Chapter 1381 True and false, false and true
Lu Dongzan's letter was gone, as if it was dead in the sea, without any echo.
But the Tubo soldiers could not wait. Seeing that victory was in sight, they stopped moving forward, which made them very puzzled. You must know that the Tubo army was led by slave owners, and they were not easy to mess with. They were always urging Zan Siruo to send troops quickly. We had to quickly loot the entire Tuyuhun, because Lu Dongzan had been hiding in the army and did not show up, but were just manipulating behind the scenes. They could only find Zan Siruo.
Zan Siruo could only come to find his father and said depressedly: "Father, this is not a solution. It is about to completely eliminate Tuyuhun. Don't say whether this letter is true or false. Even if the Tang Dynasty declares war, then fight. We are not the Tubo of the past, and there is no need to look at the face of the Tang Dynasty."
Lu Dong praised: "Our plan this time is to eliminate Tuyuhun. It is not advisable to start a war with the Tang Dynasty before it is completely eliminated, especially here, because the surrounding tribes have not surrendered to us. Once they tend toward the Tang Dynasty, our supplies may not reach the front line. In this case, the war with the Tang Dynasty will only put our 100,000 troops in a dilemma."
Zan Siruo said, "But this is not a solution. My father often teaches us that this kind of motivation will stop and decline after three times. If we wait like this, we will probably damage our morale."
Lu Dongzan frowned and thought for a moment, and said, "You go and write another letter to Han Yi, and you will say that we have no idea of being an enemy of the Tang Dynasty. We just don't trust Tuyuhun anymore and let Han Yi leave Dafeichuan as soon as possible. Three days later, we will take an attack."
"yes!"
Han Yi read the letter he sent this time. After reading it, he handed it to Princess Honghua. He asked Duofu again: "If Tubo attacks, how long can we defend?"
Duofu was stunned, not sure why.
Princess Honghua immediately handed the letter to Duofu.
Duofu looked at it, looked scared, and thought for a little while, saying, "Tubo now knows the reality of our army, it's really hard to say."
Han Yi said: "You just say how long can you resist at least?"
Duofu thought about it and said, "Ten days."
Ten days are very short. In fact, he is confident that he will resist for half a month to twenty days, and he just wants to leave some room for himself.
"Enough!"
Han Yi said confidently: "Ten days are enough, and within ten days, reinforcements will arrive."
Fu Li thought to himself that there is not even a shadow now, let alone ten days, I may not be able to get there for a month.
Princess Honghua suddenly said, "Why should I send a letter to Lu Tubo?"
Han Yi smiled and said, "No, let Lu Dongzan's old fox go suspicious."
After the meeting, Han Yi, Chen Shuozhen and Ono returned to their house.
"If Tubo really attacks three days later, will the Tang Dynasty really declare war on Tubo?" Chen Shuozhen asked.
Han Yi frowned and said, "It's better to be delayed for one day."
Chen Shuozhen said: "Then should we also make plans to retreat?"
Han Yi did not answer this question.
However, Han Yi is not wrong. Lu Dongzan is looking forward to Han Yi's reply at this time. You have to give him some attitude, but after waiting for two days, he has not seen Han Yi's letter, and his heart is also stirring up. With the demise of the Turks, the Tang Dynasty and Tubo are the most powerful military regimes in this area. If they fight, it will be a big scene and no one dares to declare war easily.
Therefore, he felt that Han Yi's book of war was too casual, and he also believed in his heart that Han Yi was scaring him, but he felt very guilty when facing the Tang Dynasty.
On the third day, Han Yi still did not reply, and the Tubo soldiers were already sharpening their knives and rushing to the pigs and sheep.
"Father, everyone is ready. As long as you give your order, your child promises to break through Dafeichuan within seven days." Zan Siruo came to Lu Dongzan's tent with full arms.
Lu Dongzan looked sad and glanced at his son. The arrow had to be fired on the string. He nodded slightly, "At dawn tomorrow, start the attack, and must fight quickly."
"The boy knows."
Zan Siruo clasped his fists and left.
Lu Dongzan frowned and said, "Han Yi, are you really just scaring me? If that's the case, you would be too underestimating me, Lu Dongzan."
