As the general of Tiance Guard, Zhao Dong also had problems that he could not solve.
After something like this happened, Zhao Dong immediately rushed in the direction of Li Chengqian.
In order to show off their muscles in front of the Tubo Songtsan cadres, the Tang army put on gorgeous armor and kept practicing outside the military camp, shouting and killing loudly. Even if Zhao Dong rushed over in a hurry, they didn't take it seriously. .
Could it be that with such a powerful army, Xiaoxiao would come to make trouble?
Even if Tubo invades with the whole country again, they will not take it seriously. If they can defeat Tubo's 100,000 soldiers and horses, they can defeat Tubo again with 100,000 or 200,000 or 300,000.
However, Zhao Dong charged towards the military camp in a hurry, while several generals from Tiance Guard were shouting there.
"Captain Zhao, what happened? Why are you so anxious?"
Zhao Dong looked at them and immediately held up his hands, "Brothers, please forgive me, but I can't talk to you in detail. I have important matters and need to meet with His Highness the Crown Prince."
After Zhao Dong said this, they didn't have any dissatisfaction. Instead, they looked at the direction Zhao Dong left and asked.
"Is there an enemy coming? Do we need to be prepared to meet the enemy?"
Zhao Dong shook his head, "It's not an enemy attack. It's an emergency. I'll discuss it with you brothers after we confirm it."
Although Zhao Dong knew that many of the Tiance Guard generals had worshiped his generals as their disciples, the news should still be left to His Highness the Crown Prince to decide what should be done. He was incapable of making any arrangements on His Royal Highness's behalf.
After Zhao Dong made up his mind, he quickly moved forward.
He came to the outside of Li Chengqian's camp and watched the few soldiers guarding outside hand over their hands.
"I have to trouble you brothers to go in and report to His Highness the Crown Prince. General Zhao Dong has something he needs to report to His Highness the Crown Prince."
But as soon as Zhao Dong finished speaking, the two soldiers guarding outside the camp immediately raised their hands to Zhao Dong.
"Battle Commander Zhao, why do we need to report to His Highness the Crown Prince? His Royal Highness is discussing matters with the generals in the camp. You just go in."
"Isn't this appropriate?"
Although Zhao Dong said it was inappropriate, he still consciously entered the camp. As soon as he entered, he saw a group of generals from the Tiance Guard splitting up the left side under the leadership of Xue Li, while Li Zhong led some of the Prince Guard's The general is on the right side of the tent, and Li Chengqian is arranging some tasks there.
Suddenly seeing Zhao Dong come in, Li Chengqian nodded kindly to Zhao Dong, while Xue Li and the other Tiance guards looked over and smiled in a friendly manner. As for the generals and ministers led by the Prince Guard, they were also polite. Say hello.
Seeing so many people inside, Zhao Dong felt a little embarrassed again, and Li Chengqian saw that Zhao Dong was hesitant to speak, and then asked
"Battle Commander Zhao, what happened to you? Why did you come in so hurriedly? If you have anything to say directly, is there anything that cannot be said in the military camp led by our Tiance Guards and Prince Guards? You are all me I can trust my right-hand man, so why are you so wary?"
After Li Chengqian spoke in front of him, everyone couldn't help but feel quite comfortable.
have a look!
This is His Highness the Crown Prince. He speaks nicely. We are His Highness the Crown Prince’s right-hand man.
Although
The left arm is the left arm, and the right arm is the right arm. However, this title is also very prestigious. When you go out, say, I am the left arm of His Highness the Crown Prince, and I am the right arm of His Highness the Crown Prince. What do you want to do? ? Meeting us is not equivalent to meeting His Highness the Crown Prince?
But just when they were imagining that their noble status could be reused by Li Chengqian, and imagining an extraordinary future, Zhao Dong gritted his teeth and spoke to Li Chengqian.
"Return to His Highness the Crown Prince, King Anbei... King Anbei..."
Zhao Dong was shocked and made up his mind, but he was a little nervous and a little unsure for a moment, and Li Chengqian heard that King Anbei was his former master, a master he was proud of.
With his master's presence, he accomplished many feats, and his master also left him his elite.
After hearing Zhao Dong talk about Anbei King Li Ying, Li Chengqian looked at Zhao Dong curiously.
"What's wrong with you? My master's untimely death is really painful in our hearts!"
But just as Li Chengqian finished speaking, Zhao Dong gritted his teeth and said, "Your Highness, according to reliable information, King Anbei may not have passed away."
"What?"
Li Chengqian suddenly jumped up from his seat, and the soldiers on the Tiance Guard side were instantly in an uproar.
"Zhao Dong, what are you talking about? Nothing happened to King Anbei. If you dare to lie to us, we will have to cut you into pieces."
Cheng Chumo said this without hesitation, and Yuchi Baolin also said it beside him.
"It's too cheap for him to cut it into eight pieces. Just cut it into eighty pieces."
Zhao Dong was trembling helplessly when he said this, while Li Zhong was standing next to the general led by the Prince Guard.
The color suddenly turned white.
"Nothing happened to Li Ying, how is this possible? If nothing happened to him, wouldn't I be wary if I remembered that I had harmed him? What on earth is going on?"
Zhao Dong was silent as soon as he finished speaking. Everyone had different expressions, but Li Chengqian was happy and encouraged by this.
Tiancewei's side was also extremely happy, while Li Zhong's face was as white as snow.
I had no choice but to ask what was worrying me.
"What's going on? What happened to King Anbei? Tell me quickly! How is King Anbei of our Tang Dynasty now?"
