"Your Majesty, it's easy to start a war!" Gongsun Wuji gritted his teeth and said: "With only one transfer order, without even the need for reinforcements from the court, Longxi County Duke can lead his troops directly.

But there is a reputation for sending troops. We just issued a statement a few days ago. Even if we want to send troops, there must be a reason, right?

How long has it been since Qin Mo went to sea to establish his country?

Just over a year.

How big a country can you build?

If it were said that the Ming Dynasty had one navy and tens of thousands of people, who would believe it?

So I thought it would be better to test a few things first.

Force them to take action and see where their bottom line is.

Once we take action, we will have the upper hand.

At that time, he said that Qin Mo had raised a navy privately and supported his own troops. In this way, everyone was convinced.

It can also arouse public indignation, and people’s hearts can be used!”

Li Shilong looked at Gongsun Wuji and said, this is indeed a solution, and starting a war hastily will lead to an unknown outcome.

The war between great powers is no joke.

Li Cungong looked at Gongsun Wuji. This old dog is really smart. He looked at sixty and became more mature as he got older.

Although it is still a slow-down strategy, it is indeed the best strategy to proceed step by step.

"Wei Chen seconded the proposal!"

"I second the proposal!"

Not long after, all six people had expressed their stance.

Li Shilong said: "This is not enough. Although Li Sixun is powerful, he is not necessarily Qin Mo's opponent. Give Nanfan an imperial edict and let Shuang'an lead troops to support Li Sixun!"

Gongsun Wuji trembled all over, my dear, you are asking your brother-in-law to beat your brother-in-law.

"The Supreme Emperor Shengming!" everyone said.

"Everyone, go down!" Li Shilong waved his hand, "Honglu Temple didn't make any achievements this time, but it didn't lose the power of my Daqian. Liu Gui is also very good. The Ming Dynasty cannot be recognized by Daqian, how dare he claim the throne!

Go down and rest first, you will be rewarded later!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After everyone retreated, Li Shilong said to Ah Si: "Did you see clearly?"

Ah Si hesitated for a while, "They seem a little scared!"

"They are not a little afraid, they are very afraid!" Li Shilong gritted his teeth and said: "Qin Mo's power is too great. It is powerful all over the world, especially in the Western Regions. If word spread that Qin Mo established a country on its own, you know what it would mean.

?"

Ah Si shook his head.

"Those people in the Western Region are afraid of Qin Mo to the core. If Qin Mo wants to take the Western Region, it will only be a matter of words.

So, don't be careless.

Even if Qin Mo's words are true and he will not go against Da Gan, Qin Ming cannot be allowed to develop in the Western Regions.

If you think about it, after several years of overseas development, Qin Ming has achieved a level that is not inferior to that of Dagan, and even surpassed Dagan in some aspects.

If we give them a few more years, is there any hope for Daqian?

In the future, when I am gone and that boy has no restraint, how can you be his opponent?

Just rely on these people, okay?

Therefore, I teach you the third lesson: never allow your enemies to grow.

Ming Dynasty is not Beinu. The reason why I didn't fight Beinu immediately was because I knew Beinu had no room to grow.

Their upper limit is just that high.

Relying on the meager resources of the grassland, it is absolutely impossible to be Daqian's opponent.

But Ming Dynasty is different. Ming Dynasty is backed by huge national resources and has countless talents.

This provides the basis for competing with Dagan for hegemony.

You see, the Northwestern slaves were in the Western Region before and got a batch of weapons later. If Qin Mo hadn't been decisive, do you think the Northwest slaves would have been smoothly annexed by Dagan?"

"It's not going to go well!"

"That's right, not only will it not go smoothly, but it will also be very difficult!" Li Shilong sighed, "More than hundreds of thousands of people died in that battle. If we cannot attack for a long time, the Northwest slaves will completely gain a foothold, and they will have no choice but to continue. Accumulate strength to attack the northwest slaves.

The Northwest Slaves can threaten Tianxiang, Nanfan, and even the New North Slaves at any time.

Although it cannot reach the Central Plains, it can curb the development of Daqian. This is not something we can tolerate."

"My son, please be taught!" Ah Si stood up and bowed.

Li Shilong smiled and said, "You and I, father and son, are of one mind. No matter how big the difficulties are ahead, we will definitely be able to overcome them."

"I understand!" Ah Si clenched his fists. Now he finally understood why his father must fight against Ming Dynasty.

Because, how can we allow others to sleep soundly beside the couch?

...

On the way back, Li Cungong looked at the depressed Li Yongmeng and asked, "It didn't go well this time?"

"Not only did it not go well, I only met the fool, but no one else saw him. This clearly means that he wants to draw a clear line with me!" Li Yong said fiercely: "I really don't want to hit one of my own!"

"Be prepared, your Majesty is determined to start a war." Li Cungong sighed.

"Dad, why?"

"There is no reason. There is no reason between countries. There are only interests. No matter the friendship or relationship in the past, it can't influence your majesty." Li Cungong said: "We and Daqian will both prosper and suffer. Since If you want to fight, then go ahead and see what Qin Hanzi is capable of."

Seeing the expectant look on Li Cungong's face, Li Yongmeng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Dad, you can't beat me. You don't know how powerful the Ming Dynasty's weapons are. I'm a fool to save you."

Do you know how many divine cannons the fool took with him before he left?

There are a total of eight thousand statues, and each one is more powerful than our cannons!"

"How many?" Li Cungong took a breath, "Eight thousand?"

"Yes, Ming Dynasty has such strength, to a large extent, it is the foundation laid by Da Qian.

They borrowed supplies from all over the country and then shipped them overseas by sea.

Constantly searching for orphans and widows from various places, Nanyang, Wozhou, Gaoli, and the Western Regions, these places are the birthplaces of idiot immigrants.

This trip to the Western Regions was probably to establish a bridgehead in the Western Regions and to better purchase female slaves and young people.

It won't be long before the population of Ming Dynasty will exceed 20 million.

But Daqian doesn't have to worry about food, money, or land, and the system is better than Daqian.

There are not so many constraints.

Ninety percent of those who immigrated did not live a very good life. They went to the Ming Dynasty and had big houses, fertile land, money, and endless food. How could they not be grateful to the Ming Dynasty?

When a fool does something, he never decides on the first thought.

What you see now may be something he decided years ago.

Do you know how many hands he left?

Who dares to say that there are no fools in the palace?

How to fight a war?

It makes Ming Dynasty anxious, just in case..."

Li Yongmeng glanced back and withdrew his gaze, "Actually, what I said is right. He will never go against Da Gan while he is alive. Decades of prosperity are enough for Da Gan to develop more advanced weapons.

Now we have to take the risk to fight this battle. It would be fine if we win, but if we lose, the Western Region will suffer.

Think about Hanzi's prestige in the Western Regions. How many people dare to say no to Hanzi?

They can't even beat the Northwest slaves, but how can they beat the idiots?
