The mid-marquis beside Xiao Yunhe shouted angrily: "Bold barbarian! Dare to call Lord Han by his name again! Don't kneel down and salute!"

Shang Tuer was stunned for a moment, and then sneered: "In your Chinese dialect, the envoys of the upper kingdom do not worship the king of the lower kingdom. What's more, it's just a little Han King. ”

Xiao Yunhe sneered quietly, raised his hand lightly, and said, "Come on, remove his knee for me." I'd like to see if the knees of the so-called envoys of the kingdom are more special. ”

"Yes!" several soldiers shouted in unison, and they were about to step forward and make a move.

Shang Tuer was frightened at this time, and shouted in panic: "Stop! Stop! You Han people themselves often say that the two countries are at war, and they will not be slaughtered!"

Xiao Yunhe couldn't help laughing: "Shang Tuerxi, right? Your Chinese language is really not as good as bullshit, it is simply an insult to the Chinese language." But what you say reminds me. For a brute like you, killing or beheading is a bit improper. With slaughter, it couldn't be more suitable. Now, this king wants to slaughter your knee first, and you can do it yourself!"

Shang Tuer vaguely understood the meaning of Xiao Yunhe's words, and his face turned white with anger. In Tibet, except for those from the Central Plains, he Shang Tuerxi has always been very talented, at least he can speak Chinese clearly. Otherwise, Trisong Detsen would not have sent him as an emissary. It's good now, but when I opened my mouth, I was ridiculed for a while, and I was compared to livestock.

Several soldiers shouted: "Get on your knees!"

Shang Tuerxi's face twitched, and he knelt down very unwillingly, touched his chest with one hand and saluted: "Tubo envoy Shang Tuerxi, meet the King of Han." ”

Xiao Yunhe sneered: "Get up." Someone comes, and the messenger is seated. ”

Chantur stood up depressedly, patted the dirt on his knees angrily, and said loudly: "We are not used to sitting on the Tang Army's horses. Give me soft felt, and I'll sit on the floor. ”

Xiao Yunhe looked at this proud and frivolous Tubo man. couldn't help laughing: "Then do you want to prepare another pot of barley wine or butter tea for you, and then call for playing a horse head qin?"

Shang Tuer was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood that the King of Han was obviously making fun of him, and said hatefully: "Then I will stand and speak—our Zampu has sent me to have something to say to the King of Han." ”

Xiao Yunhe looked at him indifferently: "Say it." I hope you can speak the latter words clearly and fluently. Otherwise, I'd rather you speak the Tibetan language. We have interpreters in our army. ”

Chantur was teased for a while, and his face was already a little red. He roared and shouted: "Zampu asked me to pass on the word: Tubo and Daqi were originally the countries of uncles and nephews. Zampu also didn't want the two countries to fight each other, and the lives were ...... Apply a coat of paint. As long as Li ...... The king of Han sent him back to Mongolia and Victoria, and compensated us for the 10,000 horses he had stolen from us. Compensate us with five million dollars. We in Tibet will not come to Xingshi to ask for sin. Otherwise, if the 300,000 army is killed, whether it is Dongnu Country or Xichuan, there will definitely be human beings...... Put on a coat of paint!"

When he finished yelling, almost everyone in the handsome tent, including Xiao Yunhe, in the mainland burst into laughter. Chantursi was confused and angry. "What are you laughing at?" he shouted, "I'm telling the truth!

Xiao Yunhe finally couldn't hold back a laugh and said, "It seems that the blood of half of the Han people in your body is also in vain. Dare to love you Tibetan people. They all like to scare people by applying paint to their bodies. However, although you can't say this clearly, I can understand it. Now, my reply is only one sentence, which I would like you to convey to Trisong Detsen. ”

"It's Trisong Zampu!" said Chantursi, very annoyed, "if you have anything to say, just say it!"

Xiao Yunhe stood up and walked in front of Shang Tuerxi. Staring into his eyes, he said, "The toad yawns, which is my evaluation and answer to Trisong Dezan. ”

Chantur frowned in confusion: "What does this mean?"

