If Li Qinzai's attack tactics disrupted Lu Dongzan's strategy against Tuyuhun, then Lu Dongzan's new 30,000 soldiers and horses also changed Li Qinzai's strategic deployment.

Gifts are still exchanged, no delay and no arrears.

According to Li Qinzai's original idea, he planned to cooperate with Pei Xingjian's Anxi army to flank the Tubo army from east to west, drive them to the south of Tuyuhun, and then join forces with Su Dingfang's troops to completely annihilate or expel the Tubo army in Tuyuhun.

The most feared thing on the battlefield is variables, and any small variable will completely change the outcome of victory or defeat.

Lu Dongzan's new 30,000 soldiers and horses became a variable in this war.

They rushed from Tubo proper, and after entering Tuyuhun, they were not led by the nose by Li Qinzai's harassment tactics, but went straight to Shanzhou in the Tang Dynasty.

I have to say that Lu Dongzan does have some ability, and since he has seen through Li Qinzai's attack tactics, he will not fall for him again.

In the step of attacking Shanzhou, Lu Dongzan walked very well, a typical "encirclement of Wei to save Zhao".

Facts have proved that there are still special groups such as cultural monkeys in the foreign monkeys, and the doctrine and art of war of the sages of the Central Plains have been played by him quite slippery.

Now Li Qinzai has not many options in front of him, either ignore the actions of the Tubo army to attack Shanzhou, continue to adopt attack tactics, and nail Lu Dongzan's main force near Qinghai Lake.

Either give up the tactics of raiding and harassing, lead the army back to Shanzhou, first hold the city of the Tang Dynasty, and then try to Tuguhun.

Datang's strategy is to swallow Tuyuhun, but the tactics in front of him have to save Shanzhou, the conflict between strategy and tactics, a very strange war pattern.

When Li Qinzai heard the news that Tubo wanted to attack Shanzhou, he was so angry that he jumped on the spot and scolded Lu Dongzan for half an hour.

I really can't be personable and not surprised, Li Qinzai is not born to be a Confucian general.

When the spring breeze is proud, he is scolding, and when he is in an impasse, everyone in his temperament is like this.

"Damn, don't talk about martial arts!" Li Qinzai scolded and sat in the handsome tent, foaming at the mouth and his expression was not good: "Sixty or seventy-year-old old man, he is so unparticular about doing things, why am I fighting with you, but you don't say a word about stealing my tower ......"

Sun Congdong, Song Jintu and the others sat in confusion, not understanding what "jungle" was and what "stealing towers" was, but it was certain that Li Xianbo was angry at the moment, he was in a hurry, he was in a hurry.

"Do we have any powerful Taoist priests in Datang? Hurry up and go to Chang'an to send a message, let the Taoist priest set up an altar, cast spells, recite spells, draw talismans or something, and quickly let God accept Lu Dongzan......"

Sun Congdong said: "There is ......"

"What's there?"

"There are Taoist priests, powerful Taoist priests."

"Who?"

Sun Congdong grinned: "Li Chunfeng, Taishi Ling, Taishi Ling, Zhenguan and Yuan Tiangang co-authored "Tui Bei Tu", Xian Qingnian and Liang Shu, a doctor of Guozi Supervisor, co-authored "Ten Sutras", for the use of Guozi Supervisor's textbooks......"

"The last general heard it when he was in Chang'an, Li Daochang admired Li County's arithmetic very much, and wanted to sit with Li County's uncle many times to discuss the Taoist, speaking of the Taoist priest of the Tang Dynasty, this is the most powerful."

Li Chunfeng is like thunder.

Not only the most famous Taoist priest in the Tang Dynasty, even in China's thousands of years of history, is also the most famous Taoist priest, "Tui Bei Tu" counts the rise and fall of thousands of years, adding milk, salt and vinegar are all suitable......

