"You're cunning. Ma Sui sneered meaningfully.

"Or ......," Li Shimin's voice changed. "What are you waiting for?"

"It's a matter of military secrets, do you think I'll answer?" Ma Sui smiled slyly.

"Heh, this is also worthy of being called confidential!" Li Shimin laughed disapprerovingly and said, "If you don't want to answer, then I'll answer myself." You're waiting for Trisong Detsen. As long as he acts, you will have a chance. When the time comes, Xichuan will be attacked on the back and abdomen, which will be of great benefit to you. So, you've been waiting. ”

Ma Sui stared at Li Shimin quietly. Motioned for him to continue.

Li Shimin said eloquently: "It's a pity that you are about to run out of patience after waiting for half a month, and this time has never come." Because, Trisong Detsen, like you, is also waiting for you to do it first. Thereupon. The two of you stood still, and the battle situation was in a stalemate. ”

Ma Sui sneered nonchalantly, "Okay." Even if you're telling the truth. What does that have to do with your so-called great wisdom?"

"Of course it does. Li Shimin immediately replied, "Both of you are watching the soldiers and horses and refuse to leave, and if the stalemate continues for a long time, how can Xichuan afford to spend it? One day, Xichuan will fall." Tens of millions of people have been poisoned ever since. Isn't the court going to take me? Then I'll do it myself. Isn't it a great wisdom to lose one of me and save thousands of people?"

"Oh, clever words. Ma Sui sneered disdainfully and said, "You don't have to find so many high-sounding reasons for yourself. I know you're here to be a lobbyist this time. It's a pity that you, a lobbyist, will soon be escorted to Chang'an and become a traitor accused by thousands of people, and you will be stinking for thousands of years. ”

Li Shimin sneered at each other: "And you, Ma Sui, will also become a big hero and be famous for eternity?"

"Of course. ”

"You're wrong!" Li Shimin raised his voice and shouted, "You will become a sinner through the ages and be scolded by eternity!"

Ma Sui is still leisurely: "I don't think so." It doesn't matter how loud you scream. ”

"Then you listen now, I'll tell you why. Li Shimin's expression became cold, "Since the king arrived in Xichuan, he has clashed with Trisong Detsen several times and won one after another. Since then, he has formed a life-and-death enmity with Trisong Dezan. To put it arrogantly, as long as Xichuan is here, it is impossible for Chisong Dezan to step into the territory of Xichuan for half a step. Now, Ma Sui, Generalissimo Ma, has taken down this king and is going to be sent to Chang'an. This is great news for Trisong Detsen. Xichuan lacks the backbone, and An can not be chaotic? Chisong Dezan is bound to capture Xichuan in one go, and drive straight into the Central Plains. I know that you have a strong ability to lead troops to fight. But will you be able to take over Xichuan in a very short period of time, and then resist the crazy attack of Trisong Detsen? It's not that I underestimate you, you will definitely not be able to do it!"

"Go ahead and see what you can say. Ma Sui sneered unabated.

Li Shimin also unceremoniously continued: "In this war, the three parties are originally checking and balancing each other, and whoever makes a mistake first will be defeated. If Nishikawa loses this king, it will be a disaster. When the time comes, naturally I will no longer be able to stop your Ma Sui's attack, and of course I will not be able to resist Chisong Dezan. If it's a good idea. You drove all the way to Chengdu, but at that time, it is very likely that Trisong Detsen also arrived in Chengdu and occupied half of Xichuan. Then you will fight him to the death in the land of Xichuan. When the time comes, it will only be tens of millions of people in Shu who will suffer. Generalissimo Ma, you have captured this king and returned to Beijing to receive the reward, the emperor is of course Longyan Dayue. But. You have also done a great favor to Chi Song Dezan invisibly, how different are you from a traitor? Can you escape the tens of millions of people in Shu who point at your backbone and scold you? Can you not let the people of the world and future generations spit on you endlessly? If you are not a sinner, then it is really unreasonable. After that, Li Shimin leisurely poured himself a glass of wine and drank it slowly.

