The black clouds are squeezing the city and are about to destroy it!

Outside Jincheng City, the Tubo army gathered little by little, and the camps of 60,000 troops stretched for ten miles, with flags standing in front of them, like a long dragon surrounding the three gates of Jincheng North and South East.

They used the tactic of surrounding three que 1, and they had the momentum of swallowing Jincheng with one mouthful.

But day by day, the Tubo army was silent, and the 60,000 troops seemed to be looking at each other affectionately with Jincheng.

Pei Min looked at the Tubo military camp that could not be seen at first sight and began to reduce the number of soldiers patrolling.

He saw Tubo’s intention. Tubo was preparing siege equipment and planned to eat Jincheng in one go. If they didn’t fight, they would definitely stop day and night once they attacked.

Tubo had enough soldiers to take a rest and rotate, but they were not treated so well. Pei Min only had 6,000 soldiers, and the four gates in the east, south, west and north must be arranged to guard. If the 500 soldiers in the four gates were subtracted, he only had 4,000 soldiers who could really use it. It would be fine if Tubo only attacked one gate, but if he attacked three gates at the same time, the troops in his hands would be even more difficult. At that time, it would be difficult for the soldiers to close their eyes.

Now we can only give the soldiers as much rest time as possible while the attack is not yet available to allow them to maintain their peak state to welcome the upcoming fierce battle.

"Pei Deputy Envoy!" Lu Yu held two wooden boxes in his hand and walked up. Pei Min is now the governor of Lanzhou and the deputy envoy of Longyou Defense. When the war broke out, the deputy envoy of Longyou Defense had the right to live and kill, and his power was far superior to the governor, so he was called the deputy envoy.

"Indian Zhu Xiang! The merchant Yili Dou gave it, it's a good thing! I lit one and I slept peacefully at night. These days, the Tubo army was in a hurry, and I could use it to suppress my shock." He shook the wooden box in his hand and handed it to Pei Min.

If you have a advantage, you will not take advantage of it. Pei Min took over and said, "Sandalwood, Long Danxiang has smelled it, but I don't know how this indian fragrance is?" This era of wealthy families have the habit of a little fragrance. They can concentrate and calm their energy and soothe their body and mind, which is of great benefit to the body.

Pei Min also often used it in Chang'an, not to relieve emotions, but to avoid insects. The harm of mosquitoes in ancient times was far superior to that of modern times, and he simply used sandalwood as mosquito coils. As for the fragrance of dragons, he smelled it in the palace and Princess Taiping's imperial carriage.

Lu Yu said: "It's completely different from Long Danxiang, but it has a stronger smell than Sandalwood and has a special smell. However, the price is much cheaper than Long Danxiang, which is a little more expensive than Sandalwood. But the effect is much better. The price is fair and it is a hot item in Chang'an. Look, there are more than ten cars of Tianzhuxiang. When I returned the supplies, Yilidou forced me to a few boxes."

Pei Min smiled and said, "Okay, try it tonight, will it work? I've been selling incense all the way around and you've returned it!"

Lu Yu said: "It should be possible. These merchants are so naughty. When did they go back and forth along the Silk Road, they would make a fortune without making a fortune? I really don't believe they will do business that loses money." He didn't know the details, but he saw many merchants traveling to the Silk Road and knew very well about their business methods.

Pei Min didn't think much about it either.

************

A golden eagle fell in a courtyard full of grass, and a pair of rough big hands carefully caught it, and gently untied a silk roll from the golden eagle's feet.

The owner of the big hand had a beard and had a bronze bell in his eyes. He was a big man with thick limbs. He gently spread the silk roll and walked into the inner courtyard with a solemn expression.

Yilidou looked at the visitor with a tragic look on his face, regretting: He was a businessman on the verge of bankruptcy, owing a lot of debts and having the idea of ​​suicide. Before committing suicide, he had to give advice from experts and sold all the houses and shops, and embarked on the legendary Silk Road with a determined heart.

The Silk Road was very dangerous to the world and was a paradise for adventurers. In fact, it was not as exaggerated as the legend. The Silk Road was one of the important sources of the Tang Dynasty's economy. The Tang Dynasty attached great importance to public security on the Silk Road. The Tang army guarding the Western Regions had soldiers guarding each fortress. Although it could not avoid the existence of horse thieves and bandits, it curbed their exhibition.

Yilidou was very lucky. He went to the legendary Chang'an of the Celestial Empire on the first time he took the Silk Road. With the specialties of Tianzhu, he exchanged a large amount of silk and porcelain. With this one round trip alone, he paid back all his debts and redeemed his store deed.

After several years of exhibitions, he was one of the few rich merchants in India. As he was old, he did not plan to take the Silk Road again. But a few months ago, King Shengri of Tianzhu came to him, to be precise, the envoy of Tubo, who asked King Shengri to find him, hoping to use his power to seize Jincheng.

Tianzhu has been in division and chaos, and no prince has great power. As the overlord of the southwest, Tianzhu has always survived with Tubo's breath. Yilidou dared not refuse to follow, and was even more moved by the benefits promised by the Tubo envoys and agreed to take the last trip. The 100 guards in Yilidou's hands were mercenaries on the surface, but in fact they were talented people recruited by Tubo over the years, specially prepared for the capture of Jincheng.

When they came, they had already made an agreement that the Tubo side deliberately used the tactic of surrounding three quarts and one.

The three sieges and one of them came from "The Art of War and Military Competition of Sun Tzu", which is one of the eight principles of using military forces to fight. "The Art of War" was passed down to the Tang Dynasty, and everyone knew it. They were sure that the generals of Jincheng must know the reason and relaxed their defenses on that siege. And they were able to take advantage of this little point to capture the city gate. As long as the city gate was lost, why should Jincheng block the Tubo army? At that time, all the wealth of Jincheng belonged to Tubo.

It was also because of this plan that Pei Min borrowed someone from Yilidou at that time, but Yilidou dared to borrow someone.

However, the price of not lending is that the caravan was detained. Yilidou didn't care about the dozens of spices in the Tang Dynasty this time. However, Pei Min and Lu Yu had achieved this point. If he didn't let go of borrowing, it would be unreasonable. Forced support would only arouse suspicion and cause unnecessary trouble. Yilidou could only grit his teeth and compromise with Pei Min with regret on his face, and gave the "mercenary" to Pei Min to act as a thug.

This complete plan was completely disrupted. Yilidou was just a businessman. He had no idea about military affairs. He was helpless and had a heart full of heart. Thinking of his wife and children, he really regretted it.
