Su Chen smiled and said: "If Dashi is a farming nation like the Tang Dynasty, then Wei Gong's analysis is correct."
Wei Zheng was stunned: "Could it be that the cannibals are nomadic people?"
Li Er, Fang Xuanling and others all looked at Su Chen at the same time.
Su Chen nodded helplessly.
"The Dashi Empire was a theocratic empire with a strong sense of cohesion. Moreover, the metal smelting level of the Dashi Empire in Persia was quite high."
Now everyone in the room felt bad.
Nomadic peoples are no more capable of mobility and expansion than agricultural peoples.
Moreover, in the feudal era, the military power of the nomads was extremely powerful.
Dashi was still a theocratic empire, and the divisive methods used to deal with the Turks were useless.
Wei Zheng thought for a while: "Even so, the Great Eclipse will not affect our Tang Dynasty for the time being, but we need to be careful to prevent things like this locust plague in the three states of the North from happening again."
Everyone nodded. The Great Eclipse might have an impact on the Tang Dynasty a few years later.
For now, don't worry about it for now.
Su Chen still shook his head.
"What else does the Protector have to say?"
"No, Takami, I'm just a little worried."
Su Chen pointed to the intelligence reports: "These are all news obtained from Persian businessmen."
"This means that this information is already half a year out of date."
"I'm worried that the Sasanian dynasty in Persia won't last long."
"To the east of Persia, although it is still very far away from our country, the Tang Dynasty, as far as I know, there are no powerful countries within this long distance."
"Now the Western Turks have basically belonged to the Tang Dynasty, and the Western Regions are also under the jurisdiction of the Tang Dynasty. If Persia is gone, it will not be too far for Dashi's troops to reach these places."
Li Er nodded: "I will ask Baiqi to collect information about the Western Region, Dashi and other Western countries. It would be better to make some preparations in advance."
When everyone heard what His Majesty Li Er said, they thought the article about Dashi was over, but Su Chen said again:
"Not counting these, I have other concerns."
Changsun Wuji couldn't help it anymore: "You can't stand this big food that's far away, right? I'd like to hear what else you have to say."
Su Chen tapped the map: "Look here, Duke Zhao."
Changsun Wuji took a look: "Tianzhu?"
"Are you worried that Dashi will take action against Tianzhu?
Isn’t this separated by Persia?”
Su Chen smiled: "The Persian Sassanid Dynasty was seriously injured in the war with the Byzantine Empire, and it is estimated that it will not last a few days."
"Crossing the Persian Plateau, we are in the northwest of Tianzhu."
"Your Majesty has been plotting against Tianzhu for many days. How is the intelligence collection going?"
Several important ministers knew about this. Before going to Guanzhou, Su Chen even encouraged the prince to conquer Tianzhu himself next year!
His Majesty Li Er did not hide it: "I have collected a lot."
"I didn't know it before. I didn't expect the Tianzhu area to be so rich!"
"The population is not as small as that of the Tang Dynasty, and the land is fertile, the rainfall is sufficient, and the crops are ripe more than a year, which is comparable to that of Suzhou and Hangzhou in the Tang Dynasty."
"But fortunately, the various tribes in Tianzhu are constantly fighting, there is no unified dynasty, and the military power is very scattered and scattered."
Changsun Wuji asked: "Isn't it said that there is some kind of King Harsha who unified the five tribes of Tianzhu?"
"According to Baiqi's latest information, King Harsha only unifies Tianzhu in name only, and does not have strong binding force on various ministries."
Su Chen nodded. It seemed that Li Er had put a lot of effort into Tianzhu's situation.
"Let's not talk about Tianzhu. What happened to your kid today?"
Li Er glared at Su Chen: "You are constantly having trouble with Dashi today, what on earth do you want to do?
Recruit from the real facts!”
Su Chen said cautiously: "It's nothing, I suddenly want to go to Dashi."
Everyone looked at Su Chen in surprise: "This kid is really not right today!"
Li Er was delighted: "You are usually too lazy to go out. You stay at home all day and don't even bother to go to Chang'an. Now you tell me that you want to go to Dashi?"
"Do you know the crime of deceiving the emperor?
You still don’t recruit people from real sources!”
Everyone looked at Su Chen with burning eyes. Your Majesty was right, you might as well recruit him truthfully!
“You’ve been staying at home for a long time, why don’t you want to go out and do some activities?
The world is so big, I want to see it!"
Su Chen is also depressed, do you think I want to go?
This damn system suddenly asked me to go to Medina to sign in. I was helpless!
Just before Li Er and the others arrived, the moment Su Chen received Liu Mo's urgent letter,
The system, which had been pretending to be dead for many days, suddenly issued a task to Su Chen:
For a limited time of one year, go to Medina to sign in!
Su Chen was stunned for a long time before he remembered where Medina was. Isn't that a Saudi city?
It seems not far from the Red Sea!
At the same time, Medina was also the first capital of the Food Empire in history.
After learning the location of Medina, Su Chen almost lost his temper. System, you can just kill me!
Seeing Su Chen's stubborn words, Li Er didn't press the question. He smiled and said, "Then how do you plan to have a big meal?"
"Tell me when you leave and I will help you take good care of your property!"
Su Chen glared at Li Er, "You wish you could die on the road, right?"
No one took Su Chen's words seriously. They were joking. This is much farther than the distance Monk Tang traveled to learn Buddhist scriptures!
How can we get there without walking for a year and a half?
Even if Su Chen had that plan, could he endure the hardship?
"Your Majesty, I'm serious, I really want to go to a big restaurant."
Li Er was too lazy to talk to him: "Well, I'll help you have a smooth journey!"
"Your Majesty, after all, I am also the Protector of the Tang Dynasty, or the consort of the eldest princess, and you just let me eat with nothing?"
"At least give me an army to protect me."
Li Er was amused by him: "Okay, you pick one of the Sixteen Guards, but you have to pay for the food and grass yourself."
"Your Majesty, the Sixteenth Guards are not good enough, why don't you give me the navy from Laizhou?"
"Finally the fox's tail is showing!"
Li Er glared at Su Chen: "It turns out that you are eyeing that navy. If you had been a year ago, maybe I would have agreed."
"But who told you that there are so many gold mines in Japan? That navy I am planning to send them to Japan!"
It seems that Li Er is coveting Su Chen's gold mine in Japan and is ready to take action himself!
"Your Majesty, are the gold mines in Japan worthy of your concern?"
"If you ask me to take the navy to Dashi, I might be able to eliminate this potential enemy of the Tang Dynasty."
"And it can also bring you countless treasures from China, Persia, and Byzantium."
Li Er looked at Su Chen carefully: "Did you tell the truth just now?
Do you really want to go out for a big meal?"
"Your Majesty, when have I ever lied in front of you?"
Su Chen said innocently
"Hmph! You have lied to me so much that I am too lazy to be serious with you."
"But you really surprised me this time. Why on earth did you go to Dashi?"
"I want to eliminate a huge threat for your majesty and for Datang as soon as possible. Do you believe it, your majesty?"
