Chapter 49: Desperate Logic
Yesterday, in the battle outside Nongge Valley, Lu Dongzan, who the Tubo people relied on for the last hope, was defeated. The 200,000 troops of Lu Dongzan's troops were either dead or surrendered, and the entire army was wiped out. All the remaining were scattered soldiers who were still fleeing everywhere.
There were not many scattered soldiers, so it was naturally not worth worrying for Li Ke, but they brought back a terrible news to Luoshecheng and the Tubo court-the entire Lu Dongzan army was wiped out.
Before yesterday, the atmosphere in Luoshe City was still good, because Li Ke had withdrawn his troops at that time, and for some time, Gongri Gongzan didn't know why Li Ke withdrew his troops. But for Gongri Gongzan, it was a good thing not to be attacked by the Tang army again, and he felt relieved.
But Gongri Gongzan didn't know that just when he thought Li Ke was withdrawing his troops and he was temporarily safe, Li Ke did a big thing, forcing Lu Dongzan out of Bai Bize, and fought a decisive battle outside Nongge Valley, annihilated the 200,000 troops in one fell swoop.
Lusie City, Potala Palace, and inner hall.
Zanpugongrigongzan lay on the soft stool, unable to lift up any strength on his body, and it looked like an empty shelf that had been drained, full of death.
"Zanpu, if the news brought back by the defeated army is true, I am afraid that the Tang army will attack Luo soon, so please Zanpu will have an idea." In the hall, Bo Ye, the general who was in charge of the Luo army and was responsible for guarding Luo, looked up at Gongri Gongzan and asked.
In fact, Boye asked Gongrigongzan, and at the same time all the Tubo officials in the palace wanted to ask Gongrigongzan. Now the Tang army is close to him. As Tubo Zamp, if he just lay on the soft stool at a loss, how could he fight this battle?
Gongri Gongzan was asked by Bo Ye, and he was completely confused. He was different from Qi Zongnzan, a young corps. He might still know a little about playing with power and tactics, and he knew nothing about military affairs. Otherwise, he would not have known that he had a disagreement with Lu Dongzan, but he was forced to have no choice but to appoint Lu Dongzan.
For Gongri Gongzan, even if Lu Dongzan had his last hope, Gongri Gongzan had already put all his treasures on Lu Dongzan, but the ending that came was like this, which was called Gongri Gongzan giving birth to a sense of inanimate vitality.
Because Lu Dongzan's defeat was not only Lu Dongzan himself, but also lost almost all of Gongri Gongzan's chips in this battle.
There are 200,000 troops, and 200,000 troops. If there are 200,000 troops in hand now, although you cannot retreat to the enemy, you will have a chance to defend yourself. How could you reach this point now? You can only rely on 40,000 troops to guard more logic.
Gongri Gongzan had no confidence in this battle, but after all, Boye asked for instructions, so Gongri Gongzan was not easy to treat him as if he was indifferent and ignored him. Gongri Gongzan looked around the hall and asked back, "The Tang court army is about to attack the city. I wonder who would volunteer to defeat the enemy?"
As soon as Gongri Gongzan said, everyone was silent. Who could have the ability to fight against the main force of the Tang army with a mere 40,000 troops? If there were such people in the Tubo court, this battle would not have been the case.
After a while, Gongri Gongzan looked at the silent hall and sighed quietly, with no slight fluctuations on his face. It was obvious that the reactions of Tubo ministers were not beyond Gongri Gongzan's expectations.
The hall was silent for a moment, but after a while, the great prime minister Chisang Yangdun came out to speak.
Chisang Yangdun said: "Zanpu, now Lu Dongzan is newly defeated, and his troops are losing their troops. Our army's combat strength has been greatly reduced and his morale is even worse. Now it is probably not the time to take the initiative to repel the enemy. The best way now is to defend Luoshecheng, drag down the main army of Tang Ting first, consume their troops, and wait for local troops to reinforce and retreat to the enemy."
Chisang Yangdun's words broke the silence of the hall and gave everyone a step to the hall. However, Gongri Gongzan was heard in his ears, and he felt a little dissatisfied and even anger.
Although Lu Dongzan led the army to the expedition was a choice for Gongri Gongzan to be forced to do anything, it was also an inevitable choice, but the first person to recommend Lu Dongzan to lead the army to defeat the enemy in front of Gongri Gongzan was Chisang Yangdun.
So now in Gongri Gongzan's eyes, Lu Dongzan was able to lead the army because of Chisang Yangdun, so the defeat of the Tubo army outside the Nongge Valley was also due to Chisang Yangdun. Without Chisang Yangdun, Lu Dongzan would not have been able to lead the army, and their 200,000 troops would not have left the city, and would not have been wiped out of the Nongge Valley.
Because of the defeat of Lu Dongzan, Gongri Gongzan was actually a little dissatisfied with Chisang Yangdun, but because of his face, Gongri Gongzan was inconvenient to have an attack in public.
Gongrigongzan's lips were frivolous, and he chuckled with a sarcastic scent, and asked Gongrigongzan: "The great minister's wonderful strategy is to see clearly the current situation in Tubo. I just don't know which army of Dajin wants to call Siru to help, but have you ever had any questions?"
Chisang Yangdun's words were to rescue everyone in the hall, but Gongri Gongzan's words did not leave him any face. Now that Lu Dongzan is defeated, he is about to be surrounded, so the situation is naturally unfavorable, but is the situation in other places going smoothly?
Now the Tang army is divided into four groups to attack Tubo. The four Tubos are all shrouded by the Tang army's offensive. The Tang army is coming in full force, and no one of the four groups has the advantage. Even if some can rely on the terrain, they are just protecting themselves. How can they expect them to divide their troops and rescue them?
As soon as Gongri Gongzan said, Chisang Yangdun's face turned red. What he said was a temporary measure on the scene, but Gongri Gongzan deliberately delved into his words, which really made him unable to get out of Taiwan.
Chisang Yangdun's face was extremely difficult to see when he listened to Gongri Gongzan's words, and his heart felt as uncomfortable as if he was pressed by a big rock.
Chisang Yangdun recommended Lu Dongzan, which was absolutely selfless, but it was indeed beyond his expectations when he was at the moment. He felt more uncomfortable than anyone else, let alone faced the words of Gongri Gongzan.
Chisang Yangdun held it for a long time before he put it in a sentence: "Many people in the Tubo country are willing to share the worries of Zanpu. As long as we can defend the Logic, the other three things are just a matter of time, such as repelling the Tang army, and someone will definitely come to reinforce them. If not, I will die in battle for Zanpu and live and die with Logic."
Since Gongri Gongzan had already said what he had before, he was obviously expressing his dissatisfaction with Chisang Yangdu in public.
In the hall, Nan Congxiang looked at the scene in front of him and had already made plans in his mind. The defeat of Tubo is almost a foregone conclusion, and now the ruler and ministers of Tubo are not in harmony. Isn’t it a good time for him to make great contributions to Li Ke and gain wealth?
