The three hundred and fortieth chapters remove the troubles
Outside Luoxue City, Yang Fan was sitting on a horse with his helmet on his head. Although thousands of troops behind him remained motionless, a terrifying and murderous aura rose into the sky.
Just when Yang Fan wanted to order the soldiers to attack Luoxe City, he saw a Tibetan guard slowly protruding from the city wall holding a white flag, and then waved it vigorously a few times, which was obviously a signal of surrender!
This surprised everyone.
However, Yang Fan was happy to be able to avoid a killing.
The thousands of Tang troops behind Yang Fan were even more arrogant, and instantly let out an earth-shattering roar. Waves of sound surged into the sky, enough to change the color of the situation.
No wonder the soldiers were so excited. It would be of extraordinary significance if they could capture the Tibetan capital without a single blow.
This is a great way to scare the barbarians!
After a while, the city gate slowly opened, and Gongri Gongzan, dressed in royal robes, walked out of the city gate with the support of all the Tubo courtiers.
Yang Fan lifted the reins, the horse slowly took a few steps forward, and shouted loudly: "Who are you waiting for? Please tell me your name first!"
Looking at the neat military appearance in front of him, Gongri Gongzan was immediately frightened, and then frightened by Yang Fan's voice, he was even more at a loss.
However, Zharfurenli and Jiumo Tuhamul looked at each other, and seemed to have reached some kind of consensus. They led a group of Tubo courtiers to Yang Fan and clasped their fists a few feet away and said loudly:
"Songtsan Gampo recklessly led troops to invade the Tang Dynasty, and his crime was serious... Now that Songtsan Gampo has been arrested, he really deserves it."
"Now, Zarfurili, Jiumo and Tuhamult have led the entire city's soldiers and civilians to surrender to the Tang Dynasty. I hope the general will forgive us for the act of coercion and not to implicate too many people. All the blame for the crime should be borne by Songtsen Gampo and his son."
bear!"
Upon hearing this, Gongri Gongzan looked panicked, and the ministers obviously regarded their father and son as scapegoats.
Gongri Gongzan's bright red face suddenly turned pale, his short legs were trembling, and he looked at Yang Fan pitifully.
If it weren't for the maid supporting him, he might have collapsed on the ground. After all, Gongri Gongzan is only a seven-year-old child?
Yang Fan sat on the horse and stood still, watching all this with cold eyes. These ministers were really shameless.
They actually put all the blame away. They are just a bunch of clowns. They deserve to die.
Then I felt a little relieved!
Today's Tubo is still a slave society, and these ministers are actually a group of slave owners.
Now that Songtsan Gampo has been captured, it is natural that he has no sense of belonging to Tibet.
However, these people are selfish and will definitely become a disaster if they remain.
Recall that Li Jing destroyed the Eastern Turks but did not eradicate them. Soon the Turkic nobles moved westward and merged with the nomadic people outside the Great Wall to form the current Western Turks. Their power is no less than that of the original Eastern Turks. They are simply raising tigers to create trouble.
Having learned from the past, Yang Fan certainly would not allow this situation to happen again in Tubo.
I saw a cold light flash in Yang Fan's eyes, and a trace of red light flashed across his eyes.
If we want to bring Tubo back to life, we can only kill all these slave owners.
So what if I get a reputation?
Thinking of this, Yang Fan shouted in a deep voice: "Songtsen Gampo led his troops to invade the Tang Dynasty, of course he should be severely punished, but you should not be leniently punished for helping the tyrants to commit crimes. I hope that you will surrender voluntarily, and I will no longer carry out any murderous actions, nor will I be held accountable.
The responsibility of the Tubo people."
"However, all ministers of the third rank and above will be put to death immediately. If the other officials do evil deeds, they will be beheaded on a certain day in public. If they resist, they will be shot without mercy!"
As soon as these words came out, the fate of the Tubo courtiers was decided. Zharfengli and others immediately collapsed to the ground and cried: "We are surrendered people, you can't do this to us..."
They never expected that Yang Fan would be so ruthless and take the initiative to open the door to surrender but still not escape death.
Originally, I wanted to wait until the Tang army left so that they could continue to dominate.
Seeing Zharfurili and others, they were so frightened that they peed. The yellow and white things were all over the floor, and they knelt on the ground and kept begging for mercy...
Yang Fan was unmoved at all. With a wave of his hand, the army behind him took a sudden step forward.
Several hundred guardsmen soon surrounded a group of civil servants and generals at the gate of the city.
The Zuoying soldiers quickly rushed into the city and guarded all the main passages.
Now Yang Fan's prestige has been deeply rooted in the hearts of all soldiers. Even if it is against the rules to kill prisoners on the spot, they will still carry out the order without hesitation.
Just waiting for Yang Fan's order, the heads of these Tibetan ministers fell to the ground.
