Li Ke smiled. To be honest, people in later generations said that the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and a series of Himalayas blocked the threat from the West to China, and this allowed Chinese civilization to be passed down uninterrupted.
It's not that Li Ke is bragging. The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and a series of mountain ranges, I really don't know who is helping and blocking whom.
Not to mention the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the Hengduan Mountains in Yunnan are a plain connected to the Sichuan Basin. Try again.
"It goes without saying that I came here to do business in Persia. Since I met Zamp on the way, let's meet and continue chatting about our business." Li Ke smiled. He spoke.
"What do you mean, Your Highness?" Songtsen Gampo was stunned for a moment, and then asked quickly.
"I wonder how Zamp's current battle situation is?" Li Ke asked.
"The Harsha Dynasty is not worth mentioning at all. Our army has already reached the city of Rajgir in the west. According to the current progress, it is only a matter of time before we capture the city of Rajgir. Given time, we can capture the entire Harsha Dynasty. It’s not a problem.” Songtsen Gampo thought about it and didn’t hide it.
The main reason is that it is impossible for the Tang Dynasty's army to come here all the way. This is his world, Songtsan Gampo, so naturally he is not afraid.
"I have a suggestion. Zamp can listen to it. Regardless of Zamp's choice or not, I will definitely not interfere." Li Ke said with a smile.
"Your Highness, please speak." Songtsen Gampo said quickly.
"We must despise the enemy strategically and pay attention to the enemy tactically." Li Ke said lightly.
Songtsen Gampo was familiar with Central Plains culture, so of course he understood what this sentence meant, but even though he understood it, he was also a little confused: "I wonder what your highness meant?"
"I think you should take it easy, Zamp." Li Ke said.
Songtsen Gampo was stunned for a moment and asked him to accept it? Does this mean that he should stop attacking the Harsha Dynasty? The problem is that the combat effectiveness of the Harsha Dynasty's soldiers is getting worse and worse, and they are constantly fleeing, and the defense line is constantly moving back. If we don't pursue them at this time, when will we pursue them? Is it possible to wait for the enemy to slow down?
After hesitating for a while, Songtsen Gampo simply told Li Ke all these situations. Anyway, Li Ke was here, but it was impossible for the Tang Dynasty's army to come, and the impact on them would be minimal. The most important point is that Li Ke followed From another perspective, it’s his sponsor father.
If he didn't have Li Ke's support materials, he wouldn't be able to win every battle here, so he must listen to what the sponsor's father said.
"It is true that Zanpu said that if you continue to advance now, Zanpu, the Harsha Dynasty will indeed be unable to resist it. But Zanpu, don't you think the territory you control now is large enough? And with so many territories, There must be a lot of people in the Harsha Dynasty, right? Zanpu, are you sure you can control them all 100%?"
"The land here is fertile and the terrain is flat. Just the food grown on the plains in these places can feed the entire Tibetan population."
"And if you continue to advance westward, in order to maintain the current defense line, your troops will be spread thinner and thinner. Once a certain place is suddenly counterattacked by the enemy, it will form a chain reaction. Everything in the early stage will be obtained after you get it. It will all be lost at once.”
"So the best option at the moment is to stop right there after capturing the city of Rajgir. This will give the enemy a chance to breathe, but in fact it also gives Zampu a chance to repair and digest these territories."
"With the fighting power of the Harsha Dynasty, what if we can give them a breather? The most important thing is, Zanpu, you took over the location of the mouths of these two rivers. Zanpu, you asked people to build docks at the mouths of the sea. Then my fleet can arrive here from Guangzhou, and a large ship can transport more supplies than what can be transported on land, and the speed is much faster." Li Ke pointed at the huge ship at his feet and said.
Songtsen Gampo took a deep breath and then began to think deeply. He had to say that what King Qin said made sense. He has acquired enough land. If all these lands are planted, it will be enough to feed the entire Tubo, so he will have no higher demand for land.
The larger the territory, the more troops it needs. However, Tubo currently wants to train more soldiers, which will take time!
Indeed, the enemy needs time to repair himself, and Tibet also needs time to repair itself.
The combat effectiveness of the Harsha Dynasty cannot be increased so quickly, but Tubo only needs to repair it for a year or two and completely swallow up this place, and then it will always wait for an opportunity to annex the entire Harsha Dynasty.
"Thank you for the advice, Your Highness! What Your Highness said is absolutely true. If it hadn't been for His Highness's reminder, I almost made a big mistake! Ruining this great situation! Then after we capture the city of Rajgir, we will start to use this city as a benchmark to set up a defense line. When the time comes I will have people build a port where the river exits.”
"Well, where this river flows into the sea, a river delta is formed. Give this largest island to me, Datang. In this case, I can send people to build a port here, and by the way, I can send people to this place for a long time. Supplies, by the way, let me have a nice word with my father, because this can be regarded as opening up the territory for the Tang Dynasty, and then I will be able to sell you more supplies." Li Ke first asked someone to bring over a map, and then pointed After the Ganges and Brahmaputra rivers converged, several oasis islands were formed at the mouth of the sea.
Songtsen Gampo took a look. He had been to the terrain there, and the Jiangxin Continents were not big. He nodded and agreed without even hesitating: "No problem, then I will give this place to His Highness. Since It’s a gift to His Majesty, so how can you be so stingy? The Jiang Xinzhou that your Highness mentioned here was all given to the Tang Dynasty.”
Songtsen Gampo didn't care about that little bit of land. The most indispensable thing on this continent now was land.
And what can we do with such a little space?
"Okay! Zanpu is really generous. In this case, I can't be stingy. I will give you a thousand sets of Mingguang Armor!" Li Ke waved his hand and said directly.
Shang Xiang next to him wanted to stop him when he Zanpu generously gave a large piece of land to the Tang Dynasty, but when he heard that Li Ke opened his mouth and said a thousand sets of Mingguang armor, he stopped immediately. They Tubo want to build these thousand sets of Mingguang Armor... It will take at least thousands of people to build them for more than half a year!
And the King of Qin just opened his mouth and gave it away!
So what if all those lands were given to Datang?
"Thank you, Your Highness!" Songtsan Gampo saluted quickly with a look of joy on his face.
"You're welcome. Since it's your place, I'm not stingy. In this way, you don't have to spend money to build the port. I'll let it be built! Then you can just come here to buy things." Li Ke waved his hand.
