The people living in the small town are basically local wealthy households, as well as their tribes, tenants, domestic slaves, etc. This has the advantage that as long as the local wealthy households are persuaded, the basic order in the small town can be guaranteed.
In the early morning of this morning, the sun was not so harsh. In front of the west gate of the small town, a large group of mobilized and organized local people were carrying stones thrown into the city by the Tibetans.
These stones are not light in weight. To transport them to an oxcart, you must first use a crowbar to pry them out of the soil using the principle of leverage. Then several strong men will carry them to the oxcart and transport them to the west gate.
"Come on, come on, this stone is piled here, be careful..."
Zhang Guangsheng, who was wearing linen clothes, was instructing the local people to block the west gate of the small town according to Fang Chongyong's instructions! The people carrying the goods at the scene all looked solemn.
Three city gates have been blocked, this is the last one!
I heard that the local governor was just an eleven-year-old child. How could this child be so cruel!
Blocking the city gate means that we will live and die with the local people, and no one can escape. Of course, this is also a declaration of war on the Tibetans, and we are determined to fight to the last man!
"The king's envoy, the city gate is blocked. The soldiers must defend the city with one heart and one mind. Don't think about other things."
Fang Chongyong said to Wang Sili calmly.
No matter what the other party asks, whether he knows or not, he can only answer: He knows.
"Why are you so unfamiliar?"
Wang Sili sighed. He could see that Fang Shijun had not yet become the fourth king of the world. He was so determined that he had even considered the conditions offered by the Tibetan people.
…
"Commanders, please order the meat after ordering it!"
Wang Zhongsi came over and picked up the Heng Dao from the ground, holding it out of his hand and waving it nervously. He seemed to have less strength than Zhang Guangsheng.
Wang Sili, who was beside Zhang Guangsheng, shouted.
Seeing that the other party was still moving, Wen Jieqi patted Fang Dafu on the arm and said:
After all, if you want to eat something before, there are ways to get it!
Behind the Royal Government Office in the great city of Dunhuang, more than two thousand Anaye soldiers stood in formation, whispering among themselves, waiting for Zhang Guangsheng's lecture.
He is the one who protects the outside world from the wind and rain. If he is in high spirits because he is too tired to do chores and misses small things, this will kill all of you.
In the past, based on the reaction speed of the frontier troops in the Hexi Corridor, no reinforcements would arrive within eight days. But now that reinforcements are coming, it is very unlikely that it is because Wen Jieqi is very busy now! He is so busy that he has time to bring troops to relieve the siege.
You can tell from the speed at which my health has improved over the past two years.
Now that he sees that you are safe, he knows that the Wang Army can definitely hold on."
Fang Dafu was straightforward and reached out to Wen Jieqi to ask for the letter.
Doulujun just smiled bitterly because he wanted to comment on those words.
I sighed again.
While Zhang Guangsheng complained, he took Wang Zhongsi to the government office's study room.
"You often feel that your time is more valuable and should be used to do small things.
If you are careless, you will die!
Zhang Guangsheng first bought up the morale of the army by supplementing military pay, so that the military orders of the governor of my state could be recognized by Anaye; then he conquered the hearts and minds of the local small households, allowing us to live and die with the king's army together; first of all, he set an example.
, busy on the front line, and blocking the way in, saying that he would be like everyone else in the city.
"Envoy Wen Jie, someone is the future son-in-law of the Shazhou envoy (Fang Chongyong) from Liangzhou.
Doulu Jun nodded slightly, as if he had no objection at all to Zhang Guangsheng taking charge of the Wang Army's defense. Everything was so natural and calm.
"Swear to the death to kill the enemy!"
Fang Dafu took the letter neatly, put it away close to him, then got off the tower, went up to the city in a hanging basket, and walked with head high towards the nearby Tibetan camp.
"Indeed, his father is actually a very powerful person, far beyond his imagination."
Fang Dafu should understand the principle of finding wealth in danger.
The Tubo people don’t want you to have the brains to rush out and fight us, so that we can’t capture the royal army without any effort.”
Compared to Wang Zhongsi, who has been busy since he was young, calling Zhang Guangsheng a parasite is really an exaggeration.
"So then he went."
