Three poles in the sun, shining on the dark and red earth, the shore of Erhai Lake, which was originally like a sea of flowers, is now a wolf.

Ye Chang's eyes were a little red, not because of casualties, he was still an old man, Hexi fought to Liaodong and then to Yunnan, and he was a little numb when he saw too much life and death. He didn't sleep all night, fought fiercely all night, and although he had always been in good health, he was already very tired at this time.

"Took the Black Dragon Bridge?" The messenger who could hear it delivered the news, and Ye Chang took a breath of cold air: "He chased far away...... How many people does he have in his hands now? ”

"But two hundred rides."

"Two hundred riders...... Trouble, Ye Ying"

Ye Ying came in response, his face was still excited, capturing the enemy's main general on the battlefield, this experience was rare, and after returning to Liaodong, some of them were boasted by him.

"You immediately order 3,000 people, rush to the Black Dragon Bridge, pick up Wang Yang'er, if Nanzhao counterattacks and captures the bridge, then give the bridge to them, as long as the return road on the bridge is cut off, and the defeated barbarians cannot return to the city."

Ye Ying had to be ordered to run, Ye Chang sat back on a stone, took a nap, and heard someone call him in his ear: "Ambassador, ambassador"

When I opened my eyes, it was Wang Tianyun.

Wang Tianyun's face was full of ecstasy, and when he saw Ye Chang open his eyes, he took two steps back, and then bowed deeply: "Congratulations to the ambassador, great victory, great victory."

Ye Chang himself blocked Nanzhao, and the matter of cleaning up the defeated army of the dog Rong in the fire field was handed over to Wang Tianyun, and when he heard him say that he had won a big victory, Ye Chang knew that the results of the battle would be brilliant, and his heart was also happy, but his face was light: "It's just a small plan...... What are the casualties of our troops? ”

"Our army has less than 1,000 casualties," Wang Tianyun said excitedly: "Now it is calculated that the corpses of the dog Rong have exceeded 6,000, and there are still some burned in one place in the fire, which is really impossible to calculate, and can only be estimated that the number of them exceeds 4,000, and the number of this beheading is more than 10,000, and the number of prisoners is also nearly 10,000, and the dog Rong 50,000 horses attacked, and only half of them escaped."

This is a rare victory, Wang Tianyun has never won such a victory, so he is extremely excited. Ye Chang heard this harvest, and he was still a little dissatisfied in his heart, if he didn't want to return to the army to block the reinforcements of Nanzhao, he was afraid that it would be difficult for the dog Rong to return.

"Hard work, this is Wang Yuhou and the soldiers who fought bravely to kill the enemy, so that there is this merit, I will definitely play the Son of Heaven, and I will not make the heroes unhonored"

"It's still the ambassador who is ......good at strategizing," Wang Tianyun said this, and couldn't help but say in his heart: "I have also followed many bosses in my humble position, and there has never been a boss who can be so happy as an ambassador, and there has never been a boss who can win the hearts of the army like an ambassador...... Fang Cai said that he wanted to come to repay the ambassador, and all his sons wanted to follow, just to see the ambassador."

Ye Chang's heart moved, and he got up and stood up: "If the soldiers want to see me, I can't help but ...... General Wang, it's hard for you to run with me again."

Because Wang Tianxing's side was an ambush and fire attack, his army did not suffer heavy casualties, but Ye Chang's battle to block Nanzhao was a big battle in the wilderness, and the number of casualties exceeded one thousand and five. Considering that Ye Chang only had 10,000 people in his hands, the casualty ratio of this thousand and five was already relatively large. Fortunately, wherever Ye Chang goes, he may bring less others, but the military doctor never brings less, so there are a large number of military doctors in the army, these people have practiced in Liaodong for several years, all of them are good at surgery, and they can even do some simple excision and suture surgery, so about half of the seriously injured who were originally bound to die can be rescued. Unfortunately, until now, there has been little progress in the study of blood types, otherwise more people could be saved by blood transfusions.

In this battle, the Tang army was 30,000 people, the dog Rong Nanzhao coalition army was 70,000, the dog Rong lost nearly half, and the 20,000 reinforcements of the Nanzhao army were almost exhausted, and the real escape back was less than 30,000, and the Tang army captured more than 10,000 prisoners alone. How to deal with these captives became a problem, and at this time the role of Chengjie and Wang Guitang came into play, and they recruited men from among the barbarian captives, and the two of them pulled up their own troops. Although these people are not immediately trustworthy, at least let them drive the canine captives to do the hard work, and it will be no problem.

Ye Chang was here to deal with the aftermath, the dragon tail was closed, Ge Luofeng looked desolate, looking at the Black Dragon Bridge close at hand, a group of Tang troops were showing off their might over there, he stroked it for a long time, and couldn't make a sound.

