The Strongest Imperial Grandson of the Great Tang Dynasty

"Your Highness came to our grassland, presumably because of this matter. I wonder what your Highness proposes, and what is Datang's attitude?"

Prime Minister Midu stopped beating around the bush. If it were anyone else, they would still test each other. The reason why Li Xiang found Prime Minister Midu was precisely because he could see the situation clearly and would never waste time on such meaningless negotiations. .

"Let's open the sky and speak frankly. The existence of Tuyuhun is good for the Tang Dynasty. It's not that we are afraid of the Tubo Kingdom, but because there are various situations in the country that have not been resolved. I believe you also saw it during the grassland auction some time ago. When it comes, almost all powerful people in our country are participating in the auction, so we cannot have a large-scale foreign war."

What Li Xiang said is true. In this kind of negotiation process, if you say something out of the blue, it is of little use. If you say that you are protecting your family and country for Tuyuhun, can people believe this? All you need to do is say what's good for you. When Prime Minister Midu saw that Li Xiang was really honest, he let down his guard a little.

"Does this mean that if a war breaks out, the Tang Dynasty will assist us in Tuyuhun?"

Prime Minister Midu said with some disbelief. You must know that a few months ago, the two countries had a large-scale war. Tuyuhun even lost a large amount of land in the north, as well as a large amount of money. Now, The two countries immediately entered the negotiation stage. No one would believe this.

"Even if the Tang Dynasty fully assists you, Prime Minister, please tell me the truth, how long can you hold on? This is very important to us, and we also need to evaluate how many troops we should send."

When Long San next to him heard what Li Xiang said, he really didn't know what to say. We have no plan to aid Tuyuhun at all. His Highness said this purely to confuse these people and make them think that we have such a plan. I'll fool you people later.

When Prime Minister Midu and Tuyuhun Khan heard this, they were very happy in their hearts. When they came, they analyzed that when the Tang Dynasty sent Li Xiang to the grassland, there must be important things to talk about, but they never thought about it. The Tang Dynasty will support Tuyuhun. It seems that the Tang Dynasty still has a fear of Tubo.

"Our Tuyuhun soldiers are brave and good at fighting. This time it is another battle to protect our country. We can last at least four months."

As soon as Prime Minister Midu finished speaking, Li Xiang started laughing next to him. You still need to brag at this time. Do you think we don’t know your actual situation? If there was no previous war, we also believe that four months would be enough. But according to your current situation, four months would be a pipe dream.

"Prime Minister, I think we should be honest. If you want to say that you can persist for four months, then even if our Tang army wants to support you, we will have plenty of time, and there is no need for me to come all the way here. I discussed it with you on the grassland.”

Li Xiang's words made Prime Minister Midu a little reluctant to step down. However, they urgently needed the support of the Tang Dynasty, but they did not want to weaken the prestige of their own country. Once the Tubo attack was repelled, if the Tang Dynasty contributed too much, it would still be there. A large piece of meat was cut off from their bodies, and the boy in front of them was not a vegetarian.

"Two months at most..."

When Prime Minister Midu said this, he didn't dare to raise his head. This is the real situation in Tuyuhun now. Even though it is in their country, after the Tang army retreated, various tribes fought in melee. It was so cruel that some tribes did not suffer much loss when fighting against the Tang army, but were wiped out during the process of moving south. This kind of thing is not uncommon on the grasslands.

It was during this kind of civil war that Tuyuhun's strength was consumed a lot, so being able to persist for two months was already their greatest ability.

"The time is too short. In these two months, even if we mobilize our troops as quickly as possible, we cannot save Tuyuhun from destruction."

Li Xiang is definitely an excellent actor, letting people tell the truth. He can't be saved, but what he said is also the truth. The Tubo army has reached the border, which was unexpected by both countries. If the time had been longer, Datang would still have time to deploy troops and generals, but in just two months, there was not even enough time on the road.

"Then what should we do?"

Prime Minister Midu was like a person falling off a cliff. He grabbed Li Xiang and threw a rope down. Now Li Xiang suddenly said that the rope was useless. Prime Minister Midu felt that all the strength in his body had been drained. .

The Tuguhun Khan next to him also took a step back. Li Xiang raised his head and glanced at the old guard. Of course, he did not attract his attention. Maybe this guy also lamented the destruction of Tuguhun.

"We really want to help you, but unfortunately this time is too short. We can't mobilize our troops in two months. Although there are some troops in Liangzhou City, we must first ensure the safety of our own people. Once something happens We all go out of the city to assist you. If someone among you attacks the border city, our people will be doomed."

Seeing the opponent being defeated step by step, Li Xiang also thought about how to guide him to the agreement. Of course, he couldn't move too fast. If he did it too fast, the prime minister opposite him would be no fool.

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, all our troops are more than four hundred miles away from Liangzhou City. How can they cause any kind of harm to Nanzhou City? If Your Highness does not believe it, we can continue to withdraw the troops south."

Prime Minister Midu said anxiously, if it is for this reason, the worst we can do is withdraw the troops to the south. After all, there will be a war soon, and all the troops in the north will have to withdraw to the south. There are not many troops, and even if they are all withdrawn now, it will be like this.

Tuyuhun Khan wanted to interject, but thinking of his current status, he swallowed the words abruptly. The north cannot but retain some troops. If it does not retain its troops, it will be difficult for us to fight against Tibet. At that time, the Tang Dynasty would send troops at any time, and they would divide our land with Tubo...

Tuyuhun Khan finally understood what the helplessness of a small country is, that is, when you consider a big country, there is no way to consider another big country, but both of them are capable of squeezing you to death...
