Chapter 2020 I finally guessed the nephew's thoughts on Cole
Speaking of Cole, when I saw the questioning look from my nephew, the king, I couldn't help but feel a deep pain in my stomach.
What does this bitch want to do? I have not been in command of the army for many years, and I have been playing nice for a long time, okay?
What's wrong with you? What should I do if you insist on asking me?
But the question is, since he asked the question, how dare he not answer it? Lun Cole racked his brains and thought hard for a long time before giving an answer.
"My veteran thought that this was the plan of the famous Tang general Li Ji, who wanted to contain my Tibetan troops.
Let me, Tubo, not be able to mobilize all his troops to march north in order to capture Tuyuhun."
Songtsen Gampo raised his eyebrows in displeasure, narrowed his eyes slightly, and spoke in a deep voice.
"In your opinion, do you think I, Tubo, will commit the same careless behavior as the last time I was defeated in Jianchuan City?"
Hearing these words and hearing the displeasure in Songtsen Gampo's tone, Lunkeer was instantly startled and quickly fell down, saying with sincere fear.
"I dare not..."
"..." Songtsen Gampo looked at his uncle who had prostrated himself on the ground and was completely cowarded. For a moment, he didn't know how to express his feelings.
However, this familiar speed of prostrating himself was in line with his uncle's previous attitude towards him.
It seems that it is a long-term task to make my uncle, who has become so cowardly that he is lying down and thinks twice about everything, become more rigid again.
"Okay, uncle, get up quickly, it doesn't have to be like this."
"Then Emperor Tang really thinks that such intimidation will make Tubo give up on capturing Tuyuhun?"
Although this time Lun Keer quickly echoed the sentence, the imperial minister on the side looked a little worried.
"But Zanpu, Cheng Chubi is brave and resourceful, and has great prestige among the Zhao and Xun people in the central and southern areas of Jiannan Road.
Before that, he had summoned a group of soldiers to attack Jianchuan City unexpectedly, but Gal Dongzan was defeated by him in a battle of wits in the Tang Dynasty.
If Zanpu ignores Cheng Chubi, I am worried that if he recruits a large number of imperial edicts and invades our southern territory of Tubo, I am afraid..."
After hearing the advice of the imperial minister, Songtsen Gampo couldn't help but frown. After all, the Emperor of Tang sent Li Ke and Cheng Chubi to Yaozhou.
No matter how many soldiers and horses they have, they still have to be careful, otherwise, if they raise a large army to attack Tuyuhun.
This kid suddenly stabbed himself in the back with a knife. If he was not careful, it would be great fun if he really suffered a loss.

But the problem is that before they suppressed Shang Nang's group, and then dealt with Galdongzan's group.
Coupled with the fact that they now dare not reuse the Xiangxiong people who surrendered, there are already very few generals under their command who are good at fighting.
Now that a large army is being raised to attack Tuyuhun, most of the soldiers and horses in the country will inevitably be taken away. The leader will naturally be himself, the leader of the Tubo Kingdom.
After all, he really didn't trust others to take control of such a large army.
So, who should be sent to deal with the Tang Dynasty's actions in Yaozhou? Songtsen Gampo's eyes wandered for a long time, and finally fell on his uncle Lunkel.
"Uncle, you have always been cautious in using troops and are the best at defending. But now there are very few good generals in the country, so you have asked your uncle to serve as the southern governor.
Command the troops and horses, strictly guard the Bowo and Chavarong areas in the south, and order the tribes in the south to send troops to prevent the Tang Kingdom from invading our southern Tibet."
While he was talking, Songtsen Gampo came to Lunkel and placed his big hand on his uncle's shoulder.
"At this moment, the only general I can trust in command of the army is my uncle."
Lunkeer quickly bent down and saluted respectfully. "Zanpu is so fond of it, I will definitely guard the south for Zanpu."
"Okay, okay, with my uncle's promise, I feel relieved. I will transfer 20,000 elite troops to my uncle. I just need to defend the south..."
After hearing this, Songtsen Gampo smiled and patted his shoulder heavily with his big hand.
As long as my uncle, who is as steady as an old dog, can avoid making the same aggressive mistakes as that reckless fool Shang Duojie.
I believe that with his ability, there will be no problem in safely guarding the southern region.
However, his uncle had not led troops in battles for many years, and Songtsen Gampo could not help but feel a little worried. After pondering for a while, he gave instructions to the imperial minister.
"Go and call Cidan Ruben and Dan Zengruben."
Songtsen Gampo turned his head and said to Lunkeer with a pleasant expression.
"Uncle, I will provide you with two deputies. These two are both brave and resourceful generals."
Hearing this, Lunkeer breathed a sigh of relief and saluted Songtsen Gampo.
"Thank you Zampu. With the help of these two brave and resourceful generals, I will feel more at ease..."
Very good, it seems that the nephew of the king really had a purpose in testing him before. He must be worried that when he was assigned an important task, he might have other thoughts.
That's why I beat myself up like that. It seems now that I clearly want my uncle, the leader of the country, to understand.
Even if I am the head coach, I still have to give those two Wanhu more opportunities to perform meritoriously.
Sigh... This nephew's methods become more and more unpredictable as he grows older. It is really difficult for people to guess what he is thinking.
Songtsen Gampo nodded slightly, he really didn't want to send someone to spy on his uncle.
I'm really just worried that he hasn't led the troops in battle for many years, and that he won't be able to command those proud and powerful generals after being absent from the army for a long time.

In Yaozhou City, Yaozhou Governor Ning Zhi looked at the newly arrived Wu kings Li Ke and Cheng Sanlang, as well as Fang Jun and the man named Ren Yaxiang.
This is the team of Yaozhou Governor's Mansion. To be honest, Yaozhou Governor Ning Zhi is very grateful to Cheng Sanlang for taking back the Jianchuan City for Yaozhou.
Finally, the Yaozhou area no longer worried about Tibetan invasion all the time. However, as the governor of Yaozhou for many years.
He really wasn't happy to have another immediate boss on his head.
But the question is, don't you want to be able to ride a horse? The imperial court has issued a decree, and a group of people from the Yaozhou Governor's Mansion squatted in front of you.
After moving into the newly established Yaozhou Governor's Mansion, could I still say no?
Although there were distracting thoughts in his heart, Governor Ning still reported his dealings with the Tubo people during this period to his immediate superior, Li Ke.
There was naturally a reason why he sent officials to deal with the southern Tubo territory on a whim.
That is, the Tubo people are very unfriendly to the small tribes that are not from the Tubo clans, as well as the Qiang and Zhao tribes that are not from the Tubo clan.
It can almost be said that treating them all as slaves, well, let’s make it clear that Tubo is a plateau kingdom of slavery.
The common people are all Tubo people of Tubo clan descent, and those Qiang and Zhao tribesmen, in the eyes of the Tubo officials, are completely like the granary of Tubo.
