Chapter 349 Empathy

There are many generals in the Tang Dynasty. Because they are all founding generals, Li Shimin canonized more generals. But even if there are a large number of people, there is no need to send them here. If there is a war, the Tang Dynasty will send out generals. , there is only one general with this surname, and that is Qin Qiong, who commanded the battle here some time ago.

Qin Qiong's ability is both literary and military. Compared with Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong is a real commander. If this person comes with an army, then the Tang Dynasty must know the situation on the plateau and may want to If these people are involved in military intervention, the Tubo Kingdom will never survive.

"I'm really sorry. I heard it just now. I don't know which general from your country is here. When I was in Chang'an City, I was entertained by some generals. Now I am on the territory of Tubo. Why don't you invite me? Lord Protector, I would like to introduce you to you, I also want to admire the Tang Army's style."

If he hadn't heard those few words, he probably could have treated it normally. After hearing those few words, this guy felt very itchy in his heart. If it was just like this, it would be really hard to say, so in this situation Despite the situation, he still wanted to go over and see what was going on.

"this……"

Master Zeng's behavior is also normal. Although he is the protector of Tuyuhun, according to the system of the Tang Dynasty, his official position is not as good as that of the general. He can make the decision in matters here, but it involves Chang'an City. I'm afraid he can't make the decision on some things, so it's normal to show hesitation.

"If Lord Protector is in trouble, I will go back first, but I would also like to ask Lord Protector to recommend me."

Lu Dongzan saw that Mr. Zeng had no intention of agreeing, so he did not continue to ask. After all, this is an internal matter within the Tang Dynasty. If you insist on going there and they are unwilling, then your face will fall on the ground. .

"Of course there is no problem with this. We are so close. If the general is fine tomorrow, I will be my host and invite the Prime Minister to come over."

All the words were thought up in advance. I don’t tell you who is coming, but I have to give you a general idea. Anyway, I can’t let you go back. Originally, Lu Dongzan was on the verge of going berserk just now, so we agreed. You are still unwilling to pay tribute, but when the general of the Tang Dynasty came, the dissatisfaction in his heart disappeared. Who made our current situation unfavorable?

It was indeed General Qin Qiong who came, and he came with his 25,000 cavalry. These people should also go to the grassland to experience it. Many of them are in the inland areas. According to General Qin Qiong’s idea, if not If you go to the grassland to practice, how can you be called a qualified cavalry? Only when you reach this prairie can you realize how vast the sky is.

"I look a lot thinner than when I was in Chang'an."

General Qin Qiong looked at Lu Dongzan's back and said, "This can be regarded as a famous figure in Tubo, but he was put into disgrace by our famous figure in the Tang Dynasty. If you want to blame it, we are not a family."

"The general is pitiful. My life has not been easy since I arrived on this plateau. This guy has evil intentions and has been plotting against me, the Tang Dynasty. Otherwise, why would I have to dig holes for him one after another?"

Li Xiang's words made everyone laugh. Lu Dongzan is a person with personal charm. At the same time, this guy is also very ambitious. If we don't let him get busy, we will be the ones who are busy. There can be no mistakes in the process, otherwise the entire Tang Dynasty will be lost. This is the relationship between countries.

"Your Highness, I also thought about it on the way here. Are we really going to intervene with armed force? Our current strength on the grassland is not weak. Add all the troops together, plus His Highness's new weapons. If we are now If they march into Tubo, they will also suffer huge losses."

After entering the tent, General Qin Qiong said what he was thinking. He was thinking about this issue along the way. Li Xiang's method was indeed good, let them fight among themselves, but this would take a long time. If If the time is short, we won't see much effect at all, and we have to pay so much money. We might as well take people up directly, kill all their people in the border areas, and force them to sign the alliance under the city, just like The same thing happened to Tuyuhun back then.

"The general has come a long way. I'll go down first to see the food."

When talking about these things, Midu Khan felt uncomfortable all over. They were in such a position back then, and now they heard that Li Xiang and the others were plotting against others. He felt the same way, not to mention that there were some things that he didn't know. I'm willing to listen, so I might as well go down and prepare the meal.

Several other people looked at each other, and then said a few polite words. We are also outsiders on the Tuyuhun grassland, and they are the original owners. It is indeed disrespectful to say these things in front of others, but then again. Now, your identity is that of Tang Dynasty’s dog. You may be given some time to adapt now, but after two or three generations, you won’t even have this time.

"This old guy hasn't adapted yet?"

General Qin Qiong didn't have anything nice to say in the face of his former defeated generals. This was mainly because the Tang Dynasty had many foreign campaigns and defeated many people, including the Turkic Khans. Do we have to appease them? Then I should stop doing anything every day.

"It's normal for people to have such thoughts. After all, he is also the king of the grassland. Let's not be disturbed by him and continue talking about things on the plateau. We do have a lot of people, but according to my estimation, if we If we really reach the plateau, these tens of thousands of troops will not be able to exert even one-tenth of their combat effectiveness, and we don't know much about the local terrain. As long as they set up a few ambush points along the way, we will be defeated. If it is inevitable, then this favorable situation will be gone.”

Li Xiang came down from the plateau, so he naturally knew what the conditions were like on this section of the road. The Tibetan army had gone back and forth several times, but when they came over, some of their cars overturned down the mountain. If we were to take this road, , then we don’t know how many non-combat attrition there are in the middle.

Conquering the enemy without fighting is a result that we all pursue, and it is also the case today. If you go to the battlefield in person, it will be difficult to end with a defeat...
