"Open up a land route to Europe?"

When Battle heard this, the whole person was slightly stunned.

"Can't you?"

"You've also seen the map of the world, and it's possible to travel to Europe by land."

"Battle, this silk and porcelain are equivalent to gold in Europe, think about it, if you can open up such a route, then there will be a rolling mountain of gold and silver coming to you."

Liu Jin looked at Battle and said with a smile.

This steppe man is the best warrior, but if you want to talk about business, it is still the Persians, A~La~Bo~ people who are more powerful and have more brains.

In the history of the Silk Road, in fact, many times it was the Persians and A~La~Bo~ people who came to the Central Plains Dynasty to do business and bring out the good things of the Central Plains Dynasty.

As for the people of the Central Plains Dynasty, they still lack such a spirit.

This is related to many factors, one of the most important of which is that all dynasties have emphasized agriculture and suppressed commerce, which has greatly dealt a blow to the development of merchant power.

Persia is different from the Middle East, where merchants have a very high status, so merchants in these places will travel far and wide to earn wealth.

"But it's too far~"

Battle hurriedly asked people to turn out a world map, looked at Europe on it, and then looked at Daming's side, the distance between them was too far.

"It's not just far, I don't know how many countries are in between."

Hadan also shook his head and said.

"Actually, it's not necessarily impossible."

"From this Ural Mountains to the south and east, this large area is basically the domain of your Mongols, and the great Genghis Khan built an extremely large empire."

"This large area is your pasture, and although you are now divided, most of these areas are still under the control of your steppe people."

"You are grassland people, you have natural advantages, it shouldn't be difficult to get through."

Liu Jin said with a smile.

When it comes to Genghis Khan, Liu Jinna is also quite admired, close to the little population on the steppe, they almost knocked down the entire Eurasian continent.

The mighty Mongol Empire swept across all directions, and even if it was divided, their descendants still ruled many places, and even one of them entered Tianzhu and established the powerful Womor Empire.

Hearing Liu Jin's words, Battle, Hadan, and Huhe also straightened their chests slightly.

Well, well, that's right, we steppe people have indeed been ox-forked, or have been bull-forked since ancient times.

Of course, the heroes don't mention the courage of the year, but now, the golden family is no longer the golden family of the year.

"If they knew that our Tatar tribes were included in the Ming Dynasty, it is estimated that they would kill us all."

Battle thought for a moment and shook his head.

"Don't worry, they won't."

"Wang Shouren's 10,000 cavalry have swept across the grassland, and my Ming Dynasty has now formed a cavalry army of 50,000 people.

Liu Jin smiled and said very confidently.

The reason why Maozi in later generations was able to push all the way from west to east was mainly due to firearms, of course, another reason is because this vast area is sparsely populated, and a simple defeat of a khanate can occupy a large vast land, and in a few hundred years, it can easily have the largest territory in the world.

Liu Jin didn't believe that with the current strength of the Ming Dynasty, there was no way to push it from east to west.

If you want firearms, you need a strong national strength, you want a strong national strength, you want a population to have a population, and it is absolutely easy to push all the way through, and it does not take hundreds of years at all.

The key now is how to hold on to these places after they have been occupied.

Basically, it is grassland, and there are not many places that can be cultivated, except for the area near the Black Sea, which has fertile black soil and natural conditions that can be cultivated, most of the places are not suitable for farming.

Therefore, if you want to rule this area, these grassland people must be missing, and the key is to make a way to make a fortune that can attract the Ming people.

This land Silk Road is very good, if you can open up such a trade route, then you don't need to work hard by sea, you can also take the land route.

Hearing Liu Jin's words, Battle, Hadan, and Huhe were immediately silent.

After arriving in the Beijing-Tianjin area, they not only saw the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty, but also saw the strength of the Ming Dynasty, during which they visited the Ming Royal Military Academy.

After seeing the terrifying power of muskets and cannons, and even more so the power of the Ming Royal Military Academy, they knew that from now on, there would be nothing to do with them in the world hegemony.

