Chapter 53: No Hope

At the end of September in the twelfth year of Tianbao of the Tang Dynasty (753), in the ripening season of barley, the Tubo general Shang Jiexi led the 150,000 garrisons stationed in the Jishi Mountain defense line for thousands of miles back to help Luo, but in the end they were exhausted outside the city of Luo, and even the Tubo heirs who accompanied the army, Song Dezan and Daxiang Zhong Bajie, became prisoners.

Taking advantage of the fact that the Tubo People's Army and the Anxi Army were cleaning up the battlefield, Li Zuoguo found Li Siye and asked in a whisper: "Grandpa, the Tubo heir and the Tubo minister, what are you going to do?" ”

Li Siye frowned and asked, "If you have anything to say, just say it." ”

Li Zuoguo said in a low voice: "Grandpa, how the army of Feng Jieshuai fought with the army of Tubo Zampu in Yangtong, we don't know, maybe it has already won, maybe it is still holding on to each other, or maybe it ......"

After a pause in this, Li Zuoguo continued: "So what does the child mean, first send a team of elite soldiers to escort the heirs of Tubo and the great minister Zhong Bajie and other prisoners of war to Chang'an to win the victory?" ”

How to succeed after winning the battle is a question for the university.

In the end, Li Longji took action to transfer Fumeng Lingcha away, and helped Gao Xianzhi to the high position of Jiedu, so that the turmoil was finally calmed, but this also gave the Anxi army a very bad start.

At this time, Li Zuoguo suggested that Li Siye learn from Gao Xianzhi and bypass Feng Changqing and go directly to Chang'an.

Back then, Gao Xianzhi just pacified Xiao Boluguo, and he was able to squeeze out Fumeng Lingcha to take over as the envoy of the Anxi Festival, this time his grandfather directly pacified Tubo, and squeezed out Feng Changqing to take over as the envoy of the Jiedu. If you don't do it, you have to be crowned the prince of the country, so that even if he Li Zuoguo doesn't do anything, he will be able to be a county prince in the future.

……

Lu Xiaoning happened to hear the conversation between Li Siye and Li Zuoguo's father and son, and his face immediately turned cold.

Strictly speaking, Li Zuoguo's approach is actually not a big problem, and the upper ones are also very happy to see it, because only if there are contradictions between the people at the bottom, the upper ones can play balancing in the middle, and if the people at the bottom are harmonious, then the upper ones will easily be set aside, which is the so-called imperial mind or human sophistication.

But Lu Xiaoning is very disdainful of this kind of style in his bones.

Many things are bad because of this kind of human sophistication.

Let's see what choice Li Siye will make?

……

"Shut up!" Li Siye was furious when he heard this, "What are you talking about? ”

Li Zuoguo frowned and said, "Grandpa, this is actually nothing, Gao Jieshuai did the same." ”

"Gao Jieshuai once did this, and he can follow suit without any scruples, whether it is right or wrong?" Li Siye said angrily, "Then you mistook your grandfather, your grandfather and I are not such villains." ”

"Grandpa, please be cautious, Gao Jieshuai is not a villain."

When Li Zuoguo was about to continue to persuade, Lu Tianshi's voice suddenly sounded in the sky above Xingyuan: "Li Siye, you are an admirable gentleman, Li Zuoguo, you should learn how to behave from Grandpa Ling." ”

"Huh?" Li Zuoguo's face immediately fell, he was really a god.

"Whoa." Li Siye sang a fat song with his forked hands, "Li Siye has no way to teach his son, which makes Lu Tianshi smile." ”

"You are you, and your son is your son, these are two different things." Lu Tianshi said, "Also, just now I saw the main force of Feng Changqing's Anxi Army, which is about two hundred miles away from Luoqi City. ”

"The army of the Feng Jieshuai has also arrived?" Li Siye was really overjoyed.

Li Zuoguo secretly said that it was dangerous, thanks to Grandpa who didn't listen to him, if he really listened to his dispatch of troops to escort Song Dezan and Zhong Bajie and other prisoners of war to Chang'an, he would definitely be chased back by Feng Changqing, and then his grandpa and him Li Zuoguo, don't want to gain a foothold in Anxi anymore.

Li Siye said: "Then you have to welcome it." ”

At that moment, Li Siye ordered hundreds of personal soldiers to meet Feng Changqing's army.

……

In the valley of the Tibetan River, Feng Changqing led the main force of the Anxi Army and 30,000 Hu cavalry to march.

He was accompanied by the 100,000 troops of Tubo Zanpu ruler with Zhu Dan, Tubo general Dazaru Gong, Tubo Living Buddha Jiezun Shenggen Weng Shu and Tubo Wuru, but they were all prisoners of war.

