Capital Datang

In the 21st year of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty, King Jieri, who dominated northern Tianzhu, died suddenly at the age of 58, leaving no heirs.As soon as the news of King Jieri's death came out, Alonashun, the prime minister of the Jieri Dynasty, usurped the throne and proclaimed himself the new king. There is a sense of touch and fire.

Speaking of King Jieri, he is indeed a great monarch, especially in terms of culture, he has a tolerant attitude towards various religions, and he is also a playwright, leaving behind three scripts that are widely circulated in India .

However, King Jieri actually has huge flaws in terms of governance. For example, he did not establish a unified feudal dynasty, but a loose alliance united by force. Within the Jieri Dynasty, there are more than 30 kingdoms. Moreover, each kingdom has its own monarch, army, and administrative system. These kingdoms only succumb to King Jieri's force and recognize each other's supremacy, but King Jieri cannot interfere too much in the internal affairs of each country.

For example, the usurper Alona Shun was not only the Prime Minister of the Jieri Dynasty, but also the king of the Dinafudi Kingdom within the Jieri Dynasty. He had soldiers and money in his hands, and the Jieri King There is no heir, so when Alonashun usurped the throne, it will be so smooth.

If it is placed in the original history, this Alonashun is the unlucky new king who sent troops to attack Wang Xuance's mission. He should have been killed by Wang Xuance with more than 587 troops. He was defeated, and then Wang Xuance broke through [-] cities in a row, and was captured in the end, and was also offered to be captured in Chang'an by Wang Xuance. It is really aggrieved for a king to do this.Capital Datang [-]

However, in the current history, because of the influence of Li Yin, Datang focused more on Central Asia.In addition, Li Zhen and Li Yun set their target on Tianzhu, so Li Shimin did not intend to establish any friendly relationship with Tianzhu. Therefore, except for the past few years, he had no diplomatic missions with Jieri Dynasty in the past two years.Moreover, Wang Xuance is still a subject of Li Zhen and Li Yun, and it is even more impossible to join the mission of Datang.

Ordinarily without Wang Xuance's intervention, Alonashun should have successfully become the new king of the Jieri Dynasty, but in fact, Alonashun is not the Jieri King, he is just a small king of a kingdom under the Jieri Dynasty. There are more than 30 people with his equal status.Now that these kings saw Alona riding on their heads, they were naturally dissatisfied, and there was no external pressure.Therefore, some small countries within the Jieri Dynasty began to connect together to attack Alonashun.

When the situation in North Tianzhu reached the ears of Li Zhen and Li Yun in South Tianzhu, wars broke out in the whole North Tianzhu. Not only the new king Alona was attacked by various kingdoms, but also some kingdoms that had hatred Take the opportunity to fight.In just ten days, five kingdoms were destroyed, and tens of thousands of people were made homeless due to the war.

At this time, Li Yin was about to go back to Taiwan, and even boarded the boat that day, but was dragged off the boat by Li Zhen and Li Yun who received the news, and then went back to the temple to listen to the detailed information.After the inquirer finished talking about the situation in North Tianzhu, the three brothers and Wang Xuance remained silent, thinking about the impact of this incident on them in the future.

"Xuance. What's your opinion?" Li Yin thought about it for a while, then suddenly raised his head and asked Wang Xuance.

After hearing this, Wang Xuance bowed and said, "His Royal Highness, it's not a good opinion, but I believe that the chaos in Northern Tianzhu has started. It is absolutely beneficial and harmless to us. What we need to do now is In the shortest period of time, unify the whole of South Tianzhu and train a strong army. The sooner the process, the better, because I am worried that if the war in North Tianzhu lasts too long, it will affect the local population and The economy has caused serious damage, which is not conducive to the development after the occupation. Second, if there is a hero who rises in the war like King Jieri and once again unifies Northern Tianzhu, it will definitely be a big trouble for us!"

Hearing Wang Xuance's analysis, Li Yun's eyes brightened and said: "Yes, the chaos in North Tianzhu has been settled. If it is a few years later, when our power expands to Central Tianzhu, we can take this opportunity to take over North Tianzhu in one fell swoop." Tianzhu, but now we have not even completely unified South Tianzhu, we simply have more than enough energy, so the best way is as Xuan Ce said, first strengthen our own strength, anyway, the war in North Tianzhu ’ It won’t be over in a short time, when they are exhausted from fighting, we can just reap the benefits.”

However, Li Zhen said a little unwillingly: "Now that the countries in North Tianzhu are not ready, it is a good opportunity to unify North Tianzhu in one fell swoop. Among other things, as long as you give me a cavalry force of 2, I will have Grasping the leveling of North Tianzhu countries, so should we consider taking this opportunity to take North Tianzhu down?"

