The direction of Ma Lan's patrol is exactly at an angle of 90 degrees with Li Siye's department, and the Tubo headquarters is divided into five ru and sixty-one Dongdai, except for Su Biru, which is adjacent to Qinghai, the remaining nearly fifty Dongdai are concentrated under the city, and all the surrounding affiliated countries, almost all of them have taken refuge in the Tang Dynasty, and there should be no more reinforcements.

And the number of incoming troops seen by the patrol cavalry is still the same as that of the main force in Tibet before, which cannot be counted, and even a rough estimate cannot be made, which means that it can only be described in words such as tens of thousands.

What made Feng Changqing, Ge Shuhan and other commanders pay more attention is the intention of coming to the army, in the hinterland of the Tubo people, it is absolutely impossible to give birth to an army of the Tang Dynasty out of thin air, then the situation is not optimistic.

Under Feng Changqing's order, the main force of Anxi Town, which had not yet made any action, immediately deployed in that direction, protecting the flanks of the Han people, the Zhangxiong people, and the soldiers and horses of various countries.

However, when the incoming army gradually approached, no one dared to believe that with more than 6,000 Tang troops, they could stop this team.

It was a very unfamiliar flag, even Liu Ji, who had a thousand years of knowledge, couldn't distinguish the true identity of the person who came, their flag was painted with the pattern of flowers and birds, the main color was purple and blue, decorated with white tassels, a total of eight first, followed by two pheasant tail fans, on both sides were oxtail decorated axes, wearing leather armor and wearing flat iron helmets, riding on a very short looking war horse.

Not only did Liu Ji not know, but Ge Shuhan, Feng Changqing and the generals of Anxi had also not seen it, to say that they were also well-informed, there were many large and small countries in the entire Western Regions, even Western countries such as Dashi and Persia were no strangers, but they couldn't recognize the origin of these teams, and in the end, Chide Zuzan, who was surrounded by them, revealed the answer.

"My brother, Zan Pu Zhong and Nanzhao King Ge Luofeng have arrived, and he has brought six soldiers and horses, no less than 100,000 people."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone suddenly realized that Nanzhao can be said to be the largest subject country in Tubo, at the beginning of the founding of the country was pressed by the Tang Dynasty soldiers, and every time they would beg soldiers in Tubo, and now Tubo is in trouble, they actually raised the country's troops to help, which can not be described as disloyal.

You must know that Nanzhao is only divided into six sections.

Ge Shuhan and Feng Changqing's faces became ugly, no wonder the Tubo people would try their best to delay the war, coming to help from Nanzhao, generally speaking, they would first go up the Nu River, then cross the Hengduan Mountains to reach the middle reaches of the Zang River, and then all the way to the city of Luo, this distance was not closer than Qinghai, and the Tubo people could not estimate the time of their arrival, so they could only delay as much as possible.

Now the situation is clear, if the Tang Dynasty insists on attacking, this army will become a great variable, if you think deeper, Tubo Zampu does not hesitate to die, under the combination of the two roads, the Tang Dynasty has no way to win, and there will even be the disaster of the destruction of the whole army, because this is the hinterland of the Tubo people, there is nowhere to escape.

"What about Nanzhao's help?" Liu Ji saw that they were suspicious, and said in a protest voice: "I don't believe that the Nanzhao people will shed the last drop of blood for the Tubo people." ”

"What if they go all the way up to the plateau, even if there are 100,000 people? I am willing to block them with the Anxi army, and the troops of Dr. Geshu plus the Han people, the Xiangxiong people, and the soldiers and horses of all countries will attack the Tubo people together, destroy these two major dynasties in one fell swoop, completely solve the southwestern border trouble of the Tang Dynasty, and collect the map of Yunnan into Xinjiang, which is the right time! ”

Liu Ji's words, in Ge Shuhan's heart, set off an uproar, if it is said that the previous behavior, it can be considered that it is a meritorious service, and now, Tang Jun is no longer dominant, and still says such words, it can be described as crazy,

Chide Zuzan didn't expect that this young Tang man would be so aggressive, in his eyes, he could only see infinite murderous aura, a brave warrior, he had seen a lot, even if it was a famous name like Li Siye, who was recited in a foreign country, he had never had such a thorough hatred? He didn't even know where this hatred came from.

The Tang people and the Tibetans have been in love and killed each other for more than 100 years, married twice, and called themselves nephews, how many captive Han people have long been unable to speak Chinese, and how many Tubo people are born to Han women, and they can't tell the difference, even the Han people themselves may not remember it anymore, but it is remembered by a Tang person.

What a deep hatred! He is not about personal vendetta, but about national disaster, the Tang Dynasty has never asked for the captive Han people, because they have hundreds of millions of people, they don't care about this person at all, but it is different for Tubo, it needs more people to hold the vast territory, otherwise the conquest will become meaningless.

In just a moment, he felt that this young Tang man was terrifying, even more than the two towns with 100,000 troops.

The soldiers and horses of Nanzhao stopped a mile away from the Tang army's formation, and did not approach too closely, nor did they make an attack, they were on the flanks of the two armies, and saw the situation of the confrontation between the two sides more clearly.

The 40-year-old Ge Luofeng, wearing a golden crown and a purple robe, rode a plateau horse given to him by the Tibetans, and on his flanks were several generals and envoys of various ministries.

"Lord, the Tubo people have really lost the capital."

Ge Luofeng also saw the Tang banner on the head of the city, and when he received the letter from Zampu, he still didn't believe it, because the Tang people's Jiannan Jiedu envoy had just experienced a fiasco last year, and the Nanzhao and the Tubo coalition army that came to aid almost wiped out nearly 100,000 Tang troops who had invaded.

Nanmarsh is full of miasma land, it has been a difficult area to conquer since ancient times, from the Eastern Han Dynasty's horse aid to Zhuge Liang in the Three Kingdoms, have experienced many difficulties, and the Tang people are no exception.

The Tubo region is just the opposite, it is a cold land, even his subordinates, are not very adaptable, but the two countries have lips and teeth, he has to come, because if it is not to the moment of danger, Tubo Zampu will never ask him for help, you know, Nanzhao is also facing the threat of the Tang people, from the news from Chengdu, Jiannan Jiedu envoy this time will be led by Yang Guozhong, presiding over the conquest of Nanzhao.

But I didn't expect that the Tubo people even lost the capital, and were caught under the city by the two Tang armies, the Tang people were not only menacing, but also the soldiers and horses of many countries to help, and even the elephants of the Tianzhu people appeared in sight.

Nanzhao's rebellion against the Tang Dynasty began with Ge Luofeng, but throughout his life, he hoped to be a vassal of the Tang Dynasty, because that empire was too powerful, with infinite manpower and material resources, if he was always hostile, he would not have the spare strength to open up to the four sides.

If it weren't for the wanton oppression of the border generals, he would have been under the wings of the Tang Dynasty, unifying the six edicts and then developing to the south, where the environment is similar and the climate is the same, which is the most ideal territory of the Southern Zhao.

"Lord, what should I do, do you want to save the Tibetan people?" The courtier's words brought him back to his senses.

"We traveled thousands of miles, not to fight the Tang people."

"Do you want to sit and watch the Tubo people fall?"

Ge Luofeng shook his head: "Once the Tubo people don't exist, we will become the next target, only by letting them be in front of them will they always attract the attention of the Tang people, and only then will we have room for development." ”

"Frugal."

He called a man of medium stature, who answered on his horse.

"You take my envoy and go to meet the Tang Commander, I hope it's still too late."
