"The firearm supervisor was ambushed!" Hou Junji was shocked when he heard the report of the firearm supervisor's soldiers asking for help.
Hou Junji was in Gaochang. Although Gaochang was closer to the place where mojiazi was ambushed than Chang'an City, he got the latest news because of the barrier of the Gobi desert.
"As soon as our army got out of the firearms prison, it was ambushed by five thousand Tubo soldiers. They seemed to know our marching route long ago." the soldier crying for help said.
"I knew the marching route long ago." Hou Junji was embarrassed. The firearm supervisor was their first batch of victorious soldiers. Although the firearm supervisor had a special status, he thought he had 1000 firearm supervisors to guard him and would not encounter any danger at all.
However, he did not expect that Tubo should take the initiative to wait outside the Gobi desert. Obviously, it was not a temporary intention, but had long expected that the firearms Regulatory Commission would be the first to return. At present, Hou Junji couldn't help thinking of the rumor that Princess Changle was pregnant and wanted Merton to return as soon as possible.
"Damn, I even count my general in it." Hou Junji said with hatred.
If he didn't want to sell well in front of Li Shimin, how could he be caught in the trap of the people behind the scenes? Then Hou Junji coldly shouted, "come on, someone in Gaochang is colluding with Tubo. Investigate thoroughly immediately."
Soon, Gaochang, which had just been released, was in a tense situation again. All Hu merchants involved in Tubo were questioned by Tang Jun one by one.
Even among the Tang army, the newly arrived Anxi Prefecture guards were among the Tang army's inventory, except for those who interceded with Hou Junji.
"What? Mohou is in danger." the three messengers were shocked and said. They were the first to bring the news of Princess Changle's pregnancy and were the first to be investigated.
However, their suspicion was soon ruled out. After all, they had been running all the way. Where could they collude with Tubo? At most, they were used by others. The news came that Princess Changle was pregnant.
"I'm sorry, mohou!" said master Qiao with a sad face.
Kong huisuo could not help but look gloomy. Tubo's ability to accurately ambush the Mohist school must be involved in the internal forces of the Tang Dynasty. There is a trend of contention between the Mohist School and Confucianism, and the suspicion of Confucianism is not small. If it was before, he certainly did not believe that Confucianism would do such things. However, it was related to the dispute among 100 families. Even he dared not say that Confucianism was 100% innocent.
In addition, the whole Anxi Prefecture guards were all in a panic. After all, colluding with foreigners was a felony. However, in only two days, Hou Junji ended his investigation and released them.
"It's over!" the people couldn't help but wonder. They thought it would be difficult to escape this time. Everyone knows the importance of the firearms supervisor and mohou. Now they were ambushed by Tubo, which is a big thing, but they didn't expect that the investigation would end in just two days.
"You are very lucky, because mohou is all right," Hou Junji said meaningfully. This time, he hastily ended the investigation and only made an example of a few Hu merchants who delivered messages for Tubo.
"Mo Hou is all right?" Qiao Shiwang exclaimed, but they knew that when Mo Hou left, there were only a thousand people, while the Tubo cavalry was a full five thousand people. Everyone thought that Mo Hou must be bad this time.
However, when they came out to inquire, the final result surprised them. Mohou was not only fine, but the firearms supervisor greatly defeated 5000 Tubo cavalry.
"Mohist is worthy of Mohist!" when they heard that Merton worked miracles again, the people of Anxi Du's guard shouted happily. If something really happened to mohou and the firearm supervisor, they would be punished even if they were innocent. Now that Merton is all right, they can naturally make big and small things.
Not only did Qiao Shiwang and others rejoice, but Hou Junji was even more fortunate. He issued the military order for Merton to set out. If Merton had an accident, I'm afraid he would be the first to be held accountable. He spared the anxidu palace guards lightly, which also meant to minimize the impact of the matter.
Of course, the final responsibility must be put on Tubo. All this is Tubo's fault.
"Tubo!" Hou Junji couldn't help but look dignified. When he heard the news of Tuyuhun, he was shocked in a cold sweat. Fortunately, there was a firearm prison, which allowed the Tang army to break through Gaochang in the shortest time. Otherwise, once the Tang army and Gaochang had a long confrontation in the western regions or lost their troops, Tubo and Western Turks would surely attack like wolves, At that time, the western expedition army will be in a very disadvantageous position.
However, what surprised him more was the firearm supervisor. The firearm supervisor could break the city in one attack, and the defense could be one enemy and five, and he won a complete victory. He had never encountered a force that could make the attack and defense to the extreme, and the firearm supervisor did it.
Of course, the firearm supervision is not without shortcomings, that is, gunpowder. Once the firearm supervision runs out of gunpowder, the firearm supervision may be at the bottom of the Tang Dynasty, but as long as there is gunpowder, the firearm supervision will be in an invincible position.
However, Hou Junji still looked up to the firearms prison. Today's firearms prison is once again in a desperate situation, that is, 800 miles of the vast sea.
In the vast desert, the two armies are constantly confronting and entangled. In the hot environment, the water sources carried by the two armies are declining at an alarming rate.
At this time, their biggest opponent is not each other, but the extremely hot desert environment.
"Young master, you can't chase, or we'll all die in the desert." Zhang Mu's lips were dry and cracked and advised bitterly. He also went through the Gobi desert with the army for two thousand miles. Naturally, he knew the crisis of water shortage. However, this is an 800 mile vast sea. The severity of water shortage is deeper in the Gobi desert. If you don't pay attention, they may be wiped out.
However, Merton shook his head and said, "we are short of water, but the Tubo remnant soldiers are even more short of water. When I came, I brought more than half of the water source of the firearm prison, while the Tubo remnant soldiers fled all the way and fought for water. They can't."
Today, the firearms warden and the Tubo remnant army are like living in a poison circle together. They all rely on medicine and blood. However, it is obvious that the firearms warden who are well prepared to pursue again carry more medicine.
However, Zhang Mu was worried and said, "the purpose of Tubo's trip is young master. Now the Tubo remnant army does not go to Qiemo city with abundant water and grass, but deliberately introduces the firearm prison into the 800 mile vast sea, just to die with us. We may persist longer than the Tubo remnant army, but our water can't last until we return."
Zhang Mu is right. Maybe the firearm supervisor can beat the water fight, but it is difficult to return safely. Today's firearms prison is like a drug ring everywhere. It may be better than its opponents, but it is absolutely impossible to carry drugs to the safe area.
The officers and men of the firearm prison were silent for a while. They were not big soldiers who didn't know big words. Instead, they were rare people with both literature and martial arts in the Tang army. Naturally, they knew the risks Zhang Mu said.
Merton looked at a group of silent firearms officers and soldiers, suddenly smiled and said, "do you believe in this sacrifice? Since this sacrifice has brought you into the desert, we are sure to bring you out safely."
All the officers and men in charge of firearms suddenly stared at Merton. If someone else said this, the officers and men would scoff, but Merton was not. He is the most magical Mohist in the Tang Dynasty. He has repeatedly created miracles and has the experience of going deep into the 800 mile desert.
"As indicated by the wine offering sword, we will die together." a group of soldiers shouted. Tubo ambushed the firearms warden, causing heavy damage to the firearms warden. Now that they have Merton's guarantee, the fire of revenge suddenly ignited in all people's hearts. This time, we must let these Tubo remnant troops stay in this desert.
"Pursuit!" Merton pulled out his long sword and shouted fiercely.
