Chapter 504 Tubo’s Strategy

Question: When Tibet and the Han fought, who suffered the worst? Answer: Various tribes and ethnic groups at the border between the two countries.

Although Tubo's attack on the Han was under Chisang Yangdun's plan, it officially launched its attack on the Han in August.

But in reality, around June, the vanguard force led by Lu Dongzan had already begun the work of wiping out the surrounding alien races. The Dongnu Kingdom was destroyed, the Bai Lanqiang was wiped out, and the Dangxiang Qiang was expelled...

Well, the entire foreign race in the southeast region, except for the Tuoba clan of Dang Xiangqiang, basically all the large and small forces that stood in front of Tubo were crushed by Tubo.

The main reason is that the Tuoba clan is the strongest among the Dangxiang Qiang people today, and it is rumored to be related to the Tuoba clan of Xianbei.

I don't know if there are, but at least Tubo couldn't eat them in one breath, so they asked them to evacuate with the remaining party members.

Otherwise, the historical Dangxiang would have been wiped out long ago like the Eastern Lady Kingdom and Bai Lanqiang, and there would be no chance of rising later.

The approximate location of Pan Song selected by Tubo was Pan Song County, just south of the current Huanglong Jiuzhai Airport in Sichuan.

This is an important gateway to the northwest. The territory has high terrain and many peaks. It gradually spreads from the southeast valley to the northwest grassland. For the Tibetans, they can play their advantages, especially the grazing cattle and sheep accompanying the army.

All I saw was that with him as the center, a halo of light emerged. A stern girl riding a patterned tiger appeared from the back of Lu Dongzan, and a burst of cold air from the spine to the brain rushed straight to every Tubo warrior. mind.

"Father, don't worry, I will be by your side and won't run around!" Zanshiruduobu replied seriously.

At this moment, the Tubo flag followed the defeat of the states and counties on the border of the Han Dynasty, especially the Dangxiang Qiang people. It still did not stop, but continued to move towards the territory of the Han Dynasty. For the first time, the Tubo flag was planted on Songzhou, the territory of the Han Dynasty.

But just as Zan Xiruo finished speaking, there was a commotion in the mountains and forests, and two Qianhu who went up the mountain to investigate were baptized by the rain of arrows from the Han army!
Zan Xiruo's face turned red and he was about to say something, but Lu Dongzan said, "Don't be distracted, the enemy we have to face is a big man!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a large number of Han soldiers rushing out of the mountains and forests on both sides, and they charged down the hillside.

For a while, the shouts were continuous and deafening. The ferocity of this momentum made people feel terrified.

In an instant, the Tubo soldiers who were originally panic calmed down immediately.

Lu Dongzan nodded when he heard his son's serious answer, then observed the surrounding environment, and said seriously to the Asuka soldiers, "Let Qianhu continue to explore the way forward, especially the cliffs on both sides, don't slack off!"

But Lu Dongzan didn't panic at all when faced with the situation in front of him.

"Zan Xiruo, we have now entered the border of the Han Dynasty, so be careful on the next road!" Lu Dongzan carefully told his young son.

To be honest, when the army encounters dangers on its way forward, for many people it is impossible to form a military formation at all. Most good generals may be rolled up by these soldiers, and then they don't know how to escape.

"The hillside is so steep, and we came so quickly, how could there be anyone here!" Zan Xiruo said.

When the Bird Soldiers heard this, they immediately began to convey Lu Dongzan's order. The Tubo army sent two thousand households along the mountains to explore the surrounding environment to ensure that their army would not encounter any danger on the way.

"Blessing from Goddess Danma!" Zan Xiruo looked at the halo of light at his father's feet and couldn't help but express his heartfelt envy.

The Shu army generals Lingbao and Lei Tong who were attacking at this moment, together with the Shu soldiers, originally wanted to make a sneak attack by taking advantage of the geographical location. However, they were discovered by the Tubo army and had to launch an attack in advance.

They originally planned to rush into the Tubo army and fight, or at least cause chaos. But his own army had just rushed into the Tubo army and had just raised the Han sword. The Tubo army actually recovered from the chaos and even became inexplicably calm. Lingbao couldn't help but feel a toothache.
"Legion talent!"

Thank God, He Dehe could actually face a monster with such abilities.

How many people in the entire Han Dynasty have legion talents? At least they are warriors at the level of dragon generals or commanders who can command tens of thousands of soldiers.

Is the guard of a small border town worthy of facing a monster like this? ?

Lei Tong complained repeatedly in his heart, but the pace of commanding the army from offense to defense was not slow.

Fortunately, this small area was not suitable for the Tibetan army to fight, but even so, the Tibetan army's calmness in facing the Han army's attack also made Lingbao decisively determined.

Let his lieutenant Lei Tong lead some people to continue blocking the attack, while he chose to lead the large force to evacuate decisively.

This time the opponent has exceeded the upper limit of what he can deal with!
"This Han army is nothing more than that!" Zan Xiruo looked at his Tibetan army and defeated the Han army that had stayed behind. There was a bit of satisfaction in his expression. In his opinion, this legendary big man didn't seem to be very good at all. Strong!

"No, they are very strong!" Seeing that the Han army did not choose to surrender, but chose to fight to the last man, Lu Dongzan said, "They knew clearly that staying would mean dying, but they still chose to stay, not even one of them People choose to surrender. Do you think any of our Tubo tribes can do this? No! We can win just because we have more people!"

Lu Dongzan looked at the situation in front of him and murmured, "If the next Han army is full of people like this, this war will be difficult to fight!"

In fact, although Lingbao chose to cut off his tail to survive after losing the battle, he did not waste this wasted time.

Decisively continue to repair the defense system at Huangsheng Pass. Once Huangsheng Pass is broken, the entire Songpan will be truly undefendable.

Moreover, the other party is the owner of the legion's talent. No matter how high I think of them, it is not too much.

At the same time, Lingbao immediately wrote to Liu Hua asking for help. After all, he really couldn't beat his opponent this time.

To be honest, Lingbao originally thought that Tubo would take advantage of their arrival to attack Huangsheng Pass and completely occupy Fang Songpan.

But in fact, when the Tubo army came to Huangsheng Pass, they not only did not take the initiative to launch an attack, but also took the initiative to send an envoy, saying to Lingbao: "We Zanpu once said that if the princess doesn't come, I will go deep. Now. I, Tubo, once again request Princess Shang from the Han Dynasty. I hope that the Emperor of Han can reconcile the diplomatic relations between the two countries and not cause any lives to be ruined because of the princess!"

To be honest, Lingbao didn't believe Princess Shang, not to mention that the Emperor of Han had just unified the world and had no daughters at all. The current princesses of the Han Dynasty were not born yet, so Lingbao thought that Tubo was just looking for an excuse to invade.

When someone who can show the talent of the legion appears in the Tubo army, Lingbao understands that Tubo has great ambitions.

After all, even a person like me, who is the governor, does not have the talent to awaken the legion, but there are actually people in the Tibetan army opposite who can awaken.

This is a treasure that can only appear in a nation that has not lost its spirit. The Xiongnu, Goguryeo, and Japan are the opponents worthy of the attention of the Central Plains empires of all dynasties. Otherwise, they are just bastards that are not worth mentioning.

In any case, this matter cannot be handled by oneself.

Lingbao wrote his knowledge into the memorial, and then sent the Tibetan envoy to Chang'an.

It is a good thing for me not to fight for a period of time. It will give me more time to strengthen Huangsheng Pass and request reinforcements. The army of Shu King Liu Yu can arrive as soon as possible.
