A centipede has a hundred feet, but it cannot walk as fast as a snake; a rooster has two wings, but it cannot fly as fast as a crow.

A horse may travel a thousand miles, but it cannot go by itself without a rider; a person may have lofty ambitions, but he cannot achieve them without luck.

I have heard that in this world, wealth and honor cannot corrupt one, and poverty and humbleness cannot change one. Confucius, who was the best writer in the world, was imprisoned in the State of Chen; Taigong, who was the best in military strategy, fished in the Wei River.

~~~"

Wang Zhen picked up the paper on the table and looked at it. After putting it down, he asked Xu Zheng, "Why did you write the gentleman's warning? Have you done anything wrong recently, or do you feel a little bit overwhelmed?"

Xu Zheng curled the corner of his mouth and looked at Wang Zhen who was standing as straight as a spear. He was a little confused as to why his second senior brother was thinking of joking.

"With the great support of the master, none of us brothers will get carried away. As for doing something wrong, that is even more impossible. I am writing this for Bilus."

Wang Zhen thought about it and nodded, "That's true. We have already demonstrated our military strength, and the Persians will not do anything rash for the time being. Once your majesty and sir send the people we need, there shouldn't be any major problems."

However, Persia is the gateway to the west. If the Tang Dynasty wants to move out from the land and plot its way to the endless West, assimilating Persia is something it must do.

Even though much of the knowledge in the encyclopedia was not useful in Persia, Peroz never missed a copy and would always buy it once it was updated, because there were so many useful things in the encyclopedia.

Those were from the Taoist temple, and only a part of it, and they might be some superficial things. After all, even if Wang Zhen had a high status in the Tang Dynasty, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty would not let him know all the secrets of the Taoist temple.

After receiving Xu Zheng's warning, Bilus just smiled faintly. He once lived in the Tang Dynasty for a period of time. Because he envied the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, he studied Chinese classics diligently and could basically understand the warning.

Passing the warning to Nan Sheng, Bilus said with a smile: "See if you can understand it. This is what Xu Zheng wrote for me."

This is one of the reasons why I can't resist.

Persia is too far away from the Tang Dynasty. There are huge differences in customs and culture. It can even be said that they are two completely different situations.

Bilus sighed and said, "Encyclopedia is certainly not the most advanced knowledge in the Tang Dynasty. After all, encyclopedia is just a popular folk book in the Tang Dynasty. The purpose of popularization is just to make people's life more convenient.

Nan Sheng took it and glanced at it, then nodded and said, "I've seen this and I know what it means. Don't we have someone who specializes in studying the Tang Dynasty's encyclopedia?

Wang Zhen smiled contemptuously and asked, "Given his level of knowledge of Chinese literature, do you think he can understand your warning? And do you think he can do anything else?"

Nan Sheng thought for a moment and asked, "Isn't the Tang Dynasty afraid that one day someone will thoroughly understand the encyclopedia and develop better than the Tang Dynasty, thus threatening the Tang Dynasty?"

Bilus smiled and said, "That has to be done under the protection of the Tang Dynasty. After all, we are not the only ones who have obtained the encyclopedia."

After all, we are too far away from the mainland of the Tang Dynasty. Even if you and the Tang Dynasty are powerful enough to shock the world, some things can be avoided if possible."

Moreover, these warnings are actually included in a complete set of encyclopedias, and anyone with a little money would buy a set of encyclopedias, not to mention a prince like Perrus.

As a result, the time and cost required for assimilation are naturally incomparable.

"Even if he doesn't understand, there are always people around him who can understand. Just because he can see the situation clearly doesn't mean that everyone around him can understand the current situation. Although we are not afraid, it is always good to save some trouble.

Rumor has it that there was a Taoist temple in the Tang Dynasty. It was previously managed by Wang Zhen’s teacher, who was also the chief steward of the Tang Dynasty. Later, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty became worried and moved the entire Taoist temple directly into the palace.

Ministers once said that as long as the encyclopedia was thoroughly studied, Persia would be able to gain a firm foothold. Some people even lamented that if the encyclopedia had been obtained earlier, Persia would not have fallen to its current state.

From here you can actually see how important the gym is. You have also witnessed the endless methods used by Wang Zhen when attacking the city.

Nan Sheng was stunned for a moment and asked, "Brother Wang, do you mean that the knowledge in the encyclopedia is not the best in the Tang Dynasty? How is that possible? The knowledge in the encyclopedia has far surpassed that of Persia. According to the ministers' inference, if the knowledge in the encyclopedia develops normally, it will take us at least several hundred years to reach that level."

Bilus asked back with a strange look in his eyes: "Will you give your best things to others?"

Wang Zheng and Li Zhi also reached a consensus on this point. Although the matter was not urgent, it had to be done. This was an eternal foundation that had no shortcuts, and they could only persevere step by step.

Xu Zheng was not so optimistic. He sighed and said, "We can't relax. After all, assimilation takes time. After all, Persia is too far away from the Tang Dynasty. Although there is communication, it is only superficial. It is still different from the surrounding areas of the Tang Dynasty."

This is not a question of trust or not, but the self-preservation instinct of every king, not those tricks that are kept in reserve. Just the ones used by Wang Zhen are enough to make people despair.

So, Nan Sheng, put away your little thoughts. Overestimating one's own capabilities can sometimes bring disaster. Xu Zheng just wrote a warning to us, which can be regarded as giving you a way out. Isn't it better to just come down like this?"

Nan Sheng was silent for a long time and finally nodded, saying sincerely: "I understand, don't worry, brother Wang, I will try my best to restrain the ministers, at least before Wang Zhen and his men completely defeat the Ala army, nothing will happen.

I may not be able to care about what happens next. After all, everyone has their own ideas. They gather around me for their own purposes, and they are not really loyal to me. Brother should understand this, right?"

Bilus nodded and said with a smile: "This is enough. As for after the war, with Wang Zhen's ability, as long as he can free up his hands, those ministers will only seek their own death."
