Wu Chu looked around, his face was solemn, and the military talisman and the holy decree were placed on the desk, this was a procedure that had to be followed, because with these, Wu Chu could justifiably command and control the Longyou army.

The generals stood still, bowed their heads and bowed, waiting for Wu Chu to send them.

Wu Chu said: "Raise your heads, don't use the Confucian set in front of this king, I want you to hold your heads high and be an aggressive soldier in the Great Zhou." ”

Suddenly, the generals raised their heads, and sure enough, the head of the case stood up, and Wu Chu showed a satisfied look, and then said: "This king has thought twice, instead of passive defense, it is better to take the initiative to defend." There are two places for defense, which are also decided by this king after thinking twice, one is Qijiaji, and the other is at the mouth of the three rivers. ”

The generals were suddenly shocked, because this was linked to merit, and the King of Wei didn't give them a chance, and they were also Mei Nai, so they needed to show their faces.

Wu Shu paused, he already had a case in his heart, so he looked at Gao Sheji, this person with extremely good archery skills, of course, now Gao Sheji has officially become the general of the Great Zhou, one of the generals of the new army.

"High House Chicken!"

"The last general!" A black-faced and red-faced and burly general stood out from the ranks, it was the high-ranking chicken, after years of training, he was completely able to take charge on his own.

Wu Chu said slowly: "This king handed over the scout team to you, and gave me the medicine for diarrhea to hide in the wells and hay of the Qi family first, and I have asked Yao Yuanchong to prepare the medicine, you can find him directly, and after you get the medicine, you will set off immediately." If you can't delay the crossing of the Tibetan army. This king is the only one you ask! ”

"The last general commands!" Gao Sheji bowed down to receive the order, and then slowly retreated.

Next, it is necessary to defend the mouth of the three rivers. The affairs on the east bank of the Tao River, the deployment of the east bank was personally in charge of Wu Zheng, and this time he brought two thousand bed crossbows and one hundred medium-sized catapults, enough for the Qin Ling to drink a pot.

So Wu Zhai ordered Xue Ne to arrange the city defense, and he led the generals out of the northern city and led an army of 10,000 towards the mouth of the three rivers.

Because Sanhekou is located in the alluvial zone of the Taohe River Valley, the terrain is flat. There are three large villages where the people live here, but due to the attack of Tibet, under the call of Yao Yuanchong, the assassin of history. They took refuge in the city, but some of the old people who were dying chose to stay, because they knew that they might not be able to go far and die. It's better to die at home. As the saying goes, "the golden nest and the silver nest are not as good as their own kennels".

In order to avoid forced labor, some villagers took their families and children to hide in the mountains, which are so wooded that they would not be found at all if they did not send a large army to search them. They believed that the Tibetan soldiers did not have so much time to waste, and it was impossible for them to waste their troops for the sake of their small people.

Three Estuary, as the name suggests. It is formed by the convergence of Qijia River, Tao River and Xima River, and is bounded by the mouth of the three rivers. The amount of water in the lower reaches is larger, and the upper reaches of the Tao River are almost along the bottom of the cliff except for the east bank, so there is no intersection. This is also Wu Zhai's firm conclusion that when Qinling comes to attack Linzhou, he will definitely cross the Tao River from the mouth of the three rivers, and here, it is also possible to deploy cavalry on the east bank.

Relatively speaking, it is also very beneficial to the play of Wu Zheng's bed crossbow arrow array. I'm afraid that even the Qinling Tomb didn't think of this. After all, the mutual market between Tibet and the Great Zhou Dynasty followed; The tension in relations between the two countries has long been closed. However, the merchants who went to Tubo in Longyou were rarely cut off, and the goods transported by one were urgently needed by Tubo, and the other were also the eyes of Tubo to understand the Great Zhou.

But what the Qinling didn't know was that Wu Zong also used the smuggling merchants to obtain important information about Tubo, while what the Qinling got was just the hearsay of those merchants, such as the dispute between the Wu clan and the Li clan over the establishment of the prince, and the chaos of the entire imperial court.

It was precisely because he learned that the Wu clan was competing for the crown prince, and that the Zampu crossbow was pressing step by step, that the Qinling took the risk of fighting with the Great Zhou to establish the prestige of the Geer family in Tibet. Tubo is not like the Great Zhou, it is composed of hundreds of large and small tribes, and if you want to command the large and small tribes, you can not just do the Zampu to give orders, but you must have the "alliance right" recognized by the tribes.

A few years ago, half of the power of the alliance was taken away by the Zampu crossbow, and now he only barely gathered 300,000 troops in Qinling, in fact, the real soldiers are only 200,000, and the remaining 100,000 are just herdsmen of their respective tribes, although they are equipped with weapons, they only have the share of escape on the battlefield.

On Qinling riding on a bantam horse, he was in a heavy mood, the cyan bantam under him was his favorite, although he had received a tribute from the Great Eater Horse when he was in the Western Regions, but the Great Eater Horse was tall and not cold-tolerant, and died after returning to Lhasa. The cyan Tubo horse is not common, so the Qinling is very true love, so it was named "Zhuoma".

The territory of the Great Zhou is too vast, although Tubo once owned Anxi, and even now occupies the hometown of Tuyuhun, but it still cannot be compared with the Great Zhou. But in any case, the Central Plains Dynasty at this time was the weakest time in his life. Of course, the King of Wei of the Great Zhou cannot be underestimated, but it is said that the Emperor of the Great Zhou is too old, and the Wu clan's competition for the crown prince has entered the substantive stage, does he have time to go out of the capital? What's more, after this alliance, in order to achieve the purpose of the surprise attack, the marching speed was very fast, and not even a single beacon fire was lit along the road. The place he passed was almost in ruins, so fast, how did Da Zhou react?