Li Qinzai sighed: "I suddenly remembered that I was actually just a math teacher, why did I go to the battlefield and become a coach?" The style of painting is a little off......"

Sun Congdong hesitated and said, "Uncle Li, what should I do now?" Can you save Shanzhou? ”

In the six states in the northwest, each state has soldiers and horses defending the city, but the troops are not many, each city is maintained at about two or three thousand men and horses, and it is difficult to allocate reinforcements, because the distance between the six states is not close, and no one can predict whether the enemy will suddenly change the goal and attack another city next.

Therefore, the soldiers and horses of each city must not move in vain.

In the northwest of the Tang Dynasty today, the only army that can move is Li Qinzai.

30,000 Tubo troops, attacking Shanzhou, where the defenders have two or three thousand, can they hold it?

"Uncle Li Xian, the last general thinks that there is no need to pay attention to Shanzhou City, we continue to attack and harass Lu Dongzan near Qinghai Lake, there are defenders in Shanzhou City, and nothing else dares to guarantee it, it is not a big problem to defend it for ten days and a half." Sun Congdong.

Li Qinzai had a calm face and did not squeak.

Maybe it can be held, and it may not affect Li Qinzai's plan to contain the main force of the Tubo army, but everything is afraid of what happens.

What if you don't hold it? What if the wall of Shanzhou was broken on the first day of the siege by the Tubo army that found a loophole in the city wall?

Who can guarantee that this "just in case" will not happen?

If it happens, who will make up for the lives of 20,000 or 30,000 people in the city?

Li Qinzai really didn't want to change the northwest peace of the Tang Dynasty for the next hundred years for the sake of a Shanzhou city.

However, Li Qinzai could not ignore the butcher's knife that the 20,000 or 30,000 people in Shanzhou City were about to face.

Heaven and man are at war, struggling and hesitating.

After a long time, Li Qinzai gritted his teeth: "The harm of the two phases, take the lesser of the two." ”

"Uncle Li means ......"

Li Qinzai sighed and said: "I am not a military strategist, strategist, or military strategist, I just believe that my heart is fleshy, with joy, anger, greed, hatred, and compassion. ”

"Lu Dongzan, this battle can't clean him up, after Su Dingfang's army arrives, he can clean him up again, he is in Tuguhun and can't run. But the twenty or thirty thousand people in Shanzhou City, if they don't save it this time, there will be no next time......"

Sun Congdong understood: "Uncle Li wants to give up the tactics of attack and harassment and return to the division to save Shanzhou?" ”

Li Qinzai was silent for a long time, and said softly: "Remember, when we left the city, many people chose to stay in the city because they believed in my Tang Dynasty Prince, if we didn't save it, wouldn't we live up to their trust?" ”

"Here in Qinghai Lake, even if we achieve fruitful results, what face will we have to meet the elders of Shanzhou when we return to the division?"

"It is shameful to use the trust and life of our fathers as a bargaining chip for our own victory!"

Li Qinzai's gaze became more and more firm: "Okay, I have made up my mind, save Shanzhou!" ”

Sun Congdong hugged his fists and said: "The last general is willing to obey the orders of General Li County!" ”

The taciturn Song Jintu also stood up, hugged his fists and said: "Although Li Xianbo's choice is unwise, the last general is very fortunate to be able to fight side by side with Li Xianbo, and he is truly invincible in the world." ”

Li Qinzai smiled bitterly and said: "Don't put a high hat on me, if you go to Shanzhou, maybe you will fall into the trap of Lu Dongzan, and the 30,000 Tubo army will not attack Shanzhou for no reason, Lu Dongzan doesn't know what conspiracy is waiting for us." ”

Sun Congdong smiled heroically: "It's okay, it's just a matter of sacrificing your life for righteousness, and you won't regret dying!" ”

Li Qinzai rubbed his forehead tiredly and sighed: "I'm just a rural teacher, what kind of life can I do." ”

"Order, the whole army will march to Shanzhou!"
