He said lightly: "Don't be too happy first, I Datang is not a charity organization, so it is naturally conditional to help you."

  "His Royal Highness, please tell me that my Roman Empire will not let the Tang Dynasty pay for nothing!" Andrew said quickly.

  Hearing this, Li Ke finally showed a very familiar smile on his face, and said, "Sure enough, since this is the case, then we don't need to talk nonsense anymore, just sign the agreement!"

  As he said that, Li Ke took out a piece of paper directly from his arms and gave it to Andrew.

  Andrew took the paper subconsciously, opened it and took a look...

  "This is!?"

  Seeing him exclaimed in an instant, the whole person was dumbfounded.

  He stared at Li Ke with a stunned look on his face. He stared at the piece of paper and couldn't stop saying, "You...you...when did you make this thing?"

  I saw the agreement in Andrew's hands, nothing else, it was the agreement that Datang wanted to help the Roman Empire force the Arab Empire's army, and the Roman Empire had to pay the agreement.

  There are a dozen points listed above, and each point is accurate to what time, what area, and how to deliver these things.

  Seeing this, Andrew was really dumbfounded. No matter how stupid he is now, he can know that the Prince of the Tang Dynasty had this idea from the very beginning!

  Otherwise, how could people even make the agreement in advance.

  But I didn't know it at all, I thought everything was under my control, I thought I was fooling the Tang Dynasty, but who knows, now I am completely caught in the quagmire without knowing it!

  Until now, he didn't understand everything.

  But the current situation is completely controlled by Li Ke, and he has no choice at all.

  Seeing Andrew's confused look, Li Ke just smiled and said, "Ben Gong always likes to be efficient, so before coming here, Ben Gong guessed that this protocol would be used, so he prepared in advance. Alright! It’s great now, don’t waste time, I, Tang Dynasty, can take action at any time, and this… isn’t that what your Roman Empire needs?”

  Li Ke put his arms around Andrew's neck and said, "This palace is really thinking about your Roman Empire, otherwise, this agreement will be delayed for a few months, and in these few months, your Roman Empire can support it. come down?"

  "So, stop the ink, sign it! It's a good brother, and this is the only way Ben Gong is so enthusiastic!"

  Andrew was about to cry when he heard this.

  Who is your good brother.

  You play me like a monkey, you really think I don't know!

  And you look at what you wrote above?

  You want one-tenth of the mines in the Roman Empire, including one-tenth of all mines in gold, silver, iron, copper, mercury, etc., and [-] tons each will be shipped to the Tang Dynasty within a month!

  Also, in addition to this, you also want [-] craftsmen from the Roman Empire, a map of our city's construction, a map of the underground water pipeline, [-] of our various books, and our technology. And the seeds of crops...

  Nima!

  You are going to hollow out the bottom of my Roman Empire!

  You're too embarrassed to say it's a brother!

  Said you were enthusiastic!

  You are clearly a robbery, you are a robber, you are taking advantage of the fire!

  Andrew is really about to be depressed. He can imagine how much trouble he will be in if he signs this agreement and goes back!

  Li Ke seemed to see through Andrew's hesitation, he laughed and said: "Andrew, this palace is really for your sake, but you also know how much hatred we will attract from the Arab Empire if our Tang Dynasty takes action, and the Arab Empire will treat me greatly in the future. Tang, what kind of madness would it be!"

  "We have huge risks. If there is no corresponding benefit, the ghost is willing to do it!"

  "Of course, Ben Gong is not forcing you. If you are confident and able to withstand the pressure of the Arab Empire adding more than one million troops, then Ben Gong will not say anything, and will form a cheerleading team to cheer you on. !"

  As for the Roman Empire, Li Ke was clearly determined.

  After all, Li Shimin and the others didn’t understand the status quo of the Roman Empire, but Li Ke didn’t know what it was. He studied history, and he also clearly knew the history of this period. The Roman Empire was almost cut off by the Arab Empire, and there was no resistance. A large amount of land was occupied by the Arab Empire.

  It can be said to be miserable to a certain extent.

  And at this time, since the Roman Empire asked Datang for help, why didn't Datang just say something?

  Moreover, the conditions proposed by Li Ke seem very harsh, but they are also within the scope of the Roman Empire. After all, the Roman Empire has paid a similar price in history.

