Yucheng City, the easternmost city in Tubo, is located on the bank of the Jinsha River, bordering Tubo on the South Road of the Tang Dynasty, and is Yucheng City 500 miles to the west.

In the Han Dynasty, it was the land of Yak Qiang, in the Jin Dynasty, it was the land of Ma'er Dang, the Northern and Southern Dynasties belonged to the Party Department, the Sui Dynasty belonged to the Governor's Office of Nanning Prefecture, and in the early Tang Dynasty, it was the city of Yu, which belonged to the land of Tubo.

This is the Deqin County in the northwest of Diqing Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Yunnan Province in later generations, with an altitude of 3,400 meters, the terrain is long from north to south and narrow from east to west, sparsely populated, but because this is the east gate of Tubo, it was garrisoned by Songtsen Gampu with 30,000 heavy soldiers.

Just a month ago, the calm of many years was broken by a loud sound of the mountain shaking the ground, and the city of Yucheng was broken, and the 30,000 soldiers defending the city were all killed by the 40,000 soldiers and horses of the furious Tang Dynasty, and there was no other reason, there was only one, that is, to return my immortal food.

Songtsen Gampo, the lord of Tubo, panicked at once, and the east gate of Tubo was broken, how can this be good? The Tang Dynasty is menacing, I heard that the city will be broken in one day, so it seems that the thunder will open the way, wouldn't it be destroyed in less than a few days?

Reinforcements were sent to recapture the city, but three counterattacks, all of which were blown back by the Tang Dynasty with thunder, and the people turned over on their backs was extremely miserable, and Songtsen Gampo was afraid.

Urgently recruited Lu Dongzan to enter the palace to discuss, looking forward to Lu Dongzan making cement as a defensive weapon, but the answer he got was that the cement seemed to be made by a divine craftsman, and only Datang could make it.

If Bai Fan knows about this, he will definitely hold his stomach and laugh, Tubo is located on the plateau, the air is thin, there is too little oxygen, the temperature required to burn cement is extremely high, the firepower must be sufficient, the ordinary kiln mouth is useless, the kiln mouth must be specially made according to local conditions, with Lu Dongzan's such a map, it is a joke to be able to burn cement.

But what made the Tubo monarchs and ministers feel strange was that the Tang Dynasty actually repaired the defensive city and stationed it, and it seemed that there was no intention of going west, Lu Dongzan pondered for a long time, and speculated worriedly, maybe the Tang Dynasty is going to eat us step by step, so we still have time to continue to study cement.

On this day, a special team came to Yucheng City, in addition to the 10,000 own people who were separated before, there were also 10,000 swordsmen in Tsing Yi robes, although they were swordsmen dressed in martial arts, but the style of the whole way was a marching style, and the expression of looking at death as if they were at home attracted the attention of all the 50,000 troops in Yucheng City.

Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, heard Li Chengdao's report, and was silent for a long time, and he was also very emotional about what happened to the Qingcheng faction, and personally went to find the Taishang Elder Li Zheng, and said sincerely: "You are righteous, Yuanji admires, although you have agreed with the Tang Dynasty in advance, but this king still wants to ask you to stay here for half a month."

The mountains and climates here are different from those of the Central Plains, no matter what happened in the past, everyone is the hero of my Tang Dynasty today, and this king does not want you to sacrifice in vain.

The accompanying military doctors in our army have developed medicines to resist the special climate here, and although they cannot prevent ten percent of the discomfort, they are still seventy percent effective.

In addition, all of you have unique skills, and you must have adapted to this place after fifteen days, and it should be no problem to recover at least ninety percent of your strength. ”

Lao Li Zheng took all the elders to give a military salute, "Thank you King Qi for your kindness, so that I can live for another half a month, and kill a few more Tubo barbarians after half a month." ”

Li Yuanji couldn't bear it in his heart, and ordered out of the camp that the 10,000-person food for 15 days would be provided by the Tang Dynasty, all according to the standard of celebration, and if the military expenditure was not enough, the Qi Wangfu would come out.

