Datang Library

Looking at his younger brother's eyes full of hatred, Li Xinzhong nodded secretly. For many days, his younger brother has been merciful. Today, he finally let go of all his grievances and accepted the family's hatred. All his efforts finally paid off. I have planned to sacrifice for many days so far.

"Report, Lord, there is a person in the city asking to see him. He claims to be an envoy sent by the Western Turks in the north."

An urgent report came from outside the door, and Li Xinzhong's eyes lit up. At this time, Tubo was being suppressed and beaten. If the Western Turks could help outside, the alliance between the two countries might have a turning point.

"Quick pass, no, the king will personally meet you."

The person from the Western Turks was still an old acquaintance of Li Xinzhong. At the time when the northern alliance of 50 countries destroyed the Tang Dynasty, they came to invite the Tubo alliance. Tubo Li Xinzhong was busy negotiating with Tianzhu and did not participate, but gave him cement to admire. Is the person of today.

"Hahahaha, your envoy came here today, it's really God's help, I don't know what Turkic Khan can teach me?"

The envoy saluted and said: "The lord is overjoyed, my Great Khan sent me this time to fight the Tang Dynasty together for the alliance of the two families."

"Oh? Really?

That is really a timely help. The Tang Dynasty is now under pressure. If the Western Turkic Khan is willing to send troops to the north to support the rescue, if you have any requests, your envoy can just ask. "

The envoy knew that the situation in Tubo was in dire straits at this time, and the king of Tubo was also in a hurry to seek medical treatment, so it was time for him to open his mouth to take advantage of the fire.

"My Khan said that both your country and ours have been oppressed by the Tang Dynasty for a long time. I have no shortage of warriors in the Turks, but I can't match the powerful weapons of the Tang Dynasty.

Tubo possesses powerful weapons that can counter the Tang Dynasty, but they are short of manpower. If the two can work together and exchange what is needed, the crisis of the Tang Dynasty will be resolved immediately.

Given time, the two of us will gradually grow stronger and erode eastward, and it is unknown to take revenge for the destruction of the Tang Dynasty..."

Without waiting for the envoy to finish speaking, Li Mingxin interrupted with a loud shout: "Enough, shameless Western Turks, take advantage of the fire?

Want gunpowder recipes and thunderbolts to strengthen yourself?You are dreaming! "

Chapter 836 Seeking the Tiger's Skin

The Western Turkic envoy ignored the angry Li Mingxin, but looked at Li Xinzhong, the ruler of Tubo, with a smile without saying a word. In the game between countries, only the ruler can truly weigh the pros and cons.

Li Xinzhong looked at the scene in front of him, waved his hand to stop Li Mingxin, and asked the Western Turkic envoy in a deep voice, "What does Western Turkic want?"

The envoy laughed and said: "As I said before, we can exchange what we need, as long as we have what Tubo has and what Western Turk doesn't have, we want it."

"Then you, Western Turk, aren't afraid of dying?"

"Hahahaha, afraid? How come? We have 30 grassland elite warriors. What can't we eat?"

Suppressing his anger, Li Xinzhong snorted coldly, "No one can stop the blade of the Tang Dynasty. Tubo and Western Turks are under the knife of the Tang Dynasty, and they are in danger. At this time, if we unite, we will have a chance to survive. Waiting to be destroyed one by one.

Is the Western Turkic Mo He Duo a mediocre master with an unknown situation? ? ? "

"The lord of the country is serious, how could it be? If my Khan is a mediocre lord, why would a villain come here today?"

"Since this is the case, then show your sincerity. Although I, Tubo, have been attacked by others, it has not yet reached the point where I can make a fool of myself. The alliance between the two countries must be of equal value." Li Xinzhong released his own price tag.

Li Mingxin said anxiously: "Brother, Anke is seeking skin from a tiger? My ancestral home of the Li family in Longxi is sticking to Longxi in the northwest, fighting against the barbarians of the grassland for generations. You flirt with the grassland today, are you worthy of your ancestors?"

"That's enough. You go back first. It's enough for my brother to take care of the military affairs. I will make my own decision and explain it to you later."

Li Mingxin looked at his stubborn elder brother with anger on his face, and walked away in a huff.

Li Mingxin, who was extremely distressed in his heart, was a little at a loss. This year, he obeyed his grandfather's words and followed Bai Fan. In the past three years, he studied hard and even did not hesitate to steal his teacher's skills. The hatred deeply buried in my heart has also been relieved.

But last year, thinking about family love, he would rather come to Tubo even if he was criticized by thousands of people. To be honest, Li Mingxin didn't do it for some great cause of revenge. The members of the Li family fought for a peaceful place to reproduce. Just like what great-grandfather Li Zheng said, it is not easy for the Li family to survive, and they can no longer die for revenge.

But after coming to Tubo for so long, although the elder brother Li Xinzhong said a lot and did everything well, Li Mingxin is not a fool. I don't agree with the elder brother's behavior and methods. He is too ruthless and unscrupulous. It is really suspicious that people who avenge their ancestors leave their teachings behind them.

Just when Li Mingxin, who was full of melancholy, was about to walk to his palace unconsciously, an old man walked up to him, and stretched out his hand to grab Li Mingxin, and pulled him into his residence.

"Seventh Uncle? Why are you always in my palace? You are..."

