Chapter 486 The Return of the Hero

The Galqin Mausoleum looked ahead, which was the only city he was familiar with on the plateau - Luo.

Although there is no less peace and tranquility than in the past, there is no sign of military disaster.

In the northwest, the nearby completed Potala Palace stands majestically among the remnants of the snow of the Red Mountain. In the adjacent Buddhist hall, the Buddha fragrance revolves around the Sanskrit sound.

The Kar Qinling, who never believed in Buddhism, closed his eyes and closed his eyes in front of his chest. He whispered, "God and Buddha bless you, and finally came back in time!"

The left and right generals saw this move of the Chalqin Mausoleum, and they also breathed a sigh of relief. After months of expedition, no one in the whole army is close to the brink of physical collapse. Previously, I tried my best to rescue the king city with a breath. Now when I see that the king city is sound, everyone relaxes and suddenly feels boundless fatigue. They all want to lie on horseback and fall asleep.

At this time, countless people, monks and cavalry came out of the royal city in front of them, and set up colorful flags, gongs, drums and military crowds outside the city.

In front of this scene, the Chalqinling and others are very familiar with it. In the past, every time the Garqin Mausoleum returned from Golmud to the King's City or returned from an expedition, Zamp would arrange such a grand ceremony to show his welcome.

Today, it is no exception.

But in the heart of the Chalqin Mausoleum, there is no joy of going home or the glory and sense of achievement of triumph. On the contrary, he felt very ashamed, awkward and annoyed, just like learning calligraphy from Mr. Han Xue when he was a child. He clearly wrote a line of handwriting shaped like an earthworm crawling that no one could recognize, and was also the feeling of being displayed and praised by the teacher in public.

Several cavalrymen came forward, and the first one held Zanpu's sky-blue god oxtail knot. It was Zanpu's close servant, and it was recognized by the Chalqinling.

When he was about to disap off the horse, the servant said, "Zan Pujun's life, the marshal doesn't have to disap off the horse. As usual, the last minister will lead the horse to lead the way and enter the palace!"

The heart of the garqinling tightened again, and his face was also tense, which was very ugly.

But countless people are staring at him, and it is inconvenient to attack. I had to nod quietly.

Zanpu got off his horse, holding Zanpu's knot high in one hand, holding the rein of the Chalqin Mausoleum in the other, and walking towards the palace.

Shengle played, the monks sang the scriptures, sprinkled the divine water to exorcise evil and wish auspicious, and the people sang and danced to the music and cheered.

In the past, at this moment, the Chalqin Mausoleum was the most happy and fulfilling. But today... But I feel like I've been stripped naked and put in a cage to show off the streets.

The taste is like a knife and a dagger.

"Zanpu, what do you want to do?" At this moment, there is only this only thought left in the heart of the Galqin Mausoleum.

Entering the palace is like entering another world. In sharp contrast to the hustle and bustle outside the palace, there is a solemn atmosphere in the palace, and everyone's face is very solemn and suffocatingly silent.

The door of the main hall of the palace is closed, and there is no such thing as the past, gathering the Wenwu Hundred Palace and Zanpu to welcome the triumphant Marshal of the Chalqin Mausoleum.

He walked to the gate and said, "Marshal, please disap off the horse and go to the West Zen Buddha Hall to see Zanpu."

Without saying much, he got off the horse and was ready to move forward. The waiter, who was supposed to be leading the way in front of him, stopped and seemed to be intentional or unintentionally, glance at the knife at the waist of the Chaling Mausoleum.

A nameless anger rose in the heart of Garqinling, gritted his teeth, and still untied the knife and handed it to the servant.

"You can go now!!"

"Marshal, forgive me!! The last minister knew that the marshal could go to the palace with a sword. But in the peaceful place of the Buddha Hall, it is not appropriate to carry a blade into it!"

"Stop talking nonsense and lead the way!"

"Yes...Yes!"

Following the waiter all the way to the West Zen Buddha Hall, the eyebrows of the garqin Mausoleum became tighter and tighter. He has made the worst plan in his heart - "Since I have lost the battle, I also admit it!" At most, it is to deprive me of my officers and soldiers according to the law and hang a fox's tail on my face. No matter how cruel it is, it is just to be buried alive in the deep well together with the whole family!"

"It's just a death, what are you afraid of! I, Garqinling, am loyal to the country and have a clear conscience!"

When he walked into the Buddhist hall, the face of the Chalqin Mausoleum was blue, and he was full of death.

But when he saw the scene in front of him, his face immediately changed.

In the Buddhist hall, the Buddha's fragrance is pleasant and the wooden fish is quiet, with a gentle and peaceful atmosphere. Zanpu knelt in front of the Buddha and was burning incense and chanting scriptures; next to him stood an old man in noble clothes, holding Buddha beads in his hand and closing his eyes slightly, meditating the Buddha's name in his mouth.

