Chapter 134: The Golden Cicada Takes Off the Bottom of the Sleeve (Part 2)(1/2)
If An Wensheng had a "disgusted confidence" about his ability as a stranger before.
At this moment, standing by the cliff and seeing the environment with his own eyes, he suddenly realized that this place was not Chang'an, or even the Western Regions.
This is a snow-capped mountain that is thousands of meters high.
There is only one way down the mountain.
The Tubo people only had to guard the way down the mountain, and even if he and Su Dawei were strangers, they had no chance.
The alien will be tired and exhausted.
What a joke to fight tens of thousands of troops alone?
This cannot be fought.
That's why he suddenly became extremely heavy.
This is the depression that Su Dawei rarely sees in him.
In the past, An Wensheng was incompatible with the second generation of Chang'an nobles. He did not like the government and had no ambitions to be an official and took power.
I like to travel to all walks of life with Yuan Shoucheng and increase my experiences.
But at the same time, he is extremely smart and has a wide vision. He can speak well on all matters in the court, the hearts of the people, or on the military affairs of the Western Regions, ancient and modern times.
This also made him look out of place with many nobles and clans in Chang'an, and was called "Anda Fool", but he didn't care.
Even in the An family, An Wensheng seemed quite unique.
Su Dawei had many things in the past. As long as he asked An Wensheng for questions, he would have solutions and could give Su Dawei some advice.
He has a strategy and a good plan in his mind. He is talking about people like An Wensheng.
Everything can be solved in front of him.
It seemed as if there was nothing difficult in the world, at least nothing could stump An Wensheng.
But at this moment, I stood at the top of Bayankala Peak, overlooking the torches at the foot of the mountain, and looking at the endless Tubo soldiers' tents.
An Wensheng felt depressed.
He finally realized that the dilemma in front of him could not be solved by his vision, talent and ability.
Su Dawei opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to say it for a moment.
In fact, it’s not just An Wensheng, anyone has a sense of powerlessness in such a desperate situation.
"Brother."
Nie Su pulled Su Dawei's clothes from behind and whispered: "Why is Brother An like this? Otherwise, we will trick the Tubo general tomorrow, then arrest him and threaten them."
Before Su Dawei answered, An Wensheng shook his head and said, "It's useless. Even if Lu Dongzan is captured, they will not retreat."
"Why?" Nie Su asked a little dissatisfied.
"Look at that direction."
An Wensheng pointed to the foot of the mountain.
If it is an ordinary person, it would be amazing to be able to see miles away.
But An Wensheng and Nie Su are both strangers, with their eyesight far exceeding ordinary people. After thousands of meters away from the night bonfire, they can still see clearly that direction there is a flag.
It looks like a lion in the snow-capped mountains.
"That was the Grizzly Flag. Only one person in the Tubo army used this flag. That person was Lu Dongzan's son, named Lu Qinling, who was an unparalleled genius in the Tubo army. Although he was not famous now, when Tubo annexed the various tribes of the Snowland region, he fought eastward and fought westward, and had great military achievements. Lu Dongzan was able to take up the position of great prime minister, Lu Qinling accounted for at least half of the credit."
After hearing An Wensheng's words, Su Dawei couldn't help looking at him in surprise.
Unexpectedly, An Wensheng also knew everything about Tubo’s internal affairs, and this knowledge is really rare.
Even many years later, in the Battle of Dafeichuan, the Tang army lacked sufficient understanding and attention to Lu Qinling from Xue Rengui.
If An Wensheng had been with him at that time, the Tang army would not have been defeated in Dafeichuan.
Nie Su was even more dissatisfied: "Since he is Lu Dongzan's son, if we arrest him, wouldn't we be more confident in forcing the Tubo soldiers to retreat?"
The surroundings are quiet.
An Wensheng looked at Nie Su with a strange look, and was silent for a moment before saying: "The national conditions of Tubo are different from those of our Tang Dynasty. If his son is captured, the father may have to save him. However, if his father is captured, Lun Qinling will only attack fiercely at most, shouting to avenge his father."
"How is this... possible?"
Nie Su was stunned and still dissatisfied.
