Chapter 807 Preaching
Li Zhi tirelessly reminded him repeatedly to ensure the perfect resolution of this matter.
The peace and stability between the two countries can be maintained for a period of time, which has a great impact on the completion of the transfer of imperial power by the Tang imperial family.
It is true that Datang is currently one of the only two superpowers in the world, but the harsh external environment and the overall backwardness of the scientific and technological situation have led to the strength of Datang's military strength, which is more based on the use of troops and the number of troops.
Therefore, the failure of the local war situation will directly lead to the invasion of foreign troops, which will approach the capital in a very short time, and the vast territory of Datang and the untimely mobilization of troops are the main reasons for this situation.
Once the forces can be gathered, the invading enemies will also be driven out, but this creates an illusion that the Tang Dynasty's military strength is just like that, which leads to the continuous expansion of the ambitions of the surrounding ethnic forces.
Li Zhi knew this well, so he would first contribute the more powerful gunpowder, and now because its threat is too huge, it has greatly improved the defense of many frontiers.
In such a delicate situation, how to reduce external threats is the biggest uncertainty faced by Datang, which is why Li Zhicai attaches so much importance to the hidden dangers of foreign war from the sea.
I have to say that this time the figure of Dongying cultivators appeared on the ground of the Tang Dynasty, which is a good thing to a certain extent, once Li Zhi brings most of the powerful cultivators to the cultivation realm after twenty or thirty years, these Dongying cultivators will be a mortal threat.
It was precisely because of such excuses that he was able to kill Shangdongying in a grand manner, deal a devastating blow to the cultivation forces there, and if he was lucky, he might be able to cut off their cultivation inheritance.
Therefore, the existence of Naoki Kusakabe plays a vital role, and if it is used properly, it will not only make Li Zhi's future very smooth, but also promote the peaceful coexistence between the two countries for nearly 200 years.
The importance of these two hundred years of friendship can be seen from one thing.
This happened during the Anshi Rebellion in the late Tang Dynasty, when Emperor Junhito received the news of the Anshi Rebellion due to the timeliness of information transmission, it was already the fourth year after the Great Rebellion, that is, the same year that Emperor Junhito ascended the throne.
Although the foundation was not solid, Emperor Junhito and the Imperial Master Fujiwara Nakamaro reacted first when they heard the news of the Anshi Rebellion and prepared to send troops to help the Tang Dynasty quell the rebellion.
To this end, Emperor Junhito also ordered a nationwide alert, recruited soldiers on a large scale, and prepared to give the Tang Dynasty a large number of horns to be used as raw materials for weapons.
Although the trip was not made due to various internal and external factors, it can also be seen that there was a good potential significance between the two countries at that time, that is, as the most "righteous" Japanese emperor to China, Emperor Junhito did not take advantage of the fire to loot when the Tang Dynasty was in turmoil, but was ready to send troops to help the Tang Dynasty quell the chaos, and its significance is naturally obvious.
Li Zhi's face was facing the sun, and the lower part of the straight light said:
"Cultivators are too powerful to be recognized by the imperial power in any country, and we in Datang are the same. But unlike you Dongying, there are strict rules and orders between all levels of Datang, as long as there is no request from the royal family, the cultivation world will not interfere in the affairs of the DPRK and China, which is also the main reason why you Dongying cultivators have been in Datang for more than a year, and have not yet attracted strong people to come and drive them away! ”
When Taiping heard this, he understood and said:
"Mr. Li is the main intermediary between the imperial court and the cultivation world, he has been in the south for a year, and he has traveled to the Western Regions for several months, which has caused the imperial court to establish a connection with the cultivation world in time. But since he has returned, he will expel the cultivators from foreign forces, and once these cultivators threaten the original order of the Tang Dynasty, Mr. Li will activate his privileges and summon the cultivation forces to eradicate them, even if these unprovoked intruders are far away and will not stop until they achieve their goal. ”
Li Zhi then continued:
"A few days ago, I heard a joke from a cultivator from Dongying, he once threatened that Dongying's Iori will belong to the God of War family, even if it is a relative of the Tang Emperor, and he can't escape the must-kill pursuit order of the God of War family, and he will not die!"
When Naoki heard this, his face was distorted, and he sighed in his heart, it was really a joke, there is no so-called must-kill pursuit warrant, people will also kill the island to exterminate the clan, and he is also endless, he is very ashamed of his compatriot who can't distinguish the situation.
"But you and the royal family should also rest assured, I will never take a large group of people to your country on this trip, let alone have any person, business, or involvement with any person other than the target. Of course, if the information obtained is accurate, the destructive power can be suppressed to a minimum! ”
Li Zhi's words are equivalent to making a request: I will take people to help the royal family eradicate the biggest hidden danger, you need to provide me with detailed information, otherwise it will be difficult to control the spread of the war.
It's not that Naoki Kusakabe hadn't weighed the stakes before, and the final conclusion he came to was something else, but he knew that no matter whether the Dongying royal family recognized it or not, Li Zhi would take this action.
In this way, the royal family will have to choose between the chaos of the social order from now on, or the current control of the royal family will be stabilized.
But at present, the more important choice is in the hands of Li Zhi, and the royal family is powerless, that is, the terrifying cultivation strength of Li Zhi and the people around him.
