Chapter 886: Tubo's Ambition

PS: Thank you to the book friend Chao Fei Xibi, Tu Chengwei, and I also want to write and wait for the monthly pass support of friends.

Bang Saise's eyes were blazing, and he continued: "In addition, the Nibora country in the west, and the big country in the northwest, Zhangxiong, are the goals that our lord must conquer, only in this way can he be regarded as unifying the snowy plateau, and when the time comes, relying on the salt of Subi, the iron weapons of Zhangxiong, plus the warriors and war horses of our Tubo country, can we really go down the plateau and establish hegemony, and the world chaos in your Central Plains is only afraid that it will be over at that time." ”

A trace of disappointment flashed in Li Jing's eyes: "It's a pity, this time I originally took a fancy to the combat effectiveness of your Tubo cavalry, if you can borrow tens of thousands of our cavalry in troubled times, my lord will definitely give you enough rich rewards." ”

Bonsaise laughed: "Return? What in return? Although we need silk and bronze ware in the Central Plains, it is not necessary to do so, you have spent more than ten days in our Tubo, and we should also have an understanding of our living habits, the plateau is very clean, and there is no need to wash the dishes. ”

Li Jing nodded: "I know, what you want in Tubo is only land, my lord said that not an inch of land in the Central Plains can be given to people, even if it is a friend, but other lands can be discussed." ”

Bang Saiseze's eyes lit up, and he asked, "What do you mean, is it Tuyuhun?" ”

Li Jing smiled: "What does Brother Bang Sai think?" ”

Bang Saise laughed: "Isn't Tuyuhun now the county of your Sui Dynasty, why, General Wang is willing to give us the land of the Sui Dynasty to Tubo now?" ”

Li Jing said calmly: "That place is not the traditional territory of the Central Plains. Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty wanted to forcibly conquer for the sake of his own face. It's not realistic to hold on to it in the future. My lord said that Tuyuhun is the throat of the west of the river, and if you want to go down the plateau in the future, you will definitely capture Tuyuhun, who makes their strength weak, and the khan does not have enough ability? Rather than having a conflict with you Tubo here at that time, it is better to discuss it as early as possible, this Tuguhun land. It will be a buffer zone between your Tibet and our Central Plains. ”

Bang Saise shook his head with a smile: "General Li, I think you are a very interesting person, now you are not the emperor of the Sui Dynasty, and although we in Tubo do not unify the snowy plateau, after all, we already have a very good prospect, but you are here to talk to me about these territories seriously, it's a bit too funny." ”

Li Jing smiled: "If Brother Bang Sai thinks that our lord is not qualified to talk to you about this condition, he can also talk about these things with other Sui Dynasty people, or even the emperor of the Sui Dynasty." In fact, I think a smart person like you should be able to see the vision and mind of our lord, and now the entire Great Sui. He is the only one who realizes the importance of Tibet, to be honest. If he hadn't insisted that I come to Tibet this time, I wouldn't have known that Tibet was really so powerful. ”

Bang Saise put away his smile, groaned for a while, and said: "What you said is reasonable, just in the eyes of your lord, you do have the basic conditions for cooperating with our Tubo. But it's too early to say this, I also said just now, our family Zampu has no intention of going down the plateau and fighting for Tuyuhun at present, you are afraid that you will not be able to help, but if you are friends with our Tubo country and make more transactions in the future, then there is no problem, and the 30,000 cavalry will not give it to you. However, I can provide you with the war horses you need, I know that you have something to do with the Fulian Khan of Tuyuhun, mainly because they can raise war horses in the grassland of Tuyuhun, but I want to say that the war horses produced on our Tubo Plateau will only have stronger endurance than Qinghai horses. ”

A hint of disappointment flashed on Li Jing's face, and he smiled instead: "It's too early to say this, Brother Bangsai, in the process of unifying the snowy plateau, if you have a place where you can use us, you can just ask us, I think it will be better to strengthen the connection between our two families in the future and often send caravans to communicate with each other." ”

Bang Saise laughed: "General Li's words are me, and it is also our family's favorite Zanpu, your Dasui coins cannot be used on our snowy plateau, but if they are exchanged for gold coins used in transactions on the Silk Road, then we can trade with the Tianzhu Kingdom and the Nibora Kingdom in the south, and obtain the basic daily necessities we need, other things, we don't need." ”

A trace of doubt flashed in Li Jing's eyes: "Silk, cloth, silk, and brass utensils, don't you want them?" ”

Bang Saise said coldly: "General Li, we want to be true friends, please don't use the methods of your Han people to deal with the Turks to our Tibetans, these fine silks are not suitable for our nomadic life at all, we can't ride horses after wearing this, and those brass bowls, which have to be washed every day, will waste the most precious water resources of our Tibet, you must know that we in Tibet do not have the kind of big rivers in your Central Plains, in order to save water, even bathing is rare." We don't want these things that make the Tibetan people extravagant and degenerate, and lose their original simple and robust morality, and we don't want them at all, and I also ask General Li to tell your lord about this. ”

Li Jing sighed: "Brother Bang Sai misunderstood, we do business with the surrounding alien races, all of which are these things, not our family, since ancient times, the alien races in the Central Plains and the surrounding areas, especially the grassland nomads, have also carried out such transactions, it is not to say that it is corrupt and degenerate for you, it can only be said that it is interconnected." ”

Bang Saise sneered: "General Li doesn't need to explain much, the Central Plains flower world, the great rivers and mountains, can produce these things that we can't see on the grassland, these will make people comfortable and happy, lose their enterprising spirit, the reason why you Han people can always maintain a strong advantage over the nomads is that you can use this lifestyle change to make the nomads worship and envy the Han people psychologically, even if they are strong militarily, they still unconsciously regard themselves as the weak side, out of their own foundation on the grassland." We, the Tibetans, will not follow in the footsteps of those Xiongnu, Xianbei, and Turkic people. ”

Li Jing nodded: "I understand, and I will convey this meaning to the lord when I go back." ”

Bang Saise looked at Li Jing, his expression eased a lot, not as strict as just now, he suddenly laughed: "This time to deal with Tuyuhun, to create their monarchs and ministers to be separated, father and son cannibalism, is also your father-in-law's handiwork and plan." (To be continued......)
