Just like a sentence from later generations, it is what history chose, not who chose history. Even if there is no Songzan Garland, perhaps Songzan wet cloth will be able to complete this.

Songtsen Gampo's role in the aggregation of Tubo is more like a catalyst.

"This... is not difficult to understand." Fei Qian continued, "As far as we know, as described by these people who have learned, is this snowy area...is it somewhat similar to our ancient times? The vast land, the scattered tribes... And now, look, there are agreed systems, and wars between tribes... Some people began to call themselves a certain king, some people began to want to unify the snowy area... Is it very similar? And what is behind these behaviors, or phenomena?"

"It is agriculture, industry, people's livelihood, military, and all the developments that drive these people to change." Fei Qian continued, "Only people have surplus, they will think about walking and communicating, commodity sales, and corresponding struggles will arise... Everyone has selfish intentions, so who can listen to? The law is born... and so on. From the descriptions of these people who have learned the scriptures, I estimate that the snow area should be in this excessive period, a bit like our Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States Period..."

After Fei Qian said this, everyone nodded.

This is easy to understand.

Before the Sui and Tang Dynasties in my country, people did not know much about the political situation on the cold Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. This was caused by inconvenience of transportation and was related to the fact that the Qinghai-Tibet region did not form a relatively powerful unified regime at that time. From the 6th century AD, the Yalong tribe located in the eastern part of the Yarlung Zangbo River Basin gradually became stronger and its power expanded to the Lhasa River Basin. By the beginning of the 7th century, after Songtsen Gampo ascended the throne, he first conquered various tribes by force and formally established the Tubo Dynasty.

Although there are no clear historical records in this entire process, it is not as magnificent as the unification of the six kingdoms of the Former Qin Dynasty, it is obvious that after the unification, Tubo began to expand from all directions under the leadership of Songtsen Gampo, making Nepal bow to the south, and Songtsen Gampo married the princess of Nepal, and Xiangtsen Gampo invaded the Tang Dynasty in the east.

After the first request for marriage was rejected by the Tang Dynasty, Songtsen Gampo sent troops to attack the Tang Dynasty. The two countries fought for a long time in the Songpan area and had a victory or defeat. After the Tang Dynasty knew that it was difficult to defeat Tubo quickly, it finally agreed to the request for marriage, which led to the story of Princess Wencheng entering Tibet.

"We China are pioneers..." Fei Qian smiled, but there was a kind of historical weight in his voice. "Look, now we just ran a few steps first, and then there were these people chasing us... If we stopped ourselves, what would happen? In fact, I have always been a little surprised. This thing actually happened in the time of King Zhou, and also in the early Han Dynasty. Why didn't we remember it? Or, no one planned it?"

"This is why I asked you all to come and let Gongda tell you about this." Fei Qian looked around for a week, "The lessons from the past should be the teacher of future generations. Then what we do today will become the experience of future generations in China. The people who seek the scriptures will soon arrive in Chang'an, and what should we do... The people who seek the scriptures, haha, they are the people who seek the scriptures, so why are we... not?"
