The Duan clan of Dali was stationed in the southwest, and the border with Tubo was very long. The Duan clan of Dali had always been the focus of Tubo's response. Until the war in the Western Regions, Tubo's heavy troops had always been stationed on the border with Dali. However, with the war in the Western Regions,
In addition, the four-nation coalition forces now blockaded the Western Region with heavy troops. Tibet then transferred most of its troops to the northern front.
To be honest, Dali's army is not too large. After all, Dali alone cannot support that many troops, and due to the restrictions of the court, it is not allowed to have so many. But the war in the Western Regions is related to the future strategy of the Central Plains.
, Duan Yu also gritted his teeth and directly mobilized more than half of Dali's army, more than 50,000 troops, to gather at the border.
Dali's action this time was entirely to attract the attention of Tubo, so it was not hidden at all, but made a big fanfare. Zeng Yi even suggested that Duan Yu hold a military parade in Dali. Duan Yu discussed it with Dali officials.
, feeling that the military parade was indeed a good way to intimidate Tibet, he ordered that Dali's army first assemble in Dali City.
In just one day, Dali's army of more than 50,000 men gathered in Dali City. The military parade was so grand that Dali displayed almost all of its strength on the surface, including cavalry and archers.
In order to gain momentum, Zeng Yi led the blood-clad guards and the heavy cavalry formation to also participate in the military parade.
After the military parade, the army marched directly to the front line and border. Such a big move by Duan of Dali naturally quickly attracted the attention of Tubo. Especially after the military parade, the army marched directly to the front line and border. Tubo was a little panicked.
You must know that Tibet now only has an army of 10,000 to 20,000 troops on the border.
Tubo was a little panicked, but the Xixia court, Persia and other countries were still very calm. On the one hand, Dali's actions were not directed at them. On the other hand, the strength of the three countries was indeed stronger than that of Tubo. To be honest, even if they had already invested so much in the war in the Western Regions
With more energy, there will still be no problem in dealing with Dali's 50,000-strong army.
The four countries also understood that it was unlikely that Dali would intervene in the war now. It was more likely that it was just to put some pressure on Tubo. The three kingdoms of the Xixia Persian Steppe persuaded Tubo not to care about Dali, but they were not the ones facing the pressure, and Tubo did not dare to take risks.
After much hesitation, Tubo still mobilized tens of thousands of troops from the northern border and returned to the eastern border to deal with Dali's army. Tubo was already somewhat short of troops, but as soon as it mobilized the troops that blocked the western region on the northern border, it instantly became a little weak.
It was stretched. The troops on the northern front were stretched thin, and the troops on the eastern front were also insufficient. In addition, although Dali did not have many troops, it had many masters. A super-class master from Tianlong Temple was directly sent to the front line, so Tubo had to send a super-class master as well.
Expert response.
Tubo also felt that its military strength was somewhat insufficient, and like the Central Plains, it began to recruit troops. However, now that it was recruiting troops, it could not use those new soldiers immediately.
Zeng Yi and Xueyiwei followed the Dali army back to the border area that day. Most of Dali's army was gathered at the largest pass bordering Tubo. In contrast, there were not so many Tibetan troops in other parts.
At a small pass, the Tibetan army stationed here only has about a thousand troops. With the strength of a blood-clad guard, there is no problem in breaking through forcefully. However, Zeng Yi obviously does not want to forcefully break through. "Our goal is to open up a line."
The passage that can continuously enter the Western Region cannot be broken through forcefully."
"What should we do?" The man in the blood-clothed guard looked at Zeng Yi doubtfully.
"Hey, don't forget my specialty!" After Zeng Yi investigated this pass, he had a plan in mind to open up a channel that can be used continuously. The best way is to control an inconspicuous pass and control it.
At a pass, the easiest way is of course to control their leader.
To control their leader, there are only two ways to go. One is to use the soul-moving method to control Zeng Yi, and the other is to directly replace him with disguise. However, both methods have advantages and disadvantages. The soul-moving method, with Zeng Yi's skills, can
But if the misunderstanding is successful, it will be more troublesome and time-consuming. Although the other way is faster, the chance of the secret being exposed is too high.
After discussing with the boss and the blood-clothed guards, no one could make up their mind. In the end, Zeng Yi made his own decision. He sneaked into the pass to see the commander before choosing which way to go.
With the strength of Zeng Yi, a top-notch master, it was very easy for him to sneak into a pass defended by thousands of people. Taking advantage of the dark moon and high wind, Zeng Yi quietly sneaked into the pass without attracting the attention of any Tubo people. The pass was not big.
There are only about a thousand people stationed there, and the leader of these people is easy to find. The best room in the pass is basically the leader's room.
The best room is actually not as good as an ordinary private house in a big city. In such a difficult environment, it is impossible to think of a good place to live.
The leader of these thousands of people was a big Tibetan man. Zeng Yi didn't even think about paying much attention to this guy. He wanted to sneak into his residence and search. If he could find some dirty information about this guy, he would be able to control him easily in the future.
A lot, but who knew that this person was not very strong, but he was very sensitive. Later Zeng Yi realized that this guy was a person who survived a cruel battlefield, and was extremely sensitive to the surrounding environment. In addition, of course Zeng Yi didn't care too much.
Naturally, it was discovered by others.
"Who!" Zeng Yi was searching the room, but he didn't expect that an angry voice suddenly came from behind. Zeng Yi was shocked. When he looked back, the big man stood up from the bed, holding a machete, and slashed at
Zeng Yi.
After ducking sideways, Long beckoned and immediately grabbed the man's wrist with his right hand. At the same time, before the shocked Tubo man could react, Zeng Yi directly used his sunflower acupuncture hand to touch the man.
Looking at the Tibetan leader who could no longer move, Zeng Yi frowned and immediately sent a flying pigeon message to the three bosses, "Brothers, what should we do now? I wanted to come in to investigate, but accidentally, I was killed.
People discovered it, and now I have captured the Tubo leader!"
"Damn it, you missed it at this time?"
A few people complained, and the fourth child replied: "Then there's nothing we can do now. Disguise will take over later."
Looking back at the Tibetan leader who couldn't move, Zeng Yi muttered in a low voice: "Hey, I wanted to spare your life, but I didn't expect that you would commit suicide, so you can't blame me."
If someone discovers it, there is definitely no way to control that person through subtle hypnosis. We can only directly hypnotize him once, get some information from his mouth, and then replace him. (To be continued)
