Datang: God-level son-in-law, salted fish will become stronger

Not only that.

Qin Mu develops fine salt, promotes potatoes, develops business, and destroys the family...

To Qin Mu, it's not surprising that major events in the world are like commonplace.

In Songtsan Gampo's heart, Qin Mu was already a god-like figure.

A large part of the reason why he willingly surrendered to Datang was because of Qin Mu.

According to the speed of Tang Dynasty's development, it will be a matter of time before Tubo is annexed.

Instead of this, it is better to be willing to surrender.

Under the protection of Datang, Tubo will surely become more prosperous.

Although Songtsan Gampo had never looked at Qin Mu since he entered the Liangyi Hall.

But it's been a long time.

But he didn't quite understand why such a person who disturbed the situation was sitting alone in the corner.

Songtsan Gampo wanted to come.

After all, Qin Mu is a man under one man, above ten thousand people, like a prince and general.

But in this palace, Qin Mu has the lowest sense of presence.

Li Er got up and said loudly: "Since the matter has been discussed, I will allow Tubo to merge into the Great Tang. From now on, Tubo will be my Great Tang, a sacred and inviolable territory."

Hearing this, Songtsan Gampo looked excited, stepped forward and saluted, "Your servant, accept your orders."

Civil and military officials followed suit to congratulate.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, His Majesty."

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, His Majesty."

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, His Majesty."

......

The north wind howls, and the snow falls in Chang'an.

After Songtsan Gampo returned to the post house to rest for a day, he was invited to the palace by Li Er again.

This time, it was to put down the Tubo rebellion.

Chang'an City.

Royal Palace.

Wude Hall.

A huge Tubo map is hanging in the hall.

Songtsan Gampo looked at the map in the palace, his heart tightened.

Fortunately, the surrender was early. It seems that Li Er has not been thinking about Tubo for a day or two.

"See Your Majesty."

Songtsan Gampo looked at Li Er who was studying the map, and cupped his hands.

Li Er looked back at him, in a good mood, "You came just in time, and you come and tell everyone how this battle will be fought."

"It's Your Majesty."

Songtsan Gampo responded, his eyes swept across Qin Mu who was on the side.

Young, lazy, without aura, with a harmless face.

It was hard for Songtsan Gampo to imagine how Qin Mu could be connected with Shura.

Going forward, Songtsan Gampo scanned the map and pointed to a place on the map, "Nowadays, there are constant internal disputes in Tubo, and the available army in the hands of the ministers is only [-]. Among them, the two tribes of Yangtong and Subi are the most difficult to deal with."

"Now, they have reached an offensive and defensive alliance, and they want to join forces to dominate the plateau. As long as Yangtong and Supi are eliminated, the dispute between Tubo and Tibet will end."

Hearing this, everyone's eyes fell on Songtsan Gampo's finger.

"Yang Tong, Su Pi..."

Li Er looked at the map and muttered to himself.

The situation in Tubo was investigated by Li Eryu yesterday.

Songtsan Gampo's father, Nangri Songtsan, relied on the strength of the original Subi nobles such as Zanggu, Yuzebu, Zhongbo, etc., and merged the Jiqu River Basin and other places, and his strength became stronger and stronger.

Nangri Songtsan also gave these noble territories and slaves to support their development.

But in this way, the status of these new nobles surpassed the status of the old nobles.

Although the royal power was thus enhanced, it violated the interests of the old nobles and aroused the dissatisfaction of the old Tubo officials.

Therefore, with hatred in their hearts, they plotted rebellion.

A few months ago, the old nobles rebelled.

Dabo, Gongbo, Niangbo and other places were occupied by rebels.

Yangtong in the west of Tubo and the enemy Subi and the old nobles of Tubo secretly communicated with each other, and cooperated with each other from inside to outside, and killed Songtsan Gampo's father, Nangri Songtsan.

After Nangri Songtsan died, the situation in Tubo became more complicated.

At the same time, Prince Supi returned to Tibet and took the opportunity to carry out the "restoration" activity.

He joined forces with the old nobles of Subi to drive out the officials and garrisons of Jongpo Pangse.

And sent troops to attack Tubo.

It can be seen that the crisis facing the Tubo king is unprecedented.

Tubo has internal and external troubles.

The pressure on Songtsan Gampo was enormous.

That's why he had to ask for help everywhere.

Fortunately, Songtsan Gampo's uncle, Lun Keer and the prime minister, are both talented generals who stand alone.

On Keer led his troops to stick to the Qiongjie and Zedang areas in the south of Shannan.

The prime minister still fought against the old nobles in the palace in Luoxie City.

Only then did Songtsan Gampo gain time for his mission to the Tang Dynasty.

Father, like son.

Li Er has seen the situation very clearly.

Indeed, as Songtsan Gampo said, as long as Yangtong and Subi are destroyed, the confidence of the old Tubo nobles will no longer exist.

