Recreating the prosperous Tang begins with summoning players

Chapter 313
Dadouba Valley is only [-] kilometers away from Zhangye City. Shang Qixin'er was afraid that the army would be ambushed by the Tang army, so she ordered the troops to move very slowly.

After walking for two full days, I saw the city wall of Zhangye City.

Before arriving at Zhangye City, Shang Qi, who had been guarding against the Tang army's attack all the way, finally felt relieved.

He ordered the army to set up camp, and summoned all the generals under his command to discuss the matter of attacking the city.

Dongri Malang walked into the big tent proudly, and the plot of Dadoubagu made him become Shang Qi's confidant. Even Gar, who had captured Dadoubagu, was suppressed by Dongri Malang .

Gar lowered his head and walked into the big tent. He was very dissatisfied, but he tried his best to suppress his emotions.

Gal is considered to be Shang Qixin'er's retainer, but his family is originally in the north of Tubo East Road, far away from Tianzhu City.

In the eyes of many of Shang Qixin'er's retainers, Gar and Da Lun are inseparable, and there is always a tendency to betray.

This is also normal, and the relationship between the monarch and the vassals in Tubo is also constantly changing.

It is also common for some retainers to be poached by other nobles and lead their territories and troops to seek refuge with other lords.

And the territory where Gar is located is the main road leading to the core area of ​​Tubo. He has been flirting with Zanpu's envoy for a long time, and even Shang Qixin'er suspects that he will betray him and join Zanpu.

This is completely incomprehensible in the Tang Dynasty, the emperor had no motive at all to poach the corners of his guests.

However, under the feudal system of Tubo, the most influential of Tubo Zanpu is the direct fiefdom of Zanpu.

Gal did not gain Shang Qixin'er's trust. This time, Shang Qixin'er ordered Gal to take all the troops in the territory to join the battle.

Gal knew that he was not welcome, so he could only bite the bullet and join the war with his illness.

In contrast, Winter Marang is the castle owner Shang Qixin relies on.

His territory is not far from Tianzhu City, and his daily offerings are also in place.

Because the territory is close, they often attend the banquets in Tianzhu City, and the monk Qi Xin'er has a close relationship.

Dongri Malang looked at Gar arrogantly, then sat down in the big tent, waiting for Shang Qixin'er's arrival.

After waiting for all the generals to arrive, Shang Qixin'er walked into the big tent with her son Dai Ze.

Dai Ze, who was demoted to be commander-in-chief, naturally walked before the generals.

The ten thousand elders like Gar were secretly angry in their hearts. Seeing the arrogant look on Dai Ze's face, they were even more dissatisfied with the successor of Dalun.

But Dongri Malang and other nobles nodded and bowed to Dai Ze, showing closeness and support.

After Shang Qixin was seated, all the generals stood up and gave a military salute.

But Shang Qi Xin'er did not let them sit down as before, but continued to say:

"Today, the army will take a rest for a while, and wait until tomorrow to attack Zhangye City."

"However, this Yecheng has been run by Han people for many years, and the city walls are tall and strong. Let's discuss how to attack it."

Shang Qi Xin'er's eyes swept across the standing soldiers, secretly happy in her heart.

This is the advice given by Master Jihu from Zampting, "The superior should have the dignity of the superior."

In order to maintain her majesty as a host, after reprimanding several generals who were disrespectful to her, Shang Qixin'er has become more and more arrogant recently.

Then a few personal soldiers walked into the big tent and removed the beard beds behind the generals' buttocks. At this moment, Garr finally understood that he might have to stand and discuss matters in the future.

Winter Marang said first: "Dalun, Zhangye City is tall, but according to our intelligence, there are not many defenders."

"Our army should attack with the whole army and surround Zhangye City. When the Tang army sees the momentum of our army, they will definitely lose their positions and surrender in a few days."

Shang Qi Xin'er nodded slightly, Dongri Malang's thoughts were also in line with her own, now the army of the headquarters has not made any achievements, the soldiers are exhausted, and there are quite a lot of complaints in the army. Only by taking Zhangye City quickly can the army's morale be stabilized.

Shang Qixin nodded, and was about to agree to Dongri Malang's plan.

Seeing Gar come out and say: "Dalun! No!"

I only saw Gal saying: "Da Lun, Zhangye City is tall, although the defenders are not many, but the city defense is well prepared, our army will definitely lose troops and lose generals if we attack rashly."

"The location of Yuchixin's troops is unknown. If our entire army attacks without leaving a reserve, and Yuchixin suddenly kills us, the entire army may be in danger of being defeated."

Speaking of Yuchi Xin, Shang Qixin's expression also changed.

Since turning over the Dadou Bagu, Shang Qixin'er has been checking the location of Yu Chixin's army.

Yu Chixin defeated himself many times, which was a serious problem for Tubo.

Although we know from Dai Ze's defeated army that Yu Chixin's men are full of about 5000 people.

Not seeing this army, Shang Qi still felt uneasy in her heart.

But the scouts sent out did not find any trace of Yuchixin's army at all.

Shang Qixin'er hesitated again when she heard what Gar said.

Gal continued: "Zhangye city is tall, but there are many people in the city. Hexi has not been peaceful these years, and Zhangye's grain storage is not much."

