Wang Ke's self-imposed punishment spread throughout all the ministries and departments of the entire Tang Dynasty within one day, and it was a stir for a while, and the first sentence of all officials was to mention Wang Ke's name and say everything, but because the atmosphere of the entire court is still 'very' upright, most people still have an appreciative attitude towards Wang Ke's behavior. Of course, Wang Ke's behavior also made some changes in some people's hearts, after all, Wang Ke did this, letting them know that if they want to 'mix', they must also have a 'mix' appearance, and they are afraid that it will not work as before.

Wang Ke looked very calm, going in and out of various ministries and departments every day, and he had to step forward to 'insert' a kick when he encountered anything, and everyone was hindered by his energy in front of Comrade Li Er, and they also felt that what he said made a little bit of sense, and sometimes they listened to it.

On this day, Wang Ke hadn't gotten up yet, he heard the sound of his own stairs, knew that someone was coming up, and he was still 'very' anxious to hear the footsteps, Wang Ke pushed the winter moon beside him, and asked her to go out of the 'door' to see, and he looked up at the window, but found that the sky was not yet bright.

Wang Ke frowned, he didn't know what was going on, it was worth coming to himself so early, although after the last time he received his own punishment, Comrade Li Er trusted himself even more, and he would call himself for anything, but he didn't call himself before dawn like today, he called people after dawn to talk about himself, it seems that something big must happen today!

Thinking of this, Wang Ke couldn't sleep a little, turned over, and was picking up his clothes to wear, when he saw Wang Si break in regardless of politeness, and said to Wang Ke with a solemn expression: "Ke'er, the emperor called you to enter the palace immediately, it seems that something big has happened!" ”

While getting dressed, Wang Ke asked, "Dad, what about you, are you going too?" ”

Wang Si urged: "Go too." Hurry up, Daddy is waiting for you downstairs! Then he turned and went downstairs.

After all, Wang Si knew that it was not appropriate for him to stand here waiting for Wang Ke at this time, his son's concubine was still standing behind him in a pajamas, just now because he was in a hurry, he rushed in without thinking about it, fortunately Wang Ke asked Dongyue to get up and take a look, otherwise it would be a little unpleasant to say. Now that I've said that, I have to avoid it quickly, so as not to make everyone look very embarrassed.

Wang Ke was dressed, and he didn't have time to say a word to Dongyue, so he hurriedly went downstairs and went to the palace with Wang Si and the others.

When he came to Comrade Li Er's imperial study, as soon as he entered the 'door', he saw that all the old killers were already here, Wang Ke immediately understood that this was a military action, and hurriedly saluted Comrade Li Er and sat down.

Seeing that the people were almost there, Comrade Li Er beckoned people to carry a sand table up, stepped down from the throne and came to the sand table and said, "Don't sit still, come and watch and talk." ”

As soon as the old killer and Wang Ke all came around, only Wang Si was left sitting behind the small table, ready to record what Comrade Li Er and these people said at any time.

Comrade Li Er pointed at Li Jing and said, "Let's talk about the current situation. ”

Li Jing hugged his fist at Comrade Li Er's chest, saluted, and pointed at Tuyuhun and said: "Our army spies have sent back news that the troops in Tuyuhun have suddenly moved frequently in recent days, and the number of troops on the border with our DPRK has more than doubled. But what made matters worse was that the whereabouts of the rest of the army were unknown. Since my spies could not penetrate deep into the territory and did not know much about what was happening in their territory, I somehow made this move, so I reported it to the court and asked for a holy judgment. ”

Wang Ke stood behind, silently listening to Li Jing's introduction, constantly recalling the historical knowledge he knew, but let him go through all the memories in his mind, and he didn't remember what happened to Tuyuhun at this time.

After Li Jing finished speaking, Comrade Li Er looked around and said: "That's all I know now, I don't know what your opinions are, but it doesn't hurt to say it." so that the imperial court can make a decision that is in line with it. ”

To tell the truth, in terms of what Li Jing just said, to say how to deal with it really made everyone present a little embarrassed, and the art of war is cloudy: know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles. Now that the situation is unclear, to make a decision, it is really difficult for some clever 'women' to cook without rice.

Seeing that everyone didn't speak for a long time, Comrade Li Er was also a little anxious, and urged: "What, can't you Aiqing have any choice?" ”

Seeing that Comrade Li Er was a little anxious, Li Jingcai said: "Your Majesty, it's not that the ministers don't want to say it, it's just that the situation is unclear now, and there is really no way to start." If you want to say that what you can do now is to send another group of men and horses to the border between our dynasty and Tuyuhun, and once Tuyuhun and our dynasty are unfavorable, we will strike first and destroy this army. ”

Li Jing said that when the situation is unclear, it is also a safe way, but now this strategy is no longer able to **** Comrade Li Er's appetite. Now in order to expand his territory, he is thinking about who to beat up every day, which makes him only defend, and he is really reluctant to do so.

Wang Ke saw that Comrade Li Er's mind was not just about defending, but wanting to take advantage of this opportunity to get a little benefit, so he hurriedly squeezed inside and said, "What Uncle Li said is very true. However, the little nephew has an idea, and he also asks the emperor and uncles to correct him. ”

As soon as I saw this kid coming, Comrade Li Er and the old killer knew that there must be a good show. They know Wang Ke too well, this kid is not willing to suffer a loss, as long as he wants to speak, he must be able to get a little benefit in this matter, otherwise this kid will not open his mouth if he is killed.

