Ge Luofeng nodded and said, "What Aiqing said is reasonable. What if the Tang army immediately attacked the city or turned to meet the Tibetan army? ｣

Zheng Hui smiled and said: "My Taihe city has high walls and tens of thousands of elite soldiers, just won a while, morale is high, and in a hurry, the Tang army will never be able to capture it. However, we must be careful of the Tang army's treacherous ways, sending spies to infiltrate, raise fire and cause chaos, and win the city gate. ｣

Ge Luofeng said, "What if the spies are involved? ｣

Zheng replied: "At present, it needs to be strictly controlled, all the people who fled are gathered in one place, and the people in the city are ordered to stay at home, not to enter and leave at will, and violators will be immediately beheaded. Our army must send more men to all the important places, and the gates of each city must not be opened without the king's decree, and those who cause chaos and confuse the people will be immediately beheaded. Even if those who are allowed to infiltrate the city so that they cannot act freely and cannot deliver information, they will not be able to cause harm. ｣

Ge Luofeng nodded and said, "What Qing said is very reasonable. ｣

Zheng Hui continued: "As for the Tang army, if it turns to meet the Tibetan reinforcements, our army will go out of the city, attack it, and become a two-sided attack, then the Tang army will definitely lose the battle at both ends. ｣

Ge Luofeng stroked his palms and smiled: "Aiqing's words, as much as possible to relieve my doubts, I have Aiqing, sit back and relax." ｣

Zheng Huiqian thanked him: "Wechen is just doing his best, and he doesn't dare to take credit, and there is another matter for my lord to think about. ｣

Ge Luofeng said, "Please say something. ｣

Zheng replied: "Today, our army slaughtered the wounded soldiers of the Tang army, Weichen thinks that this move is inappropriate, killing the wounded soldiers of the Tang army will only attract a sea of blood and revenge, and the killing is too much, which will hurt the reputation of our Nanzhao. If the Tang generals are captured, they can not only get a ransom in exchange for our prisoners, but also leave a way to retreat when they reconcile with the Tang State in the future. Taking a step back, even if these captives were sold into slavery, they would cover the war costs and replenish the treasury. May our Lord ponder. ｣

Ge Luofeng said: "What Aiqing said is very true, very true. I immediately ordered the generals not to kill the prisoners and wounded without permission, Aiqing, you say okay? ｣

Zheng Huixi said: "My lord is benevolent, righteous and wise, Nanzhao is lucky, and his subjects are lucky. ｣

It was the night monarch and the minister who talked about the light of the day, and Ge Luofeng secretly praised Zheng Hui, no problem.

Two days after the battle in the north of the city, Luo Feng, the king of Nanzhao, received a battle post from the envoy.

The battle post named the Tang Army's vanguard general to conquer the south, and Luo Duohan, the general of the Southern Zhao Xiaorui.

Ge Luofeng convened all the generals to discuss, and Cao Mu Ruohe, the head of the Qingping official, said: "The territory of the Tang Kingdom is vast, and there are many capable people, and it must be completely certain that General Luo's martial arts have seen it but dare to come to challenge it by name, and we must not ignore it. General Luo has already defeated many Tang generals before, and his prestige has been established, so why should he be an unknown general of the Tang State, risking his life, if there is negligence, it will also be a loss for the country! I don't want to take it lightly! Don't go out lightly! ｣

Yu Liangxian, the official of Qingping Cao, immediately played: "Doctor Mu is right, there are many talented people in the Tang Kingdom, and they are also wise and resourceful, treacherous and cunning, even more than my Nanzhao, if there is a scheme, how can it be deserved? The Tibetan reinforcements will arrive soon, and our army has won the battle steadily, so why should we attack easily and lose the generals in vain. May our Lord be thoughtful. ｣

All the civil officials of Nanzhao nodded yes.

However, the generals of Nanzhao showed a look of indignation.

