Chapter 983: The Lu Clan didn't want Qin Ling to win, but they didn't want him to win big
Huge goshawks flew above the night sky, and the earth was clear.
A Tibetan cavalry quietly outflanked the black-armored cavalry from the periphery of the army, but the black-armored cavalry rushed to the mountainside first, turned around and dived, and instantly penetrated the vital position of the Tibetan cavalry, defeating it in one fell swoop.
Then make a U-turn and head east.
Li Xuan raised his head and looked into the sky.
The stars and moon are thin, and the shadow of the goshawk cannot be seen on the ground at all.
But all the movements of the Tibetan cavalry were under Li Xuan's gaze, and everything was as obvious as the observation of the pattern in the palm of his hand.
The cavalry of the Tubo people who tried to find out the movements of the Tang Dynasty were all intercepted by Li Xuan.
At the moment when the army completely withdrew into the swamp, Li Xuan immediately led the army back to Xiaohuashi Gorge.
……
The gates of the city were closed, and the soldiers, who had fought all night, were immediately dismounted by their comrades and sent to the barracks to rest.
Li Xuan landed at the head of the city at the first time.
Qiu Zhenmu, Zhou Qian, Su Baotong, Yan Tao, Li Yi and other generals also followed.
In the distance, the Tibetans had already begun to try to attack Xiaohuashi Gorge, but the crossbow arrows fired from the steep slopes on both sides tore them back and forth in an instant.
On the battlefield, the most taboo is the disconnect between the front and the back.
The fastest person who rushes is always the fastest to die.
In addition, the lights above the city gate were brightly lit, and countless black-clothed soldiers stood on the city wall, and the huge bed crossbows were aimed at the gorge.
The Tibetan offensive finally stopped.
Under the night, Li Xuan looked at the head of Dahuashixia City, and his face was cold.
In the eyes of the goshawk, two figures stood at the head of Dahuashixia City, and one of them was the Qin Tomb.
At this moment, the Lun Qin Tomb is looking up.
The goshawk flew high in an instant, and in a moment it had been mixed into a dark cloud and disappeared.
At this time, Lun Qinling frowned slightly, looked to his side and said, "Daza, Ben Shuai always feels that above the night sky, there seems to be a pair of eyes staring at us, and it has been like this since nightfall.
Do you think there will be anyone standing in the sky to help Datang keep an eye on us. ”
"Yes, it should also be a goddess, help us keep an eye on Datang." Daza Gonglu bowed slightly, his face respectful.
On Qinling breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Daza, from today on, you will protect Qinghai, if you can't take Qinghai back this year, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the Queen Mother to explain." ”
There is no Lu Dazha Gonglu, the former Tubo Qingnan Protector, so the Tubo Qingdong Protector does not have Lu Uxiza's brother, and the Tubo Queen Mother does not have Lu's own brother.
After Shang Jiezan was killed by Li Xuan's arrow, Non Qinling directly promoted Dazha Gonglu to be the protector of Qinghai.
"Don't worry, this autumn and winter, the Tang people are short of food, I'm afraid it won't be long before they have to retreat, not to mention, there are also light troops and Turks to help."
After a slight pause, Dazha Gonglu sneered and said: "Last year, Zampu died of illness, which made them take advantage of the loophole, this year, not only must they take back all the Qingdong, Qingbei and Qingxi, but also take all of them in Kuozhou, Hezhou, Shanzhou, and Lanzhou." ”
On Qinling leaned sideways and couldn't help frowning.
He really didn't like Daza Gonglu very much.
When Zampu didn't pass away before, Dazha Gonglu was very respectful to him, but now that Zampu is not there, the new king has ascended the throne, and although the Lu family still respects him, some of his thoughts have involuntarily swelled.
With a slight sweep of his eyes, he said, "The Turks have repented, and the Guang army has not attacked Delingha and Fuqi City. ”
"Ahh Daza Gonglu was stunned for a moment, and forgot to close his open mouth for a while.
According to their original plan, the Guang army took Delingha and Fuqi City, and then joined up with the Turks and killed behind Dafeichuan together.
But now that the Turks have repented, the light army may be besieged in an instant.
And they haven't taken Delingha and Fuqi City yet.
