Chapter 450: Tubo Soldiers

'Master, there is a situation. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info', a large family in a city, a rider on a fast horse, rushed into the door. A young man, running quickly to the main hall, a middle-aged man sitting in front of a desk, heard the footsteps, raised his head, and a young man strode in.

'Shen'er, what's the matter?' The middle-aged man raised his head, the years left a mark of wisdom on his face, a pair of eyes with black and white eyes, Wei Ling has a god, a Chinese face, and the bridge of the nose is high to show that this person is determined,

A square mouth gives people a feeling that they can be trusted by being decent. The young man is very similar to him, and it can be seen that it is a father-son relationship.

'Shang Wanwen and Nonkong Re, the two fought another battle in the Heyuan army, and this time Shang Wanwen was defeated. The young man said excitedly, "There is news that he stayed, Tuoba Huaiguang guarded Shanzhou, and went to the west of Guazhou to eat." ’

'Oh. The middle-aged man twisted his hand and thought, "What is the loss of Shang Jun?" "It shouldn't be small, otherwise you wouldn't have to go to Ganzhou, obviously because you are afraid of Kong fever." The young man thought for a moment and said.

'If you probe again, you must inquire clearly, and the nearby states have real troops. The middle-aged man put down his pen and said solemnly, "Also, get ready, it's time for me to act." ’

The young man shook his head and said with great joy, 'Finally, is it finally time to act?' I've been waiting for a long time. ''Hmm. The middle-aged man showed a smile, he had been looking forward to it for a long time, "Tell Ming Zhen to get ready, remember to leak the news." The young man went as ordered, and the middle-aged man looked out the window at the sky, thinking about many things, and was distracted for a while.

Under the same sky, the left army of Shence is marching the mountain road, from Wonju to Huizhou, there is a big mountain in between, and the mountain road is not so easy to walk, although there is also a trail left by the predecessors before, which can have been submerged in nature, Xiaohu They can be regarded as reopening a road.

In fact, it will be faster to walk from Anle Prefecture, but it is just that Tang Yi is mixed here, and he is afraid of leaking the news of the left army of Shence, so he stays in Yuanzhou.

Anle Prefecture, there is a road leading directly to Huizhou, and there is a highway here in the back, it is conceivable that the road conditions here are much better, and it is also suitable for the army to pass. However, in order to keep it secret and to conceal the offensive against Huizhou, Xiaohu and they stayed in Yuanzhou.

Weizhou, after being recovered, it was renamed Anle Prefecture, in fact, it was originally Anle Prefecture, Tuyuhun was destroyed by Tubo in the early Tang Dynasty, Gaozong intended to restore the country for it, and sent the famous general Xue Rengui to fight with Tubo in Dafeichuan, but unfortunately because the generals of the rear army did not agree with him, the enemy rushed forward, resulting in the whole division of the baggage, had to negotiate and return, Tuyuhun restored the dream of the country was shattered, and the rest of the department was placed in Anle Prefecture, becoming the Tang Dynasty's fetters and states.

This is also the reason why the Tang Yi are mixed here, and even here, it does not belong to the Han race, and it is still above the number of Han people. God knows if there is eyeliner here in Tibet.

In this way, they walked back and forth on the mountain road for half a month, and finally got out of the mountain range and approached Huizhou City. The straight-line distance is more than two hundred miles, and they only walk more than ten miles a day, which is very fast, but Xiaohu is still not satisfied.

We are still not used to walking this mountain road. Finally walked out of the mountain road, Xiaohu looked back at the mountain range that he had just walked out, although he had entered Shu, but he took the official road, not as good as here, almost a sheep intestine path.

'Do you want to advise the saints, let's set up a special mountain army.' Like Liu Xuande, set up a flying army without dang, who can walk like flying in the mountains and leap freely. ’

'If it's going to be established, you go and be a general, don't take me with you.' In the past half a month, Li Chengyi, who was also tortured enough, said, "I regret it, why didn't you go to Anle Prefecture in the first place, what is the eyeliner, let the Tubo people come if they want to come,'

"If we come here, we are still two days away from Huizhou, and when we came from Anle State, we will also pass through here, so why bother." Li Chengyi complained, in exchange for Gao Yu's spit, "At the beginning, you also said that we should do everything possible to keep it secret, but now you are complaining." ’

'Ignore him, let's go first, this person is a mouth, very good at talking, and dares to think about anything, and now he is asking for his own trouble. ''I'll arrange for the cavalry to block the road first, and try to ensure that it is as sudden as possible.'' ’

After Gao Biao finished speaking, he found the herald, and soon the herald got on his horse and galloped away like a party, and then, several cavalry teams rushed in the direction of Huizhou. These were the cavalry of the Left Army of Shence, numbering about a thousand people. If you look closely, you will see that their clothes are different from ordinary people.

