Since they knew that this expedition was to guard the grain and grass, the generals of the Shenji Battalion had been very disappointed, but at this time, they all said that it was good to guard the grain and grass, and they didn't look like they were perfunctory at all, and they said it very sincerely, because they were all stupid after hearing that the county prince scolded the saint, and they were scared into a cold sweat, if they didn't know that the county prince's holy family was extraordinary, they would have persuaded the county prince to write a letter to ask for guilt, guarding the grain and grass is nothing more than boring, nothing more than a little credit, these are actually okay, Compared to scolding the emperor in public, this is not enough to mention at all, seeing Xue Wanche's sincere and sincere appearance, Li Yong couldn't help laughing.

"It's good to guard the grain and grass! My father has always thought it was good. ”

Li Yuntian was confused when he heard it.

"Huh? The county lord has always thought it was good to guard the grain and grass? Then why did the county prince get drunk and scold the saint? Could it be that the rumors are wrong? ”

Li Yong said with a smile.

"The three of them are just tigers, how can this father scold the saint? Just scolded a few words. ”

Li Yuntian and the others almost fell down when they heard it, so they just scolded a few words? What do you mean by just a few scolding? How many more sentences do you want to scold? Zheng Zhongyi asked cautiously.

"Do you think it's good or bad to guard the grain and grass?"

Li Yong said with a smile.

"My father just pretended to be drunk last night, and the words he said also have other deep meanings, it's just that I thought of Xinghai and told you again, but if I don't tell you now, you probably can't sleep well at night, since you have arrived in Longyou, you are about to enter Xinghai, and I should tell you."

Xue Wanche, Li Yuntian and the others were confused when they heard it, and listened to the meaning of the county prince, as if the military order to guard the grain and grass had another deep meaning? But what else is there? Xue Wanche remembered what Li Yong had said to him and said excitedly.

"County Prince, could it be that we are not stationed in Xinghai, but as a surprise army to attack the Tubo people?"

The generals were all excited when they heard this, as a surprise attack on the Tubo people? This sounds exciting! Li Yong waved his hand and said.

"Not really, we just want to garrison Xinghai."

Xue Wanche and the others couldn't help but be a little disappointed when they heard this, and they were sure that they were stationed in Xinghai, which meant that it was unlikely that there would be a war, looking at everyone's slightly disappointed faces, Li Yong explained with a smile.

"If you just defeat the Tubo, it is not difficult, and you don't need to spend a lot of time, but the Tubo envoys are too domineering, which completely angers the sage, in order to solve the threat of the Tubo people once and for all, the sage decided to completely annihilate the Tubo soldiers and horses that invaded Tuyuhun, so as to inflict heavy losses on the Tubo."

Xue Wanche and the others couldn't help but be slightly stunned when they heard this, and then they couldn't help frowning, they also felt that it was not difficult to defeat the Tubo people, but if they wanted to completely annihilate all the Tubo people who invaded Tuyuhun, it would not be so easy, not only not so easy, but difficult, because the Tubo people came and went like the wind and were familiar with the terrain, and after the defeat, they could escape and return to Tubo with the help of the terrain, however, the sage's decision was also right, if Tubo could not be hit hard, then the Tubo people would definitely find an opportunity to attack Tuyuhun, and even invade the Tang Dynasty, Xue Wanche scratched his head and said.

"If you want to completely annihilate the soldiers and horses of Tibet, it is not so easy!"

Li Yong said with a smile.

"It's really not easy, to set up a trap to lure the Tubo people into the trap, and then surround and kill them, and Xinghai is the trap, we are the bait!"

Xue Wanche and the others were all stunned when they heard this, Xinghai is a trap? Is it bait? They were stunned for a while before they reacted, and Li Yuntian scratched his head and said.

"Jungong, Xinghai is a place to store grain, and it can work as bait, but our Shenji Battalion guards Xinghai, do the Tubo people dare to come?"

Feng Shun and the others nodded again and again.

"That's right, that's the reason, our Shenji Battalion is sitting in Xinghai, how can the Tubo people come to burn grain and grass?"

Li Yong smiled and waved his hand.

"If the Tubo people really want to burn grain and grass, they will only send a group of soldiers and horses to attack, and it is impossible to send all the soldiers and horses to risk the annihilation of the whole army to attack the grain and grass later."

Everyone couldn't help but nod when they heard this, this analysis does make sense, so the question is, how could Xinghai become a bait? Xue Wanche scratched his head and asked.

"Jungong, how can the bait of Xinghai attract all the Tubo people into the trap?"

Li Yong said with a smile.

"Because my father is in Xinghai!"