In fact, this war book is obviously not formal, it is just a letter from Han Yi. Whoever takes it seriously is a fool, but Lu Dongzan knows Han Yi and believes that Han Yi is unlikely to do such a technical thing. He originally thought that Han Yi was buying time for himself to escape, so he gave Han Yi three days. You run away quickly, and I dare not kill you, but Da Feichuan showed no sign of retreat, which made him very confused.
The next day, at dawn, the torches in the valley had not yet been removed, and the Tubo army was ready, just waiting for the commander to give the command.
The Tuyuhun soldiers in the valley were also waiting for the arrival of the enemy. Even Princess Honghua personally took charge and directed the soldiers to meet the enemy. The atmosphere of Dafeichuan had solidified. Seeing that the century-old regime of Tuyuhun had reached the edge of the cliff.
"Major General, the time is almost over."
A deputy general told Zan Siruo.
Zan Siruo nodded, and at this critical moment, a flying cavalry arrived in time, "Major General, Major General."
Zan Xiruo couldn't help frowning when he saw this person.
The man came to Zan Siruo and whispered: "Major General, the Prime Minister has orders, and the entire army will return to the camp immediately."
Zan Siruo's expression changed and said, "Why is this?"
The man said, "I don't know."
Zan Siruo still didn't want to give up, and his muscles were so good that he didn't fight. This was really embarrassing. So he ordered the entire army to stand by here first, and then he brought a small team of guards back to the barracks.
Those slave owners were all stupid. What was going on? The shapes were like this. You didn't even beat them. You were joking.
"Father! Father!"
Zan Xiruo was already depressed and did not be polite. He broke into Lu Dongzan's tent and said, "Father, why is this?"
Lu Dongzan pointed to the table and said, "These are two urgent letters just sent from the north, you can read them yourself."
Zan Siruo was stunned for a moment, then picked up two letters, looked at Lu Dong for a while, and then looked at Lu Dong in surprise and said, "Father, this--!"
Lu Dong praised: "Just a while ago, Su Dingfang sent Shule to join forces with Xiao Bolu to attack Da Bolu, and Pei Xingjian led his troops out of Khotan to attack Chuyue and Gongyue's two troops."
The small and small Bolu that he mentioned was originally a country, and it happened to be on the road to the Western Regions, that is, the Kashmir region in later generations, which was an absolute strategic location. At the beginning, Tubo was operating there, because the east was the most powerful empire in the world, and Tubo could only expand to the northwest, and mastering the key points to the Western Regions was very important. But the same was true for the Tang Dynasty. In the battle to eliminate Ashinahelu, Pei Xingjian led his troops there and won over some of the forces, so he divided it into small and small Bolu. Xiao Bolu was supported by the Tang Dynasty, and occupation was the main channel to Central Asia, which was equivalent to opening up the Silk Road.
Dabolu was supported by Tubo, close to Tubo. Gongyue, the second tribe of Chuyue, was the remaining remnants of the remnants who were beaten by Su Dingfang at that time. The real Gongyue, the second tribe of Chuyue, had long been occupied by the Tang Dynasty and established the Protectorate. The remnants of these two tribes fled to the border of Tubo and received the support of Lu Dongzan to build them to settle north of the Kunlun Mountains. The purpose was also very obvious, and they were placed in a chess piece in the northwest, which was also considered a buffer area between Tubo and the Tang Dynasty.
At that time, the Tang Dynasty had no intention of confronting Tubo, so they went there. After all, they occupied such a large piece of land and scored some points for Tubo. After all, Tubo was not easy to mess with.
Zan Siruo was stunned. Why did the war suddenly start over there and said, "Is that Feng Zhan Shu true?"
This action is too big, it is clearly the rhythm of declaring war!
Lu Dong exclaimed and said, "Whether it is true or fake, this battle is probably the end."
Zan Xiruo was unwilling to say: "Father, Tuyuhun is already our turtle, how can we just let it go so easily?"
