"Ding! The new border has been established. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Curved Plow Design!”
In his mind, the system's voice was as pleasant as ever.
Meanwhile, the master of the system, Western Liang King Li Ye, had already arrived at Liangzhou City.
It had to be said that all these years, what Li Ye wanted to do the most was to see Li Er suffer.
Therefore, the moment the system mission was issued, Li Ye did not hesitate to personally go into battle and lead his troops to deal with the Tang army!
"Liangzhou City isn't small. It seems like it can be used as a capital in the future.”
"If it were to develop, Liangzhou would obviously be a very suitable place for trade, and it would also be equivalent to stopping the lifeline of the Great Tang's westward expansion.”
"Li Er must be gnashing his teeth right now, right? However, this was only the interest!”
In the city lord's mansion, Li Ye was talking to himself.
"Young Master, these are the reports sent by the Liangzhou City Lord.”
"The people who fled the city before have all returned one after another.”
"However, most of them are still waiting to see. This is also because of Young Master's wise decision. Other than the Tang army, there was no bullying and slaughtering of the people, so this situation happened.”
Beside Li Ye, Li Xue Yan was hugging a stack of books and was reporting to him.
In his words, Li Xue Yan was now his secretary.
Moreover, this secretary was very competent.
If there was anything, the secretary would do it. If there was nothing…he would follow the secretary.
There didn't seem to be anything wrong with that.
Looking at Li Xue Yan's charming appearance, Li Ye felt relaxed and happy.
He reached out and pulled the beauty into his arms.
" Young Master…It's daytime now…" Li Xue Yan's face turned red.
But at the same time, she felt a little happy.
The Young Master who was usually serious was in a completely different situation from the Young Master in real life.
After a few days of adapting, Li Ye did not have the imperial aura that was difficult for ordinary people to approach. That kind of situation only appeared in the court and during meetings.
Usually, the rising reputation of the Western Liang King gave people the feeling that he was a rich second-generation heir.
"Haha, what does that matter?"
"If I'm still bound by those rules and can't do anything as the Xi Liang King, what's the point of being a king?”
Li Ye smiled maliciously and let go of Li Xue Yan.
"But that's true. There's still a lot of things to deal with. In my opinion, this official position can't be too big or have too much power.”
Li Ye pinched the space between his eyebrows and said with a headache.
"Call Sun Bin and Xiang Yu over, I have something to ask them.”
Li Ye casually instructed.
Soon, Xiang Yu and Sun Bin arrived.
"Greetings, King!"
"Greetings, King!"
Li Ye gestured for the two of them to do as they pleased and said,"Did you encounter the Tang army at the new border? Is there any movement from Chang 'an?"
This was what he was most concerned about.
After taking down Liangzhou City, the population was currently insufficient. Li Ye had no plans to expand for the time being.
To fight steadily was the foundation of a prolonged battle.
"Reporting to my king, the Tang army has retreated to Weizhou. We haven't detected any large-scale activities of the Tang army for the time being.”
Xiangyu enunciated each word clearly, and there was even a hint of pride in his voice.
My king is outstanding. It's a waste of talent not to go out to battle these years!
This time, if it wasn't for Li Ye settling things down first, Xiang Yu might have wanted to take down half of Tubo!
"Calm down, calm down!"
With just one glance, Li Ye could almost see through Xiang Yu.
Ever since this warmonger had followed him ten years ago, he had been training his soldiers every day. It had really suffocated him.
"What else do you think, Military Advisor? Our territory is vast now. If we rest and build up strength, how long will it take for us to enter the normal stage?”
Li Ye turned to Sun Bin and asked seriously.
War was about money.
Without a stable and prosperous economy, war was only a temporary solution.
The people of the present age did not understand. They felt that the Western Regions were barren and could not compare to the rich resources of the Central Plains.
But Li Ye was a transmigrator hack!
This kind of economic corridor is an important connection point of the Silk Road. It's the cornerstone of development that we've been dreaming of!
"What plans does Your Majesty have?"
Sun Bin's plan was pretty much explained yesterday, including the setting up of the border. It was also Sun Bin's idea.
On one hand, it was to give the Great Tang the illusion of a truce.
On the other hand, there was a good reason. Liangzhou fell because they took the initiative to attack. If they continued to fight, it would be considered an invasion.
The reputation of invaders had never been good in the history books.
Unless they could conquer a unified dynasty, only then would they be able to make a name for themselves in the history books and record the achievements of the victors.
"I've already drafted the decree. You can see if there's anything else you need to add.”
"In my opinion, Liangzhou should be stabilized first. Although assimilation is a little harder than conquest, it is better in the long run.”
"The future is not far away. I hope to hear from the people that we are the people of Xi Liang, not the distant concept of the Central Plains and the Western Regions.”
Li Ye looked at Sun Bin and slowly said.
