    "Words" "Words" "All are words" Those who gathered around to look could see clearly that the fifty copper coins were all with the letters facing up. In an instant, everyone was breathing heavily, and none of them dared to make a sound, as if they just wanted to  If you breathe harder, you will alarm the gods in the dark.  Ye Chang was overjoyed when he saw that the fifty coins were indeed full of characters. He immediately said: "Sure enough, the gods bless me, and Prime Minister Zhuge bless me. I will win this time. Ge Luofeng is just another Meng Huo." "Long live, long live  "When people in the Tang Dynasty were excited, they would shout long live. As long as they are not in front of the emperor, cheering like this is nothing.  After a brief period of astonishment, I don't know who took the lead in shouting, and then the three armies cheered in unison. The dark clouds that had been accumulating in everyone's hearts disappeared in the cheers.  Li Bai and Cai Ming looked at each other, and what they saw in each other's eyes was horror.  Wang Tianyun, on the other hand, looked gloomy and defeated. His two legs were fighting, and he wanted to kneel down immediately.  Ye Chang didn't look too proud, as if this god's protection was a matter of course. He said calmly: "The gift from the gods cannot be left in the open for a long time. Someone will nail the fifty pieces of money with nails, and then use green  Cover it with gauze and cover it with stone slabs. When I return from victory, I will come and get it." Immediately, his soldiers came up and nailed the copper coins one by one with big iron nails, then covered them with green gauze, and then dragged a few pieces from nowhere.  The stone slab suppressed the green gauze again.  "Tsk, tsk, no wonder the two of us have been in the army for so many years, and we are still just small soldiers. Now I finally understand." The manager over there tutted in surprise and whispered to Miao Zhongliang.  "Why?" "The two of us are obviously blind. Ambassador Ye is protected by the gods, and Prime Minister Zhuge is giving guidance, but we have repeatedly scolded him behind his back. If he hadn't been a great person who doesn't remember the mistakes of small people, I'm afraid we would have been killed long ago.  If the gods took their lives, how could they survive to this day and how could we, who are blind and ignorant, be promoted to officials? " "It makes sense, it makes sense." The two of them muttered what most of the tens of thousands of soldiers present were saying.  At first, they were dissatisfied with Ye Chang's eagerness to march, but now they all feel that Ye Chang's request is natural.  It's not that there is no smart one among the tens of thousands of people in the army, but because most of these soldiers are from Shu. At this time, the soldiers in Shu were superstitious and believed deeply in ghosts and gods.  Even Li Bai, who has seen a lot, can't even close his jaw at this time.  Only Shanzhi looked at the copper coins hidden by the stone slabs and curled his lips: Ye Shiyi was pretending to be gods and ghosts again. When he was practicing martial arts, he started by pretending to be gods and ghosts. Now he still has to rely on pretending to be gods and ghosts to win people's hearts.  .  Since the divination was auspicious, Ye Chang no longer hesitated and ordered the camp to be broken up, leaving more than ten soldiers to guard the stone tablet.  This time, no one in the army pushed the three and picked the four. On the contrary, they were all very excited.  After the army had marched for more than ten miles, Li Bai came to his senses, pulled Ye Chang and asked: "How did you do it?" "What's the matter?"  " "How to make fifty copper coins face up" "This is a magical method of the immortal family, protected by the gods, it cannot be said.  "Ye Chang pretended to be authentic. "The more he acted like this, the more anxious Li Bai became, scratching his ears and cheeks, and he didn't calm down for a long time. After another two days' march, the army arrived at Quyue, which is Tongqi County in the Tang Dynasty. This place was originally inhabited by Baiman, but it was just a skin.  Luo Ge destroyed the white barbarians and plundered all their noble leaders to the west of Erhai Lake. When Ye Chang's army arrived, they saw the fields covered with trees and dense forests, and felt a little desolate in their hearts. At this moment, the scouts from the front came to report.  Geluofeng raised a large army from Nanzhao, which was said to be one hundred thousand, and had arrived in Yining. His vanguard was heading to Kunchuan. After hearing the news, the generals of the Tang army did not take it to heart. They were still immersed in the "miracle" of the gods' protection.  , so everyone clamored to be the vanguard and fight against the Wuman. Wang Tianyun was the most fierce among them. "Please join the army with the last general. The last general is willing to issue a military order. This battle will be won. If we fail, we will come to see you."  It is very clear that each of the Liuzhao tribes only has 10,000 to tens of thousands of people. Even with the expansion and annexation of Baiman in recent years, Nanzhao may not have a total of 100,000 troops. Where can we gather 100,000 troops to meet them?  