After half a month of rest, the morale of the Western Qin Army, its servants, and mercenaries returned to its peak state.
The battle of Zhao Ziliang's command to defeat Shakudai Moha opened the eyes of all the servants and mercenaries.
They saw War is not simply a barbaric act of violence, it is also an art.
Before that, they had never known that war could be fought like this.
Zhao Ziliang's commanding ability was also fully demonstrated in this battle.
It is not difficult to command an army of 100,000 people.
It is not particularly difficult to command an army of 200,000, 300,000 or even a million people.
Since ancient times, there have been many generals or commanders.
There are hundreds of thousands of troops, and there are people who command millions of troops, but none of these people have ever deployed so many troops on the same battlefield, but distributed them on multiple different battlefields.
It is not something that just anyone can do to put 100,000 people on the same battlefield to form a neat and orderly formation without any chaos, and to have them command like an arm.
Even the Tubo servants and mercenaries did not have much experience. , but everyone was impressed by Zhao Ziliang's commanding ability.
They had never seen anyone commanding the army so easily, so they were truly loyal and surrendered.
"It's sunny."
Zhao Ziliang, wearing a cloak, stepped on the snow on his post and looked up at the sun coming out after the clouds dispersed, and said to Chen Qing who had just walked over.
Chen Qing said: "Yes, it has been snowing for a long time.
It stopped, stopped and started snowing again.
Today it is finally sunny."
Zhao Ziliang breathed in the hot air and looked at the endless mountain ranges, snow-capped Himalayas and the valley plains at the foot of the mountains in the south.
He opened his arms and took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
Chen Qing and others stood quietly.
After a long time, Zhao Ziliang opened his eyes, exhaled a breath, and said: "People always like to climb high and look far away, because standing high can see far, and the field of vision will be broadened, and you will not be like a frog at the bottom of a well.
But standing high will also feel Look at your own insignificance.
In front of the towering Everest, the top of the world, what does an individual mean?
For billions of years, this mountain has always stood here, but the people here have changed from generation to generation.
Life is too short.
Just a few decades pass by in a blink of an eye.
If we don’t cherish the good time, we will wait until we die.
Only then will you realize that we have left nothing to this world, and only then will we regret it.”
Zhao Ziliang's words made Chen Qing, Du Fu and others feel emotional for a while.
Zhao Ziliang continued: "Many people have been pursuing immortality since ancient times, but if a person does nothing in his life, what's the use of living longer?
Later they will find that the things worth remembering and missing are really Not much, which is sad.”
At this point, Zhao Ziliang calmed down and changed his tone: "Today is the Zhongyuan Festival.
It is celebrated in the Central Plains, Chang'an, Xinjing and Western Qin.
Today we also let the soldiers celebrate the most grand festival of the year.
Tomorrow Begin to make preparations.
Three days later, the army will set off to march towards Luoche City.
They will first capture the largest and most heartfelt city in Tibet, and then clean up the surrounding areas."
The generals and officials all clasped their fists and bowed their hands in salute: "No" On the eighteenth day of the first lunar month in AD 767, the fifth year of the Xinghan Dynasty, Zhao Ziliang led an army of 100,000 people to march eastward along the Yalu River towards Luoxe City.
Ma Sui was ordered to command 10,000 elite cavalry composed of the Western Qin Army and the Tubo Army's servants and mercenaries as the vanguard and set off first to clear the way for the main force of the army.
Zhao Ziliang followed up with the main force of the army, one day behind the vanguard.
The army marched eastward along the Yalu River, first crossed the Nianchu River, and then successively captured Niangmocha, Zangrong, Qushui, Nietang and other places at an extremely fast speed.
Along the way, various lords, large and small, either surrendered or were defeated.
In order to protect themselves, the Luoxue Dynasty had to gather all the troops of the surrounding lords, large and small, together with its own troops, a total of 100,000 troops, to fight the Western Qin army.
In the fifth year of the Han Dynasty, on the first day of February, on the banks of the Duilong River, a tributary of the Luoxe River, the army of the Western Qin Dynasty had arrived here for a day.
It was less than thirty miles away from Luoxe City.

This made the princes and lords of the Luoxe Dynasty very upset.
Shocked, the West Qin Army's advance was far faster than they imagined, and they had to rush to send troops to resist.
The Luosu River runs through the middle of Luosu City.
Luosu City is a city without walls, which means there is no danger to defend.
Without any danger to defend, the rulers of the Luosu Dynasty could only send troops to fight.
The Western Qin army camped fifteen miles away from each other, ready to fight at any time.
On the banks of the Duilong River, Zhao Ziliang was wearing a cloak and holding a waist knife and walking slowly by the river.
The snow water flowing from the Nyenchen Tanglha Mountains in the north was gurgling in the Duilong River.
Chen Qing, Du Fu, Xuansi and other ministers The generals followed.
Zhao Ziliang looked at the army camp of the Luoche Dynasty on the other side of the river and asked: "What happened to the Luoche Dynasty after the split of Tubo?
Who is in power now?"
Xuan Shiba was in charge of intelligence matters.
He clasped his fists and said, "Back to your Majesty, the current ruler of the Luoche Dynasty is Moude, the son of Xisongde Zampu.
Xisongde Zampu was killed by the King when he was fighting with our army.
Killed with one arrow, when he was only eighteen years old, his son Mou De was only two years old.
After his death, civil strife broke out in the Tubo Kingdom.
