Chapter 494: Those who offend my Tang Dynasty will be punished even if they are far away!
Glancing at Lu Dongzan, Li Zhi temporarily put down the anger in his heart, waiting to hear what he had to say.
"Your Majesty the Emperor, I, Tubo, have now taken a lot of land, as long as the Tang Dynasty admits that there is still a meandering land south of Wenbo, it will all belong to my Tubo.
I, Tibet, agreed to a truce and a halt to the war in the Tuhun Valley and reconciled. ”
Lu Dongzan saluted again and said the backup strategy of Tubo.
Cuowenbo is actually the Tibetan name for Qinghai Lake, which means "blue sea".
Although Tubo has not yet been killed, as long as the follow-up troops and horses are deployed, the place he said will inevitably be taken by himself.
If you can pass through the Tang Dynasty and let Tuhun Valley give up these places to yourself, it will be more beneficial to Tubo.
As long as the vast land of Qinghai Lake and the meanders of the Yellow River can be acquired, the strength of Tibet will inevitably rise to a higher level.
After they have completely digested it, they can continue eastward and annex the Tuhun Valley in one fell swoop.
At that time, even if Datang really wants to fight with himself, he must weigh his own losses.
"Where the wrong temperature wave and the Yellow River meanders? You think it's very beautiful, or just let Tuhun Valley Shan Yu completely merge into your Tubo! ”
Cheng Yanjin also raised his eyebrows coldly when he heard this, you Tubo people are really toads who want to eat swan meat.
I really don't know how many pounds and taels I have.
"If this is the case, I, Tubo, will definitely obey the Tang Dynasty as the suzerain, and I will not betray it forever, but I don't know if His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty agrees?"
Looking at Cheng Biting Jin, who had white eyebrows and beards, Lu Dongzan also sneered, and went straight to Cheng Biting Jin's words.
“???”
Seeing that Lu Dongzan actually climbed up the pole, Cheng Biting Jin was also as uncomfortable as eating a dead fly.
If this wasn't for the Jinluan Palace, if he wasn't for the great minister of Tubo, he would have to blow up this old man's head.
"You"
"Lu Guogong, don't be angry."
"Lu Dongzan, you must be tired from Tibet, I have prepared a banquet for you to rest temporarily.
As for these militaristic events, I'll talk about it when you're rested. ”
Li Zhi glanced at the aggrieved Cheng Biting Jin, and slowly confided in Lu Dongzan.
"In that case, Lu Dongzan would like to thank His Majesty the Emperor."
Lu Dongzan smiled slightly, Li Zhi did not refuse in the court, which proved that there was room for relaxation in this matter.
If you can really achieve your own intention, then Tubo will surely prosper.
"Your Majesty, you must not promise Tubo, now Tubo is already the biggest enemy of my Tang Dynasty in the southwest.
Tuhun Valley is the front line against Tubo, if you really let Tubo succeed.
They have digested what they have just said, and they will inevitably press forward step by step in the next step.
When the Tuhun Valley is completely annexed, the Tang Dynasty will be in danger. ”
Cheng Yanjin couldn't hold back and saluted directly at Li Zhi.
The places mentioned by Lu Dongzan are the most plastering places in the southwest, and although the places in Tibet are not small, there are few of these good places.
If these places are really given up to Tibet, there will be endless troubles.
"Your Majesty, the minister also thinks that what Lu Guogong said is very true, Tuhun Valley cannot be lost, nor can it be allowed.
If we have the slightest doubt now, it will fuel the arrogance of Tibet.
Therefore, the minister suggested that troops should be sent immediately to fully support Tuhun Valley.
Only by giving Tubo a severe blow can we curb the arrogance of the other party and ensure the safety of the southwest of the Tang Dynasty. ”
Li Ji also stood up and frowned and admonished Li Zhi.
"Renyaxiang, what do you think?"
Li Zhi looked at Ren Yaxiang on the side and asked the other party's opinion.
"Tubo is like a hungry wolf to my Tang Dynasty, but our army is now short of food and grass, and the main forces are in the north, if we start a war rashly, it will be unfavorable to me."
Ren Yaxiang frowned, he actually supported the war, but now they are unprepared in the southwest, and most of the main force is in the north.
Su Dingfang exterminated the Turks, and Xue Rengui also led a large army to attack Goguryeo.
It is not easy to draw troops and horses out, and they have been fighting for many years, and they do not have much grain and grass stored now.
If you really want to start a war with Tibet, it will take a long time to prepare.
"What do you mean? Do you agree with what Nalu Dongzan said? ”
Cheng Yanjin looked at Ren Yaxiang and went straight away.
When Lu Dongzan said this, he just felt angry, but if Ren Yaxiang agreed, he would be angry.
How can anyone turn their elbows outward?
You're still not human.
"Lu Guogong? Be careful! ”
Li Zhi glared at Cheng Biting Jin, knowing that you are a violent temper, but you can't just blow it up.
This is my Jinluan Palace, not your Luguo Mansion.
No wonder Cheng Chubi's criticism always causes trouble, it turns out that it is all inherited from you.
"Your Majesty, I think what Lu Guogong said is extremely true, and it cannot fuel the arrogance of Tibet.
Didn't Prime Minister Ren say that the soldiers and horses were not ready, and the grain and grass were not complete?
Su Dingfang was willing to send 10,000 troops to the south, and he was determined to drive the Tubo people out of the Tuhun Valley. ”
Su Dingfang, who had just broken the Turks and was named the Duke of Xing Guogong, also stood up with a tiger face and asked Li Zhi for battle.
