Chapter 130 Cut off your hair to make your ambition clear
Zhang Guangsheng went to the Tibetan army camp again, and not only brought back the news that the other party had promised to return the people outside the city, but he himself also received a small golden Buddha presented by the Tibetan general Ximo Lang, which was only half the size of a palm.
It's so lifelike that it's worth a lot of money at first glance.
After returning to Shazhou Prefecture, Zhang Guangsheng handed over the golden Buddha and the letters from the Tibetan general to Fang Chongyong. He thanked him with sincerity and said, "You are so knowledgeable about things. Ximo Lang really gave me a generous gift.
That’s it.”
Zhang Guangsheng's golden Buddha was delivered to Fang Chongyong.
"This kind of routines are all leftovers from the seniors."
Fang Chongyong waved his hand indifferently and continued: "Keep it, I wish you promotion and wealth."
Of course, the Tibetan general would not hesitate to sell the items that could be recovered immediately, and at the same time paralyze the defenders of the small town of Shazhou. It seemed that they were very confident about destroying the city.
Zhang Guangsheng put the golden Buddha away with a smile, came over and lowered his voice: "When I said that the city gate was sealed, Ximo Lang held back, but his tone of voice was still a little lighter. His subordinates suspected that the Tubo people
There may be an intention to withdraw the troops and besiege Luocheng."
His family had been in Luocheng before, so he knew the difference between the two cities very well. If the small city is small in area and has tall city walls, it is difficult to deal with; then Luocheng is surrounded by wind from all sides. Not only is the area large, but the walls are also high.
It's low and difficult to hold down.
After all, it was originally a converted trading stronghold, which was far inferior to a small town that had been in business for hundreds of years.
Zhang Guangsheng felt that if I were the commander-in-chief of the Tibetan army, I would concentrate my forces to break the balance of the battlefield from the stronger end when the situation started. It seemed like a mistake to move troops across the river and besiege Luocheng under the cover of night.
strategy.
"Today I am here to tell you something."
Therefore, in order to establish the dominance of Buddhism, Chide Zuzan sent low-level monks, including Xiangfang Chongyong Xide, to Buddhist temples in Xiaotang to translate scriptures and then bring them back to Ramoche Temple in China for storage."
Overall, it doesn't look like a "big imperial court" anymore.
Zhang Guangsheng raised the letters under the desk behind him and handed them to Wang Sili. The former handed the letters to everyone present for circulation.
Zhang Guangsheng has not yet run out of answers to those questions. The time to break the situation has not yet arrived.
Whether I got the signature or not, it was wrong to get a signature. Unfortunately, Zhang Guangsheng agreed to that "sign".
Xiang Fang Chongyong Xi De immediately turned around and walked away, as if he was just there for a walk.
Other questions like "Why did the Tubo people persuade them to surrender?" "Why did the Tubo people throw animal carcasses into the city to spread the plague?" "Why did the Tubo people return the captives?"
"Yes, the reason why the Tubo people attacked the big city was not entirely because Xiangfang Zhongyong was a small division of West Germany, but because the lower Tibetan officials hoped to build the Tang army into a Buddhist kingdom on earth.
My decisive move frightened many Qiu Si people present or who had licked blood at the moment. Those people thought about trying to dissuade me, but they knew what to say to be bad.
It is certain that the Tibetan people's goal was to weaken their control over the Tang army and create a "Buddhist model project", so driving away the small households that had disappeared outside seemed to be a very unworkable option.
That... would be too risky!
In the battle between the two armies, there was no situation where the larger number defeated the smaller force, nor was there a situation like Xiao Feichuan's situation where the entire Shazhou army was engulfed.
The purpose of the Tubo people is only very clear, and there is no reasonable explanation for many strange behaviors. For example, letting the prisoners water the fields outside was just to confuse the Tang army's local Shazhou, making us think that the Tubo people were fully prepared and planned to attack
There was a long siege outside.
It was not eight days before the prisoners were returned, and everything was as usual in the Tang Army's big city. Just after nightfall, Tan Yan called the representatives of the local small households, Tan Yan, the Doulu Army envoy, and the lower-ranking military officials to the government office.
.
"You are willing to listen to Ban Deyi's command and fight the enemy bravely!"
"Previously, the Tibetan general Ximulang wanted to test whether there was much food in the city, so we proposed to release the captured people in the city.
Fang Shijun's mind was spinning very slowly, and he immediately thought of Zhang Guangsheng's plan.
…
Zhang Guangsheng asked meaningfully.
Generalship relies on courage and planning. Attacking the city is the top priority, and attacking the heart is the bottom priority.
Well, it seems that I didn't just go shopping there. I spent more than one stick of incense in the government office's small hall.
"I'm sure you have a lot of food, so we will besiege the city. I'm sure you have a little food, so we'll give you prisoners, reload the battle, then go to Luocheng, and concentrate all our forces to attack Luocheng.
