Chapter 394 War, a sudden drop
The three-day banquet will bring joy to the whole city.

There are still ashes of burning firecrackers left on the streets, and beautiful ribbons are hung on the branches. The people took off their costumes and put on ordinary clothes to return to their previous life, but their faces still couldn’t conceal the look of their bodies. The pride of the Tang people.

ding ding~
The bell swayed in the breeze, and the crisp sound swayed on the long street.

Soldiers in saffron robes and shoulder armor were humped on the tall camels, and the unchanging felt hats were particularly conspicuous in the morning light.

Zimin wandering or hanging out on the long street took the initiative to let the road go, parked on the side of the street and watched the gorgeous chariots and camel teams slowly passing by.

"The Tubo camel caravan? Why did they come to our country again?"

"Hmph! These barbarians must have seen us take down Tuyuhun, and they were afraid of the might of the Tang Dynasty soldiers, and they were afraid that they would come to pay tribute to intercede."

"For these savages, we shouldn't be soft-hearted. Thinking of the humiliation these savages have done to us before, our teeth itch with hatred."

"What's there to hate? Didn't you come here in despair before?"

People on the street praised and criticized this trip, and the voice of discussion was like a gust of wind blowing into the curtain of the car. Lu Anzan, who was sitting on the soft couch, curled up his thick lips and cracked a smile.

"It seems that many Tang people are unhappy with our trip."

The figure on the seat opposite raised his arm to lift the car curtain, cast a glance at Dong Hang's pointing people, his eyes narrowed, and he lowered the curtain.

Back in the dark carriage, the guard responded coldly.

"The war in the Western Territory must have spread to the imperial city by now, and let these people see clearly their current situation."

"Tuyuhun goes round and round, and the biggest winner is their Tang Dynasty or our Tubo."

……

Tai Chi Temple.

The happy face just ended yesterday, and today is the first time to go to court, and many courtiers still have joyful smiles on their faces.

When the court meeting was in progress, a piece of the west frontier pass [-] li rushed into the imperial city and presented it to Li Shimin, who was sitting high on the dragon seat.

The tiger's eyes briefly glanced at the battle report, and when he pressed the palm of the hand resting on the armrest of the dragon seat, his veins twitched.

Bang!
The clenched fist suddenly smashed down, and Li Shimin suddenly got up angrily from the dragon seat.

"The barbarians of Tubo, despicable and shameless, dare to attack Tuyuhun while my Tang soldiers are retreating!"

"Shameless! Despicable!"

The faces of the officials in the court changed drastically, and everyone was shocked.

One is the shock and the fact that Tubo turned out to be the same as the former and the latter. On the face of it, he handed over the certificate of in-laws to the Tang Dynasty, but behind the scenes, he betrayed his promise and turned against Tuyuhun who had just surrendered to the Tang Dynasty.

Second, it was the first time for the ministers to have such a big anger from the usually calm and calm king.

Pooh!
Yuchi Jingde spat hard, dragged his clattering armor and hurried out of the row, knelt in the hall and clasped his fists.

"His Majesty."

"This group of lowly savages cannot be trusted! I am willing to lead a bowl of soldiers and horses alone, go straight to Huanglong, and capture the man from the plateau palace alive, and ask for an explanation."

"I hope His Majesty will grant you!"

After the words fell, Su Dingfang walked out of the crowd.

"Your Majesty, a scholar can be killed but not humiliated!"

"These Tubo barbarians are nothing more than foxtails in the wind. The veteran is also willing to lead an army, kill the plateau, and take down this unknowing country in one fell swoop, and let them know the capabilities of our Tang warriors."

"Wait a minute!"

A word interrupted the two of them, and Fang Xuanling walked out from the rank of civil servants, his eyes collided with two surprised eyes, and his face turned gloomy.

"Now the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty have just returned in triumph, and they have traveled thousands of miles, which has already exhausted the soldiers physically and mentally."

