Chastity Layman

  Chapter 1086 Thunder

  Songzhou, Leiguan.

   Tubo general Gar Dongzanyusong, and Ang Riqiong, the son of Qiongpo Bangse, all arrived.

   They sent a beautiful box.

   "This is a gift from Zamp!"

   Taichang Qing Wei Ting asked someone to take the box and motioned to open it.

  I thought that there might be some precious jewelry in the box, but when I opened it, it turned out to be a hideous head.

   "Hiss!"

  The difference was so great that Wei Ting was startled.

   "What does this mean?" Wei Ting asked angrily.

  Ang Riqiong smiled darkly, "The ambassador of Shangguo doesn't know this person, then General Liu Ningyuan must know him."

   Liu Lancheng came over to take a look, and felt a little familiar.

   "Could it be the Prime Minister of Tubo?"

"It was my mother, Mangbuje Shangnangye. Shangguo asked me to hand over the chief culprit in Tubo. Zanpu had no choice but to kill the prime minister and send the head." When Galdongzan said this, he brought With an unspeakable meaning.

   This made Wei Ting, Li Baiyao, Cui Renshi and several envoys a little puzzled by Monk Zhang Er, and your Zanpu is really a soft bone. He killed his prime minister after a few words of scaring. Just kill it, why are you running here?

  What is there to be proud of?

  Several Tubo ministers looked down on the Tang envoy with a victorious attitude, secretly proud that we have wiped out the traitor you have tried so hard to buy, are you very sad and distressed at this moment?

  The plot failed, right?

  In the past two months, the peace talks have been suppressed, and the extremely depressed Gal Dongzan even wanted to laugh a few times in front of the Tang people.

   Wei Ting and the others looked bewildered.

   Liu Lancheng smiled after confirming that it was really a bag.

   "Okay, Zanpu is decisive and courageous in killing. We accept Tubo's sincerity, but the culprit should be more than Niang Shangnang."

  ······

  Gal Dongzan and others were speechless.

  Ang Riqiong raised his head and said, "Zanpu Ciri has killed more than a hundred of Shangnang and his children, and also killed the entire Niang family in the army, as well as tens of thousands of slaves."

   Liu Lancheng gave him a thumbs up, ruthless, really ruthless.

   But this is Zanpu’s usual style of acting. When he succeeded to the throne, he invaded Shannan, defeated the rebellious old nobles, and exterminated them. His behavior was quite ruthless. Now it is normal to kill Shang Nang and all Shang Nang's clan.

   "How can you be sure?" Liu Lancheng still asked with a smile.

   "The head of the Niang clan has built a Jingguan, which stands under the mountain."

   "Okay, we will send someone to confirm."

  ······

   Liu Lancheng came to see Qin Lang, bringing the box and the head.

"Sanlang is really good. It's a good move to kill people with a knife. But I still don't understand why Tubo really killed his prime minister, and killed tens of thousands of people at once, especially because they don't look like that at all. Those who were forced to kill seemed to have made a great contribution? Ask Saburo, why is this?"

  Qin Lang only said before sending out troops that there was one more thing to do, waiting for the leader from Tubo to come.

   Unexpectedly, it was actually delivered.

  Qin Lang didn't look at the head, and smiled on his face.

   "In the Three Kingdoms, Jiang Qian Jiangdong stole books, Cao Cao killed Cai in Jingzhou, have you heard the story this time?"

   "The story of Romance was written by Saburo, but it doesn't seem to be in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms."

   "Hahaha, there are unofficial histories, but there are no official histories. When I first wrote The Romance of the Three Kingdoms, I also used unofficial histories, so I also used this trick on the young Zanpu from Tubo."

   "How do you do it?"

  Although Liu Lancheng is a general who was born as a scholar, he is much stronger than a brainless general like Han Wei, but he still can't figure out how Qin Lang did it.

  Shang Nang is the Prime Minister of Tubo.

