If the battlefield where the two sides fought was hell on earth, then when they walked into the original camp of Tubo, they knew what real hell was.

This was originally a pass, which firmly blocked the main route of Datang's attack on Tubo. The mountain walls on both sides were usually barriers for the camp, but today they became a cage to trap everyone.

Moreover, since it is a large camp, the Tibetans themselves like oily food and fur. Well, with a semi-enclosed area and a lot of combustibles, one can imagine the fate of the Tibetans who stayed behind.

However, these things have nothing to do with Zhang Nuo, his task has been completed before, and now he only needs to rest in the city.

Perhaps it is the welfare of the system. Zhang Nuo's physique is indeed much stronger than the average person. The altitude of this place has actually reached more than 3000 and nearly [-]. But to Zhang Nuo, it seems to be no different from the plain, except when he is panting. Except for a little more effort than usual, there is no other feeling.

This makes people a little envious, whether it's Li Shimin or Cheng Yaojin, they usually feel that they are in good health, but now they can't compare with Zhang Nuoyi.

Especially Li Shimin, he touched his belly, wondering for the first time whether he should practice the exercises given by Zhang Nuo?

Zhang Nuo had given them a body-building exercises long ago, which had no other purpose except to make their bodies healthier.

Li Yuan, Li Shimin and even the Empress Changsun knew about this. Among these few people, Li Yuan practiced the most diligently and had the best results. How can Li Yuan be seen as an old man in his 60s and [-]s now, with black hair and a strong figure? At first glance, he looked like a middle-aged strong man.

Even Empress Changsun practiced more diligently than Li Shimin. Now her body is much better than before, her figure is more graceful and graceful, and her complexion is much better than before.

Only Li Shimin, one is because there are a lot of messy things that take up a lot of his time, and the other is that after becoming the emperor, Li Shimin has to be busy with official duties on weekdays, so he finally has some free time, so why not spend some time? day?

This exercise is naturally a good exercise, but it is tiring to practice. Therefore, since Li Shimin didn't exercise for the first time because he was tired, but silently said "Next time" in his heart, what is waiting for him is Countless times the next time will be sure.

Then, there is no more. At this time, the hidden wounds left by Li Shimin in the early battles have not been repaired, and because of the unreasonable work and rest and unreasonable diet, the whole person has a small belly, his figure is out of shape, and his physical fitness is even worse. Nothing compared to before.

When he wasn't on the battlefield, he couldn't see it, but now that he was on the plateau, his physical fitness was basically revealed.

This made Li Shimin extremely embarrassed. Others may have reasons to say, but he, who obviously has a brilliant and exclusive exercise in his hands, just ignores it, making himself like a cripple now. I have to catch my breath. If I run a few steps, I will probably be too tired to pant like a dog.

Zhang Nuo didn't say anything about him because of this. He knew very well that how a person wants to live is his own choice. Even if you are his friend or brother, you have no right to say anything. After all, it is the person's own choice. Life.

Therefore, facing Li Shimin's panting like a bellows, Zhang Nuo simply pretended not to see it, and went to his room to rest on his own.

They have to rest here for the past few days, and the envoys have to get used to this feeling so that they can deal with the higher-altitude Tubo King City.

However, Zhang Nuo was surprised to find that Changsun Wuji was actually in good health, and his altitude sickness was not as bad as Li Shimin's.

At this time, I am sitting in the room sorting out all the details of the war I just saw, and at the same time deducing what can be improved in the battle situation just now.

Anyway, Zhang Nuo had nothing to do, so he became interested when he saw this, so he just went over to chat with Zhangsun Wuji, it's better than just wandering around with nothing to do.

Moreover, this is not the only thing he wants to talk to Changsun Wuji. He intends to suggest that Li Shimin build a new city directly in the place where the Tubo people built their camp.

Although building a city in such a place is bound to cost a lot of money, the strategic significance contained in it is definitely worth the price, and now that there is an artifact of cement, building a city is actually not that scary.

