774 This man will not die, and there will be no peace in Tibet
At the foot of Wugula Mountain, you can see that the men and horses of the Fan army surrounded the inner three layers and the outer three layers, and Lan Duo felt a little palpitating when he saw it.
It's not Pangong's fault here, the Tang army can't reach it, it's just that he wants to run for his life like last time, and there is no river like last time, and there is a rut in the front, and Ku Dating will definitely not make the same mistake.
Zheng Peng's expression was still very calm, and he said unhurriedly: "There will be a decisive battle sooner or later, now Tubo has become accustomed to our style of play, and has also found a way to deal with us, and then sneaking small-scale combat has little effect, the most important point is that Tubo can afford to consume us, and Wugula Mountain is the place where we will fight." ”
Lan Duo's heart moved, and he couldn't help but ask: "Zheng Peng, you mean that retreating here is part of your strategy, and Urgula is your carefully selected place for a decisive battle?" ”
"The county lord is really smart," Zheng Peng explained: "In Luoshu City, I have made a number of plans, and retreating to Wugula is one of the later ones among the many plans, the reason is that the county lord also knows that Tubo has an understanding of fire bombs, and the intimidation power is not as good as before, the Tibetan army is changing, and we must also change, and retreating to Wugula Mountain is to attract the enemy." ”
"There are so many peaks in Tibet, why did you choose Wugula Mountain?" Lando asked, puzzled.
Zheng Peng just smiled and looked at Guo Ziyi, Guo Ziyi understood, and took the initiative to explain: "County Lord, what do you think is so special about this Wugula Mountain?" ”
Lan Duo looked left and right, and his eyes lit up: "The mountain of this mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, there is a flat land halfway up the mountain, which is convenient for camping, and there is snow on the top of the mountain, and there is water if there is snow, so that there is no fear of water shortage." ”
In addition to food and grass, water is also very important in war, a person can not die of hunger if he does not eat for three or five days, but it is dangerous for a person to go without drinking water for two days, and there is snow on the top of Mount Urgula that does not melt all year round, and this snow is important water.
Guo Ziyi said with a smile: "The snow on the mountain can not only be used to solve the problem of drinking water, but also to help store grain, especially meat, the county lord, after we entered Tibet, we traveled all the way to replenish on the spot, in order to meet the needs of the time, some surplus materials were secretly stored secretly, and Wugula Mountain is one of the secret large storage points." ”
Lan Duo suddenly realized when he heard this, and looked at Zheng Peng's gaze a little strange.
After entering Tibet, Zheng Peng has always paid attention to local supply, and his partner Kuluo will also play the role of a supply officer, because the number is not large, and there are many cattle and sheep in Tibet, and there is a surplus in terms of supply, not to mention anything else, just the grain and grass captured from the camp in the north of the town are enough to conquer the western army for more than three months, however, the western army has always been on the road lightly, and a large number of cattle and sheep captured are missing, Lan Duo has always had doubts, but he couldn't help but ask, and when he heard Guo Ziyi's explanation, he understood at once.
Needless to say, those cattle and sheep are killed and divided, a small part is pickled, and most of them are transported to those snow-capped mountains, where they dig a hole and bury them for a long time.
Don't worry about water, don't be afraid of food, after occupying Wugula Mountain, if the Tibetan army forcibly attacks, it will take a great price, it is entangled with Zheng Peng, there are so many soldiers and horses in Tibet, the daily consumption of grain and grass is an astronomical amount, Tubo transportation is inconvenient, supply is a problem, if you guess correctly, Kuluo, who has not shown his face for a long time, is likely to become a deadly ghost on the logistics and transportation line of Tibet.
It's amazing, others are walking step by step, but Zheng Peng takes one step and thinks three steps.
"It's so thoughtful, no wonder you're not panicking at all." Landor praised without hesitation.
"It's not that we don't panic" Zheng Peng explained: "Don't worry about food and water for the time being, but the horse material is insufficient, it is estimated that it can only last for half a month, if we can't decide the winner in half a month, we can only go to war on foot, second brother, you will streamline it later." ”
Forage is not like meat, as long as it is frozen, it can be put for decades, there is a meadow halfway up the mountain, the green grass is secluded, it is certainly not enough for tens of thousands of horses to eat, when fighting in the lower reaches of the mountain, the more horses the better, when the horse is tired, you can change horses, but trapped in the mountains, more horses means more horse material, in the case of no way to supply, only the strongest part is retained.
Cui Xiyi answered and turned to leave.
Just when Guo Ziyi explained to Lan Duo, Yamashita Kun Dating began to discuss things with the great minister Xinuo Luo Gonglu.
"Congratulations to the general, now that the Tang Army has become our turtle in the urn, it is only a matter of time before we take it." Sinoluo said with a smile on his face.
There was not much joy on his face, but he said solemnly: "This Tang army is not easy to deal with, and Zheng Peng, the general of the special expedition to the west, is even more difficult to deal with. ”
"That's what I'm saying, who knows what kind of demon moth Zheng Peng will come out of when he kills a thousand knives." Sino Luo Gonglu said with a solemn face.
The Tang Dynasty and Tubo were evenly matched, it was difficult for the Tibetan army to attack the city of the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang army also regarded Tubo as a cursed place, but after Zheng Peng appeared, the balance of victory was tilted towards the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang army not only appeared in Tubo in a grand manner, but also had magic weapons like fire bombs, telescopes, and horse-drawn carriage portable trebuchets, which almost defeated the Tibetan army at first, but fortunately, Xinuo Luo Gonglu and Ku Dating gave up their previous suspicions and joined forces in time to stabilize the situation.
Who knows what terrible weapon Zheng Peng came up with halfway.
When he learned that the fire bomb was from Zheng Peng's hand again, whether it was Ku Dating or Sinuo Luo Gonglu, there was a thought in his heart: this person will not die, and Tubo will never have peace.
"Abba, look," Tsering then walked up to Ku Dating, pointed to the top of Mt. Urgula and said, "It seems that someone has taken something from the top of the mountain." ”
Kun Dating looked up, and sure enough, he saw a team of Tang troops carefully coming down from the top of the mountain, some people were still throwing something down, thought for a while, and quickly said with a sneer: "The intelligence says that the Tang army has robbed a large number of livestock, but they are light every time, the straight cattle and sheep are not with them, and they do not rush back to the Tang Dynasty, they have long suspected that they secretly kept them for other purposes, if you guess correctly, nine times out of ten they are to beat these cattle to take meat and store it in a cold place, Wugula Mountain is one of their secret grain storage points, amazing, The snow can save food for him and turn into water to quench his thirst, so it's no wonder they're surrounded here. ”
"One more point," added Sinoluo Gonglu, "the little calculation of the surname Zheng is that the Qarlu clan, who have dragged us here and have not joined him, must be ready to attack our transportation lines, and when our food and grass are in chaos, they will join forces with the outside and give us a fatal blow." ”
Hearing this, Tsering said nervously: "Abba, Prime Minister, since the Tang Army is so cunning, what should we do, otherwise, we will attack in several ways and take Zheng Peng down in one go." ”
Kundayan and Sinoluo Gonglu looked at each other, and soon burst out laughing, laughing so much that Tsering was a little confused, not knowing what he was saying wrong.
Seeing that Tsering was a little embarrassed, Xinuo Luo Gonglu smiled, patted Tsering's shoulder cordially, and said: "Virtuous nephew, you are not an outsider, and I won't hide this from you, to be honest, Zheng Peng may not have deliberately led us here, but a certain and your father deliberately brought him here, no, it should be that we deliberately forced him to choose to retreat here." ”
