rich!" ”
"It's good to be rich!" Li Xiuning frowned slightly and said: "When Chen Lang was born, the Hou Mo Chen clan had already declined, if there was really a way, the family would not leave Chen Lang alone in Chang'an!" ”
Speaking of this, Li Xiuning looked at He Yue'er and said: "It is said that Chen Lang was Su Hu's ink scholar back then, but because he hated Su Hu, he was forced by Su Hu and had to join the army?" ”
He Yue'er nodded and said, "Not bad!" ”
"So where is Su Hu now?" Li Xiuning said: "Is he still alive?" ”
"Alive?"
"Alive?" Li Xiuning said angrily with a look on his face: "Why didn't he die?" ”
"If Su Hu is killed, he will be truly liberated!" He Yue'er said: "At the beginning, Dr. Hou Mo Chen made a move, which made people break the bones of Su Hu's body, and now he can only lie on the bed, his wife Dou is happy with his lover in front of Su Hu almost every day, and it is said that Su Hu's eyes have blood and tears......"
Li Xiuning heard this: "I see, then forget it, let him live rather than die!" ”
Speaking of this, Li Xiuning looked at He Yue'er and asked, "Has anything happened recently?" ”
"Big deal?" He Yue'er thought for a while and said: "No, except for Feng An's invitation to the court, it seems that there is a faint rumor that Tubo has invaded Liangzhou!" ”
"Liangzhou?" Li Xiuning was shocked: "When did this happen?" ”
"It's been a few days, and all the major families have known about it!" He Yue'er said: "It is said that Tubo Subi Ruqi Zanggu led eleven Dongdai with a total of more than 50,000 men and horses to attack Liangzhou!" ”
"No, the main palace wants to enter the palace!" Li Xiuning was about to pull out her fingers, but her son was holding her fingers tightly. Li Xiuning sighed helplessly and said, "Forget it, give the prince a little news, our brother and sister haven't seen each other for a while, let him come to Qinglin!" ”
He Yue'er said: "The slave obeys the order!" ”
……
The Tibetan army fled all the way, in fact, although the Tibetan and Tang dynasties did not fight. However, they fought with the Sui Dynasty army. At the beginning of Yang Guang's ascension to the throne of the Sui Dynasty, Murong Fuyun led his troops to invade Longxi, Yang Guang was furious, he first sent Pei Ju to envoy Gaochang State, and won them over to fight Tuyuhun, and Pei Ju also suggested to Yang Guang after returning to China that Tuyuhun should be eliminated in order to control the Western Regions.
The Sui army concentrated superior forces, adopted the tactics of relentless pursuit and encirclement on all sides, and defeated Tuyuhun several times, wiped out its main force, and eliminated the threat of Tuyuhun to the northwest of the Sui Dynasty.
At that time, the Tubo army had helped Tuyuhun resist the Sui army, but they were beaten very badly.
Although the Tubo army was defeated and retreated in Gulang Town, they were accustomed to running if they couldn't fight, so in the vast grassland, the Tubo army was defeated but not chaotic, except for leaving some wounded soldiers who couldn't run due to injuries, even the abandoned war horses were all killed, the meat and horse skins on the horse corpses were peeled off, and a pile of horse bones was thrown to the Tang army.
The sky was getting dark, and the exhausted Vietnamese cavalry soldiers temporarily gave up the pursuit, gathered their troops and camped to recuperate, and now the two sides could finally take a breath.
However, this is only temporary, and tomorrow morning these Vietnamese cavalry will continue to pounce on them like wolves, brutally tearing at the Tibetan army, constantly bleeding them, and making them completely collapse.
The fierce Tibetan army is really not afraid of the Vietnamese cavalry. However, the most fatal thing was that once the Vietnamese cavalry showed signs of defeat, the hook and sickle lancers under Chen Ying's command immediately advanced like a wall, skewering the Tibetan army into piles of meat skewers.
The camp was full of bonfires, and the soldiers of the Tang Army, whose blood had not yet been washed, sat around the fire and laughed, using sharpened wooden sticks to wear strips of meat cut from dead horses, roasting them with oil, and began to gobble them up when they were half-cooked.
The momentum of the victorious army is completely different from the defeat of the battle, they have high morale and are full of self-confidence, even if a mountain stands in front of them, they can kick it over! I believe that if they encounter the Tibetan army again, they will not hesitate to pounce on it and tear it to pieces, instead of being afraid as before and retreating. The opponent is still so cunning and fierce, and it has not changed, it is only themselves who have changed.
Chen Ying, Ashina Simo, Zhou Qing, Su Dingfang, Guo Xiaoke, Luo Shixin and others sat around the fire, there was a small pot on the fire, in the pot, a large piece of horse meat was rolling with meat juice, and then sprinkled with a little salt, what seasoning, naturally there was no need to think about it, but the hungry everyone felt that horse meat was better than the delicacies of the mountains and seas.
