Chapter Seventy-Three: The Cause of War
There are many tribes in Nanzhao, and although the Mengshe Zhao unifies the six edicts, each tribe is essentially self-governing and has its own army.
Now that there is a shortage of troops, it is natural to draw them from the tribes near the border.
He Lingjiang was not surprised by this approach.
I just think of the fragrance of tea brewed by the old patriarch, the young man and woman who sang and danced, the woman who washed clothes by the water, and the earth dog who ran after the chicken......
For a while, I was a little confused.
When the war began, no one could stay out of it, and the people of the border suffered especially.
He Lingjiang glanced at the Aningbu village standing silently in the mountains, waved his horsewhip, and continued to run forward.
She can't bask in the sun, and she has to wear a fence and hold an umbrella, which is really too conspicuous.
Not to mention entering the Nanzhao army, even if it is far away, it can also be seen by the reconnaissance soldiers early.
Fortunately, they hurried all the way, and when they arrived at the place where the Nanzhao garrison was located, it was already twilight.
He Lingjiang, who received the umbrella, was like an ordinary Nanzhao maid who knew a little about martial arts, riding a horse and following the side of the Lord of Yinsheng County.
Seeing someone coming, the soldiers guarding the camp immediately stopped them: "Who is coming?" ”
The Lord of Yinsheng took out his waist card and lit up in front of him: "I am the Lord of Yinsheng, and I am here to help my father." ”
The soldiers guarding the camp glanced at each other, then stretched out their hands and said, "Please also give me the waist card first, and then return it to you after I go to verify with the Yinsheng City Lord." ”
The soldiers guarding the camp here are the soldiers of the royal court, and they are naturally not ignorant of the token of Yinsheng City.
But now is a critical juncture, and it is even more important to be cautious and beware of someone impersonating with a token.
He also had to hand the token to the people in the City Lord's Mansion of Yinsheng City to see, and then identify the people in person before he could rest assured that he could put them in.
Lord Yinsheng threw the token into his hand and commanded, "Hurry up! ”
The creep nodded, took the token, and trotted towards the place where the garrison of Silverborn City was.
After waiting for a long time, I saw the little soldier come with a man.
When the man saw that the person who came was indeed the Lord of Yinsheng, he couldn't help but wonder in his heart.
Didn't the county lord say that he wouldn't fight Yaozhou with the city lord this time?
For this reason, the lord of the castle was furious and smashed several treasures.
He was still muttering in his heart, when he went back this time, the position of this Yinsheng County Lord in the City Lord's Mansion would be difficult to protect.
Unexpectedly, she chased after her so quickly.
Did you figure this out?
The man suppressed his thoughts and saluted to the county lord of Yinsheng: "County lord." ”
The county lord of Yinsheng raised his hand slightly: "No need to be polite. Daddy is in the army now? ”
"Yes."
The city lord only brought his troops here at noon today, and he had just repaired it, and he would discuss it with the generals of the royal court and the second prince Luo Yan in the evening.
He turned sideways slightly: "County Lord, come in with your subordinates." ”
The lord of Yinsheng County bowed, and the soldiers guarding the camp also hurriedly moved out of the way, allowing her to enter first.
He Lingjiang and the others, leading the horses, hung their heads and followed behind the Lord of Yinsheng County.
The soldiers guarding the camp naturally regarded them as the servant maids of the Yinsheng County Lord, and let them in without further questioning.
This camp in Nanzhao is huge, and along the way, you can see the patrol team, patrolling back and forth around the camp and between the camps.
At a glance, it can be seen that the discipline in the army is clear, and there is no loose color.
The patrol team also has its own rules.
Such an army is not at all like a temporary one, and it is clearly prepared in advance.
When she followed the Yinsheng County Lord to the Yinsheng City Lord's tent, she watched the soldiers prepare for the battle in an orderly manner.
The suspicion in my heart was already somewhat certain.
The Lord of Yinsheng City set off from Yinsheng City with his troops the night before yesterday.
They straddled their horses and whipped, and they all rushed close to the distance of a day and night, and it only took a day and a half for the Silver Life City Lord to arrive.
Let's not mention the speed at which he gathered his troops at that time, let's just say that at the moment, these soldiers did not look like they were hastily pulled in and were unprepared for battle.
He Lingjiang's eyes narrowed slightly, if he said that this war was an unexpected move by the Great Zhou Dynasty that deceived people too much, causing Nanzhao to bear it and raise troops in anger, this is not like it.
By the time she was on her way, she had already figured out the cause and effect of the battle from the Lord of Silverborn.
A few days ago, it was the time when Nanzhao handed over the spring tribute to the Great Zhou.
Ge Luo, the great prince of Nanzhao, took his wife to the Yaozhou Governor's Mansion to pay homage and prepared to hand over the spring tribute to the Yaozhou Taishou.
Which Cheng thought that after the banquet, Yaozhou Taishou Zhang Qiantuo actually fell in love with his wife.
He secretly sent people to spread the word, but he also asked for more money and goods from Geluo for personal use.
Naturally, Ge Luo refused.
Zhang Qiantuo sent people to the post house where Ge Luo lived and insulted him.
Although Nanzhao is a subject country of the Great Zhou, in recent years, the national strength of Nanzhao has been thriving, where is it still the small country that only promises and prostrates at the foot of the Great Zhou?
How could Ge Luo also be the eldest prince of Nanzhao, and he was the most likely person to inherit the throne in the future, how could he endure such humiliation?
Ge Luo was furious, and immediately took his subordinates and forcibly broke into the Taishou Mansion, and was about to beat him up to relieve his anger.
At that time, Zhang Qiantuo was admiring the flowers in his homeland, and when he heard that his subordinates had reported that Ge Luo had brought someone to break in, he couldn't help but be shocked.
But after all, Ge Luo is the great prince of Nanzhao, and he is too guarded by the mansion, and he can't stop him with a dead hand, so he let Ge Luo break in.
Zhang Qiantuo stood up and was about to greet him, but Na Geluo was angry with his fist and knocked him down with a fist.
Zhang Qiantuo was furious, covered his bloody nose, and was about to scold, but Ge Luo's fist came immediately.
He just wanted to fight back, but his feet slipped, and he was caught off guard by Ge Luo.
Glor's punch was extremely heavy, knocking him out in one fell swoop.
When Zhang Qiantuo fell, the back of his head happened to hit a piece of gravel, and the whole person convulsed, just staring at him like this and losing his breath.
The eldest prince of Nanzhao killed Yaozhou Taishou with two punches, and this is okay!
The guards of the Taishou Mansion immediately rushed up with weapons, and they were about to take down Ge Luo and let him give an explanation.
Ge Luo never thought that he just wanted to beat Zhang Qiantuo for this stinky and shameless beating, and let out the evil anger in his heart, who would have expected that people would be so gone.
He also panicked for a while, and was about to rush out with people.
So, everyone suddenly became a mess, you beat me, I beat you, the fight was so lively.
Between the pushing and fighting, the anger in everyone's hearts became heavier and heavier, and I don't know which knife in his hand lost its strength and direction, and it was coincidentally inserted into Ge Luo's chest.
The people on both sides were stunned for a moment.
Even the guard of the Taishou Mansion who held a knife with blood in his hand also frightened his legs.
He wanted to detain the prince of Nanzhao, but he didn't really think that he would stab someone here.
