Datang's free and easy concubine

Chapter 1457
Cheng Yaojin looked back at the whole battlefield, and said dumbfounded: "How do you find Songtsan Gampo's body?"

There are tens of thousands of corpses on the entire battlefield, and it is not easy to identify Songtsan Gampo's corpse from these tens of thousands of corpses.

It's not that it's difficult, but it's time-consuming.

Su Cheng pondered: "Since Songtsan Gampo had someone put on his armor, it means that he is very afraid of death. Since he is so afraid of death, he will definitely not die quietly."

Cheng Yaojin scratched his head and said, "What do you mean? Does he have to die so shockingly?"

Li Ji smiled and said, "What Su Cheng means is that Songtsan Gampo may have escaped."

Yuchi Gong couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard this, and said in surprise, "What? Let that old boy Songtsan Gampo escape?"

Songtsan Gampo was a big fish, if he killed Songtsan Gampo, it might be more credit than beheading the tens of thousands of Tubo soldiers and horses.

Cheng Yaojin was also anxious, and said repeatedly: "How can Songtsan Gampo escape? Hurry up and send someone to chase after him!"

Su Cheng said in a deep voice: "Although we are not sure, there is a high possibility that Songtsen Gampo has already escaped. If we wait until we identify all the corpses, I am afraid that Songtsen Gampo will not know where he fled to."

Li Ji pondered and said: "There are indeed many fish that escaped through the gap, and Songtsan Gampo is probably among them. No matter what, Songtsan Gampo must not be let go, but we don't I know which direction Songtsan Gampo fled to, so I suggest that we each send a cavalry to search for Songtsan Gampo, how about that?"

Cheng Yaojin nodded and said: "Okay, even if Songtsan Gampo is here, he should hunt down those escaped Tibetans."

Li Ji turned his head and ordered: "Take the surrendered Tubo people and dispose of the corpses of these Tubo people from four directions, and at the same time identify whether there is Songtsan Gampo."

Su Cheng drove his horse back to the musket formation with his own soldiers. The soldiers were already sitting on the ground, eating dry food and resting, but they still kept their formation. If there was an enemy, they could stand up and form a gun formation.

Xue Wanche, Li Yun and others were discussing excitedly. Although the battle was exhausting, it was very enjoyable.

Beheading so many Tubo people and severely injuring Tubo, after returning to the court, they will definitely be rewarded for their merits, and their credit is absolutely indispensable.

However, the excitement is the excitement, and they still feel regretful.

"I don't know which lucky guy killed Songtsan Gampo!" Li Yun expressed regret and envy.

Xue Wanche slapped his thigh, and said angrily: "Isn't it? Those Tubo people have holes in their heads, and they swarmed to the west to break through, so they can't run to us? I don't know which lucky guy took such a big deal. !"

Feng Shun said enviously: "That guy must have stepped on a lot of shit in his previous life!"

Seeing Su Cheng driving his horse, Xue Wanche couldn't wait to ask: "Duke, who killed Songtsan Gampo?"

Su Cheng shook his head slightly and said, "I found a body wearing Songtsen Gampo's armor, but after identification, it was not Songtsen Gampo. I guess Songtsen Gampo probably escaped with the golden cicada's trick."

Xue Wanche was surprised: "Huh? Let Songtsan Gampo escape?"

Su Cheng said in a deep voice: "I'm not sure. After all, the corpses all over the place have not been identified yet. However, I guess that Songtsan Gampo may have escaped. It was far away, so we decided to send a cavalry from each army to search and pursue."

After hearing this, Xue Wanche and others understood, no wonder they didn't hear the cheers, they didn't find any trace of Songtsan Gampo, and they suddenly had expectations in their hearts, which meant that they still had a chance.

Su Cheng smiled and said: "Although everyone is very tired after fighting for a day, after all, our cavalry has been nourished and recharged for so long, so, Lao Xue, you take all the Shenji Battalion out to hunt down the fish that slipped through the net, and search for pine nuts." Tsangampo's trail!"

After hearing this, Xue Wanche patted his chest and said: "Don't worry, my lord, our cavalry has been nourished for so long, and we have only fought for a day. We are not tired at all, and most importantly, our horses are not tired at all. My old Xue If we go out, we will definitely capture Songtsan Gampo!"

Su Cheng nodded slightly and said: "It's not too late, let's go now, bring more dry food."

Xue Wanche immediately clasped his fists and said, "The last general obeys the order!"

"All the brothers in the cavalry battalion bring dry food, and follow me like chasing Songtsen Gampo!" Xue Wanche shouted.

The messengers sent orders everywhere, except for the wounded soldiers of the cavalry battalion, they all packed their bags and got on their horses decisively. Although they were tired after fighting for a day, they had already rested for a long time, and they had waited too long for this day. It's just that after such a battle, I still feel unsatisfactory.

The pursuit should be done as early as possible, so Xue Wanche immediately galloped towards the southwest with his cavalry.

The four cavalry galloped into the distance against the afterglow of the setting sun, and soon disappeared on the horizon.

Su Cheng shook his head slightly. In all fairness, he felt that it was unlikely that Xue Wanche and the others would catch up with Songtsan Gampo.

After all, more than one cavalry escaped. If only Songtsan Gampo escaped, he could still follow the trail. But so many cavalry escaped, and they were all small cavalry, so the traces left were small and messy. How could it be so easy to find the whereabouts of Songtsan Gampo?

Moreover, Songtsen Gampo must be more familiar with the terrain than Xue Wanche and the others, and it is easier to get rid of the pursuers.

Of course, Su Cheng still hoped from the bottom of his heart that Xue Wanche and the others could pursue Songtsen Gampo. No matter who caught or killed Songtsan Gampo, it would be fine. In short, Songtsen Gampo could not be returned to Tibet.

Although Songtsan Gampo lost a lot this time, Su Cheng did not underestimate Songtsan Gampo. This guy can dominate Tubo and lay a solid foundation for Tubo, making Tubo prosperous for 200 years, which is absolutely extraordinary. It will bring a lot of trouble to Datang.

Moreover, Su Cheng has been thinking about annexing Tubo. Although the plateau is barren and the conditions are harsh, the geographical location is very important.

Songtsan Gampo can be regarded as a wise king of Tubo. With him, it is not so easy to plot against Tubo.

It's a pity that Songtsan Gampo escaped.

Whether he can catch up with Songtsan Gampo can only do his best and obey the destiny.

Su Cheng shook his head slightly and stopped thinking about it, but ordered in a deep voice: "Shenji Battalion line up and go back to the camp to rest!"

Not only that, Su Cheng also sent someone to notify Li Ji, Cheng Yaojin, and Yu Chigong to let the army enter the city to rest.

Of course, many soldiers were still busy, cleaning up the battlefield, guarding and escorting the Tibetan captives, and as the night fell, blazing torches were lit everywhere.