"It's just to take advantage of people's hearts. Tubo Songtsan Gampo is young and promising, but his experience in his youth made him suspicious by nature, and Niang, as a subject of Senbo, has poured power into Tubo for decades. He is extremely powerful, suspected of having made great achievements, and the deputy prime minister Qiongpo Bangse is ambitious, and has been coveting and spying on the position of prime minister, but has been suppressed by his mother..."

Suspicion, struggle for power, the complex relationship between the Tubo monarch and the two top ministers, Qin Lang mastered it through Shou Zhuo Lang, and then used Shou Zhuo Lang to manipulate secretly, so that several Tubo people in Shou Zhuo Lang pretended to be captured Shang Nang's subordinates were accidentally discovered by Ang Riqiong, the son of Qiongbo Bangse in Songzhou, and then revealed the false news that Shang Nang had been captured when Ningyuan was defeated.

  Jongpo Bangser wanted to take down Niang Shangnang from the very beginning, and of course he would immediately take advantage of such news. When Songtsan Gampo knew the news, he would inevitably have suspicions.

  Originally, the confrontation between the monarch and his ministers would always lead to the truth, but Qiongpo Bangse played an active assistant role in the whole incident, and he would try his best to help Qin Qiong get rid of the Shang bag.

  In the whole incident, the seemingly inconspicuous Zanpu leopard skin guard was caught stealing, and then confessed that Shang Nang had bribed him to spy on Zanpu's words and deeds, which was the last straw that broke the camel's back.

  As for the affidavit, it is actually full of loopholes.

But after all, the Tubo army is stationed on the border of Songzhou at this time, the peace talks are not good, and Zanpu rides a tiger to the south. At this time, Shang Nangwan has been surrendered to Tang, and the consequences will be extremely serious, and even the entire Tubo army will be in a doomed situation great possibility.

  So Zanpu will be stricter than usual, and act faster, and he doesn't even dare to hesitate for too long.

   Cut the mess with a sharp knife, and naturally cut the bag.

Qin Lang has no personal grievances with Shang Nang. Shang Nang attacked Ningyuan and returned in a big defeat. But Shang Nang is the Prime Minister of Tubo, and he is known as resourceful. Even the rapid rise of Tubo in these years, Shang Nang presided over the reform of Tubo. , He formulates laws, decides strategies, and implements new tax laws, including military and civil administrative divisions such as five such as eight wings, sixteen domains, sixty-one Dongdai, and so on.

  This guy is not good at fighting, but he is absolutely a first-class player in internal affairs.

Borrowing a knife to kill people and get rid of Shang Nang will definitely hit Tubo more than annihilating tens of thousands of horses. What's more, Shang Nang is still the Niang clan, and the Niang clan is the leader of Senbo's old ministers. Among the three forces in Tubo today, Senbo The department is the largest department.

  The whole thing seems extremely complicated, but in fact, as Qin Lang said, it cannot be exploited.

   This is the highest state of envoys.

  After hearing this, Liu Lancheng couldn't help sighing, this is really killing people without a knife.

   With a trick of alienation, he killed the Tubo Prime Minister Shang Nang, and by the way, with the help of Zanpu, he killed tens of thousands of Niang's family members. The Tang army didn't need a single soldier.

  Tubo lost a prime minister, lost a core family, and lost tens of thousands of horses, which inevitably brought panic.

After all, the Niang family is the leader of the Senbo family, and behind the Senbo family are the entire old officials of Supi. After Songtsan Gampo succeeded to the throne and cleaned up the old nobles of the old Yen Xun Shannan who started in Tubo, the Senbo family has become the leader of the Tubo dynasty. The largest force in China, followed by the post-Tibetan faction led by Khunpo Bangse.

  Niang's fall will inevitably trigger a chain effect, and the whole of Tubo will be panicked.

   During the war, this kind of anxiety is fatal.

   "The time has come, send troops!"

"The Youyi and Tabai Army are the left and right forwards, the Jingbian Army and Ningyuan Army are the Right Army, the Baoning Army, Tianbao Army, and Pingrong Army are the Left Army, and the Zhongwu Army and Beiwei Army are the Central Army... "..."

