612 Religion's Counterattack
Lu Dongzan strode into the palace, but was stopped by Songtsen Gampo's personal guards at the palace gate: "General, Zampu said that he doesn't want to see anyone, don't go in anyone, otherwise he will be punished, and ......" The guard lowered his voice: "Zampu is really not in a good mood now, even his favorite porcelain has been broken, so the general should not go in......"
Songtsen Gampo's personal guards are the generational hereditary personal guards of the Zampu family, their loyalty is absolutely reliable, and they are also the people that Songtsen Gampo trusts very much, the number is only three hundred, but in terms of combat effectiveness, these three hundred people can defeat the regular army of more than 1,000 people head-on, and they are all henchmen in the henchmen, compared to Lu Dongzan, these guards are more trusted, so all the officials of the Zampan family know that what these guards say has absolute credibility.
Lu Dongzan is usually very happy to have a good relationship with these guards, and if he has a good relationship with these guards, they will say some good things to Zampu, which is very useful for his career, don't underestimate these guards, as the saying goes, the prime minister's door is the relationship between the seven officials in front of the door, that is, whether they can speak or not, no matter how big the official is, it is useless, everyone in this world has a little power, the key depends on whether you can use it.
Lu Dongzan is so smart, of course he knows the doorway here, so these guards are also very willing to provide convenience to Lu Dongzan, which tells him that Lu Dongzan is not a good time to get angry at this time, but to think calmly about countermeasures, if you want others to perish, let him go crazy first.
It's a proven way, and every loser throughout the ages has confirmed it, but apparently Songtsen Gampo didn't know it. Tubo does not have such a long history as the Han people, but it doesn't matter, as long as someone understands, Lu Dongzan is a person who understands, he declined the kindness of the guards, or asked to enter the palace, and bear the consequences......
After Songtsen Gampo broke his favorite porcelain vase, he was already a little calm, not for anything else, but just because his porcelain vase was broken. It doesn't matter if anything else. His favorite porcelain vase really made him feel painful, looking at the fragments on the ground, he had nothing to say, and he hated the group of people from the Divine Sect even more in his heart. At this time. Lu Dongzan walked in. Looking at the fragments on the ground, he sighed, and squatted down to start tidying up.
"Didn't I say that no one should come in? What are you eating? Believe it or not, I cut off your heads?! Songtsen Gampo did not speak to Lu Dongzan. Instead, he reprimanded the captain of the guard around him, the captain of the guard looked bitter, when he encountered this kind of thing, their guards were not people inside and out, and if they did it, they would offend the minister, and if they couldn't do it, they would offend the emperor, and they would offend some people anyway.
Lu Dongzan didn't stand up, continued to clean up the mess all over the ground, and said by the way: "Don't blame them, Zampu insisted on breaking in, it has nothing to do with them, if you want to punish them, punish your subordinates." β
Songtsen Gampo then shifted his gaze to Lu Dongzan's body, and said coldly: "Benzanpu's order, don't even you obey it?" It's okay if those people from the Divine Sect don't listen, and it's not surprising that the army doesn't listen, and now, even you want to betray me?! β
Lu Dongzan's complexion immediately changed, and he picked up a broken piece of porcelain and put it on his wrist and shouted loudly: "Since Zampu is so suspicious of his subordinates, and his subordinates have nothing to love in life, this will die, in order to eliminate Zampu's doubts, and I hope that Zampu will take care of his subordinates' families!" After speaking, he scratched his wrist hard, and the blood immediately spurted out, Songtsen Gampo was shocked, and immediately pounced on it, tore a piece of the brocade robe on his body, and blocked Lu Dongzan's wound, and shouted loudly: "Go and call the healer!" What are you doing, I, I'm just angry, why are you so serious, why are you so childish?! β
Lu Dongzan's face gradually turned a little pale, and he still insisted on Yan SΓΉ's face and said: "Zan Pu doubts his subordinates' loyalty to Zampu just because of this kind of thing, and his ministers just feel cold, feel that the qiΔ they have done before are all in vain, and feel that the qiΔ they have paid for Zampu before are fruitless, since this is the case, it is better to die!" lest you continue to suffer! β
Songtsen Gampo looked annoyed and shouted: "I, I, I'm just angry, why do you want to do this again, this will kill you!" If I doubt you, why should I give you the right to command the army? How could you go to negotiate with Tang Guo? Ah! It's all my fault, it's all my fault, okay? Why hasn't the doctor come yet! Want to die!? β
After some tossing, the doctor finally rushed over, stopped Lu Dongzan's blood, and then bandaged the inner and outer three layers, which was regarded as saving Lu Dongzan, but Lu Dongzan obviously lost a lot of blood, so his face was pale and quite weak, and Songtsen Gampo didn't know how much to regret, and swore in his heart that he would never talk to him about this kind of thing from now on, otherwise it would not be as simple as losing a right-hand man.
"You, why did you come to me at this time?" Songtsen Gampo blames Lu Dongzan and blames himself.
Lu Dongzan said: "Of course, I was worried that Zampu would be angry with those people from the gods, so I came here, Zampu must not be out of proportion, what those bastards want is that Zampu is angry, they will definitely be able to profit from it, Zampu must control this feeling, and cannot be used by them." β
Songtsen Gampo sighed deeply and said: "I naturally know that this is not right, my father was angry to death, of course I will pay attention, but in the entire 50,000-person military camp, a general was taken away from the barracks by more than 1,000 thugs, and no one in the 50,000-strong army except his own personal soldiers came to the rescue, watching 50 personal soldiers die in battle, and then he was taken away by the mob, did not anyone resist in the process?"
