Chapter 334 Discussing Tubo
Three days and one meeting is actually very good. If something happens, it can be dealt with in a timely manner without delaying the ministers and ministers in handling yamen affairs.
Doing it every day may seem very diligent, but in fact it is just like blessing, it does no good except harming others.
Li Shimin understands this truth, so Zhenguan's three-day meeting is the bottom line and will not deliberately show diligence.
If you have this kind of skill, why not spend some time with the martial arts men in the harem? Isn’t a dashing young lady more beautiful than a bunch of rough guys?
Just because you want to show your authority in front of your ministers, you drag your ministers into it, drag yourself into it, and make people fall into endless delays. What kind of dark psychology is this?
Yang Hongli, the minister of the Ministry of War, reported: "The official report of the Tibetan Zangpu Songtsan Gampo sent his minister Bu Jin Zanmangqiong to Dayangtong to appease Nie Xu and Li Mixia.
Zangmengsemagar of Yumcuo Lake."
Collapse is inevitable.
Because they lost their father when they were young, Songtsan Gampo (full name: Xibu Ye·Qi Zong Nongzan) and his sister Sai Maga had to be strong in order to support the precarious Tubo, so they had extremely tough personalities.
Li Mixia had no intention of marrying Saima, but she made trouble for Tubo and was severely punished by her brother-in-law, so she could only hold her breath and become her brother-in-law.
In the Qionglong Silver Castle, Concubine Zanmeng Xuge is Li Mixia's favorite person. She is as gentle as water, and her temperament is very different from Saima's. Looking at her from another angle, most men would also like Concubine Xuge.
Therefore, a war caused by conflicts between husband and wife is imminent.
Li Shimin glanced at it habitually and sighed slightly.
Special visit to Li Jing did not even go to court to plead for mercy when his son Li Derjian was exiled. Now he even claimed that he was ill and could not negotiate.
Li Shiji, Minister of the Ministry of War, was gradually becoming a commander, but his eyes were still unable to linger on the unfamiliar Tubo.
"I vaguely remember that Fan Zhengqing's family is quite knowledgeable about Tubo?"
There are also particularities in the title. Calling him Shaoqing is a bit loose, calling him director Jingyuan is a downgrade. The male from Huarong Jianguo County, who also received fifth-grade treatment, could not be called any more and could only use this word.
Fan Zheng left the mission: "Your Majesty, Tubo and Dayang are thousands of miles apart. After Bu Jin Zan Mang Qiong came and went, it was time to resort to force. The discord between Zan Meng Sai Maga and Nie Xu Li Misia was just the cause.
, the real reason is that one mountain cannot tolerate two...big insects."
Li Shimin felt awkward after hearing this. Why does this taboo feel so strange?
Can't you change the word?
What Fan Zheng said is true. He raised the army purely to teach his brother-in-law and brother-in-law a lesson. How free Songtsen Gampo was!
Tubo flourished from Pibo City, swallowing Gongbu, Niangbo, Dabo, Supi, and Houzang, and became a behemoth that could rival the big sheep. Why can't it embrace the big sheep who have the same roots and origins?
When the time comes, Tubo will be on the plateau, eyeing all sides, and if it succeeds, it will make plans in all directions; if it fails, it will retreat to the plateau. How happy is that?
"Then what?" Prince Li Zhi couldn't help but ask.
Fan Zheng glanced at Li Zhi: "The plateau is unified, and your Majesty's army is ruthless. He can intimidate Tibet while he is still alive, and the pressure on future generations will be great."
Who are you looking down on?
Li Zhi squinted his eyes, and his childish face showed a hint of domineering: "If he dares to come down, Datang will fight him off!"
Li Shimin's eyes showed a hint of relief, my bloodline is so awesome!
Fan Zheng smiled bitterly: "But if Tubo can come up and fight against the Tang Dynasty, can the Tang Dynasty go up and fight against the Tubo?"
It can’t be done without bragging or being slanderous.
There is a mountain in Tuyuhun called Hanwei Mountain. In addition to being insulting to the Central Plains, it also shows that most Central Plains people are not used to high altitude areas.
