In the dim camp, Brenzan looked at the letterhead in front of him, looked up in disbelief, looked at the middle-aged man dressed in Tubo in front of him, and asked with some trembling: "My second brother is dead?" ”

The middle-aged man nodded sadly and said, "The prime minister was shot at the front line, and after returning to Naqu, he died." ”

Brunzan suddenly pinched the letterhead in his hand to death, and then stared at the middle-aged man and said, "You say you are from Dazhha?" ”

The middle-aged man arched his hand and said: "After the city of Naqu was broken, his subordinates and General Dariha escaped from the city together, and the carriage where the prime minister was was intercepted by the king of Nanchang, and there was no news of the prime minister after that. ”

Brunzan Blade's face was completely gloomy, he looked at the middle-aged man, and said word by word: "You said that after my second brother returned to Naqu, he died, and then said that the carriage he was in was intercepted......"

"That's the carriage carrying the body of the Great Minister." The middle-aged man bowed his head with a sad face.

"Then you came and told me that my second brother was dead." Brenzan stared at the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man arched his hand calmly and said, "The subordinates are on the orders of General Dariha. ”

"Dariha, I think it's the king of Nanchang, come here." Brunzan Blade looked out suddenly.

With a cold drink, the next moment several sturdy guards had already rushed into the tent, and there was no need to wait for the order of the Brenzan Blade, the knife in their hands was already on the neck of the middle-aged man.

However, even with the addition of a sharp blade, the middle-aged man still did not change color, and looked at Brenzan Blade calmly.

Brunzan Blade's face instantly became gloomy, and his chest rose and fell violently.

After a few moments, he finally waved his hand, and the guards immediately withdrew.

"Although you speak like a Tibetan person, some of your things are all Tang people's manners...... No, you did it on purpose, on purpose. Brunzan Blade's face suddenly looked at the middle-aged man with an extremely gloomy face.

The middle-aged man smiled and arched his hand: "I have seen the general in Xia Guo Zhong, and I have lived in Tubo for many years, but I am not the person of the king of Nanchang, but I came to pass a message for the king of Nanchang." ”

"You say." Brenzan Blade's breathing suddenly became heavy.

"Although Qinling is dead, but Zanxiruo is still there, then if Zanxiruo is also dead, can the Gar family survive without the Lu family's butcher's knife?" Guo Zhong's fluttering words, Bren Zan's face suddenly changed greatly, his fists were clenched, and he said viciously: "What did you say? ”

"The general knows what to say." Guo Zhong took out a piece of silk paper from his sleeve and handed it to Brunzan Blade, and then said calmly: "This is the list of all the Tubo nobles that the Lu clan has already wooed, the general will see it himself." ”

Brunzan Blade immediately picked up the list, and just by looking at it, his face turned completely gloomy.

These people were the leaders of various local states and cities outside of the Logos.

These people either have enmity with the Gar family, or have great interest disputes with the Gar family, and the Gar family is also trying their best to win them over, and these people are now all under the banner of the Lu family...... No, they belong to Zamp.

Brenzan Blade is now completely clear, these people are the hostile faction of the Tagar family through and through.

"Now that the prime minister is dead, the vice minister is still here, but if the deputy minister is also dead, what does the general think he would do without the Lu family?" Guo Zhong said these words again, and Brenzan's face sank completely.

On the death of Qinling, although the news is still not known to Luo Zhi, but the defeat of Qinling has made many people start to move.

Although Zanxiruo temporarily replaced the prime minister with the military power, he had actually ceded a lot of rights to the royal family.

If Zan Xi is defeated again in the hands of the king of Nanchang, then ......

"No, how can my eldest brother be defeated?" Brunzan raised his head sharply and stared at Guo Zhong deadly.

Guo Zhong smiled calmly and said: "That king of Nanchang, although he killed Wushuang, but in fact, in the Tang Dynasty, his strength to defend the city is still on top of the killing, attacking Naqu from Luo more than seven hundred miles, and he may still have a slight upper hand now, but winter is coming soon." ”

Brunzan's face was completely gloomy.

Yes, winter is coming soon.

Although Tibet is warmer than the north of Tanggula Mountain, it is definitely not much better, and it is a plateau after all.

Not to mention the south of the Tang Jiangnan, even Chang'an Luoyang is not comparable to them, but they are stronger in places like Qamdo and Maduo.

As soon as winter comes, it will be cold and freezing immediately, and how to not talk about the siege, the transportation of grain and grass is a big problem.

In winter, they attack the fortified city, and their difficulty is several times higher than that of normal days.

In case, in case the eldest brother is also defeated.

Brunzan suddenly raised his head calmly, looked at Guo Zhong, and said firmly: "I won't do anything, at least before that king of Nanchang defeats my eldest brother, he doesn't want to use me, that incident back then ......"

"I don't know what happened back then." Guo Zhong directly interrupted the Bren Zanji, and then said calmly: "This time, I didn't want to persuade the general at one time, but I just hoped that the general could be careful, be careful of the queen mother, maybe she will beg the Tang Dynasty for peace when she comes." ”

Brenzan suddenly raised his head and stared at Guo Zhong in disbelief.

Seeing Guo Zhong sneering lightly: "The general thinks that if there is no Lu clan to beg for peace, then what will she give to Datang as a token of peace?" ”

Brenzan seemed to have thought of something impossible, and his breathing was unusually heavy.

"Nine hundred years ago, during the Warring States period in the Central Plains, Qin and Zhao competed, Qin won and Zhao lost, but there was the power of a war, at that time, the king of Zhao wanted to seek peace, and in the end, Zhao Xiang sent the head of Li Mu, a famous general of Zhao State, and the general was careful." Guo Zhong gave his hand, and then slowly retreated.

