Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

Li Ke's words made Li Shimin and Li Chengqian look sideways.

"What do you mean?" Li Shimin looked at him with some doubts, "Is there any threatening place around my Datang?"

"No, except for one Goguryeo." Li Ke shook his head.

"Then you are?"

"That's it, dad, come over here, brother, I'll open the map and tell you." Li Ke pointed to the back and said.

"Ah, Aye, big brother and third brother, I won't go, you talk about business, I'll go see my mother." Li Tai ran away decisively without saying a word.

"Go, go." Li Shimin waved his hand.

Li Tai ran away without any hesitation.

The three of them were left speechless.

"Look at you scaring the child, you will have a psychological shadow." Li Chengqian was a little helpless.

"Brother, I also have a psychological shadow, or you can help me." Li Ke said pitifully.

"Get out, I'm still here, hurry up and get down to business, what do you want to say?" Li Shimin glared at him and said.

Li Ke: "..." I think you play too much mahjong, I must sue Wei Zheng.

Li Ke took Li Shimin and Li Chengqian to a world map hanging behind. This map was made by Li Ke in the past few days.

But it is not a complete world map, but almost the entire Eurasian continent, including East Asia, Southeast Asian islands, and north-central Africa.The Americas, Australia and other places do not exist, and it is meaningless to list them at this time.

This world map is much more complete than the previous Datang World Map.

Both Li Shimin and Li Chengqian looked at it in a daze. Not only was the topography very complete, but even the borders of the surrounding small countries were clearly visible.

"You want us to see this?" Li Shimin looked at Li Ke strangely and asked.

"Here." Li Ke picked up the wooden stick next to him and pointed to the location in the Middle East, "On this peninsula, a new country has risen. I call them Arabia. This place originally belonged to Sasanian Persia. The land, and Arabia, that is, the big cannibals are rapidly unifying the peninsula, and if they unify here, they will immediately conflict with Persia."

In Datang, the distinction between Persia and the big cannibals is not very clear. Of course, officially, the people of these two places will be distinguished in the Datang, but if the people in these places don’t say it, the Datang is actually not very clear. Their respective boundaries are even more blurred.

"Father, you should be very clear that such a force that can quickly unify a place like this is very strong in the early stage, and Sassanid Persia has existed for hundreds of years, which is considered to be the end of the dynasty. Sassanid Persia has it all."

"So the combat effectiveness of the two sides is incomparable." Li Ke quickly introduced the local situation.

"What does this have to do with us?" Li Shimin was a little confused. This is thousands of miles away from Datang. What does this have to do with Datang?

"Of course it has something to do with it. I plan to set up the Persian Protectorate in the future." Li Ke said quickly.

Li Shimin: "..."

Good guy, your ambition is bigger than me as an old man. If Datang hits that place... Looking at the map of the stretching territory, it can be said to be unprecedented.

"Did you forget something?" Li Shimin looked at Li Ke helplessly.

"What?" Li Ke was taken aback for a moment.

"These places." Li Shimin took another wooden stick and drew a large circle on Xinjiang, northern Afghanistan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, and Kazakhstan in later generations, "Have you forgotten the Western Turks? Do not treat Western Turks as human beings."

"Hey, West Turkic is a paper tiger, it can be broken with just one poke." Li Ke waved his hand indifferently.

To be honest, compared with the Eastern Turks led by Xieli and others, the Western Turks led by Ashina are a bit worse. The main reason is that the Western Turks have too large a territory, and the population is scattered. A small country in Western Turks.

For example, the current 36 countries in the Western Regions actually surrender to the Western Turks. Oh, Gaochang has not yet, but they also rely on the Western Turks, with the Western Turks backing them.

In addition, the distances between the tribes of the West Turks are actually far away. Thinking about the territory of the West Turks from the later Xinjiang to the Caspian Sea, this means that the tribes of the West Turks are too scattered.

It is very difficult to gather a large number of troops, and they are so scattered, and many of these places have lush aquatic plants, so their combat effectiveness is actually not strong.

In fact, the nomads are the same as the Central Plains dynasty. They have choices, but no one wants to fight.

The Central Plains dynasty has always suffered from the nomads. The main threat is the erosion of the nomads who lived north of the line of Inner Mongolia in later generations. These places were bitter cold places in ancient times, and the winter was very long. The water and grass are luxuriant, but once it snows heavily in winter, cattle and sheep are extremely easy to freeze to death.

Think about the fact that the average temperature in later generations has increased so much, and there is often a foot of snow in these places, and it was even more cruel in ancient times.

So the nomads in this place are more sturdy, and there is a rich Central Plains dynasty next to them, of course they are constantly plundering.

The places occupied by the Western Turks are not so populated and sparsely populated, so the nomads here have less desire to fight.

This is also the reason why the Xiongnu could still become the whip of God after being driven here by the big man. It can only be said that the East Asian monsters came out of the house, and they were simply explosive hammers in other places.

For example, in the later generations of Mongolia, Mongolia’s achievements will not be repeated. After the collapse of the Yuan Empire, several Khanates left in the West, and the descendants of the Khanates, even died later than the Ming Dynasty, such as the third brother next door. Mughal kingdom.

What Li Ke said made Li Shimin and Li Chengqian a little speechless. If you look at the territory of the Western Turks, don't you think it's scary?You can still ignore it.You know, a Tuyuhun dragged the Tang Dynasty to death.

"You can't be careless, and you don't want to think about how many years Tuyuhun has delayed us." Li Shimin said angrily.

"Tuyuhun dragged us because a considerable part of Tuyuhun's land is located on a plateau. If they are in a plain area, you can try it." Li Ke shook his head and said, and Tuyuhun jumped like this, not because it was not long after the founding of the Tang Dynasty, and it has been in the country all the time. War with Eastern Turks.

"Okay, then what do you mean by paying attention to these two?" Li Shimin didn't worry about the Western Turks, but wanted to know what Li Ke wanted to do.

"I want to sell supplies to Sasanian Persia and control Arabia." Li Ke expressed his thoughts.

"Selling supplies..." Li Shimin frowned, "You mean armor and weapons?"