Changsun Wuji also became interested after hearing Zhang Nuo's ideas. Discussing the war situation before was just a hobby of his.

It is still meaningful to discuss the matter of building the city, so he turned his head and discussed with Zhang Nuo about the cost of building the city, source of population, future development, city positioning and other aspects. This is interesting!

Chapter 716

The discussion between Zhang Nuo and Changsun Wuji was nothing more than a mouthful. After all, even if one of them is the No. 1 civil servant and the other is the king of Qin, it actually comes down to building a city and relocating the population. It's not something that the two of them can decide on the spot.

They can only report the results of their discussions to Li Shimin afterwards, and then wait for Li Shimin to call people together to discuss and make a decision.

And even if it is decided, it cannot be done overnight.

They are actually aware of this, and they are just killing time with this matter.

Time passed slowly in these days when there was no fun to speak of. By accident, it had been ten days since Li Shimin and others came to this small border town.

As for the members of the diplomatic mission, including Li Shimin, not to mention that they have fully adapted to this climate, at least they will not be out of breath after walking two steps and saying a few words like when they first arrived.

From Zhang Nuo's point of view, negotiations can basically be carried out, so don't wait, let's go to Tubo King City for a while, he still wants to go home early.

Li Shimin also felt that it was almost time. He was not only thinking about the physical condition of the envoys, but he also considered whether the few deserters who had escaped from the previous Tubo camp had brought the situation here. Report the matter to the Tubo King City.

If it was before, then he would try to block the news as much as possible, because only in this way can the effect of surprise be achieved. After all, in war, if you can surprise the enemy by surprise, why do you have to be tough?

But this time is different, he is eager for the other party to know, because the purpose of Datang this time is to show force in the past, to prevent them from knowing that Datang has an airship that can fly in the sky and attack.

If Tubo is beaten half to death at that time, they will think it is a punishment from the gods or something, and they will not have the slightest reverence for Datang in their hearts, then it will show a fart of force, it is all a show for the blind. .

Although when the envoys and him went down later, the other party would definitely know who was beating them, but after all, it would be so good if they didn't let them know in advance, and then waited in fear for him to go.

Therefore, he waited slowly, waiting for the envoys and his own body to gradually adapt to the plateau climate, and at the same time he had to constantly take various medicines provided by Zhang Nuo.

He made an estimate, and judging from the information obtained by Datang, the information about the previous battle should have almost reached Tubo King City.

You know, he was "very kind" and asked his sergeant to ride over on horseback to secretly give the other party a ride, and even gave the other two horses.

In fact, just as Li Shimin expected, one of those deserters was a small nobleman. His courage had been completely frightened by the previous battle. He didn't dare to stay on the road at all, for fear that Datang would catch up along the road. , so he really ran all the way back to Wangcheng day and night.

A little nobleman who was on duty at the front line came back from the front line. No matter how he tried to cover it up, he couldn't hide it. Therefore, he was taken to the royal court and thrown directly in front of Songtsan Gambo and Lu Dongzan. .

And after he repeated what he had experienced and seen three times, the entire top management in Tubo was completely speechless.

Everyone present had only one thought in mind at this moment, the sky was about to fall, and the people of Tang Dynasty were coming to take revenge.

Lu Dongzan was the first to calm down. He asked again based on the experience that the little noble said just now, but this time he asked all the details, and he didn't even let go of any clues. In the end, don't say anything. That little nobleman, even Zamp Songtsen Gampo sitting on the throne is annoying, but he is still young and respects the prime minister very much, so it is not easy to object directly, so after hesitating for a while, he said tactfully ,

"Great Minister, let's first consider how to resist Datang's upcoming attack!"

Lu Dongzan shook his head and said seriously,

"No, the first thing we need to consider is how to protect ourselves!"

Everyone was stunned when the words came out. Although the little noble just said something scary, in fact, what they were most worried about was that the other party suddenly appeared and gave them a shot. Wang Cheng came, that was too unrealistic, how could it be possible.
