Chapter 135: War is about to begin
After everyone digested it for a while, Wenyi continued: "I have already explained the matter of Lichu, now let's talk about the matter of King Yin. Before I talk about this, I want to make one thing clear, Your Majesty launched the Xuanwu Sect not for his own selfish desires, but really wants to make Datang better. Therefore, His Majesty did not do anything to King Yin and King Qi after ascending the throne, but gave them more power. Of course, His Majesty had also talked with them openly before this, and King Yin was also very supportive of His Majesty's decision-making, so this time His Majesty would let King Yin supervise the country. Putting aside old grievances, King Yin is very capable of handling internal affairs and is fully qualified to serve as a prisoner. β
Wei Zheng heard that Wenyi said that he was in a state of death, and stupidly picked up the wine jug and poured it into his mouth, and then bowed his hand to Wenyi and swayed out of the living room. Eldest Sun Wuji still wanted to dissuade him, but was stopped by literature and art: "Uncle Eldest Sun, it's normal that Wei Xiang can't accept it for a while, let's give him more time." Let him go back and think about it himself. β
In addition to the eldest grandson Wuji, Xiao Yu, and Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Kong Yingda and others were also stupid, and the heads of the 6 families who shared the silver were excited, it turned out that there was this reason for the training of the children of the royal family, so wouldn't it mean that the new emperor in the future might not be able to point out who it was, and it was very likely that he was the one who was trying in his own family! When the time comes, won't your own family soar into the sky? What a lucrative deal! I know that there is meat to eat with Wenxiang! In this life, you must firmly stand on the side of Wen Xiang in everything, otherwise how can you repay such a great favor!
The six people picked up their cups in unison, looked at each other and smiled tacitly, and said at the same time: "We have a glass of respect." β
Literature and art gave a look that everything was in the words, and drank all the wine in the cup. The eldest grandson of the old fox, Wuji, saw the strange behavior of the seven people in his eyes, rolled his eyes, picked up the wine glass and said to Wenyi with a smile: "Xiaoyi, although I don't know what agreement there is between you, but we are a family, why don't you let me get involved?" β
Wenyi shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Uncle Eldest Sun is really shrewd, you have discovered this." If you want to join, you can do it, but you need to be more or less interesting. After speaking, he stretched out his left hand and made a gesture to count the bills. The steel mill of the eldest grandson's family has been fully put into operation, operating at full capacity 24 hours a day, what is the silver of the white flowers pouring into his house like snowflakes, hearing that literature and art are not simple as long as money, the eldest grandson Wuji straightened his waist and said proudly: "As long as the problem can be solved by money, it is not a problem, and I will be counted as a part of this matter." β
Wenyi nodded and smiled: "Uncle Changsun, don't worry, please stay and talk about it later." β
Xiao Yu is also a good person, and when he saw that the eldest grandson Wuji couldn't sit still, he said that he would join at the moment. Literature and art do not refuse to come, and all of them agree. When the banquet was coming to an end, Kong Yingda sneakily pulled aside the literature and art and said embarrassedly: "Wenxiang, although our friendship is not as deep as that of the eldest grandson, I also want to join this plan." β
Wenyi raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Where is Master Kong, of course you can join if you want to." You'll join us later. After speaking, he was about to turn around and go back to the table, but was dragged by Kong Yingda again, and Kong Yingda blushed even more: "Wenxiang, there is still something to ask for in the future." β
Wenyi nodded: "Master Kong, please speak." β
Kong Yingda hesitated for a long time before he mustered up the courage to whisper: "My Kong family has been farming and studying heirlooms for generations, so the family is relatively poor. So... I would like to ask Wen Xiang for an idea. β
Literature and art are happy, and I thought that a family like the Kong family, which only reads the books of sages, disdained to do business, and it turned out that other families would also make money every day. Wenyi thought about it and smiled: "So that's the case, it just so happens that I have two ideas that can help you." I don't know if Master Kong is interested? β
Kong Yingda nodded hurriedly and said, "I would like to hear about it." β
Literature and art: "One is newspaper, and the other is printing. β
Kong Yingda was stunned: "What is a newspaper?" Printing is now being done by many families, although the profit is some, but not much. β
Literature and Art explained: "Although many families are also printing now, but you are Confucian orthodoxy, now there are more and more people reading in the world, the market is quite large, and I want you to be the boss of the printing industry, not as small as now." The words of the newspaper are even more incredible, if it is operated properly, let alone the daily income, it is not surprising that it is a daily income. β
Kong Yingda immediately smiled: "Thank you Wenxiang!" β
Wenyi nodded: "I'll talk to you after I finish writing the plan in a few days." Let's go back to the table and drink first. β
......
After the royal driver's personal expedition, the establishment of the prince, and the training of the royal disciples are all completed. Wenyi sent everyone away, humming a little song and returning to the study to prepare to help Kong Yingda write a newspaper and print a plan. The newspaper has long wanted to engage in literature and art, but Wang Erxuan, who was selected at the beginning, did not have the courage to succeed, and this time the Kong family, who was replaced by a bull fork, must have no one to dare to make trouble anymore. Printing Literature and Art wanted Kong Yingda to print some official books, such as "Dictionary", "Dictionary", "Children's Enlightenment Books", "Imperial Examination Classics" or something. Nowadays, because the major families have printed a lot of books in order to improve their prestige, but they are all traditional books such as the Four Books and the Five Classics, and there is still a great lack of basic and comprehensive books. If the Kong family can get these two things done, then it will be easier for Datang culture to be broadcast!
