Chapter 576
And after this matter, the worst result for Northern Song was to become a vassal state of Great Tang.
In the future, when the Nine Provinces' catastrophe arrives, relying only on Northern Song's own (dacb) strength, it would absolutely not be able to withstand the arrival of the catastrophe.
As long as there was cooperation with Great Tang, then Northern Song might be able to rely on Great Tang, whose national strength was rising, and perhaps avoid the catastrophe.
Besides, if he didn't agree to Great Tang's request, Northern Song would be destroyed; Huang Shang understood the principle of abandoning the chariot to save the commander.
"I can represent Northern Song and agree to the Tang Emperor's request."
"It's just that, after the Nine Provinces' catastrophe arrives in the future, Huang Shang hopes that the Great Tang ruler can look at the cooperation between Northern Song and Great Tang today and take care of Northern Song a little."
After hearing Huang Shang's words, Li Shimin laughed happily.
"That is natural; Northern Song and Great Tang will inevitably become eternal friends!"
Li Shimin said to Huang Shang very happily, and then he looked at Yuan Tiangang.
Subsequently, Li Shimin and Yuan Tiangang finalized the strategy for Huang Shang and Northern Song afterward.
In fact, it could be said that Huang Shang's coming this time was directly falling into Great Tang's trap.
But this was an open conspiracy; Huang Shang could only watch the trap and jump in directly.
Otherwise, all he could see would be the destruction of Northern Song.
The reason Li Shimin wanted Yuan Tiangang to enter the game directly and lead troops with Huang Shang to support Northern Song.
Instead of letting Li Chunfeng go, it was precisely because when Yuan Tiangang went to find the Seven Martial Arts and Wuming and others before, Wuming, representing the Seven Martial Arts, politely declined Yuan Tiangang's intention to win them over.
Wuming and the Seven Martial Arts were also afraid that when the catastrophe arrived in the future, if they were tied to Great Tang's war chariot, they were afraid they would be involved in the catastrophe too early.
Judging from their current strength, once they entered the catastrophe, they might directly become cannon fodder.
After the previous Battle of the Divine Dragon, the Seven Martial Arts and Wuming had deeply known the weakness of their own cultivation.
So now, having experienced the strength of a high realm and seeing the path of martial arts ahead, the Seven Martial Arts and Wuming only wanted to practice hard quietly and then face the catastrophe with the strongest posture.
As for whether they could survive this catastrophe, it could only depend on Heaven's will; they didn't want to cause extra trouble now.
After Yuan Tiangang knew the meaning of Wuming and the Seven Martial Arts, he didn't make things difficult for them; after all, in the last battle, the Seven Martial Arts and Wuming had already received Great Tang's kindness; even if they couldn't ally, Yuan Tiangang would not personally destroy this favor.
Therefore, after learning that the Seven Martial Arts and others were unwilling to join Great Tang, Yuan Tiangang returned to Great Tang and told Li Shimin that the Seven Martial Arts and Wuming were currently unwilling to join Great Tang.
Li Shimin also had no intention of forcing the Seven Martial Arts and others, so he put this matter aside first.
It was not until Li Chunfeng had set up a peerless array in the entire Great Tang and returned to Chang'an that Li Shimin's thoughts about the Seven Martial Arts and Wuming and others became active again.
After all, Li Chunfeng was the one who truly had kindness to the Seven Martial Arts and Wuming and others, so Li Shimin sent Li Chunfeng to find the Seven Martial Arts and Wuming again.
After all, Li Shimin still liked the potential of the Seven Martial Arts and Wuming very much.
So now, the only one left in Great Tang was Yuan Tiangang.
And Yuan Tiangang was generally more ruthless in handling affairs than Li Chunfeng; compared to going to Northern Song to seize national fortune and land, Yuan Tiangang was more suitable than Li Chunfeng.
That was why Li Shimin sent Yuan Tiangang to Northern Song to help Great Tang collect national fortune!
Up to this point, Great Tang actively entered the vortex of chaos!.
