"I didn't expect you to be able to convince Cai Bangsa." Before leaving, Lu Dongzan walked to Li Yuntong's horse, looked at the sky, and sighed lightly.

Although the sky was clear on this day, there were large clouds floating in the sky, and the sun was sometimes covered by thick clouds, and sometimes it came out to shine on the earth.

The sky is tinged with orange-red in the far reaches of the sky, and although it is not very obvious, you can still see the morning glow, which is not safe, and there may be rain and snow at any hour.

It's just that things are more complicated than he expected, and even if he goes under the knife, he has to go.

Li Yuntong also looked at the sky, frowning slightly, even after seeing the sky, her eyes did not turn to Lu Dongzan, but asked directly: "Great Minister, if the weather is bad, how much impact will these cavalry you bring have on them?" ”

Lu Dongzan turned around slowly, with a smile on his face that was not easy to be noticed, looked at Li Yuntong respectfully, and said in a harmonious voice: "Except for Zampu's guards, these cavalry are the elite of my Tubo, and the changes in the weather are almost unaffected for them, even in the worst weather, they are just as capable of fighting." ”

"Only this time, it's not just the weather that they're dealing with." Li Yuntong turned over and got on his horse, "There is another one, the men and horses in the hands of the prime minister have gone out, if something happens in the royal city, there is an enemy attack, but someone can deal with it?" ”

"Of course, the minister has always been cautious and cautious in his work, and will not leave loopholes." Lu Dongzan looked at Li Yuntong quietly, and did not return to his own horse.

Even if she is wearing men's clothes, she is also beautiful and incomprehensible, like clouds on the horizon, floating and swinging, beautiful and distant.

He lowered his eyes, looked at Li Yuntong's hand holding the reins of the horse, like white jade, and explained in a low voice: "But Zanmeng, you should pay attention to your own safety, the sword and gun have no eyes, although the minister will try his best to protect your safety, but he dare not say that he will be able to protect you, after you go, you have to put your own safety first." ”

Li Yuntong wanted to jokingly ask him: Shouldn't we put Zampu's safety first, even if I lose my life?

But her mouth only moved, and she did not utter this tentative word, and it was not interesting for a loyal minister to choose whether to be loyal to his king or his little affection.

She nodded and responded: "Don't worry, I can protect myself, you just do it as usual, don't think about me." ”

Lu Dongzan saluted and retired, turned over his horse, and ordered: "Go." ”

Along the way, they didn't talk again......

At this time, Cuona Lake was already a scene of killing and flesh flying, even if Qinling came with men and horses, there was not much improvement.

A steady stream of wild beasts, tigers, wolves, leopards, mastiffs...... Even the goats flocked to attack people regardless of life or death, and there were eagles and crows that flew down from time to time to peck people's eyes.

Earlier, when Baden Ram kept saying beast language to dissuade the commands, the animals slowly stopped, but then the man in the black cloak came out of the beast and chanted a spell on Baden Ram, and she fainted.

Before Songtsen Gampo's men could catch the beast repellent, the killing had already resumed, and he had to send his men again to deal with the situation first.

"Report!" Baji led the men from the bloody path of killing, and after saluting Songtsen Gampo, he led his men to chase the exorcist for a night, and chased him but lost his trace.

Baji's face was pale, and it was quite cold on the shore of Tsona Lake, but he was sweating profusely, and when he came back, he saw fierce beasts all over the mountains, and his hairs stood on end.

No one could figure out where so many beasts came from, and who drove them to launch such a ferocious and fierce attack.

Some military hearts have been shaken, and some people even say that Zan Pu married the princess of the Tang Dynasty and wanted to replace Bon with Buddhism, so God sent punishment.

Although the soldier who spread the rumor was killed, his words had some effect.

What Baji said had little practical content for Songtsen Gampo, and he watched his guards tear and kill the beasts layer by layer, and when the bows and arrows ran out, he changed his knives and guns, and when the knives and guns were blunt, he began to fight.

How can flesh and blood fight with those beasts that are red-eyed and have no regard for their lives?

He is a king of the snowy land, but he is surrounded by a group of wild beasts and cannot find an exit!

At this time, the only thing he was glad about was that he sent Li Yuntong and Chizun away early yesterday, so they didn't have to stay here and die together.

Li Yuntong and Lu Dongzan had already rushed to the Minfu camp with their people, which was less than ten miles away from Cuona Lake.

The shouts of killing could not be carried so far, unless there was a tailwind, and the smell of blood could not drift so far, and the Minfu camp was silent, and everything seemed to be peaceful.

In the sky, the sun once again drilled out thick clouds, shining warmly on the earth and shining on Li Yuntong's body.

Li Yuntong turned his face slightly, looked at Lu Dongzan's mountain-like figure under the sun, and saw dozens of goats running out of the Minfu camp through Lu Dongzan's eyes full of wisdom.

The dozens of goats seemed to be impatient, ignoring the fence around them, and jumped out like horses.

The weirdest thing is that they actually jumped out.

