The words of the Tubo envoy made it difficult for Li Erjun and his ministers to be true.

Good guy, I thought that your request for a marriage was just a cover, but I didn't expect that it was really your ultimate goal?

In order to marry a wife, the capital invested is too great.

Changsun Wuji looked around and saw the hesitation on Li Er's face, so he immediately understood what Li Er was thinking.

He opened his mouth again and said: "Your Majesty, Tubo Zanpu admires my noble daughter of the Celestial Dynasty, and it is rare to have such a respectful heart towards the etiquette and righteousness of my Celestial Dynasty...

Changsun Wuji didn't finish his sentence, but everyone understood what he meant.

A group of generals glared at Changsun Wuji.

As a general, you must have the momentum of disobedience.

It doesn't matter whether you, Songtsan Gampo, begged us to get married, or for other reasons.

When you come to the city, the "700" always did not wrong you, right?

In this case, if you don't beat you, why does Datang raise us people!

Li Er pondered for a moment, then waved his hands and said to the Tubo envoy: "I will give you an answer after thinking about it for a few days.

The Tubo envoy was overjoyed, knelt down three times and kowtowed nine times, shouting long live.

People's attitude is here, but it makes all the generals feel embarrassed to speak again.

Datang, the southwestern border, outside the city of Songzhou.

In the middle of the night, in the Tubo army camp, there was a tent next to the tent.

Tubo Prime Minister Lu Dongzan was holding a book and studying it carefully under the oil lamp.

Unlike ordinary Tubo people, he was dressed in Hanfu with a bun on his head, no different from ordinary Tang people.

He already has a gentle and elegant temperament, coupled with a majestic figure, at a glance, it makes people think he is a Confucian general.

Lu Dongzan is both civil and military, and he is indeed a generation of outstanding people in Tubo.

Songtsen Gampo was only twelve years old when he succeeded Zanpu.

It can be said that he, the co-lord of Tubo, was supported by Lu Dongzan.

Lu Dongzan admired the culture of the Central Plains, and has always been Songtsen Gampo's teacher.

It can be said that he is to Songtsan Gampo what Zhuge Wuhou of Shu Han was to Liu Chan.

Therefore, even Songtsan Gampo should be honored as his father.

When he was studying, the curtain was lifted, and Songtsan Gampo, who was tall, broad, and extremely strong, came in.

"Father Xiang, it's getting late, why aren't you falling asleep?" Songtsan Gampo asked, his face full of concern.

Lu Dong sighed in admiration, and said: "Today I entered Songzhou City and walked around the city for a day, and I was very impressed. 17

Songtsan Gampo was stunned for a moment, and then asked with a smile, "How does Xiangfu feel?"

"Songzhou City is just a place on the border of the Tang Dynasty, but the prosperity in the city is not like the world. Although our army besieged, the people in the city are peaceful and content, without any signs of panic. Zanpu, do you know why?" Lu Dongzan put down book, looked at Songtsan Gampo with piercing eyes.

Songtsan Gampo laughed and said: "The Tang Dynasty is prosperous and has the reputation of being invincible. The people take refuge in such a country, so naturally they will not be afraid of any foreign race."

Lu Dongzan nodded, then looked idiotic.

"The people of the Tang Dynasty regarded me as a barbarian. The emperor of the Tang Dynasty once said that barbarians, like beasts, are afraid of power and not virtuous. Therefore, since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, we have always followed the way of ending war with war. When facing foreigners like us, we never compromise!"

Songtsan Gampo frowned and said, "The Xiangfu's words are exaggerated. This time we sent 200,000 troops, and we have not even had a decent opponent. Although the Tang Dynasty is strong, it is on the defensive. As long as Tubo launches an attack , no matter what the result is, it is undefeated. But even if Datang loses a city, it is a failure!"

"Besides, the terrain of my Tubo is steep, and I have the blessings of the gods. I have an epidemic that Tang people can't overcome, so I don't have to worry about it. I heard that the Emperor Tang is also a battle-tested hero. It is impossible not to understand this truth. One ebbs and another ebbs and flows Under the circumstances, he will definitely weigh the pros and cons and make the right choice.

Songtsan Gampo's words were extremely eloquent.

The implication was that he was determined to intimidate Datang.

Moreover, since troops had been dispatched, Songtsen Gampo certainly did not want to return empty-handed.

Anyway, it is a business without cost, the only difference is how much you earn.

Although Datang is powerful, Tubo is not without advantages.

The natural advantage of geographical location gave Songtsen Gampo sufficient confidence.

In his eyes, facing Tubo, Datang could only be beaten passively.

No matter how beautiful the counterattack is, it is still a loss!

There was a trace of appreciation in Lu Dongzan's eyes, he nodded and smiled and said, "Zanpu, you have finally grown up!"

After a pause, he sneered, and said, "The emperor of Tang said he regarded foreigners as beasts, and I, Tubo, treat the people of Tang, so why not? The terrain of Tubo is treacherous, and it is difficult for the common people to survive. ..”

"On the other hand, the Tang Dynasty claimed to be a country of etiquette. With that kind of education, the common people were raised into lambs. When tigers and wolves confronted sheep, even if they were outnumbered, the sheep would always be food!"

Songtsan Gampo laughed loudly and said, "I don't know how much Xiangfu wants to capture in this hunt?"

Lu Dongzan spread out the map, and then slowly drew a circle on the map with his fingers.

"Songzhou is the gateway to Bashu, and Bashu has been known as the land of abundance since ancient times. The climate here is humid, very suitable for growing grain, and the products are abundant."

"What's even more rare is that there is also a natural barrier between the land of Bashu and the Central Plains. If we win this place, we, Tubo, will usher in a real opportunity for prosperity!"

After hearing Lu Dongzan's vision, Songtsan Gampo was so excited that he trembled all over.

Although he boasted that Tubo has no worries, the territory of Tubo is really not a good place.

That place is high and cold, and the grain output is extremely low. Only crops such as highland barley can be planted with appallingly low yields.

Even those big landlords with tens of thousands of slaves in their hands can't really talk about enjoying their lives.

The staple food they eat on weekdays is meat, and they have greasy eating habits, so the health of the Tibetan nobles is generally not good, and many of them will not live to be fifty years old.

Items used, 2 can only be said to be so-so.

Speaking of it, Songtsan Gampo is the majestic ruler of a country, and his daily life enjoyment is not as good as that of an ordinary rich family in Songzhou City.

Seeing the style of the Tang Dynasty, and looking at Tubo, it can make people feel extremely ashamed.

If the land of Bashu can really be included in the territory of Tubo, there will be a stable production base and abundant goods, supplemented by Tubo's strong military power.

Songtsan Gampo couldn't even imagine the future of Tubo.

As for not being able to defeat Tang Jun, this was not within the scope of Songtsan Gampo's consideration.

He did hear that Li Er's army was invincible.

But who is not a little war master?

You, Li Er, have never lost, and I, Songtsan Gampo, am not a vegetarian either!

Whose fist is harder, you still have to fight it in detail to know. .
