A scholar of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty

Gu Qing also saw the gushing oil, looked up to the sky and smiled, "Hahaha! It's developed."

The stones sprayed for three days and three nights before stopping. Fortunately, the digging was not deep, and the oil wells were full of oil. Gu Qing explained to Wang Jin to use these oils as incendiary bombs, and bring more if you can. These things are sharp weapons in war.

Chang'an, Li Er laughed three times when he saw the good news.

The court meeting unfolded, and there was a lot of discussion in the court hall about this victory. Changsun Wuji stepped out of the court and said, "I think that General Yuchi should recover the Hexi Corridor as soon as possible, and talk with Tubo about peace and recuperation."

Li Er nodded thoughtfully after listening to the words.

Fang Xuanling walked out of court and said, "Your Majesty! Tubo inexplicably invaded the Hexi Corridor, and everyone knows its ambitions. I think the peace talks are inappropriate. Songtsan Gambo must give Tang an explanation!"

After Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji finished speaking, the court fell into silence. The two had different opinions.

Many veterans in the court were thinking about the problem, and many people thought of Gu Qing's position. Many people could see the arm wrestling between Gu Qing and Changsun Wuji, and Fang Xuanling was Gu Qing's teacher, so the taste was not difficult to see .

Li Er sat with a half-smile.

The atmosphere was not right, and Li Chengqian stood up and said, "Father, my ministers thought that Songtsen Gampo would come to Chang'an to apologize first, and if Songtsan Gampo did not come, we would decide on the Hexi Corridor."

On the scene, the mother-in-law said the mother-in-law was right, and the father said the father-in-law was right. Cheng Yaojin rarely interrupted, and stood calmly.

A court meeting had no results, Li Er saw that the heat was almost ready and announced his next court, Fang Xuanling stepped out of the Tai Chi Palace step by step, Changsun Wuji walked all the way behind Fang Xuanling and looked at each other's figure with a solemn expression.

Chapter 215 Disdainful Mercy

In the Hexi Corridor, Gu Qing looked at the soldiers calming down their worries. Songtsan Gampo is quite smart. After all, the population of Tubo is not large. This battle has completely awakened Tubo. Playing in the Middle East and starting diplomacy?I have to say that this idea is very good, but the question is, can Songtsan Gampo get food?

News of success also came from Xue Yantuo's Shuozhou battlefield. General Li Ji also broke through Xue Yantuo's army and recovered Shuozhou.

Discussions began in the big tent, and Su Dingfang said to Yu Chigong, "General, the general thinks that we will take advantage of the victory to pursue. If Songtsan Gampo brings reinforcements again, we may have to go through another bitter battle. Why don't we take advantage of the current spirit of the Tubo army?" Unstable, we will kill all the way."

Yu Chigong looked at Gu Qing, "What do you think?"

"There is not enough gunpowder, and we are still doing it now." Gu Qing said, "Su Dingfang is right, I think this opportunity should not be missed, we can send a small group of troops to attack Tubo along the way, so that their morale cannot be stabilized .”

Fang Yiai asked tentatively, "I..."

"Say!" Yuchi Gong said.

"I heard from my father a long time ago." Fang Yiai said, "The trade route from Tubo across the Western Regions has been leading to Dashi. These years, the trade route has been unstable. From the violent Sui Dynasty to the present For hundreds of years, Dashi has been trying to control this trade route, I think they will definitely intervene in the war between us and Tubo, and they will send a large army, we have to prepare early."

Hearing the word "trade route", Gu Qing also woke up suddenly. The word "Silk Road" flashed in his mind, and he thought about how there are many countries in the Middle East.

"Dashi." Yu Chigong thought about it, "Isn't it just a bunch of barbarians?"

Food domestic

Songtsan Gampo successfully lobbied with the king of Dashi. He looked at the two men beside him. These two men were from Guanzhong but could speak the dialect of Tianzhu, and even the language of Dashi. What is the origin of these two men?

Tianzhu's war elephants were taken from Tianzhu people.

Hexi Corridor

Under the Qilian Mountains, tens of thousands of war horses were pulled from the grasslands. These horses were all pulled from the grasslands of the Turkic people. The Tang Dufu Mansion has long been built on the Turkic grasslands.

The war horse neighed, Wang Jin and Yu Chigong stayed behind to make gunpowder and grenades.

Cheng Chumo looked at Tang Xuanzang who had been chanting sutras and said to Gu Qing, "He has been chanting sutras for several days without end."