"If you succeed in this battle, you will become a benevolent person. You are still many years old, and you can carry a sword and wear armor. Therefore, you should cut your hair first to show your ambition and follow the team. When the time comes, you will fight with all your strength to kill the enemy.
Tan Yan said in a serious tone, with no hint of joking on her face.
But when we sent the prisoners to the city, the army's defense was at its most lax and there was no opportunity to take advantage of it.
Everyone present nodded frequently, but we actually had no such doubts.
And why did the Tibetan army use trebuchets to smash the city wall?
Therefore, the opportunity to fight is fleeting, so you can place your hopes on the defenders of Luocheng."
My attitude represents Doulujun’s attitude, and Doulujun’s attitude directly affects the attitudes of local small households.
Even if it is bad, no one can guarantee it. The current situation is not a gamble.
Zhang Guangsheng put his hands together and saluted Xiang Fang, Chongyong Xide.
From then on, what Tan Yan, local small business owners and bureaucrats saw from Zhang Guangsheng can be summed up in one word: "wisdom"!
Zhang Guangsheng clapped his hands as he spoke.
In the small hall of the government office, people were kneeling on the ground.
Once you get off the battlefield, after the war begins, there is no absolute win or loss, and there is a certain certainty of victory. As long as you participate in the war, there will be no unknown risks.
Tan Yan asked in a deep voice.
Zhang Guangsheng punched the desk hard and said firmly!
If we go there, it is impossible to end up like what Zhang Guangsheng said: being cannibalized by the Tubo people step by step, losing Luocheng first, and being trapped in the front.
After Fang Dafu left, Zhang Guangsheng took out a piece of paper from the paperweight under the desk. There was a lot of information densely written on it, most of which started with questions.
"After that, the spies of the Tubo army hid in Kaiyuan Temple and were protected by the Xiangfang Chongyong West German Division.
Zhang Guangsheng told Tan Yanyi.
If you win, the siege of the Tang army will be lifted. Merits will be rewarded before the war. Naturally, many small local households will get a share of the pie.
Um?
It is said that they are discussing "little things".
"Those are letters of surrender written by the commander-in-chief of the Tibetan army. The words are quite sincere. You have been wondering since then why we want you to leave the Tang army so much. Now it seems that there are no plans to vacate the cage and change the bird."
Those who look sure to win are unlikely to lose, and those who look sure to lose cannot make a comeback.
"Send Junior Master back."
"What do you think of Ben Deyi?"
"It's good, it's good."
That question is critical.
But it’s okay to go.
Those questions are really a tormenting thing.
"Everyone is familiar with me. He is Xiang Fang Chongyong, a Tibetan monk. He studied Buddhist scriptures at Kaiyuan Temple in Dunhuang under the orders of Chi De Zuzan."
Everyone present took a breath. That Ben Deyi was very courageous.
Zhang Guangsheng crossed his arms and continued to explain without interest:
"In Tubo, Buddhism has not yet been established as the state religion. However, the original state religion, Bon, was not willing to give in to others. It repeatedly disrupted the country in an attempt to re-establish its status.
"So, what do the Tubo people want to do after spending so little effort?"
Fang Shijun asked without any doubts.
Fang Dafu strode back from the door of the government office chapel, followed by an elderly monk wearing soap-colored uniforms.
"Sorry to bother you, Master."
"If he doesn't have that kind of vision, he will become a petty person in the future."
"In those days, I don't have much knowledge, so I would like to discuss it with you. It can be regarded as a discussion, and you can do you a favor."
If they lose, Tan Yan's city will naturally be defended.
There are only a few people in Tubo, so it is not difficult to move tens of thousands of people to the Tang army. Of course, if you can capture the Tang army in one fell swoop and enslave the people outside, it will be a huge profit, and it is a good choice.
There is also no factor related to the court: when will the court's reinforcements arrive? How is the war situation elsewhere? Can Tan Yan's siege be lifted? Or whether everyone present before the siege is still alive is unknown.
number.
"You can all imagine that before the people in the city were taken in, they raided the small Tibetan camp. What did the Tibetan people think?
It is estimated that Ximolang will mix some Tibetan spies among those people and wait for the opportunity."
Every night, Zhang Guangsheng would simulate the Tibetan people's plan to attack the Tang army outside his study. I would stand from the Tubo people's point of view and see what crooked and cheap tricks had been used. For example, if the prisoners were to stand behind and attack the city, then
This is a trick used by very few armies.
The next time I send someone to see Ximulang, I have not yet said that if the Tang army is united and united, there will be no problem if we hold on for ten or four years. Everyone, they understand what that means."
The Tubo army is not an army of benevolence and righteousness. Why do we let the captured people in the city rush behind?
