Coming out of the prison dungeon, Pu Bajia found that the person who escorted him had become a soldier of the Tang Dynasty, the day before yesterday it still belonged to the capital of Tubo, and now the streets are patrolled by the army of the Tang Dynasty, and the banner of the Tang Dynasty is hung high at the head of the city, which is the Potala Palace on the Red Mountain in the distance, which is also planted with the order flag of the Tang Dynasty.
Oh my God, what's going on, isn't there 8,000 elite Zhenshan battalions guarding the city, and they have built a cement city wall that is said to be impenetrable even if a million troops can't break it, and there is enough grain and grass in the city, how did it change hands overnight, and what did the people of the Zhenshan battalion do? What about Zampu, is Zampu Chide Zuzan okay?
Pu Bajia felt that the past two days had suffered more than the previous half of his life combined, and he pinched the root of his thigh several times to confirm that he was not dreaming.
Strange to strange, Pu Bajia didn't have much sadness in his heart, and when he led someone to arrest him, he threatened that he would not let Pu Bajia come out, and that Pu Bajia's whole family would be unhappy, because Pu Bajia had said bad things about him in front of Zampu, and he thought that he couldn't get out of the dungeon alive.
Pu Bajia never dreamed that he would go out in this way.
For the Tang army that occupied Luoqi City, Pu Bajia did not have much rejection in his heart, because his heart was too disappointed in Tubo.
Tubo is the Tubo of Zampu Chide Zuzan, it is the Tubo of the Four Shang Clan, except for these high-ranking monks and monks, no one else is important, Tubo and Datang are deadlocked, seeing that the situation is unfavorable to Tubo, Pu Bajia, many times to Chide Zanzu Tiyi to reconcile with the Tang Dynasty as soon as possible, cancel the misunderstanding, and also suggest that the two countries should market each other, communicate with each other, but I didn't expect this discussion to offend a lot of magnates, including Woershu.
Pu Bajia knows why Woershu hates himself so much, although Tubo said that he fell out with the Tang Dynasty, but many goods that cannot be produced by themselves still need to be purchased from the Tang Dynasty and cannot be traded in the mutual market, but the huge demand derives a huge black market, and the aristocratic officials represented by the great minister Xi Luo Gonglu buy low and sell high in the black market, making a windfall, they are fat, but the people of Tubo are miserable, and they have the heart to say a word for the people, but they did not expect to provoke the crazy suppression and revenge of those big nobles.
Such a country is not worth guarding by itself.
Pu Bajia thought as he followed the team forward, and when he came back to his senses, he was surprised to find that Tang Jun had escorted him to the square in front of the Potala Palace.
Seeing that there were heavily armed Tang soldiers all around, and in addition to many Tibetan people, they were three layers outside and three layers inside, as if they were waiting for something, Pu Bajia's heart tightened: What is the Tang army going to do, is this going to publicly execute himself? Sacrifice the flag with the blood of the Tibetans?
At this time, there were more and more people in the square, there were ordinary people standing on the sidelines with curious faces, and there were also nobles and officials who were escorted over by the Tang army, and a high platform was set up on the west side of the square, and no one knew what the Tang army was going to do.
I don't know how long later, someone took out a gong and struck it three times in a row, shouting: "Quiet, quiet, don't speak." ”
"Don't speak."
"Calm down, can't you hear me?"
The soldiers in charge of maintaining order stopped the people who were talking, and soon the scene fell silent.
Guo Ziyi climbed the temporary high platform, looked around, and after seeing that there was no more sound, he said loudly: "All the people of Tubo, let me introduce myself here, a certain name is Guo Ziyi, a Tang guerrilla general and commander of the Chinese army of the Western Army. ”
When speaking, Cui Xiyi was in charge of interpreting on the side, the voices of the two were very loud, and the scene was very quiet, so that everyone present could hear it clearly.
Lan Duo below said with some confusion: "General Guo doesn't know how to speak, why don't you just let General Cui speak, wouldn't that save trouble?" ”
Zheng Peng smiled and said nothing, and the cardinal, who has recently had a rapid relationship with Landuo, rarely opened his mouth to explain: "There are rules in the army, and they can't be crossed at will, and besides, both of them can be in the limelight." ”
Landor froze for a moment when she heard this, and soon smiled silently.
Guo Ziyi, who was on the high platform, continued to say loudly: "Before General Zhengxi speaks, let everyone take a look at some things first. ”
After speaking, he made a gesture to the side, and soon, a group of gorgeously dressed and shackled people climbed the high platform under the drive of the Tang Dynasty soldiers, this group of people was about fifty or sixty people, old and young, men and women, one by one hung their heads and wept and walked in tears, and the Tibetan officials, nobles and people in the square saw this group of people, and instantly became in a commotion:
"Oh my God, isn't that Zampu's brother Palab, who hasn't been seen in years."
