"So those empires have no choice whether they are willing or unwilling."

"Once they choose to refuse, they will blatantly defy the will of the alliance, and those who disobey will be regarded as traitors!"

"There are so many members in the alliance, and there are always those who covet them. Once they give other coveters an excuse, when the time comes, several countries will launch an attack together. His Majesty said... what will be their results?"

Li Shimin's expression turned serious.

He thought for a while before saying: "Death is inevitable!"

"Most of the members of the alliance are not small countries that are too strong, and the resistance of small countries is too weak. It would be okay if there is only one opponent, but if four or five opponents attack together, they will have no resistance at all. When the time comes, it will be inevitable The result of national subjugation cannot be avoided!”

Shen Lian nodded and said with a smile: "That's the truth!"

"So, Your Majesty, do you think those emperors would have any other choice when faced with such an ending?"

Li Shimin shook his head.

"As long as they want to keep their empire, they can only follow the general trend."

The corners of Shen Lian's lips raised: "So, what else does Your Majesty have to worry about?"

"We are not as sincere as they are, and their sincerity is worthless."

"What we need is for them to be obedient. As long as they do it, that's fine!"

"And this is the purpose of my efforts to promote the alliance of nations!"

"If the Tang Dynasty wants to become the overlord of the world, it cannot do everything by itself. No matter how large the population of the Tang Dynasty is, it cannot help but consume it like that."

"But it's different with the alliance."

"As long as we tie them up with interests, secretly control some small countries, and absolutely obey the orders of the Tang Dynasty when voting, then everything will be safe!"

"At that time, the entire alliance will be my Datang's weapon. We can fight wherever we want, and there will definitely be no problems."

Li Shimin listened to Shen Lian's words and looked at Shen Lian's confident smile, and he was very happy in his heart.

His vision was a little narrow.

Also because the alliance had just been established, he didn't have much time to think about the alliance.

Only then did he understand after hearing Shen Lian's reminder.

It turns out that this is the real purpose of the alliance!

Doesn't this mean that from now on, Datang has one more powerful thug who doesn't charge any fees?

The more Li Shimin thought about it, the happier he became.

The more I think about it, the more plausible it seems.

His eyes are getting brighter and brighter.

If other countries are allowed to take action and he reaps the benefits, that will naturally make him happiest.

Nanzhao is not a very weak country. If you want to destroy it, you will definitely sacrifice a lot of soldiers.

But now, with an alliance taking action, they can share the risks and help themselves destroy Nanzhao. This is definitely very exciting!

He looked at Shen Lian and said with a smile: "Shen Lian, yes, this is a really good idea."

"There is such a good alliance that can be used. Indeed, there is no reason not to use it."

"Otherwise, our early investment will really be in vain."

When Shen Lian saw Li Shimin, he finally understood the meaning of the alliance and smiled.

He said: "That's it, so dealing with Nanzhao must be done!"

"Besides, the alliance has just been established. As the saying goes, it takes three steps for a new official to take office, let alone such an alliance."

"So the alliance also needs to establish its authority and let other countries know how powerful the alliance is!"

"So, at this time, don't the two parties hit it off immediately?"

"I think that as long as His Majesty proposes to deal with Nanzhao, those envoys will definitely support it."

"Of course... Your Majesty cannot say that Datang wanted to deal with the Beidou Society, so we dealt with Nanzhao. Your Majesty only needs to say that the Alliance is not easily bullied."

"Now that they have bullied the alliance, the alliance will definitely fight back."

"As long as His Majesty says so, I believe... there is no reason for other envoys to object."

Li Shimin thought for a while, then nodded heavily.

"You are right, let alone the alliance, even I want to destroy Nanzhao when you mention it!"

Shen Lian smiled and said, "Then there will be no problem."

"Your Majesty, you can find an opportunity to hold an alliance meeting in the next few days."

"We directly proposed the war against Nanzhao at the alliance meeting. Each member does not need to send too many people. Each member can send only 10,000 people!"

"Ninety alliance countries, that is, an army of 900,000 people. As long as the people who lead them are not stupid, they can destroy Nanzhao."

Li Shimin nodded.

"Okay, I will issue a notice tomorrow to convene the first meeting of the Alliance of All Nations. I will raise this matter at the meeting and let them vote. As long as the number of votes exceeds 70%, that's fine."

"The problem shouldn't be big. This is when the alliance is most united, so your Majesty doesn't have to worry."

"Your Majesty, there is another thing that needs to be done at the meeting."

Li Shimin looked at Shen Lian and said, "What's the matter?"

Shen Lian narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Who will lead the troops?"

"These 900,000 people are not a small force. We must take them into our own hands."

"Conquering Nanzhao is one thing. Maybe in Nanzhao, we will encounter strong resistance from the Beidou Society. At that time, we will need the role of a large army."

"Don't forget, our goal is not only to destroy Nanzhao, but more importantly, to attack the Beidou Society."

"Once you meet a member of the Beidou Club, you must do whatever it takes and not let anyone go!"

"But the commanders-in-chief of other countries may not be determined to attack the Beidou Society. Maybe they will retreat in the face of the strong resistance of the Beidou Society."

"So, we must control the army in our own hands."

"In this case, even if we encounter the Beidou Society, no matter how big the obstacle is, there won't be any problems."

"This attack on Nanzhao is basically equivalent to a formal declaration of war on the Beidou Society."

"So, if you don't seize every opportunity to eliminate the Beidou Society's forces at this time, you will definitely suffer backlash in the future!"

Li Shimin understood what Shen Lian meant.

He took a deep breath, pondered for a moment, and said, "Who do you think is better at leading the army?"

Shen Lian looked at Li Shimin and said in a deep voice: "I recommend someone, he is qualified and the most suitable!"

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Who?"

"Hedong, Xue Rengui!"

"Xue Rengui?"

Li Shimin was shocked.

He frowned and said: "Although Xue Rengui is indeed very good, he doesn't have the experience to lead so many armies, right? Let him go... I'm a little worried."

It's not that Li Shimin doesn't trust Xue Rengui, it's just that Xue Rengui is too young.

The main thing is that I have no experience!

This can sometimes be fatal.

But Shen Lian said firmly: "No one can do it except him!"

In the Imperial Palace, Tai Chi Palace.

Li Shimin was very surprised when he heard Shen Lian's words.

He didn't understand why Shen Lian valued Xue Rengui so much.

Although Xue Rengui led people to rescue him before, Shen Lian also looked at Xue Rengui in a different light.

But Xue Rengui is still too young no matter what.

And the most important thing is that Xue Rengui only led 3,000 people before.

But this time, once he takes command of the alliance army, it will be an army of 900,000 people!

The gap between 900,000 people and 3,000 people is really too big.

Li Shimin was really worried about a person with no experience at all.

It's not that he doesn't trust Xue Rengui, nor that he doesn't value Xue Rengui.

On the contrary, Li Shimin valued Xue Rengui very much and felt that Xue Rengui would definitely become a general of the Tang Dynasty military in the future.

But that is also the future, not the present.

Therefore, he did not understand Qin Wenyuan's words.
