In a war that is already doomed, what variables will arise from one's own accession? Liu Ji is not a prophet, but he believes that it will get better.

As the youngest of this group, he saw all kinds of expressions in other people's eyes, most of them were just because of Feng Changqing, he showed politeness, no one expected a guy known for brute strength to really say anything.

The only exception may be Yang Pre.

Before speaking, Liu Ji made them stand in a big circle, and he himself stood in the middle of the circle, of course, not to play any game in the future.

He took the stick, which had a leg of lamb roasted at the end, and drew a circular symbol on the dirt floor.

"If this is the capital of the Tibetans, let's do it." Mark a place name on the side with a pointed tip, and then draw a bowl-shaped circle: "The territory of the Tubo people is about like this." ”

In the fifties of the eighth century AD, the Tubo Kingdom ruled over an area that roughly included the Xiqiang Autonomous Region, the edge of Sichuan and Yunnan provinces, and most of the Qing Province.

When they found out that he was drawing a map, everyone looked at each other a little, even Feng Changqing himself did not expect it, and what was even more surprising was that the graphics drawn by Liu Ji were not like the shape they saw at all, but paid more attention to proportion.

"Here is the big and small Bolu, below is Tianzhu, above is the green mountains, and between the Tubo mainland, blocked by the mountains, bypassing these mountains, you can reach Yangtong, Nibora and other places, not far from their capital."

"Look at it here, Kunlun Mountain, stretching for more than 5,000 miles, separating our Anxi from Tubo, they will occasionally attack from the mountains and mountains, attacking the surrounding areas of Khotan, sowing immortals, and the end of the land are like this, looking closer, the threat is greater?"

Under his description, it is easy to come to such a conclusion, especially the Khotanese envoy Yang and his son, who listened very carefully, because that was his territory.

"First, due to the limitations of the terrain, it is not easy to climb over these mountains, the Tubo people cannot gather a large army, and small-scale attacks are easy to be broken, so they will mainly incite the locals."

In fact, Boxian Town, which has been moved by the Tubo people many times, has always been an extremely unstable area.

"The second is that the Tibetan people have been born in a cold land since they were young, and they are not used to the hot climate, and in such places, if they take off their robes, they will not even be able to walk."

Liu Ji's words aroused a burst of laughter, and even Feng Changqing's heart moved, because he saw that Liu Ji had already drawn in another direction.

"Go to the east of Khotan, that is, Gua, Sha, Su, Gan, Liang and other prefectures, which are under the jurisdiction of my envoy to the west of the Hexi, and then go over, it is the Shan, Lan, He, and Min prefectures under the jurisdiction of the envoy of the Longyou Jiedu, and to the south, it is led by the Jiannan and Sichuan West Jiedu, and these places are all adjacent to Tubo, and all of them are the front of the enemy."

"Then the question is, when my Anxi military horses gather here, what are they doing in the rest of the towns?"

Liu Ji clapped his hands and stood up, looking at the pattern he had drawn, although strictly speaking, it could only be regarded as a schematic diagram, but it was enough to shock these guys who didn't even recognize the words.

Feng Changqing looked at the rough map with a calm face, but he was shocked in his heart, he couldn't imagine how this kid came to this conclusion, because, in the entire Anxi Town, except for a limited number of people, no one knew the truth of the matter.

Among the people present, he is the only one who knows, how did Liu Ji know? Feng Changqing didn't believe it, it could be his own guess, and he didn't believe it, it was when he went to Da Bolu to spy on something, the Tubo people revealed.

Now is not the time to explore, he called Duan Xiushi's words, and instructed: "Chenggong, let your people, expand this picture, today, let's just come to see Wulang, the next thing, and we'll talk about it later." ”

Duan Xiushi respectfully responded, and when he went out, he exchanged glances with Li Siye, the matter was not simple, but he was afraid that it had something to do with the big protector in Qiuzi City.

In the official residence in the city of He Bolao, Xi Dongzan changed his clothes and sat opposite Shang Jiezan, who came to visit, although the two were not from the same family, they both belonged to the upper class, and the intersection was not shallow.

"Dazarugon can't come, he asked me to talk to you, be careful, the Tang people are not so easy to deal with."

"What?"

After Shang Jiezan sat down, the first thing he said made him almost lose his temper.

"Is it the wrong Wen Bo over there?"

"Hmm." Shang Jiezan glanced at the Bolu girl who was busy in the room with his peripheral vision, and lowered his voice: "The Tang people's movements are very big, Ge Shuhan has already uprooted our three fortresses, half of the pasture has been lost, and the rest is difficult to last, it seems that they will still march into the army." ”

The action is so big? Xi Dongzan silently picked up a cup of butter tea, the familiar taste made him suppress his uneasiness a little, and began to analyze the pros and cons of it.

Cuowenbo is the Qiang language, Chinese is the meaning of 'Qinghai', later generations of China, this area was divided into a separate Qinghai Province, and Qinghai, because of the environmental protection, has become a beautiful tourist resort, attracting a large number of tourists every year to sightsee.

At this time, the surrounding area of Qinghai is a good pasture with abundant water and grass, and the Tang people are pressing step by step, once the entire lake area is lost, not only will they lose a pasture, but more importantly, the salt production area.

Qinghai is a saltwater lake.

Obviously, the situation over there is much more severe, and the importance is even more incomparable, every time the Tang people attack, there are more than 100,000 troops, and the Tubo also have to meet the army with the whole country, even if it has won many big victories.

"There is news from Nanzhao that the envoys of the Tang people's Jiannan Jie are also constantly recruiting troops, but I am afraid that they will attack soon."

"How dare they come? Didn't we lose more than 100,000 people last year? ”

Hearing his words, Shang Jiezan glanced at him with idiot eyes, and said unhurriedly: "They all say that you are a smart person, how could you say such stupid things." ”

"Tang Kingdom, like the stars in the sky, there are 10,000 people, all of us, plus cattle, sheep, and horses, are not as good as a fraction of them, how many 100,000 have they lost over the years? Which time did you back down. ”

Of course, Xi Dongzan understands this truth, but he is a little unwilling, and the huge gap in national strength means that the victory of the Tang people is a victory, and if they lose once, they will be greatly injured, which is why every time they are frustrated, they have to ask for a truce in the name of Princess Jincheng and draw an alliance.

However, thirteen years have passed since the princess died, and now there is no need for this excuse.

"Without Dazarugon's Praetorian Guard, you and I alone would not be able to defeat them."

In this regard, Shang Jiezan also agreed: "That's why I'm here to tell you, whether to change the plan, even if they occupy Bolu, it won't affect the overall situation, and the Tang people won't stay here for a long time." ”

"Not necessarily." Xi Dongzan shook his head: "If we leave like this, will the Tang people let go of the next place?" Where to retreat, Zhangxiong or Qiangtang? ”

There was a little more determination in his eyes: "The land of the Tubo people is our warriors, and they are exchanged for blood, even if they want to lose it, the Tang people must exchange their lives." ”

Shang Jiezan knew that he couldn't convince him, and he lost interest in speaking for a while, his eyes flickered, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
