Siam!

Lu Dongzan’s Mansion!

The leaders of Wuru of Tubo gathered at the royal palace and greeted the regent Lu Dongzan respectfully.

This is the most important Wuru Alliance in Tubo.

Tubo Zamp Songtsen Gampo was known as the actual founding of the Tubo Kingdom, but according to the classical records of Tubo, this is not the case.

There have always been many tribes scattered on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Following the general trend of being unrefused, many larger tribes have gradually formed.

The tribe where Songtsen Gampo has been circulated for thirty-two generations, as the thirty-three generations Zampo.

This natural plateau eagle has a rare leadership talent. When he was twelve, his father poisoned the leaders of the old tribe and forced himself to ascend to the position of Zamp.

The various tribes of Tubo bullied Songtsen Gampo and raised troops to rebel together. The enemy country Yangtong and Su Bi also began to take advantage of the situation to rob.

In this situation of being surrounded by enemies, Songtsen Gampurren resisted foreign enemies and quelled civil strife with his own Ganrui and his uncle Lunkoer and Prime Minister Shangnang.

At the same time, he also discovered a great sage like Lu Dongzan with great talent for his kingly sects with great responsibilities, and at the other party's suggestion, he constantly absorbed the advanced culture of the Tang Dynasty to enrich the foundation of his country.

The wise rulers and virtuous ministers rely on each other, and Tubo made great strides at an incredible speed.

However, Songtsen Gampo died young and died of illness at the age of 34. His only son, GongJian and Tongzan, died early, and Tubo Zampo was then succeeded to the throne by Songtsen Gampo's grandson, Mang Songmangzan.

Songtsen Gampo passed away so young, and his grandson can be imagined.

The secrets of the Tubo military and national affairs are in the hands of the Da Lu Dongzan.

When Songtsen Gampo reincarnated, in order to strengthen control, Tubo territory was divided into five Ru and sixty-one Dongdai. It was an administrative position and also had military power, which was equivalent to a vassal of the border.

Wuru, 61 Dongdai was directly dispatched by Zanpu, and he must have one alliance a year or even several alliances a year. Tubo controlled these officials through alliances.

The person who presided over the alliance was naturally Tubo Zanpu, but because Tubo Zanpu is young now, the regent Lu Dongzan is responsible for this important task.

Lu Dongzan waved his hand to signal the leader Wuru to sit left and right, and said, "Today's alliance is different from the past. Today I have important things to discuss with you."

Leader Wuru listened respectfully in the lower head, without any other thoughts.

Lu Dongzan was indeed an extremely powerful figure. He was like Zhuge Liang in the Shu Han Dynasty. He had all the military and political power in his hands. His ministers were strong and weak. However, Tubo’s civil and military ministers believed in his loyalty to the country and were willing to obey his orders.

"I was valued by the great Songtsen Gampo, and I made it my lifelong wish to strengthen Tubo. Many years ago, I had a discussion with Songtsen Gampo. My success and failure were the sacred mountain. The sacred mountain allows us to resist the invasion of powerful enemies and grow safely and steadily. However, this sacred mountain and steep plateau also make us trapped in it and difficult to get out. Songtsen Gampo wanted Tubo to be respected and worshipped by all countries like the great Tang Dynasty. Getting out of the sacred mountain is the first step toward glory."

In Tibetan, "Songzan" means dignity, and "Ganbu" means profound and grand.

Tubo did not say that he was taboo, so Lu Dongzan called Songzan Ganbu's name directly not to be disrespectful to him, but to be a kind of respectful call.

The leader Wuru heard a hint of fanaticism flashing in Songtsen Gampo's eyes.

As the greatest monarchs of Tubo, they were all willing to die for him, even if Songtsen Gampo was dead.

"Songzan Gampo asked me, how to go this first step? Should I go south to issue the imperial edicts? Or do I go south to Bashu? Should I go west to the Western Regions? Or do I go south to Nibura?"

"I told him that the wild lands of the imperial edicts were useless. Bashu was rich, but the Tang court was too strong, and he broke into Bashu and destroyed himself. The Western Regions were full of gold, and I, Tubo, would definitely take it. However, our strength was not strong and could not subdue the countries in the Western Regions. If we enter rashly, we would fall into the quagmire and unable to extricate ourselves. The southwest Nibora? The small country, the people are few and the country is poor, and we value the exclusion of faith. It is better to use it than to take it. The only way out is to go north to Qinghai Lake and control Qinghai Lake."

"Qinghai Lake has infinite wealth, including salt, fish and birds, fertile soil and grassland. It can be cultivated, domesticated horses, and raised cattle and sheep... The Tang people didn't know the goods. They didn't like the climate wherever they didn't like, and they would feel tight and dizzy. Giving such a treasure to the remaining soldiers in Tuyuhun was a waste of resources."

Lu Dongzan knew the culture of the Central Plains well and knew all kinds of idioms and allusions. He just talked to the leader Wuru, and he chose the most straightforward way, but from time to time he would still spit out a few incisive idioms.

"If we want to truly develop and grow, Qinghai Lake is our must-get place. With Qinghai Lake, we have a continuous supply of resources to provide us with battles and battles. And the people of Tuyuhun, they are all natural riders. If we defeat them, we can immediately have a cavalry that has been through many battles."

"A big talk! My territory is close to Qinghai Lake, and I dream of robbing the resources of Qinghai Lake. But as long as we send troops, Tang Ting's army will also come. They do not allow anyone to use troops within their control. We fought with them back then. It was not that I, Xinzhuoba, they were indeed very terrible opponents."

Xinzhuoba was one of the leaders of Wuru and a veteran Tubo. He had fought with the Tang army in Songzan Gampo in Songzhou.

They had not yet met the main force of the Tang Dynasty, but Niu Jinda's vanguard troops caused them to suffer a great loss, and they retreated to seek peace.

"good!"

Lu Dongzan looked at Xin Zhuoba with praise and said, "If it were normal, I would never dare to have this idea rashly. Now is the best time. I have obtained accurate information. Tang Ting used veteran Li Ji as the chief general of Yilidao marching and led a large army to fight westward. After years of my research on Tang Ting's policies, they focused their main attention on the Western Regions, Haidong and the east, and had never paid attention to the movements of us and Qinghai Lake. This is our only opportunity to take down Qinghai Lake while the tiger is sleepy. I have prepared a letter of apology. As long as I take down Qinghai Lake, I will immediately submit a letter of guilt."

"They are outside, and Baekje, the Japanese are not at peace. No matter how unhappy they are, they will endure for a while. We will have plenty of time to take down Qinghai Lake for repair..."

"Today's alliance is to tell you all. We have endured for twenty years and seek this opportunity. This time, we sent troops to Qinghai Lake, and I, Tubo, will be the strongest troops in the whole country to conquer. In this battle, the commander of the Tubo, will be the head coach of the Tubo, Qinling, do you have any objections? I know that the Tubo's qualifications are not as experienced as you, and such arrangements are inappropriate. But this battle is related to my Tubo's plan for the next hundred years, and the Tubo is the best choice!"

He said as he bowed deeply to Chief Wuru.

Lu Dongzan's move gave them enough face.

At the same time, Qinling's military talent is too dazzling, and so far, he has not suffered a defeat.