"Zampu (the name of the Tubo people for the lord of the country), no, the Tang Dynasty has begun to attack Tubo, and it is about to come to the city of Luo (Lhasa in later generations)." A general stormed the palace of the Tibetan king.

What the???

Songtsen Gampo and Lu Dongzan stood up in surprise at the same time.

"Some cities? Aren't they in the city of Yucheng? How did you come to our city? How many cities along the way? Have they all been killed, and no one has reported it? Lu Dongzan scolded like thunder.

"No, no, they did not pass through any of the cities, but bypassed the cities along our way by way of a hasty march, and came straight to our cities.

And this team is very strange, they are an army of 10,000, subordinates don't know, which army in the Tang Dynasty can do this, marching like the wind and disciplined, 10,000 troops rush into our Tibetan hinterland and are not noticed, even if they are detected, our messengers may not be fast past them, they have seen a lot of knowledge, I don't know if they have ever heard of it? The general explained.

Songtsan Gampo looked at Lu Dongzan, Lu Dongzan pondered for a long time, shook his head and said: "No, I have also seen the strongest Xuanjia army in the Tang Dynasty, but they can't do this, otherwise they wouldn't have been trapped in the Western Turks and almost perished."

Probe again to find out who the leading generals of this road are, and what are the characteristics of the soldiers.

Zanpu, when the soldiers were in danger of Tubo under the city, the old minister hoped that Zanpu would drive the expedition in person and fight back the enemy with the soldiers to defend Tubo, so that we could give the people the confidence to defeat the Tang Dynasty. ”

Songtsen Gampo is also eloquent, and with a wave of his hand, "Quasi, I want to live and die with Tubo." ”

The army of Tubo guarding the capital of the country is 100,000 in total, which is different from the Tang Dynasty, the terrain of Tubo is complex, so it belongs to the defense mechanism of the middle is strong and the four are weak, and the Tang Dynasty belongs to the defense mechanism of the strong and weak in the middle, that is because the Tang Dynasty has convenient communications, transportation and transportation, and the capital can be supported at any time around the capital, and the four sides can be defended in all directions, and the national capital can govern the country with peace of mind.

Outside the city, Songtsen Gampo was waiting for the 10,000 troops of the Tang Dynasty to come to the enemy, thinking that even if the other party wanted to blow himself up with a thunderbolt, he would have to stand at the forefront.

"Who in the Tang Dynasty dares to offend me in Tibet? Fool me and no one cares? Lu Dongzan and Songtsen Gampo stood side by side and shouted at the men and horses in front of them.

On the Tang side, the white-haired old Li Zhengyun shouted loudly: "The Qingcheng faction of the Tang Green Forest, on behalf of the people of the Tang Dynasty, came to seek justice from the Tubo barbarians, and you sent troops to destroy my Datang immortal grain. ”

Songtsen Gampo laughed: "A group of thieves in the green forest, dare not to put me in Tibet? Looking for death? ”

At this time, a person rushed out from behind him, it was a man about thirty years old, dressed in black with a resolute expression, and shouted at Lao Li Zheng: "Grandpa, Tubo is our ally, how can you be so confused? Let's go back quickly. ”

"Hmph, those who have forgotten their ancestors, the old man doesn't know you, wait for the old man to clean up the portal for the Li family in Longxi himself.

The disciples of Qingcheng listened to the order, took revenge and fought bloodily, and never stopped! War! ”

"Fight!"

"Fight!"

Qi Qi shouted two earth-shattering furious shouts, and the 10,000 horses of the Qingcheng faction rushed over collectively with swords, and the people who practiced martial arts were different, although their footsteps were uneven, they were at least fifty percent faster than ordinary soldiers.

"Tubo warriors, defend the country and kill the thieves with me!"

In the end, it is the gap between the green forest and the regular army, a round of arrow rain down, the Qingcheng faction fell unwillingly, and many people still struggled to get up and rushed forward to fight even if they were hit by a few arrows, and the momentum of not being afraid of death deeply shocked the people of Tubo.
