In Yizhou, the merchants were informed by the Ministry of Commerce that a large number of merchants went to Ryukyu to buy goods that were said to be sold by Luo Anguo. To them, Luo Anguo was still a mysterious country, because there was no one in the entire Tang Dynasty except Li Yin Having been to that place, they have seen a lot of magical products, but these products are all purchased by Li Yin from Luo Anguo, private merchants have never directly purchased these products, now that they have such an opportunity, they are naturally Flock to Ryukyu.

"Daqian, when you were asked to come to Ryukyu, you were still unwilling! Look, now, I am a little envious of you. Your Highness forgets all good things here." Tong Nian stood with Jin Daqian at the trade pier of Ryukyu with his stomach straight. , looking at the businessmen coming and going to transship goods, he said with emotion that the trade zone officially started two-way trade, and he, the person in charge of the commercial department, wanted to come and see.

Jin Daqian and Tong Nian were the first group of people to follow Li Yin, and they were old friends, so they didn't have any scruples in speaking, he said: "Thanks to His Royal Highness, Ryukyu has such a grand occasion today, many people It is said that the degree of prosperity is second only to Yizhou!"

"It's true. Chang'an is not as good as yours. I think you have a good location in Ryukyu, which can attract people from so many countries to do business here." Tong Nian's eyes were on a man with a big beard. Scanning over, he said, "Hey, where are there so many Persians here? I have seen no less than a hundred of them along the way."

Jin Daqian followed Tong Nian's gaze and said with a smile: "This is not a Persian, this is a cannibal. Don't you know that the expeditionary force is fighting against the cannibal now? The businessmen of the cannibal are all from The Great Food Kingdom fled here."

With an "oh", Tong Nian said, "So, you are not afraid of these people gathering together to make trouble."

Jin Daqian said meaningfully: "Business is business, war is war, and they clearly distinguish it."

While talking, the two got into the car and drove towards the trade area. The trade area of ​​Datang and Luo Anguo is not far from the port. After driving for ten minutes, the two arrived at the trade area. Get off at the trade area. Tong Nian He locked his sights on the scattered turrets in the trade zone, on which soldiers could be vaguely seen patrolling, and he suddenly understood why Jin Daqian was so relieved. It turned out that the Yizhou Army had already established fortifications.

Passing by these turrets, Tong Nian saw rows of two-story concrete buildings, which were painted with white paint. The buildings were all neat square rooms filled with various commodities, some of which he had never seen before. Presumably this is the product from Luo Anguo.

"There is really everything here." Tong Nian said in surprise.

"There is something that surprises you even more." Jin Daqian smiled, and led Tong Nian around the dense trading area in front to a spacious area, where various agricultural machines were parked, and many businessmen inside asked about the functions of these machines.

Tong Nian opened his mouth wide. He also saw a lot of exquisite cars and household appliances. These things used to be used only by people in the Prince's Mansion, but now they are all over the place. This trip was not in vain, he said. : "Daqian, I want to buy a car to take home, can you give me a discount?"

"I don't dare to do that. It's okay to borrow money from you. You absolutely can't go through the back door. If His Highness finds out, with his temper, I'll be done as an assassin. I can't open this hole." A batch of students who graduated from the State Government Affairs University were added to the government. These people are very talented, and many people are dissatisfied with him, the governor with old ideas, and they all stare at him, waiting for him to make mistakes. .

Tong Nian shook his head when he heard the words, and said, "I found out that the older you are, the less courageous you are. Since we have been following His Highness for so many years, what will His Highness say if you get a little bit of money? That's all, that's all."

Jin Daqian frowned, Tong Nian's words made him feel a little bit wrong, he reminded: "Tong Nian, you and I are already old, you can't be messed up at this time, now your business department is the fattest Department, you have to control your hands."

Rolling his eyes, the unnatural look on Tong Nian's face disappeared in an instant, and he said, "Where did you go, am I like this? It was just a joke."

Jin Daqian remained silent, remembering Li Yin's evaluation of Tong Nian before, that he was talented and speculative, he sighed secretly, and threw his conjectures out of his mind, maybe he thought too much...

During the opening of the trade zone, Xue Rengui successfully defeated the Tubo Dynasty in a three-month long war. Tubo Zamp Songtsen Gampo submitted a letter of surrender to Datang, expressing his willingness to become an autonomous region of Datang.

"Hahaha..." After accepting Songtsan Gambo's letter of credence in Tai Chi Hall, Li Min said to him: "From today onwards, Tubo is not allowed to have its own army, but only a small number of Marquis Wu to maintain law and order. The Tang garrison will be responsible for maintaining the security of Tubo, and Tubo must not violate the government orders of the Tang Dynasty."

"Yes, Your Royal Highness, we will obey your will." Songtsan Gampo said respectfully. After seeing Datang's terrifying weapons, they could no longer raise the idea of ​​resistance. The Don's army will use black magic, which only deepens their fear.

After waving Songtsan Gampo and the envoys to retreat, Li Yin named the generals who participated in the battle again, which made the veterans who accompanied him envy them very much, but they also had to admire the powerful fighting skills of the Yizhou Army. force.

It is natural that everyone in Yizhou is very happy to receive the award. At this time, Li Ji said: "Your Highness, we have come to Tubo to observe and observe this time, so we know that we are frogs at the bottom of a well. Your Highness, please allow us to study at the Military Academy."

"Of course the door of Yizhou Military Academy is open to you. When you come back from your studies, we will let you lead the new army." Li Yin said, he rewarded the generals in Yizhou, and he couldn't let these stare blankly, and Li Yin's next step We are going to completely bring the military system closer to modern times, because it is very inappropriate for a modern army to use the old Fubing management system.

These days, he is thinking about the same division of military regions, using different military regions to manage different regions, such as Japan, the Korean peninsula will be divided into a military region, which will be managed by Zeng Zhida, and the south of Yizhou, including Tubo, will be divided into a military region. The person in charge of this area will be Xue Rengui, and the area from Yizhou to Chang'an, Chang'an to the grassland, and east to Luoyang will be transformed into the Chang'an Military Region. He will continue to divide the others. The reason why he did this is to disperse the power in the hands of the generals. After the division of the military regions, the heads of these military regions will be rotated every two years, so that they have no time to build a network and grow locally. .

"Thank you, Your Highness!" All the generals expressed their thanks one after another.

Now that Tubo has been successfully taken back to the Tang Dynasty, there are no enemies around the Tang Dynasty. Even the Khitan, which has just risen on the upper grassland, has been expelled to the Siberian Ice Field by the grassland garrison. There is no land north of the grassland. Thinking about it, that place was extremely cold, and it would be thankless to occupy it. The most important thing is to control the grassland, a natural pasture, so that no nomads will rise again and threaten the safety of Datang.

After the reward was over, the ministers clamored to celebrate this great victory. In the eyes of these Chang'an ministers, Tubo was a country that even the Tang Dynasty feared. They didn't care about the Wa country, because the people of the Tang Dynasty looked down on them at all. Now that such a powerful enemy has been subdued, it is natural for them to be happy.

Li Shimin rushed back from Yizhou when he heard the news, and personally summoned Songtsan Gampo to see what kind of person this person who threatened him to marry the princess was. Officials, big and small, were able to go to the Daming Palace to have a feast together.

Li Shimin spent more than half a year eating, drinking, and having fun in Yizhou. He was much healthier, his face was flushed, and he was full of energy. What did I feel? I didn't ask him about government affairs at the banquet, which was a scene of joy and harmony. r1152
