The news of the destruction of the grain and grass in Aba was transmitted back to Burgai, and Lu Dongzan was not angry when he heard the news, because he had known that the black army was coming, but he didn't know where they were.

"I can't imagine that they are so quick and accurate, these people can't be underestimated."

Although Lu Dongzan has fought with the Black Army in large-scale battles, and has also fought with the Black Army mercenaries in Tuyuhun, it can be said that he is an old opponent of the Black Army, as Li Yong said, he is a decisive and intelligent person, the grain and grass have been cut off, he already knows that things are indispensable, Lu Dongzan is ready to retreat, if it is a fool like Fu Yun, he will definitely fight with Li Yong regardless of his own danger, this is the gap, compared to Lu Dongzan, he is like a chess player, and Fu Yun is a gambler, The crazy gambler who gambled everything with himself and his own country as a bet, and as a result, he lost all his head and was taken down by Li Yong.

"Father, it seems that these people are not going to give up."

"That's right, we killed their people, revenge is certain, just want to deal with me Lu Dongzan, they still look down on me,"

Lu Dongzan said softly to his favorite son on Qinling, Lu Dongzan knew very well that after he cooperated with those people, it was inevitable to encounter this situation, but he didn't expect it to happen so quickly, which made him know another characteristic of the black army, then revenge will be avenged, it will not be delayed, even if there will be any obstacles, it cannot be stopped, he can also see that the black army is not an army controlled by the Tang Dynasty, because such an elite army does not have the will of the Tang Emperor, how can it be so casual in and out of Tuyuhun, After destroying the other party and then killing into his own territory, he understands the mechanism of the Han court very well, that is, if the generals want to go out to fight, they must get the consent of the emperor and everyone in the court, otherwise they will not be able to lead a soldier out, and they don't want them to Tubo or other grassland tribal kingdoms, and the military power is in the hands of nobles and tribal leaders, that is, when they want to fight, it is enough to get the support of these nobles and leaders, it is just a matter of how many troops, in the face of huge interests, These nobles and chieftains would be willing to stop supplying troops and supplies, because in order to get more benefits from the war, their armies were actually their slaves, and they would die and plunder.

"Father, what shall we do now?"

"The army retreated, this time we came out to receive the goods well, not only annexed most of the land and population of Tuyuhun, but also got those artifacts, we have already explained to those noble leaders, now we only need to create and imitate these artifacts, in the future we can have a fight with the Tang Dynasty, or with these black armies."

"But ......"

"Child, do you want to say that you are unwilling? You remember, the Han people have a word called a leaf blind, we can't be blinded by the things in front of us, the black army has not launched an attack on us, because they can't be afraid of us, if I guess correctly, that is, their soldiers can't adapt to the environment here, and their generals are afraid of me, we have got so many things, enough to make the situation in the country better, Fu Yun is a good example, although it is a pity that we failed to take back Songzhou, but for the sake of the overall situation, Temporary forbearance is not a loss. ”

On Qinling seemed to understand Lu Dongzan's words, no one knew the conversation between the father and son in the camp tent, and the ghost special combat team that completed the task did not continue to destroy Lu Dongzan's grain route, but closely monitored the movement of Lu Dongzan's army, Pei Xingjian The order they received was to monitor Lu Dongzan's army after completing the destruction of Aba grain depot, Li Yong looked at the intelligence reported by the ghost special team and saw that Lu Dongzan must be ready to retreat, and all he can do now is to watch him retreat from his eyes with an army of 150,000, It's not that he doesn't want to deal with Lu Dongzan, but there is no need to take this risk, Lu Dongzan's Tubo people are like grass mustard, and his black army is a treasure selected by thousands of people, and the loss of one is unbearable, and the purpose of his coming is to force back Lu Dongzan's attempt on Songzhou, now it seems that his goal has been achieved, and now he is waiting, waiting for Lu Dongzan to start withdrawing the army, although the two of them are hundreds of miles away, but what they think in their hearts is the same. In Chang'an, Li Er and his ministers also received an urgent report of 800 miles from Songzhou, which frightened Li Er and the ministers of the court, because their military gods were fighting in Tuyuhun with a large army, and now Lu Dongzan was marching towards Songzhou with an army of 150,000, Li Er had no choice but to let Niu Jinda lead 30,000 troops to support Songzhou, and when Niu Jinda reached Songzhou, Lu Dongzan did not move for a long time, and Li Jing had completed the task of destroying Tuyuhun, At this time, he also hurriedly sent Hou Junji and other generals to lead an army of 50,000 to Songzhou.

