Chapter 21 Mountain wolves are raised

The middle-aged man said that governing razor is exactly what Li Shimin is clever, and Du He can't deny this.

In the past, in the face of foreign races, most of our China was in a passive defensive situation due to the factors of geographical environment, but Li Shimin's move allowed China to get rid of this predicament: he arranged the dependent foreign races on the border of the Tang Dynasty, and if there was an enemy to attack, the opponents would be these dependent foreign races, and they would no longer be unarmed people.

With the escort of these alien races, Datang had enough time to prepare for the crusade.

In this way, the people of Datang were spared the suffering of war, and they could avoid the economic blow caused by the war. Only Li Shimin has the open-mindedness to make these aliens surrender.

It's just that Li Shimin is too generous, he wants the Tang Dynasty to be prestigious, and he wants the whole world to feel the Tang culture. Therefore, the exchanges with various countries are completely unreserved, poems, agricultural books, Buddhist scriptures, history books, medical codes, calendars, and construction and technology, as long as foreign races want to learn, they can all be retained in Datang.

This is undoubtedly a matter of raising tigers.

Take the book as an example, the Tang Dynasty was just a slave society, and the gap with the Tang Dynasty can be described as one day and one place, but it was because they sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty six times to learn the culture of the Tang Dynasty and the feudal mode of production, which promoted the progress of society, so that they jumped into the feudal era and made them develop rapidly.

Far away on the other side of the world, they have been so affected, let alone the aliens who are close at hand?

Du He has always had the idea that his heart must be different if he is not of my race, so he sneered at Li Shimin's approach and disdained it.

He said coldly: "I'm not saying that we shouldn't accept those alien races with wolf ambitions, on the contrary, Your Majesty's move is exactly what makes you smart!" It's just that when the two sides were in contact, His Majesty was too generous and shared everything in our dynasty with other races. Culture can be shared, but how can technology be shared? ”

Du He's remarks are by no means alarmist, and the most typical example is Tibet.

In the fifteenth year of Zhenguan, Li Shimin married Princess Wencheng to Songtsen Gampo. According to books such as "Hereditary Mingjian of the Tubo Dynasty", when Princess Wencheng entered Tibet, the team was very large, and Li Shimin's dowry was very rich. There are "Buddha statues, treasures, gold and jade bookcases, 360 volumes of scriptures, and various gold and jade ornaments". It also gives a variety of cooking foods, brocade mats with various patterns and patterns, 300 kinds of divination classics, 60 kinds of construction and engineering works, 100 kinds of prescriptions, 4 kinds of medical treatises, 5 kinds of diagnostic methods, 6 kinds of medical equipment, and also carries various grains and turnip seeds.

Almost all the cultural essence of the Tang Dynasty was obtained, which promoted the economic, cultural and military development of Tibet.

Later generations said it well, and they praised Li Shimin's move for strengthening the friendly relations between the Han and Tibetan peoples.

Actually?

Li Shimin was raising wolves and raised a vicious Zhongshan wolf.

Because of the various cultures of the Tang Dynasty, Tubo was unprecedentedly strong, and it became the strongest rival of the Tang Dynasty in the Western Regions. not only seized the Tang Dynasty Anxi, cut off the Silk Road, but even broke through Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, and looted the treasures in Chang'an.

Du He still can't figure out that it is not a bad thing to let foreigners feel the Tang culture and promote the Tang culture, which can be built and related to engineering technology, medical treatises, and farming technology, which are the foundation of making a country prosperous and strong.

Wouldn't Li Shimin's even giving away these precious things tantamount to cultivating a potential rival?

"Let the aliens feel the prosperity of my Tang Dynasty, why not?" The middle-aged man also seems to be slightly aware of the seriousness of the problem, but he is still holding on to it.

"Yes!" Du He smiled slightly: "The meaning of the existence of culture is communication, only communication can make progress, and resting on one's laurels will only go backwards." But there are some things that don't communicate, such as smelting technology. My Datang smelting technology is unparalleled in the world, and it can almost reach the top of the world. What are the benefits of passing on this smelting technology to my Datang? No, passing it out will only make the weapons of the alien race sharper, and make the armor of the alien race stronger, since my Datang can't get benefits, why not keep some, let my Datang's sword always be sharper than the alien race, and let my Datang's armor always be stronger than the alien race, wouldn't it be wonderful! ”

When he said this, Du He remembered the knife, which is one of the three famous blades in the world, but if there is no technology of the Tang Dynasty, if there is no Tang knife as a sample, how can they invent the knife?

The middle-aged man's expression was ever-changing, but a pair of eyes gradually brightened, slapped his thigh fiercely, and said with a smile: "Today, I am taught, let the Tang culture be widely preserved, let the world feel the wealth and strength of my Datang, and let all countries come to congratulate, it is not a bad thing." However, there are some things that benefit others and harm themselves, and they really shouldn't be allowed to learn them. ”

Du He also secretly admired that the middle-aged man's sentence "governing the country and valuing profit" is really good.

Although it is only four words, although it is not a profound truth, it is not easy for middle-aged people to say "governing the country and valuing profit" in a grand manner under the atmosphere of villain valuing profit and gentleman valuing righteousness.

"Listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years! Come...... I toast you! The middle-aged man raised his glass high.

Du He also raised his glass and drank it all.

Middle-aged people don't talk about state affairs, only about Fengyue.

The two of them took a sip and drank a cup of wine.

I don't know whether intentionally or unintentionally, the two drank until the end and actually got into a fight.

"Boy, okay!" The middle-aged man's belly bulged slightly, and two catties of wine had already fallen into his stomach.

Du He was calm, smiled calmly, and said: "I don't usually drink, because when I hold a wine glass, it means that others have to lie down and let people carry it back." ”

Provocation, this is clearly a **naked provocation.

A glimmer of electricity flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes, and Du He also narrowed his eyes.

The guard on the side rubbed his eyes vigorously, and he seemed to see a powerful electric current in the eyes of the two of them colliding with each other. Although he didn't know what electricity was.

The two were fighting on their heads, and they suddenly heard a commotion downstairs, and they looked at each other at the same time.

The middle-aged man's brows furrowed: it was a group of people fighting on the street.

More than a dozen people besieged one person, to be exact.

The man who was besieged was Rotten.

When the two saw each other's appearances clearly, they invariably shouted: "It's Luo Tong!" ”

The two of them looked at each other, and they were both scorched.

Luo Tong's martial arts are strong, but the dozen or so people are not mediocre, and it seems that Luo Tong has fallen into a dangerous situation.

"Be careful!" Du He suddenly found that there was a person behind Luo Tong who actually showed a dagger, and the dagger stabbed straight at Luo Tong's back heart.

Seeing that he was about to be stabbed, an object fell from the sky, and attacked Xiao Xiao's head in the middle, knocking him unconscious.

Du He breathed a sigh of relief, Chu Liuxiang's secret weapon technique is also unique in the world, and Du He, as his apprentice, this technique is not bad.

The middle-aged man hurriedly motioned for the guards beside him to come and help.

Du He took the first step, and he jumped directly from the window on the fourth floor, which was more than ten meters high.
