After the opening of the Quanzhou and Sumatra Trading Road, long-distance merchant ships have obtained navigation practice.

Some problems will inevitably arise, but due to the short navigation route, there is no risk of any problems.

Li Yuanai also set special rules, and crew members who find loopholes will be rewarded regardless of their status.

Under this heavy reward, the hidden dangers of navigation were eliminated one by one.

Faced with vested interests, whether it is the intervening merchants, or the carefully selected captains and crew members, they are full of confidence in their first Western sailing.

However, unlike Zheng He's voyage to the West in the Ming Dynasty, the voyage to the West in the Ming Dynasty had a strong political atmosphere. Every time they traveled, they were mobilized. On a voyage, there were 868 officials alone and 26,800 guards, which added up to scattered, starting from 30,000.

With this lineup, it is okay to destroy the country. If this army is pressing in front of you, who dares not accept it?

Li Yuanai didn't have this idea.

At that time of the Ming Dynasty, because the Northern Yuan Dynasty was strong enemies, they were unable to control the Western Regions, so they needed to sail to the West and Southeast Asia to show their muscles to determine their international status.

The Tang Dynasty was different. Li Shimin had already conquered the Western Regions. Western Persia, Dashi, Byzantine and other countries all admired the Tang Dynasty culture and had close contacts with the Tang Dynasty. They had an international status that was unprecedented and modern.

Maritime trade is mutually beneficial, and there will be no big problem in signing an agreement. There is no need to send a navy to show off his muscles and make a foundation better.

Taking this opportunity, Li Yuanai opened a sea route from Quanzhou to Yangzhou, from Quanzhou to Hangzhou, from Quanzhou to Yangzhou.

And we further planned to open a route from Quanzhou to Japan, Baekje and Silla to help the Tang Dynasty dominate the Pacific.

Sure enough, in just half a year, the Tang Dynasty had signed trade contracts with Western coastal countries.

The Sassanid Dynasty, Byzantine, Dashi, Tianzhu and other countries were obliged to protect the safety of the Datang merchant ships, and their merchant ships would also be blessed by the Datang navy.

The efficiency of signing this trade contract once again exceeded Li Yuanai's imagination.

This is why Li Yuanai can only praise him: "Wang Xuance criticized him!"

It turns out that history has not changed too much due to the appearance of Li Yuanai.

Nafudi Aronashun sent troops to attack Wang Xuance's envoys.

Wang Xuance and his delegation had only thirty people. They represented the Tang Dynasty in traveling to the West and deepened their feelings with other countries, and received some gifts and tributes.

Where can withstand the attacks of a country's army?

Wang Xuance decisively ordered to overturn all tributes and lead his men to flee.

The gifts given by the countries in the Western Regions are of great value. Looking at the treasures scattered on the ground, the Indian soldiers who had never seen the world could not stand the temptation and snatched them wildly.

Wang Xuance led everyone to escape by chance. Deputy envoy Jiang Shiren was furious and immediately proposed to withdraw the Western Regions, report the matter to Li Shimin and Li Zhi to send troops to fight.

Their travel messengers represented Li Shimin, who was the face of the Tang Dynasty.

This attack on the envoy is equivalent to declaring war in the Tang Dynasty.

As for the arrogance of the Tang Dynasty, I must be unable to bear it.

Wang Xuance was an alien, and did not play according to common sense, so he asked Jiang Shiren to return to the Western Regions with a shocked mission, and went to Nibora to borrow troops himself.

The Nibura Kingdom was nominally a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty. It borrowed seven thousand cavalry under Wang Xuance's tongue, and then borrowed eight thousand soldiers from Tubo.

Wang Xuance took these 5,000 troops and directly attacked Zhongtianzhu, and directly destroyed Zhongtianzhu by defeating Fudi Arona. Not only that, he also killed all the captured Zhongtianzhu soldiers.

The Fudi Arona fled to East Tianzhu in a panic, and the king of East Tianzhu wanted to say goodbye.

Wang Xuance directly brought his troops to attack Dongtianzhu again, and destroyed Dongtianzhu in one fell swoop, capturing and killing the corpse.

Then Fudi Arona fled to Southern Heaven again.

The King of Southern Heavenly Kingdom tied up Fudi Arona the moment he entered the country and captured him in front of Wang Xuance to apologize.

As for why he apologized, the King of Southern India didn't know. He was afraid anyway, so he just knelt down and got done.

Originally, the history of India was a humiliating history, and it was not a single time to kneel down.

Already used to it.

Wang Xuance invited the remaining kings of North and West Tianzhu to the army and cut off Fudi Arona's head in front of them to commend him.

This incident in India was soon learned about the Sassanid Dynasty, Byzantium, Dashi, and other countries, and they all seemed to listen to the heavenly books.

It is well known to all the weak in the country of India, but no matter how weak it is, it is a country with a vast territory and a long history. So, a Tang Dynasty envoy was destroyed by borrowing troops alone?

One person was dispatched in the Tang Dynasty?

One person destroys two countries?

Not a general who fights, but a scholar who works in civil service?

I dare not write mythological stories like this.

Originally, the Tang Dynasty was so powerful that it had penetrated into the hearts of the people of Western countries. Now, Wang Xuance made such a fuss, which directly pushed the reputation of the Tang Dynasty to its peak.

Taking this opportunity, the imperial court sent envoys to express his intention to trade, and all the countries in the Western Regions naturally followed.

Li Yuanai was excited when he heard it. He had known that Wang Xuance had such a feat. He still excited him so much when he heard it.

only?

Li Yuanai always felt that Wang Xuance's exaggerated deeds were a little different from those in history.

Could it be that the record is incorrect?

But he didn't know that there was a small difference, which was closely related to his existence.

In history, Wang Xuance borrowed troops from Nipola and Tubo.

Nipola borrowed 7,000 soldiers, while Tubo, as the hero of the plateau, only symbolically received 1,200 soldiers.

Songtsen Gampo was brave and resourceful, and he was naturally a hero of the Tubo, but with the Tang Dynasty, he was just a jealous wolf.

Li Shimin failed to attack Goguryeo, and because of his qi disease, he became infected with a disease in his bed, and his influence decreased slightly.

Therefore, Songtsen Gampo only symbolically received 1,200 soldiers.

The Tang Dynasty is different today. Because of the emergence of Li Yuanai, the destruction of Goguryeo, the unblocking of the canal, and the connection between the north and the south, everything is very different. Although Li Shimin is also sick, the influence of the Tang Dynasty has not weakened at all.

Songtsen Gampo did not dare to be contempt at all, so he borrowed eight thousand elite soldiers at one time.

Wang Xuance is both civil and military, and the result is naturally very different from that of holding 8,000 soldiers in his hand.

Just when Li Yuanai arranged the first batch of merchant ships to trade with the Sassanid Dynasty, Byzantium, Dashi, and Tianzhu, he received an urgent letter to Chang'an.

It was written by Li Zhi himself, and the edges were carefully sealed with ink, and there was Li Zhi's private seal.

Li Yuanai felt an unknown premonition in his heart, and Li Zhi actually used his private seal.

Tear the ink paste and Li Yuanai took out the letters inside.

The letter was short, with only a few words, but it made him feel like a bolt from the blue.
