Datang: I show my cards, I am the emperor

Chapter 102 Xuanzang's westward journey will let me Wang Chen arrange it, it will be of great benefit!

Li Shimin was immediately attracted by this sentence.

On a Tang Xuanzang's request to go to Tianzhu to exchange Buddhism and learn Buddhist scriptures, what new tricks can he come up with?

Could it be that this little Wang shopkeeper has some whimsical ideas?

Li Er hurriedly poked his head over with a look of curiosity, and then asked curiously: "Shopkeeper Wang, what do you mean by this?"

"Could it be that Master Xuanzang asked to go to Tianzhu, what else is there to hide?"

Wang Chen shook his head.

"What is hidden or not, it is really as you and I just said, Your Majesty does not care about Buddhism. "

Although he will agree to this request, he will not take it too seriously, so at most he will send a few followers to Master Xuanzang, which can be regarded as the extreme. "

"But if I were to arrange this, I would have to arrange it in more detail, and it would be of great benefit to use it for many purposes. "

Li Shimin was even more confused now.

He scratched his head vigorously, and then his face was dazed and confused.

In fact, as Wang Chen said, he was really ready to send only a few entourages to follow Tang Xuanzang, and he didn't plan to send too many people to follow.

Because he only agreed to this matter because Tang Xuanzang was more perseverant and persistent.

But what great benefits can be extended to such a small thing?

Li Shimin was a little unconvinced.

But these words came from Wang Chen's mouth, Brother Wang, he believed it incomparably, and his judgment never fell off the standard, nor was he wrong.

He said that there are benefits, and there must be them, but he didn't find it himself.

"Shopkeeper, then you can tell us about it, although the Son of Heaven can't hear it, but I, Lao Li, can also be a witness. "

Wang Chen thought left and right for a while, and could only nod.

This is a huge branch that he summed up before, and he was able to borrow the fact that Xuanzang traveled westward.

It's a pity that Li Shimin couldn't hear what he said, and he couldn't accept his advice.

Seeing that Tang Xuanzang was about to get the customs clearance document and leave the Tang Dynasty from Yumen Pass, if he didn't say this to others, he would rot in his stomach.

It's better to simply put it in front of Lao Li and pretend to be a force.

Therefore, Wang Chen directly gestured to Li Shimin.

"To a certain extent, what are the benefits of promoting Buddhism, I have already told you just now, and I will not mention it here.~. "

"In addition to the benefits of Buddhism itself, Master Xuanzang's visit to Tianzhu, as long as it is properly arranged, is enough to give birth to six aspects of great benefits!"

As soon as Wang Chen's words fell, Li Shimin was immediately dumbfounded.

Six benefits?

Nima, how did you come up with this?

He thought about it, and he couldn't think of any benefits outside of the essence of Buddhism.

This Nima is joking, no matter how inflexible his brain is, his thinking will not be so different from Brother Wang.

People can think of six benefits, but he can't think of it at all, and if he says it, he will lose the dead.

When this was spread, he, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, was a little embarrassed.

Li Shimin couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and then hit Wang Chen's arm with his elbow a little sluggishly.

"Brother Wang, you're too exaggerated, how can you have six benefits?"

"You might as well tell me first, what is the proper way for you to arrange this proper arrangement?"

Wang Chen immediately snapped his fingers, and then leaned back on the back of the chair in a somewhat chic manner.

"It's very simple, replace the few retinues that were originally assigned to Master Xuanzang with two thousand elite Tang soldiers. "

"In the name of protecting Master Xuanzang, escort him all the way to Tianzhu, set off from Yumen Pass, take the road in the Western Regions, and bypass the plateau in the southwest. "

"Go around in a big circle, and finally turn around to the location where Tianzhu is. "

Li Shimin was suddenly frightened again.

Send 2,000 troops to follow all the way, and make a big circle from Chang'an City to Tianzhu.

Something doesn't feel right.

Is this preparing to go to war, or protecting Tang Xuanzang as he travels west to learn from the scriptures?

You must know that what Shopkeeper Wang emphasized in his words just now is a full 2,000 elite Tang soldiers.

Don't underestimate this number, if it is an ordinary Tang soldier, it may be thousands of people who are nothing.

can be exchanged for elite soldiers, and two thousand are enough to easily beat a small country in the Western Regions.

What are the benefits of this?

The curiosity in Li Shimin's heart was completely attracted, and he was extremely curious to know what earth-shattering actions his brother Wang could use to borrow this matter.

Li Shimin immediately divided five by two, and ate the last bit of mille-feuille in his hand.

Then he wiped his mouth regardless of the image.

"Shopkeeper, don't hang my appetite, talk to me well, let me enjoy it. "

Wang Chen smiled a little smugly, and then gestured on the table.

"Then let's talk about it little by little, and let you have a plan in your heart. "

Li Shimin hurriedly nodded violently, and his mind began to become active.

"First of all, this first point is the issue of the Western Regions, although my Datang has now won the world, the Western Regions has always been in the hands of my Datang. "

"But after all, it is thousands of miles away, and there is also the plateau where the Tubo State and Tuyuhun are located, as well as the narrow strip formed by the Turks, which separates the vast Central Plains from the Western Regions. "

"From the end of the Sui Dynasty to the second year of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty, it can be regarded as a long period of time, and the connection between the Western Regions and the Central Plains has actually been weakened. "

"Although the envoys sent by my Tang Dynasty will be warmly welcomed and extremely respected by the state capitals of the Western Regions, at least the small countries in the Western Regions will inevitably be a little slack. (Good)

"The combination of these small countries in the Western Regions will make the huge Western Regions region more and more out of the control of the Central Plains. "

"Therefore, sending two thousand elite soldiers, in the name of protecting Master Xuanzang, to go to Tianzhu with a detour to the Western Regions can play an extremely powerful deterrent role. "

"As soon as those small countries in the Western Regions saw the arrival of my Tang Heavenly Soldiers, they were all regular armies with excellent weapons and extremely good armor and equipment. "

"Orders and prohibitions, showing extreme eliteness, and even being able to practice in idleness. "

Such a simple move is enough to make the countries of the Western Regions, and some not-so-honest state capitals, more and more afraid of the strength of the Tang Dynasty in their hearts, so as to settle down. "

"From front to back, it doesn't take much effort and cost at all to be able to play such a wonderful role and directly stabilize the entire Western Regions. "

"However, this is only the first point of benefit. "
