Chapter 58: This Sincere Gift to the Guards and Soldiers to the Ancient Cities of Luo (I)

After Wang Xuance and the others entered the Potala Palace, they sat down as guests. Songtsen Gampo saw that they were also dusty and hungry, so he instructed his attendants to serve delicacies and delicacies, and let them put on a cushion for the time being.

After they were full of wine and food, Songtsen Gampo took the lead in asking: "Brother Xian came to my Luo Some City this time, it seems that there must be a way to rescue the brothers in distress and shame for our Tang Dynasty, why don't you come and listen?" ”

Hearing this, Wang Xuance then put what he thought in his heart and said: "At present, these five Indias, since the death of the king of the Ring Sun, although Aronashun usurped the throne and stood on his own, it seems to be monolithic on the surface; However, in the face of its concept of governing the country by suppressing Buddha and promoting Buddhism, many kings have been dissatisfied, and at the same time, it has also made it lose the hearts of the people!

And after he destroyed this catastrophe by force, and slaughtered this tea horse and Luo Cheng, although he was famous all over the world, although he was famous in five Indias; However, he did not cultivate benevolent government, did not know how to buy people's hearts, not only was arrogant, but also increased the proportion of tribute, which has made the people and the countries complain.

Therefore, at this time, the Five Indias were no longer as smooth as the government decrees during the reign of the King of the Sun. On the way to your country, we have received definite information that since this Alonasan usurped the throne and established himself, he has repeatedly recruited the king of Kumora in the East Indies, but his decrees are difficult to carry out in the countries of the East Indies.

In addition, it is known that this way has come by virtue of the news collected by us and other parties; Some of the kings of the five Indian kingdoms were ready to rebel against each other during these days. This is exactly what I mean: while its internal affairs are still unstable, I am willing to invite thousands of soldiers, on the one hand, to fight into this Qunu city, rescue the trapped brothers, capture this Alonashun alive, and sacrifice it to His Majesty the Emperor; On the other hand, I wish Almita the supreme wealth to celebrate the princess's birthday and enrich the treasury of the Tibetan Mansion! ”

Hearing about Wang Xuance's grand ambitions, Songtsan Gampo and Princess Wencheng met each other, although they were very happy, but they looked at each other. Because they know that it is true that Wang Xuance is very good at what he said.

Although these five India are connected to the mountains and rivers of Tibet, they are not as close as the Tang Dynasty after all. If you lead your troops out of the mud Borneo country from the snowy plateau and take advantage of the situation, you will definitely be able to wipe out the five small countries of India in one fell swoop. Because it has always been of different roots and the same origin, and the well water does not interfere with the river water, Songtsen Gampo has never had the idea of sending troops to five Indias.

If we win today, we can make the Tibetan State prestige of five Indias; On the other hand, he is in Li Shimin, and he is naturally a step higher in front of Princess Wencheng. If it fails, there is nothing to worry about with the many small countries of these five Indias. Moreover, in the territory of Tibet, the climate is harsh, and it is difficult for the soldiers of the five Indians to adapt. At the same time, many famous mountains in the territory of Tibet are holy places of Brahmanism, so they naturally do not dare to raise troops to invade.

In his heart, after weighing the pros and cons, Songtsen Gampo deeply felt that there was no reason why he should not inherit this matter of borrowing troops. But at this time, this Songtsen Gampo is really unspeakable!

As an envoy of the mother country, when he was on an envoy to a foreign country, he was robbed of his property and forcibly kidnapped, and this kind of humiliation was naturally inclined to send troops to help Princess Wencheng, who regarded the comfort and honor of the Tang Dynasty above all else. However, at this moment, she is also well aware of the difficulties of Songtsen Gampo......

Since Wang Xuance entered the Potala Palace, he has already felt the general feeling of this family. In addition, when he saw that Princess Wencheng, an old friend who had been with him for many years, was living such a good life, he was already quite satisfied.

When he observed Princess Wencheng and Songtsen Gampo, both had a difficult face. It seems that he has vaguely sensed something, so he is unwilling to let them, a couple who respect each other, live forever. Let Princess Wencheng be difficult, and let Songtsan Ganbu not wipe face!

Therefore, after a pause, he spoke: "This is just the idea of Xuan Ce and his brothers for a while, just to say that, if you are like Zanbu, you also need to use troops to protect the country and the people in the face of the domestic political situation, so you don't have to care!" ”

At this time, if he couldn't borrow soldiers, Wang Xuance had already decided to lift the three-foot long sword, and with the three of them, he returned to the five Indias alone, taking advantage of the gap between the five Indian countries to turn the five Indians upside down, rescue his brothers, and shame the Tang Dynasty!

However, when Songtsen Gampo heard Wang Xuance's words, he immediately looked at Princess Wencheng affectionately, sighed, and then turned his head and said: "Brother Xian, you are too worried, in the face of this shame and humiliation of Brother Xian, how can you not help Brother Xian come out." If so, wouldn't it be a joke when this gets out. Besides, my Tubo country has been attached to the Tang Dynasty for many years, and since the princess married into my Tubo, this king has sworn that Tubo and the Tang Dynasty will live and die together and never be separated. Although I have 100,000 armor in the Tibetan country, I can only mobilize 50,000 mobile troops, but today I am also a clever woman who has no rice to cook, and there are really no soldiers to adjust! Because these 50,000 elite soldiers have already supported our Datang two months ago. As he spoke, he sighed helplessly and hung his head......

"What Zambu said, every sentence is true" Princess Wencheng was also helplessly playing the round on the side......

It was only at this time that Wang Xuance and the four of them understood everything. It turned out that Wang Xuance and others set out from Chang'an in May of the twenty-first year of Zhenguan (647 AD) to envoy to the Western Regions. In the face of the Qiuzi country at both ends of this rat, Wang Xuance took advantage of the fact that the Western Turkic envoy Ashina Lisheng secretly robbed the Tang Dynasty of property, and surrounded and punished these treacherous people.

Later, he and the Prime Minister Nari visited the royal palace late at night and visited the king Bai Suva. After he figured out the ins and outs of the matter, and weighed the pros and cons, Bai Suvadi not only concluded a friendly treaty with Datang on the spot, but also sent envoys to Datang. When the envoy arrived in Chang'an, Li Shimin was also quite happy to hear that he had come for the friendship between the two countries. Therefore, he gave a lot of gifts to the country of Qiuzi.

However, with the long reign of Bai Suva, and the death of frailty; In addition, over the years, he has often been unable to do his best, so many state affairs have fallen on his younger brother Ha Libu. The problem is here, this person's wolf ambition, more than three months after Wang Xuance and others left, he took advantage of Bai Suvadie's illness again, killed him, and usurped the throne and stood on his own.

Li Shimin didn't care too much about this foreign state affairs at the beginning, and he didn't want to interfere, his original intention is: No matter who succeeds to the throne, as long as he is dedicated to my Tang Dynasty.

I never thought that after Khalib lost his succession to the throne, he was insatiable, and in order to enrich the treasury, he squandered it for himself; Not only did he not come to Chang'an to worship on time, but he also cut off the trade routes in the Western Regions, increased heavy taxes, and at the same time sent troops to attack Yanqi because of some trivial matters. After Li Shimin's many warnings were fruitless, he sent Ashina Sheer and Guo Xiaoke to lead his troops and horses to attack Qiuzi!

The editor said: This time, we will explain the historical problem of why Wang Xuance only borrowed 1,200 soldiers from Tubo, and why the borrowing of troops went so smoothly!
