Chapter 573 The court to make
"Fire!"
The Tang army was obviously already prepared for the dying counterattack of the Tubo army, but listening to Xiao Sanlang's roar, the officers and soldiers of the first brigade who were waiting for the array pulled the trigger one after another and shot bursts of bullets at the rushing Tubo cavalry like splashing water. The head of the head, Kar Qinling received the most care, and dozens of shots came. The bullet shot it into a sieve, and he didn't even have time to say a thing, so he fell off the horse.
"Ceasefire!"
The inner gate was not big. Although the thousands of brave people who rushed out immediately after him rushed, no one could get close to the Tang army for half a step. Anyone who dared to rush out of the gate died tragically under the random shooting of guns. However, in a moment, the whole inner gate was almost completely blocked by the corpses of people and horses, and there was no one again. He dared to rush out from the inside, and the smoke was filled with gunpow. After Xiao Sanlang shouted, the sound of gunfire gradually stopped, but when he saw that the bodies of people and horses were piled up at the gate, and the blood flowed into a river, it was terrible.
Dead silence, the dead silence of a faction, in the face of such a tragic scene, whether it is the Tubo officers and soldiers who are hiding on the inner wall and peeping, or the Tang army listed after the officers and soldiers of the first brigade, are so shocked by such cruel pictures that they can't speak. Tens of thousands of troops are speechless, and once again scared by the power of the musket, only Li Xian himself is an exception, just because he knows very well that although the musket is powerful, it has many limitations. The reason why he can achieve such a remarkable record is only due to the location. If it were on the open ground, there would be no such amazing results. Of course, Li Xian himself knew about these things. It is impossible to say it at this time, so let all kinds of people wait there in a tze.
"Your Highness, look, the Tubo thief has hung the white flag!"
After a burst of unbearable silence, a Tubo soldier suddenly appeared on the top of the city, dancing a white flag, and his sharp-eyed soldier shouted in surprise.
"Into the city!"
Since the enemy surrendered, Li Xian was happy to save a fight and didn't talk much nonsense. He just waved his hand and had no choice but to give orders. Tang officers and soldiers who had been waiting for a long time immediately rushed forward, removed the body from the way, shouted and killed into the gate hole. However, Li Xian did not attack with the army, but slowly. The horse came to the body of the specially selected gar Qinling. After staring silently for a long time, he resolutely twisted the horse's head and went out of the city without looking back...
Fuyu City was broken, and a generation of famous generals, Kar Qinling, had fallen. At this point, there was no established Tubo army in the whole territory of Tuyuhun. However, Li Xian did not take advantage of the situation to enter the Tubo country, nor did he place the army in Fuyan City, but led his troops to slowly retreat to the shore of Qinghai Lake, leaving only 3,000 troops in Wuhai City. In order to defend the palace, it is not that Li Xian does not want to attack urgently, but that he has concerns that under the continuous battles, the fatigue of the division veterans is only one aspect, and the excessive consumption of logistics is also one of the reasons, but these are not the main factors. The real reason is that Li Xian has not figured out whether he should destroy Tubo.
Reason? It's very simple, just an idiom - the bird hides its bow! Li Xian has been extremely happy in Hexi over the years. He has made a lot of changes in military and government affairs. These measures are indeed suspected of deviantism. The reason why they are not condemned by the court is nothing more than two points. One is that Li Xian's control over Hexi is enough. No one dares to pick, but another reason is to compete with the needs of Tubo. Whenever Li Xian wants to change, he writes such an article in the manuscript. For the sake of the stability of He'an, Gao Zong will not have much opinion, and it is not easy for the Empress Wu and the prince to make a big deal about the matter of Hexi, but once Tubo is destroyed. The situation is different. Whether it is the prince or the Empress Wu, they will not tolerate Li Xian's self-respect in Hexi. Gao Zong is afraid that he will inevitably have such calculations. It is difficult for Li Xian to continue to stay in Hexi, and this is obviously not the result that Li Xian wants. At least Li Xian does not want to leave the river at present. This is a hard-won base in hand.
The solution is not that there is no solution. First, it is to let the Tubo Kingdom continue to exist, or it is a very threatening existence. In this way, Li Xian's actions in Hexi and Tuyuhun can be explained. The problem is that this war has completely defeated more than half of the military strength of the Tubo Kingdom. No more, at present, Tubo is just a ripe peach. You can get it as soon as you pick it. If you don't enter the army, it will be difficult to hide it in the end, and may even cause unnecessary criticism among a group of ministers. The political loss is a little big. Therefore, this can only be used as a last resort. As for the second method, it is to leave Hexi and directly enter the East Palace. However, this method is obviously much more difficult than the first one, and there are many uncontrollable factors. Li Xian himself is not very optimistic about this. In case it is self-defeating, the consequences are unimaginable!
I have a headache. I really have a headache. In the face of ripe fruits, I dare not pick them easily. This kind of annoying situation really gives Li Xian a headache. In addition, there are so many trivialities in the army and politics after defeating Tuyuhun. Li Xian has not been able to sleep peacefully for more than ten days. He has always hesitated and wandering in his heart. Well, it's another night that I haven't slept. Even if Li Xian has been in good health since he was a child, he can't stand it. He dragged his feet out of the big account. Regardless of whether he is image or not, he stretched out fiercely at the door of the tent.