The disputes among the various ministries of Tubo would also end accordingly.

"Qin Mu, tell me what you think, how to fight this battle."

Li Er looked at Qin Mu at the side and said quietly.

In addition to letting Qin Mu analyze the wave, he has another intention, which is to let Songtsan Gampo see the power of the Great Tang Prince Consort.

After returning to Tubo, don't worry about it.

Chapter 228: Military Power and Political Power (1/4)

Hearing this, Songtsan Gampo's curious eyes fell on Qin Mu.

Qin Mu was indeed not as he appeared on the surface, harmless to humans and animals.

The fact that Li Er was the first to ask Qin Mu was enough to prove his weight in Li Er's heart.

Qin Mu pointed to Yangtong on the map, "Songtsan Gampo Tsampo, you only need to order General Lun Keer to lead the Tubo army to continue to hold Qiongjie and resist the Yangtong army."

"My Tang Dynasty dispatched [-] troops from Luoxi City to attack Subi in the north. Within three months, Subi will be defeated."

"After defeating Su Pi, the remaining Yangtong will not be able to make a fortune. No matter how Zanpu handles them, the Yangtong will not be able to resist."

Qin Mu said lightly that he really didn't have much interest in this kind of crushing battle.

Once the Tang Dynasty sent troops to help Tubo.

No matter how this battle is fought, the balance of victory will be tilted towards Tubo.

Songtsan Gampo nodded, "Master Qin Mu is right. It is indeed the best way to defeat them one by one. If His Majesty sends troops to help Tubo, there will be no accidents in this battle."

Songtsan Gampo was not too surprised.

There is really not much to discuss in the battle of wealth.

After saying that, Qin Mu raised his head and looked at Songtsan Gampo, "However, I want to remind Zanpu that if Tubo is incorporated into the Tang Dynasty, the Tubo lord slavery may not be able to adapt to the development of the Tang Dynasty."

At this time in the Tang Dynasty, because Li Er abolished the feudal system, the princes would be sent to various states to serve as governors, and they were frequently transferred, so they could not be hereditary. This was an old habit in the Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties.

It is also a bloody lesson learned from all dynasties and generations.

The vassal king is really not a good thing, but the Han Dynasty was a real enfeoffment.

Therefore, the vassal king of the Tang Dynasty had no fiefdom, but only a title.

Although in the middle and late Tang Dynasty, the vassal kings were also ruled by separatists, and cholera ruled the court.

However, these rebellions were basically rebellions by envoys at various festivals.

All of this is the word military power.

"My lord, what do you mean..."

Listening to Qin Mu's abrupt words, Songtsan Gampo was a little confused.

Just now we were still discussing the war in Tubo, but we jumped to the political system of Tubo so quickly.

It really made Songtsan Gampo almost lose track of the rhythm.

But Li Er on the side nodded proudly.

Changsun Wuji, Li Jing, and Du Ruhui all showed their admiration.

In this war, anyone can see the victory or defeat, it is nothing more than a question of how to win.

From now on, how Tubo will be governed is the reason why Li Er called Songtsan Gampo and a few of them to come here.

Qin Mu pondered and said: "National disputes, one is the uprising of the people, and the other is the dispersal of military power. These two are the most important. The reason why there are constant disputes among the various tribes in Tubo, in the final analysis, is a word of power."

"The political power is too great, and the military power is too heavy. This has formed a situation of self-respect, whether it is the old aristocrats or the new aristocrats."

"When they seize power and expand their territory, they will definitely cooperate with Zanpu's actions and be loyal to you. However, once the situation is stable and the rights are in hand, it will not be so easy for you to get them back in the future."

"In addition, some tyrannical new nobles have caused conflicts between the people and the nobles. In this way, the new nobles will become the old nobles, and Zanpu needs to find new nobles to put down the rebellion of the old nobles."

"This cycle will consume the national power of Tubo."

"Zanpu can think about how much the high degree of autonomy of the tribes in Tubo has brought to Tubo, and how much harm it has brought to Tubo."

As soon as these words came out, Songtsan Gampo froze instantly.

(°-°〃)

He stared blankly at Qin Mu in disbelief.

Songtsan Gampo has already studied the national conditions of Tubo.

And the way of thinking is quite different from Qin Mu's, that is, not as thorough as Qin Mu's analysis.

Qin Mu can be said to be a fig leaf to pierce Tubo with one word.

Shake off the national conditions of Tubo.

The most important thing is that Songtsan Gampo is very afraid. Has Qin Mu studied Tubo to this extent?

Political, military, institutional...

All covered.

If Songtsan Gampo did not come to Datang to surrender this time, it is estimated that Qin Mu will take the Tang army to Luoxi City as a guest in the future.

Only then did he understand what it meant to know himself better than himself.

Songtsan Gampo looked into Qin Mu's eyes.
