The situation is like this, and Duan Gupu can't help but put forward something repeatedly, he not only offered the treasure bribe to Ma Dingde, but also agreed to all the conditions put forward by the other party.

Privately, Ma Dingde distributed the treasures sent by Nanzhao to his subordinates and clansmen as the spoils of war, and then led the cavalry to Xilu to accept the surrender of Yimu Xun again.

A few days later, Yi Mu Xun was embarrassed, so he set up a simple pontoon bridge, and then withdrew to the south bank of Xilushui, and soon arrived at the foot of Huichuan City.

This city has long been occupied by the Ronin led by Liluoshi, and the governors and envoys who were originally placed here by Nanzhao were all killed, and their heads hung at the city gate - Liluoshi was triumphant, and the sixty Xifan armor soldiers (given to him by Zampu) around the sanitation pointed to Yimu Xun who led the defeated army past and shouted:

"Take the city of Sichuan today, destroy the governor of your family, and tomorrow the wealth of the entire Erhai Lake and Dianchi Lake will all belong to my Langqiong Zhao!"

"Damn!" Yi Mu Xun's eyes were almost bleeding and bursting with fire, but what could he do now, he could only swallow his anger, lead the defeated soldiers who were almost all disarmed, bury his hatred in his heart, and return to his royal capital.

Soon on the Papaya Ridge, Wei Gao and Gao Yue stood side by side, looking at the towering stage city between thousands of mountains and mountains, and the Xifan Fort that was interlocking on all sides, thought for a while, and then reached a consensus: "The purpose of this expedition to Lizhou and Shanzhou has been achieved, and it can be triumphant!" ”

Since the two armies of Dingwu and Fengyi went to war, it lasted more than two months, subdued the three departments of the Eastern Barbarians, built fifty-seven prefectures of the Prefecture, expanded the territory of nearly a thousand miles, and killed more than 3,700 of the first level of the Western Fan in the first battle of Papaya Ridge, and captured 1,400 prisoners, after which Wei Gao's forces were greatly expanded, according to his own words: As long as the three departments of the Eastern Barbarians were slightly cultivated, they could contain and monitor the Western Fan soldiers in Shanzhou, and within two or three years, the stronger our side, and the weaker the Western Fan in the Jiannan area, until Yi Song You conquered and suppressed the party, we gathered Xichuan, Dongchuan, The soldiers and horses of Banan and Xingyuan can completely pacify and recover Shanzhou.

As for now, as Gao Yue said, our army has achieved a great victory, but the supplies are also running out, and we should stop at the most proud time to consolidate the results achieved: so Gao Yue schemed, forged Duan Jinyi's signature, and provoked Xifan to talk about recklessness and Nanzhao Yimu Xun to fight fiercely, which not only caused Xifan to suffer heavy losses, but also greatly damaged Nanzhao's vitality, and then the two countries were suspicious of each other, and it would also cause such a situation: Xifan's forces could only survive in Shanzhou after that, and Nanzhao was defeated through Shaye City, and was unable to annex Shanzhou, can only continue to seek peace from the Tang family - Wei Gao will sit in the capital of Shu in the future, and at the same time watch the Jingluo family, and it is only a matter of time before he completely seizes Shanzhou.

Once the power of Xifan in Weizhou is destroyed, Wei Gao will set his sights on Victoria in the next step, "Xifan believes that Victoria City is a worry-free city, and I must worry about them from now on, to the point of exhaustion." ”

So Wei Gao and Gao Yue after the withdrawal of the army, set up a number of beacons in Qingxi Pass, and left 700 Fengyi soldiers to garrison Wangxing City in the south of Dadu Shui, and the entire Lizhou, only 800 soldiers were left in Liwu City, and the rest of the mountain passes, Feiyue and other cities, all of which were given to the three departments of Dongman, and then Wei Gao left Xu Qi as the "head of the three departments of Dongban Bedeng, Fengpa, and Lianglin", and led 300 soldiers to be stationed at the junction of Lizhou and Yazhou to rush to Qionglai Pass, chiseled through more than 100 rock houses to reserve materials and equipment, and added and repaired Yangmu Pavilion as a military fort to supervise the entire Dongban, And guard the south gate of Shudu.

