But I feel that the situation in recent years may become more and more complicated. When you are away, you should bring more guards by your side to avoid being plotted against.”

Wei couldn't find a particularly good reason to convince Wei, so he had to choose to compromise.

...

"Hasan, I think you look not very good. Has the business not been going well recently?"

In a port of the Great Food Empire, Muaweiye and Hassan were eating mutton in a large tent, commingling with some recent events.

"Hey, General Muaweiye, you also know that my main business before was to sell linen.

However, under the impact of Datang cotton cloth, there is no market for linen cloth.

If it weren't for the fact that the empires fought south and north in recent years, thousands of farmers who had lost their survival foundation would have emerged in our country.

Fortunately, I transformed in time and started the cotton cloth sales business.

At the same time, some tea and sugar were sold throughout the empire, which slightly restored the previous unfavorable situation.

However, this business has been difficult to do in the past two years. More and more merchants from India and Datang have dared to come directly to our Dashi Empire to do business.

If the situation continues, it will be very unfavorable for us."

Hassan and Muaweiye are both figures from the same faction, and they are both serving the Hashem family where the third caliph of the Great Food Empire is located.

So they don’t think there will be anything wrong with some taboo words.

Hassan obviously has some special purposes for complaining to Muaweiye in private.

Before, Dashi merchants were able to monopolize Western trade because the Dashi Empire had no rivals in the Western Conference.

Naturally, the Dashi merchants obtained the most abundant benefits in Western trade.

When Marx talked about economics, why did he have to call it "political economy"?

That's because the economy and politics are completely inseparable.

"The Tang Dynasty is indeed becoming more and more arrogant now.

They took Puluo Zhonghe Qiwang Port as their bases, and kept taking some uninhabited ports for themselves.

In addition, they also supported the Southern Heavenly Kingdom and the Northern Heavenly Kingdom in India, providing them with a large number of weapons and supplies.

What makes people feel most indignant is that I heard that some of the declining nobles of the Persian Empire were contacting the Tang people and looking for their support.

Initiate a rebellion in the original place and overthrow the rule of our Great Food Empire.

This is absolutely unbearable.”

Muaweiye should be the worst-affiliated general in the Dashi Empire with the Tang Dynasty.

There is no way, who made the entire Dashi Empire, he is the only one who has suffered a defeat at the hands of the Tang Dynasty?

Although after the failed attack on Qi Wanggang, Muaweiye had already thought of the reason when he fled back.

First, the fleet was hit by a hurricane and suffered heavy losses.

Then he was accidentally surrounded by the Tang people's fleet, so he lost his troops and generals.

Such lies, if you investigate them carefully, will be easily exposed.

But with Muaweiye's management, everything was easy to say.

"Yes, if the Tang Dynasty's forces were not driven away from the West, then our situation would be more passive in the future.

Now on land, our soldiers are invincible and invincible.

With one victory after another, Ali became the most famous general in the entire Dashi.

But we know best that Alibaba’s ability is actually not as good as you.

But they chose the land direction, and there was no opponent that could be seen.

Unless they keep going east and finally meet Tangren, they may suffer a loss."

As a large merchant in the Great Food Empire, Hassan naturally has a certain understanding of the situation in the entire world.

A few globes that flowed out of the Tang Dynasty have been brought to the Dashi Empire.

Although few people are willing to believe in the situation on the globe, Hassan learned through this globe that the Great Food Empire was actually very close to the Tang Dynasty on land.

At that time, there will be conflicts with the Tang Dynasty on land, and conflicts will occur at sea.

So is it mainly based on land attack or sea attack?

This involves many aspects.

To put it bluntly, the choice of this strategic direction will affect the interests of a lot of people.

If land is chosen as the offensive direction, many resources within the Dashi Empire will be tilted towards related aspects.

For example, the shipbuilding workshops within the Dashi Empire will definitely be restricted, and orders will definitely not be able to increase explosively.

Similarly, if you choose to use the sea as the direction of attack, you will definitely have to invest a lot of money to make warships.

And the scale of the navy needs to be further expanded, so many people have the opportunity to be promoted.

Taking advantage of the fact that the dilemma is not yet in a dilemma, Hassan hopes to set the development direction as the ocean as soon as possible.

Obviously, Muaweiye also thinks so.

"If they really meet Tangren, after suffering losses, it will not be a good thing for us.

Because the empire has never suffered any losses on land, it will definitely want to take revenge.

In this way, the focus of development will become more and more land-oriented.

Because the Tang Dynasty was obviously not so easy to defeat.”

Mu Aweiye's words revealed a sense of contradiction.

But this is indeed the problem he said he faced.

"How about this, we will find a way to convince the Caliph to continue to expand the fleet and dispatch more ships to your command.

Then we will find an opportunity to attack the Qiwanggang again this year or next year.

It is best to completely occupy the King of Qi.

In this way, we can not only gain a lot of benefits from the Qiwang Port, but also regain control of Western business paths.

This is a very useful thing for our Dashi Empire or ourselves.”

Hassan finally made his own suggestions.

"If I think about this matter in detail, it is probably not as simple as we imagined!"

Muaweiye did not directly agree, but what he meant basically meant that he agreed to work in this direction.
