Chapter 102: Reaping the Profits
Li Ruyi was always outspoken, but when he dared to talk to Li Zhen like this, everyone was shocked.
Cheng Yaojin and Li Jing were contemporaries and had a good friendship. Li Ruyi was his junior. When he heard Li Ruyi speak so rashly, Cheng Yaojin coughed and winked at Li Ruyi.
However, Li Ruyi didn't realize it and continued to talk to himself.
Li Zhen is still very generous and generous, and he knows Li Ruyi's outspoken temper, but he likes Li Ruyi's true temperament very much.
Therefore, Li Zhen did not take Li Ruyi's rash words to heart.
The corners of Li Zhen¡¯s lips turned up slightly, and she said lightly: ¡°You all think so too?¡±
Several people nodded.
Cheng Yaojin said in a buzzing voice: "Your Majesty, there have been more than a dozen waves of Silla's envoys. The war is very tense now. Three out of ten Silla's territories have been occupied. If we continue to sit idly by like this, Silla's territory will be occupied." Luo will surely perish."
"Your Majesty, after all, Silla is a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty. We still need to help, otherwise it will chill people's hearts. Moreover, if Silla falls, the coalition forces of Baekje, the Japanese, and Izumi will inevitably attack the homeland of Goguryeo. It will be a shame."
Li Zhen was happy again and said, "Third out of ten Silla countries have been occupied?"
"Well, and the Baekje coalition forces are still advancing. If this continues, it won't be long before they occupy the entire Silla. I estimate that Silla will not last two months." Cheng Yaojin replied.
"Well, then we will send out troops in two months."
"What? My lord, do you want to sit back and watch Silla perish without saving it?"
Cheng Yaojin and others were all shocked. Although Li Shimin told Li Zhen to stick to the country when he left, he did not say that he would not attack. Just sitting back and watching Silla's demise was probably not good for the Tang Dynasty.
Li Zhen said: "What I do is the most beneficial to the Tang Dynasty."
"oh?"
Everyone was stunned.
Li Zhen said calmly: "If we help Silla defeat the Baekje coalition, have you ever thought about what would happen?"
Everyone was silent. Obviously, everyone didn't think that far.
Li Zhen said: "I can tell you the answer. If we help Silla defeat the Baekje coalition, then Silla will become the dominant power on the peninsula and even annex Baekje. As Silla becomes stronger, its ambitions will expand. , what can we, the Tang Dynasty, get? It is nothing more than the second Goguryeo eyeing us."
"Silla is a vassal state and has always been friendly to us, Datang. It should not do this." Cheng Yaojin said.
Li Zhenyi shook his head and said: "Now Silla is weak, and I, the Tang Dynasty, are strong, so Silla will bow to me, the Tang Dynasty. But what will happen in a few decades or hundreds of years? One day, Silla will be strong, and I, the Tang Dynasty, will be strong." The Tang Dynasty declined, so how could Silla be willing to surrender to the Tang Dynasty?"
Li Ruyi frowned and said, "But if the Baekje coalition wins, wouldn't it pose a greater threat to the Tang Dynasty?"
"If Silla wins, we have no excuse to attack Silla. That will make the subordinate countries of Tang Dynasty feel miserable. However, if Baekje wins and Silla is destroyed, then we can justifiably attack Baekje. As long as it is destroyed After Baekje, by then, the entire peninsula and the three Koreas will become our territory of the Tang Dynasty.
We, the Tang Dynasty, no longer have to worry about threats from the peninsula. Even after a hundred or thousand years, there will be no more continuous wars, because the entire peninsula has become a part of our Datang Dynasty! "
After hearing what Li Zhen said, everyone took a breath of cold air. What was Li Zhen¡¯s idea?
He actually wanted the Baekje coalition to attack Silla, and then send troops to attack Baekje, so that all the three Korean lands on the peninsula could be included in the Tang Dynasty.
The truth of this kind of thinking is too terrible!
Li Zhen¡¯s ambitions are too great!
If Emperor Li Shimin knew Li Zhen's idea, he would not agree, because the Tang Dynasty only had more than 50,000 troops in the northeast, and lost nearly 10,000 troops when attacking Goguryeo. The total number now is only more than 40,000 people. The 20,000 troops selected by Goguryeo to surrender amounted to no more than 60,000 people in total.
