In his view, it is not impossible for the entire continent to fall into Li Chengqian's hands.

If you don't think of a way to protect yourself and Tuyuhun now, then when the Tang army comes to the city, it will be the day when Tuyuhun falls.

Boom!Boom...

Li Chengqian didn't answer, and tapped the table lightly with his fingers.

moment……

Li Chengqian said slowly: "You little Khan Tuyuhun, why do you want to join my subordinates? Is Tuyuhun no longer a place for you?"

Murong Bai cupped his hands and said: "To tell you the truth, His Royal Highness, although I am the little Khan of Tuyuhun and the eldest son of the Murong family, my situation in Tuyuhun is not very good. If His Royal Highness hadn't defeated the Li Huanlin Alliance, my little Khan The position has long been taken away."

There was a bit of helplessness and bitterness in the words.

Li Chengqian had no sympathy when he heard the words, "You can't even keep your own little Khan, how can I believe in your ability? You want Bengong to help you win the position of Tuyuhun Khan? Even if I help you You won the position of Khan, can you hold it back?"

Asked three times in a row, loud and clear.

heard...

Murong Bai's complexion darkened, Li Chengqian's words were really direct, seemingly in a soft voice but sharp to the point.

It would be a big mistake to try to show mercy in front of him.

If there is no excellence or a certificate that can attract him, it will be even more difficult to join Li Chengqian's command.

Murong Bai responded: "His Royal Highness, I, Murong Bai, have fallen to this end and I admit my incompetence."

"One: That is, I was too benevolent and not iron-blooded enough. I was devoted to spit out the country, but I didn't pay attention to winning over the powerful officials in the court. I was to blame for this end."

"Second: I have Han blood, not pure Xianbei. Although the Great Khan tried his best to keep me, I have a natural disadvantage in the court."

"For people who are not of my race, their hearts must be different, Your Highness, you know that who can accept a mixed-race person sweating profusely, no matter how outstanding my ability is, they will try their best to drive me out of the court, but for my sake I have to do this for the sake of the people of Tuyuhun, and Tuyuhun can only perish in their hands."

Murong Bai told Li Chengqian, this time it comes with a lot of loyalty.

However, Li Chengqian responded coldly: "I don't care what happened to you Murong Bai. I'm not interested in whether Tuyuhun survives or dies. Tell me something that can impress me. After all, Tuyuhun is just me. It's just a piece of meat near Gong's mouth, you can take it with you."

Li Chengqian is not the Holy Mother, and he has no leisure and elegance to sympathize with the suffering of the prince of the enemy country. All he cares about is Datang.

"Loyalty!" Murong Bai looked at Li Chengqian with firm eyes and decisive words, "I can guarantee my loyalty to His Highness, and I can guarantee that Tuyuhun will become a sharp sword in His Highness's hands!"

Chapter 393 Li Chengqian's Thoughts

Murong Bai is also a smart person.

Who is Li Chengqian, the prince of the Tang Dynasty, the prince of the empire, gold and silver treasures, status and rights, he lacks nothing, and he lacks nothing.

He is a true hero of the time, unparalleled in the world.

Even if Murong Bai dedicated the entire Tuyuhun to Li Chengqian, he might not be tempted.

Therefore, only loyalty is what Li Chengqian needs most. Datang has laid down more and more territories and needs more and more talents.

If Murong Bai led Tuyuhun to defect to Datang, and became Li Chengqian's right-hand man, managing the plateau area for him, this life would be enough.

After all, judging from the current trend, none of the surrounding countries are Li Chengqian's opponents.

Although many countries have reached offensive and defensive alliances to advance and retreat together, in case Li Chengqian really leads his army to attack one day.

But Murong Bai knows in his heart that there is no solid ally in this world, and the only one he can trust is himself.

He knew that for Li Chengqian now, sincerity was the most important thing, and all the hype and supernatural skills were useless.

The words fall...

Li Chengqian nodded in satisfaction, this kid Murong Bai has some brains, he has already started his career, and he has begun to be interested.

Li Chengqian said slowly: "Continue talking."

Murong Bai clasped his hands and continued: "Your Highness, I know that your blind extermination of the family is not what His Highness wants, it is just targeting some inhumane animal races."

"Both Tuyuhun and Tubo are plateau areas, both of which are bitterly cold places. The terrain is complex and there are many races. The situation is much more difficult than that of the plains. The general soldiers can't even adapt to the climate, not to mention fighting, but our Tuyuhun soldiers are different. "

"We have adapted to the climate in the plateau region, and we can fight hard and bitter battles. If His Royal Highness can help me win the throne of Tuyuhun Great Khan, I will lead Tuyuhun to the Tang Dynasty and help His Royal Highness take care of the government affairs in the plateau area. .”

