Chapter 1023: The Stone Rises and Sings Triumphantly

After receiving the gold and plea sent by Tubo Zampu, Siye sent a light cavalry to watch the Tubo army and the Zhuqiang army cross the Jishi Mountain on the southern border of Tuyuhun.

Leading this Qin army was the martial cavalry captain Wang Xuance, who led his army to the top of Jishan Rock, and then planted a red flag with Qin characters on the top of the mountain.

On the top of the mountain, there is still snow.

The red flag became more and more dazzling.

Jishi Mountain South.

The Tubo people turned their heads to look back and saw Qin riding behind them raising the red Qin flag on the mountain, all with complicated expressions.

Zampu Nangri Zanzan, gritted his teeth, and almost didn't fall down in one breath.

"Zamp?" Gardonzan stepped forward.

He grabbed his chest with one hand and waved his other hand, "I'm fine." ”

After crossing the Jishi Mountain, the Tibetan army did not linger any longer, but continued northward, all the way back to Subi.

However, Miyao, Bailan, and Dangxiang Sanqiang returned to their own tribes in Shannan after crossing Jishi Mountain.

"The Tubo people have simply withdrawn, but we have to be caught in the middle, and I don't know what will happen in the future?"

Tuoba Leopard said to his son helplessly.

Miyao, Bailan and Dangxiang Sanqiang are in the south of Jishi Mountain, and among them, especially their Dangxiang is near Tuyuhun in the north, and Jiannan in the east, both sides are Qin people, and behind them are Tubo.

"Will the Qin people retaliate?"

"That's for sure." Tuoba Leopard almost gritted his teeth, he thought to himself, even if he was a Qin person, he suffered such a big loss this time, it was impossible to just forget it.

"So what do we do?"

"The Tubo people are sending gold to the Qin people and marrying the princess, what should we do?"

Tuoba Leopard didn't know how to reply to his son for a while, this time their Tuoba Department was the most active in attacking Tuyuhun and sent a lot of troops, but the result was the biggest loss.

"Son, I don't have time to worry about the Qin people now, what I'm most worried about now is the Fine Seal Department." The Fine Seal Department only sent 3,000 troops this time, and there were basically no losses as a result.

The foreign Tuoba Department and the original largest small sealing department in the Dang Xiang Qiang have always been incompatible, and they have always been competing for the position of the leader of the Dang Xiang Qiang.

This time, the Tuoba Department has suffered such a big loss, and it will inevitably be rewarded by the blood relatives of the Fine Seal Department.

The inter-tribal reward competition may be more fierce than the revenge of the Qin people.

"It's really chilling that the Tibetan people are leaving like this." Tuoba Leopard's son Tuoba Tiger said, "If you want me to say, the Tubo people are sheep dung and eggs with a light surface, and they seem to be powerful on the outside, but they are actually very incompetent. Compared with the Qin people, Tubo is still too weak. ”

Tuoba Leopard pondered, he was thinking about his son's words, when the Sui was chaotic, the Han land was turbulent, and seeing that the Han people were weakened and the places were in chaos, it was the Tubo people who attacked again and again and destroyed the powerful Subi in one fell swoop.

In the face of the aggressive advance of the Tubo people, Tuoba Leopard finally decided to attach himself to the Tubo vassals, also out of practical considerations. But who knows, the chaos of the Han people ended soon, and the Great Qin, which was established on behalf of the Sui, has only been established for a few years, but its strength is not weaker than the Sui State that once shocked the Qiang.

Tubo and the Qin people were at war, I thought it would be a battle between the two tigers, who would have expected that Tubo would be like this in front of the Qin people.

"Maybe we also have to send someone to contact that General Luo Siye in Dafeichuan." Tuoba Leopard said.

On the rocky mountain.

Wang Xuance looked at the mountain.

"Choose a dangerous place, cut down trees and stones, and prepare to set camp."

He sent a small group of light horsemen back to Dafeichuan to report to Luo Siye that the Tibetans had withdrawn from Jishi Mountain, and at the same time prepared to build a fortress here on previous orders.

"This fort is called Stone Fort."

When the news came back to Dafeiling, Heiye was completely relieved.

The 100,000 soldiers and horses of Tubo withdrew without a fight, which is the best news at the moment. He has been trapped on this mountain for more than three months, and if he counts from the time he went south from Fu Qicheng, he has sent troops for more than half a year.

