Chapter 789: Calm the Heart
Murong Shun couldn't help but sigh lightly when he heard this.
"It's a pity that we have already suffered heavy losses in Tuyuhun and can't get much troops, but even so, we will do our best to gather all the forces we can gather and go out with the army."
It's not that Murong Shun deliberately complained, but Tuyuhun really didn't have many troops, because when Li Yong and Li Jing wiped out Tuyuhun last time, they were all disabled, and the previous attack against Tubo had suffered heavy losses, after Tuyuhun was forcibly occupied by Tubo, he fled to Longyou of the Tang Dynasty with his clansmen, but many clansmen chose to take refuge in Tubo, and later, the Tang Dynasty sent Zhang Liang to lead the army, and he gathered a lot of troops to go out with Zhang Liang, but the result was a big defeat, and not many clansmen fled back, After these tosses, they Tuyuhun really suffered heavy losses, the clan is full of women and children, the old people have died on the plateau, and most of the men have died on the battlefield, I really don't know how many years it will take to recover, but now that Datang has sent troops again, they Tuyuhun will do their best even if it is difficult, because Datang is helping them attack Tubo, although Datang is also for their own interests, but after all, on the surface, they are helping Tuyuhun people, but they Tuyuhun really can't take out much troops, This made him feel very sad, and at the same time, he was also a little afraid that the Tang Dynasty monarchs and ministers would think that they were hiding their strength, Li Daoyan waved his hand.
"You don't have many people left in Tuyuhun, how many troops can you gather? Even if you go to the battlefield, it won't help, and you can be a guide. ”
Although Li Daoyan is only the governor of Minzhou, and Murong Shun is the Khan of Tuyuhun, but Li Daoyan is not polite at all when he speaks, Murong Shun can't help but feel a little embarrassed when he hears it, but he is relieved after being embarrassed, if the Tang Dynasty monarchs and ministers think so, at least they will not blame them Tuyuhun sent too few troops, Murong Shun learned the etiquette of the Tang Dynasty and hugged his fists.
"Thank you for your understanding, our Tuyuhun is really suffering too heavy losses, although it will not be wiped out, but I don't know how long it will take to recover."
"Knowing that your Tuyuhun has suffered heavy losses, okay, go back and prepare, the British Duke should soon lead a large army to Longyou, tell your people the good news, and reassure your people."
Li Daoyan waved his hand indifferently, not to mention that Tuyuhun is now suffering heavy losses, even when Tuyuhun was in his heyday, it was not in Li Daoyan's eyes, Murong Shun walked out of the Governor's Mansion quickly, when he came, his steps were heavy, but when he left, his steps were very brisk, and when he walked out of the Governor's Mansion, Murong Shun suddenly breathed a long sigh of relief, as if he wanted to relieve all the horror and grievances he had been suffering for so long.
"Great Khan, what's wrong?"
The guard hurriedly asked, and Murong Shun immediately laughed when he heard it.
"Datang is finally going to send troops!"
The guards couldn't help but be overjoyed when they heard this, because they understood that now it is impossible for their clansmen to drive away the Tubo people to recover the clan land, and the only thing they can rely on is the Tang Dynasty, if the Tang Dynasty does not send troops, they will be wiped out, as long as the Tang Dynasty is willing to send troops, they have hope, I hope that the Tang Dynasty will not send troops as hastily as last time, and will not fail as badly as last time.
"Great Khan, how many troops did the Tang Dynasty send this time? Can you win against the Tibetans? ”
The guards hurriedly asked, and Murong Shun laughed with great confidence when he heard it.
"Don't worry, this time the troops will be dispatched, and Datang will win! Let's go back to the clan and tell you the good news. ”
Although the Tuyuhun clan fled to Longyou, it was impossible to enter Minzhou City, they were only stationed in a very remote place, Murong Shun and others galloped all the way, rushing towards the temporary clan land, under the blue sky and white clouds, an endless yurt, the surroundings were very peaceful, but every yurt was filled with a breath of depression and despair, because most of the people living here are women, they have no home, and most of them don't even have men, and they don't know if they can return home. Murong Shun's return still caused great movement, since the last time the Tang army was defeated, everyone is like a frightened bird, they don't know whether the Tang Dynasty will send troops, and they don't know if the Tang army can repel the Tubo people, they are very eager for the Great Khan to bring good news, can give everyone a little hope for life.
"The Great Khan is back!"
"The Great Khan is back!"
The leaders of the tribes immediately ran out, and Murong Shun reined in his war horse and said loudly impatiently.
