379 Political compromise

On the gate of Songzhou, Cheng Yanjin watched the last group of Tubo soldiers set up camp and retreated silently, they did not speak, and the Tang soldiers in Songzhou Mansion did not take the opportunity to cover up, but let them leave.

"This is the last batch, isn't it?" Cheng Yanjin suddenly asked the partial general next to him.

"General Hui, this is the last batch, the Tubo soldiers in Minzhou, Yazhou and other places have also been withdrawn, and the high-level Tubo leaders such as Songtsan Gampo and Non Qinling have all been withdrawn a few days ago, and when these people are withdrawn, there will be no more Tubo soldiers in the Tang Dynasty." The general on the side said excitedly.

Cheng Biting Jinhu's eyes widened, and he said with a solemn face: "Otherwise, they saw the opportunity early and made a decision immediately, and I am the son of heaven in the Tang Dynasty and kind-hearted, otherwise, they don't know how many people are left to go back, although there have been no major wars in my Datang in recent years, and the soldiers are a little greedy for comfort, but their blood is still there, it is really hateful, let them capture Yazhou Mansion, it is simply a shame for us and other soldiers, the emperor is estimated to be furious this time." ”

"General Cheng, I heard that after the Songtsan Gampo invaded the city of Yazhou, not only did he not take anything, but he did not commit any offense, less than a day after the capture, the Tubo people withdrew from the city, and the Qinling was even more starry and galloped to Chang'an to ask for guilt, not only promised to withdraw unconditionally, but also gave up the military action against Longyou and Tuyuhun, and paid tribute to the dynasty every year, and Tubo Zampu gave courtiers to the Tang Dynasty Emperor, so is Tubo really so much civil strife?"

"Isn't it amazing?" Cheng Yanjin gloated and said: "According to the intelligence, the Tubo general Shangxiang was poisoned, and the suppressed old nobles rose up one after another, and the Gongbu, Qiang, and Yang were the same as the power of the Xiqiang tribes to take advantage of the fire to rob, and the entire Tubo has become a pot of porridge. But that's fine, let them fight each other, it's best to exhaust the internal friction, so that my Datang can rest easy. ”

The monarchs and ministers of the Tang Dynasty are now gloating to see the civil strife in Tubo, and most hope that they will be sluggish and no longer pose a threat to the Tang Dynasty. Instead of accepting those who don't know how much sincerity they come to the court and pay tribute, this is like a tiger, even if it is injured, it is still a tiger, as long as it can't be killed at once. By the time it licks its wounds, the threat may be even greater.

Maybe it's gone. Stronger later. It's even more terrifying.

If Songtsen Gampo takes the opportunity to remove the tumor of Tubo this time and has no worries, then Tubo under his leadership will definitely be stronger, but unfortunately, these Li Er and his courtiers did not expect it. One by one, they were immersed in the joy of conquering the four clans and coming to the dynasty from all directions.

The partial general said flatteringly: "In order to reconcile with the Tang Dynasty, the Tubo people are really tolerant, saying that the Tang Dynasty sent troops to Mobei to suppress the bandits for him." Unconditionally let them leave Tubo and let them return to the Tang Dynasty, general, this is good, with this experience, Young Master Huailiang was promoted to become rich, it is just around the corner, and the last general will congratulate him first. ”

It's okay not to say it, as soon as Cheng Biting Jin said angrily: "Congratulations on a fart, that Qin Ling said, that kid became a prisoner, grandma's, no one else has anything to do, just he was caught, the old face of the old Cheng family made him lose his face, and when he came back, see that I didn't skin him, hum." ”

The general didn't know what to say all of a sudden, he only knew the general result of this agreement, like a detailed one, and didn't know it, and now when he heard that Cheng Huailiang was captured, he didn't know it, and he slapped the horse's legs on the horse's legs, which was simply boring, so he hurriedly found an excuse and left.

Waiting for the general to retreat, Cheng Yanjin said in a voice that only he could hear: "It's okay like this, save your life, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood, the emperor has promised before, looking at the old faces of Princess Qinghe and me, I will not be overly embarrassed Huailiang, this can be regarded as the blessing of the ancestors of the Cheng family." ”

At this time, in the study of Zhao Guogong's mansion, the atmosphere was extremely solidified:

Uncle Monkey, the personal guard of Changsun Chong, knelt on the ground, while Changsun Wuji sat on the ground with a pale face, unable to speak for a long time.

I didn't expect that the feeling that day turned out to be true, I felt that my son had no intention of officialdom, and he had his own reputation in front of him, and in the mouth of outsiders, he had become a tiger father and a dog, in order to let his son be a man, he was specially sent to brush up on military merits, but he didn't expect the white-headed man to send the black-headed man, how could this not make the eldest grandson Wuji heartbroken.

"Let you assist Chong'er, why did you obviously receive the order of Hou Junji to engage in expediency, why didn't you retreat? I asked people to answer in Longyou early in the morning, for what? The eldest grandson Wuji suddenly shouted loudly.

Uncle Monkey knelt on the ground, his nose touched the ground, and he said with sincere fear: "If you go back to the master, you will also persuade the young master to accept it early in the morning, but he said that he has not made great achievements, and he cannot be inferior to Liu Xiaojiang and Cheng Xiaojiang, and he can't break the ambition of the eldest grandson's family, and he will not retreat from anything, and he will continue to fight with the armor given by Liu Xiaojiang, and he will not retreat on the battlefield. ”

"What? Liu Yuan sent armor to Chong'er? You say be careful."

