Li Siye folded his hands in front of his lower abdomen, thought for a while and said: "According to the "Tang Law", I am the master of Dao Rou. The master has the right to interfere or directly rule on the marriage of slaves. I can reject your proposal or let you
Can’t see her.”
Kang Huaishun looked at Li Siye with a worried look on his face, his brows knitted into a knot.
He changed the topic: "However, I have always been kind and tolerant, so naturally I cannot be so ruthless. I cannot deprive you of the right to pursue love, nor can I let you think that because of my selfishness, I have cut off the opportunity for slaves to fight for freedom and escape from slavery.
.I can’t be a villain who beats mandarin ducks with a stick.”
"I'll give you a chance to ask Daorou in person and put forward the conditions you mentioned to her to see if she is willing to follow you. If she is willing, I will let her go without saying a word and give her to you.
Happiness. If she doesn't want to, then there's nothing I can do to help."
Kang Huaishun was overjoyed, thinking that he could really pursue happiness, and thanked Li Siye repeatedly: "Thank you, General Li. I didn't expect you to understand justice so well. If Daorou knew that you made such a decision, she would also be very grateful to you."
Li Siye nodded in agreement: "You're right, I also hope he will be grateful to me. It's getting late, go and rest early, there may be another big battle tomorrow."
Kang Huaishun left with great gratitude. Li Siye looked at his back and smiled, wondering if he would lose hope in life if he hit his head and was bleeding.
In the early morning of the next day, the Tang army went up the upper reaches of the Po Le River and saw Sole City at the foot of the mountain. Sole City was originally the capital of the Secret Protectorate. In the first year of Longshuo, it was attached to the Secret Protectorate. The imperial court set up a garrison here
Zhoubo and Zhou. Due to several battles between Tang and Tibet in the Congling area, Sole City has changed its owner several times. In recent years, it has been controlled by the Tubo people, so Luo Zhentan, the leader of the Secret Protector Kingdom, can only stay in Congling.
Regional nomadism.
This time, under the leadership of the Tang army, the secret protector finally had a chance to recapture the capital. Lord Luo was also very excited and asked Gao Xianzhi to take the lead in the battle.
Gao Xianzhi did not rush to attack, but arrayed the three armies in front of the city and carefully inspected the city's defenses. Although the city walls had been reinforced, most of them were still made of wooden rafts, and their completeness was only equivalent to an expeditionary expedition.
The army stayed in the wild and defended the camp.
The Tang army used camels and horses to transport dry food this time, and also brought a large number of bows and arrows. He expected that if he failed to persuade them to surrender, they should first fire several rounds of arrows to suppress them, but the herdsmen and livestock in the city would be unlucky.
Gao Xianzhi ordered all the Tibetan prisoners to be escorted to the front, and asked Zong Lu to stand up first and shout to the top of the city: "Kagelu Dongdai Dongben, the Tang army asked me to bring you a message. Please stand up and speak!"
No one responded on the city wall, but there was a noise like whispering.
Gao Xianzhi believed that there was no need to rush, because the initiative was in his hands, and it would be a matter of time before Sole City fell into his hands. He wanted to reduce casualties, and in order to shorten the war, he could waste some time.
"Zong Lu, keep shouting to the top of the city and tell them that we can still negotiate terms for surrender now. If we wait for the Tang army to attack the city, I'm afraid they will start a massacre!"
Li Siye was quite doubtful, could such a simple intimidation work? Moreover, he was quite familiar with the wording of this intimidation. He had watched ancient costume movies in the past, and the villains in the TV series seemed to threaten the city like this. He seemed a little unable to accept it.
Already.
Zong Lu continued to shout loudly: "Kage Lu Dongben, as long as you are willing to surrender, the Tang army will definitely guarantee your safety."
Someone in the city finally shouted: "Brothers from the Tang Army, we, Tubo and the Tang Dynasty, are each other's nephews and uncles. We are all one family. Why should we use swords and guns rashly? In fact, we are not willing to be stationed in this bitter cold place. We hope that we can
Withdraw to Tibet. I hope the Tang army can give us a chance. You retreat to the north bank of Bolechuan, and we take the initiative to leave the city, withdraw from Tanjuling, and also take the initiative to withdraw from Xiaobolu Kingdom. What do you think?"
