Now that Li Kuan is back, Li Shimin can better ask about the border situation.
Knowing the result, Li Shimin was satisfied. He originally wanted Li Kuan to resist Tubo's attack, but he didn't expect Li Kuan to kill all the men in Tubo directly. If everyone can exceed the task like Li Kuan, Li Shimin I feel like I can wake up with a smile in my dream.
Bai Qi said at this time.
"Your Majesty, I followed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince all the way. His Royal Highness is amazing in force, and he was even better at using military tactics to defeat the 20 Tubo army with guerrilla tactics. Then he led us to fight in Tubo and killed all the Tubo men. "
Li Shimin pondered for a moment, his serious eyes fell on Li Kuan, and said.
"Kuaner, when the Tang Dynasty was developing, we needed men to do coolies. After defeating Tubo, we could turn Tubo men into captives for us to drive and become our slaves. Why did we kill them? ?”
"Now that there is enough food in the Tang Dynasty, men don't want to do hard work. It would be best if slaves were allowed to do it."
Although there was no complaint in the words, everyone could hear the teachings in Li Shimin's words clearly.
Li Shimin felt that although Li Kuan's behavior was good, he did not proceed from the overall situation. If the male men in Tubo could be captured and then work for the Tang Dynasty, this would be the best result.
Chapter 370
Li Kuan explained with a smile when he heard Li Shimin say that he wanted to turn Tubo males into slaves.
"Father, it's not that I have never thought about turning all the males in Tubo into slaves, but the Tubo people are wild and unruly. Letting them become slaves will harm Datang sooner or later, which is not good for us."
It is not that the Tang Dynasty has never done the matter of enlisting other countries as slaves. Now hearing Li Kuan's remarks, Li Shimin couldn't help asking.
"They have all become slaves, and they are all driven by us. How can it be against us again?"
Li Kuan pointed to Bai Qi and said.
"General Bai, tell your father about what happened in Songzhou City last night."
Bai Qiqiu nodded, and said with emotion in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, last night, when we held a grand celebration banquet, 10,000+ of your Tubo captives rebelled collectively and captured the barracks in the outer city of Songzhou. If His Royal Highness did not turn the tide this morning, Songzhou City might be occupied by Tubo captives. "
"These Tibetan captives will not be willing to become slaves of our Tang Dynasty. As long as they have the slightest chance to make trouble, they will resist without any room."
A trace of caution flashed in Li Shimin's eyes.
He understands the status of Songzhou City, if it is really captured by Tubo captives, attacking Tubo this time is equivalent to wasting all previous efforts.
Having figured this out, Li Shimin laughed and said.
"Good kill, these guys are really good kills!"
"Kill them, and we will have no worries, so as not to stay in the future, it will be a disaster forever."
Li Kuan also agreed with a smile.
"Father is right. Since the barbarians in Tubo don't want to compromise, we will kill them all. Only then can we regain peace in the Tang Dynasty."
For Li Kuan's words, Li Shimin agrees very much now, but he still has doubts, so he asked.
"Kuan'er, I'm not familiar with the land of Tubo, Tang Dynasty, do you think we can manage it well?"
The Tang Dynasty was a farming civilization and made a living by farming, while the Tubo people were nomadic people who mainly raised cattle and sheep. The national conditions were different, and the way of life was even more different. If the Tang Dynasty managed rashly, there might be many conflicts.
Li Kuan smiled.
"Father, you are worrying too much. Although we are a farming civilization, we also have experience in raising cattle and sheep, and there are methods of animal husbandry in the Tibetan scriptures, which can help the people of Tang Dynasty to quickly adapt to the nomadic life."
"Besides, all the men in Tubo are dead. Now they are soldiers of our Tang Dynasty. Tubo has become a safe place. When we draw the map, the people of Tang Dynasty will be able to go to Tubo in a steady stream. Sooner or later It will become a part of our Tang Dynasty."
Hearing this, Li Shimin nodded in satisfaction.
What Li Kuan said made sense. As long as Tubo and Tang Dynasty were assimilated, there would be no problem. After all, if Tubo had no males, it would be equivalent to having no resistance, and it could be transformed in any way it wanted.
As long as the transformation is completed, Datang will be integrated with Tubo, and Datang will be able to completely include Tubo.
Li Kuan's remarks and suggestions made Li Shimin very satisfied, and he couldn't help but praise.
"Kuan'er, you are worthy of being the crown prince of my Great Tang Dynasty. You already have the style of a hero, even more powerful than me, who is the father and king."
Hearing Li Shimin's praise, Li Kuan smiled calmly.
"Father is absurd. My son's knowledge is not as good as one-tenth of yours. I am just a wild crane with a little inconspicuous ability."
"If it's possible, I'd rather not be the crown prince and just live in my own mansion. Do you have anything else to say? If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."
Li Shimin's mouth twitched.
He was stunned and couldn't understand what Li Kuan was thinking.
The emperors of all dynasties were afraid that their sons would usurp the throne because they were too capable, but seeing Li Kuan's appearance, not only did he not want to usurp the throne, but he was also afraid that his power would be too great, and he wished to have less power and be a free and easy man.
As for court affairs and power struggles, Li Kuan is also called a loose one, and he doesn't want to get involved at all.
This made Li Shimin very desperate. He agreed that the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. Li Kuan really wanted to be a shopkeeper.
"Kuan'er, you can't talk nonsense. You are the current crown prince, and the Great Tang Dynasty will be handed over to you in the future. If you are so lazy, how can I pass on my Great Tang Dynasty forever."
This made Li Kuan unhappy, he was still young, and he didn't want to be chained to Daming Palace by the government affairs of the court, so he said hastily.
"Father, you are now in good health, not to mention decades, or even hundreds of years. Why should I think about being an emperor?"
"The Great Tang will last forever in your hands, why should I think so much about it?"
Li Shimin was speechless.
