Chapter 846 Li Chengqian commanded the army
Chapter 846
Qin Huaidao was on duty in Chengtian Palace, and suggested that the eldest sons of those princes who were willing to go to the front line could also go, of course Li Shimin agreed, now in the court, there are not a few generals of the younger generation, so it is necessary to train enough generals for the future, and the military academy is also training generals now, but whether it can be cultivated and how much it can be cultivated, I don't know yet, but it is definitely much stronger than there was no military school before.
The next morning, after Qin Huaidao got up, he began to arrange Li Shimin's washing, those palace maids and eunuchs were waiting there, and the sun slowly rose.
"Well, comfortable!" Li Shimin sat up from the soft collapse and stretched out his waist, Wang En took the palace maids and eunuchs over, Qin Huaidao was standing beside Li Shimin, staring at those palace maids and eunuchs, afraid that there would be another assassination.
After washing up, Li Shimin asked Qin Huaidao to have breakfast together, and specially prepared a lot of food for Qin Huaidao, he knew that Qin Huaidao could eat, and those who practiced martial arts could eat it.
"In the morning, you go back to rest, if there is government affairs, you can deal with it, if there is no government affairs, just sleep, don't care about those officials, they don't dare to do anything now, they must be waiting for their father's opinion on the handling of the head of the family." Li Shimin sat there and said to Qin Huaidao.
"Well, now they don't dare to move, but the father still has to be careful, after all, the hidden power of their family is still very large, and we don't know." Qin Huaidao nodded and continued to eat his own things.
"What are you afraid of, you can still mess up, the people of the world are determined, the chaos can't get up, Datang has developed very well in recent years, and the people know that good days are coming, the straight road has been repaired, and the reservoir has been repaired so much, and the next thing is to develop well,
In the past two years, the development has not been slow, and the living conditions of the people near the capital are not bad, but, according to what you said, there are now some workshops that have been signed in the surrounding cities, and Luoyang may have to move some of them to the past. The palace in Luoyang is almost repaired now, and my father can go there to sit if he is fine! Li Shimin said indifferently, for the current situation, he knows very well that the people will definitely not follow the family to rebel, there is no such foundation.
"Well, in the future, we still need to strengthen the development of those industries, which can bring us a steady stream of benefits to Datang." Qin Huaidao nodded and said to Li Shimin.
"Well, this still depends on you, their civil officials don't understand this, they know what businessmen can't have too high positions, the father didn't give them a high position, just give them fairness, so that their children can also participate in the imperial examination, this is a lot of discussions, feelings According to the views of those scholars, the people of the world, as long as their scholars can study, no one can study, they can't be officials, that's not possible." Li Shimin nodded at Qin Huaidao and said, he agreed with Qin Huaidao's thoughts.
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asks to see you!" At this moment, Wang En came over and said to Li Shimin.
"Well, let him in and ask him if he's had breakfast, and if not, eat it here!" Li Shimin said to Wang En.
"Yes!" Soon, Wang En went out,
After a while, Li Chengqian came over, followed by a few eunuchs, all of whom came with food.
"What's the matter, come early in the morning?" Li Shimin asked Li Chengqian with a smile.
"Goryeo has sent an envoy over, hoping to make peace with us! I've been here for a while, and the Honglu Temple has not been able to make a decision, no, the people of the Honglu Temple found the son last night and asked the son to take the idea, the son thought that the father and the emperor were going to fight Goryeo, and this future peace talks may not be appropriate, but if they are not given a chance, it is not appropriate, after all, we are their suzerain. Li Chengqian came over and stood there and said to Li Shimin.
"Sit down and say, according to what you mean, is it a fight or a talk?" Li Shimin asked Li Chengqian to sit down, and then asked.
"Erchen's intention to fight, Pepyong said, not only Goryeo has to fight, that is, Silla, Baekje can be defeated, the land here is fertile, however, Baekje and Silla can't fight, they haven't made any mistakes yet, but Goryeo must be defeated, and it can also deter these two countries and make them stop,
In addition, when we are in the past, we can also use other methods to control the land in these two places, and our dynasty will definitely need to garrison troops in Goryeo, and there is still a chance. Li Chengqian sat there and said his opinion.
Li Shimin heard it, nodded with satisfaction, and then said to Li Chengqian: "Do what you want, by the way, you also have to prepare, before my father said that I want to drive the expedition in person, but my father thought about it, considering that you have not been on the battlefield yet, so, this time my father is ready to let you take command and personally conquer Goryeo, but what do you think?" ”
"No, no, my father and sons actually wanted to ask my father and the emperor to let my sons go!" When Li Chengqian heard this, he said to Li Shimin very happily.
