Chapter 559: Hunting Deer

Just when Li Qinzai mobilized the border army, another military report came from the front, and the Tubo army and Tuyuhun engaged for the second time, and the Tuyuhun army was defeated in front of the battle, and the Tubo army advanced more than 100 miles to the east.

Tuyuhun was defeated like a mountain, and basically lost his resistance, and Tuyuhun Nuo Haobo Khan and his wife fled into the territory of the Tang Dynasty overnight with their henchmen, princes, ministers, and magnates.

Once he decided to give up, Nuo Hao Bo Khan really didn't care about anything, anyway, he could be crowned king when he entered the territory of the Tang Dynasty and continue to enjoy his glory and wealth, as for the life and death of the Tuyuhun army and the loss of the country, it was a foreign matter for him, and it had nothing to do with him.

The Khan didn't care about anything, but Li Qinzai couldn't.

Tuyuhun must be included in the territory of the Tang Dynasty, as an envoy of the Son of Heaven, how can the territory of the Tang Dynasty be touched by others?

Zheng Rentai rushed to Liangzhou City overnight, and he didn't have time to take off his helmet while wearing it, so he strode into the Assassin's Mansion.

Li Qinzai was rare and not lazy, and was waiting for cooking wine in the side hall.

Seeing Zheng Rentai coming in, the green plum wine in the kettle was warm, Li Qinzai scooped up a spoonful and poured it for Zheng Rentai, and held it to him with a smile.

"Grandpa Zheng came here on a starry night, and the sins of the younger generations are also. The wine is warm, please drink it to your heart's content, warm up. ”

Zheng Rentai snorted, sat cross-legged in front of Li Qinzai, drank the wine with a tilt of his neck, wiped a handful of hops on his beard, Zheng Rentai said dissatisfiedly: "Big face, your grandfather has never called the old man like this, boy, Tuyuhun is already in the midst of war, you are leisurely." ”

Li Qinzai sighed: "The younger generation is bitter in his heart......"

Zheng Rentai poured a glass of wine by himself, poured the steaming wine into his mouth, and sighed comfortably.

"What you did in Liangzhou, the old man has heard about it, the two countries' missions have been made a fuss by you, and you can force the Khan of Nuo Haobo to give up the sweat position, haha, the ability is not small, and the credit is not small, saving Datang a lot of trouble, boy, with this credit alone, I will wait for Your Majesty to reward you when you return to Chang'an."

Li Qinzai said with a smile: "The credit is all thanks to Grandpa Zheng, if there is no backing for your soldiers and horses in Liuzhou, how dare the kid take the tiger's whiskers of the two countries, and Grandpa Zheng should also receive this credit." ”

Zheng Rentai sneered: "The old man is over sixty years old, and he has never been touched by other people's light in terms of merit. ”

Li Qinzai hurriedly said: "The kid lost his words, the kid should not give up, and the credit is swallowed." ”

"After receiving your letter, the old man has mobilized 23,000 soldiers and horses in six states, and 3,000 are stationed in each state to stay, and only 5,00......0 can go out to help Tuyuhun," Zheng Rentai said with a solemn expression.

Li Qinzai's brows also twisted.

5,000 soldiers and horses, not equipped with three-eyed guns, went out to fight against the 80,000 army of Tubo, which is really not enough to see the military commission.

"Grandpa Zheng, if we only guard the border of Datang and do not enter Tuyuhun, will Datang be passive after Tubo completely occupies Tuyuhun?" Li Qinzai asked.

Zheng Rentai nodded: "Very passive, if Tubo is allowed to occupy Tuyuhun, it will not be easy for the Tang Dynasty to enter Tuyuhun, first of all, the Khan of Nuo Haobo has fled, and the hearts of the people of Tuyuhun have been lost. ”

"Secondly, militarily, if Tubo completely occupies Tuyuhun, relying on favorable terrain such as Jishi Mountain, Dafeichuan, and Qilian Mountain on the eastern front, and can obtain sufficient logistics supplies in the entire territory of Tuyuhun, whether it is to lengthen the battle line or fight alone, Datang will not have an advantage, and it will increase a lot of casualties."

