Fighting for the Dayuan Kingdom may lead to a new round of Central Asia war between the Western Regions and Ogedei.

"The population of Ogedei is 20 million, and there is Tolei's Western Regions Protectorate. Huo'an has to cross the Pamirs to attack Dayuan and has to cross the Pamirs. The supply line is long, so I'm afraid it's not the opponent of Ogedei."

Chu Tian weighed the pros and cons, and he could only say that the terrain of the Western Regions Protection Palace was unfavorable.

The Han and Tang dynasties tried to control Central Asia, but they were not strong enough, mainly due to the influence of the terrain - the Pamir Plateau, Tianshan Mountains and Altai Mountains formed a vast city wall.

The Pamir Plateau is several thousand meters above sea level and is known as the roof of the world, and is extremely majestic.

It is difficult for enemies outside the city wall to come in, and it is difficult for the Han army inside the city wall to fight out.

If the enemy outside the city wall is weak, it will not be difficult to fight out. If the enemy outside the city wall is strong, it will be extremely difficult to cross the Pamir Plateau.

During the reign of Emperor Wu of Han, General Li Guangli led the Han Empire expeditionary force and crossed the Pamir Mountains twice in a row to attack the Dayuan Kingdom. The first time, Li Guangli failed to expedition for tens of thousands of people, which took two years, but as a result, the surviving soldiers were not one ten.

However, it is not impossible to cross the Pamir Plateau.

During the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, the Tang general Gao Xianzhi crossed the Pamir Mountains many times, attacked Xiao Bolu and Shi Kingdom in Central Asia, and even fought with the Arab Empire (the Great Food Kingdom) in the era of Great Conquest.

In the last Western Regions War, the expeditionary forces led by Chu Tian and other princes of the Han Empire crossed the Tianshan Mountains in the cold winter and attacked the Yili River Valley, and also created miracles.

"Let Huoan restrain Wogedei. If necessary, send troops to interfere with Wogedei, but it cannot trigger a war between Central Asian civilizations."

Chu Tian finally asked Huo An to be careful and interfere with Ogedei's actions. He could no longer withdraw and went on an expedition to the Western Regions again.

After the decision, Chu Tian thought of arranging Huo Qing to the Internal Affairs Department of the Xia Palace, so he looked through the account books of the Internal Affairs Department on a whim.

The Internal Affairs Department is in charge of the inner treasury of the Xia Prince's Mansion, and this money is controlled by Chu Tian himself, which is different from the treasury of the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of War.

The gold and silver used by Chu Tian to reward his subordinates mainly came from the inner treasury silver in the Xia Palace.

Chu Tian set up the Internal Affairs Department and then became the manager of the Sage. The one who really operates the Internal Affairs Department was still Xia Tianliang.

He had not checked the income and expenditure of the Internal Affairs Department for quite some time, and only knew that the Xia Palace was never short of money.

"Twenty-seven thousand taels of gold, three and sixty-two thousand silver..."

Chu Tian saw the account books of the Internal Affairs Department and his mind was blank.

A few years ago, he was still poor and had only a few hundred taels of gold and silver that he controlled. Now, these gold and silver are worth millions of taels of silver together!

These are not the treasury silver of the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of War, but the silver that Chu Tian could control at will.

"One hundred tea shops, two hundred silk shops, thirty farms, private money shops, inns, canal fleets...and even pig farms?"

Chu Tian looked through the account books, his eyes becoming more and more surprised.

Xia Tianliang has been investing silently in recent years, acquiring various assets and fleets. Before he knew it, the Xia Prince's Mansion was as rich as a country.

Just Chu Tian’s gold and silver were enough to pay the military pay and supplies for a 100,000 army of one year.
