Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

"Hahaha~"

Li Ji laughed loudly, and praised: "I love to hear this. You kid came to my place to eat, drink, and domineering. Finally, he said something that was pleasing to the ear. That's right, we will meet again next time." , will definitely be in some cities."

It's no wonder that Li Ji is so happy. You must know that he has suffered defeats across the board, retreating steadily and staying in the area around Golmud City.

Because of his face, he really didn't dare to ask the court for help. He thought that he had boasted, let go of his rhetoric, and issued a military order.Now where is there any face to fight back with the imperial court for support?

Therefore, in the face of Guo Ye's sudden visit to Golmud City, Li Ji was still a bit embarrassing while he was still unable to make it.

After all, it was an indisputable fact that he had lost the battle.

Now Guo Ye's call really touched his heart.He knows that this bastard has always had a lot of tricks, if he can reach Luoxi City smoothly this time, and make troubles within the alliance of several countries, if he can't bear it, it will really create some opportunities for him to counterattack as a breakthrough.

So, he clasped his fists and said, "If that day comes, I, Li Maogong, will present you three bowls in person!"

"Got it!"

Guo Ye waved to Zhuo Yuan, signaling him to bring the horse over.

Then, leaning on the saddle and tiptoeing, he turned onto the horse neatly, and after sitting firmly on the horse, he cupped his hands at Li Ji and said, "Old man, then I'll take my leave first."

Li Ji cupped his hands and replied: "Let's go, I wish you a smooth journey and arrive in Luoxie City smoothly."

"Lend your auspicious words!"

Guo Ye was about to pull the rein of the horse and prepare to turn around, when he suddenly remembered something, looked at Li Ji and asked, "Old man, I will go first here later, don't you forget the drama of Tang Jun chasing and killing the Goguryeo mission?"

"Don't forget!"

Li Ji waved his hand and said with a smile: "The old man personally led five thousand elite soldiers to hunt down your party, okay?"

"Okay." Guo Ye raised his whip and was about to whip it on the horse's buttocks, when he suddenly saw Zhuo Yuan still sticking to the same spot, he hurriedly asked, "Why are you sticking there like a log? According to the will of King Yingyang, the King of Goguryeo, you are an envoy who came to Tubo and other countries to form an alliance against the Tyrant Tang Dynasty. You are a dignified envoy of Goguryeo, the eldest son of the Cui family in Goguryeo, Mr. Cui Mingzhu, we Now you have the highest status in the group, why don't you know how to act? You have to join the show!"

"Uh……"

Zhuo Yuan stood there in embarrassment, pointed weakly at the horse under Guo Ye's crotch, and said in a low voice: "Well, my lord, according to what we agreed last night, I will ride a horse when we leave Golmud City, you walk, you Play my squire. Well, you stole my horse!"

"what?"

Only then did Guo Ye come to his senses, he yelled repeatedly, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was in the middle of chatting with the British gentleman, and I got on the wrong horse in a moment of impatience! Here, give me back your mount!"

After that, Guo Ye lifted his buttocks on one leg and spun around, ran off the horse, gave the mount to Zhuo Yuan, and said, "Come on, you ride the horse and I walk. You are the envoy of Goguryeo, Cui Mingzhu, the eldest son of the Cui clan. Your younger brother Cui Minghao died in Yangzhou at the hands of Guo Ye, the governor of Yangzhou. Do you remember the attack?"

"Uh, remember it!" Zhuo Yuan had already memorized it by heart last night.

Guo Ye pushed his shoulder and said: "Remember, get on the horse quickly, let's go!"

Zhuo Yuan twitched for a while, and said with some embarrassment: "My lord, it's a bit inappropriate for you to walk and ride a horse, isn't it? This subordinate thinks it's overstepping."

"Pretentious bastard!"

Guo Ye scolded with a smile: "At this time, there is no need to squirm and pretend to be pretty, maybe you are secretly having fun in your heart."

