Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

After Chang Lin left, Li Shimin also stood up and spoke.

"Then let's go to the Tai Chi Hall." Although the area of ​​the Liangyi Hall is sufficient, since it is a formal meeting, it must be replaced by a formal place.

When everyone came out of Liangyi Hall, Li Shimin looked at Li Ke and asked, "How do you decide to deal with the Tubo matter?"

"How to deal with it? What does this have to do with our Tang Dynasty? It is the Tubo herdsmen who rebelled, and these Tubo herdsmen sincerely want to join our Tang Dynasty after the rebellion and become the people of our Datang. These are two different things." Li Ke shook his head and said.

Li Ke's words made many ministers beside him a little helpless. The eyes of the generals who rushed over were all bright, but these civil servants were somewhat entangled.

Wei Zheng couldn't hold back and said: "Your Highness, isn't this a bit too shameless, we are a kingdom of heaven, and Tubo is my country of the Tang Dynasty, if this is the case, won't everyone in our country of the Tang Dynasty be in danger in the future? Is it even possible that there will be a situation where groups will attack?"

"Hey, hey, Zheng Guogong, what you said, we hope that everyone will be in danger. If they are in danger, then our Tang cavalry will take down all these places!" Cheng Yaojin said immediately yelled.

Wei Zheng felt a little helpless, you soldiers naturally hope to fight.

He was too lazy to argue with Cheng Yaojin, but waited for Li Ke's answer.

Li Ke smiled, "Let's talk about this at the meeting later."

In less than half an hour, all members of the military department currently in Chang'an City rushed to the Hall of Taiji, except for the historian who was in charge of recording, the leaders of the three provinces, Changsun Wuji, Wei Zheng, and Fang Xuanling, and everything else Heads of the military department and members of the military department.

They are Li Jing, Li Xiaogong, Yu Chigong, Duan Zhixuan, Liu Hongji, Chai Shao, Zhang Liang, Hou Junji, Cheng Yaojin, Huo Gang, and then Li Shimin and Li Ke.

Chang Lin first read the content of the [-]-mile rush and the information from the intelligence department to everyone.

After Chang Lin finished reading, almost all the generals looked at Huo Gang immediately.

They all know the specific system of the eight hundred miles of the imperial court. They will send people to start sending information to Chang'an as soon as they know the matter. At the same time, the local officials in charge have the right to make any treatment that is beneficial to Datang. .

That is to say, the urgent news from the eight hundred miles must be the first time to send back the news, but the news from the intelligence department is not much slower than the urgent news from the eight hundred miles. More importantly, the news from the intelligence department is more detailed, that is to say, Have all the spies from the intelligence department penetrated into the interior of Tubo?

This...how long has the Ministry of Intelligence been established?

They were all the main generals before the Tang Dynasty, so they knew very well that there must not have been such an efficient intelligence department before the Tang Dynasty. If there was, they would have obtained the information in the first few battles.

"Everyone has watched it, how do you feel now?" Li Shimin knocked on the table and asked.

The military meeting is different from the court hall. Everyone sits around a table, including Li Shimin.

"This...is a little unbelievable." Zhang Liang, who came over later, couldn't help but said.

"Who says it's not? Isn't this... just bloodless?" Liu Hongji also nodded and said.

"This must be His Highness's early arrangement. Otherwise, even if these serfs rebelled, they would just replace some nobles. How could they want to join our Tang Dynasty?" Cheng Yaojin said.

"It is true that I arranged for some people to go in. In fact, the task of arranging them is also very simple. It is to let them tell the serfs in Tubo, what should a normal life be like? They are not born serfs, they should If you have your own land, you should live your own life." Li Ke nodded and said.

Everyone was a little speechless. Li Ke's words seemed to be an understatement, but this matter is not that simple. Everyone knows that ordinary people are very ignorant, have no education, have no education, you tell them What can they understand?If these people are so easy to agitate, Datang will not be so easy to rule.

What's more, how do you ensure that those who have gained power will give up their chance to become nobles and choose to integrate into the Tang Dynasty?

A few seemingly simple words, but there are too many meanings represented in it.

"Let's not talk about this today. Now things have happened. The Governor of Xizhou Governor's Mansion has sent [-] elite cavalry to Yadong Zhankou. That is to say, in theory, the entire Tubo has been under the management of my Tang Dynasty. .” Li Ke said.

"Your Highness, it's the same question I asked before. Is it inappropriate to do so? Will it put many of our subjects in danger, such as Xue Yantuo, Shiwei, Khitan and other ministries in the north." Wei Zheng will just The question was asked again.

"There's nothing wrong with it. I didn't answer you just now, but what I want to say now, I know that many of you have such thoughts, but I tell you that such thoughts will be discarded in the future."

"We are not a kingdom of heaven, nor the center of the world. Although Datang is very powerful, there may be countries in this world that are stronger than Datang." Li Ke said with a serious face.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, is there a country stronger than Datang?

"Your Highness is talking about Persia, Arabia, and Rome?" Chai Shao asked curiously.

Because of Li Ke, almost all the generals in the Tang Dynasty have seen the maps compiled by Li Ke, and the names of these countries are naturally according to the names Li Ke said.

"No." Li Ke shook his head lightly and said.

"It can only be said that Persia, Arabia, and Rome are the most powerful countries we can come into contact with, but in fact! This world is very big! And if our Tang Dynasty is arrogant and self-styled, how can we become an empire on which the sun never sets?" Li Ke looked at them and said.

Li Ke beckoned, and Chang Lin over there immediately opened the map.

This map is familiar to everyone, so it is not surprising.

Li Ke stood up and walked to the side of the map, pointing to several countries on the map and said: "According to the calculations of the Taishi Bureau, the planet under our feet is very large, and the straight-line distance from us to the westernmost edge of this continent is about two kilometers." Thousands of miles! And within the distance of [-] miles, there are several powerful countries!"

"And on this continent, the oldest country with historical records can last up to 4000 years ago!" Li Ke pointed to the location of the later Egypt.

Everyone was a little surprised.

"But the area of ​​this continent is very vast, because it borders our continent with only such a small piece, no one knows if there will be a more powerful country in the depths of the continent! What if they threaten our Great Tang ?!" Li Ke said, pointing to the Africa of later generations.