"Let him go." Gu Qing got on the horse nonchalantly.

Bianji came to Gu Qing and said, "Benefactor Gu, can you kill less people, I am merciful."

"I'm sorry, I never believed in what you said, and I'm not as merciful as you." Gu Qing looked at Bianji dismissively.

"You!" Bian Ji pointed at Gu Qing, "You killed innocent people indiscriminately, and there will be retribution."

Pulling the rein, Gu Qing got off his horse and walked up to Bian Ji, "Who do you say is innocent?"

Facing the gloomy Gu Qing, Bianji retreated step by step, "You...what do you want to do?"

"Who do you say is innocent." Gu Qing approached step by step, "The Tubo people are raging in the Hexi Corridor. They killed so many soldiers of our Tang Dynasty and so many unarmed caravans. Do you think the Tubo people are innocent? Is it? In your eyes, our Datang soldiers deserve to die?"

Cheng Chumo stepped forward and punched Bianji in the face, knocking him to the ground on the spot.

Gu Qing knelt down and looked at the embarrassed Bian Ji, "What does your mercy have to do with us?"

"There is reincarnation in the law of heaven, Gu Qing, if you kill people like this, there will be retribution!" Bian Ji gritted his teeth and said.

"I'll make you retribution!" Cheng Chumo stepped forward and punched him down, "I'll make you retribution, who are you cursing to death?! Believe it or not, I'll kill you first!"

Cheng Chumo beat the defense machine, Gu Qing watched coldly.

Protecting his head, Bian Ji endured Cheng Chumo's beating, and the surrounding soldiers all looked over.

It wasn't until Cheng Chumo's beating stopped that Bianji slowly opened his eyes, and wanted to stand up from the ground in embarrassment. Cheng Chumo stepped on Bianji again, "Remember, I won't kill you today because I am right For your mercy, if you can return to Chang'an alive, remember to burn incense and kowtow to our soldiers of the Tang Dynasty!"

"That's enough, that's enough!" Fang Yiai pulled Cheng Chumo away, "What are you fussing about with a bald donkey?"

"Bah!" Cheng Chumo spit at the defense machine.

"Hurry up!" Su Dingfang said while riding a horse, "Don't delay the military plane."

Su Dingfang, Gu Qing, Cheng Chumo, Fang Yiai, the four teenagers rode their horses and led an army of [-] soldiers down the Hexi Corridor towards the territory of Tubo.

Yu Chigong led the army to sit in the rear, and as a support, he had to wait for the explosives to be produced.

Wang Jin watched the army leave the barracks, and said to Yu Chigong, "The general wants to go too."

"Let the young people go, they are more aggressive than me, the old man can't make a lot of troubles when he is old." Yuchi said with a smile.

"In fact, the Hexi Corridor can be said to have been taken back, and I think we can wait for the news from the court." Wang Jin said with a smile.

"I can't wait." Yu Chigong said, "It will take three days at the fastest to travel from Chang'an to the Hexi Corridor. Now we have very few firearms left. If the Tubo people regain their vitality, we will be unable to resist again. The battlefield changes rapidly and it depends on who goes first. Seize the opportunity, that is to say, you will not accept the fate of the emperor outside."

Wang Jin understood what Yu Chigong was saying. This may be the last time Yuchi Gong went out to fight. It is biased to say that he will not be ordered by the king outside. If something goes wrong, Yu Chigong will still be responsible, even if there is no His Majesty will be suspicious of Wei Chigong's behavior if something goes wrong.

It seems that this general, Wei Chigong, will live in Chang'an like General Li Jing and General Qin Qiong in the future. A new generation will replace the old, and the Tang Dynasty will change.

With the sound of horseshoes, the [-] troops bypassed the pass of the Hexi Corridor and came all the way to the territory of Tubo.

Lu Dongzan was preparing his army to attack the Hexi Corridor again, when a Tubo man ran up and shouted, "Military division! There are a large number of Tang troops behind us!"

"Rear?" Lu Dongzan looked back, "What are they trying to do!? Surround us?"

"They headed towards my plateau, as if they had no intention of encircling us."

Lu Dongzan thought in his heart, if he was cut off by the Tang army in the rear, he would be a lone army in the Hexi Corridor, and if he was surrounded by the Tang army in the rear, he would be a dead end. As a military adviser, Lu Dongzan has heard many stories about the battles in Guanzhong, and even secretly bought military books.
