Datang's free and easy concubine

Chapter 1419 Prospect
Songtsan Gampo asked excitedly: "Zhaji Gun, are you sure that Princess Changle's son-in-law Rong Guogong Su Cheng led the army?"

Zha Jigun nodded repeatedly and said: "Zanpu, I am very sure that it is Rong Guo Gong Su Cheng who led the army! It is Rong Guo Gong Su Cheng who brewed the best wine in the world and made guns and cannons. It is definitely not someone else with the same name. People with the same surname."

Now Songtsan Gampo was finally sure that it was really Su Cheng who led the army, not someone with the same name and surname. He didn't expect Li Shimin to be willing to let Su Cheng lead the army.

It's not that Datang doesn't have other famous generals, so why let Su Cheng go out?Shouldn't Su Cheng be confessed properly?

However, this should also be thanks to Li Shimin. If Su Cheng stayed in Chang'an all the time, how could he have the opportunity to covet Su Cheng?
Thinking of this, Songtsan Gampo was overjoyed.

Just now he was still thinking about how to defeat Tang Jun, how to teach Tang Jun a harsh lesson, so that Datang would not dare to send troops again, but now he suddenly felt that the outcome of this battle was actually not important.

If Su Cheng can be captured alive, it doesn't matter if he loses this battle!

After the defeat in this battle, they can continue to send troops to capture Tuyuhun, and if they can capture Su Cheng alive, then everything is worth it.

Since Zhang Liang, the coach of the Tang army, could be beheaded in the last battle, it is not impossible to capture Su Cheng alive.

Songtsan Gampo was pacing excitedly with his hands behind his back. Now his strategic goal has changed, from defeating Tang Jun to capturing Su Cheng alive.

But if you want to capture Su Cheng alive, you must find out where Su Cheng is!
Songtsan Gampo pondered: "It is impossible for the four famous generals of the Tang Dynasty to be in one army at a time. They must be divided into separate troops to lead the army. Then which army will Su Cheng be in? Where is the marching route? It must be The spies lurking in Longyou must investigate clearly!"

After hearing this, Zaji Gun hurriedly said: "Zanpu, the minister has already detected it!"

Songtsan Gampo couldn't help being overjoyed when he heard this: "You have already detected it? Zaji Gun, you have made great achievements in this mission!"

Zaji Gun was very excited when he heard this. He worked hard day and night and came back quickly just for this moment!

Zhaji Gun hurriedly said: "Although the firearms of Shenji Camp are powerful, the road to Tuyuhun is difficult, and the artillery is not easy to transport, so the Emperor of Tang Dynasty decided to let Su Cheng lead Shenji Camp to store grain and guard the food and grass."

Songtsan Gampo couldn't help being slightly startled when he heard this, and then murmured: "Although guarding food and grass is overkill for the Shenji Camp, the artillery is too heavy and difficult to transport."

"So, Zaji Gun, the news you inquired about is very likely to be true!"

Zhaji Gun hurriedly said: "Zanpu, the news I inquired about is absolutely true. Princess Changle is pregnant. Originally, the palace didn't want Su Cheng to lead the army. It's just that people in Longyou are already panicked, so the emperor let him go. Su Cheng led Shenji Battalion to Longyou to calm people's hearts."

Songtsan Gampo couldn't help but nodded slightly when he heard this, and said: "It's true, the Tang Dynasty conquered Goguryeo, and the names of Su Cheng and Shenjiying have become famous all over the world, they can be called legends, and they can really calm people's hearts."

Zaji Gun asked respectfully: "Does Zanpu want to capture Su Cheng alive? It's just that Su Cheng hides behind to guard the food and grass. It may not be easy to capture Su Cheng alive."

Songtsan Gampo nodded and said: "Su Cheng is hiding behind to guard the food and grass. It is really not easy to capture him alive, but there are two sides to everything. It is better for Su Cheng to hide there than to find Su Cheng everywhere. Find out where Datang stored grain, and Su Cheng is already in my hands, and it's hard to fly."

Zhaji Gun hurriedly said: "Zanpu is wise, although Su Cheng is smart but young, I am afraid he would never have dreamed that Zanpu wanted to capture him alive. When the army arrives, he will have no choice but to capture him and use it for Zanpu!"

Hearing Zaji Gun's words, Songtsan Gampo couldn't help feeling overwhelmed, as if he had already seen the scene of Su Cheng being captured.

He seemed to see glass everywhere, jars of spirits, mighty cannons, a golden road...

Taking a deep breath, Songtsan Gampo finally calmed down a little. Now there is another question before him, that is, where is Su Cheng guarding the food and grass.

Songtsan Gampo asked, "Zhaji Gun, do you know where Su Cheng is guarding the food and grass?"

Zhaji Gun felt a bit puzzled after hearing this: "Zanpu, this minister didn't find out. The minister is an envoy, and those people in Tang Dynasty are guarding against him."

Songtsan Gampo couldn't help but nodded when he heard it, and what Zaji Gun said was true. If Zaji Gun really found out where Su Cheng was guarding the grain and grass, then he would be suspicious.

This should be a military secret of the Tang Dynasty, even the general courtiers of the Tang Dynasty don't know it, so how could Zha Jigun find out?

Songtsan Gampo nodded slightly, and said with a smile, "It's normal if you can't find out. This is Datang's military strategy, and it's a military secret. How can it be easily leaked? As the saying goes, the soldiers and horses go first before the food and grass are mobilized. To mobilize a large amount of grain and grass to Longyou, and the artillery of Shenji Battalion is so easy to identify, so the spies in Longyou will definitely be able to find out where Su Cheng guards the grain and grass!"

Zaji Gun couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Zanpu didn't blame him, but what Zanpu said was right, it shouldn't be difficult for the spies in Longyou to find out where Su Cheng was guarding the grain and grass.

In his opinion, the difficult thing is to go behind the enemy lines and capture Su Cheng alive.

Therefore, Zaji Gun hesitated for a moment, and asked respectfully: "Zanpu, is Su Cheng really that important? Although the artillery is powerful, it is too heavy and difficult to transport on the plateau, and the Tibetans are brave and good at fighting. To the artillery!"

Songtsan Gampo couldn't help laughing and said, "Your vision is too short-sighted. Su Cheng has the ability to turn stones into gold. Su Cheng can bring us a steady stream of wealth in Tubo!"

"And artillery is a sharp weapon for siege of cities and villages. Our warriors are brave and good at fighting in the wild, of course they don't need artillery, but when we attack a city, we need artillery. Otherwise, how many more warriors would we have in the world?"

"Look at the Tang Dynasty. There are cities all over the place. Now there are even cannons on the cities, but what if we in Tubo also have artillery? Then the cities of the Tang Dynasty are useless."

"How rich is the hinterland of the Central Plains! How docile and moist are the women in the Central Plains! Don't you want it?"

"If there is Su Cheng, one day, I, Songtsan Gampo, will definitely destroy the Tang Dynasty and occupy that vast, prosperous and rich land!"

Zhaji Gun couldn't help feeling emotional when he heard this. He just came back from Datang, now when he closes his eyes, the bustling scene of Chang'an and those beautiful and gentle women of Datang will appear in his mind.

What a wonderful thing it would be to occupy the Central Plains in the future!
Zaji Gun said excitedly: "If Zanpu sends troops to attack Datang, I would like to be the vanguard!"