The 20,000 troops surrendered by Goguryeo are not popular and cannot be used at all. They can only do some logistical work.
The Baekje Allied Forces numbered 200,000, and the 40,000 Tang troops fought against the 200,000 Baekje Allied Forces. The gap in strength was too great, and it would be difficult to defend the homeland of Goguryeo, let alone occupy the land of three Koreas.
Of course, if this battle is really won, it will greatly enhance the strength of Datang, andIn order to avoid the border troubles of the Tang Dynasty for a hundred years in the future.
Cheng Yaojin thought about it for a while. If Li Zhen's plan succeeded, it would really be the best result for the Tang Dynasty. It would be morally unjustifiable to just sit back and watch Silla's demise.
Li Zhen saw everyone's thoughts and said with a smile: "This world is a world of the weak and the strong. Justice is only for others to see. Whether it is an individual or a country, interests come first. The reason why Silla surrendered to the Tang Dynasty is also It¡¯s just because Datang is more powerful.¡±
"Of course, what you said makes sense. We still have to make some gestures of sending troops to assist. Ruyi and Rengui, you will take 20,000 soldiers to the border areas with Silla and Goguryeo. Remember, you can only walk two meters a day. Shili, don¡¯t move too fast.¡±
"We have to wait until the war between Baekje and Silla is over before moving forward at full speed to start a showdown with the Baekje coalition."
Li Zhen's words are well-founded. According to Li Zhen's historical knowledge, in the original time and space, after the Tang army helped Silla to destroy Baekje, Silla incited a rebellion in the homeland of Goguryeo, and took advantage of the opportunity of the Tang Dynasty's war with Tuyuhun to attack the homeland of Goguryeo and Baekje launched an attack on its homeland and occupied a large amount of land in the Tang Dynasty.
The Tang Dynasty finally gave up Baekje during the reign of Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty, so Silla unified most of the territory of the peninsula, and the Tang Dynasty suffered a great loss.
Throughout the war between Tang and Luo, Silla took advantage of the poor international situation of the Tang Dynasty and the surrounding powerful enemies to continuously invade and invade the territory of the Tang Dynasty. Once it failed, it stayed low and retreated, but when the Tang Dynasty thought that nothing happened, it continued to invade the Tang Dynasty. The gangster's face was exposed, and he finally got what he wanted, damaging the Tang Dynasty and protecting the Jin family's regime in Silla.
Therefore, Li Zhen doesn¡¯t want this to happen again. Now that she has come to this world, she must change everything and eliminate Silla, a major trouble in the future!
After listening to Li Zhen's words, Xue Rengui hugged his head and Cheng Yaojin nodded, saying in his heart that Li Zhen, the king of Yue, was really an unparalleled figure. He had calculated this to his bones. Even the emperor Li Shimin was afraid that he would not be able to compare with him.
It seems that there is a successor to the Tang Dynasty.
Originally, Cheng Yaojin did not intend to intervene in the dispute between Li Zhen and Li Zhi, because behind Li Zhi was Changsun Wuji, a popular figure next to Li Shimin, who had a political advantage.
But Li Zhen was fighting alone, with no power behind him. It was not until Li Zhen came to Youzhou that Cheng Yaojin discovered that Li Zhen was not as simple as he appeared. He had unlimited potential. After the Battle of Goguryeo, Cheng Yaojin Yaojin strengthened this idea.
Listening to Li Zhen¡¯s words now, Cheng Yaojin felt that Li Zhen¡¯s mind was absolutely superior to that of ordinary princes, a hundred times better than the cowardly Li Zhi.
If Li Zhen is in power, given time, the Tang Dynasty will surely be brought to a glorious and prosperous age.
Besides, after Li Zhen arrived in Youzhou, after such a long period of working together, outsiders have already regarded themselves as Li Zhen's people.
Reality also forced me to make a choice between Li Zhi and Li Zhen. It was impossible to walk between the two of them if I wanted to pursue the golden mean.
Thinking of this, Cheng Yaojin made up his mind. From now on, his treasure will rest on Li Zhen. If he wins, the Cheng family will surely prosper in the future!