"Tell you the good news, Datang is ready to send troops again!"
The leaders of the tribes couldn't help but feel excited when they heard this, because the Tang Dynasty's dispatch of troops had become their only hope, although they did not know whether the Tang army could repel the Tibetans.
"Great, Datang has finally sent troops again!"
The leaders said excitedly, and Murong Shun said excitedly,
"Moreover, this expedition, the Tang Emperor paid unprecedented attention to it, and sent four famous generals to lead the troops!"
"What?"
"English duke?"
"Lu Guogong?"
"Eguo Gong?"
"And the prince of Rongfu?"
The leaders looked incredulous when they heard this, and they almost fainted with excitement, because the selection of this coach was too luxurious, and he actually dispatched four famous generals who shocked the world at once! These four princes are far from being comparable to Zhang Liang, Datang dispatched four famous generals at once, and this can't win against the Tubo people?
"Did the Duke of Rongfu go out with the Divine Machine Battalion?"
The leader of the tribe couldn't wait to ask, and Murong Shun nodded and said loudly.
"That's right, the Rongfu County Guild is going out with the Divine Machine Battalion!"
"It's okay now, Datang dispatched four famous generals to lead the troops at once, and the Tubo people can only look at the wind and surrender!"
"Yes, yes, the Tubo people are grasshoppers after the autumn, and it won't be long before they jump!"
"God willing, we can finally return home!"
"yes, it won't be long before we can return home!"
Murong said in a loud voice.
"Go and tell the good news to your people, and everyone will be happy, and soon we will return to our homeland, and our great revenge will be avenged!"
A group of tribal leaders all jumped on their horses and galloped away, each returned to the tribe and shouted excitedly, not long after, cheers rang out everywhere, for the older people, they had heard of Li Ji, Cheng Biting Jin, and Wei Chi Gong's achievements in the world, so they were full of Li Ji, Cheng Biting Jin, and Yu Chi Gong, of course, they also knew how powerful Li Yong and the Shenji Battalion were, and their old khan had hired Li Yong's mercenaries, and knew the power of firearms, and it was not their old khan who died, They will not be wiped out by Li Yong's Xishan camp, and for younger people, they haven't heard much of Xu Shiji, Cheng Biting Jin, and Wei Chigong, but they know that Li Yong is powerful, and the reputation of the black plague is too powerful, although they don't know that Li Yong is the leader of the black plague, but the power of firearms, they know, and Li Yong can be said to be the most famous person in the whole world in recent years, just when the people of Tuyuhun cheered and had hope for the future again, The news that the imperial court sent a large army to fight again also came out in the city of Minzhou, the people of Minzhou heard the same joy, they and the Tuyuhun people looked forward to the imperial court as soon as possible to send troops to conquer Tubo, the people here are located in the westernmost part of Longyou, since ancient times have not been less disturbed by foreign attacks, but the Tang Dynasty is so strong, the Tuyuhun was completely subdued, so they finally lived a peaceful life, if Tubo occupies the land of Tuyuhun, then they will have to live a frightened life, afraid that Tubo will come at any time, Although even if the Tibetans attacked, they would be repulsed, but they, the local people, would still suffer! Compared with other people of the Tang Dynasty who are looking forward to the defeat of the Tang army in Tubo for glory, the people of Longyou are looking forward to the Tang army defeating Tubo for their own vital interests, so they are particularly concerned about the movement of the imperial court's troops, I heard that this time the troops were led by Xu Shiji, Li Yong, Cheng Biting Jin, Wei Chi Gong, and Li Yong also led the Shenji Battalion to the expedition, and the people of the entire Minzhou were all boiling, Xu Shiji, Li Yong, Cheng Biting Jin, Wei Chigong, which of the four people are famous all over the world, especially Li Yong is famous all over the world, Shenji Battalion musket, The benefits of artillery are talked about, and the emperor can send these four leading soldiers to the expedition, which shows the importance attached to this expedition, all in all, this expedition is stable! All the people of Minzhou immediately felt at ease, the Tang Dynasty is inclusive, Longyou is located in the northwest, so there are many people in Longyou, or go to Luoyang, Chang'an through Longyou, or do business in Longyou, among them, there are naturally spies of the Tubo people, and even among the Tuyuhun people, Tubo has surrendered to Tubo and become the spies of the Tubo people, so when they heard that the Tang army went out, they reacted differently, and the Tuyuhun people who took refuge in Tubo couldn't help but be shocked when they heard the news, because these four people are really famous all over the world, and even they are like