The capital of Tubo, some cities. In the palace, Songtsan Gampo looked at the battle report, and the veins on his neck were faintly visible. As early as five days ago, he received the news that all Tang troops had entered the plateau. What the other party's intention was, Songtsan Gampo could guess with his butt. Therefore, he only did one thing these days, and that was to order conscription. The system of Tubo is the slave system of several Yuanshi. There are more than 70% of the population in the country, and less than 30% are slaves of nobles. Even those private soldiers raised by nobles are actually mostly slaves. In the previous battle of Ludongzan, all 150,000 troops were wiped out. Among the 150,000 people, at least half, in the words of the Tang Dynasty, were regarded as good sons of Tubo.
Such a loss made Songtsen Gampo's heart bleed. After that battle, there were only 250,000 troops left in Tubo. "Twenty Three" Songtsan Gampo mobilized the nobles of the whole country to reward them heavily for conscription. It has already managed to mobilize all the soldiers of the whole country, but it has only reorganized an army of 400,000. Compared with the previous army that made great achievements in the process of unifying Tubo. At this time, the Tubo army can only be regarded as a mob at best. However, the Tubo people are not without advantages. They are fighting locally and are inherently immune to air epidemics. However, the army of the Tang people could not overcome the qi epidemic in a short period of time, and the number was far smaller than that of the army revealed. Under the ebb and flow, Songtsen Gampo is still very confident in this battle. An idea was born in his mind that was the same as that of Lu Dongzan back then. The advantage is mine! Of course, this is not enough to reassure Songtsen Gampo. In Songtsan Gampo's previous plan, even if Songzhou was defeated in the first battle, it was actually not a big crisis for Tubo. The big deal is to return to the plateau and recharge your batteries. But who would have thought that the commander-in-chief of the Tang Dynasty he met this time was a lunatic. He praised Lu Dong to Karma, and it seems that he is still not satisfied. Then he went all the way to the plateau, and it seemed that there was a plan to destroy it in a battle. This made Songtsen Gampo extremely angry!
However, he was helpless. Gambling on the fate of the country with a small chance to make a big fortune is like a one-shot deal like a chicken. Become popular and drink hot food, lose it, and it will be lost. Datang is the proudest country Songtsen Gampo has ever seen. An ordinary citizen can boast in front of him, the lord of a country, and even show contempt for him inadvertently. Not to mention, Songtsan Gampo's arrogance and respectfulness this time has completely enraged the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. Songtsan Gampo knew very well that Tubo could not bear Tang's anger at all. If he can't resist Datang's attack this time, then his end will be death! Only by surviving can you be eligible to raise conditions! Although he believed that his side had a great advantage, Songtsen Gampo still did not dare to take it lightly. He ran to the camps of the tribes who signed the covenant with him before School Disciple. After Lu Dongzan's defeat, Songtsan Gampo knew that the previous paper covenant had actually existed in name only. In the past, the various tribes only looked forward to Tubo, but now they are afraid to avoid Tubo. If I were them, I would definitely take advantage of Tang Jun's attack and fish in the living water, and the wolf would want a mouthful of fat on Ye Can. In the northwest region, everyone believes in the law of the jungle. When wolves eat meat, they don't care whether the meat is stained with the saliva of other beasts. As a small country in a foreign country, Songtsen Gampo understands this mentality very well. However, he is still sure to convince those tribes. The reason is very simple, the death of the rabbit and the sorrow of the fox! Don't you all feel shivering when the Tang Dynasty attacked Tubo today? If Datang got out of hand and decided to expand its territory fiercely, which tribes would end up with Tubo sooner or later. Songtsan Gampo believed that those people would not fail to understand the truth of the death of the lips and the coldness of the teeth. Only when there is still a certain advantage now, the tribes unite. Just for the tribes that Songtsen Gambo recruited this time, if they get together, a million troops can still be assembled. Such a force, at least when it is on its own territory, will never be defeated by Tang Jun. Fifty thousand to one million, it can be called the battle with the largest disparity in the number of people in the history of the Zhu Xia War. No matter how strong the Tang army is, it will not be possible for one person to kill twenty aliens on the battlefield. As long as he survives this wave of attacks from Datang, there will be a lot of room for turning around in retrospect.
Just now, Songtsen Gampo received the latest news.... The Tang army had already set out and left Tuyuhun. Songtsen Gampo was very sure that just a few days was not enough for Tang Jun to overcome the problem of the epidemic. The commander-in-chief of the Tang army was so anxious that he directly attacked Tubo without solving this problem. Songtsan Gampo not only didn't feel angry, but felt elated. It is his greatest opportunity for the opponent to underestimate the enemy so much. Songtsan Gambo estimated in his heart that he still had at least two months to deal with the Tang army who was driving straight in. Wanting to understand the joints, Songtsan Gampo couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief. On the other side, various tribes are in the camps of Tubo, Ba Ye Guzhang looked at the envoy in front of him with an inexplicable expression. This envoy was the one sent by Songtsan Gampo to request the various tribes to unite with Tubo. The Tubo envoy explained in the future that the leaders of the various tribes in the tent all looked at each other in blank dismay. Just two days ago, they also received a letter from the envoy they took to Chang'an at the same time. The emperor of the Tang Dynasty actually rejected all the requests of these envoys to see him. What is the meaning behind this, naturally needless to say. For a time, a shadow was cast over the hearts of all the leaders of the tribes. Although they did covet Datang before, but before they had time to push forward, the Tibetans were rubbed on the ground by Datang's army. At this time, no matter how big-hearted the tribal leader is, he knows that Datang is not something he can get his hands on. In particular, I think of the Tang army that recently drove straight on the plateau and went straight to Tubo. Everyone was trembling at the moment! Didn't you say that Tang Dynasty is a state of etiquette? How could you hold grudges like this! Many people even feel that they shouldn't be greedy and participate in such things from the very beginning. Stealing the chicken is not going to work now, on the contrary, it has caused a lot of trouble, and the gain outweighs the loss. At this moment, their hearts were already filled with panic. "The Great Tang's refusal of the envoy we sent out means that the Emperor Great Tang has no intention of reconciling with us at all. "For a Tubo, it's not worth such a big fight. I suspect that Datang also regards us as a target." "Even so, we absolutely cannot form an alliance with Tubo. Otherwise, we will be the second to die."