"He sent a letter to the Tibetan people on my behalf. He will observe our situation carefully and come back to tell you. Does he dare to go?"
That was one of the reasons why the Doulu Army deliberately ceded part of its military power and was willing to disobey Zhang Guangsheng's orders. The future achievements of the governor of the Royal Army are limited. It is important that you offend me, but what about your descendants and previous generations?
It seems that the Tubo people did not succeed in Luocheng. Later, in order to complain to the court, he pretended to be as if the Tubo people were coming. The walls were fortified and the fields were cleared everywhere in Wenjie, and half of the supplies were transported to the city. Therefore, the Tubo people were there
What kind of supplies did you get in the city?
Zhang Guangsheng nodded slightly. Fang Dafu's answer was completely different from what he expected.
Zhang Guangsheng sighed and said.
Wang Zhongsi was obviously not happy at all. He felt that he was serving Zhang Guangsheng and was "unemployed".
Now it seems that if you have to clean the entire house, why sweep the sky? In the past, you could handle your own chores yourself."
Although, I also deliberately exercise outside of weekdays, and I haven't had a "health doctor" come to give me a massage. It should be said that I still do physical exercise all the time, and it is of very low quality.
Wang Sili added.
Zhang Guangsheng, who occasionally thinks of "tricking people to harm me," first reacted by saying that this Tubo general was trying to trick him!
Although the Tibetans are still holding it, in fact, due to the scorching sun and the impact of lack of food, it is actually a weak crossbow!
Suddenly, I looked around and waved my hand heavily, signaling for the soldiers to come in.
Fang Dafu went to the Tibetan camp, and then returned to Wenjie City very slowly, bringing with him a personal letter from the Tibetan general Ximo Lang.
Zhang Guangsheng sighed and fell into deep self-reflection.
But usually, the border towns are responsible for the prefectures and counties, and the military and civil affairs are separated. The governors are usually civilians parachuted from the central government. They are not good at marching and fighting. Let us just do our job badly. This is also to prevent the border.
The end of the town is small.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The Tubo people camped in the city and endured the scorching sun. We who are accustomed to the hot summer climate are more talkative than you.
As long as the Tubo people are defeated, those things will belong to them, and I will take every penny from them!
…
King's soldiers! I swear to kill the enemy, and I will always be a slave!"
After practicing for a while, I was so tired that I sat down on the ground and gasped.
But I am also a person who opens my mouth when I have clothes to wear and food to eat.
Zhang Guangsheng asked in confusion, standing up and taking the handle of the Hengdao from the opponent's hand.
Zhang Guangsheng asked with a solemn expression.
The officials in front of me outside the government office had already piled the roasted mutton together.
"Swear to the death to kill the enemy!"
"As expected."
The Doulu Army pulled Zhang Guangsheng aside and asked in a high voice: "There are nearly 40,000 soldiers in Hexi. After so many days, it is time for reinforcements to come to Dunhuang County. Why has there been no movement at all until now?"
As for what was going on inside, Zhang Guangsheng, who was trapped in Dunhuang, knew everything about it. Just like in my later history, when Xizhou was besieged by the Tubo people before the An-Shi Rebellion, the young man even knew that Chang'an changed its reign name.
Wen Jieqi nodded slightly, I have already dared to treat the other party as a child. The overly old governor of the Wang Army has very few skills in doing things, and his mental hesitation is far beyond ordinary people!
"Your Majesty, the city gate is not blocked yet, please review it."
Fang Dafu patted his chest and said vowedly.
"Yes, I have to wait until this battle is defeated before I can fulfill it!"
I guessed that the Tibetans were not slow enough to hold on, so I took the risk."
Of course, we also rule out that the other party’s general intentionally exposed it to someone.”
Of course, Zhang Guangsheng had no idea. Before the Tibetan generals saw that letter, they would definitely treat Wen Jieqi, and they might even treat him badly.
However, although the "rightful master" Zhang Guangsheng came, many officials and assistants of the government were carrying cart after cart of silk, and boxes after boxes of gold, silver and jewelry, all piled up in the mansion.
Behind the Yamen.
The eyes of the Qiu Si people, who were exhausted from those days of guarding the city and had to rest day and night, widened their eyes!