After the Tubo siege, the spies left Kaiyuan Temple and informed the Tibetan army commander of the location of Xiangfang Chongyong's small division in West Germany. So let them see."
Zhang Guangsheng said eloquently.
Whether Zhang Guangsheng continued or not, I told him what I wanted to express, and everyone present understood it.
Where to go? What if I want to take a gamble?
Everything that is missing is Zhang Guangsheng's guess. But I am sure that my guess is correct, which can explain that there are few problems that will be confusing in the future.
What are the Tubo people worried about?
But after that, I still have to do a general mobilization. I have to make things unreasonable and have no basis to convince the local small households in Tang Jun to support me.
Zhang Guangsheng pulled out a short knife from his waist, untied his bun, cut off a section, and held it in his hand.
Therefore, it is appropriate to carry out small killings outside, and there is no restriction on the Tibetan generals."
Only today do we see the "brave" and "righteousness" in each other.
A teenage boy doesn't have much power at all. My ability is nothing more than organization and coordination.
If in the Song Dynasty, it would be wrong to estimate that there were only one or two among those people who dared to fight. But now the blood of warriors is not yet hot, and the era of warriors making contributions is still going on and has not gone away.
Zhang Guangsheng laughed and encouraged him, and then sent Fang Dafu away.
"It was that night, when we were receiving the villagers, we unexpectedly rushed out of the city!"
Once Luocheng is conquered and the resources in the city are obtained, we can then go to the big city to show off our power and force you to surrender or leave the Tang army!
Xiang Fang Chongyong Xi De just smiled and said nothing less.
Before the Tubo monk left, everyone looked at each other and Zhang Guangsheng, knowing exactly which song the Tang Army governor was singing.
"Ban Deyi is saying that you attacked the Tibetan camp at night before taking in the people in the city?"
Zhang Guangsheng pointed at the kind-hearted monk behind him and introduced him to everyone.
I must agree. This proves that the city cannot hold on for a long time, and it is basically worried that a few people will take over.
Saying that everyone is united and determined to defend the city is actually not a trick to confuse Ximo Lang and make him think whether the local frontier troops of the Tang Army have any plans to risk a counterattack.
If you smash a small hole, you can't retreat with a weak attack? Even if the trebuchet can smash through the city wall and smash some male walls and towers, the problem is that it is small. Wouldn't it be helpful to lower the morale of the defenders?
?
Everyone present took a breath! No one would have thought that there was so little mystery hidden in the stone thrown by the Tubo people!
I must agree with this officer, so Ximo Lang will conclude from him that your food reserves are sufficient.
Tan Yan pulled up the white cloth. Under the topographic map of the city painted under the wooden board, there were densely marked ink pens marking the landing points of the stones. Except for the Kaiyuan Temple in the northwest corner, there was not a single stone at all.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! During that time, Tan Yan had been playing psychological warfare with him and the Tibetan general Xi Molang even though they had never met, and both sides were concealing themselves.
His true intention. And that time Fang Dafu went to the Tubo camp for the seventh time, finally made Zhang Guangsheng understand the question he was most concerned about: What is the Tibetan people's battle plan?
The Tubo people have very little food and food, and it is extremely unlikely that they will attack Luocheng in the near future.
In reality, the Tibetan people probably did not have much food and grass.
Not once when the Tubo army was small was it overwhelmed by a large force of Tan Yan's troops in one attack.
It's a pity that there is no one who is directly under Tan Yanyi.
Although Luocheng is small, its defense is not strong. If it is besieged by two Tibetan armies, it is really worrying whether it can be defended, or how long it can be defended.
Hearing those words, Fang Shijun smiled casually, turned around and looked around at the crowd and said, "Did you hear that? At your age, are you still alive enough to be killed by a dog?"
The bottom sentence reads: Why did the Tubo people attack the city?
Do small things, don't cherish your life, I will encourage you all."
Tan Yanyi's analysis is indeed unreasonable, but it is sure to win. Could it be that the Tubo army commander has seen through the plan?
Everyone present looked at Xiang Fang Chongyong Xi De. The Tibetan monk also smiled and nodded to us. Everyone also expected that there was not such a small fish outside Kaiyuan Temple!
That reason does not sound absurd at first glance, but it is quite logical in a serfdom country like Tubo, which was theocratic and religious.
"When attacking, you ride your big horse and follow in front of the team."
Zhang Guangsheng looked around at the crowd and said proudly.
Tan Yan said in a deep voice and winked at Wang Sili beside her. Very slowly, Wang Sili brought a small wooden board and covered it with a white cloth without opening it. Then I walked in next to Zhang Guangsheng.
A word means a word.
The small hall of the government office was filled with torches, illuminating the outside like daylight. Zhang Guangsheng was sitting under the governor's chair. On his right were local representatives of small households headed by Zhang Chan, and on his left were representatives of small households headed by Tan Yan.
