    After hearing this, Yue Yun was finally moved by it.  Naturally he thought of Genghis Khan.  The greatest conqueror in world history will be born on the Mongolian grassland in a few years, if he is not dealt with.  He might still unify the Mongolian tribes as he did in history, and then go south to destroy the Liao and Han.  Although firearms have been popularized in Han Dynasty now, and its territory is much larger than that of the Southern Song Dynasty in history, who can guarantee that their descendants will not make mistakes?  After enjoying a peaceful life for too long, whether it is the rulers, the army, or the people, they will gradually become corrupt.  By then, will the big man really be confident that he can block the attack from the north?  ¡¾¡¿ Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!

    "Okay! Lu You! I agree with your approach. Now that Japan has basically settled down, let's go back to Lin'an and have a good discussion with Yunwen, Zhang Xian, Yu Rou, and Yue Li to prepare for war against Liao.  Get ready!" Yue Yun stood up and said with sharp eyes.

    Wang Wen was very happy after learning that Yue Yun had finally decided to go to war against the Liao Dynasty. She said that she would organize the Koryo people who had been exiled to the Han Dynasty and Japan to form a Koryo regiment to join in the future attack on the Liao army.  However, Yue Yun was noncommittal about her request for the powerful man to help her restore her country, saying that the matter was relatively important and needed to be discussed with the cabinet ministers.  ""Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!

    After returning to Lin'an, Yue Yun immediately summoned nine cabinet ministers and many military generals to discuss the war against Liao.

    At the meeting, after listening to Lu You¡¯s analysis, everyone felt that if the threat from the north could not be eliminated,  The Han State has never been able to devote itself wholeheartedly to overseas expansion.

    Because according to Li Bao, the commander-in-chief of the Nanyang Dudu Mansion.  Han troops currently stationed in Bagan.  There have been many conflicts with Tianzhu to the west. Most of the reasons are because Han merchants went to Tianzhu to do business and suffered extortion and even robbery and persecution from the local princes.

    Today¡¯s Han merchants are very different from those in the pre-Song Dynasty.  Almost all of them have their own armed merchant fleets, and they have been influenced by the views of Jiangnan Times and Lin'an College, which believe that "good people are bullied by others, and good horses are ridden by others" and "the truth lies within the range of artillery."  Inside".  Believe in the law of the jungle where the jungle prevails.

    ¡°Besides, they are responsible for these things in the first place, how can they swallow their anger?

    So.  In the Tianzhu area, conflicts between Han merchants and local princes increased.  Although Han merchants also had firearms in their hands, they had few people after all. If they were at sea, they could rely on their own armed merchant ships to sink the warships of princes in coastal ports.  But when they get to the shore, they are often at a disadvantage due to their numerical disadvantage.

    After suffering several losses, they decided to give it a try and sought help from the nearest Han army stationed in Bagan.

    The local Han generals heard that their own businessmen had been bullied and suffered losses.  He immediately became furious, ordered his troops and launched an attack on Tianzhu from both land and sea directions.  Not only did they capture Impat, the closest city in Tianzhu to Bagan, they also occupied several coastal ports in Tianzhu.

    Today¡¯s Tianzhu is not actually a complete country, but generally refers to an area south of the Himalayas.  In Tianzhu, there were many lords and leaders, princes and nobles, large and small. The Han army only occupied one city on the border and several coastal ports, which did not cause any major reaction from them, and even if they realized that the Han was about to invade.  With their loose situation and constant fighting among themselves, they were unable to unite as a united force to fight the Han army.  Therefore, after Li Bao learned about this situation, he prepared to report to the court and expand to Tianzhu.

    But now, after listening to Lu You's analysis, he also realized that without solving the great enemy of Liao first, Han would not be able to devote himself wholeheartedly to fighting Tianzhu now and Dashi in the future. Even as Yue Yun once mentioned, in  To the east of the sea, there is the expansion of a broader new continent.

    At the meeting, everyone expressed their opinions and put forward several important opinions regarding the one-and-a-half-year preparation period.

    Yu Yunwen proposed that troops could be sent to attack Tubo in the west first.  Tubo is currently in the midst of a tribal war. The mountains in its territory are high and the roads are far away, making it difficult to get news.  If you attack one of them, it will take months for the other to get news.  Even if help comes, it's often too late.  Moreover, Tubo had a high degree of identification with the Central Plains dynasty, and Tubo civilians were also very dissatisfied with Tubo's serfdom system and yearned for the free life of Han civilians.  If before the war against Liao, Tubo was included in the territory of the Han Dynasty.  In the future, troops can be sent from Tubo to directly attack Liao's territory in the Western Regions.

    Wang Wen, the subjugated princess of Goryeo, proposed that she would set up military camps on Jeju Island and Tsushima Island, recruit exiled Goryeo people, and form a Goryeo Legion. After the war begins, she would land from the Korean Peninsula.Lu, regain Korea.

    After discussion, the cabinet ministers agreed on the plan to recruit Koreans and establish a regiment to land from the Korean Peninsula after the war.  But he did not agree with the restoration of Korea, nor did he agree that the soldiers of this regiment should be composed entirely of Koreans.

    According to Lu You's arrangement, those Koreans who want to participate in the war against Liao will be mixed into various armies together with Han, Japanese, and Nanyang people. Generals will also be appointed according to their abilities and past military achievements. There will not be one.  A situation in which the army is composed entirely of soldiers of one nation.

    Wang Wen also saw at this time that the officials of the Han Dynasty, including Yue Yun, would not help her restore the country.  She then had no choice but to settle for the next best thing, hoping to achieve a limited degree of autonomy in Goryeo.  The Koreans can handle their own internal affairs.

    Although the cabinet members agreed to her request, they required that Goryeo's legal system be copied entirely from that of the Han Dynasty. At the same time, the currency, language, and education must be consistent with those of the Han Dynasty. In other words, they must be the same as those previously implemented in Nanyang.  The policy is generally the same, it's just a different wording.

    Although Wang Wen was extremely reluctant, she sadly discovered that this was the greatest rights she could obtain for Goryeo, and this was something that the cabinet ministers made an exception for because she had given birth to a daughter for Yue Yun.

    She was also extremely shocked by the power of the Han cabinet, because from the beginning to the end, the emperor Yue Yun was only a participant in the meeting, not even the host.  The chairperson of cabinet meetings is written into the law, and that is the job of the prime minister.

    Although Yue Yun has always played an important role in cabinet meetings due to his high prestige and outstanding resourcefulness, that is just one of the important roles When the cabinet finally voted on each proposal, Yue Yun, the  The emperor was not even eligible to vote.

    "Is this the constitutional monarchy that Brother Yue mentioned before? The emperor is only a formal head of state, and the real power lies in the hands of the cabinet and parliament?" Wang Wen became increasingly confused about her brother Yue.  As far as she knew, which emperor didn't want to keep all the power in his own hands?  But why did Yue Yun insist on doing the opposite?  He was even afraid that the imperial power would become too powerful.  (To be continued.).
