Chapter 927 Each has its own opinion
The Tang Dynasty intends to win over the Turks, eliminate Tibet, and relieve the crisis in the west, and is willing to give the Turks a generous reward for this.
In today's negotiations, the Turks are in an advantageous position, and they can attack and retreat, which needs to be carefully considered.
No matter how anxious the King of Shu is, he should be patient and wait.
"The king of the Khan is right, the Turks and the Tang Dynasty have formed an alliance and taken the opportunity to eradicate the Tibetan is a major matter of the country, and the decision cannot be made lightly, this king temporarily lives in the royal court, waiting for the good news from the king of the Khan!" The king of Shu did not urge, did not hurry, nodded slightly, and looked like he understood Agus and understood the Turkic distress.
"Happy!"
"The prince waits for the time being, regardless of whether the tribe is allied with the Tang army or not, within three days, the news will be given to the prince!" Agus, Yi Ran, and Wen Boyan looked at each other, nodded in unison, and said to the King of Shu in a cheerful voice.
"Pass on the Khan's order, arrange accommodation for the King of Shu and the Tang envoys, and entertain with good wine and food!" Agus commanded the pro-army beside him, signaling the other party to lead the king of Shu away.
"King Khan, see you another day, farewell!"
The king of Shu got up from the soft couch, hugged his fists and saluted Argus in return, then tidied up the python robe, and led his colleagues out of the sweat tent.
"Lord Wang, the Turks seem to be unwilling to give up the northern part of the Tianshan Mountains, and they are unwilling to form an alliance with the Tang Army to crusade against Tuyuhun and Tibet!"
When he went to the post station, the deputy envoy of the mission looked vigilant, looked in all directions, stepped closer to the king of Shu, and whispered his guess.
"This is not the place to talk, go to the post station and talk about it!"
The king of Shu glanced at the Turks in front of him, and the patrols that kept appearing in all directions, and signaled the deputy envoy to be patient and wait for the opportunity.
......
When only the Agus monarchs and ministers were left in the sweat tent, Yan Xingjun looked up at the Agus and the others, and found that everyone looked serious, as if they were thinking about something, so they got up from the cushion in a hurry, walked to the center of the sweat tent, bowed and saluted, and said loudly: "King Khan, the power of the Tang Dynasty has advanced by leaps and bounds, continue to let it grow, and sooner or later the tribe will not have the strength to contend with the other party.
Now, Yang Yue and Yang Xiao have roped in the tribe to conquer Tubo, Tuguhun, and clearly have ghosts in their hearts.
Once the coalition forces wiped out the Tibetans, the Tang Dynasty had no worries in the southwest, and would definitely turn around and unite with the Khitan, wave the Northern Expedition, and invade the tribes.
After careful consideration, the last general advised the Khan not to seek the skin of the tiger and dance with the wolf. Instead of choosing to form an alliance with the Tang Dynasty to form a coalition army, it is better to take advantage of the situation when the Tang Dynasty army is gathering in the west and falling into a state of stalemate with the Tibetans, and secretly unite with the Tibetans to jointly eradicate the Tang Dynasty."
"General Yan, the tribe signed an alliance with the Tang Dynasty, there is still a Khitan threat in the east, and the southern expedition to the Tang Dynasty, the tribe will definitely fall into a two-front battle, and in the end, only Bai Bai is cheap to Tubo!" Wen Boyan refuted Yan's plan to march because it was too hasty and reckless.
The forces of all sides are vying for power, and the main thing is to conquer by force, and we cannot ignore the cooperation of all parties.
Today, the Turks, Tubo, and Tuyuhun choose the Tang Dynasty and the Khitan to fight, and the core forces are still the Tang Dynasty and the Turks.
"Mr. Wen, after Yang Yue succeeded to the throne, he conquered the east and the west, promulgated a new policy, and the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty far exceeded that of Tibet, and the amount of money and grain gathered was innumerable.
Moreover, both the tribe and the Tubo invaded the Tang Dynasty, destroying Yang Yue's dream of reviving the Tang Dynasty in time, and dispelling the idea of the Tang Dynasty passing through the west and northeast of the Tang Dynasty, thereby restraining the rise of the Tang Dynasty." Yan Xingjun retorted, in his eyes, the struggle between the Turks and the Tang Dynasty was a matter of life and death for the tribe, and it was not a child's play.