"Although I am not talented, Tuyuhun is second to none in handling government affairs."

After Murong Bai finished speaking, he stared at Li Chengqian closely, his eyes full of hope.

Li Chengqian nodded lightly.

Murong Bai's words touched Li Chengqian's heart, he had indeed considered this matter.

After this battle, Li Chengqian decided to take the initiative to attack, and first included the surrounding small countries into the territory of the Tang Dynasty.

However, Datang's talents are really in short supply, and Li Chengqian is afraid that the speed of expansion will not keep up with the speed of development, if that is not worth the loss.

What Murong Bai said is right, after all, he can't go everywhere to exterminate his family and bloody massacres, the development of the Tang Dynasty still needs to be diversified, let a hundred flowers bloom, and a hundred schools of thought contend.

As long as the general and political power is firmly in your own hands, it will be fine.

Especially in Tubo, it is definitely necessary to fight, but the terrain and climate are thorny problems.

Li Chengqian said indifferently: "Empty words have no proof, how can you guarantee your loyalty to this palace?"

Murong Bai said sincerely: "I am willing to hand over the military power, I am willing to hand over all the military power of Tuyuhun, Your Highness can establish a Dufu Mansion in Tuyuhun, and send a governor to take charge of the military power, Your Highness can mix and match the Han army and Tuyuhun soldiers to defeat the Tuyuhun army. Dispersed and reorganized, within three years, no one except Your Highness mobilized the Tuyuhun army."

"Furthermore, not to mention that after Tuyuhun joins the Tang Dynasty, the people will stay away from the flames of war and live and work in peace and contentment. Even if someone makes a mistake, His Royal Highness will not rub the sand in his eyes."

For the sake of his own ruling power and the lives of the people of Tuyuhun, Murong Bai had already thought about it. Now it is not Li Shimin, let alone Murong Fuyun, but the one in front of him, Prince Li Chengqian of the Tang Dynasty.

As long as he nodded, everything was easy to talk about, so he not only showed sincerity, but also solved Li Chengqian's worries.

Li Chengqian thought for a moment.

Now is indeed not a good time to attack Tuyuhun and Tubo. His white-robed army has suffered heavy losses after this battle, and it will take half a year to warm up.

And he was very interested in what Murong Bai said.

If he had obtained the military power of Tuyuhun and used the Tuyuhun soldiers as the vanguard to cooperate with the White Robe Army and the Modao Army, then it would not be difficult to capture Tubo.

If he commanded the Tuyuhun soldiers once, he was confident that he would subdue this army directly. If Murong Bai could submit to him, it would indeed be beneficial to him.

At least someone took care of the politics in the plateau area.

Li Chengqian said lightly: "You go down first, I will tell you after I think about it."

Although he has generally accepted Murong Bai's surrender, there are still many details that need to be considered.

If he wanted to help Murong Bai win the position of Great Khan without bloodshed, Li Chengqian had to go to Tuyuhun himself, after all Tuyuhun not only had Murong Fuyun but also his other sons.

The environment is extremely complex.

Soon...

Wang Xuance and Luo Tong were summoned by Li Chengqian.

The two entered the room and said in unison: "See His Royal Highness the Prince."

Li Chengqian waved his hand, "Excuse me, sit down."

The two responded, "Thank you, Your Royal Highness."

Then sat down.

Immediately after...

Li Chengqian said: "Well, the recruiting is going smoothly. You know the situation of Tang, Tuyuhun and Tubo very well. Sooner or later, there will be a battle between them."

"Tubo and Tuyuhun are located on the plateau, the climate is extremely cold, and the terrain is complex without complete preparations. We cannot attack."

heard...

The two looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly.

Wang Xuance responded: "His Royal Highness, the recruiting this time is indeed not very smooth. For frontier soldiers, the foundation for fighting on the plateau is still too weak."

"Luo Tong and I quietly crossed the border and entered the border between Tuyuhun and Tubo. Tuyuhun was better, but when we arrived at the Tubo Plateau, there was no one in the area, and there was no one in the area. Not to mention fighting, even breathing was very difficult."

"Furthermore, the Tibetan army is best at plateau warfare is sneak attack. They are as fierce as hungry wolves in the plateau area, but if our Tang army reaches the plateau, they will become toothless tigers. Although they have momentum, they are by no means opponents of wolves. "

"If it's training, it won't take three to five years to adapt to the climate of the plateau area, and we need accurate topographic maps of Tubo, so that we can be sure to annihilate Tubo in one fell swoop."

