Since the Han Dynasty, the Central Plains regime has not had many methods to appease the nomads. Apart from enfeoffment, which has no practical significance, the only method is marriage. Gar Qinling, who has read Han books, knows this well.
Therefore, in his opinion, proposing a marriage has shown his sincerity for peace. As for whether the princess he can finally marry is Princess Taiping, it is not important. What is important is that he can get a precious breathing time. But at the moment, Li Xian
He even refused the marriage proposal without hesitation. This made Gar Qinling have deep doubts about Li Xian's peace sincerity. He thought for a while that it was difficult to make a decision, and Li Xian no longer agreed.
He urged him, but he just sat on the horse with a solemn expression, quietly waiting for Gar Qinling's final reply.
"Okay, since Your Highness is so heroic, if I don't agree, wouldn't I make fun of the Fang family? As a gentleman..."[]
Gar Qinling's face changed for a long time, but he still didn't dare to start a full-scale war with the Tang Dynasty. He laughed, pretending to be bold and stretched out a hand, pretending to high-five Li Xian and swear an oath of alliance.
"It's hard to chase the horse!"
He knew clearly that Gar Qinling's move had the intention of stretching himself, but Li Xian didn't take it to heart at all. He sneered, took a few steps forward, raised his palm, and greeted him casually.
Gar? Qinling's big shot.
"puff!"
When the two palms collided, the sound was like beating leather. After a muffled sound, the two tall figures were shaken at the same time. A trace of blush instantly appeared on Li Xian's slightly pale face, while Gar Qinling's face was black.
His face turned blue instantly, but neither of them said anything, they raised their palms and clapped them out almost at the same time.
"Bang, bang!"
The two of them exchanged two palms at lightning speed, but when they heard two loud noises, their bodies shook violently. The blush on Li Xian's face became three points thicker, while Gar Qinling's black face
His face was getting bluer and bluer, and it was obvious that no one had taken advantage of this secret contest.
"The covenant is established, you can leave!"
As soon as the three palms passed, Li Xian gave the order to expel the guests with a cold face, without leaving any dignity to Gar Qinling.
"Haha, your highness, take care. I'll see you again someday. I will definitely have a good life to repay your highness for today's kindness."
The city of Garqinling was obviously very deep. He was obviously ignored by Li Xian, but he still didn't get angry. He just smiled and said something that seemed plain but was actually full of threats, and then he immediately turned around.
First, they ran towards the main formation of the Tibetan army. After a while, they heard the trumpet sound of the Tibetan army. The Tibetan army slowly retreated to three miles away from the city. Then they all got on their horses and ran into the firewood.
Deep in the Damu Basin, amidst the billowing smoke and dust, we have gone far away...
"Victory, we are victorious!"
"Long live, long live!"
"The Great Tang Dynasty is mighty! The Great Tang Dynasty is mighty!"
…
The war has ended. Whether it is Li Xian's troops who fought thousands of miles and broke out, or Li Jinxing's Tang troops who were ambushing here, even the Khotan officers and soldiers who participated in the battle couldn't help but shout wildly, and the noise of victory continued.
Soaring into the sky, the entire ruined city was filled with joy.
It's finally over! Old guy, the next time I see you is when you die! Looking at the smoke and dust rolling away from the Tibetan army, Li Xian's heart, which had been tense for many days, finally relaxed. A feeling of fatigue came over him, and he almost
At this point, he collapsed from the horse's back. Fortunately, he was tough by nature and managed to control his dizziness. He slowly rode the horse back to the main formation. His heart was full of emotion and excitement, and he could hardly control himself.
"Your Highness, the end will be too late and you will suffer!"
Seeing Li Xian slowly approaching on horseback, the burly Li Jinxing led several generals to stride in front of Li Xian's horse, bowed to the end, saluted, and greeted him with great respect.
"General Li doesn't need to be polite. It's all because of General Li that Gu Duan escaped from the catastrophe. I dare not forget him."
Seeing that Li Jinxing was giving him such a great gift, Li Xian was slightly startled at first, and then quickly understood that Li Jinxing was expressing his allegiance in a subtle way. He couldn't help but feel secretly happy in his heart, so he quickly got off his horse and grabbed the
He stepped forward, stretched out his hand to hold Li Jinxing's arm, and said something meaningful.
"I don't dare, Your Highness, the Tibetan dog thieves have always been untrustworthy. Although they have retreated now, we must prevent them from returning. It is not suitable to stay here for a long time. I implore Your Highness to leave as soon as possible." Li Jinxing may seem rough and arrogant, but in fact he is a man with a smart mind.
, he understood the meaning of Li Xian's words as soon as he heard it, but he didn't say anything else, he just hurriedly gave words of advice.
"Yes, what General Li said is true. Your Highness should leave as soon as possible."
Before Li Xian could speak, a sturdy young Khotan general suddenly appeared next to him, and he echoed.
"Huh? This general is..."
After Li Xian rushed into the abandoned city, he was busy observing the movements of the Tibetan army, and later he was busy negotiating with Gar Qinling. He really forgot to communicate with the Khotan general. At this time, he saw this
The Khotan general was tall and tall, but he had some love for talents. He didn't care about his abruptness, but smiled and nodded, and asked half of the questions tentatively.
