Take the mall to Datang

Zhang Wenyi and Li Junxian did not understand why Songtsan Gampo would not refuse, they were very puzzled.

Yuan Shan took a full look at the expressions of the two, and began to explain: "Hezhou is Li Jing's place. Now that the two sides are in a stalemate, don't they want to know the details of the troops stationed in Hezhou? Send an envoy to visit the camp. Don’t you have a panoramic view of the situation, you said that this kind of easy investigation of the enemy’s situation, will they send someone here.”

The two nodded one after another. If it were them, they would definitely call someone, but they must be trusted people, but the problem came again. Zhang Wenyi is the governor who knows these things better, and there are not many soldiers in Hezhou now. , if people see the flaws, wouldn't they have to face the main force of Tubo.

"No, no, the situation in Hezhou is well hidden, but what if it is discovered, the risk is too great." Zhang Wenyi said.

Li Junxian said: "I think General Li won't let them see our flaws, he can only let them see our strength."

Li Junxian is more experienced in this regard, and usually in such a situation, both parties are not fools, and the comparison is the messenger's vision and analytical ability.

"Hahaha, don't worry, we don't need to deliberately prepare at all, I'm going to tell Songtsan Gampo River State that there are not enough soldiers, let's see if he rushes over here." Yuan Shan said softly.

"Lan Guogong, this plan is too risky, and the chance of success by deception is not high." Zhang Wenyi said.

"The strategy of doubting soldiers is either true or false. The more realistic we are, the better the effect will be. Even if Songtsan really leads troops here, Hou Junji from Taozhou has been looking for a chance to fight. He must be present when negotiating. , so we are not afraid, and we have anti-aircraft guns, our purpose is to let them take the initiative to attack, counting time, Yuchi Baolin and the others should be able to come back in time." Yuan Shan said.

After the discussion, Zhang Wenyi, under the protection of Hou Junji's cavalry, went to the main force of Tubo on the second day, and challenged them in formation.

Because Zhang Wenyuan is the governor of Lanzhou, his rank is not low, and he is really a bit of a negotiating posture.

Sitting on the horse, my legs are very weak, but I still pretend to think about it.

"Report, the envoys from the Tang Dynasty have come and are waiting in front of the battle." The Tubo soldiers reported nervously.

In Songtsan Gampo's camp there were more than a dozen people, all of them in armor, these were his most powerful generals, and they were eating at the small table.

"Who is the envoy from the Tang Dynasty? Send someone to ask." Songtsan Gampo said, as if he didn't take this matter to heart. In fact, he made up his mind freely. What he thinks is average.

Soon someone came back and said, "My lord, it is said that the person here is Zhang Wenyi, the governor of Lanzhou. He came to talk about the marriage of the princess of Tubo to the Tang Dynasty."

Songtsan Gampo threw the wine glass on the table, and his mustache trembled a little. He disapproved of the Tubo princess getting married, which showed that they were not strong enough in Tubo. They were angry but calmed down quickly, but the surface was still Make a very angry look to show the soldiers.

The effect was very good. Immediately, someone began to say: "How can a Tubo princess marry a Tang Dynasty man? I, Sange, never agree. For the sake of the princess, I am willing to go out and kill the envoys from outside."

With bold words, Songtsan Gampo wanted to stop him intentionally, but the person who just came back immediately said: "Hahaha, Sanger, you have no chance. The envoy of the Tang Dynasty left after saying this, and stayed behind before leaving." A letter."

Then he presented the letter to Songtsen Gampo.

"Come faster and go faster. Songtsan Gampo has never seen such a messenger before." He was at a loss in his heart, completely unable to guess what the other party meant, fear or disdain, and once there was something suspicious, it turned back to imagination Lianpian, Songtsen Gampo is like this.

After Zhang Wenyi left the letter, he returned with Hou Junji's cavalry team. When he returned to Hezhou, he saw Yuanshan was waiting for him outside. In fact, he was wrong. Yuanshan had just arrived in Hezhou with them in the morning. , I want to know about the situation in Hezhou, I just came back and just saw him back.

Zhang Wenyi almost didn't fall when he got off the horse, but fortunately someone nearby helped him.

"Inspector Zhang is so courageous, isn't it very exciting to go to the Tubo camp to challenge him?" Yuan Shan said with a smile.

Chapter 810 is a guest from afar

At the mention of this matter, Zhang Wenyi's legs twitched.

"Courage is forced out." Zhang Wenyi didn't dare to say it, he could only hold it in his heart.

"It's a joke to the Duke of the state, and it's what the subordinates should do." Zhang Wenyi pretended to be calm when he said something that didn't fit his heart.

"You've done a good job." Yuan Shan praised, he really admired Zhang Wenyi, after all, it's rare for a civil servant to have such courage.

"What's the situation, let's talk about it." Yuan Shan asked.

"The Tubo people don't seem to pay much attention to this matter. They are afraid that if Songtsan Gampo doesn't send someone over tomorrow, wouldn't it be embarrassing for Tang Dynasty?" Zhang Wenyi said.

"Let's talk about tomorrow's matter tomorrow. Let's go to General Li to discuss what we have to do today." Yuan Shan said.

The people came into the camp together. Li Junxian is the governor of Lanzhou and has the duty to protect Lanzhou, so he didn't follow.

