Under the advice of Zanpo, Zanmeng Saima personally led the army back to the city of Luo, and slept all the way, and the horses were whipped, and after a few days, the whole person was already a little haggard.

"Princess Marga, take a rest first, you have been haggard for the past two days." The personal maid Marco persuaded.

"I want to too, but when I think of the turmoil in the city of Logos, and those hateful lords are colluding with foreign tribes in rebellion, I can't eat well and sleep well." Zanmong Saimaga looked at the setting sun, the remnant sun was like blood, shining on the beautiful rivers and mountains of Tibet, and the stream on the side of the road, there were signs of winter going to spring, making the sound of flowing water, but Zanmeng Saimaga had no interest in appreciation, but said with a depressed face:

"If Brother Zampu knows that I am not optimistic about Luo Some City, then how disappointed I am."

Ma Luo comforted her and said: "Princess, it happened suddenly, no one could have predicted it, I thought that there was General Shangxiang in charge, but it was foolproof, but I didn't expect him to be"

Zanmong Saimaga shook his head and said: "The fierce generals on the battlefield are not necessarily the strong people in life, this is called easy to block with open guns, and difficult to defend against hidden arrows, it is a pity, the general Shangxiang who is like a god of war, did not die on the battlefield, but died from the enemy's shameless plots." ”

Ma Luo didn't know what to say, and accidentally saw the sea holly flying in the sky, and couldn't help but exclaim: "Princess, look, Xue'er is back." ”

Looking up, sure enough, the sea holly that he raised was hovering back and forth in the sky, needless to say, he was looking for himself, and Zanmon Saimaga was happy in his heart: This is good, Xue'er brought back the secret letter of Zampu's brother, and with his instructions, there is also a direction. You don't have to worry about getting lost.

Zanmong Saimaga put two fingers in his mouth and blew hard, making a sharp and long whistle, and the sea holly heard it, adjusted its direction, and quickly swooped down.

Untie the bamboo tube attached to the feet of the sea holly and take out the secret letter, the more Zanmong Saimaga looked at it, the happier he became, and the frowning brows were relaxed, and after reading the letter. Carefully folded it and put it in his arms, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Princess, what's the happy event, why are you so happy?" Others dare not ask. However, the maid who had been with Zanmon Saimaga did not have this scruples.

"It's nothing, Brother Zampu and Lun Qinling Dalun have joined forces to capture a state city in the Tang Dynasty."

Marlo's eyes were open. Said excitedly: "Princess." It's true? ”

Zanmong Saimaga said lightly: "However, just after the capture, I didn't take any money, and I withdrew my troops again." ”

"Ah, what is this for?"

"These major military events are not something that we, the women, can participate in. Brother Zampu: They had made a decision early on. Zanmong Saimaga said indifferently.

"This princess, it's dusk now, are you still in a hurry to go at night today?"

"No, let the people behind speed up a bit. I remember dozens of miles ahead, is the famous Dazhenba Temple, that is a thousand years of ancient temple, where we arrived, go to a few pillars of incense, pray, you can also stay there at night, take a bath, no longer suffer from the wind and dew. As soon as he spoke of the ancient temple, a soft gaze appeared in Zanmong Saimaga's eyes, and the iceberg-like face also showed some signs of breaking.

Since the gourd valley was besieged, almost annihilated, Zanmeng Saima Karma pleaded with the gods of the Three Realms at the time of danger, but I didn't expect that just after praying, Zanpo was like a divine soldier descending from heaven, and suddenly relieved his own danger, Zanmeng Saimaga felt that it was the gods who had insight into their needs early in the morning, and made arrangements as soon as possible, from that moment on, Zanmeng Saimaga became pious, although there was a wind and dust along the way, but when he saw a temple, he would go to pay homage, Dazhenba Temple was a famous temple, that is, in the city of Luo, I also heard its reputation, Zanmun Saimaga is naturally not to be missed.

"Princess, didn't you say that the military situation is like fire, go back to preside over the overall situation as soon as possible, what's the matter, you still have to go to Dazhenba Temple to stay overnight?"

Zanmon Saimaga said coldly: "Some people, like the wild wolf on the plateau, no matter how fat the mutton is, it can't fill its greedy belly, they don't want to be the feathers on the wings of the eagle and fly higher with the eagle, but they are the rats in the ground, destroying the land on which we live, sooner or later it will be a disaster, the long pain is better than the short pain, let them collapse, let those villains who are not the same heart all come out, in this way, Brother Zampu will have an excuse to catch them all, if my guess is right, The envoy sent by Brother Zampu was already on the way to Chang'an. ”

Maro Bingxue was smart, and immediately understood the meaning of Zanmeng Saimaga, and after thinking about it carefully, he admired Zanpu Songtsen Gampo in his heart.

When Songtsen Gampo first served as Zanpu, it was difficult to move forward, and it was his mother's old nobles who poisoned his father, after a battle, the most Lu finally unified Tubo, suppressed a group of rotten old nobles so that they couldn't raise their heads, and then marched forward to destroy Subi, suppressed Tuyuhun, Tubo's iron horsemen trampled on the land of Yangtong and the western tribes, the country is getting bigger and bigger, and the population is increasing, but a fact that cannot be concealed is that the domestic nobles have not returned to their hearts, and some old nobles secretly collude with foreign races, Thinking about rebellion all the time, the Tibetans are getting stronger and stronger, and the power in their hands is getting bigger and bigger.

