"Let's talk about it, this time Tibet is menacing, how should we deal with it?" Jingwen asked first.

And the military affairs chief of the Western Army first said: "Commander, I think we should take the initiative to lead the troops to kill them and crush them with upright strength." Moreover, we have already lost Liangzhou and Guazhou, and if we can't recover them as much as possible, then I'm afraid the emperor will pursue us. ”

This military chief still seems to be very bold, and he actually wants everyone to lead troops to kill him directly, so that he should be able to defeat the Tubo people. Moreover, he believes that if it is not recovered, it will be unlucky. Immediately, however, a different view was proposed.

"Sacrificial wine, I don't think so!" Pei Xingjian said.

Everyone looked at Pei Xingjian, wanting to see what he had to say.

"Sacrificial wine, in fact, I think that if we take the initiative to lead the troops to kill it, then I am afraid that the Tubo people will succeed, and they will take the initiative. And I think we should wait for the Tibetans to attack, so that we can find an opportunity to annihilate their living forces in large numbers, so that they will have to admit defeat. Pei Xingjian said.

"Joke, what if they don't come?" The Chief of Military Affairs said immediately.

Pei Xingjian immediately said: "According to the words of the sacrificial wine, war is a continuation of the political policy, if you can find the enemy's political purpose in time, and start according to the political purpose, you may be able to play a role in drawing the salary at the bottom of the kettle." I agree very much with the sentence of sacrificial wine, so I have some thoughts about the attack of Tibet in western Zhejiang. ”

Jingwen nodded and motioned for Pei Xingjian to continue. And Jingwen is also a little strange, he is actually just imitating a classic saying of the war theory in later generations, that is, the sentence that war is a continuation of politics, but he was remembered by this Pei Xingjian. And now he actually wants to analyze the political purpose of the Tubo people, which obviously makes Jingwen very concerned. Jingwen just couldn't analyze what the political purpose of the Tubo people was, so he had a headache. And if we can do the work according to the enemy's political goals, then maybe the war can really play a role in drawing wages from the bottom of the kettle.

Once the enemy's political goals are completely unattainable. That military action is like a blind man lighting a lamp -- in vain. Therefore, if you can draw money from the bottom of the political cauldron, it may indeed be able to help decisively in the war. War is a continuation of politics, and this is indeed true.

"Sacrificial wine, since we want to analyze the political purpose of the Tubo people, then we must first start with the Tubo people wanting to make peace with our Tang Dynasty. According to the requirements of the sacrificial wine, we collected a lot of information about the Tubo people during this time, but we didn't expect to use it now. Since the successful unification of the plateau by Songtsen Zangpu, the Tibetan people have actually established a state again. Although he is nominally the heir to the throne, he is actually different from starting another country. And now the interior of Tubo is not stable. Therefore, Tubo wants to make peace with Guò and use the power of my Tang Dynasty to suppress the opposition forces in the country. ”

"However, now the Tubo people are no longer able to make peace with my Tang Dynasty, this is because of the reason for the wine sacrifice. And since they can't make peace with my Datang, they can't use the power of my Datang to suppress their domestic opposition. Then they have to think of another way to suppress the country. But how to suppress it, only force can suppress it. But they need to prove their strength, to put it mildly, that is, to make an example of the chickens and monkeys. However, this chicken cannot be an ordinary chicken. If the chicken is too small, it may not be able to scare people. ”

"Therefore, the Tibetan people's Zampu chose our Datang as this chicken. The strength of my Tang Dynasty is known to the surrounding countries, if the Tubo people can pass the guò war. Forcing me to cede land and pay compensation for the Tang Dynasty can prove that the Tubo people are strong. If even Datang ceded the land and paid compensation, then they would probably be too scared to move. Of course, there is not even a need to pay compensation for land cession. As long as he can annihilate tens of thousands of our Datang troops, then he can suppress those domestic opposition forces. ”

"So, I think the Tibetans actually look menacing. But in fact, all he wants is to realize his own force, and then show those people in the country the strength they have in Tubo Zampu. ”

Next, Pei Xingjian continued to analyze the weaknesses of Tubo. In fact, Tubo did not send troops directly to the place bordering the Tang Dynasty, but used Tuyuhun to send troops to attack the Tang Dynasty. Although Tuyuhun can lend them the road, it is impossible to give them a steady stream of logistics materials. Therefore, the Tubo people have to loot from the front line, and if there are no supplies on the front line, then I am afraid they will go hungry. The Tibetans seem to be menacing, but in fact, their logistics have no power at all, and they are simply empty. Therefore, although the Tubo people seem to be aggressive now, they actually want to end the battle as much as possible, and then get some benefits from the Tang Dynasty, and then after returning to China, they can show off and pacify those opposing forces.

"So, I think the Tibetans are actually more anxious than we are. They prefer to be able to achieve a certain result as much as possible, and then end the battle with dignity. As long as they can end the battle with Datang with dignity and get certain benefits, then they will be enough to explain to the people in China, and they will also be able to let those opponents in the country see the strength of their strength. Even Datang has lost, so what can it not do? Therefore, we think that we should wait for them to wait until they can't hold on, and then take the initiative to attack. As long as we calm down, the Tibetans will soon come to a decisive battle. Once the decisive battle is held, we only need to kill and injure a large number of their living forces, and then they will die. The population of Tubo is not large now, and if we can leave all these 50,000 enemies in our Datang, then I am afraid that their losses will be enough to break their bones. Pei Xingjian said.

Pei Xingjian unceremoniously explained the behavior of Tubo by slapping his swollen face to become a fat man, Tubo was not enough to be able to show off his strength to the country, and by the way, he just took some advantages. The strength of Tibet is not strong, as long as everyone works hard, they can be defeated.

"Well, since Pei Xingjian pointed out the weakness of the Tubo people, that is, logistics, and domestic pressure. Then they will definitely not be able to hold it in the end, and then take the initiative to fight us. I want to tell everyone that the Tubo people are not terrible, the Tubo people are just slapping their swollen faces to make fat people, and they are completely fat guys. As long as we Datang exert their strength, then they will be miserable. Therefore, don't worry about not being able to defeat the Tubo people, you can rest assured! Jingwen said comfortingly.
