Suddenly, Li Shimin thought of something? Suddenly looked up at Merton, and said word by word: "You mean that the chest tightness and shortness of breath on the Tibetan Plateau, dizziness and weakness are due to lack of oxygen?" ”

"Lack of oxygen, of course. The ancestors of the Mohist family called it altitude sickness, because we ordinary people have been living in the plain, and suddenly arrived at the plateau, where the terrain is too high, the air is thin, and once the human body is hypoxic, the most direct manifestation is the purple lips and fingertips, which is not the symptom of people's hypoxia? Merton said suspiciously.

"Really?" The courtiers stared wide-eyed, how did they know what the lack of oxygen was.

"Your Majesty! Chen was once in charge of the criminal department's case files, and it has indeed been recorded many times that the victims in the cases of suffocation and death were purple lips and fingertips. According to Mo Xianbo, this is indeed a phenomenon of hypoxia. Li Daozong said that he used to be the secretary of the Criminal Department and was very sensitive to this kind of case.

"That's right! According to the reaction of the soldiers, it is true that many soldiers have this phenomenon in the many battles in Tubo and Tuhun Valley. Li Jing also confirmed it.

"Good, good! I didn't expect to crack the biggest secret of Tibet today. Li Shimin laughed heartily, and the previous depression was swept away.

He is still young and vigorous, and he is bent on making achievements, and for him, the ethereal theory of ghosts and gods is far less important than expanding the territory.

Relying on the topography, Tuhun Valley and Tubo repeatedly invaded the border of the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty also repeatedly counterattacked, but every time they pursued to the plateau, the soldiers would have chest tightness and shortness of breath, weakness in their limbs, and their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced, and they were often defeated by the Tubo soldiers who said that they would take the opportunity to defeat.

Now although the Tang Dynasty has a strong army, it can only occupy the defensive position in the face of Tubo and Tuhun Valley, which further fuels the arrogance of the two sides, and also preaches that it is blessed by the gods, and it is even more fearless.

"How did the ancestors of the Mo family overcome this altitude sickness back then?" Li Shimin asked eagerly.

"According to the records of the ancestors of the Mo family, they followed ten people, six of whom had severe altitude sickness and almost died, three of them had mild symptoms, and after three months, they gradually adapted to the same as the locals, and one person has been fine, the ancestors of the Mo family believe that this should be related to people's physique!" Merton Road.

"Something to do with physique?"

Several military bigwigs suddenly calculated in their hearts, one of the ten people is fine, and the other three can also slowly adapt, compared with the Tuhun Valley of Tibet, the biggest advantage of Datang is that there are many people, so that over time, it will be able to train a force that can fight on the plateau. When Tubo and Tuhun Valley did not have the advantage of altitude sickness, in the face of heavily armed Tang soldiers, it was not a big increase in the odds of victory, so the offensive and defensive momentum of Shuangshuang quietly changed.

"However, according to the records of the Mo family, there is a medicinal herb called Rhodiola rosea, which is very effective in treating altitude sickness!" Merton had another big surprise for them!

"Rhodiola?" Li Shimin was greatly surprised, and asked an official next to him: "Imperial Doctor's Order, can there be this kind of medicinal material!" ”

The gray-haired Imperial Physician Ling thought for a while, and suddenly said: "Back to Your Majesty, there is indeed this kind of medicinal material, this medicinal material is a good medicine for replenishing qi, but a little comes from Tubo every year. ”

"Very little!" Li Shimin and the military were immediately disappointed, it seems that Tubo also knows the effect of this medicine, and consciously controls sales, and a small number of medicinal materials are simply not enough to support the consumption of the army.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, this medicinal material is also distributed in the high mountains of the Qilian Mountains, and in the adjacent areas of the Nanzhao Dynasty and Tubo, this Rhodiola is also widely distributed, although it is not as good as the effect of Tubo, but it is also curative." Merton hurriedly confided what he knew, striving to make a meritorious contribution.

Looking at Merton's doglegs, Li Shimin couldn't help but laugh, but he couldn't let him go so easily, this group of leather children caused more and more trouble every time, the last time was to make a engraving printing cheat, and this time he actually made a large Kong Ming lantern to cause a commotion in half of Chang'an City.

Li Shimin groaned for a while, and shouted: "The four of Morton are stubborn and unenterprising, if they are not strictly disciplined, how can they serve the country in the future, and the four of them will be escorted down, and each of them will be beaten again." ”

"Top 10 boards?" Merton was dumbfounded, he didn't expect that he had worked hard for so long, and he would have to be beaten by the board, no matter how he said it, he could offset it!

However, Merton now wisely knew that he could not reason with the emperor, and was escorted down.

"Congratulations to the emperor, you have obtained this sharp weapon, and you have cracked the biggest secret of Tubo, and added two more magic weapons to my Tang Dynasty." The ministers immediately congratulated.

Li Shimin smiled smugly, although the four of Morton tossed again and again, but every time it brought him a surprise, this time, Li Shimin saw an opportunity to solve the old enemy Tubo and Tuhun Valley.

And Qin Qiong, Cheng Biting Jin, and Wei Chi Jingde also looked smiling, and they didn't feel how embarrassing it was for their children to play the board, except for the prince, whose children could be disciplined by the emperor himself, didn't you listen to what the emperor said, after discipline, will you serve the country in the future?

Many ministers looked at the three of them enviously, their children were still walking birds and fighting, and Qin Huaiyu and the three of them actually tossed out printing, hot air balloons, which are important weapons for the benefit of the country and the people, not to mention the famous Mo family in Chang'an.

This guy is more like a pervert, in terms of ability, he single-handedly turned Mojia Village from a poor and backward village into a rich village that everyone envies, and the fate of 5,000 people has changed because of this; In terms of learning, it is the art of overwhelming the entire country, and the poems are passed on to Chang'an.

In terms of status, and the theory of being in charge of a family, as soon as the ink technology exhibition opened, no one could underestimate the Mo family, and the Xian Qin doctrine may really regain its glory.

"Hey! Someone else's house child! ”

Li Shimin and all the ministers listened to the screams in the distance, but they didn't have the intention of laughing at all, but had a feeling that they were being beaten for not their own children. 、

Li Shimin's eyes turned, looking down at the two sacks of walnuts under his feet, and his eyes couldn't help but light up.

"Ahem! Pound, send these two big bags of walnuts to the harem, the princes have been studying hard recently, so make up for it? Li Shimin said unintentionally.

The ministers suddenly remembered the recent rumors about walnuts in Chang'an City in Chang'an City, originally they laughed at the rumors of eating walnuts to replenish their brains, but looking at the two big bags full of walnuts, and then looking at the huge hot air balloon in front of them, they couldn't calm down, could it be that the Mo family made walnuts really have a miraculous effect.

Whether it is the emperor or the minister, he may be ruthless to others, but his children are always the softest part of his heart.

Fang Xuanling thought about his second son, and stood up cheekily and said: "Weichen's second son, Fang Yiai, is also stupid, and I ask Your Majesty to give some walnuts to Weichen." ”

"The children of the Wechen family ......"

………………

In the end, Li Shimin only kept a bag of walnuts, and the rest was robbed by the ministers.
