The Great Grandson of the Tang Dynasty: The beginning of the slaughter of General Tiance's mans

Chapter 133: Internal and external troubles, Tubo took the opportunity to attack Yizhou
Because he had been favored by Li Shimin, Su Dingfang finally decided to send troops to Chang'an to rescue Li Shimin.

It's not that he hasn't thought about the threat of Tibet outside the border, it's just that he has guarded the border for many years and repeatedly repelled Tibetan invading armies.

But now is the transition between spring and summer, which is not the main time for Tibetan invasion. As long as he moves quickly enough, he is sure to return to Yizhou within fifteen days.

However, to be on the safe side, Su Dingfang only took away [-] soldiers and horses, and at the same time ordered the army to leave Yizhou quietly to prevent Tibet from discovering the emptiness of Yizhou's military strength.

……

Yizhou City.

It is still dark now, there is only a faint glow in the sky, and the morning star in the sky is particularly bright.

"Kakaka-"

Accompanied by the sound of a mechanism turning, the east gate of Yizhou City suddenly opened, and countless heavily armed Yizhou troops exited the city in an orderly manner. The entire process did not make any noise except for the sound of subtle footsteps and the clash of soldiers and armor.

After the army left the city, they quickly disappeared into the thick night.

The whole process was extremely secretive and fast. When the army left, the gates of Yizhou City were immediately closed, as if nothing had happened.

However, this scene was captured by two people not far away who were hiding in the woods and wearing strange clothes.

These two people look different from the Han people, and their clothes are also very different, which is extremely strange. If the people or soldiers of Yizhou City saw them, they would definitely recognize their identities at a glance.

These two people were from Tubo in the Western Regions. To be precise, they should be soldiers.

In a place like the border fortress, it is normal for the two bordering countries to send troops to patrol the border. This was the case for these two soldiers, but they never expected to see the amazing scene of Yizhou's army leaving the city.

After the Yizhou Army disappeared into the night in the distance, the two of them dared to walk out of the woods tremblingly.

"The Yizhou Army...where are they going? Is it possible that they are planning to attack Tibet at night?"

One of the soldiers said with a pale face that the tens of thousands of Yizhou troops just put a lot of pressure on him.

The fear in the other's eyes has not faded yet. Hearing this, he shook his head and said: "That direction is not the direction to our country. It should be going somewhere else."

"No matter where they are going, we have to report such a big movement quickly. You continue to watch here, and I will go back immediately.

"it is good!"

After the two discussed for a while, one of the soldiers left immediately.

……

After the Tibetan spy brought the news back, he quickly attracted the attention of the Tibetan high-level officials.

"Su Dingfang's army left Yizhou City?"

In the Tubo palace, Nangri Lunzan was surprised when he heard the report from the general below.

The general nodded and replied: "Yes Zanpu, according to reports from my spies, tens of thousands of troops left Yizhou City from the East City Gate in the early hours of this morning and headed towards the interior of the Central Plains. The leader has already Confirmed to be Su Dingfang."

After hearing this, Nangri Lunzan frowned, with a look of doubt on his face, and said: "What kind of conspiracy is Su Dingfang playing again? The Han people are cunning and we have to be on guard. You should immediately order someone to go and make further inquiries to see who they are." It’s not that he plans to make any big move against me, Tubo.”

"Yes, on praise."

The general nodded in agreement, then stepped back and left.

At this time, the Prime Minister of Tibet suddenly stopped him and asked, "Wait a minute, have your spies seen clearly how many troops Su Dingfang brought out of the city?"

The general was stunned when he heard this, and after thinking for a moment, he replied: "It was dark, so I couldn't see very clearly, but it is said that there are at least [-] to [-] troops."

As soon as this statement came out, all the ministers in the hall were very surprised.An army of [-] to [-] people, that’s most of Yizhou City’s strength!Su Dingfang actually left Yizhou City with so many troops?

Doesn’t that mean that Yizhou City’s current defense is unprecedentedly empty?

"Lunzan, Su Dingfang left with his army. Now is a good opportunity for us to attack Yizhou!"

A minister stood up and said excitedly, and his words also aroused the echo of many ministers.

However, some people objected and said: "I think we should not do anything without permission. The Han people have always been cunning. Who knows whether he is using a trick to induce us to send troops?"

In terms of conspiracies and intrigues, ten Tubos cannot compare to the culture of the Central Plains.

They have long been frightened by the various military strategies of Su Dingfang who was guarding the border, so many people subconsciously thought that Su Dingfang was up to something else, including Nangri Lunzan.

"You are really scared out of your wits by the Han people! If Su Dingfang really leads his troops to leave, then if we don't choose to attack now, we will miss a great opportunity!"

The minister who spoke before said with a cold snort.

"You will regret it when you are defeated!"

The latter confronted him tit for tat without giving in, and finally set their sights on Nangri Lunzan.

Nangri Lunzan was also very hesitant and asked the Tibetan Prime Minister: "Prime Minister, what do you think of this matter?"

The Prime Minister of Tubo had been thinking about something, and he came back to his senses after hearing this. After pondering for a moment, he said: "I thought that Su Dingfang had really led his troops to leave Yizhou City. Now Yizhou City's military strength is unprecedentedly empty. "

Hearing that the Prime Minister of Tibet also held this opinion, Nangri Lunzan couldn't help but curiously asked: "Why did the Prime Minister say this?"

"I heard a lot of news about the Central Plains from the caravans traveling to and from the Central Plains. I heard that Li Chengdao, the grandson of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, is competing with the King of Qin Li Shimin for the throne of the Tang Dynasty. It seems that he is already attacking Chang'an City. "

The Prime Minister of Tubo said calmly.

"Great grandson Li Chengdao...is the evil star who destroyed the Eastern Turks and killed hundreds of thousands of Turks?"

Nangri Lunzan couldn't help but ask.

After Li Chengdao destroyed the Turks, his reputation has spread to all foreign barbarians, and he deserves to be evaluated as a ferocious one.

After Li Chengdao's name was mentioned, the ministers in the palace were also shocked. Apparently they had heard of Li Chengdao's evil reputation.

"Yes Zanpu, Su Dingfang used to be a general under Li Shimin. If the situation in Chang'an City was not critical, how could he leave so easily. Therefore, I boldly speculate that Su Dingfang should have led troops to help Li Shimin."

"And he specifically chose to leave the city secretly at dawn. Obviously he didn't want us to find out."

The Prime Minister of Tubo replied, his analysis was very clear and logical, and Nangri Lun couldn't help but nod his head in praise.

The Tibetan Prime Minister then said: "Zanpu might as well send troops to test the defenders of Yizhou City first. If they choose to fight back without hesitation, it means that they have sufficient strength."

"If they choose to defend and not come out, this is not the character of the Yizhou Army at all, and it will prove that their strength is empty."

"Good! Good! Good!"

After hearing this, Nangri Lunzan was very excited and praised repeatedly, "According to what the Prime Minister said, if the Prime Minister is really right, then I will give the Prime Minister the first credit in capturing Yizhou City!"

"Thank you Zamp."

The Prime Minister of Tubo looked happy and bowed to thank him.
