Zongwu: Oh my god! I'm actually a villain

Chapter 323: The war between Goryeo and Tang Dynasty, and the precarious Tang Empire!

Su Chen became even more confused after hearing what Dugu Feng said.

Bi Xuan of the Turks,

Fu Cailin of Goryeo,

How come these two people came to Luoyang City at the same time without any prior arrangement?

Luoyang City did not have any martial arts secrets or rare treasures, so how did two foreign masters come to Luoyang City? Was the arrival of two foreign masters just a coincidence?

Su Chen frowned and couldn't figure it out.

He looked at Dugu Feng and shook his head. This little beauty Dugu Feng might not know even more.

Dugu Feng saw Su Chen looking at her and shaking his head.

She asked doubtfully,

"What are you shaking your head for?"

Su Chen rubbed his forehead and said

"I can't understand why Bi Xuan and Fu Cailin, two foreign masters, came to Luoyang City at the same time."

"This is indeed a bit suspicious!"

"Xiao Feng'er, has there been a war in the Tang Dynasty recently?"

Dugu thought for a moment and said to Su Chen,

"War? No, since the Tang Dynasty had a conflict with the Turks, the Tang Dynasty paid a lot of money and food to the Turks, and there has been no war in the Tang Dynasty, but?"

"But what?"

"Su Chen, I heard from my grandma that the Tang Dynasty wanted to start a war against the Sui Dynasty not long ago, but there has been no movement for such a long time. I think it may not be true."

When Su Chen heard this, he smiled and said,

"I know this. The Tang Dynasty has 200,000 troops deployed in Jingxiang, but the Tang Dynasty does not dare to start a war."

"I have deployed 180,000 troops in Fancheng of the Great Sui Dynasty, and another 200,000 troops will be deployed in Fancheng within a month, nearly 400,000 Great Sui troops. Li Shimin should be worried that I will start a war against the Great Tang Dynasty."

Dugu Feng did not expect that Su Chen could actually command the army of the Sui Dynasty.

Four hundred thousand troops?

This is half of the army of the Sui Empire.

Did Su Chen control all the armies of the Sui Dynasty? Or did Su Chen already control the Sui Empire?

"Humph, you are becoming more and more powerful. Is the Great Sui Empire controlled by you?"

Su Chen hugged Dugu Feng and kissed her, saying, "Of course, Xiao Feng'er, you have to please me in the future. Maybe when I ascend the throne, I will make you a concubine."

Dugu wiped his face redly and yelled in shame and anger,

"Shameless pervert, I don't care about any imperial concubine."

Su Chen held Dugu in his arms and sat down, then teased, "Haha, Xiao Feng'er, do you want to be the queen?"

"Tsk, I don't want to. I want to roam freely in the martial arts world in the future."

Dugu Feng felt very uncomfortable when Su Chen held her and sat down.

This bastard really can't let go of her long legs, and Dugu Feng is really helpless towards Su Chen.

"Master, Madam You wants to see you!"

At this time,

Liu Sheng Piaoxu outside the room reported,

Su Chen heard You Chuhong coming.

He guessed that You Chuhong came to tell him some news.

"Let her in!"

"Yes, Master!"

Dugu Feng heard her grandmother coming,

She hurriedly got up from Su Chen's arms and straightened her dress. Dugu Feng didn't want her grandmother to find out that she and Su Chen were having a secret meeting here.

You Chuhong came into the room and looked at Dugu Feng first, then she nodded to Su Chen and said,

"Marquis Wuwei!"

Su Chen stood up and said to You Chuhong,

"Mrs. You, please take a seat!"

"Marquis Wuwei, I came here to tell you a piece of news."

"Old lady, please tell me?"

You Chuhong looked at Su Chen and said,

"Yesterday, Goryeo launched a war against the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty's Youzhou is in danger."

Su Chen was surprised when he heard You Chuhong's words and asked,

"What? Goryeo actually launched a war against the Tang Dynasty at this time? Is Goryeo taking advantage of the situation?"

You Chuhong nodded and said

"That should be the case. Since the Tang Empire paid a large amount of money and grain to the Turks as compensation, the Tang treasury is empty and grain is even more scarce. Goryeo may have seen that the Tang Empire is now at its weakest, so they want to take advantage of the opportunity to bite off a piece of fat meat."

Su Chen couldn't understand.

Goryeo was always afraid of an attack from the Central Plains Empire.

Why did Goryeo attack the Tang Empire this time? Was the Tang Empire really so poor that it could not even afford to eat?

"Madam, how many troops did Goryeo send out?"

"Three hundred thousand!"

