Chapter 365 News leaked

The reason why I didn't say it at first was because I was worried that the news would be leaked.

In the land of Hehuang, the Qiang and Tubo people live together, and there must be people from the other side.

Now that Tubo is retreating steadily, no one knows whether there is anyone in Tubo who is secretly communicating with the Qiang people.

Under such circumstances, if the purpose of the Song Dynasty was told to Tubo, the news would be easily leaked.

However, the leaders of the Tubo tribes refused to send troops because of the dark sky.

In fact, they were also afraid that the Qiang people would take advantage of their scheme and deliberately create chaos to attract them out of the city.

After all, in their opinion, the Qiang camp was not so easy to rob.

To put it bluntly, I was scared of being beaten by the Qiang people.

Wang Shao was furious to death, but he had no choice but to send troops to respond.

Gu Tingye chose to rob the camp late at night, only an hour before dawn.

When Wang Shao led his troops to a few miles away from the Qiang camp, they met Gu Tingye who was being chased with the remaining soldiers.

Seeing reinforcements coming from the other side, they were worried that there was a deception, so the pursuing cavalry retreated.

"Zichun, if you come a little later, I have to explain it here."

Gu Tingye was covered in blood, panting heavily, threw the spear to the side, and lay down directly on the ground.

Charge and kill in a camp of hundreds of thousands of people, even if the opponent is already in chaos, he is still very tired even now.

Forget about him, many of the soldiers who escaped with him lay down without strength.

"General, this is not far from the Qiang camp. We have to leave quickly. Once the Qiang people react, it will be troublesome to send troops to pursue them." Wang Shao said.

"Yes, let's leave quickly!"

Gu Tingye's physical fitness is not bad and he has recovered a little at this time. He knows that he cannot delay here.

Wang Shao quickly ordered the soldiers to help those who were out of strength and retreat.

After returning to Hezhou City without any danger, I breathed a sigh of relief.

Back at the camp, Wang Shao had already had hot water and meals prepared.

Gu Tingye and the others simply cleaned it and then ate it hungrily.

Wang Shao finally felt relieved when he saw that Gu Tingye, Yuan Wenshao and Sheng Changwu were not injured.

Apart from Gu Tingye, these two people were the ones he was most worried about.

They are the relatives of the official's favorite concubine, and it will be difficult to explain if something happens to them.

Originally, he didn't intend to let the two of them go, but they insisted and Gu Tingye nodded, so he had to agree.

Gu Tingye ate some meat and felt better. He slowed down his eating movements and said, "All the Tubo tribes refused to send troops?"

"That's right!" Wang Shao said angrily: "These people are really short-sighted. If they are willing to send troops, they can hurt the Qiang people this time."

The defeat is like a mountain. Since ancient times, in all battles in which a small number wins a large number, no matter what the strategy is, the essence is to make the opponent chaotic and unable to effectively command.

No matter how elite the army is, it will fall into chaos if it does not receive effective command.

When the enemy is chasing them, the soldiers will just run away and disrupt their own formation.

Even a powerful general cannot save himself from this situation.

Gu Tingye's robbery of the camp has completely thrown the Qiang camp into chaos. As long as Tubo takes the opportunity to send troops, it will definitely seriously damage the Qiang people's vitality.

That way it would be much easier to win over the Qiang people.

"As expected."

Gu Tingye didn't care when he heard this and said with a smile: "But this is also a good thing."

"Huh?" Wang Shao looked at Gu Tingye doubtfully.

"I didn't expect that the Qiang camp was completely unprepared. There wasn't even a horse pit dug around the camp. The Qiang people suffered a lot from the robbery this time. If the Tibetan tribes sent troops, they might be able to directly destroy the Qiang people." Gu Tingye said.

"That's indeed a good thing." Wang Shao nodded.

Their purpose was to occupy Hehuang, not to completely wipe out the Qiang and Tubo people.

Otherwise, what's the point of getting an open space. "Report!"

At this moment, a soldier came in and saluted: "General, Tubo sent someone to ask the general to come and lie down!"

"I guess I knew you were coming back, so I asked you to go over and ask about the results of the battle." Wang Shao said.

"Well, I'll go over now. You can write a good news and send someone to Bianjing." Gu Tingye said.

Although they have Zhao Xing's secret order, they must have the battle report after the battle.

"I know, are you just going there like this?" Wang Shao asked.

At this time, Gu Tingye had only been briefly cleaned, and his armor was somewhat damaged and covered with blood stains.

"Isn't it a good idea to go like this? It will just shock them and save them from taking us seriously." Gu Tingye sneered.

There was a run-in yesterday and he had a seizure right after he arrived.

Now that the hijacking of the camp was successful, it was time for those people to wake up.

"I don't think the general needs to be intimidated in this way. The results are enough. The general can show them off, take a shower and change clothes before going." Wang Shao said with a smile.

"What Zichun said makes sense, then I'm going to take a bath. It's really uncomfortable to be sticky." Gu Tingye laughed.

…………

In Bianjing, in the Royal Garden of the Imperial Palace, Zhao Xing was walking with Zhang Guifen.

"Your Majesty, I heard that the Xixia envoy will arrive in Bianjing soon. Your Majesty has not yet named the brother born to Concubine Li Xian." Zhang Guifen reminded.

"Um...oh, yes, I almost forgot about this."

Zhao Xing was thinking about things and came back to his senses after hearing this.

It's been almost two months since Li Yunchu gave birth to her baby, and she hasn't even picked a name yet.

When the Xixia envoy arrives this time, he should meet Li Yunchu anyway. If he learns that Li Yunchu has given birth to a child for so long and doesn't even have a name, he will inevitably make excuses.

Zhao Xing is not afraid, but it is not good to spread the word.

"If your Majesty has something to do, you don't need to accompany me specially. I can just walk around by myself." Zhang Guifen said.

"I'm fine, I just have a headache because of my aunt's matter." Zhao Xing sighed.

When news spread that Zhu Shiquan was going to be beheaded, Sun entered the palace and asked to see Zhao Xing.

After being rejected, she asked to see Zhang Guifen and Princess Zhu respectively.

With Zhao Xing's instructions, it was naturally impossible for this news to be sent to Zhu.

The result that Ms. Sun got was that she was missing. As a result, Ms. Sun knelt directly outside the palace.

"How about I, my concubine, meet her once and try to persuade her?" Zhang Guifen said.

"Forget it!"

Zhao Xing hesitated when he heard this, shook his head and said: "She can't listen to anything she says at this time, and her persuasion is in vain!"

"But..."

Just as Zhang Guifen was about to say something, a chambermaid trotted over from a distance.

Sanshui went up to him. After hearing what the chamberlain said, his expression changed and he hurried back.

"Your Majesty!"

Sanshui bowed and said: "Concubine Zhu fell into a coma after learning the news that Zhu Shilang was going to be executed!"

"What?" Zhao Xing got angry when he heard this and said, "What does Liu Sanshi do for food?"

"Your Majesty, calm down!" Zhang Guifen quickly advised: "This is not the time to pursue the case. We should first go see how my mother and concubine are doing."

"Well!" Zhao Xing calmed down a little, nodded and said: "You go back to the palace first, and I'll go see my mother and concubine."

"I will go with Your Majesty." Concubine Zhang said: "That way, if my mother is angry, I can help persuade her."
