Chapter 768: Father and Son Talk
Inside the tent of the Chinese army.
Qin Huaidao faced the inquiry, and resolutely ordered: "The shops are also the property of the Tibetan nobles and officials, and the people of Tubo are almost all slaves, have no private property, and cannot afford to open shops, so they are all confiscated and confiscated, forcing the officials of the DPRK and China to make a decision as soon as possible, Luo Ying, this is your responsibility, and all the things that can be made into explosives are handed over to the guard regiment to make explosives packages." ”
The shops had daily necessities, and it was the army that continued.
It can not only supplement the military, but also further force the Tibetan courtiers to make a choice, why not?
Luo Ying nodded knowingly and hurriedly agreed.
Qin Huaidao's wise eyes looked around, and solemnly admonished: "The army has come from afar, and it is weak and weak, so it will rest for three days, and the war will start in three days. ”
"Huh?"
Everyone is a little confused, shouldn't it be a quick solution? But he quickly reacted that Qin Huaidao was attacking the heart, and using food and materials to force the Tubo officials and nobles to surrender, three days was enough for everyone to make a decision.
If you can take the royal city without wasting a single soldier, who wouldn't want to?
"Report - Tubo sent someone to ask when the Qinling will be returned?" Luo Wu came in and said.
"Let's go!" Qin Huaidao waved his hand indifferently, although Qinling's ability was not weak, but he was defeated continuously, he had lost his heart, and became impulsive, suspicious, and lacked self-confidence, such a person is not to worry, and if someone who is not familiar with him comes up to take over the command of Wangcheng, the battle is not easy to fight.
Luo Wu agreed and hurriedly went to arrange.
The congregation will continue to discuss the next matters, and after determining the deployment of each army, they will disperse.
On Qinling didn't expect that he would still be alive, and followed out of the Hanzhou military camp, looking at the people who came to greet him a little dazed, until he followed into the royal city, it was like a dream, very unreal.
Soon, on the Qinling was taken to the side hall of the palace, and saw the Tubo king Lu Dongzan, and his brother Zan Xiruo, and there were no other outsiders, on the Qinling knelt down with a puff, and shouted in shame: "Father, the son is ashamed of the trust and trust of his father, and he has no face to live in the world, please punish my father." ”
Zan Xiruo stepped forward quickly, helped Lun Qinling up, and comforted: "Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, if you lose, you will lose, and then fight back, there are no outsiders here, talk to your father and the king, why the defeat is so complete, there must be an explanation for the 300,000 army, otherwise it will be difficult for the hundred officials to convince it." ”
"Father!" On Qinling looked at Lu Dongzan in shame.
"Alright, let's get to the point." Lu Dongzan said in a deep voice, it's all at this time, and the punishment is meaningless.
On Qinling's solemn nod, he organized the language and said: "The Hanzhou army has a small force to sneak attack the grain and grass, assassinate the generals of our army, come and go without a trace, quite like the way of assassination in the rivers and lakes, and there is not only one share, but more than twenty shares, it can be seen that the Hanzhou army has an elite army that is good at assassination. ”
"Our clan has the Dark Moon Scimitar, the dragon among the Han kings, and it will naturally be cultivated, what does this army have to do with your defeat?" Lu Dongzan asked.
On the assassination of the various armies of the Qinling generals, the main generals were killed one after another, the grain and grass were destroyed, the morale of the army was lost, and after he was blown unconscious, he had no intention of fighting again, the army retreated, alternately covered, and planned a decisive battle by the lake, but he encountered crossbows and night attacks and other matters in detail, and did not dare to hide it at all.
Lu Dongzan listened carefully, and after finishing speaking, he asked some details, and then pondered silently.
Zan Xiruo didn't know much about the commander, so he didn't dare to interject indiscriminately, and waited patiently.
The side hall suddenly quieted down, a little more dull and depressing.
After a while, Lu Dongzan said in a deep voice: "In this battle, our army was defeated in tactics, and even more in the lack of weapons and equipment, but unfortunately the smelting technique of Tubo is far inferior to that of the Tang Kingdom, and it is impossible to build sophisticated weapons, not to mention that compared with the Han King who is proficient in smelting, my son does not need to feel guilty, he should be uplifted, and he will fight again in the future." ”
"Father, son?" On Qinling bowed his head in shame.
