Chapter 337: The Great War Breaks Out

When he came out of the holy city, Lu Dongzan went to see the family of the Tubo Dynasty, the war has only been fought for a few months, and there is not much left of the Tubo Dynasty, if there is no new income, I am afraid they will not be able to hold on, whether you are the central government or the local government, if your pocket is empty, don't expect someone to sell your life to you.

In normal times, those who are subordinate to the central power are good, but at the critical moment, for the continuation of the central power, you should contribute your family's property, wife, children, and children.

When Lu Dongzan proposed this, Songtsen Gampo refused, after all, Songtsen Gampo wanted the same reputation as Li Shimin, and he couldn't do such a thing as robbing his subordinates, but Lu Dongzan put all the situation out, either you go and rob these toast masters, or we can't even get next month's military salary.

In a desperate situation, Songtsen Gampo could only agree with Lu Dongzan's idea, if Lu Dongzan knew that Li Xiang was playing behind his back, he would not have made such a decision, such a strategy could only be used once in a crisis, and it would have a devastating impact on the entire empire for a long time.

What he wants to do now is to extinguish all the wars on the entire plateau before Li Xiang comes, so that everything can be reduced to zero, so that Li Xiang can see a strong Tibet.

It's a pity that Li Xiang already knew about the situation on the plateau, and everything he did accelerated Li Xiang's plan and put the whole of Tibet into a state of weakness.

The battle of the second day came soon, the central army of Tubo broke through the defense line of the rebel Tusi like a bamboo, and the thousands of troops of the rebel Tusi on the first line were all killed, and the remaining army also withdrew to the second line of defense.

Lu Dongzan did not let people rest, but immediately started the second round of attack, even if it was a long journey, he had to take this opportunity to kill the camp of the rebel Tusi, not to let them continue to set up here, set up on the road of the Tang Dynasty personnel into Tibet.

After two consecutive days of defeat, there was no smile on Mai Qi Toast's face, although with Li Xiang's support, but Li Xiang's support was long-term, and now if he couldn't resist the attack, it was estimated that Li Xiang would turn his head and leave.

So Mai Qi Toast and several other toasts came to the battlefield in person, and took out the people who pressed the bottom of the box, and they were able to hold the second line of defense, Lu Dongzan took the lead on the battlefield, but these toasts who had no choice but to rebel were not given in vain, and their private soldiers were also extremely powerful.

The two sides fought in the second line of defense, and in one day both sides lost thousands of men and horses, and Mai Qi Tusi had already pulled up all the people who could fight.

Li Xiang and his entourage have been watching the fire from the other side, there has been a rebellion of this scale in the Tubo country, and the loss of a day is as high as several thousand, if such a war can last for half a month, then Li Xiang can immediately go home, Tubo lost tens of thousands of troops at once, at least in a few years can not slow down this momentum, but the leaders of both sides are quite calm, and it has stopped on the third day, and they also know that if they continue to fight a war of attrition like this, there can be no winner on either side.

Mai Qi Tusi made a decision in the middle, sent everything that Li Xiang brought to Ronggong Toast and Lasheba Toast, and let Li Xiang and several other Toasts meet, originally Li Xiang didn't want to go to the front of the stage, but now the battle situation is sluggish, if Li Xiang doesn't come forward, it is difficult to bring confidence to all Toast.

With the blessing of various operations, Lasheba Toast and Ronggong Toast also came with their own 8,000 troops, and a new force came from the rebel Tusi, and the Tusi of each family were relieved, plus a large amount of money sent by Li Xiang, although they lost a lot of money a few days ago, they did not lose confidence.

On the other hand, on the side of the Tubo Central Army, they originally wanted to defeat the rebel army within three days, but now that five days have passed, the two sides are still here to continue to be anxious, and Lu Dongzan can only order the army of the Holy City to go back first, before the rebel army is resolved, if you rob the Tusi around the Holy City, it is estimated that the army on the front line will mutini immediately.

In the middle of this, Mai Qi Tusi also talked to Li Xiang several times, hoping that Li Xiang could give them more support, but Li Xiang had already seen it at this time, after adding two Tusi, your strength could also withstand it, if you continue to support you, then you are very likely to overwhelm the central power of Tubo, that is by no means what Li Xiang is willing to see, let the strength of both of you almost continue to fight, this is a good way to weaken you.

So Li Xiang pretended to write a letter on the one hand, and on the other hand, he also shirked the long distance, anyway, just consume it, and Mai Qi Toast also knew that sending the letter to Chang'an from here, even if it was the best carrier pigeon, it would take more than ten days, and a month had passed since he flew back.

In the course of a month, it is not known what will happen.

"Young master, we have heard clearly, and the army on the border of Tuyuhun has also begun to retreat."

That night, when Li Xiang was studying, Long San came back from outside, and their people on the road sent back a message that the army on the border of Tuyuhun and Tubo had begun to retreat, and it should have received an order from Lu Dongzan.

"Is Lu Dongzan crazy?"

This is Li Xiang's reaction, Lu Dongzan has now taken out all the troops that can be taken out in his hands in order to quell the rebellion, in addition to the more than 10,000 people who defend the holy city, there are other armies that cannot be moved, and now he has brought all the troops that can be moved, and he wants to level the army of the old men of Tusi in one go.

"You immediately fly pigeons to pass the book, let Tuyuhun make some moves, and you must not let that army come back."

Li Xiang also immediately made arrangements, if the border army was allowed to come back, then the strength in Lu Dongzan's hands would rise sharply, at least the current Maiqi Tusi would not be able to hold on, which was contrary to Li Xiang's intentions.

Mai Qi Tusi has already contacted a new ally, and before the new ally agrees, if the border army comes back, Mai Qi Tusi and his allies will not be able to stop it at all, it is a wolf-like border army, with extremely strong combat effectiveness.

The scale is getting bigger and the number of people participating is increasing, and Li Xiang's mood is getting better and better, which means that after this war, the weakening of Tibet will be inevitable......