The old man is the biological father of the Chalqin Mausoleum, the great theory of the Tubo Empire (the first assistant prime minister), and the gal Dongzan Yusong! ( The full name of gar Dongzan Yusong is, and most of the history books are called 'Lu Dongzan').

Gar Qinling hurriedly restrained his expression and fell down, "See you, Zanpu, see you... Father."

Dongzan Yusong looked at his son with a calm expression like the Buddha on his head, and he didn't say anything. Zanpu Abandoned Zong got up, turned around and walked to the garqinling. He raised his hand and said, "Qinling is free of courtesy. Get up quickly."

"Xie Zanpu..." The garqinling got up, and there was an unprecedented uneasier in his heart.

Abandoned Zong's face was full of a kind smile and said, "I pray for your peace in front of the Buddha. As long as I come back, I will feel at ease.

Gar Qinling glanced at his father, and his father's expression did not show any hint. For a moment, I didn't know what to say, so I had to nod.

"Qinling, do you know why I asked you to come to the Buddha Hall and meet you here?" Abandoned Zong suddenly asked.

"I don't know..." The garqinling shook his head.

"Only in front of the Buddha can we maintain a sincere and calm heart, not talk nonsense, not impulsive, dare not deceive the Buddha, and will not deceive ourselves." Abandoned Zong's praise is still smiling, and his voice is also very soft. He said, "Our dynasty has reached the brink of deciding the rise and fall. At this time, in addition to praying for the blessing of God and Buddha, we have to make our own choices and grasp.

Gar Qinling frowned slightly and carefully understood the words and words of Zamp, and he couldn't get the essentials for a while.

At this time, Dongzan Yusong, who had not spoken for a long time, said, "Zanpu, let the old minister say it! - In front of the Buddha, let's not beat around the bush! Qinling, let's put aside the victory or defeat of the war. You made a fatal mistake on this expedition! This has led our whole country to face extinction!"

"What's wrong?" The Chalchin Mausoleum asked calmly.

Although he is his biological father, he is different from the hard-line main war faction of garqinling. Dongzan Yusong has always advocated good-up with Tang Yan. Therefore, the father and son actually have different political opinions, and their faces and hearts are not at peace.

"You shouldn't attack Taozhou!" Dongzan Yusong's face was cold. He stretched out his hand and pointed to the door of the Chalqinling and said, "Whether it is Dafeichuan, Huanyue Valley or Yumenguan, the victory or defeat of the war has been decided, and nothing you do is irreparable. In that case, the most important thing you should do is to preserve your strength and withdraw troops back to defense. But you pretended to be smart, surprised Taozhou, and disturbed the western border of the Central Plains! Although your military plan was completely successful, and the Tang Dynasty retreated completely without any choice, but the consequences of your move are not as you think!"

"What can be the consequences?" Garqinling's face turned gloomy and he said coldly, "No matter how angry the lamb is, it is impossible to trample on the territory of the wolves!" The purpose of my surprise attack on Taozhou was not to report the defeat. It was to delay the offensive of the Tang Dynasty and harm Qin Mubai to alienate their emperors and ministers. I know the Han people who ruled the country by Confucianism and the emperors of the Central Plains. The border area suffered such a great loss that Qin Mubai and others committed serious dereliction of duty. This is called killing people with a knife! Even if we can't kill Qin Mubai and make them in a mess, we can get a precious respite!"

"You're wrong!" Dongzan Yusong shouted angrily, "You just underestimate the Han people, Li Shimin, and an opponent who has been defeated many times!"

"Father said, Hou Junji?" Chaling laughed a little disdainfully.

"That's him." Dongzan Yusong's face was so serious that he was angry that he said word by word, "Do you know where he hit now?"

"Where?" There was also a twist in the heart of the Chalqin Mausoleum. When withdrawing from the army, he knew that Hou Junji had killed Qingluoyuan and led the army to the plateau, so he began to run crazily back to help Luo. However, there was no detection of any movement about Hou Junji along the way.

"He pushed all the way along the Kunlun Mountains, destroying the tribes to kill and set fire, and left chickens and dogs wherever he went! Now, he is about to hit Sun Bo!" Dongzan Yusong shouted, "Sun Bo!! Do you know where it is?"

The garqinling couldn't help but widen its eyes. It was obviously incredible! - Sun Bo, the largest tribal gathering place in front of the royal city, the last military barrier, and also the fief nest of the gar family!

"Zanpu! Father! I will immediately lead the army to destroy Hou Junji!" Garqinling shouted in a low voice, "How dare you be so presumptuous? Look at me killing him!"

"No need!" Dongzan Yusong shouted, "Your division expedition has just returned, and the division veterans are tired and tired. How can you fight in such a situation? - Just stay in Luo and guard the king's city!"

Gar Qinling was shocked and looked at Zanpu in surprise.