Dazha Gonglu couldn't help but turn around slightly, looked at Non Qinling, and asked softly, "Great Minister, why is this?" ”
"The Tang Dynasty Zhongshu ordered, Li Jingxuan, the general manager of the Northwest Road March, led the army to reinforce, carrying 10,000 new troops and a large amount of grain and grass, and now has arrived in Tianshui, and in three days, it will arrive in Qugou." On Qinling shook his head calmly.
No one knows why, but Qinling knows the news in the Tang Dynasty so clearly.
It seems that in addition to the Demon Dao, there are other news channels for the Qinling.
Dazha Gonglu couldn't care about this, and when he heard what Qin Ling said, his face suddenly became ugly and terrifying.
The Tang people increased their troops, and there was also a large amount of grain and grass, which was extremely bad news for Tibet.
Taking a deep breath, Dazha Gonglu gritted his teeth and said, "There is still a winter, and I don't believe that they will not lack food this winter." ”
On Qinling glanced at Dazha Gonglu calmly, with a hint of subtlety in his eyes.
Without the heir of the Lu family, that's all it takes.
As soon as Usiza died, there was no successor to the Lu clan.
Turning to look at the vast world in front of him, Tan Qinling's heart couldn't help but sink.
In this battle, although both sides did not use all their strength, they could also see each other's reality and reality.
Datang has the king of Nanchang, Wang Xiaojie, Heizhi Changzhi, and Li Duozuo, and the younger generation has the upper hand in the future.
If Qinghai can't completely suppress them in this battle, then in the future, it may be difficult for Tubo to support it.
On Qinling remembered the book "Three Kingdoms" given to him by the assassin of Hezhou in the Tang Dynasty, and the whole person couldn't help but feel irritable.
Zhuge Liang, Cao Cao, Sima Yi.
Sometimes, it's not a one-person thing to want to choose.
It was precisely because of that "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms" that the Qinling sent Yuan Ming to Luo.
As for whether he lives or dies after arriving at Logos, that is his own business.
"Dazha, from tomorrow, you attack Xiaohuashi Gorge, whether you can take it or not, you must firmly contain the king of Nanchang here." On Qinling suddenly spoke.
Dazha Gonglu immediately bowed solemnly: "Wow! ”
Immediately, Dazha Gonglu raised his head and asked, "Is the prime minister going to march into Dafeichuan within these three days?" ”
Three days?
On Qinling raised his head, looked at Maji Snow Mountain in the distance, and said softly: "Do you know why the Tang people retreated overnight?" ”
"Please give me advice."
"The news of the instability of the Turks reached the front of the Tang Army." A sneer appeared at the corner of Qin Ling's mouth, and he said softly: "How do you think Datang got this news?" ”
Dazha Gonglu was stunned for a moment, and then bowed silently.
This is the method of discussing the Qinling, if the Turks cooperate with them well, then the news will naturally be concealed; And as soon as the Turks showed any signs of repetition, the Lun Qinling immediately sent them to the butcher's knife of the Tang people.
"At least in this war, the Turks will not need it."
"Prime minister, why don't you hide the news, fighting in Wuhai, our army is advantageous!" Dazha Gonglu knows the reality of the army very clearly.
"You're wrong." On Qinling turned his head to look at Dazha Gonglu, shook his head and said: "In this battle, at least in Wuhai, Datang has an undefeated victory. ”
"Huh?"
On Qinling turned his head to look at Xiaohuashixia, and said softly: "The king of Nanchang has never returned to Xiaohuashixia, my heart is uneasy!" ”
The pond dam of Xiaohuashi Gorge can't be concealed from the Qinling.
In terms of the ability of Qinling, although Li Xuan has been very careful, it has always been impossible to hide the decrease in the amount of river water flowing from Xiaohuashi Gorge.
Especially this winter, the whole river has almost become a small stream, and he can't see the reason for this.
"Okay, you go and prepare, the king of Nanchang will be contained here, and the original appearance will be your first credit." On Qinling turned sideways and looked at Dazha Gonglu.
"Whoa!" Daza Gonglu cautiously retreated.
From the beginning to the end, he did not hear any reminder or warning from the Tomb of the Emperor about the accumulation of water.
On Qinling turned around and looked at the heaven and earth in the distance.
A book slipped down his sleeve.
It was the "Three Kingdoms".
……
The morning light fell, and three thousand cavalry crossed the valley mouth of Xiaohuashi Gorge.