Xiao Yunhe smiled: "It's not interesting. That's my answer. If you don't understand, just report my words to Trisong Detsen. I believe that there will always be people in Tubo who can understand. ”

Shang Tuerxi suddenly came to his senses: "You, you actually insulted our Zampu! You will regret it! Our Zampu is not a toad, it is the god Fa Xiao Yunhe and the others on the plateau laughed again. Chantur is on the verge of madness. Xiao Yunhe said: "Shang Tuerxi, it's really tiring to talk to you. This king has no interest in talking nonsense with you now. If nothing else. You can fuck off now. Fuck off, do you understand?"

"I understand!" exclaimed Chantur angrily, "but I will not roll, I will ride my horse back!

The soldiers in the Chinese tent shouted in unison: "Get out!"

Shang Tuerxi and the others were shocked, annoyed but helpless out of the handsome account. Xiao Yunhe didn't want to embarrass them, and he wanted to ask them to pass on the detailed news here to the Tubo army. Therefore, when Shang Tuerxi and others walked in the barracks and looked around, the Tang soldiers did not stop them. Instead, let them go out of the customs post smoothly.

Chantur puffed up like a frog and slapped his horse and ran out of the sentry. Along the way, he kept shouting: "You will regret it, you will definitely regret it - 300,000 troops, I will kill you all!"

The soldiers of the Tang Army standing on the arrow tower laughed, and one of them shouted loudly: "The toad doesn't yawn, it's farting to the sky!"

Humiliated by this frivolous Chantour, the atmosphere in the barracks, which had always been a little nervous, was much more relaxed and lively. Xiao Yunhe did not dare to take it lightly, and ordered all the soldiers not to underestimate the enemy and be ready for battle.

At this time, the 30,000 troops of the Xu She people had already advanced to the vicinity of the mountain basin in the upper reaches of the Dajin River. The army is being reorganized and preparing to advance towards Victoria. Just as he was about to leave, he ran into Chantursi, who was returning from a negative mood.

Xu Sheren saw that Shang Tuerxi was like someone had been shaved by someone, and he was so angry that his face was green. He rushed into the military tent and roared loudly: "Xu Sheren, I order you to send troops immediately. Go and attack the sentry where Xiao Yunhe is sitting!"

"Orders?" Xu Sheren sneered, "You don't seem to be the Minister of Military Affairs, and Zampu didn't tell me to follow your orders." ”

Shang Tuer came to Xu Sheren's side, gritted his teeth and whispered hatefully: "But don't forget, the prime ministers of the three Shang clans are all my own uncle or master. You can save your life. It's all our Shang family protecting you. Now is your chance to make atonements. That Xiao Yunhe, who didn't know the height of the sky, actually only led a few thousand remnants of the defeated soldiers to garrison the Dajinchuan Gorge. The fortifications were also improvised and simply vulnerable. If you listen to me, I guarantee that you will be able to defeat this defense line in one fell swoop and capture Xiao Yunhe alive!"

Xu Sheren was slightly stunned. Full of suspicion, he looked at the frivolous Chantursi. He knew that although Shang Tuerxi was a very annoying Tubo gentleman, among the three Shang clans, he was indeed very favored. Looking at the current situation, he must have returned from the Tang Army barracks just now...... Put it this way. This self-righteous prodigal playboy went to the Tang Army barracks to be an envoy, and then came back with a nose of ashes?

Shang Tur saw Xu Sheren's suspicious look. He shouted anxiously: "What are you still hesitating about? Could it be that you are still retreating from the battle, and even want to defect to the enemy and commit treason? Your ancestors were originally Han Chinese, and when you were in Victoria before, you released more than 1,000 Han slaves to go back, and Zampu has not yet settled accounts with you about this matter. Now, you obviously have a great fighter, but you are unwilling to enter the army. Xu Sheren, let me ask you—what do you want to do?!"

Xu Sheren also lit a fire, and said loudly: "March to fight." It's not that easy to do. The battlefield is changing rapidly, and the slightest carelessness will lead to annihilation! Xiao Yunhe, the king of Han, is not as useless as you think. This person is very strategic in using soldiers like a god, and even Shang Jiezan and General Mangluo are not his opponents. Enough to see. This man is extraordinary. He dared to lead thousands of remnants to garrison the dangerous points, and he must have a deep intention. The topography of the area from Victoria to Dajinchuan. I'm better known than you. In the Dajinchuan Gorge, the terrain is extremely dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it can be said that it is impossible to open a single man. You don't understand the military command here, if you lose the battle, can you afford it?!"

