Chapter 707: Toughness requires ability

"You think too highly of them. I don't need to tell you how poor the countries in the Western Regions are. You have hundreds of thousands of troops at every turn. Do you expect the countries in the Western Regions to be able to support them? Even Gaochang State can't afford it. "

The Khan of the Western Turks suddenly thought of another thing. When Li Xiang and the others conquered Goguryeo, they dispatched more than 200,000 troops. The strength of the Western Turks was even stronger than that of Goguryeo. So many of your troops came In the Western Regions, do you eat sand every day?

"Hundreds of thousands of troops? Your Majesty, you think too highly of yourself. How is the combat effectiveness of our army? I believe there is a comment in your heart. Without talking nonsense, with an army of at most 30,000 to 50,000, I guarantee that we can pacify the Western Region."

Li Xiang had almost finished his roast leg of lamb. Although the two sides were at war with each other, Li Xiang kept eating and was not affected by the surrounding situation at all.

Li Xiang's words made the Western Turk Khan speechless. He had indeed seen the combat effectiveness of the Tang army. Now there are only less than 10,000 Tang troops, which has already brought huge pressure to them. It is really difficult for both sides. The gap is too big, they are no longer on the same level, and our fighting method is of no use to others.

"If that's the case, then why don't you mobilize the army to take down the entire Western Region? Why are you still spending so much time now?"

When the Western Turks Khan also had a bright idea, he asked this question because he wanted to know what Li Xiang was thinking. The Tang army now has a total of hundreds of thousands of people. It is okay to gather an army of tens of thousands, but why is it so big? The Tang army never attacked?

Li Xiang was also thinking about how to answer. After years of war, there was not much money left in the Tang Dynasty's treasury. The countries in the Western Regions are vast. If we occupy them all, it would be very difficult at present, and it would also be difficult. There is no way to carry out effective management, and it can be said that the gains outweigh the losses.

"Since you said that, I won't explain anything else. Then I will let you see how powerful the Tang army is. I just don't know if you have the talent."

Li Xiang knew that it was useless to argue, so he simply acted like he was going to attack. Of course, Li Xiang felt very guilty at the moment. If the other party refused to give in, then he would have no choice but to fight hard. Many places are very easy to defeat, but can you hold them? Especially in such a vast territory as the Western Region.

Li Xiang threw away the tableware in his hand as he spoke. The soldiers behind him were already ready. If the two countries are not at war, we will fight after we return.

"Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to get out of here?"

Abalasha didn't know what to say when she heard the words of the Western Turk Khan. Since Li Xiang rushed here, he must have been fully prepared. If you say such words, it is a provocation.

"Then aren't you afraid that the people in General Kang Ying's hands won't come back? Or maybe he has become my people. How many troops do you have in your hands? How many troops does he have in his hands? What is my identity? Clearly, if I cannot get out of here, you may be even more miserable than Xue Yantuo Khan. I am the heir of the Tang Dynasty. If something happens to me here, where can you escape to?"

Li Xiang said with disdain. When Li Xiang spoke, he suddenly slapped the table in front of him, and then a leg of lamb flew out. This leg of lamb hit the Western Turk Khan in the back without any bias. In the seat, the bone of the mutton leg was halfway in. This kind of strength is not something ordinary people can have.

After the guards around him saw it, they all took out their weapons. There were not many people on Li Xiang's side, so if there was a fight, Li Xiang would definitely suffer. But at this moment, Li Xiang's face There was no panic. Just as he said, does the Western Turk Khan really have the courage?

"You bastards, whoever let you in, get out immediately."

Abalasha knew that the Khan of Western Turks would not break with Li Xiang, so when these people came out, Abalasha cursed them all and quickly scolded them all out. Only these people inside , everyone is just talking, there will not be too serious consequences, but if you soldiers come in, it will be difficult to predict how to go next.

The Western Turkic Khan is also very satisfied with Abalasha's performance. With many people and mixed eyes, the Western Turkic Khan has to act tougher, otherwise one day word will spread that the Khan they believe in is a You weakling, how can you manage your own people?

"Since there is no use talking about it, let's just go to war. I won't embarrass you. After you go back, reorganize your army. We will fight it out on the battlefield. In the future, your power in the Tang Dynasty will never be defeated. Will come to the grassland."

The Western Turk Khan pretended to be calm and said, but this guy's little finger kept swinging back and forth, which happened to be seen by Li Xiang. Li Xiang knew that the other party was in a panic now. How powerful is your army? Li Xiang has already asked people to investigate clearly, not to mention that Abalasha is still an insider. If there is a fight, can you win?

"Farewell."

Li Xiang knew that the other party didn't have the courage, so he simply didn't say anything else and led his men towards the door. The Western Turk Khan was really panicking now. He had never taken the initiative. During the conversation, I was led away by Li Xiang, but I didn't expect that it would lead to this.

Abalasha also looked at Khan in horror. Khan could not stop Li Xiang by himself at this time, so he had to rely on Abalasha.

"Your Highness the Emperor's Grandson, please stay. Your Highness the Emperor's Grandson, please stay..."

After Abalasha saw the look in Khan's eyes, she immediately knew what to do. In the next period of time, the Western Turks Khan was just a puppet and could never say anything, but what Abalasha said here What he said represents what Khan said, he should bow his head and admit his mistakes and leave it to others. After all, he is just a prime minister, but I am a king.

"Master Xiangguo, do you have anything else to say?"

Li Xiang did not stop while talking, and all this was seen by the Western Turks Khan. This showed that they were not trying to scare him, but were already preparing to do this.

"Please stay, Your Highness Taisun. The war is a disaster for us Western Turks. We have just encountered a huge sandstorm attack. Our life is really not good now. Please take care of Your Highness Taisun..."

Abalasha's words were full of pleading...
