When Li Yuan raised troops in Jinyang to resist the tyranny of the Sui Dynasty, he wanted to go south to conquer the city, so he had to beware of the Turks in the north from taking his nest. However, if he allocates a portion of the troops sufficient to defend the city, then his strength will not be enough to compete in the Central Plains.

So, he thought of a way-to form an alliance with the Turks.

Li Yuan pretended to form an alliance with the Turks and promised that he went south to conquer the city and only wanted to occupy the land and population, and all the gold, silver and money he received along the way would be given to the Turkic Khan. The price that Sibi Khan needs to pay is only to send a few hundred troops.

How can Shibi Khan have Li Yuan's political talent? I was so happy to be coaxed by the bad check, and immediately agreed to send troops to do this business that could be regarded as an empty glove white wolf.

However, no matter how he thought, Li Yuan was not trying to form an alliance with him at all, but just wanted to stabilize him so as not to drag him back. After Li Yuan occupied Chang'an, he didn't mention it at all, as if it had never happened before.

At this time, Shibi Khan had only recollected that he knew that he had been fooled, so he was furious, and issued a lot of national books in a row, reprimanding Li Yuan for treachery, and Li Yuan all heeded and ignored it.

The competition between countries is not a partnership in business, and it has never emphasized fairness and integrity. In fact, there is no fairness between countries at all. What is played is the law of the jungle, and what is emphasized is that the weak and the strong. You talk about your trust with others, and you won’t hesitate for even a moment when they break their promises in the future.

If you have the ability, you can lie to others. How much you cheat is your ability. If you were deceived and made a wedding dress for someone else, you can only blame yourself for being stupid, failing to think through things clearly, and having less flexibility and strength than others.

This is the truth of this world.

Since then, the Liangzi between Datang and Turks has been forged.

When the Turks were wealthy, they attacked the border of the Tang Dynasty, brightened their fists, and showed the evil spirit of being deceived; when the Turks were poor, they attacked the border of the Tang Dynasty and looted the people, or they showed the evil spirit of being deceived. They even referred to the Han people as "two-legged sheep", which shouldn't need to be explained.

All in all, for Datang, the Turks are an enemy who sleeps soundly on the side of the couch and always thinks about punching you from time to time. Do you think anyone who is Emperor of the Tang Dynasty will leave such a guy alone? What's more, Li Shimin himself is a generation of heroes, and he can't accept this situation.

In addition to these reasons, including the Weishui League, one of the very important reasons Li Shimin has always wanted to do something with the Turks is the war horse.

There are few places suitable for raising horses in Datang, and few good horses are produced. On the Turkic side, however, the opposite is true. There are plump pastures everywhere, and the horses can be raised to fat and strong, and they can run fast. Because of this, the Turks have a very powerful cavalry force.

Li Shimin always wanted to master such a cavalry. However, the Turks are not stupid. Where can they export strategic materials like war horses at will? The number of war horses sold to Datang has always been limited, the price is very high, and all of them are stallions, but they are not willing to let Datang breed good war horses by itself.

Therefore, if Li Shimin wants to form a powerful cavalry, the only way is to completely defeat the Turks and make them a vassal of Datang. If the Turks can be turned into a base dedicated to the production of war horses for Datang, then Datang's martial arts will reach unprecedented heights.

Anyone who dares to be disrespectful to Datang must weigh whether he is qualified or not.

Li Xin talked about these reasons, and Chen Youlan listened in silence before sighing.
