After a long period of silence, King Song finally asked, "Just how did you know?"

There were far toohad experienced countless trials and political storaze and feel for politics, King Song still found it at ti before hi shook his head and casually said, "This isn't soh he was a reincarnator and possessed an entire life's worth of ht

Mengshe Zhao, Ü-Tsang, Goguryeo, the Eastern and Western Turkic Khaganates—these eer over the years while the Great Tang had remained in the same place

No, it had not just remained in the sa

The Imperial Court frohty and lazy, and the wealth of the Central Plains was bound to stir the an countries

And a had the fiercest conflicts with the Great Tang and had the greatest capacity to invade

Unlike the Eastern and Western Turkic Khaganates, Ü-Tsang was based on a high plateau The Great Tang wanted to deal with this high-altitude eth

Thus, in every war, the Tibetans only needed to retreat into their interior, a strategic withdrawal saving them from disaster They had always possessed a safe fortress, and they recovered faster than the other foreign kingdo wanted to expand, the Great Tang in the Central Plains was the greatest barrier Everything foreordained Ü-Tsang to always be the first opponent to strike a blow

Geluofeng and his 300,000 Mengshe Zhao soldiers had been their chance

They had already routed Xianyu Zhongtong in the southwest, and if they wanted to amplify their success, they needed to prevent any reinforce Consequently, it was imperative that they send an ar Chong was utterly unsurprised to see such a thing happen

Although Ü-Tsang was a foreign kingdom outside the sphere of Han civilization and was far less prosperous than the Central Plains, there were several extremely powerful existences behind it

Whether it was Dalun Ruozan, Huoshu Huicang, We Tadra Khonglo, or Dusong Mangpoje, they were all the elite of the elite, not one bit inferior to the renowned generals of the Central Plains

When these generals joined their powers, there would be no flaw in their strategies Even though Wang Chong knew far in advance, he still wasn't able to do anything about it

"Since you were able to analyze all this, why didn't you speak up sooner?"

King Song looked at the youth, his heart caught up in a mixture of emotions

In the past, he would definitely have been full of praise for Wang Chong's analysis But now there was defeat in the southwest, danger in Longxi, restlessness on the borders of the northeast, northwest, and Beiting King Song no longer had the mind to think about much else

"If I said it, would anyone have believed n in the southwest had already reached this point After three hundred years, this massive and prosperous e peril

And the perils that folloould only be erous, h this one, the following series of events co down like a line of dominoes would completely knock the empire over

At this

"Aah!"

All that King Song could do upon hearing Wang Chong's question was to raise his head up to the dark clouds and give a long sigh

Wang Chong was correct Military affairs were no triflingpersonally told him ould happen, even with his relationship withClan, he would never have believed Wang Chong's words

It wasn't about whether he trusted Wang Chong This just wasn't how major affairs in the Imperial Court were decided Private affections were not to play any part in the proceedings

Without solid evidence, no one would allow a few lines of analysis to decide matters of state, decide the lives of tens of thousands, perhaps even hundreds of thousands, of soldiers This was not the correct way to run a govern said, no one would believe until it actually happened, not even King Song

It was precisely because he understood this that King Song couldn't help but sigh, a deep helplessness welling up in his heart

With Li Zhengyi's defeat, the Great Tang had no more extra soldiers to offer
