This four times the strength of Tuyuhun was Songtsen Gampo's confidence.
When resting halfway.
Murong Huayun came to Li Chengqian's side, hesitant to speak.
Li Chengqian looked at his troubled appearance, and said, "General Huayun, what are you asking me for?"
Murong Huayun was a little embarrassed and said: "The last general wants to ask His Highness about something."
"But it doesn't matter."
"The general heard that the mighty cannon is extremely powerful, so he was very curious. I wonder if His Highness can explain a thing or two to the general."
As soon as these words came out, Li Chengqian understood what Murong Huayun meant.
He personally led the team to Domi Pass, the most important thing was to investigate the intelligence of Tubo and study the route of attacking Tubo.
In two more months, the weather will gradually warm up, and the battle between Li Chengqian and Tubo is approaching day by day, but this time it is Tuyuhun's army that is fighting for their lives.
There is no way to do this, Murong Bai asked Li Chengqian for help, this is one of the conditions.
Of course, Murong Huayun would not think that Li Chengqian was iron-blooded and ruthless.
If Li Chengqian hadn't entered Fucheng City and beheaded Murong Chuan, Tuyuhun might not have been in such chaos, and the people didn't know what kind of suffering they would suffer.
For this matter, Murong Huayun has been thinking about how to destroy Tubo at the least cost in recent days.
And the Shenwei artillery has been haunting his mind.
When Murong Huayun first heard about the enormous power of the Shenwei Cannon, he still didn't believe it, and felt that it was too mysterious.
How can there be such a powerful weapon with such a long range in this world, if it is like this, just don't fight it at all, just open the door and surrender.
However, when he saw the ruins of the South City Gate that had been bombarded by the Shenwei artillery, he couldn't help frowning.
Although there are thousands of people who don't believe it in his heart, the facts and results are here, so there is no room for him not to believe it.
In the next few days, he gradually became acquainted with Xue Rengui and the others, and made insinuations about this matter when they were drinking together.
Although he asked very carefully, when he mentioned this matter, those people all lowered their faces, as if they had encountered some taboo.
Xue Rengui told him that what he hears is what he sees, and what he sees is what he hears. As for the other things, he can't tell him that the Shenwei artillery is the top military secret of the Tang Dynasty.
But if he wants to know, he can ask Li Chengqian directly.
After hearing this, Murong Huayun was still a little embarrassed, but Xue Rengui and the others didn't care. It would be abnormal if they were not curious about such a powerful weapon.
Murong Huayun also came to Li Chengqian for advice after a strong ideological struggle.
After all, it was a matter of life and death for the Tuyuhun soldiers. If Datang had enough divine artillery, their siege would become extremely simple, and the casualties of the soldiers would be minimized.
"Come on, sit down." Li Chengqian waved to him and said, "I know what you mean. You want to ask me how many divine cannons I have, and whether I can pull them to Domi Pass to attack Tubo."
The words fall...
Murong Huayun was a little embarrassed, "Hehe, His Royal Highness is very wise, and the lives of soldiers and generals are related, and the last general is very anxious."
Li Chengqian nodded, "Although I have iron-blooded wrists, I am not a ruthless person. Since Tuyuhun has been incorporated into my Tang Dynasty, the soldiers of Tuyuhun are my soldiers. I definitely have no reason to see my subordinates die in vain. .”
"Don't worry, I not only have the Shenwei artillery, but also have a lot of them. They have already formed an army. I will not only transfer the Shenwei army to Duomiguan, but also a medical army."
"So, the battle against Tubo is much easier than you think."
Chapter 451 The Runaway Songtsan Gambo
Hearing these words, Murong Huayun's frown suddenly relaxed, and he felt relieved.
Murong Huayun had heard about the military hospital that Li Chengqian established in Chang'an City. The military doctors who came out of it were not only good at first aid on the battlefield, but also had special medicines produced by the military hospital.
Injuries to tendons and bones, axe and sword wounds should not be too simple for Tang army medical soldiers.
On the battlefield, if every corps could be equipped with such a professional medical army, the number of casualties would be much smaller.
