Chapter 471: Garqin Mausoleum Begging for Marriage

After the female general's cavalry left the city, she came to Garqinling and stopped three feet in front of Garqinling and lined up in an orderly manner. Then she turned over and dismounted, and walked towards Garqinling with her steps. Every time she took the step, her armor collided and made a "scary" sound.

Garqinling also walked upstairs. The two stopped when they were ten feet away and saluted.

"The Tubo envoy Garqinling." Garqinling performed the Tubo ceremony.

"Dililarna, the general of the Western Turkic Republic, defending the country." The female general pressed her right hand lightly on her left shoulder, neither humble nor arrogant, and had a strong momentum. She was the Xiaodi mentioned by Li Hao, and was also the only female general of the Western Turkic Republic. She has now been promoted to the General of the Kingdom.

After the meeting ceremony, Garqinling smiled slightly and said, "Garqinling is far away in Tubo, but he didn't know that the Western Turks were so outstanding that they gave birth to such a heroic female general. He is really ignorant."

In fact, he had long heard that there was a female general named Dililarna in the Western Turks. She was brave and good at fighting and was good at managing the army. Unfortunately, because she was a daughter, she had not been valued by the previous Khans. He had always guessed that this female general must have been taller than a man, and the kind who was big and thick should have two hundred pounds. Unexpectedly, she was born so beautiful and charming and heroic.

He was so obscene that he had really beaten up his flattery. Even if Dililarna had a strong sense of determination, he could not help but be secretly happy. However, Dililarna did not show any sign of her face and said lightly: "General Garqinling is too modest. Dililarna has already heard that the young Tubo general Garqinling is brave and good at fighting, and is a rare handsome talent in this world."

People are flattering like this, so Dililarna naturally cannot without saying that she said very calmly, because Garqinling has indeed become famous in recent years and has made considerable achievements in Tubo, both big and small. The Western Turks have long heard of him, and what Dililarna said is the truth.

The two of them praised each other and no longer delayed it. Dililarna welcomed Garqinling into the city. If it were in the Tang Dynasty, there were many etiquettes, they would definitely take Garqinling to the envoy's inn to rest first. However, the Western Turks were barbarians and Tubo was also barbarians, so there were not so many etiquettes to pay attention to. Dililarna took Garqinling directly to the Khan Palace.

When the Western Turkic Khan Ashinahelu heard that the Tubo envoys were coming, and it was Garqinling, the son of Gardongzan, had already summoned all the ministers to summon the Tubo envoys. In the palace hall, several important ministers stood on both sides.

After entering the hall, Garqinling walked to the hall to salute: "The Tubo envoy Garqinling paid homage to the Western Turkic Shaboluo Khan."

"Tubo envoys are exempted from courtesy." Asina Helu looked up and down at Garqinling and asked with a smile, "Are you Garqinling, son of Tubo's great prime minister Gardongzan?"

"Yes." Garqinling nodded slightly and responded respectfully. After all, his status in Tubo is not high. Even if he has great arrogance, he must show absolute respect to the king of a country.

Asina Helu nodded and said, "It turns out that a hero is a young man. I don't know what the envoy is going to come to our Western Turks this time."

Garqinling took out the letter of nationality and said: "Return to Shaboluo Khan, Garqinling was ordered by Tubo Zanpu this time and sent the letter of nationality, hoping that Tubo could form an alliance with the Western Turks to fight against the Tang Kingdom together."

As soon as this statement was made, the Western Turkic ministers were shocked. Although they had already guessed the purpose of the Tubo condemnation envoy, they were still surprised after hearing Gar Qinling say it in person.

Ashina Helu had no expression on his face, and he spread his hands and said, "Please read the national letter."

Garqinling launched the letter of the country and read it loudly in the palace. After reading it, the ministers frowned and pondered. Songtsen Gampo really wanted to form an alliance with them.

Ashina Helu frowned for a long time and said slowly: "Your country Zanpu wants our Western Turks to send troops to help Tuyuhun?"

"Return to Shaboluo Khan, that's exactly." Garqinling answered neither humbly nor arrogantly.

An official immediately glared at him and shouted: "Why! Tuyuhun is your neighbor of Tubo, so far away from our Western Turks. Even if the Tang Dynasty wants to send troops to attack Tuyuhun, it has nothing to do with us!"

Another veteran general also said: "Besides, I don't know if the Tang Kingdom will really send troops to attack Tuyuhun. Everything is just your Tubo's speculation."

Garqinling's face remained unchanged and said nothing more. Seeing that Garqinling had no anxiety and was even very calm, Asuna Helu asked, "Tubo envoy, can you answer the questions of the two of them?"

Garqinling smiled slightly and said, "Return to Shaboluo Khan, the Western Turks must help us Tubo and resist the Tang Dynasty."

