776 Failed solicitation

"It's so sunny, what kind of place is this, the sun is more poisonous than the Western Regions." Landuo said with a frown as she covered her forehead with her hands.

The sunshine hours in the Western Regions are long, the ultraviolet rays are high, and people are easy to tan, and the most common complaint of Landuo on weekdays is that he has lost weight and darkened a circle.

Zheng Peng's heart moved, and he couldn't help but speak: "It's not easy to light a fire here, and it's not convenient to collect firewood, I have a way, I can turn things into food without firewood or fire." ”

"Charcoal?" Lando asked, a little confused.

"It's said that there is no need for fire, whether it's an open flame or a charcoal fire."

"Don't believe it" Lan Duo shook his head and said: "Zheng Peng, this joke is not funny at all, if you don't make a fire, how can you turn food into mature food, unless you know how to do immortal arts, but unfortunately, you are so tired that you climb a mountain and you are out of breath, which proves that you are just an ordinary man." ”

Zheng Peng smiled: "If you don't believe it, do you want to make a bet?" ”

When Lan Duo was just about to ask what to bet on, a herald suddenly ran over and said anxiously: "General, it's not good, the Fan army has escorted a large number of compatriots from the Tang Dynasty to assemble at the foot of the mountain, and General Guo invites you to discuss." ”

Zheng Peng was stunned when he heard this, and walked to the front line without saying a word, and Landuo and Cardinal hurriedly followed.

As soon as he walked to the edge of the cliff, Cui Xiyi greeted him, and while handing over the clairvoyance, he said expressionlessly: "It seems that the Fan army is going to prepare to push those innocent people to suppress our morale." ”

Zheng Peng didn't answer, but just raised the binoculars, and in the telescope, I saw a scrawny and ragged Tang people in the beating of the Tubo soldiers, and the Tubo stuffed some of the simplest weapons such as wooden sticks, broken knives, and wooden shields into the hands of the Tang people, needless to say, they were ready to use these Tang people as cannon fodder.

"It's so hateful, nearly 100,000 people surrounded this place and didn't dare to attack, and they even pushed the people of Datang to come and send them to death." Song Chong said through gritted teeth.

Guo Ziyi said a little indifferently: "The soldiers are not tired of cheating, the victory or defeat on the battlefield depends on their means, when we attacked some cities, we also caught a lot of Tubo people to consume their arrows, I can't say right or wrong, but the people are suffering." ”

Cui Xiyi also spoke: "Life and death are fate, wealth is in the sky, when attacking the Potala Palace, even Princess Jincheng can only harden her heart and put it aside, these people of the Tang Dynasty are really attacking our defense line, then they can only blame their own bad fate." ”

Seeing Zheng Peng's expression, Cui Xiyi was afraid that Zheng Peng would be soft-hearted, so he took the initiative to move Princess Jincheng out.

During the attack on the Potala Palace, Princess Jincheng was pressured by Chide Zuzan to "persuade" Zheng Peng to withdraw from the army on the steps of the Potala Palace, Zheng Peng resolutely refused, and a high-ranking Tang princess could not shake her determination to conquer the Western Army, and these ordinary Tang people could not compromise.

Lu Jin echoed: "What General Cui said is that those people rushed here to worship the sky, and the number of people is only a little more than 2,000, and the number of people in Wugula Mountain is more than 10,000, even the number of people is also important to the people on the mountain, not to mention that there are big plans behind." ”

This is a Tibetan soldier holding a command flag, running on the Wugula Mountain while waving the order flag, stopped when he was about a hundred steps away from the Western Army, and said loudly: "Don't release arrows, don't release arrows, the prime minister asks General Zheng Peng Zheng to speak in front of the formation." ”

After the news spread, Zheng Peng only thought for a moment, and soon agreed to talk to Xinuo Luo Gonglu.

The main thing is to see what Sinorod wants to say.

didn't wait for the Tubo people to drive the people of the Tang Dynasty to attack the defense line, but waited until Xinuo Luo Gonglu talked to him, Zheng Peng was really a little curious.

About a quarter of an hour later, Zheng Peng and Sinuo Luo Gonglu each led a team of guards to talk in front of the battle.

Neither of them got off the horse, and the two sides talked ten feet apart.

After introducing each other, Zheng Peng asked directly: "I don't know if Your Excellency is looking for me, let's get straight to the point if there is anything." ”

The Tubo face in front of him, full of white hair, tired face, tired waist, and the portrait on the data is much older, I don't know if the information has not been updated in time, or Xi Nuo Luo Gonglu has been overdone recently.

Xinuo Luo Gonglu frowned slightly, there was a trace of displeasure in his eyes, and he was secretly surprised by Zheng Peng's youth, but he quickly responded: "General Zheng is really refreshing, since General Zheng is refreshing, then So-and-so will not beat around the bush, and the current situation must be clear to General Zheng." ”

Zheng Peng is much younger than Sinuo Luo Gonglu imagined, when he thought that Tubo had suffered such a big loss on this young and a little unspeakable, and even let him take the capital, Xinuo Luo Gonglu didn't feel good in his heart, you must know that Zheng Peng is too young, the younger he is, the more potential he has, how did Datang come out with such a demonic character?

