Chapter 951: Reactions from all sides

The layout of the country must be prepared for a rainy day. Lum

Although the Tang Dynasty has not yet sent troops to the east, the neighboring countries around the Tang Dynasty are very clear that Goguryeo will not be fortunate in this eastward expedition.

In the year of Zhenguan, Li Shimin personally drove to Goguryeo, and whether the war was won or lost is a matter of different opinions from later generations, but at least it is certain that Goguryeo has suffered a great loss of vitality.

After the withdrawal of the Tang Dynasty, it implemented a policy of clearing the wilderness of Goguryeo, that is, burning the grain fields and agricultural warehouses in Goguryeo, often crossing the border to plunder the young and strong people of Goguryeo, and blockading the border around Goguryeo, prohibiting trade, and so on.

These policies were not implemented by the border army in Liaodong until more than ten years after Li Zhi ascended the throne.

Goguryeo, a typical mountainous country, where can it withstand such a target from the Tang Dynasty, is now starving all over the wilderness, ten rooms and nine empty, its country is dying, the princes have lost their enterprising intentions, and the soldiers have no intention of conscripting and killing.

The building will fall, and with a gentle push of one finger, it will fall with a bang.

What Datang is preparing now is to stretch out this finger and completely erase the country from the map. Lum

The surrounding neighbors were not fools, so they naturally saw the situation clearly, so although Goguryeo had not yet destroyed the country, the Silla kingdom began to take precautions and set its sights on the land of Baekje.

The matter of the Silla envoys bribing the courtiers was tacitly understood, and after receiving the bribes, they naturally took people's money and property to eliminate disasters for others, and some of them had already begun to secretly poke and write songs, preparing to go up and persuade the emperor to give up Baekje.

However, the bribery was poked out overnight, causing a storm in the city, and the courtiers who took bribes were suddenly speechless, and everyone was in danger.

When public opinion was surging, Mo said that he advised the Son of Heaven to give up Baekje, and they themselves could not be protected, and if the matter was big, the Son of Heaven was furious and ordered a strict investigation, and none of the people who received bribes from Silla could escape.

Inside the Siyi Museum.

The Tibetan envoy Tashile looked excited, pacing back and forth in the not spacious room. Lum

Obviously, he only came to Chang'an to congratulate the Tang Dynasty on behalf of the Tibetan Prime Minister, but he never expected that the group of monkeys in Silla would explode such a big thunder.

Although Tibet and Silla are said to be one in the west and the other in the east, there is an entire Tang Dynasty in between.

But what the Silla envoys did this time was inextricably linked to Tibet.

"Quick, send a fast horse back to Tibet, report to the prime minister, just say that Silla wants to collect Baekje, the Tang government and the opposition are disagreeing, how to behave in the minister, please reply to the minister quickly."

One of the attendants said puzzledly, "What does the dispute between Silla and the Tang Kingdom have to do with our Tibet?"

Zaheil looked at him deeply, and at this moment, he no longer seemed to be rough and upright, and a fine light flashed in his eyes.

"Do you know what the Emperor of Tang Guo is going to do next?" Taheil asked. Lum

The entourage replied without thinking: "In the Eastern Expedition to Goguryeo, it is said that the Tang State has begun to prepare grain, grass and ordnance, and train soldiers day and night."

Taheil sighed and said, "Now that Goguryeo is weak, there is no suspense about destroying the country, so after the Tang State destroys Goguryeo, do you know what the Emperor of the Tang Kingdom will do next?"

The attendant shook his head in confusion.

Tashile looked in the direction of Taiji Palace and sighed, "Next, the Tang Kingdom is going to go west, to be precise, to be precise, to fight with me Tubo for the rest of his life."

The entourage was shocked: "How dare Tang Guo ......?"

Tashile sneered: "Why don't Tang Guo dare? The descendants of Tian Khan have not weakened his father's prestige, and the wisdom of this son of heaven of the Tang Kingdom is not inferior to his father in any way, and his plans for the next ten years or even decades of the Tang Kingdom are clear."

"The Tang Dynasty is rich in products and fertile land, and the accumulation of a year or two of national capital can support a major war, and my Tubo land is barren, since the defeat of Tugu Hun and the withdrawal of the army, the vitality has not recovered, and the body of the Great Minister is now ......."

Tashile sighed: "If the Tang Kingdom destroys Goguryeo, then the day of the death of our Tubo is also imminent, and Tubo is the henchman of the Tang Dynasty, as long as they can free their hands, they will definitely send troops to conquer us."

Saying that, Tashile showed a hideous look on his face, gritted his teeth and said, "Therefore, we can't let the Tang Kingdom destroy Goguryeo

It's too easy, even if it is destroyed, it will not be able to make the countries of the peninsula peaceful, and it will definitely create an incident, contain the power of the Tang State, make it unable to look westward, and give us Tubo time to accumulate national strength!"

At the other end of the Siyi Pavilion, Kim Wenying, the envoy of Silla, was furious in the room.

At this point he was like an angry lion, and any animal that dared to approach his territory would be torn to shreds by him.

"Who is the rumor in Chang'an City? Who the hell is it?" Jin Wenying said angrily.

"We have persuaded more than a dozen courtiers of the Tang State to discuss the abandonment of Baekje, who spread the news of the bribe?" Lum

An unworthy retinue said in horror: "General Kim is angry, no one in my Silla mission dares to divulge even a word, and this matter is definitely not the work of people inside my mission."

Jin Wenying said coldly: "The only people who know are our mission and the more than 20 Tang ministers who took bribes, we didn't leak it, could it be that those Tang Chens told others about their lives?"

"Now that the city is full of turmoil, the people of the entire Chang'an are staring at our Silla mission, teaching us that we can't move, and I don't know where the thieves are doing bad things for me, and how vicious their intentions are!"

The retinue said, "General Jin, what should we do next?"

Jin Wenying said angrily, "What else can I do? I can only stay in Siyi Pavilion in An'an, and I can't do anything! If the Emperor of Tang is vigilant, it will never be possible for Silla to accept Baekje, and even the Tang-Luo alliance will break down."

The attendant cautiously said: "Now that the city is full of storms, should we take the initiative to report to the Emperor of the Tang State, just say that the so-called bribery of the officials of the Tang State is all false, and it is the enemy who is provoking the relationship between the Tang State and Silla......

The furious Jin Wenying suddenly calmed down, and even showed a warm smile to his entourage. Lum

"Come, come here, come closer, and stick your pig's face over!"

With a crisp snap, Jin Wenying returned to a state of rage and shouted, "Do you want to beat the gong and drum to tell the people of the world that this matter has nothing to do with our Silla?"

"If you want to cover it up, don't admit yourself, how can there be a fool like you in the mission...... By the way, who did you recommend to the Mission? Did you come all the way to eat?"

Tai Chi Palace.

In the afternoon of the noisy rumors, a note appeared in front of Li Zhi.

「…… The lord of Silla swore to His Majesty the Great Tang Heavenly Khan that there were rumors in Beijing that someone was maliciously spreading rumors and causing trouble, in a vain attempt to drive a wedge between the Tang Dynasty and his loyal vassal Silla." Lum

"The so-called bribery of the courtiers of the Silla Kingdom in Beijing is even more false, and there is no evidence, so I ask His Majesty the Heavenly Khan to learn from it."