"Yes, you, you!" Shang Turxi roared angrily, "Look at what you said! You have been singing praises to Xiao Yunhe's stinky boy! Do you want to take these 30,000 troops to join the Tang army? You wait, I will immediately return to the monk Zampu and let them dismiss your military power!"

Xu Sheren was taken aback, and pulled him by hand: "Stop!"

Chantur said angrily, "What else do you have to say?"

Xu Sheren swallowed a breath of resentment into his stomach, and reluctantly said with a pleasant face: "You...... Don't worry. I only said that the terrain of the Grand Canyon is dangerous and easy to defend and difficult to attack, and I didn't say that I won't attack it. Zampu asked me to be a pioneer, and it was my responsibility to clear the obstacles on the road. Now, you can tell me in detail about the details of the checkpoint set up by Xiao Yunhe. Let's think of a proper way to attack the Grand Canyon. ”

Chantur snorted coldly: "This is about the same!"

Three days later, three watches in the middle of the night.

On the arrow tower in front of the sentry, the gong suddenly rang, and the thumping sound was very loud. Xiao Yunhe had just slept with his clothes, when he turned over and got up and ran out of the tent quickly.

"What's going on?" Xiao Yunhe asked loudly. As soon as the voice was finished, the pawn who was on duty at the sentry came forward and replied: "Report to the King of Han, I found a large Tubo army ahead!"

Xiao Yunhe was in good spirits and said loudly: "Order, be ready for battle at any time!"

Three thousand elite troops were assembled in an urgent and orderly manner. There are many bows and crossbows on the sentry, and they are ready for battle.

In the darkness of the night, a dark shadow could be seen moving in the distance, and the neighing of horses could be heard. Sure enough, it was the soldiers and horses of Tubo who came. But they stopped more than 200 paces away from the sentry, seemingly hesitating.

Xu Sheren rode a horse and walked in the front, looking towards the sentry. In the dark, I can't see it very clearly. Tang Jun also extinguished most of the *** very cunningly, although they were in the dark, they couldn't take any advantage.

Seeing that Xu Sheren did not give an order, Shang Tuer sneered on the side: "Scared?"

Xu Sheren glanced at him and said, "In the dark night, the enemy's situation is unknown. A rash attack will only inflict huge losses on our army. The plan you mentioned for the night raid seems to be useless at all. The vigilance of the Tang army was too strong, and there were also sentinels on duty in the middle of the night. Maybe when we came all the way, Yiqiē's whereabouts would have been exposed in front of Xiao Yunhe early. ”

Shang Tuerxi sneered: "How can you use soldiers if you are so cowardly! No matter how powerful Xiao Yunhe is, there are only three or four thousand people after all." No matter how dangerous the pass is, it is nothing more than a temporary pile of trees and stumps. Thirty thousand plateau iron horsemen, can't they break through this thin layer of obstacles?"

Xu Sheren said with some anger: "Fighting is not a battle with many people, let alone being brave enough to solve the problem." You don't know anything about military affairs, don't talk too much here -- pass the order, the army will retreat ten miles, camp in an open area and rest, and see the situation after dawn!"

Shang Tuerxi was ashamed and angry, and spat hatefully: "Cowardly and afraid of death! In the dark night, the Tibetan army slowly retreated.

Xiao Yunhe stood in front of the sentry, frowned suspiciously, and secretly thought to himself: It's strange, the Tubo people are running in the middle of the night, according to their habits, isn't it just right to launch a surprise attack at this time? It seems that the enemy commander is much more cautious than I thought. If they attack so often and don't attack head-on, our army will still be in a bit of trouble...... The enemy general is not a lack of people!

Seeing the retreat of the Tibetans, the bold and careful Xiao Yunhe immediately ordered the soldiers to return to the camp to rest. Only the patrolmen who are on duty as usual are left.

