Song He was grabbed by Yang Peng's clothes and thrown up into the air. He couldn't help but screamed in surprise. Then he fell heavily to the ground with a bang. He was knocked upside down and his eyes were filled with stars. He couldn't recover for a long time. When the Tubo soldiers saw this scene, they could not help but be frightened. Seeing the Ming Emperor's eyes sweeping over, everyone felt a majestic feeling as if they were facing a sacred mountain. They couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts, and they all dropped their weapons and knelt down.
Yang Peng raised his voice and said: "The Ming Dynasty belongs to the people. Now that you are the people of the Ming Dynasty, you are no longer slaves! All of you will no longer become anyone's property. No one can infringe on you, otherwise you will be punished. Suffer severe sanctions! Each of you will get your own land and your own house. From now on, you can live for yourself!"
The Tubo soldiers felt as if all the shackles placed on them had been removed in an instant. They couldn't help but cheered and shouted in Tubo language "Long live your majesty!" Your Majesty at this time naturally refers to His Majesty the Ming Dynasty! Song He had come back to his senses, and when he saw his soldiers all cheering for the Ming Emperor, he couldn't help but turn pale. A sudden realization came to his mind, and he felt that there was no hope of Tubo's restoration!
In the palace hall, Song He was escorted in front of Yang Peng. When Song He saw Yang Peng, he couldn't help but knelt down, kowtowed and said, "The guilty minister pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor!"
Yang Peng asked: "How many troops are there in Burang Yaze and Kashmir?"
Song He said: "There are probably less than five thousand people, mainly the pro-army troops around the emperor."
Yang Peng nodded and said: "It's about what I expected." He glanced at Song He and said, "What agreement did you reach with the Tianzhu people? What did you promise to the Tianzhu people?" Song He said: "The Tianzhu people have important matters. After that, we will cede all the south of the Yarlung Zangbo River to Tianzhu, and the Tianzhu people promised to send troops to help us defeat, defeat..." At this point, I dare not say any more.
Yang Peng asked with a smile: "Do you think the people of Tianzhu will keep their promises?" Song He sighed and said: "Now that things have happened, we have no choice!" Yang Peng said teasingly: "That's how people are. .Always think about what you have lost, but don’t think about how to keep what you already have! In fact, if you accept my previous conditions, except for not having military power, you will retain all the privileges! But the people’s hearts are not enough, I always want more! In the end, I can only draw water from a bamboo basket but in vain!"
Songhe frowned and said: "We are here for glory..."
Yang Peng laughed and said sarcastically: "The so-called glory is just a fig leaf to cover up interests! You have illusions and are unwilling to sacrifice some power, so you have reached this point!" Song He remained silent. Yang Peng glanced at him and said: "No matter what the reason is, it doesn't matter now! Tubo will definitely become history!"
Songhe's heart trembled and he asked: "Has His Majesty's troops already attacked?"
Yang Peng nodded. Song He still had hope in his heart and said: "Qiongguo and Pingdu Pass are still in the hands of our army. Both locations are easy to defend and difficult to attack, especially Pingdu Pass. It can be said that one man can guard ten thousand men." Don’t open! His Majesty’s army once suffered at the Pingdu Pass! Although the Ming army is strong, it will never be able to attack the Pingdu Pass!”
Yang Peng smiled and said, "Then just pray that Pingdu Mountain Pass can save you again."
Song He had doubts in his heart. He felt that the other party seemed to have a way to deal with Pingdu Pass, but he couldn't figure out what it was. He raised his head, glanced at Yang Peng, and asked, "I wonder what method your Majesty will use to seize Pingdu Mountain Pass?" Yang Peng smiled and said, "Watching a play would be meaningless if the plot was told in advance. You'd better be slow." Just wait and see." Then he said to the two sergeants who were escorting him: "Take General Songhe back." The two sergeants agreed and took Songhe down.
Yan Ji said worriedly: "Husband, I am really worried about whether our plan can go smoothly! As Songhe said, the Pingdu Mountain Pass is extremely dangerous. If there is an accident, we will fall short!"
