The tent was silent for a long time, and suddenly Gao Fenglin said:

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, I have a question below. ”

Ye Hu Dao:

"But it doesn't hurt to say that. ”

Gao Fenglin said:

"This time An Lushan is attacking the east and west of Tibet, I don't know how your country will send troops?"

Ye Hu says:

"Naturally, it is to cooperate with the Tang Army to attack. ”

Gao Fenglin asked again:

"If the battlefield is in the hinterland of the Central Plains, then what should be done in the Western Regions and Longyou?"

Hoga continued:

That is what I want you to discuss today. ”

Gao Fenglin, Ping Qingyun, Zhang Xuan and others were puzzled and asked:

"For what purpose?"

Ye Hu says:

"Actually, I have a tribe in Hui,

Long lived in the Western Regions near the Tianshan Mountains, and has an army of more than 1,000 people, led by my powerful general Gu Du special service, the truth is not hidden, a few days ago I received a letter from Gu Du special service, Tubo has an army of more than 5,000 people from the west of Xiao Bolu detoured thousands of miles, all the way to the vicinity of Gongyue City, and combined with the Tuqi Shi, trying to seize a large area north of the Tianshan Mountains, Gu Lu special service was defeated, led the army to retreat to the vicinity of the Baiyang River, waiting for reinforcements. ”

Ping Qingyun vaguely felt what the other party meant, and said:

"What do you mean by ......?"

Hoga Road:

"We have been fighting with the Sayan Mountains tribe for a long time, and more than half of the entire Uighur army is near the Sayan Mountains. And the prince has previously transferred thousands of elite cavalry to the south, and he can't be transferred back for a while, and my return to the elite cavalry is all here, once An Lushan raises troops, these thousands of elite cavalry will definitely cooperate with the Tang army to fight, and I am afraid that it will not be able to go west to the Western Regions to assist the backbone special service. ”

Ping Qing Yun Road:

"Didn't this matter be reported to Chang'an City, the emperor should have given some instructions!"

Ye Hu shook his head and said:

"You don't know, now the court is under the control of Yang Guozhong, the emperor has no intention of political affairs in recent years, this matter has long been hidden from Yang Guozhong, saying that this is a plan of Tubo to attack the west, is to take advantage of the Tang army to divide troops in the Tianshan Mountains, take the opportunity to seize the Hetao area, is to send troops to help. ”

When it came to Yang Guozhong, Ping Qingyun and Gao Fenglin were not angry, only to hear Gao Fenglin scold:

"Yang Guozhong, the turtle bastard, is really a disaster for the country and the people, and one day he will get retribution. ”

Ping Qingyun clenched his fists and snorted coldly:

"One day, I will kill him with my own hands and avenge my father. ”

Zhang Xuan says:

"In this case, will there be no soldiers to send, no one to help?"

At this time, Huo Jia and Ye Hu stood up at the same time, looked at Gao Fenglin, Ping Qingyun and others, and only heard Huo Jia say:

"I discussed with the prince, hoping that a few young heroes could lend a helping hand and help. ”

Gao Fenglin's mouth is open:

"You mean let us go to the Western Regions for you to help that what?"

Ye Hu says:

"Exactly, at this moment, the Gulu special service is trapped in a cottage in the valley of the Baiyang River, occupying the favorable terrain of the cottage and defending it firmly, and the other party will not be able to attack it for a while, but I am afraid that if the time drags on for a long time, the army will be defeated. ”

Oka added:

"Now that I am returning to the palace, except for His Royal Highness the Prince, no one can lead the troops to the battle, and now the king is critically ill, the prince is in charge of the country, and it is even more necessary to prevent Prime Minister Aheqin and others from waiting for the opportunity to persuade peace, so we implore you to rescue the soldiers trapped in the Poplar River. ”

At this time, Gao Fenglin, Ping Qingyun, Zhang Xuan, Zhou Shangjing, Huang Fulian and Liu Tong looked at each other, looking at each other, not knowing what to do for a while, and hesitated.

Seeing that a few people were hesitant, Hoga said again:

"Actually, it's not just a few who went alone, this time His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has allocated all the eighteen attendants under his command, don't underestimate these eighteen guards, they are all warriors with one enemy and ten. I will also select some brave warriors from my clan to go with you. ”

At this time, Huo Jia's eldest son, Wu Dejian, also stood up, clasped his hands into fists, and said to Gao Fenglin and the others:

"I beg you this time, if you are not at ease, I am willing to go to the Poplar River with you. ”

Hearing Wu Dejian say this, Hun Guwu and Yan Luo also stood up and said:

"All three of us brothers would like to go with us to the Poplar River. ”

With dozens of people and a thousand people to face the battle-hardened Tubo Iron Cavalry,

This matter is not trivial, and it is even more life-threatening, not only Gao Fenglin and Zhang Xuan, but even Ping Qingyun, who has been fighting on the battlefield for many years, has no bottom in his heart.

Several people glanced at each other, and finally looked at Ping Qingyun together. Among all the people, Ping Qingyun has the most experience in fighting, and he has also led troops to fight with Tubo, and he knows the most about this matter, Ping Qingyun looked at the eyes of several people, and it was not easy to make decisions in his heart, so he said:

"This matter is a big matter, I can't be the master alone, His Royal Highness the Prince, can you allow me to wait for two days to think about it?"