Ma Sui's expression changed. He glared at Li Shimin with some annoyance. Gritted his teeth and whispered, "That's why you dare to enter my barracks alone, right? You think I don't dare to do anything to you at all, right?"

"Tell me the truth......," Li Shimin said proudly, "No one dares to bear the reputation of a traitor! When the time comes, the emperor can spare you, but the world can't spare you. ”

"You may not be too big for yourself!" Ma Sui scolded with some anger. But in my heart, I secretly said: This person. What a great geocentric technique!

"Calm down, be realistic, Generalissimo Ma!" Li Shimin said in a loud voice. "I am willing to risk my life and death to come to meet you in the barracks, not to send me to death, let alone to listen to your curses. ”

Ma Sui stared at Li Shimin unwillingly for a long time, took a long breath, and said, "You won." You're right. Dou Wenchang urged my class teacher to return to the dynasty countless times and dedicate you to the emperor to receive the reward and life, but I didn't. I know, as long as I take you away. Shu will be in chaos. At that time, Trisong Detsen was able to easily defeat the people of Xichuan and begin to sweep through the Central Plains. Although the general only needs to fulfill his mission, he should not care about other things. But I, Ma Sui, ask myself that I am also a Han with bloody liver and gallbladder. I don't want to see the people of Datang. Such a calamity. I don't really care about the scolding and fame. I was just...... Don't want to see something like that happen. ”

"So I've always thought. Ma Dashuai is a very smart person. Li Shimin was overjoyed in his heart, and praised Ma Sui, "If you were just a simple-minded martial artist, I wouldn't be here today." ”

Ma Sui sneered unappreciatively: "Having said that, I have never had any good feelings for you, let alone wanted to let you go back." I can only say that my thoughts coincide with yours. I admit that you are a brilliant commander-in-chief, level-headed and sharp-eyed. However, you can't dictate my thoughts yet. In my eyes, you are still the traitor who did not submit to you. It is my duty to catch you and ask you for your guilt. ”

Li Shimin smiled helplessly: "You actually believe that this king wants to rebel?"

"It's not something I'm thinking about. Ma Sui played an official tone, "The emperor said that if you want to rebel, then you will rebel." I don't think about anything else. ”

Li Shimin couldn't help laughing: "So...... You're at least half a simple-minded martial artist. Say, you don't want to take me to Chang'an, and you don't want to let me go. What are you going to do? How can you save the West now?

Ma Sui sneered proudly and said, "Coerce the King of Han to order Xichuan, who dares to disobey in Shudi?!"

"Nice idea. Li Shimin smiled back and said, "I have to say that this place is indeed a very reasonable way." As long as I am in your hands, Shu will indeed fall from the wind. However, has Generalissimo Ma ever remembered the events of the Three Kingdoms Clock Meeting?"

"What do you remember?"

Li Shimin smiled and said: "Zhong will cut Shu, and he is about to succeed." But he had a different heart and wanted to coerce Liu Chan and make Shu land and establish himself as the master. As a result, he died with Jiang Wei. ”

"But I'm not Zhonghui. I don't want to be self-reliant, and I don't want to be different

Li Shimin laughed loudly: "You say you don't want to be self-reliant, do people believe that you don't want to? You say that there is no dissent, does the emperor believe that you have no dissent? To give a simple example: this king." You're a smart person, you don't need me to say much. You could think I'm sowing discord, but that's just the truth - this king has never done anything out of the ordinary, let alone made a private dragon robe to stand on his own. This is just a very simple and lame trick, but the emperor is convinced. Do you want to know the reason? It's very simple! That's because my Li Yi's merits and fame are too great. The Emperor was frightened and timid, so he found a reason to destroy me. As long as you, Ma Sui, dare to do something to blackmail the King of Han to order Xichuan, no matter whether you succeed or not, your death will not be far off! You don't even have the blood of the Li family of this king. It's much easier to get rid of you than it is to get rid of this king!"

"You!--treacherous villain, actually provoking the monarch and minister!" Ma Sui stood up angrily, and pulled out his knife and pointed it at Li Shimin.

Li Shimin also stood up without flinching, and met his blade, and said Lang Lang: "Calm down, be smart." You know that I'm not talking nonsense, but I just don't want to believe it. Or rather...... As I said at the beginning, you can't believe it!"