Su Chen heard that Goryeo had dispatched 300,000 troops. This might be all of Goryeo’s troops. Does Goryeo really want to bite off a piece of fat from the Tang Dynasty this time?

Su Chen shook his head and said,

"Three hundred thousand troops? Tang's Youzhou may not be safe. What about the Turks? Are the Turks making any moves?"

·· ····Request flowers····· ···

You Chuhong continued to say to Su Chen,

"The Turks didn't make any moves, but the Turkic national teacher Bi Xuan and Goryeo's Fu Cailin appeared in Luoyang at the same time. I think Goryeo wants to unite with the powerful Turks."

You Chuhong had never expected that the powerful Tang Empire would fall into constant attacks by foreign races after a war with the Turks.

First, the Turks launched a war against the Tang Dynasty, and now the Goryeo people are launching a war against the Tang Dynasty.

What about next time?

Are they the Thirty-Six Kingdoms in the Western Regions?

Or Tubo?

The Tang Dynasty had a million troops.

But there are many foreign countries to guard against.

The Tang Dynasty is surrounded by enemy countries.

Not to mention that the Tang Empire and the Sui Empire were mortal enemies, even the relations with the Turks, Goryeo, Tibet, and even the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions were tense. The Tang Empire, which had only been established for more than ten years, had too many enemies.

...

Su Chen lowered his head and thought.

Goryeo sent out 300,000 troops to launch a war against the Tang Dynasty.

Although this was good news for him, Su Chen at least had time to integrate the Sui Empire.

But he couldn't figure it out.

If Goryeo wanted to form an alliance with the Turks, why would they choose to meet in Luoyang City of the Tang Dynasty?

This doesn't make sense at all.

"Madam You, did Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty ask for help from other Central Plains empires?"

You Chuhong shook her head and replied, "Not yet. However, even if Li Shimin asks for help from other Central Plains empires, other Central Plains empires will not help the Tang Empire."

Su Chen was very confused when he heard You Chuhong's words.

Isn’t there an unwritten rule in the Central Plains Empire?

When foreign nations attack the Central Plains Empire, will other Central Plains empires send troops to help? Why is it impossible for other Central Plains empires to help the Tang Empire?

"why?"

You Chuhong explained with an unpleasant expression,

"Li Shimin of the Tang Empire had Hu blood. In addition, Li Shimin launched the Xuanwu Gate Incident, killing his brothers and even taking his brother's widow into the imperial palace."

"Other Central Plains empires did not recognize the Tang Empire as a part of the Central Plains, and even other empires did not have any dealings with the Tang Empire. The Central Plains Empire did not take the opportunity to launch a war against the Tang Empire, which is already good enough."

Chapter 324: Temple of War? The Turkic Princess Yujia Arrives in Luoyang!

Su Chen was speechless when he heard You Chuhong's words.

It seems that all this is Li Shimin's fault.

Was the Tang Empire isolated by all the empires in the Central Plains? The various empires in the Central Plains did not even recognize the Tang Empire as a part of the Central Plains. Li Shimin had it all to himself!

Su Chen talked with You Chuhong for a while.

You Chuhong pulled Dugu Feng away.

Su Chen shook his head as he watched Dugu Feng being dragged away. Is You Chuhong afraid that she will eat Dugu Feng?

Liu Sheng Piao Xu was massaging Su Chen.

She asked doubtfully,

"Master, are you going to take this opportunity to start a war against the Tang Empire?"

Su Chen shook his head and said,

"No, although the Tang Empire is not recognized by the Central Plains Empire, the people in the Tang Empire are all from the Central Plains. I can't start a war against the Tang Empire at this time."

Su Chen thought that Li Shimin was short of money.

Lack of food and grass,

The war between Goryeo and Tang Dynasty,

Even if Li Shimin sold the imperial palace, he probably couldn't raise enough money and food for an army of four or five hundred thousand.

Unless Li Shimin takes action against those powerful families and noble families,

Otherwise, the Tang Empire would be in crisis.

Liu Sheng Piaoxu continued to ask, "Should we investigate the arrival of Bi Xuan and Fu Cailin?"

Su Chen thought about it and refused.

"No need. Our top priority is to rescue people from Jingnian Temple. The Tang Dynasty, the Turks, and Goryeo are not what we should worry about right now. Li Shimin might not even be able to sleep well now."

"Master, what about Fu Junqiang and Fu Junyu? Should we tell them that Fu Cailin is here?"

"Don't say anything yet. Let's wait a few days and see what happens."

"Yes, Master!"

now,

In a courtyard in Luoyang,

Some Turkic masters and some Goryeo masters were guarding outside a room.
