Cheng Yaojin hastened to pray.

"His Royal Highness, even though the Tubo army was destroyed, Lun Qinling and the great sages were put to death, but Songtsan Gampo is still alive, and the opponent may make a comeback at any time. If we don't deter them, I'm afraid the opponent's heart will not die."

Li Kuan laughed lightly, and then praised.

"General Cheng is worthy of being a warrior of the Tang Dynasty, he thought of going with me."

Cheng Yaojin was puzzled, Li Kuan said again.

"General Cheng, the Tubo army has been defeated by us at this moment, and this is really the weakest moment for the Tubo kingdom. If you don't mind the hardships of running around, I hope you can lead your troops to attack Tubo and bring the whole of Tubo into our Tang territory. Then you He is a first-class hero, worshiped by hundreds of officials."

Hearing Li Kuan's words, Cheng Yaojin was completely dumbfounded.

His original intention was not to attack Tubo, but to send troops to Tubo, and then negotiate with Tubo, asking for money, materials, land and people.

But Li Kuan was lucky, he didn't even have to negotiate directly, and he came up to attack Tubo, one was to negotiate as an envoy, and the other was to directly attack, the difference was too big.

Moreover, although this battle was a great victory, Tubo's land is vast and its people are strong. It is almost impossible to completely destroy Tubo.

Thinking of this, Cheng Yaojin showed embarrassment on his face, and said to Li Kuan helplessly.

"His Royal Highness, it is too difficult for me to completely take down Tubo, even an impossible task. I hope you think twice about such a heavy task."

Hearing Cheng Yaojin's evasive words, Li Kuan said with a bit of resentment.

"A dignified general, who has no ambition and no future, is in vain for my cultivation in the Tang Dynasty."

The corner of Cheng Yaojin's mouth twitched when he said this.

He is a dignified duke of the state of Lu, a general of hussars, to be reprimanded by Li Kuan like this, and he still thinks he is a waste. If Li Kuan didn't say this, Cheng Yaojin would have picked up his two axes and slashed at him desperately.

But when Li Kuan called him a waste, Cheng Yaojin could only bear it.

Bai Qi, Zi Luan and Xie Ranran just walked in from the door, they heard the conversation just now clearly, Bai Qi laughed loudly.

"Old Cheng, why did His Highness the Crown Prince reprimand you again, and also called you a waste, isn't that telling the truth?"

Cheng Yaojin was so angry that his teeth were itchy, why did he add the word "you", this was clearly not giving face.

"His Royal Highness asked me to destroy Tubo. I couldn't do it, so His Royal Highness reprimanded him. If General Bai has the ability, you might as well try it. I don't mind handing over the military power to you."

Hearing this, the corners of Bai Qi's mouth also began to twitch.

Attack Tubo. . . .

No wonder Cheng Yaojin was criticized by Li Kuan, even when Bai Qi heard the news, he couldn't help but feel a pain in his head, thinking it was a mess.

Tubo is located in a vast area, and it is not easy to destroy its core strength.

Li Kuan even directly said that he wanted to destroy Tubo, and even opened his mouth, this is not a joke.

It is absolutely impossible for Bai Qi to destroy Tubo in a short time.

Bai Qi couldn't help looking at Li Kuan, he wanted to ask a question.

"His Royal Highness, is it possible that your madness has occurred again? Why did you start talking nonsense?"

This request is too much.

Li Kuan seemed to feel the deep meaning in Bai Qi's eyes, and asked with raised eyebrows.

"Why? Do you think this request is too much?"

Bai Qi complained inwardly.

"It's more than excessive, it's simply out of line."

Thinking this way in his heart, Bai Qi didn't dare to say that on the surface, so he straightened his wording and said.

"His Royal Highness, although the Tubo army has been wiped out by us, its national strength is already strong. In addition, the Tubo people are free, brave and good at fighting, and they can gather a powerful force in a short period of time. You let General Cheng attack rashly and destroy Tubo. It’s an extremely difficult thing.”

Bai Qi was telling the truth, not to mention letting Cheng Yaojin go, even if he was allowed to go there in person, he would not be sure to destroy Tubo, and it would be even more impossible to destroy Tubo in a short time.

With a helpless look on Li Kuan's face, he said angrily.

"Confused, you are really confused!"

"The 20 main force of Tubo has now become slaves. Their strongest elite has been wiped out by us. Now is the weakest time. When the Tubo people know that the front line is defeated, their morale will drop sharply and the people's hearts will be in chaos,"

"If you don't attack on this matter, then you have missed the best opportunity, but you say you can't destroy Tubo. Isn't this to increase the ambition of others and destroy your own prestige? If you miss this good opportunity, it will be too late to regret later."

There is nothing wrong with saying this, and there is no problem to be found, but when it comes to implementation, it is not so easy.

Although Tubo is located on a plain, it is even more difficult to find the city-state in the vast land.

Everyone knows the topography of the Tang Dynasty like the back of their hands, but they know little about the topography of Tubo.

Where the tribes of Tubo were established, where the city-state was, and where the royal court was located, no one knew, not even many aborigines in Tubo.

So whether it is Cheng Yaojin or Bai Qi, they are not sure that they will win Tubo in a short time.

Only by knowing your enemy and yourself can you win a hundred battles, but if you don't even know where the opponent's base camp is, there is no way to fight this battle.

Chapter 330 Nine Useless Generals

Seeing the tangled expressions of Bai Qi and Cheng Yaojin, Li Kuan knew that they couldn't do this, so he couldn't help frowning.

Although there are men's blood in the frontier, but there is no palace joy, staying here is not a long-term solution, Li Kuan wants to go back soon.