Sure enough, the night was safe until dawn. Just after breakfast, a large number of Tibetan soldiers and horses appeared in front of the sentry. The canyon is a little narrow, and the Tibetans can only walk in a row of five or six horses. But looking behind them, there was a black patch, and there was barely a head in sight.

The bows and crossbows on the sentry had all been set up, and Xiao Yunhe personally climbed the arrow tower to look ahead. The Tibetans were cunning and stopped beyond the range of their bows and arrows. Rectify the formation, it seems to be ready to tackle key problems. A large number of horses were streaming in and out of the canyon, and there was no confusion at all. Soon, in front of the Tang army's outpost, the Tubo discharged a cone-shaped charging formation, which was exactly the running formation they were accustomed to.

Xiao Yunhe looked at it carefully for a while, and secretly tightened in his heart: looking at the other party's situation, he was not in a hurry or impatient, and he advanced and retreated in an orderly manner. The commander of the other party's army is indeed a character, and he is well established. Anyway, if the other party comes to attack, you must compete with them fiercely and make a real fight!

Xiao Yunhe shouted: "Blow the horn, the whole army is ready for battle!"

A long horn blew and shook the canyon. Flocks of birds on the cliff wall flew up in panic, and the atmosphere became more and more tense.

Looking at the black and overwhelming Tubo cavalry, the soldiers of the Flying Dragon Cavalry were also a little embarrassed: the number of enemies is at least ten times that of our army!

Xu Sheren was not in a hurry, and took a few steps forward to watch the Tang army's sentry. As Chantursi said, the fortifications were built in such a hurry that they could not withstand the onslaught of an army of 30,000. But...... With the ability of the King of Han, why should he set up a pass in such a place and block our army with eggs and stones? Xu Sheren was puzzled, and his brows twisted into a big pimple.

Chantur patted his horse and came up to him, and said, "Now you can see it yourself. The fortifications of the Don army were simply vulnerable. He has made a great contribution to capturing Xiao Yunhe, and at this moment, what are you still looking for?"

Xu Sheren didn't even look at him, and muttered as if talking to himself: "Don't worry...... I feel that the other party must have a big conspiracy and a backstroke. The battle of Qishan and the battles of Victoria and Dongnu have fully demonstrated that the king of Han is not an idle person. Now that he is stationed here, it is certainly not as simple as blocking our army. ”

Chantur snorted coldly: "You don't have to make excuses for your cowardice and incompetence. When did the Tang army take advantage of the fight with our Tubo army? Occasionally, he Xiao Yunhe picked up the advantage and won once. No matter what conspiracy and follow-up moves he has, now that Xiao Yunhe is standing on the sentry, capturing him alive is a great opportunity. If you refuse to tackle the problem, assign me a bunch of men. I'm going to attack!"

"You?" Xu Sheren glanced at him and sneered, "You're not his opponent at all." It is no doubt that he will be defeated at his hands without a trick. How can I hand over the soldiers to you. What I'm thinking about now is not as simple as conquering this pass. Don't make a mess. ”

"Cause trouble?!" Chantur was furious, "Xu Sheren, I have been patient with your arrogance and rudeness for a long time, and I can't bear it anymore! Give me 10,000 soldiers and horses, let me go to tackle the fortifications, and second, hand over the military power, and return to the plateau to wait for Zampu's sanctions. ”

Xu Sheren narrowed his eyes and looked at this Shang Tuerxi hatefully, and sighed helplessly in his heart. said: "Give you 3,000 men and horses, go and attack once." Regardless of success or failure, follow my orders from behind. Rule. Don't blame me for being rude to you! After all, I'm the general of the Zomp-appointed Commander Army!"

"Three thousand is three thousand!" Shang Tuer said hatefully, "You just watch here, see how I tied Xiao Yunhe and sent it to Zampu to ask for credit!"

Xiao Yunhe stood on the sentry, crossed his waist with one hand, and held the hilt of his sword with the other, calmly looking at the Tubo army in front of him. It's just very strange that the Tubo army, which has always been known for its rapid offensive and enterprising. The battle formation has been arranged today, and there has been no action.

At this moment, a sound of bullhorns sounded in the Tibetan army, and a shout roared. The front team of soldiers and horses was about five or six hundred people. Rush in front of the sentry post!