In the first battle of Kunchuan, he has lost more than 10,000 people, and in today's battle, he lost another 20,000 people, and now what is left in his hands is only more than 20,000 soldiers and horses, and these soldiers and horses are still frightened, and they have been killed by the Tang army to lose their souls.

At this time, he also got the news that Dog Rong also suffered a fiasco, and the loss was no less than him, which was the only thing that made him feel some comfort: it was not that he was incompetent, but that the Tang Army was too strong.

In just a few months, how did the Tang Army, which had been beaten by him so much that he couldn't find the north, become so powerful? Why didn't the Tang army, who had an epidemic as soon as he entered Yunnan, get sick? How could the Tang Army, which had low morale and corrupted military discipline before, be so combatively motivated and strictly disciplined?

A series of questions swirled around his mind, leaving him with tightness in his chest and shortness of breath, barely able to breathe.

This rebellion, in his opinion, is to seize a rare opportunity, Li Longji and Li Linfu, the two guys who really have some vision, are old, and the rest of the people are not incompetent and mediocre, but arrogant, seize this opportunity, as long as they can win one or two battles, then the whole of Yunnan will be owned by them. At that time, Li Longji and Li Linfu were almost dead, and he sent an envoy to Chang'an to sue for peace, and the new emperor would inevitably agree to his request for peace in order to whitewash the peace.

took advantage of it, and then turned into a submissive vassal state of the Tang Dynasty, receiving rewards and support from the Tang Dynasty every year, and after digesting it, the rebellion was repeated again......

But a Ye Chang was born, this person was originally in the northeast, how could he run to the southwest

"Your Majesty, do you want to ...... To take the Black Dragon Bridge? Zhao Quandeng next to him said in a low voice.

"No need...... No need to ......"

Ge Luofeng settled down, and now he can't fall down

There is no point in capturing the Black Dragon Bridge, it is obvious that the Tang army will not storm Longwei Pass, although the shipyard was burned, but the Tang army can completely rebuild it, just wait for the warship to be completed, they can cross the Erhai Sea by boat.

The west coast of Erhai Lake is 100 miles long from north to south, and any point can become a landing place for the Tang army, but Nanzhao has insufficient troops and cannot hold it at all.

After pondering and pondering, Ge Luofeng realized that his only choice now was to abandon Longwei Pass and return to Taihe City Cage City.

However, Taihe City was built by the rest of the Piluo Pavilion, and its defense has always relied on the north and south passes, and the defense of the city itself is not very strong, and the loss of the north and south passes, with only a lonely city, how can it be defended?

Ge Luofeng was hesitating, and suddenly saw a commotion from the Tang people on the other side of the Black Dragon Bridge, and then the cheers of the Tang army rang out.

"The reinforcements of the Tang army have arrived......," the subordinate said quietly.

Ge Luofeng looked around, and indeed, he saw the banner of the Tang Army in the distance. He pursed his lips, turned around and went down to the city, and his heart was really hard to decide.

Outside, the Tang army cheered from time to time, and inside Longwei Pass, there was a dead atmosphere.

In the afternoon, Ge Luofeng was sitting in his temporary hall in a daze, when he suddenly heard the Tang army outside the gate cheering again, and the sound was deafening, as if it was about to collapse the sky. He was shocked in his heart, he originally thought that the Tang army would not attack Longwei Pass, could it be that he was wrong again?

Thinking that the connection was at a loss in Ye Chang's hands, he couldn't sit still anymore, got up and shouted: "Go to the city, prepare to defend the city"

After going up to the city wall, I found that the Tang army was not going to attack, but another team of Tang troops had arrived here. Looking carefully at the banner of the Tang Army, Ge Luofeng took a breath: "Ye Chang is here"

Ye Chang's banner appeared under the Longwei Pass, and the Tang army was inspired by it, and it was really thunderous. Ge Luofeng stared at the big flag, and found that every time the big flag went, the Tang army in that place was excited, and the flag was waving non-stop

Obviously, Ye Chang's prestige in this Tang army has reached a peak

The money before the war, the successive victories in the course of the war, these made the Tang army ignore the fact that they also had casualties, almost every Tang army thought in their hearts, under the leadership of Ye Chang, to break through the Nanzhao Kingdom, and everyone fought to seal their wives and sons and then returned home.

"Who is Ye Chang and who is Ye Chang?" Ge Luofeng asked through gritted teeth.

Not long after, I saw several people coming out of the Tang army and approaching Guancheng. The people in the city suddenly became nervous, Ge Luofeng squinted, and saw that these people were all dressed as barbarians, and he knew that something was wrong, so he immediately ordered: "Shoot them"

At the head of the city there were their own archers who aimed at the bottom, but each of them held a shield and blocked the middleman, who hid behind the shield and began to speak loudly in barbarianism.

