The Record of Swordsmen in the Late Sui and Early Tang Dynasties

Chapter 797 780 six: The agreement is reached, the king leads the army to conquer
The next morning, as soon as the three of them had breakfast, the old king sent someone to invite the three of them.

The three of them followed the official who passed the decree into the main hall where the king stayed.

I saw that the old king was thinking about something with his head down.

"Your Majesty, Wuji and the three of them are here."

When the old king heard this, he raised his head quickly.

"Wuji, you are here! Sit down quickly.

Yesterday afternoon, the envoy I sent came back.

well!The emperor of your Tang Dynasty is really powerful. Taking advantage of the civil strife in our country, he opened his mouth like a lion.

Well, what he wants is 20 horses and 20 sheep!

How black do you think he is! "

Duan Wuji grinned when he heard this.

"Your Majesty, is there more than that?
Let me tell you that it is my bad idea to want these 20 horses and 20 sheep.

If it is what I mean to the ministers, I will ask you for 800 million taels of silver at one time.

If you give less, then our country will absolutely ignore these things in your country.

Since I have a relatively good relationship with you, I have the cheek to lower the price.

If you don’t believe me, you can ask your envoy if this is the case.

Besides, we don't ask you to pay for these things in one year, we ask you to pay in ten years, I don't think this will put too much pressure on your country!

If you are reluctant to take out such a small thing, then you are too stingy!

If you are too stingy, it only shows that your willingness to cooperate with Chao Dynasty is not too strong!

If that's the case, it's not too late for us to terminate the cooperation now!

Besides, don't the anti-kings in the north have tens of thousands of horses? Aren't they all blue cavalry?
If we beat them, it shouldn't be a problem for us to get tens of thousands of horses.

Your Majesty the King, if you win this defense battle, you will definitely earn money and not accompany you! "

The old king grinned wryly and said, "Wuji! Sit down first, it's not easy to defeat those three-way anti-kings!

Let me tell you, if it weren't for those big mountains blocking it, our regime would have been finished long ago.

Because my dam is the largest and the products in this dam are relatively abundant, that's why I've struggled for so long.

Promise, you don't know!The rebel army outside that dam now has no less than 20 people. The army of our dynasty is now full of [-] to [-] people!

We are replenishing the source of soldiers now, but they are also replenishing the source of soldiers now!

Because of the open support of those two big countries outside of them, the source of soldiers replenished by them is far more than ours.

How to fight this battle, I am getting more and more hopeless in my heart.

Although the conditions put forward by your emperor are relatively harsh.But these conditions, I can still agree.

As long as I can keep my royal power, it's nothing to do something.

Wuji, I will immediately send the envoy back to your country, and I have agreed to all the conditions put forward by your emperor.

well!If you don't agree, there's nothing you can do about it!

How to fight this battle, you quickly think of a way for me!

In this war of defending our home and country, I rely entirely on you to find a way for me. "

Duan Wuji laughed when he heard this.

"As long as you agree! To be honest, we've been waiting for your news for the past few days.

Now that you have agreed to our conditions, then this matter will be easy to handle.

Your Majesty, why don't you do it this way, now that there are two ways of rebelling against the king in the north and south, which way is the most violent.

Let's provoke the king who is the most violent, let's attack their arrogance first, and let them know how powerful we are.

With this opportunity, we can also boost the momentum of the army.

After raising the momentum of the army, let's find a way to eliminate them one by one. "

The old country laughed out loud.

"Okay! You have a good idea!

If you want to say that the most troublesome one is the anti-king of the South Road!

They are the most numerous of the three anti-kings, and they are also the most powerful anti-kings!

As long as you can shock them in the shortest time, that's the best.

The northern pass is guarded by my eldest prince Songtsen Gampo.

My eldest son is very good at using soldiers, and there won't be any problems with him in a short time.

The mountain pass in the south is led by my second son Songtsan Uza.

Although he can be considered to be able to use soldiers, his ability is incomparable to that of his eldest brother!

