With Jiang Xiu's words, the second prince Jiang Lin also said, "easy before difficult. After swallowing the state of Wu and developing for a period of time, we can storm soldiers."
"Now our Qi is not only strong, but also rich. As long as we pull up 100000 strong troops in the territory of the state of Wu, we can fight the powerful gentry of Jingzhou in the Tang Dynasty."
"Jingzhou giants will certainly command those puppet kings and ministers to ask for help from Datang in the name of vassal states, but the wealth we spread can also feed a group of guys. The new capital upstarts of Datang Jizhou can let the state of Yue invade again and again for interests. What are we afraid of outside Datang?"
"The Tang emperor must be unable to mobilize troops to help defend the country. No matter how you think about it, it won't be too difficult."
……
There are many hawks in the state of Qi, but compared with Lin Ju, the leader of the state of Yue who wanted to replace Li Tang, this kind of toughness is not at the same level.
What is Lin Ju? It was nothing more than the powerful gentry of the Tang Dynasty. In order to earn huge profits, they sent knives, guns, armor, grain and so on to Lin Ju.
To put it bluntly, the thugs raised by the gentry and capital upstarts in Jizhou are the same as the bandits in Sanxian island outside Yangzhou. They are just thugs with more Vietnamese people, stronger military strength and a certain degree of autonomy and dignity.
Qi is self reliant. It is not only rich and strong, but also has all kinds of casting processes such as artillery, fire guns, armor and large ships.
One is raised by the exploiters at the top of the Tang Dynasty, which can raise more than 100000 troops. The other is self-reliance, can do everything by themselves, and can pull up a larger army at any time.
He also controlled the sea route between Shang and Tang Dynasties and made countless windfalls from the profits of sea trade.
Compared with Qi, Lin Ju is a middle brother.
It is nothing more than that the state of Qi is thousands of miles away from the South China Sea of Datang, and the state of Yue is in the northernmost border of Datang, almost close to the Arctic Circle of this planet. The distance between the two is too exaggerated, which leads to mutual fame and few direct exchanges.
Jiang Lin's words fell to the ground, but the third prince Jiang Chao suddenly said, "why do you have to aim at Wei or Zhou, and why don't you start from Ren Guo? I know that Wei and Zhou are easy to fight and have a large population... But if you move those two sides, you will inevitably disturb the Tang Dynasty and big business."
"Shang Tang and I are in the same vein. No matter what happens, it will not be small."
"On the contrary, I think it is not impossible to start with Ren and then expand from Ren to the East, all the way to the continent and replace Rome? At least Rome is all white, which is very different from my Chinese and Miao descent. We move Rome... Shang and Tang may not help Rome."
"In my opinion, if any of the three empires is most easily replaced, it is Rome."
The continental continent is in the northern hemisphere, and the Tianzhou continent where Da Shang is located is in the southern hemisphere. However, the direct sunlight in the southern hemisphere here is far less than that in Africa on earth, and even the degree of sunlight is less than that in South America.
For thousands of years, the appearance of Chinese and Miao people has not changed much in the big business, the great Tang Dynasty and various maritime countries.
Wei and Zhou are close to the Tang and Shang Dynasties, which has caused too much noise. Ren Guo is composed of a series of islands thousands of miles east of Qi. That island is not only small in size, but also inferior in number to Wei and Zhou. The whole Ren country has only one hundred islands and a total population of more than one million.
Seizing the state of Ren and continuing to expand to the northeast is the sea border close to Yangzhou overseas in the Tang Dynasty.
All the way to the East, you will meet the maritime countries between Tang and Rome.
On the side of the bed, how can others snore?
Even during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, Zhao Zheng, a strong man, left the earth with the ancestors of tianyuxing. They haven't heard this sentence, but who doesn't understand the truth?
As long as the emperors of the Shang and Tang empires are not fools, they must know some specific situations.
No matter whether they seized the state of Wei or the state of Zhou, they almost killed in the border of Datang and big business. Relying on modern sea trade, they can log into the territory of Shangtang in more than ten days at the fastest.
This is faster than Lin Ju, the leader of the state of Yue, leading his troops from the capital of the state of Yue to Liaodong County!
If you move there, no matter how you send the political strategists' children to lobby, no matter how you buy the traitors in Datang, there may be great future problems, and even lead the two empires to mediate the struggle for hegemony in the sea.
Once the state of Qi swallowed Wei or Zhou, the size and scale would soar. The whole tianyuxing had only a population of more than 100 million. The Shang, Tang and Rome had only 34, 45 million people respectively.
If the size of the state of Qi also goes straight to twenty or thirty million, it will become the fourth Empire almost in the blink of an eye. Coupled with the thriving and stronger posture of the state of Qi, the Tang Dynasty is in a deep quagmire. There is an overview of the Royal pill sooner or later.
It's hard to say that they attacked Wei and Zhou.
Jiang Chao, the third prince, really felt that he had swallowed Ren, a small country with a population of more than one million, and Ren was far away from both Shang and Tang Dynasties... They went east and killed Renzhou mainland, which was the right way.
"Over the years, I have also learned a lot about Rome. It seems that he is a centralized monarchy, which is better than the Tang Dynasty. The Roman emperor can pull out hundreds of thousands of elite at any time, but in fact, the civilians in the country are suffering and the people are unable to make a living... Otherwise, more and more civilians will not sail to sea to find new hope."
"On the other side of Rome, the emperor and the nobility ruled the world together, and the nobility was enfeoffed to the knight level. There was no limit to the exploitation of the bottom. His war power seemed to be very strong, but the people's popularity was far less than Li's reputation in the Tang Dynasty."
"Moreover, in the Tang Dynasty and the great merchants, there are generations of Mohist Mohists who have devoted everything to their ideals and accumulated countless fame, but there are not many Mohist children in Rome."
In the pre Qin period, there was a cultural event in which hundreds of schools of thought contended. What about western Rome? When their ancestors were brought out by the earth, they were still in the dispute between Monotheism and all kinds of heresy.
The Renaissance will not begin until hundreds of years after their ancestors left the earth
Western civilization in that period also had a glorious Roman Empire, but classes were basically controlled by the church.
The oppression of the people by the combination of divine power and monarchy is extremely cruel.
Even if the strong east and West who left the earth together had a good relationship, can we talk about the conflict of beliefs? It doesn't have to be changed. If you change, it's heresy.
Even if a hundred schools of thought contend in the eastern world, it has gradually spread far away and brought a lot of new ideas there, but these new ideas are often the label of heresy.
How powerful is Monotheism? The Roman emperor had little authority over the top of the church.
Even if the Roman emperor did not need to be crowned by the Pope to hold power, the monarchy would be divided.
Learn from the past and cover the rear.
After the Tang Dynasty was constitutionally constituted by the monarch, the Li Tang royal family was so oppressed that it set a model for the big business and Rome, which made the capital force in the big business and Rome miserable.
However, the great power of the church in Rome has been competing with the imperial power. In fact, the Shang and Tang Dynasties and even the Eastern Kingdoms have been vigilant against Monotheism and even Buddhism and Taoism for thousands of years.
Jiang Chao felt that if they went to Rome, the Shang and Tang Dynasties might not stand by, let alone neither of them.
