Although the throne was passed on to me, but you haven't abdicated yet, how can you let me be fully responsible.

Li Kuan's heart was full of resentment.

He was not satisfied with Li Shimin's attitude.

But Li Shimin was very satisfied with his attitude.

After teasing Li Kuan for a while, Li Shimin asked Li Kuan to tell all the recent events in Datang.

The main thing is to talk about big things.

It took three hours just to recount it.

After listening, Li Shimin said lightly: "Isn't this very good, although there are waves, it is still peaceful." ”

"Officials from all over the country are working hard, the people live and work in peace and contentment, the politics are clear, and there is a proper scene of prosperity, where are there so many things that need to be reported."

Li Kuan was speechless.

Big guy, I want you to give me advice, I want you to know the state of Datang.

"However, I have a question of what you are going to do with the Arab Empire."

Li Shimin looked at Li Kuan faintly.

At present, Datang's biggest opponent is this country.

Li Kuan also fell silent.

The Arab Empire in history can be said to be at peace with the Tang Dynasty, because of the distance, the vitality of the two sides in Central Asia is limited, the Tang Dynasty can't fight, they can't fight, everyone can only confront, and occasionally there is a small friction.

But the Arab Empire and the Tang Dynasty in this life can't do it.

The Tang Dynasty's power in Central Asia already had the potential to challenge another empire.

Then it can be said that the side of the couch does not allow others to snore.

Not only the Tang Dynasty, but also the Arab Empire can say this.

Because everyone knows that between empires and empires, there is no peace, only the opening of the next war.

"Support the Central Asian families in terms of materials, generals, and officials, encourage them to erode the Arab Empire, and if they can destroy the other side, it is best to drag the Arab Empire into the quagmire of war, even if they can't."

"With a size larger than the Arab Empire, we can consume the potential of the other side as much as possible, and wait for the time to fall."

Battles between empires and empires are not counted in one or two wars, they have always been counted in ten years.

The famous ones are the Western Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu, and the two empires fought for hundreds of years.

The Qiang Rebellion in the Eastern Han Dynasty also lasted for nearly a hundred years.

The size of the empire was too large, and the losses of one or two wars were nothing at all.

The main reason why Datang was able to defeat Sassanid Persia in this life was that Sassanid Persia was corrupt, and there were too many original sins inside, and it was on the verge of collapse.

The Arab Empire, on the other hand, was at this time a rising sun, with a clear internal politics and unity.

It's not good to fight.

"It's a good idea, but will the Central Asian family agree?"

"Isn't their main focus now on that wild land?"

"Including your energy."

Li Shimin pointed to Eastern Europe on the map on the wall of his study, and said meaningfully.

Li Shimin also has a copy of the investigation materials in Eastern Europe.

The materials are sufficient, there are several places in the land of Longteng, and although the ethnic groups that occupy there have good combat effectiveness, it is just like that for the Tang Dynasty.

Especially the other party still likes to drink, and after Datang sent a few jars of high-level wine, the other party directly surrendered without recognizing his six relatives.

The forces that can reach out to the past now, where are the main energies basically placed.

Li Kuan nodded lightly.

"It's a land that's rich in resources, but it's an undeveloped area."

"The Arab Empire is different, their land has been developed, and if it is defeated, it can be used, and it can be transformed into combat effectiveness at the fastest speed."

For Eastern Europe, Li Kuan's idea has always been to develop slowly.

Millions of square kilometers of land, with millions of tribes and tens of millions of animals.

The land is wild, and it can be said that it has not been developed at all.

If you want to transform it into a residential area with combat effectiveness and potential, the people of the past must first build housing cities, open up wasteland, exploit minerals, and establish economic zones.

Step by step, there is no decade that will not be fruitful.

And in the first ten years, it was all about investment.

Although the rate of return is high, it is impossible to put all your energy there.

Especially if you have to do racial integration, it's even harder.

The integration of culture, religion, language, ancestry, etc., will consume a lot of energy, and this time period can be counted in several generations.

Therefore, Li Kuan was not afraid at all that others would not obey the order to fight the Arab Empire.

If you can see the benefits of fighting the Arab Empire as soon as possible, and focus your energy entirely on Eastern Europe, let's wait for ten years.

Just think of the time it took for the Chinese people to expand their land.

Why is the Zhou Dynasty great in history, just know that a feudal world, so that many awesome figures at the same time, such as Jiang Ziya and Marshal Jiang, spent the rest of their lives on running their own feudal country.

When Jiang Ziya was first divided into Qi land, there was nothing in Qi land at that time, only a large number of wild people, in order to make his own feudal country, Jiang Ziya could only bury his head in the acres of land.

This burial is several generations of the Jiang family.

Although Li Kuan knew very well that although those families were engaged in various developments in Eastern Europe, they were still willing to focus on attacking the Arab Empire.

and they will have a vein.

Li Shimin glanced at Li Kuan deeply, and said lightly: "When I went to South Asia this time, they asked me one thing vaguely, can I send a branch of people to the wilderness." ”

"I agreed."

Li Kuan nodded.

"Well, if it were me, I would agree."

"You can't let the Central Asian family dominate there."

"I'm going to send Li Chen over."

Li Shimin's eyes widened.

What are you talking about?

Your son is only a year old, and you are to send him there.

"Now, I'm going to send Li Yuanjing and them to the wilderness."

"Then I will bury my back hand over there in private, and send Li Chen over when he is older."

"The Western Regions and Central Asia can still be left for the young slaves to practice, and when Li Chen arrives, he will have to develop a new training ground."

"Eastern Europe is very good."

Li Kuan put out his thoughts, and then looked at Li Shimin quietly.

After a deep sigh, Li Shimin said lightly: "The idea is very good, and it is also very executable." ”

Li Shimin really thinks this idea is good.

In another twenty or thirty years, the storms in the Tang Dynasty and Central Asia will gradually change into political storms, and there will be a lack of swords, guns, swords, and halberds.

In Li Shimin's eyes, such a storm cannot train a good enough monarch.

At this time, it is necessary to find a place with both swords, guns, swords, and halberds, as well as political storms.

The Wild Lands, that is, Eastern Europe, may be good.

More than a decade later, Eastern Europe has just undergone basic development, and ambitious people will inevitably start a local war.

It's great for training.

Li Shimin glanced at Li Kuan appreciatively, this kid is very good, and he can realize the importance of the sword to the emperor.

In Li Shimin's eyes, a qualified emperor must recognize the importance of the sword.

A sword sometimes doesn't solve a problem, but it solves the person who asks the problem.