"It's coming!" Xiao Yunhe was shocked and said loudly. "Beat the drums and get ready for battle!"

The Tang Army's war drums also sounded, and the canyon suddenly rang out. These hundreds of Tibetan cavalry seemed to be full of strength, and at this time they were galloping, violent, and shouting loudly. When it was still far from the post, a round of arrows rained up.

When this post was built, Xiao Yunhe deliberately personally commanded it. The trees were cut down into two different heights. In front of the enemy, a high row was set up to resist arrows. Then a row of wooden fences was built next to each other, between the two rows of wooden walls of different heights, and then a row of wooden rows was built horizontally, leaving an open space like a wing room below. This is a typical defensive Tang army camp. The sergeant could stand on a wooden platoon and shoot arrows at the enemy, and the chambers below could also leave a gap for the archers to release their arrows, much like a pillbox. On both sides of the sentry, there is also a tall arrow tower. First, it can warn the duty sentry, and secondly, it can take care of the shooting blind spot of the wooden platoon archers.

When the Tibetan people rushed to the ground, three rounds of arrow rain poured out from the wooden rafts, wings and arrow towers. A three-dimensional network of arrows was formed, and there was nothing to hide! On the other hand, the rain of arrows of the Tubo people was shot by a large army on a row of tall wooden platoons in front, and the threat posed to the Tang army was not too great!

Xiao Yunhe stood on the wooden platoon, and personally commanded the battle with a calm expression. The Tibetans relied on their own riding and archery, but in this relatively small space, it was difficult to organize a large-scale charge. After this round of charge, they ran one and came back, but they threw down more than a hundred corpses. A pile of arrows was left on the wooden fence. The wounded or killed officers and men of the Tang Army were quickly evacuated.

It can be said that this seemingly ferocious round of Tubo impact did not cause much damage to the fortifications of the Tang army.

The Tubo cavalry who rushed back shouted in some panic, and they all shouted that the bows and arrows of the Tang army were too dense and powerful!

When Chantur heard what these people said, he was immediately furious and scolded hatefully: "Do you all want to hang the fox's tail in front of you? Blow the horns of the bull and charge again! This time the second team will rush into battle, and the other team will go directly to ram their gate!"

Xu Sheren said angrily: "You are fighting without regard for human life! Although this fortification of the Tang Army is poorly built, it occupies the best of its geographical advantages and can exert an unexpectedly powerful force! I have already said that Xiao Yunhe is not so easy to deal with!"

"Xu Sheren, who are you Xiao Yunhe?!" Shang Tur scolded angrily, and then he couldn't help but blow the horn and order to charge again!

The ground was shaken. This time, the Tibetans are coming more!

A group of cavalry on the left and right charged, covering a long line of lancers in the middle, charging towards the gate of the wall.

Xiao Yunhe's heart was shocked, and he secretly thought to himself: What a desperate way to play!

"The two compartments and the arrow tower, just release the arrows!" Xiao Yunhe ordered, "The crossbow cart and the gun array are placed in front of the gate of the village!"

Wyvern Riders are well-trained. Do as you are told. Ten ballistas were pushed in front of the gate. More than 300 pikemen with spears in their hands to stab horses in the stomach also lined up behind the ballista. This is the method specially designed by Xiao Yunhe for the flying dragon rider after he arrived in Jiannan, and the method used to defend the village when dealing with Tubo. Since it was not convenient for the cavalry to be equipped with a sword, they used a gun array. This gun is actually a specially made and lengthened iron horse lance. Regardless of the people on the horse, just poke straight out and kill the horse. Dozens of people stood in a row and stabbed out in unison, like an iron wall, which made the cavalry fearful. Plus a row of ballistas, extremely defensive. Especially in this narrow canyon area.

The Tibetans did rush hard enough this time. It seems that they are a little afraid of being hung with a fox's tail on their faces when they go back. About 2,000 people rushed up together. Under the dense rain of arrows of the Tang army, although a number of people were killed. But the others didn't flinch at all, and rushed directly to the sentry!