Ma Sui's face turned a little red, his gray beard trembled, and the tip of his knife trembled.

The two confronted each other like this for a long time, and Ma Sui suddenly laughed out loud and put the knife back into its sheath.

"You're really cunning! Ben Shuai almost fell for your radical tactics!" Ma Sui sat down with laughter, stroked his gray beard and drank his wine, and said calmly, "So far, I really admire your courage and eloquence." But...... It's a pity that you still haven't convinced me. I, Ma Sui, will only be loyal to the monarch and patriotic throughout my life, and will never be in the company of a traitor like you. ”

"You're wrong. I never wanted to be with you. There are ways that are different, and they do not conspire with each other. Li Shimin also sat down and said leisurely, "The purpose of my coming here is very simple. It is for our common interests -- to fight against foreign enemies, to win this war, to reduce disasters and disasters for the Tang Dynasty, and to seek happiness and longevity for the people. You clearly know in your heart that this is a completely avoidable war and disaster! The fate of the Tang Dynasty is already in trouble, so why do we still have to fight incessantly and let foreign enemies have a chance to serve? I don't want to be a sinner in China and history. At the same time, I don't want to believe that Generalissimo Ma Sui is a villain who disregards the lives of the world for his own vanity and self-interest. You know what I'm talking about, right?"

Ma Sui's eyes were like torches, and two blade-like eyes went straight to Li Shimin's face, and he said calmly: "You finally told your true intentions?"

Li Shimin replied quietly: "Yes." The real purpose of my trip is to date you to deal with Trisong Detsen. He is the real enemy of our China. And the misunderstanding between me and the emperor and the court can be resolved through other ways. The reason why I turned back to Xichuan halfway and didn't go to Chang'an is that frankly I did know the news that the emperor wanted to take me. I'm also human, and I'm afraid of death. And I don't want to die so unclear. What's more, I expected that Trisong Detsen would definitely take advantage of this opportunity to attack Nishikawa. Later, my expectations were fully confirmed. This is enough to prove that these actions taken by the emperor against me are inseparable from the Tibetan people. Otherwise, how could Trisong Detsen act so quickly? I don't think you can understand such an obvious thing without me having to explain more. The emperor was determined to destroy me and would not give me any chance to explain. I had no choice but to fight back - because I couldn't just die worthless. At least until then, it's my responsibility to keep Nishikawa safe. ”

Ma Sui's expression was still calm, and he said slowly: "This is your most heartfelt voice, right? No matter how perverse and absurd you are, you are still the one who grasps the overall situation." The old man has to admit that you do stand taller and see farther than everyone else. But have you thought about it? Not everyone can understand your good intentions. These actions of yours make you walk on thin ice, and you may lose your life at any time, thus losing all your achievements. Is it worth the risk?"

"There is a way to seek preciousness in danger. Li Shimin smiled self-deprecatingly and said. "I'm a competitive person. If I only want to be undefeated, I have no less than ten methods. But to win, the only way to do this is to take risks. There is no risk, where the harvest comes from. ”

"Is this the essence of your repeated victories?" Ma Sui said. "You tell me the truth. If I really lead the army to attack the Sword Pavilion, how sure are you that you will not lose your strength, or defeat me?" Li Shimin laughed a few times, was quiet for a long time, and then said seriously: "If you must listen to the truth. Then I might as well say it bluntly. Your 150,000-strong army is indeed very powerful, and I also know the combat effectiveness of the Divine Army. If you want to take down the Sword Pavilion by attacking head-on...... It's not that I'm boasting. Though I have only 30,000 men, you have no chance. But if I want to fight my way out of the city and save the tide of the battle and defeat you, it will not be easy. At most, there is only a 30% chance of winning. ”

Ma Sui sneered a little unconvinced: "I can believe that you can defend the Sword Pavilion Heavenly Danger." You have only 30,000 horses, and you boast that you can defeat my army of 150,000...... This is a bit appalling. ”

