On the Jinluan Palace, Li Shimin stood with a sword in golden armor, and said to the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces: "The Tang Dynasty should be a piece of fine iron, forged from the beacon furnace at the end of the Sui Dynasty, and can it become a paralyzed cartilage rot because of more than ten years of peace?" ”

"No jokes! - I gave an edict to Qin Mubai in front of you, if he can't fight Tubo, I will go into battle in person! ”

"Raise the army of the country and compete with it!"

"I don't talk about revenge, blood and hatred for a tooth. What I am fighting for is not the gains and losses of the First World War, not thousands of miles of territory, and not the face of the king and the praise and depreciation of future generations! ”

The court was in town, standing still, listening attentively.

"My Tang Dynasty, how can it be bullied, humiliated, and enemyed! Huaxia, how can you be indulged in pleasure and not want to forge ahead! Born in sorrow, died in peace! ——What I want is to awaken the blood of the Chinese nation! The soul of the world! ”

"The Qin family's father and son are martyred, and countless soldiers who are shrouded in horse leather, their heroism is also the meaning!"

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!!" Full of worship clothes, the mountains roar and the tsunami.

Li Shimin, who has always been good at accepting advice, made an arbitrary decision this time and did not allow anyone to make a statement, and the holy decree was immediately issued.

Chu Suiliang was ordered to issue a war document drawn up by the emperor and ordered the world to officially declare a full-scale war on Tibet. The three "no" words in the text shake the mountains and rivers - no compromise, no peace talks, no stop fighting, unless one of the two countries falls!

Li Shimin personally took command of the expedition and ordered Situ Changsun Wuji and Zhongshu Ling Ma Zhou to jointly assist Li Zhi, the king of Jin, to stay in Chang'an; Ordered the veteran Li Jing to be the marching Sima, Fang Xuanling to be the long history, Chu Suiliang to join the army, Zhang Liang, Li Daliang, Li Junxian, Zhifu Sili and many other famous generals before driving, and ordered more than 600 generals, and ordered the deputy envoy Qin Tong to lead 800 cavalry as the front guard, leading 300,000 soldiers and horses, and driving in person!

The original standing government soldiers of the Tang Dynasty totaled about 600,000, half of which were concentrated in Guanzhong, and the other half were stationed in the frontiers or scattered in the military governments of various states and counties across the country. Before the beginning of the war in Lanzhou, Guanzhong allocated more than 100,000 soldiers and horses to participate in the war, so the troops were already lacking. Li Shimin wanted to lead an army of 300,000 to march in person, but at present, there were less than 200,000 soldiers and horses guarding the Beijing Division.

At this time, Li Shimin issued an order - issued a conscription order to recruit elite young people in Guanzhong! The imperial court opened the treasury of Taicang to disperse the national reserves, and it was necessary to organize an army of 300,000 within ten days, and after the original elite soldiers and horses in Guanzhong were guarded, half of them were selected to accompany the royal car to go on the expedition, and the other half stayed in Chang'an Town to guard Guanzhong.

The Tang Dynasty implemented the government military system, except for a small number of imperial forest troops in the imperial city, which were recruited at the expense of the imperial court, and there was no large-scale requisition and recruitment. ~ Li Shimin's move has to be reminiscent of Yang Guang, the last emperor of the former Sui Dynasty, who conscripted troops to conquer Goryeo.

But Li Shimin didn't care anymore.

"Raise the soldiers of the country", "fight the male and female" - you have no jokes!

Li Shimin's domineering and resolute courage once again shocked Chang'an and subdued the world. This paper holy decree has been issued, just like a powerful stimulant, so that the world of Kyushu is a long-standing and faintly lurking national blood, and the martial and strong spirit inherited by the Tang Dynasty has been awakened!

People seem to have returned to the period of the late Sui Dynasty and the period of the war in the south and the north of the country.

A moment ago, singing and dancing were leveled, and the paper was drunk with gold; The next moment, the hot-blooded jī is majestic!

Guanzhong and Beijing, whether it is the prince or the children of commoners, those who sign up to join the army are like carp crossing the river; In Kyushu, in the past, the literati and writers who had nothing to do with state affairs only praised the wind and the moon, and their poems and writings were like arrows all over the world.

In an instant, the whole people of the Tang Dynasty invited the people to fight, and the three armies of the people were excited!

Datang, on top of this epic picture scroll that has written more than ten years of prosperity and peace, there is a sudden increase in thick ink and color, and a dazzling stroke!

