Great Warriors of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 1032

Li Mixia, king of Shangshung in the northern Tibetan plateau, just received a letter from Yalong in the Tubo Mountains. The letter was written by his father-in-law, Nangri Lunzan.

In the vaulted silver castle, Li Mixia looked at the letter, and the more he read it, the more annoyed he became.

The letter was written in Shang Zhungwen, but the content made him extremely angry.Nangri Lunzan told him that he had led his troops north to help Tuyuhun resist the invasion of the Qin people in the Central Plains, but because of the large number of Qin soldiers and the strength of the Tuyuhun people, they were cowardly and unable to surrender, so they had to withdraw their troops.

After the Qin army captured the land of Tuyuhun, it threatened Tubo in every possible way.After they heard about the beauty of the Tubo princess Saimaga, they sent envoys to ask the princess to marry the emperor of Qin, otherwise they would send a large army to conquer Tubo.

Nangri Lunzan said that he was very helpless. The Qin army was strong and powerful. In order to prevent Tubo from being attacked, he could only be wronged and agreed to the rude request of Luo Cheng, the emperor of the Great Qin.

Now that Daqin's mission is about to arrive at Tubo King Du Yalong, Nangri Lunzan regretfully told Li Mixia that although he valued Li Mixia's talent and heroism more, he had to abandon his original engagement and marry the princess to her. Da Qin, to appease Qin Huang's anger.

The Nangri Lunzan mentioned in this letter was helpless and wronged, and he described him as the arrogant and rude princess of the Qin people who took the initiative to marry him.

As the overlord of the entire plateau, the marriage between Zhang Zhung Wang Li Mixia and Tubo was actually not very willing at the beginning. Zhang Zhuong was more vigilant about Tubo.

Zhang Zhung once almost unified the entire plateau. At that time, the Tubo people were just a small state city in the Yalong River Valley, but the heroes did not mention the courage of the past. Today, Zhang Zhung only maintains the area of ​​​​the northern Tibetan Plateau, but But the Tubo people have become so powerful that they have occupied the whole U-Tsang, and even conquered Subi, and even the Qiangs in the east have surrendered.

Faced with Tubo's initiative to marry, Xiangxiong finally accepted reluctantly.

It was originally planned that Li Mixia, the king of Shangshung, would marry Princess Saimaga into the Silver Fortress of the capital of King Xiangxiong this year, but now such a letter came.

"What do you mean by Tubo people?"

The Tubo envoy said helplessly, "It wasn't my family's Zanpu who repeated it, it was the Qin people who were tyrannical. My family's Zanpu was afraid of the Qin people, and I didn't want the flames of war to burn to the plateau. When we arrived at Xiangxiong, the people of Qin said that they would send troops to the plateau to destroy Tubo and Zhangxiong together. My family Zanpu also did not want to bring disasters to the west and endanger Zhangxiong. I hope King Xiangxiong can forgive me. My family, Zanpu, is willing to marry a different princess to marry Xiangxiong, and to spend more time with treasures, cattle and sheep to make amends."

Li Mixia's face darkened.

"Nangri Lunzan only has one biological daughter. Where can he get another princess for this king? Is he going to find a random Tibetan woman to pretend to be a princess? My king didn't agree with the marriage at the beginning, but you Jia Zanpu insisted on marrying, I agreed and paid the dowry, but now you want to go back on your word, how can this be so? Do you really think I, Xiangxiong, are easy to bully?"

"My lord, you can't blame us Tubo, if you want to blame, you can only blame the Qin people for being rude and taking the princess away."

Xiangxiong King Li Mixia has only been on the throne for a few years, and he is very young. As a young man, he is always quite extreme.

Tubo first took the initiative to marry the princess, but now he backs off, which makes Li Mixia feel very rude.

"Isn't your Zanpu amazing, why is even the Qin country afraid of this?"

"The people of Qin are strong. They have many soldiers and many generals. They have millions of soldiers and tens of millions of people. My Tubo is only sixty Dongdai."

After all, the Tubo envoy finally said, "It's a pity that Tuyuhun has been defeated, and the Western Turks have also been defeated back to the Western Regions. I'm afraid that even if my family and relatives marry the princess, it may not really be able to get the Qin people's truce. Maybe soon, The Qin people will invade the plateau, and not only Tubo will suffer, but perhaps Xiangxiong will also be doomed."

"The land of Tuyuhun is now divided into four counties by the Qin people, and Xiangxiong is also to the south of the newly seized land."

Li Mixia gritted her teeth. To him, it is really unreasonable for him to stay on the plateau as his Xiangxiong King, but the people of Qin stepped in and insisted on taking his fiancée away.

Not to mention, what the Tubo envoy said was also correct. After the Qin people captured Tuyuhun, the Qiemo and Shanshan prefectures they established in the west of Tuyuhun were already directly bordering on the northern border of the Xiangxiong Kingdom.

Xiangxiong is also called Yangtong in the Central Plains. Although it is located in the northern Tibetan Plateau, its unique geographical location makes it connect with the countries of the Western Regions and becomes an important stop on the Silk Road.

Xiangxiong is no longer the mighty time that destroyed the Eighteen Qiang Kingdoms, but after all, Zhangxiong has a long history. As a country that believes in the Mipeng bird, Zhangxiong felt the threat of the Qin people's westward advance.

"Didn't your Zanpu think of rebelling?"

"If I, Tubo, rebel against the people of Qin, will your majesty be willing to send troops to help?"

Li Mixia didn't answer right away.

The Tubo envoy continued, "Before my family sent troops to the north, the reason for our failure was that the Tuyuhun people were weak and incompetent, and there were traitors. If we, Tubo, Xiangxiong and Western Turks, can unite and recruit the countries of the Western Regions and the Qiangs of the Southwest As long as we fight against the Qin people in the Western Regions and on the plateau, and defend and counterattack, the Qin people will have logistical difficulties and it is difficult to send out a large army. We have a great chance of defeating them. "

"If the Qin army is defeated, Tubo is willing to share the land of Tuyuhun equally with Xiangxiong. Xiangxiong will get Shanshan and Qiemo, and Tubo will get Heyuan and Xihai. How about it?"

Li Mixia pondered.

Yalong City.

Nangri Lunzan saw the messenger who came back from the Dome Silver Fort.

"Li Mixia dare not send troops?"

"He said to think about it."

"Trash, how can there be such an incompetent king in Xiangxiong Kingdom, who has no blood at all." Nang Ri Lunzan was disappointed, thinking that he could arouse a little bit of blood in Li Mixia with his daughter.Then when the Qin envoy arrived, the Xiangxiong sent by Li Yinxia assassinated the Qin envoy and snatched the Tubo princess.

In this way, when the time comes, Lunzan will be able to pull Xiangxiong into the Tubo chariot and fight against the Qin people together.

It not only relieves worries about the future, but also increases strength to prevent the Qin people from attacking in the future.

But who would have thought that Li Mixia would be so cowardly that the people of Qin robbed her fiancée, and she didn't even have the blood to snatch her back.

"Zap, what do we do now?"

Nang Rilun gave a long sigh.

"Forget it, since Li Mixia is so cowardly and incompetent, it's better to send someone to meet the Qin delegation and let the princess prepare to enter Qin."

"Zamp?"

"Needless to say, Li Mixia is such a waste, since he is so cowardly and incompetent, then we will first make peace with Qin, then we will try our best to destroy Xiangxiong, and then conquer the Qiangs. When the time is right, I, Tubo, will send troops again Go north and get back some face from the Qin people!"