Zhuo Yuan said: "Subordinates dare not!"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Guo Ye stared, and spat in feigned anger, "Get on the horse quickly, don't stick to these small details at this time."

"All right!"

Zhuo Yuan really got on the horse with some reluctance, but he didn't dare to look at Guo Ye, because he was riding a horse and Mr. Guo was walking behind his buttocks, why did he feel awkward and guilty when he looked at it!

"Hahaha……"

Li Ji clasped his hands and laughed loudly, and said to Zhuo Yuan: "Your surname Zhuo, this kind of good thing will disappear after this village. The dignified Longxi Guoye, the dignified Pingyang County Lord, will take care of you, kid." Where can I find such a good thing?"

Zhuo Yuan sat on the horse cautiously, with an embarrassed face, he shook his head repeatedly and said, "Don't dare~"

"Don't bother with this bull-nosed~"

Guo Ye took the reins of the horse under Zhuo Yuan's crotch, waved his hand at Li Ji, and said, "Then let's set off now. After we have traveled about ten miles, you are about to start chasing us. Don't forget this Son!"

Li Ji waved his hand and said, "I can't forget, let's go!"

"set off!"

"drive!"

Da Da Da~

In the blink of an eye, Guo Ye and his party finally left Golmud City and headed straight for Doronier City, the first enemy-guarded city only a hundred miles away from Golmud City.

……

……

Doronil City, a hundred miles away from Golmud City, is an inconspicuous small city in the hinterland of Tubo.During Songtsen Gampo's heyday when he ruled Tubo, the city's population of soldiers and civilians plus slaves was only 5.

However, this city has a vital military status, because it is the first city leading to Luoxie City, the capital of the Tubo Kingdom, and it is also the only way to pass.

Although Doronil City has to go through more than a dozen cities before arriving at Luoxie City, it is no exaggeration to say that Doronil City is the first barrier of Luoxie City facing Datang.

Especially after the alliance of Xue Yantuo and Gaochang made up their minds to fight against Datang and carve up Tubo, Datang has become a confidant of the Western Regions.Therefore, this Doronil city highlights its strategic position even more.

Therefore, King Gaochang, Xue Yantuo Khan, East Turkic Khan, the patriarch of the Rouran tribe, and the Tubo Queen Yunrong discussed together, and jointly selected [-] elites from the Gaochang Kingdom who are best at defending the city to be in charge of guarding the city. Ronier City.

The [-] Gaochang elites who were in charge of guarding the city of Doronil this time were the number one general of the Gaochang Kingdom, Mo Yefeng. He had more than half of the blood of the Huns on his body. It is said that his ancestors had plundered Han women back then. So he has a little bit of Han Chinese blood in him.

Mo Yefeng is the son-in-law of Gaochang Kingdom. Gaochang Kingdom has a total of [-] elites, and he alone leads [-] to guard the city of Doronil.It is conceivable that the countries of the Western Regions attach great importance to this city.

On this day, Mo Yejin stayed in the city and had nothing to do, so he went back to the city and slaughtered a lamb, preparing to roast the whole lamb to satisfy his hunger.

Suddenly, a soldier in charge of the watch came to the city to report, disturbing his elegant mood: "Report to General Mo Ye, there is something strange outside the city!"

"Grandma's!"

Boom!

Mo Ye was so angry that he kicked the grilled lamb rack he had just set up to the ground, and stood up with a fierce look on his face full of anger.

Chapter 1166 Outside Doronil City

Mo Yedi went to the city in a panic, and a centurion of the Gaochang Army rushed forward to meet him, raised his arms and pointed outside the city, and shouted loudly, "Look, General!"

Mo Yejin raised his head and looked into the distance, his heart suddenly rose to his throat, what a guy...

I saw that less than two miles away from the city, the dust was flying, billowing, and the smoke moved with the wind, coming straight towards the direction of the city gate.

As it got closer, the horse's hooves rattled and rattled, which was deafening and chilling.
