Chapter 421 Boom!
Li Yuandao: "The civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty have just come up with these useless countermeasures? If there is a war on three sides, what should we use to fight? The head?"
Li Shilong felt very embarrassed and helpless. Tubo had an inherent advantage and was easy to defend but difficult to attack.
It cannot be conquered in a short time.
The country has no money and it is difficult to support a protracted war.
By conquering Jiaozhi, the imperial court made a lot of money, but not much.
If you just fight all the way and allocate hundreds of thousands of internal funds, that's fine.
But I'm afraid of a three-way war.
Li Yuan blew his beard and stared in anger, and finally had no choice but to sit back in the rocking chair. He had long wanted to beat Tubo.
But the peace and prosperity has just begun, and I am afraid that this battle will destroy the peace that was finally won.
Li Shilong can endure it. Most of the time, he doesn't want to endure it, but has to endure it.
Didn't he also suffer humiliation? "Father, there is actually a fourth way!" Li Shilong said.
"Can you finish what you want to say at once?" Li Yuan snorted.
"Jingyun, I ask you, if you bring grenades and the cannons produced by Qinzhuang, can you defeat Tibet?" Li Shilong asked.
Several people looked at Qin Mo in unison.
Qin Mo frowned and said: "Yes, it is possible, but the sky is high and the road is far away, so transportation is quite troublesome, and this season, it is much colder there than in the capital.
The most important thing is that if our soldiers go up, their hands and feet will be weak, right? "
"How did you know?" Li Shilong asked in surprise.
"My dad said that!" Qin Mo said, "Didn't I tell you earlier? When my dad came back before, he would brag about his heroic deeds every day, and I was tired of hearing it!"
Only then did Li Shilong understand. Indeed, wasn't Qin Mo's farewell done by Qin Xiangru?
"Okay, don't interrupt Jing Yun!" Li Yuan said.
"Then I will continue." Qin Mo said: "Although I have never fought, my father has. He talks about those tactics to me every day and forces me to memorize them every day. It's very annoying! Tubo is in the southwest, with a high terrain, maybe several kilometers higher than the capital. The higher you go, the thinner the air. People who are not used to living there all year round will definitely have weak hands and feet.
In serious cases, people can die! "
"Yes, it is indeed the case. When Emperor Zhou sent people to attack Tubo, many people died when they went up. They didn't even see the enemy's soldiers, so that piece of land was called a cursed land!" Dou Xuanling said.
Qin Mo sneered, "What a cursed place, there is too little air. As long as it takes a few days to adapt, it will be no problem at all.
Moreover, when the Tubo people came down, they were not necessarily brave, they would also be drunk! "
Du Jingming asked: "What is drunk oxygen?"
"They have lived in Tubo where the air is thin all year round, and suddenly they came to us. Our area has good mountains, water, and good air. They sucked in the oxygen all of a sudden.
However, intoxicated oxygen does not cause high reaction in the eyes. Intoxicated oxygen generally does not kill people. It takes a few days to get used to it and you will be fine. If you want to speed up, wear more masks on your face to reduce air intake and reduce symptoms. "
Although they didn't quite understand it, they felt it made sense.
And at once we found the reason why Emperor Zhou failed to punish Tubo.
"How can you be sure that what you said is right?" Yu Boshi asked. "This is not easy. You should ask the traveling merchants, preferably those traveling between Tubo and Daqian. Ask them if they feel uncomfortable at first, but they will be fine in a few days.
They must understand the local customs, and when their people come down, they will definitely suffer from the oxygen intoxication I mentioned! "
Li Shilong made a gesture, and Gao Shilian quietly left the box.
Gao Yao was also taken away, and she couldn't hear what happened next.
"As long as our soldiers are familiar with the environment, it will be fine. However, this process is difficult to control. If the other side launches a sneak attack, they will definitely lose."
In the parallel time and space, the Tang Dynasty launched many attacks on Tubo from the Sui Dynasty to the Wu Zhao period. In the first year of Xianheng, Tubo defeated the Tang army in Dafeichuan, annexed Tuyuhun, captured Qiuci, which was governed by the Anxi Protectorate, and lost Anxi. Four towns.
In the first year of Changshou, Wu Zhou defeated Tubo, but it was useless. Ten years later, Tubo and Wu Zhou restored their Tang Dynasty married Princess Jincheng to Tubo Zanpu Chide Zuzan, and ceded the land of Jiuqu in Hexi to Tubo as Princess Jincheng's Tangmuyi.
After that, Tubo used this as a base to attack the Tang Dynasty, forcing Tang Dynasty to strengthen the defense of Longyou area in Hexi Province.
In this time and space, there was no Weishui Alliance, but Tubo took advantage of the fire to rob, forcing Li Yuan to marry, and even ceded the land of Jiuqu in Hexi.
At this point in history, there are striking similarities and overlaps.
Although it is only a border area, it is a very important strategic depth. Whoever controls this area will have the initiative in the war.
It's no wonder that Tubo just condemned an envoy to come over, and it was so extreme.
That is the scar in the hearts of two generations, the kind that will turn against anyone who touches it.
But, there are too many enemies and the country is too poor.
Looking at it this way, Daqian is much more difficult than Datang.
"However, if they dare to cause trouble, we have to see if they are strong-willed and blow them up to death!" Qin Mo snorted: "Don't worry, we don't have too many things, we just have too many grenades. We don't have millions of them." Huge, there are hundreds of thousands of them.”
"Tubo claims to have an army of 50. Although this is an exaggeration, I'm afraid there are 40 to 600, and the Tubo population is also [-] to [-] million." Du Jingming said.
"We have a population of 4000 to 60 million and only have more than 600 soldiers. Tubo has a population of [-] to [-] million and has so many soldiers. They are more afraid of failure than us. Once they fail, it will be a huge blow to Tubo.
First of all, Tubo annexed several tribes and several political powers. I don’t believe that they could wear a pair of trousers in such a short period of time.
Brothers stay together every day and still fight. What's more, the stepmother found a stepfather for herself and brought a domineering big brother. Can you be convinced? "
Qin Mo said: "We don't need to worry too much. Dagan lost and still has the capital to make a comeback. Tubo only has one chance.
Let's reason first. If the logic doesn't make sense, use fists. If fists don't make sense, use grenades, and then use cannons to blast the fucker. "
"Yes, just do it!" Li Yuan's original anxiety was gone. Just listening to Qin Mo's words, he felt like he had a chance to win.
Li Shilong's brows also relaxed. Looking at Qin Mo, he felt very happy.
It has to be our son-in-law. He broke up the tense atmosphere with just a few words. Although his words were rough, his words were still very reasonable!
Dou Xuanling and the other three also exchanged looks.
This Qin Jingyun is really a magical person.
It seemed that no matter how big the problem was, he could solve it with a wave of his hand.
