Chapter 228 Waiting for your return (3)

There was hail all over the world, and Gu Qing sat next to Yang Sheng and ate lion meat with him, his ears were filled with the sound of hail smashing.

Gu Qing bit the meat and drank a sip of barley wine, "You said it should be autumn when you go back..."

Yang Sheng nodded, "Do you really ignore the reinforcements?"

Cheng Chumo also sat with the two of them and ate lion meat. "I asked for help a month ago. If reinforcements had arrived long ago before the big food. How could it have arrived now? Just think about the tricks here."

"That's right." Yang Sheng nodded.

The three of them chewed the meat. The hail stopped in less than half an hour, and it started to rain again in the gloomy sky.

"We are reinforcements from Chang'an." Changsun Kong shouted to the fortress, "I am Changsun Kong, the Minister of War, please open the door! We need to repair it."

The irritable Cheng Chumo put down the roasted lion's legs, walked to the fortress and poked his head out and shouted, "Are you annoying? Let's say it again, I'll tear your mouth."

Changsun Kong was riding on the horse and couldn't speak for a while.

Cheng Chumo cursed and came back, "Huh? Where is my lion's legs!"

Gu Qing and Yang Sheng left with a huge lion's legs. Cheng Chumo looked up and watched the two guys walk away step by step, getting further and further.

The weather suddenly became colder. Su Dingfang looked at the Great Snow Mountains surrounded by mist in the distance. The cold wind blew and sneezed. He looked up and saw that the sky was pressing very low.

Gu Qing came to Su Dingfang and handed the lion's legs, "Take it and eat it."

"Thank you." Su Dingfang took the lion meat and looked at Gu Qing with vigilance around him, "What's wrong?"

Seeing that Cheng Chumo did not catch up, Gu Qing smiled and said, "It's okay, let's eat."

"Oh." Su Dingfang ate as if nothing had happened, "The news should come from the court."

"Yes!" Gu Qing also nodded, "Why do you think the trust between people is so fragile?"

"What?" Su Dingfang was puzzled.

"Look," Gu Qing recalled, "In the past, the envoys from India came to the Tang Dynasty to ask for relatives. Not to mention whether they were here to raise their heads. At the beginning, they couldn't say that they could get involved in the war between the Tang Dynasty. Now they are here to help Tubo fight us."

Su Dingfang was still confused, and he didn't know about some things in the court.

Gu Qing sighed, "Humans are such complex animals. There was a thing called making friends in the same city. There were all beauties there, all kinds of charm. Who knows if they were in women's clothing."

Su Dingfang became increasingly unable to understand.

Tang Xuanzang and Bian Ji were reciting scriptures. Gu Qing walked into the Potala Palace. Yuchi Gong was sorting out the list of soldiers who died in battle, "General Yuchi, I will help you."

"That's right." Yuchi Gong also said, "You go to the military list to get it. I have to proofread it to see if there is anything missing."

Gu Qing found the military book from the messy file and handed it to Yuchi Gong.

"These soldiers are so miserable. They are all ordinary people. In order to give their families a bite of food, they fight hard to exchange for some military merits." Yuchi Gong held a brush and couldn't write for a long time, and said, "No of these heroes who died in battle can be missed."

Gu Qing sat cross-legged at the table and helped Yuchi Gong organize a large number of files and military books, "The reinforcements are here, right outside."

"I know." Yuchi Gong began to proofread the military list, "Don't worry, I will help you with this matter.

Speaking of this, Yuchi Gong looked at Gu Qing meaningfully, "Although these years old, I ran back and forth from Yanmen Pass to Hexi Corridor, I know a little about the matter in the court. The leader Changsun Kong is the side branch of the Changsun family. The bad debt between you and Changsun Wuji, plus the reinforcements that have come here for a long time, I can naturally understand the tricks."

"General's clarification." Gu Qing smiled embarrassedly.

Wang Jin arranged everything about the Firearm Bureau. This battle almost used up the firearms and blocked a large group of Tubo people. With the assistance of Yuchi Gong's army, whoever dared to escape was killed immediately was killed. Wang Jin could not rub a little sand in his eyes as a firearm.

A few days later, news came from the court that the army could finally return to Chang'an.

After the army sorted out, they carried Songzan Gampo and Lu Dongzan to Chang'an. Changsun Kong watched the army leave from his eyes and ignored him at all.

"When I arrive in Chang'an, I will definitely impeach you!" Changsun Kong said to himself, leading his army to follow Yuchi Gong's army from afar.

The residents of Tubo along the way were very afraid of this Tang army. The battle at the Potala Palace shocked the entire Tubo. In their eyes, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were all devils who killed people without blinking, and some people also had awe of this Tang army. This is what a strong country should look like.

Going all the way to Chang'an, Wang Jin asked Gu Qing, "Mr. Gu, our people have been taking care of the oil well. How to deal with this oil well in the future."

Thinking about it, Gu Qing asked again, "Who is watching the Hexi Corridor now?"

"The people in the army are watching, but there are hundreds of people who are watching the oil wells who are from our Firearms Bureau." Wang Jin continued, "Don't worry, Mr. Gu, no one else will know the method of refining black oil."

"Wang Jin, we don't have to hide it. You are Your Majesty's confidant! The Firearms Bureau is the sharpest sword in Your Majesty's hand, and it is also what Your Majesty values ​​the most." Gu Qing said slowly while riding a horse, "You should do what you should do, and it's redundant to ask me. I'm just teaching you the method of making firearms."

"There is only Marquis Gu in the Firearms Bureau." Wang Jin smiled, and this smile was exactly the same as Wang Qin's smile.

"Let's go back to Chang'an first." Gu Qing said as he rode his horse.

Yuchi Gong led his army to the lake again to renovate the army. This lake was the lake that Gu Qing had passed by before going to the Potala Palace.

The army stopped, and Cheng Chumo came to the lake to drink the clear lake water and saw a pile of strange stones on the side.

"What is this?" Cheng Chumo said as he was about to kick the small stone pile.

"Hey!" Gu Qing stopped him, "Do less moral."

Cheng Chu looked at Gu Qing suspiciously. Yang Sheng walked over and took off his shirt, "Tonight is still a fish feast."

"Okay!" Hearing the fish feast, Cheng Chumo jumped into the lake with a thud.

At dusk, in the dark sky, bonfires were lit in the army. The Tubo people who were jailed saw grilled fish delivered to them for food, and almost fought with the Tang army.

Songtsen Gampo and Lu Dongzan sat together, looking at the two grilled fish in front of them that they couldn't taste it, so they had to eat the roasted potatoes beside them.

"Don't you eat it?" A soldier came and saw Songzan Gampo and Lu Dongzan not eating fish.

Songtsen Gampo, “…”

Lu Dongzan, “…”
