Chapter 1457

A large number of gold, silver, copper, iron and other materials and Japanese women entered the Han Dynasty. This time, Li Xiang, Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhao Kuangyin, Liu Bei, Dou Jiande, these princes can be said to have made a lot of money. The other princes were all envious.

Moreover, this is only the first batch. Next, these things will be continuously transported from the Wa Kingdom to the Han Dynasty, or more precisely, to the rule of these princes.

Cao Cao and Chi You were not very rich in themselves. After seeing Zhao Kuangyin made such a windfall, they were envious, and they even discussed participating in this small alliance for recruiting Japanese, and even paid for it. Benefit.

It's a pity that it was unanimously opposed by Li Xiang, Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhao Kuangyin, Liu Bei, and Dou Jiande.

For one thing, Cao Cao and Chi You did not have the power of a navy, and they had to use their warships to travel east to Dongying, and they had to use their ships to share the gold and silver that should belong to them. How could the princes agree to this? matter?

Secondly, the cake is only one big piece, the more people share it, the less each person gets.Li Xiang, Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhao Kuangyin, Liu Bei, Dou Jiande, these princes, no matter who they are, they don't want another person to share the cake!

Especially Zhao Kuangyin, he didn't want one more person to share the cake, let alone Cao Cao or Chi You.

The three of them are all competing for the land of the Central Plains, and they are potential opponents. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are life and death enemies. If any one wants to unify the three states of Yan, Yu, and Xu in the Central Plains, the remaining two will definitely not be able to make it. The hurdles are absolutely to be resolved.

Under such circumstances, how could Zhao Kuangyin be willing to let Cao Cao and Chi You share his cake!

If Zhao Kuangyin gets less cake, he will have less development and growth.On the contrary, for every piece of cake that Cao Cao and Chi You share, the two of them can take the opportunity to develop and grow stronger.

If Zhao Kuangyin agreed to Cao Cao and Chi You to join the alliance, wouldn't he be causing trouble for his future self?
Zhao Kuangyin predicted that after he digested the various resources obtained from the Wa Kingdom, its potential strength would definitely far exceed the current Cao Cao and Chi You.At that time, his chance to unify the Central Plains will really come.

On Qin Zheng's side, although he also has his own naval forces, although he is also envious of what Li Xiang, Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhao Kuangyin, Liu Bei, and Dou Jiande have gained from the Japanese kingdom.However, at this time, he was really distracted and weak.

For one thing, Liu Bang had just been wiped out by him not long ago, and he had occupied the entire territory of Youzhou not long ago, and he still needs some time to stabilize and sort out this place.Territory is never the end of just taking it down by force, and even after it is taken down by force, it is just the beginning. Only by really governing it can it really help oneself.

Secondly, between Qin Zhengdong and Li Tang, it was an old problem.Qin Zheng just blocked Li Tang's only expansion route, and Li Shimin could only chase Qin Zheng non-stop. If he couldn't beat Qin Zheng to the ground, he would have no chance to grow stronger.

Indeed, Li Tang borders on the grassland to the north.However, when it comes to the grassland, it's okay to grab a batch of war horses once in a while. With Li Tang's current situation, it's really unrealistic to want to occupy other people's territory.

In the final analysis, Li Tang is a farming nation, not a nomadic people, like the Han Dynasty, and a farming civilization, not a nomadic civilization.

Even if Li Tang could lay down a bit of land in the grassland, if he wanted to stabilize the land he had laid down, he would have to build a city. Wouldn't it cost money to build a city?In this process, how much manpower and material resources must be consumed?

If Li Tang really did this, then Qin Zheng might wake up laughing from his dream.If Li Tang did this, the threat to Qin Zhengdong would be reduced to the lowest point, and then he would be able to take over Jizhou with confidence.

Building a city on the grassland not only requires a huge amount of manpower and material resources in the process, but it is also a thankless task. When these occupied areas can feed back the entire power, it may take a lot of time. How long did it take!
Not to mention Li Tang, even Li Xiang would not attack the grassland until the world is pacified!Taking the initiative to seize the territory of the grassland now is, in a sense, slowing down the pace of unifying the world!
Since ancient times, it is not that the Central Plains dynasty has not taken the initiative to compete with the grassland for territory, but the battle with the grassland has basically cost more than the benefit, whether it is the Han Dynasty or the early Ming Dynasty.

Moreover, from ancient times to the present, the Central Plains forces will take the initiative to attack the grasslands only when they are in a unified situation.Otherwise, the Central Plains itself is in a state of melee among the princes, how can they have the energy to attack the grassland at that time!
Therefore, Li Xiang's strategic goal has always been to get rid of all the big men first, and then focus on solving the grassland issue.And at that time, Li Xiang was able to mobilize sufficient manpower and material resources to solve the grassland problem.

Before that, if the prairie really dared to provoke him, he would just set a fire on the prairie!

Fortunately, at this time, the strength of the prairie is also busy with its own affairs. Although the north cannot be in a stable state, it is basically a small fight. There are occasional people quietly sent to the grassland to grab a batch of war horses back, but there has been no major dispute for the time being.

In addition, the reason why Qin Zheng could not mobilize excess power to attack the Wa country was also because of Yuan Shao.

Before Liu Bang perished, Yuan Shao was very calm at the time, and he prevaricated the persuasion of several counselors under his command, and he really "sit firmly on the Diaoyutai".

But now, Liu Bang was wiped out by the Qin government, and Yuan Shao started to move around instead. Although he hadn't sent troops yet, there was a hint of gunpowder brewing.

Of course, after Li Shimin learned that the princes of the Han Dynasty had robbed a large amount of gold and silver in the Wa Kingdom, he also belonged to the side that was eager.However, at this time, he does not have the strength to compete with the five princes of the Han Dynasty for the Wa Kingdom!

The five princes of the Han Dynasty joined forces, let alone Li Shimin and Qin Zheng as an opponent, even without Qin Zheng, he would not have the strength to fight the five princes at once.

However, since he is not strong enough to compete directly with the Han Hou on the Wa Kingdom, and Li Shimin is really envious of those gold and silver, then he simply does the opposite...
