Chapter 1262: Tubo Scheme
"Zampu, in the current situation, we can only leave some soldiers and horses behind, as long as we support a day or even half a day, we can rush back."
As long as someone can sacrifice themselves to buy time for their escape, they will be able to return to Tibet alive.
It's just that when the general said his idea, the tribal leaders were silent.
They all know very well that whoever breaks off will only be destroyed by the Tang Army.
But who wants to be wiped out by the Tang Army?
They all have to think about their own tribes, and it is simply impossible for them to break off.
They set their sights on Songtsen Gampo, who was the Zangpu of Tibet, and at this time, he had a duty to protect them alive, otherwise, why would they listen to Zangpu's orders?
Everyone's meaning is self-evident, and Songtsen Gampo is also a smart person, so he naturally understands what these people mean.
It had to be his people to cut it off, or else the tribal leaders would have to do something else.
Songtsen Gampo frowned, he didn't want his soldiers and horses to die, but if his soldiers and horses didn't sacrifice, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to let these tribal leaders serve him anymore.
But in the present situation, it is not appropriate for him to contradict these tribal leaders.
If he wants to continue to be his own Zamp, and it is worth keeping these tribal leaders to follow, he must have the appearance of being Zamp.
Leaders have never been easy to be.
As the boss, sometimes you have to contribute something.
Songtsen Gampo hesitated for a moment, and then ordered: "Leave two thousand soldiers and horses to block the Tang army, and the rest of the soldiers and horses will continue to hurry with me." ”
Two thousand soldiers and horses are not a lot, but in Songtsen Gampo's opinion, it is not very little, and if these two thousand soldiers and horses have the determination to die, they may be able to buy them half a day.
And for them, half a day is almost enough.
Soon, Songtsen Gampo's 2,000 soldiers and horses were left behind, and the rest of the men continued to follow Songtsen Gampo on their way.
The night is getting more and more moonlight, and it is getting colder and colder.
Two thousand soldiers and horses rested in place, waiting for the arrival of the Don army.
Now, in order to have better energy, they are ready to work at ease.
About an hour later, before dawn, the Tang army finally rushed over.
After resting for an hour, it was not a lot for the 2,000 soldiers and horses in Tubo, but this hour's rest time made their spirits a little better.
The night was a little dark, and there were torches flickering around from time to time.
After the Tang army saw these two thousand soldiers and horses, they understood the meaning of Tubo.
However, Qin Tian only showed a sneer, and then waved his hand: "Kill me." ”
At the sound of an order, the archers of the Tang army immediately strafed the two thousand Tibetan soldiers and horses, and these Tibetan soldiers and horses did not expect that the Tang Dynasty would use sharp arrows.
There are a lot of soldiers and horses in the Tang Dynasty, and there are also a lot of sharp arrows, and the two thousand Tubo soldiers and horses can't parry it at all.
After a few rounds of sharp arrows, half of the Tibetan soldiers and horses were hit by arrows, and they either died or directly lost their lethality.
The rest of the people can continue to fight.
Just as the arrows stopped, they swarmed and killed.
However, at this time, Tang Jun also killed him directly.
The Tang army did not rest, they were also a little tired, but they won because there were many people and their weapons were sharp, so after the two sides were short-handed, the Tang army ended the battle in a crushing way.
In Qin Tian's view, Tubo used 2,000 soldiers and horses to break off, but it was just a useless move, and they just happened to divide and destroy it.
If it was five thousand, they would not be able to destroy it easily, but two thousand was nothing to them.
After destroying these two thousand soldiers and horses, the Tang army did not continue to pursue, but rested for an hour, and waited until dawn before they continued to hurry.
-------------------
Songtsen Gampo continued to flee with his soldiers and horses.
It wasn't until noon that it finally stopped.
They were so tired that they couldn't walk, and if they didn't rest, they would not be wiped out by the Tang army, so they would die of exhaustion or starvation.
So, they must now rest, eat.
After many soldiers stopped, they fell directly to the ground and fell asleep, they were already sleepy, even if someone kicked them, they didn't remember much.
"Zampu, we have already fled a long way, presumably the Tang Army will not chase after us."
"Definitely won't chase after us, don't look at it, we still have 2,000 soldiers and horses after we are broken, even if they chase them, they won't be able to catch up with us."
"That's right, in three days, we will be in the territory of Tubo, and at that time, there will be no need to worry about anything."
“…………”
During the break, some tribal leaders talked to Songtsen Gampo, and Songtsen Gampo also hoped that the Tang army would not continue to pursue and kill.
However, just as they were saying this, a spy hurried over again: "It's a big deal, the Tang army is chasing after ......"
Hearing that the Tang army was chasing after him again, a group of soldiers were immediately distressed, they hadn't rested much, why did the Tang army come again?
If this continues, it will be impossible for them to return to Tibet alive.
The tribal leaders had breathed a sigh of relief just now, but now they all suddenly tensed up again.
"What's the matter, isn't there two thousand soldiers and horses broken, it is impossible for the Tang Army to be so fast?"
"That is, why does the Tang army stay ghostly, do you have to keep chasing and killing us like this?"
"Damn, these Tang troops are too hateful......"
These people kept scolding, but none of them were willing to fight with the Tang Army, let alone leave their soldiers and horses alone to cut off.
Songtsen Gampo looked at them like this, his heart was very angry, he thought that he had controlled Tubo very well, but he didn't expect it to be like this, their tribal form of Tubo was really not conducive to their war.
Each of them is fighting for their own interests, how can they be strong in Tibet?
When he returned, he had to solve the problem slowly.
But now, he had to find a way to return to the Tubo Royal City alive, and he didn't expect that Tang Jun would be like this.
At this moment, he really felt hopelessness and helplessness, as well as regret.
He regretted that he shouldn't have used troops against Datang easily.
"In this situation, it will not work after sending troops and horses, we can only surrender and negotiate peace with the Tang army."
While those tribal leaders were talking, Songtsen Gampo told him what he thought, the Tang army couldn't help them, at least they couldn't destroy Tibet, so negotiating peace would definitely be the result that the Tang army wanted to see.
It's nothing more than that they Tubo compensated some money.
