Gahai City is one of the five cities surrounding Qinghai Lake. It is located east of Qinghai Lake and is built next to Gahai.

According to legend, during the reign of Emperor Wu of Han, the Xiongnu were despaired in the north and the Qiangs were expelled in the west, so a large number of Qiang tribes were constantly forced to migrate. In the end, a large number of Qiang tribes settled around Qinghai Lake, which led to unprecedented prosperity in this area. Gahai City was established at that time.

But the legend is ultimately a legend, and it cannot be accurately done. In fact, except for Xihai County, which is Haiyan City, which was built by Ping Xian during the Wang Mang period, no one can explain clearly who was built by Gahai.

Moreover, since Wang Mang's death, the Central Plains' rule over the Western Regions has declined sharply. No one has ever fought in the Qinghai Lake area for hundreds of years. It was not until Duan Zhixuan led the army to pursue Fu Yun, who had repeatedly invaded the border, that gave the Central Plains Iron Cavalry the opportunity to set foot here again.

However, Fu Yun was still honest at this time. After Yang Guang's death, he chose to lie dormant and did not immediately attack Liangzhou. Therefore, Li Er had no plans to see him at the right time. He just hugged grass and beat rabbits, and sent Li Hao and other young people to practice their skills and weigh his weight.

On this day, in a very gorgeous palace in Gahai City, Fu Yun leaned on the wide bed, baring his chest to reveal the strong muscles inside. The beauty presented by his subordinates in his arms often fed a mouthful of grapes from mouth to mouth, which was indescribable.

In a corner of the palace, four or five musicians dressed in Hu were performing hard. Amid the music, seven or eight exposed-clad dancers in the center of the room twisted their enchanting waists hard.

If there is no accident, such a pastime will last until the sunset, when Fu Yun will go outside to set up a bonfire and invite his subordinates to enjoy the dinner together until they are drunk, and then continue this life the next day.

Not to mention Fu Yun himself, even those musicians find it boring.

But life is always full of surprises and surprises. Just when Fu Yun thought he would continue to be bored, a loud voice came from outside the palace: "Repay, king, there is an emergency military situation."

The dancer is Fu Yun's private property. Without his permission, anyone who sees who has needle holes, even his son will do the same.

Therefore, the guy who came to report the news could only stand outside and shout hard. As for whether he could hear it inside and when he could hear it, he could only leave it to fate.

Fortunately, the girl shouted very promptly this time, and the musicians changed the music.

"Finally something has been done." Fu Yun's big hand flashed across the beauty's chest in his arms, laughing wildly and waved his hands to let them retreat, and then shouted: "Come in!"

The footsteps sounded, and a soldier covered in dust and leather armor quickly stepped in from outside the face, and knelt down from far away from Fu Yun: "King, recently His Highness the Prince found out that a Tang Dynasty delegation was about to go to the Western Regions, with a total of as many as thousands."

"The Tang people went to the Western Regions?" Fu Yun sat upright, showing an interesting expression: "Where has that mission been?"

"Return to the King, I have arrived in Liangzhou, the Tang Dynasty three days ago."

"Liangzhou..., Humph, these Tang people are getting more and more courageous." Fu Yun's face darkened, he grabbed the wine cup on the table and drank it in a mouthful, and threw it heavily on the floor covering the top carpet of the Western Regions, making a "bang".

Liangzhou is located north of Gahai City. From a distance, starting from Chang'an and going out of Liangzhou is much farther than going to Jincheng and Tuyuhun; from a regional perspective, going to Liangzhou is equivalent to missing Tuyuhun perfectly, that is, the delegation did not regard Tuyuhun as a member of the Western Regions, and perfectly surrounded him.

How could Fu Yun, who was arrogant and arrogant, bear it? You know, he is a person who is not even afraid of Yang Guang.

The soldier lying on the ground lowered his head and did not dare to say a word, for fear that Fu Yun would be angry if he said something wrong.

After waiting for a long time, I heard Fu Yun's gloomy voice: "Tell Fu Shun, and ask him to invite the Tang Dynasty envoy to Gahai City no matter what. I want to ask this Tang Dynasty envoy himself why he didn't come to see me."

"As for your order." The little Bingbing said intimately that he saved his life. He left Fu Yun's palace happily, left Gahai City as fast as possible, and headed north.

...

Fu Shun was about 20 years old and was Fu Yun's legitimate son.

Over the years, Fu Yun is getting older and gradually begins to delegate power to him, giving him the power to lead troops.

