Chapter 1273: Allies Are Used to Betray

In response to the southward advance of the Tang Dynasty, the Zhenla Imperial Court also got the news, and they were really relieved, although they understood the truth of the cold lips and teeth, but if the Tang Dynasty wanted to destroy the Bi Kingdom, it would have to be a matter of two or three years, and it might even be longer.

Of course, this is for ordinary wars, and if they had understood how Li Xiang fought over the years, perhaps they would not have such thoughts.

The Zhenla court also gathered all the ministers to see how to support the country of Bi, the strength of the country they know that it is not as strong as the strength of Zhenla, if they alone fight against the Tang Dynasty, it is estimated that it will not last for a year.

"Now the Tang army is like a bamboo, and it has already occupied several cities in the south of Wacheng, but it may be because of the lack of troops, so the attack of the Tang army has stopped, but this king thinks that this should be a superficial phenomenon, and they will soon speed up the attack on the entire country of Piao, you Aiqing can say anything about it."

King Ruan Minh Hao of Zhenla sat on his throne, and at the moment his face no longer had the original self-confidence, originally they said that they were not convinced by the Tang Dynasty, and they wanted to teach some lessons to the Han people in the territory at every turn, but when the Tang army really came, these people did not have the courage to fight with the Tang army, mainly because the gap between the two sides was too big.

"His Royal Highness King Qiqi, if Weichen's guess is right, the prime minister of the court of the Bi Kingdom should be coming soon, at the latest in this day or two, according to the original alliance between our two countries, if any country is attacked by the Tang Dynasty, then the other country will send all the country's troops to support..."

When he heard this, King Zhenla had a headache, and he made the decision to sign the agreement at the beginning, after all, he was also afraid that the Tang Dynasty would attack them, so he was afraid that the Bi State would not send people, but now he didn't expect that it was the Bi State that would attack, if he let him send the whole country's army over, he really didn't have that idea.

"That's what the covenant says, but if we send out the whole country's troops, what if the Tang army comes from the north again? We also border the Tang Dynasty, and our army to the north is just as powerful, the Tang Empire is too big, they can win two or even three wars at the same time. ”

Ruan Minghao shook his head and said, when he said this, these people present also understood what His Royal Highness the King meant, that is, we have to be ready to play Laipi, and we have to play fairly.

If it is to keep our people and property, then the whole country will go to the front, then it can still be justified, but in order to keep the neighboring country, and the relationship is not so good, the neighboring country you let us send all the people over, is that possible?

What's more, if the Tang Dynasty attacks us, it is impossible for you to send all the soldiers from all over the country, the covenant is written very well, but if it is really implemented, how many people will implement it according to what is written?

"Your Highness is right, so the old minister thinks that when the prime minister of the country comes, we only need to take the 30,000 people in the west away, which can be regarded as fulfilling our responsibility, not to mention that there is still a long border in our north, once there are too many people leaving, we can't bear it."

"Lord Naiboo is right, if they are not satisfied, we can completely create some friction in the north, as if we are also at war with the Tang army in the north, anyway, the country of Bi is in the midst of war, and we don't know much about our side."

The ministers present all began to offer advice, and in the final analysis, one thing was that no one else could be taken away except for the 30,000 troops in the west.

In addition, some people even proposed that we can pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty, and put forward a more favorable condition for the vassal, such as increasing the tribute.

But now we don't have to send it over, wait until the war is over, if the Tang Dynasty wins, then we have to make up the money even if we sell pants and shoes, which can ensure the security of our homeland.

But if Datang fails, then the money doesn't have to be sent over at all, Datang has already been defeated, why do we have to pay tribute? It is even possible to take advantage of this opportunity to capture several cities in the north.

Listening to the eloquent talk of his subordinates, King Ruan Minh Hao of Zhenla is also very satisfied, in his opinion, he is now invincible, whether the Tang army wins or fails, we already have a countermeasure here.

In this case, the prime minister of the country came to the royal city of Zhenla, but this old guy came on a fast horse, and there was no rest on the road at all.

I wanted to meet with King Zhenla as soon as possible, but who knew that King Zhenla occasionally felt a chill and assigned some high-ranking officials of Zhenla to receive him.

This made the prime minister feel that something was wrong, but he was still patient with his temperament, and proposed an alliance between the two countries during the formal talks, and asked Chenla to send troops to support the war in accordance with the agreement.

The final result is naturally impossible, the Zhenla side only promised to send 30,000 troops from the border area, of course, the words of the people are very beautiful, these 30,000 troops are only the first batch to pass, and soon there will be a second and third batch, as for where the follow-up army will be transferred, when to cross the border line, these things are not mentioned.

Prime Minister Mirdo of the country is also an old man in the political arena, of course he can understand this kind of diplomatic rhetoric, and there were originally many people looking for him to do things, and he also talked about him left and right, and would not give the other party an accurate answer.

At that time, he felt that he was very wise, but now that he is being made difficult by others like this, he doesn't think it has anything to do with wisdom.

In desperation, Prime Minister Mirdo could only repeatedly propose to see King Zhenla, and only by explaining all this to the king could he take more troops away, if there were only 30,000 troops, it would not play much role on the battlefield at all.

It's a pity that the king of Zhenla just avoided it, and the day after Prime Minister Mirdo came, there was also a fast horse report from the north of Zhenla.

The Tang army in the north also began to attack Zhenla, and as soon as Prime Minister Mirzo heard this, he hurriedly took the king's gold medal order arrow, and then led the 30,000 troops in the west of Zhenla to go back, if the Tang army came over, I am afraid that these 30,000 troops will not ......
