At that time, North Korea was a small country, whether it was the superpower Soviet Union, the United States, China and various European countries, no one took it seriously, but it was such a small country, but in such a small place on the Korean Peninsula, such a tragic war broke out between various major powers, which at the beginning of the war, no matter which big country, did not expect, and also the elites of various countries, did not expect. Even after the war, all the countries that participated in the war, everyone recalled it and felt extremely incredible.

As for the reasons for sending troops to Korea, China's great men have their own considerations, and this war has indeed made China completely stand up in the world. The Chinese army showed strong fighting strength and tenacious will to fight, so that all countries in the world were deeply impressed, but also made the superpowers at that time the Soviet Union and the United States have to pay more attention to China, dare not wantonly interfere in China's internal affairs, this war, stabilized the people's power of New China, provided a relatively stable environment for China's development, even the Chiang Kai-shek in Taiwan will be next to Chiang Ching-kuo said: "In this world, no one is his Mao Zedong's opponent, the United States said that I Chiang Kai-shek can't do it, But what about them? I think they are also a bunch of stupid pigs in Western countries. They can't be compared with Mao Zedong of the Communist Party of China in any way! The best armies of 16 countries were beaten so embarrassed by Mao Zedong, shame! Mao Zedong was the pride of the Chinese, and he was even more a genius. I don't care how many capable people the CCP has, only Mao Zedong squeezed me to these small islands. The allies are no match for Mao Zedong anymore, Mao Zedong is an art to fight! Leadership in all aspects is art! It's a masterful art! ”

Li Xuan knew in his heart that the situation in Datang today was very similar to the situation at that time, but the purpose of the war and the benefits of the war were significantly different.

At that time, North Korea wanted to unify the Korean Peninsula and complete the reunification of the country; The United States wants to seize the Korean Peninsula, which can threaten both the Soviet Union and China; The Soviet Union and China did not want to see "others snoring on the side of the couch". The United States will not be allowed to seize the Korean Peninsula. Out of the need to safeguard the civil rights of the new Chinese and the independence of the nation, China also sent a large army into Korea to fight. Each country has its own needs, and each country has its own tangible interests in it.

But now the situation in the Tang Dynasty is different, Tuyuhun has been defeated by Tubo, and the decisive battle with Tubo has also been defeated. What Tubo wanted was to get the respect of the Tang Dynasty and let the Tang Dynasty recognize the status of Tubo as a great power, and His Majesty the Tang Emperor promised Tubo Zanpu Songzan Gampo to marry the Tang princess and establish good diplomatic relations with the Tang Dynasty, the overlord of the world; Tuyuhun wanted to borrow the power of Datang. Let the Tang Dynasty help it defeat Tibet and restore its original territory; And if the Tang Dynasty helps Tuyuhun and fights against Tubo, but there is no real benefit to be gained, it can only restore the territory for Tuyuhun, fight with Tubo, work hard, make wedding clothes for Tuyuhun, and let Tuyuhun get real benefits. But Datang gained nothing.

So, Li Xuan opened his mouth and said to the Tang Emperor Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, the minister knows that Your Majesty has the heart to support Tuyuhun and conquer Tubo. But the minister thinks that this matter must not be done. His Majesty is the son of heaven of the Tang Dynasty, and his heart is pretending to be the Tang Dynasty Sheji, and he is pretending to be the people of the Tang Dynasty, if His Majesty insists on supporting Tuyuhun. Conquest of the Turks, then the minister thinks that this matter is definitely not conducive to my Tang Dynasty Sheji, and it is not conducive to my Tang people. His Majesty is the Son of the Tang Dynasty. Everything needs to be measured, if there is gain, do it, and if there is no gain and loss, do not do it. If I support Tuyuhun and conquer the Turks, then the minister can't help but ask Your Majesty, what does my Datang gain? ”

Li Shimin replied: "Tuyuhun is the earliest batch of countries that respect my Tang Dynasty as the suzerainty and I as the Heavenly Khan, just like my Tang Dynasty's vassal country, if my Tang Dynasty does not support them this time and allows them to be bullied by Tubo, then who in the surrounding countries is willing to truly respect my Tang Dynasty and follow my Tang Dynasty?" In exchange for the sincerity of the surrounding countries, I still think that my Datang should send troops. ”

Li Xuan laughed and said: "Your Majesty is really sincere, but there are only tangible interests between countries, how can there be any friendship at all?" When I was suppressed by the Turks and bullied by the Turks, why didn't any of these countries come to support my Datang for the friendship that His Majesty said? Now that my Datang has defeated the powerful Turks and become the biggest overlord in the world, they are all busy taking refuge in my Datang, respecting my Datang as the suzerain, and respecting Your Majesty as the Khan of the Heavens. When it comes to the roots, it's all because of profits. Before, they didn't take refuge in my Datang, because they felt that my Datang was weak and could not benefit them, but now they are vying to take refuge in my Datang because my Datang country is strong and can provide them with shelter.

If Your Majesty insists on supporting Tuyuhun and conquering Tibet. If the war between my Tang and Tubo starts, there will inevitably be a lot of dead and wounded soldiers in my Datang, and in the end my Datang will gain nothing, and Tubo will inevitably suffer heavy casualties and damage to the national strength, but this Tuyuhun can regain the land he lost in the war with Tubo without much effort.

When the time comes, Your Majesty thinks that all countries will respect me Datang from the bottom of their hearts, but in fact, it is the opposite, all countries will think that my Datang has done stupid things, which makes people laugh.

If a country does not strengthen itself, but has been relying on other countries to survive and develop, the minister thinks that there should be no such thing in this world. If I Datang Tuguhun for a weak country that can't be supported, and become a mortal enemy with a strong country, Tubo, the minister thinks it is extremely undesirable.

If Your Majesty supports Tuyuhun this time and conquers Tubo, all countries will take the initiative to provoke a war with the big countries around them, and when the time comes, how should I deal with it? Are these small countries enemies of the neighboring powers? Fighting from all sides, fighting against these big powers? Do you use the lives of my people in the Tang Dynasty and the money of my Tang treasury to fight for the interests of these small countries?

Therefore, the minister thinks that my Tang Dynasty should proceed from the interests of his own country and the interests of the people, recognize the status of Tubo as a great power, and allow the princess to marry Tubo Zanpu Songtsan Gampo, in order to maintain the dignity of the Tang Dynasty and maintain the status of the Tang Dynasty as the suzerainty among the countries, Tubo can be strictly ordered to withdraw to the plateau and give up the occupation of the territory of Tuyuhun, so that the expansion of Tubo's national strength can be limited, and Tuyuhun's gratitude and loyalty can be obtained, and the surrounding countries can be more dependent on my Datang and trust my Datang. What's more, with the marriage of my Tang princess to Tubo, my Datang can also take the opportunity to establish pro-Tang forces in Tubo to ensure the long-term peace between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo. ”

After thinking about it, Tang Emperor Li Shimin said: "What King Yong'an said is extremely true. Establishing good diplomatic relations with Tubo is the most in line with the interests of my Datang, and it is also the most beneficial to my Datang Sheji and the people of Datang. I should adopt it. (To be continued.) )