Li Shimin smiled confidently: "Trisong Dezan, who commanded an army of 300,000 in the past, doesn't believe it either. But I did. On the battlefield, nothing is impossible. The key is ...... We must not only believe in miracles, but also know how to cherish the opportunity to create miracles. I would never say. I don't have a chance to win. No matter what kind of adversity and desperation I face, I will always believe that there will be a 30% chance of victory. This is the case when guarding Mukden, this is the case when recovering Chang'an, this is the case when conquering Qishan, and this is the case when repelling Trisong Detsen and facing your flanking attack again. The same is true. As a commander-in-chief, you must not lose confidence anytime and anywhere. Otherwise. For the army under my command, it was a disaster of ruin. ”

"Unexpected......," Ma Sui shook his head, stroked his gray beard and said, "I have been taught a lesson by a young man like you, who is nearly sixty years old in my life. I've known for a long time that I can't treat you like an idle person. Now it seems that I still underestimate you a little. It's not that I underestimated your ability to arrange troops, but I didn't expect that you are not only an excellent commander, but also have a vision of the overall situation, and an extraordinary mind and courage. It seems that King Han's stubbornness is not accidental. The emperor's suspicion and jealousy are also understandable...... You are Wen Taowu and have a strategic mind about the city, far surpassing the emperor and the crown prince. How can such a person not be treated very differently if he exists in the world?"

"There's no need to discuss my affairs now. Whether I am loyal or traitorous has my own opinions. On the emperor's side, I will also have an explanation. Li Shimin changed the topic and said, "Let's get down to business, let's talk about the purpose of my visit." I believe you have figured it out, now you can neither escort me to Chang'an, nor can you coerce the king of Han to order Xichuan. You can only put me back. So, you might as well go back and think about my mention. Let the Shence Army and the Jianchuan Army make peace and attack Trisong Dezan together to fight against foreign humiliation. Only in this way can the current crisis be truly resolved. It's not the Xichuan crisis, and it's not the crisis of my Li Yi alone. It is the crisis of the Chinese clan and the Tang Dynasty. As for the purpose of your trip, I think that when Trisong Detsen is resolved, there will naturally be a solution. ”

"What solution will there be?" Ma Sui sneered and said, "When the time comes, will you obediently go back to Chang'an with me?" In the end, I was just taken advantage of by you, but I still have to be charged with conspiracy with the thief." The whole thing is tossed according to the way you said, I can't get any benefit, and I will be dragged into the water by you. You say, would I, Ma Sui, really be stupid enough to go crazy and do such a thing with you?"

"There are naturally no benefits such as real money being promoted to an official and making a fortune. However, from the standpoint of the Chinese nation and the Tang Empire, we can all reap huge benefits. Li Shimin smiled deeply and said, "My words are finished." Which is more important and which is right and which is wrong, I think you Ma Dashuai can distinguish it clearly. What to choose. You can also make up your own minds. You and I are both smart people, and we understand people. There are some things that you don't need to pick too clearly. What to do, you decide. The wine is almost drunk, and the king should go back to sleep in the cage. ”

Li Shimin finished drinking the last glass of wine, stood up, and walked slowly towards the tent. Ma Sui watched him, but this time he didn't stop him.

King Han left, and Ma Sui sat in the handsome seat. Motionless. The lamp oil in the oil jar is about to burn dry, and the first line is swaying. Ma Sui's bronzed face has an unpredictable expression, and his thick eyebrows are deeply locked.

It was late at night, and there were already a few bangs in the barracks. The soldiers were all resting, except for a few guards who walked around the camp. Ma Sui was still alone in the tent, pacing back and forth with his hands on his back.

Long......

He looked up, and there was no blue sky, only the gray roof of the handsome tent. Stretch out a hand and caress the long gray beard. muttered to himself: "For the sake of ...... Datang ?!......"

Early the next morning, the carriage of the iron carriage was opened. A loud bang woke up Li Shimin, who was sleeping with a hangover.

"His Royal Highness the King of Han. The handsome man is invited!" the pawn was actually polite. And the toiletries were moved to the front of the carriage.

Li Shimin stretched his waist and yawned, laughed a few times and said, "Ma Dashuai is really hospitable." ”

After washing, Li Shimin followed the pawn to the handsome tent.