Yang Peng chuckled and said: "It's normal for any accident to happen on the battlefield. Even if an accident happens, it's nothing. We just have to adapt to circumstances when the time comes."
Yan Ji looked at her lover's side face and sighed: "Husband, you seem to particularly enjoy war!"
Yang Peng touched his nose and said with a smile: "When you say that, it seems like your husband is a lunatic who likes war!" Yan Ji pursed her lips and asked, "Don't you think your husband likes war?"
Yang Peng frowned and thought for a while, "I guess I like it." He smiled self-deprecatingly, glanced at Yan Ji, and said, "It seems that your husband is indeed a war madman!" Yan Ji smiled softly and put her delicate hand in He took the palm of his lover's hand, raised his head and looked at his lover's face, and said: "My husband is a great hero, so naturally he likes war!" Yang Peng smiled, hugged Yan Ji's slender waist, lowered his head and kissed her red lips.
Yan Ji remembered something and frowned: "I'm not worried about the Tubo people. They are just a candle in the wind now. But I am a little worried about the Tianzhu people!"
Yang Peng smiled and said, "There's nothing to worry about."
Yan Ji rolled her eyes at her lover and said: "The Tianzhu people are attacking Dali with an army of more than one million, but our army is only three hundred thousand. If we are not careful, the situation will be out of control!"
Yang Peng said with a smile: "You are not completely right. It is not just the people of Tianzhu. If my estimate is correct, the Yue Li Dynasty will also have something to think about when they see the menacing Tianzhu coming. Maybe they will invade Bagan!" Yan Ji! His face changed, and he asked anxiously: "What should we do?" Then he said suspiciously: "Don't those Yue people learn their lesson? They have been defeated twice by our army, how dare they come here? ?”
Yang Peng thought: "The people of the Yue and Li Dynasties have been famous for being stalkers since ancient times. If they can learn their lesson, then the sun will definitely come out from the west!" He paused, "But they suffered two consecutive defeats. They are not small, and they must not dare to be too rash. I think they will wait and see the success or failure first, and then wait for the opportunity to take action. If the Tianzhu people gain the upper hand, I am afraid it will give the Yue people a lot of encouragement and invade Bagan with a large army. !
Yan Ji smiled and said: "My husband has seen the Yue people so thoroughly, I must have already made a plan to target them, right?"
Yang Peng shook his head and said: "No. I never thought that the Yue people would dare to scratch the tiger's beard after experiencing two consecutive defeats, so there was no plan at all. If it hadn't been earlier today If I had received the urgent report forwarded by Yang Guihua, I would never have thought that Yue Li Chao would still dare to jump around!"
Yan Ji couldn't help but feel worried and said: "What if the Yue and Li Dynasties use all their strength to attack Bagan?"
Yang Peng scratched his head and said: "Soldiers come and cover up the water with the earth, why bother!" Yan Ji couldn't help showing an annoyed look, and said angrily: "It's already this time, husband, can you be more serious!"
Yang Peng smiled and said, "Your husband is very serious!" Yan Ji rolled her eyes at Yang Peng. Yang Peng chuckled and said: "On the battlefield, there is life and defeat, so there is no need to be too obsessed. At worst, Duan Zhixian and the others will just lead the army to break through and retreat to Dali." Yan Ji was stunned and said angrily: "You It's open-minded!" Yang Peng said with a smile: "This is the mentality I should have when leading an army in a war. We must strive for victory, but we don't have to be obsessed with the gains and losses of one city or one land. When necessary, we can give up some land." Yan Ji felt that what her lover said made sense and couldn't help but nodded.
Yang Peng thought: "We have done everything we should do. The final result will depend on the performance of the frontline soldiers and God's will. The so-called plan depends on man and God will do it!" He spat and hugged him. Yan Ji gave her a kiss and said with a bad smile: "We have nothing to do now. Being idle is idle, why not do something happy." Yan Ji's heart skipped a beat and she rolled her eyes at her lover charmingly. Yang Peng moved his index finger, picked up Yan Ji and walked towards the back. Yan Ji lay in her lover's arms, looking at her lover tenderly.