When the Western Turkic ministers glared and frowned when they heard this, they said that the young man in front of them was really crazy, so they had to help Tubo? What a joke!

Asina Helu raised his eyebrows and asked with a sneer: "Oh? Why?"

Garqinling said: "There is a saying in the Tang Dynasty that the lips are dead and the teeth are cold. If the lips are gone, the teeth will definitely be blown by the wind. If my Tubo is destroyed by the Tang Dynasty, the next one will be the Western Turks."

The ministers were shocked when they heard this. Asuna Helu gradually frowned when he heard this. He also understood this truth, but after Garqinling's mouth spoke it, he felt a sense of threat.

At this time, Garqinling said again: "Shaboluo Khan, Li Hao erected a monument under the Tianshan Mountains and encroached on the territory of the Western Turks for thousands of miles. Did Shaboluo Khan forget this? Not to mention that the Tang Dynasty is a country of etiquette. Since the emergence of Li Hao, the Tang Dynasty no longer paid attention to etiquette in foreign military affairs. I believe this, the Khan should be able to feel it."

His eyes were staring at Asina Helu. No matter what his ministers thought, his current goal was to convince Asina Helu that the Western Turks were a country with relatively concentrated royal power. As long as Asina Helu agreed to form an alliance, things would be done.

After hesitating for a moment, Ashinahelu suddenly smiled slightly and said, "The son of Gardongzan is indeed quite eloquent. The Khan could consider the matter of alliance, but it was just a matter of sending troops. After all, this matter had nothing to do with our Western Turks..."

"It has something to do with the Western Turks." Garqinling directly interrupted Asina Helu's words and said, "Shabolu Khan, when my father led his troops to attack the Tang Dynasty, Shabolu Khan sent 80,000 troops to the border of the Tang Dynasty, intending to get a share of the pie. Although he failed to do it in the end, Shabolu Khan really thought that the Tang people didn't know? Or Shabolu Khan thought that Emperor Tang would not care about this matter?"

Ashina Helu was shocked when he heard this. He didn't expect that he even knew about this. At that time, their army was still dozens of miles away from the territory of the Tang Dynasty. After receiving the news of Gar Dongzan's defeat, he never moved forward. Moreover, the operation was very secretive. He thought no other country knew about it, but he didn't expect that Gar Qinling directly revealed it. Since Gar Qinling knew about it, it was impossible for the Tang Dynasty to be completely unaware of it.

An old general who was over 50 years old glared at the sight and shouted: "How do the Tang people care about it? We are just training troops. Why should the Tang people care about it!"

Garqinling looked at the general with a sneer and smiled, "General Yang Long, Garqinling reminds you not to tell the Tang people like this, they will be angry because they will think you are insulting their wisdom and will think you regard them as fools."

All the ministers were speechless when they heard this. What he said was really the case. Training soldiers? Haha, are you lying to fool?

The general who was over 50 years old glared at him and asked in surprise: "How do you know me? Do you know me?"

Garqinling just smiled faintly, didn't answer, and looked a little worthy of beating.

An old military general bearded beside Yang Long suddenly said, "The Tang Dynasty is a country of etiquette. Even if they know the actions of our Western Turks, as long as we, the Western Turks, have not entered their territory, they will not act on us. After all, they are not known to go to the army."

Garqinling laughed and said loudly: "This must be General Fan Hong. General Fan Hong must have heard a saying from the Han people, saying that if you want to add a crime, there is no reason to be accused of it. If the Tang people want to attack you Western Turks, how could you not find an excuse? Your Western Turks occupied the Silk Road from the Tang Kingdom to the Western Regions, which caused great obstacles to the Tang Kingdom's trade in the Western Regions. The Emperor of Tang has been thinking about you for a long time."

As soon as this was said, the ministers of the Western Turks, including Asina Helu, all their hearts trembled. Asina Helu narrowed his eyes and looked at the young Garqinling. He suddenly felt that this young man in his twenties was really amazing. He knew them well and saw many general trends very thoroughly. In fact, occupying the Silk Road has always been a heart-wrenching problem for their Western Turks. Although they had gained great benefits from it, they were worried all day long, fearing that one day the Tang Dynasty would send troops to take them over, just like the destruction of the Eastern Turks.

Seeing that they were all silent, Garqinling knew that he had already persuaded them, he immediately set out on the railway while it was hot: "In addition, Shaboluo Khan, in order to show my sincerity in forming a Tubo alliance, Garqinling is willing to become a marriage partner with Tubo."

"Hmm?" Asina Helu frowned when he heard this, "Do you want to marry Ben Khan's princess?"

Garqinling shook his head and said, "No, Shaboluo Khan, Garqinling wants to marry General Dililarna, and is willing to offer 200,000 taels of gold as a betrothal gift!"

"Wow——" As soon as this statement came out, everyone in the hall was shocked.