Two-year-old Mou De was made king by the veteran Zadayan and the veteran Kilixu.
Now Mou De is only ten years old.
All major military affairs of the Luoche Dynasty are controlled by this.
The two decided that ten-year-old Mou De was just their puppet."
"Zadayan and Kilisu" Zhao Ziliang turned around in surprise and asked: "Are these two old guys not dead yet?
They are people of the same era as Xue Na.
They are probably over eighty years old now."
Xuan Shiba said: "Yes, they are not dead yet" Zhao Ziliang immediately pointed to the Tibetan army camp on the other side of the river and asked: "Who is the commander-in-chief of the Tibetan army on the other side?"
Xuan Shiba replied: "It is Kilixuzadayan who has been unable to move a few years ago.
Kilixu's health is not bad.
Although he is over eighty years old, he does not look senile.
Only he can be qualified to be the commander-in-chief this time."
According to reports from the spies at the Rula Sentinel Camp, this time Kilixu gathered all the troops of the Luoche Dynasty and some of the surrounding lords, a total of 100,000 troops, including 60,000 infantry and 40,000 cavalry."
Zhao Ziliang nodded and said: "Zadayan, I heard of this man's name when I was still a team officer in Shule Town, Anxi.
At that time, he was still a big talker in the Tubo Kingdom.
I didn't expect that after many years of retirement, Again, this Kilichu is also a famous figure, right?
Have you tried the depth of this river?"
Chen Qing cupped his fists and said: "We have tried it.
The middle is more than three feet.
Under normal circumstances, we cannot cross the river unless the river is frozen.
If we build a bridge to cross the river, I am afraid that the Tibetan army on the other side of the river will not stand idly by."
Zhao Ziliang asked: "So we can't cross the river yet?"
"The river is not wide, and the current is not fast.
Wei Chen has sent people to find a suitable place to cross the river.
Not all river sections are so deep.
Besides, if we can't cross the river here, we can still cross the river from the south.
Kili It is unrealistic for Xu to rely on the river to stop us."
Zhao Ziliang shook his head and said: "Kilixu is not a fool.
He must have sent many sentries to patrol along the river bank.

And our army has many soldiers and horses.
If they all cross the river, the noise caused by them will not be small.
As long as we have a little If there is any movement across the river, their patrol posts will notice it.
As long as Kilisu gets the news, he will have time to carefully deploy his troops to prevent us from crossing the river."
After thinking about it, Zhao Ziliang said: "There is no rush in this matter.
Let the soldiers rest for a few days before talking about it.
Xuan Si, you lead 10,000 horses and quietly go north along this river late at night, a hundred miles away in the north."
Grab some labor and let these people prepare tools for digging earth.
Since the river is not flowing quickly and is not particularly deep, we can simply build a dam from the upper reaches to cut off the river.
If the river dries up, I would like to see Kili How did Xu stop our army from attacking?"
Just as Xuan Si was about to agree, Du Fu said: "Your Majesty, build a dam to cut off the river.
I'm afraid the project will not be small."
Zhao Ziliang turned around and asked: "Is the project huge?
If we recruit 50,000 people, we can completely cut off this river that is not too deep and not too wide overnight.
After dawn, Kilixu will find our army."
He has already crossed the river and stood in front of him.
His expression must have been very rich at that time.
We must cut off the river overnight and send someone to report it before starting the work."
"I have been ordered to prepare now.
After dinner, we will set off at night after dark."
Xuan Si said with clasped fists, turned around and left.
Zhao Ziliang pointed to the Tibetan camp opposite and said: "I see that the Tubo people have fought with us for so many years and have learned how to set up a camp.
The camp in Kilixu is set up in a orderly manner."
Chen Qing smiled and said: "Yes, everyone can learn, and Kilixu is no exception."
On the afternoon of the third day of February, Xuan Si sent someone to report to Zhao Ziliang that he had organized troops to recruit 45,000 Tibetan people 120 miles to the north, and was preparing to dig earth and build dams overnight to cut off the river.
After receiving the report, Zhao Ziliang immediately ordered the entire army to prepare for battle.
At around midnight on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Zhao Ziliang was still sleeping soundly.
Chen Qing shouted outside the camp: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty" Zhao Ziliang stood up and responded: "Come in."
Chen Qing walked into the fight and clasped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, I'm very happy.
The river is about to dry up.
Looking at the current situation, in just one hour, the river will completely dry up."
Zhao Ziliang immediately stood up and said: "In the afternoon, I ordered you to light a fire and cook rice immediately, wake up all the zombies secretly, and after breakfast, cross the river to attack on time."
"Yes, Your Majesty" The Western Qin army moved very quickly.
The cooks had received the order last night, so they were well prepared and had breakfast ready very quickly.
After the soldiers finished eating, there was still two quarters of an hour before Chen time.
All the Tibetan patrols along the coast had been shot dead.
It only took less than half an hour for the 100,000 Western Qin army to collapse from the dry river bed.
When the army quietly came ashore, it was less than two miles away from the Tibetan army camp.
The army quietly reached the vicinity of the Tibetan army camp.
Zhao Ziliang stopped his horse and ordered: "Prepare bows and arrows.
Use rockets to strike a large area from a long distance.
Shoot ten rounds in a row.
After shooting, the cavalry launches a strong attack."
"yes" When waves of rockets were fired into the Tibetan camp, the Tibetan army's camp quickly burst into flames.
A large number of Tibetan soldiers who were still sleeping were burned all over.