When looking at the people in the city, they heard the noise of fighting pouring into the city from the west, and they were all frightened. However, not long after, the noise outside disappeared without a trace and returned to silence. Everyone was suspicious and uneasy, but they didn't dare to go out to check. The people in the entire city stayed in this uneasiness and anxiety until dawn. People opened their doors one after another, looking around with various emotions in their arms. When they discovered that the patrols on the streets were still the Ming army, and the flag flying on the city was still the two-winged flying tiger flag, they finally knew the outcome of last night's war. The common people were pleasantly surprised, but the nobles were disappointed. As for the battle situation last night, everyone was very curious, no matter which group it was involved in, so there was a lot of discussion in the tavern and teahouse, and all kinds of rumors were spread everywhere.
Moïse led hundreds of thousands of Tianzhu troops to besiege Pibo City and fought for more than twenty days in a row. They suffered heavy casualties but made no progress. The strength of the Ming army finally gave Moise a personal experience of the Tianzhu army. There were only five or six thousand soldiers and horses guarding the city, while our own army attacked the city with hundreds of thousands of troops. They fought for more than 20 days and were unable to break through. city defense! The morale of the Tianzhu army has inevitably plummeted, and Moise has stopped organizing attacks in the past few days. He is adjusting his deployment and preparing to use other methods to break through Pibo City. At the same time, he is considering whether he can bypass Pibo City and capture Luozhong directly? In Moise's view, if the logic point can be captured with a surprise force, the enemy army will definitely be in chaos, and our own army can take the opportunity to sweep across and win the final victory.
In the Tianzhu military camp, groups of Tianzhu soldiers gathered around the fire, all of them hanging their heads and looking depressed.
Not all armies can maintain strong fighting spirit from beginning to end. The armies of most ethnic groups cannot maintain fighting spirit for a long time even when the situation is good. The Indians are a typical representative of them. They have been able to continuously attack the city for more than twenty days. It is very rare.
A fast horse galloped from a distance, went straight to the military camp, and reined in the horse until it reached the big tent. The knight didn't wait for the horse to stop completely, he jumped off the horse and ran straight into the tent. At this time, Moise and his generals were standing in front of a large sand table to discuss strategies. When they heard the rapid footsteps coming from the door, they couldn't help but raise their heads and look over.
The knight bowed and reported: "General, my subordinates have brought urgent military information from the Tibetans!..."
Moise asked anxiously: "Have the Tibetans already invaded Luoche City?" During this period of time, Moise was most worried about nothing else, but that the Tubo people would capture Luoche City first. In this way, it can be said to be very detrimental to their plan of Tianzhu to control the entire Tubo! However, as soon as these words came out, it felt unbelievable, because the Ming army faced by our side only had a few thousand people, so it means that the tens of thousands of Ming's main forces should be in the direction of Tubo. Our own army of hundreds of thousands faced thousands of Ming troops. They fought very hard for more than 20 days but could not make any progress. Could it be that the tens of thousands of Tibetan soldiers could defeat the tens of thousands of Ming soldiers and horses? is it possible?
Just when Moise was in doubt, the messenger hurriedly shook his head and said: "No! How could the Tibetans be the opponents of the Ming Army? Their attacking force has been completely wiped out, and the Ming Army has swept through Burang Yaze and Kashmir. , the local nobles turned against each other one after another, and Tubo was completely finished! It is said that the emperor of Tubo has been captured!"
The people present were shocked when they suddenly heard the news. Everyone looked at each other, unable to accept the news for a moment.
Moise said angrily: "The Tubo army has tens of thousands of troops. Even if they can't defeat the Ming army, they can't resist it by relying on dangerous places such as Pingdu Pass, right? Even if they can't resist it, they can't be defeated so quickly. !" All the generals agreed, not believing that this was true.
