707 Toughness Requires Ability
"You can't help but look up to them too much, how poor the countries of the Western Regions are, this doesn't need me to say at all, you have hundreds of thousands of troops at every turn, do you expect the countries of the Western Regions to be able to afford it? Even Gao Changguo can't afford it. ”
The Western Turkic Khan suddenly thought of another thing, when Li Xiang and their eastern expedition to Goguryeo, they dispatched more than 200,000 troops before and after, and their Western Turkic strength was even stronger than Goguryeo.
"Hundreds of thousands of troops? Your Excellency can't help but look down on yourself too much, how effective is our army? I believe there is a comment in your heart, don't talk big, at most 350,000 troops, I guarantee that you can pacify the Western Regions. ”
Li Xiang's roast leg of lamb has almost been eaten, although the two sides are tense, but Li Xiang is also eating vigorously, and he is not affected by the surrounding situation in the slightest.
Li Xiang's words made the Western Turkic Khan unable to speak, he has indeed seen the combat effectiveness of the Tang army, and now there are less than 10,000 Tang troops, which has already brought them huge pressure, but the gap between the two sides is too big, they are no longer at the same level, and our combat methods are not useful to others at all.
"If that's the case, then why don't you mobilize your army and take down the entire Western Regions? Why do you have to spend so much time now? ”
When the Western Turkic Khan also had a bright head, he asked this question to know what Li Xiang was thinking, the Tang army now has a total of hundreds of thousands of people, and it is nothing to make up tens of thousands of troops, but why has the Tang army never attacked?
Li Xiang was also thinking about how to answer, after years of conquest, there was not much money left in the treasury of the Tang Dynasty, and the countries of the Western Regions were vast, if we occupied all of them, it would be very difficult at present, and there was no way to manage them effectively, so it could be said that the gains outweighed the losses.
"Since you said so, then I won't explain anything else, then I'll let you see how powerful the Datang army is, but I don't know if you have that seed."
Li Xiang knew how to defend it and it was useless, so he simply made a look like he was going to attack, of course, Li Xiang's heart was very empty at the moment, if the other party was not convinced, then he could only fight hard, it was very easy to fight down in many places, but can you hold it? Especially with such a vast territory as the Western Regions.
Li Xiang threw away the tableware in his hand as he spoke, the soldiers behind him were ready, the two countries would not fight each other, and we would just fight after we went back.
"Aren't you afraid you won't be able to get out of here?"
Hearing the words of the Western Turk Khan, Abarasha didn't know what to say, since Li Xiang had rushed here, he must have made sufficient preparations, and if you say such a thing, it is a provocation.
"Then aren't you afraid that the people in the hands of General Kang Ying won't come back? Or maybe he has become one of my people, how many troops do you have? How many troops does he have? You know what my identity is, if I can't get out of here, you may be more miserable than Xue Yantuo Khan, I am the heir of the Tang Dynasty, if something happens to me here, where can you flee to? ”
Li Xiang said with a disdainful face, when Li Xiang spoke, he suddenly slapped the table in front of him, and then a leg of mutton flew out, this leg of mutton was inserted into the seat behind the Western Turkic Khan impartially, and the bones of the leg of mutton actually went in half, this power is not something that ordinary people can have.
After the surrounding guards saw it, they all took out their weapons, and there were not too many people on Li Xiang's side, so if it really started, Li Xiang would definitely suffer, but at this moment, Li Xiang's face was not panicked, as he said, did the Western Turk Khan really have the courage?
"Bastard, whoever let you in, go down right away."
Abarasha knew that the Khan of the Western Turks would not break with Li Xiang, so when these people came out, Abarasha scolded them and quickly scolded them all, only these people in it, everyone just moved their mouths, and there would be no too serious consequences, but if you soldiers came in, it would be difficult to predict what to do next.
For Abalasa's performance, the Western Turk Khan is also very satisfied, in the case of many people, the Western Turk Khan also has to be tough, otherwise one day it will be spread, the Khan they believe in is a soft egg, how to manage their own people?
"Since it's useless to talk about it here, then let's just go to war, I won't embarrass you, after you go back, reorganize your army, we will fight on the battlefield, and your Tang forces will never come to the grassland in the future."
The Western Turkic Khan pretended to be calm and said, but this guy's little thumb kept swaying back and forth, and it happened to be seen by Li Xiang, Li Xiang knew that the other party was panicking now, how capable is your army? Li Xiang has already made people investigate clearly, not to mention that this guy Abalasha is still guilty, if you really fight, can you win?
"Farewell."
Li Xiang knew that the other party didn't have the courage, so he simply didn't say anything else, and walked to the door with his subordinates, the Western Turkic Khan was really panicked at this time, he had not grasped the initiative all along, and was led by Li Xiang in the process of talking, but he didn't expect it to lead to such a point.
Abarasha also looked at the Khan in horror, and the Khan couldn't pull Li Xiang by himself at this time, so he could only rely on Abarasha.
"His Royal Highness, please stay, His Royal Highness, please stay......"
After Abarasha saw the Khan's eyes, he immediately knew what to do, and for the next period of time, the Western Turkic Khan was a puppet and could never say anything, but what Abarasha said here represents what the Khan said, bow his head and admit his mistakes to others, after all, he is just a prime minister, and I am a king.
"What else does Sangkoku-sama say?"
Li Xiang did not stop his steps while talking, all of this was seen by the Western Turkic Khan, which showed that people were not scaring themselves, and they were already preparing to do so.
"Please stay, His Royal Highness Taisun, the war is a disaster for our Western Turks, we have just encountered a huge scale of wind and sand, our life is really bad now, please take care of His Royal Highness Taisun......"
Abarasha was already pleading......
