Chapter 561 Volume 5 The sinister Li Chengqian

When Li Chengqian received the news, he was not surprised at all.

After all, in their eyes, the Supi rebels are nothing more than clowns.

To be able to keep them running for so long was because Ming Dynasty needed it for its own reasons. Otherwise, these guys would have been easily taken down by Da Buqu.

This is not nonsense. If it had been done three years ago, Dabuqu would have won more decisively. After all, these three years of victory have indeed allowed this Subi rebel army to develop rare confidence.

"Let the army march out. Today, the army will camp in Nanfu." Li Chengqian said with a smile.

Now that the Ming Dynasty's army has stationed in Supi, the next thing will be much simpler.

When Xue Rengui heard this, he immediately gathered his army and went straight to Zhennan Mansion.

They were not far apart in the first place, but in the afternoon, the army arrived at Zhennan Mansion.

On the Zhennan Mansion side, because Salmon Qibi had already led his people to the front line, those who stayed to receive Li Chengqian were the close men of Salmon Qibi.

At first, this confidant was a little uneasy. After all, His Highness came in person and the general was not there. He was worried about what Li Chengqian had in mind. However, Li Chengqian waved his hand and praised Qibi Samana. This made the confidant confused.

Its solution.

Shouldn't it be the anger after being slighted?

Why are you praising me?

Of course, he couldn't figure out Li Chengqian's pulse. After settling down Li Chengqian and his party, he stopped hanging around in front of Li Chengqian.

At this moment, the Changming Army was in the temporary Chinese army tent.

Li Chengqian gathered everyone together and said: "Now, even if all the Supi rebels have not been killed, they are already out of control. The next step is the most critical time.

What do you think?"

"Your Highness, what's the reaction from King Supi?" Xue Rengui asked, "It's impossible that King Supi didn't receive news about today's battle."

Li Chengqian nodded and then looked at Ma Ye.

Ma Ye immediately said: "Just after the defeat of the Subi rebels, King Subi has personally led an army of ten thousand people to move north. At this moment, it has reached this position."

As he spoke, he pointed out on the map of Kanyu, which happened to be the junction of the areas occupied by the Subi rebels.

"Then who is in charge of their war with Tubo now?" Xue Rengui asked.

"Speaking of this, it is interesting. Shortly after the Subi rebels broke the dam, Lunkeer of Tibet led his army to retreat thirty miles.

The entangled battle between the two sides has also stopped.

Now the two sides are just confronting each other and are not continuing.

Moreover, Tubo Shang Nang and his army are showing signs of moving northward. Judging from their current marching trajectory, they are probably also aiming to join Lunchel."

"Good guy, they have a tacit understanding." Hearing this, Cheng Chuliang also smiled and said, "Your Highness, are we going to take advantage of the situation and capture Su Pi?

As long as Supi is captured, Tubo will be alone."

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Tubo and Supi are guarding against the Ming Dynasty.

When the Ming Dynasty did not come, they were mortal enemies, but once the Ming Dynasty entered the scene, they became friends again.

Again, this land can either be named Su or Tu, but it cannot be named Ming.

Li Chengqian shook his head and said: "Don't be too hasty. We have wiped out the Supi rebels this time. It is reasonable for them to worry that Ming Dynasty will continue to go south.

There are no permanent friends between countries, only permanent interests.

Moreover, going to war with Subi and Tubo now will have some impact on us, at least our soldiers have not adapted to the plateau climate.

This alone is extremely disadvantageous to us.”

This is also the reason why Li Chengqian asked Da Buqu to lead his army to be stationed in Supi in the first place, because only in this way could the Ming Dynasty have an army adapted to the plateau climate.

Even though it is just a climate problem, it can really kill people at critical moments.

"Then what should we do now?" Li Jingren asked.

Li Chengqian thought for a while and said: "Ma Ye, please send someone to inform King Subi that I will meet with him at the place where the rebels are in Supi for an alliance, and the time will be noon the day after tomorrow.

At the same time, the news of the death of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty must be spread clearly, especially the matter of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty recruiting me to return to Beijing for the funeral.

I want to let King Subi know the difficulty I am in now.

Otherwise, if he really thinks that I am here to send troops south, he may join forces with Tibet, which is not the result I want to see."

When Ma Ye heard this, he immediately bowed and accepted the order.

As soon as Ma Ye left, Cheng Chuliang hesitated and said: "In this case, is His Highness's situation a bit dangerous? After all, it is in Supi's territory. Who knows if they have any back-ups?

How about changing the location of the alliance to Zhennan Mansion?"

