Chapter 0738. Lu Dongzan's strategy

The sun seems to favor Lhasa in particular, as soon as the sun rises, the holy but not strong sunlight shines warmly over the city, and the Potala Palace is warm, and the new day of this ancient empire is so unhurried. [ads:This site has a new URL,Shorthand method:,.]

Along with this was the disorder throughout the Tibetan kingdom, and early in the morning, Zampu's herald messengers went from house to house to issue orders to the uneasy nobles.

Before the nobles could wake up from the shock that the Zhangxiong had been defeated for several days near Lhasa, they were immediately stunned by Zampu's order.

Gather all the soldiers of your clan, bring your own armor and horses, five days of food, and go all out to meet Zhangxiong!

The annual reward of official rice is gone, and the clan has to bring their own armor, horses, grain and grass, this requirement is too much, right?

Speaking of dissatisfaction, almost all the families in Lhasa, and the sixty-one Dongdai Wuru and seventeen subject countries outside the city were dissatisfied, but none of them dared to delay, because it was not only the order of Zampu that came, but also the totem seal of a lion's head and a big dog.

That's the sign of the Gar family!

From the beginning of following the ancestor Songtsen Gampo, the Gar family has always been the Tibetan mastiff of the Tubo Dynasty, Wen Ke is far away from diplomacy, Wu Ke leads thousands of troops and horses, the decisive battle is thousands of miles away, the Gar family is also the highest representative of the military strategy of the Songtsen Gampo era, if you do not obey the military order, you will reduce the noble fiefdom, and the heavy will be degraded as a slave, and beheaded to show the public.

The sign of the Tibetan mastiff appeared on the order of Zanpo, indicating that now the Gar family, which represents the powerful faction, and the authority of Tibet, Zampu, have come together again, and the two irresistible forces are united, who dares to resist? Therefore, despite his reluctance, the Tibetan people still had to follow the order.

The city of Lhasa, which has rioted for many days, began to become quiet, but the vicinity of the Huimengtai on the banks of the Lhasa River became noisy, and Tubo was rich in recent years, almost all the weapons and armor left by the families, and the war horses raised were good, and in a blink of an eye, Tubo gathered more than 40,000 armored cavalry, and the children of the nobles were freed from the boring polo and archery women they played on weekdays, and they took their weapons again and stepped on the battlefield, but they were all eager to try.

Similarly, the civilian slave armament, which is the vast base of the army, is also much stronger than the previous Tibetan army, at least not the kind of thin and incompetent that can fight when they get on horseback, unlike in the past, they had to assemble and replenish for a month or two.

And only war can change fate, in the atmosphere of peace for a long time, the slaves are eager to change their fate, and the morale of the slave army seems to be a little stronger than that of the backbone of the Tibetan aristocratic children.

In just one or two days, about 160,000 Tibetan cavalry gathered around Lhasa from the nearby military regions Ru and Dongdai.

And this time, the Tubo people not only have soldiers, but also have good generals, Zampu Mangsong Mangzan abandoned the Bon mage he had appointed, and re-activated the good generals of the Gar family, and the commander of the 160,000 army was Qinling, the second son of Ludong Zan, mixed with a number of other generals, and clarified the upper and lower commands.

Although the big family in Tubo does not want to admit it, but in fact, Tubo at this time is indeed only the Gar family is good at fighting, in previous years with Tuguhun, Zhangxiong wars are handled by Lu Dongzan, the Gar family army has experienced several times to send troops to Fujian, expedition to Nantianzhu and a series of wars, it can be said that there is no Gar family within a radius of 10,000 miles has not fought.

On the other hand, Qinling's military talent is also very outstanding, in normal history, it was this inferior family nobleman known as Qinling who defeated Xue Rengui, who was accustomed to fighting, and the invincible Tang Dynasty was almost wiped out in the battle of Dafeichuan, and then infiltrated the Qinghai grassland, which collapsed the Tuyuhun regime supported by the Tang Dynasty, forcing Princess Honghua to flee to Chang'an with her husband Nuo Haobo.

Let the completion of Emperor Yang of Sui, Tang Taizong did not complete the feat, and Tang Gaozong Li Zhitu, who conquered Goguryeo, was helpless. It was not until Mangsong Mangzan succeeded to the throne that the lord of the country, Juniper Mangbojie, forced the Qinling to commit suicide, and completely destroyed the Gar family, that the war situation between Tubo and the Tang Dynasty was reversed, and the battle for Qinghai failed, and the battle for the Western Regions failed, and finally had to sue for peace with the Tang Dynasty, and it was stable until the Anshi Rebellion.

Under the mutual compromise of political forces, Tubo rebuilt a strong division with a stable military heart, and it is indeed as Lu Dongzan said, Zhangxiong and the Yangtongdongnu coalition army regained their former fear and awe, and the coalition army that originally won the battle of the Red River Valley and threatened to attack Lhasa hesitated to the vicinity of Nima County, turned to defend on the spot, and gave up the initiative in the war without fighting.

Such a large army was sent out, not only to contain the foreign enemy, but also to say that the danger of the political struggle within Tibet has disappeared to the point of invisibility, but it is a pity that neither Mangsong nor Ludongzan has been relieved, and there is an even more thorny problem that has not been solved.

