Chapter 688 Poor Tubo

There are two poles in the world, one is the Antarctic, the other is the Arctic, and the other is the third pole, which is Mount Everest under the territory controlled by Tubo. Although the Tubo barbarians live near the third pole of the world, they are just a group of barbarians who are better at living in the wild. Now, the international situation is gradually moving closer to the favorable side of the Tang Dynasty.

"The Qiang tribes west of Songzhou, Maozhou, Yizhou, Yazhou, Huichuan, and Yaozhou have contacted the troops of our Tang Dynasty and have fought several battles with the troops of the eastern Tubo. Although no one has any favors, the offensive momentum of Tubo has been firmly blocked by our Tang Dynasty and the Qiang people from all over the country, and they are firmly blocked by our Tang Dynasty. The front line of the Jinchuan River is not enough to advance. Moreover, the elite troops sent by our Tang Dynasty this time are all southern soldiers, and the Wuben Army is the commander, and the losses are not great. On the contrary, the largest Lieba tribe in the east of Tubo, Lun Yuxier, was ambushed by our army on the front line of the Jinchuan River. Lun Yuxier was bombarded and killed by 5,000 people, and more than 2,000 were reduced, and the rest are all scattered."

On the large sand table of the General Staff, Uncle Li Jing was holding a baton and pointing on the sand table. The sand table was covered with small flags representing the Tang Dynasty, Tubo and Qiang people.

"Well, Li Ji's beloved indeed has lived up to my high expectations. Haha, good job, this Yu Xie is not an ordinary person. When the old boy Lu Dongzan came to Chang'an for a mission, he mentioned this person, saying that he was a famous general in Tubo. Now, a shell flew into the sky, hahaha..." Uncle Li was so happy that he even exposed his little tongue in his throat.

Everyone was also happy. Well, at least Tubo's eastern strategy was temporarily restrained and his soldiers were also damaged. After more than ten consecutive battles, Tubo lost three Dongdai, namely, thousands of households, and even lost a military leader in the eastern region known as a famous general. The loss rate of soldiers was nearly 10,000. On our side, the Qiang people suffered several thousand losses, but the elites in the Tang Dynasty were not much damaged.

"Your Majesty, there are these. Now Yang Tong and the Dongnu Kingdom have been supported by our Tang Dynasty and have stabilized their own territory. At least for one to two years, Tubo dares not take it lightly. If he dares to make big moves, in the end, he will definitely be a situation of losing both sides." Li Zongdao also happily said with his long beard.

On the other side, Zhang Liang also slammed his mouth and said, "This time, we have left a magic trick on the chessboard. What can the Tubo barbarians do? Now he can't do anything. He wants to use the conquest of the southeast to increase the population and strength. Unfortunately, they have a short chess game and have a plan for His Majesty first. Now, they have to consider wherever they fight, so they will be careful before they can take care of their heads and their butts are exposed again."

The gangsters were talking about gangsters. The old gangsters laughed maliciously. God knows whether these gangsters want to blow up the chrysanthemums of Tubo barbarians. Well, I am also very evil.

Everyone was talking and laughing. But before the meeting, a contact between the Jujuan Academy and the Staff Office rushed in quickly. It was my subordinate, so he naturally delivered the information in his hand to my hands. When he saw it, I was so happy. You are the one who is the first to do it. Good things are really going to be together.

"Your Majesty! Great joy, great joy." I quickly stepped forward and called out excitedly: "Your Majesty, please look here. It seems that there is good news for my Tang Dynasty's Jiannan Road Western Front. Here, the land of Nanzhao was also shocked. Now Nanzhao is much quieter."

The information in my hand had been snatched by Su Dingfang from beside me and looked at it in detail, "Oh, what do you mean?" Uncle Li asked with interest. Since the appearance of the sand table, this three-dimensional and more intuitive model has been far more popular with the Tang Military Group than the map.

"Half a month ago, the heads of the tribes of Nanzhao and Yongchang, Yaozhou and Kunzhou in the area of ​​Jiannan Road met in the Dianchi Alliance on the edge of Kunzhou to integrate the hearts of the tribes. Secondly, they also took the opportunity to warn the tribes not to think about the Tubo attacking me in Nanqiang. But who would have thought that the two tribes of Dabo Nong, located on the banks of Erhai Lake, were disrespectful to our envoys of the Tang Dynasty. Xiaobo Nong, the leader of Xiaobo Nong, was even more insulting to our envoys of the Tang Dynasty, and even cut their hair and shave their eyebrows. I think you already know the news." I said a little heavy.

