The map is really incomprehensible, the map of this era is too simple, there are basically only city and road markings on it, fortunately, Li Su vaguely remembers the general direction, and his eyes followed Cheng Biting Jin's fingers all the way up, and finally stopped in the north.

"Xue Yantuo?" Li Su realized.

Cheng Yanjin nodded, and said with a smile: "Yes, Xue Yantuo, it is also related to you, at the beginning, you offered a favor policy, and later offered a strategy between the two countries, according to what you said in the past half a year, Your Majesty sent a large number of detailed works to go deep into Xue Yantuo, and at the same time spent a huge amount of money to buy the leaders and generals of Xue Yantuo's tribes, provoked the father-son relationship between the princes and the Khan, and laid out for more than half a year, and finally it was time to close the net, Xue Yantuo is now in chaos, many tribes have launched rebellions, Zhenzhu Khan has suppressed everywhere, and he is busy, and the internal friction has been very serious. The tribes fought and annexed each other, and the wars were frequent, and now Xue Yantuo can be said to be fragile and vulnerable. ”

Li Su gradually showed a sudden expression: "So, what Your Majesty means ......"

Cheng Yanjin nodded: "It's time to launch, a God-given opportunity to help me unify the north of the Tang Dynasty, and I will have no worries from now on!" Xue Yantuo and the Western Turks in the north have always been His Majesty's henchmen, and His Majesty has wanted to get rid of them for a long time, but Xue Yantuo has a strong army, which is on par with my Datang...... Hehe, now it's different, the time is right, the place is favorable, people are occupied, and if God doesn't take it, you will suffer from it. The one who created this good opportunity for my Datang is you kid. ”

"Since the beginning of the Central Plains Dynasty, the northern convenience has always been a big disaster in the Central Plains, so in the Spring and Autumn Period, the six countries began to build the Great Wall, the Qin Emperor unified the world, the Great Wall of the six countries connected, and later Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty did not hesitate to attack the Xiongnu in the north with the power of the country, in order to resist or eliminate the great trouble in the north. The same is true of the Tang Dynasty, no matter what the northern saying is, whether it is the Xiongnu, the Turks, or the Xue Yantuo Khanate, it will be the trouble of the Tang Dynasty after all. Your Majesty Yingwu I, will never allow such a big disaster to exist in Jiangshan Sheji, I used to worry too much and didn't dare to move lightly, but now because of your encouragement and strategy, the time has finally arrived. ”

Li Su finally understood: "So, Your Majesty wants to drive the expedition in person?" ”

Cheng Yanjin said with a smile: "Your Majesty attaches too much importance to this big war related to the fortunes of the country, and he is not at ease with anyone in the DPRK and China leading the army, and he must be personally recruited......"

Squinted his eyes at Li Su. Cheng Yanjin showed a sinister expression again: "Now, do you know why Your Majesty has laid out such a big situation?" ”

Li Su sighed: "If you want to conquer the court, you must first clear the internal worries in the court, otherwise I am afraid that Chang'an will change after the pro-conquest, and at the same time, it will also knock the mountain and shock the tiger to the door valves of the various families of the Tang Dynasty." Temporarily deterred the family and made them dare not move. In this way, Your Majesty can go out with peace of mind. ”

Cheng Yanjin laughed: "Sure enough, it's a waking baby, and I finally see His Majesty's intentions." ”

Li Su said bitterly: "If you can see it a few days earlier, then it will be called a real awakening." ”

Cheng Yanjin said slowly: "There are not many people who can see this matter, Wei Zheng's old man may be able to see it, but he is the most fierce." Whether it is true or not, only he knows it, in short, the most fierce quarrel is not necessarily the rebel minister, and the one who does not say a word is not necessarily the loyal minister. The water in the court is too muddy, and His Majesty still needs to brew about this matter for a few more days, but the movement caused by your "A Fang Gong Fu" is too big, and His Majesty has to start it in advance, baby, you are very good, Your Majesty has calculated everything, and you are not counted......"

Li Su thought of something, and couldn't help but say: "Since this matter is completely the bureau of His Majesty's arrangement, then the construction of the Daming Palace will naturally not be counted, and those people who have been recruited from all over the country ......"

