The past two days in Shicheng are boring, Xuan Shijing can only go to the study of the county guard family with a cheeky face in addition to going around the barracks every day, the only advantage is that he doesn't have to get up so early every morning, the cold climate in Shicheng in the morning is simply a spell for Xuan Shijing to seal him in the quilt.

The sun was three poles, and the air outside was not so cold that Xuan Shijing came out of the quilt, put on soft armor, and walked out of the tent.

It has been three days since the battle that morning, and the Tubo people outside the city don't know what's wrong, and there has been no movement.

Coming to the barracks, Xuan Shijing wandered around, first went to the wounded soldiers to see their injuries, there are no anti-inflammatory drugs this year, and if the wound is not treated well, it will die.

"Master Hou, why did you come here, Captain Zhao is looking for you everywhere." When the sergeant in the camp saw Xuan Shijing coming, he quickly stood up and said.

"Zhao Ying looking for me?" Xuan Shijing was puzzled.

"Captain Zhao is looking for you, it's General Cheng looking for you, it seems that something is wrong." The soldier said.

Since it was Cheng Chumo looking for himself, there must be something important, so he turned around with Long'er and left the wounded barracks and walked towards Cheng Chumo's handsome tent.

"Brother Chumo." The soldiers guarding outside the camp did not stop Xuan Shijing, and Xuan Shijing walked in directly.

"Shijing, come." Cheng Chumo's face was full of joy: "Gao Jun is really a talent, yesterday the scout just found the grain road in Tubo, and this morning Gao Jun took someone to set a fire, this kid is really a waste of talent if he is not a robber in the desert." ”

That's what I said

"How did the scout get in touch with Gao Jun?" Xuan Shijing asked, since his own scouts can find Gao Jun's traces, does that mean that the Tibetan scouts can also find Gao Jun's traces, and the Tubo grain transport team cannot be so hasty, so that Gao Jun can burn their grain with two hundred people.

"We have a unique contact code in the Tang Army, and those people under Gao Jun know it, so they are connected, but Gao Jun has lost a lot in this battle, and I heard that there are only a dozen people who ran out in the end" Speaking of this, Cheng Chumo's face deepened, he sniffed, and then said: "Although this battle is said to be a great victory, but after thinking about it, Gao Jun did a little reckless, but this kid has courage, Shijing, how about letting Gao Jun come to our army?" With his ability, he has a future in the army, which is very simple. "Gao Jun's just relying on this battle is enough to really win the position of a partial general.

Xuan Shijing's attention was all on Cheng Shi silently said that Gao Jun's more than 200 people only ran out of a dozen people in this battle, this time, it was indeed very dangerous, and the whole army was almost wiped out, fortunately, Gao Jun ran out, or ran out with his remaining brothers, now that the overall situation has been decided, Gao Jun should come back.

"Sejing?" Cheng Chumo called out, and seeing that Xuan Shijing was still in a daze, he stepped forward to support his shoulder: "What's wrong?" ”

Xuan Shijing came back to his senses and shook his head: "It's nothing, I'm just thinking about Gao Jun and those dozen people." ”

Cheng Chu silently saw Xuan Shijing's expression, guessed that he must be worried about the safety of those dozen people, patted Xuan Shijing's shoulder, and said: "I have asked the scouts to inform them to quickly withdraw to Shicheng, this time, the remaining dozen or so people will be in the army, at least at the centurion level, I will definitely not treat them badly." ”

Xuan Shijing smiled, the smile was meaningful, with a little sarcasm.

The living get ahead, the dead are buried in the desert, this is the battlefield, this is the fate of the soldiers, with their flesh and blood, to keep the peace and tranquility of the land of Guanzhong, to keep the Tang Dynasty Chang'an, the west is bitter, and the peace and prosperity on the surface of Chang'an, forming a strong contrast, and after this incident, Xuan Shijing will return to Chang'an, back to the prosperity under the prosperous world.

Throwing these distractions out of his mind, for Gao Jun's safety, Xuan Shijing always reminded himself that every step he took in the next step could not be wrong.

In silence around the process, Xuan Shijing walked to the map and looked at the map carefully, although he had seen the map around Shicheng countless times, Xuan Shijing still carefully studied every inch of land.

"When did Gao Jun set fire to the grain?" Xuan Shijing asked.

"In the second half of yesterday night, the Tibetan people also received the news in the morning, and the location of the attack was a long distance away from the Tibetan camp, so it took a lot of time for the Tibetan people to send the letter to the camp." Cheng Chumo said: "Gao Jun's hands are all folded in the hands of the Tubo people who transport grain. ”

"Presumably, now that the Tubo people have lost this batch of grain, they will not have the heart to besiege Gaojun, and then, their eyes will fall on the stone city, and they will definitely think about a battle." Xuan Shijing said.

Cheng Chumo nodded: "Yes, there is no food, the Tubo people will definitely fight against the water, and if they can't fight it, they can only withdraw the army, after all, the supply of 20,000 people is not a small number, especially in the territory of Longxi in the Tang Dynasty, the supply is stretched, but after taking Shicheng, they can rely on the supplies in our army in Shicheng to hold on for a few more days to loot Boxian Town, as well as Khotan Town in the west." Speaking of Khotan Town, Cheng Chumo glanced at Xuan Shijing.

Xuan Shijing's heart suddenly slammed, and he smashed his fist on the map, his eyes firm: "I will definitely hold it." ”

It's easy to say, but this is the last battle between the Tubo army and the Tang army in Shicheng outside the city, it's not the same as before, this battle is also related to the fate of three or four towns under the Kunlun Mountain in Longxi. The burden on Cheng Chumo's shoulders was very heavy.

"Twenty thousand people" Cheng Chumo said in a low voice, frowning, not knowing what he was thinking: "It's been four days since this side of Shicheng, and I guess Tingzhou has heard some news over there." ”

"Don't count on them, it's too late, besides, the troops of Tingzhou still have to deter the grassland, now the border of the Tang Dynasty and Hanzhou is facing against the Tubo army, there are still 20,000 Tubo troops here in Shicheng, and whether there are Tubo people in other places is still unknown for the time being, in case the dozen or so tribes on the grassland have chaos, the border of the Tang Dynasty will really be lively." Xuan Shijing said with a smile.

"The group of grandsons on the grassland have long been scared by the Duke of Wei Guo and the Duke of England, even if something happens, it is just a disease of ringworm." Cheng Chumo said.

"Be prepared, after all, a spark can start a prairie fire." Xuan Shijing said: "What we have to do now is to let Gao Jun go back to Shicheng to rest, and then prepare for the next big battle." ”

"Well, while the Tubo people have not yet attacked the city, I will let the soldiers in the camp rest well." Cheng Chumo said.

"No, now is not the time to rest, once the current state of the soldiers relaxes, it will be dangerous, step up the training, it's just two days." Xuan Shijing stopped Cheng Chumo.

I know that Cheng Chumo feels sorry for the hard work of the soldiers in the past two days, but after these two days, everything will be fine, if you can't survive, I am afraid that the rest of the time in the future will become a time to rest