Of course, the money consumed by such a professional logistics army is also huge.
Fighting is fighting for money. Who doesn't want to build the army into a top-notch army, but how many people are as rich as Li Chengqian.
And not everyone wants to put money into the military.
Murong Huayun stood up and clasped his hands, speaking excitedly, "The final general will thank His Highness the Crown Prince for his hard work on behalf of Tuyuhun's [-] soldiers."
Li Chengqian was not moved at all, and waved his hand lightly, "General Hua Yun, don't take it to heart, as long as it is the generals under my command, I will definitely not let them lose their lives in vain."
At this time, Murong Huayun's loyalty to Li Chengqian had reached the extreme.
It is his honor to be a general under Li Chengqian.
Under the leadership of Murong Huayun, the army crossed Jishi Mountain, crossed Xingsu River, crossed Nuoyi River, and went straight to Zhonglong City.
Zhonglong City is the first small city after Duomiguan, which is also the last city in the southwestern area of Tuyuhun.
This is the main road connecting Tubo and Tuyuhun. During the peacetime between the two countries, there was an endless stream of businessmen and bustle.
Now that the war broke out, the two countries have cut off the commercial roads, and the city of Zhonglong has gradually become desolate.
About a hundred miles past Zhonglong City is Domi Pass, twenty miles away from Domi Pass is the Yak River, and beyond the Yak River is the border of Tubo.
……
Tibet……
Love some cities...
Tubo Zanpu Songtsen Gampo ran away in the hall.
There is a dead body lying in the hall. This person is the head of the Luotu Department and one of the planners who planned for the Yinyue Army to cross the border to intercept Li Chengqian.
Not a single piece of the Yinyue Army was killed by Li Chengqian, and when the news of the annihilation of the entire army reached Songtsan Gampo's ears, he immediately summoned the head of the Luotu Division to Luoxie City, and beheaded him in the court hall with his own hands. he.
The military generals and civil servants in the hall looked at the angry Songtsan Gampo without daring to take a breath.
Since Li Chengqian entered Tuyuhun, apart from bad news, even worse news came to Luoxi City.
The [-]-strong army of the Yinyue Army was wiped out, Murong Chuan was killed, Murong Bai succeeded the Great Khan, and Tuyuhun was incorporated into the Tang Dynasty.
The news that came one after another made Songtsen Gampo restless.
He knew that Datang, the sleeping dragon, had set his eyes on Tubo.
moment……
Several guards ran in and carried out Siben's body from Luotubu.
"You guys are talking. You are usually competitive, and you are afraid that the world will not be chaotic. Why are you dumb at this time!"
Songtsan Gambo glanced at the people in the hall and said angrily.
It was a certainty that Li Chengqian wanted to attack Tubo. He reckoned that when the weather got warmer, Li Chengqian would bring the Tuyuhun army to kill him.
"Master Zanpu, you don't need to be too pessimistic about this matter."
"Although Li Chengqian seized the military and political power of Tuyuhun, the Tang army still couldn't adapt to the plateau climate. If he wanted to attack Tubo, he could only rely on the [-] troops of Tuyuhun."
Songtsan Gambo's first advisor, Gacharuru, stood up and said.
Seeing him stepping forward to offer advice, Songtsan Gampo's fluttering heart instantly calmed down a lot.
He stopped where he was, looked at Gacharuru and said, "Continue talking."
Gacharuru replied softly: "Yes, Lord Zanpu."
"According to the villain, comparing Tuyuhun and Li Chengqian, our army has three victories."
Songtsan Gampo's eyes were bright and joyful, "Which three wins?"
Jiacharuru laughed and said: "Although the white-robed army under Li Chengqian's command is not afraid of altitude sickness, they only have 11 soldiers including Tuyuhun soldiers. Besides, they can't bring all of these 11 troops to attack us. , but my Tubo has an army of 31, more than three times the strength."
"This one wins."
"Li Chengqian invaded with troops, crossed the border to attack, the supply of food and grass was difficult, and the logistical support was insufficient, while our army was fighting in the local area, with sufficient food and grass supply and complete logistical support."