Basically, these are the Tibetans, that is, the last time they attacked Victoria, those who had to be taken prisoner, selected 1,000 of them with better riding skills, and formed the Tang Army's cavalry team.

Now it is best for them to go out and block the road, because they are originally Tibetan people, belonging to the Tongchu tribe of Tibet.

The Tongche tribe is not that tribe, it is a specialized scout tribe in Tibet. Not all Tibetan scouts are called Tongchu tribes, but the tribes that are accustomed to the name Tongcheek are widely distributed, and it should be deliberately distributed by the Tubo people. Their distribution is generally on the margins, like Khotan, and there are also places in the newly conquered Liangzhou of Tibet.

In that year, Chisong Dezan captured Liangzhou, trapped eighteen forts, and the Longshan Mountains were all in his hands. He set up a 'Tongchou' five-foot dai in the area. Qi Dai is the meaning of ten thousand households, and "Tong Cheek" five Qi Dai, which means five thousand households scout tribe. This is only some of the scouts stationed in the Hexi area, not all of the Tibetan scouts. There is no way, people have a lot of horses, so they can be set up like this.

There is also such a Tongcheek tribe in Victoria, except for some of them, most of them have joined the Shence Left Army and become a cavalry team of the Shence Left Army, and the other captives did not dispose of them, temporarily letting them live in peace, but the tribe Jiebao, large and small leaders, etc., were all sent to Chang'an, and they were called to enjoy them, but in fact, they were hostages.

Li Chen didn't really like this kind of mixed soldiers of other races. If it's modern, no problem, he doesn't discriminate against them. But the Tang Dynasty...

In fact, there were many famous foreign generals in the Tang Dynasty, and they were all loyal to the Tang Dynasty, and there were not many who were really betrayed by the Tang Dynasty. It's just a rat feces, a pot of porridge is broken, and an An Lushan comes out, which makes Li Chen's impression of the alien race very bad.

It's no wonder that he, knowing the history of the Western Roman Empire, he has a deep vigilance against these alien mercenaries, in his opinion, these people are just white-eyed wolves who can't be raised.

Also, there is an anti-bone boy in Chinese history, Nurhachi. He can succeed, what thirteen deputy armor soldiers started, relying on this.

At that time, there were a large number of Jurchens in the Northeast, who either lived in the cities or were employed by local officials or even generals.

Why did Nurhachi sweep the northeast, it was they who relied on it. Attacking the city, or fighting with the Ming army, all have these eyeliners to help. Attacking the city, they helped open the city gates, engaged the Ming army, they helped spy on the military situation, and the Ming generals were still defenseless against them.

For various reasons, Li Chen disliked these alien soldiers very much. He can accept that there are these people in Datang, if you live, you will live, and I will keep to myself, and I will not do anything to you.

However, as for the army, Li Chen was very wary of them, fearing that they would learn what military techniques from Datang, how to organize, how to mobilize, and then turn what they learned around and deal with Datang. If in the future, there is another alien race that destroyed the Tang Dynasty, or Li Chen let him serve as the commander of the army, Li Chen will be so angry that he will get up from the grave even if he dies, and die again.

This is not Li Chen's concept alone, the Tang Dynasty has not been affected, there are still many foreign generals in the court, and the border areas are also very accustomed to relying on those nomads who have been recruited. But in the Song Dynasty, Huayi's defense gradually rose, and it ran through later generations, although there were still many ethnic minorities who participated in the war, and some people were rewarded, but there was no one who could really become an official. Of course, the Manchus are no exception, they claim to be the masters of China, and they are too tight to defend the Han people like slaves, and they would rather make friends with foreign forces, measure China's material resources, and make friends and countries, and absolutely must not let the "alien race" threaten their Manchu status.

Although he was wary of aliens, in the end, Li Chen decided to accept them. Integrate them into the regular army system of the Tang Dynasty. There are many reasons, first of all, you can't give up eating because of choking. In history, it is not without ethnic minority soldiers and horses who have made great contributions to China, such as the famous female general Qin Liangyu. In the Tang Dynasty, there were more such examples, and it was not possible to say that ethnic minorities were thinking that people harbored evil intentions.

The more important reason is that Li Chen intends to try to achieve a national policy. Since we want ethnic integration, then we should all integrate into the Han nationality. He plans to take advantage of Datang's advantages in culture, economy and other aspects to integrate all those different nationalities together.