"How's the army preparing?"

Lu Dongzan was wearing armor and asked his son about Qinling.

"The mood of the army is stable now, there is no problem in retreating, but the food and grass are already insufficient, even if we retreat, our army may not be able to hold out on the way back to Luo."

On Qinling told his father about the situation of the army, Lu Dongzan didn't look worried at all, just stroked the beard on his chin, but his eyes looked at the direction of the mountain to the west, he knew that that there was the location of the black army, Lu Dongzan and Li Yong were like two clever chess players, they both knew their strengths and knew their weaknesses, so they were afraid of each other, although Lu Dongzan did not have such a powerful intelligence network as Li Yong, but his outstanding military talent and vision, analyzed the location of Li Yong's army from various signs, This is the gap between Li Yong and Lu Dongzan, and it is also why Li Yong is commanded by generals like Xue Rengui in many military commands, because he knows that his command and combat ability is definitely not as good as that of them, so he delegates power and lets people who know how to go, and then he will do big strategic control later, because those strategies and tactics in later generations are much more advanced than them, and they have a powerful intelligence system, and he is easy to make accurate judgments. When Lu Dongzan looked in the direction of the Black Army of the Fallen Mountain, Li Yong also looked in the direction of Burgai.

"Old fox, you're going to run away, aren't you?"

"Commander, the troops are ready."

"Then arrange it, send it to our old friend, I believe that in less than two years, we will meet him again, when the time comes, it will not be for him to come and go freely, this hatred, just write it down for him, and then take it back with interest."

After Li Yong finished speaking, he would not walk directly towards his Xiaobai, Xue Rengui also glanced at the direction of Bourgai, with coldness in his eyes, but Xue Rengui didn't say anything and turned around and rode his war horse, and then caught up with Li Yong's Xiaobai, at this time, the atmosphere of Xiao killing in the black army camp was solemn, and the assembled black army was neatly arranged like tofu blocks, and the order they received was to rush to the battle site, and then, there was no then, there was no battle plan and plan, just rushed over, many soldiers did not understand, But those middle and senior officers understand, and even those low-level officers also understand, because the environment here is not suitable for them to fight, these days many soldiers have been sent back to the low-lying Tuyuhun country by the logistics support force because of altitude sickness, and now it should be said that in the Tang Dynasty, because Tuyuhun has been wiped out, Tuyuhun is only a part of the territory of the Tang Dynasty, like the Turks. Compared with the actions of the black army, Lu Dongzan's army moved a little slowly, because after all, 150,000 people, it is not possible to retreat, it is absolutely impossible to be foolproof, and it is good to be orderly and not to be attacked by the enemy.

"Tomorrow the army will turn around, collect grain and grass along the way, and plunder those places that are unwilling to provide grain and grass, they are all the people of Songtsen Gampo, and they do not serve the army of Songtsen Gampo, so there is no need to exist."

"Yes, father."

In the past few days, on Qinling's biggest concern is the problem of grain and grass, and now that his father has issued such an order, he is also clear about what to do next, on Qinling is more ambitious than his father Lu Dongzan, he has long thought of wanting to bring the army back by replenishing grain and grass all the way on the spot, but Lu Dongzan has not spoken, he does not dare to assert himself, and now Lu Dongzan has given him such an order, and it is really his father and son, and he thinks the same thing, The 15th Army of Tubo Lu Dongzan quietly left the Bulgai camp in the early morning of the second day and began to march in the Aba area, and such a huge army was captured by Li Yong's ghost special forces and agents of the Intelligence Bureau as soon as it left Bulgai.

