A civil official said: "Grand Minister, but the Turks are not the opponents of the Tang Dynasty, why are they opposed to fleeing?"

Lu Dongzan said: "It's just because the Turkic people still miss the glory of the past and want to reproduce the glory of the past. Even if this dream is illusory, they still want to try it."

A general said: "But this test, if not done well, the whole army will be wiped out."

Someone said: "A lot of times it's just a gamble."

People are always gamblers, Turkic people are like this!

"He won't run away, the war is about to begin." Lu Dongzan said: "Xue Rengui has been dormant in recent years. Since he became famous with Li Shimin's conquest of Korea, he has been very powerful. But when the new emperor ascended the throne, he regarded him as a watchdog , has been stationed at the Xuanwu Gate for a long time. Now that I have the opportunity, this is the tiger's mouth. Ashina Helu met Xue Rengui like this, this is fate..."

The civil official said in surprise: "The prime minister thinks Ashina Helu will be defeated?"

Lu Dongzan nodded, "Ninety percent of them will be defeated, and the remaining [-]%... depends on God's will."

The crowd was silent.

"Food and grass are ready."

"Yes."

"Soldiers should practice and be more ruthless."

"Yes!"

"Get detailed information about this battle as soon as possible."

Shan Dewu said: "Major Minister, the Tang army covered the battlefield, and even covered the surrounding area, making it impossible to obtain detailed information."

Lu Dongzan said flatly: "At all costs."

"Yes!"

Tactics must serve strategy in many cases.

Everyone heard a hint of murderous intent.

Are you about to start?

Lu Dongzan then went to see Zanpu.

The young Zamp sat indoors, reading a book calmly.

"Zanpu, the prime minister is here."

Zanpu got up and said with a smile, "The prime minister is here."

Lu Dongzan came in and saluted, "I met Zanpu."

"sit down."

Zamp is as friendly as a young man next door.

Someone served tea, Lu Dongzan nodded his head in thanks.

"I'm afraid Turkic won't be able to hold on anymore."

Lu Dongzan said: "Once the Turks can't hold on, the Tang Dynasty will look around and be invincible. Liaodong has recovered, and even Khitan has been wiped out."

"Is Turkic no match for Tang Dynasty?" Zanpu asked curiously.

Lu Dongzan smiled, "Li Zhi sent Xue Rengui who had been suppressed for a long time. Once this person goes out to fight, he will definitely be aggressive. Ashina Helu no longer flees, which hits Li Zhi's intention. A tiger that has been hungry for a long time meets a The wolf must have eaten him."

Zanpu nodded, "In this way, the Turks will decline for a long time after this war."

"Yes." Lu Dongzan said: "The tribes on the grassland will always exist, but they are weak or strong, and cannot be completely wiped out. After this battle, the Turks may not be able to become the opponents of the Tang Dynasty again within ten years... They need to cultivate their health. In order to find a leader, we need to fight internally."

"Datang lost an opponent, and Tubo lost a check."

Zamp said, and immediately clenched his fists.

Lu Dongzan chuckled, "Zanpu is smart, I am very pleased."

Zanpu lowered his eyes, "It's better to be taught by the Prime Minister."

Lu Dongzan laughed and said: "Once the Turks weaken, Datang will look for the next threat. That is Tubo. From then on, it is not Datang who is worried about Tubo's invasion, but Datang is eagerly waiting for Tubo to attack."

Zanpu said: "Tubo is located in a high place, and the Tang Dynasty cannot attack it. Why can't they live in peace?"

Lu Dongzan smiled, "A powerful force cannot be wasted for nothing. If it cannot find a target to vent to the outside world, these powerful forces will become the source of internal fighting, and countless Tibetans will fight each other."

"It's possible to go to Tibet and there is no internal fighting." Zanpu felt that this remark was a bit of a suspicion of fooling himself.

"Yes!" Lu Dongzan nodded, "If Tubo pursued a national policy of friendship with Datang, then we would still be smiling and watching Datang sweep the world. But it was too late. From the first time the army attacked Tuyuhun, Tubo and Tang Datang has already torn his face. Datang will not tolerate a huge force that is hostile to him and always thinking of attacking him. Zanpu, the relationship between us and Datang is already a life-and-death relationship. You must not mistake."

"Is it life or death?" Zanpu said, "But Datang is powerful."

"They are very powerful!" Lu Dongzan said, "They are invincible in all directions. We all underestimated Li Zhi."

Zanpu nodded, "When Li Shimin passed away, my grandfather sent someone to take a letter to Chang'an, and arrogantly warned Changsun Wuji and others not to bully the cowardly Li Zhi, but now it seems that grandfather was wrong, and Changsun Wuji was wrong. We were wrong too."

"Yes." Lu Dongzan said: "This is an emperor with a deep city, he can endure, like a silent rock, silent, but it can never be broken. When the dark clouds over the head dissipate In the end, he was like a sharp horizontal knife, invincible. Look, Goryeo is gone, Baekje and Silla are gone, Wa Kingdom is gone, Khitan is gone, and Xi clan is gone. In the place, the enemies of Datang are gone. Now it's our turn."

Zanpu sighed, "Is it irreparable?"

Lu Dongzan smiled, "Why is Zanpu worried about this? The Tubo army is not bad, and we have more numbers. In addition...even if we are temporarily lost, we can withdraw and defend our homeland. Datang can only look at it and sigh."

The plateau is the best line of defense, which gives the Tibetans a great sense of security.

Zanpu nodded, "How is such a grand minister going to do it?"

Lu Dongzan had a sharp look in his eyes, "If Tubo wants to make a difference, we can't wait. After this battle, the Tang Dynasty will prepare its troops, and Li Zhi will set his sights on some cities. Zanpu, the soldiers are waiting for the battle. Just wait for the news of this battle to come, and I will attack with a large army...to defeat Datang's arrogance!"

He got up to take his leave, and Zamp saw him outside the door.

Seeing Lu Dongzan being surrounded by people and going away, Zanpu said softly: "The fate of Tubo! But I can only sit and watch."

Behind him, a confidant said: "Zanpu, someone outside said that the sons and grandchildren of the prime minister are all staring..."

"What do you mean?" Zapp turned around and asked.

The confidant said: "The prime minister is old, how many years can he last? Five or ten years at most, but what about after that? Is it possible to return the power to Zanpu? Lu Dongzan will not agree, and his children and grandchildren will not agree... Outsiders said , as long as you become a powerful minister, or you will always be a powerful minister, once you retreat, the emperor's revenge will be extremely tragic."

Zamp looked at his confidant calmly.

"and also!"

The confidant cheered up, "It is said that Zanpu has made arrangements for a long time. At that time, one of his sons will become the prime minister and the other will become a general, so that he can continue to control the civil and military power."