What makes Xinuo Luo Gonglu feel uncomfortable is that Zheng Peng does not call himself an official position, but replaces it with Your Excellency, what is this for, not to regard Tubo as a country?

Occupy a capital city and think that Tubo will be destroyed?

Sino Luo Gonglu knew that pointless disputes had no effect on the battlefield, and he didn't want to make the atmosphere too tense as soon as they met, which was not conducive to negotiations, so he simply put up with the matter of the title.

Zheng Peng sighed and asked with interest: "Situation?" What situation? ”

"The general and your subordinates are now surrounded by us, this is the reality, that is, the situation." Sinoluo Gonglu said with some smugness.

"Really?" Zheng Peng said unhurriedly: "I don't think so, now our army has enough food, and there are powerful weapons to protect themselves, and the city walls are so strong, our army said that it will be captured, and your Excellency thinks those flesh and blood can stop the iron hooves of our army?" ”

Xinuoluo Gonglu said proudly: "The Tang army is only tens of thousands of people, and the Tubo warriors surrounding here are more than 200,000 giants, General Zheng thinks that he can fight a heavy siege with one enemy and twenty, right?" ”

In fact, the number of people is only more than 110,000, and the main reason for saying 200,000 is to scare Zheng Peng.

"I want to think about it, I can!" Zheng Peng said unceremoniously.

Xinuo Luo Gonglu was angry for a while, this Zheng Peng was so arrogant, chatting about the topic to death, it was really boring, so angry that an old face twitched, but his city was very deep, and he quickly calmed down, and said straight to the point: "It is not an exaggeration to say that we have a certain understanding of General Zheng's secret weapon, this is Tubo, the time, the place, the people and the people are on our side, the strength is dozens of times that of your army, it must be our chance of winning if we fight, General Zheng is young and promising, and a lot of glory and wealth are waiting for you, Why take any chances. ”

"Oh, what do you mean?"

"General Zheng has made outstanding achievements, and the official positions and titles that can be obtained are too low, seriously unequal, talents like General Zheng should enjoy glory and wealth at home, how can they be sent to such a dangerous place, you must know that there are no eyes on the battlefield, what if you are injured, it is clear that someone is jealous of her ability and secretly suppresses it" Speaking of this, Xi Nuoluo Gonglu said loudly: "As long as General Zheng can return to Tubo, Tubo can choose any official position, and it is also a matter of one sentence to fancy the fiefdom of that land, and then there will be one person under it, above ten thousand people, and enjoy the glory and wealth of life." ”

"It sounds very attractive, but I'm very lazy, it's not that the emperor refuses to be promoted, but I don't want to be promoted at all, and I have refused to be promoted several times, like something under one person above ten thousand people, it must be very tiring and uninterested."

Xinuo Luo Gonglu's old face twitched a few times again, and he didn't know how to continue talking, and continued after a moment's hesitation: "I don't like to be an official, with General Zheng's talent, it is not wrong to be a king with a different surname, and then General Zheng will not only have his own fiefdom, but also his own people and army, and he can be as free as he wants." ”

No matter how much, first abduct people to Tubo, in the eyes of Xinuoluo Gonglu, Zheng Peng's value is higher than 100,000 elites.

"It sounds very sincere, but my family is in Datang, and I can't leave them alone."

Seeing Zheng Peng's hesitant impression, Xi Nuoluo Gonglu immediately promised: "I know that General Zheng has a gap with his family, so if he doesn't go back, his wife at home has not given birth to a boy and a half girl, isn't it a woman, as long as General Zheng returns to Tubo, the beauties of all Tubo will be picked by the general." ”

If Zheng Peng surrenders to Tibet, that is, grenades and fire bombs will also fall into the hands of Tibet, these two things alone are worth any price that Tubo pays.

Zheng Peng laughed and teased: "Who does Your Excellency mean by saying this?" Zampu Chide Zuzan? No, Chide Zuzan is dead, Tubo Zampu is dead, and the city of Luo and the Potala Palace are also in the hands of our army, that is, Tubo is gone, why should I believe you? ”

"This, this ....." Sino-Rakon Lu suddenly did not know what to say.

The most vicious thing of the Tang army was to capture some cities and force Chide Zuzan to be martyred, so that the Tubo dragons were leaderless.

There will be an opportunity to speak like Chide Zuzan in the future, but not now.

