Chapter 67 Charisma!
Chapter 67 Personality Charm!
"Son-in-law, what you said is true?
Could it be that there are so many powerful countries around the Tang Dynasty?”
Li Shimin asked in a deep voice.
If it is really as Xu Tian said, the Tang Dynasty is only part of Asia, less than a quarter of its area, then wouldn’t it mean that there are three countries as powerful as the Tang Dynasty above Asia!
After defeating the Turks, Li Shimin already believed that the Tang Dynasty could sweep the countries without any rivals, and at this time he once again felt a sense of crisis.
"Haha! Father-in-law, does it take so many powerful countries to have such a large land area?
Tubo is also quite large, and they are not much stronger."
Xu Tian said with a smile.
That's right!
The Tubo land area was at least one-quarter of that of the Tang Dynasty, but the national strength was simply not worth mentioning, and the number of people was very small.
"Son-in-law, if you say, having a land area does not mean there will be a strong country. Then why would my Tang Dynasty still fight in all directions and expand its territory?"
"The land area is large, not only is it difficult to take charge, but the number of people is not large, and the productivity cannot be improved. Instead, it will drag down our prosperous country in the Tang Dynasty!"
Fang Xuanling said in a deep voice.
He naturally knew that the larger the land area, it was a good thing for a dynasty, but the disadvantages were also obvious.
For example, why did Li Shimin not attack directly at the beginning, but accepted the submission of Tubo and became the culprit of Tubo?
It is because Tubo is a basin, with many mountains and hills, and the Tubo people are sparse, so it is not easy to manage. It is not because of the difficulty of governance.
As Xu Tian said, there is a large area of land outside of Tubo, but the number of people is not as numerous as the Tang Dynasty. After attacking countries such as Tubo, it is more difficult to govern and has fewer benefits.
"Haha! Old House, you are the pedantic insights of scholars. The larger the land area, the more resources you have, it means that you can't discover them with our current means!"
"Like the big-witted horse in Tubo, this is the best breed of war horse, which is better than the Xiliang horse. If Tubo is taken down, we will have a continuous stream of excellent horse breeds!"
"Like the Turks, there are vast grasslands. If they are taken down, our Tang Dynasty can build large horse farms there and cultivate excellent war horses!"
"That's not all. The gold, silver and iron ore buried underground are indispensable resources for a country's development and growth. Isn't it worth attacking?
If we can't use it now, it doesn't mean that future generations cannot use it!"
Xu Tian said with a smile.
What he said was only part of what Li Shimin, Li Jie and Fang Xuanling could understand. For example, there are a large amount of oil resources buried underground in Tubo, and there is also the world's largest potassium salt mine. These are strategic resources at the level of a great country in later generations.
"Haha! Well said! A virtuous son-in-law, if you give you 100,000 people for your father, how much territory can you expand outward?"
Li Shimin likes to hear Cheng Yaojin brag the most on weekdays because Cheng Yaojin is straightforward and says whatever he says, he feels happy.
Today, what Xu Tian said made Li Shimin feel that his horizons broadened and he had greater goals in his life.
Xu Tian narrowed his eyes slightly, and the eyes that looked at Li Shimin were filled with an unpredictable depth.
My father-in-law, who was so hiding in depth, actually secretly controlled an army of 100,000 people!
"One hundred thousand people! If my father-in-law can guarantee my sufficient supply of food and grass, it will be no difficult to expand tens of millions of square kilometers of territory for my Tang Dynasty in ten years."
As a later generation, he had a general understanding of the geographical location of various countries and the generals of various countries. What's more, with the army and sufficient food and grass, he could create new weapons, such as machine guns.
Ten years have been conservatively estimated. According to the level of technological development in the world today, as long as there is no fire in the rear, it will not be a problem to capture the entire Asian continent.
hiss!
Li Shimin, Li Ji and Fang Xuanling all took a breath. The Tang Dynasty today does not have so much territory.
In ten years, Xu Tian really felt this!
good!
Li Shimin slapped his thigh and stood up directly. He really wanted to take Xu Tian back to Chang'an immediately, tell him that he was Li Shimin, and then hand him over the army of 100,000 to lead his troops to the war.
Ahem!
Li Ji and Fang Xuanling saw that Li Shimin was very excited at this time and quickly coughed twice. Li Shimin also calmed down in an instant. He was a gentry who wanted to rebel, not Li Shimin!
Moreover, whether Xu Tian knew his identity was not certain, and his attitude was even more unclear. He gave him a hundred thousand troops in a confused manner, and even the civil and military officials in the court would not agree.
"Father-in-law, how excited are you now?
We have no one in our hands now, and the world belongs to Li Shimin, and we can't beat him."
Xu Tian said in a deep voice.
"Oh! Son-in-law, you have learned this and you still think you can't beat the current emperor. Moreover, what you said before seems to have a very high evaluation of the emperor!"
"Do you think the priest's talent is higher than you?"
Li Shimin looked at Xu Tianwen and saw a little more proud look in his eyes.
"This is not. Based on my talent and learning, the saints are not one ten thousandth of that of me today, but everyone has their own strengths. We can't compare to the saints' strengths!"
Xu Tian said in a deep voice.
His words are not nonsense. As a person from later generations, he is also the King of Special Forces. Xu Tian has mastered various knowledge and the method of making thermal weapons, which is definitely a crushing level.
"Haha! Based on your talent and learning, isn't the priest today less than one ten thousandth of you?
Then, what are the strengths of the priests today?”
Li Shimin asked with a smile, and the smile on his face also became very strange.
Li Ji and Fang Xuanling both sweated coldly for Xu Tian. He is probably the only one in the world who dares to belittle His Majesty like this.
“Personal Charm.”
Xu Tian said directly.
"charm?
Haha! Today’s Master is a man, how can he be charming?”
Li Shimin smiled.
"Father-in-law, personal charm is not about the attraction of young women to men, but about the natural leadership of a great man. A person with extremely high personality charm is easier to be convinced and follow everyone!"
"After all, the only one who can let Li Jing, Li Ji, Li Junxian, Cheng Yaojin, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui rebel, etc. follow the rebellion."
Xu Tian explained.
kindness!
Li Shimin was stunned. In Xu Tian's mouth, being able to rebel with a group of people became a way to reflect his personality charm.
