South of the city of Talas, the city of Zhezhi.

The last time Mo Xiaobai came to the Western Regions, this was still Dawan's territory, but now it has been occupied by the surname Zhaowu.

Under the leadership of the pen, the 2,000 Tang troops successfully arrived in this small city within a radius of ten miles in less than two days. Although it is a royal city, its prosperity cannot be compared to Broken Leaf City and Bow Moon City.

During the war, most of the remaining Shiguo tribe elites in the city were recruited by the returning exiled prince, and only one of the players under his command performed a spell outside the city, and then knocked on the gate of Zhezhi City.

After a quarter of an hour, he successfully took control of the entire Stone King City, and captured a group of Zhaowu Hu people who wanted to escape from the city at the north gate.

After imprisoning all the few nobles of Shiguo in the city, the pen found Guo Jia to discuss the next step.

"Mr. Fengxiao, I'm afraid I'm going to bother you to go to Cao Guo in person."

"You're welcome, general, that's what I'm here for."

Guo Jia followed along the way and did not play a role, from controlling the nobles of the royal capital to ambushing the men to arrest the fleeing Hu people at the north gate, they were all planned by one person, and seeing that there was no mistake in his several arrangements, Guo Jia could leave with confidence.

"Without further ado, Jia will go west to Cao Guo tonight."

"Please, Strategist."

The two said goodbye briefly, and Guo Jia immediately left with a team of 100 people.

When he went to Cao Guo, he was already completely sure that he would move the other party, and he didn't need to be escorted by an army of writers.

Two days later, Guo Jia arrived in the city of Gadi.

Before entering the city, I saw that there were Hu soldiers patrolling under the two city gates east of the royal capital.

Each was eight feet tall, tall and strong.

"In the rumors of the Western Regions, Cao Duo Han and Gong fought, and it really doesn't seem to be a lie."

Glancing at the strong men, Guo Jia took out the Beiting Duhufu token and asked the pawns beside him to hand it to those Hu soldiers.

Although Gao Zhuang Hu Bing was illiterate, he could understand some simple Chinese dialect, coupled with the costumes of Guo Jia and others and the Tang Army token, Gao Zhuang Hu Bing chirped, and immediately turned around and ran into the city.

After a while, a general of the Chinese Cao State stepped out.

With a broken Chinese dialect, he came to Guo Jia: "Dear Tang envoy, I am Ramos, who is responsible for guarding the city gate, and welcome your arrival." ”

Guo Jia also turned over and dismounted at this time, and saluted back: "The general is polite, can you lead me into the city?" ”

"Tang Envoy, please."

The two entered the city together, and it didn't take long for the Zhongcao nobles in the city to know that Guo Jia had come to their tribe as an envoy of the Tang Dynasty on behalf of the Beiting Protectorate and the Tang Dynasty.

That night, the lord of Zhongcao held a banquet to entertain Guo Jia.

After that, Guo Jia stayed in the tent of the head of the country, and no one knew about the secret conversation between the two sides that night except for a few people present.

As soon as it was dawn the next day, a group of Hu soldiers left the city and headed west, to another Western Cao tribe in the Cao Kingdom.

………

When Guo Jia stayed in Cao State for three days, Aibu, who was far away in Talas City, did not wait for the good news from the Broken Leaf City in the Western Regions, but first heard that the stone country in the south was invaded by the Tang army again, and this time he wanted to unite with Cao Guo to completely destroy Shi Guo.

Before Abu could block the news, the prince of Shi, who was staying in the city, immediately learned of the 'bad news'.

Although he was almost faint, His Royal Highness came to Abu's temporary governor's palace with anger.

"Your Excellency the Governor, I need your troops to help me retake my royal city."

"Your Highness, don't be too anxious, Tang Jun is just arrogant for a while."

In the face of the waste prince in front of him, Abu still gave great patience. Because the other party is now a banner, a banner that can make it logical for the Great Food to invade the Western Regions.

"How can I not be in a hurry, now Datang not only wants to kill my people, but also to destroy my country!"

The prince, who was stimulated by Mo Xiaobai, couldn't care about his tone anymore, and said angrily: "I have to go back now, to recapture my royal city, I can't let the people of Cao Guo come in, once they come in, it will be completely different from the Tang army's invasion." ”

Thinking about the immediate benefits, the prince still has some ability.

It doesn't matter if the surname Zhaowu Jiu is broken by the Tang Dynasty, even if the clansmen surrender, they will not be absolutely loyal to the Tang Dynasty. But if the Tang Dynasty was driven by interests and let the Zhaowu Cao Kingdom, which was the same sect, invade, the royal capital and some small tribes around it were tired of the war, and nine times out of ten they did not even resist, they would happily voluntarily become the subjects of the Cao State.

Once Cao Guo is ready, Shi Guo will really die.

It's just that this is the prince's calculation, but Abu doesn't want to be distracted at this time: "Prince, right now, we are confronting the Tang army, and we will see the difference in a few days." I also know that a small force of Tang troops is going to attack your royal city, but at this time of year, they can't take anything, and let them stay there, and when the main force of the Tang army is repulsed, the stone country will still be your stone country. ”

"No, no, it will be too late then, and my people will be moved elsewhere by them, and my royal city will be worthless." The prince still shook his head, and then gritted his teeth and said: "Please be sure to lend me a soldier and horse, I can't wait, and the main force of the Tang army is not so easy to defeat." ”

In the midst of the confusion, the prince's words made Abu's eyes widen.

Under Abu's gaze, there was already murderous intent.

The moment he received the information, he didn't know the Tang Army's calculations, but now he couldn't at all, or he didn't have the slightest certainty of defeating the Tang Army head-on.

He can only wait, the Tang army will come all the way out of the Green Ridge, and the logistics will inevitably withdraw and even mutiny.

Before that, he didn't want to go head-to-head with the Don Army.

If he had to kill all his soldiers, Abu knew very well that the one who was far away in Baghdad would find a way to kill him.

And this annoying guy in front of him doesn't know how to think about the big picture at all.

Abu suddenly felt funny, the Tang Dynasty already regarded this guy as a thorn in the side, and once the Cao Kingdom took over the Stone King City, then the Cao Kingdom would look forward to the death of this prince more than the Tang Dynasty.

As for Abu himself, when Tang Jun resorted to such a strategy, he also found that the banner in his hand was no longer of much use. If he really wants to think about the other party, he should immediately send troops south to destroy the conspiracy between the Tang army and Cao Guo.

Troops now?

Perhaps those monster cavalry and powerful crossbowmen of the Tang Army are already waiting to be intercepted halfway.

"Prince, calm down first, your current appearance can't protect your royal city and people."

Abu squinted his eyes, his expression still kind: "I can promise you to send troops, but I need to redeploy with several generals and send troops to garrison your royal city in case the Tang army attacks again." ”

When the prince heard this, he nodded hurriedly: "Okay, good, good, as long as the governor can help me recapture the royal city, I can garrison as many troops as I want." ”

Abu smiled and said, "Then you go back first, put your soldiers and horses in order, and I will send your troops south with you in an hour." ”

The young prince did not doubt him, and his face immediately appeared with joy.

It's just that he walked away with a smile, but he didn't notice Abu's gloomy face and whisper to the henchmen on the side: "Follow him, you know what to do." ”