Xue Wanche and the others were all dumbfounded, what does this mean? They never expected to get such an answer, Li Yong said with a smile.

"This prince has a lot of secret recipes to make money, and he can also make artifacts such as muskets and artillery, all along, Songtsen Gampo and Lu Dongzan have been beating my idea, this time I am stationed in Xinghai with the Shenji battalion, and the Tubo people are likely to want to capture me back to Tubo!"

Xue Wanche couldn't help but suddenly realize when he heard this, yes, the county prince can turn stones into gold, there are so many secret recipes with so many financial resources in his hands, any idea can gather millions of yuan, and he can also create magic weapons such as muskets and artillery, and he can also fly into the sky, he is simply omnipotent, how can the people of Tubo not salivate? As long as the news of the county prince stationed in Xinghai spreads, the Tubo people will definitely come and want to rob the county prince back to Tubo! At this moment, they finally understood why the county guild pretended to be drunk and scolded in the street, it turned out that it wanted to pass the news of the Shenji Battalion's garrison in Xinghai to the spies in Tubo, so that the spies in Tubo could pass the news back to Tubo! Xue Wanche suddenly realized.

"It turns out that the county prince pretended to be drunk and wanted to reveal the news to the spies in Tubo!"

Li Yong nodded with a smile.

"Yes, my father has also taken great pains, in order to behave more truthfully, he even scolded the saint a few words, if the saint knows, he will definitely be amazed by my wit and bravery!"

Xue Wanche, Li Yuntian and the others couldn't help but caress their foreheads when they heard this, are you serious? scolded the saint and made the saint admire? If it was someone else, they would definitely scoff at it, but the person who said it was the county prince! They will be skeptical, maybe the saint will really be amazed when he knows, no matter whether the saint will be amazed after he knows, but he will not do anything to the county duke, not to mention, the county duke is also for the military affairs, Xue Wanche, Li Yuntian and others who are relieved can't help but get excited, if the county duke's plan to lure the troops really comes to fruition, and the Tubo people really go out to attack Xinghai, then this battle will be big, they are not afraid of fighting more, they are afraid of not fighting! Especially Xue Wanche, he now finally understands what Li Yong meant by what he said to him, no wonder Li Yong was afraid that he would vomit in the war, it turned out that the Tubo people were going to attack Xinghai! As soon as they thought that the Tubo people would come to attack, Xue Wanche and them were excited, they originally thought that there was no battle on this expedition, and they couldn't even see the shadow of a Tubo person, but they didn't expect that there would be not only a battle, but also a big battle to be fought, how could this not make people overjoyed? Looking at Xue Wanche and their excited looks, Li Yong restrained his smile and said in a deep voice.

"The battle is fought, the Tubo people will attack the nest, Xinghai is not a Xiongcheng, and the Yingjun Duke and they don't know when they will be able to encircle, so we must hold on."

Xue Wanche said with a smile.

"Don't worry, the county prince can definitely hold on, I'm afraid that the Tubo people will be scared away by the fighting!"

Li Yun said with a smile.

"If he and the Tubo people keep attacking the city, they don't need the British to surround them, and we can drag the Tubo people to death."

The generals were very excited, and they were very confident in defending the city, and they couldn't wait to fight with the Tubo people immediately, Li Yong said with a smile.

"It's good if you have confidence, this news has been told to you, you must be strict, and you can't tell the soldiers for the time being, this is related to the success or failure of this expedition, if any of you accidentally leak the news to the Tubo people to know, then you are the sinners of the Tang Dynasty, understand?"

All the generals said solemnly.

"The last general obeys!"

They also know how important this matter is, and it is related to the success or failure of this expedition, and this kind of thing is not a joke, of course, they have to keep their mouths shut.

Li Yong waved his hand and said.

"Okay, let's disperse, rest for a few days, it's time to march to Xinghai."

Because of the arrival of the army, some tense atmosphere in Minzhou has been eased, and the people of Minzhou are jubilant, so that Minzhou is even a lot more lively, however, the major military camps are closed doors, and there are no soldiers out of the camp to hang out, they are all resting, preparing for the upcoming expedition, after a few days of rest, the battalions are drawn at the same time, the army is divided into four roads, and the mighty set off, Murong Shun set off with two thousand Tuyuhun cavalry with Xu Shiji's army, because Xu Shiji took 50,000 troops, It is the main force of this expedition, Li Yong led the soldiers and horses of the Shenji battalion to Xinghai, the army is finally about to go to the expedition, the people of Minzhou are very concerned, and they have great expectations for the army, not only the people of Minzhou are concerned, but the spies of Tubo are also very concerned, however, they are concerned about the movements of the Shenji battalion, they found from a distance that the Shenji battalion does carry a large amount of grain and grass, and the direction of travel is indeed Xinghai, which also verifies that the news they inquired about before is true, marching along the way, Li Yong didn't dare to disperse the scouts too far, for fear of scaring the spies of the Tubo people, and the Tubo spies rushed to the Tuyuhun King City by himself, he looked very tired, but his eyes were very attentive, revealing greed and desire.

