The Indians have been ambitious in the past few days with the support of the Tang Dynasty.

Although Datang does not support their development in the shipbuilding industry.

However, if you spend money to buy some older sea boats from Datang, you can still consider it.

Using these sea boats, the Indians could not make any big noise in the West.

But near their own sea area, they still have some say.

"Now, more and more merchants in the Tang Dynasty are starting to appear in the West, and there are also many merchants in our country who purchase goods from Qiwang Port or Puluo.

After a while, everyone's understanding of the Tang Dynasty will naturally increase.

In addition, we have been constantly venturing with the country before, telling the threat of the Tang Empire to us.

The Caliphs and the others would obviously reconsider how to treat the Tang Empire.

On land, General Ali had already led an army of 100,000 toward the Western Regions, which were mentioned by the Tang people.

Although my relationship with Alibaba has never been very good, I have to say that his abilities are still good.

I am quite confident that he will lead a hundred thousand troops to the war.

At that time, we will start to create all kinds of things for them in the west of the Tang Dynasty and pull them to fight us in the Western Regions.

Restricting the development of the Tang Dynasty.

On the other hand, we have accumulated strength on the Western side, and when we are next year or the year after, we will formally send troops to take down the King of Qi Port.

As long as the King of Qi Port was occupied, the Tang Dynasty's tentacles on the Atlantic side would be cut off.

However, when we use the King of Qi, we can completely control the West.

We can even strike while the iron is hot and occupy the Puluo built by the Tang people.

I heard that it is the largest city in the entire Nanyang area.

Not only are there all kinds of goods gathered together, but there are also some workshops that we cannibals do not have.

Once there is attacked, the shock to the Tang Dynasty will definitely be very great.

At that time, we can constantly attract the Tang people to come to fight with the West.

For the empire, if there are always fighting at sea, the construction of the navy will definitely be very important.

Not only can the empire continue to expand the navy's manpower, but it can also allow the empire to continue to expand the scale of shipbuilding workshops and build more warships."

Muaweiye obviously hoped that the Great Food Empire would attach importance to the development of the navy.

Within any country, there are differences in positions and conflicts of interest between civil and military officials.

Similarly, among military generals, the positions of the navy and the army are even more different.

In this era when the construction of the navy was generally not so important, Muaweiye made a lot of efforts to make the Great Food Empire pay attention to this.

So far, it has achieved a little effect.

"Yes, I heard that the Tang Dynasty has set up a special agency to impose taxes on all goods entering and leaving the port.

Although most of the tax rates are only 10%, they cannot withstand the huge amount of goods imported and exported every year.

Therefore, the Tang Dynasty imposed a lot of taxes in this area.

Many of these taxes were used to develop naval commanders and build warships.

Although as a businessman, I definitely hope that the more preferential the taxes in the empire, the better.

But as a great cannibal, I still hope that the navy can continue to develop and grow, so that we can have greater development overseas.

Only then can you really get more benefits.”

Hassan's proposal surprised Muaweiye.

Just as Hassan himself said, businessmen definitely hope that the lower the taxes the country will collect, the better.

Where can anyone take the initiative to raise taxes like Hassan?

But Muaweiye likes it.

Hassan has a very strong influence in the Persian Port business district, and can even be said to be the leader of merchants.

If he came forward to propose the levy of commercial tax, it would definitely be better than Muaweiye himself proposed it.

The most important thing is that there was no tax in this area before.

Now that it suddenly appears, it is very likely that I will propose to develop the navy and get the recognition of the court.

"Hasan, no wonder the Caliph trusts you so much. Compared with ordinary merchants, your awareness is indeed very high."

At this moment, Muaweiye decided in his heart that he would still bring Hassan with him next time he went to the King of Qi Port.

At that time, the spoils in Qiwang Port can be selected first.

Doing this yourself can be considered a reward for your kindness, right?

"General, I am also a cannibal. Contributing to the empire is what I should do."

Hassan said modestly.

"I got news from merchants who came back from the sea that the Tang Dynasty has been increasing its efforts to build the South and the West over the years.

In addition, the Indians and the Tang Dynasty are also in a relationship. Do you think we should find a way to delay the Tang Dynasty?”

Although Hassan is just a businessman, his vision is still very good.

So Muaweiye is also willing to discuss some major events with him.

"The general's proposal is very good. Actually, I also have a suggestion that I want to discuss with the general. " "What proposal is, but it's okay!" Although the current naval forces of the Tang Empire are relatively powerful, but they are so big in the West, their navy cannot guard every naval ship.

At this time, can we encourage some people in Persian Port to go out to sea to act as pirates and rob Datang merchant ships?

He even directly arranged some navy personnel to go to sea to rob the Tang Dynasty merchant ships.

Doing this can supplement the funds for our navy construction on the one hand, and on the other hand, it can also restrict the Tang Dynasty merchants from entering the West.

Gradually, this area will return to its original appearance and will still be the world of our Dashi merchants."

Hassan's proposal is still very vicious.

In normal combat, everyone may not be very enthusiastic.

But if it is a robbery, everyone is still very motivated.

After all, this is related to your wallet." If you do this, will Mecca have any opinions?

Muaweiye was obviously moved.

But he also has concerns.

My subordinates are all regular soldiers. If they act as pirates, it will still be bad after all. "As long as it is beneficial to the empire, we will give some of the benefits to the relevant people, who will jump out and get along with us?"

Hassan's words left Muaweiye with nothing to say. "Then let's try it first, but be low-key."

...

Qi Wanggang.

Concubine De looked a little restless during this period.

"Empress, Your Majesty will definitely return in triumphantly. I have asked the staff of the Navy.

It will take at least half a month to get to the Great Cannibal side from our port.

If you want to enter the hinterland of the great cannibal, it will take longer.

Although the army can definitely defeat the cannibal in a breeze, it will take some time.

So in a short period of time, Your Majesty should not have returned to Qiwang Port so soon.

I guess I have to wait until the New Year is over.”

Liu Lanxuan naturally knew very well about her own empress.

Although he decided to leave Chang'an City, he had already made up his mind that he would never see Li Shimin in his life.

But now that I can see Li Shimin again at the King of Qi Port, I naturally have some thoughts in my heart.

Especially when she saw that Li You had made a lot of achievements in the King Kong of Qi, she had refreshed her understanding of her son.

So she hopes that her son will become successful, so she naturally hopes that Li Shimin can take a look at Li You again.

She knew it was impossible to reply to the title of King Qi.

But as long as Li Shimin shows his favor a little, Li You's life will be much better.

Everyone is a cognitive person, and what they value is Prince Li You's identity.

As for the title of title that is enthroned, although it is also very important, it is not that important.

"I know this too, but after the fleet left the King of Qi Port, no news came back. Isn't it that I am also anxious?

If His Majesty can return in triumph this time, he will definitely be in a very good mood.

No matter what I ask him for, it is possible to succeed.