Before Li Mingxin could finish asking, the old man covered Li Mingxin's mouth and whispered in his ear: "Second Young Master, this old man has discovered a shocking secret. I dare not make a decision. I must come and tell you."

It turned out that this old man was the leader of the Longxi Li family who immigrated to Tubo this time. According to his seniority, he was Li Mingxin's distant seventh uncle.

Following the old man's whispered explanation, Li Mingxin's complexion became more and more ugly, until at the end it was almost gloomy, and he was about to get angry.

On the other hand, Li Xinzhong had a very happy chat with the Western Turkic envoys. After all, driven by interests, both sides have common enemies, and it is easy to find speculative topics.

"My lord, since this is the case, I will tell you bluntly, the bitter cold in Tubo is even worse than that of our Western Turks, but the lord Xiong just won a Gaodi who was born in Zhongnan Academy, so it makes people jealous.

When we came here, we said profusely that we don’t need anything else, but the production method of Hongtianlei and the treasure you used on King Qi of the Tang Dynasty last time, these two things, we can’t do without them in Western Turkic. "It was only then that the Western Turkic envoy revealed the truth.

Li Xinzhong didn't change his face, which was expected. Mo Heduo of the Western Turks was a character, and he wouldn't want these two things. If he had been himself, he would have put forward this condition.

"Hehe, after talking for a long time, it's still because of our two housekeeping treasures.

However, since it is a covenant of equality, where is the sincerity of your country?It is impossible for me to leak the top secret of Tubo to you with just one word from you. "

"Don't worry, the lord, the villain came here this time, and spent a lot of effort to bring five carts of fine steel from the Western Regions. I heard that the thunder of the Tang Dynasty consumed steel. This is our small sincerity.

In addition, when the villain came, our Khan was already mobilizing troops and horses, preparing to send troops to the frontier to deter the Tang Dynasty. As soon as Hong Tianlei is in hand, we can immediately send troops from the northwest to attack the Tang Dynasty by surprise. At that time, we will also come to encircle Wei and rescue Zhao , the crisis of Tubo was resolved. "

Hearing these two conditions, Li Xinzhong's eyes lit up, and he really came prepared. I'm afraid the Western Turks had already figured out this matter last winter, otherwise the five carts of fine steel couldn't have been transported in so unknowingly.

"Even if the Western Turks are elite soldiers, how dare they fight against the Tang Dynasty?" Li Xinzhong asked a little more.

"I didn't dare in the past, but I don't know in the future. It depends on how much Thunderbolt Tubo can give us this time. After all, even if we have Thunderbolt now, it is too late to create an enemy. It has been delayed for a long time, and Tubo may not be able to wait. "The messenger seemed to be mocking.

Where is Li Xinzhong easy to get along with?If people still don't send troops after giving things, their own country will perish, so what can we do?

"Hahahaha, your envoy is refreshing, since this is the case, why not change the conditions, we will send Thunderbolt, and you will provide raw materials.

Our Tubo country is small and lacks resources. We have the ability but no resources.

If you want Thunderbolt, you can provide resources, and we provide artificial technology, so you don’t need to waste manpower, and you can directly supply the finished product, how about it? "

"This, this, my lord, Tubo and Western Turks are not directly bordering each other now. We need to take the risk to go around the Tang Dynasty. It's fine once or twice. If there are too many times, if it is cut off by the Tang Dynasty once, wouldn't it be a waste of effort? That's it. The conditions are too procrastinated, we cannot accept it, and the current situation in the two countries does not allow us enough time to operate in this way, please learn from the Lord.”

Li Xinzhong said sincerely, this guy is really not easy to fool around, and he knew in his heart that time waits for no one. After thinking for a long time, he said: "Okay, we both take a step back, and we will show sincerity for the first cooperation. This time, I will provide you with [-] finished products, which will be used to attack Datang and rescue Tubo. I will also give you the seeds and planting methods of the poison last time.

When the two of us cooperate to block Datang and preserve our country, there will be great opportunities for cooperation afterwards. It is a certainty that we will advance and retreat together and rely on each other as lips and teeth. "

Chapter 837

The Western Turkic envoy tried hard to persuade him again and again, but Li Xinzhong was also a master who didn't see the rabbit and didn't scatter the eagle. If he hadn't been beaten to the door by Datang, he didn't want to compromise with the Western Turkic barbarians at all.

In the end, the two sides agreed to form an alliance to fight against the Tang Dynasty together in this hall. Li Xinzhong handed over the poppy seeds and [-] Hongtianlei, and agreed that if Tubo was saved this time, the production method of Hongtianlei would be the same. Send it over as a follow-up cooperation project.

The special envoy of the Western Turks went back to return, and his face was not so relaxed. In fact, the Western Turks simply took advantage of the fire and wanted to do business without money. They did not plan to save Tubo, because they were beyond their power.

The Western Turks have only 20 soldiers, and they can't stop the thunder of the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, Chen Bing's frontier and so on are all lies, but the secret recipe of the thunder has not been obtained this time. A difficult problem for the Turks.

After sending off the Western Turkic envoys, Li Xinzhong didn't have time to explain much to his younger brother Li Mingxin, because the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were extremely fast, and they were probably attacking non-stop all day long, so they had to come up with a plan to stop them.
