Chapter 209: The Colonial Governor and Lord Zhongtang

"Your Majesty, how to balance Tibet, the minister's suggestion is to take the initiative to send troops to deter, after a big victory, if Tibet proposes peace, we will push the boat down the river, if Tubo does not want to negotiate peace, then we will fight until he wants to negotiate peace."

After Li Shaoyou stood up, he quickly said his suggestion.

"Li Shaoyou, don't be a fool, how much do you know about the military strength and armaments of both sides, how can you conclude that my Da Zhou will definitely win?"

Guo Zongxun's brows furrowed slightly, this Li Shaoyou still seems to be too young, he is thinking about taking the initiative to attack Tubo when he sees that the army of the Great Zhou has won several battles in a row?

"Your Majesty, this is a superficial analysis of the military strength and armament of Tibet, please take a look at it."

Li Shaoyou took out a thick stack of paper from his arms, held it in his hand, and offered it respectfully.

Li Tongjie stepped forward, took it, held it with both hands, and put it on Guo Zongxun's desk.

"I don't look at it first, let's discuss it with the three phases, the military department, and the household department, the Great Zhou has been fighting for a year, and now Marshal Zhao is leading the army to continue the southern expedition in the south of the Yangtze River, the money and food that needs to be spent on the imperial court side is huge, and it should be cautious to take the initiative to attack Tubo."

"The ministers obey."

In fact, according to Guo Zongxun's temperament, Li Shaoyou's suggestion was very much in line with his mind, but why didn't he read the report sent by Li Shaoyou?

That's because the long-dormant sexagenary branch system has been activated again, and Guo Zongxun is in a hurry to go to the lottery.

"Ding...... The sexagenary system was activated, because the emperor launched the construction plan of Greater Shanghai, therefore, the system gave a lottery opportunity. ”

Guo Zongxun wanted to see who could be drawn this time, and then decide on a strategy to check and balance Tibet.

Attacking Tibet, even if it is just to provoke a war and not penetrate deep into the territory of Tibet, seems to have never been done before.

Tibet is sparsely populated, has a harsh climate, is located on a plateau, and the air is thin, not to mention the place where the altitude is four or five thousand? Is it more than two thousand above sea level, for people who live in the plains? It's all a challenge.

Dropped everyone? Ordering Wei Zhongxian to guard at the door of the imperial study, Guo Zongxun entered the secret room alone.

After entering the system space? I saw the familiar yin and yang fish heaven and earth branch big roulette again.

"System, do you want to turn it yourself? It's all a stroke of luck anyway. ”

The golden handle of the spoon starts turning? The black and white yin-yang fish is also turning? Guo Zongxun just watched silently, he didn't seem to have heard of any famous generals in the history of attacking Tubo, right?

Or am I lonely? Yes, but I don't know.

However, the system is to reward me for starting to build Greater Shanghai? Just a chance to draw a lottery? I'm afraid it won't be a general.

The golden spoon stopped turning, and so did the yin-yang fish.

The handle of the spoon pointed at the area of the Tiangan A and the Earthly Branch, but this yin and yang fish ...... There are some things that Guo Zongxun can't understand.

The black and white dividing line of the yin and yang fish actually coincides with the direction pointed by the spoon handle.

Is this out of the heavenly stem or out of the earth's ugly cow brand?

The result was that Guo Zongxun was overjoyed? With a double shot, the area of the Tiangan Jiazi and the Earthly Branch Ugly Ox was raised at the same time.

On the small token made of the Tiangan A number? It is written: Ma He, Ma Sanbao.

On the small token made of the ugly ox of the earth branch, it is written: Li Hongzhang, Li Jianfu.

Yes, his character exploded, and he recruited two at once, Zheng He, a famous eunuch of Sanbao, and Li Hongzhang, a famous minister of the late Qing Dynasty.

Zheng He, formerly known as Ma He, nicknamed Sanbao, was captured and castrated by Lan Yu's soldiers and sent as a eunuch to Zhu Di's mansion when he was only the king of Yan, and later Zhu Di gave him the surname Zheng, which is called Zheng He.

I just don't know if this recall is an ordinary person named Ma He, or a eunuch named Zheng He?

Anyway, this must be a top talent that can be used to develop shipbuilding and navigation.

The ships of the Great Zhou, conquer the seas, colonize the world, and start planning the blueprint.

Li Hongzhang, the famous Li Zhongtang, the proud protégé of Zeng Guofan, the mainstay of the late Qing court, of course, was also scolded as the biggest traitor in history.

Whether Li Hongzhang is a traitor or not, Guo Zongxun doesn't want to comment, this thing is a benevolent and a wise person, and Guo Zongxun values ability.

The Westernization Movement was carried out by Li Hongzhang, and this aspect allowed him to have a good exchange with Xu Guangqi.

It's just that there doesn't seem to be much to learn from at the moment.

Although the scenery of the Tang Dynasty is not there, the outside world, according to Guo Zongxun's understanding of history, at this time, in the middle of the ninth century AD, I am afraid that the Roman Empire is in the darkest period.

This period has historically been considered the darkest period in Europe.

The collapse of the Roman Empire was caused by the invasion and settlement of barbarians, which almost led to the complete destruction of European culture at that time.

It was in this context that the feudal system in Western Europe arose and developed from the ruins of the fall of Rome by the fusion of Germanic, Roman and Christian elements.

The knighthood system also arose in Europe in the Middle Ages, and was a feudal vassal system gradually produced and established in the process of feudalization in Europe.

To be precise, the European states of the tenth century were a loose ensemble of lords.

Regardless of whether there is foreign affairs to learn or not, Li Hongzhang's ability is not only to engage in foreign affairs, but also to engage in internal affairs without engaging in foreign affairs.

Moreover, in terms of diplomacy, Li Hongzhang is also unambiguous, although Li Hongzhang signed several treaties on behalf of the Qing Dynasty to lose power and humiliate the country, isn't this that history has not yet reached that point.

My Great Zhou can only make other countries lose their power and humiliate the country, and I can only let them sign an unequal treaty with my Great Zhou to cede land and pay compensation or even return to the land and surrender.

It seems that these things can be handed over to Li Hongzhang in the future.

Guo Zongxun retreated from the system space in a hurry, walked out of the secret room, and immediately called Wei Zhongxian and Li Tongjie.

"You two, check with me, if there is a eunuch named Zheng He in the palace, if so, bring it to me immediately, by the way, maybe it is called Ma He, whether it is Ma He or Zheng He, as long as it is called the Three Treasures of the Sho, it is right."

Most of the eunuchs in the palace are under the control of Li Tongjie, and Wei Zhongxian is actually mainly responsible for the affairs of Jinyiwei.

"The old slave obeys the order, and the old slave will go to check."

"Wei Banban, then you go to the Ministry of Officials to check if there is an official named Li Hongzhang Li Jianfu, if you are in Kaifeng, let him come to see me immediately, if not in Kaifeng, then let the Ministry immediately recall Li Hongzhang to me back to Kaifeng,"

"The minions obey."

As a result, Guo Zongxun was a little disappointed, there was no one named Ma He or Zheng He in the palace, and there was no one named Li Hongzhang among the officials of the Great Zhou.

Guo Zongxun held two small tokens in his hands, a little melancholy, where to find my colonial governor and Lord Zhongtang?