Only a fool would believe this. Once the Tang army retreated to the north bank of Bolechuan, Tibetans would not be able to fly over as long as they had a thousand men guarding the river.
Gao Xianzhi ordered Kang Huaishun to go up and loudly persuade him to surrender: "Kage Ludongben! As long as you are willing to lay down your arms and surrender, the Tang army can give you a high official and a generous salary. I hope you can think about it carefully. The deadline I give you is Chen hour. As soon as Chen hour passes,
If you haven't surrendered yet, the Tang army will attack the city."
After a round of persuasion to surrender, the two sides fell into a stalemate. The Tibetan troops who were stationed in the city no longer sent people out to shout, but Zong Lu still stood at the top of the city, shouting to persuade them to surrender, and even his voice was almost hoarse.
.
Li Siye secretly guessed why Zong Lu was willing to work so hard to persuade him to surrender. Maybe he could imagine that he had someone he cared about very much in the city? But Kagelu himself didn't know, because according to the urine of the Tibetan people, he would know that you surrendered to the enemy.
I have to drag out your family members and kill them.
This may be the reason why Kagelu is unwilling to surrender. He is stationed here with his army, and his family members are still in the cities of Tubo. If he surrenders, his family's lives will be at stake. But if he dies heroically, not only will his family not be
Your life will be threatened and you will be rewarded with a pension.
Thinking of this, Li Siye finally found a way to attack his heart. He put his legs under the horse's belly and walked forward to a stone's throw away from the city. He opened his loud voice and shouted in an even louder voice: "Kage Lu Dongben, this
Behind Sole City is Tanju Ridge. If the Tang army blocks the news, no news will be spread to Xiaobolu behind the mountains, let alone Dabolu and Tubo further away. If the Tang army deliberately creates and spreads news, any news will not be spread to Xiaobolu behind the mountains.
The news can also reach Tubo. So whether you surrender or die, the Tang army can use the situation to create news!"
"Think about it for yourself, even if you die for your country, the Tang army can create false news of your surrender. As long as it is passed to Tubo, even if you confess your innocence, you will be framed for treason and surrender to the enemy, and your family will be the same.
They will be pulled out and killed one by one."
"On the contrary, if you can abandon the dark side and surrender to the Tang Dynasty, we can not only help you hide the news and make you anonymous, but we can even spread the false news that you died for the country to Tubo. Your life can be saved, and your good name can be saved.
Your family can also be saved, isn’t it the best of both worlds?”
A majestic man covered in iron armor appeared on the top of the city. This man was Kagelu. Veins popped up on his face and he shouted angrily: "You bunch of treacherous beasts! What's fake will always be fake.
It can’t be true!”
"A lie can become the truth even if it is told a thousand times, Kage Ludongben, don't you want to try it yourself?"
The top of the city fell into dead silence. The strong man clutched the rammed earth on the city wall tightly, and seemed to be making a difficult decision in his mind. Li Siye stopped his verbal attack at the right time, believing that the results would come soon.
"Please allow me to think about it."
"Okay," Li Siye said loudly, "then we will use noon as the boundary. After noon, if you don't reply, we will attack the city."
He turned the horse's head and returned to the military formation. Lingcheng, the military supervisor, praised in a strange way: "General Li's attack plan is really brilliant. Even our family was frightened when he heard about it. The best thing is to capture Sole City without any bloodshed."
"
Gao Xianzhi also nodded lightly: "I think it should be possible. Li Siye's words have already hit Kagaru's weakness."
The red sun gradually rose into the sky, and the sunlight was particularly dazzling under this high mountain. The Tang army lined up in front of Sole City and waited patiently. As a long time passed slowly, Gao Xianzhi finally raised his head to look at the sun, and took out his hand from his waist.
Hengdao: "It seems they are determined not to surrender and are preparing to attack the city!"
"etc."
A large flag at the top of Sole City slowly fell down, and the flagpole was thrown to the bottom of the city. The city gate made an obscure rumbling sound and slowly opened to both sides.