On the contrary, the gate of the camp was built more sparsely, and the Tubo people also saw a flaw here. A group of Tibetan people carrying knives rushed to the gate of the village with a shout, and they were about to cut off the antlers and rush in.

In Xiao Yunhe's angry shout, ten ballistae attacked together, and a row of long crossbows shot out from the gap in the walled gate. The powerful crossbow even penetrated through the horse's body. There were bursts of screams from the Tibetans. People on their backs turned over their horses and spilled blood all over the sky. At the same time, the Tang army, standing on the wooden platoon, stabbed from above with spears, poking at the heads of the Tubo people. The cavalry on both sides of the Tibetan flanks also set up arrows to cover the cavalry attacking the fortified areas. Time. The Tang army also had a number of dead and wounded.

In the gap between the crossbow launches, the Tibetan cavalry slammed into the front of the walled gate. Broadsword chopped down. Sawdust flew around, and it looked like even the gate was about to be knocked down.

Xiao Yunhe got on the horse, raised the horse lance in his hand and shouted, "The gun array is forward!"

There were about fifty sergeants in a row, holding up a thick iron lance that was nearly two people long, and rushed forward in unison with a deep roar - the long iron lance was cold and hard, and the group of Tubo cavalry who rushed to the front penetrated through the men and horses!

After the row of guns was finished, it quickly dodged in both directions. Because this kind of long iron lance is very heavy, if you don't sprint up, you can't exert great power, and you can't fight hard with people in your hand at all. The first row of guns was withdrawn, and for a moment, the back row of guns came up again. Forcefully repelled the Tubo people who were attacking the walled gate. Leaving a large body and blood in front of the walled gate.

Ten rows of guns, five hundred people, endlessly rotating and impacting. When he was training, Xiao Yunhe had strict orders, as long as the military order was issued, no matter what the situation was, he could only move forward. Even if there is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire in front of you, and your father and brother are stepping on your feet, you are not allowed to delay for a moment. This is a local tactic that requires strict coordination, and the slightest flaw in one place may affect the smooth operation of the entire battle array.

Now it seems that the flying dragoon warriors who have turned into infantry have just the right grasp. The appearance of such a set of secret weapons as the gun array and the ballista obviously caught the Tubo people off guard. In front of the sentry, three or four hundred corpses of men and horses were left in an instant. At the same time, on the arrow towers on both sides of the sentry, the losses of the Tang army were also relatively heavy. The soldiers stationed in the arrow tower had one less layer of protection than the Tang army hiding behind the wooden platoon, and from time to time someone was hit by an arrow and fell down the arrow tower screaming.

In the canyon, the sound of shouting and killing shook dozens of miles away. However, hundreds of corpses had already piled up in front of the hundred-pace-wide sentry post. The camp of the Tang army was full of arrows, and gaps were cut out in many places, and the Tibetans almost broke through several times.

Thrilling! Xiao Yunhe himself also had this feeling. The soldiers of Tibet are indeed very brave and good at fighting. It is no wonder that in recent years, Tibet has continued to rise up, which is inseparable from the fact that their warriors are not afraid of death and are brave and brave. Those people, watching their compatriots around them being pierced by spears, were not moved at all, and still bravely rushed to kill. Just like a wild wolf, he often fights by stepping on the corpses of his companions.

The battle lasted nearly an hour. The Tang army was at the sentry point, and five or six times faced the danger of being overturned. Xiao Yunhe led a cavalry of about 300 people, all of whom were already on their horses and ready to go, ready for close combat at any time. This post can also be abandoned at any time if necessary. All the soldiers were equipped with horses. It won't be too difficult to run away then. The escape route in the rear has long been decided.

He had always thought very clearly. It is almost impossible to hold this sentry to block the attacks of the Tibetans. What we have to do now is to make a desperate appearance and then retreat. Seduce the Tibetan army into the encirclement of Wumeng Mountain in the rear.

At this moment, a sound of horns sounded behind Tibet. The Tibetans, who were storming the camp, flashed backwards as quickly as the ebbing tide. In front of the camp, more than 1,000 corpses have been left.

Shang Tur was already in a cold sweat, and kept waving his sleeves and wiping his forehead. Xu Sheren's eyes showed a cold light, and he said hatefully: "Are you happy now? More than 1,000 people died like this, but the Tang Army's sentry did not move at all!"

