In the north, Li Jing had to send troops ahead of Luo Zhang, and he led many more troops and horses than Luo Zhang. There was no way, because the Western Turks in the north had much more troops than Tubo.

What's even more frightening is that the speed of the Western Turks' advance forced Li Jing to rush to Dingyuan City, which was the gateway between the Eastern Turks and the Tang Dynasty.

Before the Eastern Turks were destroyed, they had been fighting here for countless years. I originally thought that this city would no longer be garrisoned, but today, there will be another war.

Li Jing also brought ten artillery pieces, which were given to him by Luo Zhang. When he learned that he could have ten artillery pieces, Li Jing smiled so hard that he couldn't close his mouth.

What a joke, like Cheng Yaojin, he had seen the power of artillery. With artillery here, the defense of Dingyuan City would definitely not be a problem.

Of course, Li Jing also encountered the same problem as Luo Zhang, that is, it was difficult to transport artillery. Luo Zhang, a good man, went to the end and installed two wheels on it, which made Li Jing's artillery less difficult to transport.

The delivery speed was just like Luo Zhang, not much faster. Li Jing couldn't wait, so he had to take the first step and let Li Ji be responsible for escorting these artillery.

While marching towards Yumen Pass, Luo Zhang thought about various possibilities and dangers he would encounter.

The biggest danger is that Yumen Pass will be breached before they reach it. What will they do then?

Of course, this is an assumption.

Just like another hypothesis, if Tibet is willing to give way to the Western Turks and let them attack Yumen Pass, Yumen Pass may have been lost before Luo Zhang can rescue them.

The reason why it is said to be hypothetical is because although Tibet cooperates with the Western Turks, they do not invade each other and fight each other. Everyone knows the other's intentions, and they cannot take action. They can only maintain this balance.

No matter whether the Western Turks are weak or the Tibetans are weak, I am afraid that the other will turn around and attack them.

Cooperation? That is just a verbal agreement. In the face of interests, it is normal to break one's promise.

Of course, both the Western Turks and Tibet are very powerful at the moment, so there is no question of them turning against each other.

As for giving way, Tibet will never give way unless it seeks death.

Therefore, Luo Zhang's first assumption is not valid.

As for the second hypothesis, that is that some innately powerful people intervened in this war and killed the defenders of Yumen Pass. Naturally, Yumen Pass was defeated by the Tubo army.

However, I have not received any such news now. I am afraid that Tubo's innate masters are either not in the army, or they don't bother to deal with a mortal.

Seeing that Luo Zhang had been deep in thought, Cheng Yaojin couldn't say a word to him, so in the end he could only keep silent and hurry up.

This time, Luo Zhang tied Su Dingfang to his team. He had been letting him stay in Liu Renyuan's fleet for training. After these days, the originally young and somewhat shy young man was no longer young.

He is also very generous when talking to others.

I have to say that the army is a big dye vat, and if you throw it in, it will change you a lot.

Su Dingfang is like this, and he has changed a lot now.

Cheng Yaojin was embarrassed to talk to Luo Zhang, but Su Dingfang didn't think much about it.

While riding his horse and whipping his whip, he shouted to Luo Zhang in front: "Sir, do you think the Western Turks will take over our city first, or the Tubo people will take over our city first?"

If he hadn't been riding a horse, Luo Zhang would have whipped Su Dingfang, so that Su Dingfang could ask such silly questions!

Shaking his head slightly, Luo Zhang was too lazy to talk to this boy. He had important things to do, so how could he waste this time.

In the north, there is still fifty miles away from Dingyuan City, where Li Jing's army has set up camp.

It wasn't that I didn't want to go to the city to rest, but it was getting too late and it was not safe to march in a hurry at night, so I chose to camp on the spot!

At this time, Li Jing also received a lot of letters. According to the news sent back, the speed of the Western Turks' attack was incredibly fast. Not only was it powerful, but there were also many people who wanted to take advantage of it.

Because of this, many territories fell very quickly, without giving the Tang army time to react. Many Tang armies were wiped out by the Western Turks!
