Chapter 757: The Imperial Dispute (II)

The ministers didn't want to speak, because they were afraid of saying the wrong thing, and Li Xian was not in a hurry to speak, he was waiting for the Empress Wu to speak, not for anything else, just because Li Xian had already expected that Empress Wu would definitely not agree to hand over the military power to Li Zhen.

"Xian'er has always been good at martial arts, do you have any opinion on this war, huh?"

Gaozong waited for a long time, but he didn't see anyone willing to come forward, so he couldn't help but be annoyed, and didn't want to wait like this anymore, so he simply called Li Xian's name directly.

Yes, the old man is really in a hurry, so he will catch the strong man!

Since the old man has been named, even if Li Xian is unwilling, he can only stand up, bow down, and say in a calm tone: "Back to my father's words, my sons think that although it is easy to quell the chaos this time, it is difficult to be stable, and it is necessary to suppress and appease them in the end, this is fundamental, however, the handling must be different from the rebellion in the hometown of Tubo. ”

"Well, Xian'er's words are very good, I think so, what do you think?"

Gaozong's fundamental purpose in calling Li Xian out was to ask him to fight with Li Zhen to fight the opponent, so as to take this opportunity to refuse Li Zhen's volunteering, but he didn't expect Li Xian to talk about the strategy, but he never mentioned who should be in charge, this kind of answer is obviously not quite in line with Gaozong's original intention, but what Li Xian said is right after all, but Gaozong is not good at accusing Li Xian of slippery head, so he can only make a relieved nod and diverge Li Zhen's volunteering.

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that it should be so, the wolf nature of the grassland is very deep, and those who cannot be domesticated should use heavy troops to deter them!"

As soon as Gaozong's words fell, Liu Renliang had already taken the lead in standing up and echoed in a loud voice.

"This is true, the ministers have no objection!"

With Liu Renliang taking the lead, all the Zaifu also followed suit, not all of them were cheering for Li Xian, but the truth was like this, the people present were all shrewd, how could they not see that all the departments of the grassland were full of wolf nature, except for heavy fists and subduation, don't expect the grassland departments to naturalize themselves at all.

"Well, then it's decided, I should send a large army to put an end to this chaos!"

Seeing that all the Zaisuke agreed to Li Xian's strategic plan, Gaozong also considered a matter on his mind, and finalized the matter in a word, but he was afraid of Li Zhen's face, but did not mention who was in charge.

"Your Majesty, the war should not be delayed, if the position is uncertain for a day, all kinds of matters cannot be carried out, and the concubine thinks that this is a matter of urgency, and it is advisable to make a decision as soon as possible."

Gaozong didn't want to mention it, but Empress Wu obviously had her own way of calculation, and she didn't want to drag on the matter of selecting the commander, what she was afraid of was that Li Xian would play tricks behind her back, and she was also worried that Li Zhen would have another ambush, so she hurriedly turned out the topic of the selection of the coach.

"Hmm, do you have any candidates to recommend?"

Gaozong and Empress Wu have been married for many years, and they have long known that although Empress Wu is excellent in government affairs, but his ability in military affairs is very limited, therefore, this has always been, but all military affairs, Gaozong has never handed over to Empress Wu to deal with, not all because of the sense of prevention, but more about Empress Wu's talent in this area is not optimistic.

"Your Majesty, the concubine thought that this battle must be done quickly, if not, it would be difficult to deter the ambition of the wolf son of the various departments of the grassland, therefore, the concubine thought that this leader should be famous, in the past, General Xue Rengui set the Tianshan Mountain with three arrows, and the prestige was far away in the grassland, and the departments heard it, and they were not afraid.

The Empress Wu has not had any outstanding performance in the military, this time in order to entrainment private goods, but there is no less to ask Gal Yin Bow, this time a word will come down, it is really a bit of a military strategist.

"Well, Xue Rengui is a good candidate, what do you think?"

Gaozong's impression of Xue Rengui has always been very good, even if Xue Rengui has the fault of the defeat of Dafeichuan, the holy family has always been undiminished, not only privately paid for Xue Rengui to atone for his crimes, but also did not take long to restore Xue Rengui again.

Xue Rengui? What does this old thief woman propose Xue Rengui to do? No, there is definitely a problem!

As soon as he heard that the candidate proposed by the Empress Wu was Xue Rengui, Li Xian couldn't help but be stunned, not that he had a bad impression of Xue Rengui, in fact, Li Xian still respected Xue Rengui's talent, and did not have the slightest contempt for it because he had suffered the defeat of Dafeichuan, in Li Xian's view, with Xue Rengui's ability, he was enough to be the commander of this counterinsurgency, the problem is that this proposal came out of the mouth of the Empress Wu, Li Xian had to think about it more, but it was difficult to find out what the motive behind Empress Wu's move was in a short period of time, But no matter what, Li Xian must not allow the situation to slide in the direction of Empress Wu.

