Li Chengqian wiped out the four kingdoms in a row, and the Eastern Turks and Fusang were even wiped out by his exterminated clans.

Except for Gaochang, the soldiers of the other three countries did not take a single prisoner, and they were all slaughtered by him.

More than one million soldiers from various countries died at his hands.

And what he relied on was a white-robed army with no more than [-] people.

The general of the king's division should not be imprisoned, and thousands of troops and horses should avoid white robes.

This is no longer a legend.

Ba Mutong knew in his heart that the reason why Songtsan Gampo was eager for success was that he wanted to take down Tuyuhun with lightning speed and take all the territory west of Datang into his hands.

It is to complete a high degree of integration as soon as possible, and then develop rapidly.

The growth rate of Datang, the oriental dragon, is really too fast.

So fast that they can't hold back.

Ba Mutong hastily clasped his hands and said, "So it's His Royal Highness, I'm sorry for your disrespect."

"I think there must be some misunderstanding. My lord just wants to form an eternal alliance with Datang, and has no other ideas."

He didn't expect that the proposal of marriage would cause such a big reaction.

"Hmph." Changsun Wuji snorted coldly: "That's easy to say, let Songtsan Gampo marry ten or eight princesses and come to my Tang Dynasty."

Ba Mutong said dumbly: "This..."

Chapter 337 Preparing to Build the Rock Army

at this time……

Ba Mutong has already felt the strength of Datang.

Whether it's Li Shimin, Li Chengqian, or the Chinese and military officials of the court.

That contempt was by no means feigned.

It was only then that Ba Mutong saw that neither Tuyuhun nor Tubo had been able to catch Li Shimin's attention from the beginning to the end.

Before coming to Datang, he had discussed with Songtsen Gampo.

Songtsen Gampo swept across the Qiang tribes within one year of his tenure, supported hundreds of thousands of troops, and established a highly integrated plateau regime.

Looking at this kind of strength, it has always been a powerful lord who dominates one side.

so powerful.

How can they have a certain right to speak in diplomacy.

Due to the geographical characteristics of Tubo, it is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

The armies of other countries let alone attack Tubo, the altitude sickness alone is not something they can easily resist...

However, they underestimated the imperial power and national prestige of Datang.

"Since His Majesty the Great Emperor has no intention of making peace with me, Tubo, I ask His Majesty the Great Emperor to forgive the emissary's previous rudeness."

Now that things have happened, Ba Mutong has no choice but to admit his weakness and rein in the precipice.

He could see that the Chinese and military officials of this court took the matter of marrying a princess very seriously.

Especially Li Chengqian.

If he continues to chatter.

Then Li Chengqian was probably going to help the Tuyuhun soldiers attack Tubo.

Changsun Wuji and Li Chengqian had given Ba Mutong enough warnings, and Li Shimin didn't say much.

However, Changsun Wuji's extreme reaction made him a little puzzled.

It's like marrying Changsun Wuji's daughter to Tubo.

"Okay." Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "I know your intention of coming, I accept the congratulatory gift, and don't mention the matter of marriage in the future, otherwise my soldiers from the Tang Dynasty will definitely swing at your Tubo city. "

The words are full of majesty and domineering.

Li Shimin issued an order to expel the guests, but Ba Mutong didn't want to waste any more words.

Although Li Shimin and Li Chengqian have sharp words, they are not ordinary people.

Li Shimin received the congratulatory gift from Tubo.

It can be inferred from their words that Datang will not reinforce Tuyuhun.

Otherwise, Li Shimin directly said that Songtsan Gampo would have to weigh it up too, because Tuyuhun couldn't move.

But he understood Li Shimin's deep meaning, he was putting pressure on Tubo.

Ba Mutong stepped forward and saluted: "Yes, His Majesty the Great Emperor, the envoy will retire."

Under the eyes of the crowd.

Ba Mutong left in such a dismal manner.

But his mood was not as bad as expected.

No marriage, but at least one task was accomplished.

Tubo can safely and boldly attack Tuyuhun.

With Tuyuhun, the goal of Songtsan Gampo in the first stage was achieved.

As for the marriage, when Tubo has enough strength,

Li Shimin had to agree if he agreed, and he had to agree if he didn't agree.

lean less...

Ba Mutong withdrew from Tai Chi Hall.

Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian: "Chengqian, what do you think of Tubo?"

Li Chengqian pondered: "Songtsan Gampo has great ambitions, and he is indeed a hero in the world. Unifying the Qiang tribes and attacking Tuyuhun is only his first step, but it will definitely not be his last step."

