Shanzhou.
Dazalugong was holding a piece of fine porcelain and looking up and down.
Some Tibetan soldiers were standing on both sides of the hall holding waist knives.
Some generals were sitting behind their short tables waiting for the opening.
Some soldiers were carrying roasted sheep.
Come in and report: "Marshal, the lamb is roasted."
"Yes."
Dazalugong put down the porcelain and walked to the seat and sat down.
He took out a knife and cut the roast meat on the lamb leg and started eating.
Seeing this, the other captains of thousands and thousands also started to cut the meat with their knives.
Another soldier brought a few dishes of stir-fried vegetables on a tray and placed them on the table.
Dazalu Gong grabbed a handful of stir-fried vegetables and put them into his mouth and chewed a few bites.
"Well, it's delicious.
Not only do the Han people have exquisite clothes and good tea, but they are also worth learning from us Tubo people in terms of food.
The taste is really good.
Other Tibetan generals also ate the vegetables with their hands.
However, these vegetables were just fried and were still a little hot.
Some of the Tubo generals screamed when they were so hot that they praised the deliciousness after eating them.
A Tubo captain shouted: "Marshal, the Han people really know how to enjoy it.
This food is so delicious.
Now that we have captured Shanzhou, we will not leave anymore.
Eat delicious and spicy food here every day, how comfortable it is." ah" Dazalukong laughed and said, "Is this a comfortable life?"
The Tubo generals all agreed: "Yes, these days are so comfortable.
It is much warmer than us in Tubo.
It is great to be able to wear such beautiful clothes and have such delicious food late.
We will occupy this place."
I won’t leave again.”
Dazhalu Gong smiled and scolded: "You bunch of worthless things, does this satisfy you?
I tell you, I will not only lead you to capture Hexi and Longyou, but also lead you to kill all the way to the capital of the Tang Dynasty."
Chang'an, the city of Chang'an is resplendent with gold everywhere, beauties abound, and the food is better than what you are late for.
You can live in bigger and more beautiful houses.
You no longer have to live in shabby stone houses and tents that are leaking everywhere."
The Tubo generals all cheered: "Okay, okay, we will follow the marshal to fight to Chang'an and enjoy all the glory and wealth."
"Hahaha" Smiling, Dazalugong remembered something but stopped laughing, and said: "Based on the details, the Tang State has sent General Zhao Ziliang with 200,000 troops to deal with us.
I fought with this Zhao Ziliang back then.
After a few battles, this person will be difficult to deal with.
If we want to kill him in Chang'an, we must defeat him first."
All the Tibetan generals said one after another: "Marshal, don't worry, we will work hard to kill the enemy.
The Tang army came from afar and is exhausted.
They will not be our opponent."
Dazalugong frowned and said, "That's what I say, but we still have to be careful.
The 200,000 soldiers and horses in our hands are already 80% of the entire Tibetan army.
Once defeated, I can't attack Zanpu."
Explain it” At this time, a Tibetan soldier ran in and bowed down: "Marshal, Zamp is here."
Dazalugong was startled, "Why did you say that Zanpu is here?"

"Yes, Marshal" "Where" “Already arrived in Linqiang” Dazalugong said angrily: "Isn't this nonsense?
Why didn't Zanpu send someone to tell him before he came?
Although our army has wiped out the area south of the Qilian Mountains these days, there are still many Tang troops fleeing in the mountains and forests. , if these defeated troops of the Tang Army suddenly come out to attack Zampu's team, it will be in trouble soon.
Everyone, follow me to greet Zampu."
The generals stood up and understood: "Yes, Marshal" Dazalukong led his generals on horseback to Linqiang.
It only took one morning to meet Xisongde Zampu and his escort team who had already arrived in Xiping.
Dazalugong jumped off the horse, walked forward quickly and bowed to a young Tibetan man in costume on the horse, saying: "Dazalugong pays homage to Zanpu.
I am late to greet you.
Please forgive Zanpu."
This is the current Tubo Zangpu Xisongde.
Xisongde was only thirteen years old when he came to the throne.
At that time, there was a rebellion by the Lang family and the Mo family in Tubo.
It was Dazalugong who supported Xisongde as the throne and led the troops to put down Lang.
The rebellion of the Clan and the Mo Clan.
Now that Xisunde has grown up, he is a young and vigorous man.
When he was strong and wanted to make some achievements, the rebellion within the Tang Dynasty made Xisongde think that this was a rare opportunity to make achievements.
He needed to make achievements to make the Tubo people think that he was a capable Zanpu.
He wanted to use this to establish his prestige in the hearts of the Tubo people.
Xisongde respected Dazalu Gong very much.
He jumped off his horse and helped Dazalu Gong up and said: "I didn't inform you before coming, so I came rashly.
How can I blame you?
You have achieved such a big success this time."
Victory, I'm very happy, I couldn't help but come here in person, you won't be unhappy, right?"
These words made Dazalugong really unable to be angry.
He shook his head helplessly and said: "Zanpu has said so, how can I be angry?
It's just that Zanpu's decision this time is a bit reckless.
Hexi Longyou has not been completely convinced."
Our army has captured many places, and there are still Tang troops hiding in the mountains and forests.
What if these Tang troops attack Zampu, how can I explain to my subjects?"
Xisongde smiled and said: "I have Marshal Dazalukong by my side.
Who can hurt me?
Do you think that's right?"
Dazalugong couldn't say anything, so he could only say: "Zanpu, this place is not far from Shanzhou City.
Why don't we go to Shanzhou first and wait for Zanpu to settle down?"
"Okay, then let's set off for Shanzhou.
I heard that Shanzhou is the administrative seat of Longyou.
I want to see what that place is like."
After another half-day of walking, Xisongde finally walked into Shanzhou City under the guidance of Dazalugong.
When Xisongde saw the tall city and the wide streets in Shanzhou, he couldn't help but exclaimed: "This is the city of the Tang Dynasty.
The buildings and cities are indeed extraordinary.
We in Tibet don’t have cities or walls.
This street is so spacious and the road surface is so smooth."
Dazalugong took Xisongde around the city of Shanzhou again, and finally took him to eat Han Chinese stir-fry at the Shanzhou government office, which Xisongde was full of praise for.
Xisongde Zampu’s father is Xidezu Zanpu, who is the great-great-grandson of Songtsen Gampo, the leader of Tubo, and Princess Wencheng of the Tang Dynasty.
Xisongdezu also married Princess Jincheng.