"Father, the child thinks that General Xue Rengui is certainly the tiger general of the world, if he uses it to quell the rebellion, he can indeed return with a great victory, but the difficulty of this war is not in the war itself, if it is just a war, most of my generals in the Tang Dynasty can be competent and more than enough, but it is difficult to care, and those who have to have a strategy cannot do it, therefore, Erchen thinks that although General Xue is brave to crown the three armies, he is not the most suitable candidate, and he asks his father to think twice."

Without waiting for Zhu Zaifu to speak, Li Xian had already flashed out from the side and refuted the Empress Wu's opinion fiercely.

"Well......, who does Xian'er think should be in charge?"

Gaozong originally had the intention to agree to Empress Wu's proposal, but when he heard Li Xian say this, he couldn't help but hesitate, and after muttering for a while, he cautiously asked.

"Qi Qi father, the son thinks that this is none other than Pei Xingjian and Pei Xiang!"

As for who should be in charge, Li Xian naturally had a plan for a long time, he had a bottom in his heart, he was not panicked, and when he answered Gaozong's question, he seemed extraordinarily neat.

"Hmm...... what do you think of Xian'er's proposal?"

Gaozong knows that Pei Xingjian can fight, and he is also familiar with politics, and he is fully qualified to take the position of commander of this rebellion, in comparison, compared to Xue Rengui, he is better, the problem is that Xue Rengui proposed by the Empress Wu is also a good choice, this mother and son are so pinched, Gaozong really didn't know how to choose for a while, besides, there is a volunteer King Yue on the side, which really makes Gaozong have a headache, and in desperation, he has to ask Zhu Zaifu.

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said is very true, and this battle must be commanded by Pei Xiang to ensure that it is safe!"

Liu Renliang is a staunch backbone of the prince, and he did not hesitate to stand up and appeal for Li Xian.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this battle should be rushed and fast, General Xue is famous in the grassland, and he is in charge, and he can win quickly!"

Jia Chaoyin is a hardcore rear party, and he has to open his eyes for the martial queen.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is not difficult to win the battle quickly, and it is difficult to follow up on the pension matter, so it is not possible for Pei Xiang to do it!"

As soon as he saw Jia Chaoyin coming out, Liu Renliang naturally refused to show weakness, and went back confidently.

"Liu Xiang's words are wrong, quick victory is the top priority, and the matter of compensation can be done by civilian officials, and those who are in charge of the commander, why do they need to bow down to everything!"

Although Jia Chaoyin's ability is not good, he is never ambiguous when he closely follows the martial arts, and when he is loyal to this, he is willing to back down slightly.

"Hmm!"

Liu and Jia couldn't compete with each other so much, only to quarrel so much that Gaozong's head hurt, and he really couldn't stand it, so he waved his hand impatiently, snorted coldly, stopped the two of them from arguing, reached out and stroked his forehead, looked at Li Xian with a sad face, looked at Empress Wu again, gritted his teeth and said: "I have made a decision, this battle will be led by Pei Xingjian, and Xue Rengui will be the deputy, so it is decided!" ”

"Father Emperor Shengming!"

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

……

As soon as Gaozong's words came out, Li Xian was the first to stand up and praise them, and the ministers did not dare to make any more extraneous branches, and they all praised each other.

"Your Majesty, the concubine has an idea, I don't know whether to talk about it or not."

Gaozong made a final decision, in this mother-son contest, the Empress Wu seemed to have fallen behind, but the Empress Wu did not seem to have a trace of frustration, and always sat upright like a ritual, until everyone praised it, then opened her mouth unhurriedly.

"Hmm, Mei Niang has something to say, I listen."

The reason why Gaozong chose Pei Xingjian instead of Xue Rengui was completely out of military and political considerations, rather than really wanting to embarrass Empress Wu, in fact, his fear of internal problems has never improved, and when he heard that Empress Wu still had something to say, he couldn't help but feel a little weak in his heart.

"Your Majesty, the concubine also thinks that Pei Xiang is enough to be qualified for the handsome position, and the victory in this battle can be expected, but the generals of my dynasty are getting older, and the follow-up generals are really lacking.

Empress Wu obviously knew that Gaozong was worried about something, so he first reassured Gaozong as soon as he came up, and then expressed his desire to cultivate reserve talents, which was impeccable as far as the matter itself was concerned.

"Mei Niang's words are very good, so it's okay to make it."

As soon as he heard that Empress Wu was reasonable, Gaozong naturally would not object, and he readily agreed.

"Your Majesty Shengming, the concubine thinks that there are a lot of young talents in Beijing, but they lack experience, if they can be supported by Pei Xiang this time, they will be able to achieve something in the future, and the concubine asks for the responsibility of screening for this, and asks Your Majesty for permission."

Empress Wu said such a big thing in front of him, in order to draw Gaozong's consent, and when he saw that Gaozong had already agreed, he hurriedly climbed up the pole.

"This is a trivial matter, Mei Niang looks at it and does it, I am tired, and I will discuss it here today."

The military affairs have been decided, Gaozong will not think much about the strangeness behind the proposal of the Empress Wu, as soon as the fatigue in the bones of the body comes up, the person can not support it a little, he yawns loudly without much image, waves his hand, and pulls everyone away......
