Chapter 141: Determination (3)

The offensive and defensive battles were fought for most of the day, and the Turks were good at field battles, whether they were attacking or defending cities, they were not their forte.

The siege below the city was clumsy, and the defense above the city was equally clumsy. If it weren't for the thousands of Tang troops in the city, Shuozhou City would have been breached long ago. But it can't be said that it has no effect, there are many people with great strength, as long as the hearts are twisted together, and there are more Turkic people to defend the city, it will only help.

It was getting dusk.

By February, it was still a little cold outside. However, it is no longer the gentle sword and frost sword of a month ago, and it has become a little colder. The Turks sounded the horn for the withdrawal of their troops

At the end of the day, many soldiers died on both sides.

Mo Si was a little annoyed, just saw Kong Zhengfang, and asked sullenly, "Kong Jun, why did your plan fail again?" ”

I spent most of the day thinking about this answer.

Kong Zhengfang replied calmly: "It's not that the strategy has failed, it's that there are masters in the city to guide you, Great Khan, think about how the morale in the city was yesterday, what about today?" ”

Gu Lulu is not an unreasonable person, and after thinking about it carefully, it is so, and he regrets in his heart, he should have attacked the city yesterday, and he could not delay it until today. Then he asked, "So what is Mr. Kong's plan?" ”。

I didn't take it seriously, just ask, there is better, there is no pulling.

Kong Zhengfang replied: "It doesn't matter if the problem is solved, Shuozhou City is small, there are not many soldiers defending the city, and Dao is really in danger of the city wall, so he is hard-mouthed, once Shuozhou City is broken, he will obediently serve the Great Khan." ”。

"Is that easy to break?" scolded Lulu and said angrily. Siege warfare is more annoying than field warfare, often the city is fortified, the general defending the city will be commanded, the army is neat, only a few thousand people, and their own hundreds of thousands of troops will take it. Besides, the Tang Dynasty army is about to arrive.

Kong Zhengfang didn't understand it at first, so he said blankly: "Great Khan, I first came to the Northland, I don't know the situation, and I don't even know the information you inquired about, so what can I think?" ”

"Okay, you come with me." Take it to the big tent.

The simplest information, the Turks still have to find out, but it is written in the Turkic script, not written by the scouts themselves, the Turkic script is very complex, it has been created for more than two hundred years, and there are very few people who can know it. This is the news brought by the scouts sent by Gu Dulu to sort out the text in words. The Tang Dynasty did the same, after all, at this time, including the Tang Dynasty, there were very few people who could also read and write, and Kong Zhengfang didn't know ...... "Gu Lulu sent a person to read it to him."

After giving the order, he left here and went to his men to discuss the plan for the siege tomorrow.

Kong Zhengfang listened one by one, in fact, he wanted to find a way from the news to find a way to Jin Gu Lu service is fake, but to see if he can find a way to escape through these news.

After listening for a while, I heard the list of officials and generals of Yunzhou, Ulzhou, Shuozhou, Xinzhou, Shizhou, Lanzhou, and Merge brought back by the scouts.

However, Kong Zhengfang's eyes lit up, and he found Gu Lulu and said, "Great Khan, I have thought of a method that may be useful for Great Khan." ”

"What's the idea?"

"Bingzhou Sima Quping is a fellow villager and a good friend, this person was originally the governor of Shenzhou, because he was loyal to our Tang Dynasty emperor, he was excluded to Bingzhou as Sima. He has always been very dissatisfied with Zhuwu, if he let him go to persuade him, persuade this person, and assist him, at this time there are not many troops in the state, and then the Great Khan will send a strange army, which should be combined with the outside to capture the state. Wu's army will be defeated, so the Great Khan can point to the eastern capital and eradicate all the martial arts for our dynasty. ”

Why do you still want my army to attack Luoyang?

