When they first set off, the two men were still very excited, but as the altitude got higher and higher, the two men were already holding on forcibly on their horses. In order to avoid any accidents, Li Xiang forced the two men to let them go.
The two men went into the carriage.
Now Li Xiang can take the main road. After the peace agreement was concluded, the border has been opened. Li Xiang took the Cui family's route, so no one questioned them. They just walked on the main road, of course entering and exiting.
The main road in Tubo is only compared to the road last time. If Han people were to walk on it, it would be extremely uncomfortable.
"My dear mother, I had long heard that it was uncomfortable to come up. I didn't expect it to be so uncomfortable. I thought my bones were stronger than others and nothing would happen to me after I came up. I always felt that I
He’s already dead once.”
Yuchi Baolin said breathlessly, this guy was unconvinced in the past. Some businessmen said that he couldn't hold on at all. At that time, he even refuted them. Even when he set out today, he thought that his body was better and stronger than those ordinary people.
He was vomiting so much that he didn't know what to say anymore. He leaned his head against the side of the carriage. If he didn't want to delay, he would even want to jump off the carriage.
As for Changsun Chong in the other carriage, his luck was relatively good. This guy had already fallen into a deep sleep, but every half hour, Li Xiang had someone wake him up.
Sleeping in such a state is not a good thing and is extremely harmful to a person's body, so waking him up every once in a while is good for Changsun Chong's health.
"After you have come here, you will understand what I think. Even though our army in the Tang Dynasty is powerful, if we can't fight in such an environment, then don't let our sons come to fight. When the time comes, there will be no other choice but the battlefield.
In addition to the casualties on the ground, I don’t know how many more lives will be lost just in this environment. Although I asked them to train on the plateau, it was just a preparation and I didn’t think about actually letting them do it.”
Li Xiang sighed helplessly. Of course he didn't suffer from altitude sickness. After going back and forth several times in succession, he was already very accustomed to the situation here. Including the people following him, there was only Zhangsun in the entire team.
Chong and Yuchi Baolin were not feeling well.
"Your Highness is right, can we avoid a war or not? This is still the mainland you mentioned. How big is the slope just now? If we send people to fight, how many people will we need to push the grain trucks?
In this case, I guess one person would be exhausted after pushing it three or five times. If five people push a car, we cannot prepare the labor force at the rear."
Yuchi Baolin thought of the large and small slopes along the way. When you go downhill, you have to find someone to pull you. When you go uphill, you have to find someone to push you. If there were not so many people, it is estimated that these goods would not be transported at all.
If you don't go to the front line, you don't know how the Tibetan people live their daily lives. In short, it is really difficult for us in the Tang Dynasty.
Li Xiang asked these two guys to go on a trip and let them see the specific situation here. After returning, he would explain to some people within the court. Now another voice has appeared within the court, that is, taking advantage of the civil strife in Tubo, we should
Just send troops to attack here.
Especially some veteran generals in the army, they think this opportunity is once in a lifetime. As for environmental problems, these people have not paid attention to them. In these years, they have been fighting in the north and south. What kind of environment have they not seen? The Turks back then
Is the environment better?
Because there were two more burdens on the team, they could not move faster. The original seven-day journey took nine days to arrive. When Li Xiang arrived at Magi Tusi's official village, he found that most of the people here had already arrived at the front line.
Went, only the housekeeper and a few people were here.
"Sir, you are back. Lu Dongzan has brought back a large number of troops from the border and has launched two counterattacks. The gentlemen went to the battlefield in person to supervise the battle. We lost eight hundred warriors yesterday."
When the housekeeper saw Li Xiang, he was about to shed tears. Lu Dongzan came back with a large number of reinforcements, and these people were all the elites of Tibet. Otherwise, they would not have been selected to guard the border. They counterattacked in an upright manner.
, and it is becoming more and more fierce. If the chieftain's side had not gained the upper hand, I am afraid that the defense line would have been breached long ago.
"I brought two friends with me this time. They are feeling a little unwell on the way. You can find a way to adjust them. I will rest for a while, and then I will go to the front line to have a look and have a talk with your chieftain."
Li Xiang didn't waste any time, and the housekeeper quickly asked the people below to carry Yuchi and Baolin in. People from the Tang Dynasty would be in this situation, so they just need to rest for a while.
Of course, there are some people who can't rest at all, so their fate can only depend on it. In today's era, there is no so-called special medicine. Herbal medicine may be able to provide some relief, but it also depends on your own ability.
If you can't handle it, then next year's anniversary may be your anniversary.
After Li Xiang returned to the house, Xiao Liuzi hurried in. Although he wrote two letters every day, Xiao Liuzi still felt a little scared. Li Xiang gave him such a heavy task, and he always felt that he was not qualified to do it.
.
"Master, let me report to you..."
When he saw Li Xiang, Xiao Liuzi was extremely nervous. He wanted to tell all the events of the past few days in an instant. Listening to his talk, which was as confusing as a bursting bean, Li Xiang felt that his
The brain is big.
"Okay, okay, hurry up and stop. I know what you are thinking. What you report every day when you write a letter is very accurate. There is no need to tell me again, and I also understand some things.
I'm going to ask you a few questions about things I don't understand, and you can just answer them. We don't need to report things that have already been reported again. It's not efficient."
Listening to Li Xiang's words, Xiao Liuzi nodded beside him, and now he learned a new word from our young master, that is efficiency.
"Approximately how many troops are there on both sides now?"
Because the situation on the battlefield changes every day, the specific figures must be based on that day, and those reported previously are no longer of much use.
