Chapter 0219 Where there is a will, there is a way

In front of Leon, Serus suddenly found that his so-called restoration of the Persian dynasty was so pale and powerless. Li Ang's words caused a huge shock in his heart.

In less than a pillar of incense talking, he had already been criticized by Li Ang for being incomplete, and he was self-conscious.

But because of this, he had a deep respect for Leon, and at least one person finally pointed out the problems that existed for him in the restoration of the Persian dynasty.

He bowed deeply again and said, "Please Mr. Li teach me!" ”

There is no doubt that Leon supported the restoration of Persia in his heart. The current Islam has not yet been introduced to the Western Regions, and if Persia can be restored, the Western Regions will be equivalent to a barrier.

Anyway, it was just a matter of talking about it, and Li Ang had nothing to do, so he said to Cyrus: "Your Royal Highness, you Persians are very talented in business, and many Persians have become merchants on the rich side after moving east to the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, in this first step, His Royal Highness must win their support and unite all the forces that can be united, so that it is possible to regain the Persian homeland.

And in order to gain the support of others, His Royal Highness the Prince must start with himself, make up his mind to live a frugal life, and free up all resources for the great cause of recovery.

In addition, you must have the courage of Han Xin to endure the humiliation of his crotch, no matter what method you use, even if you go to the West Market to kneel down to people, you must seek the sympathy of more people, especially the Persians who are in exile in the Tang Dynasty.

Once you have the money, it's time to form an army. Whether they are Persians, Sogdians, or Turks, if he is willing to serve His Royal Highness, you will recruit them first.

Your Royal Highness the Prince, please listen to what I have to say. The matter of forming an army. You can make it clear to the Tang Emperor, and you will make offerings by yourself. Datang has always supported your restoration of the country. I believe that if you ask for the formation of three or five thousand cavalry, it will not be difficult to get the support of my Tang Emperor.

As long as the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty agrees with you to form an army. You can ask for one or two generals who can recruit and fight well to help you train your army. I, the Tang Dynasty, am like a cloud, and I believe that the emperor will agree to this matter.

Of course, training alone is not enough, and all the armies that can fight well are all fought. Therefore, you must not be afraid of sacrifice and let your army assist the Tang army for at least a year. Let them see more blood, so that they can shoulder the heavy responsibility of recovering Persia in the future. ”

During the reign of Tang Gaozong, Serus's grandfather Ninishi also got the permission of the emperor to recruit an army of two or three thousand people, and Pei Xingjian, the servant of the ministry, led the troops to escort him back to China.

The army of two or three thousand men of the Nini Division had no training, and there were no effective cadres under him. Ninishi spent 20 years in Tocharo, but with no success, he had to return to Chang'an.

From this point on, as long as Sellus pays for it. It is indeed possible that the Tang Emperor allowed him to raise his own army for the restoration of the country.

Leon's words were like a bright light, showing a path for Serus. While he was excited, he knelt down to Li Ang and said, "Thank you Mr. Li for your advice." I also asked Mr. Li to take me as an apprentice and teach me a career. ”

The move came as a surprise to Leon. He hurriedly went up to help Serus, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, please get up, you are the general of the Tang Dynasty Zuo Weiwei, I am just an ordinary man, how can I accept your salute, His Royal Highness the Prince, please get up." ”

"If Mr. Li doesn't take me as an apprentice, I can't afford it." Cyrus insisted on kneeling.

Gongsun Jingyu looked at it interestingly, and interjected: "Big brother, why don't you just accept him....... hiss, by the way, didn't the eldest brother say that he wanted to raise a few orchids?" Otherwise, it's okay to ask him to send you a few, hehe! ”

"Brother Xian, don't talk nonsense!"

"Big brother, what do I have, if you want it, just say it, he won't give it, why don't I get a few for my eldest brother!"

Li Ang simply didn't bother to pay attention to Gongsun Jingyu, he helped Serus up and said, "Your Royal Highness, I still have something to say, you get up first." ”

Serus had no choice but to get up and bow again, "Sir, please speak." ”

Leon calculated in his heart that it was the white clothes who now ruled the Persian region; As far as he knew, in the famous battle that established the hegemony of the Hanzhong region in history - the Battle of Talas, Gao Xianzhi fought against the black-clothed Great Food.

Leon couldn't remember the year the Battle of Talas took place, but it was probably in the next few years. In other words, the black food replaced the white food within a few years.

Such a major regime change would inevitably lead to war, and if Serus really wanted to restore the Persian Empire, this would be a good opportunity.

Li Ang immediately said: "Your Royal Highness Prince, as far as I know, the internal sectarian struggle within the White Clothes Food is becoming more and more fierce, and the regime has been crumbling, if it is not what I expected, the White Clothes Food will perish within a few years.

In other words, there is not much time left for His Royal Highness the Prince, and within these few years, if you can form a good war army, take advantage of the chaos, and have the support of the Tang Dynasty, this will be your only chance to recover Persia. ”

"Really, sir?" Cyrus asked excitedly. If Leon had said these words from the beginning, he would definitely not believe it, but now, he had been deeply impressed by Leon, and there was not much doubt about his prediction.

"Opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared. His Royal Highness the Prince, let's not care whether the white-clothed food will perish in the next few years, it is only right for you to build a good war division as soon as possible, the first step is to gather wealth, the second step is to recruit soldiers, and if you want to quickly raise a large amount of wealth, it really depends on you to go to the West Market and kneel, that is not possible. ”

"Sir, what is that going to do?" Cyrus asked anxiously.

"It is only by the manifestation of the God of Light."

"Huh?" Cyrus opened his mouth wide, as if he had been poured a basin of cold water on his head, and it was cold to the heart. Counting on the manifestation of the god of light, who knows when the god of light will manifest? "Sir, this ........."

Li Ang glanced at him and smiled indifferently: "The God of Light will not automatically manifest, so you will let him manifest, won't this be done?" ”

Cyrus couldn't help but point to the tip of his nose and said, "Me? Let the god of light manifest?! ”

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, are you really ready to lie down and try your courage, overcome all difficulties, and even sacrifice your life for the restoration of the country?" Leon asked solemnly.

"Sir, I was ready for this, but I didn't know how to do it before. As long as Mr. can show me a clear way, I swear that I am willing to go to the soup for this, never give up, and never forget Mr.'s kindness. ”

Seeing that he was resolute and determined, Li Ang first nodded, then beckoned to him, asked him to come over and whispered to him for a while.

After Leon finished speaking, Cyrus widened his eyes and asked in a trembling voice in disbelief, "Sir, is this, really okay?" ”

"Where there is a will, there is a way, and the one hundred and two Qin Passes belong to Chu after all; Hard-working people, the sky does not bear, lying on the salary to taste the gall of 3,000 Yuejia can swallow Wu. (To be continued.) )