Brenzanblade sat there, his face already very gloomy.

Famous general, god of war.

The Gar family.

……

On the wrong river, more than a dozen huge official ships slowly headed east.

Li Xuan, dressed in black clothes and black armor, looked at Wang Dezhen on the side with a calm smile, and asked, "Uncle thinks that Brunzan will move?" ”

Wang Dezhen, who was dressed in a scarlet robe, looked at the countless black-armored cavalry on the south bank of the Yangtze River, shook his head slightly, and said, "Everything still depends on the battle between Dashuai and Zanxiruo."

If this battle can really be won, then after that, even if the Brenzan blade is not moved, we will still be able to win some of the Logo, but the losses will be greater. ”

Li Xuan's smile retracted and fell silent.

After a while, he couldn't help but sigh lightly and said: "What my uncle said is extremely true, Xuan has already asked for the transfer of troops from Jiangnan, if we can establish a water division in Tubo, then the Nu River, the Luo River, and the Brahmaputra River water system will become our biggest helpers."

At that time, the whole of Tibet will only be just around the corner, and there is no need for the help of the Brenzan blade. ”

"But time, what you care about most is time, you have to completely settle on Tibet next year, we all know what you are thinking, but you have to be prepared in your heart, once the calculation is wrong...... Therefore, you can't rush and come steadily. Wang Dezhen looked at Li Xuan deeply.

"Thank you uncle for your advice, I understand." Li Xuan gave his hand to Wang Dezhen seriously.

Wang Dezhen's words were like an empowerment, like a slap in the face, which gradually calmed Li Xuan's somewhat restless mood recently.

On the death of Qinling, Li Xuan also began to get a glimpse of the opportunity of the destruction of the city.

He couldn't help but be excited, but now that he revisited the whole thing, things might not go as smoothly as he thought.

Of course, there are many things that Wang Dezhen doesn't know, but the current sobriety can make Li Xuan see a lot of things that he has overlooked.

Behind him, more than 20 warships were full of the first batch of military rations after the autumn that Wang Dezhen transported from Changzhou.

With this batch of military rations, they can hold out in Naqu for at least a month.

Not counting the local food, not counting the local people, these are the military rations of tens of thousands of troops for a month.

In addition, a large amount of ordnance will be brought from Cuona Lake.

These are all built by Li Xuan to let Wei Hongji mine Tubo ore in Cuona Hubei.

The ones used are all Tibetan locals.

And all they paid was some newly built wooden houses, enough food for three meals.

They still grow their own food.

Now Li Xuan has greatly won the hearts of the people and stabilized public opinion.

……

"Uncle is here this time, things around the song can be faster." Li Xuan looked at the gate of Naqu City.

There, countless people were digging ditches at the gates of the city, and these ditches would soon be connected to the Tso Na River and become a wider moat.

When Li Xuan first attacked the city, the moat here became a key road for Li Xuan's fleet to come and go at will.

Now that he occupies the city, if the Tubo people want to retake it, they really have to ask him well, and the arrows in his hands are not good.

"Harvesting grain and grass, hoarding warehouses, and compiling household registrations are indeed the work of the household department." Wang Dezhen shook his head a little funny.

He didn't expect that he had arrived in Tibet, and he couldn't hide from these things in the account opening department.

"In addition, there are also matters of intermarriage between soldiers and local people, and my uncle has to take care of it." As soon as Li Xuan spoke, Wang Dezhen looked at Li Xuan with some anger and said, "Dashuai, this is using Dezhen as a long history. ”

"These are the real family backgrounds of Luo Dao, and if my uncle doesn't do it, then I'm afraid I'll have to do it himself." Li Xuan shook her head slightly, looking like she didn't want to wade into this troubled water.

Wang Dezhen wanted to say something, but in the end he couldn't.

He is a household servant, so he naturally knows the importance of these grains, grass, household registration, and marriage to a local government.

To put it mildly, mastering these things is equivalent to mastering everything in a place.

Li Xuan is a person who has done local driving and stabbing history, so he naturally knows the taboos in this, so he tries not to interfere as much as possible.

Especially after Wang Dezhen arrived.

"Then these will be taken over by Dezhen, and the county prince of Langya will be in charge of military affairs." Wang Dezhen nodded slightly, and the matter was settled.

"That's very good." Li Xuan's eyes looked at the south bank of the Naqu River and said: "Now, Zanxiruo's army has arrived in Dangxiong County, and now it is gradually moving north, and our strength is gradually gathering, now it depends on when they will kill them." ”

"This time, we have to defend not only Dangxiong, but also the camp of Naqu Lake, Amdo City, Bangor, Nie Rong, Suoxian, such as and other places, if Zanxi says that it is not good, it will be centered on besieging Nagqu, and then divide troops to capture other places, especially Cuona Lake, which is our throat."

Wang Dezhen raised his eyes to look at Li Xuan, and said with a worried face: "Is the big handsome ready?" ”

"No problem." Li Xuan smiled calmly and said: "On defending the city, Xuan still has some experience, widening the river is itself a defensive situation, it is difficult for the Tubo people to break through this pass, and we want to break them, in fact, it depends on the timing." ”

"What kind of timing?" Wang Dezhen asked with unusually keen intent.

Li Xuan smiled, shook his head and said: "Of course, it is the problem of the back road of Tubo, in addition to the current contradictions between the royal family and the Gar family, there is another problem in Tubo. ”