"Report, Your Highness, the imperial envoy has arrived outside the camp, please make it clear to your highness!"
Before Li Xian's lazy waist was fully stretched, he saw a team rushing over, bowed down, and hurriedly reported.
"Hmm?"
As soon as he heard the arrival of the imperial envoy, Li Xian couldn't help but be stunned - he beat Tu Yuhun. Naturally, the good news was handed over to the court in the morning. Counting the time, this was only enough to go back and forth. Obviously, the imperial envoy was a little strange. At this delicate moment, Li Xian couldn't help but think with one heart and frowning. After thinking about it, I decided to go and have a look first. Then he said a soft voice and strode to the camp gate.
"The maidservant can see Your Highness!"
As soon as Li Xian arrived at the camp gate, he saw Zhang Jianzhi accompanying three young eunuchs talking there. There was a trace of suspicion in his eyes, but there was not much to say. He just strode over and a young eunuch dressed in deputy master's clothes who was whispering with Zhang Jianzhi saw Li Xian's arrival. He rushed forward and saluted respectfully.
"The father-in-law is very polite."
Li Xian saw that this eunuch surnamed Zhang was very pregnant. He should have been the deputy master who had just been mentioned. Without knowing his roots, he did not say much greetings. He just raised his hand modestly and signaled him to be flat.
"Your Highness has won a great victory over Tibet this time. It is famous all over the world and celebrates all over the world. Your Majesty is very happy about it. The special slave maidservant came to express his congratulations, and asked Your Highness to take the order first."
Although Zhang Kan had never seen Li Xian, he had heard a lot about Li Xian's power in the past. He dared not put on a very bad air in front of Li Xian, bowed his body, and asked for instructions with a smile on his face.
"Eunuch Zhang, please wait a moment. Xiao Wang will let people prepare incense cases and other things, and let Xiao Wang change his clothes and bathe to listen to the Hadith."
Since the imperial edict has arrived, it is naturally impossible not to accept it. However, Li Xian has more heart, which secretly winced at Zhang Jianzhi, but he accepted it with great harmony.
"Your Highness, please take care of yourself. I'll wait here."
Naturally, it can't be ignored to receive the order. Although it is in front of the army, it doesn't need to be so cumbersome. It can be done with power. However, since Li Xian wants to make a grand event, Zhang Kan naturally dares not say a word, and can only answer with a smile on his face.
"You're in a good job."
Li Xian didn't talk any more nonsense. As soon as he turned around, he strode into the camp and went straight back to the big account of the Chinese army. After a while, he saw Zhang Jian's money in.
"See Your Highness."
Zhang Jianzhi has always been meticulous. When he saw that Li Xian had sat in front of the copywriter, he immediately took a few steps, rushed forward, and made a big salute respectfully.
"Don't be polite. Why did you come here? Is there something wrong with this edict?"
Li Xian did not take Zhang Jianzhi on this expedition, but entrusted all the affairs of Hexi government affairs to him. Even if the war was won, the government affairs of Tuyuhun did not bother Zhang Jianzhi, but made Zhuang Mingyi, the assassin of Shanzhou, in order to ensure the stability of the rear. At this time, he saw that Zhang Jianzhi actually left Hexi affairs to accompany Qin in person. How can Li Xian not be suspicious when he comes here?
"Well, it's strange. In terms of Your Highness, it may be a great thing!"
Zhang Jianzhi smiled and sold it in an extremely rare way.
"Oh? How do you say this?"
After getting along with Zhang Jianzhi for many years, Li Xian knew Zhang Jianzhi's temperament. If it hadn't been for the great joy, he would never have had such a relaxed look. The curiosity in his heart immediately rose, so he looked at Zhang Jian's eyes suspiciously and asked with a faint smile.
"Your Highness Qinggong is promising, isn't it a happy event?"
Zhang Jianzhiba blinked his eyes, seemed to make fun of him, and asked again as if he were serious.
"Green Palace? What happened to the prince? No way? How can it be so fast? Isn't that possible?"
Li Xian is still thinking about how to deal with it once he leaves Hexi these days. Naturally, winning the position of the East Palace is also one of Li Xian's considerations. However, his certainty is really not high, and Li Xian does not dare to try easily. At this time, as soon as he heard Zhang Jianzhi's words, Li Xian's heart suddenly jumped a few times and suddenly rose up. His face widened in disbelief, and a series of questions burst out suspiciously.
"Your Highness, please sit down."
Zhang Jianzhi did not answer Li Xian's question immediately, but strode to a few children, sat cross-legged on the opposite side of Li Xian, waved his hand with a smile, and motioned Li Xian to sit down.
"Huh..."
Li Xian grew out of breath and suppressed all the anxiety in his heart. He slowly sat back to his original position, but did not ask again, but looked at Zhang Jianzhi with his eyes, waiting for him to give a precise explanation...
