Emperor of the Tang Dynasty

"You..." Li You said with a smile, "I was thinking just now that I might be lost in the big victory, so I blindly wanted to pursue higher achievements?"

As soon as Li You's words fell, Han Wei and the others were shocked, only to feel that their own thoughts were seen through by His Royal Highness.

Li You said slowly again: "Gu know why you think so, but in Gu's opinion, attacking Tubo is a necessary thing."

"Necessary things?" Liu Lan asked in confusion, "I dare to ask Your Highness, why is this necessary?"

"Didn't you hear what Gu said just now? The necessity is the 'no future troubles'!"

Li You knew that if Tubo was allowed to develop, in the next two hundred years, Tubo would become one of the strongest enemies of the Tang Dynasty!

In the past two hundred years, how much will Tubo delay the development of Datang?How much did Datang pay for it?How many people will Datang die?

If possible, Li You would like to suppress this threat to the point where it is not completely unmanageable, in exchange for a brighter future for the Tang Dynasty!

"As for why Songtsan Gampo made such a desperate attempt to attack the Tang Dynasty, it is understandable," Li You said, "Isn't the reason behind this never ending trouble?"

"Or to put it another way, it was Datang's previous active attack in the first battle of Gaochang, which made Songtsen Gampo finally unable to ignore the threat of a powerful empire, and then he would continue to think about it, if he didn't hurry to take advantage of it If the Tang Dynasty is destroyed now, won't it be even worse in the future?"

After more than ten days of thinking, Li You has roughly figured out Songtsen Gampo's thinking.

Although the starting points are different, the final destination is the same - Songtsen Gampo, like Li You, clearly saw the terrorist threat that the other party will bring in the future, so he planned to act decisively in advance!

And now, both for Datang and for Tubo, it is the best time to destroy each other.

"I have also thought of what His Highness said," Li Xiaogong said after a moment of silence, "but I wonder if His Highness has ever thought about the fact that the battle between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo is bound to be a hard fight!"

"When the Great Tang has just ended the catastrophe, is it inappropriate to fall into such a state of war with huge consumption? Even if the Great Tang can win by then, what price will it pay!?"

Li You waved his hand and said: "This kind of thing will not happen, how can Gu drag the entire Tang Dynasty into the quagmire of war?"

"His Royal Highness means that it will not affect the Tang Dynasty at all?" Li Xiaogong questioned, "How is this possible? If you want to fight against a powerful country like Tubo, it will affect your whole body!"

"Why is it impossible?" Li You said indifferently, "Because Gu didn't plan to ask Chang'an for help at all, but directly led Songzhou's troops to attack Tubo!"

If you do this, it won't affect the country too much, but this crazy idea surprised everyone here!

"Your Highness, this is absolutely impossible!"

Li Xiaogong, Niu Jinda, Han Wei and the others were completely shocked. For a moment, they all wondered if His Royal Highness had a brain disease - otherwise, why would they say such a whimsical statement?

"His Royal Highness, please think twice!" Zhi Shisi urged, "Songzhou must leave troops and horses to guard it, and judging from the current number of people, that means you can only lead [-] troops into Tibet at most. That's it!"

"And in the country of Tubo, there will be at least several times your strength! Under such circumstances, what are your chances of winning? Why do you insist on fighting this unwinnable war?"

Once Li You counterattacked into Tibet, and still only led a mere [-] troops, the advantages and disadvantages would be reversed in an instant!

"Gu is not thinking of this without a plan," Li You shook his head and explained, "but based on factual analysis, maybe [-] people is enough!"

……

Suspicion and Liu Lan closed their mouths temporarily after hearing the words, intending to hear what Li You wanted to say.

Because they suddenly thought that His Royal Highness is indeed not a stunner in war. Although His Royal Highness has not been on the battlefield many times, there is no doubt that he can create an incomparably brilliant record every time!

"First of all, let's analyze the domestic military strength of Tubo. Although we don't know the precise figures, we also know that there are hundreds of thousands of troops, not as many as one million, basically less than one million, so the key is It's just a few hundred thousand?"

Everyone nodded, and Li You continued: "Secondly, after only ten days of attacking from Songtsan Gampo, we had to retreat in despair, and we learned another fact."

Several generals were stunned when they heard it. The question of the hundreds of thousands of troops in Tubo has not been solved. Why did His Royal Highness talk about the next topic?Does this fact have anything to do with Tubo's military strength?

Between their doubts, Li You has already explained: "This fact is - it shows from the side that Songtsen Gampo has no one to suppress because of the chaos in the domestic situation, and he has to retreat!"

"From this point, we are enough to reverse the total force of Tubo!"

Chapter 799 Breathtaking!

Everyone Li You said was stunned.

"???"

This...how can this be brought together?

Many of the people present said that they were full of knowledge, but they were still stunned by Li You.

Seeing this, Li You was a little helpless, and said, "Why do you say that? It's because... Forget it, let's start from the beginning."

"We all felt a little surprised when we first learned that Songtsen Gampo had brought an army of [-], and then added another [-]?"

"That's right..." Niu Jinda nodded.

"Then why are we surprised?"

Li You asked himself and answered: "This is because we all know that the current domestic situation in Tubo is very chaotic, so according to common sense, "[-]", Songtsen Gampo will definitely not be one-off in this situation. [-] troops were dispatched to go abroad to fight!"

Hearing this, Li Xiaogong and the others already understood a little.

Li Xiaogong thought about it for a while, and said tentatively: "Then what Your Highness means... Judging from this situation, Songtsan Gampo was forced to rush back to suppress the situation, because the military strength in Tubo has really been exhausted. Not enough?"

"Right, that is it!"

Li You glanced at Li Xiaogong with relief, and was about to praise him for "learning to answer quickly"

"Judging from Songtsen Gampo's perseverance in the previous period, if it wasn't for the domestic situation in Tibet that forced him to go back, would he have left? Obviously not!"

"But the reality is that Songtsan Gampo really left because of this, which means..." Li You paused, "The [-] army he brought out has already hollowed out the domestic military strength of Tubo, making Tubo no longer in the country. There are not enough people to stabilize the chaos!"
