Chapter 96: The Dragon-Tiger Meeting

 Li Kuan had heard of Lu Dongzan's name as early as when he was in Liangzhou. He was a man of bright and determined nature. He taught military training and was elegant and restrained. Tubo conquered the Qiang and dominated the mainland, and he had many plans.<

/p>

Seeing the real person and looking at his appearance, Li Kuan could only say that strange people must have different appearances. But behind him was the second son Qinling Zanzhuo, who was tall and tall and had a majestic appearance.

"Come on, Gar, let me introduce to you. This is my second son - King Kuan of Chu. He is good at martial arts and proficient in the art of war. He is quite similar to me."

"Even though he is young, he has already fought many big battles, fierce battles, and is one of the best in bow and arrow and spear skills among the princes."

Lu Dongzan was also a man who knew things. Seeing Li Kuan's nobility and good looks, he thought that he must be a dandy with a cage and a bird, and he was classified as a person like Zhao Kuo who exaggerated.

Category 1.

Then he praised the Heavenly Khan and his two husbands, saying that the Celestial Dynasty was rich in treasures, people were outstanding, and the royal family was able to cultivate heroic and martial sons in this way. The Tang Dynasty would surely last for generations to come.

This is a polite word, everyone can hear it, it is a typical diplomatic rhetoric. It is nothing more than politeness, no one cares about whether it is true or not.

But the deputy envoy Qinling Zanzhuo stood up and asked Li Kuan: "Foreign minister, please tell me, what battles has your highness fought?"

Seeing this, Lu Dongzan also scolded Li Shimin, and then handed Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, the Khan of Heaven, I don't know the etiquette of the Celestial Empire, please forgive me."

Of course Li Shimin saw that this was a show, and waved his hand in a pretense of magnanimity: "I am not surprised by the affairs between the younger generations, and I will not participate."

Seeing the emperor handing him the ball, Li Kuan replied calmly: "It doesn't matter how many battles we have fought, the key is whether we can win."

This is a foreign affairs exchange between the two countries. As the Prime Minister of Military Affairs, Fang Xuanling, has the responsibility to open the eyes of the Tang Dynasty: "The envoy does not know that my dynasty is different from your country. The promotion of the army is calculated based on the rate of the first captive."<

/p>

"Even if you are a prince, you can only join the army as a soldier. This is the guarantee of the combat effectiveness and cohesion of our Tang army."

In the sixth year of Zhenguan, the King of Chu joined the Liangzhou Army. In the ninth year of Zhenguan, he followed General Duan Zhixuan of Zuo Xiaowei to attack Qinghai Lake. In November of the same year, he participated in the Liangzhou Defense War, beheaded thirty levels, and accumulated meritorious service to the rank of Xuangjie Xiaowei.

In the 10th year of Zhenguan, he was incorporated into the Xihai Road with the army and participated in the battles of Mandu Mountain and Niuxindui. In the battle of Chishuiyuan, Sui Qibi Heli fought to the death, rescued his comrades who were trapped in the siege, and escaped safely from tens of thousands of troops.

Breakout.

In the Battle of Chihai, he beheaded another king and was commended and promoted to the rank of Zhaowu Colonel, the sixth rank. Then following the gathering of Hou Jun, Li Daozong went west to pursue the remaining enemy for two thousand miles, captured three members of the Tuyuhun royal family, and was promoted to guerrilla general.

The King of Chu was wise, brave, loyal, filial, benevolent and caring for his soldiers. He was the leader of the younger generation in the army. He shared weal and woe with the soldiers and was quite popular among them.

Fang Xuanling's words made Lu Dongzan and his son look at Li Kuan again. Who would have thought that such a dignified prince actually started as an ordinary soldier and climbed up step by step.

This also forced them to re-examine the Tang Army's combat effectiveness. If their officers were selected in this way and their promotions were so strict, it would be a terrible thing.

Haha, seeing Lu Dongzan and his son being deceived, Wei Zheng couldn't hold back his laughter for a moment. He was laughing in his heart that Fang Xuanling was bullying someone who was from a foreign country, so he was fooling people.

It is true that promotions in the Tang army depended on the rate of the chief prisoners, but that was only for civilian officers from common people. Not to mention that the children of nobles were given official positions at birth. Among the royal family, there was only a freak like the King of Chu.<

/p>

Lu Dongzan noticed something was wrong and immediately asked: "May I ask Mr. Zheng, why are you laughing?"

When Wei Zheng saw the emperor glaring at him, he knew that he had violated his etiquette, and he did not dare to break through the window paper. He thought for a moment, shook his head and sighed: "The envoy doesn't know the King of Chu? How confused!"

These words confused Lu Dongzan. He looked back at Li Kuan and replied seriously: "I really don't know! Please give me some advice, Mr. Zheng."