"If in the future when our Great Tang Dynasty is in decline, this person will surely fall into trouble, take the opportunity to capture our territory, and take our people captive."

The words fall...

There was an uproar in the hall.

"Ah? Is this Songtsan Gampo also a man with wolfish ambitions? Then my Great Tang Wan can't let him develop and grow."

"If this is the case, we should not drive away the envoys of Tuyuhun, but should send troops to assist Tuyuhun and limit the development of Tubo."

"I've heard about Songtsan Gampo for a long time. Sooner or later, he will be my great enemy in Tang Dynasty."

Civil and military officials talked about it in the court.

Yu Chigong stood up and said: "His Royal Highness, if this is the case, we can't just watch Tubo eliminate Tuyuhun and grow stronger."

He is a master who fears the world will not be chaotic.

Yu Chigong is most afraid of being idle, and it is best to fight when there is a battle.

"That's right, the Tubo envoy was so arrogant when he first came in!"

"I still want to marry my princess of the Tang Dynasty, but Songtsan Gampo obviously didn't pay attention to me." Chai Shao echoed from the side.

Li Shimin frowned: "Chengqian, what is the purpose of your opposition to sending troops to aid Tuyuhun?"

"Since Songtsan Gampo has the power of a hero, we must kill him in the cradle."

Li Chengqian's operation made everyone incomprehensible.

He said indifferently: "The Tubo Kingdom is a kingdom built on a plateau, and its geographical location is very special."

"After Songtsan Gampo unified Tubo, he moved the capital to Luoxiecheng."

"The hinterland of Tubo is in the interior of the plateau. When we get there, my soldiers from the Tang Dynasty, not to mention fighting, even have difficulty breathing."

"The weather there is gloomy and cold, and there is a shortage of food. They don't have enough strength and sufficient food supplies. They are as strong as my white-robed army, and they can only exert half of their combat power."

After the words fell, everyone understood his deep meaning.

Although Li Chengqian is tough, he is not a reckless man.

If he fights, he will crush the enemy to ashes, and will never give them the slightest chance to stand up.

If there is no absolute certainty, Li Chengqian will definitely not let the Tang soldiers sacrifice in vain.

Li Jing stepped forward and cupped his hands, "His Royal Highness is right."

"If there is a battle between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo sooner or later, the most important thing we should do is to defend the southwest frontier and build an iron-blooded army for the expedition to the plateau."

"If you don't move, you will be done, and if you move, you will hit Huanglong with the momentum of thunder."

Hearing this, Li Shimin nodded: "What Chengqian and Yaoshi said is very reasonable."

"Although Tubo is strong, after attacking Tuyuhun, it will definitely hurt its muscles and bones."

"In two years, you will not dare to invade the border of our Great Tang."

"And we need to pull up an elite army capable of protracted warfare on the plateau during this period of time."

"Pharmacist, Chengqian, you two, who is willing to take on this important task."

Li Jing didn't speak, but looked at Li Chengqian.

First came the White Robe Army, and then Mo Daowei.

Although Li Jing bears the reputation of being the military god of the Tang Dynasty, he also appears to be overshadowed in front of him.

Li Chengqian stepped forward and said: "This army should be trained by my ministers. I have some ideas about fighting on the plateau."

After the words fell, Li Jing on the side was obviously relieved.

If this burden is on him, he may not be able to complete it.

"Okay." Li Shimin said happily: "All the troops of my Tang Dynasty, you can choose."

"Be sure to establish the army establishment in the shortest possible time."

Seeing his son so upbeat, Li Shimin was very happy.

Let's go early.

Li Chengqian went to the White Robe Army.

Let Wang Xuance and Luo Tong go to the southwest frontier to select soldiers from the various armies in the frontier.

Inland soldiers are too weak to adapt to the plateau, and the time and cost invested in training is too high.

Li Chengqian didn't want to waste too much time.

The soldiers in the southwestern frontier are different. They are more adaptable to the plateau than the inland soldiers.

Li Chengqian has inherited "Meng De's New Book" and "Sun Wu's Art of War", and he is well versed in the way of using troops.

He can set up an elite division suitable for plateau operations in the shortest possible time.

Call the Rock Army.

Enrich the combat system of the Tang army.

"PS: The heroine will appear in the next chapter!"

Chapter 338

within a day.

Tuyuhun and Tubo envoys left Chang'an one after another.

Since the envoy left Datang.

The war between the two countries has officially begun.

But all of this has nothing to do with Li Chengqian.

in the Tang Dynasty.
