    Chapter 522

    ¡­¡­

    Duan Zhixuan was a little confused about Li Chengqian's laughter.

    But he also felt that there was something wrong with what he said. Just thinking about it, he still didn't understand what was wrong.

    Just when he was about to ask Li Chengqian, soldiers came to the door to report that Songzhou had come to report.

    Now Songzhou is a stone hanging on everyone¡¯s mind. When they heard the word Songzhou, both Li Chengqian and Duan Zhixuan were shocked.  

    The two stood up immediately. Li Chengqian bumped into the table. The tea cup on the table was accidentally knocked over. The green tea overflowed and wet the book Li Chengqian was holding on Duan Zhixuan's desk.  The tools created after graffiti can be used in the latrine, that's it.  But Li Chengqian didn't care about the fruits of his labor. He even stopped laughing and followed Duan Zhixuan out.

    I greeted the old dragon who was sitting on the mound dug for the foundation, chatting and spanking with the polo players. The old dragon jumped up and quickly led the horse over.

    Duan Zhixuan's logistics soldiers also brought him horses. He and Li Chengqian jumped on the horses at the same time, clamped the horse's belly with their calves, and headed towards Chang'an.

    Yesterday, the other half of the cement road on Zhuangzi had been paved. When walking on it, the hooves of the horses clacked.

    Although Duan Zhixuan is concerned about the military report in Songzhou, he is already on the road and cannot rush.  He listened to the sound of the horse's hooves and sighed: "Your Highness, your invention of the horseshoe is so good. Ever since I saw the slap invented by Your Highness, I have begun to admire Your Highness!"

    Oh, I didn¡¯t expect this to be a fan of Li Chengqian!

    And from the looks of it, he is a sensible and die-hard fan.  Such fans are hard to find!

    Duan Zhixuan lowered his head and looked at the cement road below and said, "The cement invented by Your Highness must be of great use. I wonder where this cement can be used to build roads?"

    Li Chengqian said: "As long as you have enough technology, you can build a road anywhere, even above or below the water!"

    This is true. The bridges over the water and the tunnels under the water can be made of cement, but the technical requirements are a bit high.

    Duan Zhixuan nodded thoughtfully and came out of Zhuangzi.  After running from the concrete road to the dirt road, the horse was obviously not as lively as before.

    This made Duan Zhixuan even more compared.

    He thought for a while, put his thoughts aside, and remembered Li Chengqian's laughter just now, and asked curiously: "Your Highness, I was talking to you about male pigeons just now. How much did you laugh?"

    As soon as he heard him mention the topic just now, Li Chengqian wanted to laugh again.

    Seeing that Duan Zhixuan's face was a little dark, Li Chengqian said: "Has General Duan thought about the example of women taking care of the house at home? Men have gone to defend their families and the country? Well, what if the men go out to fight and come back three years later, the women at home will  I gave him a son who was just one month old. Be happy, you can fight and let the women at home have children, the best of both worlds!"

    Duan Zhixuan just said that.  I just came up with the idea.  During the first few sentences, Duan Zhixuan was still nodding.

    But what follows is wrong.  Three years and a full moon, this is the wrong time.  No matter how poor Duan Zhixuan's physiological knowledge was, he still knew a few things about men and women. Soon his face turned green, and the only thing missing was that he wore a green hat to make it more impressive.

    Seeing his expression, Li Chengqian knew that he had thought of it. He chuckled and said, "So this male pigeon can't be let go just because he says he's fine. Without it, the eggs really can't hatch into pigeons."

    Duan Zhixuan nodded dejectedly.

    Li Chengqian continued: "If you ask me, if this woman takes maternity leave, she should also give the man maternity leave, because it is impossible without a man!"

    Duan Zhixuan didn¡¯t know about maternity leave, but he knew that Li Chengqian would come up with strange words from time to time, so he didn¡¯t think twice about it.

    Several horses quickly entered Chang'an, and soon entered the palace and arrived at the Manlu Palace.

    When the two of them arrived, there were already many ministers inside, and everyone had a smile on their face. Old Li was sitting at the top, laughing, just like Li Chengqian laughed at the cuckold just now!

    Look at this, this is good news!

    Sure enough, after the two came in, someone immediately told them the good news.

    Niu Jinda won a big victory in Songzhou!

    The military newspaper was extremely long and explained the details clearly.  It turns out that when Niu Jin arrived in Songzhou, he did not immediately confront the enemy head-on. Instead, he showed his weakness to the enemy first. Not only did the main force hide in the city, but he also sent a small number of troops out to confront the enemy.  As soon as they came into contact, they immediately came back in defeat, pretending that they could not be beaten. Finally, after enduring it for many days, the Tubo army's morale was lifted.Arrogant and arrogant, he got into Niu Jinda's trap, was tricked once, and killed tens of thousands of people.

    The Tubo army was shocked and frightened. Niu Jinda led the army and charged in. The morale of the Tubo army was low. More than 100,000 people were overwhelmed by tens of thousands. The Tubo commander was frightened when he saw that he was no match for the Tang Dynasty.  He was emboldened and quickly fled with his soldiers.

    But Niu Jinda went all out and chased and killed more than 20,000 people. Tubo was so frightened that he abandoned a border town near Tubo and ran back to Tubo.

    ??This is a great victory since nearly 30,000 Tubo people were killed. No wonder Lao Li is so happy!

    Now that Niu Jinda has won, Hou Junji's 50,000 troops sent out before are now useless, and an order will be issued immediately for Hou Junji to lead his troops back to the court.

    Similarly, the previous imperial edict to capture Niu Jinda was withdrawn halfway. Now a new edict is written to commend Niu Jinda.

    Someone proposed that Niu Jinda return to Chang'an to receive commendation, but he was immediately rejected by Li Jing, a veteran military figure. Now that he had just won a big victory, he should stay there to shock the enemy and make Tubo jump in fear for a while.  Moreover, we also got a small border town in Tubo. If the commander ran away now, the morale of the soldiers who stayed there would be shattered immediately.

    So Niu Jinda had to stay there for three and a half months before he could return to Beijing.

    While they were talking happily there, Li Chengqian thought of what Lao Li said a few days ago, but Lao Li's calculation was correct.  Niu Jinda is indeed a general.  And Hou Junji was eager to go to Songzhou, but this time he was slapped in the face. When he came back, he was afraid that his face would be tarnished.

    After the matter was discussed, the ministers all retreated. At this time, Li Xiaogong came in and showed Lao Li a piece of paper.

    After reading it, Lao Li couldn't help but nodded and laughed.

    Li Chengqian was very curious about what this was, and Li Xiaogong seemed to have no intention of hiding it from Li Chengqian. He told Li Chengqian: "This is information sent back by spies from Tubo."

    The last time Lu Dongzan returned to Tibet, a large number of spies followed him.  I didn't expect the information to come back so soon, and it arrived together with the Songzhou news. Could it be related?
