"Your Highness, Your Highness has five strategies to help Your Highness pacify the towns of the world."

Seeing that Li Ye was worried about the situation in front of him, Li Zhen on the side spoke at the right time.

"Oh." Li Ye looked at Li Zhen curiously, "Five strategies for leveling the domain? Li Changshi elaborated. ”

At this time, Li Zhen no longer served as the supervisor of the Right Tiance Army, but was transferred to Shouwang Mansion as the chief historian, and at the same time was in charge of the Jinyi Wei intelligence system.

At the beginning of the establishment of Jinyiwei, Li Ye was very clear about its functions, that is, responsible for the security of the palace and the intelligence investigation function.

However, after arriving in Chang'an, he has been thinking about splitting Jinyiwei, but the time has not come. However, Li Ye's idea of separating the intelligence system from the guard system is not a secret, and it is just an attempt now.

Let Li Zhen be responsible, mainly because Li Zhen is smart and ruthless. As for loyalty, after such a long time of observation, it can be regarded as passing, otherwise Li Ye would not let the other party be responsible.

Li Zhen saluted slightly, and then said, "As several colleagues said, now that the secession of the feudal towns is strong, His Highness should not be too eager, but should take it slowly.

First, cut down Xichuan and put Xichuan under the actual control of the imperial court. Although now the imperial court, with the help of His Royal Highness, has mastered Fengxiang, Shannan Xidao, Dongchuan, Suining and Jingzhaofu. However, as Li Fuyin and Li Shangshu said, Jingzhao Mansion is in ruins, Suining is now controlled by Yang Shouliang, and the people of Fengxiang are exhausted. Shannan Xidao and Dongchuan together can compare to the wealth of Xichuan, so the next step to take Xichuan can not only increase the tax revenue of the imperial court, but also take the three towns of Shu as the rear, so that His Royal Highness can have the strength and capital to pacify the feudal towns.

Second, stabilize the internal roads. Although His Royal Highness temporarily reached an alliance with Yang Fugong, and Jingyuan and Yan Yan also obeyed the dispatch of the imperial court, after all, they were like separating and had to be guarded against. Moreover, Yang Fugong and Yang Shouliang are a great threat to His Highness in the long run. In my dynasty, there are eunuchs who abolish the management of the king on their own, and I believe that Yang Fugong is also eager to get rid of His Royal Highness and hurry up, so His Royal Highness and Yang Fugong will break up sooner or later. After capturing Xichuan, His Highness should consider how to deal with Yang Fugong, and then the four towns of Jingyuan, Suining, Yanyan, and Qinzhou should be completely brought under His Highness's control.

Third, attack the south. There are many feudal towns in the north, and the larger ones are Li Keyong, Zhu Xuan, Zhu Wen, Wang Chongrong, Shi Pu, Qin Zongquan, Zhuge Shuang, Wang Jingwu, Li Congwei, Wang Chucun, etc., all of which are strong domains. On the other hand, the separatist forces of the feudal towns in the southern region are not strong, and the larger ones are Gao Biao, Zhang Gui, Dong Chang, Qian Bi, etc., which are much weaker than the strong feudal lords in the north. Moreover, the south has suffered less wars, and if His Highness can seize the southern provinces, he will have no worries about money and food. The southern strategy can start with Jingnan and Shannan Dongdao, and with a bridgehead, it will be easier.

Fourth, develop the economy of Guannei Province, Shudi and other places, and attack Hexi. Now that Tibet is in civil strife, and its territory is fighting its own war, this is an excellent time to recover Hexi, occupying the land of Hexi, you can open up the trade route to the Western Regions, and you can also get suitable pastures and breed excellent war horses. It is difficult to deal with the strong northern vassals without a strong cavalry, especially in the face of the Shatuo army.