As soon as Wenyi picked up the pen and wanted to write, he said: "Young master, Your Majesty announced that you have entered the palace." β
Wenyi patted his forehead, Li Shimin must be waiting for his news, but he forgot about it, this is not the performance of a good employee.
When literature and art came to the palace, Li Shimin was deducing the war with a group of generals in the Taiji Palace. Wenyi stepped forward and saluted: "Weichen greets Your Majesty." β
Li Shimin beckoned to him and said, "Come and see how I deploy, and whether I can defeat the Turkic army with 3,000 Xuanjia troops." β
Wenyi looked at it and said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, according to your tactics, you can completely annihilate the enemy army!" Perfect! β
Li Shimin heard that the tone of literature and art was not quite right, and couldn't help asking: "Shouldn't you completely annihilate the enemy army by listening to your tone?" β
Wenyi nodded and said: "Your Majesty, we are vigorously carrying out infrastructure construction and need a lot of labor, and there are too few people in our Tang Dynasty alone." The strategy of showing the enemy to be weak is to take more prisoners as laborers. You are all wiped out at once, the minister is very distressed, that is 100,000 first-class laborers! β
Everyone laughed when they heard this, and Li Shimin couldn't help but wonder: "The Northern Turks have always been a big problem in the Central Plains, how come you have become a pig slaughtered at will, and you still want to capture the Turkic army of 100,000 alive, aren't you afraid of rebelling after capturing them back?" β
Wenyi said contemptuously: "It's only 100,000, and it's not 1 million, it's trivial." The minister has prepared 50 sonic tanks and 10 warehouses of tranquilizer bombs, not to mention 100,000, even 1 million will be all destroyed. β
Li Shimin raised his eyebrows: "Good boy, the supplies are ready." Well, you'll be in charge of the logistics this time. I must get Jieli back this time! β
At this time, Wang Junxian, the commander of the Xuanjia Army, asked: "Wen Xiang, this is the first time that the Xuanjia New Army has entered the battlefield, so it's not good to use narcotic bullets instead of live ammunition, right?" β
Wenyi waved his hand: "Don't worry, this is a war between *** and cold weapons, the strength of the two sides is not at the same level at all, they will only be slaughtered unilaterally by us, so there is no need to worry." Besides, the new army of Xuanjia has the protection of hope armor, but it is no problem to defeat the Turks and save their lives. β
Li Shimin nodded and said, "Yes, this war is just a game for us to catch strong men." Now let's redeploy and try to help Wen Xiang have more life, haha. β
Wenyi laughed twice mockingly, and then stepped aside. He only knew how to run over the front on the march, and he didn't understand this kind of strategic tactics such as keeping alive, so he didn't come forward to mix. He quietly slipped to the edge of Li Shimin's jade case, grabbed a bunch of chilled grapes, and hid behind a stone pillar to eat.
By the time Li Shimin and the others finished their discussion, it was already sunset. After the generals left, Wenyi told Li Shimin about the banquet. After listening to this, Li Shimin nodded and said: "Okay, I don't have to worry about your affairs, I will soon take the royal conquest, and the affairs of Chang'an will be handed over to you, and Ke'er has already started to print banknotes, so you have to help more." β
Literature and art gladly accepted the order.
The next day, Li Jiancheng came to the court early in a python robe and waited, still standing in the position that originally belonged to the prince, and sighed in his heart, but he didn't expect to go around and return to this old position.
After everyone finished saluting, Li Shimin spoke: "I will drive the imperial expedition tomorrow, and the affairs of the court will be handled by the Yin King from now on, and you must cooperate seriously." β
Wei Zheng and the others no longer objected, and everyone took orders in unison.
.....
Everything was stable in Chang'an, but it was noisy on the Turkic side, with more than 100,000 people gathered around the Jieli tent, and the Turkic warriors gathered in groups with open arms to wipe their beloved sabers, happily discussing how much they could gain from this trip south.
However, the major Turkic patriarchs were not as optimistic as the warriors. Last time, they were beaten too badly by Princess Pingyang, but now there is still a psychological shadow, if it weren't for the fact that Zhao Junshi heard that Datang had just undergone a coup d'Γ©tat and was in a state of political instability, they would definitely not dare to go south again.
Not to mention, this Zhao Junshi is really a capable person, not only can he help them get excellent weapons, but also get a lot of salt. This is a strategic material strictly blocked by Datang! It also taught them how to make aquatic plants more vigorous and how to raise fatter cows and sheep! The current Zhao Junshi has a much higher status than Jieli in the eyes of the Turkic people. One is bent on making their lives better, and the other is bent on how to take away the young people in their family! Now the Turkic people will put incense on Zhao Junshi's immortal tablet every day, and then pick up the little doll with the word "Jieli" written next to it and prick it with a few stitches! He cursed in his mouth...