Chantur swallowed, speechless for the first time. He thought to himself in a panic: It's really ...... that kind of chaotic camp has such a strong defense Strange!

"Retreat ten miles and set up camp and build a village!" Xu Sheren gave an order. Ignoring Chantur again, he rode away alone.

Xiao Yunhe stood on the wooden raft and looked at the retreating Tubo people, not only did he frown with joy: Tubo people, this time they are so cautious. Just now they sent another round of men and horses to storm for half an hour, and I may have to retreat. Enemy general, who is sacred?!

The cautiousness of the Tibetan general made Xiao Yunhe feel a little uneasy. Since the war had already started in the Dajinchuan Gorge, the dark posts and secret posts sent before could no longer send the news to Xiao Yunhe's hands in time. Judging by the news sent before, there are about 30,000 soldiers and horses in this Tubo army. It is far from the "300,000 army" that Tubo itself claims. Judging by Xiao Yunhe's experience, this should be a vanguard force.

If this vanguard force cannot be lured into the encirclement of Wumeng Mountain and eaten, when the enemy army arrives, there may be some trouble. It was not that they were afraid of the large number of enemies, and the encirclement of Wumeng Mountain was originally designed for a large group of soldiers and horses. If you are afraid, you are afraid, the enemy army has seen through the tactics of the Tang army, and will take certain measures to avoid the encirclement. After all, the Tibetan people have occupied Victoria for a long time, and they should be very familiar with the terrain around Dajinchuan.

In fact, this strategy to lure the enemy into the depths is itself a bit dangerous. Therefore, Xiao Yunhe personally led the team to Dajinchuan to take bait. The Dajinchuan Gorge is the most precipitous terrain in this area. It is necessary to make a posture here to resist danger and block, so that the enemy army can breathe a sigh of relief after breaking through this place, and only by being a little paralyzed and careless ideologically can the goal be achieved. So, it's a delicate job. How to perform the play realistically is far more important than the victory or defeat of this local battlefield. When necessary...... These three thousand flying dragon riders are also sacrificeable.

However, if you are afraid, you are afraid, and if you sacrifice these three thousand flying dragon riders, you will not be able to lure the enemy army into the encirclement. Because the Tibetan generals are far more cautious and cautious than they imagined. This somewhat surprised Xiao Yunhe. I have always thought that the Tibetan army is known for its fierceness and roughness, and there is no strategy or strategy at all. But this army is different. Even if it was an absolute numerical advantage, it was only a tentative attack. He didn't fight hard with brute force. Obviously, the Tubo general who came with the troops this time was very strategic.

After repelling the attack of the Tibetans, the Flying Dragoon warriors quickly took care of the battlefield. The damaged sentry was repaired. Xiao Yunhe sat in the handsome tent and secretly tightened his brows. Look at the detailed map of this side and meditate alone.

Soon after, the colonel came in and reported the casualties. Of the 3,000 men, more than 200 were killed and more than 400 were lightly or seriously wounded. The losses are still quite large. Xiao Yunhe sent a small team of men and horses to load the wounded into the car. Sent back to Victoria. Now, there are only more than 2,000 Wyvern-Cavalry soldiers left to defend here.

Just waiting for the Tibetans to attack and then defeat is not the best way to lure the enemy...... Xiao Yunhe fell into deep thought again.

At the same time, in the Tibetan camp. It's not calm and ordinary.

Xu Sheren knew very well that this was his last chance to turn over. Due to the loss of Victoria, the loss of soldiers and horses, and the loss of the end of the Eastern Woman Kingdom, the Xu family is almost doomed. In fact, to put it mildly, Chisong Zampu has already treated his Xu family very well. To know. Tibet is not like an open and tolerant Great Qi, which treats foreign races with leniency. In Tibet, there are many Han Chinese. But the vast majority. but slaves who are as lowly as animals. Some people with skills and knowledge can barely become the bureaucrats of some wealthy families, and their status is only on an equal footing with the common people of Tibet. It can really be said that there are very few people who can do this like him Xu Sheren to command the army. In fact, the people of the Xu family have long forgotten what kind of famous generals of the Great Qi are on their ancestors. As early as decades ago, when Xu Jingye was killed by the Empress Wu, they had no feelings for Daqi. Now, what they think about the most is: How to survive in Tibet.