"There is also a moral point of view, the reason why Tubo entered Kou Tuguhun is the grievances between the two countries, and now that the Khan of Nuo Hao Bo has fled, the Tang Dynasty lacks a reason to enter Tu Yu Hun, if it is under the banner of restoring the country for Nuo Hao Khan, it is difficult to make a good end afterwards, and it is impossible to really return Tuyu Hun to Nuo Hao Bo, right?"

"Therefore, Datang still needs a sufficient reason to enter Tuyuhun and fight with Tubo."

Li Qinzai sighed, he wanted to hook the corners of his mouth like those protagonists who pretended to be forced, and forced to say "Things are getting more and more interesting", and finally made a move and solved it with a whoosh.

But the reality is that things are getting more and more complicated.

The Three Kingdoms War, what's the fun? There are just endless reasons, details, and win-loss games.

Su Dingfang led the Wang Division to equip 10,000 three-eyed guns, Zheng Rentai and Li Qinzai both knew about it, but they didn't mention a word.

In terms of grand strategy, what is considered for the generals is the "potential," the strategy and the direction, and no matter how advanced the weapons are, their role is to accelerate the victory of the war, but they cannot completely determine the direction of the war.

Zheng Rentai drank another glass of wine and sighed: "Before the arrival of Su Dingfang's army, Tuyuhun can't be completely lost, otherwise it will be too late." ”

Li Qinzai also drank a glass of wine, and an unpredictable light flashed in his eyes.

…………

The Tibetan army is still attacking Tuyuhun.

As Zheng Rentai expected, after the Khan and his wife fled to the territory of the Tang Dynasty, the Tuyuhun army became more and more defeated, and in just two days, the Tubo army had advanced to the border of the Tang Dynasty, cutting the Tuyuhun army into two parts, north and south.

On the third day, three tribes of Tuyuhun declared their independence from the Tuyuhun Khanate, and their own affairs were still resisting the Tubo army.

On the fourth day, there were signs of small groups of Tibetan army activities outside the two cities of Songzhou and Minzhou in the Tang Dynasty, and they plundered the people in the villages outside the city and kidnapped more than 1,000 people.

The situation is getting more and more serious, and the Tubo army's troops have not only conquered Tuyuhun, but also aimed at the Tang Dynasty and continued to test on the border of the Tang Dynasty.

After receiving the military report of the assassination of the two cities of Songzhou and Minzhou, Li Qinzai immediately sent a sternly worded letter to Lu Dongzan in the name of the envoy of the Tang Dynasty, strictly advising the Tibetan army not to cross the border and provoke a war between the two countries.

Two days later, Li Qinzai received a reply from the Tibetan army.

The reply letter was written by Lu Dongzan himself, and there were few words in it, but it was full of murderous intent.

"The lost deer jumped on the Sichuan desert, invited the Tang envoy to Tuguhun, and hunted in Duomi. When there is no hero, the clumsy husband is alone, isn't it lonely. ”

The meaning is very clear, do you dare to come to Tuguhun in Tang Envoy? Let's talk.

Li Qinzai read Lu Dongzan's handwritten letter several times verbatim, and then put it away, revealing a look of struggle.

Liu Asi, Lao Wei and Sun Congdong stared at Li Qinzai's expressions on the side, and the eyelids of the three jumped.

"Fifth young man, don't be tricked by the old man!" Liu Asi persuaded.

Lao Wei also nodded: "Fifth Young Lang, Lu Dongzan is a killer against you, if you enter Tuguhun, you will fall into Lu Dongzan's position, and the enemy will be thousands of troops and horses, and it will be difficult to get out." ”

Li Qinzai said leisurely: "Of course I don't want to go, after killing the two groups of Tibetan envoys and pulling so much hatred, will I run to the Tibetan army to die again?" ”