Ma Sui still sat in the handsome position with a golden knife, but his face was obviously very haggard, and his eyes were bloodshot. It can be seen that he must have stayed up late.

"Your Highness, please be seated. Ma Sui supported his waist with one hand and pointed to Ma Za with the other, motioning for Li Shimin to take a seat. This is the usual etiquette in the Tang Army. Even if the emperor comes, he will be the commander. Generally, it is only counted in this way.

Li Shimin returned the salute with his fists and sat down.

"I thought about it all night. Ma Sui's voice was a little hoarse. After all, he is nearly sixty years old, and after staying up all night, he is obviously a little old.

"Hmm. Li Shimin nodded, signaling that he was listening.

"Although it is still difficult for me to identify with you subjectively, and it is difficult for me to accept you as an ally. But ......" Ma Sui frowned and said with determination. "I promise you!"

Li Shimin's heart was throbbing and ecstatic, but the expression on his face was still calm: "Thank you." ”

"But!" Ma Sui said loudly, "you must give me a promise. If we can defeat Trisong Detsen together, how will you give an explanation to the Emperor in the end? You have to admit that I am helping you. And in the end, I may be dragged into the water by you. Such an unkind thing should not be done by the world-famous Han King. ”

Li Shimin looked at Ma Sui with a silent face: "What kind of promise do you want me to give you?"

Ma Sui stared at Li Shimin coldly, and said word by word: "After the matter is completed, follow me back to Chang'an." ”

Li Shimin frowned, and also looked at Ma Sui with his eyes. The two of them looked at each other like two lightning bolts fighting.

After a while, Li Shimin's lips moved, and he said slowly: "Okay, I promise you!"

"Happy!" Ma Sui slapped the handsome table and said loudly, "In this case, we can be regarded as having an agreement! King Han, my Ma Sui has never been convincing in my life, and now you are half." Hopefully, at the end of the day, you'll be able to keep your promises. I hope to work with the hero Han Wang, instead of fading the treacherous villains who deceive the world. ”

Li Shimin nodded slowly and solemnly: "As you wish." ”

"When it comes to this, it should be enough. Ma Sui stared at Li Shimin and nodded, then changed his words and said, "Okay, come and tell me about your specific marching plan." ”

"Good!"

The two of them went to the big map together.

Li Shimin told Ma Sui the marching plan that had already been made in his chest: "The biggest weakness and key point of Trisong Dezan lies in the Qiangshui area. It is the most important place in the old land of Tuyuhun. It is also the rear where he is most afraid of problems. If you can pass through Wenzhou and make a rapid march between the mountains and mountains to attack and kill Diezhou, you can succeed in one qiē. ”

Ma Sui said, "You mean, let me surprise you?"

"Not bad!" Li Shimin said, "choose the elite and travel lightly for a surprise attack." In the meantime, you might as well attack the sword gate. Seeing that my Sword Pavilion is launched, Trisong Detsen will definitely take action to attack Victoria. He could never have imagined that the two of us would reach a tacit understanding to attack him behind him. As long as you can take Diezhou, you can occupy the entire Qiangshui basin in one fell swoop. Trisong Detsen will become a rootless wanderer. In this big battle, the verdict is made. ”

Ma Sui's heart was shocked, and he stroked his gray beard and nodded: "Yes, very good...... It is indeed an unexpected and dangerous plan. As you said, I personally led 50,000 elite light soldiers to the north to bypass Wenzhou and attack Diezhou. At the same time, the Sword Pavilion also has to make a big noise here to make a life-and-death struggle. ”

"Not bad!"

Ma Sui smiled, looked at Li Shimin a little slyly and said, "But, aren't you afraid that I will really fight and really capture your Earth Sword Pavilion?" Or will you take advantage of my emptiness to take advantage of the situation to launch a big counterattack against me and take my lair and foundation?"

Li Shimin looked at Ma Sui with a straight face: "This is a matter of integrity and overall situation. I don't think we're all the ones who don't care about the big picture. ”

"Then......" Ma Sui's expression also became solemn and solemn, "I promise you!"

