"Nope."

An Yan looked at the emperor with a smile: "It's the people of the Western Regions. ”

The emperor waved his sleeves: "You want to say, win the hearts of the people?" ”

"Not bad."

An Yan said: "The people don't care who is in charge of the power, what they care about is whether they are doing well or not, whether they have enough to eat, whether they have clothes to wear, and whether they have hope for their lives." As long as we win the support of the people of the Western Regions, we already have more than half of the odds of victory. ”

An Yan's tone was very confident, and the emperor was also interested: "Then there is still a part of the chances of winning, where is it?" ”

An Yan smiled: "There is another part, of course, the Tanna family." ”

"In other words, you still need to play a game with the Tanna family."

The emperor lay down on a chair behind him: "Different paths lead to the same end." ”

"The Tanna family wants to hold power, but what they do is nothing more than what they think is plundering, in such a situation, the people will be miserable, let alone a good life? As long as the people of the Tanna family lose the hearts of the people, their plot will not succeed. ”

"That ......"

The emperor thought for a while and looked at An Yan, the expression in his eyes was a little unpredictable: "What are you going to do?" ”

"I think we can set up a metropolitan governor's palace in the Western Regions."

The emperor's eyes narrowed slightly: "Do you know what I need to pay to set up a metropolitan governor's mansion?" ”

An Yan nodded respectfully: "I know." However, this Metropolitan Governor's Office, firstly, gave the countries in the Western Regions a deterrent, so that they understood that this was the person of Dahan, and that no country could be violated, and once it was violated, it would be equivalent to threatening Dahan, giving the Silk Road an important guarantee. ”

"Second, this Dadu Governor's Mansion can also be used as a stronghold of the trade route, a management institution integrating tuntian production and military training, and as a stronghold of our Dahan soldiers in the Western Regions, so that we have a sufficient and sophisticated military system to resist the invasion of the Tanna family."

While pondering, the emperor looked at An Yan: "In other words, the main purpose of this Metropolitan Governor's Mansion is to make the Tanna family fearful?" ”

"On the surface, that's exactly what it is."

An Yan said with a smile: "But in the long run, this is equivalent to a stronghold of Dahan in the Western Regions, and the location of the establishment of the Dadu Governor's Mansion is completely the world of Dahan, which is convenient for Dahan to control, and it is also convenient for Dahan to be proficient in the news of various countries, which is only good for Dahan." ”

The emperor nodded: "The plan to set up the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion is quite feasible, but since we want to set up the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, should we build a city in the Western Regions to ensure that this is our Dahan's territory?" ”

The emperor was not a person who liked military exploits, which was why Tang Lin and the others were able to persuade the emperor to give up raising troops to invade the Western Regions.

Otherwise, now it is completely possible to order the army to lead the troops to travel and directly seize a city.

But, in this way, it is useless.

"If we need a reserve of military forces, then we also need to have troops with us."

The emperor looked at the two of them: "Do you have a candidate in mind now?" ”

Tang Lin and An Yan glanced at each other, Tang Lin stepped forward and said respectfully: "Back to the emperor, the people have a candidate in their hearts, I don't know if the emperor is satisfied." ”

"Tell me about it."

The emperor said lightly.

"Can General Wen Zhanwen be the local military leader, General Wen guards the border all the year round and is more familiar with the desert."