Everyone was hungry, so Luo Shixin casually found a broken arrow, pulled out the arrowhead, and used the shaft of the arrow to insert a piece of horse meat and munch on it.
Guo Xiaoke directly held a dagger, and also inserted a piece of horse meat and gnawed it. Chen Ying was not accustomed to the earthy smell of horse meat, so he poured the boiling broth into the fried noodles, kneaded the fried flour into a small dough, and threw it into his mouth without a mouthful.
Zhou Qing handed a piece of roasted yak meat to Chen Ying, who took it and ate it in a big gulp, eating his mouth full of gravy.
Luo Shixin dropped his horse meat and asked with a smile: "Dadu Hu, how does this yak meat taste?" ”
"It's unpalatable, it's unpalatable...... It's just so unpalatable! Chen Ying said as he ate quickly.
As soon as Luo Shixin heard this, he didn't believe it at all, Chen Ying's mouth was tricky, he knew. Where can I eat general food? Looking at Chen Ying's appearance, it looks like it is unpalatable.
Luo Shixin snatched Chen Ying's yak meat, didn't even bother to speak, and directly gave him a thumbs up.
Chen Ying wanted to take back the yak meat in Luo Shixin's hands, but where did Chen Ying take Luo Shixin. The crowd burst into laughter.
After a long time, Chen Ying watched Luo Shixin take the last bite, and said unsatisfied: "Is there anything else?" ”
"Yes...... Yes...... General Luo, it's going to be right away! ”
Chen Ying looked at Zhang Shigui, who was thinking, and said, "Shigui, what are you thinking?" ”
Zhang Shigui frowned and said, "I found that the Tubo people are not fleeing at all, they are just luring us to go around in circles on the West Sea!" ”
"It's good to find out!" Chen Ying nodded and said: "The Tubo people are not dead yet, they still want to take revenge, they are waiting now!" ”
Zhang Shigui said: "What are you waiting for? ”
Chen Yingdao: "Wait for a good opportunity!" ”
Chen Ying pointed to the night sky and said: "The weather here in the snow field is different from the Central Plains, from the end of August to the beginning of September every year, there will inevitably be a blizzard. ”
When the people heard this, their colors changed suddenly.
Chen Ying said: "Don't worry, how can this Dadu Protector be unprepared, they will only find empty joy in the end!" ”
Zhang Shigui suddenly frowned and said: "If Dadu Hu really leaves this Tubo army behind, then please act quickly and directly send troops to Dafeichuan, otherwise once Tubo breathes and recovers its fighting spirit, with the heavenly blessing of the snowfield, desperately resists, our army will definitely suffer heavy casualties!" ”
Chen Ying waved his hand again and again and said: "Don't be in a hurry, the God-blessed place of fart, the so-called God-blessed place of others, is actually altitude sickness!" ”
"Altitude sickness? What's that? Guo Xiaoke asked curiously.
Chen Yingdao: "It can be explained in this way that the water and soil are not adapted. For example, when we northerners reach the south, we will be dizzy and weak, and the Tibetan people live in the snowfield, where the air is thin, and we in the Central Plains will have difficulty breathing and weak limbs, and now we are already on the snowfield, but haven't you noticed that we don't have anything to do now? ”
The crowd asked strangely, "What's going on?" ”
"Any adaptation process has an adaptation process!" Chen Ying said with a smile: "Now the Tubo people take us around the West Sea, but it helps us adapt to the snowy climate, wait, the Tubo people have them crying!" ”
Chen Ying was at war with the Tibetans, and what he was most afraid of was altitude sickness. Scientists refer to plateaus above 3,000 meters above sea level. This is because the climatic characteristics (e.g., low oxygen pressure, hypoxia, high radiation, and high cold) are significantly different from those of the plains at this altitude.
When people arrive in such an environment, they must carry out a series of adjustments in the body in order to adapt. This problem cannot be overcome by will, and in severe cases, it will be fatal. However, Ruqi Zanggu pretended to be clever, and he led the Tibetan cavalry to circle around Haidong (2125), Haibei (3080), Guoluo (3719), and Golmud (4533).
Unconsciously, the Xiao cavalry and the Yue cavalry under Chen Ying gradually adapted to the plateau climate.
Drag the fat thin and the thin across the thin, this is one of the experiences summed up by the defeat of the Tubo people and the Central Plains Dynasty. However, what made Ruqi Zang Gu depressed was that it was clear that the Tubo soldiers were already tired into dogs, why were the Tang army soldiers fine?
Actually, Ruqi Zanggu didn't know. The main force of these Tang Army, two-thirds of the servant army of all ethnic groups in the Western Regions, the average altitude of the Western Regions is more than 3,000 meters, especially the average altitude of Gaochang Kingdom is more than 3,400 meters.
The soldiers of the Xiao Cavalry Army have good physical fitness and have adapted to the plateau climate.
But Ruqi Zanggu felt that God had abandoned them!