"There are a lot of these Tubo banners, you see that it has been almost half an hour, and there are still behind."

Pei Xingjian bit at least a piece of grass, holding a telescope in his hand to observe the Tubo army in the distance, the 150,000 army is constantly marching on the road, the flag can cover the sky and the sun, Pei Xingjian is too lazy to count the number of people, such a large army, it is useless to count, you can guess how many people, if you don't have 150,000, there are at least 100,000, they are okay, they don't want them to need logistics or anything, they don't need these nomads at all, they all go there and grab there, and feed the war with war.

"Captain, we just watched them leave like this?"

"Nonsense, you're going to fight? There are so many cavalry, one charge, we have to explain here, and you forgot the orders of the headquarters? Our task is to monitor the movements of the enemy, not to fight, shut up, and count the number of those banners, so that the commander and the commander cannot answer the questions when the time comes, and when the time comes, be careful that the commander picks your skin. ”

The members of the ghost special forces quickly shrank their heads, they knew that Xue Rengui usually didn't talk much, but he was definitely ruthless, this is the so-called model of people who don't talk much, the black army that violated military discipline, whether you are an officer or a soldier, there is no good one in his hands, the famous little black house is a pass, to ensure that you will never forget, the members of the ghost special forces and the intelligence bureau recorded all the information of Lu Dongzan's 150,000 army in their respective hiding places, and then transmitted it to Li Yong's hands. At this time, Li Yong had already come to the vicinity of Aba with the black army, and Li Yong took a look at the latest information and said to Xue Rengui.

"Lu Dongzan, that old fox is coming, let the brothers be on guard, and you are not allowed to attack without my order."

Xue Rengui saluted and went to give an order, leaving only Li Yong alone on the hillside, his guards were only on guard twenty meters behind him, on the unknown hillside of Tubo, Li Yong was wearing a black Xishan helmet, his face was shrouded by the mask of Erlang God, no one could see his expression under the mask, the spring breeze blew the black cloak on his back and blew it up, and hunted, the black army did not have a military flag, because they were the night walkers of the Tang Dynasty, the military flag was undoubtedly an obstacle to expose them, and even the navy did not have a military flag, The sails were all dyed black, Li Yong had his back behind him, looking at the road where there was no one under the hillside, Li Yong knew that in a while, Lu Dongzan's army was going to pass through here, the black army on the hillside had been on guard, the combat position had been arranged, and they were waiting for the order to attack, and then their officers brought them the order to continue the vigilance, no fire was allowed without an order, and everyone in the entire black army position looked intently at the situation down the hillside, The officers took binoculars and looked at the direction of the dust in the distance, they knew that it was the march of the army with a large number of people, and their faces were solemn, after all, the other party was an army of 150,000, and more than half of them were cavalry, although their firearms were powerful, but they could not withstand the impact of so many cavalry, and cold sweat was already breaking out in everyone's armor, and it was the first time for all of them to fight such a large-scale battle, even those veterans who had experienced the battles of Tuyuhun, Turkic, and Songzhou were also the first time. Lu Dongzan knew that Li Yong's black army must be monitoring him, but he knew that the black army would definitely not attack him, so he could only let people leave with the army.

"Report, thirty miles ahead, I found a suspected enemy soldier."

"Only one person? What are the characteristics? ”

"No, it's just black armor all over and a strange mask on the face."

"Okay, I see, keep exploring."

Lu Dongzan already knew who the other party was in his heart, but he didn't say it to his face, but his son Lun Qinling asked.

"Father, is it the ambush of the black army?"

Lu Dongzan shook his head and said.

"No, if I didn't guess wrong, it should be that person, you continue to lead the army forward, I will meet in person, don't worry, he won't attack us, because we all know that now is not the time to attack each other, so he is just unwilling."

