Gu Tianya suddenly felt like he was feeling, looking at the Lord Ruoqiang who was sitting there drinking from a distance, and said, "Actually, this person is really smart, and he is also called decisive in his work. He was surrounded by those Western Region countries just now, and he instantly made up his mind to sell out three percent of the benefits. Although this was due to the helplessness of the small country and the small people, it was also a good opportunity to take advantage of the opportunity to gain allies."

He sighed slowly and said with admiration: "Only those who know how to cut interests can go higher. He only paid the city gate tax for five years and only had three percent of the tax revenue. However, he tied all the countries just now onto the chariots, and from then on, he needed to help him withstand greater pressure."

Li Shimin looked into the hall, his eyes swept across the guests, and he pondered: "Xiaowan Kingdom, Kucha Kingdom, Qiemo, Yanqi, Pishan, Xiye, Cheshi Former Kingdom, Cheshi Hou Kingdom..."

The emperor pointed out the names of these countries one by one, and said with a deep meaning: "All small countries have few people and few lands. Although the country is rich, its military strength is weak."

How could Gu Tianya not know what he meant? He said: "The country has money, but the soldiers are weak. This situation is before the general trend of the world. Even if there is no crime, it is an unavoidable crime. So they actually want to find an alliance. The act of surrounding the Ruoqiang king just now may not be intimidation!"

Li Shimin nodded and pondered: "It's not like siege and intimidation, but rather like a tacit understanding. Maybe they have reached an agreement in secret, and they just deliberately made this scene for people to see."

He said with a smile and said, "It is probably for you, the Lord of Youzhou."

Gu Tianya smiled the same way and said, "It may also be for you, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty..."

The two brothers looked at each other and said at the same time: "It turned out to be for us to see."

Why do these small countries have to show them this?

It is nothing more than using this method to show their strength.

Their national strength is indeed very weak, but they are not weak when they are united.

This is equivalent to telling Gu Tianya and Li Shimin that they will advance and retreat together in the struggle for interests tonight. After more than a dozen small countries formed an alliance, their strength is worthy of Gu Tianya and Li Shimin's attention.

Li Shimin looked at the lords of those small countries again and said meaningfully: "Those who can take on the monarch..."

Gu Tianya smiled and said the rest of the words for him, saying, "It's really a very ordinary person!"

The two brothers looked at each other and saw the tacit understanding in each other's eyes.

The alliance of small Western Regions just now needs to be slightly increased.

When people unite, they are both rich and soldiers.

It must be treated as a big customer!

It's not embarrassing to eat...

...

For small countries in the Western Regions, joining together to keep warm is a last resort.

After all, the big interests of Youzhou New City are about to start. If they want to get a piece of the pie, they can only join each other.

If you don’t join forces, you won’t be strong.

Even if they can grab some share of profit tonight, they may face a situation where they cannot defend themselves after grabbing.

For example, the 100,000 yuan invested by the Ruoqiang king to Gu Tianya.

It has obtained thirty years of tax revenue from Youzhou City Gate.

What a joyful and joyful benefit this is, but any country dares to come to him to fight for Qiufeng.

The reason is very simple. Other countries have small people but have big interests.

Even though he is not strong enough, why do he make a fortune? Then others want to ask him for this money, and if he doesn't want to give up, he will beat him up if he wants it.

There is no morality between countries.

Weak but wealth is the greatest sin.

Therefore, these small countries formed an alliance and won attention by joining the group to keep warm.

They have indeed won the "value" of Gu Tianya and Li Shimin.

...

Small countries are sad and have to join forces in this way. However, for those powerful big countries, they themselves have power that cannot be underestimated.

For example, the grassland Turks.

This is still the number one existence today.

Not only are the troops strong, but the wealth is also great. The Turks must definitely participate in the competition for the interests of this banquet tonight.
