Sitayu looked at the secret guard in front of him and said word by word: "Say it again!"
The secret guard was trembling, feeling very regretful.
From Yang Zaiwei, Mi Sa and other five commanders down, most of the elite secret guards abandoned the dark side and surrendered to Wang Zanpu...
But there are always some people who come back and tell the news.
Either out of loyalty or out of speculation, but no matter what their intentions were, when they detailed what happened in front of the valley, the shocking news made the Gar brothers break their guard.
Zan Xiruodu closed his eyes, his cheeks twitched violently, and he waved his hand: "Detain them all!"
The secret guard was led away with a cry of sorrow: "Big talk! We are loyal! We are loyal!"
Sitayu roared angrily at first, and then became dumbfounded. In less than a day, he became a polished commander?
But seeing these loyal men being dragged out, Sitayu couldn't help but said: "Brother, they should be used to reorganize the divine guard now, how can we treat them like this?"
Zan Xiruo said coldly: "Reorganize the divine guards? Do you still dare to trust this group of people? Whether it is these people who came back to report the news, or the secret spies in Tuyuhun and Tang Kingdom, they may defect at any time! This is not that I am paranoid, but it is normal.
Everyone knows how to choose!”
Wearing a red robe on one side, he is a high-class Gui citizen, a personal guard of Zanpu, and his descendants are also prosperous.
Wearing a black robe on one side, he is a low-class commoner, a secret spy and a killer, and his descendants will not see the light of day.
Any fool knows how to choose.
Zan Xiruo waved her hand: "Don't take chances anymore, Divine Guard... Divine Guard is gone! It's my fault that I can't forgive my father! He has only been away for five years!"
Sitayu's body swayed, her face turned ashen, and Zanpo was also confused and panicked: "Brother, what should we do now?"
Zan Xiruo calmed down and asked: "How many days are there for the second brother's army to travel from here?"
The two brothers looked at each other and said sadly: "I don't know..."
Zan Xiruo became calmer and calmer, thought for a while and said: "Go and drive away those monks from Dalun Temple first!"
Zanpo's expression changed: "Eldest brother, do you think those monks will also fall in love with Zanpo?"
Zan Xiruo shook his head: "I don't know, but now I don't trust anyone except the family's private soldiers!"
Sitayu showed fear: "But without the monks, if Zanpu sends people to come to get us, how can we resist it?"
Zan Xiruo said: "Zanpu now has two thousand imperial guards under his command. If we really want to take action, can a hundred monks stop us? Don't worry, as long as the second brother still has military power, Zanpu will not dare to touch us! Now on the contrary
We should be worried about the Bon believers. That group of fanatics has a great hatred for Buddhism and is impulsive and crazy. If they attack, they will be accidentally injured."
Sitayu still couldn't accept it: "There are only dozens of private guards left in the house. Are we trying to show weakness?"
Zan Xiruo said in a deep voice: "This is not to show weakness, we are indeed very weak now. Not only the divine guards were lost this time, but also the two Qianhu guards from Guri and Sanan, as well as the private guards stationed in Bude Valley.
They were all wiped out by Sun Boru, it was so traumatic! The remaining people cannot guarantee their loyalty, we have lost control of Wei Ru..."
Sitayu's body began to tremble, and Zanpo's face turned pale.
Zan Xiruo waved his hand: "Why are you so frustrated? You haven't lost yet!"
"For so many years, my father and I have governed this country. I would like to see how Zamp distributes the interests of various ministries and mediates conflicts between various parties after he takes power!"
"The Divine Guard is a powerful tool for monitoring the ministers. I don't believe Zamp can hold it back! The Divine Guard's status is very different now. Are you willing to be a secret spy again?"
"And Tang Ren!"
Speaking of this, Zan Xiruo gritted his teeth: "Don't look at them now firmly standing on Zanpu's side. They are doing it to suppress our clan and stir up trouble. When Zanpu really takes power, they will definitely change their attitude. Otherwise, they will change their attitude."
Are our neighboring countries really friendly and come to help me in Tibet?"
"The blood feud of the Battle of Dafeichuan, the old hatred of annexing Tuyuhun, the Tang people will never allow me to grow Tubo!"
"The same is true for Sun Poru. Now they are unanimously against me. When our clan's glory fades, they will start fighting again."
"Our brothers are dormant now. As long as we ensure that the second brother has military power, we will have a chance to make a comeback!"
The two brothers recovered emotionally and became sincerely convinced: "Brother is wise!"
Zan Xiruo straightened up and said in a sonorous tone: "As long as I am here, my Gar family cannot fail. You all act on your own. At this time, you must not panic at all!"
Watching the two brothers take the order and leave, Zan Xiruo's face instantly turned blue and white, she covered her mouth and coughed violently: "Cough! Cough! Cough! Ugh!"
After finally stopping his coughing, Zan Xiruo dismissed the maid. Looking at the shocking color of blood on his hands, he collapsed on the bed. Unknown to him, tears were streaming down his face.
…
"The eagle flew over again!"
In the midst of the Tubo army, Qin Ling looked at the sky, with fondness on his eyebrows, and asked around him: "Which one of you can train such a sacred eagle?"
Looking left and right at the eagle flying more and more arrogantly, he closed his mouth.
Let alone training, I haven’t even heard of it!
