Datang: Salted fish at the beginning, Gao Yang was given marriage by Li Er

Chapter 385
The unknown is often unsettling and frightening.

The sudden death, coupled with the inexplicable closing of the door by the owner of the East Palace to thank guests, made the servants in the entire mansion trembling and stopped walking around at will.

The news that the Qianniu guards strayed into the firearms battalion and was beheaded spread like a swift breeze among the courtiers.People seem to feel that the position of the Lord of the Eastern Palace is faintly shaken.The seeds of selfishness in the hearts of restless courtiers began to germinate, and the undercurrent of the battle for the crown prince had slowly rippled through the entire court.

"Xu Mao, you have a lot of contacts between the court and China. Have you ever heard of the battle report on the western frontier? When will they come back?"

Leaning back on the seat, looking up to the sky, through the gaps intertwined by the green leaves, watching the sun shining in it, and asking casually.

Princess Changle's reminder, coupled with Li Shimin's anger, really calmed down Li Xian, who likes to visit mountains and rivers.

In this foreign country where the imperial power is supreme, Li Xian has already learned to survive, and he is not stupid enough to break the law again and again.

The construction of the firearms battalion is in full swing. These days, even though there is a small amount of sulfur, it is necessary to prepare it. There is already a small-scale black powder workshop, and it is only waiting for the black powder to come out.

When he is free, Li Xian likes to recall those brothers who fought side by side on the western frontier in the past, such as Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaidao.

Just like a follower, Xu Mao, who was still standing on one side in an orderly manner, cupped his hands respectfully.

"Although there are not many battle reports, according to the time, the army should return within three to five days."

Li Xian climbed up from the seat, with a touch of joy and excitement on Li Xian's face.

"That's good, it's good that they come back, and then we can get together..."

"Yes."

Xu Mao raised his chubby cheeks and looked at the western sky.

"The princess of the Tang Dynasty has gone to Tuyuhun King City to help the new king on behalf of the Tang Dynasty. I don't know if I can suppress those brutal barbarians."

……

The sun is shining brightly in the east, but the sky in the west is gloomy and drowsy, and the dust and sand are blowing in the whistling wind, which is a bit confusing.

The soldiers stationed at the top of the city were a mixture of barbarian soldiers and Tang soldiers. They guarded the last post to welcome the princess into the city.

After a few days of getting along, it was quite harmonious. Some soldiers of the Tang Dynasty could even say a few simple greetings in the local language.

Stepping over the re-built city wall, the remaining three thousand Tang Bing Xiaowei led two lieutenants to climb the tower.

When the chattering soldiers dispersed and stood at attention, the captain turned his back and roared in the wind.

"Everyone! You are the lucky ones who were chosen to witness the good relations between our two countries! I am proud of you for having this special mission."

"During the past hours, you and the people of Tuyuhun have jointly built a solid city wall, jointly forged wind-powered weapons, taught them how to use trees to make tools to run out of stones, and taught them how to use simple words. Record your usual emotions and sorrows."

"As the last general who is about to leave here, I am very happy to see your harmonious side."

The mud and sand in the wind hit the city wall, making rustling noises, blowing away half of the energetic words, and then carried the rest of the sound to the ears of the people around.

The strong wind lifted the scarlet cloak behind the captain, and he raised his arms, making the final mobilization to welcome the princess of the Tang royal family.

"However, the new king has just been established, and his strength is weak. There are still many wandering villains who intend to disturb the peace that was bought with blood and life. You still cannot take it lightly."

"The sage of the Great Tang Dynasty and the people of Huangyuan yearned for peace, and married the princess. The Princess of the Great Tang who came from afar will represent the will of the Great Tang and the vast army behind him, stationed in this land , to defend the eternal friendship between the two countries!"

"Take up the sharp blades in your hands and guard this last sacred moment! Let those ulterior motives know the majesty of my Datang, and let the princess of the Tang Dynasty who is running all the way see your most enthusiastic side!"

boom! boom! boom!
Roar!Roar!Roar!
The swords slapped against the shield, making a neat sound, and there were deafening choruses from the high-spirited bodies.

Seeing the majestic and mighty five thousand soldiers at the head of the city did not howl in the wind and sand, the captain's face showed a look of relief many times.

"what is that!"

A completely different voice erupted from the soldiers at the top of the city. Some people squinted their eyes and pointed at the front line surging in the wind and sand and exclaimed.

The majestic shouting gradually subsided, and the captain supported the wall with his hands, looking at the rolling forward line in the southwest direction, a sense of ominousness suddenly appeared in his heart.

picture!
so similar!
There are no rolling waves like floods in the desolate area, and the familiar sound of gold and iron horses is faintly heard in the blowing wind.

boom!
Throwing his fist at the city wall, the captain suddenly roared.

"Nock the arrow!"

"Prepare to meet the enemy!"

The air was full of the sound of bowstrings being pulled, and the arrows that were shining coldly pointed at the surging forward line.

two miles.

One mile.

half a mile.

The captain's line of sight gradually became clear as the striker approached.

Spreading wolf-headed banners spread all over the sky, and figures wrapped in chain mail spread all over the front of the city. Under the banner of the Marshal with a tiger's head tattooed on it, a burly man stared at his disheveled hair and looked up at the top of the city.

"What! Allies of the Tang Dynasty, why don't you welcome us, Tubo Switzerland?"

The voice spread over the walls and into the captain's ears, and turned into low-pitched curses spilling out of the corners of his mouth.

"These unreconciled bastards really fulfilled Li Canjun's words."

"While the army is returning to Beijing, do you want to share a share of Tuyuhun's soup from Datang?"

Under the fluttering Tang flag, the school lieutenant questioned his birth with his eyes closed.

"On the Qinling Mausoleum, the new king of Tuyuhun has just been established, and it is enough to have the Tang Dynasty stationed there. He can unify the whole territory without the help of Tubo."

"If my guess is correct, the military order received by the general should be to withdraw the troops quickly. What is the purpose of doing this?"

The figure straddling the horse burst out laughing, and the silver spear in his hand slammed on the ground, splashing mud and flying into the wind.

"The new king of Tuyuhun has just been established, and there are many evils in the country. How can a mere 3000 people deter these stubborn people?"

"My Guo Khan thought that the battle of the Tang Dynasty was not easy, and the lands and mountains that had been hard-won must not be ruined by these remnants, so I came to help."

"What? Shouldn't Datang welcome him?"

The fist that was holding on to the city wall gradually tightened, and a spark of anger burst out in the captain's eyes,,,, and pointed at the tumbling flag above his head with his cross arm, his words were sharp.

"Look at this flag carefully, I want to let you know the price of a sneak attack!"

"Even if I only have the Three Thousand Tang Banners, I will still hold on to the city until the last moment!"

"Despicable villain, just come and fight if you don't want your life!"

Passionate words passed through the city, and people of different costumes and skin colors suddenly raised their bows and crossbows.

"The city is alive, the city is dead and the people are dead!"

"This is the first battle between the two allies, we must show the momentum that our soldiers of the Tang Dynasty should have!"

"Our country has been torn apart, and we can no longer stand the second war, for the people of the tribe!"

The corners of the thick lips of the figure in the city raised slightly, and the silver spear leaning on the ground was suddenly pulled out and held in his hand, pointing across the front of the spear towards the top of the city.

"kill!"