"Well, I know this! The Southern Barbarians are really hateful. If it weren't for the stability that the south needed, and the military was being used in Jiannan Road, I would have issued an order to let Li Ji's beauties kill the hateful barbarian alive!" Uncle Li immediately bulged his eyes. In the eyes of the ancients, his hair, beard and body were taken care of by his parents, which was the most important thing. This was clearly a kind of insult to the human body. Although the generals around him had already heard this military intelligence, they still looked angry when they heard people's words.

"Your Majesty, our military academy's Wu Ben has really made great contributions." Su Dingfang finished looking at the information and couldn't help but pat his thigh and shout loudly. Uncle Li couldn't hold it in his hands now, so he took the information two steps forward and took a look with relish.

The old generals next to me were anxious and seemed to be like something, but the old man Li Jing stabbed me. "You are not happy to tell me what's going on?"

"Oh, okay, my nephew will talk about it now, hehe." I pursed my lips and pointed at the Erhai Lake with the baton: "After learning this news, my two teams of the Wu Ben Army of the Tang Dynasty, made a starry night journey, and arrived at Erhai Lake three days later. Yu Ye captured Xiaobo's leader, Jiasai, from the tribe."

"What did you say? I captured it alive?" Uncle Cheng was so happy that he kept rubbing his hands: "Wu Benjun, damn it, good, what a Wu Ben army, hahaha, tell me, how could they pull people out of such a tribe?"

The old guy was jumping up and down in front of me, and I quickly lit the sand table and said, "Two teams, one team, to destroy the village west of Xiaobo's village, attracted Xiaobo's attention. But they never expected that another ten teams, with their steel crossbows and various special weapons, tied up the armor that was still sleeping on the bed and was escorted to the scene of the alliance. This time, not only gave me a face to the Tang Dynasty and won glory for me, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, but also made all the Nanzhao barbarians shudders. Lord Tang's future behavior would be smoother.

Moreover, the heads of the Nanzhao barbarians had to agree not to obstruct our Tang Dynasty from building a cement straight road south of Jiannan Road, connecting the important places and city blocks between the states and prefectures. As a result, through trade and transportation, we can firmly grasp this place in our hands. In the future, the strategy of the division and disintegration of our Tang Dynasty can be even more possible."

———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Tubo was anxious, but they never expected that their strategy against Yangtong was suppressed by the Tang Dynasty at the beginning. Dongnu Kingdom and Tuyuhun have now been infiltrated by the Tang Dynasty. The Heyuan, the West Sea and the Jiaohe in the hinterland of Tuyuhun were suppressed by the Tang Dynasty, suppressing the Qiang people in Tuyuhun so hard that they could not move. In the Dorma under the cypress sea, which is the source of the Yellow River, between Jishi Mountain and Zishan, the Tang Dynasty was building a completely brick-and-stone military fortress-type town in the name of a trade market.

Although the city barrier is much smaller than Chang'an, it is actually not small, and at least it can be easily lived by thousands of households. Moreover, there are many vendors from the Tang Dynasty and ethnic groups here, and hundreds of vendors flow all year round, and there are even more garrisons finalized by Uncle Li and others.

Although this small city gate, named Huguan by Uncle Li, is the Tang army in its name, in fact, Uncle Li, an old gangster, has played a trick. The number of Tang troops in this city far exceeds that of one mansion. Moreover, it is equipped with a large number of city defense weapons. Even the artillery of only the sixteen guards of the Tang Dynasty and the military academy troops is equipped with five, including mortars, grenades and other long-range strikes and short-range defensive weapons. Everyone is equipped with steel crossbows. After it is fully built, the height of the city gate is three meters, and it is completely made of brick and stone concrete structure. This is simply a permanent military fortress, like a nail, firmly nailed to the junction of Tuyuhun, Dongwoguo and Tubo.

It can be said that as long as there is sufficient ammunition, equipment and food, there will be no problem for the 2,500 elite Tang army soldiers inside for three or five months. What's more, there is also an intelligence department of the Tang Dynasty Jinzou Academy stationed here, which can deliver information directly to Chang'an, the highest institution of the Tang Dynasty government at any time.

"But what will Tubo react?" I was shocked by this news. Uncle Li narrowed his eyes proudly: "Tubo, what else can Tubo do now? I want him to move now, but he dare not. Although Songtsen Gampo has changed his strategy and tried his best to make friends with Yangtong. He also sells the East Girl Country next to him. At least Tuyuhun dares to move? Son-in-law, don't forget that the capital of Tuyuhun is only more than a hundred miles away from our current Xihai Prefecture. Now Tuyuhun is the snail in the hands of my Tang Dynasty. It is too late to kowtow and accept surrender. How can you have the time to go and go with Tubo?"
