readx; The wind and snow in the sky decorated the heavens and the earth in chaos, except for the snow-white earth and mountain peaks, only the gray sky that appeared in the cracks of the wind and snow, as if everything in the world had been withdrawn from it, and all human activities were as insignificant as ants in the face of the power of heaven and earth, and they could only let the power of this realm of gods continue to wreak havoc.

If there are still people going out in such ghost weather, it is simply looking for death, because the cold alone can quickly take away the body temperature on his body, not to mention that this is still located on the plateau, the air is thin on the land of Tibet.

But there is always a lord in the world who does not believe in evil, and there is really a figure in the vast snow, he is not an idle person, but the Tibetan Zanpu Gesang.

How could Gesang, who is the lord of a country in Tibet, appear in such barren mountains and mountains? Of course, he would not travel alone, and he was followed by a full 50,000 Tibetan army.

Gesang was not a stupid man, but he did something that bordered on stupidity in the eyes of ordinary people, that is, marching in winter. Gesang would do this, of course, out of desperation, because his brother Prince Sadit was entrenched in the territory of the former Ri Zebu and openly confronted him, Zampu. All the envoys sent by Gesang to persuade him to surrender were all killed by him, and in order to expand the power of Tibet, Gesang had to have a stable rear, so there was no other way but to use troops to conscript. The problem is that the terrain in the southwest of Tibet, where the Japanese Ministry is located, is complex and dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and in order to conquer here, Gesang's father also appointed almost all the elite soldiers and good generals of Tubo to go out to seize this place. After that, Gesang seized the position of Zampu, and Sadit took the opportunity to support the army and stand on his own feet in the Japanese army, and in recent years, Gesang has been continuously divided through various means, attracting Sadit's subordinates, and successfully rebelling against many Tibetan generals to submit to him, thus greatly weakening Sadit's strength. However, Sadit still stubbornly entrenched in the Japanese Ministry and continued to confront him with his remaining forces.

If the Tibetans were to attack from the front, then there would inevitably be a bitter battle, so that even if they won, the Tibetans would be wounded, and it would be impossible to make any external expansion within a few years.

Gesang didn't want to do this, so his only way was to attack Sadit by surprise, and only if Sadit didn't have time to react could he pacify this separatist force at a relatively small cost. Facing his younger brother, who was as good at commanding operations as himself, Gesang knew that only the winter when he could not enter the army was when Sadit neglected to take precautions, but to find a feasible battle plan from this harsh winter when it was impossible to enter the army, the hard work behind Gesang was not something ordinary people could imagine.

First of all, he sent a large number of small works to reconnoiter the Japanese area, and his target was of course not only the opponent's outposts and garrison strongholds, but also an important mission, that is, hot springs hidden in the mountains.

Only in the vicinity of the hot springs can the troops get a chance to rest and recuperate, so that they can survive in such a difficult environment. After three years of secret preparation, Gesang's efforts finally paid off - his meticulous work found two very remote hot springs, and there were considerable scales, where a considerable number of troops could be stationed, and there were not only hot springs, but also no snow all year round, and edible weeds for horses, but because the roads were so difficult to travel, almost no one wanted to settle here in winter. With this information, Gesang's actions today are possible. He secretly mobilized a large army to garrison the border area, and then took advantage of the wind and snow to start marching, and after crossing the border, he avoided the outposts and strongholds and went straight to the two hot springs.

Even after such preparations, Gesang still lost a large number of men, and only 50,000 of the 70,000 people at the time of his departure made it to the hot springs. But the ensuing snowstorm continued, and it didn't stop for more than 20 days, and seeing that there was a shortage of supplies for the troops, how could Gesang not be in a hurry? He left the camp alone and went outside in a snowy area to check if the weather was improving.

At this time, another person came against the wind and snow, and from his figure, Gesang recognized that it was his military advisor Rodsarn.

"The wind and snow don't stop at all." Gesang couldn't help but complain.

Rodsarn disagreed: "What Zampu said is wrong, things in the world must be reversed, how can this storm and snow last?" Even if it rages for a few more days, it will definitely usher in clear skies. On the contrary, such a terrible weather must have made Sadit neglect his defense, and when our army appeared in front of him like a divine soldier, it would be impossible to stun Sadit and his subordinates. ”

Gesang listened to his comfort and barely squeezed out a smile: "I hope that as you said, if the wind and snow continue for half a month, our army will fall into a desperate situation where it is unable to advance and retreat." ”

"Every soldier knows the situation of our army, but this matter must always be divided into two sides, and if the guidance is appropriate, this desperate situation is an excellent material to stimulate the potential in people's hearts."

Gesang did not answer Rodsarn's words, he knew that Rodsarn's words were correct, but only if he could set out to attack the enemy army before the army was discouraged. At the moment, even if you have the heart to do it, there are no necessary conditions.

That night, Gesang was so sad that he couldn't sleep, and after pouring three full pots of wine, he fell asleep on the blanket.

The next day, while still asleep in a hangover, Gesang was woken up by the cheers of the soldiers outside, and he got up and rushed out of his tent, because he heard the soldiers shouting "Sun, sun." ”

Except for the tents, it was already bright outside, and the entire hot spring valley was illuminated by the sun, and the snow melted by the hot spring was hanging among the grass.

"You're really talking about it." Gesang said to Rodsarn, who was walking briskly.

"This is the Bodhisattva's blessing to my lord!"

Rodsarn's reminder was immediately taken advantage of by Gesang, who jumped on his horse, drew his saber from his waist and shouted to his subordinates: "Bodhisattva bless us!" Let the wind and snow stop in time! At this moment, Sadit is hiding in the house to roast the fire, so let's go and get him out of the house and let him see the true power of the Tibetan warriors! ”

Gesang's words immediately caused a shocking response in the hot spring valley: "Bodhisattva bless! Our army will win! Our army will win! ”

Gesang immediately ordered the whole army to start a full-scale attack on Sadit, and this battle related to the unification of Tibet finally began in early 811 of the Gregorian calendar. (To be continued.) )
