Many Tibetan cavalry rushed out from both sides, but Luo Tong did not make any move.
It was as if he never cared about their departure.
Get off the horse, walk outside the house where Zhao Chen and others are, hold fists with Zhao Chen and shout: "Sir, all the Tubo cavalry have been captured."
"Thank you!" Zhao Chen's voice sounded.
The door opened with a creak.
Zhao Chen walked out and patted Luo Tong on the shoulder.
"Luo Laosi, couldn't you have come earlier, I was scared to death just now!"
"If I hadn't known Zhao Da's character, I would have really thought that he was going to surrender to Tibet!" Cheng Chumo complained somewhat about Luo Tong's late arrival, which shocked him.
Even now, I am still terrified.
If Luo Tong were just a little longer, this house would probably be destroyed by the Tibetan cavalry.
"Cheng Lao Er, you are not older than me. If you call me Luo Lao Si again, my fists will teach you how to behave!" Luo Tong said with a smile, not being polite to Cheng Chumo.
"Bah, we are scholars, we are not like rough guys like you, we only know how to wield swords and guns." Cheng Chumo felt guilty but refused to admit it.
Luo Tong didn't bother to argue with him, and said to Zhao Chen, "Sir, we have received news that Commander Niu is coming with his army. It is estimated that they are almost here."
…
Outside the town.
Niu Jinda personally led his cavalry and rushed towards the town.
Niu Jinda was extremely worried.
If he had known that today's situation would happen, even if Zhao Chen's legs were broken, he would not be allowed to come here.
A broken leg can still be healed.
My life is gone, but everything is gone!
Niu Jinda regrets it.
But there is no regret medicine in this world.
What he can do is to do his best to lead people to support Zhao Chen.
Just now...
Niu Jinda was a little confused.
In front of him, thousands of cavalry appeared, and they were flying the banner of the Tang Dynasty.
The size and intimidation power of this cavalry are much stronger than those of the cavalry under his command.
Thousands of cavalrymen in black helmets just stood there without saying a word.
Even the war horse beneath him made no sound.
Thousands of people together are like one person.
Niu Jinda used to think that he was good at handling his subordinates, and his cavalry was not considered the most elite cavalry in the Tang Dynasty, but they could be used to support the situation.
But now...
Looking back at his noisy cavalry team, Niu Jinda's heart dropped.
"Xuanjia Army!" Liu Lan came from the rear and saw the thousand-man cavalry team in front, and her pupils shrank suddenly.
Niu Jinda said nothing and nodded slowly.
Naturally, he recognized the Xuan Jia Army.
We also know that as the private army of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the Xuanjia Army would never leave the Emperor's side unless there was a real war.
But now, the Xuanjia Army appeared in front of them.
"The army stationed next to our camp yesterday was the Xuanjia Army!" Niu Jinda asked the general next to him.
"Shuai Niu, there is an army stationed near our army, but our people are not allowed to approach beyond two hundred meters, so..." the general explained.
Niu Jinda nodded.
The actions of the Xuanjia Army are kept strictly confidential to the outside world.
Only the emperor himself or someone holding a mysterious silver rabbit talisman can enter their camp.
Otherwise, no matter what your identity is, if you dare to break into the Xuanjia Army station, it will mean death.
"It seems that Mr. Zhao has been prepared for a long time." Niu Jinda took a long breath and suddenly cursed: "I was scared to death. I will definitely have to clean up after coming back!"
Liu Lan clicked her tongue, but she was still questioning Zhao Chen's true identity.
Xuanjia Army.
He had also heard news before that Zhao Chen could command the Xuanjia Army.
But that's not near Chang'an City either.
The emperor may have trusted him and entrusted him with matters, but the control was still in the emperor's hands.
But now, the Xuanjia Army appeared at the Songzhou border thousands of miles away.
According to the thousands of Xuanjia troops appearing in front of them now, that means that there is a high probability that all three thousand Xuanjia troops were brought over by Zhao Chen.
Over the years, except for Li Jing's two separate expeditions to the Turks, Tutuyuhun led the Xuanjia Army.
Only this time Zhao Chen came here with the Xuanjia Army.
If you continue to say that the emperor has nothing to do with Zhao Chen, Liu Lan will never believe it.
"Niu Shuai, let's go forward, we don't know what's going on in the town!" Liu Lan came back to her senses and said to Niu Jinda.
…
The two exits of Hushi Town were each surrounded by two thousand Xuanjia troops.
All the Tibetan cavalry who tried to escape were captured.
Not even the horse ran away.
In the houses on the side of the street, the Tibetan merchants and the common people were all quarreling at this moment.
Looking at Zhao Chen riding on the back of the bloody horse, he looked at their house in Tubo with an expressionless face.
Everyone felt frightened.
No one knew whether Zhao Chen would suddenly give an order to kill all the Tibetan people.
Even if that were the case, they would not have any ability to resist facing the Tang cavalry with such powerful combat capabilities.
"Your Excellency, we really don't know anything about what happened today."
"We are all ordinary people doing business here. We just want to make a living, so please spare our lives."
"My lord, there were many people talking about you behind your back just now, but the villain did not. The villain is loyal to your lord!"
The Tibetan merchants were really scared to death at this moment.
Dare to say anything to beg for mercy.
He doesn't even hesitate to use other people as a shield.
But Zhao Chen didn't want to kill them.
If people kill too many people, they will easily get angry and feel sad about the death of rabbits and foxes.
It would take a lot of manpower to build the cement road to Luoshou City. It would be a pity to kill them.
"Although the fault of what happened today is not yours, you are gossiping behind my back, which makes me very angry."
"Your Excellency, spare your life, we..." After Zhao Chen said this, some people wanted to beg for mercy.
"If you can help me with something, I will not hold you accountable, and I can even grant you the status of honorary citizens of the Tang Dynasty." Zhao Chen said slowly.
"Honorary citizen of the Tang Dynasty?" Some Tubo people were stunned for a moment.
Not only them, but also Li Ruoshuang had never heard of this thing.
Ninety percent of Xindao was compiled by Zhao Chen first.
This guy's ability to deceive people is so natural, Li Ruoshuang secretly laughed in her heart.
"The so-called honorary citizens of the Tang Dynasty mean that you can get the same rights as the common people of the Tang Dynasty."
"Of course, apart from not being able to study, be an official, and other things, whatever the people of the Tang Dynasty enjoyed, you can also enjoy!"
"For example, you Tubo people have to pay ten times the price for grain, but as honorary citizens of the Tang Dynasty, you can exchange for grain at the original price."
"In addition, as long as you do well, I can report to the emperor so that after three generations, you will have the right to study and take imperial examinations." Zhao Chen's voice sounded slowly.
The Tubo people opposite fell into silence.
They have no special ideas about studying, imperial examinations or anything like that.
In this situation, they just want to keep their family alive.?