All this is only because of Lanzhou, only because of the death of the father and son surnamed Qin!

……

Imperial City, Harem, Protector Tennoji Temple.

Bai Shengxue's Yin Defei burned incense and sat on the face of the Buddha, although she was plain and shallow, she still had a unique and noble appearance, and she was shocked.

Sitting beside her is the abbot of the Tennoji Temple, Master Qingshan.

"Master, you once said that he became a demon with one thought and became a Buddha with one thought; Now, will he go to hell, or to Western Bliss? Concubine Yin De closed her eyes and said shallowly.

"If the mother thinks he has gone to hell, he is in hell; Niangniang thought that he had gone to the West, so he was in the Pure Land of Bliss. Master Qingshan replied.

Concubine Yin De's eyebrows sank slightly, and a bitter smile appeared, "I just want him to be still in the world." It doesn't matter if you become a Buddha or a demon, it's all good, but you're still alive. ”

"The sea of bitterness is boundless, what is the joy of life?"

"It's quiet that he's dead, but how many people will be truly miserable from now on?"

"Is Niang Niang worried about Her Royal Highness the Princess?"

"And the unborn child in her womb!" Concubine Yin De suddenly moved, and her voice trembled, "I learned from Ling'er's letter that not long before he set out on the expedition, Ling'er was pregnant with Liujia!" …… From now on, orphans and widows, how can they be embarrassed! ”

Master Qingshan didn't say anything, and was quiet for a long time. ~

"Master, am I wrong?" Concubine Yin De asked.

"It's not right or wrong. Life and death, right and wrong, movement and stillness, are only a line between life. Enlightened, that's it. Master Qingshan said, "Niangniang, the wind blows the candle flame, the wind does not move, the candle does not move; It's just the heart that moves. ”

"Heart, heartbeat?" Concubine Yin De was stunned.

"Your heart has never been still." Master Qingshan smiled slightly and said.

"Nonsense!!"

Concubine Yin De stood up suddenly, with a rare face in her life, and for the first time, she shouted to the Qingshan Master who had always been respected-"Master, you are disrespectful!" ”

"Mother forgiveness." Qingshan was not surprised, put his hands together and sang a Buddha salute, and said, "Why should Niangniang be angry? Yes or no, true and false, false and good, there is only a thin line. Everything starts from the heart, even the Buddha has demons, let alone mortals? 500 times of looking back in the past life, in exchange for the passing of this life; Niangniang does not need to introspect or entangle, the fate is like this, and it conforms to the destiny of heaven. ”

Concubine Yin De stood stunned. The waist-length snow-white long spread out, outlining her back into a sad way.

A voice, roaring in her head—

"I ...... Tempted? …… Ridiculous! It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous! ”

……

At night, Situ Changsun Wuji's house, in the study.

The eldest grandson Wuji was in full anger, his face was like iron and his whole body trembled, his fists clenched and the green tendons burst out, glaring at the eldest grandson who was kneeling in front of him!

"Rebel! Evil animals! How dare you be a deserter! ”

"Daddy! Take care of your anger...... A thousand mistakes, the child is irrefutable! Now go back to Lanzhou immediately and take the guilt! The eldest grandson cried and begged.

"It's too late!" The eldest grandson Wuji shouted angrily, "If you die on the battlefield and die for the country, you can still leave a little clear name!" Now, Your Majesty has ordered the whole country to fight, you, you...... As the son of my eldest grandson Wuji, you are actually a deserter! Not only will you ruin your own life, but you will also ruin my eldest grandson's lineage! Even your aunt (Empress Eldest Sun) under the Nine Springs is ashamed of you! - Shaft! You still have the face to come back to see the old man! I'm going to kill you instantly! ”

roared, the eldest grandson Wuji kicked down, and the eldest grandson was in the heart!

The eldest grandson didn't dare to call, and he was kicked to the sky and fell over, and immediately got up again, begging with a white and cold sweat on his face: "Father is angry!" Don't be angry! The child should be damned, and he will never dare to affect his family! ”

"Dead? A dead word, easy to say! The eldest grandson Wuji was still furious, and roared, "The emperor is personally conscripted, and all the people who should be sent have been dispatched, but I am left in Chang'an to assist the waste prison country!" - This move is clearly alienating and snubbing me! It's been more than 20 years, but if there is any big xiao, how can he do this to me? - And now, you, the son of a deserter, are still popping up! Hún account stuff! You...... The angry old man is also! ”

