A small town that has been abandoned for several years has become a decent military camp in just one day!

Even if Shang Zanpo saw it with his own eyes, he couldn't believe his eyes. After rubbing and rubbing, his eyes were swollen, so he had to accept this fact.

But I was thinking about how much manpower and material resources the military camp built this day would cost: 100,000 or 200,000?

There are only 30,000 people in Taozhou, and even if they all take action, it is impossible to build such a military camp overnight, right?

"Is it a bluff?"

Shang Zan Po suddenly thought of this, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. He led his soldiers to approach Guangen Town. Such a strange thing, if you don’t personally confirm it, how can you be willing to do so?

Three hundred steps...

Two hundred steps...

One hundred and fifty steps...

The closer Shang Zanpo got, the heavier the deeper he felt in his heart. The pieces of stone and wood were not mixed with fake ones.

Seeing that he was about to step into a distance of one arrow, Shang Zanpo had confirmed that the military camp opposite was not a simple decoration, but he really couldn't understand how this military camp was built.

As he racked his brains, dozens of black shadows flew over the opposite side, anxious and fast!

Before Shang Zanpo could react, the black shadow flew close by and flew across four feet away from him. The strong wind blew like a knife, making it difficult for him to open his eyes.

I heard a series of screams, and when I looked back, my eyes were full of tears: the warriors under my command fell down a series of horses, and huge crossbow arrows pierced through the chests of fifteen people in one breath, shooting a row of heroic warriors on the saddle, and some didn't even have the chance to shout.

More than a dozen crossbow arrows actually shot and killed more than a hundred of his soldiers...

The direction of the crossbow arrow is towards him. If it weren't for the lack of accuracy in such a strong crossbow, I'm afraid he would die like more than a hundred soldiers.

Not only did the other party build such a military camp, but they actually had powerful city-defying crossbows. What was even more shameless was that the other party hid the city-defying crossbows in the dark and attacked secretly! It was simply despicable and shameless.

Shang Zanpo only felt cold sweat flowing and complaining in his heart. If he had known this, he would not have come here for showing off.

When Pei Min saw that the winch crossbow shot missed, he secretly shouted "What a pity".

The winch crossbow is the most common city-guarding crossbow in the Tang Dynasty. It is as powerful as twelve stones. It is axle-turning cart and stringing it opens the bow. There are seven arrows on the crossbow arm. The arrow in the center is placed with a giant arrow, with iron leaves as feathers, and three slightly smaller arrows are placed on each side. The arrows are all at once, and they are unstoppable.

The winch crossbow was first brought by Pei Min from the Ministry of War to defend Taozhou.

Now that he occupied Guangen Town, he knew that it was even more necessary, he transported the winch crossbow over water. He expected that the other party would observe the military camp at close range, and specially hid two winch crossbows in the dark and attacked and shot. Unfortunately, although the purpose was achieved, such a powerful crossbow had always been a flaw and did not hit the ideal target.

"I will count one, two, three, and you shout to me: I'll be happy all the way, it's easy to go, I won't send you off!"

"one……"

"two……"

"three……"

"It's a blessing all the way, easy to walk, no gift!"

Just when Pei Min talked about the "second", Shang Zanpo decided to retreat after a brief consideration. The other side's military camp was solid. They came over a long distance, but the logistics supply was not enough, and there was no siege equipment. Thinking of Pei Min's deeds of blocking Qilixu, who was ten times more than his own, under the city of Jincheng with six thousand weak soldiers, he did not have the courage to continue fighting.

Just as he was about to speak, he heard a shout from the opposite side: "It's easy to leave, I won't send you off!"

The shouts of thousands of people rippled over the grassland, and the sound spread to all over the fields.

Shang Zan Po forced himself to swallow the words he said, feeling depressed: he had never seen such a cunning and shameless person, and he didn't even give him a way to retreat comfortably.

If he retreats now, wouldn’t he be afraid of Pei Min? But if he does not retreat, can he still attack?

dilemma!

Shang Zanpo gritted his teeth and said, "Retreat!" He looked at Guangenzhen indignantly, thinking to himself: "I will get it back sooner or later when I am embarrassed."

Looking at the obedient retreat of the Tubo soldiers, Guangen Town echoed a happy smile!

Seeing Shangzanpo's army retreating, Pei Min also thought to himself: "As sooner or later, I will take back Shibao City!" He did not know Shangzanpo, but the only one who could arrive at Guangen Town in one day was the Tubo army in Shibao City.

"Come!" Pei Min suddenly turned gloomy after Shang Zanpo left, and said, "Break the legs and arms of all the Tubo prisoners, let them kneel towards Taozhou outside the town, and let them repent!" After pausing, he suddenly thought that the Tubo people believed in heaven and burial, and believed that the body was swallowed by eagles. In the future, they would be like eagles. He immediately said, "Send archers to watch from the side. If there is a vulture and eagle, they will shoot directly. Even if they die, they will let every piece of meat on their bodies be rotten, instead of following their wishes."

With his order, nearly a thousand Tubo prisoners were interrupted and forced to kneel outside Guangen Town.

This incident spread and caused a stir in Tubo.

When dealing with Tubo prisoners, the Tang Dynasty has always been kind and righteous. Even if they encounter some ruthless people, they just kill them. Like Pei Min, they interrupted their hands and feet and made them kneel on the ground, and no one was insulted.

In an instant, the Tubo herders in Jiuqu land in Hexi were in panic.

************

When Pei Min's triumphal report reached Chang'an, Li Longji was doing a routine morning court, listening to the Ministry of Revenue talking about the spring plowing situation in various places.

Border war reports are above everything else, and there is the right to listen to the music first.

When Li Longji heard Gao Lishi's message, he immediately stopped the Ministry of Revenue's report and asked someone to submit the report.

Li Longji looked at the memorial written by Pei Min, and briefly scanned it. Seeing that it was good news, he said happily, "Okay!"

After reading this time, I looked at it carefully again and laughed and said to the ministers: "Pei Aiqing, I am really a pillar of my Tang Dynasty! He has only been in office for half a year. Not only did he annihilate 6,000 thieves who invaded Tubo, but he also regained Guangen Town and stationed the Shence Army in it. Haha, he built a military camp day and night, and now he allocated funds to me, intending to repair Guangen Town to serve as a stronghold of Shence Army! My dear friends, what do you think?"

There are many visionary officials among the civil and military officials.

Prime Minister Yao Chong was both civil and military, and saw the significance of Guangen Town to the current Tang Dynasty at a glance. Even if he and Pei Min were not in the same way, he had to say at this moment: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty! The occupation of Guangen Town can not only resolve the difficulties in Taozhou, but also threaten the Jiuqu of Hexi. It is a great joy. The governor Pei had to make such a wonderful contribution and should be rewarded. As for allocating funds to repair Guangen Town, it is natural!"

Li Longji laughed and said with a heartfelt laugh: "I have been waiting for Pei Aiqing's memorial to apply for funding to repair the military camp, and there has been no movement. However, I do not expect that the request was so good news that I can rest assured in the future!" He never concealed his appreciation and respect for Pei Min.

All civil and military officials are both envious and admired!

In the court, it is also a great contribution to the outstanding achievements.
