Chapter 275: The Respect Of The Jiannan Commanders
But in any case, due to this unintendedChong's words lightly
"As the progeny of a general, it is a good thing that Wang gongzi thinks deeply into such matters You all need not think toowaved his hands to stop his subordinates before turning to Wang Chong With a faint seneral, he said, "It has been long since Mengshe Zhao and Ü-Tsang surfaced in the world, but the situation that Wang gongzi spoke of has never happened before
"Mengshe Zhao and Ü-Tsang, one is in Erhai while the other is on a plateau These two countries have coes, custo divides the both of them into two like a sharp sword The two nations can't even communicate with one another properly, not to mention, collaborate with one another
"The human heart is always filled with doubts It's already sufficiently difficult for a section to ith one another, and here we are talking about the armies of two empires Who will direct who? Who will take the lead and ill listen? Wang gongzi has never been to the battlefield before, so it's natural you are unaccusto knocked on the table lightly with his forefinger
"If the two countries were to ally with one another to attack Great Tang, they would have to dispatch an army of at least 200,000 men each A combined army of 400,000, ould command them? When will they strike? Hoill they strike, and hoill the two arzi, you are still too young, and it's unavoidable for you to underestimate the intricacy behind such matters That is 400,000 men, not a few hundred or a few thousand How could they be mobilized so easily?
"Besides, even if they were to collaborate with one another, with our hundred thousand elite troops and the strategic advantage of our forts, do you think that on't be able to fend off their offense? As long as we stall theth of time for the main army from the royal court to arrive, ould be able to wipe them out clean noaside, just the arxi That is an arsi! Even though it is currently under Geshu Han, its troops consist reat experience facing the steel cavalry of Ü-Tsang
"Should the situation youDipper ar the borders could also be mobilized for that crisis you speak of The scenario that you mentioned has never happened before in the history of our Great Tang War is not a gah his choices carefully His Erhai Mengshe Zhao 's wrath!"
At the end of his words, Zhangchou Jianqiong harruh his voice Mengshe Zhao was different fro in the sense that it was a vassal state of Great Tang
Vassal states represented nations that the lording eshe Zhao staged an uprising, it would have to consider the consequences
"Lord, I can't say for sure whether Mengshe Zhao can successfully ally with Ü-Tsang, but it is the absolute truth that Mengshe Zhao has intentions of staging a coup d'état, and it has sent an envoy to liaise with the Seventh Tsenpo of Ü-Tsang!"
Wang Chong's words i, Xianyu Zhongtong, and the other Jiannan cozi, what do youthe she Zhao has extended a hand of alliance to Ü-Tsang?" Zhangchou Jianqiong asked with a gri only wanted to trade so the scions of 's words had already exceeded the real that could possibly influence the fate of Great Tang!
It would be a huge proble Allithin his jurisdiction, at least before he entered the Bureau of Military Personnel
If so were to happen there, everyone here would be affected
"Not too long ago, I met a scion froshe Zhao, and under my elco has already dispatched one of his deeply-trusted subordinates as an envoy to propose an alliance to Ü-Tsang That gentle, and he hopes not for a war to happen between our countries I believe that was the reason why he spouted these words unintentionally
"Nevertheless, when he came to the next day, he understood the consequences of his revelation and swiftly returned back to Erhai without even bidding farewell It's only due to this chou I beg your pardon forstated
Those words i over the banquet The colanced at one another gri the severity of this zi, pardonyou so, but what is the surna asked with a deep voice
"His surna that he had captured the attention of all of the co apologized to the matter It concerned 180,000 elites, several cities, and the lives of over a million citizens
In order to warn these Jiannan co threat so that they would make preparations, he could only play so lowered his head as he fell into deep thought He was fa their names, there was indeed an influential official that went by the surna to Great Tang before
Could the words of Duke Jiu's offspring be right? Does Geluo Feng really bear the intention of allying with Ü-Tsang to deal with Great Tang?
"Geluo Feng is ato take any risks and bear any consequences Besides, Lord Zhangchou has also said that Mengshe Zhao won't be aindividually Thus, the only course of action he could take at this she Zhao are far fro But to fulfill his a has to lower his head, he would surely accede to any de has After all, these are justdeain, it would be unable to traverse across Great Tang to force Mengshe Zhao into anything This kind of deal would only benefit Mengshe Zhao At the very least, it would allow Geluo Feng to break free of Great Tang's control"