When Xisongde was born, Princess Jincheng He is already dead, which means that he was born from the ancestor of Xi De and another woman.
Therefore, Xi Songde only has the blood of Princess Wencheng in his body.
In other words, his blood relationship with the Tang Dynasty royal family is very distant.
After having enough wine and food, Sisunde asked Dazalukong: "What are you going to do next?"
Dazalugong said: "Zanpu, next I think that on the one hand, we should continue to attack Hexi, occupy the entire Hexi area, and cut off the connection between Tang State and the Western Regions.
If he does, their strength will be greatly reduced; on the other hand, Taking advantage of the Tang Dynasty In the face of civil strife, we must push as far east as possible, capture more territory in the Tang Kingdom, and let more people follow the army.
As long as the army hits, let the people settle down wherever it goes.
As time goes by, the land occupied will belong to our Tubo Kingdom. " Xisongde was overjoyed and said: "Okay, okay, Dazalukong, your idea is very similar to mine.
Isn't there a saying in the Tang Dynasty, which is to take advantage of your illness to kill you?
Now we are going to take advantage of the Tang Dynasty to take advantage of it."
If you mess with them and dig out a piece of flesh, you can do it boldly and I will fully support you."
Dazalu saluted respectfully: "Thank you very much, Zanpu."
At this time, a centurion walked in quickly and bowed down: "Greetings to Zampu and Marshal.
According to the investigation of the Tang Army, it was learned yesterday that General Zhao Ziliang of the Tang Army led an army of 200,000 from Jincheng towards Shanzhou, with 80,000 cavalry. 120,000 infantrymen are 160 miles away from Shanzhou."
Sisongde and Dazalugong glanced at each other.
Sisongde said to Dazalugong: "I have always heard you say how powerful this Zhao Ziliang is in fighting.
After all, I have never seen it with my own eyes.
This time I have the opportunity to meet him face to face."
Pass the trick" Dazalugong became anxious and said quickly: "No, Zan Pu, you have a noble status, and you are invisible to swords, guns and arrows on the battlefield.
If anything happens to you, I will definitely be responsible for your death."
Xisongde waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, Zhao Ziliang is nearly forty years old, and I am in my prime, why can't I still defeat him, an old man?
Needless to say, I said I won't interfere with you, and I won't interfere with you.
You Just fight how you want to fight.”
Dazalukong couldn't help but smile bitterly after hearing this.
He said in his heart that age is not a factor in fighting.
The younger the better, especially for senior generals, the more experience the better.
Dazalukong regained his composure and asked the centurion of the scout cavalry: "Besides this, have you discovered anything else?"
The centurion said: "It's strange to say that the Tang Army marched only thirty-four miles every day, and they walked too slowly.
It seemed that they were not in a hurry.
We wanted to get closer to investigate, but the Tang Army's guard posts were particularly vigilant.
Several times Discover us” Dazalugong frowned and said, "It's not right to only march thirty or forty miles in one day.
This is not normal.
What the hell is Zhao Ziliang doing?
Why does he only march thirty-four miles in one day?"
Xisongde also said: "There is indeed something fishy about this matter.
The Tang army may be brewing some conspiracy."
Dazalugong calculated and said: "The Tang army is now one hundred and fifty miles away from Shanzhou.
According to their current marching speed, it will take five days to reach Shanzhou City.
I understand, so that's how it is."
Sisund asked: "What did you think of?"
Dazalugong said: "This time the Tang army came from their hinterland.
These people are not adapted to the high terrain and climate here.
The reason why Zhao Ziliang slowed down his marching speed was probably because he wanted to make time for his The soldiers of the army under my command have adapted to the high terrain here.
If they march too fast, many people will get sick.
I have heard that this happened often in the Tang army, and in severe cases, people would die."

Xisongde nodded, "I have also heard of this kind of thing.
Regarding Tang Jun's situation, what do you decide to do?"
Dazalugong said: "Since Zhao Ziliang has this plan, why don't I fulfill it?
You must know that this situation cannot be solved in a day or two.
Once this situation occurs on a large scale, the combat effectiveness of the Tang Army will be greatly reduced. , wouldn’t it be very convenient if we attack again then?”
Xisongde thought for a while, "What you said makes sense, and if they come here in a hurry, they will inevitably be ill-prepared in terms of food, fodder, luggage, etc.
As long as we delay them for a while, they will not only be acclimated to the local environment, but also have troubles."
When there is insufficient food, grass and baggage, it will be much easier for us to attack again.
I support what you say."
"If you say so, we will withdraw from Shanzhou and retreat towards the West Sea":