  Therefore, this time, the Roman Empire has really become the treasury in Li Ke's eyes. Originally, Li Ke was still a little worried. In eight months' time, the national strength would not be able to support Datang's preparations for war.

  but now……

  With the big vault of the Roman Empire, everything is no problem!

Chapter [-]: Emperor Tang: Ke'er, you are the rebirth of Emperor Wu!

  Li Ke's voice resounded loudly in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

  As for the Roman Empire, at least in the Tang Dynasty, there was absolutely no second person who knew better than him, so he was very aware of the urination of the Roman Empire.

  Now the Roman Empire is only infested by the more powerful Arab Empire, so it is unable to expand.

  Otherwise, perhaps the enemy of the Tang Dynasty would not be the Arab Empire, but the Roman Empire!

  After all, the first country to embark on the road of bloody expansion was the Roman Empire!

  Li Ke knew nothing about the methods of the Roman Empire.

  He raised his head and looked at Li Shimin, and said, "That's why my son is targeting the Roman Empire. It's not that the Tang Dynasty really only cares about interests, but that the Roman Empire is untrustworthy. What we need to do is to find a way to maximize the Tang Dynasty It’s just for the interests of the people, and with whom to cooperate and with whom, the purpose is just that.”

  Li Shimin had no doubts about Li Ke's words. He knew that Li Ke was very knowledgeable, so it was not surprising that Li Ke knew these things.

  It's just that he didn't expect that in this world, in addition to Caliphate, there is actually such a powerful country, and this country is actually so bloody.

  He pondered for a moment, and then said: "Then in your opinion, do I, Tang Dynasty, want to assist the Roman Empire?"

  Li Ke said: "Naturally, we have to help. After all, we want to receive other people's benefits, so we have to make some achievements."

  "Just now you didn't say that the Roman Empire is not a good thing. If we help it, will it end up being too big for me, and it will be dangerous to me, Tang Dynasty?" Li Shimin asked with a frown.

  Li Ke shook his head and said: "Father, although the Roman Empire is not a good bird, it is still far from my Tang Dynasty, and the threat to my Tang Dynasty is actually limited!"

  "And now our real opponent is the Arab Empire. We must have a clear understanding of this. The strength of the Arab Empire, at least for now, is really difficult to deal with only by me, the Tang Dynasty, so it is also possible to make appropriate use of the remaining forces. necessary!"

  Li Ke said indifferently: "The Roman Empire wants to take advantage of our Tang Dynasty, so why don't I want to take advantage of the Roman Empire? You know, in the eyes of the Arab Empire, the Roman Empire is the fattest prey, so as long as the Roman Empire does not annihilated, the Arab Empire will never really use all its strength to deal with my Tang Dynasty!"

  "And the Roman Empire, to be honest... It's not easy to really destroy it, so as long as the Roman Empire exists, my Tang Dynasty, at least in the short term, will not really suffer a disaster, and these times are my Tang Dynasty. The most missing one!"

  Great powers compete against each other, hidden dangers.

  This is like two people with ill-conceived hearts meeting each other. They both know each other's ill-conceived hearts, but they still have to face each other and do the same behind the scenes.

  They are confident in each other that they can count each other and get benefits.

  But before the final result comes, it is really impossible to predict who is the one who is calculating and who is the one who is being calculated.

  At least now, the Roman Empire must have thought that they had calculated Datang, even if Andrew's performance was so painful, but he could agree so readily, it is not necessarily that he really thought he had suffered a big loss.

  Therefore, the present Tang Dynasty and the Roman Empire are like this.

  They both knew that the other would not treat each other sincerely, but they had to unite and calculate with each other.

  But who is really capable, only time will tell them.

  However, this is generally the case, and now the situation is different.

  Because... Li Ke is too different, Andrew's diplomacy relies on his own vision and gambling, but what about Li Ke?

  Li Ke never relied on luck. He relied on historical records and the food given by his ancestors.

  And this has also led to this confrontation, perhaps now, it has already come to a conclusion.

  He smiled and said: "Besides, my Tang Dynasty really lacks minerals, technology and gold and silver, and now, I have nothing to do to send some soldiers to carefully harass the Arab Empire, so that the Arab Empire has If you are worried, you don’t dare to send troops casually, and if we do something so simple, we can get those funds, so why not do it?”

