"Huo Chang, look, there are a few more fans." At the gate of Songzhou, Xiao Lu, the soldier guarding the gate, whispered to the fire chief Qin Wu.

Qin Wu nodded, turned his head and asked, "What is the first batch today?" ”

"The fourth batch," Xiao Lu thought for a moment and said with certainty.

"It's not surprising, now the Tang Dynasty and Tubo are in harmony, the Tubo princess is married to our Tang Dynasty's Yangwei general, this matter has been announced to the world, everyone knows, just pick up people at the border of our Songzhou and Tubo, they are like the soil buns in the countryside, I guess they have never seen such a big battle, specially rushed over to see the lively, so it's okay, let them see the prosperity of my Tang Dynasty, let them see how high the sky is, how thick the ground is." Qin Wu's words were filled with incomparable pride.

Those Tubo people entered the city, all of them looked worshipful, Qin Wu invisibly had a sense of superiority, especially those who were dressed as soldiers, wearing leather armor, seeing that the soldiers guarding the city gate of Datang were also wearing bright light armor, looking at the armor like a pervert seeing a beautiful woman, Qin Wu almost didn't laugh.

Xiao Lu said a little worriedly: "Huo Chang, these days, there are hundreds of Tubo people pouring in, will it be fine?" ”

"What's the matter?" Qin Wu said disapprenorantly: "Xiao Lu, take it easy, now that the two countries are in harmony, there will be no more wars, otherwise they will not let the Tubo people enter the city, even if they enter the city, they are not allowed to carry weapons, what are they doing with their bare hands, I have more than 60,000 soldiers and civilians in Songzhou City, and one person can drown them with a mouthful of spit, what are you afraid of them doing?" ”

"Besides, the civil strife in Tibet, with countless casualties and great injuries, how dare you talk about war again? Xiao Lu, you are too careful. Do a good job, the envoys from both sides are coming, behave well, Lord Assassin Shi said, there are many rewards. ”

"Yes, Fire Chief."

Saying that, three more Tubo people came together, each with a few good horses in their hands, needless to say, most of them took this opportunity to sell the horses here. The opportunity is rare, as soon as they saw Qin Wu staring, those few smiled at Qin Wu flatteringly, and Qin Wu didn't think so.

The two countries are in harmony, turning hostility into friendship. The happiest people are the people on the border, so far. Then they need not be afraid. In the middle of the night, they couldn't sleep restlessly, and these Tibetan people, like a poor and crazy bandit who was crazy from hunger and didn't want to die, often secretly crossed the border to commit crimes, asking for everything, gold, silver, clothes, iron, food, and people. Even the salt has not fallen, and the ground is scraped off three feet, and the people who are protected by the walls of the big city are a little better, but the people in the suburbs have to be worried every day.

However, the merchants of Songzhou City were surprised to find a problem. It is said that the green buildings of Songzhou also benefit, the Tubo people do not hesitate to hug the left and right, and many merchants have earned a smile, and they want to be close to each other earlier, and the business will be much better.

Located on the border of the two countries, the impact is in the front, and the benefits are also in the front, once the two countries reconcile, the daily necessities such as salt, silk, cloth, pots and other daily necessities needed in Tibet are mostly purchased in nearby cities, even if it is a little more expensive, you can't buy an iron pot for boiling mutton and you have to go to Chang'an to buy it.

"Ahh

After a day's duty during the day, I could have gone home to hug my lady when the city gate was closed, but I didn't expect the baby son of the old Chen Tou's family to suddenly get typhoid fever, there was no way, Xiao Lu had to be on duty for him again, and now Xiao Lu wanted to take a nap.

"Brother Lu, come, let's nibble on a hu cake, it's just baked." A recruit named Chen Gui flatteringly handed half of the baked hot baked cake to Xiao Lu, which was regarded as filial piety.

Xiao Lu is also a veteran, he has also made military exploits, and he also has some fame in the army, he usually has no shelf, and he is helpful, very popular with the recruits, and he is not polite to see the new Chen Gui send Hu cakes, and he is not polite, so he took it and sent it inside, not bad, hot, fragrant and crispy, and it was baked well.

"Well, Xiao Chen, your cake is baked well." Xiao Lu couldn't help but praise.

"Hehe, Brother Lu likes it, the cake is a little dry, come, drink saliva and moisten it, it's only two o'clock now, and it's early before dawn." Chen Gui was very on the road and handed over the skin bag with water.