Comrade Li Er hurriedly said: "Boy, let's talk about it, as long as it's beneficial to my Datang, you can do whatever you want." ”

As soon as Comrade Li Er's words came out, all the old killers rolled their eyes and said in their hearts: "That is, as long as you can let Datang expand its territory, you can give up anything." ”

Wang Ke pointed to the sand table and said: "The emperor and uncles, please see, Tuyuhun's position is very important to my Tang Dynasty, and if I get here, I will have a very wide buffer between Chang'an and Tubo." Now, because our dynasty cannot enter and exit Tuyuhun at will, it will take a long time for our dynasty to know what happens, and once Tubo uses troops against our dynasty, as long as it breaks through Tuyuhun, it can directly threaten our Chang'an, and at that time, it will be much more difficult for our dynasty to defend. ”

As soon as Wang Ke said this, Li Jing interrupted: "Now Tubo should not have the ability to use troops against Tuyuhun, now Tubo is still a mess of scattered sand, fighting with each other non-stop, where is there time to fight against Tuyuhun!" ”

What Li Jing said was indeed the truth, at this time, Tubo was still divided by several large serf owners, and the struggle between them has not stopped. However, Wang Ke's historical knowledge told him that now, in the land of Tibet, the Songtsen Gampo recorded in the history textbook has appeared, and it will not be long before Tubo will be unified in his hands.

But because of his arrival, Wang Ke didn't want to use such a method in exchange for peace, he knew very well that the peace exchanged for a 'woman' could not last for a long time, and the final solution was to solve it by force. As long as there is a strong military threat, this world is up to you, and you can have a greater right to speak!

Wang Ke smiled and said, "Uncle is right. But just because he doesn't have it now doesn't mean he won't have it in the future. For my Datang, it is just right that he does not have this ability now, we have this ability, why can't we use this ability to control this land of great significance to my Datang in our hands? ”

In this place, Wang Ke did not say that he wanted to occupy this land, nor did he want to destroy Tuyuhun, but used the word control, which made Comrade Li Er and a cadre of old killers a little surprised, in their minds, there are only two concepts of being destroyed and immortal, but this control has not been thought about at all. Now that Wang Ke said this, they all didn't understand, and all their eyes looked at Wang Ke, and there was a trace of incomprehension in their eyes.

Wang Ke knew that they didn't quite understand, and explained: "That's the case, if our dynasty destroys Tuyuhun now, then everything will be transferred to our dynasty, and there is no trace of advantage here except for military significance, which can only increase the burden of our dynasty." Then there is no need for us to completely occupy it, as long as we can control it, we can let the DPRK garrison troops in its territory, in case the Tubo peeps on my Tang Dynasty, and we don't need to bear the burden of other burdens in the territory of Tuyuhun, why not! ”

What Wang Ke said was actually what a certain big country did in later generations, without increasing its own burden, in the name of defending the security of other countries, in order to station troops on the territory of other countries in order to protect its own interests, Wang Ke just copied it.

Wang Ke's words deeply shocked Comrade Li Er and the old man, I didn't expect this kid to have such a vicious plan, but speaking of which, it is a hundred miles away from Datang.

Comrade Li Er now agrees with what Wang Ke said, and asked: "Then how should I start now?" ”

Comrade Li Er undoubtedly agreed with Wang Ke's opinion, and now what he wants to know is what Datang should do according to the current situation, and hopes that Wang Ke can come up with a feasible plan.

Wang Ke had already thought of the answer before he spoke, and now as soon as Comrade Li Er asked, he immediately replied: "Now our dynasty should be like this: First, according to what Uncle Li just said, on the basis of the existing military strength on the border, one or two more teams will be sent to ensure the safety of our Datang border; Second, it is necessary to send a special reconnaissance team from our DPRK into the territory of Tuyuhun to conduct a thorough reconnaissance and find out how many troops Tuyuhun has increased on the border with our DPRK and what kind of equipment it has. Where and how many troops the rest of the army is being sent now. What is the cause of the sudden appearance of this incident in Tuyuhun this time, and what is the reason, these things need to be investigated in advance. As long as these things are understood, the DPRK will be able to formulate perfect countermeasures based on these and achieve the goals set by the DPRK more easily. ”

After Wang Ke finished speaking, he clasped his fists at Comrade Li Er and the old killer and said: "That's all the minister has to say, and I ask the emperor and your uncles to weigh it." ”

Wang Ke's words made Comrade Li Er and a cadre of old killers ponder, to be honest, this is the best way so far, the special investigation team has been trained, and it has not really been used, this time it can also be regarded as a real investigation of them; It is impossible to know the extent to which the current situation in Tuyuhun has developed without going deeper, especially the movement of the army, as long as we know the final destination, we can deduce the purpose of doing so.

Li Jing and Li Tao discussed in a low voice and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the proposal of Wang Jiaxian's nephew is feasible, but now for our army, we know too little about the situation, which is not conducive to the deployment of our army. Please also ask the emperor to decide! ”

Comrade Li Er did not hesitate, and immediately nodded and agreed to Li Jing's proposal, but demanded that this matter could only be carried out in secret now, and there was no need to 'get' it to the world.

Li Jing nodded, and immediately asked Li Tao to go down to arrange it, and then discussed the matter of grain, grass and equipment with Wei Chi Jingde and Chai Shao, and handed it over to Qin Shubao and Cheng Zhijie to implement.
