War is an act of violence that forces the enemy to obey our will. In the same way, war is an absolute means to gain wealth and power.
But our war is to seek a just and stable country for the Tibetan people who are living in dire straits.
For their happy life and for their Zanpu, mangsong mangzan was no longer controlled by the treacherous minister ludongzan. Therefore, as a shangguo, the Tang Dynasty has the responsibility and obligation to help them.
The impassioned speech just made his guard's eyes shine with stars. He didn't understand what his highness had gone mad in the morning.
Quan Yi had already led a team to the other side of the mountains to wait for the Tubo caravan. However, the prince's highness was facing the snow mountain in the distance, and was in awe of righteousness.
"Well, after all that said, you don't have much to understand. As long as you remember, you can't let Quan Yi's men steal the limelight." Li Hong looked at the two hundred people with a blank face and pondered over the mobilization before the war for the whole night. It seemed that he was in vain.
The war of this era, however, tends to be barbaric. Truth is always the first thing to be sacrificed.
The most recognizable thing for Tubo people is their clothes and their hair.
A kind of Robe similar to the ruffled collar, together with a belt of animal fur interwoven, is their most prominent feature.
And hair adornment also is better distinction, a head of braid, regardless of men and women are the same, a hat off, immediately appears messy.
A camel team, too long to see its tail, came slowly from the narrow corner far away from the Kunlun Mountains.
The clear camel bell with a trace of mystery rings on the open plateau. The jingling sound and the occasional shouting of merchants attract the Hawks flying in the blue sky and white clouds.
The roar of mountain eagles in the sky did not make the camel team stop and doubt for half a moment. The first one humped camel is unique to Tubo.
Yaks are also good at walking mountain roads. Like the one humped camel, yaks are extremely cold resistant and extremely durable. As pack animals, both are the most proud livestock of Tibetan merchants.
Putting down his binoculars, Li Hong looked at the camel caravan like a stream of small rivers and merchants of more than 2000 people, which might not be so spectacular on the desert.
But in the winding mountain road, these people can be a group of overlord that nobody dares to provoke in Congling.
At the back of the mountain, Quan Yi's troops and horses were already ambushed. On the other side, Li Hongzao had been waiting for a long time in a narrow place like a canyon.
Wei Tu looked at the camel caravan like a long dragon. He couldn't figure out how to eat these caravans when the number was not dominant.
"The old thing doesn't come?" Facing the mountain breeze, Li Hong murmured to himself.
The camel team has been able to see two thousand little people, but they can't see at all. There are important people like them mixed in.
"Sir, you don't mean..." Hua Meng Gulong swallowed his saliva and did not dare to speak out.
Li Hong ignored Hua Meng's question. Of course, he knew the importance of the battle and what the consequences would be if he could not succeed.
Along the way, Li Hong didn't reveal that Lu Dongzan was in the camel team. All along, he used Lu Dongzan's plan of this Tibetan merchant's action as the reason to prevaricate others: why attack a camel team, but also let himself go out in person.
"Flag, command, no matter what happens, don't move, wait for the order." After Li Hong finished, he picked up a heavy, long-distance sniper crossbow and found a commanding point.
Lu Dongzan old things do not appear, these camel teams may be swaggering away from their own eyes.
This is a situation that Li Hong is absolutely not allowed to appear, so he can only try to shoot the leader of the camel team with a long-distance bow and crossbow to see what will happen.
A fine iron arrow full of spiral patterns was slowly buckled into the slot by Li Hong.
Looking at the camel team leader who was still walking leisurely forward, Li Hong took off the blindfold disguised as a Pirates of the Caribbean and began to aim at the leader.
Li Hong estimated that the mountain wind would lead to the deviation of the arrow's accuracy. With the sound of the eagle above his head, Li Hong immediately pulled the trigger, and the sound of the arrow breaking into the air and the eagle's singing in the sky reflected each other.
"My lord..." Xiao Xue looks at the leader who is still walking.
"No hurry, let the arrow fly for a while." As soon as Li Hong's voice dropped, he heard the camel's bell in front of his ear, and there was a trace of confusion.
"Yeah, one hit." Li Hongfei grabs the telescope in Xiaoxue's hand quickly and observes carefully.
The leader fell to the ground with his eyebrows in the middle. The camel was frightened by the wind brought by the arrow, and the conditioned reflex retreated. Therefore, the camel bell on the camel's neck made a chaotic noise.
The camel team slowly stopped, except at the beginning, when they shot the leader, there was a little confusion ahead. In a moment, the whole team soon returned to calm.