"If the generals are recalled at this time, there will be no problem in participating in the war, but how can these soldiers support them?"

"You can bear the long distances and the extremely cold weather, but how can those generals and soldiers endure this continuous battle?"

The eldest grandson Wuji, the head of civil servants, gritted his teeth and slowly stood in the center of the hall.

"That's right, continuous raids and battles, not to mention whether our soldiers can support it, but where in the treasury can we keep fighting?"

"It's the end of April and the beginning of May, and the grain and grass have not yet reached the harvest time. Even if we add grain and grass, how will the people of our country live in the next few months?"

"Damn it!"

As a noble royal family, Li Xiaogong was also offended by such actions, and couldn't help but swear in this solemn and solemn hall.

"It's time to send troops to the south in the first place, and get rid of these barbarian bastards together, so as to avoid these farces!"

"The generals of the Western Expedition are currently taking a rest, but it doesn't mean that we have no soldiers or generals in the Tang Dynasty!"

"These veterans in our court are old-hearted, and their old arms and legs can still move. I don't mind going to the plateau for a walk!"

Call ~
The lovelorn slowly took a breath, frowned, pressed his big hand on Li Xiaogong's shoulder, and patted it lightly.

"Hejian County King, please be safe and don't be impatient. This matter is not as simple as an impulsive conquest."

"Tuyuhun came in while taking advantage of the situation. He definitely wasn't impulsive. There must be a conspiracy behind it. You might as well figure it out first before discussing it."

"Nowadays in the Tang Dynasty, there are many foreign envoys, and many eyes will definitely focus on this, and they will rush to conquer from thousands of miles away. If it is not successful, the vast military power established by the Great Tang to conquer Tuyuhun will collapse in an instant, and Tuyuhun will follow the momentum even more. Let us go to Tang Dynasty."

Taking two steps slowly, Gao Shilian saluted the angry Li Shimin at the head of the hall, and said slowly.

"His Majesty."

"This matter must not be acted impulsively, and a long-term plan is needed."

"Looking for a letter from His Majesty, explaining the reason and stabilizing the position of Datang."

Li Shimin, who is not in doubt, has long retreated from the childishness of his youth in several years of governing the country. Even if the anger is rising in his heart, he secretly suppresses it at this moment, and thinks carefully about the words of several courtiers.

After stomping a few steps slowly, Li Shimin sat down on the dragon seat slowly, frowned slightly for a while, and spoke slowly.

"What Shen Guogong said is not without reason."

"In the battle of Tuyuhun, even though a hundred horsemen opened the way, the number of Tang soldiers killed on the desert ice sheet has actually exceeded the loss of the war. Tubo is a dynasty that has been on the plateau for several years, and there are many mountains. If it is head-on, whether it can destroy the country in one fell swoop unknown."

"In addition, the people of the Tang Dynasty are full of pride in their hearts, and more neighboring countries are also sitting on the hills and watching the tiger at this moment, and they still need to be on guard!"

"Come on, a letter of state, I really want to see what kind of tricks these barbarians are trying to play!"

report~
The voice sounded from outside the main hall, and the scout's words interrupted Li Shimin's words.

In the eyes, a figure in a silver and white armor hurried into the hall, half kneeling on the ground.

"His Majesty!"

"The Tubo envoy is seeking an audience outside the palace."

boom!
The whole court was in dispute.

"Damn it, these envoys dare to come!"

"It's like eating a bear's heart and a leopard's guts. Why don't you drag it out and chop it up, let them know the price of provocation!"

"What's the use of killing a few villains? At this moment, it's time to send troops to the south and wipe out these barbarians in one fell swoop!"

"Show me the military power of the Tang Dynasty, kill these barbarians, and sacrifice the flag to our soldiers."

Hearing the word 'Tubo', Li Shimin's face beat with displeasure.

Slowly clenched his fist, Li Shimin squeezed his fist slightly, and squeezed out annoyed words from the corners of his lips.

"Xuan!"