The messenger said: "It is said that the Ming army deliberately allowed the Tubo people to capture Qiongguo very smoothly, and also deliberately allowed the Tubo people to advance straight in. The Tubo people thought that the main force of the Ming army was on our side, so they were unprepared and fell into the hands of the Ming army. Encirclement, the entire army was wiped out in the first battle! At the same time, an elite group of Ming Dynasty troops had disguised themselves as Tubo troops and deceived the door of Qiongguo, and then launched a surprise attack. Qiongguo's Tibetan defenders were caught off guard and could not resist, and soon they were all The army was wiped out. Then this Ming elite used the same method to capture Pingdu Pass. Soon after, Ming general Zhang Xian and Yang Gui led an army through Pingdu Pass and swept away the remaining Tibetan troops. It is said that at this time, the Tubo monarchs, ministers and nobles were as strong as In the dream, the enemies had already arrived at the city, and they didn't know what had happened. When the Tubo people realized that the Ming army was coming, it was already too late. At this time, the local nobles switched sides one after another, and Burang Yaze And Kashmir fell into the hands of the Ming Dynasty in an instant!"
There was no sound in the big tent, and everyone could hear the drop of a needle. Everyone looked pale, and they were all shocked by the sudden reversal of the situation, and felt panic-stricken.
Moise didn't know what to do for a moment. He just felt that it would be difficult to defeat the Ming army if he continued to fight with only one of his own troops. At the same time, a kind of fear could not help but arise in the heart. In fact, not only Moise, but everyone present could not help but feel the same fear, the fear of the Ming Army. In their minds, the Ming army was more ferocious than tigers, leopards, and wolves, and more cunning than the most cunning fox.
There were hurried footsteps at the door again. Everyone came back to their senses and quickly looked towards the door. They saw an officer who looked a little embarrassed with blood on his body and rushed in. It seemed that he had just escaped from a big battle. The officer looked anxious and said: "Generalissimo, it's bad, the enemy army, the enemy army is advancing rapidly towards Gangtokting!"
When everyone heard this, they were immediately shocked. It turns out that Gangtok and Tingbu are the rear transit bases for the Tianzhu army and their only channels back to the mainland. At this point, it is necessary to briefly introduce Gangtok and Tingbu. Gangtok is the capital of Sikkim, and Sikkim is a state in India in modern society, close to Tibet. However, in the Middle Ages, Sikkim was actually part of Tubo. ; and Tingbu is the capital of Bhutan in modern society, and this place was also the territory of Tibet in the Middle Ages. Previously, the Tianzhu people took the opportunity to invade Tibet and occupied the Sikkim and Bhutan areas.
One of the generals said in a panic: "If Gangtok and Tingbu are occupied by them, we, we will be doomed!" Others were also in a panic, and the scene was noisy.
Moise frowned and shouted, "Why are you panicking?" Everyone's hearts trembled and they couldn't help but become quiet.
Moise asked the officer angrily: "The Ming army has just occupied Bujan Yaze and Kashmir. How could it be possible to attack the east so quickly?"
The officer hurriedly said: "It's not that Ming army, it's another Ming army. They crossed the Yarlung Zangbo River from near Lazi, and then went straight into Gangtok and Tingbu!"
"How did you know?"
The officer said: "My subordinates belong to the defense force near Lazi. They crossed the Yarlung Zangbo River after they wiped out our unit! Only one of my subordinates escaped from that force!"
Moise frowned, feeling confused and feeling that the situation was already very dangerous! Moise now has a rough understanding of the other party's overall plan. The Ming emperor played a grand game of chess, deliberately showing weakness on both sides. For his own side, he wanted to drag his own army near Pibo. For the Tibetan army, he wanted to lure the enemy to gather in depth and annihilate them. Then the main force was divided into two groups, one group attacking and destroying the remnants of Tibet, and the other group crossing the Yarlung Zangbo River from Lazi and heading straight for Gangtok and Tingbu to cut off their own retreat. Once Gangtok and Tingbu fall,... When Moise thought of this, he didn't dare to think any further. He just felt that the Ming Emperor was really terrifying!
Moise felt that the situation was urgent and he must immediately return to the army and surrender Gangtok and Tingbu. As soon as I thought about this, I immediately sent an order: "Baal!"