If you want to survive, you have to kill the Han people. The more they killed, the more stable the Xu family's position became...... Whenever he thinks of these, Xu Sheren can't help but feel sad and bitter smiles.

Xu Sheren held an oil lamp and frowned on a map to look closely. There was one thing he couldn't figure out. Why did the Tang army know that it would not be able to stop the Tubo army. It is also necessary to set up a checkpoint here in the Dajinchuan Gorge. Although there are only 3,000 people, it is quite a lot for Nishikawa. Not to mention. It was Xiao Yunhe who personally commanded it. Today, he could not withstand the repeated instigations of Chanturxi, and let him take a few thousand men to attack. As he expected, Shang Tuerxi, who only knew that he was stupid and brutal, of course he couldn't break through Xiao Yunhe's defense. But what Xu Sheren cared about was not the battle situation itself. Tong Guò tried this time, and he was even more sure of one point: Xiao Yunhe was really fighting, and he was going to defend the Dajinchuan Gorge.

"But what purpose did he do this? Could it be that a temporary fortification would be more solid than the Xuanmen Pass in Victoria, although this is a dangerous ...... for a man," Xu Sheren muttered to himself, bewildered.

At this moment, Chantur entered the felt tent. You can see that he is a little frustrated. But the expression is still a little proud.

Xu Sheren glanced at him, continued to look at the map, and said casually: "Sit down." ”

Chantur coughed awkwardly and sat down in a dignified manner. He glanced at the map and said, "What are you looking at?"

"Does it have anything to do with you?" Xu Sheren replied to him angrily, "I have already said that if you don't understand military affairs, don't blindly command to cause chaos." Today the facts have proven this. More than 1,000 soldiers died in vain, which is a huge loss, you know?"

"Yes, I confess, I am indeed not good at marching and fighting. "However, I know the Han people very well, even better than you. I know that the generals of the Han people are learning and practicing an art of war, called the Art of War. Coincidentally, I was able to recite this military book. ”

Xu Sheren said with a smile and a smile: "You can endorse it, what does this have to do with me." If you can repel the enemy with a book on your back, then what do you need us soldiers to do? You better go back to the plateau and report the news to Zampu as soon as possible. Don't mess with me here. ”

Shang Tuer's face turned red, and he said hatefully: "Xu Sheren, don't pretend to be crazy and stupid here." You know what I mean. I mean ...... Xiao Yunhe set up a checkpoint here in the Dajinchuan Gorge to block our army, but it was just to delay time and buy time for him to transfer troops and generals. Think about it, with 3,000 men, how can you stop my army of 30,000. Isn't he Xiao Yunhe really not afraid of death?"

Xu Sheren looked at Shang Tuer for a while and said, "Delay time...... Well, even if you have a point. What do you want to do?"

"Needless to say?" cried Shantursi, "of course to smash his plot! Caught him off guard!"

Xu Sheren snorted in his nose and said, "It would be nice if Xiao Yunhe's intentions were really as simple as you said." I always had a feeling that he must have a huge conspiracy behind him. Otherwise...... In any case, he couldn't afford to venture out into the canyon himself. The more serious he became, the more he said that the foreshadowing behind him was very important. Daejincheon here. There's a good chance it's just a decoy, you know?"

"Bait?" Shang Tuer was stunned for a moment, and looked at Xu Sheren blankly, "Xiao Yunhe personally came to make the bait, is this unlikely?"

Xu Sheren glanced at Shang Tuer with some disdain. said: "On the battlefield, nothing is impossible. Xiao Yunhe, including the three thousand Tang Army, may be bait. Although I don't know yet, what is behind him. But what I do know for sure is that our army cannot recklessly fall for his scheme. We had an army of 30,000, and he had only 3,000. They are the ones who should be anxious and afraid. So, stop yelling and directing in front of me. It seems calm at the moment, but in fact, the undercurrent is very dangerous. Any decision could cost 30,000 troops. Do you understand?"
