Just when Xue Rengui was looking at the Tubo camp from a distance, also on the edge of the Min River, he saw a few figures standing on a big rock by the river. The young man had a heroic face, narrow eyes, and a hint of cunning.

Se, he was wearing armor and had a golden sword on his waist. He was looking across the river from a distance. This man was Qinling, the Tubo general who was ordered to march eastward to the Central Plains and harass the border of the Tang Dynasty. Originally, his branch

The men and horses were nothing more than harassment, but the young Qinling was unwilling to just be a partial leader. The Gar family was a large family in Tubo, and there were many elites in the family. Qinling was young and full of ambitions. He not only led

With the more than 10,000 soldiers and horses given by Songtsen Gampo, he also recruited soldiers from the family tribe. The army was about 30,000. Attacking the border of Songzhou in the Tang Dynasty not only had to contain the weapons of the Tang Dynasty, but also looked for opportunities.

Invading the hinterland of the Tang Dynasty.

Of course, no one expected that a young man like Qin Ling would be so courageous and very talented in military affairs. As soon as he entered the border of the Tang Dynasty, he killed thousands of troops of the Tang Dynasty's vanguard and beheaded the generals of the Tang Dynasty's vanguard.

The state surrounded them, and they were about to break the city.

At this time, if other Tubo generals had captured Songzhou and then looted it, they would have completed their mission, but Qinling did not do this. If it was just like this, how could it show the majesty of the Ga family?

, his eyes were not only aimed at the population and wealth of Songzhou, but more importantly, Xue Rengui's army came to rescue Songzhou and defend against the invasion of the Tibetan army. They were also young people. Qinling didn't think he was any worse than Xue Rengui.

, not to mention that I still have a good location at the moment. This is even more so.

"Brother, I'm back." At this moment, the crowd behind them dispersed, and they saw a young and handsome general leading a few soldiers over. This person was Qinling's younger brother Zanpo. Qinling had five brothers.

The eldest brother left early and only he and Zan Po were able to go to the battlefield. It has to be said that Tubo lives a majestic life. When they were a few years old, they began to practice martial arts and prepare to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy. This is consistent with their

Customs and habits have a lot to do with the environment. The Ga family is not only full of capable ministers, but also military generals. This is the case for this Zanpo. He was ordered by Qinling to inquire around the Minjiang River.

News.

"How are you?" Qin Ling asked impatiently.

I have already asked a few Tubo people who often hang out near Songzhou. There are only two places on the river within a few hundred miles that are suitable for large-scale military crossings. One is Qinglongchang here, and the other is

It's the Huanglong River downstream." Po Zan didn't dare to neglect and said quickly: "1 Brother Bu has ordered three 3,000 troops to be temporarily stationed in Huanglong River and then come back to wait for the dispatch of the elder brother.

"Well, that's very good." Qin Ling nodded and said: "I have found out clearly that the general of the Tang Army opposite is called Xue Rengui. According to the news from my father, this Xue Rengui is very famous. Not only is he a great leader of the Tang Dynasty,

The closed disciple of General Li Jing is more importantly good at fighting.

We have to be careful!"

"If he was a good fighter, he wouldn't let his forwards underestimate the enemy and rush in." Zan Po said disdainfully.

"The Second General said... that's the purpose." The speaker was another young man with a gloomy face.

"What? Ju Saruo, you have a different opinion?" Zanpo said dissatisfied. Ju Saruo was a nobleman of Tibet and had good relations with Qinling. This time he also went with the army. This is also Songtsen Gan, an outstanding figure of the younger generation of Tubo.

When Bu sent these people out, it also meant to train these people.

"The reason why Guo Daofeng failed was, on the one hand, because the opponent underestimated the enemy and advanced rashly, but more importantly, the Tang army did not understand our Tibetan warriors, so it failed. I won't talk about Guo Daofeng.

Let's talk about this Xue Rengui. According to the news from the Prime Minister, this person is the marshal appointed by the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. He has outstanding military achievements and is deeply trusted by the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. This is enough to show that this person is extraordinary. General, it is better to be careful.

." Ju Saruo said with a smile.

