Zhuan Xin took the letter from the Tang Dynasty to the Chengdu army and met with Lang Zhengxuan, who was fighting fiercely with Li Longji.

After Lang Zhengxuan read the letter, he quickly handed it to Li Gesang.

Li Gesang was feeling depressed these past few days. He was held back by Li Longji's army. He feared that it would be useless to advance, but he was unwilling to retreat. He was in a dilemma.

After Li Gesang entered the interior of the Tang Dynasty, he robbed a lot of supplies and beautiful women, but what was very annoying was that when most of the Tang Dynasty officials saw the Nanzhao army, they without exception stepped up their defense and transferred supplies. , which made it very difficult for them to occupy county towns one by one in the Central Plains.

Of course, if Li Gesang wanted to, he could attack by force. With the Tang Dynasty's lax defense at this time, it was logical to gain many cities. However, Li Gesang did not do this. He directly pursued Li Longji.

To be honest, if Li Longji hadn't happened to meet Xianyu Zhongtong in the Mianzhu area, who was about to surrender, the 50,000 troops in Jiannan might have disappeared and become rogues. However, Li Longji's arrival saved this army and Xianyu. Zhongtong.

It was precisely because of this army that Li Longji set up defenses on the plank road and repelled Li Gesang's cavalry several times.

The soldiers were very fast, and after the first few waves of offensives were broken down, Li Gesang and Li Longji started a tough battle for nearly two months with Jianmen Pass as the boundary.

Unfortunately, even though the combat effectiveness of Li Gesang's army was much higher than that of Li Longji, it was still difficult to make any progress due to the natural dangers in the middle of Shu. On the contrary, troops from King Qin of the Central Plains came to Li Longji's army in an endless stream. With this ebb and flow, the war may drag into a stalemate.

Just when the tiger was in trouble, the envoy from the Tang Dynasty brought the letter to him. The letter said: Nanzhao took over the prince's letter from the Tang Dynasty and submitted it to His Majesty Nanzhao. When he left, the boy was living in the country. He was greatly favored, and he paid tribute to the two princesses. , This kindness and virtue will never be forgotten. However, today, the world is falling apart, and heroes are flocking to think of a wise king. Although the Tang Dynasty was not talented, it had the ambition to help the country. Now it has occupied Chang'an and gained three new territories. A hundred thousand troops want to compete with An Lushan, Guo Ziyi and others for world supremacy. If it succeeds, it will be famous forever and benefit the people; if it fails, it will have to sacrifice a meager life. Your Majesty, I am the master of Nanzhao. We, the Tang Dynasty, are dignified Han people. There is no way to talk about repayment. If your majesty can understand my ambition, why not maintain an alliance with me and forever be a good friend of Qin and Jin. If one day I really conquer the world, I will not hurt even half of Nanzhao's land. I hope your majesty will judge,"

The more Li Gesang read, the angrier he became. When he saw the end, he suddenly opened his eyes wide, waved his hands, and tore the letter into pieces, turning it into pieces of flying butterflies: "No, this kid from the Tang Dynasty actually dared to betray me. "

Naturally, he was a little surprised. He had just sent an envoy to contact An Lushan, but he didn't expect that this guy seemed to know about his conspiracy in advance and actually came here.

"Your Majesty, before leaving, the general of the Tang Dynasty repeatedly told me that your Majesty treated him with great kindness, but he was a Han Chinese and did not want to take orders from foreign monarchs. If there is any offense, your Majesty must understand," he said ,He is not a person who forgets his roots,"

"Fart, this is a naked betrayal. In vain, I thought highly of him and married two beautiful princesses to him. Throughout the ages, no matter what dynasty or generation, such a thing has rarely happened. In this situation, he actually betrayed me. He is really worse than a pig or a dog. Hmm, do you know what he said in his letter? He actually shamelessly said that he would not harm Nanzhao at all in the future or invade my Nanzhao land. Ridiculous, really ridiculous,”

When Lang Zhengxuan saw it, a strange sneer flashed on his face: "The Tang Dynasty actually dares to betray us. Your Majesty, you first have to ask me whether I agree with the sword in my hand."

"You are my general in Nanzhao, and you came to the army again today. I think it's time for you to show your stance. Tell me who you are willing to follow."

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I am naturally willing to submit to Your Majesty. Although the rebellious ministers of the Tang Dynasty are arrogant for a while, they will eventually be captured by Your Majesty. When the time comes, your Majesty will do whatever you want."

These words made Lang Zhengxuan next to him confused. They all knew that Zhuan Xin was the most trusted subordinate of the Tang Dynasty. How could he betray the Tang Dynasty just by saying betrayal?

"Bold, your words are deceptive. Come here, tie him up. I will serve him well with a stick."

Amidst the shouts, hundreds of soldiers rushed out and surrounded Zhuan Xin, Xin Baijiang, and Ban Lin. If they were not careful, their heads would be dislocated.

Zhuan Xin sneered slightly and did not refute. He let Li Gesang's soldiers tie them up with tough beef tendons. In a short time, the three generals were all tied up by Li Gesang.

"You are my loyal minister, but you actually help me do evil. Tell me, how do you want to die?"

Li Gesang's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and he instinctively felt that Tie Ning, whom he sent to Luoyang, might have been inadvertently known to the Tang Dynasty, and that was how he got the current letter.

The Tang Dynasty was so powerful. It actually had a lot of spies around An Lushan. Otherwise, how could he know that Tie Ning was disguised when he went there and his whereabouts were secretive?

For a moment, Li Gesang felt a little confused. It seemed that his guess was 100% correct. However, the Tang Dynasty now had an army of 100,000 people fighting in the north and south, and a newly recruited army of 300,000 people. , once we face him face to face in the Central Plains, it is indeed difficult to say the outcome. Moreover, the name of the Tang Dynasty resounds throughout the Nanzhao army. Once we actually start fighting, it is almost certain that our soldiers will not have the advantage. , if we don’t fight, it will be equivalent to acknowledging what this guy said in his letter, that is, from now on, he and I, Li Gesang, will be on an equal footing, and we will just be allies.

At this time, he also felt very regretful that he should not have been allowed to lead the army to capture Chang'an first.

As soon as Chang'an got it, this man's greed really increased, and if he tried to deal with him again, he would become an unstoppable force.

"Reporting to your majesty, the general of the Tang Dynasty said that if your majesty asks me how to die, I will tell you that I am not willing to die, because my life is worthy of Nanzhao and your majesty; if your majesty really wants me to die, then after my death, Tang Dynasty The general will definitely attack Dali and avenge me. I thought the general was just talking casually, but I didn't expect that your majesty really asked, so I had to answer truthfully,"