"Your Majesty, think twice! Once the troops are dispatched, the war between the two countries will not be able to be quelled in a moment or two.
Now that the Western Regions have just been pacified, what if there is a problem over there?
With benevolence and elegance in mind, it is harmless to temporarily admit the ownership of those places.
Wait until the Western Regions are thoroughly digested, and then raise troops to help Tuhun Valley regain the lost territory, which is justified. ”
Ren Yaxiang shook his head again, sacrificing a Tuhun Valley is insignificant to the Tang Dynasty, but if you really want to fight against Tubo, it will be a national war.
Trading space for time is not unacceptable to him.
At the very least, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages for Datang, after all, the speed at which he digests the Western Regions is stronger than that of Tubo in digesting the river meanders and the wrong temperature waves.
"Your Majesty, Cheng Biting Jin is asking for war."
"Your Majesty, Wei Chi Jingde invites you to fight."
"Your Majesty, Li Ji is invited to fight."
The generals glanced at each other and saluted Li Zhi together.
They asked themselves that they were not benevolent, but they expressed their meaning in the most simple way.
Please.
"Your Majesty thinks twice."
"Your Majesty thinks twice."
"Your Majesty thinks twice."
However, a group of civil officials chose to support Ren Yaxiang, and they had the same idea as Ren Yaxiang, and it was not appropriate to start a full-scale war with Tibet now.
"That's enough, retreat!"
Li Zhi was so angry by the two waves of people that his head was so big that he shouted angrily and walked away.
"Retreat."
Ryan hurriedly shouted and left after Li Zhi.
"Humph!"
Cheng Yanjin glanced at Ren Yaxiang, and turned around to leave with a breath out of his nostrils.
The generals also sneered and left the Jinluan Palace.
Li Zhi left the Jinluan Palace and went directly to Wu Zetian's dormitory, and he still had to listen to his own views on military affairs.
"Mei Xiaoyanran and Hong'er are also there!"
Li Zhi looked at Li Yanran and Li Hong, who were coquettish in Wu Zetian's arms, and were also stunned.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you? Why is the face so ugly? ”
Wu Zetian frowned, not knowing what was wrong with Li Zhi.
"Mei Niang, this time the people from Tibet are not good!"
Li Zhi sat directly beside Wu Zetian and slowly told the intention of the Tubo people and the disputes in the court.
"Your Majesty, what do you think?"
After listening to Li Zhi's words, Wu Zetian also frowned.
"Naturally, I don't want to sit back and watch Tibet grow, but as Ren Yaxiang said.
Now the elite soldiers and generals of the Tang Dynasty are all in the north, and our grain and grass reserves need to be replenished for years and years.
If you really want to start a war with Tibet, I'm afraid I'll lose! ”
Li Zhi sighed, his father married Princess Wencheng to Tubo because he wanted to appease Tubo.
Now Datang is more than a step stronger than his father at that time, and if he still has to be coerced by the other party, he is very sad to pass this level in his heart.
It's just that Lao Tzu was bullied and threatened, if he was also bullied by the other party like this, then he, the emperor, would be too much of a failure.
But the situation is stronger than people, even if he really wants to fight with Tubo, he needs to transfer troops, and he will not be in place in a while.
This is the original intention of Ren Yaxiang, to exchange space for time, and to accumulate strength to win in one battle.
"Mei Niang, do you say it's war or peace?"
After finishing speaking, Li Zhi looked at Wu Zetian again, when the heavens and men were fighting, he really needed someone to help him make decisions.
Wu Zetian is the most suitable person for this.
Wu Zetian naturally knew the entanglement in Li Zhi's heart, as the son of the Tang Dynasty, every decision involved tens of millions of people.
Looking at Li Hong and Li Yanran, who were listening with their ears pricked up, Wu Zetian also smiled slightly and said, "Your Majesty, you might as well listen to what our Hong'er and Yanran think?" ”
Hearing Wu Zetian's words, Li Zhi was also stunned, but after thinking about it, this is the time to train his children, Li Hong is the prince of the Tang Dynasty after all.
Exposing him to these militaristic events as soon as possible will also be beneficial to his future growth.
"Hong'er, Yanran, do you have any ideas?"
"Father, beat him."
Li Hong looked at Li Zhi excitedly, jumped up and said directly.
This is the first time that my father has asked about his military affairs, and it is impossible to say that he is not happy.
Although his ideas may not be adopted, he is willing to pay attention to this matter.
“???”
Li Zhi was stunned, I asked you what you thought, but you gave me a sentence to beat him?
I still think highly of this stupid son.
"Hong'er, your father asked you what you think, you said that you beat him, there must be a reason!"
Wu Zetian also slapped his head, this kid is really a child, and he also thinks highly of him.
"Father, my son doesn't have any ideas, but Sister once said that those who offend me in the Tang Dynasty will be punished even if they are far away.
I don't know how strong the Tibetans are, but I know that I am fighting with people in the fiefdom, no matter how strong the other party is.
I'm always the first to shoot, and I'll play my momentum first. ”
Li Hong frowned and said everything in his heart when he was fighting.
"Fiefdom fights? Do you still dare to fight with people in your fiefdom? ”
He didn't hear what Li Hong said clearly, Li Zhi only heard that he often fought with people in the fiefdom.
As the prince of the Tang Dynasty, how can he fight with people all day long?
“???”
Hearing this, Li Hong also hurriedly covered his mouth.
It's bad, how did you tell this?
"Hey!"
