"Subordinates see generals!" ‘

That team of people came to Liu Yuan, turned over and dismounted one by one, knelt down on one knee in front of Liu Yuan, and saluted Liu Yuan, and the person who was the leader was the son of the Demon King of the Mixed World, Cheng Huailiang, who was left by Duan Zhi Xuanqiang at the least, and behind him, he was followed by more than 100 soldiers of the Yang Wei Army.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the territory of Datang, he immediately saw his subordinates, Liu Yuan was a little overjoyed and helped Cheng Huailiang up, and said in surprise: "You kid can pinch and calculate, how did you meet you here?" ”

For Liu Yuan, seeing Yang Weijun's brother is like seeing his own relatives, after wandering in a foreign country for a few months, he finally sees his "relatives", and the happiness is even more indescribable, many people hugged each other on the spot, screaming and jumping, very excited.

Some people summarize the strongest friendship into three kinds: the first is to go to the countryside together (through hardships together), the second is to carry a gun together (birth and death), the third is to prostitute together (no estrangement), Liu Yuan and a group of soldiers live together, train together, perform tasks, it can be said that the friendship is shallow, and now one finally sees his comrades-in-arms, and the other is finally equal to his comrades-in-arms, and the excitement is indescribable.

Cheng Huailiang said excitedly: "Cheng Mou knows that the general is a blessed person blessed by the gods, and he will definitely be able to come back safely when he turns evil into good fortune, and now he finally let me wait, haluha." ”

"Didn't you say, why are you here?" Liu Yuan said in surprise: "The emperor sent you to guard the two passes?" ”

"No" Cheng Huailiang said a little embarrassed: "General, didn't Tubo raise a warning fire some time ago?" Obviously, there was a change in Tibet, and the emperor thought about it, and nine times out of ten it was the general who made a move in Tibet, and Tubo was pursuing it with all his might. On the front line, he continued to put pressure on Tubo, so that he was overwhelmed, and then at the border between Tubo and the Tang Dynasty, he sent a number of teams of men and horses, first, to prevent the penetration of the Tubo people, and secondly, Tubo's Dalun Lu Dongzan has not yet been captured, and the border can be blocked. Waiting here, Haluha. ”

Speaking of the back, Cheng Huailiang smiled proudly, for him, he was the first to learn about Liu Yuan's situation. It's wonderful to be able to make a contribution.

Liu Yuan was a little moved. He hugged his shoulders and said, "Hard work, soldiers." ”

The search in front of Tibet is so intensive. But the more I went to the back, the more sparse the search became, and I thought that the heat had dropped, but now it seems that it was Hou Junji who continued to exert pressure on the front line, which greatly increased the pressure on Tubo. Coupled with the internal chaos, the most embarrassing let himself get cheap, no wonder he mixed in with Apo. After the color of the team, the journey was smooth and smooth. No one came to check at all, it turned out that Li Er had exerted his strength.

It's good to have a backer.

"It's not hard" Cheng Huailiang pointed to the carriage and whispered: "General, is that a princess or a treasure?" ”

"Wow", the scene suddenly sounded the cry of a baby, this crisp and pure children's voice, in this desert full of yellow sand, so special, so eye-catching.

"Hahaha, needless to say, it must be the general's family, the general, is there anyone with the handle?" Cheng Huailiang said with a wink.

Hearing the baby's cry, and then thinking of the blood book left by Tubo in the city, needless to say, it must be Liu Yuan's own flesh and blood that he took back from Tubo, amazing, I didn't expect Liu Yuan to really save people, and it is not surprising to describe it as a miracle.

Liu Yuan was also not polite, nodded a little proudly and said, "Well, Xie Lu thank you for your concern, now their mother and daughter are safe." ”

What? And a mother?

Cheng Huailiang's eyes were a little flustered, but he didn't expect Liu Yuan not only to rescue the flesh and bones, but also to get the princess of Tubo back.

"Congratulations General." Cheng Huailiang hurriedly said.

At this time, Guan Yong, Hou Jun and Wei Chi Baoqing and others also surrounded each other, a group of people hugged each other, chatted, and then chatted, while rushing to Yangguan, on the way, Cheng Huailiang and his entourage heard that Liu Yuan and others dared to dare to commit evil in broad daylight, openly on the streets of Luocheng City, burning, killing and looting, one by one was so surprised that their mouths did not close for a long time, and they even exhaled, and Cheng Huailiang began to complain about that section of Zhixuan, detaining himself for what reason, and did not let himself follow Liu Yuan into Tibet.

Of course, Liu Yuan and his entourage had fewer people than when they entered Tibet, but everyone was very interested and did not mention this stubble.

"General, I wonder what your arrangements are?" Cheng Huailiang asked Liu Yuan in a low voice.

"What can be arranged?" Liu Yuan shook his head and said, "Naturally, take a rest, and then go back to Chang'an to report to the emperor, Captain Cheng, what about you?" ”

Cheng Huailiang said with a smile: "My responsibility is to escort you all the way to Chang'an after receiving the general, so that we can be together all the way." ”

"That's fine, it's a little more lively."

"General, the emperor and the minister of civil and military affairs have been waiting for the news of your party, and the subordinates suggested that when they arrived in Yangguan, the general could repair a book and submit it to the emperor urgently with eight hundred miles, so as not to let them remember it every day, by the way, it is best to repair a book for your family members, and when the subordinates set off, the general's wife repeatedly told her that if there is any news about you, you must notify her as soon as possible."