"Yes, after the two of them partnered to capture the forging workshop in Tubo, the young master accepted more than 500 recruits as he wished, and then rejected Liu Xiaojun's suggestion to join forces, insisting on leading the troops alone, the young master was proud of the Tang Dynasty, looked down on the Tibetan slaves, and was unwilling to use the armor and weapons of the Tubo people.

"I don't kill Boren, Boren will die by me, perhaps, Liu Yuan will not kill his son, but my son will die because of him." After being silent for a long time, the eldest grandson Wuji sighed.

Five thousand people went deep into the hinterland, which is already very few people, and it is divided into four, as far as Uncle Monkey's depiction is concerned, this is a correct choice, whether Hou Junji chooses to ambush more reinforcements or order expediency, the fighter and the timing are just right, this is Hou Junji's control of the war, and it is also a perfect judgment made by the actual situation, fully showing his ability, and now he can only blame it, it is his son's youthful spirit.

Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, as long as you save your life and return to Chang'an, it is a great achievement, you are Zhao Guogong, and the emperor's relatives, the eldest grandson queen is the aunt of the eldest grandson Chong, Li Er is the uncle, the starting point is much higher than others, and it is just gilded, why bother to compare with others, and it is a good thing to have principles, but I don't know how to be flexible, I will abide by the rules, and I can't do big things in the end, my son will recruit new soldiers, this is a change, it is a good beginning, and then fight for a period of time, I can definitely be reborn and change my thinking, But before he became shrewd, he had already taken his own life to the country.

Especially for Liu Yuan's armor, it can be said that the biggest failure, knowing that it is the territory of Tubo, the army has also gone to reinforce, wearing that armor, it has simply become a target, and has become the primary target of the Tubo army's attack, which may have secretly attracted the attention of others for Liu Yuan, and became a shield for others, Liu Yuan can take the opportunity to escape, but he may not be the target of the public.

Alas, it's all fate.

What kind of favor, don't trouble him, it is estimated that he will have to snicker.

"Master, this is the letter that the young master asked me to hand over to you when he was dying, and this arrow, my subordinates implore me to return to Tibet, kill the owner of this arrow, and avenge the young master." Uncle Monkey presented the letter written by Changsun Chong before his death and the sharp arrow that shot Changsun Chong to death.

There is no problem with the letter, it is the unique binding method of the eldest grandson family as a mark, the eldest grandson Wuji looked at the arrow, it was this arrow, it took the life of Ai'er, the eldest grandson Wuji took the arrow, and he couldn't help but eat it, and looked carefully at the end, only to see that there were two Tibetan characters on it, which should be the owner of the arrow.

"It's Zanpo" Uncle Monkey whispered: "When the subordinates came back, they had already asked someone to make it clear, it should be the general named Hanako Zanpo who killed the young master with a cold arrow." ”

"Zanpo?" The eldest grandson Wuji broke the sharp arrow at once, threw it on the ground, and said with a fierce face: "If you don't kill this person, my eldest grandson Wuji swears not to be a human being, waiting like the wind." ”

Uncle Monkey knelt down all of a sudden, and said respectfully, "The little one is here." ”

"Your family is small, I will take care of it, you go now, no matter what method you use, I will use the head of this Zanpo to sacrifice my son's spirit in heaven."

"Thank you, master, my subordinates will leave immediately."

Uncle Monkey's task of delivering the letter was completed, and when he heard the order of the eldest grandson Wuji, without saying a word, he immediately retreated out of the city, ready to avenge the eldest grandson Chong

In the territory of Tubo, the peaks and smoke are everywhere again, the old and the new forces do not give in to each other, and Yangtong and the western Qiang also take advantage of the fire to rob, want to take the opportunity to take back their own land occupied by Tubo, the whole Tubo has been in chaos, Songtsan Gampo led its elite, rushed back, the messenger who sent the letter, desperately whipped the horses, running on the land of Tubo.

Liu Yuan didn't know about this, but he still took Zanmeng Saimaga and rode a horse together, all the way to the north, marching in the direction of Longyou, for him, there was nothing more important than going home.

"Princess, are you thirsty, do you want to drink some water?" Liu Yuan suddenly leaned down and asked gently.

Zanmeng Saimaga tilted her head and ignored Liu Yuan at all, but in her eyes, there was a trace of hesitation and despair: a few days ago, she wanted to provoke Liu Yuan and let him kill herself, but she didn't expect to be raped by Liu Yuan, not only that, but in the remaining few days, Liu Yuan's knowledge of the essence of food possessed her a few more times, which made her a little disheartened, if it weren't for the fact that the Xue'er she raised by Zhilu Dao was not roasted, it was still in Liu Yuan's hands, and she would have found a way to commit suicide early in the morning.

Thinking of this, Zanmeng Saimaga regretted it so much that her intestines were repentant, if she knew that Liu Yuan didn't kill the sea holly she raised, even if she killed her, she wouldn't have deliberately provoked Liu Yuan, if she hadn't deliberately provoked her, she wouldn't have ended up like this, seeing that they were about to escape from the Tubo border, getting closer and closer to the Tang Dynasty, Zanmeng Saimaga was anxious: Why hasn't his own person appeared yet?

"General, through that canyon, we'll go into the desert, and we'll be safe." Zhao Fu pointed to the mountain range in front of him and said excitedly. (To be continued......)
