Hearing Xu Ling relay what Chen Baxian said, Li Tai couldn't help but sigh secretly. Although from the perspective of power and conspiracy, Chen Baxian's attack and killing of Wang Seng argued that it could not be said to be majestic and just. However, the Southern Dynasty had Chen Baxian during this period, which was undoubtedly the luck of the people of the Southern Dynasty.

Although the general trend of history is still moving towards reunification after all, the existence of the Nanchen regime or not is definitely two completely different experiences for the people of Jiangnan. Because during this period, whether it was the Western Wei Dynasty or the Northern Qi Dynasty, they actually lacked the stomach and heritage to swallow the entire Southern Dynasty in one bite.

Needless to say, the Battle of Jiangling in history was an out-and-out humanitarian disaster. The various cruel methods are like a thief with insufficient confidence, who has to do his best to burn after breaking through the empty door, and there is no long-term digestion and treatment plan at all. This is already the case in Gangneung, and if it had entered Ganggang during the same period, the situation would not have changed much.

As for the Northern Qi Dynasty, it can really only be hehe, and the strategy shown is more short-sighted and undisciplined than that of the Western Wei Dynasty. Moreover, the next few years happened to be the climax period of Gao Yang's various performance arts, and if the Jiangnan region was included in the rule of the Northern Qi during this period, it would really be a good day ahead.

Although the king's absurdity may not directly affect the common people, the generation of such a large increment will inevitably bring about drastic turbulence and adjustment of the power structure, and it is difficult to say whether it can be better than the Hou Jing period caused by the various ignorant tyranny that has been fed back.

However, recognition is one thing, and to really deal with it, Li Tai must also give priority to the interests of the Western Wei Dynasty.

After weighing it in his heart, he said, "Our country is also in turmoil, the country is not at peace, and the surrounding realms do not seek merit but no fault. In addition, there was a Luoshui alliance with Qi Guofang before, and they did not disturb each other and recuperated separately. Xu Hou is now using this to make me turn my back on the former alliance!"

After Xu Ling heard this, his face suddenly froze, they were only busy pacifying the civil strife during the past period of time, and they had no time to look outside, and they did not have a stable channel to fully understand the information from the outside world. Therefore, the dispute between the East and the West is only a little bit of a major event, but the details are very vague, and I can't imagine that this old enemy who has been fighting with each other for many years will actually negotiate peace.

"Thieves, jackals! Tang Gong was born in his country, he should know his temperament and seek peace with the enemy, which is really not a wise plan! Now Prime Minister Chen is poor and begging, if he gets help to alleviate this crisis, he will be grateful to Dade and be a vassal for generations! I also ask Tang Gong to think twice and help the righteous ...... generously."

When Xu Ling said this, he bowed deeply to the ground and said in a deep voice.

"Xu Hou, please hurry up, thieves are unjust, of course I know very well. I also deeply admire Chen Situ's ability to defy the strong and resolutely meet the attack. However, the current situation in our country is indeed inconvenient. If you say that you can defend together, you can do it, but if you attack together, you can't catch it."

Li Tai raised his hand and ordered the waiter to help Xu Ling up, and then said, "Now that I have to take charge of state affairs, I know that it is not easy to seek a country. Everything and everything, each has its own needs, and each has its own use. Therefore, we want to open up the way of gathering things and enrich our treasury to supplement the country. Chen Situ is now working in Jiangdong, and he must also have this dilemma. Chen Situ still feels that he has sought justice in the past, and I am willing to reconcile with it. If, after this battle, Liyang and Guyu are used for trade with each other, and there is no border defense, it can be described as a great good!"

Now that the Jiangnan region has barely calmed down, it has been war-torn for a long time and is in urgent need of recuperation, and it is really difficult for Chen Baxian to come up with any bargaining chips that can make Li Tai's heart move. If the land is ceded and the alliance is invited, it will inevitably be worse than the king's monk's argument.

Li Tai actually did not rule out assisting Chen Baxian to resist the Northern Qi army, not to mention that history has proved that Chen Baxian had the ability to turn the tide, just for the time being, if the Northern Qi really wants to win this war, it will also make the overall strategic choice of Western Wei become passive. As for the Luoshui Alliance, isn't Luoshui a place for farts?

However, even if he wants to participate in the war, he needs to have real benefits in return. Chen Baxian obviously can't take it out at the moment, so let's take the future overdraft, establish a free trade port between each other, be able to carry out border trade transactions, and by the way, leave an opening for the downstream Jiangfang to open to the Western Wei Dynasty.

The Jiangnan region, especially the core Sanwu area, will recover quickly once the war is calmed down. The business atmosphere in the Jiangnan region is already stronger than that in the north, and once the vitality recovers, it is bound to increase

There is a lot of demand, and the market vitality is restored again.

