Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1262

"Zanpu, in the current situation, we can only leave some soldiers and horses behind. As long as we last for a day or even half a day, we can rush back."

As long as someone can sacrifice himself to buy time for their escape, they will be able to return to Tibet alive.

However, when the general spoke out his idea, all the tribal leaders remained silent.

They all knew that whoever broke the queen would only be wiped out by Tang Jun.

But people like them, who would like to be wiped out by Tang Jun?
They all want to think about their own tribe, and it is simply impossible for them to die.

They set their sights on Songtsan Gampo, he is Zanpu of Tubo, at this time, he has the responsibility to protect them alive, otherwise, why should they listen to Zanpu's orders?
Everyone's meaning is self-evident, and Songtsen Gampo is also a smart person, so he naturally understands what these people mean.

It must be his people who come to kill the queen, otherwise, these tribal leaders are afraid to do other things.

Songtsan Gampo frowned, he didn't want his soldiers to sacrifice, but if his soldiers didn't sacrifice, he might not be able to make these tribal leaders work for him anymore.

But under the current circumstances, he should not be in conflict with these tribal leaders.

If he wants to continue to be his own Zanpu, and it is worthy of these tribal leaders to continue to follow, he must have the appearance of being a Zanpu.

It has never been easy to be a leader.

As the boss, sometimes you have to contribute something.

Songtsan Gampo hesitated for a moment, and then ordered: "Leave two thousand soldiers and horses to stop the Tang army, and the rest of the soldiers and horses will follow me on my way."

Two thousand soldiers is not a lot, but in Songtsan Gampo's view, it is not very small. If these two thousand soldiers have the determination to die, maybe they can buy them half a day.

For them, half a day is almost enough.

Soon, Songtsen Gampo's [-] soldiers and horses were left behind, and the rest followed Songtsen Gampo on their way.

The night is getting more and more moonlight, and it is getting colder and colder.

Two thousand soldiers and horses rested in place, waiting for the arrival of Tang Jun.

Now they, in order to have better energy, they are ready to wait for work.

About an hour later, before dawn, Tang Jun finally rushed over.

An hour's rest is not a lot for the two thousand soldiers and horses in Tubo, but this hour's rest time has made their spirits somewhat better.

The night was a little dark, with torches flickering around from time to time.

After Tang Jun saw the two thousand soldiers and horses, he understood what Tubo meant.

However, Qin Tian just showed a sneer, then waved his hand and said, "Kill me."

With an order, Tang Jun's archers immediately shot at the two thousand Tubo soldiers and horses. These Tubo soldiers and horses did not expect Datang to use sharp arrows.

Datang had a lot of soldiers and horses, and there were also many sharp arrows. Two thousand Tubo soldiers and horses couldn't stand it at all.

After several rounds of sharp arrows, half of the Tubo soldiers and horses were hit by arrows. They either died or lost their lethality directly.

The rest can continue to fight.

Just when the sharp arrows stopped, they swarmed over to kill them.

But at this time, Tang Jun also directly killed him.

Tang Jun didn't rest, and they were a little tired, but they were better because they had more people and sharp weapons. Therefore, after the two sides fought hand-to-hand, Tang Jun ended the battle in a crushing way.

In Qin Tian's view, Tubo's use of [-] soldiers and horses to destroy the rear was nothing more than a useless move, and they happened to divide and destroy them.

If it's five thousand, they won't be able to destroy it easily, but two thousand is nothing to them.

After destroying the two thousand soldiers, Tang Jun did not continue to pursue, but rested for an hour, and they continued their journey after dawn. This time, they will not give up until they beat Tubo to the point of doubting life. .

Songtsen Gampo continued to flee with his soldiers and horses.

It was not until noon that it finally stopped.

They were too tired to walk, and if they didn't rest, they would have died of exhaustion or starvation before they were wiped out by Tang Jun.

So, they must now rest and eat.

After stopping, many soldiers fell to the ground and fell asleep. They were already sleepy, even if someone kicked them, they didn't think much of it.

"Zanpu, we have already escaped a long way, and Tang Jun will not come after us."

"Surely they won't come after us. Don't look around. We still have two thousand soldiers behind us. Even if they chase us, they won't be able to catch up with us."

"That's right, in three days, we'll be in Tubo territory. At that time, we don't have to worry about anything."

"........."

During the break, some tribal leaders talked to Songtsen Gampo, and Songtsen Gampo also hoped that the Tang army would not continue to chase and kill them.

However, just as they said this, a spy hurried over again: "The big thing is bad, Tang Jun is chasing you..."

Hearing that Tang Jun was chasing him again, a group of soldiers were distressed immediately. They hadn't rested much yet, so why did Tang Jun come again?

If this continues, it is impossible for them to return to Tubo alive.

The tribal leaders breathed a sigh of relief just now, but now they all tensed up again.

"What's going on, isn't it that two thousand soldiers and horses have been cut off, the Tang army can't be so fast?"

"That's right, why is Tang Jun still haunted, do he have to keep chasing and killing us like this?"

"Damn, these Tang Jun are too hateful..."

These people kept cursing, but none of them were willing to fight Tang Jun, let alone leave their soldiers and horses alone.

Seeing them like this, Songtsan Gampo was very angry in his heart. He thought that he was good at controlling Tubo, but he didn't expect it to be like this. Their tribal form like Tubo is really not conducive to their war.

They are fighting for their own interests, how can they be so powerful?

After returning, he had to solve this problem slowly.

But now, he had to find a way to return to Tubo King City alive, and he never expected that Tang Jun would behave like this.

At this moment, he really felt despair and helplessness, as well as regret.

He regretted that he shouldn't have easily used troops against Datang.

"In this situation, it is impossible to send troops and horses. We can only surrender and negotiate peace with the Tang army."

While the tribal leaders were talking, Songtsan Gampo expressed his idea that Tang Jun could not do anything to them, at least they could not destroy Tubo, so the peace negotiation must be the result that Tang Jun wanted to see.

It's nothing more than that they paid some money from Tubo.