In the past six months, the lone army has been besieged, and at the most critical time, 300,000 troops surrounded them.

The 90,000 Qin troops and Tuyuhun troops on the mountain, as well as the brave people of the soldiers of Longyou County and the soldiers of the Shuqiang tribe who belonged to them, were extremely tormented.

If they continue to surround it, they will really not be able to hold on.

On the Dafei Ridge, the grain transported from Longyou had already been eaten, and the cattle, sheep and livestock captured in the two battles had also been eaten. In fact, these days, they have begun to slaughter horses and mules, and even some infantry mounts have begun to slaughter and eat meat.

These horses and mules are already very thin, but every time they kill a batch, Heiye is also very distressed.

Especially when all the horses and mules used for transportation were killed, and the soldiers were reluctant to kill the mounts.

The Tubo people threw down 3,000 taels of gold and left, which was only about 30,000 yuan, which was not enough for the loss of horses and mules.

Fortunately, there are still tens of thousands of Tuyuhun captives, otherwise this time it would be a big loss.

"General Guo, you immediately lead an army of 4,000 to Wuhai City, restore the city, garrison the army, and establish a post station fort."

Wuhai City is located in the northwest of Jishi Mountain, where there is a major road connecting the plateau of Tibet and Qinghai.

Even if the Tibetans have temporarily retreated, they cannot be careless.

"Send more prisoners of war and mules and horses to Wang Xuance to help him build the Stone Fort."

One east and one west, Wuhai City and Jishi Fort are just guarding the two ends of Jishi Mountain, holding the southern gateway of Qinghai.

In addition, these fortified camps that exist in Dafeiling now happen to be stationed in an army, and they are in the center to respond to both sides.

Seven days later.

The reinforcements of the former army led by Lai Cheng finally arrived, but they did not encounter the Tubo people or the Qiang soldiers, but only encountered the light cavalry of the Dafeiling Siye Division who went north to meet them.

Later, when Qin Qiong and the others heard the news, they simply ordered to stop continuing to go south, and instead ordered the follow-up soldiers and horses to return directly to the same way.

Qin Qiong, Wei Chigong, Lai Cheng and Luo Siye, Guo Xiaoke, and Xue Wanjun joined forces victoriously.

"I didn't expect the Tubo people to run away."

Qin Qiong was very much in favor of the decision that Heiye did not pursue him.

"To tell you the truth, we should have gone south a long time ago, but if we didn't deal with the Tuyuhun and Western Turks in Qinghai first, we really didn't dare to go thousands of miles alone, fortunately you persevered, otherwise I would have become a sinner."

Si Ye hurriedly said, "Cousin, don't say that, it's because I didn't listen to the will of the imperial court before, so I have to go my own way and fight Wuhai City, otherwise there will be no such siege of Feichuan." This time, the court spent countless money and food, and I am a sinner. ”

"The battle is won, we are all heroes, how can there be any sinners." Wei Chigong comforted them.

Since the Tubo people have retreated, it is unrealistic to want to cross the Jishi Mountain to pursue thousands of miles, and the Qin army is now exhausted, not to mention that the logistics have been stretched to the limit.

This time, Qin Qiong and the others came over with cattle and sheep, so it can be seen that the logistics of the Qin army have collapsed.

After resting for a few days in Dafeichuan, the Qin army began to divide the division.

Wang Xuance was awarded the command of Jishi Fort, and commanded 2,000 troops to defend Jishi Fort. Guo Xiaoke temporarily acted as the military envoy of Wuhai City, and inspected the Taishou of Heyuan County, and commanded 4,000 troops to garrison Wuhai. Cheng Mingzhen led an army of 4,000 people, stationed in Dafeiling Village, and inspected Heyuan County.

Si Ye, Xue Wanche, Qin Qiong, Wei Chigong and others each led their troops and horses and returned north together. Murong Shun also led his troops and returned north together.

The people, county soldiers, and Qiang soldiers who were recruited from the counties of Longyou also ordered them to return to their hometowns.

"This marshal has ordered the horse to send the military merit book to Chang'an City, and ask for rewards for your achievements, and you can return to your hometown with peace of mind, and the rewards for your merits will not be less."

Siye stood in front of the Dafeiling camp and saw off the army.
