Li Sheng continued, "Originally, when the Tang Dynasty destroyed Silla and Baekje, the name was somewhat insufficient."
"Ordinarily, if the Tang Dynasty only used troops against Goguryeo, the name would be very simple. The Goguryeo people went south to clear grass valleys and plundered the people east of the Tang Dynasty countless times. Of course they had to punish the people."
"But in addition to that, we also wiped out Silla and Baekje, and obtained their seaports and fishery resources. This part is logically not a problem. After all, opening up borders and survival are always the themes... But without a name, it will not work after all.
beautiful."
"That……"
Wu Meiniang was a little confused, and then she saw Li Sheng smile slightly.
"It depends on whether they work hard and whether they want to restore the country. As long as they make some random moves to disgust the Tang Dynasty, then the next step... the Tang Dynasty will have enough reasons to clean up Silla and Baekje.
population.”
After hearing this, Wu Meiniang was suddenly enlightened and looked at Li Sheng with eyes... incomparable reverence!
This idea is a perfect Zhuge Liang-level ingenious plan. No...
Perhaps even after Zhuge Liang was resurrected, he could not have thought of such a powerful plan as the young master's words.
The pattern is higher than that of Wuhou, it is no joke.
However, in this way, Wu Meiniang was relieved about the issue of the two female slaves sent by the Japanese country leaking secrets, but she was worried about Li Sheng himself again, and she looked at Li Sheng for a long time...
Li Sheng couldn't help but be shocked when he saw this, "What's wrong, Mei Niang? Is there anything else you don't understand?"
Then Wu Meiniang shook her head with a low expression, and then suddenly pounced on Li Sheng...
After a while, Wu Meiniang leaned beside Li Sheng's ear and said angrily, "I only care about the safety of the young master during this trip..."
Li Sheng couldn't laugh or cry. He patted Wu Meiniang and said amusedly, "Then you are overthinking. The suzerain state of the countries in the Western Regions is the Turks. Now that the Turks are finished, the rest will not be able to achieve anything."
When her young master said this, Wu Meiniang felt a little relieved. But then again...
After Li Sheng sent Wu Meiniang away, he also showed an inexplicable expression.
Indeed... what I just said is true. After the fall of the Turks, the countries or tribes that relied on the Turks and followed them to make trouble in the Western Regions have now become stragglers. According to the historical situation, it is indeed not a cause for concern.
But then again, the situation is different now. Rome exists now.
For some reason, Rome managed to acquire the science and technology of the Tang Dynasty...
That's all. A ZTE master emerged from a key country and applied all these sciences and technologies into various productive forces.
As a result, Rome will not be easy to deal with, and the problem is not just Rome.
Because Rome is now promoting the decentralization of science and technology everywhere, and the countries, forces, and national strength that have various conflicts of interest and disputes with the Tang Dynasty, whether overt or covert, are also quietly increasing...
Of course, Li Sheng's speculation shouldn't be that exaggerated.
The reason why Rome traveled thousands of miles to support Goguryeo regardless of the cost was undoubtedly to disgust the Tang Dynasty.
Supporting Goguryeo is not the purpose, it is disgusting the Tang Dynasty. For this purpose, the Romans are not good people. On the contrary, Li Sheng remembers clearly that this group of people in history...
It may not be objective enough to say that they are completely unconscionable, but it is quite worthy of the moral character of these unscrupulous people.
Of course, such a group of people would not do charity everywhere, so Li Sheng did not panic. There should be very few forces that have received technical support, updated armaments, or greatly increased food production.
but……
The Western Regions are a bit sensitive. The Tang Dynasty was very worried about the Turks. Even compared to Goguryeo, the problem of Turks was much more urgent. After all...
Coming from the Western Regions to attack Chang'an is obviously much easier than coming from Goguryeo!
In this case, the Western Region is of course a place that must be carefully explored.
Tubo is not enough to cause trouble, Kucha is not enough to be in trouble, Gaochang and Tuyuhun are not enough to be in trouble.
But this group of thieves now has a high probability of getting help from the Romans, so it becomes a problem. And...
Li Sheng just thought that if Rome suddenly revived and had such a strong strategic vision to support Goguryeo, then he could guess that this guy might be in a state of "advice from an expert".
And since this is the case... then the support that Tuyuhun, Tubo, Gaochang, and Qiuci may receive will have to rise to a higher level, because these forces, like Goguryeo, have been fighting against each other for many years in the Tang Dynasty.
Enemy. And at the same time, it is still very close to Rome, the first is easy to control...
Second, while Datang continues to increase its troops to the northwest, it can exert influence and even cooperate with Rome to launch direct military operations against the military towns of Datang!
Specifically, this possibility is that the Romans' own legions attack the military town where Cheng Yaojin is still operating, and when Li Jingchi, the Anxi Governor, comes to aid Cheng Yaojin, they will send troops to attack Li Jing's Anxi Governor!
Or simply attack Lingzhou.
These two possibilities are almost the only possibilities for Tibet and other countries to cooperate with Rome to attack the Tang Dynasty, but... they are actually not low.
Of course, Li Sheng would not tell Wu Meiniang these things. For Li Sheng...
As long as Wu Meiniang knows what Wu Meiniang needs to know.
After pondering for a while, Li Sheng collected all the documents on yacht design on his desk, put them into a pile and stuffed them into a wooden box.
Then, take out another wooden box containing documents and open it.
Another stack of documents.
Although this stack of documents and other documents are generally bound with thin iron nails, the binding of thin iron nails often has some flaws, mainly because the edges of the documents are not aligned and are relatively random.
However, the edges of this stack of documents are perfectly aligned, and there is no sign of "discrepancy". It is almost the same as the finished books on the market.
There were only two words on the cover of the album. When Li Sheng saw it, his eyes narrowed and focused.
artillery!
Since returning from the Conquest of Goguryeo, Li Sheng has added further research and development and improvement of artillery to his agenda. Of course, Li Sheng today will not simply regard artillery as a "special" military asset -
Artillery has dominated the battlefields of later generations for who knows how many years, how can it be special!
Since it is something that will become popular in the world sooner or later, of course it must be developed with a prepared attitude.
And this time...
Li Sheng's expression is also much more serious than when he was working on other technologies, or when he was working on steam engines in the past.
The reason is very simple. Artillery technology can really be kept secret, and...
