Zuo Xiangzhao Che: "We saw the commander Tang Jiuzheng, and he was very happy after reading the edict's request for peace.
He said,'Datang has always advocated peaceful coexistence with all ethnic groups, only conquering a few hostile forces.
It's true.
This time, I was dispatched by the emperor of Datang to conquer Tubo, which has repeatedly been enemies of my Datang, and tribes close to Tubo.
Right now, the defeated Tubo army fled west along Bonan Road.
Passing by your edict, because your edict had a feast with me in the Tang Dynasty, I was about to take this opportunity to wipe out your edict in one fell swoop.
Fortunately, you came in time. I have read the edict for peace and sincerely spoken, I am deeply moved.
In those days, Mengzhao Mengjian opposed Tang, and was also bewitched by Tubo.
Now, you are no longer an enemy of my Datang, since you have such sincerity, then we are friends.
You go back and convey my meaning.
Our army pursued and suppressed the defeated Tubo army, and when it passed your edict, we prepared some food and needed materials for our army.
Please relax your mind, my army will certainly do nothing against you. '
This is Tang Jiuzheng's personal letter to the edict. "
Zhao Yuan Zhaoyuan received Tang Jiuzheng's autograph letter, carefully read and looked at it, with a smile on his face.
Neisuanguan Goulu also rushed back.
Neisuanguan Goulu: "Zhao Lord, I found Mengshe Zhaowei Captain Mage.
Through his various inquiries, he found reliable news.
Meng Shezhao did not intend to take any action against me during the Tang Dynasty's conquest of Tubo. "
Zhao's master Zhaoyuan's heart became much more relaxed.
Zhao's chief Zhaoyuan immediately prepared rations and corresponding military supplies to meet Tang Jiuzheng's requirements.
On the one hand, strengthen defense along the Yangtze River.
After Zhaoyuan arranged all this, the leader of the Tubo army stationed in Shimenguan area begged to see him.
The leader is straight to the point: "Tang Jun is overwhelming, please help from the edict."
Zhaoyuan declined with polite words: "The Tang army is like a broken bamboo, invincible in all directions. We have prepared edicts in every way, like confronting the Tang army, like a pebble hitting a stone."
Chief: "Please don't forget our friendship."
Zhao Yuan: "This time, another time. Just because our friendship is first, please listen to my advice.
It is often said that “A man who knows the current affairs is a brilliant man”, your army is better off avoiding its edge and conserving its strength.
After the Tang Army retreats, isn't the world still ours? "
Without Zhaoyuan's support, the leader had to leave and return to Shimenguan.
When Tang Jiuzheng sent his army to attack the Tubo army at Shimenguan, he met Zhaoyuan, the master of the edict.
Zhao Yuan Zhaoyuan once again expressed to Tang Jiuzheng his friendly desire for Datang.
Tang Jiuzheng admired Zhaoyuan's vision.
Tang Jiuzheng pursued the defeated Tubo army by victory, and fought all the way to Yongchang.
During the triumph, Tang Jiuzheng ordered his subordinates to burn down the fortresses of Tubo buildings and demolish the iron chain bridges on the Yangbi River and the Shunbi River.
Zhao's master Zhaoyuan led two civil and military classes to wash the dust for Tang Jiuzheng.
Tang Jiuzheng raised his wine bowl: "The victory in this conquest of Tubo is inseparable from the strong support of your edict and friends.
For this, I would like to express my gratitude to the emperor and everyone. Come, we have done this bowl of wine and will be repaired forever. "
The atmosphere is warm and friendly.
Tang Jiuzheng: "In order to cut off the main traffic routes of Tubo, I have demolished the two iron chain bridges in Shunbi.
I will use these iron chains to cast iron pillars to remember the victory of this conquest. "
As a victor, Tang Jiuzheng confessed frankly with the two squads of Wen Bei Zhao:
"The battle between our soldiers and the Tubo army is the most arduous and tragic battle.
The corpses were everywhere, blood ran into rivers, and our soldiers suffered heavy casualties.
I want to erect iron pillars in the preparation edict.
After the iron pillars are built, worship is also regarded as an explanation to the soldiers who died in battle.
It is reasonable and reasonable to erect an iron pillar to remember the merits in the place where the victory was achieved.
I checked the terrain, and the iron pillar is more suitable to be erected beside the Zhulin Temple on the other side of the river.
Look, is it like this? "
