Chaos of the Three Kingdoms Summons

Chapter 1855 Songtsan Gampo Proposes
"What do you think, if everything is true, is it Lianjin, Lianyuan, or neither?" Songtsan Gampo asked with a headache!

The confrontation between the two most powerful military groups, if you are in the middle of each other's cracks, if you don't pay attention, something big may happen, and Songtsen Gampo has to be cautious.

This is like the two cold wars in later generations, and it affects more than just the two of them.

As weak people, facing the confrontation between two strong men, even if they should have nothing to do with them, as long as they are noticed by these two strong men, they will have a wave of turmoil.And every decision you make needs to be more cautious.

As for which one to help, Songtsen Gampo was also very worried.After this choice is made, the future direction of Tubo will be completely different. Where to go, who can make up their minds at this time?
This is a very ambitious person. He hopes that his Tubo can grow to the level of a super empire. If he wants to achieve this step, he must not rest on his laurels on the plateau, which is relatively too much. It is barren and backward. In the future, once it unifies the plateau, if there is a chance to go out, it must go out.

In history, after the Anshi Rebellion, Tubo entered its heyday, successively controlled the Hexi Corridor, and once captured Chang'an.The Tang Dynasty was on the defensive, but Tubo’s prosperity did not last long. The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty used Li Mi’s plan to unite the black clothes, Nanzhao, Tianzhu, and Uyghur, so that Tubo was surrounded by enemies. The power of Tubo was greatly restricted, but it still controlled the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the Western Regions.

Therefore, don’t underestimate the ambitions of Tubo. From the period of Tang Taizong, to Tang Gaozong, Wu Zetian, Tang Xuanzong, and then to Tang Xianzong, Tang Xuanzong’s period, the struggle between Tang Dynasty and Tubo has almost never stopped. .

At the most lively time, Tang, Tubo, Turkic, and Dashi four superpowers appeared in the world at the same time, and quasi-powerful countries such as Goryeo, Khitan, Uighur, and Nanzhao appeared, and these powerful countries fell in love with each other, and it was very lively.

And if Songtsan Gampo wants to go out one day, no matter how he wants to go, the Jin army is the target he has to face. From this perspective, it seems that joining Yuanmeng is the way he should go.Moreover, it is also in line with the principle of long distance and close attack.

However, after all, Tubo at this time is still too weak compared to the Jin army. Even if Tubo is located on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and has a geographical advantage, but if it has now established such a powerful enemy as the Jin army because of the alliance with Yuan and Mongolia, it will be easy. Tsanganbu felt somewhat panicked.

Even if he has great ambitions, but the power in his hands is relatively far from enough, it never hinders his awe of the strong.

Therefore, Songtsan Gampo really didn't know what to do at this time, so he could only turn to his courtiers for help.

However, Songtsan Gampo couldn't even figure it out, how could his courtiers give him an absolutely correct answer!

"My king, from the point of view of my humble ministers, I should join the Jin Dynasty!"

"My king, from the point of view of my humble ministers, I should unite Yuan!"

"My lord, from the point of view of my humble ministers, the two should not help each other, so we need to see each other!"

A group of courtiers talked a lot, but they all had their own opinions. The key is that what they all said was quite reasonable!

These people of Songtsan Gampo are all outstanding figures in the history of Tubo, not inferior to those in the Central Plains, but this kind of question is an open question, no matter how you choose, each has its own advantages and disadvantages, and these people have their own opinions, how can it be possible Will give a unified answer?
"Ludong praises the order, the Great Jin is strong and prosperous, and His Majesty the Emperor of Jin ascended the throne for the first time. I, Tubo, should earnestly congratulate him. You can express your surrender to His Majesty the Great Jin Emperor, and make a century-old friendship between the two parties!" Song Song After pondering for a long time, Tsanganbu's originally hesitant expression became more determined.

After all, this neighbor is powerful, and it is not something that the current Tubo can contend with. Songtsan Gampo does not want to provoke the Jin army just like this, at least it is definitely not the time.

Therefore, Songtsan Gampo is still the old practice in history, and it is not a problem for the two parties to make peace, or even surrender to the strong when appropriate.

Of course, whether it is marriage or surrender, it is just an appearance. The most fundamental purpose of Songtsen Gampo is to take this opportunity to obtain the technology and culture of the Central Plains, borrow the technology and culture of the Central Plains, and change the people on the plateau. backward situation.

As for the candidate for the Jin army, it still fell on Lu Dongzan.After all, this person is quite experienced in this area.In history, Songtsan Gampo got more than one daughter-in-law back.

"Shang Jiezan listened to the order, go and contact the Yuanmeng envoy!" Songtsan Gampo immediately continued to speak.

There is no need to put all the treasures on one person so early. It is still very necessary to contact the Yuanmeng envoy. By the way, let's see what the Yuanmeng envoy is asking for and what it can bring them to Tubo!
As for the final result, after all, it still depends on which side has the greater benefit!
Furthermore, if Yuan Meng's side is rejected outright now, once Lu Dongzan's side fails, wouldn't he simply fight?

First stabilize Yuanmeng. If Lu Dongzan can return satisfactorily, the envoy of Yuanmeng can also be handed over to the Jin army to bring the two sides closer.

Comparing the two parties, Songtsan Gampo is still more willing that Lu Dongzan's trip will go smoothly. If he can get on the line of marching and get the help of the Jin army, Songtsan Gampo's next road to unify the plateau is bound to be There will be a helping hand.

On the plateau, although the ancient Tibetans had no opponent worthy of Songtsen Gampo's attention, the Qiang side was a big trouble.

Like the Qiangs in Liangzhou, the Qiangs on the plateau are also in a state of fragmentation. If the overall strength is integrated, it will naturally be extremely powerful, but no one has ever achieved this.

Although Fu Jian had hope at the beginning, Fu Jian's vision was more long-term, and he focused on the big Han. After joining Dong Zhuo's forces, he successfully realized the transformation and once became a prince of the world as a Qiang. Until I met Li Xiang and quit the stage.

When Fu Jian decided to make a fortune among the Han forces, he enlisted the most capable members of the Qiang people. This is also an important reason why the Qiang people are still divided and do not rule each other.

Today, the Qiang people on the plateau are the most powerful with three forces, represented by Yao Gezhong, Li Te, and Yang An.

These three are the biggest obstacles to Songtsen Gampo's desire to unify the plateau.
