Arabic proverb: Before you see your enemies, your virtues will spread among them!

……

The town of Heka was deserted, almost every room was empty, and there was nothing in it except for a few pieces of furniture that could not be moved. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Almost all of them were stone houses, so low that the tall Tang army repeatedly touched the door frame.

But a house is a house, and it is better to live in than a tent, so everyone does not care, and when they find a fire pit or a stove or something, the army quickly gives an order to slaughter the livestock they bring with them and raise a fire to make food!

After eating fried flour for a few days, it is a very happy thing to be able to eat hot rice, especially the aroma of wolfberry beef soup stewed in a large pot, well, I forgot to mention a medicinal material, wolfberry, Tonghuang County produces wolfberry in large quantities, so Tang Jun regarded it as a medicinal herb and snack.

The town is a good thing, there is usually a large source of clean water, and the few wells in the town are overcrowded, first cooking soup, then feeding horses, camels, cattle and sheep, and then people come to wash, very happy.

"That's how this man is satisfied!" Cheng Boxi taught Shi Wanchao: "I am in Zhaowulou in the capital, and I choose the most tender mutton to eat, and it is not as good as the coarse beef that can be eaten here!"

Shi Wanchao didn't make a sound, just looked at him quietly, Cheng Boxi looked uncomfortable for him, and asked strangely: "What's wrong?" “

"That...... Is the Great General really a Great Demon? Shi Wanchao asked tentatively.

"Ugh!" Cheng Boxi asked him, and said after a while: "If he hadn't come to the world as a great demon, if he hadn't descended to earth as a great god, he wouldn't be a human anyway!" ”

Shi Wanchao, who can also be regarded as a member of the brave general, nodded again and again!

People at the time were superstitious, Wei Xi was talented, he had almost never lost a battle since his debut, and he was proficient in poetry and songs, and he was proficient in the art of building management, and he was still so young! Everyone was thinking that he was not an ordinary person.

"But don't worry!" Cheng Boxi wanted to pat Shi Wanchao's shoulder, but found that Shi Wanchao was too tall to pat, so he slapped his arm and said, "Even if he is a big demon, he will not eat us, but eat the Tubo people!" ”

Shi Wanchao nodded solemnly and remembered Cheng Boxi's words.

The soldiers who listened around were also nodding their heads, believing Cheng Boxi's words.

……

After a night's rest in the town of Heka, the 1st Division continued its departure.

The weather was still very good, and the road was always lined with green meadows, which stretched into the distance, climbed the lawn hill, and disappeared into the clouds that floated halfway up the mountainside, and the clouds and mist never let the top of the mountain show its face.

The terrain was elevated, and some officers and soldiers suffered from altitude sickness, but the situation was not bad, at most they were dizzy and nasal congestion, in fact, the general's military training was very effective, and the officers and soldiers adapted to the plateau climate.

I saw the boundary of Hot Spring Town in front, and I also saw the Tubo people in front of me, at least tens of thousands of people!

Tens of thousands of people are terrifying, and the black oppression is overwhelming, and the flags are unfurled, covering the hills and hills.

It's finally time to see the real chapter, it's all cavalry, and it looks like it's well equipped, with half-body armor, shields, bows and arrows, spears and sabers... Before, the Tubo people always gathered heavy troops to fight with the Tang army, the Tubo people were poor, and there were few iron weapons, so they didn't need more soldiers to pile up the Tang army, but how to fight.

The Tibetans here are brave enough to dare to form a formation to fight us!

The officers and men of the 1st Division were both nervous and excited, the army was already infantry, and there was no chance of winning in a cavalry fight, but fifteen miles away, there were 10,000 cavalry of the Tang Army following them, and they were hurriedly transferred up, and they were able to play a game with the Tubo people.

However, the order of the higher authorities is to assemble the troops and meet them!

The one who led the troops was General Wei, how could he use 10,000 infantry to fight 10,000 cavalry, what he was best at was to fight more and less, as long as possible.

The positions on both sides are open, and the cavalry camp of Tubo is at least half fatter than that of the Tang army, and it seems that the Tang army's military strength is not good!

Then the officers and men of the 1st Division and the Tibetans looked at the heads and appeared, and each of them led a group of cavalry, and drove towards each other, and in the center of the large array on both sides they met.

……

The leader of the Tibetan people was a small, small-eyed man with a mustache and pigtails, and although his appearance was not striking, his eyes were very cunning.

"Long time no see! Long Bayo! My friend! Wei Xi greeted cordially.

"Yes, my friend! I haven't seen you for a long time, I heard that you married the most favored princess of the Tang Dynasty Khan in the capital, and changed your name, I can't believe it! Changbayo said with emotion, he spoke half-baked Chinese.

Changbayo, the leader of the Modoka tribe on the shore of Zaleng Lake, was probably the Tubo people Wei Xi was most familiar with, although they hadn't actually met a few times.

At the beginning, Chang Bayo was ordered to attack Wei Xi, and after realizing that Wei Xi was not easy to provoke, he fought with Wei Xi for the pasture, and lost all three battles.

Tibet has a large number of furs, medicinal herbs and placer gold and silver, while the Tang Dynasty has silk, tea and fine utensils, each taking its own needs, making a lot of money!

Changba is cunning, in the second Dafeichuan War, he saw that the situation was not good, and fled early with his own troops and horses, so as to protect the main force, and because of the benefits of trade, he was quite well equipped, on par with the Tang army (not that Wei Xi sold equipment to him, but that he had money to buy good ones, and Tubo produced some good weapons, which were not large, and bought a lot of them for him, and there were also weapons for sale in the Western Regions), so after the war, his strength did not fall but rose.

This time he was ordered to intercept the Tang army's attack, and after Wei Xi knew that it was him, he invited him to meet him.

"My background is too poor, so I have to be attached to a big family, so that I can marry the princess of the Tang Dynasty!" Wei Xi explained.

"That's right!" Changbayo expressed his understanding, and then congratulated Wei Xi and said, "You have good luck!" ”

The army was facing each other, and it was impossible to give them a good time to greet each other, Wei Xi asked, "You want to stop me?" ”

Changbayo said very simply: "I am on orders!" ”

"And how do you want to fight?" Wei Xi also asked politely.

"Fighter! The three battles are won by two wins and one loser, if I win, your Tang army will take a detour! If you win......" As soon as Changbayo said this, Wei Xi rushed to say: "You will submit to our Tang Dynasty!" ”

"You're really good at business!" Changbayo did not deny the authenticity.

"I do do business, I do business, fair trade, real deal!" Wei Xi said with a warm smile on his face.

"You must not be a female general this time!" Changbayo made a request, and Wei Xi did his best to fight the female generals in the last round, which made him suffer enough.

"If you don't come out of the female general, you will lose even more!" Wei Xi said with a smile.

After everyone agreed, the heralds ran in front of their respective formations, shouting loudly the agreement of the main generals on both sides: the two sides will fight, the winner of the three sets and two wins, if the Tubo people win, the Tang army will detour, if the Tang army wins, the Tubo people will be obedient! ”

The two sides are sensational, how can you not hear the cat between them!

However, it is a beautiful thing that does not have to fight to die.

Therefore, the two armies were in a happy mood to see the performance of the generals on both sides. (To be continued.) )