At the same time, the Tang family also achieved great success on the northwest front, the new host of Shang Qixin'er was unable to stop the offensive of the Shence Xingying and the Yining army, and most of the territory near Shuiluochuan had been seized by the Tang army.

As for the great treatise on the southern road of Xifan, this is also a set of the Central Plains learned clearly, actually turned defeat into victory, sent the bird envoy to the palace of Zampu on the plateau, and said to Zampu: In the battle of Papaya Ridge, the Tang army lost its armor and could only flee back to the north of Qingxi Pass, and the entire Shanzhou was as immobile as an iron wall, and at the critical moment when I was fighting with the Tang army, the king of Dongri in Yunnan actually had different intentions and tried to attack my rear, and was defeated by the surprise soldiers I set up, and the bloodless occupation of Huichuan City is the proof of my merits!

On Mangre and the begging of Shanzhou and Huichuan, and the Shinolu of Kamigawa are in collusion, and the caliber is the same.

And Ma Dingde secretly accepted a large bribe from Nanzhao, and he was also secretive.

Zampu, who was in the palace of the city of Raksha, knew the actual situation, and was overjoyed when he received the "good news" of recklessness, and ordered him to be given a large amount of gold and silver, and rewarded the meritorious soldiers.

So on the recklessness and said, now that Shanzhou is in the gap between the forces of the Tang family and Nanzhao, it is extremely difficult to operate and hold on, please send another 1 to 20,000 Dongdai soldiers from the headquarters to strengthen the defense.

Tri Song Detsen should also inherit this.

When he learned the truth, he was angry and disgusted, so he summoned his father's guard and servant Soma, wrote the original version of the battle of Papaya Ridge on a wooden tablet, and on his way back to Qinghai, he asked Soma to send it to his father in the city of Luo, and then his father presented it to Zampu.

In the letter, he angrily accused the commander of the reckless cowardice and hesitation, and said that this war was a fiasco in Xifan, and suggested that Zampu replace the capable people to pacify the situation in Jiannan and Yunnan, otherwise once Wei Gao, Gao Yue, and Du Huangshang come again, Shanzhou will definitely not be guaranteed, and then Sanssouci City will also be in danger, and the failure of the southwest will affect the operation of Hexi and Longyou.

Zampu was located in front of the red palace on the cliff, and Shang Jiezan, who was almost idle, received the letter from his eldest son in Soma's hand, it was the middle of January of the following year, and his second son Wu Ren was also present.

After reading the letter, Shang Jiezan was silent and threw the wooden tablet directly into the brazier.

Outside, under the pale blue sky, the plateau was still cold.

The flames were peeling back, "Master." Soma said.

"What the beggar said is all the truth, but it is not what the god Zampu wants to hear, there is no need, and even things that will bring harm to the Na Nang clan cannot be done." Shang Jiezan said.

Soma and Wu Ren could only bow their heads and remain silent.

Soon, Wu Ren, as the representative of the Na Nang clan, went to the location of the fiefdom of Non Mangre and congratulated his wife and children—congratulating Non Mangre on his great victory in Papaya Ridge.

The reckless family understands that this is a sign that the Nasang's request for an alliance with them is a sign of this.

Soon, Qinghai Zhongdao Da Zhu Bo also joined this secret aristocratic alliance.

Soon after, at the suggestion of the important ministers, Zampu ordered the beggar to leave Qinghai and come back to Shanzhou as the ambassador of the soldiers and horses of the Southern Province, directly subordinate to the Lun Mangre.

How ironic this is!

When he heard the news, the servant Soma knelt in front of the door of Shang Jiezan's mansion and began to cry.

"Soma, you bastard, what are you crying about?" Shang Jiezan was greatly dissatisfied.
