The general returned and captured the Tubo princess.
The incident quickly spread throughout the military camp.
It has also been spread that Bai Song led a lone army into the enemy's hinterland and occupied the Jinyuan Gate, directly reversing the situation on the front line.
The officers and soldiers of the entire army lined up to welcome him. Passing by the central army, the officers and soldiers shouted: "Welcome the general to triumph."
The shouts in the military camp were loud and the momentum was like a rainbow.
Although it was not the first time to live in a military camp, as a general, it was a unique feeling to be welcomed by all the soldiers in the army.
But Bai Song felt a little guilty. He didn't have much credit along the way, and his determination was even shaken when it came to the Tubo Princess.
Such a large-scale welcome brought some pressure to Bai Song.
"Boy, you have become a general in a blink of an eye. I can't even imagine it!"
Cheng Yaojin whispered beside him.
Bai Song smiled faintly, looked at the sky, and looked at the Chinese army tent in front of him, and suddenly felt like it was yesterday.
Li Jing looked at Bai Song and said, "You've come back at the right time. Our most critical battle is expected to begin in the past two days. Before the battle begins, it's just right to sacrifice the Tibetan princess to the flag to enhance the prestige of our army!"
Bai Song frowned slightly and subconsciously opened his mouth, but in the end he said one word: "Okay!"
The overall situation is the most important thing, and anything that shakes the morale of the military should not occur.
Bai Song didn't want anyone in the army to see the subtle relationship between him and the Tubo princess.
However, this only requires the Bai Song Dynasty to kill the Tubo princess to sacrifice the flag?
This certainly can't be done.
Bai Song kept this matter in his heart and waited until he had figured out a solution.
Back at the Chinese army tent, Bai Song and all the lieutenants met one by one.
The military situation is very urgent now, and there is no time for Bai Song to reminisce with them.
After a brief greeting, the sand table deduction began.
Seeing the sand table in the army, Bai Song remembered that this was also something he invented. It is said that even the Tibetan army used this thing.
The current situation is that the Tang army has assembled a main force of 130,000 to confront the Tibetan army of more than 80,000.
There is an absolute advantage in numbers, but the enemy adopts a defensive posture and has the priority attack advantage of the Shenwu Cannon. It is difficult to win without careful consideration.
This is a crucial battle and a tough battle.
Although Bai Song is the commander-in-chief, he has just returned and does not understand the situation of the battle, so the main situation will be arranged by Li Jing.
Although the old general is old, he still has a good grasp and sense of the battlefield.
The deployment of the battle of 100,000 people was still orderly and clearly arranged.
After an hour of arrangements and routines, the general goal was settled.
Li Jing looked at Bai Song: "I wonder what the general wants?"
As a general, Bai Song had to leave the final decision in his hands.
Bai Song frowned and thought deeply. Li Jing's arrangements could be said to be very meticulous, but what worried Bai Song was never the size of the army, but the news he learned from the princess.
Seeing Bai Song's silence, Li Jing frowned and asked, "Does the general have some concerns?"
Bai Song shook his head: "It's not that he has any concerns about the deployment, but according to what the general said, he only considered the deployment of soldiers in the Tibetan army and the use of Shenwu artillery. It seems that he did not take into account the situation of the local general Songtsen Gampo."
"Songtsen Gampo? This is indeed the enemy's general, but he has not shown up since the beginning of the war. As for what the general said about considering this person, I wonder what he is considering?"
"Having never shown up, is it possible that no one in the entire army knows the true strength of Songtsen Gampo?"
Seeing that Bai Song was speaking seriously every day, all the soldiers on the scene looked at him with confusion on their faces.
"Songtsen Gampo's true strength?"
"Then how could Songtsen Gampo have the ability to lead troops in a war? If he really had the strength, the Tibetan army would have had the upper hand at the beginning and would not have been suppressed so quickly."
"Songtsen Gampo was able to establish the Tubo Kingdom so quickly not because of his commanding ability, but because he was the top master of the Tubo Kingdom. It is said that this man's strength is unfathomable and he is the top master of the Tubo Kingdom. He also practiced It’s evil work. He is the real threat.”
After listening to Bai Song's explanation, the military camp fell into a brief silence.
After being quiet for a while, Li Jing asked in a low voice: "If Songtsen Gampo is a master in the Central Plains martial arts, how is his strength compared to the general six months ago?"
Bai Song shook his head: "I haven't seen it before, so I don't know."
Although it was unclear, the words coming from Bai Song's mouth still made everyone present feel their hearts sink.
What was the strength of Bai Song half a year ago?
There is no need to say more about this. Bai Song can't explain clearly, which means that the opponent's strength can be compared with Bai Song half a year ago.
Even if he can't compare, it proves that he is at least on the same level as Bai Song.
This is not good news.
Grandmasters are already a rare profession nowadays, and even if they are available, they may not be able to help the imperial court on the battlefield.
Moreover, judging from Bai Song's description, the other party is definitely not a simple grandmaster. Maybe dozens of grandmasters working together will not be his opponent.
When such a person joins the battle, it is possible to defeat one against ten thousand, not to mention one against ten thousand.
The world's understanding of warriors has reached a new level, because of the battle half a year ago, even in Chang'an, everyone saw the earth-shattering scene.
The personal combat power was vividly demonstrated and it also created an impression on the generals.
It is possible for current personal abilities to cause subversive changes in the rebel army.
"The matter has reached this point, and we can no longer retreat. Even if Songtsan Gampo is really that powerful, this battle must be fought, and it must be fought." Li Jing said solemnly.
Bai Song also nodded with deep understanding: "This battle must be fought, but other variable factors must also be taken into consideration. We must be prepared. We cannot wait until Songtsen Gampo appears and the whole army is in chaos."
"Understood!" Li Jing nodded, "The lieutenants will stay here first, and we will discuss an emergency plan overnight."
This concludes the military discussion.
Bai Song did not participate in many decisive things.
After leaving the military camp, I was thinking about the Tubo princess.
Before the decisive battle, Li Jing wanted to kill her to sacrifice Qi.
People must be arranged early.
Waiting until nightfall, Bai Song finally took Princess Tubo outside the military camp and pointed to the Tang Dynasty territory to the east: "If you can trust me, go all the way east to find my wife in Jingzhou City and come back after I calm down the chaos. If I find you, I will follow my oath and live with you."
Princess Tubo shook her hand, broke away from Bai Song, and looked at him coldly: "Are you interesting?"
"Um?"
"I'm going here and there now! You can kill or behead me if you want, but I don't want to leave."
"If you don't leave, the war will begin in two days, and someone in the army will use you as a sacrificial flag to boost the army's prestige. I am a general, but I can't protect you! If you don't leave now, you will die."
