In May, the wasteland in the southern part of the plateau has returned to life, but the war has turned this peaceful land into a battlefield again.
People who have lived here for generations have taken up swords and guns, new hatred has arisen between tribes, and there is constant bloodshed between city-states.
Three major forces are coercing various tribes, and they are engaged in a confrontation that never seems to stop.
The war in the first two years was extremely chaotic. Subi and Xiangxiong gradually regained their independence and raised the old royal flag.
The Yalong tribe, which had ruled Tubo for many years, fell into civil strife. They had been tracing the murderer who poisoned Langri Lunzan, and used this to carry out a large-scale internal purge.
Taking advantage of the opportunity when the Yalong tribe was busy taking care of themselves, Xiang Xiong and Su Pi expanded their sphere of influence.
The Xiangxiong people occupied the Nimushu area, looking at Luoche City, the former royal city of Tubo, their saliva flowed all over the floor.
The Supi people also penetrated deep into the hinterland of Shannan.
The little queen Subimuluo personally led the army to take back the sacred lake of the Subi people, and regarded the wild horse Yilin beside the lake as her royal city.
She is much more ambitious than the Xiangxiong people. The Xiangxiong people now only have Luoche City in their eyes, but she has already sent troops to occupy Chuza in the northeast of Luoche City, bypassed Luoche City, and captured the city on the Yalong River.
Kuwanoji Temple.
In the past two years, she has been wanting to cross the river to attack the Six Yak tribe stationed in the Yalong Valley area, and completely eradicate these feudal enemies who have committed countless crimes against the Supi people.
But the reason why the Xiangxiong people are unwilling to unite with the Supi people is not entirely because the Xiangxiong people are short-sighted, but because the two ancient city-states are very different from each other in terms of beliefs and customs.
The Buddhism inherited by the Xiangxiong people from Tianzhu has indeed influenced all tribes in the wilderness, but the most profound influence has been on themselves.
Therefore, the Xiangxiong people are not warlike. They are simply two extremes from the Supi people, a tribal city-state with Asura as their main god. They are more like the difference between the Central Plains people and the grassland nomads, which is as big as it is irreparable.
Therefore, the Xiangxiong people are more willing to interact with the Yalong people and are wary of the warlike Supi people.
After two years of war, although the Supi and Xiangxiong tribes entered the hinterland of Shannan and formed a certain siege on the Yalong people.
But it has always been a stalemate.
If the Central Plains generals arrive here, they will actually understand very clearly that as time goes by, the Supi people are already at a disadvantage.
Luoxue City is stuck there like a nail, attracting everyone's attention, just like Jingzhou during the Three Kingdoms.
The Six Yak Tribe retreated to the Yalong Valley area on the south bank of the river, across the river from the Subi people. Today, the civil strife in the Yalong Tribe has gradually subsided, and each tribe has established a new king. They have not been seriously injured.
Strength is recovering quickly.
The reason why there has been no counterattack is due to the disastrous defeat of the expeditionary force led by Zhileb and Nangni in the highlands.
They took away too many generals and warriors who were capable of fighting, leaving the Yalong tribe a little weak.
But this year, the war in the wasteland finally took a drastic turn.
…………
On the south bank of the Yalong River, the young abandoned Zong Nongzan (Songtsen Gampo, all transliterations, in order to avoid 404 divine punishment, changed the name to a name that most people don't know) is riding on a horse, watching the rushing river.
Surrounding him were the leaders of the Six Yak Tribes with various feathers on their heads.
Qi Zong Nongzan is fourteen years old this year. In the eyes of the Tubo people, he is already a standard adult man and can independently build a tent of his own.
He has the pure blood of the God King flowing in his body and is the most favored son of the God. He has no brothers competing with him for the throne because he is the only son of Langri Lunzan.
If there had not been civil strife in Tubo, he should have succeeded to the Tubo throne smoothly after the death of Langri Lunzan, but now he is just the king of the Yalong people.
Because Langri Lunzan was poisoned to death, with the help of his uncle Lunkel and minister Shang Nang, he led the people of the Yalong tribe to abandon the royal capital and retreat to Pibo City.
He has not been idle in the past few years. He killed two uncles and more than a dozen tribal leaders of the Yalong tribe. The crime was that he poisoned his father.
In fact, this was a purge and counterinsurgency event. He personally led the warriors who were extremely loyal to him and used more than a dozen battles to end the rebellion in Niangbo, the Ministry of Industry and other places.
Killed all the old nobles who were extremely dissatisfied with his father.
Of course, no matter how brilliant the later records about him were, in fact a teenage boy was not enough to control such a complicated situation.
The ministers around him who support him are the key factor, but the Tubo tribe is still in the slave city-state period of primitive worship. No matter what the situation is, the people here need a figure with dazzling light to worship them.
Therefore, Qizong Nongzan, like his father and ancestor, is like a living god. No one can shake his position, otherwise it will mean the collapse of his godhead, and no one will benefit.
Only when Qi Zong Nongzan becomes familiar with his throne and gradually matures can his intelligence and talents be put to use.
Just like now, he did not listen to the advice of his ministers and insisted on bringing eight thousand warriors from the Yalong tribe to the river, hoping to start the journey to restore the glory of Tubo.
Because he believed that although the tribes on the north bank and the west were held hostage by the Supi and Xiangxiong people, most of them still remembered what Tibet had given them and did not want to be enemies with them.
In other words, the descendants of the Seven Kings will still be welcomed there, they just need to defeat those stubborn guys and punish them on behalf of the gods.
Moreover, he did not want the Xiangxiong and Supi people to gain a foothold again. The longer it was delayed, the harder it would be to restore Tubo's rule.
Based on this judgment, he raised troops and headed north when the internal situation was not yet stable.
…………
Young Zamp, like other nobles, has a dark complexion, a strong and powerful body, and seems to be filled with energy. His eyes looking towards the other side are deep and determined. From every angle, he is indeed far beyond comparison with his peers.
He patted his chest casually, which aroused all ambition and ambition.
At such a moment, he felt that something was missing. After thinking about it, he turned around and waved, and an attendant immediately sent him a beautiful wooden box with understanding.
The young king opened it casually, took out a dark meatball, chewed it and swallowed it.
Experiencing that wonderful feeling carefully, his eyes were a little blurred, and his already healthy complexion quickly turned red.
The nobles nearby looked at the contents in the wooden box with envious and greedy expressions. They knew that it was a gift from the gods that had been passed down to Shannan from the distant Tang Dynasty.
Only the most beloved sons of the gods deserve to enjoy it.
It has a very weird name, Hanshi Powder...
