Chapter 0518. People want to gather
Li Ji proposed that the strategic purpose that made Li Jie's eyes shine was to take the opportunity to recover the fertile territory of Uttar Pradesh, almost half of France, one Britain, three Portugal, seven Switzerland, and ten Belgium, and take the opportunity to sweep away several small Himalayan kingdoms that obeyed the power of Tibet, such as Nibharat, Bhutan, and Sikkim, so as to deter Tibet. [ads:This site has a new URL,Shorthand method:,.]
The Himalayan pass is extremely dangerous, once it is completely controlled, even if Tibet falls to Chang'an, Min will not be afraid of him, and cut off the trade route with Fujian, and starve him to death.
However, this strategic purpose is not so easy to achieve, you must know that the combat power of the Tubo people can not be underestimated, in the northern campaign, about 30,000 Tubo cavalry crushed the more than 400,000 troops of the Jieri Dynasty, and later attacked the kingdom of Nantianzhu Shalou and several other ethnic kingdoms, the Tubo cavalry borrowed from the north is even more invincible, and almost no country's army can withstand the frontal charge of the Tubo iron cavalry.
It is no wonder that Wang Xuance in history borrowed more than 10,000 Tibetan cavalry, plus some Nepalese soldiers, to destroy the usurper of the Jieri Dynasty, Luo Shun, and the Tubo people who expanded in this era did have this strength.
With the left and right Qianniuwei, he defeated the Tubo people in one fell swoop and occupied the huge northern state of Uttar Pradesh, Li Jie also explained that he must be fast, this matter is indeed quite difficult.
Seeing that the Tubo people in the city went out of the city in twos and threes, herding sheep and plowing the fields, after hesitating, Li Yexu finally extinguished his thoughts of attacking the city during the day, turned around and greeted several generals: "Pass the order to the soldiers, hide in the woods, and don't let the Tubo people notice."
"Whoa." Several lieutenants obeyed the order, wearing blades of grass on their helmets, and scattered in all directions, whispering orders to appease the people, listening to the rustling of leaves, and seeing that the more than 2,000 soldiers brought by his command were cautiously hiding in the dense forest, Li Yexu finally nodded with satisfaction.
But this kung fu, Li Yexu suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and slapped his head suddenly: "By the way, Li Wu, hurry up and send an order to General Sheng Lianshan, so that he should not act rashly."
Before he finished speaking, a pig-killing roar suddenly came from the southeast forest: "Little ones, rush with Ben General!"
Seeing the old man with a horizontal knife and the iconic tower helmet of Shenglian Mountain riding on the horse, Li Yexu simply covered his head sadly: "Order the whole army, rush!"
Suddenly, countless Tang troops appeared in the empty wilderness, shouting and attacking the small city in the wilderness, the peace between Fujian and Tibet has lasted for several years, this scene stunned the unprepared defenders of the mother's city.
"Kill! Give it to Lao Tzu! Running on the front line of the whole army, while running wildly, Sheng Lianshan roared fiercely: "Today, our right Qianniuwei must be the first to take the city, otherwise, we will build a dam for Lao Tzu!"
Thousands of Tang troops formed a frontal arrow, and maintained a good order during the attack, shouting, several meters long bamboo punch pole spear like a long extension of the extension, coming to the city, biting the knife, Sheng Lianshan actually grabbed a punch pole with his own hands, and the pole vault was supported under the city root, and it bounced up as soon as he used his strength.
Falling on the city wall like an iron tower, in mid-air, Sheng Lianshan had already grabbed the knife in his hand, and the beautiful whirlwind slashed, and the Tubo slave owner thug who was standing near the city tower in a flash of blood immediately flew up with his head and shoulders.
Bloody blood splashed on the face, Sheng Lianshan's chest is also boiling blood, in the south, the ferocity of the Tubo people when they fought he could see it, and such an opponent to fight, can best arouse the fierce pride of the generals, holding the knife in both hands, Sheng Lianshan roared fiercely: "Come on!" Which one fights Grandpa for 300 rounds? ”
Sure enough, as he expected, listening to his provocation, the Tubo guards on the city wall also roared in unison, seeing the red-faced and fierce Tubo strong man, holding the long knife, Sheng Lianshan's hands trembled with excitement, but the next moment, hundreds of Tubo defenders coaxed, turned around and ran.
Is this still the impression of the Tubo people who are not afraid of death? Sheng Lianshan's eyes widened.
After a while, the other vanguard officers of the Right Thousand Cow Guard also climbed the city wall with a punch pole, and the empty city wall made everyone stunned, and in the shock, everyone gathered around Sheng Lianshan, and asked with concern.
"General, are you alright?"
"What about the Tibetan bandits?"
At this time, he came to his senses and wiped the blood from the knife, Sheng Lianshan put the knife back into the scabbard very awesomely, and raised his bloody head with disdain: "The Tubo bandits have already sent the general away!"
"Why are you still stunned, the general has already taken down the city wall, hurry up and kill Lao Tzu!"
As if waking up from a dream, many officers and soldiers of the Right Thousand Niu Guards roared and killed under the city wall.