"This is natural." Qin Ling nodded and said with a smile: "It's not that I look down on Xue Rengui, it's just that this person is really not our opponent. Haha! As long as we surround Songzhou and don't attack it

Xue Rengui and his army will not only send troops to attack, in this way, our army can easily weaken the Tang army a lot. This is called encirclement and reinforcement in the Tang Dynasty's military books. I heard that it is

What the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty said, but what he didn’t expect was that I would now use this strategy here. Haha!”.

"Brother, it's a pity that we are not facing the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty this time. Otherwise, we can face the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty once and let him see my Tibetan warriors." Zan Po sneered.

"The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty is not a simple figure, and even the other generals under him are not easy to mess with." Qin Ling waved his hand lightly and said: "Huanglong River and Qinglongchang are both along the Minjiang River and are the most suitable for large armies.

The ferry crossing the river is even closer to Songzhou. If Xue Rengui wants to rescue Songzhou as soon as possible, he can only start from here. Otherwise, he might as well enter Jiangxi from Minzhou and Maozhou upstream and rescue Songzhou. As long as we hold on to it.

The ferry can clearly block Xue Rengui from the ferry, but he has to send troops to cross the river. In this way, he can only gather the soldiers to watch our archers."

"In that case, brother, why don't I lead five thousand troops to garrison Huanglong River, and brother himself will lead eighteen thousand men to garrison Qinglongchang. This will be enough to keep Xue Rengui out of the Minjiang River." Zan Po said casually.

"Yes." Ju Saruo also nodded and said: "The opposite side is Xue Rengui's army. If he crosses the river, he will definitely send troops from Qinglongchang ferry. In this way, the main force of our army should also be placed at Qinglongchang.

, As for Huanglong River, although I have not seen it, as long as our army has the upper hand, even if the opponent has an army of 10,000, it is impossible to attack our battlefield. Don't the Han people have a saying called "attacking by half-crossing"?

?If they attack, we only need to shoot arrows. Hehe, by then the bodies of Tang soldiers will be everywhere on the water of the Minjiang River. The upper and lower parts of the Minjiang River will also be dyed red with blood. If we can really see such a scene

, I'm really looking forward to it. General, you have to give me this opportunity!" Po Zan also had a sneer on her face, as if she had seen corpses of Tang Army soldiers everywhere on the Minjiang River.

"No, I will be stationed at Huanglong River myself. Zan Po, you will lead an army of five thousand and station at Qinglong Field." Qin Ling suddenly waved his hand and said: "The people of the Tang Dynasty are cunning. This Xue Rengui can be so trusted by the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. This person must be

He is not a simple character. On the surface, they put the army at Qinglong Field, but in fact, he would not do this. He knew that my army was stationed opposite him, so how could he place the crossing point here?

If it were me, I wouldn't do it. Qinglongchang may be the best place for him to cross the river. What's true is false, but what's false is true. Look at the other side, I don't believe that Xue Rengui placed the crossing point in front of us so easily?

Therefore, it is better for me to lead the army to garrison Huanglong River, and you to lead an army to garrison Qinglong Field. If there is any abnormality on the opposite side, please notify me immediately."

My mother-in-law's face changed and she said quickly.

"Hey, it's difficult for Xue Rengui to see the actual situation of our army at this time, but we can clearly see the opponent's camp from our high position.

Ju Saruo said with a smile.

"Okay, let's do it! I will withdraw our troops to Huanglong River overnight." Qin Ling waved his hand and said: "Although our army occupies a certain geographical advantage, if we withdraw during the day, the other side can see clearly. This is the only way.

It’s time to go.”

"Yes, I'll go get ready." Zan Po nodded quickly and turned around to get ready.

"Brother, do you think how our army should cross the river at this time?" Xue Rengui sat on the stone, Zhou Qing and others were also sitting around. There was a roasted whole lamb on the fire, and nine people were sitting together.

, and started eating with a smile.

"If you were Qinling, how would you choose your location? In Huanglong River or Qinglongchang?" Xue Rengui pointed to the Tubo camp opposite and said lightly: "Qinling is not a simple character!"

"Brother, according to my opinion, it is better to cross the river from upstream or downstream. You cannot cross the river from Huanglong River and Qinglongchang. Crossing the river from here will mean sending the lives of our soldiers into the hands of the enemy. Ten points

It’s not worth it. The knowledge taught in martial arts is how to obtain the greatest victory at the smallest cost. This has been the case with famous generals of all ages since ancient times. If we forcefully cross the river, we may be able to reach the shore with the help of our Tang Dynasty soldiers, but we will also suffer casualties.

