Chapter 545: Wolves
The day after Lu Dongzan settled all the Persian royal family, Cheng Chumo also came here with his troops.
"I finally found your troops. You Tubo is so vast, why are there so few people? You have to find someone to ask for directions for most of the day." Cheng Chumo rode on the horse and said to Lu Dongzan, "What's the current situation?"
"Go back to General." Lu Dongzan said as he met Cheng Chumo, "Tianzhu only has three days to go. They have no movement at the moment. Dashi is still in Persia."
"The Persian royal family is in your hands?"
"Yes, General." Lu Dongzan nodded.
"That's good." Cheng Chumo turned over and dismounted, and asked the army behind him to repair it on the spot. "I'll bring people here first. I'll receive your news. I'll take my troops day and night. I didn't expect that Tianzhu was just a bunch of cowards. You, Lu Dongzan, didn't dare to kill you?"
He also called, and Lu Dongzan was sweating coldly, "General Cheng, do you hope we can order Tubo? If Tianzhu really kills me, I can only escape with the Tubo people."
"Isn't this here? It's scaring you." Cheng Chumo said, putting one hand on Lu Dongzan's shoulder. "The army in the rear has about two days left. This time we will take back Persia. You Tubo people will lead the way. We are not very familiar with this area."
"That's what we should do." Lu Dongzan said.
Cheng Chumo nodded with a smile, "I haven't been fighting for a long time. I have no strength in my body and no place to use it over the years."
"Dare you ask if the person who came is my Tang general?" Several officials had noticed this team of troops and had known that they had received the news that the Chang'an army would come back to Tubo and did not expect it would be so soon.
Listening to the other party's fluent Guanzhong dialect and his official uniform, Cheng Chumo asked, "Are you officials in Guanzhong?"
"That's right!" several officials said, "We were sent by His Majesty to Tubo to recover Tubo County. We have been rebuilding Tubo over the years and are also teaching the Tubo people to speak Guanzhong dialect and teach Guanzhong's knowledge."
Cheng Chumo had no interest in civil servants, so he left these people aside and called his troops to spy on Dashi and Persian military information.
Pei Xingjian also arrived with his troops. The troops who helped Cheng Chumo along the way were very peaceful from the Gobi Desert to Tubo. "What's the situation?"
Lu Dongzan didn't know the general who was only fifteen or sixteen years old in front of him, so he had to repeat what he said to Cheng Chumo.
"Don't worry, the army will arrive within three days." Pei Xingjian said to Lu Dongzan and walked into Cheng Chumo's camp.
Gu Qing and Su Dingfang also entered the Tubo Plateau. Along the way, scouts came to report the current situation in the west of Tubo. Tianzhu blocked the important road between Tubo and Persia, and there was no movement, and the big food was still in Persia.
Su Dingfang said solemnly, "It seems that they know that we must want to retake Persia and defend Persia to wait for us to take action."
Gu Qing looked at Su Dingfang's face very badly and looked up at Lan Tian, "Dashi and Tianzhu are not in the same place?"
"It sounds like this." Su Dingfang thought for a long time, and said, "Send the order! Cheng Chumo and Su Dingfang each brought 10,000 troops to invade the Indians!"
"Yes!" The messenger ran away with his horse.
"Do you have an idea?"
"Yes." Su Dingfang continued, "In fact, it is not difficult to guess the idea of Dashi and Tianzhu. They also know that our army is coming soon. Tianzhu is blocking the important road and not leaving to block us and giving Dashi enough preparation time. Dashi is now sitting in Persia and can wait for us to fight. When we fight, once Tianzhu fights us, Dashi can also support us from the rear. No matter how they fight, they won't suffer any loss."
Gu Qing listened to his words and really didn't understand the ancient military tactics.
Su Dingfang said again, "But they just neglected a military tactic."
"What's the big taboo?"
"You will know later." Su Dingfang said lightly.
"Old Fang, you have changed." Gu Qing looked at him, "You wouldn't have kept you in hiding before."
"Just fix it here." Su Dongfang looked at the open land, "I will join forces with Chumo and the others tomorrow."
Yang Sheng kept hearing Gu Qing and Su Dingfang's words and said to himself, "The Indians can't stop us."
Cheng Chumo received a command from Su Dingfang that night and immediately brought his troops out of the camp, "Where is Lu Dongzan?"
Hearing the shouts, Lu Dongzan came with people, "What's wrong?"
"Bring your troops with you, let's go and meet the Indians first!" Cheng Chumo said with a smile, "I want to see what these Indians look like."
"Come now?" Lu Dongzan was still confused.
"Yes, let's go now!" Cheng Chumo blocked the reins, "Hurry up! Delaying military aircraft must be judged by military law."
Hearing this sentence, Lu Dongzan had to gather his troops.
"Don't mind, either." Pei Xingjian comforted Lu Dongzan, "Brother Chumo, I've been idle these days in Chang'an. I'm thinking about fighting, and I want to kill the camp of Dashi now."
Lu Dongzan nodded, "You were born in a peaceful country. We are not so peaceful around Tubo. We are all evading war. You are fine."
"Because our Tang Dynasty has confidence," Pei Xingjian said, "We are not afraid of war or anyone!"
"It's great to have strong strength." Lu Dongzan called people to gather his warriors.
After gathering good men, Lu Dongzan took Cheng Chumo to the west.
On the other hand, Pei Xingjian also took his people to the west. On the one hand, he wanted to support Cheng Chumo, and on the other hand, he wanted to see the scenery outside the pass. When envoys from various countries came to the Tang Dynasty to pay tribute.
But I never met the Indians at the beginning, I just heard of it.
He rushed to the road overnight again. After passing the plateau, there was another piece of loess. Pei Xingjian followed Cheng Chumo all the way, and the wind was roaring. It was still very cold here at night.
The wolves wandered around, as if watching the soldiers and horses in front of them become prey.
Cheng Chumo and his men stopped at the speed of traveling, and they were about to look at the Indians in a few miles away.
No matter how reckless he was, Cheng Chumo knew that he would take every step and sent a scout to observe the situation around him again.
The howling of wolves came from afar. Pei Xingjian felt awe-inspiringly, always feeling something was wrong with these wolves.
After thinking in his heart, Pei Xingjian said again, "Transfer to General Cheng, be careful. What is wrong here, I am afraid there will be an ambush."
"Yes!" The soldiers immediately went to pass the order.