Just after the Qinling Tomb rode the cyan "Zhuoma" into the Qijiaji, a personal guard came to inquire, "General, this is the Qijiaji, there are nearly three hundred miles to Lintao City, and the ice of the Taohe River has melted, please decide!" ”

After hearing this, Non Qinling pondered for a moment and said: "In this case, it is almost dark, let the soldiers rest, order people to cut down trees overnight, and go to the mouth of the three rivers early tomorrow morning!" ”

"Yes, General!" The guards retreated.

At this time, after Gao Sheji led the two hundred scouts to scatter the last bag of croton into the haystack, he ordered people to take advantage of the night to withdraw from the Qijiaji and retreat to the Guozi Mountain, which was also the place they chose to settle when they arrived at the Qijiaji.

When night fell, the people in the houses of Qijiaji were driven out, and the Tubo soldiers had no military discipline at all. The lustful Tubo soldiers got into the adobe house with women, but they spoiled the women of the Han family, but fortunately, most of the Qi family gathered most of them hid in the mountains. There wasn't much left, but it was all lost.

At this moment, on Qinling did not feel sleepy at all, he sent someone to take care of his "Zhuoma", and then in the hands of his eldest son Gongren, he took a golden roasted leg of mutton, he took off his waist knife and cut a piece of meat on the golden leg of mutton, and then put it in his mouth and chewed it. When you get older, your teeth don't work well.

At this time, he remembered the corn and rice given to him by the King of Wei of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but unfortunately these two things were rarely seen in the markets of Tubo with the closure of the mutual market. Even a nobleman like him eats once in a while. After all, there is not much food in Da Zhou. And there are constant famines.

However, if you can lay down Longyou, you can at least eat wheat noodles, which is very good for the old people in Tubo who have bad teeth. But it is very difficult to lay down the entire Longyou. And Tubo is not good at guarding. Without the cultural influence of the Great Zhou, it is difficult to become a climate. If you can conquer the Western Regions, the Nine Kingdoms of Zhaowu, and then go south to cross the Xindu River, you can conquer the entire Tianzhu, and then Tubo will be enough to compete with the Great Zhou.

But. For today's Lun Qinling and his Ge'er family, these things should no longer be thought about. Zampu was short-sighted, and he was already old, so he could only take this idea to the sacred mountain.

Looking at the eldest son Gongren, he felt gratified, although his talent was not as good as himself, but he had the quality of a Han filial son, loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness, he was a rare warrior, on Qinling stood up, dropped the golden leg of mutton, and then put the waist knife in his waist, out of the military tent, and saw that the yellow sheep was still roasted on the bonfire, and the Han woman who was being ravaged, there was no trace of waves on his face.

"Daddy, it's cold, go back to the account." Gong Ren respectfully said that he was a forty-year-old man, already a father of five children in the family, and he loved his wife, so he never looked for a "wild woman".

On Qinling looked up at the sky and said: "The Han people believe that there is a providence in the underworld, my Tubo is located in the high cold, the soil is poor, the country is based on agriculture and animal husbandry, and the culture and education are far inferior to the Han people in the Central Plains. But now I, Tubo Zampu, regard my Geer family as a thorn in the side, if this is defeated, my Geer family may establish prestige and prestige, if defeated, my Geer family will come to an end. Although you are the eldest son in the clan, my Tubo is different from the Han people, your uncle Zanpo's ability is ten times stronger than yours, and he will take over the position of patriarch, do you understand? ”

Listening to his father's last words, the middle-aged man with a black and red face showed sadness, but still bowed down and said, "What the father said, the child remembers in mind." ”

At this time, the Qin Ling ordered: "Pass the order, let go of those Han women, cut the wood, and rest the rest." ”

Gong Ren bowed down and took the order.

When two hours passed, many Tibetan soldiers began to have diarrhea, and the horses also began to have diarrhea in large quantities.

In the early morning, after the Qinling was released, he smelled a stench that rushed to the sky, and when he looked closely, he saw that the streets and alleys of Qijiaji were all full of, and some tents were full of, and the soldiers in the tent did not move at all.

At this time, the horseman who was in charge of taking care of his "Zhuoma" came, crying and saying, "General, your mount can't get up. ”

On Qinling was furious, kicked the horseman away, and then went straight to the stable, but saw that the good horses in the whole stable, fell to the ground, and swooped. When his Dolma saw him, he screamed and tried to struggle to get up, but he was powerless.

On Qinling yelled, "What about the scouts? What about my scouts? Call me Lange! ”

The guards hurried out, and after a short time they hurried and said, "Lange did not return last night and all night. Then he said slowly: "I heard that someone saw him carrying a Han woman into the haystack, but our people searched for it, but no one was there." ”

On Qinling sighed and said: "This is all a good thing you have done, the Qi family is a big village, and it was harmed by you, and the villagers naturally retaliated, go and count, how many people can't get up?" ”

The guards immediately retreated, and on Qinling fell into deep thought, and a bad feeling suddenly rose in his heart, which made him very uncomfortable, but he really couldn't think that now that he had attacked Linzhou, it was foolproof. (To be continued......)