Countless. How many soldiers and horses do we have to resist the Tibetan army by then? Although crossing the river from other places may waste a lot of time, but cutting firewood does not waste time sharpening the knife! We can reduce losses.

, and the best way is to cross the river as quickly as possible and fight the Tibetan soldiers." Li Qinghong and others also nodded, obviously agreeing with this view.

"What you said makes sense. But you forgot one important thing." Xue Rengui sighed deeply, pointed at Songzhou City opposite and said, "Songzhou City is a bait, constantly tempting me."

Tang's army went to attack. If our army did not attack, they would attack Songzhou City and kill all the people inside. If this is the case, we can certainly preserve our strength, and maybe we will defeat Qinling in the future, but

What about the people in Songzhou City? Can they be resurrected after death? His Majesty once warned us, why are soldiers born? Isn't it to protect the country and the people, and protect these people from being harmed by Tibetan soldiers? If Liansong

If the people in the city cannot be protected, why should we serve as soldiers? How can we serve His Majesty?"

"However, if we soldiers were to simply charge forward, there would be a lot of casualties!" Zhou Qing sighed softly.

"It would be great if Qin Ling and his troops could be mobilized together." Xue Rengui sighed softly.

"General, Your Majesty has sent someone here to convey a secret decree. General, you should hurry up and greet him." At this moment, a soldier came over.

"Secret edict?" Xue Rengui's expression changed and he said, "Where is the father-in-law who delivered the edict?"

"General, you are not the father-in-law in the palace." The soldier said with a hint of surprise on his face.

"Not father-in-law? Let's go and have a look." Xue Rengui, Zhou Qing and others looked at each other.

Xue Rengui quickly stood up and walked towards the camp.

"Jinyiwei No. 3530 saw General Xue." Xue Rengui and others had just entered the camp when they saw a thin man standing in the middle of the tent.

"Jin Yiwei?"

The first time I saw Jin Yiwei, he was dressed so ordinary.

, "This is the secret decree written by His Majesty three days ago. General, please check it carefully." The Jinyiwei spy quickly cut open the leather boots and took out a piece of paper from inside.

"The secret decree written three days ago?"

Lu Zhaoci should be nearby.

, "Haha! This is also top secret. The general should know that no one can know your Majesty's whereabouts." The spy said with a smile.

"Oh!" Xue Rengui nodded when he heard this and said, "I almost forgot about this. By the way, is there any news from Kunlun Town now?" Although there was a smile on his face, there was a look of caution in his eyes.

But it has not been eliminated.

"Haha! The general is really very careful." The secret agent said with a smile: "The general is doubting our Jin Yiwei's ability to deliver news!"

, "Haha! Your Majesty should be in Kunlun Town at the moment. To get here from Kunlun Town, not to mention the dangerous terrain of Mountain 11, it takes one or two months to get here. But this secret agent was able to get His Majesty's news in three days.

It will be delivered here within a few days, so I have to be careful." Zhou Qing sneered.

, "This is not something you should know." The secret agent's smiling face suddenly turned grim, and he snorted coldly: "When I entered the Jinyiwei, I left a mark on my body, please see."

"The secret agent lowered his head. Only then did Xue Rengui and others find a line of writing on the back of his neck. It read, "Jin Three Thousand Five Hundred and Thirty". The handwriting was very small. "Unless you look carefully, it's really true."

can not tell.

, "There are many offenses, please don't blame the secret agent." Xue Rengui only formally confirmed the identity of this person at this time, and hurriedly said.

"Haha, we and the Jinyiwei are in the dark, so of course we are not known or welcomed by others. General, I will take my leave first." The Jinyiwei spies did not dare to stay, so they bowed their hands and left.

"The Tang Dynasty is prosperous and prosperous today because of the existence of such people!"

Xue Rengui pointed at the man's back and sighed softly. Zhou Qing and others also nodded, with a hint of admiration on their faces. Although these Jin Yiwei have a bad reputation, in fact, it is precisely because

Only these people who hide in the dark can make the Tang army invincible. In fact, the relationship between the army and the Jin Yiwei is much better than that of the civil servants.

"Brother, what does His Majesty's secret decree say?" Zhou Qing curiously looked at the note in Xue Rengui's hand and asked.