The henchmen are in great trouble, but Songtsen Gampo can't find evidence of their collaboration with the enemy, and there is no way to take them for a while, so they can't start without a reason, so the people are panicked, which is not conducive to the rule, so Songtsen Gampo resolutely raised troops to invade the territory when he failed to propose to the Tang Dynasty.

This looks stupid, but if you think about it carefully, this is definitely a clever move: if the Tang Dynasty wants to value peace, turn hostility into jade silk, and marry the princess to Songtsan Gampo, then Songtsan Gampo will be the son-in-law of the Tang Dynasty, and there will be Datang as a backer, and those who have different intentions will not dare to act rashly; If the Tang Dynasty should not, then there will be some friction or war, so that those people with dissenting intentions in the country will take the opportunity to make trouble, and Songtsen Gampo just left the city of Luo, but the military power is still in his hands, and he is not afraid of them rebelling.

I think that back then, he used more than 10,000 soldiers to unify Tibet, and now he has 200,000 elite divisions in his hands, are you still afraid that others will oppose him?

Whether it succeeds or not, he can achieve his strategic goals, no wonder he is not afraid of advice, he excludes public opinion, and sends troops to the Tang Dynasty in winter, it seems that this is not an impulse, but a big game of chess, seeing that Princess Zanmeng Saimaga read the letter, with a relaxed look, it can be seen from here that Songtsen Gampo and Lun Qinling have left a back hand.

After Ma Luo figured it out, he couldn't help but shake his head, and hurriedly followed the Zanmeng Saimaga in front, a little person like himself, it is better to keep to himself, these games of power struggle are not something that small fish and shrimp like themselves can touch, well, Dazhenba Temple, the ancient temple and famous temple, I heard that it is very effective, I also have to burn the two pillars of incense

At this moment, Liu Yuan, who was hiding in the secret passage of Dazhenba Temple, was enjoying the mutton and wheat cakes brought by Chen Zhang.

It is very hidden here, and it is also very safe, Liu Yuan and his party hid in the secret room, and spent two days safely, Chen Zhang's sent food to Liu Yuan every day to enjoy them, and in these two days, a person who came to check was useless, and later Chen Zhang's said that this secret passage, there are only two people in the entire Dazhenba Temple who know the way, and they are rarely activated, so that they can hide here and recuperate with peace of mind.

"General, good news, good news" After putting down the food, Chen Zhang said happily: "After those soldiers who searched for nothing have been found, they have begun to withdraw their troops, and you can leave here tomorrow and go back to Datang." ”

Liu Yuan smiled bitterly and said: "It's not easy to retreat, there are so many of us, we don't have a horse, we don't know how to get back, does my sister-in-law have a way to help us get a horse?" ”

"The slave family has thought about it a long time ago, the general, it is the neighbor who borrowed my medicine and wine, he was kicked and injured, he can't take care of those horses, ask me to help take care of them for a few days, his family has a hundred horses, it must be enough for you, I will show you the way then, his family lives in the city of Motuo, only he and his wife are grazing, you go to rob, there will be no problem."

"That's great, thank you so much, Aunt Xie." Liu Yuan said gratefully.

After saying a few more words, Chen Zhang said that he had to help the neighbor feed the forage and leave first, but before leaving, he still told Liu Yuan again and again that they should not run around, not talk loudly, just stay in the secret room, Liu Yuan and the others naturally agreed.

"Whew"

"Smack, smack"

"Ahh

Liu Yuan ate and drank to his heart's content, and was just lying on the ground in the secret room, when suddenly some strange sounds came faintly, as if a woman was screaming.

In the dark environment here, if there were not so many people, Liu Yuan was really frightened by these voices, it was really strange, those voices seemed to be very punctual, they all sounded in the evening, at the beginning, they were afraid that others would search here, Liu Yuan and others did not dare to act rashly, but I heard that the Tubo people searched for no results, withdrew their troops, and could leave tomorrow, Liu Yuan's mind was suddenly lively.

Here's your chance.

In the past two days, I always want to control it, and I am afraid of being exposed in advance, so I can only forcibly restrain it for a while, and now I have withdrawn my troops, and I can act immediately, I can see what it is, what are those strange voices in the past two days, and I have to touch the bottom of it, so many people, and in the heart of Dazhenba Temple, if I return empty-handed, it is estimated that all the soldiers will not agree.

"Brother Blood Knife, Zhao Fu, you go with me to find out," Liu Yuan commanded in a low voice.

All of a sudden, everyone stood up, anxious, and wanted to pull the knife.

Zhao Fu also had a strange light in his eyes, and under the candlelight, his face was red, and he only heard him say excitedly: "General, are we going to do it?" ”

"Relax, touch the bottom first, that is, do it, not move now, at least wait until the third watch is quiet."

After letting everyone wait here, Zhao Fu explored the road in front, the blood knife was in the back, and Liu Yuan was wrapped in the middle, and the three of them slowly touched the road along the secret tunnel.

The danger is too great, the thief's heart is not dead, and he has to do the "fat sheep" no matter what. (To be continued......)