There was still such a gentle smile on his face and said softly, "It's reasonable to say. Qinling, you can stay in Luo and help me guard the royal city.

"Okay, I see..." garqinling closed his eyes and took a long breath and nodded slowly. Reaching out his hand into his arms, he took out the one that could mobilize all the troops of Tubo and symbolized the supreme military authority, and presented it in front of Zanpu with both hands.

Abandoned Zong Nongzan did not reach out to pick it up. Instead, Dongzan Yusong took it over and said, "I will personally lead the troops to Sun Bo to resist Hou Junji! - Qinling, you can stay in Luoce City to recuperate!"

"Yes..." Garqinling gritted his teeth and nodded silently. Suddenly, he woke up and said, "Father, you can't go!"

"Why?"

Gerqinling's eyebrows were deeply locked, "Then Hou Junji obviously risked his life to break the fish dead net!" His combat ability is not weak, but now he is desperate. I'm worried..."

"Presumptuous! You mean I'm not his opponent?" Dongzan Yusong was a little annoyed, "Don't forget, who held your ass and put you on horseback!" Who took you to fight for the first time! Who will explain "Sun Tzu's Art of War" to you!"

"It's my father..." The Chalqinling lowered his eyelids and sighed softly.

"It's good to know! I'm not old yet!" Dongzan Yusong snorted, put the military charm in his arms, looked at the Kar Qinling with a rather unhappy face, and said, "There is one more thing, I think I should tell you!"

"What's the matter?"

"The two younger brothers you sent to attack Yumenguan and Yangguan are all over!" Dongzan Yusong said, "They had already broken through the Yang Pass. When they were about to attack the Yumen Pass, Qin Mubai personally led troops to help and kill them. In addition, Xue Rengui led 100,000 Hui, Turks and Gaochang's allied forces to kill together! Zan Po, was beheaded by Xue Rengui in the battle; more than leading the captured Kunlun iron horse, they surrendered to Qin Mubai together!"

"What? Surrender?" The garqin Mausoleum was really shocked!

He expected that Zan Po and Siduo might eventually be defeated by this lonely army, and even the whole army would kill the two brothers in the battlefield, but he never thought that the Kunlun iron horse, who came out with his mother's own brother and his own hands, would surrender!

"Yes! Surrender!" Dongzan Yusong shouted, "Your military plan has failed completely! Not only Gaochang Turkic allies have betrayed us, but also our brothers and sons have betrayed us! Your opponent Qin Mubai has been underestimated by you! - Qinling, you still don't wake up like this! Your strategy of governing the country is wrong. Now we have betrayed our relatives! To tell you the truth, it's not that Zamp wants to take away your military power, but that I forced Zamp to do so! At this time, we don't make some changes, so we have to--"

Dongzan Yusong's mood was already very excited, and the last two words were almost roaring - "The subjugation of the country!!"

After listening to my father's roar, the Garqin Mausoleum was calm and said lightly, "I admit my defeat in the military, but I don't think my governance is slightly wrong, and I disdain to believe that someone can destroy my Tubo Dynasty!"

"Enough! I don't want to listen to you again!" Dongzan Yusong shouted angrily, "Zanpu is kind-hearted and can't bear to deal with you with the national law and military law. You have to be content! - You have to wake up to your mistakes and take care of yourself!"

Garqinling swallowed a hard breath and calmly said, "Yes..."

Dongzan Yusong turned around and gave a salute to the abandoned sect and said, "Please forgive the old minister's gaffe. Although in front of the Buddha, the old minister could not hide the grief and anxiety in his heart. Lao Chen will choose soldiers and horses to go to Sun Bo to resist Hou Junji!"

"It's a great deal." Qizong nodded with a smile, "First of all, we must fight against the enemy in the wild so that our people will not be poisoned by Hou Junji again, and then we must win and defeat it. Only by winning with victory can we reach a peace alliance with the Tang Dynasty. I think Li Shimin should also know that after all, war is not good for us. It's not easy to kill us completely on the plateau.

"Yes, the old minister knows his mission... The old minister is gone!"

Dongzan Yusong has left.

Qi Zong Nong Zan walked to Gar Qinling, patted him on the shoulder in front of him, and said, "Qinling, please forgive me!"

"It's my brother's incompetence. How can I blame Zanpu?" The Chalqin Mausoleum said lightly.

"In my heart, you are still my brother-and-law, and you have never changed." Qizong said, "But since we bear the fate of a dynasty and the life and death of tens of millions of people, we have to face the reality. Occasionally, it is also appropriate to sacrifice something that belongs to yourself.

Gar Qinling nodded gently and said lightly, "As long as it turns out that Zanpu and his father are right, I have nothing to say. I would rather disappear from now and stop leading the army; if necessary, please dedicate me to the Tang Dynasty for peace, I - heart, willing, affection, wish!!"
