Chapter 6 The sun rises in the east, and the Tang Kingdom does not fall
In the history of the Tang Dynasty and Tibet, the war between the two countries lasted for decades, the two sides came and went, calculated step by step, and did not give in, in the past few decades, although there was a short period of peace between the two countries, there were still many large-scale frictions and conflicts.
In these decades of war, although the Tang Dynasty had a slight upper hand, but could not defeat the Tibetans, the military power of the Tibetans was still very strong, the Tang and the Tibetans fell into a protracted tug-of-war, this was a war of attrition, although Emperor Xuanzong had a strong national strength and the ambition to open up the territory, but the political situation in the Tibetans was stable, and occupied the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack, so the Tang Dynasty has not had a good way to deal with this enemy like maggots.
However, after Xu Yang intervened in history, every qiē was like the first finger of a domino, overthrowing the forces that made up the plateau ethnic group, and in the face of the powerful Central Plains army, in the face of the religious invasion of the Central Plains, the Tubo Empire collapsed without the slightest resistance.
In just five months, compared with the history of more than 50 years of war, it is not even one percent, which makes people sigh that the strength of the Tang people can be called a miracle, but for this qiē, the people of the Tang State are not the slightest surprised, after the changes in the past ten years, they have firmly believed that the army of the Tang Dynasty can achieve victory without much effort in the face of foreign enemies.
The army of the Tang Dynasty occupied Lhasa, and the golden dragon flag of the Tang Dynasty was planted on the huge Potala Palace, and the battle had a tremendous impact on the situation in the entire Central Asia.
But now that the Tang Dynasty has destroyed Tubo with the power of thunder, there are only two of the three kingdoms of Datang, Dashi and Tubo. The countries of Central Asia had to rely on their own strength and position. to estimate which side of Datang and Dashi will fall in the end.
Look at the influence of these two vast empires in Central Asia. Needless to say, the power of the Tang Dynasty is that a force called the Chengguan Garrison, with only 7,000 people, has now become a terrifying name in Central Asia.
Lisang, Zhuoma, and Tsuda were among the best cities in Tibet, and in front of this army they were like tissue paper, spitting flame-spitting weapons, and it only took a few sounds to blast the city all day long. These things are known as "Karma Heaven" in Central Asia, which means "devil".
Although the Tang Dynasty is very powerful, the influence of the Great Food in Central Asia is still stronger than that of the Tang Dynasty, the Great Food Country, a territory where the empire expands in Central Asia all the time, west of the Western Regions, it is often heard that there are powerful city-states annexed by the Great Food, so the dominance of the Great Food in Central Asia is still not to be underestimated......
It is a desolate Gobi desert with vultures hovering in the sky. The endless Gobi looks bleak and bleak, while on the Gobi Desert. At this time, there were hundreds of corpses lying on the ground, all of them were wearing armor, it seemed that they had just experienced a life-and-death battle, and there would be blood stains under these corpses, and it could be seen that these people had not been dead for long.
"Lord Caliph, the nobles who fled from the city-state of the rupee have now all been captured, and the lord of their city-state is among them, does the Caliph want to see him?" A soldier on a brown horse, dressed in a white robe and wearing a silver helmet, walked up and said to a middle-aged man with blue eyes and blond hair.
"Well, the warriors of Allah, he has done a good job, the city-states of the rupee have always been important enemies of our empire's expansion to the north, and now that their city-lords have been captured, the iron hooves of our Arab empire can once again advance to the north." The blue-eyed middle-aged man's eyes were full of bloodthirsty excitement, "Bring their Chengbang Lord, and I will personally end his sinful life." ”
"Allah Allah!" The soldier saluted on his horse, rode his horse towards a group of sergeants not far away, and soon he turned back, but behind him dozens of grief-stricken prisoners were already escorted.
Although these people were very dirty, looking down from the dust attached to their clothes, they could vaguely see that the materials of the clothes were very delicate, and the patterns on the clothes were also extremely exquisite.
