Not long after, Li Jing found time to write a secret letter and sent someone to send it to Chang 'an overnight.
In the letter, apart from the news of Li Daozong's return, there was also news about the Western Liang Kingdom that Li Daozong had brought.
The country was rich and strong!
He could not be underestimated!
If they wanted to conquer Western Liang, they would need at least 50,000 troops or more to have a chance of winning!
However, when this news reached Li Jing, he added words of deliberation at the end.
Or perhaps he might as well write down Li Daozong's description.
Of course, the main point of the secret letter was that Li Jing strongly suggested that Li Daozong was the most suitable candidate for the Western Expedition Grand Marshal!
Whether or not they would rebel, they would know after one battle!
……
In the hall, a messenger came to report.
"Your Majesty, Tubo Zanpu already knows the movements of the Tang army. This time, he will pretend to ally with the Tang army.”
The messenger presented a letter.
Li Ye took it over and glanced at it. He smiled and threw it aside.
Seeing this, Xiangyu said excitedly,"" Great, Your Majesty. We can concentrate our forces and swallow the Tang army. When the time comes..."
"You idiot…"
Before Xiangyu could finish his sentence, Li Ye glared at him and he was stunned.
"This…Your Majesty, is what I said wrong?”
This was clearly a great opportunity!
The Tibetans and the Tang Empire had a grudge against each other. Wasn't this a good opportunity to swallow the Tang army?
Just the way Li Daozong had treated him in the beginning made Xiangyu gnash his teeth in hatred. He had long wanted to take revenge.
Li Ye could naturally tell what Xiangyu was thinking.
"Your brain really needs some nourishment. Let me ask you, how does the Western Liang Country look in the eyes of the various factions?”Li Ye asked.
Err…
Xiangyu scratched his head and said honestly," Although we feel that we are not weak, our territory is still too small. In the eyes of others, we are still the weakest.”
Indeed.
"Then let me ask you again. The secret letter I sent to the Tubo stated that this king would use all his strength to deal with the Great Tang.”
Li Ye asked again.
" What about us?" Xiangyu scratched his head and said cautiously," Then…we'll attack the Great Tang with all our might?"”
"Foolish!"
Li Ye rolled his eyes.
Heavens, please give me a strategist!
I've had enough of this boorish man!
"The current territory of Tubo is five or six times larger than Western Liang. According to the intentions of Tubo, why did they agree to Western Liang and not send troops?”
Li Ye asked another question.
Xiangyu was at a loss for words. After thinking for a long time, he stuttered,""The king is invincible. I guess the Tibetan Zanpu won't dare to be enemies with the king…"
Hearing this, Li Ye raised his eyebrows.
Good heavens, this guy didn't learn anything else, but his bootlicking skills were first-class?
"I'll tell you what's going to happen next!”
"This is just a Tibetan plan to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. The principle is the same as the Tang army!”
"This time, we will fight against the Tang army first. The Tubo army has stated that they will send troops to fight against Western Liang together with the Tang army. In fact, when we start the war with the Tang army and the battle is at a stalemate, the Tubo army will definitely send troops to fight!”
"At that time, if we don't have backup forces, we can only be fish on the chopping board. Do you understand?”
Li Ye was a little angry.
"How dare they, Your Majesty?" Xiangyu was shocked.”
Although Tubo had a vast territory, it was still a tribe that had just been unified. Why would it suddenly use troops?
In the past, His Majesty had said that as long as he did not invade, Western Liang was definitely the most dangerous and safest place!
"Then why wouldn't I dare?"
"Everything is about having a good reason. Do you think you can develop just by taking down a territory?”
"Wrong! He was gravely mistaken! To be able to take down a territory is indeed a skill, but it has to be a well-founded cause. Only a land that the people support can be considered our territory, understand?”
Li Ye patiently explained.
This was indeed the case.
With Western Liang's current strength, it would not be a problem for them to expand their territory by two or three times.
But why didn't Li Ye start his conquest?
Firstly, the system did not issue any missions. This was the first reason.
Secondly, there was no reason to do so. The population of Xi Liang Country was not many to begin with. If they really wanted to take over the territory again, wouldn't it be useless after the matter was done?
"Your Majesty, this is difficult for me. What should we do next?”
Xiangyu scratched his head. He didn't understand Li Ye's words, so he asked directly.
"In this battle, I will be the vanguard! Leave it to me!"
"Lead ten thousand infantry and hide behind. When the Tibetan army arrives, we will give them a head-on attack!”
"In this battle, our goal is to swallow at least half of the Tibetan territory!”
Li Ye stood up and said confidently.
It was just a Tibetan, so Li Ye really didn't care.
Moreover, the system upgrade would be completed tonight.
At that time, according to the mission issued by the system, Li Ye would once again expand the scope of his domain!
"Understood!"
Xiangyu quickly said. After thinking for a while, he added,""Your Majesty, when do you plan to send troops against the Tang army? It seems that they haven't confirmed who the general is…"
General?
Someone had long chosen him!
"Do you think that I'll go back to eat for nothing after letting Li Daozong go?" Li Ye chuckled.”
