    The three of them settled the matter.  Wu Lushi waved his hand and asked the guards he had brought to go down.

    Hei Te Changzhi was very conscious and let the soldiers go down.

    "Mei Lu sat in the middle with a carefree attitude, and asked: "General Black Teeth, General Qixin, after Your Majesty asked you to capture Zishan Pass with Dagang, will you continue to capture those who went south?" []

    Hei Te Changzhi said with a smile: "Queen Mother, don't you think we are doing this just for your sake? Is it easy for the army to go south? In this place, the food and baggage are heavy, and the movement of the troops is very difficult. But not like this, Tubo  Some nobles also believe that the plateau is in danger and will continue to support the Gar family."

    "Well then, you can withdraw your troops now."

    "yes."

    Wang Fangyi couldn't help it anymore and said: "Queen Dowager Wulu, although you have a noble status, why do you want us to withdraw?"

    There is a saying among the people that it is easier to invite gods than to send them away. In this battle, many sacrifices were made for victory, money was spent, and hundreds of thousands of people were killed.  At least you Tubo must agree to some conditions, and what about the large number of livestock you captured from Qinghai?

    Why is Heijia Changzhi so virtuous?  Who is the commander-in-chief of the three armies? Could it be the Queen Mother of Tubo?

    Hei Te Changzhi pulled him out and whispered: "Manager Wang, you don't need to interfere in this matter."

    "General Black Teeth, I don't understand. You didn't explain this matter clearly today, so I insisted on interfering. "You have fought a lot of hard work for this battle. Although you became famous earlier than me, I can't just sit back and watch you do whatever you want.

    "Mr. Wang, do you know how you escaped back then?"

    "I know, what's wrong with that?"

    "That time His Majesty was in danger. Although he suffered a lot and his soldiers were also very brave, there was one person who helped him, and that was the one who made the greatest contribution."

    "who?"

    "It is this Queen Mother."

    "This" Wang Fangyi almost fell to the ground in shock. He was also in the northwest back then, and finally sent troops to greet her. "Knowing some special circumstances" thought about it, and immediately understood the intention of the Tubo Queen Mother.  If Lun Qinling had succeeded back then, Tubo would have been completely reduced to the rule of the Gar family, and the sky would have been dark.

    "Not only that, do you know whose son Tubo Zanpu is?"

    "Whose son?"

    "He is your Majesty's son."

    After Hei Te Changzhi finished speaking, he reached out to help Wang Fangyi's body fall down. He couldn't help it.

    "This, this"

    "Back then, Tubo Lao Zanpu had no children, and the Lu family came to rescue His Majesty. The two stayed together for half a year, that"

    ?????????????????????????????

    It took Wang Fangyi a while before he calmed down his confused mind. After thinking about it again, many things became clear to him.  Why did the Queen Mother dare to go to Chang'an alone to negotiate peace? The result seemed to be biased towards the Tubo people.  He even did not hesitate to marry off the daughter of the Wang family in Taiyuan.  Daqing is my son.

    "It will be difficult for Your Majesty."

    "Something is not easy to do. If you don't recognize your ancestors and return to the clan, it doesn't matter whether you are your majesty's son or not. You may still be an enemy in the future. If you recognize your ancestors and return to the clan, Tubo will do very drastic things after learning the truth. Is this outcome possible?  It's easy to explain, but Mr. Wang is not what you and I care about."

    "yes."

    The two of them entered the tent again. Madam Wu Lu looked at him with a smile and asked, "General Wang, do you still object?"

    "Let's do it like this," Wang Fangyi said with his head hanging down.

    "But you have to wait a moment. In a few days, I will go to Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty again."

    "Yeah." What else can I say?  The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl in the sky only meet once a year, but others haven't done so in almost ten years.

    "Also, 'Your Majesty said that the head of the Garqin Tomb should be buried in Biantou Ridge.' I brought it to you. He was also a British and Filipino hero. 'Zhen Ran is dead.' Let's bury him properly."

    "Yes." All three of them nodded solemnly.

    As an enemy, this is the biggest enemy in the world. It is a pity that he was born in Tubo and the country's power is small. It happened to coincide with the appearance of His Majesty. If it had been in the Tang Dynasty and it happened to be the time when the British Lord was still alive, this person's achievements would not be inferior to Li's.  How many achievements.