The Divine Sect is too much, and those people are too excessive, preaching everywhere that we suffered defeat under the hands of the Tang State because we did not obey the will of the gods, and then preached their bullshit doctrine in the army, and directly opposed me, and now they will kill the generals who oppose them, so the next step will be to incite the thugs to kill me, isn't that the purpose of those people?
I really can't bear it any longer, and the army loyal to me can still muster at least 50,000 men. With 50,000 people, you will first eradicate the Divine Sect, and then attack the territory of those bastards, and you will also return to your territory to gather soldiers and horses, and wipe them all out in one fell swoop! I think they have forgotten that it is me who unifies the Great Tibet! Not them! β
Lu Dongzan hurriedly stopped: "Zampu, I told you this three years ago, but you didn't listen, now their strength is not as weak as it was at the beginning, and our strength is not as strong as it was at the beginning, and only 50,000 troops in the entire Great Tibet will obey your orders in this kind of matter." Do you think we still have a chance to win? You must not act rashly! β
Songtsen Gampo punched the ground: "Then what should I do?" Waiting for the Tang Kingdom? The princess of the Tang Kingdom can't get married. We can't get anything we need from the Tang Kingdom, the merchants of the Tang Kingdom are just here to do business, what can they bring us? And if those merchants come to us, won't those bastards draw them into doing business in their territory? As for Buddhism and Taoism in the Tang Kingdom. Did it work? It is not that there are no monks from Tianzhu Kingdom. Aren't they all killed?! β
Lu Dongzan said: "The merchants of the Tang Kingdom will only do business in the city of Luo. This is the result of negotiations between the Tang government and us, and the transaction between the two sides can only be carried out under the supervision of the Tang embassy, and the Tang state recognizes Zampu's status as the lord. They will not have anything to do with other lords, and those merchants will not dare to disobey the orders of the Tang Emperor, so we can rest assured that we can also use our hands and feet on taxes and levy heavy taxes on those under the lords.
As for Buddhism and Taoism in the Tang Kingdom, it is different from the Tianzhu Kingdom, the Tianzhu Kingdom does not have a strong force, those lords are not afraid of the Tianzhu Kingdom at all, the Tianzhu Kingdom is a dozen countries in size, if it is not for the high mountains and the long road, we can also eliminate them, so those Tianzhu monks will be killed.
But the monks of the Tang Kingdom are different, with the Tang Kingdom behind their backs, those lords and the Divine Sect will never dare to do anything to them, otherwise the Tang Emperor will definitely not let them go, if they kill the monks and Taoist priests of the Tang Kingdom, it will be better, the Tang Kingdom will definitely ask for the guilt, we have enough reasons to arrest those of the Divine Sect, and then kill them!
With the Tang State behind their backs, they must have some scruples, there will definitely be temptations at the beginning, and after the contradictions between the two sides are more intensified, we can provoke them, and those ignorant fools can come in handy, kill one or two monks and Taoist priests of the Tang Kingdom, and then the Tang government will definitely ask us to hand over the murderer, and we can do it to the Shenming Sect in the name of the Tang Kingdom, and we can also give an account to the people, which is forced to be helpless.
At that time, what else can the arrogant fools of the Cult of the Gods do? Could it be that they really dared to incite the army to fight to the death with the Tang army? Many troops have seen the strength of the Tang army, and they also know the strength of the Tang State, and once the merchants of the Tang State give us some changes, the reputation of the Tang State will become very good, and at that time, if the Divine Sect encourages everyone to oppose the Tang State, we can watch quietly.
The Han people have a saying called the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman profits, the subordinates feel that this can be used to describe us here, the Shenming Sect and the Tang Kingdom compete, and we are the ones who benefit, once the Shenming Sect angers the Tang Kingdom, we don't need to do it, the Tang Kingdom is estimated that the people of the Shenming Sect will not let go, and at that time, neither the Tang Kingdom nor the Shenming Sect can be compared with us.
The time to completely eradicate the Divine Sect was at that time, as soon as the Divine Sect was eradicated, they could extort confessions by torture, confess all the instigators behind them, and then they could justifiably eradicate those lords, and Zampu could rule the entire Tubo Kingdom openly. β
The more Songtsen Gampo listened, the happier he became, the happier he listened, and the bright future became so vivid and real under Lu Dongzan's words, Songtsen Gampo couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Good! Good! Good! One day, I get the entire Great Tubo Kingdom, I will be the emperor, I will fight against the Tang State, I will be the emperor, you will be the prime minister, we will organize the army, fight outside, fight the Western Regions, fight the Turks, and fight the Tang State, and dominate the world! Hahaha! β
Lu Dongzan lay on the bed, looking at the crazy posture of Songtsen Gampo, and also smiled, hehehe, that's right, if there is really such a day, you should do this, and then, I will be your most powerful assistant, for you to eradicate a person you want to eradicate, the person you want to eradicate, will be the person I want to eradicate, the person I want to eradicate, will be the person you have to eradicate, at that time, even if you don't want to eradicate, it is not up to you to decide......
If you want to make a person perish, you must first make him crazy, father, what you said is so right, this person is really easy to become crazy, he really deserves to be my chosen Zampu, my master, hehehe, I am really looking forward to it, the moment when the merchants of the Tang Kingdom arrive, the moment when the Taoist priests and monks of the Tang Kingdom arrive, that moment is the moment of the transformation of the Great Tubo Kingdom, and at that time, the Divine Sect? Suzerain? Are you opponents? (To be continued......)