Therefore, Nanzhao's most likely military strength is between 20,000 and 30,000, and its vanguard strength is only a few thousand. With a similar number of people, the Tang sergeants are not afraid of any army of this era. Of course, the premise is that there are sufficient supplies and  In good health. The biggest reason why Xianyu Zhongtong failed in his last expedition to the south was due to the disease in the army, and most of the casualties were caused by this. Wang Tianyun was eager to seek help, and Ye Chang also understood his thoughts.  He was afraid of offending Ye Chang, so he tried to express himself and wanted to take credit. "Wang Yuhou wants to go to war, which is exactly what I want, but I hope Wang Yuhou does this.  Ye Chang pondered for a while: "This battle can only be defeated, not won." "What?"  Wang Tianyun became anxious when he heard this: "I'm not allowed to win but I'm allowed to lose, so I won't go."  "If you lose this battle, you will be credited with the first victory." Ye Chang said.  Wang Tianyun just feels confused. How can he still remember the first victory in a defeat? How can such a beautiful thing be possible?  According to what Ye Chang said, he led two thousand people who were good at running away as the vanguard and marched towards Kunchuan.  After all, this is a land of barbarians. Even if they belong to the white barbarians, there are many people who are in harmony with Nanzhao.  Therefore, he led his troops to follow the Ancient Tea Horse Road, where there were barbarians taking the path and climbing over the mountains.  When he was still more than twenty miles away from Kunchuan, he looked around and saw deep forests, narrow roads, long grass and slippery roads, with half mountains and half valleys. He couldn't help but feel a shiver in his heart: what a perfect place for an attack. He looked back at his  The troops couldn't help but feel a little frustrated.  As Ye Chang said, the people he led were the best runners selected from the 30,000 troops.  Generally speaking, being good at escaping means being timid and slippery, and that's what all these people are like.  What makes Wang Tianyun even more incredible is that in addition to sending some undistinguished soldiers to him, he also asked him to escort more than 40 vehicles and baggage.  This car is a chicken bus. It is a bit difficult to walk on the road full of plank roads and steps. In addition, the soldiers are carrying baskets and packages. This does not look like a formal army, but more like a group of fleeing famine.  "Be careful, don't get caught in an ambush," he shouted.  Miao Zhongliang and Guan Gao were among the three thousand people. They shrunk and panted and complained to each other. They all felt that it was known that they had spoken ill of Ye Chang behind his back, and that was why they ended up in this hard job.  Hearing Wang Tianyun¡¯s order from the school guard in front of him, Miao Zhongliang couldn¡¯t help but start to complain.  He couldn¡¯t stop talking as soon as he opened his mouth. Halfway down the long and narrow cliff path, he still kept chattering.  At this moment, I heard the sound of clappers in front of me, and arrows rained down on my head.  "Ah yo" Seeing this scene, Miao Zhongliang threw away the package on his body, turned around and left.  The officer was slower to react and was hit by him. He staggered and almost fell down the cliff next to the five-foot road.  Looking at the other sergeants, they all threw off their helmets and armor and fled one after another.  There is no need to pretend, Wang Tianyun's department is in a very embarrassed state. The barbarians are familiar with the geography. This encounter is a surprise attack. The terrain is narrow, and even the troops cannot be deployed. Being caught off guard, everyone's first thought is to retreat.  Although Wang Tianyun was mentally prepared, he was also blinded. After a few breaths, he came back to his senses: "Run, run quickly. I don't want anything, run quickly." He took the lead and fled, only to see those chickens and buses and the soldiers carrying them.  Baskets were thrown all over the floor, and countless coins, cloth, and silk were thrown out.  In order to prevent these things from blocking the way of escape, they threw everything down the valley, and suddenly half of the valley was covered with these belongings.  On the top of the mountain, Yang Mouli laughed when he saw this scene.  "Your Majesty wants me to be careful. In my opinion, this baby general of the Tang Dynasty is nothing more than that. His soldiers have no fighting spirit and his generals have no courage. How dare he come to conquer me?" He is Baiman, who was ordered to be the vanguard of the Nanzhao army.  After receiving the news this time, he personally led his troops to meet him, preparing to ambush the Tang army's forward.  As soon as the two sides engaged in battle, the Tang army performed so badly that he suddenly became emboldened.  At this moment, a man from behind ran over panting: "General, the main force of the Tang Army has moved." "Oh?" But it was the main force of the Tang Army. About an hour after the vanguard troops set off, they also started to move.  Hearing the news, Yang Mouli sneered: When they arrive, they will wait to collect the bodies of the Tang army here. "Chasing Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing? Hurry up and hunt down the Tang people." He was about to  He gave the order to chase and kill, but what he saw before him made him furious and almost roared.  The barbarian soldiers under his command were not paying attention to the Tang army at all. Almost all of them were staring at the treasures in the valley.  