"Well, this world, after all, it will still be given to you, so, many things, you need to go through, the government affairs part, you handled it very well, the father has nothing to say, but the military part still needs you to exercise, so, this time you go, in the future, when you cultivate the prince, you also need to give them such an opportunity,
Of course, it is also necessary to consider comprehensively, and it is necessary to be fully sure, of course, Emperor Yang of Sui personally conquered Goryeo, and he has not been defeated several times, and now our Tang Dynasty is going to conquer them, and the outcome is unpredictable, but, compared with Emperor Yang of Sui back then, my father believes that the army of the Tang Dynasty is still somewhat certain, and my father will let Su Dingfang and Li Ji assist you in commanding, and Peping will be the vanguard! Li Shimin said to Li Chengqian.
"Yes, however, Pepin is the pioneer, and the sons do not agree, and the father is not appropriate in this matter!" When Li Chengqian heard this, he immediately arched his hand to Li Shimin and said.
"What he has to do himself, he also persuaded his father, and his son thought about letting Peping be the vanguard, let him know what is going on the front line, and in the future, he will not go to war, and in the future, if there is a change in the court, Peping will also be able to stabilize, so, let him go, your consideration, the father has also considered it, but the father still thinks that Peping is right!" Li Shimin explained to Li Chengqian.
"Your Highness, no problem, you can rest assured!" Qin Huaidao also smiled and said to Li Chengqian.
Li Chengqian nodded, looked at Li Shimin and said, "Father, Peping is too important to our dynasty, and there can be no mistakes." ”
"Well, he leads the troops of the third division, and at the same time, as the vanguard force, my father will mobilize another division of troops for him to lead." Li Shimin nodded, Qin Huaidao's safety was also very important.
"Okay, since both Father and Pepin are so insistent, and I understand why Pepin wants to be a pioneer, then so be it!" Li Chengqian nodded and said.
"Well, did you go to meet the heads of the family?" Li Shimin then asked.
"Not yet, yesterday, Erchen obtained those investigation materials from Gonggong Hong, and I watched them for a night last night, and I was going to go over to see them later, and ask them if they have anything to say, but, father, Erchen still has something unclear now, I just don't know, how to deal with them then?" Li Chengqian looked at Li Chengqian as he said and asked, this matter is very important, even if it was really done by them, how should this matter be handled?
"What do you say?" Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian and asked.
"Erchen is a little afraid to think about it, it stands to reason that it is okay to kill and punish the nine clans, but the impact is too great, Erchen is worried that killing will make the officials of those families talk a lot, and it may also cause instability in the court." Li Chengqian said in a solemn tone.
"Don't be afraid, my father is not dead yet, they can't mess up, they should be killed, they will be killed, and they will assassinate their father and the crown prince, hmph, if you want nothing at all, is it possible? If you don't make an example of a hundred, who will put the imperial power in your eyes, and kill if you should kill it! Li Shimin snorted coldly and said to Li Chengqian, Li Shimin arrested them and originally planned to send them to the vegetable market.
"Yes, if you want to kill, you can do it, you still need to prepare in advance, what Erchen is worried about is that when the time comes, we will go on an expedition to Goryeo, and the family has seen that so many troops have been mobilized to go out, and it will be troublesome to make trouble at this time." Li Chengqian continued to say worriedly.
"So this time you go to fight in the Shuai Army, and your father is in Chang'an, and your father wants to see who can make trouble!" Li Shimin said to Li Chengqian.
"Yes, that's where the ministers will interrogate them!" Li Chengqian nodded and said.
"Good!" Li Shimin nodded, and soon, Qin Huaidao and Li Chengqian finished eating, and the two of them went downstairs together.
"It's actually inappropriate for you to be a pioneer, there are so many soldiers in Datang, you don't need to go at all, your ability is so great, why do you need to go to such a dangerous situation?" After going downstairs, Li Chengqian said anxiously to Qin Huaidao.
"Your Highness, please rest assured, the minister understands, there will be no problem, the minister has also learned so many art of war with Wei Guogong, and I also want to know how much difference it is from the art of war if this really fights, I don't want to be a person who talks about war on paper." Qin Huaidao said to Li Chengqian with a smile.
"Huh!" After Li Chengqian heard it, he sighed, and then Qin Huaidao took out a book of music from his arms and handed it to Li Chengqian: "I originally wanted to give it to my father yesterday, but I still can't bear to give it, you can take a look, how to deal with your ideas, whether to file it directly, or say that you want to show it to your father." ”
Li Chengqian heard it, took it suspiciously, looked at it carefully, and after reading it, his face was full of incomprehension: "Why did he do this?" Crazy? ”