Liu Yuan nodded and said happily: "Yes, yes, okay, when you get to Yangguan, Liu will repair the book immediately." ”

Li Er has been very depressed to pass two Shangyuan Festival in a row, so depressed, that is the Shangyuan Festival is an important festival to highlight political achievements and reflect the prosperity of the world, to be an emperor through the ages, it is indispensable to expand the territory, but the prosperity of the era must not be avoided, last year's Shangyuan Festival, Tubo soldiers Kousong Prefecture, forcibly want to make peace with the Tang Dynasty, so that the Shangyuan Festival suddenly lost the atmosphere, this year's Shangyuan Festival, because Tubo tore up the covenant, privately sent troops, the Tang Dynasty and Tubo went to war in an all-out way, and the war unfolded on the long border between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo.

War is the most money-burning game, Li Er has a deep experience, especially with Tubo such a "barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes" opponents, but also makes Datang a little helpless: winning, there is no spoils of war, if you want to fight to raise the war is a fool's dream, these Tubo people are not afraid of death on the battlefield, proud of dying in battle, the requirements under the battlefield are very low, you can fill your stomach, but no, squeeze a handful of mare's milk and goat's milk, you can also live, the place you pass, like locusts, in order to clear the wilderness, waiting for the army to forcibly move the people on the outskirts of the city into the city, in this way, Just the rations of the people every day is also a huge burden for the Tang Dynasty, so that since Li Er, the monarchs and ministers have to cut back on food and clothing, and fully support the war, such as this year's Shangyuan Festival, the palace did not spend a huge amount of money to purchase lanterns, under the leadership of the eldest grandson, the monarchs and the people worked together to make lanterns to decorate the sleepless night of Chang'an, that is, Li Er, also with the assistance of several concubines, tied a dragon-shaped lantern, which caused a sensation in Chang'an.

At this moment, Li Er and several confidants were discussing countermeasures in the imperial study.

"You love to talk, Tubo and the Tang Dynasty have become mortal enemies, and now they can't hold on for a long time, and the spies have returned, Silla and Baekje are also ready to move, it is said that there are envoys from Tubo who are active in it, what is the best plan for Zhong Aiqing?" Li Er glanced around at several great gods and said in a deep tone.

Xiao Yu hesitated for a moment, and said cautiously: "Your Majesty, if two tigers fight, there will be an injury, rather than cheapening others, it is better to negotiate peace with Tubo, take what they need, and wait for those disobedient small countries to be taught a lesson, and then it is not too late to deal with it."

Li Er said without hesitation: "Don't discuss, Tubo has repeatedly backtracked, my patience has reached the limit, there is absolutely no possibility of peace, and the little Silla and Baekje are not enough to worry about now." ”

If you don't listen to Liu Yuan's "World Theory", Li Er will not be able to look at the bitter cold land of Tubo, but if Datang wants to make a big difference, first of all, he will get rid of the big trouble, so that he can spare his hands to implement his own ambition and hegemony, Li Er decided that no matter how much it costs, he must remove this "thorn in the eye".

Seeing Li Er's gaze fall on him, Wei Chi Jingde stiffened his head and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that Tubo can only be drawn slowly, and he must not be in a hurry. ”

"Duan Aiqing, how is your contact with Tuyuhun?" Li Er turned his head and asked Duan Zhixuan, who had been guarding the Hezhou area for a long time and often dealt with Tuyuhun.

"Emperor" Duan Zhixuan hurriedly said: "Tuyuhun Kwaralu (king) has an ambiguous attitude, repeatedly pushing, as if he has some kind of tacit understanding with Tubo, according to the situation, Tubo has greatly reduced its garrison in Doma, and has not seen any action. ”

With a "snap", Li Er slapped the case suddenly, and said angrily: "Hmph, it's really a jackal that can't be raised." ”

Everyone didn't dare to speak for a while.

"A little Tibetan, so difficult?" Li Er was unwilling to say: "I have sent hundreds of thousands of troops, and they are still facing each other, and Zhong Aiqing has a good plan to quickly take down this barbarian country." ”

Qin Qiong hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, my Tang Dynasty will not be wide, and the soldiers will not be brave, mainly because Tubo is a plateau, in Liu Yuan's words, where there is altitude sickness, just like the soldiers in the south are not good at riding, and the soldiers in the north are not good at crossing, and the water and soil are not adaptable, if you want to take it down, you must first establish a male division suitable for plateau operations, as far as the current war situation is concerned, if you want to establish this male division, it will take at least three years." ”

Fighting a war is not a good house, and your soldiers can't attack it, so how can you fight some cities and destroy other people's regimes?

"By the way, Liu Yuan, hasn't there been any news from this guy so far?" Hearing Qin Qiong mention Liu Yuan, Li Er immediately asked loudly.

I haven't seen Liu Yuan for some time, Li Er also has some worries in his heart, and sent Hou Junji to the front line to command in person, and also sent many teams of people to respond, but there is no news of him yet, Li Er also feels a little disappointed, he doesn't want this lucky star of the Tang Dynasty to be lost.

Everyone looked at each other, and the last one shook their heads gently, indicating that there was no information for the time being.

"Report, Yangguan 800 miles expedited express." Just when Li Er was about to say something, an announcement suddenly sounded outside the door.

Yangguan? Eight hundred miles expedited?

Li Er's eyebrows were raised, a strange look appeared in his eyes, and he immediately said loudly: "Biography!" (To be continued......)