A strong man with a strong body and dark skin came out and accepted the application. This man was Barr, the most powerful general under Moise. Moise ordered: "You immediately lead all the cavalry back to Gangtok, and you must not let the Ming Dynasty succeed!" Barr responded with a sound like a loud bell, and ran down. Moise immediately ordered all armies to break out of their camps and withdraw southward.
Standing on the city wall, Yang Dezheng couldn't help but look happy when he saw the Tianzhu army hurriedly breaking camp and retreating south, discarding all the heavy supplies. Immediately ordered all armies to attack. The city gate opened wide, and Yang Dezheng took the lead, leading thousands of warriors to rush out of the city. The people of Tianzhu did not expect that such a small number of Ming troops would dare to fight. At this time, they were retreating in a hurry. Seeing the Ming Xiaorui coming with great momentum, they immediately became frightened. Before the battle, the Tianzhu rear army was already in a commotion. .
Yang Dezheng led the Ming army to rush into the Tianzhu army, slashing with swords and axes, and killing with spears and swords. The Tianzhu people were killed and ran around in all directions, howling like ghosts and wolves. Although the strength of the Ming army was several times that of the Ming army, they had no power to fight back. Those who fled for their lives, those who surrendered surrendered, and those who pretended to be dead pretended to be dead; the Ming army marched forward indomitably and was invincible. This didn't look like a battle at all, but more like a one-sided massacre.
Yang Dezheng led the warriors to defeat the enemy's rear army in one go, and continued to advance, driving the broken troops straight towards the enemy's army.
Moise was horrified when he saw the chaos in the rear and the smoke and dust billowing straight towards the Chinese army. Thinking that a large Ming army was coming, he hurriedly ordered the army to stop retreating and form a formation on the spot to fight.
The Tianzhu army hurriedly formed their formation. As soon as they formed their formation, the defeated troops came rushing in like a tidal wave. Moise was shocked, and then he saw the enemy troops following behind the defeated troops. He immediately understood the enemy's intentions and shouted urgently: "Fire the arrows! Fire the arrows immediately!" The generals immediately gave the order, and the bows and crossbows were fired. When the soldiers heard the order, they felt a little at a loss. However, the military order could not be violated. Although the crossbowmen were unwilling to fire arrows at their own people, they still followed the order and bent their bows and fired arrows at the rushing crowd. rain!
Arrows fell into the crowd, and many people were shot to the ground. The scene was like countless ripples in the tide. Those who were hit by arrows screamed loudly and fell to the ground. Those who were not hit by arrows were so frightened that they subconsciously avoided the military formation and ran towards both sides. As a result, the rushing troops divided into two torrents and rushed past the two sides of the military formation. .
Then the mighty Ming army appeared in front of the Tianzhu soldiers. When the soldiers of Tianzhu saw the Ming army galloping forward, like tigers, like wolves attacking, with bloodthirsty murderous intent, they couldn't help but feel shocked, and they couldn't help but take a step back.
Moise came to his senses, raised his scimitar and shouted sternly: "Fire the arrow!"
Only then did the crossbowmen react and fired arrows quickly, and the arrows flew towards the rushing Ming army.
Raise your shield!
The Ming army raised their large shields together, and thousands of shields immediately formed a curtain covering the sky. In an instant, a dense rain of arrows roared down, making a loud crackling sound on top of the shield! However, such a powerful arrow rain attack did not cause any damage to Yan Yun's army!
Seeing that such a dense rain of arrows had no effect, the people of Tianzhu could not help but panic as the huge shield kept approaching like a huge monster.
The Tianzhu crossbowmen kept firing arrows, and the Ming army kept advancing in the dense rain of arrows. The ground was already densely covered with arrows, which made people shudder!
Soon after, the Ming army's shield formation approached fifty steps in front of the enemy's line. When another round of enemy arrows passed, the shields in front suddenly withdrew, and nearly a thousand Ming troops suddenly fired with repeating crossbows. The dense arrows rushed towards the Tianzhu army formation like locusts. The people in front of the Tianzhu army formation were seen turning on their backs, and the Tianzhu soldiers were shot to the ground one after another!
What happened after all, let’s see what happens next.