Wei Zheng also smiled: "The envoy came for the war between the two countries, but he didn't know about the battle of Songfengling. I, the commander of the forward camp of the Tang Army."

"The man who conquered Songfengling and killed the defender Shang Ming was none other than the King of Chu."

What???

Wei Zheng's words really shocked Lu Dongzan and his son. The Tubo soldiers who had participated in the Battle of Songfengling were fearful of the Tang general with black armor and halberd, calling him the Hell-Blooded Demon God.
p>

But what Lu Dongzan and his son couldn't figure out was that the black-armored Tang general was clearly surnamed Du and was already dead. Could it be that the Tubo soldiers had misunderstood? Or was it that the Emperor of Tang was risking the lives of others to intimidate our country in order to gain momentum?
p>

Seeing that he didn't believe it, Wei Zheng waved his hand: "Hey, the envoy is so unreasonable. If the prince joins the army under his real name, how can he conceal his identity? As for the King of Chu's resurrection from desperate circumstances, that is another legend."

"General Du Jing is the King of Chu, and it is well known to everyone in Chang'an. If the envoy does not believe it, he can go and find out."

After thanking Wei Zheng for his advice, Lu Dongzan looked at Li Kuan for a long time, and then he raised his hand to the steps: "Your Majesty, Tian Khan, I really didn't expect that the Hell Blood Demon God is the King of Chu of your country."

"I have spent my whole life fighting and have seen many brave generals, but the only one who can turn the tide of the war with one person is the King of Chu."

"Your Majesty, please allow foreign ministers to pay tribute to the King of Chu!"

After receiving the permission, Lu Dongzan bowed his hand to Li Kuan to express his respect for the strong man. He also told Li Kuan that the Tibetan army did not know Li Kuan's identity and still respected the Hell-Blooded Demon God.

Being able to gain the respect of his enemies shows that Li Kuan is capable. Li Shimin and the three prime ministers are naturally happy to see this happen.

But Li Kuan did not ask for help. He returned the salute to Lu Dongzan and said with a smile: "The envoy is ridiculous. Kuan is just an ordinary general in the Tang army. A general like me, Tian Khan drove a chariot to carry Dou Liang."

, countless."

"On the contrary, the envoy, together with Tunmi Sambuza, Zhi Sairugondun, and Niang Chisangyangdun, became the four virtuous ministers. The new prime minister of Tubo is none other than Your Excellency!"

Lu Dongzan narrowed his eyes, and felt suspicious in his heart. This King of Chu was young, his words were precise, and he was so knowledgeable about our country. Could it be that the Tang Dynasty had the intention of spying on me, Tubo?

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

During the Battle of Songzhou, the Hell-Blooded Demon God had become a thorn in the side of the Tubo army. If this King of Chu was really him, he would be a thorn in the side of the Tubo army.

Ludongzan, who had a calm expression on his face and showed a look of admiration, glanced at the deputy envoy Qinling Zandhuo and used his second son to test him.

Qinling Zanzhuo and Shang Ming studied literature under Shang Nang. He could not care about the grudges between Zanpu and his teacher. But the brothers who grew up together fell into the hands of the King of Chu. This is a blood feud!<

/p>

"Your Highness should apologize. Why can't the foreign ministers see so many brave generals?"

"Foreign ministers have no chance to see His Majesty's power in Songfengling. Why don't we have a competition today to help His Majesty Tian Khan?"

This time Qinling Zanzhuo challenged the King of Chu, but Lu Dongzan did not stop him. Anyone could see that the Tubo people did it deliberately.

It made Li Shimin very displeased, and he even lowered his face in foreign affairs situations. He just started provoking a war, but now he comes to my palace to beat my son?

Immediately he looked at the new commander of Jiucheng Palace, General Zuojianmen, the Duke of Wulian County, Li Junxian, who was standing at the gate of the palace.

In his early years, when Jieli went south, he and Yuchi Jingde were ordered to meet the enemy and relieve the danger of Chang'an. Li Shimin once praised: Jun Xian is so brave, why should the strong captives worry?

As a North Gate guard, Li Junxian was strong and brave, and was a first-class warrior on the battlefield. It was perfect for him to teach the Tubo people a lesson.

Li Junxian naturally understood it and was about to surrender for a fight, but he didn't want to be blocked by Li Kuan's crossbar.

I saw Li Kuan roll up his sleeves, lift up the hem and tuck it into his belt, and said with a faint smile: "What do you want to do, general?"

Yes! Li Kuan is talking about playing, so winning or losing has nothing to do with the two countries.

Qinling Zanzhuo couldn't help but smile when he heard this: "His Royal Highness won the name of the Hell Blood Demon God with the Euphorbia, foreign ministers must learn this!"