Wu Zhongying, the fierce general of Nanting, stepped forward and said, "My lord is wise, the Tang Kingdom is calling for war, how should we wait? Two days ago, we were killing the Tang State lost its armor and abandoned its armor, which boosted morale, if the Tang Army challenged this time, we would be afraid of not fighting, and we would call the Tang Army laugh in vain, and also lose our own morale. ｣

Beiting Xiao's general Ji also played: "My Nanzhao hero is by no means inferior to the Tang general, cutting chickens with a knife, the young general is willing to fight on behalf of General Luo, and he will definitely leave no piece of armor killed by these Tang dogs. ｣

All the military generals of Nanzhao asked for battle, and the civil officials exchanged their heads and ears, expressing their opinions, and there was a lot of noise on the main hall when they ascended.

Most of the civil officials and a small number of military generals tried their best to take a steady approach, hoping not to fight, hold the city steadily, and wait until the Tibetan reinforcements arrived, and then attack from both sides to break the enemy under the city.

However, the brave generals in the palace all hope to fight with the Tang army, the reason is that not to fight will damage the prestige and morale of the army, on the other hand, they also hope to establish their military exploits and win rewards.

Ge Luofeng was really indecided, and couldn't help but look back at Qiao Yingchang, the official of Qingping, and Zheng Zheng, the deputy privy envoy.

Qiao Yingchang coughed, stroked his long beard and stepped forward and said, "The old minister's meaning is the same as that of Doctor Mu, it is best to defend the city, reduce damage, and defeat the Tang army at the lowest cost. ｣

Ge Luofeng then looked at Zheng Hui, Zheng Hui winked, and didn't want to express his opinion in public, so Ge Luofeng didn't ask anymore.

Luo Duohan stepped forward and said, "If the country is in trouble, why spare your life? Tang will be rude, how can he and them be rampant, my king and the marshals must not worry about me, I have my own strategy to break the enemy, and I will let these Tang dogs go and never return. Moreover, regardless of victory or defeat, the Tang army can be dragged down, and it will be beneficial to our army, so what is the gain or loss of personal reputation, the big husband is loyal and brave to seek the country, why is he afraid of life and death? Our Lord need not be anxious! ｣

Seeing that his ugly face was full of the brilliance of bravery and self-confidence, Ge Luofeng immediately became strong and immediately called the messenger to approve the next day's battle.

After the civil and military officials dispersed, Ge Luofeng left Zheng Hui and summoned him alone.

Ge Luofeng said, "Aiqing, please speak bluntly. ｣

Zheng replied, "Your Majesty, according to your subordinates, the king's handling is very appropriate, and there are three major benefits to such a disposition. ｣

Ge Luo Fengqi said, "What are the three major benefits, I would like to hear them in detail. ｣

Zheng replied: "Accepting the challenge of the Tang State can boost morale, but also delay the enemy's siege, which is a benefit, if defeated by the Tang warriors, the impact on morale is limited, and the city can still be defended. But the victory over the Tang warriors can boost morale This is the second benefit, and then the most important point, if our army defeats the Tang army independently, it can reduce the influence of Tubo on our Nanzhao, Tubo is greedy and strong far better than the Tang State, and our alliance with it can be said to be a last resort. Our Nanzhao army can attack lightly or severely, between the light and heavy, the full power is in me, the Tubo army is brave and brutal, not controlled by our army, the killing must be heavy, and the grudge with the Tang State must be deep. If the Tang State is defeated by the Tubo alone, then our Nanzhao must be subject to the Tubo, which is the next policy, if the Tubo Nanzhao coalition army defeats the Tang army, then our Nanzhao still has room to speak, this is the middle policy. If our army defeats the Tang army independently, the influence of Tibet on us will be reduced, and it will be the best policy for me to fight and make peace with the Tang State in the future. This is the third benefit. May I be the king of Mingjian. ｣

Ge Luofeng laughed and said, "Aiqing, I am far-sighted, I have no worries, I will be entrusted with important tasks in the future, and there are many places to rely on!" ｣

Zheng Hui humbly retreated and arched his hand: "Weichen just did his duty, and did not dare to trespass, hoping that my king would consider it. ｣