Fifth, it is necessary to combine vertical and horizontal, and use strength to pacify the northern feudal domains. The relationship between the powerful feudal lords in the north is not harmonious, the contradictions between Li Keyong and Zhu Wen are irreconcilable, and the same is true for others, His Royal Highness only needs to divide and disintegrate in the name of the imperial court, and then gather and annihilate them when the time is ripe, which is bound to pacify the division of the northern vassals. ”

After listening to Li Zhen's words, Li Ye couldn't help but gasp, obviously moved by Li Zhen's words. This Li Zhen is indeed worthy of his reputation, although there is a loss in terms of solar terms in history, but in terms of strategy, it is indeed extraordinary, by peeling off the cocoon, he will present the grand plan of the entire flat world in front of him.

Even Li Yingxu is a little ashamed, but he will not admit defeat, Li Zhen has Li Zhen's strengths, and he also has his advantages.

"Then how long does Li Changshi think it will take for this king to pacify the secession of this feudal town?" According to Li Zhen's plan, Li Ye already has a rough plan, but he also wants to hear the other party's opinion.

Li Zhen thought for a while and said, "Fifteen years at least, twenty years at most." The secession of feudal towns is a problem accumulated over more than 100 years, and it is not realistic for His Highness to change the situation of feudal secession in a short period of time, so he can only take it step by step.

For the time node, Xia Guan has a rough plan. pacify Xichuan within one year; Within three years; Raid Jiangnan and Hexi in five to ten years, this can be done at the same time.

All that remains is to pacify the northern strong domains, which can also be done at the same time as others, but it needs to be controlled to a certain extent, which can not only provoke a big war between the strong domains, but also weaken the strong domains so that they cannot threaten the imperial court. ”

Li Ye couldn't help but nodded, and said with emotion, "Mr.'s words have made this king suddenly open up to the general trend of the world." Not bad, that's good! ”

For Li Ye's praise, Li Yingxu and Li Mi are a little envious, Li Ye rarely praises people like this, and he also calls each other 'sir'.

Subsequently, Li Ye's appointment made the two even more envious, and Li Ye immediately appointed Li Zhen as a scholar of Wude Palace, and followed Li Ye into Wude Hall to comment on the form, and should be with the article.

Although Li Ye didn't say that this Wude Hall scholar was a few rank officials, he usually followed Li Ye to deal with government affairs, which was not something that others could get if they wanted to.

Li Yingxu is also envious, but he is Jingzhao Mansion Yin, and he has his own things to do. Jingzhao Mansion has 23 counties under its jurisdiction, and there are a lot of things, and it is impossible to stay by Li Ye's side all the time.

In fact, it can be seen that the four people present are all surnamed Li. It's not that Li Ye prefers people with the same surname, but most of the other cronies are in the local or military, such as Zheng Ningji, Liu Qi, Sun Ye, and Xu Shiren are not in Chang'an. In Chang'an, there are only Pei Rong, Li Yingxu, Li Mi and Li Zhen.

"In this case, Li Keyong has become the king of Longxi County, and Zhu Wen can't be left behind, so send out the edict that is stuck." Li Ye thought for a while and said.

In fact, in his heart, the foreign surname is not the king, but looking at it now, it can't be completely according to his ideas. To find an opponent for Li Keyong, except for Zhu Wen, no one is more suitable, because no one can beat this Li Keyong.

Just when Li Ye was thinking about what excuse to send troops to Xichuan, Zheng Congyan and Xiao Yu came together.

The reason for the two is very simple, they want to discuss the list of ministers with Li Ye.

After Li Ye entered the imperial court, he appointed many official positions, but he did not confirm the prime minister.

In addition to those fixed prime ministers in the middle and later periods, the prime ministers of the Tang Dynasty also added Tongping Zhangshi to increase the number of prime ministers. The full name of "Tongping Zhangshi" is "Tongzhongshu Menxia Pingzhangshi", which is the real prime minister. After the Anshi Rebellion, Zhongshu Ling and Shizhong became a fictitious title, and those who were also in the Zhongshu Order, Shizhong or Tongping Zhangshi were also fictitious titles, which were called envoys.

Before Huang Chao broke Chang'an, Li Yi often appointed many prime ministers in one go, just like playing.

