Chapter 917 King Shu Jinyan
The wolf son of the king of Shu is ambitious, not good.
When the kings seized the throne, in order to seize the throne, he couldn't help colluding with foreign ministers, and he also had the courage to conspire with Yiran Khan and Agus, regardless of the interests of the Tang Dynasty.
People like King Shu who will do whatever it takes to achieve their goals can't do anything for their own benefit?
If the emperor uses the king of Shu again, if the king of Shu gradually grasps power and encircles his own power, the hidden ambition is very likely to revivenation.
In this way, it is definitely not a good thing for the Tang Dynasty and the emperor.
Yang Yue heard the sound and sucked lightly with the teacup. When he was young, he said loudly: "Gao Aiqing, Li Aiqing, let the King of Shu talk about the problems existing in the west of the court!"
Gao Xiaoyun, what Li Xuanqi is worried about, Yang Yue knows very well, from the bottom of his heart, he also has doubts about using the King of Shu.
The king of Shu is good at scheming and fighting, ambitious, and peeps into the throne.
However, no one is perfect, and the King of Shu also has his own weaknesses, back then, in order to save his concubine, he gave up fighting for the throne, and in the future, he will also expose other weaknesses.
At this moment, he wanted to know what problems existed in the strategy and tactics of the Tang army in Tuyuhun and Tubo operations.
When the King of Shu heard the news, his cold eyes glanced at Gao Xiaoyun and Li Xuanqi, with a little anger.
Today, surrendering to Yang Yue and showing weakness does not mean that others can despise him, at this moment, he still does not take Gao Xiaoyun, Li Xuanqi and other courtiers in his eyes.
After bowing to Yang Yue, the King of Shu replied loudly: "Your Majesty, in recent days, after many investigations, Weichen has found that Tubo is strong and has a vast territory, which is by no means a situation that the Tang Dynasty understands.
Today, the new king of Tibet ascended the throne, led his army to eradicate the rebellion, and unified the western plateau. He also carried out various reforms within the tribes, moved the capital to Luo, and established a political and military system from the central government to the local government with reference to the central official system and the government and military system of the Tang Dynasty.
In order to meet the needs of the economy and politics, the calendar was adopted, which prescribed weights and measures to unify the tribes, created writing, and issued cruel decrees.
In the past, Tubo and the Tang Dynasty had a fierce competition in Xichuan and the Western Regions. A hundred years ago, the Tang Dynasty declined, and Tubo and Tuyuhun invaded the Western Regions.
Although during the period of the Tang Dynasty regained control of the Western Regions, but the Tibetan did not give up, when I waited for my father, the Tang Dynasty civil strife, seriously weakened themselves, the Tibetan took the opportunity to open their hands, the Tang Dynasty completely lost the Anxi Protectorate, the Beiting Protectorate, for a long time, the Tibetan Dynasty caused strong military pressure on the Tang Dynasty.
Nowadays, the Tang Dynasty is gradually revived, and Tubo has been reunified after war, but the court is despising Tubo from top to bottom, which will sooner or later bring hidden dangers to the court.
Weichen suggested that the court should eradicate Tubo, either to increase troops to the west and strengthen military operations, or to send troops to contain Tubo in Xichuan, and take the lead in concentrating all efforts to eradicate Tuyuhun from the south of Longyou.
Otherwise, the Tang forces are too scattered on the Western Front, and if Tubo wins one after another, it will be easy to break the Tang Army one by one, and the Tang Army's defense on the Western Front will collapse in an instant!"
"Hmm!"
Yang Yue bowed slightly, neither agreeing with the suggestion of the King of Shu, nor denying it, and his calm attitude made the ministers unable to guess what he meant.
Seeing Yang Yue's demeanor, the King of Shu was slightly annoyed, he said so much, Yang Yue was silent, what did he mean?
I think very highly of myself, despise his thoughts, and still take his words as a deaf ear.
The king of Shu was slightly angry, did not answer again, and motioned to the Sassanid merchants around him to step forward.
