Chapter 10 Sweeping the Great Fei River
Xue Rengui's defeat of Dafeichuan is not only a great shame of the Tang Dynasty, but also a great shame of the Xue family.
"Xue Zhi listens to the order." Li Longji shouted loudly.
"The end will be." Xue Zhi took a step forward.
"General Zuo Xiaowei was defeated in Dafeichuan, and the Xue family boy was ashamed and humiliated, and vowed to wash it away with the blood of the Xue family boy, today, I will fulfill you. You led 10,000 elites as pioneers, opening roads in the mountains and building bridges in the water. Li Longji ordered loudly.
Poof.
Xue Zhi knelt in front of Li Longji, his forehead touched the ground, and he kowtowed heavily to Li Longji.
Excited, he thanked him loudly: "Thank you, Prince Longen!" Thank you, Prince Longen! ”
Li Longji's move is to give Xue Zhi a chance to wash away his shame. Xue Rengui's defeat of Dafeichuan is a shame for the Tang Dynasty and a shame for the Xue family.
What could be better than that?
Li Longji's move is a grace for Xue Zhi to recreate, and it will not be possible if he is not excited.
"Prince Xie!"
Not only did Xue Zhi kneel down for Li Longji, but even all the generals knelt down in unison and thanked him loudly.
Xue Rengui is a rare good general, he joined the army when Tang Taizong conquered Goryeo, showed his majesty, and his prestige was great, and he made the people of Goryeo tremble. He was not only a man of great military prowes, but also a man of great military talent.
Therefore, Tang Taizong admired him very much, and once praised him in front of Xue Rengui: Now the generals who fight the world with me are old, or they will not be able to gallop on the battlefield in a few years. This expedition to Goryeo, I don't like Goryeo. Rather, there are generals. There is a successor.
From these words, it can be seen how high Taizong's evaluation of Xue Rengui is. I have high hopes for Xue Rengui.
In fact, Xue Rengui did not disappoint Tang Taizong, he fought in the east and west, was invincible, conquered everything, made great achievements, and was the god of war in the minds of the Tang army.
As for the defeat in the Battle of Dafeichuan, it was not Xue Rengui's mistake. It was Guo Beifeng who violated the general's order, so that the grain and grass were burned by Tibet.
The importance of grain and grass does not need to be said, the destruction of grain and grass was a devastating blow to the Tang army, the army was unstable and demoralized, and Tubo Da Lun led an army of 400,000 to attack Xue Rengui, preparing to annihilate Xue Rengui.
However, to the surprise of the big talk, Xue Rengui responded calmly. Without the slightest panic, he showed his outstanding military talent. Under the command of Xue Rengui, the Tang army fought a series of victories, and the blood of Tubo was like a river, and the corpses were piled up like a mountain.
Seeing that the goal of completely annihilating Xue Rengui could not be achieved, Da Tan had no choice but to negotiate peace with Xue Rengui and end the war on the condition that Xue Rengui lead the army to leave.
Under the premise that the general situation is irreversible, Xue Rengui can only accept this condition and bring back nearly half of the Tang army.
If it were a different person, it would probably be completely annihilated, and there would be no return.
Xue Rengui can do this, no matter how much praise is overstated.
When the Tang Dynasty investigated the responsibility for this battle, it was because Guo Beifeng's Laozi was a famous general of the Tang Dynasty, and he favored Guo Beifeng, and Guo Beifeng was not executed, but only cut his post to serve the people.
And Xue Rengui, who brought back nearly half of the Tang army under impossible circumstances, was also demoted to a commoner, which was extremely unfair to Xue Rengui.
For Xue Rengui's unfair treatment, the soldiers have been complaining about him.
Now, Li Longji wants to hand over the opportunity to Xue Zhi to let the Xue family wash away the shame, and the soldiers recognize it from the bottom of their hearts, and they have to be convinced by Li Longji, so they kneel down and thank each other.
"Get up." Li Longji helped Xue Zhi with both hands and asked the soldiers to get up.