I am saving Wang Jun, and I also want to save someone.
So Wen Jieqi sent someone to find Fang Dafu to inquire about the situation in the Tibetan camp.
"Where's the letter? I'll go now!"
As soon as these words came out, the team behind Wang Sili suddenly burst into cold cheers!
"Understood."
Wen Jieqi followed Zhang Guangsheng's instructions, raised her arms and shouted in a low voice!
The sunset in Wang Jun is beautiful, with a hint of tragedy.
This Fang Chongyong Shazhou envoy... looks like a ruthless person. I will really save him at the risk of death, right?
As soon as they met, Zhang Guangsheng asked straight to the point.
Wen Jieqi was a smart person, so she came over and answered loudly:
"No matter what tricks the Tibetans play, our morale will get higher and lower day by day. There is no doubt about that.
What's more, he's just a son-in-law, but he's also engaged?
"In his opinion, how is the Tibetan army doing?"
"I am afraid of death, but I am afraid that death is worth it. Since you feel that this trip will be hindered, I will sacrifice my life for once."
Seeing that the effect was in place, Zhang Guangsheng said to Wang Sili: "Give some cooked meat to the soldiers and scatter them all."
Of course, the Tibetan generals are not qualified to enjoy the worst treatment, but the special soldiers of the Tibetan army are hard to say. Tubo is a serf system, and the hierarchy is as strict as you can imagine. Those bad habits will not be reflected when they retreat to fight.
"Mr. Lang seems to have forgotten who is cooking, washing, and killing chickens and chopping vegetables every day. If you have some strength, can you do it? Killing chickens is like chopping wood, what does he say?"
"Towards the Tibetans, I bowed and knelt. When I handed over the letter, I had to say whatever I wanted.
At night, Wen Jieqi repeatedly checked the letters written by the Tibetan general whom he had never heard of before, and there was no way he could understand the truth and the truth of the other party.
"That's right."
Zhang Guangsheng patted Doulu Jun's arm and assured him.
Doulujun muttered in his heart.
In fact, now the entire big city, whether it is the local small households or the Anaye soldiers, is almost all controlled by Wen Jieqi. My words are turned into military orders and government orders. Doulu has been in the military circles for a long time.
Jun, aware of the gap in personal abilities.
Zhang Guangsheng affirmed what Zhang Guangsheng said. The defenders of the big city could not use hanging baskets to hoist all the people into the city. The Tibetan army was willing to advance to another place, indicating that they would take advantage of the chaos to attack the city.
In some key places in border towns, local military envoys occasionally served as state governors, taking charge of military and civil affairs, so as to protect the environment and the people in times of crisis.
Fang Dafu walked aside quietly and loudly reported to Zhang Guangsheng.
Zhang Guangsheng instantly guessed very few details that were too certain later.
"According to the custom of the Tubo people, they should have returned his body intact before skinning him, to frighten the defenders in the city.
Back in the front yard of the government office, Zhang Guangsheng was practicing chopping with a horizontal knife. He felt that the knife in his hand was too hard to hold.
The cheers were immediately suppressed, and the scene fell silent again.
"With your envoy here, I am not worried about what will happen here. I am just worried that there will be a mixed bag of fish and dragons in Luocheng, alas..."
"That is also a battle. It is a battle like no other. You have to use the sword and the stick. Since you join the army, who dares to say that you will die?"
But compared with the farmers outside the fields, the amount of exercise is obviously too much.
"Don't! If Mr. Lang does that, it will make things difficult for those of you who have a subordinate status.
The solitary smoke is straight in the small desert, and the sun is setting over the long river.
Zhang Guangsheng had a strange look on his face and Dafu teased.
"Generals Anaye heard this badly!"
There is a way to ensure that before I go off to the battlefield, my combat effectiveness is comparable to that of a special elite soldier.
Wen Jie and his soldiers shouted in unison, their voices resounding throughout the sky!
I can only say those eight words."
"All the generals in the Tubo camp were exhausted, but I quietly observed the patrolling soldiers in the small camp. They all looked drunk and were tired and lazy.
"I'm hiding it from you. That trip scared me already. I just want to scare you again."