…
At this moment, there was a burst of dust on the official road in the distance, and a large black flag embroidered with the word "Hou" could be faintly seen. It was obvious that Hou Junji's army had arrived.
Because the vanguard came in a hurry, they were not far away from Yang Fan in the blink of an eye.
After a closer look, it turned out to be Duan Zan, the captain of the Zuowei School. He dismounted from his horse and said loudly:
"Frontguard General Yang Fan listens to the order. The commander-in-chief has the order. The supervisory and operational headquarters are not allowed to enter Luoche City at will. All matters can only be handled after the commander-in-chief arrives. Violation of this will be subject to military law!"
These words immediately made Yang Fan frown, feeling a little hesitant in his heart.
If we kill these Tibetan ministers again, we will be suspected of disobeying military orders!
But once we let this group of shameless Tubo people go, there will definitely be endless troubles.
Judging from the nature of the Tang army towards prisoners, those who surrender will almost never be executed. Isn’t this the danger of raising a tiger?
Just as Yang Fan was in a tangle, Zarfengli and others were overjoyed and hurriedly called out: "Please help me, general. We sincerely surrender, but we are going to be beheaded. Doesn't it insult the name of the Tang Dynasty's benevolence and righteousness?"
The ministers were like drowning people grasping at straws, how could they let go of the chance to survive!
Seeing Zharfurili, Jiumo, Tuhamule and others covered in filth, Duan Zan covered his nose and secretly despised them.
It can be seen from the official uniforms that these people must be Tubo court officials.
Although he didn't have a good impression of these people, Duan Zan would find ways to oppose anything Yang Fan did, so he said proudly:
"Hmph, barbarians are barbarians, can't they even understand people's words? Our captain has just given the commander-in-chief's order. Whether you live or die is up to the commander-in-chief. No one else has the right to interfere..." Hearing this, Zarfuren
Li and others were immediately overjoyed. They didn't care about Duan Zan's insult at all. They quickly stood up and thanked: "Thank you, General, for being alive!"
In their opinion, as long as they are not killed immediately by the demon Yang Fan, they have a chance to survive.
As the head coach of the Tang Army, Hou Junji certainly conducted careful research.
Although Hou Junji was a famous general in the Tang Dynasty and had very good military talents, he had a big weakness, that is, Hou Junji was very utilitarian.
As long as you send some money as a bribe, they will be safe and sound.
Seeing the expressions of these people who were sure they could escape and ascend to heaven, Yang Fan was secretly worried.
Once the Chinese army led by Hou Junji takes over the prisoners, he will never have the chance to kill these people.
Besides, if I have the merit of destroying the country, who would dare to do anything to me if I kill a few prisoners?
Thinking of this, Yang Fan no longer hesitated, and pressed down with his raised hand.
Afterwards, Zarfrenli and others screamed without making a sound, their heads were missing, and dozens of heads were chopped off by soldiers with a knife. They rolled several times on the ground and lay on their backs, dying with their eyes open.
The headless torso fell to the ground, blood spurting out from the severed head.
Roar……
The soldiers screamed when they saw the blood.
Then only screams were heard, and dozens of heads rolled to the ground.
Of course, it also includes Zarfurenli, Jiumo Tuhamul and others.
Although the heads of Zarfrenli and others had been separated from their trunks, their eyes were wide open!
Maybe even to the day of death, I can't believe that Yang Fan actually dared to disobey military orders and kill them.
Duan Zan, who was still looking proud at first, couldn't believe his eyes, and looked at the head of Deputy Prime Minister Zalfuri that rolled to his feet.
At this time, the surprised expression on the man's head seemed to be mocking his arrogance just now.
Duan Zan soon came to his senses, blushed and said angrily: "Yang Fan, you dare to ignore the commander's military orders. It's really abominable. Do you want to rebel?"
Yang Fan spread his hands, held his breath and said, "There is no basis for what you say. How do I know if you are pretending to pass the commander's military order?"
Seeing Yang Fan's strong argument almost made Duan Zan so angry that he vomited blood...
However, with Duan Zan's position, there was absolutely nothing he could do against Yang Fan, so he had no choice but to bite his tongue and said angrily:
"Hmph, Yang Fan, let's see how long you can keep calm? I will truthfully report your crime to the commander-in-chief, and let's see how you defend yourself!"
*******
When Hou Jun gathered his generals and arrived late, the scene in front of him made him dumbfounded!
In addition to the blood on the ground at the city gate, the most eye-catching thing was the trembling Tibetan little Zan Pugongrigongzan and the courtiers who were kneeling on the ground.
Obviously, Luoche City has no more battles to fight!
Thinking that Hou Junji led an army of tens of thousands and trudged thousands of miles, but now he got no credit at all, how could he not feel depressed?
It turned out that since hearing the Tibetan army blowing the horn for an all-out attack yesterday, Hou Junji had made arrangements with confidence.
I originally expected that Yang Fan's troops would be destroyed by Gar Qinling Zanzhuo, and he would be able to lead the army to settle the situation.