"Prince Xie." The soldiers thanked each other in unison.
"General Zuo Xiaowei's defeat is not his fault, but it is Guo Beifeng's fault. And the imperial court removed General Zuo Xiaowei from his post and took away the title, which was extremely unfair. Li Longji patted Xue Zhi's hand on the back and said, "Today, the Tang Dynasty marches into Dafeichuan, you lead the army as the vanguard, and kill as much as you want!" Use the blood and bones of the Tubo people to comfort the spirit of General Zuo Xiaowei in the sky! ”
"Woo!" There is a way that men don't flick when they have tears, however, when Li Longji said this, he was so excited that he finally shed tears.
The Tang Dynasty was unfair to Xue Rengui, this is the consensus, however, as the crown prince, it is the first time to say it in front of so many people, this is to return Xue Huigui's justice, as Xue Rengui's grandson, Xue Zhi can't help but be excited.
"Hmm." Xue Zhi nodded heavily, led 10,000 elites, and took the lead.
"Brothers: Twenty years ago, my grandfather, General Zuo Xiaowei, was defeated in Dafeichuan, which was a great shame for my Xue family's boys, and my Xue family's boys swore that they must be washed away with the blood of my Xue family's boys! Today, when the opportunity comes, I will lead you to Dafeichuan to wash away this shame, are you willing to join me? Xue Zhi came to the soldiers and spoke loudly.
"Yes! Willing! ”
Although Xue Rengui has been dead for many years, however, as a god-of-war commander, his prestige is still there, and the soldiers are still convinced of him, and being able to wash away his shame is exactly what they think in their hearts, all of them are shouting loudly.
For a while, the sound vibrated in the sky, and the ground was trembling.
"Out." Xue Zhifei got on the horse, patted the horse's back, and took the lead.
The soldiers followed closely behind, like a long dragon, rolling towards Dafeichuan.
"The general has three arrows to set the Tianshan Mountain, and the strong man drives into the Han Pass!" I don't know which soldier was so excited that he sang Xue Rengui's legendary song.
"The general has three arrows to set the Tianshan Mountain, and the strong man drives into the Han Pass!" As soon as someone sang, the soldiers immediately harmonized, and for a while, the singing was majestic and heroic, straight through the nine skies.
In that year, Xue Rengui was ordered to march westward, and three arrows in the Tianshan Mountains scared the courage of the barbarians, and the barbarians had to surrender. The soldiers sang this song to glory, and now, they once again sang the legendary song of Xue Rengui.
Although Xue Rengui is no longer there, however, his majesty is still there!
After Xue Zhi left, the Tang army, under the command of Li Longji, drove out one after another and headed straight for Dafeichuan.
If you look at it from the air, you can see a long dragon on the road from the Hexi Corridor to the Dafei River. It's rolling forward. Straight to Dafeichuan.
It's not too far from Shibao City to Dafeichuan. The next day arrived.
At the pass into the Great Fei River, there is a castle that is used to guard this road.
The city was small and had a garrison of nearly 2,000 troops.
"Prepare to attack." Xue Rengui took a look at the city and prepared to storm it.
At this moment, something happened that Xue Rengui couldn't imagine.
"That's Tang Jun? Impossible, right? How did the Tang Army come here? ”
"Mingguang armor, horizontal sword, if this is not the Tang Army, who is the Tang Army?"
"You're stupid. Equipment can be captured. This must be the warriors of the Great Tubo who defeated the Tang army, captured the equipment of the Tang army, and wore it on their bodies to shine. ”
"It makes sense. A lot of bright light armor! Wow, I'm dazzled, it's too much. ”
"Mingguang armor, that's a good thing, it's the best armor. Let's go, let's go ask for something. ”
"That's right! Ask for some bright light armor to wear through. Even if we can't ask for it, it's good for us to see and understand. ”
Mingguang armor is the most famous armor in ancient China, known for its excellent protective power. In the eyes of the Tibetan people, it is a rare treasure. If only you could get the Bright Light Armor. That's the smoke coming from the ancestral grave.