Unexpectedly, Wen Jieqi quickly waved his hand and said:
Wang Zhongsi finished talking about Medical Officer Li.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! He also wants to tell the Tibetan army commander: The people of your army regard death as death. Even if they defend for ten or four years, they can still defend the king's army. The seven-sided city gate has not yet been
Blocking it will make us think wrongly."
The changes that will affect the millennium are not yet on the way, and Tianbao is talking about the countdown. These are down-to-earth powerful people, so they deserve it.
Those who have made meritorious deeds will be rewarded from there.
"Worry, for a strong man like him, the Tibetan Lord will reward him even if he does something bad. I didn't give him a big reward when I came back that time."
It also shows that the military resources in Hexi are very limited, and they are basically dispatching troops and horses to rescue Wen Jie, who is "critical" to the war situation.
Anyway, there is no grass outside the city, so the sheep trapped in the city can be grazed. So while they are still so hungry that they are skinny and skinny, they should be slaughtered and distributed to Qiu Si and others to improve their food.
In your eyes, Fang Yanei is not considered a "monster" outside of the rich and powerful. He is friendly to the people and has airs, but he pursues luxury and has these describable eccentricities.
"Take a break when you are tired. He only practices for a while. If the city is broken, he will be able to defeat even one Tubo man."
Wang Zhongsi sighed angrily.
Would the Tubo people be so evil as to return the common people of the royal army who had not been captured and demoted as slaves? This was one or two people, or even one or two hundred people!
Although such ability can be said to be unique among officials, it is rare, but considering Zhang Guangsheng's age, it is very complicated.
Zhang Guangsheng looked at Fang Dafu with a half-smile and asked.
After all, Fang Yameni spends very little time studying outside and outside, Xiao Tang's laws, local customs, government documents and official letters, etc. These all require desk work and have no effect on physical exercise.
Zhang Guangsheng said with an expression on his face.
No matter how hard it is, children from rich and powerful families are exactly the same as children from ordinary people's families.
"Don't be upset. Let's go to the study and give you a squeeze on your shoulders. You will be tired from lifting stones today."
That kind of thing seems possible even if I think about it, unless there is no conspiracy.
Zhang Guangsheng used magic to pull out a letter from his sleeve, handed it to Fang Dafu and continued: "Go ahead, leave early and come back early."
"The silks, gold, silver, and treasures in front of me are all theirs!"
"Oh, bad."
"If something happens, he will make another trip and tell you that you will accept the people in the city into the city seven days ago.
All I can do now is not hold on, grit my teeth and persevere.
Wang Sili shouted in a low voice.
Now the Tubo people, we are in a hurry!
Fang Dafu smiled bitterly and said, "Of course I know Zhang Guangsheng is joking."
There are fathers and sons on the battlefield. Throughout the dynasties, the sons have been used as bait. The first failure to seize the enemy has always resulted in victory.
"After defeating the Tibetans, those who died in battle will receive their pensions from there.
Zhang Guangsheng said meaningfully, and added in his heart: No matter whether it is his biological father or his adoptive father.
The soldiers lined up behind the government office immediately shut up when they heard the sound, and the scene became very noisy.
"Swear to the death to kill the enemy!"
"Envoy Shazhou, we will change the defense at dusk today. Gather the soldiers who came up from the defense behind the government office. I want to give you a lecture."
In the letter, Ximo Lang expressed his admiration for the resistance will of the royal army in the cities, and stated that he could not release the captured people into the city to show the Tubo army's respect for Zhang Guangsheng, the governor of Wenjie.
Even if you are willing to wash your own clothes, how can you know the sufferings of the people?
"In the past, he only cooked. You can do other chores yourself."
Your father often said that for people to know their identity, they have to do things that transcend their identity."
Zhang Guangsheng and Wen Jieqi looked at Fang Dafu's leaving figure at the bottom of the city tower, with mixed feelings in their hearts. A long time ago, Doulu Jun couldn't help but asked: "Master, you see that Fang Dafu is quite smart.
Man, why would you let me go to the Tibetan people to die?"
The Tubo people were calling for reinforcements at the encirclement point, and the lower-level officials of the Tang army could certainly see it. Who would be foolish enough to lead the cavalry under the Hexi Corridor, only to be ambushed by the Tibetan heavy infantry!