If you want to change Yang Yue's attitude and persuade him to pay attention to Tibet, you still need the people of the Western Regions to explain the problem themselves!
The Sassanid merchant did not dare to hesitate, stepped forward with a cautious expression, and bowed to Yang Yue: "Villain Abuli, meet the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, long live my emperor, long live long live!"
"Abuli, have something to say!" Yang Yue glanced at the other party and asked in a cold voice.
Abuli raised his head and looked around, bowing his head slightly: "Your Majesty, the villain is from the Sassanid Dynasty, in recent years, the Sassanid Dynasty has been fighting against the big cannibals and Turks in the west, and quelling the internal war, and the two sides have not yet decided the winner.
Today, the king of Shu came to the palace and made a statement to the emperor, what he said was not wrong, Tubo was strong, fighting against the Tang Dynasty on the eastern front, occasionally helping Tuyuhun fight against the Turks, and fighting against the big cannibals on the western front, and the strength was very strong!"
"Abuli, Tubo fought with Da Shi and Da Tang, but Da Tang faced the Turks, Tubo, and Khitan at the same time, and Nanzhao in the south, could it be that the military strength of the Tang Dynasty was afraid of Tubo!" General Guo Huaiyuan stepped forward and vetoed Abuli's suggestion.
He didn't know how strong the military strength of Da Shi was, but he knew that the Tang Dynasty resisted at the same time, Khitan, Turkic, Tubo, Tuyuhun, and the power was definitely no worse than Da Shi.
"That's right, Datang has recovered Longyou Dao, eradicated Lai Suyuan, recaptured the Western Regions, and rebuilt the Anxi Protectorate and the Beiting Protectorate, it is only a matter of time, at that time, the Tang Dynasty will compete with all parties in the Western Regions, and it is unknown who will kill the deer!" Zhao Xuanhu said firmly!
He doesn't know about the Western Regions, but if the emperor wants to restore the prosperous scene of the Tang Dynasty, not only in terms of economy, national strength, but also in the military, if the Tang Dynasty is strong, it is just around the corner to return to the Western Regions!
"Guo Huaiyuan, Zhao Xuanhu, and A Buli did not claim that the Tang Dynasty was weak and could not eliminate Tibet, but only reminded the court to prevent the slightest problem and prevent it from happening.
Besides, the war in the west is related to the future and safety of the Tang Dynasty, and there is nothing wrong with acting cautiously, you are so confident that you can't listen to the slightest piece of unspoken advice, and today you despise Tibet, and the Tang army will fail to fight on the Western Front in the future, which will not only affect the future of the Tang Dynasty, but also the Khitan, Turkic, Nanzhao and other forces, and will take the opportunity to fall into the ground, are you responsible for this responsibility?"
I met my former cronies in the council hall, but now he works for Yang Yue and dares to refute his suggestions, and the king of Shu is very dissatisfied with Guo Huaiyuan!
Guo Huaiyuan and Zhao Xuanhu were angrily reprimanded by the King of Shu, and they were silent for a while.
In the dragon chair, Yang Yue was reminded by the King of Shu and suddenly remembered something.
Battle of Dafeichuan!
In that year, in the Tang Dynasty and Tubo for the four towns of Qiuzi, Shule, Khotan, and Yanqi, a battle took place in Dafeichuan.
In this battle, the Tubo army avoided the real and the false, did not directly confront the elite of the Tang army, and chose to cut off its grain and grass, and concentrated its superior forces to win the victory.
On the contrary, the Tang army went out from afar, and the troops were not enough, and the supply was not smooth, especially the generals in the army were not in harmony, and the deputy generals violated military orders without permission, insisted on going their own way, and finally fell into defeat.
Now in the era he is in, the historical trajectory has changed slightly, and there was no battle between Dafei Sichuan between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo, however, from the side, Tubo can compete with the Tang Dynasty and the equally powerful Dashi, which shows that the strength of Tubo is indeed not weak!