The unification is all said to be sinicized, learn Chinese characters, and wear Hanfu. He will not deliberately erase those foreign races, but he will deliberately let them integrate into the Tang Dynasty, and they will no longer be separated from each other. A scar, if it is good, it must be allowed to recover quietly, and if there is nothing to provoke the scar, see if it is good, it is not big enough at all, or there is no willingness to heal the wound.

Like Taiwan, what is the 228th anniversary, every day on this day, the chairman of the KMT party has to come out and apologize for something. Decades have passed, and if you don't talk about him, how many people still remember? What commemorates, what heals pain, and what learns lessons, it is simply to stir up things and make people forget them for the rest of their lives.

If you don't mention it, he doesn't mention it, decades have passed, and the younger generation, I'm afraid I don't know about it for a long time. deliberately has a holiday every year, which is basically to provoke scars and fix votes for a certain party.

The same is true of the national issue, and the best way to deal with the national issue is for all of us to do the same. What ethnic minorities add points, what autonomous regions, is simply a deliberate distinction between different races. What else does the American have a black cultural anniversary, according to a certain black actor, if you don't mention him, everyone will not think of it, the more you commemorate it, the more it reminds people of the difference.

He felt that it should not be difficult for him to deal with the issue of race now. Just like in later generations, everyone wanted to go to a certain country to get a residence permit, and now Datang, for those ethnic minorities, is almost equivalent to the lighthouse country.

Therefore, these Tubo people are all pilots, and he wants to use the peer power of the army to influence these people and slowly integrate them into the Tang Dynasty. That's why he agreed to let them join the Left Army of Shence.

Li Chen is just to try it, if he can't even do the left army of Shence, the traditional Tang army, let alone this ability, in all Chinese dynasties, probably no one has thought about the problem of assimilation.

After passing through this mountain, they repaired at the foot of the mountain for a day, waiting for the arrival of the follow-up troops, and also strengthened the camp, which would become a transit point for grain and grass. Of course, if you want to transport grain and grass, you can't take the mountain road, you will come from Anle Prefecture, set up here, mainly there is a back road, take advantage of the danger of the mountain, in case of attack, you can transfer part of the grain and grass to the mountain, and use the mountain to resist. According to intelligence in the Western Regions this year, the grain harvest has failed, and it is impossible not to take risks without preventing Tibet.

'What's that?' On the city wall, wearing a brown, long sleeves on the left side, tight robes to the Tibetan soldiers, found that there were people in the distance, at this time, several fast horses approached the city wall, the soldiers were nervous, and the Tubo people at the city gate also found that something was wrong, and they were also alert, at this time, several horsemen and horses approached, and they also saw clearly, the one in front was the Tubo Tonglu cavalry, huh? It's also in the back, what's going on?

'Close the gates. At this time, the rider in front of him, shouting loudly, immediately fell off his horse, rolled to the ground, and the sharp-eyed person could find that he had a short arrow stuck in his back, and the body of the arrow had been deeply inserted into his body, and the blood was gushing like a spring, and he lost his master's war horse, and suddenly felt a light on his back, and he spun around in place.

'Tsk, I can really run, it seems that there is no hope. The squad leader of the cavalry said with a little regret, looking at the city gate close at hand. They had a good strategy for the left army to get through the scouts, in addition to listening to the military situation, there was also the meaning of blockading the news of Huizhou, and the first two days were very smooth, but today something went wrong, so that this scout almost escaped, although he was killed, but he almost ran to the city gate, so that their plan to keep it secret was in vain.

'Let's go, there's no way around it. Looking at the city gate that was alarmed and slowly closed, the team leader Le Ma was about to turn around, and there was no way to run, if he wasn't so close to Huizhou, it wouldn't be a matter for him to run such a distance. Now that it's close to Huizhou, the news hasn't leaked, and it's not too much of a failure.

After a while, the distant horizon was full of dust, and the Tang army had to approach the brigade, and the front camp arrived, and the guard opened the formation, and then several armies approached and began to camp. Xiaohu took a few officers and used binoculars to observe the city wall from a distance, and the first battle to recover and Huang was about to start.

And at this time, Li Chen was also waiting for news from afar with anticipation, "Calculate the time, they should also arrive in Huizhou." ’

'Saints, the people have arrived. A palace maid woke up Li Chen, who was looking into the distance, Li Chen straightened his clothes, and slowly climbed the Yanxi gatehouse, waiting for the heads to move, and when Li Chen boarded the gatehouse, the joy was thunderous.

At this time, neither Li Chen nor Xiaohu would have thought that an earth-shattering evil loss was waiting for them. (To be continued.) )