In my opinion, let's use the Southern Route Army as a breakthrough point. Let's win the battle first, and then look at it! "

Duan Wuji listened and nodded.

"Okay! Let's do that then.

Your Majesty, my elder brother Chai Shao, he is a man of prudence and wisdom.

If we talk about conquering cities and fighting on the battlefield, he may be weaker than the two of us.

In terms of defending the enemy, he is probably stronger than our two brothers!

In my opinion, let me, Brother Chai, be sent to defend the pass to the west.

Ask him to assist the guard at the west pass to guard the pass. After we have dealt with the enemies in the south, we will concentrate on dealing with the enemies in the north.

The remaining enemy soldiers on the road to the west, let's deal with them finally.

Your Majesty, what do you think of this? "

"Okay! Let's do it as you said.

Ladies and gentlemen, what kind of temporary official position can you arrange for Chai Shao? "

All the ministers heard the discussion, and finally, a minister stood up.

"Your Majesty, since he is an official sent by the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he must be the best general of the Tang Dynasty.

None of us know that the generals of the Tang Dynasty were all good at guarding the gate!

What kind of official position you confer on someone, maybe they don't think much of it.

However, you can tell the general guarding the western mountain pass that Chai Shao is his deputy.

If something happens, just ask him to listen to the opinion of this assistant, isn't it enough? What's the matter with this! "

The king of the Tupan Kingdom laughed when he heard this.

"Okay! Let's do that.

Chai Shao, go to the west mountain pass tomorrow and assist the general there to guard the pass.

As for your position, you are the deputy commander in chief guarding the mountain pass in the west. "

Chai Shao laughed when he heard this.

"Okay, then I'll take office tomorrow.

Your Majesty, will you send someone to see me off? "

"That's natural, this is necessary."

The old king thought for a while and said: "Wuji!

The League has already made a decision. This morning, I will take the two of you to the expedition. Let's try to turn this unfavorable situation as soon as possible and show the prestige of our army.

There are still [-] elite soldiers in my capital city. Let's take them with us tomorrow, and let's see if the situation in the south can get a fundamental improvement. "

After discussing the matter like this, Duan Wuji and the others chatted with the old king for a while, and then went back to their room to rest.

Back in the room, Chai Shao looked at Duan Wuji and said: "Brother, you two are the main force in this expedition, you must pay attention to safety."

Duan Wuji laughed when he heard this.

"Brother Chai, don't worry. Nothing will happen to us brothers.

If we don't have this assurance, then we dare not take on this dangerous job.

Brother Chai, you have to pay attention to two points when you go to defend the West Mountain Pass this time. One is to establish a good relationship with the general guarding the West Mountain Pass, and the other is to do the defense work as well as possible.

As long as you have nothing to do with these two mountain passes, then buy me time.

After the two of us dealt with the enemies in the south, we turned back to deal with the enemies in the north.

After clearing away the enemies from both routes, let's finally deal with the enemies in the west. "

Chai Shao listened and nodded.

"Well, that's great!
I don't have any other skills. If I keep a barrier or something, I don't think my ability will be exhausted.

Don't worry, two brothers, I will buy you enough time, so don't worry about this. "

After finishing speaking, Chai Shao turned and went into the house.

The next morning, I just finished breakfast.

The manager of Buzawa came to Chai Shao, and he was ordered by the king to lead him to take office immediately.

Duan Wuji Tieniu said: "Brother Tieniu, let's clean up too, the old king will definitely send someone to find us brothers in a while.

Let's also prepare for the expedition. "

"Well, all right then.

When we pack up, we two brothers will go over. "

As soon as the two brothers had packed up, the old king sent for them.

The old king looked at Duan Wuji and said: "Wuji! Have you tidied up, we should leave after tidying up.

If you two have any valuables on you, you can put them in my palace first.

Take them with you when you go. "

Duan Wuji said with a smile: "This time when we came out, our two brothers brought some money.

My brothers and I plan to buy some Cordyceps and sell them when we go back, so as to earn some money to spend.

