Li Shimin ate the soup cakes, chewing the crumbs in his mouth, and tasted it repeatedly. The ministers enjoyed eating outside and did not pay attention to the bright spring weather.

When they heard the first cuckoo cry, people applauded, and some felt that the cuckoo call was an auspicious omen, indicating the coming of spring and the revival of all things. Some people don't feel it, it's another year for him, and he is getting older, but he hasn't made any substantial progress, and he wastes his time.

There was a sound of urgent footsteps outside the hall, and a palace guard hurried to Li Shimin. Li Shimin subconsciously felt that it must be an extraordinary thing, otherwise the guards would not be so nervous. This run shook all the civil and military officials to see what was going on.

By the time the guards went up to the hall, Li Shimin was already sitting upright, ready to submit the guards' reports at any time.

Guard: "Holy Lord, according to the report from the frontier, the situation of the Turkic war has changed dramatically...... Villain"

Li Shimin: "Don't swallow this kind of war situation!" Hurry up and let the widow know! ”

The guards knelt down under the hall in trepidation, and all the officials gathered outside the hall to listen to the battle.

Guard: "The frontier returns, the Turkic Turkic Khan has built a tooth tent in the north of Youzhou, ready to inform the eastern region. However, after encountering the surrender of his subordinates, Jieli Khan angrily rebuked Tuli Khan. In the crusade between Xue Yantuo and the Hui Dynasty, the Tuli Khan was defeated again, and the Jieli Khan imprisoned him for more than ten days at once, and whipped him in public, so the Tuli Khan finally made up his mind to surrender! ”

Li Shimin raised his hand, and everything was logical to ask the guards for something.

Li Shimin: "Jieli Khan treats him like this, and he has only one result." ”

As Li Shimin wished, the guard gave him an oath, the process was very solemn, and the guard walked towards Li Shimin step by step, burying his head and holding the oath in his hand.

Li Shimin glanced at it quickly and laughed out loud.

Li Shimin: "What a place to go, where the avenue goes!" It's amazing that there are such literary people on the side of the Turki Khan! ”

The eldest grandson Wuji and the others laughed outside the door without saying a word, Fang Xuanling was a little worried, but soon looked at Li Shimin's such a flamboyant appearance, and dispelled his thoughts.

Li Shimin: "With this oath, even if the Tuli Khan is standing with us, if nothing else, the Jieli Khan should send troops later." What are you watching from the door? Haven't eaten yet? Why don't you come to help with the world's great affairs? ”

Li Shimin shouted to the ministers outside to come in like a child, and not long after, the ministers all behaved like the previous court, and stood in several rows.

Li Shimin: "Some people should have heard it just now, and some people should still not have heard it." Then I repeat, the Turki Khan wants to surrender to our Tang Dynasty, what do you think of this? ”

The eldest grandson Wuji shared his worries: "The Turks are no longer what they used to be, the Weishui Alliance was nothing to them, the integrity of the Hu people is very low, I hope the saint will not act rashly because of a small oath, although the Turks are rude, but the Weishui Alliance is still there!" We Datang must be cautious in every move. ”

Song Guogong rarely spoke: "Sooner or later, the world will be the territory of my Tang Dynasty, as the so-called world is not the king's land, and the coast of the land is not the king's minister?" Only those who dare to expand their territory can become a generation of kings! ”

Fang Xuanling: "No matter what, we have to see if the people in the world want us to fight for this." ”

Li Shimin's brain hurt when he heard it, everyone was arguing every day, it was commonplace for him, and it was not a big deal, Li Shimin turned his head and asked Du Ruhui, the secretary of the military department in charge of military affairs, to see what his henchmen thought.

Li Shimin: "The secretary of the Ministry of War, you are my minister of the Tang Dynasty, Aiqing, look at this battle, do we fight it or not?" ”

Du Ruhui: "We first have to look at the pros and cons of this battle. Tuli Khan is a powerful force under Jieli Khan, but since the betrayal of Xue Yantuo and Hui Hui, the strength of Jieli Khan can be said to be declining, day by day, far worse than last year, we made a covenant, which can be described as this time and that time. Our Datang was in the midst of civil strife last year, and also encountered a major drought in the Guannei, such as today it has finally stabilized, and after a period of recuperation, the soldiers are in a better state and full of morale, which is very beneficial to the war! The knot in the hearts of the ministers is whether we have violated the Weishui Alliance. In the opinion of the lower officials, not only did we not violate the Weishui Alliance, but we also continued to abide by it. ”
