The Tang Dynasty sent troops to Tibet, but they retreated after a series of attacks.
Only our men and horses were killed, and Songtsen Gampo's people had nothing to do. Rumor has it that the other party also met with the armies of Zhi Saidang Rugongdun and Niang Trisang Yangdun, and the generals of both sides had a duel.
The general named Zhao Yun from the Tang Dynasty defeated Zhi Saidang Ru Gongdun and Niang Chisang Yangdun in three or five rounds. He did not take their lives and even let them go.
What's even more annoying is that when we arrived, we even left two days of food rations for them.
The Dalai Lama's face became distorted after hearing the news.
what does it mean!
If you don’t treat me as a human being, you still have secretly joined forces with Songtsen Gampo. The so-called peace talks and the so-called joining hands to create a beautiful Tibet are all making fun of me.
What a bastard~!
The Dalai Lama jumped to his feet in anger
The guards looked at the movement in the room and did not dare to ask or look at it. Anyway, they just had to do their job of guarding.
Ludongzan and Songtsen Gampo were frightened for a while when they heard that the Tang Dynasty was sending troops. They were happy when they heard that the Tang Dynasty was attacking the Dalai Lama.
In the end, Datang had no idea of attacking their camp. When they met Zhi Saidang Rugongdun and Niang Chisang Yangdun, they not only spared their lives but also gave them food.
The joy in the hearts of Songtsen Gampo and Ludongtsen disappeared.
There's something wrong!
"What do you think, Dongzan?"
"Sir, there must be something fishy about this matter. According to various intelligence reports, except for killing a few of our sentries, Datang's troops did not attack our border camps. All the people they attacked along the way were Dalai Lamas. The camp "
"Only the resisters will be killed. The old and weak will be released as long as they don't die on the spot."
"So I think this is a conspiracy by the Tang Dynasty to sow discord between us and the Dalai Lama."
well
A sigh
Songtsen Gampo took out a small wooden stick and picked out the oil lamp beside him: "I know the character of the Dalai Lama. He is narrow-minded, petty and suspicious. This time the Tang Dynasty has really caught our weakness."
Ludongzan knew that Songtsen Gampo was telling the truth. The Dalai Lama seemed to be broad-minded and wise, but in fact he was narrow-minded, petty-minded, and suspicious in his heart. None of the people who offended him at the time were alive now.
Now the Tang Dynasty only sent troops to defeat the Dalai Lama's people, but did not attack them. Coupled with the hypocritical letters written some time ago, Ludong praised Gan Guang for sure. At this time, the Dalai Lama has no trust in them at all.
"Your Excellency is right. The Tang Dynasty is indeed terrifying and can directly attack our weak points. The Dalai Lama will never trust us again in the future. I highly doubt that Murong Yanyi is passing on the news behind our back."
Songtsen Gampo: "Yes, I also think it's him, but what can we do to him? We wanted to trick him into entering our hinterland, but he was smart enough to see through our strategy and refused to come. Now we need Murong Yanyi’s link to Datang’s intelligence is inseparable~!”
"Then we can't just let him live comfortably like this. How about we find an excuse this time to deceive him of some war horses or food?"
Songtsen Gampo thought about the pros and cons and dismissed Lu Dongtsen's attention: "No, what if Murong Yanyi provides us with false information? The loss will be even greater. This time the Dalai Lama's power has been damaged a lot. We The people also suffered a lot from the fight. The heavy snow is coming, and we won’t have to take action until next year.”
"Since you don't want to kill him, why don't we try another method and continue to make good friends with Murong Yanyi. The Dalai Lama may take revenge on us in the spring of next year, and he may be needed by then. At the same time, we suggest that we continue to communicate with Datang. Let's see Let’s see if we can purchase a batch of Tang Dynasty weapons.”
"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you. Remember to bring a gift. I hope the guard general of Tuyuhun can help us say a few kind words to the Holy Emperor Mingzun of the Tang Dynasty."
"Yes, my subordinate will do it now."
Ludongzan and Songtsan Gampo formulated a new strategy. Ludongzan went to prepare men and gifts to enter the Tang Dynasty from the Tuyuhun area again.
The Dalai Lama's spies heard about Songtsan Gampo and Ludongtsan's actions, which made him even more convinced that Songtsan Gampo's peace talks were fake and a conspiracy to deceive him and tease him.
The Dalai Lama was smart all his life, but ended up being played like a monkey for more than half a year.
Too abominable
Songtsen Gampo I want you to die
The Dalai Lama sullenly called his confidant and spy chief Sanchi.
Sanji is a standard Tibetan man, with messy hair, unkempt beard, dark fingers and face, and a cunning and fierce look in his eyes.
Sanchi was originally a serf of the Dalai Lama, but later relied on his own ability and the Dalai Lama's trust to reach where he is now. The loyal minister naturally had nothing to say.
"Sanchi"
"Owner"
"Give you a task"
"Please give me your orders"
"I want these two bastards Songtsen Gampo and Ludongtsen to go to hell."
"I understand, it will take some time for perfect operation."
The anger was genuine, and the Dalai Lama still had his sense. He did not say such stupid words that he had to finish immediately. He nodded and agreed: "I can rest assured that you will do the work. Time is not a problem. I can wait."
"Thank you for your trust, sir. The two of them will die before the spring of next year."
"Go ahead"
"yes"
Sanchi left the Dalai Lama's room, returned to his hut, and began to plan how to send Ludongtsen and Songtsen Gampo to hell.
assassination
Poisoning is the easiest way
The requirements are also high. You need to be able to get close to the two of them, and there is a chance of poisoning. It is difficult to install such a spy. The more efficient method is naturally to bribe and coerce.
Songtsen Gampo and Ludongtsen were very well protected, and the people around them were all people who had passed many tests. If they acted rashly, they would only expose themselves, so Sangji said it would take some time to operate.
The second option is long-distance assassination. You need to find a few crossbowmen who are good at archery. They can apply the coating on the arrows. As long as they scratch the opponent's skin, they can poison the opponent to death.
This is slightly less difficult and does not require many manpower. It can be done by bribery of a few soldiers. The people placed next to Songtsen Gampo will not be exposed so quickly. The only disadvantage is that the other party has to be determined to die. Get this done.
After much thought, Sanji decided to take a two-pronged approach, poisoning and killing with poison arrows.
After making up his mind, Sanchi started to work.
after a few days
Before the heavy snow comes
The turmoil in Tubo is finally over
More than 30,000 people died on Songtsen Gampo's side, and much less food was lost.
The Dalai Lama did not suffer losses in the early stage. Later, the number of people killed by Zhao Yun's attack directly exceeded Songtsan Gampo and reached about 70,000. More than ten camps, large and small, were lost, and the food supply was even more difficult to estimate.
When the battle damage statistics were finished, not only the Dalai Lama, but also other people in their camp had distorted faces.
What a loss
Big loss
A group of people's hearts are bleeding
When the Dalai Lama was worried, the guard announced: "Sir, Murong Yanyi has sent someone."
