Comprehensive martial arts: Summon Li Chungang and ask Wu Zetian for advice

Chapter 251 Will you choose Da Qin?
At this time point, the Ming Dynasty was at its peak, and all countries were eyeing it.Attacking the Tang Dynasty at this time will undoubtedly reveal the ambitions of the Ming Dynasty, which will make other countries more fearful and unite to attack the Ming Dynasty.

Other countries will not understand the relationship between lips and teeth.

Although the Ming Dynasty is now in great power, its military strength is still insufficient compared to other countries.

Moreover, this time the Ming Dynasty attacked Datang, the enemy it had to face was not only Datang, but also other countries.

This also means that the Ming Dynasty may face attacks from the three countries of Qin, Han, and Sui at the same time.

The military strength of the Ming Dynasty army is not as good as that of other countries, and it has to resist the coalition forces of other countries at the same time.

Being surrounded by enemies on all sides, no matter how you look at Ming Dynasty, there is not much chance of winning.

Compared with other countries, the foundation of Ming Dynasty is still too weak.

Before the Ming Dynasty, it was possible to win every battle because of the Ming Dynasty's invincible immortality.

However, under the wars between various countries, although the ability and role of the Immortal Realm cannot be ignored, it has gradually lost its former deterrence.

By then, the Ming Dynasty will have insufficient troops and its shortcomings in combat power will be completely exposed.

In this severe situation, if Ming Dynasty is not careful, it will make a fatal mistake, which may even lead to its destruction and the collapse of the country.

By that time, even the Ming Dynasty had invincible land gods.

But the most they can do is defend a Forbidden City and resist stubbornly.

Although the flag of the Ming Dynasty may still be there, it is only a city.

That was a city lord, not an emperor.

At that time, if we wanted to restore the current prosperity, it would be as difficult as climbing to the sky.

After hearing Zhuge Zhengwo's words, everyone's faces became gloomy and silent.

There was silence in the huge palace, and the atmosphere became extremely depressing.

After Zhuge Zhengwo's reminder, everyone suddenly woke up and realized how dangerous the situation Ming Dynasty was facing now.

At this time, the problem of Ming Dynasty’s insufficient foundation was completely exposed.

If the Ming Dynasty had not fallen into such a state, it would not be what it is today.

And not just now, even if the Ming Dynasty dominates the world in the future, the Ming Dynasty's foundation is still insufficient.

The endless emergence of land gods, although their power is irresistible, makes the world fear them.

But the world is so vast, and governing the world requires a huge team of officials and talents.

If the Ming Dynasty wants to unify the world, it cannot have shortcomings in that aspect. It must not only have an advantage in the Immortal Realm, but also surpass other countries in terms of national strength, army, talents, etc.

However, if Ming Dynasty wants to have such a foundation, it still needs time to accumulate.At this critical moment, recuperation is particularly important.

However, at this moment, the young emperor Zhu Houzhao wanted to take the initiative and attack Datang.

This left everyone confused and confused, making it even more difficult to accept this decision.

In their view, Zhu Houzhao's move was undoubtedly a risk, and it was tantamount to pushing Ming Dynasty into a situation where there would be no recovery.

But facing this situation, Zhu Houzhao smiled and said lightly: "I know that other countries will not stand idly by, but this is the result I want."

"Is this the result you want?"

Zhu Houzhao's sudden words were astonishing, shocking everyone present and making them even more confused.

Under this situation, taking the initiative to attack the powerful Tang Dynasty was like a moth flying into a flame, and would undoubtedly lead to self-destruction.

This was an extremely unwise strategy that shocked and incomprehensible everyone present.

They didn't understand what benefit Zhu Houzhao would do to Ming Dynasty?
Although Zhu Houzhao's previous behavior was domineering and reckless, there was also some understanding in it.But now, they couldn't figure out the reason why Zhu Houzhao did this.

