Chapter 42: Colliers Asks for Help

Pei Min has been agonizing about a problem lately, the atmosphere in the court and China is not very hostile to Tibet, but sees it as an object of trade. In their eyes, although the www.biquge.info two countries were mortal enemies before, they had fought many times. But now they are allies, and they have long since turned hostilities into friendships. Ten years ago, after the invasion of Tubo Zampu and the defeat of the governor Chen Daci, there has been no confrontation between the two sides. The Tang Tu border has been peaceful for ten years.

Especially four years ago, Princess Jincheng entered Tibet, and the Tang Dynasty and Tubo became in-laws, and the relationship improved greatly, and even started trade. Just like Princess Wencheng entered Tibet in the past, the relationship between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo has a great feeling of blending under the construction of the two countries.

It was also because of this that Pei Min found that the vast majority of the civil and military generals in the court had no defenses against Tibet, including Li Longji. The Tang Dynasty's military strength is now weak, and the political idea of wanting to form a strong army has not yet been implemented, and Li Longji and the Chinese generals of the DPRK are unwilling to start military affairs, increasing the burden on the people of the country. The purpose is to hope that the two countries can live in peace, and it is not too late to wait until the military strength of the Tang Dynasty has improved.

Li Longji and the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military ideas are correct, if Pei Min does not know the historical process, maybe he will have the same opinion, and he does not want to use troops at this time.

It turns out that all this is delusional, and the war between the two countries is not something that you don't want to fight each other and don't fight, on the contrary, the more you don't want to fight, your enemy will send troops at this time.

This is the real way of using troops, and Tubo is prosperous today, how can we not know this basic truth.

The Tang Dynasty was chaotic before, and the surrounding people were naturally happy to watch from the wall, self-development, and sit and watch the Tang Dynasty fight, so they could sit and reap the benefits of the fishermen. Now that the Tang Dynasty has been put in order by Li Longji and is moving towards stability, how can the Tibetans and Turks sit back and watch the comfortable development of the Tang Dynasty?

For some reason, Pei Min planned to use this incident to break Li Longji's delusion of peace with most of the civil and military forces in the DPRK and China, and let them realize that although it was not the right time, they could not avoid fighting.

Back at Yushitai, Pei Min directly found Wang Xiaobai.

Wang Xiaobai is a real person, even if he is promoted to the middle of the imperial history, Pei Min still asks him to follow him and only obey his own orders. The official position is still patrolling, but the status is very different.

"Zhongcheng!" Wang Xiaobai has Pei Min's weight, the wind and water are rising, not to mention the improvement of his status, and the neighbors of his childhood sweethearts have also agreed to the marriage, which can be described as a double harvest in the love field. He is honest, he doesn't have many fancy intestines, and he doesn't know how to repay his kindness, but he shows his actions and works very hard.

Pei Min nodded at him, his eyes fell on his plate, and asked, "Xiaobai!" You've learned some martial arts, right? I can see that your legs and feet are very strong! ”

Wang Xiaobai nodded embarrassedly and said: "It's not a serious martial art, my great-grandfather was a strange soldier captain under Li Weigong, and then the family was defeated, and the ancestors only left the training method passed down orally." I followed the practice when I was a child, and I didn't have any real skills, but I practiced my legs and feet. I ran very fast, and few people caught up with me. Originally, I was just a small fangding, but because I ran fast and could catch thieves, I was promoted to patrol press. ”

Pei Min had heard Xue Ne talk about the strange soldiers, and remembered that when Xue Ne gave him a lesson on marching formation, he once said: "I have many famous generals in the Tang Dynasty, but when it comes to the method of marching and arranging formations, no one is around Li Weigong." As Han Xin, the Marquis of Huaiyin, said in the past, 'the more soldiers, the better'. The more soldiers, the more the commander's ability to deploy troops will be tested. The only one who can really do as much as the Marquis of Huaiyin is Li Weigong. Li Weigong is bold in his strategy and meticulous in his use of troops. Up to 100,000 soldiers, more than 100 soldiers can be subdivided. Whenever he goes into battle, he must be divided into crossbowmen, archers, horse soldiers, jumpers, strange soldiers, warriors, etc., every soldier, every type of troops, he is just right, in the battle of battle, give full play to their greatest advantages, there will be no mistakes. ”

Pei Min listened to it at that time, and his heart was full of worship for Li Jing, the god of the Tang Dynasty, if it wasn't for the commander's strength, how could he give full play to the characteristics of each branch of the army in the ever-changing battle situation? Thinking that one day he would be able to be like Li Jing, command thousands of armies, and go into battle to kill the enemy, how good it would be. Thinking of the imminent arrival of the Tubo War in the Tang Dynasty, Pei Min couldn't help but have a small expectation in his heart. Although he served in the Imperial Tower, his heart was not here.

Odd soldiers are indispensable winners and losers in Li Jing's army, and Li Weigong's military law of the Tang Dynasty is cloudy: among the ten points of the big rate, three are divided into odd soldiers. The requirement of this three-point surprise soldier is to trek through mountains and rivers as if they were walking on the ground, and to be able to cut into the weak points of the enemy formation at any time and at the fastest speed, and the battle is decided.

Wang Xiaobai practiced according to the method of the strange soldier, and it is natural that he has a strong foot kung fu.

"I'll give you a task, you go to Chongrenfang to find the mansion of the great general Yang Ju, and according to the contact information I gave you, quietly contact a man named Sun Zhou. You find a place to stay nearby, and remember that as soon as he contacted you, he reported back to me. Whenever it happens, send me the news. ”

Wang Xiaobai patted his chest resolutely and took the order.