But unlike him, Fu Shun always had a sense of awe for this powerful neighbor in the west.

The Tang Dynasty is too big. I heard that if you want to travel to every city in the Tang Dynasty, you will have to walk for a whole year even if you ride the fastest horse.

Moreover, that country has the most brilliant culture, the most advanced civilization and the most powerful army in the world.

The powerful Turks were defeated by them not long ago, and even the Khan of the Turks were captured alive by them to Chang'an.

With such a neighbor around him, Fushun didn't know whether it was good or bad. He could only try his best to make his subordinates who restrained him not go to provoke her. There were countless Hu merchants running around on the Silk Road, and Tuyuhun was not bad at the few copper coins in the pockets of the Tang merchants. What could he do to give them some face?

Unfortunately, my father didn't think so. The weakness in the late Sui Dynasty made the old man swell a little too much and did not take the powerful neighbor of the Tang Dynasty seriously.

Fu Shun knew that the old man wanted to be the king of the Silk Road and wanted to control this business road covered with gold and bones.

He didn't know how to persuade the old man to give up such unrealistic ideas, so he could only silently pray that the powerful neighbor would not turn his attention to the Western Regions and not pay attention to the slight disrespect of Tuyuhun.

"Your Highness, the king has ordered it."

Fu Shun, who was riding a horse and distracted on the grassland, came back to his senses and looked at his personal guard like a mud monkey: "What did the father say?"

The personal guard was the soldier who went to Gahai City to report to Fu Yun. He knew his little master's attitude towards the Tang people, and hesitated for a moment and said in a deep voice: "The king means... let us keep that mission and take it to Gahai City."

Fu Shun's pupils shrank slightly. Although the personal guards said tactfully, he couldn't understand why the old man meant to let him rob the mission and escort it to Gahai.

Waving his hand, Fu Shun said dejectedly: "You go down first, and order the entire army to assemble."

"Yes." The guard did not dare to look at Fu Shun. To be precise, he should not dare to look at those disappointed eyes. He bowed and retreated.

Soon, a melodious sound of horns came from the grassland.

...

Tubo, Jishishan camp.

With the support of the Tang Dynasty, Songtsen Gampo quickly formed a team and took advantage of the rebels' busy fighting for power and profit, and won half of Tubo in one fell swoop.

Yang Tong's tribe located in western Tubo saw that Songtsen Gampo's rise was unstoppable, so he quickly sent people to serve and planned to present Yang Tong's saint to Songtsen Gampo as his concubine.

It was under such circumstances that Wang Xuance arrived at Jishi Mountain and met the long-known Songtsen Gampo.

Songtsen Gampo had no airs and met Wang Xuance at the first time. As soon as he met, the Tubo king was happy: "Emister Wang, you have suffered all the way."

"Let's go, let the king, let's laugh." Wang Xuance's panting tongue was about to spit out, and he bowed with a wry smile.

Long before coming to Tubo, Li Hao once told him that Tubo has a high terrain and thin air, which can easily cause so-called qi diseases. If you find that you can't go up, it's best to stay in Songzhou for a period of time to adapt to the plateau climate.

However, Wang Xuance was afraid of delaying Li Hao's plan, so he stopped in Songzhou and climbed directly to the plateau with one move, which led to the current situation.

Seeing that Wang Xuance was about to die, Songtsen Gampo was somewhat dissatisfied and called his personal guards: "See Wang and let Wang take a good rest."

The chair was quickly lifted up. Wang Xuance didn't care about the top, bowed his hand and sat down honestly, not daring to move for a moment.

There is no way, this qi is so powerful that it cannot be held up with a strong will.

After waiting for a while, Songtsen Gampo saw that Wang Xuance's condition seemed to be getting better, then he asked, "Mr. Wang, is Li Shiduo doing well recently? I heard that he participated in the Northern Expedition of your country and was also a vanguard of the front army."

Speaking of Li Hao's Battle in Mobei, Wang Xuance replied proudly: "Thank you for your concern, my teacher is safe. In the battle of Mobei, he personally led 6,000 cavalry to defeat Jie Li and 100,000 Iron Cavalry, and his military achievements are the best."

So powerful? Six thousand to one hundred thousand, I can't tell that I can't help but do such a tough thing.

Thinking of the guy who used to be about the same age as me, laughing all day long and likes to take advantage of others' danger, Songtsen Gampo grinned.

"Emister Wang, I wonder what you are doing when you came to my Tubo this time?" A young man in his twenties suddenly spoke next to Songtsen Gampo.