Faced with everyone's confusion, Zhu Houzhao was not angry, but a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Zhuge Zhengwo was also very satisfied with Zhuge Zhengwo's opposition, because this was enough to show that Zhuge Zhengwo was not a flatterer, but was truly loyal to the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Houzhao was condescending, overlooking the puzzled ministers, smiled, and said: "I am very aware of your concerns."

"Yes, the best thing for Ming Dynasty now is to recuperate and develop vigorously."

Having said this, he paused briefly and his tone gradually became colder: "But do you really think that other countries will give Ming Dynasty time to continue to recuperate?"

"This is the information Dongchang collected from other countries. The Sui Dynasty has withdrawn its army, and the Qin Dynasty has gathered millions of troops and is ready to prepare."

As soon as he finished speaking, a confidant eunuch circulated a report to the civil and military ministers.

Seeing this information, everyone's expressions suddenly changed.

It turned out that all the countries in the world had already responded to the Ming Dynasty without knowing it, and had long been plotting against the Ming Dynasty secretly.

From beginning to end, recuperation was just their wishful thinking.

The countries no longer intend to allow the Ming Dynasty to continue to develop like this, but to completely curb the Ming Dynasty.

But even so, taking the initiative to attack the Ming Dynasty still carries huge risks.

"Your Majesty, even so, our Ming Dynasty's initiative to attack the Tang Dynasty still carries huge risks."

Zhuge Zhengwo frowned, his face was gloomy, he stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "The Sui Dynasty and the Han Dynasty don't look like people who live in a corner no matter how you look at them."

"We, the Ming Dynasty, might as well send envoys to unite the Sui Dynasty and the Han Dynasty to fight against the Qin Dynasty."

In his opinion, this is the best method. It can be said that Da Qin and Da Han have a long-standing feud. Their relationship is like fire and water, and they are extremely difficult to deal with.

As the most powerful country after Great Qin, the Han Dynasty would never allow the Great Qin family to dominate, and would definitely try its best to contain the Great Qin.

Therefore, to a certain extent, Ming Dynasty and Han Dynasty have a basis for cooperation.

If there is a real alliance, Ming Dynasty will not have to take huge risks to attack Datang Dynasty.

In this way, it not only solves the current crisis of Ming Dynasty, but also prevents Ming Dynasty from being in danger of overthrowing.

"Ok!"

Zhu Houzhao nodded, his face remained calm, and he said without sadness or joy: "The outcome you mentioned is certainly possible, but if I were Liu Che, I would definitely not choose to cooperate with Ming Dynasty."

"Not cooperating?"

Zhuge Zhengwo couldn't help but be stunned, and then asked in confusion: "Please forgive me for being stupid!"

"There are many ways to contain the Qin Dynasty, and it doesn't necessarily have to involve the Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Houzhao smiled faintly, looked into the distance, a wise look flashed in his deep eyes, and said calmly: "After the Dragon Slaying Battle, Liu Che already knew the power of the Immortal Realm of the Ming Dynasty. His relationship with the Ming Dynasty is like water and fire, and it is not necessarily much better than that of the Qin Dynasty. .”

"If you were Liu Che and had to choose between offending Ming and Qin, would you choose Da Qin?"

"Choosing to be the enemy of the Ming Dynasty means fighting outside the boundaries of the Ming Dynasty. Choosing to be the enemy of the Qin Dynasty is tantamount to bringing the war to the territory of the Han Dynasty."

"When two powers invade each other, will you choose Da Qin?"

Having said this, Zhu Houzhao also glanced at everyone present and said word by word: "Besides, I also hope to see this kind of situation."

"The attack on the Tang Dynasty will certainly lead to the coalition forces of various countries, which is a huge crisis, but at the same time, the crisis is also an opportunity."

"In ancient times, six countries allied forces to fight against Qin, but in the end they collapsed internally. The interests of all countries in the world are complicated, how can they please be united?"