Of course it's not absolute, otherwise how could Princess Wencheng marry into Luoshou City?
A certain advance team in later generations climbed onto the plateau without supplies and lost nearly half of it.
Datang, are you willing to pay such a high price?
This becomes a deadlock, you can only fight back but cannot take the initiative to attack.
This was hard to accept for Datang, who was always very aggressive.
There is another point that Fan Zheng cannot make public. Tubo and Dayang have the same origin. The original ethnic group is Mon. Since the Han Dynasty, Qiang people have gradually entered the plateau and merged with each other. Where do you think the Tibetan-Qiang language family comes from?
With this advantage, when both sides are strong, it is easier for people like the White Dog Qiang to accept Tubo.
Li Shimin snorted: "Isn't the only way to reach the plateau from Tubo to Songzhou?"
If there was only this road, things would be simple. Send thousands of official slaves over, dig the road, and watch him fly over!
Hum, Tubo also has hot air balloons and gliders?
Fan Zheng stretched out three fingers.
Liu Shi, the Minister of War, immediately said: "Shaoqing Fan Zheng, please don't talk too much in front of Your Majesty. There is only Songzhou on the map of Zifang Division."
Li Zhi glared at Liu Shi fiercely.
You can resolve your personal grievances in other ways. If you jump out at this time, are you going to be a clown?
Regardless of the Crown Princess’s face, I will kick you out and make you a worshiper now!
Fan Zheng ignored Liu Shi and just waved his hand: "The map of the Fang Division of the Ministry of War should start from Ma'ergan down, pass through Gada, Daowu City, Xishan Eight Kingdoms and end at Songzhou."
"In fact, this is also the regular road from the plateau. During the Han Dynasty, tea was sold to the Yak tribe, which went directly from Yazhou to Kangding. The Yak tribe in Kangding then used this road to transfer to the Ma'ergan tribe."
"The second road, still Ma'ergan, points diagonally to Yufu City (Deqin, Yunnan) in the southeast, then leads to Tieqiao City (Tachengguan, southwest of Zhongdian, Yunnan), and enters the Yaozhou Governor's Mansion (Dayao, Chuxiong, Yunnan).
It governs Xiuzhou (Lijiang, Yunnan) and also threatens Jiannan Road."
In the fourth year of Wude, Li Ying, the pacifying ambassador, named Yaozhou because many people in the state had the surname Yao, and he was in charge of the thirty-two states.
Li Shimin thought about it for a while and found it a bit difficult.
The border line of the Tang Dynasty was long enough. Songzhou and Yaozhou were located in the north and south of Jiannan Road. It would be really difficult to defend them purely.
Li Shiji stroked his beard and approved this path: "Where is the third path?"
Fan Zheng said loudly: "The hometown of Su Pi is now Tubo Sunboru. There is Yema Post in the area, which leads to the Tanggula Pass, which is slightly easier to walk. It passes through Xinuoluo Post, Tuotuo River, passes through scattered Qiang tribes, and arrives at the sparsely populated Golmud. , then transfer to Fuqi City."
Liu Shi instinctively wanted to argue, but as he spoke, he remembered that except for Fuqi City, he had never heard of any of these place names!
Li Shimin murmured to himself: "Can Tuyuhun, whose strength is severely damaged, be able to stop the prosperous Tubo?"
Tuyuhun is also a troublesome country. It is like a naughty child. If it relaxes a little, it will immediately cause trouble with the Central Plains Dynasty, provoking both the Sui and Tang dynasties to conquer it.
Qibu Sabo Khan Murong Fuyun was proficient in the art of transfer and hid in the underworld during Yang Guang's conquest. Unexpectedly, when Li Jing and others arrived, they didn't show any martial ethics and fled into the desert, chasing after him. , and finally had to hang himself.
Li Jing and his gang of ruthless people plowed Tuyuhun all over the country, causing its strength to plummet. Now the Wudi Khan Murong Nuohebo is as obedient as his grandson.
The advantage is that Tuyuhun can no longer threaten the borders of the Tang Dynasty;
The disadvantage is that Tuyuhun's role as a barrier is greatly reduced.