The prisoner who was escorted was led by a large man with a beard on his face, who stood out from the crowd because he wore a golden crown on his head, although the crown was not large, but his previous status could still be seen.
"Rupee City Lord, we meet again." Seeing the big man who was escorted in front of him, the blue-eyed and blonde middle-aged man was riding on a horse, holding his head high, and his tone was full of banter and disdain.
The bearded man with the crown on his head looked sad and didn't say a word.
"I heard that you want to take you, the royal family members of Ruby City, to flee to the country called "Datang" in the east? ”
When the bearded man heard this, he raised his head sharply and said angrily: "If you don't stop the pace of criminal conquest, one day, the powerful Tang people will come to the land of Europe and judge you!" ”
"Hahaha." The blue-eyed blonde youth seemed to have heard an extremely ridiculous joke, and said in an arrogant tone: "Tang people? Is that the country that wiped out the waste of Tibet? Hehe, sooner or later, I will also submit it to the feet of our Arab Empire, and let them know who has the ability to lift the heads of the proud! ”……
Chang'an, East Palace.
An ordinary courtyard house that looks the slightest strange from the outside, but the gate of the courtyard has seven gilded characters written on the gate of the courtyard, which makes it look full of mystery.
Pushing open the gate of the courtyard, the scenery is dazzling, which is full of all kinds of novelties, which can be described as a unique cave.
A huge wooden table, covered with hills, plains, Gobi, deserts, and all kinds of small flags, among which there are many people in gray uniforms coming and going, they are either holding thick papers, or carrying various documents, and some carrying various official newspapers.
"General Li, there is a new trend in the Great Food Country, two months ago, there were spies to report, the Great Food Country carried out a large-scale attack to the north, breaking through the ruby city-state that has always been known for its defense, the city lord of the Ruby city-state Sivier led hundreds of royal families to abandon the city and flee, looking at the path of their escape, it seems that they also wanted to figure out the Guò Silk Road and came to my Tang Dynasty to seek refuge." A young man with a stack of papers in his hand respectfully handed the materials in his hand to a middle-aged man.
This middle-aged man has the signature beard of a Tang Dynasty military general on his chin, and his eyes are very bright, which one is not Qin Qiong.
"Well, now the speed at which this Great Food has annexed the surrounding small countries is too fast, and our army in Tubo is already very close to them, if they occupy another five hundred miles to the northeast and cross the snow-capped mountains, we in the Tang Dynasty will probably have their first encounter." Qin Qiong looked out the window and said with blazing eyes.
"General Qin, do you want to report this news to His Majesty?"
"Of course, sooner or later, my Datang will send troops to eat, the so-called 'know yourself and know your opponent, and win all battles.'" This is the purpose of the establishment of this 'Military Aircraft Department', and it is also extremely necessary to let His Majesty understand the movements of the Great Food Country. ”……
"How is it, how do you feel about working at the newspaper on your first day today?" At Xujiazhuang's lunch, Xu Yang picked up a piece of braised pork, put it in the Xingtang bowl, and said to Xiao Di and Xiao Wu casually.
"The newspaper is very interesting, today I am responsible for collecting some news materials, and screening the better news articles, and typesetting them into the newspaper, Mr. Ma Zhou also takes care of me and Wu'er." Di Renjie also replied excitedly, and it could be seen that he should feel good about his first day of work at the newspaper.
"Hmm." Xu Yang also smiled with satisfaction, and turned his head to Wu Zhao again, "What about Xiao Wu?" How did you feel on your first day at the newspaper? ”
Hearing the master ask himself, Xiao Wu seemed to be more excited than Xiao Di, and said loudly: "Back to the master's words, I feel that it is really interesting in the newspaper, and Mr. Ma Zhou also listened to me and Xiao Di's advice, and changed the headline on the front page of this issue of the newspaper. ”
"Oh? What did it change? Xu Yang was also very curious.
"The sun rises in the east, and the Tang Kingdom does not fall!" (To be continued......)
