Chapter 440: Not cost-effective

Views:

"Go!" Li Chengqian's thoughts were confused. When Li Shimin called him, he didn't immediately react. It can be seen how important that position is to him. Li Shimin's deep gaze looked at Li Chengqian, who was dumb and at a loss, and said sharply. Said: "Go and let him come over!"

Li Chengqian refused in his heart, but his feet couldn't stop moving, because this was the emperor's will, and he was not as bold as Li Kuan to confront the emperor openly. Because he is a prince, there are many things he can't help but he must always maintain the royal majesty, and he, the prince, is the prince. If he is like Li Kuan, he might be punished.

"Father, the minister dare not go beyond the ritual system. This is the honor of the Ninth Five-Year Plan. How can the minister He De have this qualification?" Li Chengqian just turned around, and Li Kuan hurriedly bowed to speak, preventing Li Chengqian from coming towards him. I like this position, sit comfortably, and have a relaxed life!"

The anger on Li Shimin's face disappeared a lot, he glanced at Li Kuan lightly, and said, "What did you call me just now?"

"Father!" Li Kuan was taken aback. He remembered that, and thought to himself: "Isn't he yelling right?"

"Call it again!" Li Shimin said astonishingly. Everyone almost fell to the ground. Wu Gonggong pursed his lips. Li Kuan was so startled that his jaw dropped. Following Li Shimin's intention, he shouted several times: "Father!"

Li Shimin felt at ease. He didn't know when he started to like to hear Li Kuan calling himself like that, as if he hadn't heard it in a long time, nodded contentedly, and said righteously: "From now on, whenever you like This is called."ァ新ヤ~⑧~1~Chinese web ωωω.χ~⒏~1zщ.còм

"Chen Zongzhi!" Li Kuan wanted to cry without tears, but just wanted to hear himself call him "father"? There is no need to make him feel scared. He almost died. Even if he was joking, he had to have a bottom line. Li Kuan looked at Li Chengqian apologetically, but the latter turned a blind eye to him. Li Kuan sighed, "It's still a trouble!"

Li Shimin saw Li Shimin's every move and shook his head secretly, Changsun Wuji seemed to see the ugliness, and felt anxious in his heart. Li Chengqian’s approach has disappointed Li Shimin. The reason why he asked Li Chengqian to invite Li Kuan was not to let Li Kuan inherit his throne, but to test whether he could tolerate others and whether he cared about brotherhood, especially Li. Kuan also cured his legs, and now it seems that in front of the throne, these can be forgotten.

Once upon a time, Li Chengqian did his best for Li Kuan and spared no room to help each other. Only in the past year, the relationship between the two has changed so much. Li Shimin watched Li Chengqian's contribution to Li Kuan, and he admired his behavior very much. He hoped that Li Chengqian could do what he failed to do. However, things went against his wishes. Li Chengqian's desire for power remained undiminished, and he could even say that anyone blocked him. Succession to the throne is his enemy.

When Li Shimin came here, he knew what Li Chengqian was thinking, and he shouldn't be so temptation if he knew that. Li Shimin adjusted his mood and continued to discuss national affairs. At the moment, Xue Yantuo clearly wanted to take the opportunity to invade the Tang Dynasty. Now there is only one way in front of him, and that is to send troops to rescue the Southern Turkic Khan.

"Maogong, you are the Shangshu of the Ministry of War, how do you think you should fight this battle?" Li Ji, as the Shangshu of the Ministry of War, and a general who has been fighting all year round, was the first to express his opinion on military operations. Apart from Li Daozong, no one was present. Several people can match him.

Li Ji said solemnly: "The minister thought that the Xue Yantuo's Pearl Khan's invasion of the south was a premeditated matter. If only rescued by the Southern Turkic army led by Tully Khan, I am afraid that it will not be able to deter the wolf ambitions of the Pearl Khan Instead of being passively beaten, it is better to take the initiative and send troops from the five directions of east, west, north, south, and central to attack the side as the best policy."

Li Shimin asked: "What is the specific offensive line?" The new Bayi Chinese website first launched www.(x81zw).comm./x81zw/.com

"Yingzhou, Shuozhou, Lingzhou, Gyeongju, Liangzhou, five soldiers and horses together to attack!" Li Ji replied, "A combination of five soldiers and horses can not only relieve Shuozhou’s difficulties, but also solve the problems of Shuozhou. The Turkic trap led by Libi Khan can also defeat the enemy force very well, shocking the heart of the Pearl Khan invading south."

Li Shimin asked again: "Can you destroy Xue Yantuo's tribe in one fell swoop?"

Li Ji pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "The time is not yet ripe, I may not be able to do it! If my Tang army attacked Xue Yantuo's tribe, it would be a stalemate battle. If the time comes, we can take this opportunity to take down Xue Yantuo's tribe in one fell swoop. ."

Li Shimin was slightly disappointed. He intended to take this opportunity to destroy Xue Yantuo's tribe. Li Ji's analysis made him have to reconsider this matter. If it can be eliminated, Li Shimin will send a large army northward to attack with all his might.

Li Ji has guarded the combined state for 16 years and participated in the Northern Expedition. His analysis has its own truth. At the same time, Li Ji's words also told Li Shimin that now is not the best time. It is only a few months since the demise of Gaochang State. If another war breaks out, it will definitely affect the foundation of Datang, especially the expeditionary operations. Competition of national strength.

In the Northern Expedition of the Tang Dynasty, Xue Yantuo's tribe needed to consider the right time, the right place, and the right people. Now it will be the twelfth lunar month in the cold winter in a few months. Li Daozong also went to Tubo, knowing that the journey will be difficult, not to mention fighting, even the whole team will be very difficult.

The Zhenzhu Khan wanted to invade the Tang Dynasty south, and Emperor Taizong also longed for the northern expedition to Xue Yantuo. As long as Xue Yantuo's tribe was destroyed, the territory of the Tang Dynasty would expand as never before. The West Turkistan Jieli Khan was defeated, and Xue Yantuo's tribe had also contributed. Now the Western Turks have disappeared. The old Jieli tribe is under the leadership of Qili Khan. They are called more often in the Tang Dynasty, and the official name is "East". "Turkic", Xue Yantuo's Zhenzhu Khan is called "Southern Turk".

Li Shimin immediately issued an edict and ordered the commander Zhang Jian of Yingzhou to lead the cavalry of Yingzhou and Xi, Fei, Khitan and other countries to jointly send troops to attack Xue Yantuo's eastern border; Li Ji, the Shangshu of the Ministry of War, was the commander of the Shuozhou Road marching, led 60,000 troops, and 1,000 cavalry. Two hundred people, stationed in Mayi County, and the East Turkic Army led by Tuli Khan attacked Xue Yantuo's army; General Li Daliang from the Right Guard was the commander of the Lingzhou Road march, led an army of 40,000, 5,000 cavalry, and garrisoned Yuling. Wu; Youtunwei general Zhang Shigui was the commander of the marching on Gyeongju Road, leading an army of 17,000 people, and attacked from the middle road; Li Xi, the governor of Liangzhou, known as the general manager of the marching on Liangzhou Road, led an army of 10,000, and attacked from the west road.

"The edict: Chu Wangkuan, a guerrilla general officer, was promoted to general Zhongwu, and went to Shuozhou to resist Xue Yantuo's tribe with Li Ji, the official book of the military department!" Li Shimin suddenly issued an edict, and Li Kuan was so scared that his three souls and seven souls were scattered. , Staring at Li Shimin in disbelief, crying and thinking: "General Zhongwu used me to charge for the battle. He is still a loose official with no power and a false name. It's not worthwhile!" (End of this chapter)