Prince Road:

"The matter is urgent, please make a decision as soon as possible, I thank you for the military and civilians of Hui. ”

Saying that, Ye Hu actually made a big gift to a few people, and Ping Qingyun and Gao Fenglin hurriedly helped the prince up, bluntly saying that he couldn't afford it.

Since Ping Qingyun opened this mouth, Ye Hu and Huo Jia naturally didn't want to ask for someone to agree immediately, and Huo Jia said:

"In this case, you will discuss it first, and then explain it to us. ”

In this way, Ping Qingyun and a few others left Huojia's tooth tent together and gathered in Gao Fenglin's tent.

Gao Fenglin first said:

"What do you think about this?"

Zhang Xuandao:

"In my opinion, the Poplar River incident is true, you look at the expression of His Royal Highness the Prince, he is very anxious, it doesn't look like a fake. ”

Ping Qingyun also said:

"The Tibetans had joined forces with the Turgish in the early years, and it is not surprising that they are joining forces again. I've also heard that one of the Hui tribes has been living near the Tianshan Mountains, but I don't know why the Tubo and the Tuqi Shi want to join forces to attack the Hui, don't they know that this will prompt the Hui and my Tang Dynasty to jointly send troops, and it won't do them any good?"

Gao Fenglin said:

"Well, I also wonder about this, this is a special period, and at this time, suddenly declaring war on Hui Hui, wouldn't it be a stone to shoot yourself in the foot?"

At this time, Zhang Xuan said:

"I guess the Tubo must have known that the Hui will not rebel against the Tang Dynasty, and the Tianshan branch has also fought with the Tubo many times, once the war is started, the threat of the Tianshan branch to the Tubo will not be small, when the Hui army is transferred to the vicinity of the Tianshan Mountains, the threat to the Tubo will only be greater, the Tubo will strike first this time, if the Tianshan branch is annihilated in one fell swoop, then when they raise troops in the area west of the Longyou River, there will be no resistance, as if walking on the ground. ”

Ping Qingyun, who was contemplating:

"Zijun's words are to the point, Tubo traveled thousands of miles from the west to make a detour, sneaked up on Gongyue City with lightning speed, and forced the Hui army stationed in the city out of the Tianshan Mountains, just to prepare for the big war in the future, it seems that this Ma Chongying is really a powerful person. ”

"Then what should we do?" Zhou Shangjing asked suddenly.

Gao Fenglin and Zhang Xuan also looked at Ping Qingyun together and listened to what he had to say.

Ping Qingyun glanced at a few people and said:

"Tubo in the Helong area is bound to win, once Tubo cuts off the east-west bridge, the Western Regions will naturally fall, if you can keep the military and civilians in the Western Regions, so that Tubo is attacked on both sides, maybe you can also fight for a little initiative. I think we must not only rescue the backbone of the special service, but also stabilize the situation in the Western Regions, and not let the military defense in the Western Regions collapse. We must annihilate all these 5,000 Tibetan men. ”

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was dumbfounded, and how dozens of people annihilated an army of thousands of people was simply a big fallacy in the world.

Zhang Xuandao:

"There are dozens of us, even if we add more than 1,000 people from the Gulu Special Service, how can we annihilate the Tubo army that is several times larger than ours?"

Ping Qing Yun Road:

"In the battlefield, there are rapid changes, and there have been battles of winning more with less since ancient times. At the end of the Qin Dynasty, the Western Chu Overlord Project broke the main force of the 400,000 Qin army led by the famous Qin generals Zhang Han and Wang Li in Julu with tens of thousands of people. In the past, Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu also fought in Kunyang and led a 3,000-strong death squad to break the 42nd army of Xinmang. In the battle of Guandu, Cao Cao also defeated Yuan Shao's 100,000 army with 20,000 troops. Now that we have broken him with a thousand troops, why not?"

Listening to Ping Qingyun's quotation from the ancients, the pride in his chest gradually surged out, Gao Fenglin, Zhang Xuan, Zhou Shangjing, Huangfu Lian and Liu Tong were all infected, and there was also a pride in their chests, only to hear Zhang Xuan say:

"Qingyun is right, there are no absolutes, as long as we work together, if we want to break through his five thousand Tibetan barbarians, what is the difficulty!"

Gao Fenglin also said:

"Yes, when we were in Fanyang, we weren't afraid of more than 100,000 people in An Lushan, but were we afraid of 5,000 people?"

Huangfu Lian should also be with Gao Fenglin:

"Since Senior Brother said so, count me in. ”

He stretched out his right hand. I heard Zhou Shangjing say again:

"Count me in. He also put his right hand on Huangfu Lian's hand, and Liu Tong saw that everyone agreed, so he stretched out his hand:

"Everyone lives and dies together, how can you miss me, count me in. ”

At this time, Gao Fenglin, Ping Qingyun and Zhang Xuan glanced at each other, each smiled, and stretched out their hands. From this moment on, the six of them started a new chapter in their lives. (To be continued.) )
