Chapter 740: Expedition with Chu Yao
Fang Xuanling looked at Cai Cong with a blushing face, this guy is now more and more like a big traitor, and he doesn't know what kind of moth he came up with, so he went down to the court and summoned them over.
"Your Majesty summoned me for some reason?" Fang Xuanling glanced at Cai Cong as he spoke, and said meaningfully, "Some courtiers always like to encourage the monarch to do something inappropriate to achieve their own goals, Your Majesty must not be gullible!" ”
"I hope I've been instigated, so I don't have to gather all of you."
Li Chengqian said with a smile, everyone only felt that something was going to happen, Li Chengqian said it easily, but his expression was very solemn.
"The ministers don't know why, please make it clear to Your Majesty!" Fang Xuanling bowed down and said, although he felt that this matter had nothing to do with Cai Cong, he could only ask.
"The Turkic details came to the news, Lu Dongzan's son Qinling did not return to Tibet after persuading the Turks to send troops, but went to the two countries of Da Shi and Ji Ri, I analyzed with the king of Zhen, the possibility of Ji Sun and Da Shi sending troops is extremely high, if the four countries join forces, my Datang will face a million troops, this will be a shocking war."
As soon as Li Chengqian's words fell, everyone present stood up, and the eldest grandson Wuji shouted loudly: "The slave of the barbarians is dead, my heart of Huaxia is not dead, I should be killed!" ”
Cai Cong's definition of this guy is an arrogant person, arrogantly believing that he should have the right to lead a hundred officials, and arrogantly thinking that people in the Tang Dynasty should look down on barbarians.
"Is the message accurate? There are 100,000 enemies, even if my Datang has the assistance of an artifact like a bomb, the strength is also insufficient, and there are too many places in the vast territory that need to be guarded. ”
Fang Xuanling furrowed his brows and asked Cai Cong, many people are confused what a water bomb is? How unheard of?
Cai Cong grinned and showed eight white teeth and said to Fang Xuanling, "Let me tell you the bad news, most of the bombs stored in the past few decades have been damaged because they have been stored improperly, and the remaining bombs have been handed over to Xu Yuan and them to take away." ”
Cai Cong's naughty words failed to make Fang Xuanling laugh, and he was almost unable to stand firm when he was frightened by this bad news, but fortunately Ma Zhou behind him supported him.
"In this way, don't you want my soldiers of the Tang Dynasty to use their flesh and blood to fight with the soldiers of the four countries?"
Fang Xuanling felt that he couldn't stand it, if this was the case, how many of these soldiers would not be able to come back, such a large-scale war would drag the country down.
"It's not yet certain whether the Great Eclipse and Ring Day will send troops, but we need to be prepared. This king intends to lead the army to garrison Qiuzi to prevent the Great Food from coming through the Green Ridge. Then send Chu Moxuan to lead 50,000 elite soldiers to Tubo to prevent the Japanese from taking advantage of Tubo. ”
Cai Cong said calmly, they have finished talking about the general situation, and they should leave some time for the big guys to consider whether they should send troops.
"Be prepared, this official supports the dispatch of troops, the eldest son of the dog, Sun Chong, also led the troops to kill pirates back then, and the minister asks Your Majesty to allow my son to be the vanguard of the extermination of Tibet."
The eldest grandson Wuji stood up and said loudly, his debut was later than that of the eldest grandson, and Ma Zhou, who had no background, was mixed into the position of Shangshu, and the eldest grandson Chong was still a waiter, which made the eldest grandson Wuji regret letting his wife go back then.
"Even if there are 50,000 additional troops, the number of troops attacking Tibet is only 300,000, how can we resist the joint efforts of Tubo and Jieri? How many troops does the town king plan to bring to Qiuzi? ”
Fang Xuanling is not like the eldest grandson Wuji who is still thinking about his personal interests at this time, if he is sincere for the country, then he should send his son to Cai Cong's account, he can guess that Cai Cong's troops are definitely not much.
"This king has enough troops of 150,000 troops." Cai Cong said lightly, Wei Zheng said coldly, "The old man remembers that you slaughtered the prince of the Great Food Country in Yangzhou in the early years, if the Great Food really sent troops, the number of troops would never be less than three or four hundred thousand, how can you resist with 150,000?" ”
"Too much! The Tibetan side needs 300,000 troops, the Turkic side also has 360,000 troops, the 200,000 navy on the Yangzhou side can't move, the army in the capital can't move, and the armies in other places. ”
Cai Cong said with a smile, everyone else was silent, and gathering millions of troops was no problem for Datang at all. But the price is that Datang will be paralyzed.