Hearing Li Zhen's radical proposal, Li Yun immediately objected: "Eighth brother, please don't mess with me again, we have just expanded the territory several times, and now most of the areas have not yet come to govern. If the army is transferred to a part of Northern Tianzhu, among other things, it is estimated that there will be rebellions in many places tomorrow!"

After hearing this, Wang Xuance considered it carefully, and then said in a slow tone: "His Royal Highness King Yue is indeed right in one point. If the countries in Northern Tianzhu are not prepared, they can indeed use a surprise army to make a surprise attack at lightning speed. In the shortest time Annihilate countries within time."

Hearing what Wang Xuance said, Li Yun's face immediately changed drastically. He was about to say something more, but Wang Xuance continued: "It's one thing to defeat the countries of Northern Tianzhu, but it's the real rule over there. It's another matter. With our current strength, it would be difficult to rule just one southern Indian, so even if we can bring down the larger northern Indian, we still have no power to rule, and we still have to risk making the current rule unstable. risk, so in the eyes of my subordinates, the gain outweighs the loss!"

Hearing that Wang Xuance also opposed his proposal, Li Zhen couldn't help sighing. In fact, he also knew the biggest shortcoming of his proposal, but his character made him unwilling to give up this opportunity, so he wanted to propose it. See See if others have a remedy, but now it seems that he is still too optimistic.

At this moment, Wang Xuance suddenly realized that Li Yin had been watching them without speaking, which made him feel moved, and he immediately asked, "His Royal Highness Qi, what do you think about this matter?"

Only then did Li Zhen and Li Yun remember that the sixth brother they had always admired was by their side, maybe he could do something, so they all looked at Li Yun with hopeful eyes.

But Li Yin smiled confidently: "Actually, the seventh brother and Xuan Ce are right. It took you so long and finally to lay such a solid foundation in South Tianzhu. It can be said that this is your base camp. Only by managing this place well will we have the strength to expand outward in the future, so no matter how big the temptation of North Tianzhu is, we can't risk the rule here!"

Li Yin paused for a moment when he said this, and then said: "But not being able to send troops into North Tianzhu doesn't mean that you can't do anything. At least you still have a sharp weapon in your hand, which can be used in this turmoil." Great benefits for you."

"Sharp weapon?" Li Zhen, Li Yun, and Wang Xuance looked at each other in dismay. For a moment, they couldn't think of what Li Yun meant by sharp weapon?

"Religion, that is, your new Brahmanism, as long as you put it in North Tianzhu and take advantage of this war, it will grow at an astonishing speed. If you add a little force, the effect will be great." It's even more astonishing!" Li Yin said firmly.

Although Li Zhen and the other three had created the new Brahmanism, they obviously did not realize the power of religion.In fact, this is not their fault. After all, in the history of the Central Plains Dynasty, the power of religion has always been suppressed by the imperial power. Therefore, although Li Zhen and Li Yun have become popes, when encountering problems, the first thing that comes to mind is secular power. , rather than using the power of religion to resolve.Capital Datang 587

"This... can this work? I'm afraid the effect can be very limited if only the power of religion is used?" Even someone as shrewd as Wang Xuance said that he was not confident, and the same was true for Li Zhen and Li Yun.

Only Li Yin still said confidently: "Don't doubt the power of religion, especially in a country like Tianzhu, where the people's devotion to religion is far greater than their loyalty to the country, so as long as your religion can When Bei Tianzhu develops and conquers the local people ideologically, then when your strength reaches a certain level, you don't even need to send troops at all, Bei Tianzhu will take the initiative to join you!"

Li Yin's self-confidence also infected Li Zhen and the others. Among them, Wang Xuance thought about it carefully, and then said: "Since His Highness King Qi is so sure, then we can give it a try. After all, we are only going to North Tianzhu to preach, and there is no need to use too much money." For strength, we only need to send a group of Brahmin nobles, and we need a certain amount of deterrent force, and it is best to occupy a stronghold along the coast of North Tianzhu, but this requires the help of His Royal Highness Qi's navy!"

"Okay! Let's do it like this. I will personally lead the troops and see if the troops in Northern Tianzhu are stronger or weaker than ours?" Li Zhen also took the case at this time, and he still had a deep feeling for the power of religion. He had doubts, but when he heard that he wanted to occupy a stronghold in the north, it was exactly what he wanted, so he agreed immediately.

Li Yun saw that Li Zhen and Wang Xuance both agreed with Sixth Brother's proposal, so he naturally would not object, and immediately asked Li Yin about the points that should be paid attention to when preaching. These Li Yin can combine the Christianity of later generations to develop believers all over the world Based on his experience, he gave some suggestions to Li Yun and the others.

Originally, because of the upheaval in North Tianzhu, Li Yin planned to stay in Tianzhu for a while, but at this moment, a bad news suddenly came from Datang. Although this bad news had already been expected by Li Yin, when the news came When he came, he still felt extremely sad.
