Chapter 614 Songzhou Support Journey
The Tibetans were scared. They were overwhelmed in momentum. Is there anything more bullying than asking questions about the same thing repeatedly?
The Tibetans felt a strong malice. Was he stupid?
"Bet, give me three days. The result will be known on the 20th of the first lunar month."
Isimba knew that he could not back down. If he did, the onlookers would spread the news of Tibetan incompetence.
Li Yi continued to cover his hands: "After this bet is over, you, Tibetans, need to bring the hostages before we can compete again. Otherwise, we will bet 500,000 strings of cash and both sides will bet against each other."
"Okay." Bo E agreed. Morale must not be lost.
Li Yi turned his head and ignored them. He shouted to the onlookers: "The cattle and horses are now fattened. Let the farm raise them for half a month and then rent them to people in need."
"Master Li, I would like to take one back now to fatten it."
"Master Li, I want to take the cattle away. I have a cow at home. I used it as green storage last year and there are many left."
"Master Li, you are awesome. I think a horse is good. Can you decide on one first?"
"Master Li, we will help you drive the cattle and horses back to the farm."
The people started to shout, and each of them looked happier than Li Yi.
"Let's go." Li Yi shouted again.
With the help of the people, the team of Li's farm took 2,900 horses and 2,100 cattle and walked south along Zhuque Street.
You have to go out from the south and go back to the farm.
One is to go directly east, and the road will be blocked.
The other is to brag about the street and show off.
Many people stood on both sides of Zhuque Street to watch the team pass by, and said to others that Tubo had lost again.
"Go back, attack the enemy's strategy with the best strategy, Tubo's offensive with righteousness was broken." Yao Chong was relieved, Tubo lost to Li Yi in the battle of wits.
He also lost in the battle of courage, Li Yi threw out 50,000 strings for the next bet, and then wanted to bet again, so he took out the 500,000 strings of bets and gambled.
If Li Yi wins again on the 20th of the first lunar month, Tubo will not dare to bet.
If Li Yi loses on the 20th of the first lunar month, Tubo will worry whether Li Yi lost on purpose.
If you are false, you should be real, if you are real, you should be false, and all is fair in war.
Lu Huaishen imitated Li Yi and put his hand in front to warm it up with his breath: "Tubo lost too much money at the hands of Li Yi, and he is eager for quick success and instant benefits, which is a taboo for military strategists."
Zhang Shuo smiled: "They were cheated by the hot air balloon. When Li Yi built the hot air balloon, the states were already in a weak position."
"If hot air balloons can be sold, how much tax should be collected?" Bi Gou suddenly said.
Everyone looked at him together.
"Let me give you an example." Bi Gou reacted and quickly changed his words, otherwise the imperial physician would be sent to treat him again.
Li Yi's team had not left Chang'an City yet, and the people along the way cheered. The team was moving slowly.
If the cows don't run crazy, the speed is not fast, and they walk a little bit.
Guo Ziyi looked at the cows and horses, and chatted with Li Yi with a smile: "Tubo has lost too much money from you, but the border is stable, and the soldiers there..."
"Border?" Li Yi suddenly emphasized two words.
"That's right, border..." Guo Ziyi nodded.
"There is something. Can the Yulin Flying Cavalry run to Songzhou with hot air balloons and explosive packs in a month?" Li Yi's expression became serious.
"Songzhou..." Guo Ziyi's mind had a map, Songzhou, which was the closest to Tubo at this time.
At the same time, he estimated the distance. The road was difficult to travel, with many mountains and rivers.
After half a quarter of an hour, he finally spoke: "It is difficult for the cavalry to supply along the way, unless the power of every local government is mobilized. If they change to walking, the Yulin Flying Cavalry can carry and carry things to the place in half a month."
When he said this, his expression was solemn. The Yulin Flying Cavalry needed to abandon their horses and march all the way.
Li Yi shook his head: "Traveling through mountains and rivers, people carrying heavy objects, someone in the Yulin Flying Cavalry will get into trouble. I will write a letter to your majesty."