"On the orders of the Tang Emperor, remove the title of King of Yunnan and remove him from the post of Lord of the Southern Zhao...... Chengjie is the son of the former king of Yunnan, Pi Luoge, with a loyal temperament, generosity and benevolence, and should be established as the lord of Nanzhao and inherit the position of the king of Yunnan. Now Xu Chengjie has set up a royal court in Nanzhao's hometown, and the old ministers of Nanzhao have returned to ...... Those who follow it can not correct the past, and those who go against it will be killed."

but it is for the festival of sincerity

Chengjie is the son of Pi Luo Ge, when Ge Luofeng was hostage in Chang'an, he was quite favored by Pi Luo Ge, Ge Luo Feng only relied on the merits of the five edicts for Pi Luo Ge in the early years, and won the support of various ministries to inherit the throne. At this time, the Chengjie tree flag was surrendered, and the barbarian soldiers in the city suddenly became chaotic.

If there were no consecutive defeats, everyone would be loyal to Ge Luofeng, but now that they have been defeated one after another, most of Nanzhao's strength has been removed, but there is still no way to take the Tang army. In such a situation, everyone will consider looking for another future.

Ge Luofeng's face was gloomy, and he looked at his side, and most of the soldiers around him avoided his gaze.

Although he was angry in his heart, he didn't show it after all, but fortunately, the generals around him now were not only the members of the original Mengxi Edict, but also the rest of the five edicts and other barbarian leaders. These people have no affection for Chengjie, and Chengjie has no prestige among them.

At this moment, the messenger said: "The will of the Tang Emperor, because Ge Luofeng acted perversely and brutalized all the tribes, and the remnants of the tribes were quite obedient, and even went to the palace to cry and beg, so the hometown of the five edicts was restored, and the people of the five edicts were restored, and those who could make great contributions in the conquest of Ge Luofeng could be knighted, and those who captured the donors of Ge Luofeng were the edict masters."

Hearing this order, Ge Luofeng's soul suddenly scattered, and he could no longer maintain his composure, and screamed: "Shoot him, shoot him"

The soldiers around him shot arrows randomly, but the shield wall of five or six people on the other side was very well defended, and they were not close to the city, so they could not find the angle of the shot, so they could only hear the barbarian read it three times in a row, and then everyone retreated safely.

Ge Luofeng looked at Ye Chang's banner in the distance in horror, and knew in his heart that all this must be Ye Chang's plan again.

This is a conspiracy, as soon as this order is announced, Ge Luofeng is in Longwei Pass, and there are not many people who can be trusted.

He looked to the south, and then was startled by a whisper, and when he turned around, he saw a pair of puzzled and frightened eyes. Ge Luofeng looked at which person, and felt that which person might sacrifice him to the Tang army, he suddenly pulled out his knife and cut down a white barbarian leader beside him: "You traitor, you intend to rebel"

Before the white barbarian leader could react, he was cut to the ground, and then Ge Luofeng chopped off his first performance with another knife, and then kicked the first achievement in front of everyone. The crowd retreated, looking at him in horror.

"This thief listened to the bewitchment of the Tang people, and wanted to rebel, and he has been killed by me" Ge Luofeng said sharply: "Come on, pass my order, and kill all of this thief, not one of them"

This bloody and cruel method finally calmed everyone down, but Ge Luofeng understood that this was only temporary, and it was to quench their thirst. But just now he really couldn't control himself, and he even felt that if he didn't do this, the subordinates around him were only afraid that they would immediately tie himself up and sacrifice to the Tang people.

"Rather than make them surrender, I'll ......"

A thought secretly arose in his heart, Ge Luofeng ordered his cronies to keep the moment, and he went down again. Since Ye Chang has started to attack the heart, it means that he will not attack immediately, and the safety of this Longwei Pass does not have to worry about it for the time being

He secretly summoned his younger brother Gebei, ordered him to take a boat alone, and quietly went to the Tang Army. Ge Bi got his orders and went according to his words, and then Ge Luofeng was restless in his temporary palace. For a while, he was worried that the Tang army would attack the city immediately, and his subordinates would have no fighting spirit and might not be able to hold Longwei Pass; After a while, I felt as if I was surrounded by people, and those various departments outside could defect at any time.

When it was night, he heard the news that the secret envoy he had sent finally returned. He was suddenly overjoyed in his heart, summoned the pavilion inside, and after meeting, he asked, "What, Ye Changke has seen you?" ”

Ge Bi's expression was no longer calm, he could use the set of pretending to be a ghost to scare Luo Zan, but when he used this set in front of Ye Chang, it was a small witch and a big witch. Hearing his brother's question, he said frustratedly: "I saw it, but Ye Chang didn't allow it to surrender."

"What, why don't you allow it to surrender, I promised to send my son to guard Chang'an, why is he not allowed to surrender?" Ge Luofeng shouted half desperately, half frantically.

He said...... He said that the era of making a big fuss, slaughtering the Han people, and then defrauding the Han emperor of the benefits is gone forever" Ge Pi also said in despair: "Brother Wang, it's over, we're all done."
