Chapter 1219: All Tribes Surrender to Tang

The Tibetan envoys who had delivered things had dinner and rested in the city, strolling around, scouting the enemy and collecting intelligence.

There were streets and roads in the city, the ground was still mud, and the houses were built with cement. At a distance, there were a group of tents and stables.

There were Tang soldiers working, and some civilians were also seen.

The civilians wore their own clothes, the standard uniforms of Tang soldiers, military coats, and occasionally the team without military coats patrolled with things in their hands.

The envoy thought that the troops were different, but the real situation was that there were not enough military coats, and this year's cotton was working overtime to make military coats.

Some teams with weak combat effectiveness temporarily wore leather clothes, and some were second-hand goods sent before.

Last year, Lijiazhuangzi bought a lot of things at the pawnshop in Jingzhao Prefecture, refurbished them, and sent them to the border to the soldiers.

At present, they are changing clothes one after another, and the leather coats and leather boots that have been replaced are given to people in Shu and the rear troops who transport supplies.

The Tibetan tribe does not need them, they have their own leather coats and leather boots.

They prefer Tang Dynasty needles and thread. Cotton thread is strong. Needles of different sizes come in a set with a thimble. Ten rolls of colorless thread are given. One sheep can be exchanged for three sets.

Needles are easy to use. A small threader is given. Needles are not that easy to make.

The people of the Tubo tribe had no idea how fast Lijiazhuangzi made needles. They used a wire puller to pull the wire.

After the wire was pulled thin, there was a tool table. The wire was placed on it. A large iron block with a sharp point fell down. The sharp point went into the groove and punched holes in the wire in sections.

Lift it up, shift it to the side, and drop it down. Sections of the wire were cut.

Lift it up again, shift it to the side again, and drop it down. The punched holes were pressed all over.

Take it out, grind the back of it on a foot-operated grinding wheel by hand to make it smooth, and then grind the front to make it sharp. It is a needle.

When grinding, it is also facing the hole. First put the wire with the needle hole in it. There is a hole from thick to thin on the other side. The internal grinding wheel goes in and comes out.

Throw it aside, there are more, take it to the next person's position.

This person turns the wire around, puts the part that needs to be sharpened into the small hole, pokes it in, and then takes it out, and the needle tip appears.

The manual cold rolling machine is not as good as the pure automation of Li Yi at that time, but it saves a lot of time than making a formation now.

After making a set of needles, put it in a small box with a thimble and a small lead tool and sell it in a bamboo box.

The people of Jingzhao Prefecture and the surrounding areas of the Tang Dynasty bought it with their household registration, one set of one penny, and the thread was calculated according to the quantity according to how much they bought.

If you don't have a household registration, you can buy it for five pennies a set. If you think it's too expensive, make it yourself.

In Tubo, one sheepskin is exchanged for three boxes, and ten rolls of one or two taels of thread are given.

The places that are too far away can't be taken care of for the time being, and merchants buy them for five pennies a box and transport them to other places to sell.

The envoy saw that there were official stalls for selling things for the Tubo tribe.

There were kitchen knives, scissors, nails, etc., anyway, it was cheaper than making them by themselves.

They bought them with the jade and Dzi beads they brought.

In addition to using them themselves, they also had to take them back as gifts.

After taking a rest in the city, they set out to find the tribes the next day.

"We need twenty sheepskins or ten sheep." The leading envoy first came to the tribe of Bilala, which was the closest.

"No." Bilala didn't even make tea for him. He was determined to become a Tang Dynasty citizen.

In this case, you Tubo people come to me to ask for things, why should I give them to you?

"Say it again?" The envoy drew his sword.

Following a group of people around him, Bilala sneered: "Do you believe that I will let you die here? Go back and tell your Zamp that I, Bilala, have rebelled, and now we are Tang Dynasty people."

"Where is your honor as a Tubo person?" The envoys were all dumbfounded, rebel? You are guarding the front, if you rebel, what should we do?

"What honor? The honor of not having enough to eat and not having warm clothes? Now we are Tang Dynasty people, we are descendants of Yan and Huang."

Bilala pushed back confidently, afraid of you?

I've been living with you guys in fear all day long. If you get attacked, where are your logistics? Where are the reinforcements?

We only give you things and help you fight, but our people died?

The key is that I can't beat the Tang army, and I still hope to survive in the city in winter.

"Wait for the Zamp's army to come and encircle you. Let's go!"

The envoy was angry, threw down a harsh word, and took people to the next tribe.

Due to the heavy snow and difficult roads, it was noon when the envoy arrived at the next tribe living on the edge of the city.

When they arrived at the place, they saw a group of people practicing skiing. The children were the happiest, laughing and falling from time to time.

The leader of the tribe was enthusiastic and invited the envoys to drink red deer soup.

They got the news that there was a red deer that had fallen away from the team about 30 miles southwest.

They rode their horses and pulled the sled lent to them to see, and sure enough, it was old and could not bear the fatigue and cold and fell.

They brought back the antlers, deer skin, deer penis and other things to the Tang people in the city, and the deer tendons were also removed separately.

They ate the remaining meat themselves, and made soup for the elderly, children and women. The strong men did not eat it, because one deer was not enough.

In the past, the strong men ate it, but the elderly absolutely did not. Women who were pregnant and breastfeeding had it, and boys among the children had it.

Now, learning from the Tang Dynasty, the strong are responsible for protecting the weak.

As a leader, you can eat it, and the Tubo envoy happened to come.

The leader absolutely believed that as a Tang person, the Tubo envoy should be given a sip of soup when he arrived.

"I need you to fight the tribe over there." The envoy thought that the other party still regarded him as a noble person.

"Bilala's tribe? He is now a Tang citizen like us. How can I fight him? If I fight him, I will be a traitor to the Tang."

The tribal leader said that we cannot fight, we are a family.

"You rebelled too? Aren't you afraid that the Zamp will send troops?" The envoy understood.

"We have all become Tang citizens. We can live in the city. People will be sent outside to watch the livestock. Things will get better in the spring."

The tribal leader saw what the other party meant and probably had to borrow troops from the brothers next door.

I kindly remind you that it is useless to go there. This is the last time I can help you.

From now on, we will go our separate ways and bridges our own.

"Why?" The envoy did not expect that Tubo would lose not only land but also a large number of tribes in a war.

"Ask Zhaxi Kure, he made mistakes in command again and again, forcing us into a desperate situation, where is your logistics? You don't send troops.

We are facing a large number of sky rockets, hot air balloons, and explosive packs. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net

The deer soup you drink, the Tang Dynasty's hot air balloon was seen thirty miles away, we went to pick it up.

You tell me how to fight? Scouts can't get in within thirty miles. We are not afraid of death, but we can't die in vain."

The tribal leader complained that there were no reinforcements and logistics, and I was expected to fight the Tang Dynasty with my tribe?

If the Tang Dynasty wanted to annihilate the tribe, I would fight.

The Tang Dynasty didn't fight, and even discussed exchanging things. When encountering a snowstorm, they ran to help without weapons.

I fought for you and wiped out the entire tribe. Are you sure I still have a position in Tubo?

I also want to survive. Do you think the Tang Dynasty will not massacre the tribe?

Among them is Zhang Xiaosong. At the end of the battle in the Western Regions, he massacred three cities because of the resistance of the other side.
