The camp of the Tibetan army. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

After listening to what the Dharma Realm monk said about going to the Tang Army's camp, Dazaru looked at the generals and officials on the left and right sides of the big tent and said, "It seems that the Tang Army is not giving us a way to live, are you willing to hold back or give it a go?" ”

At this time, an official said: "Marshal, in fact, we go to Chang'an is not bad, although we have lost our power, but Chang'an is a prosperous and rich place, after going to Chang'an, the Tang Emperor will not treat us badly, before Tuyuhun and I Tubo also have many generals to lead the clansmen to serve, the Tang Emperor can treat them well, if I wait for the past, the Tang Emperor is a good-looking person, and will not treat us badly!" ”

"Fart!" Immediately, someone was furious: "You shameless traitor who betrays the country and seeks glory, you should be killed if you abandon your clan and subordinates for the sake of your own future!" ”

"You ・・・・・・ me for the sake of all of us, with our current strength to fight against the Tang Army, we can only kill ourselves, not only will we die, but even the more than 30,000 horses under our command and countless Tibetan people will suffer, in the end, you just can't bear your power, and dare to laugh at me?"

In the big tent, you said a word to me, and suddenly the noise was inextricable, Dazarugan felt that his head was about to explode when he heard the noise, and immediately shook his fist and hammered the table and shouted: "Enough, don't make any noise!" ”

Everyone immediately fell silent, and the tent suddenly became extremely quiet again.

Dazaru Gong looked at the generals and said with a straight face: "The Tang people have a saying that 'rather be broken than broken', I would rather die vigorously than go to Chang'an to be played by the Tang people as a monkey, no one can say it, since the Tang Army does not give us a way to live, then we can only kill a way out by ourselves, we are here waiting for the decisive battle of the Tang Army, as long as the main force of the Tang Army is defeated, the other Tang armies will be self-defeating!" ”

A Tibetan general stood up and saluted: "Since the marshal has decided to fight to the death with the Tang army, I don't know how to fight this battle?" ”

Dazarugon said: "If we want to defeat the Tang Army, we must make use of our strengths and avoid our weaknesses. ”

The Tubo general said: "Zhao Ziliang has always dominated the world with cavalry, so his cavalry combat power is the most powerful, according to our horse exploration report, the main force of the Tang army has now gathered 100,000 horses, of which 50,000 are cavalry, and the remaining 50,000 are infantry!" ”

Dazaru Gong said again: "Then how do you think the Tang army will attack during the battle?" ”

"If it were me, of course I would charge with the cavalry as the main force, 50,000 cavalry would far exceed our army in number, and if a charge comes, my military will not be able to resist it no matter what!"

Dazaru Gong slapped the table and said: "That's right, the Tang army is charging with cavalry, and we will definitely not be able to resist, but what if we don't let his cavalry exert its combat power?" This is our battlefield, we first choose the battlefield, set up more traps and tripping horses on the battlefield, as long as it is hidden, the Tang army will not find out, as long as they charge with a large force of cavalry, they will fall into our trap, as long as most of their cavalry is solved, our cavalry can attack their infantry! Now pass on my order, set up the battlefield ten miles in front of our army's camp, and all departments will send people to the battlefield to dig more pits, set up more tripping horses, and send more detectives and cavalry to spy on the battlefield, and once they find that the Tang army is pressing the border, they will report immediately! ”

Everyone stood up and said, "Yes, marshal!" ”

The Tubo army began to be nervously busy on the preset battlefield, a large number of traps were dug out, a large number of tripping ropes were also set up, and the whole battlefield was in full swing.

The Tang army has been prepared, a large number of arrows, bows and crossbows have been transported to the front line, food and grass are also sufficient, and the one-month deadline stipulated by Emperor Xuanzong's holy decree is almost approaching, and Wang Rare, who was ordered to replace Zhao Ziliang, also rushed to the Tang army camp two days ago.

That night, Zhao Ziliang said to Wang Rarely: "Now that our army has all the food and grass, the ordnance is sufficient, and the soldiers are fully adapted to the topography and climate of this generation, there are very few people who have altitude sickness again, and I am determined to wave the army to attack Dazarugon the day after tomorrow!" After I leave with the Western Qin Army, you will always have to take over, and you will command the Central Plains Army when the battle is engaged, what do you think? ”

Wang rarely hugged his fists and said, "Thank you, King!" ”

After speaking, the king hesitated for a moment and said: "The king, the first emperor's holy decree・・・・・・ the end of the general for the king is not worth it, although the king has been promoted to the title and can freely control the West Qin, but he is afraid that he will not be able to return to the Central Plains in the future, this is too cruel for the Dashuai family, I and other colleagues in the army are too late to learn the news, if we knew that this would be the case, we will definitely write to the first emperor to stop this matter, but now that the matter has become settled, I am afraid that it can no longer be changed, hey!" ”

The people of the Tang Dynasty all thought that Lingnan was a wild place, and poisonous insects were rampant! And like Mobei, Beiting and Anxi, these border places are all bitter cold places, except for the border, few people are willing to go, if they are not forced to have no choice, no one wants to go to those places to make a living, so although Zhao Ziliang was crowned as the king of Western Qin, and hereditary replacement, but everyone thinks that Zhao Ziliang was assigned, so it is rare for Wang to be worthless for Zhao Ziliang, and he feels wronged.

