"Oh?" Li Shimin's eyes lit up: "If you have a plan, say it quickly." ”

Chen Fei organized his language and spoke unhurriedly.

"Your Majesty, the grass people dare to assert that our army will inevitably start a war with Tibet in the next year."

"Huh?" Li Shimin frowned deeply: "How can you say it?" ”

Chen Fei smiled slightly, pretending to be profound.

Of course, he would not be stupid to tell Li Shimin, this is recorded in the textbook more than a thousand years later, you beat Songtsen Gampo and fled back to the plateau, and finally married the princess.

"This... Dare to ask Your Majesty what you know about Tibet? ”

Li Shimin nodded, and shook his head again: "I don't know much, although Tubo is close to my Tang Dynasty, but it is located on the plateau, and the tribes have been scattered and ununified for hundreds of years, and there is almost no contact with my Central Plains Dynasty. ”

Chen Fei nodded, what Li Shimin said was almost as he expected.

Not to mention Li Shimin, more than 1,000 years later, people still think that Tibet has a veil of mystery.

"The grass people know something about Tibet, and they can serve as a reference for Your Majesty."

"Huh? Do you know anything about Tibet? It's weird, have you been to Tibet? ”

Not to mention, Chen Fei has really traveled to Tibet and has the most direct feelings about Tibet.

"Your Majesty can be a grass farmer who has been to Tibet, uh... First of all, Tubo is located on the plateau, the climate is very harsh, the air is thin, if I go to Tubo in the Tang Dynasty, there will be altitude sickness, light chest tightness, breathless, severe direct coma and fainting until death......"

"Wait." Li Shimin interrupted what Chen Fei said, frowned, touched his beard and said, "Altitude sickness? What does this mean? ”

Chen Fei had no choice but to patiently explain: "It's because the air is thin and the human body is not adaptable... Forehead... Your Majesty, let me tell you this, when you arrive at the Tibetan Plateau, you will find that someone seems to have pressed a stone on your chest, and you will be so breathless. If you are adaptable, it will be fine, and you will be fine soon, but if you can't adapt to the environment here, you may die in serious cases. ”

"Oh?" Li Shimin was slightly moved, "Feng Deyao went to Tubo, and after coming back, he did mention that staying in Tubo would make him feel chest tightness, but it doesn't seem to be as exaggerated as you said." ”

Most of the time, this Feng Deyao has a good physique and quickly adapts to the climate of Tibet.

"Your Majesty, the altitude sickness I just mentioned varies from person to person, some people are fine, some people can't adapt at all, I don't believe Your Majesty can ask the envoys who went to Tibet with you, are there any serious injuries or deaths? And what is the reason. ”

Li Shimin's face was solemn, and he called the eunuch who was waiting outside the house and asked him to go to Feng Deyao to verify what Chen Fei said.

The eunuch left in a hurry, and Li Shimin said: "Go on, what you said just now has a plan to help me solve the problem, I don't know what the plan is." ”

Chen Fei licked his dry lips and said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, and listen to me slowly." Just now we talked about altitude sickness, if the two countries start a war in the Tibetan region, our army is not familiar with their climate and environment, it is easy to suffer a big loss, so the grass people implore Your Majesty. ”

"What?"

"Please Your Majesty select an elite army and secretly go to Tibet to adapt to the environment there in advance to prepare for future wars."

"Huh? Little baby, are you so sure that our two countries will fight? ”

Chen Fei said firmly: "I'm sure, and I'm afraid the day is not far away, the so-called one mountain does not tolerate two tigers, Tubo is now arrogant and arrogant, and will inevitably set its sights on neighboring countries with fertile soil, so, Your Majesty, the matter of courting relatives is likely to become the cause of the war between the two armies." ”

Chen Fei remembered that the Tang Dynasty and Tubo fought because of their courtship, but he couldn't remember exactly what time it was.

But now that Tubo has come to ask for marriage, looking at Li Shimin's tough attitude, most of them are not far from the time of the firefight.

What Chen Fei can do is to know history in advance and do his best to remind Li Shimin.

As for whether he admonishes or not... This is not what Chen Fei should care about, he just needs to do what he can do.

"One mountain can't tolerate two tigers? This sentence is incisive. Li Shimin pondered for a while, and said slowly: "What you said is also reasonable, but this matter is very important, I can't make a conclusion because of your remarks, and I need to discuss it with the ministers... By the way, how to select an elite army you just said to infiltrate the territory of Tibet? ”

Chen Fei smiled faintly: "It's very simple, disguise this army as a caravan, hide all the weapons in the goods, and then adapt to the environment of Tubo while understanding the military and civilian customs of Tubo. And..."

Speaking of this, Chen Fei smiled sympathetically: "If there is really a war, Your Majesty will stick a sharp knife into his back in advance, do you say that Songtsen Gampo is uncomfortable?" ”

"Shhh Li Shimin's eyes widened and he stared at Chen Fei incredulously. "This law... Wonderful! It's not just Tubo, I'm Xue Yantuo in the north of the Tang Dynasty......"

You can also use this method. Moreover, Xue Yantuo in the north and Tibet in the west are mainly nomadic, and they have almost no farmland and no fixed grain output. So if only we could send troops to harass their country from time to time and plunder their cattle and sheep...... Hehe. ”

Chen Fei did not continue, believing that with Li Shimin's wisdom, he should be able to understand what he meant.

"You mean to say that we are going to plunder the cattle and sheep of their country? In this way, what is the difference between my Datang and their barbarians? Li Shimin seemed to be a little disdainful of Chen Fei's approach, and his tone was also a little displeased.

As if he had expected Li Shimin's reaction, Chen Fei took a sip of water and said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty's words are wrong, the so-called non-our race will have different hearts, and we must not be soft on foreign races, otherwise we may suffer a big loss if we are not careful." Besides, why can't we just treat others the way we do? ”

"Treat others the way they do?" Li Shimin's eyes lit up, and he praised with a smile: "Incisive! Incisive! The little baby gave birth to a sharp mouth, and I was really moved by you. ”

Chen Fei continued to bewitch: "Your Majesty, please think about it carefully, the farmland can be reclaimed if it is destroyed, as long as there is wheat planted, next year will be another bumper harvest year, but what if the cattle and sheep are taken captive?" What are they going to do next year? So ......."

"So you're trying to cut off their food through this kind of shady, right? But Chen Fei, don't think about things too simply, if Xue Yantuo in the north is in a hurry, and the whole country is raised to attack my Tang Dynasty, how should I deal with it at that time? I'm not afraid of them, but my people can't afford to fight for years. Li Shimin frowned and reminded Chen Fei.

Chen Fei thought about it and made sense, he couldn't do things too desperately, otherwise it would be counterproductive, so he smacked his mouth and didn't mention it again.

Although Chen Fei's attention was not feasible, Li Shimin still looked at him a few times.

A fifteen-year-old baby who is weak enough to have this insight, and then look at Li Shimin when he was fifteen years old... Li Shimin suddenly felt his old face flush.

"Although the method of looting you mentioned is not feasible, but the dispatch of an elite soldier as mentioned earlier... Hehe, this one is useful. ”

Suddenly, Li Shimin's face changed and he slapped his thigh hard!

"No, what I asked you about the matter of Tubo's courtship, how did you get involved in the war?"
