Chapter 950: Five Years Have Passed
Breaking free from the shackles of the throne, Li Shimin completely let himself go. In the past, he always said that Li Yuan was not here and not there. But when it came to him, everything was even more excessive than what Li Yuan did.
Li Shimin is not without money, on the contrary, he is richer than Li Chengqian, I don't know how many times. When the emperor has his own small treasury, after Li Chengqian succeeded to the throne, he did not dare to touch his father's small treasury at all, and all of them were transferred to the palace. As the newly appointed emperor, Li Chengqian was a little too serious, and his small treasury has been dried up to this day.
Despite his countless worth, the phrase "credited to the emperor's account" was sprinkled all over Chang'an by Li Shimin. The common merchants were not worried about whether the emperor's credit would be fetched, because they believed in the credibility of the royal family.
In the face of the people who came to collect debts, although Li Chengqian was helpless, he still took all the debts of his father.
Hunting, lounging, fishing, and watching the excitement in the laboratory. This is what Li Shimin has been doing since his abdication.
In the end, the multinational competition was held, and those who were inseparable, whether it was the Great Cannibals, the Turkic Western Regions, the Silla Baekjes, or the Wakoku, all had no choice but to stop the battle. Because, Datang said that those who started the war during the game will personally meet Datang's anger.
Not to mention the current Datang, even if it was the Datang a few years ago, no one dared to provoke it.
As a result, the countries that had ceased war sent envoys to Chang'an to participate in the competition. In this game, countries have won and lost each other. Those who were lucky enough to win Datang were all trembling, but after not receiving the blow, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
As for the quail-like envoys of various countries, whether it is Li Shimin or Li Chengqian, they are very satisfied.
Too much strength will invite disaster, or become confidence.
Five years ago, the world's attack on Tang was a disaster caused by great strength. However, Datang survived and taught the kingdom an unforgettable lesson with his victory.
After the multinational athletic competition, despite Li Chengqian's repeated dissuasion, Li Shimin still took some of his old courtiers who were idle and went out on patrol and went to Shandong to play a round. Although many people want to complain about the almost circular itinerary of the Emperor Taishang, they dare to point it out, but there is no one after all.
is still the same sentence, blaming the incumbent emperor will attract dissatisfaction at most, but blaming the emperor will attract the dissatisfaction of the two emperors, and even the accusations of the people of the world. After all, after the abdication, Li Shimin still has a high prestige among the people. No matter how capricious the move is, no one cares, but feels that it should be.
After abdicating, Li Shimin simply became the darling of the Tang Dynasty.
Leng Feng did not participate in Li Shimin's travel, but followed Tang Jin's army and went to Gaochang to commemorate the Battle of Gaochang.
After the multi-national competition, the flames of war that had been extinguished briefly were rekindled. Silla Baekje and the Wa Kingdom, for a little foothold, are difficult to separate. And the Turkic people of the Western Regions, after getting the equipment eliminated by the Tang Dynasty, were full of motivation to start a war with the Great Cannibal again. The truce in between, more like repression, led to more violent conflicts.
Although the Turks in the Western Regions knew that the Tang Dynasty traded equipment with them and used them as gunmen, they could only accept it helplessly.
As for Tang Jin leading the Dragon Tooth Guard and Zuo Wuwei to the border, one was to inspect the border defense, and the other was to demonstrate.
The Great Cannibal and the Western Regions Turks fought inseparably, and the Great Cannibals plotted to outflank the back of the Turkic Western Regions and lead the war to the borders of the Tang Dynasty.
Li Chengqian's meaning is obvious, that is, to show the strength of Datang. Although I would love to watch you fight, when you fight, you had better stay away from our door, or I will go out and beat you all over.
Arriving in Gaochang, Leng Feng and the others stayed, while Tang Jin led the team to continue advancing. Today, the border of the Tang Dynasty is half of the original Western Regions, and it is no longer the first line of Gaochang Jiayuguan. Although there is no obvious defense as Jiayuguan here, Datang still will not give up this land to others.
The county guard of Gaochang is still the Du family, Du Yang, and now Gaochang is like a fief of the Du family.
led the left-behind general out of the city to greet him, Du Yang was very excited: "Protector of the country, I didn't expect you to come over, I didn't greet you from afar, it's really rude!" ”
The Du family and the Leng family have always been good friends, not to mention that although Leng Feng has retired, his prestige has not weakened in just five years. The battle of Gaochang five years ago is still the talk of the people of Gaochang before and after dinner.
The generals who stayed behind were much more simply, kneeling on one knee and just saying: "Protector of the country!" ”
As a wingman, they are not less taken care of by the cold front. For the border army in the northwest, Leng Feng always inadvertently added a little material to them during his tenure.
"Get up, we're going to sleep in tents outside the city tonight, and we don't need to go into the city."
Looking at the dozens of guards behind Leng Feng, Du Yang said worriedly: "Protector, you might as well go into the city for the night." Not to mention that it was unusually cold outside the city at night, even if you contracted the wind chill outside the city, it was not something that a few people could afford to bear. ”
Looking at the land outside Gaochang City, Leng Feng shook his head: "Just spend the night outside the city, my subordinates rested on this battlefield back then, I want to recall the past." ”
After Du Yang exchanged glances with several left-behind generals, he said stubbornly: "Protector of the country, please forgive the lower official for many troubles, if you spend the night outside this city, please allow the lower official to send troops to escort you, and you have to sleep in the tent prepared by the lower official, otherwise, it will be desperate to offend you, and the lower official will also tie you into the city." ”
Leng Feng was helpless, but he couldn't make Du Yang frightened, so he agreed.
In the evening, in the heavy tent prepared by Du Yang, Leng Feng rarely drank with Li Erniu and others.
The wind was cold outside the tent, just like it was back then.
Ergouzi opened the door curtain, closed it quickly, and muttered: "It's really cold, how did we stay here day and night?" It's still late summer, and it's late winter. ”
Li Erniu laughed: "It was back then, and now it's now." Not to mention, you've been so badly injured, and even though it's been so long, your vitality is still not comparable to before. Get inside, be careful, don't suffer the cold. ”
After drinking a glass of wine, Leng Feng said: "Gentle Township is the most consuming hero, not to mention, you were fighting almost overdrawn your potential before. Monkey, Li Erniu, I'll just say what about the two of you, it's just that the cubs of the martial arts academy are practicing bare-chested, and you two won't take the lead in fooling around in the future. ”
Li Erniu and the monkey smiled bitterly, but still nodded.
Listening to the sound of the wind outside the tent and the impact of the guard's armor leaves, Leng Feng couldn't help but be distracted.
The First World War still feels like it happened not so long ago.
The old thing is in front of me, but five years have passed in a flash.
