Chapter 11 Chapter 10 Pointing the Country (Part 2)

"As for Nanzhao!"

Pei Min smiled and said, "It should be threatened by Tubo, so I asked us for help!"

Li Longji followed the "haha" and said, "Let Jingyuan make the decision. Now that the six edicts have passed, the five edicts have surrendered to Tubo. Only Nanzhao Taideng County Prince Geluofeng has always been loyal to our Tang Dynasty and refused to win over all kinds of Tubo. Now Tubo and our Tang Dynasty have re-established a alliance with each other. Regardless of whether they are sincere or not, there will be no war between the two countries in the short term. How can Tubo be the master of peace? Recently, it has been a huge momentum in southern Xinjiang and has the intention to annex southern Xinjiang. The five edicts, who were originally undecided, directly chose Tubo, and Nanzhao is hard to support it!"

Pei Min was a little surprised when she heard this and asked, "Tubo intends to invade the south? What is the news coming from Jiannan?"

Li Longji shook his head and said, "It was the envoy sent by Geluofeng. The envoy said that Geluofeng originally planned to come to congratulate him in person, but he was threatened by Tubo and could not get rid of himself. Let me understand!"

Pei Min thought for a moment and smiled suddenly: "For Geluofeng's posture, even if there are ghosts, we cannot neglect him. We should give the most solemn support. Let the world know that as long as we are loyal to our Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty will never treat them unfairly..."

Li Longji looked at Pei Min with some surprise, heard the subtle voice of his words, and said, "Jingyuan thinks this matter is fake?"

Pei Min shook his head and said, "I don't know whether there is any falsehood or not. I don't know much about southern Xinjiang and have no say. However, I can say proudly about Tubo. Apart from the late Guo Xiang, there are really few people who can compare to this court!"

He not only had an in-depth understanding of Tubo West, but also analyzed and judged according to the historical memory and development trends in his mind.

Although history has changed over the years, many processes, the overall situation of the country, and the personalities of historical figures, are unlikely to change drastically.

With the improvement of his own foresight, Pei Min was able to analyze many things that ordinary people could not analyze.

For example, the trends of Tubo, facing the situation where the Tang army pointed at Qinghai Lake, Tubo did not dare to make trouble in Qinghai Lake.

According to Pei Min's view, turning to the Western Regions and starting from the Big and Big Boluo is the best choice...

As for struggling to the south, Pei Min thought it was unlikely.

Liuzhao is located near Cangshan and Erhai Lake on the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau. The ancient Cangshan and Erhai Lake were not Yunnan in Dali and later generations, and it was a barren land with poor mountains and bad waters.

Perhaps after the hard work of the people of Liuzhao, the situation has improved greatly and the harsh environment cannot be changed.

After several years of peaceful development, Tubo has emerged from the shadow of defeat. However, if we want to raise another military force, the goal has no certain value and significance. With the character of the Tubo old woman, it is obviously not possible to do it.

Among the six imperial edicts, five imperial edicts surrendered to Tubo, and only the Nanzhao was the Nanzhao, which was a labor force to mobilize many troops?

Nothing makes sense!

Pei Min asked curiously: "In the past, Zhuge Liang fought against the Southern Barbarians to stabilize the Great Rear! What was the Tubo campaign in the southern expedition? He also wanted a stable Great Rear? Or the size of mountains, forests and land in Nanzhao?"

Li Longji himself didn't believe this and said seriously: "It's impossible! The geographical location of Nanzhao is close to our Tang Dynasty and is not connected to Tubo. If Nanzhao wants to threaten Tubo, it must go through the territory of several other Zhaos. They all surrendered to Tubo. Even if Nanzhao has the will, he is still powerless. What does Nanzhao want?"

Pei Min smiled and said, "I guess this Nanzhao Pavilion is very ambitious. He is determined to unify the Liuzhao, wanting to get our support and become the Lord of the Liuzhao. He deliberately exaggerates the facts to seek our assistance!"

Li Longji frowned slightly and sighed: "I'm afraid that's it. In the Chinese language of Geluofeng's exchanges, the harm of the remaining five imperial edicts has been mentioned more than once, which means to eliminate the harm of our Tang Dynasty."

Speaking of this, his face was a little depressed. He had a good impression of the kindness and righteousness that Ge Luofeng showed, but he didn't expect that he had other plans.

Pei Min also knew that Li Longji, as a rare emperor who values ​​affection and values ​​human feelings, paid great attention to human feelings and advised: "When people contact, they naturally have true feelings. However, when the interaction between countries, interests are the priority, there is no such thing as affection."

Li Longji sighed: "With Jingyuan's view, what should Nanzhao do to deal with it?"

"This..." Pei Min pondered for a while. He liked to plan and then acted. His understanding of Nanzhao was not as clear as that of the Arabs, Byzantines and Tubo in the Western Regions. He said: "Bufan supports the unification of Nanzhao. Compared with the other five Zhaos, Nanzhao is indeed more reliable. The unification of Nanzhao can also save the worries of the south and create certain threats and troubles for Tubo. As for the future, I hope that Nanzhao can completely develop the land of Yunnan. If they really have the intention to rebel after they become strong, we can also accept their achievements."

In his heart, the land of Yunnan and Guizhou is undoubtedly the inherent territory of China.

It was taken over by the Tang Dynasty and invested too much effort to build the situation. It would be better to develop it by Nanzhao on its own and finally they would benefit the fisherman.

As for whether to raise a tiger, Pei Min didn't have this concern in his heart. The limitations of Nanzhao's development lies in it. At best, it's just a dog, and a wolf can't be considered a tiger, let alone a tiger?

Li Longji smiled and said, "I find that your mind is the most insidious..."

Pei Minquan regarded it as a compliment and continued: "As for Japan, Silla is mostly here to join in the fun and want to cheat us some benefits. We should treat them equally. If we want to learn the culture of the Tang Dynasty, we are welcome to be self-consistent. Only continuous progress is the foundation of a strong country. Being obsessed with little capital and working behind closed doors is not beautiful. However, the exchanges between countries must be based on interests. If others are rich, they will not be able to do it if they lose their own affairs. Japan produces a lot of gold and silver, and Silla produces a lot of iron. If you want to learn the culture of the Tang Dynasty, communicate in depth with the Tang Dynasty, and provide equivalent materials for exchange."

Li Longji nodded cautiously and exhaled a long sigh: "Listen to Jingyuan's words, the big stone in my heart has fallen. The countries such as the Great Food Kingdom, the Fuqi Kingdom, the Tuqishi, the Uighurs, the Gelulu, and the Nanzhao have more or less demands from our Tang Dynasty, so that this grand occasion can be achieved. Haha... I will still focus on my Tang Dynasty. Even so, the Tang Dynasty must show the host's spirit, so that all visiting countries can deeply realize the power of our Tang Dynasty."

Pei Min nodded and said yes, thinking about this rare event in his heart. It must be the opening of Longshan Road and Wushaoling Mountain Road that stimulated economic exchanges between the East and the West, forcing both sides to face each other's exchanges.

Because of its own appearance, the Tang Dynasty has already moved to the world first.
