Chapter 679: New Trends in Tibet
Just when Wu Yuanqing was full of peaceful evolution and pondered about occupying the world by relying on population immigration and cultural brainwashing integration, Li Chengqian pushed him: "What do you think, talk to you."
"Oh, what do you say? I just didn't hear clearly." Wu Yuanqing shook his head and shook the thoughts in his head aside.
"I said, the Tianzhu you are thinking about has now been remembered by Tubo, and the Tubo and Nibora coalition forces are fighting fiercely with the Jieri Dynasty." Li Chengqian repeated it again.
"I'll go, isn't it, it's really fake, Tubo has attacked Tianzhu?" Wu Yuanqing was surprised, because in his memory, it seemed that Tubo had never fought with Tianzhu, after all, there were high mountains in the middle, although there were mountain passes that could be passed, but after all, it was not suitable for large-scale marching.
It seems that the only time is because Wang Xuance sent Tianzhu to envoy, but in Zhongtianzhu was attacked, Wang Xuance fled to Tubo alone, and then borrowed troops from Tubo and Niboro, and then killed back to Zhongtianzhu, not only defeated the thieves of Zhongtianzhu, but also took the king back to Chang'an.
Well, that's right, it seems to be just this once, Wu Yuanqing thought.
"Of course it's true, why am I lying to you, Tubo is afraid of us, and the plateau is more than half of us, they don't dare to develop on our side, then they can only develop to the south. I heard that it was not the idea of the Tibetans to send troops this time. Didn't Tubo ask his father to marry the princess of the Tang Dynasty, but he was taught a hard lesson by us. Then suffered heavy losses, but also by the Tubo domestic many nobles blamed, in order to stabilize Tubo, later Songtsen Gampo married the Ni Bo of the ruler princess, Tubo and Ni Bo Luo together, these years Tubo main exchanges and trade are with the Ni Bore, I heard that Tubo built the capital or something is also invited Ni Bo craftsmen, so the two countries are very close, and then this time the Ni Bo and the Jieri Dynasty had a conflict, so they found Tubo, and then there was a Tubo and Ni Bora alliance to the Jieri Dynasty to go to war." Li Chengqian elaborated on the situation.
"Oh, I see, do you know how the battle is going on between the two sides?" Wu Yuanqing frowned and asked.
"How can we know this, we have secret agents in Tibet, but this kind of war is only known to the upper echelons of Tibet, even if our secret agents inquire, it is difficult for spies to reach the core. Again, the two sides have not been fighting for a long time, the strength of the Tibetans is not weak, and the mud Bora is also quite brave, and the strength of the Jieri Dynasty on the other side is not bad at all, I estimate that the victory and defeat are in half, and the result will not come out for a while and a half." Li Chengqian shook his head and said.
Wu Yuanqing also felt justified when he heard it, and couldn't help but nodded, some people may think that Wang Xuance can borrow 10,000 troops from Tubo and Nibora to kill back Zhongtianzhu and arrest the human king, so how strong can this Tianzhu be?
To think so, it is not to understand the specific situation.
In history, Wang Xuance went to the Western Regions and then robbed his goods and found Tubo to borrow troops to destroy a country by himself, which was in 648.
It is now the seventeenth year of Zhenguan in 643, and there is a difference of five years in between, and these five years can undergo earth-shaking changes.
Because of the current Tianzhu, the eldest king of the Jieri Dynasty is still alive and well, and in 648, the king of the Jieri has been dead for a year and drowned in the Ganges.
After the death of the king of Jieri, the Jieri Dynasty collapsed, and there were a lot of rebel forces in Tianzhu, and there were more rebels than the anti-king in the last years of the Sui Dynasty.
The Ring Sun Dynasty is over, and the whole Tianzhu doesn't know how many small forces exist, which is also the reason why Wang Xuance's envoy group will be robbed, because a group of rebels against small forces, they know what kind of existence Datang is, and it is estimated that they have never heard of the prestige of Datang, but it turned out that Wang Xuance brought a lot of treasure gold and silver, and he was greedy and greedy, so he robbed it.
As a result, he didn't expect Wang Xuance to be so fierce, not only escaped, but also dared to borrow troops to kill and come back, and then wiped out the small country that robbed things, and the king also captured Chang'an.
But that was when the King of the Ring of the Sun died and the Ring of the Sun Dynasty collapsed, but now, the King of the Ring of the Sun is still alive, and the Ring of the Sun Dynasty is still the strongest strength of Tianzhu.
The king of the sun has built a huge army, divided into three arms: elephants, horses, and infantry, and the power alone is huge, looking at the elephant army of the people under the capital as many as six to one hundred thousand.
There are so many elephants alone, and there are even more people who serve elephants, and a simple calculation is that there are about 200,000 elephant troops alone.
These 200,000 people are still trivial, the key is the elephant, what kind of scene is 100,000 elephants running wild, scared to death.
Just a few, dozens of elephants are not simple. At this time, any class of elephant can be crushed like a bulldozer or a tank.
However, although the elephant army is huge, but there are also many restrictions, which should be placed in the vast and wooded plain forest terrain of Tianzhu, the power of the elephant army is huge, but if it goes to the mountainous place in the north of Tianzhu, it will not work, if it is placed in the place bordering Tubo, Nibora and the Jieri Dynasty, the elephant army is completely useless.
Of course, even if it is put in the Tang Dynasty, this elephant army is also a fart, so the army of the king of the sun can also be majestic in Tianzhu.
The army under the King of the Ring is strong, but he did not build Tianzhu into a centralized country, of course, there is no real centralized power in the history of Tianzhu, sometimes it is quite similar, but in fact it is still another nation, just like the current Ring Sun Dynasty looks very strong, but it is only half of the north of the ruling Tianzhu, and before the real rule of Tianzhu was the Persians, it was the Sassanid Dynasty.
That is, now that the Sassanid Empire has declined, and the country is about to be destroyed by the Arab Empire, this has allowed the King of the Ring of the Sun to integrate the north of Tianzhu in the past ten years.
But it was really integration, not centralization, because he didn't have actual unification, and quite a lot of the original small countries just couldn't bear the army of the Ring of the Sun King, so they recognized the suzerainty of the Ring of the Sun Dynasty.
The Ringing Sun Dynasty was a loose alliance of force. The kingdoms of Sata Devara, Kanaj, Magadha, and Kajusa were under its direct control. The remaining thirty or so kingdoms each had its own monarch, army, bureaucracy and legal system. They simply submit to the might of the King of the Sun, recognize his supremacy, and pay tribute to him.
Therefore, this is also the reason why when the king of the day died and the dynasty collapsed, and there were rebellions in various places, because people were unwilling, they couldn't do it before, but now that the king of the sun is dead, he is naturally unwilling to be a grandson anymore.
This is also the reason why Wu Yuanqing agrees with Li Chengqian's statement that the Jieri Dynasty and Tubo, the Nibora coalition army will win and lose in half and will not be able to produce results for a while.
To calculate, it must be that the territory ruled by the king of the ring is large, and then the population is larger, but he is not united, and although the territory of Tibet and Nibora does not seem to be so large, the population is not as good, but these two are centralized countries, especially Tibet.
Therefore, it is difficult to distinguish between half and half wins and losses.