However, things went against expectations. Before dawn, the scouts found out the news that the tens of thousands of Tibetan troops led by Gar Qinling Zandhuo were actually defeated by Yang Fan's thousands of soldiers.
Is there anything more ridiculous than this?
So Hou Junji had no choice but to have the army set up camp and rush towards Luoche City in a hurry.
Originally, I wanted Duan Zan to come and send a message so that I could take credit for capturing the Tubo capital, but now it seems that I made a mistake!
But then listening to Duan Zan's endless complaints to him, Hou Junji felt happy. He didn't expect that Yang Fan would make such a stupid move. It seemed that this was an opportunity for him.
Then his face sank, and Hou Junji shouted loudly: "Hou Zhongyi, since the Tibetan people have surrendered, why do they still need to kill you? If you don't give an explanation, I will definitely act in accordance with military law."
"General, I have informed you that all the people I killed were those who helped the tyranny and committed the most heinous crimes. Moreover, Captain Duan did not have the command of the commander-in-chief just now. How do you know that he did not pass the military order in vain?"
Although he was a little aggrieved, Yang Fan could only quickly report back, who made Hou Junji the general manager of the march?
At this time, Liu Lan, the deputy general manager of the march who came with him, also helped: "Commander, this is not the time to hold people accountable. Now you should consider how to deal with other people."
Looking at Liu Lan, who was always the opposite of him, Hou Junji's face was so gloomy that he was almost dripping with tears.
Of course he also knew that Yang Fan couldn't be dealt with for just such a reason.
He was just a little angry!
In Hou Junji's view, if he could monopolize the power of destroying a country, who else in the Manchu Dynasty would be able to compare with him from now on?
Even the military god Li Jing is nothing more than this, right?
This time, the territory was expanded to thousands of miles. This was a great achievement, but Yang Fan was allowed to monopolize it. How could he not be very angry?
But there was nothing I could do at this time, so I could only snort coldly and said: "In that case, let's record this for now!"
As he spoke, he waved his hand and shouted to the army behind him: "The whole army will follow my commander into the city!"
Upon hearing this order, Hou Jun's troops immediately cheered and rushed to the city gate, like a torrent.
Yang Fan couldn't help but be shocked. He had already controlled the main traffic arteries, and the battle flag of the Tang Dynasty had been planted on the city wall. Hou Junji had obviously seen it too.
Now that Hou Junji led his army into the city, wouldn't it cause panic? The reason why Yang Fan took the risk to kill these Tibetan ministers was to educate the Tibetan people.
If a prince of a generation gathers his troops and marches into the city, won't everything he has done be in vain?
Thinking of this, Yang Fan quickly came to Hou Junji and shouted: Commander, Luoche City has been controlled by the Supervision and Operation Department, there is no need for a large army to enter the city. Besides, if tens of thousands of troops enter the city together, it will inevitably cause panic among the Tubo people."
"Furthermore, the military personnel are complex. If military regulations are ignored and those who commit crimes cannot be restrained, won't it cause riots?"
Hou Junji reined in his horse and stopped, turned to stare at Yang Fan and smiled coldly: "They are just barbarians. They can only be compared to me, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty. So what if it causes panic? I am still afraid of this. Besides, I am
You don’t intend to restrain them?”
What's going on? uuReading www.uukanshu.com Yang Fan was stunned.
Before Yang Fan could react, Hou Junji continued: "The army went on an expedition to Tibet and traveled thousands of miles across mountains and rivers. What do you want? Isn't it just merit and money? You have earned merit! It is impossible for my soldiers to be empty-handed, right?
?”
"The reason why the Tang Dynasty's army is invincible is because of its high morale. If you go back empty-handed, your morale will inevitably be low. Morale is the most important thing for an army..."
"They followed me and charged with their lives. I can't let you down. Since there is no merit to be gained, I have to get some other benefits for you. If Tubo dares to invade the Tang Dynasty, they will have to suffer the consequences."
Hou Junji's words were fierce and disdainful.
At first glance, this kid Yang Fan is not good at leading troops. He was able to achieve such feats just because of good luck.
As a general, if you don't benefit your soldiers, who will be willing to sacrifice their lives for you?
Yang Fan was dumbfounded by these words, but he found himself speechless.
Only then did he remember that in ancient battles, in addition to meritorious service, money was also an indispensable part of the soldiers. As long as they were victorious, they would not rob them.
I remember that during Li Jing's time with the Turks, after his victory, he allowed his soldiers to rob money.
Soldiers, how can this be the case?
Although the commander should seek benefits for his subordinates, leading the troops to victory is a benefit, so that everyone can gain military merit.
You can get promoted and make a fortune...
Tax exemptions are available...
Then it is also a benefit to plunder the enemy city after capturing it...
But I always feel like something is wrong!
This is completely contrary to Yang Fan’s world view!
