The King of Lhasa, King Ali and King Yaze gathered in the Potala Palace. If King Yalongjua was added, all the top people who commanded Tubo would have expired. Zanpu would have long since ceased to exist. When the Tubo power split, Zanpu would Disappeared. After many years of conquest and fighting, the four kings ruled Tubo and had their own territories. At first, they all competed to call themselves Zanpu. Later, I don¡¯t know why, they dropped the title of Zanpu at the same time. Probably I feel that I am not qualified enough to call myself Zamp. , When the Tang army first entered Tubo, they encountered contempt and ridicule. Tubo¡¯s special terrain was the best protection, including the Tang soldiers stationed in the Four Towns of Anxi and the Anxi Protectorate. Even in peacetime, there were many casualties. It was disastrous because they were not adapted to the climate and environment of Tubo. The Tang army that invaded Tubo had not yet appeared, so all this did not attract the attention of the upper class of Tubo. After the Tang army captured Yucheng City and killed 3,000 Tubo soldiers and the generals stationed in Yucheng City, the King of Lhasa realized that something was wrong. However, at that time, he felt that there was a reason for the matter, maybe because of Yucheng City. The defenders underestimated the enemy too much, which led to such a situation. After that, the Tang army was overwhelming and occupied places such as Bowo, Medog and Luowo. After directly threatening Luoche, the King of Lhasa began to panic. Luoche and the Potala Palace are symbols of Tubo's power. It is precisely because of occupying Luoche that the King of Lhasa has always been the most powerful party recognized by Tubo. It is said that the King of Lhasa received a fatal blow. King Ali and King Yaze Wang Heyalongjueah would feel happy that the Tang army helped them get rid of a strong enemy. However, the development of things made all the four kings feel that something was wrong. In the place occupied by the Tang Dynasty, the aristocratic power suffered a devastating blow. The slaves were liberated and had the power of civilians. This was something the four kings could not tolerate. They also found some clues from it. The Tang army wanted to wipe out all the forces of Tubo and make Tubo the land of the Tang Dynasty. After realizing this, King Ali, King Yaze and King Yalongjua no longer stood idly by and began to reinforce the King of Lhasa. They still knew the importance of internal conflicts and external conflicts. It is a pity that at this time, King Yalongjue'a suffered a heavy blow. The Tang army that entered Longyou Road on the other side gave King Yalongjue'a a devastating blow. Let Yalong feel that King A is unable to reinforce Luo Xie. At the beginning of the reinforcements, King Lhasa, King Ali and King Yaze were all optimistic. Although King Yalongjua suffered a heavy blow, it was in Longyou Road after all. Tubo was different. As long as they united, they would They will definitely be able to defeat the Tang army that penetrated deep into Tubo territory. Their optimism did not last long. The army rescued by King Ali and King Yaze encountered an ambush by the Tang army in Dazi. The losses were heavy, and if it had not been for the familiarity of the terrain, the entire army might have been wiped out. This battle completely shocked Tubo. King Ali and King Yaze decided to personally lead the army to help Luoche. They faced the most critical situation, either to perish together with Tubo or to defeat the Tang army. It was at this time that the Tang army's attack suddenly weakened. The army led by King Ali and King Yaze. Arriving at Luoxe smoothly, we were warmly received by the King of Lhasa. As long as the interests are consistent, the men of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. They are very easy to get along with. They are united in a group and are preparing to attack the Tang army in the same area. Several consecutive battles made them aware of the bravery of the Tang army, but the logic of the Tang army's attack was different. This is the holy land of Tubo, a place protected by the gods. The Tang army must attack here. Although they will encounter divine punishment, the Tubo soldiers will also be favored by God and blessed by the gods, and they will definitely be able to defeat the Tang army. Some magicians were invited to Luoshou and began to pray for Tubo. The place is not big. Although it is the holy land of Tubo, except for the Potala Palace, the rest of the places are basically tents. Houses are rare. Only the real nobles of Tubo are qualified to stay in Potala. Building a house near the Potala Palace requires the approval of Zanpu, and later the King of Lhasa. Otherwise, no matter what your status is, building a house near the Potala Palace is blasphemy to the gods and will result in punishment. of. It is basically impossible to build strong fortifications in such a place. Dazi is only sixty miles away from Luoxu, and it has been occupied by the iron-blooded army. Gao Chibang, Zhu Wen, Qin Erhei and others gathered in the temporary Chinese military tent. The expedition in Tubo has been going on for more than four months. They were surprised by Tubo's backwardness. People here rarely bathed and their bodies exuded an unpleasant smell. Even the nobles were the same. Most of the people here were An illiterate slave. Speaking words that the Iron-Blooded Army officers could not understand, even though they were on the looseWhen they were young, the soldiers once learned simple Tubo language, but when they really entered Tubo, they realized that the words they learned were far from enough. The fighting power of