"We might as well send out advance troops to surround Zhangye City and cut off the supplies of Zhangye City. The army camps on the edge of Zhangye City to suppress the defenders in Zhangye City."

"Seeing the army behind us in the city, they must not dare to break through by force, so they can only defend the city."

"As long as you stay trapped for more than a month, and when there is chaos in Zhangye City, you can naturally take Zhangye without losing troops."

Many generals in the tent also nodded their heads, and Garr's strategy of defending himself was obviously more secure.

Gal continued: "Our army will not disperse, no matter how brave and skilled Yu Chixin is, he will not dare to attack us lightly."

"If Yu Chixin comes to rescue Zhangye, or King Jianning sends troops from Longyou to support Zhangye, then we can defeat them outside the city!"

Gal's strategy was indeed sound, and all the soldiers turned their attention to Shang Qi Xin'er, waiting for his decision.

Shang Qixin remained silent, while his son Dai Ze, who was standing in the first row below him, quietly gave Winter Marang a wink.

When Dongri Marang received the signal, he immediately jumped out and said:

"Gar, aren't you afraid of the Tang people?"

Gal was also furious: "Am I afraid of the people of Tang? I took the big battle and pulled the valley! Without me, you are still drinking the northwest wind in the south of Qilian Mountain!"

Winter Marang pointed to Gar's nose and said, "I think you are afraid of the Tang people? We have [-] troops, can't we take down the small city of Zhangye?"

"Yuchi can't trust 5000 people, so he scared you like this? If he dares to come with [-] people, he will never come back!"

"coward!"

In winter, Marang pointed at his nose and scolded Gal, which also made Gal's forehead twitch violently.

He was about to rush over to have a physical fight with Dongri Marang, but was stopped by Shang Qixin'er's cough.

Shang Qixin said: "You are all generals with tens of millions of soldiers! How dare you fight like a child? Is your courage here?"

Gal seemed to have been splashed with cold water, and Shang Qi felt that this was going to be sidelined.

Sure enough, Shang Qixin'er first reprimanded Gar in a stern tone: "Gar! Is anyone's fist bigger than anyone else in military affairs? Do you have the strength to fight the Tang people?"

Gal lowered his head, and Shang Qi Xin'er said to Winter Marang again:

"If you have something to say, can't you talk about it? Today's discussion is about the strategy of the army. Everyone can speak freely. Even if what you say makes sense, you can't stop others from talking."

Shang Qixin'er was so obvious that he was sidelined, and the soldiers finally saw that he was inclined to the view of Dongri Malang, and the army besieged Zhangye and captured Zhangye City as soon as possible.

Most of the generals in the account said excitedly: "I am willing to be the first! Take Zhangye City for Dalun!"

After overcoming the great battle and pulling the valley, the morale of Tubo gradually recovered.

The Tang army is elite, but there are many people in Tubo.

The army has been on the expedition for so long, but they still haven't made any contribution, and they haven't grabbed any spoils.

If he just returned home like this, wouldn't the battle be in vain?

It is not for nothing, so many laborers have left the land, if this battle cannot bring back enough spoils, people will starve to death in the territory in winter.

The generals who are eager to make contributions naturally support the suggestion of a quick attack on Malang in winter.

If the city of Zhangye can be taken down, then Shang Qixin'er will definitely let the army plunder Zhangye. At that time, military achievements, treasures, slaves, and women will all be available.

Seeing the high morale of the generals, Shang Qi was also very satisfied. He said: "If we conquer Zhangye, allow the army to rob the city for three days!"

"Wan Sheng! Wan Sheng!"

Gar was submerged in the fanatical belligerence, and he sighed slightly. It seemed that Shang Qi had already made up his mind, and this discussion was just a show.

The military discussion dispersed, and Marang returned to the camp in winter, and summoned his centurions to convey Shang Qixin'er's meaning.

Hearing that the city could be robbed for three days, these Tubo nobles also became excited.

Only Bawu in the corner did not cheer with everyone.

Bawu knew the fighting power of the Tang army, and Tubo never took advantage of it this time.

Bawu had already eaten all the dry food he had brought, and in order to support the war, he had brought all the cattle and sheep in the territory.

Bawu knew that if the battle was lost, a castle owner like Dongri Marang could still live a luxurious life.

Shang Qixin'er's wealth is not affected, but a manor owner like him will not be able to survive.

After the defeat last time, Shang Qixin'er was going to farm by herself. This time, she was requisitioned, and the family's fields were cultivated by her younger siblings.

He suddenly thought of what Monk Yuantong said, is it all worth it?
Tubo has never occupied Hexi and Longyou, and there are not many people who can speak Tubo here.

Datang never invaded Tubo, but why did Tubo attack Datang again and again?

Bawu saw the fanatical officers in the room, and finally understood the driving force behind Tubo's expansion - "the greed of the nobility"!
But what can this bring to the ordinary people in Tubo?

I am afraid there will be nothing but destruction.

In a hidden canyon near Daxue Mountain, Yu Chixin had already obtained a detailed map of the Tubo military camp.

This place is only twenty miles away from the battlefield, Cui Tao has already prepared supplies, and Yu Chixin lay in ambush here for three days.

This decisive battle concerning the fate of Hexi is finally about to start!