After speaking, he got into the car and wrote a letter.
Not long after, he handed it to Guo Ziyi, who took the letter and rode his horse into another road and ran around.
Li Longji received the report that Li Yi had earned a large group of cattle and horses. When he was happy for Li Yi, Guo Ziyi came around from the forbidden garden behind.
"Your Majesty, Li Yi wants to use the Yulin Flying Cavalry to deliver things to Songzhou." Guo Ziyi said, and handed over the letter.
"Songzhou?" Li Longji thought about it for a while and knew where it was.
He took the letter, which said, 'I don't know whether Tubo will attack Songzhou in mid-February. As long as there is a war, even if the Tang Dynasty wins, many soldiers will be sacrificed.
If hot air balloons and explosive packs are sent, there will be no war, which can boost the morale of Songzhou. If there is a war, the Tang Dynasty will lose fewer soldiers.
Relaying supplies along the way will cost a lot of money at this time. Lijiazhuangzi is willing to pay for it with exchange coupons, and not ask the local government to bear it. '
That's all the letter said, without any literary talent.
"Alas! Prepare manpower, three thousand Yulin flying cavalry, one person with two horses, order local officials to pay, Yu Huaide goes back and forth, I said that local governments are not allowed to accept bribes.
They ignored my words and made a lot of money. Take out a part, otherwise, kill them!"
Li Longji was not going to let Li Yi spend money again, he had a backup plan.
Why should the government and the people pay for manpower and labor? The officials who took the money reached into their pockets.
Guo Ziyi received the order and went to find manpower first.
He selected 2,000 veterans and 1,000 new soldiers, and the veterans were skilled in treating wounds.
When he led the team to Lijia Village, Li Yi rushed back first and ordered the farmers to prepare things.
His data showed that Tubo sent troops again in February to attack Songzhou and besiege Songzhou.
Normally, Songzhou would hold on, and Tubo would have no good way to take Songzhou.
Songzhou Governor Sun Renxian was worried that Tubo soldiers would besiege Songzhou City, so he sent other troops through Songzhou to attack the rear of the Tang Dynasty.
So when we saw the enemy besieging the city, we decided not to defend the city and led our troops out of the city to beat the Tubo army.
Li Yi was not sure whether Tubo would send troops now. What if they did?
The result of the war was good. The Tang Dynasty won and the Tubo army was driven away.
In the process of fighting, people would inevitably die.
Sending good weapons would reduce the number of casualties on our side, especially the soldiers of the Yulin Flying Cavalry, who knew simple battlefield medical treatment.
Many soldiers did not die in direct fighting, but died after fighting because of injuries and infections.
"I can't mess around recently. I have to wait for the situation to develop naturally, otherwise it will easily cause trouble." Li Yi decided to be quiet for a while.
When Guo Ziyi saw Li Yi, he said, "Your Majesty wants to force officials who accept bribes from caravans along the way to pay money, three thousand Yulin flying cavalry, and two thousand veterans."
"Okay, I'll bring you medical kits. This time I'll use a gasoline blowtorch. UU reading www.uukanshu.net The explosive pack is made of ordinary black powder, so it's easy to operate. Pay attention to safety."
When Li Yi heard that he didn't have to pay for it himself, he simply transported more things.
He asked people to get meat floss and bamboo tube meat cans, dried vegetables, dried fruits, and bamboo tube fruit cans.
"We have two horses each." Guo Ziyi frowned when he saw what Li Yi asked people to take out.
"I know, the other Yulin flying cavalry will give you a section of the way first, and when you get to the place, the speed is actually the same. The length of the team does not affect the speed of progress."
Li Yi laughed twice. If there are more things, can the officials pay less money?
In a few days, Yu Huaide and others will set off again and continue to bribe. Everyone follows the routine.
During the day's preparation, the Yulin flying cavalry who are about to set off should sleep well.
On the morning of the 17th, a large group of people and vehicles set out to the west, heading for Songzhou.