"This two wins."
"Although Li Chengqian is brave, he is commanding the Tuyuhun army. It is difficult to exert a strong combat power. The morale of the army must be low. But my Tuyuhun army will resist foreign humiliation, unite as one, and have high morale."
"Three wins."
"Regardless of the number of soldiers, or the timing, location, or harmony of people, Li Chengqian is at a disadvantage. From this point of view, we have nothing to fear."
"As long as we have a proper layout and guard around the ring, what can Li Chengqian do to me?"
After Songtsan Gampo heard these words, the haze was swept away, which is exactly what Gacharuru said.
From this point of view, he really doesn't need to underestimate himself and be too afraid.
No matter how strong Li Chengqian was, he was only leading the remnants and weak generals like Tuyuhun.
Songtsan Gampo excitedly said: "The military division is right, and what he said is right. I wonder if you have a specific plan."
Gacharuru bowed slightly, "The villain is not talented, and there are indeed a few good strategies."
Songtsan Gampo couldn't wait to say: "Military division tell me quickly."
"First of all, our army should take the lead in attacking Tuyuhun and capture Duomi Pass. As long as Duomi Pass is captured, our army can have an army of [-] people, stop Tuyuhun's [-] troops, and keep the enemy out of the country."
"Secondly, Lord Zanpu can send an army across the Nuoyi River to attack Misang City, the southern gateway of Tuyuhun, forcing Tuyuhun to send troops back to help divide the Tuyuhun army, and then send an army to lie in ambush on Mt. Reinforce Tuyuhun and reduce the strength of his army."
"Two attacks, one defense, and one sniper attack. If the plan is right, our army will not only be able to stop Tuyuhun's attack, but also have a chance to defeat Tuyuhun's army and capture Li Chengqian alive."
"As long as Li Chengqian is captured, we will have the capital to negotiate with Li Shimin."
"Take a step back, even if we don't take the initiative to attack, Li Chengqian will lose patience if he can't make up his mind for a long time, and leave here."
"No matter what the outcome is, it is not a bad thing for us in Tibet."
Gacharuru speaks with certainty and confidence.
Songtsen Gampo sat on the throne, secretly thinking about the possibility of the plan.
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and the more he thought about it, the happier he became. What Gacharuru said was extremely feasible.
Combat on highlands is not that simple. How could Li Chengqian have such rich experience in combat on highlands.
As long as they have enough patience, while refusing to defend, while harassing, Li Chengqian really has nothing to do with them.
If he catches the opening, breaks through Duomi Pass, breaks through Tuyuhun, and captures Li Chengqian alive.
Chapter 452 Smuggling
Hahaha..." Songtsan Gampo laughed heartily.
After Gacharuru said this, the bad thing turned into a good thing.
If they are commanded properly, they can also use Misang City as a breakthrough point to drive straight in and invade the Tuyuhun area.
Even if you can't capture it, you can enter Tuyuhun and plunder it.
At that time, Li Chengqian led the Tuyuhun army without even being able to enter Tuyuhun, so they lost troops and lost their generals, and were plundered wantonly by Tubo. Internal conflicts would definitely erupt and spread rapidly to Tuyuhun.
Maybe Tuyuhun will fall apart because of this.
The more Songtsan Gampo thought about it, the more excited he became, and then he couldn't help but lament the beauty of the plateau area, which is their natural advantage.
The civil servants and military generals in the hall looked at Songtsan Gampo who had turned his anger into joy, and heaved a sigh of relief. If not, there may not be a few people who would be unlucky and blood splashed on the court.
Subsequently, Songtsan Gampo began to arrange the battle plan.
"Waylon."
"The little guy is here."
"Ben Zanpu ordered you to lead the territory's shadow guards into Tuyuhun to investigate the movements and intelligence of the various troops in Tuyuhun. There must be no mistakes."
"The villain takes orders."
"Enlamo."
"The little guy is here."
"Ben Zanpu ordered you to lead an army of 15, and you must conquer the Domi pass at all costs within seven days."
"The villain takes orders."
"Garnalun."
