The Strongest Imperial Grandson of the Great Tang Dynasty
Chapter 256 A sudden turn of events
Looking at the news sent by the visitor, Prime Minister Midu and Tuguhun Khan didn't know what to say. They had just reached an agreement and were ready to pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty. From now on, they would become vassal states of the Tang Dynasty. As a result, the general on the front line sent back news that the Tibetan army had begun to retreat.
"It came just in time. We almost sold the entire Tuyuhun. If we signed the agreement like this, Ben Khan would be the sinner of the entire Tuyuhun."
Seeing the happy Prime Minister Khan Midu in front of him, he was not very happy. He felt that this was really a coincidence. Just after discussing these matters with Li Xiang, the Tubo army retreated and said it was a normal patrol. ?
How is this possible? In the past half month or so, the Tibetan army has been causing trouble at the border. There have been several armed conflicts. More than 200 people have died on our side. Is this how you patrol normally? ?
"Any questions?"
Khan saw Prime Minister Midu's serious expression. Could it be that there was something he hadn't thought of? Prime Minister Midu is the brains of the entire Tuyuhun.
"Don't the Great Khan think this matter is too strange? We were about to be cornered. The grandson of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty arrived here, and then the Tubo army began to retreat. I always feel that there is a huge conspiracy here, but in the end it is the Great Is the conspiracy of the Tang emperor and grandson still a Tubo conspiracy? Wei Chen can’t figure it out for the time being.”
The Khan of Tuyuhun was not a fool. Hearing what Prime Minister Midu said, he also felt that there was some doubt in it. Everything happened by coincidence. Although they couldn't figure out the joints, there was one thing. What is certain is that they, Tuyuhun, have lost their autonomy. Both the Tang Dynasty and Tubo regard them as lambs to be slaughtered.
"Don't think about these useless things. Now send this Li Xiang away quickly. Since we no longer have the threat from the southern border, why should we keep him? As for this agreement to pay tribute, I It’s even more unnecessary to watch.”
Tuyuhun Khan had a look of joy on his face. No matter what kind of conspiracy there was, as long as he was not allowed to pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty, it was a good thing in his opinion. Now that the Tibetan army has retreated, they The crisis has been resolved, why should we pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty?
"Khan, wait a minute."
Prime Minister Midu quickly stopped this guy. Things between countries are not something we can do whatever we want. We must consider everything carefully. If there is any mistake in the process, our lives will not be easy. Better off.
"Has Khan ever thought that this army is only temporarily retreating. What if Li Xiang returns to Chang'an and they come back again? It's a long distance from here to Chang'an, and we can't catch up with him."
After hearing what Prime Minister Midu said, the joy on Khan's face immediately disappeared. It was no secret that Tubo had thoughts about them. Since the end of the last war, the merchants from Tubo have spoken louder. Quite a few, not to mention the hundreds of thousands of official troops. Can they just leave?
"Do you think this is a Tibetan conspiracy?"
Tuyuhun Khan said solemnly, if this is really the case, if they give up this cooperation with Li Xiang, what they may give up is Tuyuhun's vitality. With their own strength, they will never be able to stop Tubo's ten thousand attacks. Fifty thousand troops.
"I only know the news from our previous detection. The Tubo people have prepared food and grass for nearly four months. If it is just a patrol, do they need to use 150,000 troops? Moreover, they themselves are very short of supplies, far less than the Tang Dynasty. Rich, how could they prepare four months of food and grass? These four months of food and grass accounted for almost half of their treasury expenditure, just for a so-called patrol?"
This message is simple, but the information previously detected is very detailed. The Tubo Kingdom has never made such a big move, just because of the lack of supplies in the country. Now if they go back like this, will anyone bear their losses? ?
"You are right, but now they have indeed left. If we want to send people to investigate, it will take at least several days. Should we first stabilize the grandson?"
Prime Minister Tuyuhun came up with an undefeated strategy.
If the Tubo people really retreat, then we can find any excuse to excuse it. We don't want to be your sons, but if the Tubo people fake the retreat, then we will sign this agreement.
After hearing this, Prime Minister Midu didn't know what to say about his Khan. Do you think Li Xiang is a fool? Even if you are a fool, you cannot hold it in your hands. Behind this fool is the entire Tang Empire.
"Let's think about it from another angle. We have become a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty. There is no harm to us at this stage. It only costs 250,000 guan per year. Other cattle and sheep are equivalent to 150,000 guan. Four hundred thousand dollars a year, this can keep us safe, but if we let this opportunity go and look for him next time, according to his usual lion-hearted character, the Tubo people are imminent and want us two hundred dollars a year. It’s possible to make millions of dollars.”
Mi Ducheng knows Li Xiang very well. This guy is not an ordinary person. The first time you ask, the price is the same. The second time you ask, the price will be doubled to take care of you. The third time you ask, don’t even think about it... …
"But now that the Tibetan army has really retreated, we don't need to become their vassal state."
Tuyuhun Khan said very anxiously. He felt that Prime Minister Midu was a little stupid. Why should he give Datang so much money?
"Don't worry, Khan. Let's do a simple analysis. If we don't become a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty, then we will be under the threat of the Tubo people at any time. Even if they patrol normally this time, will they still patrol next time? ? We cannot make mistakes. One mistake may lead to the destruction of the country. But if we become a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty, it will only be 400,000 yuan per year. We can get it. For us now, this is also the best choice. ."
Prime Minister Midu weighed the pros and cons, and finally felt that this method was extremely effective. It would at least allow Tuyuhun to exist and prevent the country from being in a state of imminent subjugation every moment.
"This is simply ridiculous. Ben Khan will not approve it in this state. Go ahead and send him away."
Tuyuhun Khan said with a cold face, he had already made a decision...