"I intend that Xu Jingzong, Cai Gang and Fang Zhizhi will be responsible for the logistics, Xu Jingzong will be the main one, and the other two will be auxiliary."
"Your Majesty, can you negotiate peace? This battle will make the people miserable when the world is beaten? The prosperous era created by the first emperor for decades will surely cease to exist. ”
Fang Xuanling said in a sad voice, he naturally knew that if he negotiated peace like this, Li Chengqian, the emperor, would lose his face, but for the sake of the people of the world, he could only open this mouth.
"Alas, I can understand that Fang Lao is the heart of the country, but this battle is inevitable. If the Tibetans want us to cede Dingxiang, the Turks want us to pay tribute, the Jieri wants us to give up the sea lane, and the Great Food wants us to hand over Cai Cong, do you think we should also negotiate peace? ”
Li Chengqian sighed and said, Fang Xuanling was speechless, if he proposed peace, such a situation was very likely to happen, and these conditions could never be agreed.
"If there is no way to avoid it, then it is not avoided, and Cai Cong, the king of the town, dispatched troops and sent generals by himself, leading 150,000 soldiers to be stationed in Qiuzi. Ordered Chu Moxuan to send 50,000 troops to Tubo, with Changsun Chong as the vanguard of the army.
All the departments of the DPRK and the Central Committee need to make every effort to prepare, and if anyone dares to slack off, he will be beheaded. ”
Everyone leaned over and said yes, and there was a violent quarrel in the study, the configuration of logistics, the production of weapons in the Ministry of Industry, the distribution time of grain and grass in the Ministry of Households, and the dispatch of troops in the Ministry of War.
It seems that there are two words of war, but in fact, it has included all walks of life, and how to develop people's livelihood during the war has made officials almost noisy.
Chu Yao and the Wang family tried to persuade them to pause and have a meal or something, but they couldn't even enter the door, and they were blocked by the inner servants five zhang away from the door.
After arguing from the morning until the sun went down, a charter was finally drawn up, and Li Chengqian's desire to leave everyone for a meal was also rejected.
Back in the house, Cai Cong squatted at the kitchen door and ate two large bowls of noodles, then returned to the study to write hard, and it didn't take long for Xiao Liuzi to send the letter out with a pigeon.
Early the next morning, Cai Cong led the guards and left quietly, usually going out to fight this house to plant the battle flag and beat the drums.
But this time it was carried out quietly, and even the 150,000 troops marched day and night, and no one knew who was leaving.
And in the palace, a eunuch knelt in front of Chu Yao and said respectfully, "Niangniang, His Royal Highness the King of Zhen has been away for a long time, and now there are so many government affairs in the court, and the minister and His Majesty can't handle it with ten more hands." ”
"So what do you want to say?" Chu Yao's eyes were cold when she looked at the eunuch, she didn't like these subordinates to look like they were holding Zhizhu in front of her.
"Niangniang doesn't want to help His Majesty deal with government affairs during this time, according to Xiao and others' understanding of the king of the town, he must be suspicious, and he will send someone to monitor him, and the ministers are also watching very closely.
However, there are too many government affairs, although Your Majesty is young and strong, but if you work for a few months, you will definitely fall ill, and then Niangniang does not need to speak, Your Majesty will also ask you to help, for now you just need to wait quietly. ”
The eunuch's tone was still very respectful, but the words were not so polite.
"Hongu knows. Although Bengong really wants to kill Li Zhi with his own hands, but you remember your identity, and next time you dare to talk to Bengong with such words, you just wait for the floating corpse too liquid pool! ”
Chu Yao's voice was crisp and cold, and the eyes of the eunuch were more like looking at a dead person, and he still had the gentle appearance on weekdays.
"The slave and maid remember, but please don't forget the mother, don't forget the agreement with the slave and maid when you have a lot of power in your hands."
The eunuch said respectfully, Chu Yao waved his hand to let him go down, a group of eunuchs, what is the difficulty of the palace maids asking the court to provide for them?
