Chapter 0737. Unexpected rescue
Tubo has hundreds of thousands of troops, the first battle of Dafeichuan, Tubo even sent an army to 400,000, defeated Xue Rengui, but the problem is that most of the troops are scattered in the hands of local nobles such as the lord of Dongdai and the lord of Ru, the power of Tubo is very feudal, Zampu is the largest lord, but the big family under his command still has his own retainers, the army loyal to him, layer by layer of loyalty, sometimes, Zampu can not order his subordinates.

If it was okay in normal times, now in order to seize power from the Gar family of Lu Dongzan, Mangsong Mangzan and his wife abandoned the Fujian State, suppressed a large number of generals in the army, and made the dynasty full of wind and rain, and the grain and grass were cut off.
Just when Mangsong Mangzan thought that the sky was falling, the servants outside hurriedly ran over, and he knelt on the ground without caring about etiquette, crying and shouting with a sad face: "Zanpu, the big thing is not good, the families in the city don't know how, and they have gathered at the gate of the palace again!"
"What?"
Jumping up in shock, Mangsong Mangzan went straight to the window, and as far as he could see, hundreds of torches gathered in the narrow alleys of Lhasa City, like fire dragons.
"Someone, send an order to the forbidden army of the Potala Palace, bring back these chaotic ministers and thieves, and kill those who do not follow!"
"Zampu, that's enough!"
Just when Mangsong Mangzan was crazy like a gambler who had lost a bet, shouting and killing with red eyes, a pair of delicate hands grabbed his wrist violently, looking at Mangsong Mangzan's shocked eyes, Chi Malen shook his head.
"Zanpu, if you confront the ministers, Tubo will be destroyed sooner or later, rather than this, it is better to have a showdown with the ministers, everyone find a way, maybe there is a way out, otherwise, the Tubo Kingdom that the first king Zanpu finally established will end the hundreds of years of vendetta in the Yalong River and destroy our hands."
"But."
"All suffering, the concubine is with you! Even if the ministers want to depose Zampu, the concubine will accompany you! β
Looking at Chimaren's clear eyes, Mangsong Mangzan's red eyes finally gradually cleared, his rapid breathing became smooth, and his undulating chest also returned to calm, after a while, it seemed that he had regained all of Zampu's manners, Mangsong Mangzan nodded heavily.
Along the cascading staircase, the Zamps walked down together with their hands.
This kung fu, the door of the Potala Palace has already turned into a pot of porridge.
"Why does Zampu want to make enemies with Fujian? That would make the Tibetans starving! β
"What's going on at the front, I want to see Zamp! Why hide it from the ministers? β
"Open the door, I'm the deputy prime minister, I have something important to ask to see Zampu!"
In the chaotic roar, regardless of the outside, the local Tubo aristocratic slave owners are knocking heavily on the heavy palace gate, Tubo is not like the Tang Dynasty, there is a complete and strict feudal system, and there is still a strong legacy of tribal alliances, so the chiefs and ministers of the various families in power are also justified in their dissatisfaction with Zampu.
But at this moment of excitement, a cold snort exploded behind everyone like a muffled thunder, listening to the familiar voice, everyone's backs stiffened, and they couldn't help but make way on both sides of the road.
A chubby, old figure walked slowly from behind the torch-lit crowd, and beside the old man, a young man held his arm.
Obviously, the old man has weakened to the point where he needs someone to support him, but no one dares to despise him, because this old man is Lu Dongzan!
Even if he was from an inferior family, this old man still assisted Xianzanpu, assessed as much as half of the land on the snowy plateau from the Yalong River to the Yarlung Zangbo River Basin, married Princess Wencheng, and made the exchanges between Tang and Tubo develop rapidly, and then got to know the King of Fujian, making Tubo prosperous and rich for almost ten years.
As soon as they saw Lu Dongzan, everyone was as if they had seen an outlet, and after a while, they surrounded them like children who complained, even if they once despised his background and hated the few old nobles with big surnames who were in power.
"Anyway, you can take care of it, Zampu hasn't met with the ministers for more than ten days, it's too unusual, how can there be such a Zampu from the first king to the present decades!"
"Yes, Zampu has even hidden the military aircraft on the front line from us ministers, isn't this a joke about the social affairs of Tubo?"
"Zampu insists on going his own way and wants to break off diplomatic relations with Fujian, which is to starve the people of Tibet! Has he forgotten how terrible the great famine was at the time of the plateau? Even the nobles can't get enough to eat."
Listening to the gossip, Lu Dongzan's wrinkled old face wrinkled his brows deeply, and after a while, he knocked down with a cane again.
"Enough!"
After a burst of applause, hundreds of high-ranking and powerful Tubo nobles were silent again, everyone looked at Lu Dongzan in surprise and awe, facing a pair of eyes, Lu Dongzan asked seriously: "Even if Zampu wants to start a war with Fujian, even if Zampu hides the front-line military aircraft, even if Zampu does not meet the minister for dozens of days, do you want to rebel?"
