Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

An Xinggui understands it, but this operation... Which king is willing to do this?this is not……

Of course, if there is really no choice, they will definitely choose this option. After all, if they don’t choose this option, they may be killed. No one wants to die, right?

"For the time being, let's formulate the plan in this way. Next, we need to wait for the information sent by the intelligence department. Before I came, the personnel of the intelligence department had prepared relevant information, but they are sorting it out. Let's wait for the information given by the intelligence department. They know more about the Western Regions." Li Daozong thought for a while and said.

"Understood." An Xinggui nodded. This time, the situation in the entire Western Region is very peaceful. The three khans of the Western Turks have stabilized the strength of the entire Western Turks within a certain range. If there is no chaos in the Western Turks, then the 36 countries in the Western Regions will not be in chaos.

But if the Western Turks are in chaos, the entire Western Regions will be completely in chaos.

In other words, their strategy should either not move, or if they want to move, they will sweep over with a thunderbolt, otherwise, what will be left behind will be disasters.

After Li Daozong and An Xinggui waited in Suoyang City for three days, all the information from the Datang Intelligence Department was sent over, and Li Daozong immediately gathered all the generals to hold a military meeting.

The current generals are: Li Daozong, An Xinggui, Niu Jinda, Xue Wanjun, Xue Wanche, Li Daliang, An Shengan.

Li Daozong and An Xinggui read the information first, but when the two of them read the information, their expressions were a little distorted. This...is it true?But since this information was sent by the Ministry of Intelligence, it means that this information must be true.

This……

"Everyone, pass it on first." Li Daozong finally handed over the information in his hand, and then he and An Xinggui opened Li Ke's letter.

There was also a letter from Li Ke sent by the Ministry of Intelligence.

"Li Dudu and Liang Guogong personally said: The 20-year strategic plan for the future of Datang to enter the Western Regions is also an important strategy related to the complete disintegration of the threat of nomads in the future of Datang. Therefore, you will receive unprecedented support. But again, your follow-up troops will not be very large. Because of the current situation in Datang, a single trigger will affect the whole body."

"Once the Western Regions attack, the Xue Yantuo tribe in the Eastern Turks and Goguryeo in the Northeast may launch rebellions and actions."

"Therefore, the Tang Dynasty needs to reserve enough troops to prevent these places from invading the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, the two of you will serve as Ministers of Economics and Strategy of the Western Regions and be responsible for implementing the entire strategy of the Western Regions."

"The first step is to plan and advance to the Yili River to control all the main passages from the West Kunlun Mountains to the Western Regions. After you control several important passes, find a suitable city in the local area. Follow-up craftsmen will continue to follow up and build important cities in the local area. stronghold of the city."

"The second step of the plan is to assist Ashina Shilu to control the entire Western Turks and defeat Yipidulu."

"The third step of the plan is to annex the entire Western Turks and push the border of the Tang Dynasty to the Caspian Sea area."

"The first step of the plan is the most important strategic node, and it will become an important step for Datang to set foot in the Western Regions. The plan will be implemented for five years. It includes the establishment of traffic lines and the survey of important roads through the old Silk Road. construction, and the establishment of important resource construction channels.”

"In addition, promote the popularization of all cultures such as Datang Mandarin and characters, weights and measures, and the popularization of this aspect will be assisted by all caravans."

"You should have read the information given to you by the intelligence department. Ashina Shilu is actually one of us. His main army is Murong Shun and the [-] elite cavalry that Xizhou once sent. The territory they control can be regarded as It is Datang's territory."

"So you have the right to dispatch their troops to cooperate with your actions to a certain extent."

"The last is Gaochang. Ju Wentai is quite ambitious, but he is not very courageous. Yipiduulu supports him behind the scenes. If he knows part of my Tang's strategy in Tubo, Ju Wentai will definitely attack with the support of Yipiduulu. Yixi State (Yiwu)."

"After taking Gaochang, the two of you can take control of all the countries along the way on the grounds that Yipidulu seriously threatens our Tang Dynasty's trade with the Western Regions! If you don't follow, you two will deal with it yourself. I only want one result. In the Western Regions, I will I don’t want to hear a second voice other than Datang.”

"As for the gains and losses, for the same reason, since he surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, let him quickly resolve the trade route between the Silk Road of the Tang Dynasty and the Western Regions, and tell him that if the war between him and Yipidulu leads to our trade If it cannot be done, then he will have to make compensation for it. The compensation is the entire area east of the West Kunlun Mountains, that is, all the territory that has lost its current territory.”

"If he wants a new territory, he can join forces with Ashina Shili to attack Yipidulu."

"As for the fact that Ashina Shilu missed Xili when Yipi Dulu was defeated, that was a civil war in Western Turks and had nothing to do with my Tang Dynasty."

"As for the follow-up plan, we will wait until the follow-up is completed."

"I wish the two generals all the best."

After reading this letter, Li Daozong and An Xinggui were speechless for a long time. Your Highness, your plan is really...Have you already included all the things that will happen in a few years?The point is that although the plan here seems to have only a rough idea, the two of them know that there must be many people behind it to complete it.

What's more, this Ashina Shili?The power that His Highness created?

One of the three great khans of the Western Turks!

"This... General Li, General An, is this true?" The generals who circulated the information below were also a little confused. They had heard about the current situation before they came, especially when they were about to have possible enemies.

But no one knew that there was such a big helper behind them!

Has one-third of the Western Turks already fallen into the hands of His Highness?this……

"Of course it is true. Let's first study the main pass we want to capture." Li Daozong said directly.

"Among them, there are three passes near Yishule Kingdom, one of which starts from Khotan Kingdom (Hotian) and stretches all the way (Houpanlong Ancient Road), enters the Western Turkic territory, and then turns to Tianzhu and other places."

"The second route departs from Shache Kingdom (Shache County), north of the road from Khotan (later Karasu Port) and then enters the Pamirs."

"The third way is to go all the way along the Kizil River (later Kizilsu River) and also enter Central Asia."

Li Daozong pointed to the three routes on the military map that Li Ke took out, and said that many of the names on it were named by Li Ke, and Li Daozong didn't know what the place was called, but it didn't matter. what is it call.

"Xue Wanjun, Xue Wanche."

"The end is here!"

"Do you two have the confidence to lead an army of [-] down the Kunlun Mountains until you take these three passes?" Li Daozong looked at them and asked.

"Have!"