the Tubo army is not strong, but the soldiers are not afraid of death. Even if they fail, they will charge forward desperately. Very few people will choose to escape. This saves the soldiers of the Iron Blood Army the trouble. After taking the initiative, they cut Fighting like melons and vegetables, without overly considering tactics such as outflanking and outflanking, can end the battle in a short time. The losses of the soldiers of the Iron-Blooded Army were not small, mainly due to the environment and climate. After four months of fighting, the 40,000-strong army lost more than 4,000 people. This is a rare situation. These fallen soldiers were Buried in Tubo, forever integrated into this land. The strategic encirclement of Logos has been fully completed. Almost all the Tubo army was concentrated in Luoche. According to long-term investigation, there were about 30,000 Tibetan sergeants gathered in Luoche. In terms of numbers, the number of the Iron-Blooded Army and the Tubo Army were about the same. In terms of combat effectiveness, the Iron Blood Army has an absolute advantage. Four months have passed, and Gao Chibang and others have a deep understanding of why the Daxingtai government proposed inexplicable training subjects. Now it seems that these trainings have saved the lives of countless soldiers. The food and grass for the Iron-Blooded Army were abundant, especially the cooked vegetables. Kan Zeyu, the military governor of Xichuan, worked hard to transport a large amount of vegetables and a large amount of water. However, in this ghost place, the water could not be boiled and the rice could not be boiled. It was not cooked properly, so the army mainly ate pasta, beef and vegetables, in addition to the indispensable butter tea. When we first entered Tubo and drank butter tea, many soldiers almost felt sick. The butter tea here is completely different from the butter tea in Songzhou. There is a lot of cow hair and wool in the butter tea, and there are a lot of cow hair and wool in the mouth. It is as uncomfortable as it is, and the smell of butter tea is too strong for people to tolerate. It was not until some soldiers in the army mastered the method of making butter tea and brewed butter tea by themselves that the situation changed a lot. After overcoming a large number of difficulties, the soldiers of the Iron Blood Army were able to gain a foothold on the plateau. July is the hot summer season. It should be unbearably hot in the mainland, but Tubo does not feel it at all. At night, there will even be cold air currents, so keeping out the cold has become a necessary skill for soldiers. "General Zhu and General Qin have completed the siege of Luoxue. Based on my opinion, we launched a general offensive in early August. The task of this general offensive is to completely wipe out the Tibetan army. , Luowo, Qusong and other places, the influence of the Tubo nobles has been basically wiped out. The next step is to win Luocheng. I am afraid that the influence of the Tubo nobles will need to be wiped out on a larger scale. Only in this way can it be possible to set up prefectures and counties here. This ghost place is really strange. It is really deserted for thousands of miles. You can't see anyone even after walking for a long distance." "My subordinates agreed to launch a general attack in early August. This general attack must capture the King of Lhasa alive. , King Ali and King Yaze, so that we can completely defeat the power of the Tubo nobles." After Zhu Wen answered, Qin Erhei did not speak immediately. He remembered clearly that Li Rupei's arrangement was for him to conquer Tubo after the iron-blooded army. , stationed in Tubo for three years, it seems now that Li Rupei's hug had profound meaning. Gao Chibang looked at Qin Erhei and knew what Qin Erhei was thinking. Anyone stationed in Tubo would feel his scalp numb. The farther away from such a place, the better. It is a pity that it will be included in the territory of the Tang Dynasty. Tubo must be guarded by a large army, and at least the people here need to be naturalized. It will probably take a long time to popularize the culture of the Tang Dynasty here. "Since you all agree, the attack will be scheduled for the fifth day of August. The Tubo army believes in the gods and believes that the Iron-blooded Army will attack logically and will be attacked by the gods. It will definitely not succeed, so let them rely on the gods, and the Iron-blooded Army will rely on The most important thing is the bravery of the soldiers. There are no tactics at all in this battle. Crossbows and bows will become the main offensive weapons. Let the Tubo soldiers taste the power of crossbows and bows again to see if the gods can help. They avoided the crossbows and arrows" After the arrangements were completed, Zhu Wen stood up and left the Zhongjun tent, leaving Gao Chibang and Qin Erhei behind. Gao Chibang looked at Qin Erhei for a while before speaking. "General Qin, the prince must have deep intentions in arranging for you to be stationed in Tubo first. I believe that after the army captures Tubo, Daxingtai Mansion will have relevant documents. I don't know how to station here. Only the prince knows. As long as If you follow the prince's request, there will be no problem." Qin Erhei nodded. ¡°Commander, my subordinates are not afraid of being stationed in Tubo. What I¡¯m worried about is that the place is vast and sparsely populated, making it really difficult to station there. If we cannot complete the mission of the King,The mission assigned by the prince has failed, and the subordinate has failed the prince's trust. " "Don't worry, the prince will definitely find a way.