Rebellion is definitely a terrible curse in this day and age! Listening to Lu Dongzan's explosive drink, everyone was clever, and no one dared to take the next sentence.
One sentence calmed everyone, Lu Dongzan finally nodded with satisfaction, and waved his hand casually: "You and others go home, the old man asks to see Zampu for you!"
"But, big talk."
"Huh?"
There were still people who were unwilling, but listening to Lu Dongzan's questioning, the unwilling people had to hold back their words, and the ministers who couldn't leave no matter how Zampu got rid of them for many days actually dispersed like this.
Seeing a large group of Tibetan ministers completely disperse in a few steps, Lu Dongzan turned around with the support of Qinling, raised his hand and knocked heavily on the door of the Potala Palace, and after a while, the palace door that had not been opened for many days suddenly opened, revealing the suspicious Zanpu Mangsong Mangzan and Zanmeng Chimarun.
A few moments later, it was the hall where Zampu received ministers on weekdays, but this time the two of them who were sitting on the couch did not have the same calmness as the previous Bodhisattvas, and they were a little restrained and uneasy to the troubled children, but Lu Dongzan, who was sitting on the chair, was like a steady teacher.
Before Lu Dongzan, Tubo has always been the four surnames in charge of the world, but after Lu Dongzan, some of the former small family nobles also emerged, once only one hand to cover the sky without Lu, Niang, Nen, Wei and other big surnames were suppressed by many small nobles, and even the rights of Zampu were performed by Lu Dongzan after the death of Songtsan Gampo, politically, Lu Dongzan can be said to be mortal enemies with Mangsong Mangzan, Chi Ma Lun.
I don't know why, looking at his old and fat body sitting there, it gives people a sense of reassurance, and people can't help but feel a sense of relaxation, and the awkward feeling makes the Zampu couple not even dare to come out.
It was Lu Dongzan who opened his mouth first with a helpless wry smile.
"Zampu, now is not the time to bow to you, what's the situation?"
Finally, the embarrassing atmosphere was alleviated, and Chi Ma Lun and Mangsong Mangzan were also a little more comfortable, but Mangsong Mangzan was still a little unable to open his mouth, but Chi Malen was more mature, and after a while, he told the situation.
"The four guards and the soldiers of the Wulu clan were ambushed by the Zhangxiong people on the Red River Beach, the army was routed, and my father's life and death are unknown."
"What else?"
Scratching his head, Chi Malen said in a low voice again: "The grain in the city was burned by thieves, the mission of the Fujian State was attacked by the Chang'an Mission, the Fujian State closed the trade routes of the Himalayan Pass, and the grain and military rations awarded to the tribes were gone."
"What else?"
Listening to Lu Dongzan's question, Zampu and Pu both shook their heads in surprise, but Lu Dongzan, who didn't want to listen to it, sighed, and said with hatred: "I want to fight for power so early, the old man still thinks that you have grown up, but you are still so naΓ―ve, Sangzan, Bai Lu, and Tasang The three small state lords have left Lhasa a few days ago, I am afraid that this will raise troops to betray and rebel against my Tibet, and I can't even detect this, how did you become the lord of this country?"
Now it's okay, there is a strong enemy outside, there is no food and grass inside, not to mention, and they have to face a rebellion, Mangsong Mangzan and Chimaren were dumbfounded when they listened, and after a while, they swallowed their saliva, and Mangsong Mangzan asked with difficulty: "Then, Dazhuan, how to deal with it now?"
This situation is difficult enough, but Lu Dongzan laughed when he heard it, and said with hatred: "What else can I do?" You are the lord of the country, of course, in the name of your Zampu, mobilize the tribes to fight to the death against the Zhangxiong of the north and drive them out? β
Can it be that simple? Dumbfounded, Mangsong Mangzan stumbled again and said, "But., there is no grain and grass!"
Speaking of this, Lu Dongzan's old face was suddenly full of pride, raised his wrinkled head and said with a smile: "Zampu, since the founding of the country, we in Tubo have ever needed to gather troops with food and grass? Let all the tribes and Dongdai prepare their own rations for five days, and the rest will be taken to the land of the Zhangxiong people! β
"How many years, the tiger is not powerful, and actually let the sick cat bully the head, this time, we want to remind the Xiangxiong people of what is called fear!"
After being stunned for a long time, looking at the confidence on Lu Dongzan's face, Mangsong Mangzan suddenly had a feeling of sudden enlightenment, and nodded heavily.
"Ben Zamp is going to give the order!"
Mangsong Mangzan was excited to stand up and prepare, but Chi Malen suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed his arm and dragged him back, and a pair of eyes were full of golden light to look at Lu Dongzan.
"Comment, how should the relationship between Tubo and Fujian and the Tang Dynasty be handled?"
When it came to this question, Lu Dongzan also let out a long sigh and shook his head helplessly