Except for a few people who occasionally look up to both sides, others just stand quietly on their one humped camel, or yak, and look straight ahead."These people are not simple. None of them are real merchants. They are all top generals of Tubo." Li Hong excitedly said, in the heart also more firm, in the camel team is willing to have Lu Dongzan.
Li Hong carefully observed the whole camel team with a telescope. He did not miss any small details, but the camel team winding on the mountain road did not make any small moves.
The whole camel team seemed to be held still. No one spoke or moved. It stood there like terra cotta warriors and horses.
"Sir, what should I do now?" Xiaoxue was oppressed by this strange atmosphere, and asked in a low voice.
"Wait." Li Hong put down his telescope and put on an arrow again.
Sure enough, at the foot of the mountain, among those camel teams that seemed to have been programmed, a man suddenly came out and trotted all the way to the front end of the camel team.
Squat down to look at the dead leader, and then nodded with the people behind him, holding the one humped camel began to prepare to move on.
"Whoosh..." The arrow cuts through the air with a trace of vibration.
The man had just taken seven or eight steps forward with the one humped camel. Like the first man, the arrow was in the middle of his eyebrow, so soft that it was on the ground.
Like the beginning, the camel team was a little flustered, and then it became orderly and orderly without any confusion.
In this way, the whole camel team did not walk 30 steps forward, and seven people were shot and killed by Li Hong one after another.
But the whole camel team still did not appear the panic situation that Li Hong wanted. The whole camel team was still calm to a strange state, still orderly and orderly.
Li Hong frowned and had to reevaluate the strength of Tubo. These people were too terrible and calm.
It is no wonder that Tubo can stand on the Qinghai Tibet Plateau, so that the white clothes Dashi and the Tang Dynasty can not take it, but also let the Tubo continue to expand in its south.
The sunlight of time was slowly slanting from the south slope, but the Tubo caravan was still standing there, and did not send anyone to continue to lead the way forward. Instead, they just stood there, blowing the mountain wind, waiting quietly.
Li Hongchang breathed a sigh and looked at the sun which had already deviated from the top of his head. He understood that these people were waiting for the sky to get dark and then move on. They were not waiting for help, as Wei Tu Qi thought.
Li Hong's estimation of the current situation is somewhat optimistic. He chose to ambush and intercept here because the road here is narrow, and the Tubo camel caravan can't pass side by side.
But at the same time, this place is not suitable for their own use of terrain, from the bottom up to kill.
What he originally thought was that the shooting would cause chaos to the Tibetan camel team, and then take advantage of the chaos to cut off the connection between the camel teams, divide them into several sections and annihilate them.
But obviously, ludongzan expected that he would do so, so he had this stable camel team standing here, like the Great Wall, which made Li Hong unable to find a good way for a moment and a half.
In this first encounter, the two men have not yet met, although it is not clear who wins or loses.
But in the case of Li Hong occupying the advantage of land, he did not get a bit of advantage, which shows that Lu Dongzan has the upper hand.
As long as the sky is dark, ludongzan will fight to die a few more people, then he can take the goods with him and walk out of the ambush circle.
"Shoot." Li Hong looked at the camel team frozen by the mountain wind. A trace of anger flashed in his eyes and said faintly.
Hua Meng ran away in a place that the camel team could not reach at the foot of the mountain. The red flag began to swing. After the flag there responded, Huameng put down the flag in his hand, handed it to others and ran back.
When he came out of Chang'an City, Li Zhi only gave him 20 powerful sniper crossbows. Now, there are ten in Quan Yi's side and ten in his own side.
What he has to do now is, before dark, let these 20 people disperse and shoot the Tubo people who are like wooden piles at the foot of the mountain.
With the sharp sound of piercing air and a cold intention of killing, the arrow shot at random in the long Tibetan camel team, looking for flaws.
Li Hong held up his telescope and observed carefully. After the Tubo man hit by the arrow fell down, the Tubo people in front of and behind him were expressionless and undisturbed. He stood there as before, not afraid that the next arrow would hit him.
But the camel team was so long that Li Hong felt desperate. After every Tibetan fell down, no matter the yak or the one humped camel, they panicked a little, then recovered their calm and stood there quietly.
Twenty sniping crossbows could not shake the Tibetan camel team, which was several miles long.
It's just like Li centipede has no effect on him.
No matter how you shoot, it is still unable to effectively damage the "centipede" at the foot of the mountain, which is likely to bite him back.