Gongren was equally astonished and secretly made up his mind to ask Hu Shang to go to the Western Regions to find a master of eagle training and train such a magnificent eagle.
However, this relaxed mood soon disappeared with the scout's message.
In Gong Ren's eyes, Qin Ling's expression became more solemn than ever before, and he immediately ordered his guards to hold shields and protect the surrounding area tightly.
Then he sat upright on the horse, his expression changing, as if he was weighing the pros and cons.
In Yugihito's impression, his father had always acted resolutely and decisively, and it was the first time that he had thought about it for such a long time.
He couldn't help but stepped forward and asked: "Father, what happened?"
Qin Ling's eyes turned around: "You came just in time. I led the troops to attack the royal city at this time, killed Zanpu, and elected my eldest brother as king. What do you think?"
Gongren suddenly froze and stammered: "This...this..."
Qin Ling looked at his son's expression and sighed slightly: "It really doesn't work. Our clan's prestige has not yet reached the point where we can directly raise an army."
Yugihito asked: "Father, what happened?"
Qin Ling said calmly: "Zanpu led Sun Poru's elite soldiers and bloodbathed Wei Ru's three thousand-household camps. All the divine guards rebelled. If I didn't have these 100,000 elite soldiers behind me, the entire clan would not be able to survive!"
Yugihito was immediately stunned.
As a teenager, he simply could not withstand the blow caused by such drastic changes.
Qin Ling ignored his son, summoned several lieutenants to discuss the matter, passed the orders down layer by layer, and then called Blenzan Blade over.
After recounting the matter, Qin Ling said seriously: "Fifth brother, the eldest brother compared you to a phoenix chick. Now that the family is in trouble, our retreat will depend on you!"
When Brenzan heard what happened in the royal city, he couldn't believe it for a moment.
Fortunately, practice makes perfect, and his ability to withstand blows was much stronger than that of his nephew. He suppressed his panic and maintained his composure on the surface: "Please give me your instructions, second brother!"
Qin Ling admired the demeanor of a general who remained unchanged despite the collapse of Mount Tai: "I will give you 40,000 elite soldiers to enter Tuyuhun to protect this place from the Tang army!"
Brenzan was puzzled: "Second brother, you didn't divide your troops before, why did you decide to divide your troops now?"
Qin Ling said calmly: "In my hands, there is no difference between one hundred thousand and sixty thousand. Even if there are only thirty thousand soldiers, we can defeat Zanpu. On the contrary, your burden will be heavier. If our clan cannot survive in Tubo, Tuyuhun is the only one."
A way out!"
Brenzan frowned: "But even if I have 40,000 elite soldiers, if the Tang people attack with their troops, it will be difficult to resist them!"
Qin Ling said: "You don't need to resist the Tang army head-on. You only need to use the local Qiang people in Tuyuhun to carry out guerrilla harassment and make the Tang people exhausted! If the Tang army gathers, retreat quickly. It doesn't matter even if the land in Qinghai is occupied by the Tang people. You must always use
My strengths are used to attack the enemy's weaknesses!"
Blenzan understood it and said without hesitation: "Second brother, don't worry, I'm here! Tuyuhun is here! The Tang people will not be able to occupy it!"
Qin Ling hugged him happily: "Good brother!"
After bidding farewell to Blenzan Blade, I heard Gongren's hoarse voice: "Father, even the Divine Guards can betray you, will these people in the army also defect to Zampu?"
Anger flashed in Qin Ling's eyes, and he wanted to slap him.
But now is not the time to educate his son, but to boost the morale of the army: "Zanpu cannot take away these 100,000 elite soldiers. He has no prestige in the army, and it is impossible for him to reward so many Gui civilians like he did to the divine guards.
Don’t be blindly suspicious!”
At this moment, Gongren was frightened and frightened: "But what if my father goes back and Zanpu kills you directly?"
Qin Ling said: "I hope so. He dared to dare to kill a general who returned victoriously. I immediately caused the army to mutiny and led the troops to fight back into the palace! However, according to the analysis of the eldest brother, Zanpu will give me a normal reward.
Convene the Five Ru Alliance, and then slowly abolish my military power!"
Gongren's face was extremely ugly: "But in that case, wouldn't we be just fish on the chopping board, to be slaughtered by Zampu?"
Qin Ling shook his head: "It's not that simple!"
"Our clan has ruled for more than twenty years. Although it has not reached the point where we can directly commit rebellion and usurp power, it is still deeply rooted. As long as we do not cause chaos, Zampu will not kill us so easily!"
"To say the least, if the situation is really bad and unsustainable, our clan will retreat to the Tuyuhun land, occupy it, and remain a heroic force. We will wait until Tubo declines and then fight back!"
Gongren finally calmed down and said, "Father is wise!"
Qin Ling put his broad palm on Gong Ren's shoulder and squeezed hard: "My child, you must grow up quickly and shoulder the important responsibilities of the family like your fifth uncle!"
Gongren forced himself to cheer up and said loudly: "Father, I understand!!"
Qin Ling's eyes widened: "Why are you roaring? You have ambitions but don't speak loudly. Next, you have to remember that you must always be on guard against assassins' attacks. Only if you and I are safe can we keep our military power intact and our family safe!"
Gongren was startled, and his voice became deeper: "Father, I understand..."
In the process of saying this sentence, he deeply realized that everything was different.
Only the eagle flying freely in the sky is still so arrogant and wanton.