Min and the Tang Dynasty.

That night, after Chi Ma Lun's question, he muttered for a long time, and Lu Dongzan answered like this.

"Sandwiched between the two big countries, it is both the luck and misfortune of Tibet!"

Almost on the same morning as the assembly of the army, the Tibetan army once again surrounded the remaining half of the Jokhang Temple, and all the members of the Chang'an mission were dragged out.

"Tubo has already offended Fujian, and it would be unwise to offend the Tang Dynasty again!" Under the suppression of the iron claw-like palms of the Tubo soldiers, Ren Yaxiang was still unwilling to persuade hard, and behind him, Guo Zhifeng directly scolded madly.

"My Tang army will definitely break through Lhasa in the near future and arrest Lao Tzu, you will definitely regret it!"

It's a pity, as Princess Wencheng said, there is often only one chance, and if you miss it, there will be no more. No matter how reasonable or threatening the mission was, the Tibetan officials who came to arrest them ignored them, especially Lu Dongzan, who didn't even look at them, and was engrossed in their own interrogation.

was personally interrogated by the Tibetan minister, and more than ten of them were ordered by Princess Wencheng to cooperate with Guo Beifeng to defeat the centurion, and the officers all knelt on the ground tremblingly, knowing everything and saying everything.

"Back to the Prime Minister, that day did not completely annihilate the Fujian mission, a small group of missions broke through the east wall, the guards were extremely elite, killing and wounding hundreds of our soldiers, and even Lord Gulu was killed."

"Oh? Do you know where they are? Lu Dongzan couldn't help frowning, and a dozen centurions hurriedly kowtowed in fear.

"Back to the prime minister, no, this group of people dispersed after entering the lane, and their subordinates killed thirteen Fujian people before and after, and never found their traces, there should be three or four people who escaped."

At this moment, a look of understanding bloomed on Lu Dongzan's old face, and then Lu Dongzan waved his hand again: "You wait to go down first, in the short term, you must not go out anywhere."

"Whoa!"

After settling the mission in Chang'an, Lu Dongzan hurried to the eastern suburbs to dig a grave.

It's really a grave digger! A total of 55 people from the Fujian delegation that were attacked that day were directly killed on the spot, and the bodies of these people were also directly buried in the mass graves not far from Lhasa.

Around like this, the strong smell of corpses is still smoked, and people can't get close, everyone is covering their noses, but Lu Dongzan seems to have not smelled anything, and he approached himself.

On that day, Guo Zhifeng presented three heads to Chi Ma Lun, and said that he had killed Qin Huaiyang, Li Xueyan, and Li Quan, the deputy envoy of the Fujian State, but there were five or six people who had no heads in the mass grave.

On this end, in the northern suburbs of Lhasa, the army was still gathering, but Zampu abandoned military affairs and was busy with other things.

The best Southeast Asian rosewood coffins, originally specially imported from Fujian to bury dignitaries, are now all taken out to dress up these nobodies of the Fujian mission, as many as 3,000 Tibetan nobles came out for funeral, and it was Zanpu himself to send the funeral, this scale, in Tubo even after the death of Dalun can not enjoy.

In the weeping of countless people, true or false, the long funeral procession went straight to the tomb of the king of Tubo Zampu in the past dynasties, where there was already a tomb prepared for the Tubo Theory.

It is also an extremely grand ceremony, hundreds of monks turn the scriptures and recite the scriptures, for the deceased to exceed, one by one in the kneeling of the Tibetan nobles, fifty-five coffins were placed in the tomb, the cruel scene happened again, hundreds of Tibetan people were killed on the spot, martyred.

And this time the slaughter is no longer a lowly slave, but the Tubo soldiers who participated in the encirclement and interception of the Fujian delegation that night, these people never thought that they would kill people so desperately, but in the end they ended up being martyred, especially the dozen centurions who were questioned by Lu Dongzan in the morning, begging for mercy even overshadowed the flow of the Lhasa River, but no matter how they begged for mercy, they were still killed collectively without mercy.

Especially after the grand funeral, Guo Zhifeng, Ren Yaxiang and others were dragged out again, imprisoned in a cage on the spot, guarding the tomb for the Fujian mission.

Politically, this move, Tubo bowed to the Min State to the extreme.

Under the afterglow of the setting sun, watching the tired Tibetan nobles swaying towards Lhasa City, Mangsong Mangzan was still full of unconfidence, and asked Lu Dongzan, who was leading the way, suspiciously.

"Great Minister, even if we do this, can we repair the relationship with Fujian? Even if Tubo bows his head to the extreme, and the main and deputy envoys of Fujian are killed, they can't see it! ”

"No, the Min people can see it." At the mention of this, Lu Dongzan's old face couldn't help but show a full smile, and then his head that was shaking on the horse twisted to the side again, and asked with a smile: "The little offspring of the mother's family, are you right?" Don't look at others, little fat man, it's you! ”

The noble lady of the maiden family who was mixed in the crowd couldn't help but have weak legs, and sat on the ground in fright