However, these people are always very corrupt, and in the Tang Dynasty before, Gu Lulu also encountered many similar characters. didn't care, but if he really succeeded and attacked the state, then this line of work would be very rewarding. Bone Dullo fell into deep thought.

Kong Zhengfang didn't know what he was thinking in his heart, whether he could escape or not, so he moved here and said sincerely: "Great Khan, please rest assured." There is no place for the next and Qinghai generals. The year before last, he offended Wu Chengjin again, and he couldn't live in the country either. Besides, although you came to your tooth tent to cast yourself in the Great Khan, far away from the Central Plains, the people of the Central Plains will not know the news for a while, but after a long time, they will definitely know about it. If I knew that I instigated the Great Khan to lead the army to restore the Tang Dynasty and eliminate the army, would the court let me go? ”

It's not that Gu Dulu is worried about him.

Instead, he thinks that his chances of success in this line of work are very vague, and it is better to keep him. He is the loyal minister of the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, whose life and death are unknown, and once he is at a critical time, it will have extremely important symbolic significance.

Seeing that Gu Lu was groaning, Kong Zhengfang said again: "Great Khan, besides, there is a huge wealth in the city of Bingzhou, once you get these riches, it is enough to make up for the loss of this war. ”

Gu Lulu finally had some heartbeat, and there were only a few megacities in the Tang Dynasty, Chang'an Luoyang, Chengdu Yangzhou, Taiyuan Jingzhou, Suzhou, Hangzhou and Bianwei. After pondering for a long time, he finally agreed.

This night, Kong Zhengfang lay on the corner of the ground, thinking about his thoughts.

Gu Lulu agreed, but sent a few guards to follow, in the name of secretly protecting. But what about himself, I don't know Qu Ping at all, the villagers are real, this person was a high school jinshi more than ten years ago, and was passed on as a beautiful talk by the township. He knows him, he doesn't know himself. As for Qu Ping's attitude towards the emperor, there is no way to know, God knows how he changed from the governor of Shenzhou to the Sima of the state. Once he infiltrates the city of Bingzhou, his lies will inevitably be seen through by the followers of Gu Lu.

How do you get rid of these guards?

After thinking about it all night and not coming up with a good solution, the siege began again the next day, and the group disguised themselves and left the battlefield and sneaked south.

A few days later, he arrived in Taiyuan City, and at this time Li Xiaoyi's army was also about to arrive in Bingzhou. But if Kong Zhengfang really has the ability to persuade Qu Ping, and Qu Ping has the ability to open a certain gate in Taiyuan, his statement can still be realized. After all, although the city of Lanzhou was defended, the outside of the city was completely eroded under the capture of Mo Si. Light riding can avoid Yanmen Pass and make a detour from Lanzhou into Taiyuan.

This also made Kong Zhengfang not very happy, I don't know what strategy the imperial trial used, but if he hadn't let himself bewitch the bones, would he have entered the country, and would these people have suffered the disaster of charcoal?

Guan Jian didn't have the ability to think that far.

For example, Niu captured Cheng Wuting and Zhang Qianxun, and the soldiers took down the Tang army without blood.

Another example is that the whole Turkic army went south, what became of the rear?

Of course, it's not that Gu Dulu is careless, it's been so long, even Wu Zetian thinks that his son is more auspicious than lucky, and Gu Dulu is not careful. In this and situation, who would dare to move the rear of the Turks? Qinghai and the Western Regions Army? Do they have this Yaxing? Does Hui Chun have the guts? The current Turks are not the Turks of two years ago, and they are given three points of courage, and they do not dare to take the initiative to confuse themselves.

With today's big loophole alone, the damage caused by the invasion is worth it.

Very depressed and puzzled into Taiyuan City.

The time also came to the end of February, the spring flowers were blooming, and some pretty girls and handsome young men in Taiyuan City wore thin clothes. There were people coming and going on the street, and Kong Zhengfang quietly tried a few times, but these guards were always stuck behind him like a piece of gummy.

