Chapter 281 (1/2)

Wei Ran and a Li know nothing about what happened in Chang'an thousands of miles away.

After the bone shrinking skill was completed, he went down the mountain to the West.

On the way, Wei Ran, based on the people in the portrait, pretended to be a broken precepts monk with a beard, a ferocious face, a fat body and bare breasts.

It also adjusts the body's metabolism, controls hair growth and nutrition in hair, and deliberately makes the beard on one face stained with a little white frost. In this way, he looks like a Jianghu villain in his fifties, which makes it more difficult for people to doubt his identity.

When walking, he carried a convenient shovel in his hand. A Li turned into a human shape, shook his two legs and sat at the end of the shovel, which was very stable and coordinated with Wei Ran's walking rhythm.

From time to time, people on the road were attracted by this wonderful scene and stopped to watch. I wonder how such a lovely girl next door could walk with such a ferocious monk. Looking at the girl's complacent appearance, it doesn't look like being kidnapped and trafficked.

But the monk is really ferocious. If he looks more, he will be angry, scold and arrogant.

According to a Li's tracking of the relatively clear spirit grabbing node, it is also moving. Considering that such a strong soul grabbing node can not be made into personal items, the object is likely to be a human.

Before, he was still in Tubo. Some time ago, he suddenly entered Shanzhou City defended by the original Longyou Shence border army and stationed down.

After inquiry, it turned out that the new emperor officially ascended the throne, and Zuo Shence's border army had long been transferred back to Chang'an by the former Emperor. Longyou's defense was empty, and Tubo took advantage of it, sent troops from the west of Qinghai, captured Shanzhou and kuozhou, and threatened Lanzhou Hezhou. At the same time, the silk road was cut off, leaving Anxi towns alone again.

At present, this group of Tubo troops take Shancheng as the base and look at the territory of the eastern Tang Dynasty, while the army composed of Lanzhou Hezhou regiment is still difficult to defend the city, let alone go out of the city for field operations.

Therefore, the local aristocratic families first asked the imperial court to send Zuo Shence army to resist the enemy. But the imperial court was in a difficult financial time. The new emperor felt that the border town was not a big deal. He was unwilling to allocate funds to send troops. He just wanted to build a palace to entertain himself.

Although Zhang Zhen obtained huge political benefits through Jiao Zhao, the civil power can not be underestimated. The two sides are locked in a bitter struggle, and the situation here can not be ignored.

So the local aristocratic families came up with an idea. They even offered money to invite the Hexi Jiedu envoy to send troops for assistance, and were willing to help the Hexi Jiedu envoy rule Longyou road. If the imperial court doesn't want me to wait, I can only sell myself to the warlords.

Therefore, the soul grabbing node perceived by a Li should come from which tribal chief or noble in Tubo, and the current situation in Longyou is tense. Hexi Jiedu envoy will not refuse the meat sent to his mouth. He has sent troops to Longyou.

Now it has occupied Lanzhou and Hezhou. Taking Lanzhou as the logistics base, it is sending troops to Shanzhou and is fighting fiercely with Tubo.

It seems that there will be a big war between the two sides around Shanzhou. Shancheng is located in Xining, Qinghai, not far from Qinghai Lake. The terrain here is mostly mountainous. With the split fighting capacity of Tubo, it is not difficult for the Wuwei army of Hexi Jiedu envoy to defeat them in mountainous areas.

However, when Tubo retreated to Shibao city as a strategic support point and saw with Hexi Wuwei army, Hexi Wuwei army may not be able to see for a long time.

After all, Shibao city is a world-famous dangerous pass, controlling and controlling the main traffic roads. From a commanding position, you can observe the movement of troops within a radius of tens of miles. Whoever occupies this place will have the initiative in military strategy. Datang fought against Tubo repeatedly here, and each time he lost a lot before he could conquer it.

Li Chengye fought with the Tubo Huihe allied forces and lost more than ten thousand soldiers here. Finally, in terms of strategy, use anti separatism and separatism to provoke discord between Tubo and Huihe, and then induce the other party to take the initiative to destroy its main force. The stone castle was no longer supported by the main force. It took tens of thousands of elite to attack it.