    The army retreated one by one, and when they arrived at Zishan City, Murong Zhong said, "I'm going back too."

    "So fast?"

    "I still want to inform the people."

    Rather than informing the people, a large number of people were relocated due to several wars. As a result, the imperial court had to relocate everywhere, from the original Lianggan to Lingxia, and even finally expanded to Liuhu Prefecture.  Some people have stayed in Lingxia for a long time and live and work in peace and contentment, but they may not move to Qinghai again.  Murong Zhong went back to persuade various ministries.

    ?The three of them did not object. This was an agreement in advance. Some places would be set aside for the immigrants from the Tang Dynasty to farm and herd in their free time. If necessary, the soldiers would be on duty.  In fact, immigration does not require much work. For more than ten years, the people of Qinghai have lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the population has multiplied rapidly. Just moving the shackle to the west has solved the living space.

    ??And the people in Tuyuhun who admired Rong Zhong were also people loyal to the Tang Dynasty and had a high degree of Chineseization.  After being scattered like this, the imperial court will send a capable official to govern for four or five years, and Qinghai will settle down.

    On the other side, many Tubo soldiers were trying to persuade Meulu.  Seeing that the Tang Dynasty pole troops retreated and the Lu family returned, Wan Junshan hummed.  It¡¯s better for us Queen Mother.  He went into danger several times alone for Tubo.

    But when they heard that the Bu Lu clan was going to the Tang Dynasty, everyone disagreed.

    ??Merlu called them together and said: "Zishan Pass fell into the hands of the Tang Dynasty people, can it be taken back?"

    No one can make a sound.  The weapons used by the Tang Dynasty to defend the city were too sharp, and with the invasion of Qinling this time, the vitality that Tubo had finally recovered from was severely damaged again.  It will be impossible to capture Zishan Pass within the next ten years at least.

    "The Gar brothers said that the Tang Dynasty's pole troops were unable to reach Wuhai. Let's take a look again. The Tang Dynasty emperor could come and go freely on the plateau, and now hundreds of thousands of troops are stationed at Xianniu River.

    "Not only am I going to talk to the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, but everyone, we are seriously injured in Tubo this time. The Gar family and many trusted ministers, nobles and lords will definitely be ready to make a move.  I will not exchange for a peaceful environment. If there is external pressure and internal rebellion, Tubo may collapse.  "

    "Queen Mother, it's impossible to get lucky twice."

    "Kilixu, don't worry. What the Tang Dynasty people are coveting is that Qinghai still has a false reputation. Ke Gaoyuan may not be that interested. They are so rich, what do they want from Gaoyuan? Do they allocate money from the treasury every year to repay it?"

    ??The copies are speechless.

    What the Queen Mother said makes sense.  The policies of the Tang Dynasty have always been to comfort Tubo, but Tubo wanted to grow stronger, and the weather in the south was not suitable for it, so it had to constantly confront the Tang Dynasty.  In fact, some people began to reflect on why they had to confront the Tang Dynasty head-on?

    "Kilixu, when I leave, Guan Pu has not really grown up yet. You have to take good care of him. If there is any rebellion in the other ministries, I authorize you to kill them without mercy. At this time, we must have a peaceful environment."  At this point, a trace of worry flashed in her eyes.

    She has never thought about the worries of Hei Te Changzhi and Wang Fangyi.  All these years I have only wanted to take revenge, and I have been deliberately avoiding this matter.  Now that the great revenge has been avenged, this matter has to be put on the agenda.  However, I haven¡¯t thought about it yet, how will we talk about it then?

    In fact, I also want to stay in Changwen, and even want to take my son to see the prosperity of Chang'an, but the consequences of the truth being revealed are irresistible.

    In Chang'an City, Li Wei was anxious at this time.

    A column of envelopes was sent from the residence, and many soldiers were sacrificed, as expected.  It is not that easy to defeat Lun Qinling.

    But the financial pressure gave him a headache.

    For this battle, the Philippines has been quietly preparing for this battle in the past few years, and has accumulated some money and silk in the national treasury.  However, unlike the last time the 40,000 to 50,000-ton troops were dispatched, that time there was foreign investment in the Sindh area and the Turks implemented the policy of supporting war with war, so the consumption could not be seen.