"A good man doesn't need to be a child's posture, just a little failure, can't be decadent, and fight again, anyone in Tubo can not care about destroying the country, my royal family can't, once the country is destroyed, the clan will be destroyed, you are the most warlike person in the clan, when you cheer up, lead the soldiers and horses to fight again, how sure is the next royal city guard? What needs to be done for the Father? Lu Dongzan encouraged.
On Qinling, he wanted to speak and stopped, Chang'an was defeated, his confidence was frustrated, and his prestige was discredited, and now 300,000 elites were defeated again, and the defeat was unconvincing, and he had no heart, and he wanted to refuse, but when he thought that no one in the clan could suppress the whole army, he couldn't bear to be disappointed by Lu Dongzan, and smiled bitterly.
"Second brother, do you have something to say? It's all family, but it doesn't hurt to say it. Zan Xiruo asked.
On Qinling's desire to speak and stopped, facing Lu Dongzan's inquiring gaze, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "Father, the sons are worried that their prestige will be discredited after successive defeats, and it will be difficult to suppress the army, and they are even more worried that all their thoughts will be controlled by the King of Han, and every move of the King of Han can be guessed in advance, and it will be difficult to win." ”
Lu Dongzan's face changed, and he was silent in thought.
The side hall fell silent again, depressed.
On Qinling's desire to speak and stopped, and finally turned into a sigh, Zan Xi If he didn't expect that his arrogant brother would lose his fighting spirit and become scared and uneasy, how could he command the army?
For generals, there should be undefeated faith and unyielding determination!
Without the will to fight, it is almost useless.
Zan Xiruo couldn't help but look at Lu Dongzan worriedly, the three younger brothers who were still known soldiers had been killed in battle, and if Qinling was not good, there was no one more suitable in the clan, and there were also candidates in the court, but it was not enough to win the trust, in case the soldiers opened the city gate, wouldn't the royal family be waiting to be slaughtered?
Silence, silent silence!
After a while, Non Qinling also realized this problem, cheered up and said: "Father, if there is no more suitable candidate, Erchen can also insist, however, Erchen suggested that the veteran generals of the DPRK and China should be selected to form a staff group, mainly to formulate tactics and assist Erchen in commanding. ”
Zan Xiruo's eyes lit up, and he agreed: "Father, the sons and daughters think that this method is feasible, although the veterans in the court are old and mature, they are experienced, and they can still do it everywhere, and there are veterans, and the defenders in the royal city are also easy to control and command, and even the soldiers of the major nobles can be calmly mobilized." ”
Of course, there is another sentence that if you don't say it, it is to take the veteran as a hostage and force the nobles and royal families of all parties to unite and fight to the death.
Lu Dongzan people are old and refined, how can they not think of it? Looking at the Qin Ling and smiling with satisfaction: "My son's method is feasible, the Wangcheng guards are not trivial, outsiders are not enough to believe, they can only go up to their own people, from now on, appoint you as the marshal of the Wangcheng guards, oversee all military affairs, praise Xiruo, you are responsible for the preparation of grain and grass, weapon scheduling and nobles, the coordination of hundreds of officials, brothers, and its benefits are gold." ”
"Obey!" The brothers replied solemnly.
Next, the three of them secretly investigated the guarding of the royal city, and discussed it for more than an hour.
Coming out of the side hall, the brothers tacitly stopped after a distance side by side, and praised Xiruo solemnly: "Second brother, the three brothers died in battle, this hatred must be avenged, you need to remember, anyone in Tibet can surrender, my royal family can't, once defeated, anyone can live, my royal family can't, in extraordinary times, when the thunderbolt means, those who do not obey the order do not need to scruple, the brother must go all out and do a good job of backing." ”
"Yes, thank you big brother!" On Qinling, he cheered up and responded.
But if he didn't feel confidence and determination in the Qinling, he was very uneasy in his heart, and after thinking about it, he didn't break it, so as not to put more pressure on the Qinling, and sighed secretly.
The brothers tacitly moved forward, struggling.
One is lonely, the other is unwilling.
The back is drawn very long, very long.