"The one walking in the middle is Zanmeng, the eldest concubine of Zanpu, and Nasang Guiyi, who was born in the Naang family."
"Old Zanmon, too, has been arrested."
"Zanmeng and Juemeng were both arrested by the Tang Army, so there is no Zhu Meng, by the way, Zhu Meng is the princess of the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Army will definitely not embarrass their princess."
"Princess Zunyue is really as beautiful as a flower, but it's a pity that Tang Jun was arrested, I don't know how to deal with it, it seems that the Lun clan has been arrested by Tang Jun, why don't you see Zampu?"
When everyone saw the arrest of the Tibetan royal family, although they had prepared for a long time in their hearts, they were still deeply shocked when they saw it with their own eyes, who would have expected that yesterday there were still high-ranking and sacrosanct royal people, and today they were reduced to prisoners, and the Tang army did not leave a trace of mercy, and even put on a wooden flail.
As soon as the members of the royal family stood on the high platform, another group of Tang troops came out, they did not escort the prisoners, but pushed a flatbed truck covered with white brocade, on which lay a man with a pale face and gorgeous clothes, if you were careful, you could see that the man lying on the flatbed was motionless, and he had long been out of breath.
In order to let the Tubo people recognize that the dead was Chide Zuzan, Guo Ziyi thought twice, and before going on the field, he asked people to wash the vermilion paint off his face.
"Zampu, it's Zampu."
"Oh my God, Zamp has... It's time to meet the gods. ”
"It's over, it's over, Zampu was poisoned by the Tang Army."
After recognizing it as Chide Zuzan, an even greater commotion broke out at the scene, and some officials and people loyal to Chide Zuzan fell to their knees and saluted the body of Chide Zuzan, while the members of the royal family on the high platform also cried.
Many people were like ashes, and they all hoped that Chide Zuzan would escape and not fall into the hands of the Tang army, although the Tang army had blocked the city gate very early, and the probability of escape was very low.
The Tang army, which maintained order, just did not let everyone get close to Gaotai and the remains of Chide Zuzan, and turned a blind eye to the people who cried and sacrificed to Chide Zuzan.
About half an hour later, the gong sounded again, and the Tubo people present were quiet again under the orders of the Tang army.
Zheng Peng held a homemade simple horn and walked up to the high platform in full view of everyone.
After looking around the square, Zheng Peng said loudly: "Meet me, I am Zheng Peng, the general of Zhengxi." ”
Cui Xiyi's role has not changed, and he still plays the role of translator.
Tubo and Datang have been communicating for so many years, many officials and nobles can speak Datang dialect, but ordinary people can't, Zheng Peng didn't want the people of Tubo to hear it, so he arranged for Cui Xiyi to translate the whole process, anyway, Cui Xiyi kept a low profile for so long, giving him more opportunities to shine.
The scene was quiet, and the Tubo people present put their complicated eyes on Zheng Peng, some were angry, some were afraid, some were curious, and some had no expression, anyway, the culprit who attacked Luo Qi City and killed Zampu appeared, this Zheng Peng is the commander of the Tang Army who is as terrible as the devil.
Seeing that there were still many people kneeling on the ground, Zheng Peng raised the horn again and said: "I believe you have all seen it, the one lying on the flatbed truck is Ye Zuru, that is, the former Tubo Zampu Chide Zuzan, here to explain, Ye Zuru committed suicide by taking poison after seeing that there was no hope of escape." ”
"Tang thief, it was you who killed the great Zampu." Someone in the crowd suddenly yelled.
"That's it, it's clear that you're the culprit, don't think about quibbling."
"Damn Tang thief, don't think that you will be arrogant if you succeed in the conspiracy, although Zampu is not here, there are still millions of warriors in Tibet, and this blessed land is the burial place of you Tang thieves."
Zheng Peng looked towards the square and saw that it was the officials of Tubo who spoke out, and they knew the Tang dialect, for fear that Zheng Peng would not understand, and specially scolded Zheng Peng in the Tang dialect.
"Looking for death, you dare to scold General Zheng."
"Slap your mouth, look at what he can."
"The dog's mouth can't spit out ivory, dare to scold us, brothers, beat to death."
The soldiers in custody could not bear it, so they pulled out the Tibetan officials who dared to curse on the spot, kicked them to the ground without saying a word, and taught them a lesson with their fists and feet.