"I'm a spy lurking in Minzhou City, I found out the movement of the Shenji Battalion, I want to see the general!"

All the guards immediately went to the big tent to report the news, the Tibetan general Saamu strode over, he was very surprised, because he had already received an urgent letter from Zampu, and naturally knew how important Zampu was to this matter, Zampu personally came with soldiers and horses, can he pay more attention to this?

"You said you found out about the movements of the Shenji Battalion?"

Saamu asked repeatedly.

"General Qiqi, the villain did find out the movements of the Shenji Battalion, and Li Yong is going to take the Shenji Battalion to Xinghai to guard the grain and grass."

"The Shenji Battalion is going to Xinghai to guard the grain and grass? Are you sure? ”

Saamu asked in a deep voice.

"Sure, the villain is very sure, the villain listened to Li Yong himself."

The spy hurriedly said, and Saamu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard it.

"Listen to what Li Yong said himself? How did you do that? ”

"Li Daoyan, the governor of Minzhou, set up a banquet to catch the wind and wash the dust in Qingfeng Building, and the small one was disguised and ambushed on the street near Qingfeng Tower and waited for an opportunity to inquire about the news, but Li Yong was drunk and drunk, and scolded the emperor on the street, saying that the emperor asked them to go to Xinghai to guard the grain and grass is overkill, and they have no eyes, Cheng Biting Jin They scolded Li Yong and asked Li Yong not to say more, Li Yong didn't care about it because of the big crime of drinking, and was soon carried away by Cheng Biting Jin."

Saamu listened very carefully, and after listening to it, he couldn't help but be overjoyed and laughed.

"I see! The Shenji Camp is famous all over the world, Li Yong is young and vigorous, how could he be willing to guard the grain and grass, and it is no wonder that the Tang Emperor arranged it like this, no wonder Li Yong would be resentful! Since Li Yong feels so wronged, it is better to abandon the darkness and turn to the light, and come directly to our Tubo, Zampu is the only one, and he will definitely not arrange for him to guard the grain and grass! ”

The other generals couldn't help but laugh when they heard this.

"Hahaha, it turns out that Li Yong is so aggrieved! At that time, if we didn't send someone over to recruit and surrender, Li Yong directly surrendered to our Tubo! ”

In fact, not only Songtsan Gampo and Lu Dongzan are very greedy for Li Yong, but the generals of Tubo are also very greedy for Li Yong, although most of them have never been to the Tang Dynasty, let alone seen Li Yong, but most of them have tasted a line of heavenly wine, and there are only two points to experience, one is really expensive, and the other is really enjoyable, not for anything else, even if it is for burning knives and wine, they also want to take Li Yong back to Tibet! Saamu shook his head slightly.

"Li Yong's family business is in Datang, how can he submit to our Tubo because of the dissatisfaction of guarding the grain and grass this time, after all, Datang is prosperous and picturesque, and our Tubo is still far from being comparable."

The Tibetan spies watched from the sidelines, he didn't pay any attention to these things, he only cared about one thing now, and that was his reward! Saamu turned his head to look at the spy and smiled.

"Yes, you have made a great achievement, you should be rewarded heavily, you live in the royal city first, Zampu will arrive in the royal city in a few days, and Zampu will personally reward you at that time."

The spy almost fainted when he heard this, he didn't expect to have the opportunity to see Zampu, and Zampu would personally reward him, how could he be stingy if Zampu personally rewarded him? It must have been more than he had imagined!

"Thank you, General, thank you!"

The spy said excitedly, and Saamu laughed.

"This is what you deserve, you will live in the royal city first, but the news you heard is top secret, so you are not allowed to wander around for the time being, let alone tell others, you know?"

"Don't worry, the general, the villain understands!"

The spy hurriedly said, Saamu nodded with satisfaction, and waved his hand to let the spy go down.

"General, is Zampu really about to arrive in the royal city?"

The general asked, and Saamu nodded with a smile.

"Zampu is very anxious, according to speculation, it should be about to arrive in the royal city."

The generals couldn't help but be excited when they heard this, Zampu has arrived in person, and the war is about to begin!
