Valley Emperor

The Tang Empire tried to expand by non-war means very early. In the early days, it purchased some coastal colonies on the west coast of Africa from the Portuguese, and purchased embassy areas from various European countries.

But at the time, it was all a little mess.

Until the Empire purchased all of their American colonies from the United Kingdom of Spain and Portugal, and completely controlled the entire Americas in the hands of the Empire, this was an important harvest of non-war expansion.

Later, they reached a resource exchange territorial agreement with the Tatars' Tang Jinguo, in order to support the Tatars' weapons and ammunition, and conduct business with the Tatars. They exchanged large tracts of territory, and also relocated people away, directly handing over unmanned land to Datang.

This is the pinnacle of the Tang Empire's non-war expansion policy!

Just relying on the absolutely powerful national strength of the Tang Dynasty, he has obtained such a big benefit from the Tatars, and the Tatars feel that they are not at a loss!

This made the upper echelons of the empire more interested in non-war expansion.

After all, over the years, the empire has acquired a large area of ​​South America, Mexico, Eastern Europe and other regions, at most it has spent some money, and even this money, in fact, most of it has been returned to the empire, and the empire has only paid some low-end of muskets and other munitions.

This expenditure is much less than the war cost, or even worth mentioning.

The third west expedition shouted out by the army has been shouting for many years, but whether it is the other upper echelons of the empire or the holy emperor Li Xuan, they have been coaxing and deceiving the army all the time.

why? Because because it costs too much, it will cost hundreds of millions of military expenses at every turn.

Even the Great Tang Empire, which is a big business, cannot say that it has spent so much military spending just for overseas expansion.

How about hundreds of millions of Tang Yuan's real gold and silver, just to fight a native to seize some land?

Datang people are not happy!

The current Datang people are more willing to use indirect and low-cost ways to expand, such as giving the Tatars guns and weapons, and conducting business cooperation with the Tatars to support the Tatars to fight the Ottomans, and wait for the Tatars to lay down the Ottomans. After the people, let the Tatars turn these lands into no man's land and hand them over to the empire.

After doing so, it doesn't cost a lot of money, and it's convenient and hassle-free.

To put it bluntly, it is to raise a thug to help you expand!

And I have to say that the Tatars have always been the outstanding thugs of the Datang Empire in the past few decades, but the Datang Empire did not give a dime in the past few decades, and only used military oppression to help the Tatars fight for themselves. site.

As for now, the people of the Tang Dynasty are too lazy to engage in military oppression, and directly give guns and guns...

From these changes, it can also be seen that the empire's national strength has grown tremendously in recent decades!

The current Datang Empire doesn't even need military oppression. With just a few muskets and ammunition supplies, trade contracts, and the promise of a safe place in the future, the Tartars are willing to be the forerunners of the Tang Dynasty.

But if it were 30 years ago or even a dozen years ago, the Tang Empire would not expect the Tatars to agree so obediently.

In the early years, although the Tatars were forced to flee west by the Tang Dynasty and then launched a westward expedition, the Tatars never gave in. In the northwest, Central Asia and even Eastern Europe, the Tatars and the empire continued to fight. ten years.

The huge cavalry troops of the Tatars can still create a lot of threats to the Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, although the Tatars in that period could not defeat the Tang Empire as a whole, they still mainly focused on armed confrontation on the Eastern Front.

But starting more than ten years ago, the empire and the Tatars basically stopped fighting, because the empire was unwilling to spend money to continue the westward expedition, and the Tatars also felt hopeless to counterattack.

As for the forty years after Xuanping, the Tatars have completely given up treatment.

At that time, although the Tatars still stationed a lot of troops on the eastern front, the Tatar troops on the eastern front were all recruits,

Even the Imperial Army can see that the Tatars regard the Eastern Front as a boot camp. What they do on weekdays is training, mainly blocking the border. As for the war with the Tang people, it is not their task at all.

After these recruits have been trained for a period of time, they will be dispatched to the western or southern fronts to fight.

To a certain extent, since the forty years of Xuanping, the eastern front of the Tang Dynasty and the Golden Kingdom has been undefended!

Why is this happening?

Because the Tang Dynasty and the Tatars have a good relationship and do not defend each other? It certainly isn't.

There is only one reason, that is, the Tang Dynasty is getting stronger and stronger, and in the end it is so strong that the Tatars have no courage to resist!

This is the only reason why the Tatars completely abandoned the Eastern Front and regarded it as a new barracks.

It is also the only reason why the Tatars cooperated with Datang and were willing to fight the Ottomans for the predecessors of Datang.

The Tang Dynasty is so powerful that the Tatars do not even have the courage to look up!

Looking at the expansion of the empire in the early, middle and later periods, we will find a very obvious feature, that is, as the national strength of the empire rises, the external expansion becomes easier and easier, and the resistance of the indigenous people becomes weaker and weaker. Even now there is no resistance at all.

Today, the only things that limit the expansion of the empire are the climate environment and localization.

In the expansion of the European region, there is no problem with the climate and environment. In fact, the climate environment in most parts of Europe is still very good. Although it is said that the Nordic region is a bit bitter and cold, the central and southern regions are the southern regions of Europe close to the Mediterranean Sea. , but it is a very good place.

People from the Tang Dynasty who have been to Europe, especially those who have been to the Mediterranean region, prefer the Mediterranean coast, the climate is quite pleasant, and some areas are also very fertile.

Generally speaking, purely from the perspective of climate and environment, Datang people's attitude towards Europe is somewhat similar to that of North America, and they all think this is a good place.

Expansion to Europe has become a fixed destination. Eastern Europe is just the beginning, and the next step will be Poland, Lithuania, and parts of Romania.

This is the second part of the transferred territories in the agreement between the Datang Empire and the Datang Jinguo. In order to obtain these territories, the Datang Empire has already promised to provide the Tatars with large quantities of military supplies and other common goods for free. materials, and signed some new commercial and trade agreements.

Calculated according to the export price of materials and ordinary business contracts~www.wuxiaspot.com~ These free supplies and subsequent business contracts are worth at least 30 million Tang yuan.

Of course, this is only the export value. If the actual cost is concerned, these things will only be a few million Tang Yuan if they die!

Of course, these words alone are not enough to make the Tatars give up such a large and fertile territory.

The main content of the transaction between the two parties has never been these, but a promise of the Tang people: to give the Tatars a place to live!

A place to live, this is what the Tartars are striving for!

For this reason, they would rather exchange large tracts of seemingly fertile European territory, because they know very well that if they do not exchange, they will certainly not be able to keep these lands in the end.

And it will also destroy the entire Tang Dynasty and Jin Kingdom. Millions of Tatar natives will disappear without a trace, just like many indigenous countries that have been destroyed and disappeared.