thunder. I didn't expect the Tang Emperor to attach so much importance to this expedition this time, and directly sent four famous generals to lead the troops, they couldn't help muttering in their hearts, and they didn't know if the Tubo people could repel the Tang army this time, however, the Tubo spies hidden in Minzhou were not startled, although the Tang Dynasty's expedition was indeed huge, but their Tubo people were not scared, the Tang Dynasty was indeed very rich, but their Tubo people were more brave and good at fighting, and they had already occupied Tuyuhun to grab the lead, They are very familiar with the topography of Tuyuhun, so they are not afraid that the Tang Dynasty will send troops again, even if it is the so-called famous generals leading the troops, Xu Shiji and others are famous all over the world, but because the Tang Dynasty is the kingdom of the Celestial Empire, Xu Shiji and others are famous, and they Tubo does not have a famous general who can fight well? However, it is because they are located in a remote plateau and have inconvenient transportation, so their famous generals in Tubo are not as famous as the famous generals of the Tang Dynasty, but soon their famous generals in Tubo will become famous all over the world! As long as Xu Shiji, Wei Chigong, Cheng Yanjin, and Li Yong are defeated, the famous generals of Tubo will be famous all over the world, and at that time, the only famous generals that Datang can come up with will be Xu Shiji, and Xu Shiji is already old! Whether it is the spies of Tubo, but the Tuyuhun people who took refuge in Tubo, they wanted to send back the news of the Tang Dynasty as soon as they received the news, in any case, the Tang Dynasty sent troops this time, and they must pay attention to it, and they need to send the news back as soon as possible. Therefore, the cities of Longyou are very unwelcome to these Tubo envoys, but they also have to let go, after entering Tuyuhun, they are divided into two teams, one team went to Tuyuhun Wangcheng to inform the general stationed there, and the other team took a shortcut to go straight to Tubo and, although Songtsen Gampo is the thirty-third Zampu, in fact, it is the king of the founding of Tubo who completed the unification, and it is also after the establishment of the country, Songtsen Gampo moved the capital to Luo, which is the Lhasa of later generations, and originally Luozhi is a very prosperous city on the plateau, After becoming the royal capital of Tibet, it has developed rapidly, and has already become the most prosperous city on the plateau, of course, Chang'an and Luoyang are not comparable at all, but for the Tubo people who have never left the plateau, Luo has never appeared on the plateau of the prosperous giant city, and because Tubo has won battles and battles everywhere, and also annexed Tuyuhun and defeated the Tang army, so the people of the entire Luo City are exuding a confident and proud temperament, in their opinion, the Tang Dynasty, which is rumored to be the world's first power, is nothing more than that, In the solemn and luxurious palace, Songtsen Gampo walked to a palace, and the maids in front of the palace all bowed down.
"Greetings Zampu!"
"What about the princess? Are you still stuffy in the dormitory? ”
Songtsen Gampo asked in a deep voice.
"Back to Zampu, the princess hasn't stepped out of the dormitory for a day today."
The maid hurriedly replied.
Songtsen Gampo couldn't help but sigh when he heard this, how lively and lovely his sister was at the beginning, how could she stay in the dormitory like now and not go out? In fact, he really loves this sister, but compared to the whole kingdom, the kingdom is more important, in order to make the kingdom stronger, he does owe his sister, and there is really no way, but the kingdom has become stronger, isn't it a good thing for my sister? My sister will become even more noble as the princess of the kingdom! Songtsen Gampo just walked into the front hall, and then saw the door of the inner hall slammed shut, this kind of thing has happened more than once, Songtsen Gampo was very helpless, and said loudly.
"Zhenzhu, the weather is so good today, don't you want to go hunting? I recently got a beautiful bow, and I wanted to give it to you. ”
"I don't want to hunt, and I don't want to see you!"
Princess Pearl's crisp voice came through the crack in the door.
Songtsen Gampo said helplessly.
"I sent troops to attack Tuyuhun, it was a national plan, and it was the result of the collective deliberation of all the courtiers and generals, how could I ignore it because of a little personal affection of my children? Besides, it was Tuyuhun, not the Tang Dynasty, as for the later defeat of the Tang Army, it was also because the Tang Army took the initiative to attack, and I had already sent an envoy to the Tang Dynasty to sue for peace! ”
Princess Zhenzhu snorted coldly.
"Did you send someone to Datang to sue for peace because of me? Are you stupid for me? Are you afraid that the Tang Dynasty will send troops again, hindering you from continuing to march westward! ”