"High-five as an oath!" Li Shimin stretched out his hand. Ma Sui also raised his hand, and the two of them slapped three times in a row.

"You, what are you doing?!" Dou Wenchang suddenly broke in, and happened to see the two of them high-five.

Li Shimin glanced at him disdainfully, turned his head to Ma Sui and said, "Ma Dashuai, the matter is important, we will make up our minds." ”

Ma Sui also completely ignored Dou Wenchang's cunning, looked at Li Shimin with blazing eyes, nodded and said, "A word is a certainty!"

"Ma Sui!" Dou Wenchang almost jumped up, "You want to rebel with Li Yi?!"

"Someone!" Ma Sui shouted loudly, "Dou Wenchang roared at the military camp to slander the commander, pull me out, tie me up!"

Dou Wenchang screamed, scolded angrily, and struggled endlessly, but was still dragged out by a few guards who were as strong as oxen.

Li Shimin glanced at him and said, "After all, it's the emperor's person, don't go too far." ”

"Don't worry, Ben Shuai knows it. This kind of villain won't let him do anything bad. Ma Sui paused and said, "After the meal, King Han should return to the Sword Pavilion early." You and I can't delay for a moment. Tomorrow, I will order the adjutant general to order a group of soldiers and horses to attack the Sword Pavilion in detail. At the same time, the commander personally ordered elite troops to attack Diezhou. I hope that Your Highness will cooperate closely. ”

"Don't worry, definitely. Li Shimin nodded in agreement. The eyes of the two are facing each other, but there is an extra layer of sympathy in the middle. The two had a simple meal in the handsome tent, and Li Shimin asked to leave.

The pawn brought the green horse, Li Shimin turned over, turned around to Ma Sui and said, "Ma Dashuai, this king has taken his leave." When he triumphs, he will get drunk with you again. At that point, we will be able to drink equally. It turns out that your alcohol consumption is so good, this king doesn't dare to hold it up in front of you. The implication is obvious, Ma Sui is the opponent of the Han Dynasty.

Although Ma Sui didn't smile, there was a hint of kindness in his eyes. He clasped his fists and bowed and said, "In this way, Ben Shuai is looking forward to that day." Your Highness, let's go!"

"Please!" Li Shimin raised his horsewhip, and the green horse neighed in pain and galloped away outside the barracks. Dugu Fan remained silent, quietly riding a horse and following him.

The two of them left the camp of the Shence Army and turned around to look into the distance.

"I really don't know if you're a saint or a madman. Dugu Fan's always calm tone revealed a lot of incredibleness, "You have actually done such a thing." ”

Li Shimin smiled slightly and said, "In fact, there are many things, as long as you calm down and think carefully. It's not hard to see some clues. Everyone thought that my trip was dangerous, and that coming alone was tantamount to death. But once you see the core of the problem, it is not difficult to understand that the trip is not without the possibility of success. The key is to be sure to talk about Ma Sui's mind and attract him to come in the direction I want. ”

"If I were Ma Sui, I would have slaughtered you with one knife first, and I would have killed you in one hundred. Dugu Fan was obviously a little angry. For the past two days, he has been a little apprehensive. Now I'm completely out of trouble. I can't help but feel a little annoyed. It's a shame that he has been worrying about his safety, but he has long been confident.

Li Shimin smiled: "Let's go, we also have something big to do!"

The second horseman raised his horse's hooves and galloped towards the Sword Pavilion. Ma Sui was naturally busy in the barracks. More than 100,000 soldiers and horses are moving in full swing, just waiting for tomorrow to start the operation.

Du Huangsheng, Guo Gang and others stood at the head of Jiancheng in Jianmen. Everyone is anxious, and their days are like years. The king of Han has been gone for a day and a night, and no news has come. If there is a problem with this, Nishikawa is not finished?

The two riders came from afar, one red and one white were very eye-catching. Du Huangsheng's eyes were sour as he stared at that place. At this time, he shouted in surprise: "King Han! It is His Royal Highness the King of Han who has returned--quick, open the city gate quickly!"

The sergeants at the head of the city immediately rejoiced and erupted in cheers. The door was quickly opened. Li Shimin rode non-stop and ran in with Dugufan. Du Huangshang and the others greeted him in surprise and bowed down.