  "Is the Roman Empire really going to give us the things in the treaty as promised?" Li Shimin asked with a frown.

  Li Ke shook his head and said: "Of course not, we are shrewd, and the Roman Empire is not stupid, in the back, they will definitely find various reasons to prevaricate, or simply not give it, or shirk it, or even pretend to be stupid. !"

  "But it doesn't matter, it's all about the back, but at least in the early stage, it didn't dare to do this, because as long as I don't cooperate with them in the Tang Dynasty, once the Arab Empire fully deals with the Roman Empire, the Roman Empire will inevitably resist. live!"

  Li Ke's face was full of confidence. At this time, he was talking and laughing with an empire that was one of the best in the world in the palm of his hand. In the eyes of Li Shimin and others, even if Zhuge Kongming was alive, it would be nothing more than that.

  He continued: "So, according to my minister's estimation, at least after the autumn harvest, the Arab Empire will swept over to my Tang Dynasty again, and the Roman Empire may turn its face, but then... I got everything that Tang should get. , the resources that should be used to increase national strength have also been obtained, and it does not matter if it does not turn its face."

  "After all, if we lose to the Arab Empire, then the Tang Dynasty will not exist, and we can't see if they turn their faces!"

  "And if we win, my Tang Dynasty will be very powerful. A country like the Roman Empire that bullies the soft and fears the hard, has been defeated by the Arab Empire. How dare it dare to touch the edge of my Tang Dynasty?"

  "so……"

  Li Ke shook his head, and Chengzhu said in Hungarian: "I will try my best to facilitate this, and I will try to lure Andrew into the pit."

  Li Ke's words were so eloquent, and Fang Xuanling and the others were both shocked and intoxicated.

  They really never thought that in such a half hour, His Royal Highness would think so much, not only counting the present, but even thinking about the future so thoroughly.

  Now, the road in front of Datang is an absolute road of prosperity!

  And all of this made them really admire Li Ke from the bottom of their hearts, and they admired him to the extreme.

  Fang Xuanling couldn't help nodding, and said, "His Royal Highness's strategy and tactical strategy are truly admired by Xiaguan. His Highness's wisdom is like the stars in the sky, and Xiaguan can only look up!"

  ... 0 0

  "Listening to what His Royal Highness said today, it is better than ten years of study, and the lower officials admire it!" Wei Zheng also bowed to Li Ke with a stern face.

  Not to mention the warriors Yu and Li Jing, there were little stars in Li Ke's eyes.

  And Li Shimin couldn't help nodding, he said, "Ke'er, your vision has already surpassed me, and I am ashamed of myself compared to you!"

  "Since this is the case, you are solely responsible for the affairs of the Roman Empire, and I will be a hands-off shopkeeper in the back!"

  Hearing the words, Li Ke hurriedly bowed and said: "My son and minister obey the order, the father and the emperor rest assured, and with the support of the Roman Empire, after August, I will not be afraid of the army swept by the Arab Empire, the Great Tang... ...will win!"

  "it is good!"

  Li Shimin gave a direct and hearty shout and said, "You are the future of the Tang Dynasty. If you can have such a belief, the Tang Dynasty will have such a belief, and my Han family, my belief will not fall, and we will not perish!"

  "In ancient times, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty faced the Huns, and his situation was much worse than mine, but a country of Han, a family of Han, who fought hard and did not lose their faith, cast the Great Wall of steel with flesh and blood, and finally defeated the Huns. drive away!"

  "Also, the general Huo Qubing went on a direct expedition to the Xiongnu, sealed the wolf to live in Xu, and revived the world! Since then, there have been no alien races in the Central Plains!"

  "The ancestors can do this, what do I have to fear in the Tang Dynasty? Ke'er, you now have the style of Emperor Wu, your strategy, courage, and domineering are not weaker than Emperor Wu!"

  "I know that in this respect, I can't compare! But you are not weak at all, so today's Caliphate is like the Huns of yesterday!"

  "I believe that sealing the wolf to live in Xu, chasing troops for thousands of miles, and inspiring my Tang Dynasty style, this is not far away!"