Entering the tent, I saw Li Jing was studying the map, and there were two generals beside him, they were whispering something.

"Is General Li busy?" Yuan Shan greeted.

Only then did Li Jing notice that someone was coming. Seeing Yuan Shan and Zhang Wenyi, he immediately asked the two generals to retreat, and said, "Duke Lan, I finished my stroll in Hezhou so soon, I thought I would have to wait for you for a long time. Come and discuss tomorrow's arrangements with me."

"Well, it's time to prepare. He is a guest. We should pay attention to the ostentation. Of course, the slogan must be printed out, friendly and informal talks. Everything tomorrow will only represent friendly business and friendly matchmaking. Anyway, it is good to be friendly, but not Able to shoot anything related to the court," Yuan Shan said.

Li Jing and Zhang Wenyi were stunned. Didn't they talk about negotiations? Why did they suddenly turn into friendly talks, and they didn't involve the court, so what's the point of talking.

"Is Lan Guogong able to do this? Isn't the marriage of the Tubo princess a matter of the Tang court? We are talking about marriage as the main thing." Zhang Wenyi asked uncertainly.

"What's wrong with the marriage? Does the princess of Tubo insist on marrying His Majesty or the princes? We have a lot of talents in the Tang Dynasty, those who are talented, those with rich families, and wealthy families abound. Is it possible that the princess will not be able to make it because of hardship? Besides, the matter of marriage is a matter of the young couple when someone gets married. What does it matter about the national system? It is not possible to expect a princess to exchange for eternal peace. " Yuan Shan explained.

Li Jing's heart sank, what's the point of talking like this, wouldn't it mean that Tubo soldiers would welcome in tomorrow after sending them away, his little Hezhou couldn't bear to make trouble.

"Mr. Lan needs to think again about this matter. After all, he is a Tubo princess with a prominent status. Even if the two countries can't make peace forever, how can we temporarily stabilize the situation? Isn't that enough for Datang and His Majesty? "Li Jing said.

"Well, that's the way it is, let's see it tomorrow. We must be fully prepared in Hezhou, and we must be careful not to let the Tubo people take advantage of the loopholes." Yuan Shan said.

Songtsen Gampo and other subordinates in the Tubo camp gathered together to discuss whether to send envoys to Hezhou tomorrow.

Lu Dongzan has always wanted to maintain a friendly relationship with Datang, so he said: "Your Majesty, although the envoys from the Tang Dynasty left in a hurry, after all, the situation of the two parties is here, so don't bother with these red tapes. Knowing what kind of tricks are going to be played, I beg you to go to Hezhou tomorrow."

"Lu Dongzan, you are my powerful arm. If there is any mistake after you go, I don't want to see this." Songtsan Gampo said.

"My lord, the Tang people must be prepared for tomorrow. In fact, I don't think they will attack the envoys. After all, the 20 soldiers and horses of the king are still here. If I really have something wrong, it means that they have already prepared. I hope Your Majesty will not avenge me right away, you must first see the situation clearly before taking action." Lu Dongzan confessed.

Hearing this, Songtsan Gampo was even more reluctant to let him go, but he was the most suitable person under his command.

Although tangled, the decision must be made. Songtsan Gampo is the king of Tubo, and sometimes he has to make some sacrifices for the sake of the country.

"Since you insist on this, I will send three thousand soldiers and horses to escort you tomorrow. I hope the Tang people will not do stupid things." Songtsan Gambo said.

Before discussing whether to go or not, Lu Dongzan had already said that he was going to visit, and then a group of people continued to eat and drink together, otherwise they really had nothing else to do.

The next day, the cavalry vanguard general Doji Pubu and his deputy Luo Jia Suolang led [-] cavalry to escort Lu Dongzan and others to Hezhou. The cavalry team, of course Dojibub's eyes are red.

If Lu Dongzan hadn't been escorted to negotiate today, I'm afraid the charge would have been ordered by this time.

Three thousand cavalrymen waited outside Hezhou, and Lu Dongzan took five or six people to the Hezhou camp by the Tang people's carriage.

Today's Hezhou Camp has a very thorough sanitation, and the patrolling soldiers are arranged in an orderly manner. There is nothing worthy of attention except that the area around the camp is a little deserted.

Lu Dongzan and his party walked into the camp, and at first sight they saw a long table surrounded by various stools. If it wasn't for the exquisite patterned cotton cloth laid on the table, they might have thought it was walking into the tent. Some bandit cottages were built.

Yuan Shannan wore a civil service uniform once, and this time it was very grand. Lu Dongzan was introduced just after he came in. Hearing that there are two founders of the country today, it is very generous. They are all people like the Duke in Tubo. They are all super nobles, but he still understands the Tang people's questions.

Even though both of them are dukes who summoned him, in fact, the right servant of the Duke of Languo is a good official, and he is at the level of the prime minister of the dynasty. The rest are local officials such as Zhang Wenyuan, governor of Lanzhou, and Jiao Junren, governor of Hezhou.

"Hahaha, welcome to the envoy from Tubo." Yuan Shan said, and the translator beside him began to speak Tubo.

Lu Dongzan was very happy. It's not that he has never been an envoy before, but this is the first time he has experienced such a relatively relaxed negotiation occasion, and the meeting was very friendly.