After the initial period of shame, the ruler began to calm down.

Then he began to take the initiative to discuss the aftermath of Tubo with Feng Changqing.

"Feng Jieshuai, our Shannan Sibuye family has always admired the Tang culture."

"The ancestor Songpu Ganpu once married Princess Wencheng, the daughter of Emperor Taizong, and I also married Princess Jincheng, the sister of the Tang Sage.

"As the saying goes, clothes are not as good as new, and people are not as good as old, so instead of supporting other little-known families to rule Tibet, it is better to still use our Sibuye family."

The ruler belt Zhu Dan agitated the three-inch incorruptible tongue and tried to persuade Feng Changqing.

Feng Changqing turned his head from the horse, looked at the ruler belt bead pill curled up in the prisoner car, and asked: "Ruler belt bead pill, it turns out that you also know that Tubo and the Tang Dynasty intermarried?" Then why do you Tubo continue to violate the border repeatedly? It's not enough to take the big and small Bolu, it's not enough to take the land of Tuyuhun and Jiuqu, but also to take the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate of my Tang Dynasty? ”

"All these things were deceived by traitors, and now I have repented." He swore a gambling curse, "I can make a poisonous oath in the name of the Yala Chambord Mountain God and the Living Buddha, and I will always surrender to the Tang Dynasty in this life, and if I dare to raise troops to invade the realm, I will not die well, and if I die, I will go down to eighteen layers of sword and saw hell......"

"Do you think I'll believe it?" Feng Changqing said abruptly.

Seeing that he always said that he was not satisfied with Feng Changqing, he decided to make a small threat, maybe the effect would be better, and then said: "If the Tang Dynasty will build Tubo into another capital protectorate, it is wishful thinking, because the people of Tubo are fierce, and they are by no means comparable to the small countries of Anxi, if there is no guard from our Xibuye family, Tubo will definitely be in turmoil, and if there are many garrisons, it will be useless, if there are many garrisons, it will be wasted on food and salary, and it is easy to drag down the money and valley of the Tang Dynasty, as far as I know, the state of the Tang Dynasty seems to be quite insufficient." ”

"You don't have to worry about it." After Feng Changqing finished speaking, he sang a chord to the sky, and then said, "Our Taoist Lu Tianshi has already thought of a long-term peace strategy. ”

"Lu Tianshi? A long-term solution? "But I don't know what the means?" ”

Feng Changqing said: "You will know when you arrive in Luo, if nothing else, Li Siye's army has already captured Luojiao four months ago, in this way, Lu Tianshi's long-term peace policy is only afraid that it has been implemented, and from then on, your Xibuye family's rule over Tibet will become history." ”

But Zhu Dan laughed out loud.

"Feng Changqing, it's not me who hits you."

"With Li Siye's more than 10,000 men, it is impossible to take Luo."

"And the Lu Tianshi you mentioned, it is impossible to appease those nobles in Luo, not to mention the land kings of the surrounding states in Luo, without our Xibuye family, the Tang army will not be able to move an inch in the snowy plateau."

As soon as the words fell, a cavalry of several hundred men was rapidly approaching from the east side of the Tibetan River valley.

"It's our Anthy military flag." The accompanying soldiers said excitedly, "Jie Shuai, it's our people!" ”

"Well, it should be Li Siye." Feng Changqing nodded happily and said, "It seems that he has really taken Luo." ”

"Huh?" The Living Buddha of Zhu Dan, Dazaru Gong and Jiezun Shenggen Weng Shu all turned their heads and looked at the hundreds of horsemen and horses approaching quickly to the east of the river valley.

got closer, and found that it was really the Tang Anxi Army.

The leading military general is extremely burly, but it is not Li Siye.

Seeing this, Zhu Dan's eyes suddenly darkened, and the last trace of luck was annihilated.

After a while, Li Siye flew to Feng Changqing, first sang a fat song on horseback, and said respectfully to Feng Changqing: "Qiyu Jie Shuai, Siye is fortunate not to be dishonored, he has captured Luo Qi more than four months ago, and today he completely annihilated the Shang Jiexi army that returned from the direction of Jishi Mountain. ”

"What?" The eyes of Zhu Dan and Dazaru Gong widened.

"Oh?" Feng Changqing was also surprised and inexplicable, "The Shang Jiexi army that returned from Jishi Mountain was also wiped out?" ”

"Yes, they were all wiped out too." Li Siye smiled and said, "The heirs of Tubo, Song Dezan, the great minister Zhong Bajie, and the general Shang Jiexi, etc., were all captured alive. ”

The ruler beaded the pill and closed his eyes in pain.

It's all over, and there is no hope for Tibet at all.
