Shang Nang stood up, walked slowly towards the outside of the tent, and stood outside the tent.
Looking several miles away, they had been attacking the fortified city for a long time.
Above the city, the flag of the Tang Dynasty still stubbornly fluttered above the city.
Shang Nang pursed his lips tightly, his bloodshot eyes looked at the fortified city that had been unable to be conquered for a long time with a hint of resentment, and then he gave instructions.
"Pass the Prime Minister's orders to all armies to withdraw today..."
The Tibetan generals, who were already exhausted physically and mentally from the long battle, heard this military order and all respectfully saluted and agreed.
Half an hour later, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, whose faces were flushed with excitement, celebrated their victory with the sounds of victory.
Li Ji, who had also lost weight from the hard work and had red eyes, rushed to the top of the city.
Looking at the military tents that were being demolished, and the infantry that was slowly filing away into the distance.
As well as the Tibetan cavalry formation that was well prepared to prevent the Tang army from attacking.
Li Ji couldn't help grinning with joy. He was so excited that he slapped the shoulders of Fang Erlang and Ren Yaxiang, who were smiling happily.
The two young juniors, who were all smiling, had black lines on their faces...

Li Ji ignored the two young men, stroked his long beard, and exhaled with a cheerful smile.
"What a good Shang Nang. This old boy is very sensible. He knows that the army on the southern route has collapsed and that continuing to fight will only be a waste of manpower."
"If he doesn't leave, Tubo will be short of so many young people, and there will be problems with this year's grain harvest."
All the officers and soldiers of the Tang Army were also convinced. The important thing is that everyone has been holding on very hard these days.
The Tibetans attacked with almost ten times the force, even though the Tang army stayed at home and defended the city, with young and strong people helping them.
However, the difference in strength of ten times is still very frightening.
The bursts of cheers around him soon made the whole city joyful.
Although Tubo attacked the city for a long time and failed to break the city, the lives of the people were still greatly affected.
Many business travelers stranded in Yazhou can finally pack their bags and return to their hometowns to reunite with their relatives.
Looking at the Tibetan soldiers and horses retreating in an orderly manner, Li Ji could only stand on the top of the city and watch them off.
Relying on the vast difference in the number of troops and horses under his command, Li Ji was not willing to send troops to pursue him.
It is very likely that the pursuit will fail and he will be bitten by the Tubo people. Wouldn't that bring a very unsatisfactory end to this perfect victory?
The excited laughter of Fang Jun and Ren Yaxiang came from behind.
Li Ji turned his head and looked at the two young juniors. The older Ren Yaxiang was a typical man with both civil and military talents.
Moreover, he has his own unique views on military strategy. As for Erlang Fang.
Although this boy is not an outstanding figure, he is still remarkable for having experienced such a long-lasting offensive and defensive battle for the first time on the battlefield.
But when I think about Fang Xuanling, who is most unhappy with her son abandoning literature and joining the martial arts, if I go back to the first brother Erlang to talk about his military exploits.
When the news came back to Chang'an, I didn't know how the famous Tang Dynasty Prime Minister would feel.
In addition, the Yin army that he had recruited also showed the quality and resilience of a well-disciplined army in this extremely long-lasting offensive and defensive battle.
It seems that the "Military Training Code of the Luzhou Army" is indeed unique, and I will definitely present it to His Majesty when I return to Chang'an.

Originally occupying the advantage of the home court on the bank of Erhai Lake, Meng Shezhao advocate Le Jinqiu, who felt that his daughter would soon become extremely valuable, and a group of Erhai imperial edict chiefs rushed to Jianchuan City.
He was immediately invited into the city lord's palace and met the tall and heroic Cheng Sanlang.
Just seeing Cheng Sanlang's expressionless face, Zhang Lejinqiu suddenly became nervous.
"I visited Cheng Changshi. I haven't seen him for a long time. Cheng Changshi's style is still the same. I didn't expect that Cheng Changshi would lead the army to patrol Yaozhou and be able to obtain..."
Cheng Chubi waved his hand and looked at Zhang Lejin, who was greedy for life and fearful of death, but also greedy for profit.
"Okay, you don't need to say more about my great achievements. Cheng Mou heard that the cooperation talks on the bank of Erhai Lake have never been able to reach an agreement. It's because Zhang Zhaozong asked you..."
Hearing this, Zhang Lejinqiu couldn't help but feel a little panicked, under Cheng Sanlang's gaze that looked like a sharp knife unsheathed.
He could only apologize with a flattering smile.
"Cheng Changshi and my subordinates felt that it would be a bit unfair to those of us who have different orders in Erhai if we divide the shares based on people's heads."
"Didn't I give you two options? The first is to divide the shares according to the number of people, and the second is to divide the shares according to the proportion."
"I have heard that no one else has any opinions, except Zhang Zhaozong."
Facing Cheng Sanlang's aggressive momentum, Zhang Lejin muttered for a long time, not knowing how to answer.
At this time, Cheng Fa walked into the hall, saluted Cheng Chubi and reported loudly.
"Xinuluo, the leader of Mengshe's imperial edict, has arrived and is waiting for the Young Master's summons outside the mansion."
"???" Zhang Lejinqiu, the first generation of Mengshe Emperor, looked at Cheng Sanlang in front of him with a messy face.
His eyes were horrified, his expression was messy, and his whole body was shaking like a corncrake in the autumn wind.
"Cheng, Cheng Changshi, you can't do this..."
Then his legs went weak and he fell to his knees, almost crying.
Cheng Chubi rolled his eyes when he saw the contrast between Meng Shezhao, who was greedy for life and afraid of death, but also greedy and greedy.
"How am I doing?"
"Cheng Changshi, Cheng Xianchang, whatever you say is whatever you say. Even the lower officials are willing to obey. I only hope that Cheng Changshi can let our father and daughter live..."
Seeing Zhang Lejinqiu crying bitterly and looking like he was on the verge of death, if he had known this, he should have exposed this hateful guy like Shinuluo to the public.
Unexpectedly, Xinuluo would bring such a big shadow to him, tsk tsk...
"...Forget it, if that's the case, then go down quickly and sign the equity subscription letter as soon as you come back.
By the way, I would like to urge the edict owners who have not yet signed the contract for me to save me from inviting them over one by one to chat."
Xinuluo stepped into the city lord's palace and saw his immediate boss, Mengshe Zhaozhao King Zhang Lejinqiu, who was looking at the layman with his head distracted.
However, Xinuluo just glanced at it, then collected his thoughts and headed towards the hall.
Entering the hall, Xinuluo bowed respectfully to Cheng Changshi, who held the high position in the hall.
Then he raised his head and looked at Shi Cheng Chubi, the governor of Luzhou who had ruined his plan to seize power through the imperial edict.
And Cheng Chubi was also looking at the very distinctive Xi Nuluo with a careful look.