After that, he took two personal soldiers to ride away from the brigade and ran towards Li Yong's small hillside, it was too late for Qinling to stop it, even if he wanted to stop it, it was useless, he knew his father's character, and it was impossible to change the things he decided, even if he was his son, it was useless, Lu Dongzan soon came to the small hillside, and he saw a person standing on the hillside from a distance, and the person's black armor did not shine at all in the spring sun, probably because it was black, Coupled with the black cloak on his back fluttering in the wind, he was majestic, Lu Dong Zan stopped his horse, and then raised a hand to stop his two personal soldiers from advancing.

"You're waiting for me here."

The two pro-soldiers are Lu Dongzan's retainers, and he obeys his orders unconditionally, Lu Dongzan's legs gently clamp the fat belly of the horse under him, the horse under him understands the master's order, and walks slowly forward with his hooves with a low neigh, Li Yong on the hillside has naturally seen Lu Dongzan for a long time, he seems to be waiting for an old friend, standing motionless, and then watching him ride a horse step by step to his side, Li Yong looked at Lu Dongzan condescendingly, Lu Dongzan looked up slightly at the black-armored warrior on the hillside.

"Long time no see."

Li Yong didn't answer Lu Dongzan's sudden sentence I haven't seen you for a long time, but he frowned when he was masked, he knew what Lu Dongzan meant, that is, he had already guessed who he was, but he couldn't admit it, because even if his identity was known by him, in the absence of any evidence, it would not have any effect on Li Yong, and he was still wearing a mask, who knew who he was? Lu Dongzan seemed to know what Li Yong was thinking and worrying about, and he continued with a smile.

"If you don't speak, it doesn't mean I don't know what you're thinking, Xishan Bo, oh, no, I should call you Huatinghou, right? You do surprise me, I can't imagine that you have such a powerful army, the famous black demon. The black army of the Black Plague turned out to be yours, what would happen if the emperor of the Tang Dynasty knew? Yes, you may be thinking in your heart, I don't have evidence, the Tang Emperor won't believe it, right? It seems that you still don't know your father-in-law, I have no evidence, but as long as he knows that you are the commander of the black army, suspicion does not need evidence, especially your father-in-law, he is the overlord of the prisoner father and brother who killed his brother, as long as someone threatens his throne, do you say he will let you go? ”

Li Yong said lightly under the cold Erlang God mask.

"I haven't seen you for a long time, Tubo Da Theory, Lu Dongzan, it is indeed powerful, although what you said is very reasonable, but you said one thing, that is, my old man is a ruthless man, but he is also a male lord whose wisdom is not less than you and me, it can be described as an emperor through the ages, his inclusiveness is unique among the emperors of all dynasties, as for your bluff, I don't, you put away your little trick, you and I both know, we may not be at war, but if you want to try the power of my black army, then you can tryI promise you won't be disappointed. ”

Lu Dongzan was indeed bluffing, because he didn't know what Li Yong's final plan was, even if he knew that Li Yong would definitely not fight with him, but who could guarantee it? So his temptation was necessary, but what he could be sure of now was that Li Yong had no intention of fighting him, it was just now, he knew that in the near future, he and Li Yong would have a battle, and he smiled at this young man with a strange mask.

"Hua Tinghou, the next time we meet, you will be dead or alive, farewell."

After speaking, he pulled the reins of the horse, the horse was controlled by the master to turn the horse's head, and then left with the owner on his back, Li Yong looked at Lu Dongzan, who was leaving, and turned around, and then said to Xue Rengui who was waiting.

"What do you think?"

"It's a tough opponent indeed."

"Let's go, withdraw to Xishan, and destroy all the materials that can't be taken away in situ."

Li Yong and Lu Dongzan are simply a sentence that has not been seen for a long time to end the possible war between the two sides, the black army's task this time is considered to be completed, Fu Yun was also killed, Tuguhun destroyed the country, but their task is only a small part of the completion, everyone in the black army knows.