Xiao Lu took it and took a few big sips in one go, and suddenly felt more energetic.

"Hey, Brother Lu, you see, the west of the city seems to be on fire." Chen Gui suddenly pointed to a place in the west of the city and said in surprise.

Xiao Lu hurriedly looked at the place pointed out by Chen Gui when he heard this, and sure enough, there was a place in the west of the city that was on fire, and it was really a fire, look at that location, it should be the place where the brothels of Qinglou are concentrated, and he vaguely heard the sound of help, and couldn't help but gloat and said: "Those people are full of food, nine times out of ten, they accidentally knocked over the candle when they drank flower wine, and last time there was not a rich man in Baihuayuan who played with wax, but it turned out to be on fire, and his hair was burned, and now I feel funny when I think about it." ”

The same people are cold and hungry here, while those people eat and drink spicy food and spicy food, and are merry, and it is false to say that they are not jealous.

"Whew"

"Whew"

"Whew"

Three sharp voices suddenly sounded in the silent Songzhou City, breaking the tranquility of Songzhou City.

Chen Gui frowned and said, "It's so late, which child's child is so naughty, and he is still whistling, but this whistle is not small, and he is full of anger." ”

"Not a whistle!" Xiao Lu's face suddenly turned pale, and he said with a calm face: "This is an arrow, usually used to transmit signals, that is, to tie a special whistle to the arrow, and then shoot it with a strong bow, the arrow will produce a huge whistling sound in the process of flying, which can be transmitted for several miles, listen to this sound, this is shot outside the city, not good" Xiao Lu suddenly shouted: "Be careful and change." ”

As a veteran of the battlefield, Xiao Lu suddenly smelled a trace of dangerous face, and the hand holding the horizontal knife was a little trembling, but as soon as his words fell, he heard the chaotic sound of horses' hooves from far and near, and heard someone shouting something loudly in Tubo, and in a blink of an eye, he saw a group of Tubo people riding big horses and holding various weapons rushing desperately towards the city gate, the weapons were varied, some people held bows, some people held big iron rods, some people took axes, some people held kitchen knives, etc., although the weapons were average, but they were all fierce and vicious, The faces in the firelight were hideous and violent, like devils from hell, and the momentum was terrifying.

"Luluge, there are also outside the city." Chen Gui suddenly pointed outside the city and stammered.

What, also outside the city? Xiao Lu took a closer look, only to see countless torches suddenly rising outside the city, like a huge fire dragon, rushing towards Songzhou City.

It's not good, the Tibetan people are cheating!

"Enemy attack"

Just screamed, Xiao Lu suddenly felt a chill in his heart, looked down, and saw that he was hit by an arrow in the chest, his consciousness became more and more blurred, covering the wound with one hand, and slowly fell to the ground, just before Xiao Lu lost consciousness, he heard the recruit Chen Gui who he had been taking care of himself holding himself and calling his name constantly, and then heard the earth-shattering shouting of killing, and this Songzhou City, where Xiao Lu had lived for twenty-five years, was on fire, and the scene of the fire was soaring, which was the scene when Xiao Lu saw the most embarrassing scene in this world, because he was hit by a cold arrow, hit the nail on the head, and died on the spot.

When he died, his eyes widened, as if he was unwilling to die, as if he didn't understand why the two countries were kissing Tibet and suddenly turned his face, and he seemed to be unable to rest assured of his wife and weak children at home, as well as his elderly parents, but he couldn't do anything about it.

"The dog is deceitful, kill!"

"Brothers, hold on, don't let them succeed, guard the city gates."

"Arrows, arrows!"

The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who reacted were also red-eyed, raised their long lances, drew their horizontal knives, stretched their bows and arrows, and rushed up to fight with the Tubo people, and once the city gate was lost, the consequences were unimaginable.

"Kill"

"Kill them all"

The Tubo people obviously planned for a long time, the Tang army was caught off guard, let the Tubo people take the lead, the soldiers defending the city were rushed to the city gate by the Tubo people, the most tragic fight occurred at the city gate, for a time the corpses were all over the field, the blood flowed into a river, the severed limbs and legs were scattered, like a meat grinder, after a tragic battle, the Tubo people who were not afraid of death before the arrival of the Tang reinforcements, killed all the soldiers guarding the gate, desperately opened the gate, cut the drawbridge, and soon, the Tubo army ambushed outside the city rushed into the city of Songzhou (to be continued......
