Chapter 711 Map
It was a surprise because Songtsan Gampo came too fast, but it was not a surprise because Princess Wencheng came to Chang'an. Li Zhi knew that Songtsan Gampo would come too.

It seems that what I did in the Western Regions, what I did in Turkic, has spread to all countries in the Western Regions, Turkic and Tubo, and even farther.

Songtsan Gampo is coming, which is definitely good news for Li Zhi. Compared with the later China, the Tang Dynasty at this time lacks the most obvious two parts, one is the Tubo at this time, and the other is the chicken head that piece.

That one was solved by force, but here in Tubo, it is extremely inappropriate to use force at this time.

At night, Li Zhi stood in the Lizheng Hall, a large wall was covered with thick silk.

In front of this large wall, there were only two people standing. One was Li Zhi, and the other was the owner of the Lizheng Hall. At this time, the eldest grandson Empress Dowager, Aunt Lin whom Li Zhi said he could never kiss again.

"Aunt Lin, you said that there is a surprise for me tonight, right after this?"

"You will know when you open it later, close your eyes first."

"Aunt Lin, are you still so mysterious?"

"Listen to Auntie and close your eyes."

Li Zhi closed his eyes obediently, and then heard the sound of a silk rope being pulled. Listening to the sound, this large curtain also used a very basic structure of gears and pulleys.

With his Aunt Lin's knowledge, Li Zhi felt natural when using these two things.In front of Aunt Lin, my knowledge is really not enough.

This sound lasted for a while, and then the sound stopped abruptly. Li Zhi only felt a jade hand on his shoulder, and gently pinched his shoulder.

"The eyes can be opened!"

Li Zhi opened his eyes, and in an instant, a world map occupying the entire wall appeared in front of Li Zhi.

This map of the world is extremely perfect, and there are some flaws, that is, the details are not done very well, which is not surprising, after all, even if people in the future draw from the map, it is impossible to make a perfect rubbing of the map.

But at this time, there was no atlas for people to draw from. In other words, this map was drawn entirely by Aunt Lin based on her own memory.

Li Zhi was really shocked by this accumulation of knowledge and skill in painting.

Even when Li Zhi saw the map, he stayed there for a few seconds, took a few deep breaths, and finally looked at Aunt Lin.

"Aunt Lin, you are really wonderful."

Li Zhi couldn't hold back at this moment, hugged Lin Wanyue, and kissed Lin Wanyue hard.

Then his eyes fell on the map again. Looking at the details of the map, the general trend of mountains and rivers has been handled very well. Li Zhi liked history before, and the geography with the closest relationship between nature and history also makes sense. Li Zhi can also draw an outline of the map from memory.

But if you really compare it with this pair, it's nothing but a joke.

"Like it?"

"I like it, I like it so much, but why is there a country marked here?"

On the entire world map, the mountains, rivers, and oceans are all marked at this time, but there is only one country, that is Tang, and the Tang characters are written so large that on this map, it overshadows the text size of all place names.And that Tang character was naturally written on the land of Huaxia in later generations.

"Isn't this your wish, to make this world borderless, because there is only one country. This is the world map for future generations."

"Haha, yes, let this world have no borders!"

As Li Zhi said, his hand had already reached out to the Tang character written in the simplified characters of later generations.

"Zhier, Songtsan Gampo is coming, how are you going to tell him about the state affairs of the two countries?"

"Form an alliance with him first, fight here!"

Li Zhi's hand pointed to the South Asia region of later generations without hesitation, passing through the Himalayas, that vast land.

"Come here, are you still planning to go in person? If so, you will have to leave for a longer time this time."

"I'm not going. If I have to go out in person in every battle, it will show that Tang Jun is too incompetent, and he thinks too much of the Aryans."

At this time, South Asia was the territory of the Aryans, and the natives who used to live here were the most inferior people on this land.

"If you don't go, Auntie will be relieved, but with the power of Tang and Tubo, it will be difficult to open up land here."

"I know, that's why I want to pull Songtsen Gampo, and I didn't intend to rely solely on force. Ethnic conflicts are the most powerful weapon. In this land, no matter the country or the famous ethnic group, they are not unified."

"At this time, King Jieri has already conquered the five tribes of Tianzhu, so it is relatively unified here at this time."

After Lin Wanyue said something, Li Zhi squeezed his chin with his hands, and looked carefully at the land on the map.

"Aunt Lin, what do you mean?"

"Take here first, so that the Tang-Tu coalition forces can have a bridgehead here and a solid supply line."

The direction Lin Wanyue pointed to was precisely an area in the west of the Indochina Peninsula in later generations. From here, the transportation corridor with South Asia could be obtained, and it could also expand northward, connecting the southwest area of ​​the Tang Dynasty, which was the Nanzhao area at this time.

"Don't think about swallowing South Asia in one bite, it's too big. The Aryans don't operate here in a day or two."

"Aunt Lin is still considerate."

"Well, Auntie knows what you're thinking, boys should look farther away."

"Aunt Lin, before Songtsan Gampo arrives, you should test this Zanpu first to see if he has any intentions in this regard."

"To expand the territory, he must have this idea. He wanted to grab the land with Datang before, but he didn't. Here, it is closer to Tubo."

"Ok!"

Li Zhi hummed, Lin Wanyue waited for him to say something else, but all she got was a hum.

"Don't be wary of Tubo?"

Lin Wanyue herself still said it out, after all, at this time Tubo has not yet integrated into the big family of Huaxia.

It is still the so-called foreign race, and if it is not my race, its heart must be different.

"He dare not!"

Li Zhi only said this, and at this time he pulled the curtain back to cover the wall.

After leaving the Lizheng Hall, Li Zhi summoned the Turkic envoys and the blond beauties sent by the Turkic Khans.

Li Zhi looked at these European women, Li Zhi couldn't tell their ethnicity from their appearance, but from the Turkic geographical location, Li Zhi could roughly guess that they belonged to the Slavs.

If it is subdivided, Li Zhi will not be able to do this. After all, there are actually many ethnic groups in this area, and most of them Li Zhi can't even pronounce their names.

These women are very similar to the beauties of the former Soviet Union in later generations, which also confirms Li Zhi's guess.

Li Zhi looked at these women and naturally understood Turkic Khan's thoughts.