Although Yunnan has abundant products, the production level of the barbarians is low, and the aristocratic leaders are tyrannical. Therefore, ordinary barbarians are very poor. Some people even see so much property for the first time in their lives. How can they not be moved? "What is this?"  ? "Someone couldn't help shouting when they saw scattered shiny beads on the five-foot path.  "Pearls, could they be the rumored luminous pearls?" "I don't know, I've never seen them before they must be good things." In fact, they are just a handful of glass beads, but now, although the price of glass beads has dropped, some have been introduced to Yunnan.  , but for these ordinary barbarian soldiers, it was a rare commodity that was unheard of and unseen.  Although they don¡¯t know what it is, as long as they see its shiny and translucent appearance, everyone feels that it must be worth a lot.  With quick eyes and quick hands, he picked up the glass bead and hid it in his pocket.  As long as one person can't control himself and goes to pick up these belongings, the others will not be left behind and step forward one after another.  Moreover, most of the barbarian soldiers are recruited temporarily, and they may not even know their own generals. There is no military discipline. First they are glass beads, then cloth and copper coins, and then they grab whatever they see.  Grab something? When his pockets were full, he threw away his weapons and freed his hands to grab his belongings.  Those who didn't grab anything had to find ways to grab some from their companions.  Therefore, although Yang Mouli yelled and cursed at the top, the barbarian soldiers below ignored him and fought for the property on the road.  After picking up the things on the road, everyone's attention turned to the things in the valley. Compared with the continuous pieces of cloth and silk in the valley, there were too few on the road.  So everyone left the Five Feet Road again and tried to search for property in the valley. In just a moment, the Five Feet Road became empty again.  Seeing this situation, Yang Mouli knew something was wrong. He was about to order his own soldiers to enforce military law. When he looked back, he found that his own soldiers were also missing.  "This is a treacherous plan of the Tang people, this is a treacherous plan of the Tang people," he suddenly understood in his heart and shouted.  "Haha, I picked up another one" he shouted on the mountain, but the soldiers below just pretended not to hear it. Just now, the Tang army had been defeated. Even these valuable treasures were thrown away. How could there be any treacherous plots that everyone could hear?  All that was heard were the sounds of joy from the companions who were picking up the glass beads scattered in the gaps between rocks and at the roots of trees.  Cold sweat suddenly broke out on Yang Mouli's forehead. He rushed towards the mountain road, but before he reached the mountain road, he heard a constant "buzzing" sound. "Oops" This thought came to his mind, and he felt his chest tremble.  The body was taken a few steps back.  He reluctantly raised his head and saw that the mountains and plains were filled with Tang troops.  He just cursed "Cunning" before his body fell down and rolled down the hillside. Before he could reach the bottom of the hill, he was already dead.  "Kill, brothers, kill" Wang Tianyun was proud and high-spirited. He shouted while waving the knife in his hand.  Most of the Tang troops around him were holding crossbows, shooting out crossbow arrows, mowing down the scattered barbarians like mowing grass.  Taking advantage of the barbarians' opportunity to seize property, he made a comeback, and now it was the Tang army that seized advantageous positions such as hillsides and ridges.  Most of the barbarians went to valleys with limited mobility in order to grab property, and even hung up their own bows. Facing the rain of crossbows from the Tang army, they had no power to fight back.  "Grandma, you just shot Grandpa me" "There is a bald monk shoot you in the face, you can change your name to Yan She" "You really want money, damn, you are still holding on to something after death"  "Miao Zhongliang usually swore wildly while firing crossbow bolts one after another. He was very courageous in doing such unilateral massacres that did not require face-to-face fighting.  The manager next to him followed him, and he was a stuffy gourd who helped him make up for his troubles from time to time.  When they fired their crossbows, they looked into the valley and saw corpses strewn all over the ground and blood forming a stream.  "Big victory" "Big victory" Everyone woke up from the tense state just now and cheered immediately.  This was indeed a heart-wrenching victory. Our casualties were negligible. Most of them had twisted feet and broken arms due to the difficulty of walking on the mountain road. However, the enemy had nearly two thousand people, at least half of whom died. The rest either knelt down to beg for mercy or fled into the forest.  .  "Ambassador Ye really has divine help." Guan Gao heard everyone cheering and murmured in a low voice: "It's so easy to win." "That's natural, don't you know? I heard that Ambassador Ye is in Nanning  When the state was resting, I dreamed of Prime Minister Zhuge at night, and received three tips from Prime Minister Zhuge. Today is just the first tip in the tip, and he has two more tips that he has not yet used." Miao Zhongliang said in a low voice.  "Before, you said that he would wet his pants when he got into battle. Bah, bah, you are such a nonsense person. I have to stay away from you in the future."  Let me just say, Ambassador Ye is extraordinary