Seeing Wang Xiaobai leave, Pei Min also found that there were not many good hands around him that could be used, and there seemed to be no reliable and capable assistant in his hands at a critical time, and he muttered whether he should recruit some talents from the rivers and lakes for his use. Jianghu people have many skills, as long as they are loyal and reliable, it is more useful than re-cultivating henchmen.

Pei Min can't startle the snake for the time being, and he can only wait for the change.

Pei Min re-processed the affairs of the Yushitai, but heard Gao Lishi walk into his office and shouted anxiously: "Pei Zhongcheng, Pei Zhongcheng!" ”

Pei Min was curious, the appearance of Gao Lishi often represents Li Longji, even if he goes to the prime minister's official residence, but Gao Lishi is known for being cautious and careful, every time he looks for someone to meet, he patiently waits for the transmission, there is almost no such thing as breaking in, especially seeing that Gao Lishi's head has a red and swollen mark, and his nose also has a little scar, which is even more strange. Gao Lishi is recognized as the number one celebrity and the first confidant next to Li Longji, and someone can hurt him?

"Gao Neisquire, what are you?" Pei Min stood up to greet him.

Gao Lishi hurriedly said: "Let's talk while walking, my Datang's face will be saved by Zhongcheng." ”

Pei Min was puzzled, but he followed according to his words, and couldn't help but ask again: "Waiter you are injured?" ”

Gao Lishi was annoyed and resentful, and said: "It was for the Tibetan monk to be injured." ”

Gao Lishi's status today is indeed no one can hurt him, but he can compete in martial arts, but his fists and feet have no eyes, but it is another matter.

Today, Li Longji, as always, asked the Ministry of Rites to entertain the Tibetan envoys, and watched the polo match of the Tang Dynasty with them at noon. Li Longji's intention is obvious, he wants to have a friendly match with Tubo to once again frustrate Tubo's spirit. At the beginning, the Tibetan envoy was also invited to watch the polo match, and the Tibetan envoy proposed to compete with the Tang Dynasty polo team.

At that time, the polo team of the Tang Dynasty was not prepared to play Tubo, but later Li Longji, Li Yong, Yang Shenjiao, and Wu Yanxiu appeared, and the four of them fought against ten people, which directly beat the Tubo polo team and raised their eyebrows.

This time, Li Longji made full preparations, and specially arranged in advance several "golfers" who played polo with him in the past, and urged them to train special for today's use. As a result, no one expected that Tubo would never mention the polo game, and did not have the slightest idea of comparing polo with the Tang Dynasty, and many preparations were in vain.

At the state banquet after polo, the Tibetan envoy proposed to admire the divine might of the Tang warriors, and the Tibetan warriors hoped to compete with the Tang warriors.

Although Li Longji was defenseless, he didn't believe that the warriors of the Tang Dynasty were inferior to the warriors of Tubo, so he agreed.

As a result, the Tang Dynasty sent two warriors, both of whom were defeated by the Tibetan monks, and they had no power to fight back, and they did not take ten moves. Li Longji's face was extremely ugly, and Gao Lishi couldn't see it, so he won glory for the Lord and went to the competition in person.

Colliers is not as obscene as he is on TV, on the contrary, he is tall and has good courage and martial arts. He fought with the Tibetan monk for twenty times, and he didn't want to be deceived by the monk, so he swept his leg and kicked him to the ground. Gao Lishi's injuries were not serious, but he landed on the ground with his face on the door, and his nose and forehead touched the marks, which looked extremely scary.

Datang lost three games in a row, and he was disgraced, while the Tubo envoy was very proud and laughed at Datang for having no one.

Li Longji has the best face, he is only so angry that one Buddha was born and the second Buddha ascended to heaven, but the warriors under his command did not give strength, so he could only sulk.

Gao Lishi thought of Pei Min and proposed to Li Longji to invite Pei Min and let him deal with the Tibetan monks.

Pei Min recently lost to Chang'an Jianghu Famous Mansion, Li Longji heard a rumor or two even if he was in the palace, and there was still a little hesitation there, so he directly asked Gao Lishi to come out of the palace to invite.

Pei Min was furious when he heard the reason, he had no good impression of the Tubo thieves, especially when he just learned that the Tubo thieves had taken their Hexi Jiuqu land in the Tang Dynasty without blood, and his heart was even more hateful, and now he heard the Tubo scum and deceived them that there was no one in the Tang Dynasty, and he showed off his might at the banquet, and he still endured it, and said angrily: "Don't worry, I will definitely avenge you for this revenge." ”

Gao Lishi has a very good impression of Pei Min, the main reason is that Pei Min regards him as an ordinary person, a normal person, who does not stammer or discriminate. As a disabled eunuch, although Gao Lishi has a very good mentality, he will eventually have a little inferiority. He is now in a very high position, and it can be said that he has achieved fame. But as a eunuch, there are those who discriminate against him, those who please him, and those who ignore him, such as Pei Min, but there are few who regard him as a normal person.

Gao Lishi doesn't care about others' discrimination, flattery, or even ignorance, but cares about Pei Min treating him with a normal attitude. At this moment, seeing him speaking for himself angrily, he hurriedly said: "What is this injury, as long as Pei Zhongcheng can defeat the Tibetan monk and save His Majesty's face." Gao is grateful here......" After a pause, he said: "Zhongcheng can't be careless, that Tubo monk is not a common warrior in the temple, and he has a bit of the posture of the people of the rivers and lakes." ”