   "Also, detain the few people who sent the head of the bag today, Dongzan Yusong and Ang Riqiong together."

   Liu Lancheng laughed loudly, "How about taking them to sacrifice the flag?"

   "Keep it for now!"

  On August 3rd, the Tang army in Jiannan suddenly left the customs and went to kill Tubo.

   Fortunately, Tubo retreated a hundred li and set up camp. Although there was no war for two months, the Tubo people were also very vigilant. There were always Qingqi scouts along the way.

   "The Tang people are here!"

   "Why?"

  Songtsan Gampo was shocked and even more puzzled.

   Could it be that the Tang people's tricks were seen through, and they became angry from embarrassment?

  More and more Tibetan cavalry rushed back to report, and the army of the Tang Dynasty continued to open the pass, as if the whole army was attacking.

  Jongpo Bangse is still in a daze, it shouldn't be.

   However, Garmang Xiang Songnang, who is in charge of the military power, has already entered the admonition, advising the ministries to retreat immediately, and the peace talks broke down. No matter what the reason is, it is not appropriate to fight with the Tang army.

  Songtsan Gampo stood in a daze in the tent, unable to recover for a long time.

   "Zanpu!" Mang Xiang sang the pouch loudly to wake him up.

  Jungpo Bangser scolded Gar, "Hugh must be rude to Tsampo, step down."

  Gar does not retreat.

Qiongpo Bangse said directly to Zanpu, "The Gar family is also an old minister of Senbo. They used to be the two great ministers of Dajiawu with Niangshi. They have always had a close relationship. It is not clear whether the Gar family conspired with Niangshi. Rebellion, please Zanpu first remove Garmang Prime Minister Song Nang's military power, and the military power cannot be handed over to him."

Mang Xiangsong knelt down, "My Gar family belonged to Dafan several generations ago, and my family has been loyal to Xiboye Zanpu for generations, and I have always been Zanpu's teacher and guard. I swear allegiance to the Zanpu League, my loyalty can be learned from the sun and the moon, and the world can show it!"

  ······

  Mang Xiang Song Nang and Khyungpo Bangse argued there and attacked each other.

  Songtsan Gampo shouted dissatisfied, "Enough!"

His eyes were like knives, and he swept across the two ministers. It is true that the Gar family and the Niang family were the two great ministers of Senbo, but the Gar family took the initiative to defect to the Shannan Xiboye Zanpu family long before the Niang family. , and the family moved to Shannan. Generations of people are indeed loyal, and Mang Xiang's loose father even served as his father's prime minister.

  The position of Tubo Prime Minister was established for the first time after his father pacified Subi. Mang Xiang Songnang's father was the second Tubo Prime Minister.

  The third term is Niang Shangnang.

And Mang Xiang Song Nang was Songtsan Gampo's teacher and bodyguard when he was young. He has been loyal for many years, and now he is his general. It was only during his father's time that he killed the Houfan king and returned to Tubo, and in his father's time, he was only entrusted with posthumous possession, in charge of the local area, and did not serve in the court.

  Until his father was killed, he summoned Jongpo Pangse and swore an alliance with him. Khyungpo Pangse raised troops to help quell the chaos, and later became the deputy prime minister.

   Between Mangxiang Songnang and Khyungpo Bangse, Songtsan Gampo thought for a long time, and finally felt that Mangxiang Songnang was undoubtedly more credible.

  Originally, he had decided to let Qiongpo Bangse take over the position of prime minister, but now that the Tang army suddenly attacked, he realized that what he needed most at this time was to stabilize the instability of the Senbo family caused by Shang Nang's killing.

  Gar's family was originally a former minister of Senbo, and now he has a high status in the court, and Mang Xiang is even a fierce fighter.

   "Prime Minister Garmang, I now confer on you as Prime Minister, and you will be in charge of the military affairs. From now on, you will be the Marshal of the Army!"

  Gal froze.

  Jongpo Bangse was also stunned.