Su Dawei pressed her shoulder and smiled bitterly: "Xiao Su doesn't need to argue, Wen Sheng is right."
An Wensheng is indeed a clear person. What he said is more than just reasonable, it is simply too reasonable.
Not to mention Tubo, in the Tang Dynasty, how did Taizong get the throne?
The Xuanwu Gate Incident, killing his brother and forcing his father, the following is the best.
An Wensheng couldn't say this anyway, but the subtext meant that.
Even after thousands of years, human nature is the same, water flows from top to bottom.
There is a story in later generations that when the Tushizi robbed the tombs in Changsha, Hunan, often father and son went to battle together.
At first, the father went to the tomb and asked his son to guard the cave.
But later, there were many accidents. Whenever there was danger, or if the father gave out the treasure in the cave, the son often left his father and ran away alone.
Later, the father kept watch at the entrance of the cave and his son went to the tomb. As a result, such matters were greatly reduced, and both the father and son were able to be preserved.
Protecting young people is an animal nature.
Leaving the elderly and the weak is an animal's instinct to survive, and there is no place to make any decisions.
Su Dawei had long thought of this.
Otherwise, he had already attacked Lu Dongzan in the hall just now.
If you really do that, the biggest possibility is to anger Lun Qinling and you will not be able to achieve your goal at all.
The game in front of me is still a dead end.
Su Dawei sighed: "Don't think about this for now. I want to talk to Master Baiyan. You are the translator... Forget it, he understands Tang language and doesn't need to translate."
"Brother."
Nie Su followed him with his hands behind his back, turned his head to look at him, and pouted, "I don't understand, you can't even be afraid of danger for my mother, why can't Lun Qinling?"
“People are different…”
Su Dawei said patiently: "I knew one thing: my father was caught by a thief and wanted to force his son to pay the ransom. As a result, his son jumped into the river and swam to the other side, directly reported to the official, and ordered the servants to rescue his father."
"Ah... Then, was his father rescued?"
"In the end, he was rescued, but such actions actually put my father in danger. Who knows whether those thieves will stand up and take the risk of winning the ticket? Well, it's just killing the hostages."
Su Dawei asked Nie Su: "If it were you, when I was caught by a thief, I forced you to hand over your property and power, would you choose to hand over it or report to the official?"
"With Brother A's skills, how could he be caught by a bad guy?"
Nie Su said unconvincedly: "Whoever dares to hurt my brother, I will beat him up, and the monkey head, I will let the monkey head bite him!"
The monkey head riding on Nie Su's shoulder blinked his eyes, suddenly stood up with his chest straight, and patted his chest with both claws, showing his loyalty.
Su Dawei held back his smile and said, "Just give an example, if you encounter such a thing, how do you do it?"
"Of course I'm having sex. For me, nothing is more important than brother." Nie Su blinked inexplicably, his eyes were clean and pure, without any hesitation.
Su Dawei reached out and stroked her head. The little girl had grown taller and was almost at the corner of her mouth.
"So, not everyone is like you...at least when it comes to Qinling, it is definitely not."
A clever commander must never be influenced by emotions.
If Lu Dongzan was caught, what choice would Qinling make?
Things didn't really happen, and it was impossible to confirm, but Su Dawei tended to let Lun Qinling ignore the hostages.
Besides, the best time to capture Lu Dongzan has passed. I didn’t take action in the hall at that time. Now that everyone has left, I wonder what the use of these is.
He shook his head, nodded to the oncoming group of monks of this sect, and said to Master Bayan: "I have something to talk to the master."
...
The Goddess Peak of Bayankala Mountain, halfway up the mountain.
A large tent set up on the mountain temporarily, with wind and snow outside.
This is a unique climate in the snow. Even if it is summer, it is still ice and snow.
Only in a short time every autumn, the ice and snow melt and the climate is pleasant.
In recent years, the climate seems to have improved a lot and the temperature has increased slightly.
Grazing and planting on the grasslands have increased a lot.
But in this season, it is still very bitter and cold on the hillside, which tests people's will.
This is the case for those in the tent, and the Tubo soldiers waiting outside the tent are even more difficult to resist.