Although the Tubo people retreated strangely, but after entering the city, Sheng Lianshan was still quite proud, this is the gate of Uttar Pradesh, he is the first to break the city, and it is faster than Li Yexu, the god of the Tang Dynasty.
It's a pity that the excitement lasted for a while, and Sheng Lianshan's blood-spattered ugly face turned into shock again, and he looked at Li Yexu, who was standing on the street full of ruins, and was directing the soldiers to divide the way to occupy the main road inside, and roared in shock: "Brother Yexu, could it be that Li Weigong really knows how to Qimen Dunjia and let you fly into the city wall?"
"The gate where the younger brother walked." Crying and laughing, Li Yexu turned his head and pointed to the gate of the Niangcheng City, which was empty behind him.
"Isn't it!" In an instant, covering his head, Sheng Lianshan burst into tears.
After a while, Li Yexu regained his normal color, and solemnly pulled Sheng Lianshan and said: "The reaction of the Tubo people is very strange, we have all seen the combat effectiveness of the Tubo cavalry, this is the gateway to Uttar Pradesh, the Tubo people can't be so weak, so we must be careful!"
"Listen to you." Already doubting his own IQ, Sheng Lianshan said dejectedly.
The sword and shield hand held up a shield wall, and the long lance hand put the lance on the shield wall, like a hedgehog, carefully advancing towards the dilapidated maiden city.
At the same time, the Tubo nobleman surnamed Niang in the city, the sissy lord launched a thunderous rage in his tent, jumping up and down like a leather ball, and the sissy kicked out a handful of snot and tears back to report the news of Kang Ba more than a meter away.
"Rubbish! It's all a bunch of rubbish! ”
Finally got up from the ground, Kang Ba shouted sadly: "Master, run, the Tang people are really calling, there are tens of thousands!"
"Tens of thousands are nothing, back then on the grassland, my lord and I followed Master Zampu, and 100,000 elephant male soldiers were trampled through! Dog minions, gather the slave babies to go, Lao Tzu will lead you to fight with Tang Dog! ”
"But." Lying on the yak carpet in embarrassment, Kang Ba was still full of hesitation, seeing the sissy reach out from the wall of the felt bag, and took off the hidden knife with the human skin scabbard, after shivering, Kang Ba crawled out with a leather robe.
The desolate yak horn was whined, a unique sound, the penetrating drum was also beaten, and the slave children from all over the city were quickly gathered together in the sound of the horn, and they were uniformly issued to the Tibetan knife weapons.
In the center of the city, the Tang army and the Tubo people collided together, with shields and long lances, the Tang army stood on the street like hedgehogs, and the opponents were thousands of Tubo people in the mother's city who were wearing leather jackets and robes, although the clothes were shabby and the equipment was backward, these Tubo people had hideous faces, and they shouted fiercely and scolded at the Tang army's wheel knife.
Although compared with the impression of the Tubo army, the army encountered was too thin and weak, but seeing the Tubo army with a big bow and arrows wearing leather jackets and carrying Tibetan knives rushing violently, Li Yexu still nodded with confidence, and immediately pulled out his horizontal sword, and commanded loudly to the generals and colonels in front of him.
"The whole army maintains formation and is ready to fight!"
Standing in the layers of protection of the Tubo people, with heavy Tibetan knives, the sissy cannon was also hissing and trying its best to boost morale and shout loudly: "Cheer up Lao Tzu, the Tang people on the opposite side are all fat sheep, hack them to death together, and don't want a share of the loot you grabbed, it's all yours!" After death, the soul will also be out of the sea of suffering, and it will be given to Master Ben! Defeat them, this master will take you to the capital to plunder, and the gold and silver mountains are all yours! ”
As soon as they heard that there were spoils of war, the Tubo people in the mother's city couldn't help but be even more eager to try, like a leopard ready to attack, staring fiercely at the prey in front of them.
Seeing that the two armies were about to hand over, Sheng Lianshan, who once again became full of fighting spirit, dragged his long knife again, and strode to the front of the whole army like an iron tower in full armor, and shouted with a hideous roar on his face: "Surrender, Fujian treats prisoners preferentially, those who surrender have white rice to eat, dare to resist the heavenly soldiers, Lao Tzu will cut them all!"
Originally, it was just the Tang army's habitual persuasion to surrender before the battle, but he didn't want a word to cause an uproar among the Tubo crowd.
"Really? Can the Tang people eat white rice after surrendering? ”
"The Tang people won't lie to us, will they?"
Just when the Tubo people themselves were talking, a childish and sharp voice sounded in the crowd again: "This is true, my brother Zanba was a soldier in Fujian, and in Fujian, slaves eat white rice!"
Seeing the Tubo people surrounding the surrounding Tubo people retreating timidly, the sissy suddenly became angry, and the bun's face was wrinkled with a thousand layers of skin, and he threatened with great anger: "You dare to betray this master? Think clearly, the gods will curse you, and your souls will go to hell when you die! ”
Listening to the threat of the sissy, the retreating Tubo people couldn't help but tremble again, but at this time, the immature voice that was against him sounded again.
"Don't believe him! The Buddha is the real god, the Buddha will save our souls, the place where the Buddha passed away is in the Nalanda Temple in the city of the King of Fujian! ”
This sound finally became the straw that broke the camel's back