Li Xuan stood at the head of the city and watched more cavalry exit towards the swamp more than ten miles away like black water.
Enter the swamp and head straight to the Sea of Bitterness.
On the Qinling has left the Great Flower Stone Gorge,
"It's a pity." Li Xuan sighed lightly, the evacuation last night was so smooth that their layout of staying in the Bitter Sea and Changshui Pass did not take effect at all.
In other words, Qinling was alerted in advance.
After all, if you use the fire attack technique once, it will be difficult to use it again.
Those traps in Changshui Pass may have to be used again when the Tubo people retreat.
Li Xuan's eyes looked at the three thousand cavalry in the distance, but he knew that there were still two thousand cavalry in the Dahuashi Gorge.
As for the rest, there are none,
Then there is also outside the southern exit of Dahuashi Gorge.
If Li Xuan captures Dahuashi Gorge at this time, he will be able to immediately cut off the retreat of the Qinling Tomb.
But does Qin Ling really care?
Li Xuan had a feeling in the dark that this big flower stone gorge and the five thousand cavalry were the traps left by Qin Ling.
Once Li Xuan took Dahuashi Gorge, then he would not be able to leave here and go to Dafeichuan to participate in the battle.
After all, even Li Xuan couldn't completely trust the retreat of Qinling.
Once Dafeichuan is defeated and Xinghai is lost, Huashixia is useless.
……
Countless Tibetan cavalry charged Xiaohuashi Gorge, but when they were suddenly rained by arrows, they immediately swarmed and retreated.
Yan Tao stood beside Li Xuan, and when he saw this scene, his eyes were full of disbelief: "Lord Wang, what's going on?" ”
"Nothing happened." Li Xuan shook his head calmly, but his eyes kept looking at Dazha Gonglu outside the canyon, and said softly: "He is preserving his strength. ”
"Preserve your strength?" Yan Tao didn't understand for a while.
"Yesterday, on Qinling had just withdrawn, so he naturally had to put on a good show, but as soon as the tragic siege battle began, he knew that he would definitely not be able to bear the result, and at the same time, he also understood that on Qinling was using him as bait." Li Xuan took a deep breath and quickly figured it all out in his mind.
"Bait?"
"Hmm!" Li Xuan nodded and said: "There are only 5,000 sheep divisions in Dahuashi Gorge, and the guard strength is still insufficient, how can you dare to attack the city under the nose of this king, once it is lost, it is natural for the city to be destroyed and destroyed, so it is inevitable to attack the city perfunctorily, and ...... in addition."
After a slight pause, Li Xuan said softly: "Dahua Shixia Guardian Dazha Gonglu is the younger brother of Queen Wulu, and it is not a matter of faith and experience to put him here, but to kill him. ”
"The queen's brothers have already seized power in the Tubo Dynasty and on the Qinling?" Yan Tao immediately understood.
"It should be like ......" Before Li Xuan's words were finished, a fast horse had already arrived from a distance, and then a long arrow shot towards Li Xuan's door.
With a "whoosh", Li Xuan raised his hand, and he was already holding the long arrow that was shooting, and his eyes fell on the note tied to the long arrow.
"Killing is ruthless, all living beings are roots."
"What does that mean?" Yan Tao looked at the note, looking uncertain.
"Battlefield killing, life and death are ruthless, all beings are affectionate, and all roots are purdue." Li Xuan sighed lightly and said, "He is telling this king that he remembered the love of this king when he returned Usiza corpse, so from today on, he will not send troops to attack the city again." ”
"He is asking the prince to go to Dafeichuan to deal with the Qinling." Yan Tao immediately understood.
"In this battle, the Lu clan didn't want to win against Qinling, but they didn't want him to win big, so they played tricks." The corners of Li Xuan's mouth brought out a sneer.
Women, thousands of miles away, have to manipulate the battlefield, it's really not how to write dead words.
"Lord Wang, if he repents......"
"If you regret it, let go of the gate and let him in." Li Xuan looked sideways at Yan Tao and said in a low voice: "Three or four thousand people, can this city bury them?" ”
"It can be, but it will inevitably move the levee."
"It's okay, if you want to kill the Qinling, you may not need to attack it with water now." Li Xuan looked deeply at Dahuashi Gorge and said softly: "You said that once you are defeated, who wants to let the Qin Ling die the most?" ”
"No, Lu."
