Chapter 275 Border Monument

"General, please calm down and let me go back and mobilize the troops?"

A deputy general next to General Huyan said that he saw everything with his eyes. Although there were only eight or nine hundred people on the opposite side besides the artillery, these eight or nine hundred people were all carrying serial crossbows. They could

In an instant, the number of bows and arrows shot out was ten times the number of people, that is, eight or nine thousand. We simply could not resist it.

Although we also have archers in our team, there is a gap between us and others in terms of speed and accuracy. Anyone can see this gap in hardware, and it cannot be made up for by our bravery, especially

It's because the distance between the two sides is so close.

The matter is at a standstill here. Changsun Chong and Cheng Chumo are watching in a daze, looking very relaxed. General Huyan is very nervous. What he said just now has been spoken. If you don't take action, it will definitely happen.

It's embarrassing, but if you can't win in a fight, it's not just embarrassing.

"Why do we have to make the atmosphere here so tense? We are originally friendly neighboring countries, but it is not worth it for some small things to turn into this. This is still my grassland in Tuyuhun, and I happened to transport a few from Wangting.

Fat sheep, why don't you let my people roast it, let's just enjoy this beautiful scenery, isn't it the most beautiful thing for everyone to turn their differences into friendship?"

Midu Khan was stagnant when he saw the situation here. As the new Khan of Tuyuhun and the real owner of this land, he could not let this war start. Since the last war in the Tang Dynasty, Tuyuhun arrived

It has not recovered so far. Many people in the country have no place to graze. If the Tang Dynasty and Tubo fight again, the battlefield will definitely be in Tuyuhun. Even if they surrender to the Tang Dynasty now, Tuyuhun's losses will be very small.

Will rise straight up, so in the war between the two empires, Tuyuhun disappeared in the end. How could he let such a thing happen?

After Tuyuhun Khan finished speaking, Cheng Chumo and Changsun Chong still had the same expressions as before, without any intention to answer the words. They were also very nervous at the moment, but for the sake of the national prestige of the Tang Dynasty, they could not be the first to answer the words. In a diplomatic situation

Every action is important.

"I've long heard that the cattle and sheep on your Tuyuhun grassland are fat and tender and juicy. If that's the case, I won't bother you."

The corner of General Huyan's mouth twitched, and he analyzed all the realistic situations. In the end, he felt that he could not win. If the stalemate continued like this, the only one who would be embarrassed would be Tubo. It would be better to use this step to get down than anything else.

All much better.

"Wait a minute..."

Just when everyone was breathing a sigh of relief, Master Zeng suddenly stood up. Changsun Chong had a confused face, but he also felt in his heart that Master Zeng stepped forward at the wrong time.

We have already taken the lead, got off to a good start, and others have already given in. We can't mess with things at this time. We can't bully others too much in anything we do, not to mention that the other party is not much different from us, but

It is not the kind of weak country that we can manipulate at will.

"I came from the capital to erect a monument here under the emperor's order. The emperor's order has not yet been fulfilled, so I dare not neglect it."

After Mr. Zeng said these words, Changsun Chong and Cheng Chumo understood that they had to finish their business first. Erecting a monument at the border of Tuyuhun was also the right of the suzerain country. When foreigners passed here, you could enter.

It is not only the territory of Tuyuhun, but also a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty. In other words, after crossing this boundary monument, it is basically equivalent to entering the sphere of influence of the Tang Dynasty.

The people of Tuyuhun are also very opposed to this kind of work. They are the owners of this land. Now that a Datang sign is put on it and they can still see it every morning and evening, it is also a painful torture for them.

But without this sign, the Tibetan army of 150,000 would have marched in long ago. Are you willing to suffer such torture? Or do you want to become slaves of the Tibetan people?

"Angels take care of themselves."

General Huyan felt unhappy, but he didn't want to make things here even worse. At the most embarrassing time just now, he had already figured out the situation here, and he couldn't defeat them. There was no point in saying these useless words.

What's more, he has read the credentials of Tuyuhun and the Tang Dynasty. Now Tuyuhun is a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty. Even if they don't allow the erection of monuments, there is no way to change this.

"Fire the cannon."

General Huyan went to the tent next to him to rest. Midu Khan had already asked people to prepare roasted whole sheep, but when they heard these two words, both the general and Midu Khan felt the earth shaking.

the sound of.

Twenty ballistae were fired at the same time, and the shells landed almost at the same time in the distance. Of course, they were not adjusted to the farthest range. In order to maintain the suppression of Tubo and Tuyuhun, they exploded several hundred meters away.

Looking at the smoke in the distance, General Huyan's face flickered. Could this be the power of Datang's secret weapon?

All the troops in Tubo also saw this scene. Fortunately, they endured it just now. If we could not help but go up and fight with them just now, and these shells fell into our crowd, I don’t know how many people would have died by now.

Already.

"The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty issued an edict..."

Although Mr. Zeng's voice was not very loud, it was still sonorous and powerful. Many people around him heard the emperor's edict. The faces of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were naturally glorious, but the faces of the soldiers of Tuyuhun showed a trace of humiliation.

As for the Tubo soldiers next to them, their faces were also uncomfortable. It turns out that this is the boundary of Tuyuhun. They can bully Tuyuhun if they want. Now there is a boundary monument of the Tang Dynasty here. If you dare to cross this boundary monument, just now

Mr. Zeng made it very clear that it is equivalent to entering the territory of Datang, and Datang will hold all responsibilities accountable.

Another one is the establishment of the Tuyuhun Protectorate, which also made the Tubo people feel the crisis. If the Tang Dynasty just erected a stone monument, then they have nothing to worry about. When the time is right, we can also cross this river.

, and then continued to annex Tuyuhun.

But now that the Protectorate has been established in the southern region of Tuyuhun, the Tang Dynasty will station two thousand troops here. Although the two thousand troops are not many in number and can't do much, they are a symbol. If the Tubo army dares to attack

If two thousand people take action, then the Tang Empire behind these two thousand people will not be watching.