Once Li Zhi moved the idea of coveting the imperial power of Dongying, his next trip would plunge the Wa Kingdom into unknown turmoil, which is also the main reason why Naohui of the current day is sworn on the surface, but there are other worries in his heart.
Li Zhi's mind-reading technique can fully understand the person's psychological changes, so he continued:
"I know you have other concerns, but I don't want to take more extreme mind control on you! Have you noticed the three people from the Western Regions today? They are under the mind control of my brainwash, and their expressions are a little dull, and it is precisely because of this! ”
Naoki Kusakabe thought about it carefully, and sure enough, he found that there was an abnormality, although he was not a cultivator, he also knew that once his mind was damaged, his behavior and expression would be partially displayed.
Moreover, soul searching is not a mysterious spell, at least in Eastern myths and legends, there are large descriptions.
The memory reading that Li Zhi used before is exactly a method in the soul searching technique, and using the mind to control people's minds is not a fool's dream.
He can understand but it doesn't mean that he can accept it in his heart, so after thinking about it, he shivered all over his body, and it was better to be someone else's walking corpse.
Seizing this opportunity, Li Zhi took the opportunity to explain:
"Why didn't I take such a more direct approach? That's because I care about the friendly exchanges between the two countries, and Datang has no interest in your country's territory at all. Just like Goguryeo, which is so close at hand, we are a victorious power, and we only regard it as a vassal state, and we have not completely occupied it, and the previous war was only because of a solid bilateral relationship! ”
Princess Taiping took the opportunity to interject: "Mr. Li went to the Western Regions before, but also to implement the Arab Empire to become a friendly neighbor of the Tang Dynasty. ”
Sensing that the fluctuations in the new sunset were becoming more obvious, Li Zhi did not dare to slack off, and continued to use words to implement the authenticity of the situation:
"Not only Goguryeo, the Western Regions and your Dongying, but also the Turks, Khitans, Tibetans, Tianzhu, Zhuyahai, and Annan will be the targets of the same treatment by the Tang Dynasty.
"Why has Datang taken such a new situation recently?" Despite the sense of identity in his heart, Naoki Kusakabe couldn't help but ask out loud.
Li Zhi smiled:
"That's because Datang began to taste the sweetness of vigorously developing the economy, and gradually realized that the prosperity of the country can make the people strong, and the strength of the body comes from internal nourishment, and change is the immutable law of sustainable existence and development! No matter what state the society develops, your food and nutrition, clothing, mattress, housing, kitchenware, clothing, etc., these necessities of life and the existence of eternal reality, solidly reflect that only the people are the main group and fundamental magnificent force that create material wealth, social value and cultural power, cultural and spiritual value, and are the eternal support for the life and life of the people of the country! And only national security can stimulate the enthusiasm of the people, this is not a sudden epiphany of Datang, but the inevitability of realizing the general trend! ”
Taking a sip of tea, he continued:
"The central task of my Datang country is not diplomacy, let alone military. It is the domestic economy, nor is it a comprehensive foreign economy that goes out, because diplomacy and the military, as well as the necessary going out, should be beneficial to the domestic economy and must serve the domestic economy. Otherwise, it is a toss, and it is an excellent strategic opportunity to consume Datang's current rare self-improvement, and to learn advanced technology and use it reasonably. ”
A grand remark, even Princess Taiping has heard of it for the first time, although she knows that this is Li Zhi's casual words, but she can also detect the essence of the meaning from it.
And Li Zhi also didn't expect that these later generations used rotten warning words to make a deep impression on Taiping's heart, and in the following decades, two successive emperors were deeply influenced by her borrowing this theory, and the Tang Dynasty was also strong for decades.
This is a later story, so I won't mention it for the time being.
Naoki Kusakabe was also deeply shocked, although he was only twenty-seven years old, he was able to become the chief staff of the first heir to the throne, Prince Kusakabe, of course, a person with real ability.
Whether it is the analysis of domestic and foreign affairs, the foresight of the country's development prospects, or the overall situation of the political system, he has his own set of perfect interpretation methods.
Li Zhi's remarks are a general summary of such situations in later generations, and they also condense the correct direction of some core issues, so that the heart of Naoki under the sun can be greatly shaken.
It is far more convincing than any coercion or inducement, and perhaps useless to those who are not interested in political affairs, who happens to be one of the limited people who are deeply aware of the key to it.
So after a long time, he spoke again, and it was already able to show that Naoki Sunshita's heart was completely convinced:
"I can realize that this is not a temporary rhetoric adopted by Mr. Li in order to persuade me, but it is impossible to say such a perfect and comprehensive overall exposition without years of profound research! Therefore, I firmly believe in the good intentions of the Tang royal family and Mr. Li! ”
Although Li Zhi was also amused for a while, it also made him see that this person was indeed worthy of the chief staff of the Caobi Prince, and he could understand the importance of these later generations in such a short period of time.
However, theory is theory after all, and only when it is put into practice can it be regarded as truly great wisdom.
Just as the beginning of Taoist doctrine is the essence of Zhuoyi, there are many people who realize the nobility of its essential parts, but how many people can really understand it themselves?
But all this is not the point, the point is that Li Zhi has achieved the full faithfulness of Naoki Tomorrow Shimobe through it.
Li Zhi even believed that if this person could become the chief staff, there must be a way to convince the prince of Kusakabe, and only by that prince could he influence the support of the emperor.
