First of all, the Tang Dynasty had a vast territory, and the entire China was a vast land.
With such a huge border, all of a sudden the main force of the Imperial Guard is no longer here.
The key point is that Datang's kind of development was completely based on social axioms--expanding territories reasonably and legally in the form of commerce, that is to say, doing everything possible to make profits while avoiding enmity as much as possible.
For this reason, this kind of development often cannot play the role of exporting conflicts and rallying people's hearts. When the army is out, it is completely difficult to say whether anything will happen in China.
Regardless of political reasons, even if we only talk about transportation capacity.
How could the Tang Dynasty have the ability to transport hundreds of thousands of troops to America?
This is the same as direct immigration - if this kind of thing could be done, there wouldn't be so much trouble when I first explored the map to explore the Americas.
The key point is that these more than 20 steel warships are too embarrassing. They do have combat power at sea, but if they really want to wipe out the Roman power in America, these ships are undoubtedly not enough to transport the army.
This difficulty.
Changsun Wuji just made a simple analysis and directly explained the entire strategic situation in front of him.
This piercing insight has no effect.
Not to mention Li Er being angry, Changsun Wuji himself had a wry smile on his face!
This is the same as Goguryeo. You can bring out talented people in large numbers, but if the plate is too small, no matter how strong the organization is, it will not be able to exert a truly powerful force.
To fight for the world, the quality and quantity of the army are indispensable. Otherwise, what is the purpose of fighting for the world? That is called warlord separatism.
This day brings about a wave of inner court memories.
In fact, Li Er himself had a premonition that the military issue at sea was also a military issue. He was also a former Tiance admiral after all, but he did not come up with any clever plans.
Well, of course the level of these ministers under my command is also high, but for me, the main thing is to "get the answers" at critical moments, the so-called brainstorming.
Everyone is at the same level. Since they are all exhausted, these guys obviously won't come up with ideas all at once. However, according to Li Er's idea, even if there is no clever plan in this wave of inner court meetings, they can still come up with it.
Isn't it a bit of a trick?
After all, everyone has been around for so many years at such a young age!
It turns out that this is really a dead end at the beginning, and the maze doesn't even let you walk around!
If there are some folk remedies, Li Er is not a commander who can't afford it. Since there are only folk remedies, optimization may also be a good idea.
For example, when we fought against the Romans in Eastern Europe and implemented a "security war" strategy, this was actually a "crooked move" in a sense.
But because the musket was finally invented, the Tang Dynasty was far better at this "security warfare" than the Romans, and its tactics became very powerful and flexible. Therefore, it was able to continuously consume the Romans' national power and even force them to
Into a desperate situation!
This shows a truth, as long as the crooked move is done correctly and cannot be copied by the opponent.
Then, tactical tricks can eventually be transformed into strategic advantages and even strategic pillars.
At this point, it can be said that Li Er clearly understands the three flavors.
However.
In fact, this is what Li Er thought this time. Even if it was a clumsy or cumbersome method, it didn't matter. As long as the Roman maritime military presence could be eliminated, then the matter would be settled.
However this.
Li Er thought with a dark face for a while, then asked angrily, "Since the Romans are colluding with the Southeast Asian countries, if I think the Imperial Guards of the Tang Dynasty are not good enough, I will directly crush the Southeast Asian countries and see who else the Romans can collude with!"
"
Li Er was also furious at this moment.
but.
When he said this, the following ministers did not react at all. They always lowered their heads and said nothing, not even looking at each other. There was only a very reluctant sound,
"Your Majesty, this."
"Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty, this."
Li Er was also stunned when he saw it, Ma De, you can't think of a solution, so why don't you say anything and pretend to be an expert?
What about this and that? Isn’t this method possible?
Li Er couldn't help but frown.
For Li Er, in world affairs, war is for peace, and peace is for war.
Only through peace can we unite people and have the cards to fight war - and correspondingly, in order to obtain peace, people cannot escape war!
These are all things that complement each other.
Now that it's been some time since the start of the Zhenguan New Year, could it be these guys?
Peace lasts for a long time, are you afraid of war?
Li Er frowned immediately when he thought of this possibility!
This was not because Li Er was deliberately trying to cause trouble, but because he had seriously considered this option.
That's right, conquering the Southeast Bay is not a frivolous rhetoric, but a real large-scale war.
This may not be considered a full-scale war for Datang, but it is definitely a huge consumption. After all, Southeast Island's chassis is still that big.
Such a big place.
The Tang Dynasty is still competing with the Romans, so it needs to seize any opportunity to recharge and ensure that the treasury is always in a state of plenty.
It must be a lot of pressure to suddenly start a fight with Dongnanchao, but Li Er doesn't think so!
Competing in the world is inherently stressful!
If this is the only option, then no matter how great the pressure on the treasury is, how can we not do it?
How could the Tang Dynasty give the opportunity in vain and watch the Romans develop in America!
Yes, what the Romans did did have long-term hidden dangers, but this may not be good news for the Tang Dynasty.
The power established by the Romans in the Americas may be over, but by that time, Rome's population bloodline will have already immigrated, colonized, and even spread out in the Americas.
The Tang Dynasty established a country in a heroic manner to calm the troubled times. This is definitely not enough. After conquering America, it can massacre the Roman immigrants.
Then, wouldn’t it mean that America would still be given a share of the pie by the Romans?
Of course, by then the Romans' strategy of plotting the entire Americas would have been completely shut down, and the competition with the Tang Dynasty would have become even more obvious. But before that, the population of the Romans had still increased.
, and has spread all over the world.
A large part of the country in the future of the Tang Dynasty was still occupied by the Romans.
Isn’t this still blood loss?
Therefore, Li Er really doesn't want to wait for time to solve it slowly, let alone.
Does "solving it slowly" definitely solve it? Often this is just a fool's self-comfort! In fact, no problem is solved.
You didn't do anything. Could it be that the Romans would suddenly become kind-hearted and start fasting and chanting Buddha's name?
