Chapter 1113: Li Shimin's negotiation!
After saying this, Li Chengqian immediately waved his hand and said: "No, let's eat first and then discuss this matter. My father is also busy right now, so why don't we ask him tomorrow, okay?"
"Tomorrow? I have something else to do tomorrow. I have an appointment!"
Li Chengfeng suddenly heard about the agreement between himself and Yuejiang Lingxue.
But Li Chengqian still shook his head and said: "No, no, my father will drink and chat with the leaders of other countries again. We were just causing trouble in the past, so we'd better not go!"
"Oh, okay! Since you don't go, then I will go!"
After saying that, Li Chengfeng turned around and left.
Li Chengqian quickly waved his hand, wanting to leave Li Chengfeng to continue eating.
But it's a pity that Li Chengfeng insisted on leaving, and Li Chengqian couldn't stop him.
Finally, Li Chengfeng, Psalm Lanyue and Li Lizhi left the Prince's Mansion together, leaving Li Chengfeng sitting on a stool eating and drinking alone.
Li Chengqian took a sip of wine, his face expressionless.
He suddenly raised his head to look at the sky, a look of desolation flashed across his eyes, and said: "Successful kings and defeated bandits, if you want to become emperor, the road will be long and long!"
…
"Emperor, this time, we come to Datang to see you, but we actually want to seek peace with you! What do you think?"
At the wine table, Li Shimin was sitting in the middle, with Fang Xuanling on the left, Du Ruhui and Wei Zheng on the right.
The Tubo side sits on the left and the Turks sit on the right.
It can be said that the leaders of the three major empires have gathered at this table.
Li Shimin touched his beard and said with a smile: "Haha, actually I have already guessed that you are here to seek peace!"
Li Shimin squinted his eyes and took a sip of wine.
The leader of Tubo praised Gan Sermon and said: "Emperor, in recent years there have been constant natural disasters in the world, and the people are in dire straits! It is already very difficult just to survive, let alone to fight? If we continue to fight like this, we will definitely lose both sides!"
"Oh? That's not necessarily true!" Li Shimin said with a smile, because he had enough confidence.
Psalm Gan preached: "Emperor, to be honest, we have now mastered the method of making iron bombs! Just imagine how many people will be killed if we start a war! Therefore, it is better to develop peacefully! From now on, we in Tibet will
Promise that within 100 years, you will never invade the Tang Dynasty again. If you violate it, you will be killed without mercy. How about that?"
Praising Gumbu, he was still trying his best to negotiate terms with Li Shimin.
After saying this, Li Shimin smiled and said: "Within one hundred years, you will not invade the Tang Dynasty? Praise Ganbu, are you looking down on me? Or are you looking down on my Xuanjia Army of the Tang Dynasty? This is simply presumptuous!"
"bump!"
Li Shimin slammed the table angrily and shouted: "Should I negotiate terms with you, or do you negotiate terms with me? Do you promise me not to invade the Tang Dynasty within a hundred years? I can destroy both of you now to avoid future troubles.
Damn it!"
Li Shimin suddenly slammed the table and became furious. He would never allow others to use the country's comfort to threaten him to negotiate?
Sure enough, Gampo also realized that he had said the wrong thing.
After all, the Tang Dynasty now is not the Tang Dynasty before.
If it were the past, Li Shimin would definitely be overjoyed, but things are different now.
Now in terms of war, the Tang Dynasty used a large number of troops and iron bombs to defeat the Tibetan army.
If this continues, Tubo will inevitably be destroyed by the Tang Dynasty.
Although the Tang Dynasty would also lose a lot, Tubo could never defeat the Tang Dynasty.
Psalm Gampo sighed and said: "Then what do you say, Emperor? I think you don't want a war to happen, which will lead to the death of countless soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, right?"
Li Shimin nodded and said: "Yes, if I didn't still have a conscience, I would let you see me? Will I give you room for negotiation?"
Li Shimin said: "Do you know why I met you? Because I just want to bring peace to the world!"
"Okay, I would like to ask, Emperor, what are your conditions for a truce?" asked the Turkic leader, Jili Khan.
Ji Li Khan, a man with a stubble on his face.
The whole person has dark skin, ferocious eyes, burly body, and a scar on his face. He looks ferocious and has sharp eyes, like a wild beast and a wolf.
Anyone who sees him at first glance will think that he is a man who is not easy to mess with.
But for such a person, his aura was still weak in front of Li Shimin, and he still couldn't compare to Li Shimin's aura.
Ji Li Khan looked at Li Shimin.
Li Shimin said: "Of course I have to negotiate terms with you before we can stop fighting!"
"I am actually doing this for the sake of world peace!"
"First, you two countries cede two-thirds of the land to us, the Tang Dynasty! The remaining one-third of the land will be your final development area. I will not destroy your country and will retain its source of water for you. But
You will also become a vassal state of our Tang Dynasty! From then on, the annual tribute of cattle and sheep shall not be less than 3,000!"
"Second, implement the county jurisdiction system. After you two surrender to the Tang Dynasty, you can still get the title of county king. This is my reward to you!"
"Third, compensate for the losses caused by this war! Otherwise, there is no need to discuss it!"
Li Shimin simply stated these three conditions.
After finishing speaking, he praised both Gumbu and Jili Khan, and their faces darkened.
Isn't this a negotiation? It's just a robber, right?
Two-thirds of the land was cut off? Do you still have to pay tribute and compensate?
"Emperor, what you say is unkind. All the benefits have been obtained by your Tang Dynasty, but what about us Tubo? What have we gained?" Psalm Gambo asked.
"I have been protected by the Tang Dynasty!"
Li Shimin said.
After hearing this, Song Zan Gampo quickly shook his head and said: "Emperor, your request is a bit excessive! You said that we can compensate you, and we can accept it, but the cession of land is absolutely not allowed!"
"Okay, Emperor, the condition I give you is! We will compensate the Tang Dynasty for the loss of one million taels of gold, and we will pay it back in three years! In the next one hundred years, we will never invade the Tang Dynasty again. This is what I can give
Finally gave in!"
Praising Gampo said.
He is now using his status as the King of Tubo to negotiate terms with Li Shimin.
Naturally, Li Shimin has matured with age. In terms of financial interests, Li Shimin has never suffered much loss.
Apart from being cheated out of some money by Li Chengfeng, who else could take away Li Shimin's money for nothing?
Li Shimin shook his head and said: "I can make concessions. I also want the land. I don't have to pay compensation! In addition, you two countries must choose to surrender to the Tang Dynasty to eliminate the worries of the Tang Dynasty. Otherwise, there is no need to discuss anything!"
"
Li Shimin considered the longer term.
He knows that agreements and negotiations can be torn up at any time.
Only strong people have the opportunity to negotiate.
It seems that a negotiation of the century is about to take place in Datang.
Li Shimin was a very domineering emperor who would not give in.