Your Majesty, since you said so, let us put it in your palace.

After our brothers help you pacify the country, let's take them to buy Cordyceps when we leave. "

With that said, Duan Wuji took the lead to untie his burden.

When Tieniu saw Duan Wuji like this, he quickly untied his burden.

The two untied the bundles, only to see that one bundle was filled with white silver, and the other bundle was filled with yellow and orange gold.

The gold in the burdens of the two people is the same, both are 36 gold bricks!

The amount of silver is about the same.

Each person probably has about 1000 taels.

The old king smiled and said: "This time you brought back a lot of money!

Well, you both have much the same amount of gold, 36 gold bricks each.

This is a total of 72 gold bricks.

It seems that you are really rich! "

Tie Niu laughed and said, "We borrowed the gold when we went out.

Besides, is such a small amount of money still called money? "

The old king was speechless for a while, and quickly said to an eunuch beside him: "You put all their gold and silver into our treasury.

You keep these things for others, this is not the gold and silver in our treasury, did you hear me clearly? "

"Yes! Your Majesty.

The minister understood. "

After finishing speaking, the eunuch waved to the left and right, and immediately four more young eunuchs came over.

These people wrapped up the gold and silver when they saw it, and then a few people slipped them away.

The old king said with a smile: "It's not too early now, Wuji! Tieniu, since you have nothing to do, let's go now.

Our troops have assembled in that little square.

I have ordered people to get the horses and weapons for you two outside the gate of this palace. "

Duan Wuji said with a smile: "If this is the case, then what are we waiting for, isn't it just such a dam, we arrived just after noon.

Tomorrow morning, we can fight them. "

The old king laughed out loud.

"Wuji, this is the best!
When the battle starts tomorrow, I will personally beat the drums to cheer you up, Gu Wang. "

"Okay, let's settle that.

Let's go then. "

Several people stepped out of the palace gate and got on their horses.

The old king gathered the only cavalry he had gathered, went out of the south gate, rushed straight to the south mountain pass of the dam.

This dam has a radius of three to four hundred miles, and the capital of the Turpan Kingdom is basically still in the center of this dam.

They are more than 100 miles away from the Nanshan Pass, and it took them less than two hours to arrive at this distance.

The main guard guarding the Nanshan Pass is Songzan Uza, the second son of the old king. This man is a young man in his 20s, and his age is not much different from that of Duan Wuji!

Today the old king is going to personally lead the army and lead a team to help them here. Songtsan Uza has already received the letter in advance.

This news made Songtsan Uza very happy.

As soon as the king of Tupan Kingdom arrived, Songtsan Uza led dozens of generals to take him over.

The old king looked at his tired-looking younger son and said distressedly: "I said Uza, how is the recent battle going?

Did the battle go well? "

Songtsan Uza smiled wryly after hearing this, "Now we are outnumbered, can this battle be fought smoothly!

The enemy army fights against the enemy every day, how dare we people go out, isn't it courting death if we go out?

I have sent troops out before, and they were defeated every time. On two occasions, almost all the people I sent out were dead.

After so many lessons learned, I will never fall for that again.

No matter how they fight against the enemy, I ordered the soldiers not to send troops.

Whoever dares to disobey, I will never forgive.

Now the war has entered that stalemate.

The enemy is unable to attack for a long time, and our army is unable to send troops.

Father, isn't your old man here today? Why don't we meet them again tomorrow? "

"Does this need to be said? If we don't meet them tomorrow, what do you think we are doing here!

However, let's listen to Wuji and the others this time, and for tomorrow's battle, let's listen to Wuji and the others.

He is a military master, and his experience in fighting is much richer than ours! "

"Well, all right then.

As long as he can lead us to victory, that's fine. "

Duan Wuji said with a smile: "Since this is the case, let's go to the front and have a look. According to the specific situation, let's discuss the specific combat plan."

"Alright then, if that's the case, then I'll lead you there.

Now those bastards are probably scolding before that battle. "
