Chapter 104: The war reaches a stalemate, a suggestion from Fang Xuanling

The 300,000-strong Great Tang army, after enduring countless hardships, had not been able to advance even half a step, and had not even touched a hair of the Great Qin army.

Li Er was so angry that he flew into a rage in the command tent all day long.

He had fought wars his entire life and prided himself on having the world's best military ability, yet he had never expected to be thwarted by a teenager!

Shameful!

Truly shameful!

This day.

Li Er, in the command tent, was discussing the next steps with a group of military generals, including Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde.

Everyone looked at the war sand table in front of them, all remaining silent.

This war...

Is truly hard to fight!

"Speak up, all of you!"

"You are all the world's top-tier warriors. Now the enemy bullies our Great Tang too much; to fight such consecutive battles and yet achieve nothing is truly shameful." Li Er, seeing that no one intended to speak, deliberately tried to provoke them.

"Your Majesty, in this humble general's opinion, this war cannot possibly end in just a few days; we should prepare for a protracted struggle."

"A protracted struggle? Easy to say, but we have come from afar, are ill-prepared, and if the provisions from the rear are insufficient, how can we sustain a protracted struggle?"

"Well said! Our Great Tang's true enemy now is not Tibet, but the Turks in the north!"

"Indeed!"

Before long, the various generals seemed to have reached a unified front.

This war cannot be fought!

To continue fighting would still be futile, with no gains.

But if they don't fight, Qin Mu has mocked Great Tang, abducted the Empress and Princess, and faked the Tibetan situation—which of these is not a provocation to Great Tang's authority?

Just let it go?

Impossible!

Now they are truly in a dilemma.

A dead end!

This is a truly genuine dead end! ===== CHAPTER 106 =====