Li Tai is now also considering the industrial adjustment and development of various regions of the Western Wei Dynasty, and the handicraft workshops that have been developed in Shannan Province, especially in the north of the country, do not plan to move back to Guanzhong, and even these handicraft industries that have existed in Guanzhong, in addition to the important military industry and some other inconvenient product industries, will also move to Zhubian one after another.

For Guanzhong, Li Tai's idea is to focus mainly on agriculture. Although the profit prospects of the handicraft industry are broader, the gathering of a large number of people engaged in the handicraft industry will undoubtedly increase the pressure on food supply.

As the center of power and military in the Western Wei Dynasty, Guanzhong was already responsible for a large number of people who were out of production, and if the promotion of the handicraft industry was used as a way to obtain profits, it would undoubtedly make Guanzhong's food supply more vulnerable. Today's Western Wei Dynasty is not as developed as the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and there is no Heluo area to escape from the famine and chase grain.

Nowadays, the Heluo region is still in the front line of the confrontation between the east and the west, and it is difficult to carry out stable production activities and commercial transactions. In particular, there is a line of the Yangtze River connected by the Han River, the water transportation is convenient and developed, and the water resources are abundant and considerable, and it is an important economic artery connecting the inland areas in later generations.

Although the southern region is not as perfect as that developed in later generations, the development of the middle reaches of the Southern Dynasties has been quite effective, but it has gradually become lonely with the shift of the political center.

Li Tai started in Shannan, of course, to continue to tap and carry forward the potential of Shannan. In the past, when dealing with the turmoil in the country, all the people involved in the rebellion were exiled and distributed to Xiangzhou and other places, which was of course also to invest manpower in the continued development of the Huguang area.

The handicraft industry in Shannan continues to develop, and of course it is necessary to continue to open up the battlefield to other countries. Even the Silk Road, which is far away, needs to be promoted, and there is a stable and considerable market in the south of the Yangtze River. Since Chen Baxian can't get a considerable amount of chips at the moment, he must lock in the future purchasing power of the people in Jiangnan.

"Liyang? Liyang is still under the control of the thieves!"

Xu Ling didn't think as far-reaching as Li Tai thought, and after hearing this, he immediately frowned subconsciously and said.

When Li Tai heard this, he smiled and said, "As long as Chen Situ is willing to agree to this, Liyang will soon be no longer owned by the East Thief."

Of course, Xu Ling heard this, and first raised his eyebrows, but soon showed a tangled look on his face. Liyang is not owned by the Northern Qi, but it seems that it will obviously not be returned to their Southern Liang, this Tang Duke intends to occupy it himself, and he will spare half of his aunt.

Such a change is tantamount to driving the tiger and devouring the wolf, drinking the donkey to quench the thirst, and the slightest carelessness will cause greater trouble. Although the Qi people are cruel and frequently enter the Kou River, the problem is that the Wei people swallowed their entire court with one bite!

Li Tai also knew that this matter could not be decided by an envoy from Xu Ling, so he smiled again: "Since you need to work together, there is no need to worry about it. I will first dispatch divisions and brigades to coordinate the defense and advance to Liyang, and as for whether Chen Situ is willing to fulfill this agreement, we can consider it in the long run."

Xu Ling immediately looked ashamed when he heard this, thinking that he was only empty-handed when he went to ask for help, and Tang Gong still decided to help in the case of the initial decision of state affairs, although he put forward some requirements, but also left a lot of room for maneuvering, and he was still hesitant here, and secretly vigilant, somewhat with the heart of a villain.

"Tang Gong is really benevolent and righteous, which is impressive! Although this matter is not something that Xu can decide, he must make a statement to Prime Minister Chen Cheng about Tang's righteous actions after returning. If the Qi army pushes back and Jiangdong is complete, the two sides of the market trade and exchange of goods are also a good plan for both sides!"

Xu Ling bowed deeply to Li Tai again, and said in a sincere tone.

Li Tai laughed at this, and said, "Since Xu Hou is here, he doesn't have to go back. Although the situation in Jiangdong is dangerous, it is useless for Xu Hou scholars to return. And the matter of first repairing the book and returning the report, I will leave it here to discuss with our people. There is no shortage of Xu Houjiang's old acquaintances here, which can be used to reminisce about the old days and talk goodbye!"

After Xu Ling heard this, he couldn't help but show emotion, it is true that he has many relatives and friends who have old acquaintances now

In the middle of the pass, if you can take this opportunity to visit and visit, it can be regarded as a comfort, so I nodded and thanked him.

After talking to Xu Ling, Li Tai led him out, and immediately looked at the desk to see that there was no important matter that needed to be dealt with immediately, and there was still a period of time before dark, so he paused his observations and prepared some gifts to solve personal problems.