After Li Zhong asked this question without hesitation, no one thought it was inappropriate. Everyone knew the relationship between Li Zhong and Xu Yunyan. Li Zhong inherited Xu Yunyan's title of champion marquis, and they were from the same hometown and were as close as brothers.
Seeing Li Zhong's anxious look, Li Chengqian waved his hand.
"Okay Li Zhong, no need to say these words anymore, let's first listen to what's going on with Zhao Dong."
Then Zhao Dong nodded and said, "Returning to His Majesty the Crown Prince, I was ordered to guard against dangers everywhere in the camp. When I entered Dunhuang City, I found a caravan..."
Soon Zhao Dong told Li Chengqian about his discovery of the caravan and the person the caravan mentioned. When Li Chengqian heard that it was Dunhuang and the caravan, his head was a little confused for a while, but After a little thought, I figured out what was going on.
"You mean those caravans brought news to Dunhuang. They saw a girl that Master once rescued in Dingxiang. I seem to have heard about that girl."
Li Chengqian thought of the message his Jin Yiwei had conveyed to him, and then looked at Zhao Dong.
"Disaster
Just because of this one thing, can we be sure that the master is still alive? "
Although Li Chengqian's face was a little uncomfortable after saying this, and he looked a little painful, he still looked at Zhao Dong anxiously, hoping that Zhao Dong would give him a good explanation, and Zhao Dong nodded and continued. Said.
"This girl has a husband named Xu Yunyan. Xu Yunyan was the name that King Anbei had before he was given Li Ying, and this girl couldn't find a fake one. Moreover, our King Anbei didn't find his body at the scene at all. , only the armor was found, we wonder if he was rescued by someone in the first place, right?"
Li Chengqian suddenly moved from the seat next to Zhao Dong. Seeing this speed that seemed like teleportation, everyone couldn't help but be speechless, and Li Chengqian just patted Zhao Dong on the shoulder.
"The information you provided is very good, very good! But I don't know why this girl didn't return to the Tang Dynasty since she saved my master and my master also made great achievements in war? I still have to go to It’s interesting to establish a tribe on the border between the Turks and the Black-clothed Dashi, quite interesting!”
"General, do you think there is something wrong with this?"
Zhao Dong muttered again, and Li Zhong's expression couldn't change color for a long time. He was still that stupid white, but Li Zhong suddenly took a step forward.
"Your Highness, I would like to ask you to lead some of the prince's guards and soldiers to the place mentioned by Battalion Commander Zhao to see if it is me, King Anbei of the Tang Dynasty. If I, King Anbei of the Tang Dynasty, are really here, I will do whatever it takes." We must also bring King Anbei back, no matter what happens."
Li Zhong
Regardless of the request, Zhao Dong took a step forward.
"I have already inquired about the location of the tribe. His Royal Highness, it is better to let the general lead the people there."
Li Chengqian looked at Zhao Dong and Li Zhong, who couldn't help but fight for each other here, then touched his chin and pondered, and after pondering for a while, he started to speak.
"Now I understand how you feel. I also wish I could lead Tiance Guards directly to welcome King Anbei back. But now is the time when the country is in trouble."
Although Li Chengqian said that the country's affairs were difficult, everyone did not refute anything. Instead, they waited for Li Chengqian's explanation.
As expected, Li Chengqian is still kind-hearted. "It's not me who is cold-blooded."
Li Chengqian said again that he should establish an image for himself first. It wasn't that he didn't want to bring Li Ying back, but there were other reasons.
After Li Chengqian said that he was not cold-blooded, he continued.
"We still have to show the victory of our Tang Dynasty soldiers in front of the Tubo, not to mention the Anxi Protectorate of the western border. However, the Anxi Protectorate is beyond the reach of the entire grassland and has not yet completely unified the entire grassland. Will we appear rashly? Did you ruin the Anxi Protectorate? What should you do if something happens again? "
But as soon as Li Chengqian finished speaking, Xue Li took a step forward.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can mobilize a Tang army here."
As soon as Xue Li finished speaking, Li Chengqian looked at Xue Li curiously.
"I wonder what General Xue means by this? Why do you have to withdraw your troops and come here again?"
"Since His Highness the Crown Prince said that the Anxi Protectorate is beyond the reach of the whip and has not yet controlled the entire grassland, why not take a man from the border who is familiar with the Turks and come here, and wait until the Tubo are completely subdued and surrendered before we let this detachment
Wu went to the grassland with us. Along the way, we were able to conquer many Turkic tribes and enhance the prestige of the Tang Dynasty. We were also able to truly manage the territory of the Anxi Protectorate in an orderly manner. "
Li Chengqian nodded, "You're right. Let me think of someone. I'll talk to my father."
But soon, Li Chengqian thought of it.
"By the way, Su Dingfang, this is also a rare good general. Now that the Turks have been calmed down, it is no longer the case for him to continue on the Yanmen Dingxiang front line. I can write to my father to ask him to come to Dunhuang, and wait until this matter is fixed Then go all the way west to search for the footprints of King Anbei of the Tang Dynasty."
After Li Chengqian made his decision, everyone hurriedly praised Li Chengqian's sage, but Li Zhong breathed a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately, there was no immediate arrangement. I had a chance. Now that I know your whereabouts, I can't let you threaten me again no matter what.
Although what I did may be a bit unethical, but in the face of power, who will be your brother? Isn’t it true that people who don’t care for themselves will be punished by heaven and earth? "
Li Zhong thought fiercely, while watching Dongfang clenching his fists, as if he wanted to hold Xu Yunyan in his hands and let him flatten and round him.
