Chapter 1021: It's hard to ride a tiger

When he was in the prime of life, when his father was Zampu, he was already able to stand alone and command the campaign. In the past, he was always invincible, like the cloak he wears, sewn together with the skins of mountain tigers, snow leopards and steppe wolves, which represent his martial prowess.

But now, under this great mountain of Africa, he is helpless.

There was a tiger on that mountain, a fierce tiger Luo Siye.

But he didn't have a way to fight the tiger.

Only one of the envoys sent to Chang'an returned, and Gardongben was also detained, and it is said that they were all sent to the mountains to burn charcoal as slaves.

He was angry, but he was helpless.

In the face of Daqin's response, he looked very powerless.

Whether he wants to attack strongly or make peace, but he fights and pulls, the Qin Dynasty is indifferent and looks like he will fight to the end.

Now, it is difficult to ride a tiger.

Sitting on the tiger skin mattress, he wished that the mattress under him could be Luo Siye's at this time.

He remembered a hunting trip when he was young, he squatted in a snowy mountain glacier and wanted to hunt a deer, but he was waiting for not the beautiful deer, but the dangerous snow leopard.

That time, he almost died.

Gardonzan came, he was the nephew of Gardongben who was detained on an envoy to Chang'an, and he was an excellent young son of their family. Dongzan is now his bodyguard, in charge of heralding.

The young man had some red and swollen eyes, and he had secretly wept for his uncle.

"Dongzan, don't worry, your uncle will come back sooner or later."

Gardonzan was worried.

He was not optimistic about the current situation, and he had already discovered Zampu's predicament.

"Zanpu, I heard that the Qin army has defeated the Western Turks, and the Tuyuhun people are definitely not the opponents of the Qin people, there is no point in us continuing to stay here, the Qin people have refused to negotiate peace with their relatives, they will fight to the end."

"How could I not know."

"Dongzan, what do you think I'm going to do now?"

Gardonzan straightened his waist, bit his lip, he clenched his fists, and praised Nangri, "The Western Turks have withdrawn to the Western Regions, Tuyuhun is by no means an opponent of the Qin army, and we are now blocked here, the morale of the army is insufficient, the sky has turned cold, it is about to snow, and the livestock, cattle and sheep of our army have also been exhausted, if this continues, when the Qin army is killed, we will be in danger." Our judgment of the Qin people this time is wrong, and we also overestimate the Western Turks and Tuyuhun people, this time we missed, but only lost some money, grain, livestock, and sacrificed some Qiang people, as long as we retreat in time, it is not too late. ”

He looked at the young nobleman and was amazed by what he had said. It's just that he, as Zampu, retreated in such a vain, but it was not easy.

Not to mention such a retreat, it will make him lose face and his prestige will be greatly reduced.

The most important thing is that they have already angered the tiger of the Qin people, and now they are leaving like this, how can it be so easy. There is another one, such a retreat, that is, defeat, Zhuqiang has suffered a lot of losses this time, lost a lot of men and horses, and has not gained anything, such a retreat, I am afraid that Zhuqiang will fall to the Qin people in the future.

This is also an unacceptable fact for the praise of the Sun.

Tuyuhun failed to take it, but instead wanted to push the already attached Zhuqiang to the side of the Qin people, how could this work.

Nang Ri Lunzan hopes to have a decent withdrawal of troops, and if he can reach a peace with the Qin people, then he can give an explanation to all parties.

But now, the damned Qin people don't give any face.

"Why can't the Qin people even give up a woman, I don't want their princess, I just want a Qin woman with the title of princess, why don't they just refuse? Even if he Luo Cheng casually seals a palace maid as a princess and sends it, I will withdraw my troops immediately. ”

I don't understand why this is happening.

He's put the conditions even lower.

It's just that he didn't expect that the Qin people would never compromise on his extortion in the face of him.

"Zampu, many nobles are already very dissatisfied with the current situation." Gardonzan had to remind him.

Although Tubo has been continuously promoting reforms since the time of his father's praise of Dari Nianzan, the purpose is to strengthen the strength of Zampu.

But until now, despite rapid expansion and the emergence of a new aristocratic force more loyal to Zampu, Tibet has maintained its traditional alliance and parliamentary system.

Although the new system has now begun to be implemented in Tibet, and the country is divided into five ru, there are still eighteen noble estates, which are not under the management of the officials of each Ru.

Not to mention, the alliance of various tribes, once a year, the alliance convenes a tribal council to discuss major affairs. These are all restrictions and seizures of Zampu's power.

The nobles were dissatisfied with the dispatch of 30 Dongdai and the recruitment of 70,000 Zhuqiang soldiers, but the result was in vain, and they did not grab any land and property, and they were already dissatisfied.

When he led everyone to win the battle, everyone naturally praised him and supported him, but once the situation was unfavorable, these nobles had their own thoughts.

Especially these nobles who commanded the troops on the front line did not want their soldiers and horses to be lost here.

"Someone is contacting the nobles and wants to convene a council to vote on the withdrawal of troops."

The anger of the Sac Sun Praise rose.

"Attack or retreat, this is the power I have!"

"But they say that according to our Tibetan tradition, Zampu has the power to preside over the alliance, but the results of the council on the alliance must also be recognized."

Both father and son hoped to emulate the Central Plains and establish Tibet as a feudal and centralized central kingdom, rather than the era of tribal alliances and states.

But the strength of the old aristocracy was still strong.

"Zampu, now that the army's morale is unstable, it is better to withdraw the troops and go back first."

Gardonzan advised Zampu not to quarrel with the nobles at this time.

"Dongzan, do you also want to withdraw your troops? If we retreat like this, it will be defeated, and the Qin people will look down on us even more in the future, and even after we retreat, they may pursue the invasion deeply. He voiced his concerns.

"Perhaps, but if we don't withdraw, the biggest possibility is that we will be defeated here." Gardonzan said directly.

The praise of the day is like a numbness.

If you want to attack, you can't attack, and you can't slander it.

The Qin people are a hard bone that can't be used with oil and salt, and they have no way to start.

At this time, the nobles still have to pull their hind legs, and even hope to convene a noble council on this battlefield, isn't this bullshit, these damn old nobles, sooner or later, he will trample them under their feet one by one and take away the privileges they have had for generations.

"Dongzan, you go and tell the nobles who want to leave, and say that Benzanpu is as they wish."

"Prepare to withdraw!"