"The last general Yu Chi dared to meet His Royal Highness the King of Zhou. I have heard about His Highness's reputation for a long time. When I met him today, he was indeed a good man. My sister is blessed!" This general who led the Khotan army was the second-in-command of the Khotan leader Wei Chi Fu Xiong.
Ziwei Chi dared, he was a man of bold nature and a person who spoke freely. At this moment, he felt something in his heart, so he spoke very straightforwardly, but Li Xian was stunned when he heard it.
Girl? What kind of girl? What are you doing? Li Xian glanced at Yuchi Gan inexplicably. He really couldn’t figure out what relationship his sister had with him, but he couldn’t ask clearly, so he had no choice.
I had no choice but to bury the question in my heart, nodded casually, stopped talking nonsense, waved my hand, and loudly ordered: "The whole army is setting off, we are going home!"
For the soldiers who had spent the rest of their lives in battle, it was a rare blessing to be able to return home alive. No one would object to Li Xian's order. Countless soldiers cheered in unison and embarked on the journey happily.
The road back home...
"puff……"
Compared with the joy of Tang Yu's coalition forces, the Tibetan army who was also on the way to withdraw could not help but feel a little downcast. However, seeing tens of thousands of troops walking in silence, there was no other sound except the sound of horse hooves.
, an aura of sadness and desolation spread throughout the army. Not only did the ordinary soldiers lose their energy, but most of the generals who followed Gar Qinling were also depressed. This made Gar?
Qin Ling saw this and was anxious in his heart. He opened his mouth and planned to say something to encourage morale. Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened his mouth, the blood and energy he had suppressed surged up, and a large mouthful of blood sprayed out involuntarily.
When you go out, the blood mist is floating, and the scene is extremely horrifying.
"Second brother..."
Gal Zanpo had long noticed that something was wrong with her brother's face, and she had been paying attention silently. When she saw the blood spurting from Gal Qinling's mouth, she couldn't help but become anxious, and rushed forward on her horse.
Holding Gar Qinling's arm, he screamed nervously.
"It's okay. Send the order and set up camp on the spot!"
Gar Qinling had previously fought with Li Xian three times, and on the surface it looked like they were evenly matched. In fact, his meridians had been injured by Li Xian's shock. He was just afraid of affecting the morale of the army, so he suppressed the injury. He originally wanted to wait until the camp.
, and then dealt with it, but unexpectedly it broke out halfway. Seeing this, the generals were in panic, and a feeling of sadness suddenly rolled through their hearts. They shook their heads with a wry smile, issued the order to camp, and sent all the generals away.
Drive away.
"Second brother, are you okay?"
Gar Qinling is not only the backbone of the Tubo Kingdom, but also the backbone of the Gar family. If he comes here, the Tubo Kingdom will inevitably fall into chaos, and there will be no freedom. Gar Zanpo is not very nervous.
All the generals were busy directing the setting up of the camp. Garzanpo came close to her brother and asked in a low voice, her voice full of unconcealable worry.
"It's okay, it's just a minor injury. It's not a problem." Gar Qinling shook his head with a gloomy look. He raised his hand and stopped the words of comfort that his brother was about to say. A bright light flashed in his eyes.
He said in a tone: "Someone underestimated Li Xian's son, which led to this defeat. This son has great ambitions and is very knowledgeable in military strategy. If he ascends the throne, we will be in great trouble in Tubo. We failed to capture him this time."
, it is actually someone’s negligence, and the situation has already happened. If we don’t take action early, the person who will cause chaos in Tibet will definitely be him. I can’t get away from him as a brother. The fourth brother can go to Master Mojia with his brother’s token.
Come help.”
"Second brother, this, this..."
Garzampo was always known for his resourcefulness. As soon as he heard it, he already heard the unfinished words in his brother's words. He couldn't help being frightened and hesitated to accept it.
"Fourth brother, there is no need to worry too much. Today, Tubo has no strength to fight again. The same is true for the Tang Dynasty. The great disaster in its territory will not be over. This dispatch of troops is already reluctant. Within a few years, it will be difficult to do anything. Wait until it is over.
With this breath, I, Tubo, have already settled down, and there is no need to fear his revenge. Only Li Xian cannot stay. I have made up my mind, and my fourth brother must stop trying to persuade me!" Gar Qinling's face twitched a few times, and he bit him.
Biting his lip, he explained in a sinister tone, and finally made a decision in an unquestionable tone.
"Okay, little brother, let's go get ready and leave tonight."
Garzanpo was also extremely afraid of Li Xian's abilities. The reason why she did not agree with her brother's proposal was not because she did not want to get rid of Li Xian, but because she was afraid that it would attract the fierce revenge of the Tang Dynasty. At this time, she met Garqinling.
Having said this, I didn't dare to persuade him any more, so I bowed and agreed.
"The longer the night, the more dreams there will be. Fourth brother, please leave now. Brother Wei is here and there will be no chaos." Gar Qinling shook his head, took out a jade pendant from his waist, and threw it into the hands of Gar Zan Po.
, gave the order firmly.
"Yes, little brother, I obey!"
Now that the matter has come to an end, Po Garzan did not dare to say anything more. She put the jade pendant in her arms, loudly agreed to the promise, and with a wave of her horse, she led several guards and rushed towards Qaidam.