"The holy decree is always the holy decree, it will not be faked, a total of 300,000 people are requisitioned from Guanzhong, Hedong, Hebei and other four provinces, these people will naturally not build Daming Palace, but ...... They don't want to go back. ”

Li Su said with a gloomy expression: "Your Majesty's personal expedition to Xue Yantuo is a protracted war, and 300,000 people have been transferred to the north to transport grain, grass and ordnance for my Tang Dynasty soldiers, which is just in time, and Your Majesty is calculating." ”

Cheng Yanjin sighed: "This is a national war, the Tang Dynasty monarchs, ministers, officials, people, and generals, etc., must work together, the soldiers fight with their lives in the front, and the people are as thin as possible in the rear, this battle aims to eliminate the troubles in the north and ensure the peace of my Tang Dynasty for a hundred years. Baby, it's not good to be too soft-hearted, teach Your Majesty how to reuse you in the future? In the future, the mountains and rivers are dangerous, and the land is extremely vicious, how can you survive? ”

Li Su's eyelids twitched a few times, and he stared at Cheng Yanjin in amazement: "The mountains are high and the water is dangerous, and the land is extremely vicious? Uncle Cheng means...... Your Majesty, want to be a boy? ”

"Count the distribution, and also entrust it with a heavy responsibility, I guess Your Majesty didn't expect you, but who asked you kid to make a heroic essay for the ages, which was very popular, and finally His Majesty's dragon eyes swept away, ho, there is a stupid boy there with a straight pestle, the size and length are just right, it's you."

Li Su: "............"

Cheng Biting Jin smiled and said: "A Fang Gong Fu" scolded His Majesty to the point of disgrace and lost face, you don't think that Your Majesty will only expose you for a few days, right?" Although His Majesty is as open-minded as the sea, the king's face still needs to be taken into account. ”

"But I'm still an ignorant child......" Li Su put on a weak pose.

Cheng Biting Jin was so disgusted that he snorted fiercely: "Now that I know that I am pretending to be tender, what did I think when the Golden Palace was impassioned?" Put away your disgusting appearance quickly, or the old man will kick you to death. ”

The thick finger of the mallet pressed on the sheepskin map, and Li Su's gaze followed Cheng Jin's finger all the way to the west, to the west......

"Stop! OK! Uncle Cheng's subordinates are merciful, where does Your Majesty want to send me to? Li Su grabbed Cheng Biting Jin's finger and didn't let it move anymore, and before that, he could eat Turpan raisins and lamb skewers, which was especially hot......

"Let go! Bastard thing, now know scared? Cheng Biting Jin glared, his mallet-like fingers moved an inch westward again, and finally stopped on a city with circles drawn.

"Xizhou?" Li Su looked dazed.

"Well, Xizhou, Your Majesty intends to set up the Xizhou Metropolitan Protectorate, and 10,000 elites will be stationed in Xizhou, do you know what Your Majesty's intentions are?" Cheng Yanjin squinted at him.

Li Su looked at the map carefully, and the more he looked at it, the more solemn his expression became, and after a long time, he looked up at Cheng Yanjin: "Gao Changguo? ”

Cheng Biting Jin laughed: "Yes, Gaochangguo, haha, Datang has not fought a big war for a few years, and the surrounding neighbors have begun to be restless again, Gaochang King Lu Wentai has not paid tribute to Chang'an for several years, but has colluded with the Western Turks behind the back of the Tang Dynasty. I really thought that the Tang Dynasty's military strength was contained by Xue Yantuo, so I couldn't spare my hand to use troops against them......"

Li Su blinked: "So, Your Majesty is going to send me to lead the army to destroy Gaochang?" ”

"Phew!" Cheng Yanjin glanced at him with disdain: "Hairless boy who has not dried up, how can you lead the army to destroy the country?" Are we all dead? ”

"Then what does Your Majesty want me to do?"

Cheng bit the gold and rolled his eyes: "How does the old man know?" Wait, stay in prison for a few more days, the holy decree in the palace is about to come. ”

Li Su looked at Cheng Yanjin, and suddenly smiled: "Uncle Cheng came to Dali Temple to visit the prison today, it really cost a lot of spit, Uncle Cheng, what you said to the kid today, is it your own meaning, or did you receive Your Majesty's will to make the kid a little biter?" ”

"What is Your Majesty's will, what I said to you is naturally all the old man's own will......" Cheng Yanjin sighed: "People, as I get older, I can't control my mouth more and more, I just wanted to say one sentence, but I said thousands of words unconsciously, it's really ...... It's not okay to be old. ”

Li Su blinked and said with a smile: "Okay, the kid believes it." ”
