Datang: My apprentice is Princess Changle

Chapter 604 The Tubo People’s Guess
Chapter 621 The Tubo People's Guess
Tubo Barracks
In the big tent of the Chinese army, the king of Tubo, who had already been given medicine, was sitting there, frowning, listening to his confidantes report information to him.

"...Your Majesty, regarding this incident, my subordinates feel that there may be fraud in it!" The intelligence officer told the Tubo King the news he had found, and finally said this.

The king of Tubo looked solemn, and he was a little suspicious.

"This king originally thought that the bombing of Bansu would cause heavy damage to the Youzhou defenders. In the end, it was just a trick played by the Youzhou defenders? Is this a trap?"

When he just came back, he still felt that this failure was due to the gunfire of the vanguard army and the bombing of the camp caused by his fall.But after he finished bandaging the wound and thought about it carefully, he realized something was wrong.

First, where is the gunshot coming from?

Even if there are not many surviving Youzhou defenders, they can't be ghosts, and no one else can see them, right?

But when he rushed out all the way, he could only hear gunshots one after another, but he couldn't see a shadow of Youzhou defenders!

It was so chaotic at the time, he couldn't think of it, but now that he had time to think about it carefully, he immediately realized that there must be something wrong with it.

After all, the Youzhou garrison is not a ghost, so where are so many sneerers?Now that these people are all "invisible", who can guarantee that only a small number of people are "invisible", instead of all the Youzhou defenders hiding?

But where can they hide?

The Tubo king frowned, thinking about this.

"Come here, call all the generals to discuss matters in the king's central army tent!"

"Yes!"

As the people around him went to inform the generals and advisers to come to the Chinese army tent, the spies also withdrew first.

In less than half a stick of incense, the Chinese military tent was already full of people.

The king of Tubo told his officials what he was puzzled about, and when they heard it, they also felt that what the king of Tubo said was very reasonable.

"Could it be that they can still drill into the ground? The previous explosive bombing bombed for half a night. If they were on the ground, even if they were not in the house, they would not be able to escape those bombings." One person said with a frown.

When he said this, he said it casually, but the eyes of the king of Tubo, who was sitting at the top, lit up.

"Yes! Under the ground!"

The Tubo king clapped the handle of the chair and said viciously, "It must be so! They are hiding underground!"

"But, there are no caves nearby, can they really escape?" another person asked puzzledly.

This time, without the Tubo king opening his mouth, a civil official said: "You don't know, people in the Central Plains, especially those in the north, have a habit..."

Seeing that everyone around him looked at him, he was a little proud that he finally had a chance to show off his erudition, and continued talking.

"These people from the Central Plains in the north are used to digging cellars under their own homes."

"The cellar?" Someone said this word, feeling very strange.

"Yes, the cellar. It's like, a house under the ground! It extends all the way down, and it can store food, vegetables, fruits..."

The King of Tubo gave him an appreciative glance, nodded, and said, "That's right! I have heard people mention cellars before, and the emperors of the Central Plains like to build huge underground palaces for themselves before they die. It is said that the underground palace built by Qin Shihuang has a radius of hundreds of miles! The underground palace is all empty, and the palace looks like it! There are countless gold and silver jewels buried, and the people buried , probably tens of thousands, or even tens of thousands of people!"

"hiss!"

Hearing this, everyone present was extremely shocked.

"This, how is this possible! Will it not collapse?"

"So many people were buried with them? Tens of thousands? How many hundred thousand? So many people? Can you fit so many people?"

Those who were shocked were not shocked by the legendary incident, which would cause so many people to be buried. After all, in their opinion, most of the people who could be ordered to be buried by Qin Shihuang were slaves.

And the existence of slaves, in the eyes of these Tubo nobles, is even lower than cattle and sheep.

They were shocked, is there really such a big underground palace?
If such a thing is true, doesn't it mean that the Central Plains people have been good at digging holes since a long time ago?

"In the Youzhou checkpoint, the underground is also empty, right? There is also an underground checkpoint below?" Someone immediately reacted.

People even thought of what the spy who was killed before yelled. If the spy didn't tell lies, then there is indeed something weird in the checkpoint!
Some of those who followed disappeared suddenly. Doesn't that just illustrate this point?
Thinking of this, these ministers were a little uneasy.

If this is true, how can they completely conquer this level?
If the defenders of Youzhou live on the ground, they can use the bombing of explosives to carry out night raids, but the defenders of Youzhou live underground!If the Youzhou defenders are really hiding underground, unless they can dig three feet into the ground, how should they deal with this situation?

They don't need explosives, and people can use guns to attack them. After they use explosives, they go in, but they are still attacked by muskets. Is there any difference?

It's nothing more than the difference between being attacked openly and being attacked secretly.

The Tubo king also thought of this, and a distressed expression appeared on his face.

Yes, in this case, how should they conquer the checkpoint?

"Your Majesty, why don't you just see if you can rush over directly!" Someone suggested.

Before the king of Tubo could speak, someone next to him retorted: "Don't take down this checkpoint, just rush in? Are you not afraid that we will become the ones caught in the urn?"

That's right, if you don't control this checkpoint in your own hands, it means that the gate continues to be in the hands of the Youzhou defenders. In this case, if they go in, won't they have no way to come out again?
It is considered elegant to use the term "catch a turtle in a urn". There is also an even more ugly sentence called "close the door and beat the dog". People from the Central Plains culture know this word, but who dares to say it in front of the king?Unless you don't want to live anymore!
But before the words were spoken, the glances they passed to each other and the expressions on their faces showed the meaning very clearly.

The king of Tubo heard the discussions among his courtiers, but the discussion lasted for half an hour, and no one came up with a good solution.

The methods proposed by some people sound very rough.

The king of Tubo waved his hand and asked them all to retreat, leaving only a few counselors who had a reasonable understanding of the Central Plains culture, and asked Mr. Cui to be invited.

"Since it is a matter related to Datang, why not invite Mr. Cui to discuss it together."