Lu Dongzan sighed and said, "Child, this is why I am eager to take down Tuyuhun. Since the Tang Dynasty destroyed the Western Turks, I have been unable to sleep or eat, because in this way, the Tang Dynasty can send troops from various protectors in the northwest to attack us. Although our army is stronger than the Tang Dynasty, our population, financial resources and material resources are still far inferior to that of the Tang Dynasty. Once a war begins, we will only lose sight of one thing. Therefore, to win the Tang Dynasty, we will first seize the northwest, first seize the northwest, first capture the Tuyuhun.
If we attack Tuyuhun regardless of everything, it would be fine if the Tang Dynasty did not help. Once the Tang Dynasty really declared war, our 100,000 elite troops would definitely fall into this place. The Tang Dynasty could send out Guanzhong to fight us, but what should we do in the northwest? If Su Dingfang defeated Dabolu, he could go south to our Kyoto, and the Tang Dynasty could also send troops to Yizhou to cut off our retreat. In cooperation with Pei Xingjian's troops in the north, he would form a siege against us. Although we may not necessarily lose, it is not a wise move to take the risk of gamble on this battle at this time, because we are not prepared for this. Anyway, Tuyuhun is already dying now. If it is allowed to survive for a while, it will not be able to make a fortune."
Just then, a general came in and bowed to Lu Dongzan and Zan Xiruo, saying, "Da Xiang, news came from Helong area that Li Ji led his army to Liangzhou."
Lu Dongzan frowned and said, "Does it be clear how many people Li Ji has brought?"
The general shook his head and said, "But according to the news from the spy, Li Ji came very quickly and might not have brought many troops, but Liangzhou had heavy troops."
After hearing this, Lu Dongzan said to Zan Siruo again: "Let them all retreat!"
If Zan Xi is young and energetic, she has heard of Li Ji’s reputation. The Tang Dynasty has sent out even aces. This time she dared not be arrogant anymore and nodded, "See your order."
With a command, the entire army returned.
But this made Tuyuhun's soldiers confused. Before the war started, why did they leave?
"Ke Dun, father, the enemy retreated, retreated!"
Fu Li rushed into the big tent excitedly, without saying a word.
Han Yi immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
Chen Shuozhen saw it all and laughed secretly. He was really not sure.
Duofu stood up excitedly and said, "What did you say, the enemy retreat?"
Fuli nodded.
Duofu suddenly woke up and looked at Han Yi and said, "Shilarious Minister Han, is it that the reinforcements from the Tang Dynasty have arrived."
Before he finished speaking, a general of the Tang army walked in and said, "Report to Minister Han, Governor Zhao of Liangzhou, is here."
Fu Li said, "Father, it's true that reinforcements are coming."
Duofu wondered, "The reinforcements came so quickly!"
"Is it more powerful to be quick?" Han Yi laughed and said, "I'll go to welcome Governor Zhao first." After that, he hurried out.
Duofu and the others hurriedly followed him out.
After leaving the camp, I came to the east of Dafeichuan. I saw a team of people galloping towards me from afar. The leader was the governor of Liangzhou, but there were only two or three thousand people.
Duofu was frightened. When did the Tang army become so powerful? Two or three thousand people scared the Tubo army away.
After a while, Zhao Chiman came to Han Yi, got off the horse and said anxiously: "Shilarious Minister Han, Shilar Han."
When Zhao Chiman saw Han Yi, he was both surprised and happy and rushed over.
"Governor Zhao!"
Han Yi raised his hand and walked up quickly.
"Shishou Minister Han---!"
Before Zhao Chiman could finish his words, Han Yi hugged him and whispered: "Did Your Majesty ask you to pick me up?"
Zhao Chiman gasped and said, "Your Majesty asked you to take Princess Honghua to quickly break back to Chang'an."
"Okay! OK!"
Seeing that he was panting, Han Yi nodded with a smile and said, "Is Sikong here?"
Zhao Chiman said: "Sikong should have arrived in Liangzhou now."
"That's good!" Han Yi said: "Remember, don't say you come to pick me up later. Just say you are the vanguard. Sikong has already entered Liangzhou with his army."
Zhao Chiman said in a confused look: "Why?"
Han Yi said: "I will explain this to you later. Remember, don't say it wrong."
