Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The spy in front half-knelt on the ground: "No, the other party doesn't seem to have any intention of letting the king go."

    Lu Dongzan raised his head, his face uncertain: "Zhao Chen, what do you want to do?"

    When Songtsen Gampo attacked Tuyuhun, everything went smoothly and the harvest was very rich. However, after Zhao Chen arrived, everything turned around.

    The 50,000 elite Tibetan soldiers they brought over were completely wiped out. What¡¯s even more terrible is that Songtsen Gampo himself was captured.

    Now the news was irresistible and spread throughout Tubo. The old nobles and other ministers, as well as the tribes that had surrendered before, all knew that they had a king who was captured by the Tang Dynasty.

    This was a fatal blow to Songtsen Gampo¡¯s prestige.

    Lu Dongzan also sent someone to negotiate with Zhao Chen, but as expected, Zhao Chen directly rejected the negotiation and said that he would contact him again when the time comes.

    To be honest, Lu Dongzan has dealt with so many people, and the most elusive one is this Zhao Chen.

    Lu Dongzan now had several paths to take before him, and he was not sure which path to take. Should he continue to negotiate with Zhao Chen and bring Songtsen Gampo back, or should he support Songtsen Gampo's younger brother to ascend to power?  ?

    Or, there is a third way

    Ludongzan was also hesitant. Every road here was risky, and time did not allow him to delay it. The old nobles were already ready to make a move, and they publicized Songtsen Gampo's failure in the country, which was a blow to him and said that it would bring down the whole country.  Tubo already wanted to rebel.

    The tribes that surrendered, such as the Yangtong and Qiang tribes, were also on the sidelines and did not send anyone over immediately.

    "As long as I can't handle it well, the Tubo regime will be replaced or even directly disintegrated, and the unified situation established by Songtsen Gampo will disappear again.

    While he was deep in thought, footsteps hurriedly came from outside.

    "What happened?"

    Lu Dongzan asked.

    "it's me!"

    An old voice appeared, and an old man wearing an old aristocratic dress appeared. His face was full of wrinkles, and his eyes were full of anger.

    "Well, Ludongzan, you knew about such an important situation and didn't report it! From today on, we in Tubo will not have the king Songtsen Gampo!"

    Lu Dongzan said in a deep voice: "Garizan, what are you talking about?"

    "What did I say? You should first ask the people of the Tang Dynasty what they did. Songtsan Gampo was dragged through the streets with excrement all over his body. It was not his face that was shamed, but our Tubo faces!  "

    "You didn't tell me such important information. Hum, let me tell you, even if Songtsen Gampo comes back, he can't even think about sitting on the throne again. From tomorrow on, a meeting of elders will be held to elect a new king.  !¡±

    Watching the other party leave, Lu Dongzan's expression was uncertain.

    "You're so cruel, Zhao Chen."

    And Lu Dongzan's eyes also flashed with a fierce light. With the current situation and status, he must not give up easily. So far, there are only second and third roads.

    But at this time, another soldier quickly came to report.

    "Lord Dongzan, an envoy from the Tang Army is here."

    Lu Dongzan frowned: "What do you mean?"

    "Sir, the envoy from the Tang Army is here. He is waiting outside now."

    Was it sent by Zhao Chen?

    Lu Dongzan thought about it and decided to meet him.

    The person who came was an ordinary Tang envoy. When he saw Lu Dongzan, he directly raised his hands and said, "I am here to deliver the news on the order of Mr. Zhao."

    "what news?"

    "He wants to make two transactions with you. The first transaction is Songtsan Gampo. Mr. Zhao can let Songtsan Gampo go back to Tibet. Mr. Zhao said that his purpose has been achieved. After letting Songtsan Gampo parade, the whole  Tuyuhun¡¯s tribe has eliminated Tubo¡¯s influence.¡±

    Lu Dongzan frowned again. At this time, Zhao Chen actually wanted to let Songtsan Gampo go?

    For a moment, Lu Dongzan felt hesitant in his heart again.

    "What conditions? Since you, Mr. Zhao, are so smart, it is impossible not to mention conditions."

    The Tang envoy said: "Mr. Zhao has made a condition. He wants a thousand cattle and a thousand sheep, and he must pay them in advance."

    "This condition is okay, but I don't believe in Mr. Zhao's character."

    Don¡¯t trust anyone who trusts Zhao Chen, otherwise you will be eaten by him and turned into bones, and you will have to help him count his money.

    "Mr. Zhao said that there is a second transaction,In this transaction, you can hand over the people and pay the money. Do you want more than 10,000 elite Tibetan soldiers captured, Lord Ludongzan?  "

    This time, Lu Dongzan¡¯s expression changed.

    "Mr. Zhao said that Tubo must be seriously injured. These more than 10,000 elite soldiers are very important to Tubo, so the price is relatively high this time. Ten thousand cattle and sheep are needed. One elite soldier is exchanged for one cow or sheep. One hand is for people, and the other is for others.  Money, paid in one lump sum.¡±

    After hearing Zhao Chen¡¯s condition, Lu Dongzan felt at ease. Zhao Chen¡¯s lion opened his mouth, which made him feel at ease.

    This proves that Zhao Chen really wants to make this deal.

    "When can I release him?"

    The Tang envoy said: "It depends on when Lord Lu Dongzan's thousand cattle and sheep will arrive."

    "Now you can."

    Lu Dongzan called his subordinate and asked him to count the cattle and sheep, and asked the Tang envoy to take them back directly.

    "Also, you can send a message to Zhao Chen, saying that a gentleman keeps his word."

    "OK."

    When the Tang envoy left, Lu Dongzan's face was still uncertain, and the thoughts in his heart were cut off again, because he knew that Songtsen Gampo's ability was much superior to him. As long as Songtsen Gampo came back, then  Tubo can become strong again.

    ¡­¡­

    The news came back to Zhao Chen.

    Zhao Chen held up his folding fan: "When you proposed the first deal, what was Lu Dongzan's expression like?"

    "He was frowning and hesitating."

    Zhao Chen laughed: "What a Lu Dongzan, I really can't tell. Songtsen Gampo, look, your dear and capable general Lu Dongzan is actually not very willing to trade your life."

    Songtsan Gampo sat aside. He had already been cleaned. Even though there were wine and food in front of him, Songtsan Gampo did not move his chopsticks.

    "Brother Songtsan, why don't you say anything? You are my true love and my sibling."

    Songtsan Gampo looked at Zhao Chen coldly: "This does not depend on me, but on you."

    Zhao Chen smiled and turned to look at the Tang envoy again: "Have a thousand cattle and sheep arrived?"

    "It's already here."

    Zhao Chen said oh, then opened the folding fan and looked at Songtsen Gampo with a smile.

    Qin Qiong, Qin Huaidao and others standing in the room were watching this scene silently.

    "Brother Songtsan, eat quickly, don't be stunned."

    "You let me go after I eat it?"

    "Of course."

    Zhao Chen smiled and said: "I will definitely send you back. Believe me, you don't have to worry about my character." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