In the face of terrible muskets and artillery, coupled with the well-trained and well-organized Ming army, the current situation may be the best ending.

"Lord Liu, if there is anything you want at that time, I will definitely do it."

The three of them thought about it carefully, and immediately understood that Liu Jin had something to do with them, looked at each other, exchanged glances, and said quickly.

"Battle is angry when he says that."

"We're good friends, brothers, and we're close to Anda together."

"I want your help too."

"The grievances between the grassland people and our Ming people have lasted for thousands of years, and it is time to put it down, you look at the following, how good it is now."

"The herdsmen on the grassland can live a prosperous life, and we Ming people can also obtain wool, cattle, sheep and horses from the grassland, which is mutually beneficial, and we can live well without fighting and killing each other."

"The world is very big, and it is very vast, and there are other races in the world, people in Europe, Persia, the Middle East, Tianzhu are white, and here in Africa are black."

"We Ming people and you grassland people are all Orientals, there is no big difference in our appearance, we have a common ancestor."

"Why don't we put aside our prejudices and join forces to build more territory in this world?"

"As long as we are together, nothing in this world can stop us."

"When the time comes, we will not only be able to sweep across Europe and Asia, but we will also be able to occupy more fertile land and pastures around the world."

Liu Jin looked at the three of them, thought about it and said.

Hearing Liu Jin's words, the three of them nodded slightly, now the Tatar tribes are indeed living a good life, after being included in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, the small life is comfortable, and it is much better than before.

"You realize this, and you see this."

"But others may not be able to see and realize this."

"So I need you to go to the grassland to lobby other grassland tribes, so that they can join our Daming, it is naturally best to be able to shed blood, so that there can be less sacrifice."

"In addition, when the time comes, you will need to take the lead in establishing a commercial bank."

"Well, it's called the Western Regions Commercial Bank, this Western Regions Commercial Bank, can attract everyone to invest, its main business is from the Ming Dynasty to the west, from the Western Regions all the way to the west, open up trade routes, sell cotton, wool, cattle and sheep, horses to Daming, and then sell Daming's silk, porcelain, cloth, glass products, etc. to the Western Regions and beyond."

"At that time, this Western Regions trading house can also attract other grassland tribal leaders and nobles to become shareholders, and the ultimate goal is to open up a trade route to Europe and Middle-earth."

Liu Jin said slowly.

Regarding how to advance from east to west, it is not difficult to occupy these places, but it is difficult to rule these places, so Liu Jin also thought about it for a long time.

After all, I feel that it is not only necessary to tie these grassland tribal leaders and nobles to the chariot of the Ming Dynasty, but also to find a way to stimulate the Ming people to continue to go west, whether it is business or farming, in short, there is a truth that has remained unchanged since ancient times, that is, if there are no people of your own in these places.

Even if you can rule for a while, you can't rule forever.

In the final analysis, it is still people, and there are people who have everything.

Liu Jin also thought that when the Ming Dynasty was rampant in the future, he would continue to match the Ming people with foreign wives and concubines, and if he had a few more wives, there would naturally be more offspring born here.

"There is no problem, it is my honor to be able to serve the imperial court."

When the three of them heard this, they immediately hurriedly agreed.

Don't even think about it, they are all officials of the Ming Dynasty now.

Battle was the first to take refuge, Emperor Hongzhi gave him a fourth-grade official title, and Hadan and Huhe were also five-rank officials, and they both had to go to the early dynasty.

Eat the king's fortune and be loyal to the king.

Now is the time for them to show their loyalty.

Isn't it to persuade people to take refuge in the Ming Dynasty, isn't it to establish a commercial bank, open up the Western Regions, and open up trade routes, what's so difficult about this?

The Ming army is strong, and when the time comes, it is best to agree, and if you don't agree, you will use muskets and cannons to talk to you, simply and easily.

Anyway, in their opinion, it is not difficult for the Ming Dynasty to push it from east to west.

Fifty thousand elite horsemen armed to the teeth are enough, not to mention muskets and cannons, and the castles of the Western Regions countries simply can't withstand the bombardment of cannons.
