Ever since the Dashi Empire was defeated by Datang, and Datang occupied two-thirds of its territory, and captured their emperor Mohammed, the Dashi Empire has been in a slump.
Mohammad II moved his capital to the westernmost Umayyad region to linger, and thus lost the qualification to compete with the Tang Dynasty.
And now the only empire in the whole world that has the ability to compete with Datang is the Byzantine Empire!
The Byzantine Empire can be said to be the greatest enemy of the Tang Dynasty at present, and the biggest obstacle preventing Lin Xuan from realizing his grand dream.
Everyone understands that this time of civil strife in the Byzantine Empire is the best time for the Tang Dynasty to encroach on the Byzantine Empire!
"His Majesty, this is a god-sent opportunity!"
"Your Majesty, please order troops to be dispatched!"
Yue Fei said excitedly.
As a general, he is naturally eager to gallop on the battlefield and make contributions to the Great Tang!
"Sending troops is definitely necessary, the key is how to send troops."
"Should we attack the Byzantine Empire directly, or choose to support one of the rebel forces in secret?"
Li Shimin spoke slowly, and several people immediately began to think after hearing the words.
"His Majesty, in my humble opinion, I should choose to support one of the rebels in the Byzantine Empire."
"Although the Byzantine Empire is now experiencing civil strife, it was once a powerful empire with more than a million soldiers!"
"If our Tang Dynasty attacks the Byzantine Empire in such a grand manner, it may cause panic in the Byzantine Empire, causing them to unite and deal with the Tang Dynasty together."
"Although our country is strong and our army is strong in the Tang Dynasty, if we face the desperate resistance of the Byzantine Empire, even if we win, we will have to pay some price."
"Therefore, the humble minister should choose one of the rebels, reach an agreement, secretly support him to become the emperor of the Byzantine Empire, and share half of their Byzantine Empire territory afterwards."
"In this way, not only can the rebels of the Byzantine Empire attack each other and consume their strength, but also enable our Tang Dynasty to obtain the desired benefits at the lowest cost."
Liu Bowen analyzed the pros and cons of attacking openly and aboveboard and plotting in secret, and put forward his own suggestions to Li Shimin.
"Master Liu is right. Although with the strong national strength of our Tang Dynasty, no matter which method can win, but if we secretly plot it, we can indeed minimize the loss of Datang."
"It really should be plotted in secret!"
Ma Zhou, Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others all supported Liu Bowen's suggestion.
Listening to Liu Bowen's analysis, Lin Xuan nodded again and again, full of admiration in his heart.
It is worthy of being the great man in history who can help Zhu Yuanzhang to rule the country and create the Ming Dynasty. His vision is sharp and vicious!
"Since this is the case, then choose a side of the rebels to support secretly."
"Our Great Tang helped him obtain the throne of the Byzantine Empire, but after that, he will divide half of our Great Tang's territory!"
Li Shimin finally decided to adopt Liu Bowen's suggestion.
As the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he must be responsible for the people and soldiers of the Tang Dynasty. If conditions permit, the sacrifice of soldiers can be reduced as much as possible!
After Li Shimin, Lin Xuan and the ministers finished their discussions, they dispatched Yue Fei to lead Xue Rengui, Qin Huaidao, Cheng Huaimo, Wei Chi Baolin and other generals to the border to make preparations.
As for which rebel army to choose to support in the Byzantine Empire, you have to think carefully.
It cannot be too weak, nor too strong, and it must be well controlled.
After Lin Xuan, Liu Bowen, Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and other ministers finalized the plan for the Byzantine Empire, they immediately sent people to act.
Mobilize all the intelligence forces of the Tang Dynasty in the Byzantine Empire, and conduct evaluation and investigation on all the rebels in the Byzantine Empire.
After the death of the old emperor of the Byzantine Empire, Justinian, more than a dozen rebels, large and small, emerged successively.
After a series of analysis and consideration, Lin Xuan chose to cooperate with the rebel army headed by Heraclius.
Byzantine Empire, Andak City.
This is the base camp of the Heraclius rebels.
Shen Lian, the head of the bad guys in the Byzantine Empire, brought people here to negotiate with him.
"Hehe, people from the Great Tang Empire, what are you doing here?"
Heraclius sat in a broad chair, eyesLooking at Shen Lian and the others with narrowed eyes, he sneered intermittently. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