"Get up. Li Shimin said, "The matter is urgent, there is no time to gossip." You all come with me!"

Du Huangshang and the others were stunned for a moment, and they all followed behind the Han Wang's horse and ran to the conference hall. Li Shimin dismounted and entered the conference hall, and first asked someone to move out the military register. After Du Huangshang and others came. "Now, I tell you a few important things. ”

Du Huangshang and the others were still a little caught off guard, so they had to nod blankly.

"Zunsu, from today onwards, you are the Sword Pavilion Soldier and Horse Envoy. Li Shimin said. "Immediately, this king will lead 20,000 flying dragons back to Shuzhong. It's all up to you. Tomorrow. Ma Sui will send people to attack the Sword Pavilion, and when the time comes, you will have to defend the city. ”

"Huh?" Du Huangshang was stunned, and his mouth opened wide.

"Don't worry, remember what I said first. Li Shimin said, "I have already made an agreement with Ma Sui. When the time comes, he will only attack in detail, and of course, you can't fight to the death. Just try to make the noise as loud as possible. But don't cause casualties, and don't open the city gates to fight with the Shence army. This means that you only need to do superficial work. It's like a kabuki invited from home, singing and dancing are lively. ”

"Ah?!" Du Huangshang was stunned again, and her mouth opened wider.

"Still don't understand?" Li Shimin frowned impatiently.

"Understood...... Du Huangshang nodded suddenly, "It's just that the news came too suddenly, and I didn't come back to my senses at once." Your Highness, you are ...... Did Ma Sui agree to form an alliance with our army to deal with Trisong Detsen?"

"Yes!" Li Shimin stood up and said, "So, the core of the war immediately changed to Victoria. I have to go to Victoria right away to take charge of the big picture. It's not that I'm worried that Gao Gu won't be able to resist the offensive of Chisong Dezandi, in case Ma Sui succeeds in capturing Diezhou, I'm afraid that Gao Gu will be at a loss and miss the best fighter. Or an unnecessary misunderstanding with Ma Sui's army. So, I had to go there myself. Guo Gang, you stay behind to lead the remaining 10,000 flying dragon riders and Sword Pavilion defenders. Remember, one should be safe, and you should not make meritorious contributions to conflicts and frictions with the Shence army. This matter is extremely serious, and it is related to the fate of my Xichuan. You must not take it lightly

"Yes!" Guo Gang hugged his fists very seriously and agreed, feeling very comfortable in his heart: It was finally entrusted with reuse! Although it was just a joke, it could be regarded as a stand-by-one!

"Zunsu, Guo Gang, the Sword Pavilion will be handed over to you. Li Shimin said, "Without further ado, this king will set off immediately and rush to Victoria." I believe that if there is a disturbance here tomorrow, Trisong Dezan's side will soon receive the news, and he will also take action. I had to get to Victoria as soon as possible. This king is full of words, you should take care of yourself at your own discretion, and there will be a period in the future!"

"His Royal Highness King Han take care, there will be a period later!" Many people still didn't come back to their senses, and King Han, who had just entered the mansion, disappeared quickly. Fang Ci and Xu Tao, two young generals, were also taken away by him.

waited for Li Shimin to leave for a long time. Du Huangshang blinked his eyes and looked at Guo Gang, and said sneeringly: "General Guo, I'm ...... It's not a dream, is it? Ma Sui, that old stubborn man, actually agreed to cooperate with King Han?"

"Isn't it strange?" Guo Gang said with a smile, "I have followed King Han for a few years, and I have seen a lot of such things." If you don't do something unexpected and unbelievable. Then he would not be the king of Han. As long as there is the King of Han, everything can happen magically. Mr. Du, after a long time, you will understand. ”

"Yes?......" Du Huangshang nodded in astonishment, and walked slowly alone. While walking. While wrinkling his brows and thinking for a long time, he muttered that this is impossible, too weird......

At the same time, 20,000 flying dragon iron horsemen have followed King Han and galloped on the Shu Road. The dust that rolls up between the mountains and forests is like a hurricane. The brigade traveled day and night. Ran to Chengdu at the fastest speed.

