Chapter 377 The road is completely blocked

In fact, this is an understandable thing. I have never heard of any country where the emperor is really on the front line when he is in charge of the army. If something happens, wouldn't the emperor's life be lost? It is also possible to boost morale. If the emperor is injured, then there is no need to fight this battle at all and just take his men back. The whole army looks like it is about to be defeated.

Songtsen Gampo did not identify himself, so the big tent with the golden roof was closed. This was also the order given by Songtsen Gampo. There was a slightly smaller one next to it, which was where Li Xiang lived.

The minister responsible for explaining to Li Xiang said a few words casually. In short, he said that the recent days have been a bit uneven. He hoped that Li Xiang would take a rest here first. When the time is right, he can take Li Xiang to the Holy City. This When the minister was leaving, several very beautiful maids came in at the door. This was Lu Dongzan's arrangement.

He thought that Li Xiang must be a very lecherous person when he competed with him for his eldest grandson Pingting. How could he lock Li Xiang in a tent and not get out? That was to provide him with enough women, as long as there were women around Li Xiang. If there are enough women, then this guy will never be willing to go out.

Li Xiang smiled and didn't say anything, and just let these women stay in the tent. If they retreated, the lives of these women in Tubo country would not be saved, and people outside would think that If they can't please Li Xiang, then it's your fault, women. Just kill them and feed them to the dogs.

Li Xiang doesn't have much to do here, he just needs time. As long as Lu Dongzan's information comes back, Lu Dongzan will come over to discuss with Li Xiang. Li Xiang has great psychological ambitions, but he doesn't have the time. Wait for him at the border.

If we go to the border, the selling price may be higher, but it will waste a lot of time. Li Xiang has been traveling back and forth from Chang'an to the border for more than a year, and he doesn't want to continue like this.

The killing cry that day was not very loud. Li Xiang also asked people to go to the battlefield to have a look. In fact, it was not a big deal. It was just a small-scale firefight between the two sides. The total number of people was only a few thousand. The Tubo army was too nervous.

Of course, it is normal for people to be nervous. Songtsen Gampo is the emperor of Tubo, and Li Xiang is the grandson of the Tang Dynasty. No matter which one of these two people has a problem, it is their irreparable fault, so this The two men moved to the back of the military camp to keep them away from the battlefield. This was something everyone agreed with.

Ludong praised the big account.

"Prime Minister, the chieftain alliance has retreated. The enemy lost more than 600 people in this battle, and we lost more than 700 people. Due to the enemy's sneak attack, twelve of our tents were burned."

Such a small-scale battle was not qualified to be reported to Ludongzan, but because of Songtsen Gampo and Li Xiang, Ludongzan had to master everything on the battlefield, so such a small-scale battle was allowed to be reported. Opportunity.

"Ask your subordinates to send more patrols. It is different from the past. Tell them not to slack off. They must send out multiple patrols every day, including at night. According to the areas I have divided, each general is responsible for In an area, if there is a problem in someone's area, I will kill his entire family."

After the messenger heard what Lu Dongzan said, he quickly went down with his people. This person was not easy to talk to. At this time, the whole army felt nervous. Even the always gentle prime minister said this. , we should all be more careful from now on, and don’t get killed in a daze.

Lu Dongzan went out to look at the sky that was about to get dark. He calculated the days and there should be news tonight. He sent a total of six groups of people. These people were all out to look for food, and they all went there with sincerity. Lu Dongzan Dongzan has raised the price a lot. If these people agree, then they can make a lot of money, and Lu Dongzan can also give Tubo a glimmer of hope.

Just when Lu Dongzan was thinking about this, a white pigeon suddenly appeared in the sky. This was the homing pigeon they raised. It would take several months to get here from the hinterland of the Tang Dynasty, even on horseback. , Lu Dongzan simply didn’t have that time, so he had to rely on this thing.

"There is no letter to report to the Prime Minister."

After hearing this, Lu Dongzan waved his hand to let him go down. He felt really uncomfortable in his heart. Although this was only one of the choices, there was no news back, which meant that the other party did not agree, because this matter It was too confidential, so Lu Dongzan had already given instructions to his people. If the other party didn't agree, just send back a blank piece of paper.

This is a trick. According to Lu Dongzan's previous thoughts, he has already raised the price to eight cents per catty, so these people should be willing. If more people agree by then, he can also choose one. Cheaper, it seems that he was a bit too optimistic at the time. Now Lu Dongzan no longer wants to choose. As long as someone is willing, he can accept even if the price is slightly higher.

In the middle of the night, another pigeon flew back, but there was still nothing on it. This meant that one third of the pigeons had been knocked down, and there were still four pigeons left. I just didn’t know what the situation was. Throughout the night, Lu Dongzan They didn't even fall asleep. Instead, Li Xiang took people out hunting early in the morning, seeming to be very satisfied with this kind of life.

"I wish you were killed by a wild beast."

Looking at Li Xiang's back, Lu Dongzan cursed fiercely and said, of course he had to let his men keep an eye on Li Xiang. There were wild beasts everywhere on the Tubo Plateau. If something happened to Li Xiang, he would still be there. They have Tubo to take responsibility.

Lu Dongzan swore in front of Songtsen Gampo that someone would definitely take over their deal. After all, the profit they offered was not low. However, after receiving two pieces of blank paper in succession, Lu Dongzan was filled with confidence. I have been shocked. If the rest is still like this, do I really want to ask Li Xiang?

Lu Dongzan suddenly thought of what Li Xiang said that day. The price offered at that time was twenty-five cents, but if he asked for it on Li Xiang's head, it might become forty cents. He thought Lu Dongzan had an impulse here. Should he go over and settle the matter with Li Xiang now? After all, this can save a lot of money!
