Songtsen Gampo opened his mouth and wanted to persuade Zhi Saidanru Gongdun and Niang Chisang Yangdun, but Lu Dongzan gave them a look and turned them back.
Are you kidding?
The brothers of Zhi Saidang Ru Gongdun and Niang Chisang Yangdun were killed by the Dalai Lama. Not only did the bodies receive humiliation, but they were asked to follow the Dalai Lama and make peace. They don't send troops to attack the Dalai Lama now. It gives them a lot of face.
"You two are right. I also believe that the Dalai Lama must die. We are working together on how to do it specifically."
Zhi Saidang Ru Gongdun winked at his mother, Chisang Yang, and said, "It's getting late, why don't we talk about it some time tomorrow?"
Niang Chisangyangdun and Zhi Saidang Rugongdun had been friends for many years with just one glance. He knew what his good friend meant and immediately said: "It's really getting late, it's dark and snowy, so why not find someone tomorrow?" Time will tell”
Songtsen Gampo nodded: "Then let's discuss it tomorrow."
Lu Dongzan stood up and sent Zhi Saidang Rugongdun and his mother Chisang Yangdun away. Along the way, he wanted to persuade them. Regarding the Dalai Lama, he thought about it and let it go. The two had a lot of grievances. The same is true within their tribe. If they are forced to cooperate with the Dalai Lama, there will be even greater chaos if the situation is not guaranteed. It is better to let them do whatever they want. The Dalai Lama and others should also pay some price for their actions.
The Tang Dynasty seemed to have blocked their way out, but in fact Lu Dongzan felt that was not the case. They still had a glimmer of hope, but it was not in Tubo, but within the Tang Dynasty. Lu Dongzan hoped to connect with the aristocratic families of the Tang Dynasty. Now, let them make some efforts at a cost. In Lu Dongzan's eyes, the family that had been suppressed and cleaned up by Li Mingda for so long would definitely be happy to do this.
After seeing off Zhi Saidang Ru Gongdun and Niang Chisang Yangdun, Ludongzan told Songtsen Gampo his thoughts.
Songtsen Gampo pondered for a long time: "Is it really possible? How come I heard that the aristocratic families of the Tang Dynasty have lost their former glory?"
"I have also heard about it. You might as well give it a try. I think they are submissive on the surface but secretly want to regain their previous status and rights."
"Okay, you might as well give it a try, but where should we get the manpower? We don't have much internal contact with the Tang Dynasty. The previous roads have been cut off. Should we still get the manpower from Murong Yanyi?"
Lu Dongzan gritted his teeth: "Let's go from Murong Yanyi's place. When I was in his tribe waiting for the official consent of the Tang Dynasty to enter Chang'an, Murong Yanyi had many items cherished by the Tang Dynasty. He should have some connection with those times. "
Songtsan Gampo felt that this matter was still unreliable, and reminded Lu Dongzan: "I think this matter is still very difficult, so prepare with both hands. We cannot place our hopes on Murong Yanyi and the aristocratic families of the Tang Dynasty. We must do a good job with the Tang Dynasty." Tang is preparing for a fight to the death."
Seeing that Songtsen Gampo was determined, Ludongzan couldn't bear to reach out and shatter his dream. The prosperity and wealth of Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty and the sturdy armor of the imperial guards were more gorgeous than these leaders, which fully demonstrated that a Things, Tubo is really not as good as the Tang Dynasty. Neither of them is a match, not to mention that there is still civil strife.
Zhi Saidang Rugongdun and Niang Chisangyangdun currently control more than half of the troops in their camp. They hate the Dalai Lama to the core. Cooperation is obviously impossible to achieve. If they really want to suppress The two cooperated with them, and Tubo split into three families if they could not keep it together.
Saying goodbye to Songtsen Gambo, Ludongtsen came out from Songtsen Gambo's palace and took people back to his mansion. After returning home, Ludongtsen did not rest immediately, but sat in his study and thought about the future. Which way to go.
This was a question he had been thinking about since the first day he was sent out of the country as a gift, but he never came up with it. In any case, he could not reach the most satisfactory idea in his heart.
Tubo must make preparations for the future even if it cannot do so now.
The first priority is to clear out the Dalai Lama’s forces
We also need to obtain armor weapons like the Imperial Guards of the Tang Dynasty.
Marry a princess from the Tang Dynasty
This road seems to have been blocked a long time ago, so can we find a big Tang family as an alliance?
It seems that the Murong family is not included in this list. Murong Xue's status is aloof. Emperor Mingzun of the Tang Dynasty would not allow the Murong family to do such a thing. So what about the Turks?
Looks like you can try it
Then there are some families in the Tang Dynasty. If possible, some tribes in Tuyuhun can also try to attack.
Find some marriage families for Lord Songtsen Gampo or his son, hahaha, he will thank me.
After thinking of a way, Ludong fell asleep with praise.
Zhi Saidangru Gongdun and mother Chisangyangdun left Songtsen Gampo's palace, and under the protection of their attendants, they walked forward in the wind and snow. Mother Trisangyangdun asked Zhi Saidangru Gong Dun: "Brother, what do you want to do?"
"My brother, have you seen it? Lord Songtsen Gampo intends the Dalai Lama to seek peace. If so, how will our brothers' blood feud be avenged?"
"I understand, brother, as long as you say a word, we will take the tribe with you. We have soldiers and we are not afraid of anyone, but where are we going?"
Zhi Saidang Ru Gongdun reminded mother Chisang Yangdun: "Do you still remember the commander-in-chief of the Tang Dynasty who defeated the two of us in three consecutive moves some time ago?"
The majestic Zhao Yun, with his white horse, silver helmet, shining silver spear, appeared in the mind of his mother Chisang Yangdun, with his dashing and heroic posture, his gorgeous marksmanship, and the force value that they could win in just a few or two strokes.
With a voice of admiration, Niang Chisang Yangdun replied to Zhi Saidangru Gongdun: "I remember that Zhao Zilong is very strong. We are not opponents. I admire him very much. What do you mean, brother?"
"Zhao Zilong must have had some plans for the two of us when he let us go last time. Now that Lu Dongzan has returned from the Tang Dynasty and brought the so-called unconditional surrender letter, I feel that he let us go in the first place just to win over you and me."
Seeing his mother Chisang Yangdun pricking up his ears to listen, Zhi Saidang Ru Gongdun continued: "The Tang Dynasty only allowed us the title of a vassal king to the winning side this time, and the rest will be gone. When the time comes, you and I will What can we achieve after these two help Songtsen Gampo win this war? "
"Maybe it's just some money to live on. What should we do if those who committed our crimes want revenge in the future? Or what if the Tang Dynasty wipes out us so that Tibet can be under their control?"
"besides...."
Mother Chisang Yangton saw Zhi and Saidang Rugongdun hesitated to say anything. She was extremely anxious and asked Zhi. Saidang Rugongdun said, "If there is anything else, brother, you can tell me when the time comes~!"
well
Zhi Saidang Ru Gongdun sighed and stared at his mother Chisang Yangdun and said in a sullen voice: "I'm just guessing what you say below. Don't talk nonsense."
"Brother, please tell me. I promise not to talk nonsense."
"What if I mean what if, for the sake of future status, Lu Dongtsen and Songtsen Gampo secretly killed you and me and framed the blame on the Tang Dynasty or the Dalai Lama to gain the support and allegiance of our people."