    This time, in order to gain a decisive advantage, more than 400,000 troops were gathered again.  It was very similar to the battle between Qin Ling and Xue Rengui, but the strength of the troops on both sides was reversed.  However, the more troops are mobilized, the more serious the consumption becomes.  Even before the war started, the treasury was squandered.

    The problem has not been solved, so many soldiers have died and a large amount of compensation is needed.

    Not only the Central Plains people, but also the Hu people accounted for more than half of the dead.  In the long run, these consumptions have positive significance.  But it's just superficial work.  Besides, if we are promoting Chineseization across the board, we cannot treat them as true outsiders.  The dead soldiers should be compensated.

    The tribes that were damaged in Lingxi will have to relocate immediately. Hundreds of thousands of Tuyuhun tribesmen will be relocated. Even if they pay for themselves, the relocated areas will have to be resettled.  Fortunately, under his own coercive policies, many Tuyuhun people switched from pastoralism to farming and cultivated a large number of fields.  But there are fees.

    No money.

    We had no choice but to call the prime ministers and explain the situation roughly.

    All the figures looked at each other.

    Now it dawns on everyone that everything they did before was just a smoke screen to attack Qinghai completely.

    This is not counter-intuitive. Qinghai was originally on the Southern Silk Road, which was very important, and it was close to Chang'an. Not taking advantage of it was always a concern of the Tang Dynasty.  But this money Li Yuanyou, the minister of the Ministry of Rites and a third-rank disciple of Zhongshu, said: "Your Majesty, there is only one strategy. The autumn taxes will come up one after another. Draw money from the autumn taxes."?.  Water conservancy projects across the country will be put down as much as they can and will be completed next year, so that part of the pressure on the national treasury can be alleviated.  "

    Another prime minister, Feng Yuanchang, stood up with his teeth in hand and said: "Your Majesty, military warfare is dangerous. Qinghai is the gateway to the country, and I have no objection. However, I do not agree with blindly expanding the territory. This battle in Qinghai is a lesson from the past. In the past,  Taizong also regretted his two expeditions to Goryeo. He was lucky to win, and fortunately there was civil strife in Tubo, and the brothers were at war with each other. Otherwise, the Gar brothers would not have died, and the battle would not be worth the gain."

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUTOUT QINGHAI

    Li Wei said happily: "Feng Qing, I know what you want to say. Japan and Silla are not Tubo, let alone heroes like Qinling. If Japan had existed, Silla would not have survived until now. If Silla had  , the Japanese country will not even have a chance to attack the upper peninsula. However, the Lianhe knows that, and the matter should not be discussed again. Tubo is a special case, and the Qinghai Lianmen do not want to delay it any longer. For other arrangements, the Lianhe will make according to its ability. People-oriented  , put the country first and will not blindly expand territory."

    Feng Yuanchang didn¡¯t know the reason.  If we don't take action, Lu's mother and son will not be safe.

    The forces of both sides reached a critical point. Just like myself and my father back then, we had no choice but to choose one side to withdraw.  But where would mother and son evacuate without the Lu family?

    While we were talking, someone reported outside that the Queen Mother had arrived.

    Let¡¯s stand together to welcome him.

    Wu Zetian was also getting old, so she didn¡¯t avoid her mother. She sat down directly and asked, ¡°Is Qinghai Ben back?¡±

    "Yes, Queen Mother, including Zishan Pass, Bailanqiang has officially become my territory in the Tang Dynasty."

    "The Ai family is very happy." Wu Zetian said with a smile on his face, "Your father's biggest regret during his lifetime was Qinghai."

    "yes."

    "The winter solstice is coming soon. Please accompany the Ai family to see your father."

    "My son, I obey."

    "Also, is the national treasury very tight?" Wu Zetian knew this very well, after all, she had been handling government affairs for so many years.

    "Yes, I am currently discussing this matter."

    "Over the years, you have given the Ai family some jewelry. There is also some cloth in the Daming Palace. The Ai family has not used it much. I just asked the servant to take stock. The price is about five million yuan. You can take it and use it." (Unfinished)  to be continued)
