Jingwen took Wang Xuance back to the palace and made a preliminary report on Pei Ju's recommendation of Wang Xuance to envoy to the Western Turks. Li Shimin also has a great headache for the Turkic state. The commercial and trade interests of the Silk Road were enough to tempt the impoverished Li Shimin, because several of the policies now in place required large sums of money. If there is no capital from the Western Regions, Datang will probably have a tight life next. Therefore, we must find a way to get money, otherwise we will not be able to achieve revival at all. And as long as the reorganization of the Datang Bar's army is completed, after the combat effectiveness is greatly increased, the Western Turks can be destroyed immediately, and then the Western Turks can be eaten.

"If I remember correctly, it should be the Yehu Khan of the Western Turks who has just ascended to the throne, and this Yehu Khan doesn't seem to be able to get the support of the Turkic tribes, so we can take the opportunity to take advantage of it." Li Shimin said.

And Jingwen immediately said: "Your Majesty, just because we can go up and down, we can ask a capable person to contact the Turkic tribes, and then overthrow this Ye Hu together, and then let the Turks form a federation at that time." And, by themselves, they run for the position of Khan, and then we can profit from it. ”

Li Shimin also has to say that this kind of federalism can be said to be a cheating thing. Let them change from martial arts to cultural fighting, and only in the case of cultural fighting, Datang will be able to gain a lot of benefits. If it were normal, they would fight to the death, and Datang would not be able to gain too many benefits. However, in this kind of federalism, in fact, the chiefs are not completely fixed, they also have a certain term, and they are not completely ruled by a family, so they are finished. Li Shimin did not know that this method was actually a republic, elected by the people themselves.

However, playing a republic during the Tang Dynasty, this can only be said hehe. Ancient China was not suitable for playing a republic, otherwise it would be self-defeating. And this is actually a big pie for those Turkic tribes, and then they can fight on their own! And Datang only needs to support this with peace of mind. Just suppress that and maintain balance. Playing conspiracy, can't the Tang Han people still play those grassland reckless men? The Tang Dynasty can accumulate wealth through the Silk Road, and the rapid development of the country can be destroyed when the time comes.

"Well, when the time comes, we can also play this method against the countries of the Western Regions!" Li Shimin said.

"The emperor is wise!" Jingwen said.

Jingwen originally just wanted to play this method against the Western Turks, but Li Shimin immediately thought that he could play this method in the countries of the Western Regions. In fact, the various dynasties of the Central Plains Dynasty were not able to directly control the Western Regions, and they only set up a coordinating body, the capital protectorate. As for the countries of the Western Regions, they are still scattered. Unable to glue together. If this federalism gives the Western Regions a Western Regions Federation at that time, it will be equivalent to unifying those kings, and then forming an army in a unified manner, and as long as the military power is collected under the management of the Tang Protectorate, then the Western Regions will completely become the territory of the Tang Dynasty. This kind of federal system, for those scattered places, can tighten the control, can temporarily glue them together, so that the cost of outsiders to meddle is much lower. If the original Tang Dynasty wanted to manage a small country in the Western Regions. This requires a very detailed intervention. But if they can form a federation, then it will be much easier for Datang to intervene. As long as the time is ripe, Datang can bring those scattered places to the central government at one time, and it will not be impossible to manage them in a unified manner as in the past.

"Jingwen. You guy who can't pay for his life, this idea can make a lot of scattered small countries glue together, and then I, Datang, can eat it with one mouth. Now it's just a few of us, and I don't play any nonsense. Your method is really amazing! And it is an irresistible attraction, because those small countries inevitably want to take this opportunity to become the hegemon of the Western Regions, but is this hegemon so easy to be? This federalism is tantamount to drawing a pie for them. And then let them fight each other, and lose their roots. When the time comes, I, Datang, can completely use power to eat them. It is equivalent to giving full play to the advantages of our Han people's strategy to the extreme, and it can greatly make up for the results of my expedition to the Tang Dynasty. However, I must not be able to implement this kind of federation within the Tang Dynasty, otherwise it will be a disaster for the country! Li Shimin said.

"The minister knows that this kind of federation is too tricky, and it can't be played well at all." Jingwen said.

Jingwen didn't know that even in later generations, the federal system was very tricky. In order to have a federal system, many conditions are required. Many pig-brained guys in later generations actually mentioned the implementation of federalism in China, and this Jingwen had to complain. If a federal system is implemented in China, it will be tantamount to the beginning of the division of China. Some pig-brained angry youths saw that many powerful countries were federal, so they completely ignored the idea of adapting to the water and soil and proposed to play federation in China. So Jingwen really has nothing to say about this kind of second goods.

As for Jingwen's proposal for this federal system, that is, to use those places where the power is too scattered, and then let them form a relatively large country with the mud. And this kind of country is actually just manipulated by the Tang Dynasty. At that time, Datang can swallow it in one bite, instead of slowly cannibalizing it like in the past, which is too inefficient. And if you send troops to encroach, it will require a lot of troops. And Jingwen's federal system is tantamount to using power to expand the territory, rather than using any military force. However, this federalism is just a rag that will be thrown away when it runs out, and it will definitely not allow federalism to take root in China.

"Wang Xuance, since he is Pei Ju's apprentice and recommended by Pei Ju, then I will believe him. After all, Pei Ju's ability is also understood. Passed the decree and appointed Wang Xuance as the envoy to the Western Turks, as for what should be done, you should understand, right? Li Shimin asked.

The so-called Turkic envoys in the West are still the concept proposed by Jingwen back then, the concept of ambassadors abroad. However, at present, only a small number of countries have exchanged envoys with Datang, and only those who have special tasks or have been kicked out because of mistakes will be pulled to be ambassadors abroad. Now Wang Xuance's duty is to stir up internal chaos in the Western Turks, and then fool them into implementing a federal system as an envoy of the Tang Dynasty, which means that they will be unlucky.

"The minister will definitely complete the task and live up to the trust of the emperor and Lord Jingwen." Wang Xuance said excitedly. (To be continued......)