Wang Xuance glanced at the young man: "This is..."

"Gar Dongzan." said proudly.

Wang Xuance's eyes narrowed, and he thought of someone who Li Hao specifically told him to be careful before leaving: "So you are Gar Dongzan, I heard from the teacher mention you."

After mentioning the teacher again and again, it finally attracted Songtsen Gampo's attention, interrupting Wang Xuance and Gar Dongzan and said, "Is Li Tiedou your teacher?"

"That's right." Wang Xuance nodded heavily and said with a clear contempt: "And this time I came here, I borrowed troops from your country by the order of my family."

This answer was not only unexpected for Songtsen Gampo, but also surprised the Tubo officials around him.

I heard the Gar Dongzan just now wonderingly: "Emister Wang, your country has no less than one million troops, but our country has only one hundred thousand cavalry at most, and most of them are fighting on the battlefield. Speaking of borrowing troops, it seems that our country should borrow troops from your country, right?"

Wang Xuance was prepared for this, and took a deep breath and continued: "No, this matter has nothing to do with the state affairs, it is my teacher's private affairs."

"Private affairs?" Gar Dongzan couldn't understand even more: "What do you mean is that your teacher borrowed troops from our country as a private person? Do you think this is possible?"

Wang Xuance replied without being soft or hard: "Is it possible that it depends on the opinions of your country's lord, do you think so?"

"Master..." Gar Dongzan looked at Songtsen Gampo, looking like he was eager to speak but stopped.

"Dongzan is calm." Songzan Gampo raised his hand to stop Gar Dongzan, and said to Wang Xuance with a smile: "I don't know how many soldiers the respected master wants to borrow? What is the purpose?"

"Twenty thousand cavalrymen, Tuyuhun." Wang Xuance said concisely.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to say too much, but he really has the will but lacks strength. If he says too much, he won’t be angry.

"Cough cough..." Songtsen Gampo was almost choked to death by his saliva. After coughing for a long time, he said in an incredible tone: "Are you saying that Li Dejian asked you to borrow 20,000 cavalry from me to attack Tuyuhun?"

"That's right." Wang Xuance was silent on the surface, but his throat was raised in his heart, for fear that the other party would refuse directly.

If that were the case, all the words he had prepared before would have become nonsense.

But soon, Wang Xuance found that his worries were purely unnecessary, and the Tubo king on the opposite side was silent, as if he was seriously considering his requirements.

As Gar Dongzan said, Tubo is currently fighting, and his own troops are in short supply. It is said that it is impossible for him to divide his troops out to help others.

But in fact, Songtsen Gampo was seriously considering what happened? Could this guy be crazy?

At this time, Gar Dongzan also closed his mouth and frowned tightly, with the surface exactly the same as Songzan Gantou.

After a long time, Songtsen Gampo's face relaxed and asked, "It's not impossible to consider that respecting the teacher wants to borrow 20,000 cavalry, but what are the benefits of this for me? Since respecting the teacher borrows soldiers from me in his personal name, I think he shouldn't have many soldiers to fight in his hands, right?"

"Yes, my army only has one thousand cavalry." Wang Xuance did not shy away and admitted directly.

It’s not that he can’t lie, but he insists on Li Hao’s side as an army of 100,000.

But the marching and war are a slight mistake. If Songtsen Gampo misjudgment caused by his lies and the final plan failed, he would never be able to bear such a responsibility.

"What? One thousand cavalry? What's the difference between not sending one soldier?" Gar Dongzan exploded before Songtsen Gampo could speak.

Tuyuhun borders Tubo, it is not unclear what the country is like.

That country is a country with less than 100,000 troops. If it really fights, it is not necessarily weaker than the Tubo cavalry.

At present, Tubo is making plans to restore the country, and a large number of cavalry are fighting within the territory. If Tuyuhun is thrown into two fronts, what is the difference between it and committing suicide?

Wang Xuance also felt that Li Hao’s request was a bit too much, but in order to complete the task, he still gritted the bullet and said, “My teacher said that if your country promises to help this time, you can waive the previous debt. Moreover, before I came this time, I brought 20,000 horizontal knives.”

"That's not..."

"Gar." Songtsen Gampo stopped Gar Dongzan again and said with a smile: "Empress Wang, if only such conditions are used, it will be difficult for the country to meet the requirements of respecting teachers. After all, we are also fighting at the moment and we are really unable to divide the troops."