Although the guardrail is not high, this kind of jumping posture is really not what goats should have, although it is still quite far away, Li Yuntong still feels that there is something wrong with those goats.

After the goats jumped out of the guardrail, they walked slowly towards them, seemingly leisurely and at ease, as if they were unaware of their existence.

Li Yuntong narrowed his eyes slightly.

Just as she opened her mouth to remind "be careful", Lu Dongzan said: "Meet the enemy and kill those goats." ”

On the other side of Tsona Lake, Songtsen Gampo suddenly saw a fire in the direction of the Minfu camp, and the fire had spread towards them.

The fire was so big that they couldn't control it while dealing with the beasts.

At this time, the vegetation is dry, and although there is the humidity of the mountain snow, if the fire is allowed to burn like this, the thin snow will burn dry, and even these hands brought by Songtsen Gampo and Qinling will either die from the minions of wild beasts or be burned to death.

"Send some more people out and go back to find reinforcements." Looking at the defensive line, which was already a little weak and almost unsupportable, Songtsen Gampo said in a deep voice.

On the other side, looking at the burning fire and listening to the faintly audible sound of fighting not far away, Lu Dong praised: "Zanmeng is here to stay, the beasts are afraid of fire, and they should be able to disperse them, so the minister will take people to rescue Zanpu." ”

Earlier, his men and horses had killed the goats, but they found that the other goats in the camp were gone, and there were many people who had been disemboweled, and the wounds were obviously not caused by man. Apparently, there had been a terrible attack there, and it was either goats or wild dogs that attacked the people.

When he heard Li Yuntong say that a mastiff attacked her yesterday, Lu Dongzan concluded that those goats and mastiffs were also driven by people, and when they reached the vicinity of Cuona Lake, they were simply stunned by the scene of fierce battle between people and beasts.

If you rush down like that, it's just that more people are fighting with wild beasts and more people are dying in vain, so Lu Dong simply let people set fires, anyway, there are no other people here except the Minfu camp, it doesn't matter if you burn a mountain.

Of course, before setting the fire, he arranged for people to set aside a fire path and a safety circle in advance, including the Minfu camp, which was burned out of the safe area first, so that as long as he rushed through the fire path, he could pick up Songtsen Gampo and the men and horses he brought.

At this time, Baji had already led the people towards the place with the most wild beasts, and Songtsen Gampo remembered that Li Yuntong had said that she had encountered the fire in the territory of the Tang Dynasty, so he asked people to concoct it like a tide, and put a small fire along the surrounding area to burn the dry grass first, so that when the fire burned, there was nothing to burn, and it would naturally be extinguished.

However, in this way, he has to deal with the beasts and burn the seat belts, and he and the guards will fight here before the people who are looking for reinforcements come back.

Although the head of the fire did not move forward, but listening to the ups and downs of the fighting, he knew that the guards were about to be unable to resist, if it weren't for those beasts cowering at the firelight, they didn't continue to get closer, but he was afraid that the rout was just around the corner!

The battle was so hard, but it couldn't even be confirmed who the opponent was, whether it was Solange Deji or not.

After fifteen years of sitting on the throne of Zampu and fifteen years of conquest, Songtsen Gampo was not confident for the first time that he could win and go back alive.

He felt a little bitter in his mouth, and subconsciously licked his lips that were already a little chapped with his tongue, and a trace of desolation was uncontrollably born in his heart.

"Don't worry, you must catch the beast repellent, otherwise you will undoubtedly bring someone to save Zampu, and you will undoubtedly be a sheep in the mouth of the tiger and send them to death together." Li Yuntong rode on his horse and looked at the direction of Cuona Lake, although he couldn't see the appearance of that side clearly, but from the sound of tearing and killing and the roar of the beasts, he could hear something about it.

She said calmly, "If you can't find a beast repellent, the beasts will keep coming this way, and as long as your forces can't keep up, they will be eaten." ”

"I haven't seen Solange Deji have this ability before, but in this vast mountain field, where are you going to find him?"

Listening to Lu Dongzan's question, Li Yuntong frowned, "I'll try it with the Spirit Searching Talisman, but unfortunately, I don't have his objects here, I'm just afraid that it's a little inaccurate." ”

She took out yellow mounting paper, cinnabar, and a pen from her purse.

Lu Dongzan said in a deep voice: "As long as there is a general direction, even if it is three feet into the ground, the minister can find him." ”

Li Yuntong nodded, thinking of the eyebrows and eyes of Solang Deji in his dream, and quickly drew his portrait on the yellow mounted paper.

Lu Dongzan saw the person on the paper, although there were only a few strokes by Liao Liao, but he could see at a glance that it was Solang Deji, and couldn't help but be surprised, "This is the painting technique of the Tang Dynasty?" How has the minister never seen it before? ”

Remembering that the master had confessed to himself, this kind of drawing method called sketching must not be shown in front of others, Li Yuntong said vaguely: "It was taught to me by my master, specially used to draw spirit runes, and I don't need this at other times, except for the warlocks of my master's faction, no one will, and it's not surprising that Daxiang hasn't seen it......"
