The most powerful emperor grandson of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 388 The army exchanges food

In fact, both Songtsen Gampo and Lu Dongtsen are a little confused now. They can't figure out whether what Li Xiang is saying is true or false. But one thing is true, that is, Li Xiang definitely wants to leave here early, but if Without food, it would be difficult for them to get through this difficulty, so Songtsen Gampo was no longer so reserved, gritted his teeth and stood in front of Li Xiang.

Amidst everyone's horror, Songtsen Gampo actually bent down to Li Xiang. You must know that Songtsen Gampo is the king of Tubo and is the king of thousands of kilometers around. How could he bend to others, especially The other party's status is not as good as his. Even if Li Shimin came here, both parties would be equal, but now he is bending over to Li Xiang.

Li Xiang deliberately paused for two seconds. Although these two seconds were short, it was actually a clear distinction. Your King of Tubo bent down to me, which means that he is like the Tang Dynasty. Waist, this matter will definitely spread in the future, which means that you Tubo and our Tang Dynasty are not on the same level.

"What do you mean, Zamp? Get up quickly."

Li Xiang said in horror, but his movements were not fast.

"I would also like to ask Your Highness to lend a helping hand. We, Tubo, are at the last moment. If there is no food, we will not be able to survive this winter. Your Highness, seeing that you and I have become old friends at first sight, I hope that Your Highness can provide us with something." By approving the grain, Tubo and the Tang Dynasty will become brotherly countries in the future. If anything happens to the Tang Dynasty, I, Tubo, will immediately be the vanguard."

Songtsen Gampo's words made many people look shameless, but Li Xiang admired this guy in his heart. He was able to bend and stretch things. This is the material for a king. If he just hangs on and never does business, Then it will probably be too late by the time you regret it.

Many old nobles are relatively conservative. After seeing Songtsen Gampo's actions, they felt that this guy was a bit embarrassed. But think about it, if there is no food in winter, it will be difficult for them to survive the difficulties, so these people also I understand Songtsen Gampo’s thoughts...

In the eyes of others, the conditions stated by Songtsen Gampo were quite favorable, and he even meant to regard the Tang Dynasty as the suzerain state. Of course, this was just a trend and did not have any substantive conditions, so of course Li Xiang I won't agree. You just learned some verbal things. If we are fooled by you like this, then we are not worthy of being the emperor's grandson of the Tang Dynasty.

"Zanpu is really giving me a hard time. I am not that strong in the Tang Dynasty, and it is impossible to change my grandfather's mind. I can only persuade him from the side. Now the Tang Dynasty has mobilized 20 elite troops to conquer Goguryeo. It must be Goguryeo." We have done something excessive, otherwise our Tang Dynasty is actually very peace-loving, so I really can't help with the matter of food and grass."

Li Xiang is also very good at evading it. Although we have all the power in the Tang Dynasty, in the end we are only the third figure. If it is someone else, then I can help you and let him change his own at any time. Will, but the question is whether it was the emperor of the Tang Dynasty or our grandfather who issued this order. Neither emotion nor reason can change it.What's more, what you said, if something happens to Datang, you will serve as pawns for Datang. Is this just pawns?If this is the case, then the kingdom of brothers between us is just a word of mouth and cannot be true. We are not so easy to fool, not to mention the courtiers of the Tang Dynasty are not so easy to fool.

"Luhatai..."

Lu Dongzan also understood that Li Xiang was not letting go of rabbits. Ying immediately called out his nephew. This man was also a top figure among the younger generation of nobles. If there were no sacrifices, I am afraid that Li Xiang would definitely You won't be able to send food up. At first, you only needed a certain amount of money, but now you still need political conditions. Who told you that Tubo would not be able to use it?
"Your Highness, this is my eldest brother's only son, and he is also the leader of the younger generation in Tubo. He has always admired the culture of the Tang Dynasty. Why not let him follow Your Highness to study in Chang'an. At the same time, he also has three thousand elites under his command. Let him take this 3000 people followed the Tang Dynasty to conquer Goguryeo."

Lu Dongzan's heart was bleeding when he said this. His nephew is not an ordinary person. He has been training him for a long time. He can also be regarded as his spokesperson in the army. The most important thing is that the 3000 people under his command have super If the high combat effectiveness is used in the war of the Tang Dynasty, it will be a real loss.

But now he has no other choice but to ask his nephew to work for the Tang Dynasty. Only in this way can he get some food in the Tang Dynasty. Only these food can support him. If he doesn't do this, he will not be able to survive. After this winter, maybe he is no longer on the throne.

Li Xiang did not expect Songtsan Gambo to spend so much money. To be honest, what Songtsan Gambo did has exceeded Li Xiang's expectations. Of course, the price of food must be whatever it is. Now that Songtsen Gampo has taken out his chips, Li Xiang can no longer continue to play.

You must pursue the highest value in everything you do, but the highest value must also be certain. If you go too far, the other party is likely to quit in spite of the difficulties. At that time, even if you want to quit If you take one step, you may also lose your best opportunity.

"Zan Pu really treats me sincerely, and I am not that kind of villain. This matter is indeed very difficult to handle, but according to Zan Pu's approach, I believe my grandfather will be lenient, but the amount of food cannot be large. "

After Li Xiang's words came out, Songtsen Gampo also breathed a sigh of relief. As long as you can relax, it will be fine. If you don't relax, it will be useless no matter how many people we give. The first batch If you can't have more food, you can't have more food. At any rate, this is a good start. We can ship more batches later. Isn't that good?
The general regulations were finalized, and in the following time, everyone started a series of debates around the price and transportation method. In the end, Li Xiang took all the initiative. As for the price of 45 cents, how much could be transported , Li Xiang has no reply now. All the food will be transported to the border of Tuyuhun. As for the remaining roads, it will be transported by the Tubo army. Of course, Luhatai's army must follow Li Xiang...