Zhao Ziliang waved his hand and said with a wry smile: "Thank you General Wang for your kindness, I think this is my best ending!" Since ancient times, loyal ministers have died in vain, the king wants the minister to die, the minister has to die, the father wants the son to die, and the son has to die! The first emperor thought that I had fought for the country for many years, and I had no merit and hard work, and I couldn't bear to harm me, so I set aside the land of Xiqin for me to retire for, and I could grow flowers and plants in Xiqin, raise cattle and sheep, which was already the emperor's grace! ”

It was rare for the king to hear Zhao Ziliang say desolately, and he couldn't help crying at once, and said: "The king, it's not like this, the king has fought for the Tang Dynasty for many years, fighting in the south and the north, and fighting in the east and west, and the king's exploits can compete with the sun and the moon, but now he has ended up being assigned to the Western Qin, and he will not be allowed to return to the Central Plains for eternity, and the killing is just a nod to the ground, the first emperor has gone too far, too much!" ”

Zhao Ziliang hurriedly said: "General Wang is cautious, cautious!" ”

Wang also rarely knew that he was too Meng Lang to say this, if it spread to the court, he was afraid that a catastrophe would come, after all, the courtiers did not say anything about the fault of the monarch's father, saying this kind of thing was tantamount to a great rebellion, not to mention that the future is not guaranteed, and it is possible to lose his life, so he immediately stopped crying.

On the first day of November, Zhao Ziliang waved his troops to advance southward, and the army of 100,000 horses and horses slaughtered to the garrison of the Tubo military defense area.

"Report - King Qiyu, all 35,000 men and horses of the Tubo army are dispatched and are killing our army!"

"Report - the king, the Tubo army stopped advancing twenty miles ahead, and began to line up in place!"

"Report - the king, the Tubo army has completed its formation, and is waiting for our army to go to the decisive battle!"

Zhao Ziliang, who was riding on a war horse, heard the news from the outpost and asked, "In addition to the Tubo army in front, is there any trace of the Tubo army thirty miles away?" ”

"King, on the left is the Yellow River, the east of the Yellow River is occupied by our army, there is no Tubo army brigade, our army has explored the right side thirty years away, and there is no trace of the Tubo army!"

Zhao Ziliang thought for a moment and ordered: "Quickly find out what kind of formation the Tubo army has arranged!" ”

"Yes, King!"

Soon, the sentry quickly came back and reported, "King, the Tubo army is arranged in a three-part formation on the left, the center and the right, with 10,000 cavalry on the left and right flanks, and 15,000 infantry on the left and right flanks!" ”

Zhao Ziliang was a little incredulous: "This simple formation arranged by the Tubo army? ”

"Yes, King!"

Zhao Ziliang thought for a while, and ordered to the marching Sima Chen Qing: "Pass the order, the whole army will slow down, and when it arrives at the ten miles of the Tubo army, the infantry of each department will move closer to the middle to form the middle army, and order the Modao to be deployed in the front of the infantry, and the cavalry will spread out to the two wings, slow down the march, the cavalry of the front, left and right armies will be arranged on the left wing, the cavalry of the original middle army, the original rear army, and the Youyi army will be arranged on the right wing, and the cavalry of the heavy armored iron cavalry and the Central Plains army will be deployed in the rear!" ”

"Yes, King!" Chen Qing agreed and immediately conveyed the order.

Chu Ge asked puzzledly: "Great King, since the formation arranged by the Tubo army is so simple, then why don't we leave all the heavy cavalry and other light cavalry in front, and wait for the two sides to meet each other, as long as one charge can crush the Tubo army, forgive them and they can't make any big waves!" ”

Zhao Ziliang shook his head and said: "No, Chu Ge, you are still too impulsive, Dazaru Gong is not a person with great ambitions and talents, nor is he a stupid person, he only has 35,000 people now, and he still lacks food, grass, armaments, bows and arrows, but he puts on such a simple formation, it is really incomprehensible!" We still have to be careful, in addition, when our army and the Tubo army face each other, they have already set up a position to wait for work, and we have just arrived and have an unstable foothold, if the cavalry is placed in front, it is easy to be impacted by the cavalry of the Tubo army, our army has too many soldiers and horses, and it will be very difficult to adjust in time, and if the infantry is placed in the middle and protrudes forward, the infantry can be quickly arranged into a defensive formation, and the Modao army can be deployed in the front of the infantry to easily strangle the light cavalry that the other party rushes over! Now our army has the advantage in strength, but we can't be careless, the more we are at this time, the more we can't give the Tubo army a chance to take advantage of! ”

Chu Ge clenched his fists and said: "The last general will be taught!" ”

The wind blows like a knife, and many soldiers have cracked their faces and mouths, which is why the border pass is called the land of bitter cold, which is why the soldiers of the Tang Army have not fully adapted to the climate and terrain here, if they adapt, the soldiers will know how to avoid freezing their hands and feet, how to avoid dry faces, lips and skin.

Zhao Ziliang originally decided to find a way to get something out to protect the soldiers from freezing, but the time was tight and there were many affairs in the army, so he didn't find time for a long time.