Even if you can't get the Mingguang Armor, it's a good experience to see it up close.
When the Tibetan soldiers left the city, they came in groups of swarms, all with smiles on their faces, smiling, as if they had seen their ancestors.
"Brother, do you sell this Mingguang armor? How many cows, sheep and horses do you want, you say. ”
"If you don't want oxen, sheep and horses, you can ask for gold and silver."
"If you don't even want gold and silver, that woman with fine skin and tender flesh, you either? Do you want it, no problem, how much? ”
These Tibetan soldiers shouted as they came, all looking forward to it. Look at their expectant looks, as if they had seen their ancestors.
"We are the Tang Army." When the soldiers of the Tang Army saw it, they only felt that the world was too crazy, so crazy that the Tubo people couldn't even tell the difference between friend and foe.
"Haha! Brother, you're really good at laughing. How could Tang Jun come here? There is a stone castle city in Great Tibet, and it is impossible for the Tang army to come here. ”
"Stone Castle City, that is the strongest city in the world, unless the Tang army has wings and can fly, fly here."
"As long as Shibao City is here, no matter how many Tang troops there are, it will be useless. It's funny what you guys are laughing at, I want to laugh. ”
When the Tibetan soldiers heard this, they all shook their heads, looking like they didn't believe that they had beaten me to death.
How dangerous Shibao City is, not to mention that at that time, even in later generations, it was also famous, and it was impossible for the Tubo soldiers to believe that the Tang army would come here. They would rather believe that the sun comes out of the west than that it is true.
"Ugh." The Tang soldiers grinded their teeth for a while, and they didn't know what to say.
Obviously telling the truth, it is clear that the Tang army is already close at hand, but the Tubo soldiers don't believe it, this is too ridiculous for the Tang army, and they have never encountered such a thing.
"That's a good thing." Xue Zhi had an idea, a smile on his face, and said, "Brother, you want Mingguang Armor, right?" Well said, okay. Let's go into town, take a breath, and negotiate the price. ”
"Okay." The Tibetan soldiers applauded in unison.
"It's still this lord who is reasonable. Your Excellency, please. Immediately, there were Tubo soldiers who surrounded the generals, leading the horses and the stirrups of the stirrups, and surrounded Xue Zhi into the city.
In this way, many Tang soldiers were invited into the city by the Tubo soldiers as if they were welcoming their ancestors.
originally thought that it would take a bloody battle to enter the city, but he didn't expect that the Tubo soldiers would invite the Tang army so "enthusiastically" to enter, if it weren't for their personal experience, they wouldn't believe it was true if they killed the Tang army.
"I've seen someone send to death, but I've never seen someone send death like this!" The soldiers of the Tang Army disdained the Tubo soldiers in their hearts, but they had a smile on their faces, and they were vain and wronged with the Tubo soldiers.
"Kill!" As soon as he entered the city, Xue Zhi shouted, and the horizontal knife in his hand was a horizontal sword
"My lord, what are you ......" The Tibetan soldiers were stunned for a moment.
"Poof." Xue Zhi cut off his head with a knife, but he was in no mood to explain for him.
"Kill! Kill all the Tibetan dogs! The soldiers of the Tang Army burst out with a shocking roar, slashing and killing one by one, and striking fiercely.
Blood splattered, heads were thrown away, and after a while, the Tubo soldiers were killed and wounded.
"Is it really Tang Jun?"
At present, the Tubo soldiers had to believe that this was the real Tang Army, and they were all surprised.
What has eyes without beads, this is!
The Tang army clearly showed his identity, but the Tubo soldiers didn't believe it, and invited the Tang army into the city as if they were welcoming their ancestors, isn't this looking for death?
The battle was soon over.
The occupation of this city means that the Tang army has officially set foot on Dafeichuan.
"Brothers: It's Dafeichuan ahead, let's gallop to your heart's content!"
Xue Zhi roared, patted the horse's back, and rushed out first, the first to set foot on Dafeichuan. (To be continued......)