In the early morning of the next day, more than 10,000 soldiers and horses of the Shence Army appeared in front of the Sword Pavilion. They shouted loudly with the beating of the giant drum, and launched a big attack on the Sword Pavilion. Meanwhile. The Tang army guarding the Sword Pavilion also beat the war drums and responded with a huge roar. The two sides of the people and horses are in the Sword Pavilion City, you roar at me, but no one climbs the ladder to attack the city, and no one releases arrows. After doing it for a long time, the soldiers of the Tang Army couldn't help but laugh.

It was the funniest war they'd ever been involved in.

In the middle of the night, just after a short rest, a large number of torches appeared in the Sword Pavilion again. The Shence Army also launched a night attack. The roars and drums of the night are even more terrifying, and can be heard clearly from dozens of miles away. This time. The Shence army also imposed martial law within dozens of miles, beware of a Tibetan spy who could watch the battle situation up close.

The drums of the Sword Pavilion shook the sky for days, shouting and killing endlessly. The news of the Sword Pavilion starting a war spread far and wide, and soon spread everywhere.

The hooves of Li Shimin and the others did not stop for a moment, and they reached the capital in a few days. They didn't have time to rest. Li Shimin didn't have time to go back to the Han Palace, to meet the two princesses who were pregnant with Liujia. The 20,000-strong army was resupplied and repaired for a while, and then rushed towards Victoria without stopping. The people of Chengdu saw the sudden return of the King of Han. I thought that the Sword Pavilion was lost, and the King of Han retreated to Chengdu. Li Shimin didn't give them much explanation, just told them to live as usual. Then, the grain and grass transported to the Sword Pavilion was reduced by a part, and Victoria sent some more.

Although Wei Gao and the others were a little confused, they didn't ask too much. 1.

On the banks of the Jinchuan River, the Dafu House of Trisong Detsen is being demolished. The huge tent slowly fell, and then was collected in a centralized manner. Trisong Detsen rode on his horse, and looked out in the southwest direction with some hesitation.

Shang Jiezan naturally didn't want to let go of this great opportunity to make a fool of himself, and said happily: "It's still Zampu who is the most clever and the most patient. After waiting for twenty days, he finally waited for Ma Sui to do it first. Li Yi is difficult to care about, Zampu is sitting on the fisherman's advantage!"

Chisong Dezan gently touched the mustache at the corner of his mouth, and sneered a little proudly: "This time, we must avenge the last arrow, take Victoria in one fell swoop, and wash Xichuan with blood." At present, Li Yi is in the Sword Pavilion and Ma Sui is maneuvering, and only a few shrimp soldiers and crabs in Victoria will resist stubbornly -- pass the order to go down and march towards Victoria! We must kill in front of the Xuanmen Pass within three days and rush to capture it in one go!"

"Yes!" Shang Jiezan seemed to have received the good news of victory, full of excitement.

The 150,000 Tibetan army rushed towards Victoria. "Your Highness, how did you get to Victoria?!" Gao Gu received the King of Han and the 20,000 army he led, and was stunned.

Li Shimin raised his hand and walked directly towards Xuanmen Pass: "I don't have time to explain." Trisong Detsen is about to be killed, how are you preparing?"

Gao Gu was stunned for a moment, and replied: "The rules and regulations of guarding the city are all done according to His Highness's orders, and they are not bad at all. Categorically there is no problem. ”

"That's fine. Li Shimin paused and said, "Take pen, ink, paper, and inkstone." I'm going to write a letter to Wu Yuanheng of Kang Tingchuan in the Eastern Female Kingdom. Later, you send a fast horse six hundred miles to send it urgently, and the sooner he receives it, the better. ”

"Yes......" Gao Gu became more and more confused.

Li Shimin sat down, and an urgent letter was swiped. The Xuanmen Gate opened and several fast horses galloped in the direction of the East Female Country.

After doing this qiē, Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, I was fast enough to rush back before the war in Victoria. At this time, he gave a brief explanation to Gao Gu, and Gao Gu suddenly realized, accompanied by a great surprise.
