Reborn Tang Emperor Li Chengqian

Chapter 401 Belus

"Of course I remember these things. These Governor's Mansions and Jimi Prefecture Mansions are all under the jurisdiction of the Anxi Governor's Mansion." Li Chengqian said.

In order to better protect the Silk Road, he turned these small countries into the capitals of the Tang Dynasty, bringing them all into the sphere of influence of the Tang Dynasty.

"That's right! Sixteen countries, such as Tocharia and Persia, are happy to be subjects of the Tang Dynasty."

"I am grateful to Your Majesty for allowing a small country in the Western Regions like Tocharia to become a part of the Tang Dynasty. This is why I specially put on the thank you table to express my gratitude."

"The prestige of my Great Tang has spread far and wide to the entire Western Regions, and all ethnic groups in the Western Regions are vying to be my subjects of the Great Tang." Li Ke said excitedly.

Li Ke is glad that he was born in this great dynasty and can witness that the Tang Dynasty is becoming more and more prosperous.

Li Chengqian is not as optimistic as Li Ke. What kind of gratitude is the nonsense of the subjects of the Tang Dynasty. Tocharian and Persia are threatened by the black food (Arab Empire).

Especially Persia has been wiped out by the black food, and even their Persian king Yazdgeld III was killed.

The prince of Persia, Perus, fled to Tocharia, which was equivalent to leading the black-clothed food to Tocharia.

Li Chengqian also knew a little about the formidable opponent of Heiyi Dashi in the books of later generations, knowing that it was an empire as powerful as the Tang Dynasty.

In order to be able to control Central Asia, Li Chengqian established the Persian Governor's Mansion, using the orthodox status of the Sasanian Empire in Balus to help it restore the country and bring the old Persian land into the sphere of influence of the Tang Dynasty.

The Persian Governor's Mansion was established in Jiling City in Persia, very close to the core area ruled by Heiyi Dashi, so it was naturally vulnerable to the firepower of Heiyi Dashi.

Li Chengqian would like to see if, with the strength of Datang as a country, he can destroy the food in black. Barbarians like the Mongol Empire can do it, and Datang is even more able to do it.

"Isn't Belus the prince of Persia? Didn't he always hope to restore the Persian dynasty? Then we will help him." Li Chengqian said.

"Is Your Majesty planning to send troops to help Belus recover the Persian dynasty?" Li Ke asked.

"Send troops? Now there is Goguryeo in the northeast, and Tubo in the northwest. We are fighting everywhere in the Tang Dynasty. How can we deploy troops to help Belus fight the big food?"

"Even if we have the heart, I'm afraid we don't have the ability, but I can canonize Belus as the king of Persia and provide some supplies for him to fight against Dashi."

"This may not be a good thing for us, Dashi will one day become my opponent of Datang."

"Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles. It's not very good to let Belus fight Dashi. By the way, tell Anxi Duhu to guarantee my rights in Datang in Persia." Li Chengqian said.

"Your Majesty is wise! In this way, we can not only find out the details of Dashi, but also weaken the power of Dashi through the hands of Persian King Belus." Xu Jingzong laughed.

"The Dashi is a powerful empire no less than my Tang Dynasty. If you want to rely on Persia to weaken the Dashi, it is simply a dream. If Persia can really weaken the strength of the Dashi, how can it be wiped out by the Dashi? End." Li Chengqian said.

The previous Persian dynasties were no opponents of the Dashi, and now Persia does not even have half of the country, so what is going to weaken the Dashi?

Although Persia can't play a role in weakening Dashi, it can cause trouble for Dashi so that Dashi won't worry about the Eastern Expedition.

Now Datang doesn't have the time to pay attention to Dashi, and when he frees up his hands, he really has to compete with Dashi.

"Is there anything new about Tubo and Tuyuhun recently?" Li Chengqian asked.

"Since Tubo Zanpo and Xi Duoyu were defeated by General Wang Fangyi and Heyuan Army's economic ambassador Hei Chichangzhi, the Tubo army did not invade Tuyuhun again, but they still stationed troops on the border of Tuyuhun." Li Ke said.

"It seems that Tubo is already determined to annex Tuyuhun. It is only because of the strength of our army that we have not taken any drastic actions."

"Once the military strength of our Tang Dynasty has been reduced, Tubo will definitely take the opportunity to annex Tuyuhun. This is not what we want to see." Li Chengqian said.

"The Tubo army went out to fight, far away from Luosuo, and consumed a lot of food and grass every day. Even if they were loyal to Tuyuhun, they might not be able to stay on the border of Tuyuhun for a long time."

"Once the food and grass in Tubo run low, Lu Dongzan will definitely order the withdrawal of troops. At that time, Tuyuhun's plight will be easily resolved." Li Ke said.

"It is inevitable for Tubo to win against Tuyuhun this time. If Lu Dongzan can give in so easily, then he is not Lu Dongzan." Li Chengqian said.

"Your Majesty means that Lu Dongzan will find another way?" Li Ke said.

"For example, once again provoking the Bugu and other tribes to rebel and make Datang exhausted, send troops to suppress these rebellions, so as to achieve their desired goal. Anyway, this is not the first time they have done this."

"We're not the only ones who know about this trick. Tubo also knows about it, and the application is no worse than ours." Li Chengqian said.

"Since General Zheng Rentai quelled the rebellion of Sijie, Pugu, Tongluo and other tribes, peace has been restored in the Western Regions. The Uighur tribe has been watching these tribes for us, and they dare not act rashly." Li Ke said.

Li Ke didn't believe that Tubo could plunge the Western Regions into turmoil again without a single soldier.

"What if it was the Uyghur tribe uniting with the Tiele tribes to rebel?" Li Chengqian asked.

"This..." Li Ke was very surprised!How could this kind of thing happen? You must know that the leader of the Uighur tribe has always been loyal to Datang.

Li Ke naturally believed that the rest of Tiele's tribe would betray the Tang Dynasty, but he would never believe that the Uighur tribe would rebel. This is definitely a rumor.

"Your Majesty! The leader of the Uighur tribe, Porun and his son, have always been loyal to our Tang Dynasty. I believe that they have no second thoughts. Your Majesty should not be provoked by others." Li Ke said.

"You think it is impossible for the Uyghurs to rebel, but sometimes, the more impossible things are, the easier it is to happen." Li Chengqian said.

Li Ke was taken aback, what did the emperor's words mean?Does it mean that the Uyghurs have rebelled?How could this be?
"Your Majesty! Is there any misunderstanding here? How could Porun rebel? He is loyal to the Tang Dynasty. If I don't believe that he will rebel, I hope His Majesty will investigate clearly." Li Ke said.

Li Ke had met Porun a few times before, and he had a deep memory of this rough-looking, thoughtful barbarian.

I have talked with Po Run a few times, and I have some understanding of Po Run. Po Run is definitely not the kind of treacherous and treacherous person.

Li Ke believed that other barbarians would rebel, and he didn't believe that Po Run would rebel.
