"Why?"

Li Siye's tone is **, which contains more than one meaning.

is also a soldier, Liu Ji can understand his thinking, simple and direct, speak by strength, the strong are qualified to be merciful, the premise is to dominate everything.

Kantipur was defeated by the Tang people, and he should share the greatest benefits, but at the moment, Liu Ji put the mountain people in front, and what he was worried about was not only possible disputes in the future, but also his own military spirit.

Li Fei Yuanli is an unstable factor, his subordinates suffered the greatest losses in the war, if Liu Ji could not give a reasonable explanation, it is not advisable to rely only on the position to suppress them, because they are actually a lone army, the nearest main army, and there is also a Zhangxiong.

Liu Ji was well aware of his worries, mishandling, a victory, and the possibility that it would turn into a tragedy in the end, he picked up a silver cup, poured a purple liquid from a slender bottle, and handed it to Li Siye's hand.

"This is the wine of the Nibharats, made from wild fruits from the mountains, which quenches thirst and has some wine flavor, so you might as well taste it."

Li Siye took it and didn't look at it, he drank it in one sip, and it was indeed as he said, sweet and sour, the wine was not heavy, and it didn't suit his appetite.

"I'm not used to drinking, it's thousands of miles away from Bolu, and it's even farther away from Anxi, although we take it, we may garrison it for a long time?" Liu Ji poured himself a cup and took a sip.

"That's natural, Anzay can't get so far, it's too difficult to maintain."

"So the question is, we are working so hard just to run here and loot, and then pack and ship back the things we can grab? When we are gone, everything will return to normal, and the Tibetans will be able to re-establish their rule without much effort, and maybe, they will be grateful to us for changing their stubble, and they can choose an obedient puppet as they like. ”

Li Siye was silent, politics was not his forte, Liu Ji was not thinking about it with him, but he still understood the basic truth.

"What do you want?"

Liu Ji was waiting for his words, and said unhurriedly: "During the Zhenguan period, Li Weigong broke the Turkic king's tent with 3,000 people, ran thousands of miles, attacked his people and captured his Khan, and in one fell swoop collapsed the largest powerful neighbor in the north of my Tang Dynasty. ”

His words made Li Siye's heart fluctuate, and the cup in his hand trembled slightly, that was the most desirable achievement of a martial artist, how could he not know?

"Now, the envoy, with a crowd of 3,000, crossed more than ten countries, traveled thousands of miles, and won the most important subject countries of the Tubo people in one fell swoop, from the king to the prince, the minister, and the high-ranking officials, hundreds of heads were piled up there, from the queen, concubines, princesses, and thousands of family members were all arrested, and the land list, mountains and rivers were victorious, such a feat, how should the history books of later generations be fully described?"

"Do you only have those possessions in your eyes?"

At this time, Liu Ji was like a demagogic witch, but Li Siye couldn't feel disgusted, because every word of the other party spoke to his heart.

"If you can't get it, we have too few people, and without the support of Changxingfang, we can't walk such a long way by relying only on pack horses." He is an expert, how can he not know that the most important thing in long-distance marches and accidents is not property, but military food and socks.

"That's the problem, in the end, go back, each sergeant dies and brings a bag, what's the difference between it and a bandit?"

Liu Ji sighed and continued: "Bolu has been taken for our army, if the commander stops at the border of Zhangxiong, you and I will have no backup, so we will retreat, will you be willing?" ”

"What can you do if you are unwilling, with only 3,000 people, it is not easy to attack the city and there is no hope of defending the city, is it possible to be trapped here?"

Li Siye can imagine Feng Changqing's choice, the great merit is already in hand, seeking stability is the most rational way of thinking for a marshal, the land of Xiangxiong is the heart of the Tubo people, rashly marching into the army, it is likely to be frustrated, you must know that the so-called main army is less than 10,000 people, such a scale can not support a long-term war.

What's more, the longer the battle line is stretched, the greater the pressure on logistics, and for the Anxi Tang Army, the land of Bolu is already the limit of the expedition.

Both of them knew that from the very beginning, Feng Changqing didn't have much hope for Li Bu's partial division, and in his mind, the biggest role they could play was just to cause some chaos in the rear of the Tubo people.

But Liu Ji didn't think so.

It is written very clearly in the history books that Feng Changqing did not enter Zhangxiong, and there is no way to guess what the reason is, but as long as there is no news from Li Siye's department, it is impossible for them to return immediately, this is Liu Ji's plan.

Let a war that has been doomed to no result enter his influence, and how big a wave a small butterfly wing can set off depends on how far it can be done now.

At least, Li Siye has already been tempted.

"Envoy, most of my Anxi is stationed on the side of Zhangxiong, even if the Tubo people still have some spare strength, they will also pay attention to that side, at least in the short term, there will not be much danger, and this is the opportunity for you and me."

"Will the plan be released?" Unconsciously, Li Siye had entered his mode of thinking.

"Just now the envoy said, we only have 3,000 people, so don't think so, do you know how many people are inside and outside the city of Kantipur?"

Li Siye shook his head, he only knew a lot, but how many specifics, how could he know.

"There are 80,000 inhabitants in the city, and there are no less than 300,000 in the nearby valley." Liu Ji patted the booklet on the table, this is only the number that has been translated, and the entire country of Nepal is afraid that there are at least 500,000 people.

"So what, we're their enemies."

"Then it depends on how you say it." Liu Ji had a confident expression: "It was the mountain people who rebelled, and it was the Tubo people who suppressed them, we just had a good meeting, and the Tang Dynasty and the Nibharats had no old grudges, but had a good friendship." ”

"Before we arrived, the Tubo people garrisoned less than 500 troops in this city, and there would be no more than 1,000 people in all parts of the country, so that there were 3,000 people in the king's hands.

Li Siye's eyes widened when he heard this, although he was straight and not stupid, Liu Ji said it here, what else did he not understand.

The so-called friendship refers to Wang Xuance back then, alone, with only a scepter and a seal, he lent 5,000 soldiers and horses from here to quell the rebellion of Tianzhu in one fell swoop, compared to this legendary figure, the resources in his hands are not much better.

It's just that as a pure martial artist, such a strategy is far beyond his brain, and looking at this familiar stranger, his eyes have unconsciously become a little complicated.

Gorou, what do you want to do with such a lot of thought?
