Zhizhang Datang

Chapter 436 Sense of Crisis

Princess Wencheng's entry into Tibet may be said to be a strategic move under the dominance of the Tang Dynasty, occupying the moral high ground in name, but this is a marriage after all. Lin Sen feels that this is no different from an insult to the generals. When did Tang's safety need to be obtained by sacrificing a woman's happiness.

What's more, Princess Wencheng's entry into Tibet in history is equivalent to giving Songtsan Gampo a big banner. In a sense, it allows him to borrow the power of Tang Dynasty when he integrates the interior later, and also gives him a stable external development. environment.

And more importantly, Princess Wencheng did not go there empty-handed. She was accompanied by various advanced planting and smelting techniques, as well as many craftsmen. These things were sent over, but their productivity was actually rapidly increased. It can be said that the improvement of the entire national strength is immediate.

It turns out that the armor of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty cannot be broken with a single knife. With the weapon making method of the Tang Dynasty, it can be done. Isn't this equivalent to helping them deal with their own soldiers?

On this point, Lin Sen also gave Li Shimin a painful confession. Regardless of whether the marriage can be prevented or not, it is necessary to prevent the spread of this stupid technology. This is the real behavior of supporting the enemy. Of course, Lin Sen dare not be so blatant It's enough to scold Li Shimin, but it's not so tactful.

On the contrary, Lin Sen would be very happy to send some old scholars and so-called eminent monks. The great Confucians can practice their ideals and beliefs, and educate the locals not to use weapons rashly. It is best to teach all the Tubo nobles to become A modest gentleman who can only move his mouth but not his hands is a great blessing to the people of the Tang Dynasty.

The eminent monks entering Tibet must also focus on harming the nobles, turning them all into submissive quails and sheep, and must not preach to those gangs of slaves. The slaves whose life is not as good as pigs and dogs are still content with the status quo, which is a good thing for Tubo.

Lin Sen also hoped that there would be a few more Spartacus-like characters on their side, and lead many local slaves to rebel from time to time, so as to give Songtsan Gambo some more fun, which would be a waste of their national power But very straightforward.

Well, can Datang encourage them more?Hey, a country of slavery, a country of justice like Datang is simply unattractive.

As for ordinary people, it is better to have more believers from local sects. If they are treated unfairly, they will be fucked.

Sowing dissension, driving tigers to devour wolves, and using multiple approaches to let internal and external troubles erupt at the same time, I don't believe they can rise so quickly like this.

As for how Lin Sen knew this?It can't be said that later generations know about it, Lin Sen must have been prepared for it.

Do you really think that he has been simply staying at home with his wife and children all these years, and he doesn't want to make progress at all?There must be some preparations in private.

For example, the ones he bought back, no, they should be the Gurkha fighters who were sent as heads, and Lin Sen sent them out early to the Tubo Plateau, where they could just use their skills.

After special training, compared with ordinary Gurkha warriors, they are not 01:30 points stronger.

Of course, they were not there to fight. No matter how tough they were, their numbers were limited after all. Lin Sen sent them there as a caravan, at least on the surface.

There is no shortage of gold and silver ornaments and gems of various colors on the plateau, as well as top-grade leather and medicinal materials. In short, there are not a few goods that can be traded.

And because of the unique environment of the plateau, the people of Tang Dynasty have always regarded it as a daunting way, so the development of this trade route has not been very good.

Then the corresponding plateau goods have become rare items. Although it will take longer to go back and forth, it is definitely profitable to transport them back.

There were actually other Nibra warriors who were also brought back, and of course they were mercenaries.

Since I missed the battles in the early days of the founding of the country, there was no other way to quickly strengthen the strength of my subordinates, so I had to find a way under the existing conditions.

Slaves and the mountain people on the expansion village, these two methods have actually never stopped, and mercenaries are also a method.

The Lin family caravan is now fully qualified to say that it is the largest caravan in Datang on the plateau, and in terms of understanding of the plateau, no one can match it.

The goods brought back by the caravan were not simply sold, but were made into luxury goods with higher profit margins for sale as always.

Some have become new products launched by Lancôme, which have achieved good response, while others have become high-quality goods in auctions, and fetched gratifying prices.

Can Li Shimin not believe the information about the plateau brought back by such a caravan?
Of course, in addition to using this place as a business route and a source of soldiers, Lin Sen also intended to use this place as a way of retreat, and intelligence has indeed always been one of the focuses of their attention.

With the deepening relationship with Li Chengqian and the revenge from other princes, Lin Sen's sense of crisis and unreliability became stronger and stronger.

The plateau is also very vast, and in the entire history of the Tang Dynasty, it seems that there has been no successful counterattack to the plateau, at least no experience of going deep into the hinterland of the plateau.

I really encountered the worst situation and had to retreat. It might be a good way to retreat to the plateau.

It is really necessary for Lin Sen to be able to show some real miracles. In a place like the plateau where the environment and humanities are more primitive, it is not difficult to package himself as a real fairy.

As far as his ability to transform and give birth to plants is shown, let alone on the plateau, even in the Tang Dynasty, he is undoubtedly a living god.

He also has the same miraculous medical skills. It is not easy to be admired by others, and even to have a large number of fanatics.

Not to mention occupying the plateau, it is not a problem to ensure that you have your own place.

In fact, those Gurkha war slaves were able to run so loyally for him on the plateau because they had witnessed Lin Sen's magic.

Of course, Lin Sen did it on purpose. After all, it was to be operated as a place of retreat. If the early manpower was not loyal enough, it would not be possible to develop it in the future.

Moreover, when the Gurkhas returned to the grasslands, without the constraints of the household registration system of Datang, it would not be too easy to escape.

Not showing these things as a guarantee, but also worrying about their existence, strengthened the power on the plateau.

These are not the same as ordinary warriors. They are the top-level killing machines that have undergone comprehensive training.

After returning to the grassland, it might not be too difficult to develop one's own power.

In fact, Lin Sen had indeed arranged for some people to do this, but he only selected the most loyal ones.