"Woo-" Eldest Sun Jian finally cried, "Who knew that he Qin Mubai was so unbearable, he was actually poisoned by the Tubo people!" The Guanxi army collapsed for thousands of miles, and the Tubo army pressed the border, and the child was thinking at the time, since Qin Mubai was dead, then our previous premeditated plan was all a lie, so it was better to get out as soon as possible and find stability. And the child doesn't leave, and most of them are the souls of Hou Junji's knives at this moment! That communiqué sī revenge sent a sea fishing document to arrest me! …… If the child falls into his hands, it will be a dead end! ”

"If you are killed by him, it is better than fleeing back to Chang'an!" The eldest grandson Wuji gritted his teeth and said, "For this occasion, you can only be taken for the sake of your father's righteousness, and Jiao will be handled by the military criminal law!" ”

"Huh?!" The eldest grandson's eyes suddenly straightened, and he muttered, "Daddy, daddy! …… Tiger poison doesn't eat children! ”

"What are you yelling about!" The eldest grandson Wuji scolded, "It has to be like this, you still have a glimmer of life, and the eldest grandson's family can still be saved!" - Moreover, you can't be given to His Majesty the Emperor, you must be dealt with by the Lanzhou military! Since Qin Mubai is dead, the person in charge of Lanzhou must be Li Daozong. Hou Junji wants to announce his revenge, so I can only give you to Li Daozong. Although Li Daozong and I are not all the way, he doesn't dare to take your life! Moreover, the emperor is about to lead a large army to Lanzhou, and Li Daozong will not dare to make a mistake at this time, but will protect you and leave you to His Majesty the Emperor to deal with! Moreover, at that time, Hou Junji will not only have no chance to kill you, but will also lose all his military power - after all, he is just a degraded official appointed by Qin Mubai, and his name is not right. The emperor, how could he use him again in his own hands? - Do you understand? ”

"It seems to be、Approximately...... Got a little bit. "The eldest grandson is a little scared.

"Shaft! Dull! The eldest grandson Wuji shouted angrily, "In short, I will immediately send a few henchmen to tie you up, and put you in the hands of Li Daozong before His Majesty the Emperor's army arrives in Lanzhou!" ”

"......" The eldest grandson came to his senses a little now, and muttered in despair and grief, "Dad, you are so ruthless!" You're afraid I'll pull you into the water...... You would gamble the life and death of a child in exchange for the emperor's forgiveness and trust! ”

"If you want to say that, you can't help it as a father." The eldest grandson Wuji's face was tense, he turned around ruthlessly, and said coldly, "You took the initiative to ask Ying to go to Lanzhou, and you became a deserter yourself, which is obviously self-inflicted!" Right now you only have three paths to take; Either you are court-martialed; Either our whole family will be finished with you; Again...... You are lucky not to die, and the eldest grandson's family will not be implicated, at most I will lose some face and be scolded! - Only if I kill your relatives and take you to Lanzhou, the third result can be lived! - You say, "Which one do you choose?" ”

"Child...... Do you have a choice? Just do as your father commands! The eldest grandson was already gray-eyed, and he hummed to himself, "If you die at the hands of someone like Hou Junji, the child can have something to say." If he dies at the hands of his father...... Child, I don't want to be a human in the next life! ”

The eldest grandson Wuji, who had his back to him, trembled all over his body, gritted his teeth, and replied: "The reversal of the situation is beyond human expectations. Even if that Qin Mubai is dead, he still harms a lot! - When you were still a hundred horses, you shouldn't have provoked him! Everything starts with you! ”

"Dad, are you actually scared and admit defeat?" Changsun Chuan suddenly laughed strangely, "You're actually afraid of a rǔ stinky xiaozi?" Actually lost to a dead rǔ stinky xiaoko? ”

"You presumptuous!!" The eldest grandson Wuji was furious, and turned around suddenly, his eyes were bloodshot and red with anger.

"You're going to eat the tiger poison, I tell the truth once in a while, why not? But this kind of truth, no one dares to tell you, and you don't dare to admit it. The eldest grandson was uncharacteristically unmoved, and smiled coldly, "If you want to beat or scold, hurry up!" Maybe if I say goodbye, I won't be able to come back; In the next life, I will definitely not be your son! ”

"Iniquity!" The eldest grandson Wuji closed his eyes tightly and looked up to the sky and sighed, and a word popped out from between his teeth, "Demon star, what a demon star!" The damn demon star of my eldest grandson Wuji!! ”