After talking about his thoughts, Yan Xingjun saw Agus, Yiran, and Wen Boyan staring at him together, and after being slightly surprised, he said a little depressedly: "The Tang Dynasty set up the Andong Protectorate in the northeast to threaten the interests of the Khitans, and set up the Anxi Protectorate in the Western Regions, touching the tribes and Tubo, and the interests of Tuyuhun.
We are all victims, why don't we perfunctory Yang Xiao and secretly send an envoy to the Khitan, Tuyuhun, and Tubo as soon as possible, attract forces from all sides, form a coalition army to fight against the Tang Dynasty, and go south to fight!"
After saying so much, Yan Xingjun considered the tribe from the bottom of his heart, and suggested that Agus go south to fight, instead of colluding with the Tang Dynasty and acting in embarrassment.
Destroy the Tang Dynasty, avenge the revenge of the Wuding River, seize its money, grain and wealth, and seek benefits for the Turks.
Yan Xingjun was belligerent, but everyone in the sweat tent didn't take his advice seriously.
Regardless of Agus, or Yiran Khan, Wen Boyan, they all have their own patterns, and from a strategic level, they don't care about the gains and losses of one city or one county.
Their hearts are like mirrors, the current Tang Dynasty is doing what the Turks should have done, if the tribe suddenly chooses to form an alliance with Tubo and Tuyuhun secretly to crusade against the Tang Dynasty, it is tantamount to recognizing the ownership of the Western Regions, which seriously damages the interests of the tribe.
Not to mention whether the Tang Dynasty can be eliminated, once the conquest of the Tang Dynasty is over, the vast territory of the Western Regions will be reduced to the inherent sphere of influence of Tubo, and even the Right Xian King, who is stationed in Gongyue City, will be forced to withdraw from the Western Regions.
With the loss of the Western Regions, the Turks' westward advance was blocked, and money and grain bore the brunt of the sharp decrease.
In the East, the Turks and the Khitan are personal enemies, never allow the Khitan to grow, have deep grievances with each other, and it is extremely difficult to win over the Khitan.
If the Khitan were to ask for the territory occupied by the Turks in the past, wouldn't the Turks pick the sesame seeds and lose the watermelon?
The Turks can't afford such a price, and they are not willing to do things that harm others and themselves in front of the huge benefits thrown out by the Tang Dynasty.
"Brother, whether you choose to form an alliance with Yang Yue and join forces to conquer Tibet will inevitably affect the tribal quadripartite pattern.
Judging from the current pattern, the Tang Dynasty is surrounded by enemies on three sides, and the tribes are also surrounded by enemies on three sides, only Tubo can challenge the tribe and the Tang Dynasty, and the ministers suggest that the leaders of the various departments be summoned to come to the royal court to hold an emergency military meeting!"
Yiran Khan clasped his fists sideways and saluted to Agus, with a cautious expression, after speaking, his cold eyes swept over Yan Xingjun, and asked generously and forcefully: "General Yan, you suggested that the tribe should conquer the Tang Dynasty in the south, have you considered the pattern between Tibet and the tribe after the tribe lost the Western Regions.
Once the Tibetans completely controlled the countries of the Western Regions, their power extended to the south of the tribe, threatening the western part of the tribe, and threatening the right virtuous king.
There is a saying in the Tang Dynasty, how can others be allowed to snore on the side of the couch, compared to the proposal of the Tang Dynasty to carve up the Western Regions, the domineering practice of Tubo has already threatened the tribe, as if the Khan King and millions of tribal athletes are not taken into account."
"Lord Wang, there are priorities, Tubo only threatens the southwest of the tribe, and the Tang Dynasty is strong, but it threatens the hinterland of the tribe, which is more important, the prince should be clear!" Yan Xingjun did not hesitate, and sharply refuted Yi Ran's suggestion to conquer Tubo, clenched his fists and warned: "Gelie is ambitious, he wants to threaten the tribe, and after eradicating the Tang Dynasty, the last general believes that the tribe has enough strength to recapture the Western Regions, teach Gelie a lesson, and show the majesty of the tribe."
