Don't talk about feelings between countries, and talk about feelings that hurt interests.

The war between Tubo and Tuyuhun has developed to this stage, in fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see that it is only a matter of time before Tuyuhun is destroyed.

What if Datang intervenes?

The cruel truth is that the Tang Dynasty sent troops to intervene, and the ending of Tuyuhun was the same, the difference is that Tuyuhun is in the hands of Tubo or Datang.

Tuyuhun, who is now resisting to the death, has gradually become an abandoned child from a pawn on the chessboard.

This is the sorrow of small countries, which has been the case for thousands of years, even more than a thousand years later.

Only the big country is the hand that holds the chess and can decide where the chess pieces should fall.

Li Qinzai was very clear about Li Zhi's strategic intentions, Li Zhi did not want that after this battle, the northwest of the Tang Dynasty would still be subject to Tubo and Tuyuhun, Tubo was a big trouble, Tuyuhun was a small trouble, and it was better to control the land of Tuyuhun in the hands of the Tang Dynasty itself.

The battle between Tubo and Tuyuhun is an opportunity for Tubo, and it is also an opportunity for Datang.

It's a pity that Princess Honghua, who is in the game, can't see the situation clearly.

She still naively thought that as long as the Tang Dynasty sent troops to help them drive out the Tibetans, the Khan of Nuo Hao Bo would still be able to rule Tuyuhun, and the descendants of Nuo Hao Bo would still be able to inherit the throne and land subjects forever.

My lord, times have changed.

Princess Honghua was so angry that she trembled, and Li Qinzai's words made her break her defense in an instant.

Eating hot pot and singing, her husband is a good khan, and the word in front of her made her husband the vassal king of the Tang Dynasty?

So what is she, the princess of the Tang Dynasty? Princess?

"Li Qinzai, this palace asks you again, is this what you mean, or is it the meaning of the Tang Emperor?" Princess Honghua's eyes were red, and she gritted her teeth and asked.

Li Qinzai smiled: "Your Highness, don't worry, the lower official is an envoy of the Tang Dynasty, the envoy, of course, we must strive for the greatest interests of the Tang Dynasty, if the Khan of Nuo Haobo can't grasp Tuyuhun, it is better to let the Tang Dynasty grasp it." ”

"Otherwise, Datang will help Tuyuhun defeat Tubo this year, what if people come again next year? Helping Tuyuhun send troops year after year, Datang will be very troubled, and no matter how big the relationship between you and us is, it will become thinner and thinner......"

"Li Qinzai, don't you think! This palace will never agree, and neither will the Khan of Nohoba! Princess Honghua said angrily.

"Your envoy is a corpse vegetarian, and he can't be relied on at all, this palace wants to be sparse from the Son of Heaven, and ask the Son of Heaven to send troops to save Tuguhun!"

Li Qinzai was not angry, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, please take it, the lower officials have a clear conscience about the Tang Dynasty." ”

Seeing Li Qinzai's attitude, Princess Honghua knew that she could not influence Li Qinjae's decision as a princess.

This gentleman from Chang'an does not seem to be incompetent, judging from his various actions after coming to Liangzhou, it is a bit tricky.

In particular, the attitude towards Tuyuhun as an enemy and friend made Princess Honghua even more unpredictable, which also cast a hazy fog over the relationship between the two countries.

The envoys of the Tang Dynasty represent the Son of Heaven, that is to say, what kind of thoughts does the Son of Heaven of the Tang Dynasty have about Tuyuhun, I am afraid that this answer is not so good.

The more Princess Honghua thought about it, the more frightened she became, she didn't want herself and her husband to be driven away like lost dogs, and she didn't want to become outcasts after the game between the two big countries.

The banquet came to an end, and the guests and hosts parted unhappily.

For Princess Honghua, this negotiation is not without gains, at least she has vaguely understood the attitude of the Tang Emperor.

The attitude of the Son of Heaven was unfavorable to Tuyuhun, and the envoys were delayed in entering the country, most of them were thinking of benefiting the fisherman, so that the two countries could fight and consume, and in the end, if the Tang Dynasty could send troops, no matter who was the enemy of the Tang Dynasty, it would be much easier to clean up.

It's a pity that Princess Honghua knew that Datang might have such a mind, but she couldn't change anything.

Tubo's attack must be resisted, but she is helpless to delay the Tang Dynasty.

After all, she is no longer the woman in front of Taizong's knees, and it is impossible for the current Tang Dynasty to really regard her as her own sister, this is the sorrow of the princess and her relatives.

The banquet dispersed, and Li Qinzai instructed the officials of the Assassin's Mansion to arrange for Princess Honghua to stay at the pavilion.

When she left the Assassin's Mansion, Princess Honghua was already a little drunk, and Li Qinzai smiled and led the officials to send her out of the door.

Princess Honghua was just about to get on the horse, when her movements suddenly stopped, and she turned her head to stare at Li Qinzai.

"Robbing the Tuyuhun tribe twice in a row, it's only three things, and the palace doesn't want to have a next time."

Li Qinzai hurriedly said: "Your Highness, rest assured, next time I will rob Tibet." ”

Princess Honghua snorted, but she didn't react for a while, an envoy representing the Son of Heaven of the Tang Dynasty led the forbidden army, like a group of grass cowards who had not tasted meat for ten years, wondering if there was something wrong with robbing this and that.

At this moment, she only thinks that it is good if he doesn't rob Gu Hun.

Nodding, Princess Honghua suddenly said: "It's just that you robbed Tuyuhun's cattle, sheep and horses, what's the matter with robbing Tuguhun's women?" Tomorrow I will give this palace a lot and come back! ”

Li Qinzai was taken aback and said embarrassedly: "Huh? All...... It's all sold. ”

…………

After sending Princess Honghua back to the pavilion, Li Qinzai returned to the Assassin's Mansion and summoned Liu Asi and Sun Congdong.

"In the current situation, I still need to continue to delay, so I still can't go to Tuyuhun." Li Qinzai said in a deep voice.

"In fact, the most important task of my envoy is not to mediate the war between the two countries, but to delay, to buy time for the two provinces of the Tang River and the south and Huainan to raise grain and grass, once the grain and grass are raised, the Tang Dynasty will send troops to Tuguhun, and then my task will be completed."

Sun Congdong nodded vigorously: "The last general understands." ”

Li Qinzai said again: "But now Tuyuhun is getting more and more cold, and it is estimated that it will not last long before the country will be destroyed, which is not in the interests of Datang, once Tubo completely occupies Tuyuhun, it will be more troublesome for Datang, so we need to do something to slow down the pace of Tubo's attack." ”

Sun Congdong and Liu Asi hugged their fists and said, "Please give orders to Uncle Li." ”

Li Qinzai pondered for a moment and said: "The Li family and the 1,000 forbidden army have entered Tuyuhun again, and this time they will go to Jishi Mountain, which is the front line of the war between the two countries, you need to go into battle once to give Tubo a deterrent." ”

Sun Congdong's eyes lit up and said, "The last general is willing to lead the soldiers to break the formation!" ”

"What's the break? Significant for you? I mean, use your three-eyed guns to go into battle, snipe the enemy in three formations, teach a good lesson to Tubo and Tuyuhun, and at the same time add some weight to my speech and negotiation in the rear, understand? ”

Li Qinzai put up a finger and said slowly: "Remember, you only need to go into battle once, in front of the two countries, give Tubo a head-on blow, after the confrontation, if Tubo retreats, you also retreat, and the front is handed over to Tuyuhun to continue to defend, what I need is deterrence, not to let you fight hard." ”
