"Master Bai!"
"Master Bai is here!"
"Everyone, come out and see Master Bai!"
In the prison camp, Bai Song was surrounded by a group of Tang troops.
Everyone knelt on the ground and shouted Master Bai's name.
Although all of them looked very embarrassed, their eyes were full of hope after looking at Bai Song.
"Master Bai is here! We are all saved."
"Yeah, I didn't expect to see Master Bai here."
"General Zhang said that Master Bai is not a prisoner, but is here to negotiate with Tibet on behalf of the Tang Dynasty."
"Yes, as long as the negotiations are completed, we will be let go."
negotiation?
Bai Song frowned slightly.
At this time, Zhang Shuyuan walked up to Bai Song and whispered: "In order to give brothers an explanation, I can only say this. If you have any difficulties, explain it if you can. If you can't explain it, let them misunderstand it."
Bai Song turned around and took a deep look at Zhang Shuyuan, then nodded.
Yes, he appeared in the Tubo military camp to give an explanation to the soldiers.
If the soldiers knew that he had an unclear relationship with the Tubo princess, wouldn't he be accused of being a traitor in such a general environment?
Bai Song had never felt this way before, but after arriving at the prisoner camp, he suddenly felt like he had failed everyone.
There was still a war between the two countries, and he actually fell in love with the princess of the enemy country. It was unclear.
What kind of general is this?
Simply ridiculous!
Bai Song nodded heavily. He now realized that there were more important things to do, and shouted loudly: "Don't worry, everyone, I am negotiating terms with the Tubo army, and I will definitely try my best to find a way to save everyone. "
"Yes! Mr. Bai is omnipotent, and we all believe in Mr. Bai."
For a time, there were cheers in the prison camp.
Seeing that everyone was in a strong mood, Bai Song turned around and ordered the Tibetan soldier who brought him here: "Give the prisoners something good to eat tonight."
The Tubo soldier frowned and said to himself, "You don't even care about your identity, yet you are making demands here?"
But he didn't say it to his face. He just responded coldly: "Then you have to ask the princess for permission first."
After saying that, the man left.
Bai Song turned around and asked Zhang Shuyuan: "How were you arrested?"
Zhang Shuyuan frowned and said: "Because I have been unable to contact you, the large army is now led by an old general."
"Old General...Li Jing..."
"Yes! Because you took away the eldest lady. The old general was worried about the eldest lady, so he put on his armor again and went into battle."
"..." Bai Song was silent for a while. This was the first time he had received news from the rear since he left Chang'an. He didn't expect that the first news he heard would be so disturbing.
"General Lai sent five troops to the rear to look for you, and then he learned that General Hou was trapped at Jinyuan Gate. We wanted to go to Jinyuan Gate, but we were intercepted and killed on the way, and unfortunately we were captured."
Zhang Shuyuan's experience turned out to be exactly the same as Bai Song's. He was also caught on the way to Jinyuan Gate.
"How is the situation on the front line? Is it beneficial to us?"
"The situation gradually turned in our favor. The old general led the troops, and our army's momentum was high. At the beginning, we didn't know why the enemy's front line kept shrinking. When we arrived at Jinyuan Gate, we realized that General Hou's troops had occupied Jinyuan Gate! This Is it your and General Hou’s plan?”
Bai Song nodded.
Zhang Shuyuan couldn't help but sigh: "You are too reckless! An army of less than 10,000 actually went straight into the enemy's hinterland, and actually inserted itself into a key location like Jinyuan Gate! You guys are indispensable for the reversal of the situation on the front line! But! You don’t even think about how violent the enemy’s counterattack will be once the Jinyuan Gate is captured? How dare you people?"
Bai Song smiled: "Don't you think we are still guarding it? It shows that it is still very effective."
"General Hou is guarding the Jinyuan Gate, but Bai Song, why are you with the Tubo Princess? Where are the eldest lady and the princess?"
"I took Princess and Shu Wang to conquer Roko City. Do you believe it?"
"Pfft!" Zhang Shuyuan spat wildly and almost bit his tongue, "What? You captured Roko City? Do you still have soldiers on hand? How is that possible?"
"The mountain people have their own tricks!" Speaking of this, Bai Song really didn't know how to explain it, so he changed the subject and said, "I was also intercepted by the Tubo army on the way. I originally wanted to take the Tubo princess to the Jinyuan Gate. A hostage was used to delay time. Now, I have become a prisoner, and the princess is riding on my head."
"That's it..." Zhang Shuyuan finally understood Bai Song's difficulties. As long as it wasn't collaboration with the enemy or betrayal, he felt more at ease, "But in that case, why can you walk around at will in this military camp?"
"Hey, as you can see, Princess Tubo is a little interested in me."
Zhang Shuyuan was stunned, and then he could only smile and shake his head: "Brother Bai, although you are now a general, your charm is still the same as before!"
Bai Song laughed dryly, not knowing how to answer.
"Then I will make it clear to my brothers now. I didn't know the reason before, so I talked nonsense."
"No need, it's rare for brothers to have hope, so let them have hope. And I will try my best to send you away."
"In this case, Brother Bai just takes advantage of the princess's trust to find a way out for us."
Hearing this, Bai Song frowned slightly.
He could take advantage of Princess Tubo's trust, but Princess Tubo never guarded against him and told him not to have any wrong ideas.
Speaking of which, Princess Tubo treats him much better now than he did in Luoke City.
Now it's a bit unkind to take advantage of people's trust.
But Bai Song's thoughts only changed in an instant. It was related to the life and death of hundreds of people, and personal benevolence and righteousness were nothing!
Bai Song immediately became firm: "Don't worry, I will definitely find a way."
Zhang Shuyuan was full of hope for Bai Song and said nothing more.
Soon, the Tibetan soldier came back, and at the same time many people brought the leftover bones from the banquet.
Don't look at it as some leftovers or half-eaten food.
As long as it is meat, it is simply a miracle that it can be sent to the prison camp.
The prisoners were all crazy, scrambling for food, and they didn't know how long it had been since they had eaten such good food.
Seeing everyone eating so crazily, Bai Song still frowned.
This princess is really kind and righteous to herself.
Bai Song thought, stood up and said goodbye to Zhang Shuyuan.
Since the Tibetan soldiers were not around, it was inconvenient to say anything more.
Soon, Bai Song returned to the princess's tent and suddenly smelled a familiar aroma of wine.
"Wuliangye?"
Princess Tubo was pouring wine. She glanced at Bai Song with a smile and asked, "How do you think? This is a fine wine snatched from your Tang Dynasty. Normally, I would be reluctant to drink it, so it's just a little bit. I'll give it all to you."