"Changed to Zhennan Mansion?" Li Chengqian said with a smile, "How long do you think the news of my army going south can be kept secret? At this time, maybe King Subi has learned about the situation and changed it to Zhennan Mansion. How dare he come?

However, he does not dare to come to Zhennan Mansion, but I dare to go to the territory of the Supi rebels!

Besides, with an army of tens of thousands, does King Subi still dare to assassinate me?

Not to mention Su Pi, even if Su Pi joins forces with Tubo, I, the Ming Dynasty, will be afraid, right?

The reason for this is simply because I am not willing to sacrifice too many soldiers of our Ming Dynasty.

If you want to fight hard, it’s not impossible!”

Cheng Chuliang and others also nodded after hearing this.

This is indeed the truth.

With the current strength of the Ming Dynasty, it is possible to defeat Supi and Tubo by joining forces.

But if you do this, your own strength will be damaged.

But now that he had some trouble with Datang, Li Chengqian had to make some preparations.

"But can Supi win over?"

It may be difficult to unite with Supi to deal with Tubo.

After all, King Subi must also understand the principle of dying lips and cold teeth."

"Just do your best and obey fate." Li Chengqian also shook his head.

He actually doesn't have much confidence, but that doesn't mean he has no ideas.

But before everything settled, he didn't dare to boast easily.

"By the way, General Xue, the Changming Army must be prepared for the worst. If this alliance does not go well, then we will have to fight a tough battle."

To be honest, Li Chengqian was unwilling to fight a tough battle at this time, not because he couldn't fight, but mainly because Ming Dynasty still had strong enemies on its side.

He did not return to Chang'an this time. God knows what the attitude of Chang'an is?

…………

And when Ma Ye's people came to the Supi camp, King Subi was stunned when he heard this.

"We will make an alliance? We will make an alliance at this time? It's still in Subi's territory!" King Subi really didn't expect it.

"Yes, I, Ming Dynasty, have some unspeakable secrets when I go south this time. I will invite His Highness to come in person. My king will definitely give His Highness a satisfactory answer." Ma Ye's subordinate said.

Of course, someone has also taught me this.

Otherwise, guys like them who lick blood from their swords would never be able to say such elegant things.

King Subi hesitated for a moment after hearing this, but did not rush to reply. Instead, he asked his subordinates to take the people down for a short rest. Then he said to his confidants in the camp: "What do you think the Ming Dynasty means?"

"Your Highness, could this be related to the death of the Tang Dynasty Emperor?" a confidant said immediately.

The news of Li Yuan's death naturally reached them. After all, it was such a big thing.

For this reason, Su Pi also specially sent envoys to Tang Dynasty.

"The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty died?" King Subi murmured.

"Yes." The confidant continued, "Recently, I heard that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty declared all the kings in the world, and his relatives returned to Chang'an to mourn the Supreme Emperor. Is this King Ming unwilling to go back..."

"Why doesn't he want to go back?" King Subi heard this and snorted coldly, "In today's Tang Dynasty, who can challenge his position as crown prince?

With his current status, he can be said to be the most powerful prince in history, so what is he worried about?"

"That's what you say." Someone said, "But now the emperor of the Tang Dynasty is at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period. Do you really want to see such a powerful prince?"

"Wait a minute..." King Subi waved his hand and said, "Let's ignore this for now. After all, we don't know the specific situation. The question now is, should we go to this alliance?

If I go, will King Ming have any conspiracy?

If I don't go, will it seem that I, Su Bi, am a little timid again?

After all, they even placed the place where the alliance will be held on my Supi territory."

He was unwilling to analyze the conflict between Li Er and his son. He was not a party to this matter and he knew nothing about it.

Speaking of this, everyone fell silent.

In fact, they all know why the Ming Dynasty was willing to support Su Pi all these years. But now that the Ming Dynasty army is moving south, you want to ask them if they are panicked, haha, it would be strange if they are not panicked.

They have the strength to confront Tubo, but in recent years, after experiencing the power of Ming's weapons, their fear of Ming has become deeper and deeper.

"Your Highness, I think we can go." After a while, someone said, "If we talk about military strength alone, I, Su Pi, am definitely no match for the Ming Dynasty. This is not because Wei Chen will increase the morale of others and destroy his own prestige.

This is an objective fact.

Even though we are already here, if the Ming Dynasty really wants to send its troops south, we cannot stop it.

Although Tubo and we have a tacit understanding in this regard, it is ultimately the power of others, which is too illusory.

It’s better to take this opportunity to find out what Ming’s intention is.”