I didn't dare to go too far, so I had to find an inn to live in first, and then ask someone for Qu Ping's address.

There may not be a home, some officials are incorruptible, and they only live in inns or temples during their tenure, and some save trouble and rent houses. Qu Ping didn't, he bought a small courtyard, the yard is not very big, two rows of three-in, three-out houses, there is a gatehouse, an old servant, two little maids, asked, Qu Ping is not at home, went to the yamen to work, and will come back in the evening.

Kong Zhengfang had no choice but to visit again in the evening.

Hearing his name, Qu Ping was stunned, and immediately greeted him, and asked in surprise: "Kong Xiancheng, how did you come to Bingzhou?" ”

"Qu Sima, hear my name too?"

"How can Qu not know that the Zhou Guogong Mansion is fighting with the heroes, and Qinghai and the generals have a jaws, and they are fleeing in the ...... Kong Xiancheng, what happened? ”

"It's hard to put into words.

Qu Sima, can you forgive me for telling you the truth of the matter in the next twenty days? Kong Zhengfang didn't know what medicine was sold in Li Wei's gourd, but it would be revealed in twenty days.

"Why twenty days?"

"It's an agreement."

"A gentleman's words, galloping horses are difficult to chase, Qu doesn't ask. I don't know why Kong Xiancheng came to visit Qu? ”

"I want to ask Qu Sima for one thing, can he stay in the next twenty days."

Qu Ping was very curious and wanted to ask, but he endured it and asked about another thing: "Kong Xiancheng, you are in Qinghai, do you know the whereabouts of Your Majesty, there are so many rumors outside......

"I don't know." I can't say anything about this killing.

"So where are you staying now?".

"I found an inn in the morning."

"You don't need to stay at the guest house, Qu has been here for a short time, and he didn't bring a female dependent, so you can live in my place first, how to say, we are still in the township."

"Then thank you Qu Sima." Kong Zhengfang breathed a sigh of relief, these tails followed, which made him very uncomfortable, and he was a little scared in his heart.

returned to the inn to get the luggage, and a few attendants asked, but when they heard that he was going to move to Qu Ping's house, they didn't ask again. The goal of coming was to plot against Qu Ping, and as soon as the two met, Qu Ping asked him to move to his own house, which shows that the two have a good relationship.

After staying at Qu's house, Kong Zhengfang breathed a sigh of relief, who knew that three days later, as soon as he came out, one of the guards quietly followed and asked, "Mr. Kong, how are things going?" ”

"Can't be in a hurry, let me communicate with him slowly."

"Mr. Kong, time can't drag on any longer, the Tang Army is about to arrive in the state."

"Yes, I see." After Kong Zhengfang finished speaking, he immediately returned to Qu Mansion. Then I thought with a sad face, what should I do about this? Can't let Qu Ping take a few officials to arrest them, it's easy to arrest, but when you ask, what is the result? Why do you say that I am your good friend, and why did the Gougong Turks invade Yunshuo, and what banner is there against Wu and Tang Dynasty? After a few days of talking, Qu Ping also expressed his admiration for His Majesty, but people's hearts are separated from their stomachs, do they dare to say it clearly?

There is no way to drag it like this, and a few tails will not let themselves drag it for twenty days.

Sitting in the west chamber of Qu Ping's small courtyard, Kong Zhengfang thought about it for a day, his hair turned white, and he didn't come up with a solution.

But he neglected one thing, people's greed and **, the desire for fame and position of middle and lower-class officials.

Qu Ping tried for three days and concluded that Kong Zhengfang had a very secret thing hidden in him, and the year before last, he broke Wu Chengbang's face in Wu Chenghe's mansion, and with only the latter one, he betrayed Kong Zhengfang to Wu Chengbang, and he could also exchange it for a chance to be promoted.

Just when Kong Zhengfang was trying to resolve a few tail strategies at his home, Qu Ping was writing a secret letter and preparing to send it to Luoyang.