"The last general is incompetent and has failed the trust of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Speaking of this, the two of them looked a little ugly, with self-blame on their faces.

But Li Chengqian said indifferently: "It's okay, this matter is not easy to accomplish overnight. The reason why Tubo dares to be so unscrupulous is because of their natural geographical advantages. The capital of Tubo, Luoxie City, is located inside the plateau. You may not be able to find it if you look for it.”

Li Chengqian thought this matter was too simple, if so, he would have to consider Murong Bai's surrender, after all, he is a hundred thousand soldiers who are good at fighting on plateaus.

If it is used properly, Li Chengqian is confident that he can take down Tubo with these [-] troops.

Chapter 394

Li Chengqian looked at the two and continued: "What do you think if Tuyuhun soldiers are used to attack Tubo?"

Wang Xuance was stunned for a moment, and asked in doubt: "Tuyuhun general?"

He really had never thought about this, and Luo Tong beside him also had a confused look on his face.

Li Chengqian said bluntly: "Just now that Murong Bai was the little khan of Tuyuhun, but his situation in Tuyuhun was not good, but he has a heart of worrying about the country and the people. He intends to lead Tuyuhun into the Tang Dynasty, provided that I help He gets the throne of the Great Khan."

"If it goes well, Murong Bai will hand over the general power, and I can use this [-] army to attack Tubo. At that time, all the western regions of the Tang Dynasty will be merged into our territory of the Tang Dynasty, and our power will be one step closer."

The words fall...

Both of them showed joyful expressions.

If so, it is definitely a good thing for Datang.

Although Songtsan Gampo did not directly participate in this matter, his actions have violated the bottom line of Datang.

If it wasn't for Li Chengqian's efforts to turn the tide and break through Li Huanlin's coalition forces with lightning speed, what kind of result would be in the end is really unimaginable.

Moreover, it is self-evident what kind of conditions Li Huanlin offered to persuade the Tubo army in front of the Tuyuhun border.

He must have promised the land of the Tang Dynasty to Songtsen Gampo, otherwise he would never have retired.

For this kind of person, Li Chengqian has no reason to let him go.

After being overjoyed, Wang Xuance suddenly frowned, "That's good, but His Royal Highness is sure that Murong Bai will sincerely surrender?"

"Besides, if you want to help Murong Bai get the position of Great Khan, it's not easy. Someone needs to go to Tuyuhun to manipulate the matter. First, we need to find out the internal situation of Tuyuhun and investigate Murong Bai's details. Only in this way can we conclude the matter. Is it feasible."

Wang Xuance thought carefully and expressed his worries.

Li Chengqian responded: "Xuance is right, this is exactly what I think, so I have an important matter for you to do."

Wang Xuance got up and cupped his hands, saying: "Your Highness the Crown Prince has told you that the end will go through fire and water, and I will not hesitate to do so."

Li Chengqian said indifferently: "I want to send you to Fuqi City, the capital of Tuyuhun, to supervise this matter, and to explore the feasibility of this matter for my palace."

Li Chengqian understood his ability, he was a ruthless person who destroyed the Jieri Kingdom by himself, so if he was entrusted to handle this matter, he would definitely handle it clearly.

Wang Xuance cupped his hands and said: "The last general takes orders, and he will definitely live up to His Highness the Crown Prince's entrustment."

The next morning.

Li Chengqian led his army back to Chang'an City.

He left a message to Murong Bai, telling Murong Bai to vomit directly to Yuhun. In order for him to fight for the right to speak in Tuyuhun, Li Chengqian did not open his mouth like a lion, but only symbolically asked Tuyuhun to pay compensation.

After all, it is impossible not to ask for any compensation.

If Murong Bai uses this matter properly, it will definitely help him improve Tuyuhun's status.

After all, the current Li Chengqian is a thigh. If anyone hugs his thigh, he will be able to skyrocket ninety thousand miles.

When Murong Bai received Li Chengqian's message, he was overjoyed and rushed back to Tuyuhun without any delay.

He also has to start planning for the future. After the half-year agreement with Li Chengqian is over, he is bound to win the position of Tuyuhun Great Khan.

Chang'an City...

Tai Chi Hall...

Li Shimin looked at all the military officials in North Korea and Chinese, his spirits were high, and the joy had been on his face for an unknown number of days.

Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling and others in the court hall were also happy.

Li Huanlin was beheaded, the Yizhou army surrendered, and the Tang land returned to its territory.