Xinuo Luo Gonglu didn't know what to say, but Zheng Peng had something to say: "It's rare for Your Excellency to be so frank in the city, then let me say it clearly, the Tang Army now has enough food and grass, and all kinds of strategic materials can also be supported for a long time, of course, you can surround it, we can also break it, there are fire bombs in hand, I am really not afraid of you, to be honest, Your Excellency is a smart person, Tubo is already yesterday's yellow flower, Tubo Zampu is dead, and no one else will obey anyone, that is, Your Excellency will wipe us out, but have the confidence to suppress those tribes whose ambitions are overflowing?" ”

After a pause, Zheng Peng added: "This is a very important point, the so-called curse of Tubo, Datang has cracked, the cement city wall you have worked so hard to build is like paper paste in the eyes of the Tang army, it can't be stopped at all, even if I fail this operation, Datang will definitely send the next batch, when the number is more and the equipment is better, Your Excellency asks yourself Can you resist it?" If Your Excellency can return to the Tang Dynasty, I can persuade the emperor to cancel the general series for you, in addition to ensuring the safety of your family, you will be promoted, you will be promoted, you will be rich, and you will be rich. ”

Xinuo Luo Gonglu's face was a little ugly, he wanted to persuade Zheng Peng to surrender, but he didn't expect Zheng Peng to "persuade" himself instead.

The problem is that Zheng Peng is reasonable, and he doesn't know how to refute it.

"General Zheng really doesn't care about the safety of himself and his subordinates, by the way, and the safety of those Tang people?" Sinuo Luo Gonglu felt that it was difficult to convince Zheng Peng, so he simply threatened Zheng Peng.

Smart, proud, and thick-faced, he dared to say anything, and he found himself reasoning with Zheng Peng, and he had the feeling of being a soldier when he was talented.

Zheng Peng said without hesitation: "If we were afraid of death, we wouldn't have appeared here, there is no need to say more about threats, Your Excellency can think about it, when the Potala Palace was attacked that day, even the princess of Jincheng would make way for the great cause of the Tang Dynasty, and threaten with those ordinary people?" Hehe. ”

Speaking of the back, Zheng Peng sneered twice.

The more he cared about those people, the more he took out those people to make an article.

Xinuo Luo Gonglu said with a cold face: "General Zheng, you really can't discuss anymore?" If you have any conditions, you can just ask for them. ”

"There's nothing to talk about, now the Tang Dynasty is in full swing, and the number of Tibetan gas has been exhausted, in a word, those who follow the Tang Dynasty will live, and those who oppose the Tang Dynasty will die."

Xinuo Luo Gonglu glanced at Zheng Peng very seriously, and while holding the reins of the horse, he said: "It seems that today is not a good time to speak, General Zheng, when there is a suitable opportunity, we will talk and say goodbye!" ”

After the Western Army entered Tibet, it has been smooth sailing, and after so many victories, Zheng Peng's morale is also high, and he knows that talking to him at this time will definitely not have any good results, this pre-battle negotiation is actually to touch Zheng Peng's character and details, and prepare for the next solicitation.

Wait, Xinuo Luo Gonglu thought to himself: When Tubo fights a big victory and defeats the Tang army in embarrassment, it is best for Zheng Peng to fall into his own hands, then it will be much easier to negotiate conditions.

"Okay, we'll talk about it when we have a chance." Zheng Peng said a word, turned around and returned to the back of the defensive line.

"Boss, what is that old guy looking for you?" Lu Jin asked with some curiosity.

"It's nothing, I think I have the upper hand, so I want to recruit us, and I can mention whatever conditions as I want, and the general of the defeated army also wants to talk to me about the conditions, jokes."

Cui Xiyi said unhurriedly: "I guessed it a long time ago, there is nothing new at all, I thought it was Ku Dating who came in person, but I didn't expect it to be the old guy Xinuo Luo Gonglu." ”

Lu Jin gritted his teeth and said: "Ku Dating dares to come and say that he and Tsering father and son are mad and have killed so many brothers, I can't wait to send them a bundle of grenades and send them to the western sky." ”

Thinking of the insult that Pangong had become a prisoner in the wrong battle, Lu Jin's eyes were a little red.

"Bang Bang" "Bang ....."

At this time, the war drums beat at the foot of the mountain, Guo Ziyi looked at it and said, "They drove the people of the Tang Dynasty to attack the position." ”

Zheng Peng looked down the mountain, just now those people who had gathered the Tang Dynasty, driven by the Tubo soldiers, rushed up to the mountain crying, and those who walked slowly would let the Tubo soldiers who followed behind whip them with horse whips, and there were two who obviously resisted rushing to the Tang army's position, so that the Tubo soldiers who followed behind were corrected on the spot.

This scene is really familiar, and I think it is also the same scene when I drove the Tubo people to paralyze the soldiers guarding the Luo field.

Retribution.

During the negotiation, Zheng Peng deliberately took Princess Jincheng as an example, explaining that it was useless to blackmail the people of the Tang Dynasty, and Xinuo Luo Gonglu might believe it, but the old fox of Ku Dating definitely didn't believe it, in his mind, even if he couldn't suppress the morale of the Tang army, he could consume arrows or fire bullets, and he wouldn't lose anything.

Looking at the crying and crying people of the Tang Dynasty, Zheng Peng's heart slowly sank......