However, after Li Ye entered the imperial court, Li Yi, the emperor, was like a puppet, so the appointment of the prime minister was in the hands of Li Ye and Yang Fugong.

And now there are only two prime ministers, one is the Zhongshu Shilang Xiaoyu, which is a fixed prime minister; The second is Zheng Congyan, if he is only a servant, he is naturally not a prime minister, but he also serves as a servant, and he can be regarded as the actual prime minister.

However, apart from these two people, there are no other prime ministers, which is naturally unreasonable, and these two prime ministers can't be responsible for everything.

However, for the prime minister candidate, Li Ye has other ideas, set up so many prime ministers to empty himself?

"Xiao Xiang, Zheng Xiang, this daily matter, it is enough to have you two prime ministers, and the rest will be handed over to the Wude Palace, and the king will handle it." Li Ye said with a smile.

"Your Highness, there are many twists and turns, and with the strength of His Highness, I am afraid that I will not be able to do it. Now that the situation is chaotic, His Royal Highness should put his body first, otherwise the peace talks will revive the Tang Dynasty, and the election of a few more prime ministers can also help His Highness share his worries. Zheng Congyan suggested.

"This Zheng Xiang doesn't have to worry, this king has his own way."

No matter how Zheng Congyan and the two persuaded each other, Li Ye did not agree to increase the number of prime ministers, but they soon knew the reason.

Li Ye successively appointed Li Zhen as a scholar of Wude Palace, Pei Rong as a scholar of Taiji Palace, Xiao Yu as a scholar of Hanyuan Palace, Zheng Ningji as a scholar of Liangyi Palace, and Zheng Congyan as a scholar of Chongwenguan.

Only then did the two understand that Li Ye wanted to reform the system and abolish the old prime minister system. Although the position of this scholar is set to be on the fifth grade, both of them have been in the officialdom for so many years, and now Li Ye is in charge of the military and political power in the DPRK and China, what is the difference between this scholar and the previous prime minister?

。。。。。。

On April 1 of the second year of Guangqi of the Tang Dynasty, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty issued an edict to seal Zhu Quanzhong as the king of Peijun, the master of the school, and 3,000 households.

"Congratulations to the festival handsome. No, congratulations to the king of the county. ”

Seeing the content of the holy decree, Jing Xiang hurriedly changed his words and arched his hand at Zhu Wen to congratulate.

"Congratulations to the county king! His Majesty and His Royal Highness King Shou can praise the king of the county, hoping that the king of the county can put down the rebellion of Qin Zongquan as soon as possible and support the Tang Dynasty. Zhang Cheng squinted his eyes and said.

And next to him, there was a young man dressed in ordinary clothes, who did not look like a eunuch. Unlike Zhang Cheng, this young man cautiously looked at Zhu Wen in front of him and the people around him, and Zhu Wen and the people around him didn't care about this young man, let alone think about other places.

This person's name is Xie Xu, a student of the Martial Arts Academy, not very old, but he is one of the outstanding students of the Martial Arts Academy. He is considered an old man of Jinyiwei, and with his identity as a martial arts scholar, he was quickly reused.

This time, he came to Bianzhou with Zhang Cheng to announce the decree, in addition to observing Zhu Wen at close range, he was mainly responsible for suggesting the stronghold of Jinyiwei here. In the list of important figures in Jinyiwei, Zhu Wen ranks second, the first is Yang Fugong, and the third is Li Keyong.

Hearing that the eunuch in front of him deliberately mentioned King Shou, Zhu Wen squinted his eyes and laughed, "Please go back and return to Your Majesty and His Royal Highness King Shou on behalf of Zhu, just say that Zhu will definitely be loyal to the court, and take King Shou as the head of the horse." This is a little gift, and it is also troublesome for the father-in-law to forward it to His Royal Highness King Shou on behalf of Zhu. ”

After speaking, Zhu Wen clapped his hands, and asked people to carry out a few wooden boxes from the back room, and opened them to see that there were countless gold, silver and jewelry, and many rare treasures, as well as a few young women.
