Chapter 2021: Easy to deal with
Wu Meiniang didn't lie, she never believed that Han Yi did all this for her, otherwise, there would not be that bed linen alliance. However, this is not believing, cooperation is cooperation, these are two different things, Wu Meiniang is willing to form an alliance with Han Yi, one is that she had no other choice at that time, and the other is that she also sees her own interests from it.
But she would never expect Han Yi to put the interests in her pocket, and when promoting Han Yi's plan, she has been observing whether it is beneficial for her to take this step, not to say, from what the overall situation is considered.
She asked that every step should be beneficial to herself, she would not think about the final result for the time being, because it was too far away, in fact, in the matter of Khitan, it was still beneficial to her, but she still felt that this benefit was too small and did not match the description in the plan, so she immediately expressed her dissatisfaction with Han Yi, and took the opportunity to bring the prince to the table to balance the game between her and Han Yi.
Although she is very low-key now, she is Wu Meiniang after all, not an ordinary woman.
Han Yi also knows that she won't believe it easily, this dream is said with her mouth, it is definitely a daydream, whether you really make up your mind in your heart and work hard for it, but people won't look at you, only the dream that is realized can be great, but it doesn't matter, he chose to cooperate with Wu Meiniang, and he was already prepared in this regard, he was even ready to stab Wu Meiniang in the back, but he believed that with the continuous emergence of interests, they could be tied together.
They have been until now, because of this, Wu Meiniang's status is still improving step by step, she is constantly benefiting, so of course Wu Meiniang is willing to cooperate.
It is precisely this complex and simple relationship between them that makes Wu Meiniang not need to hide too much in front of Han Yi, unhappy is unhappy, and she doesn't need the hypocritical set of politicians, which makes her feel very relaxed, which is diametrically opposed to her relationship with Mrs. Rongguo, but the effect is the same. The former is very trusting, and the latter is not the slightest trust.
However, the death of Mrs. Rongguo is really a big blow to her, she is not pretending, she really needs her mother very much, aside from the identity of her mother, in terms of trust alone, it is irreplaceable.
Therefore, she really needs to vent at this moment, and Han Yi is the only candidate.
When she came, she didn't plan to go back so early, it was really a naked need, and there were no other factors.
Therefore, unlike the first time, after a few rain clouds, Wu Meiniang did not immediately separate from Han Yi, but quietly lay in Han Yi's arms, enjoying the warmth of this moment, she has already paid attention, tonight is to indulge, don't think about anything.
Han Yi bent his arm pillow with one hand, gently stroked Wu Meiniang's smooth jade back with the other, and there was an aftertaste smile on the corner of his mouth, but as far as this sport is concerned, Fang Cai's passion is absolutely perfect. Even made him a little smug, because after the crossing, whether it was his figure or appearance, it was far inferior to before the crossing, and he could eat with his face before the crossing, but the talent in this area was really undoubted, and it gave him a lot of surprises.
It can be seen that there will be gains and losses.
In fact, of course, he, the old driver, can understand Wu Meiniang's doing, this is too common in later generations, suppressed for too long, and always has to vent through various channels, of course, he is not sympathetic to Wu Meiniang, this matter can't be sympathized, if you are not interested, you will not do it, although the talent is quite high, but he is also a robot, he does not deny it, the main thing is Wu Meiniang's plump and sexy body, and unique temperament, can indeed arouse his desire, he is not a gentleman, and there is already the first time, he has no pressure in his heart at all.
At the beginning, I didn't go on it, and I set up a broken archway to do something.
"What are you laughing at?" Wu Meiniang suddenly opened her eyes, her eyes downward, and looked at Han Yi.
Han Yizheng was reminiscing, his body couldn't help but tremble, and then he smiled: "I'm thinking that the things that the queen just mentioned must be reversed, and the more I think about it, the more reasonable it becomes." ”
Wu Meiniang's eyes inadvertently flashed a touch of shyness, but it was also a flash, and then she said with a serious face: "Don't think about it, it doesn't mean anything." ”
Han Yi smiled: "Don't worry, I don't think much about it, feelings are not beneficial except for killing the two of us." ”
What are you kidding, playing with Wu Meiniang, it is really not far from death, give Han Yi ten guts, he doesn't dare to play this kind of game. Because he knows that a woman like Wu Meiniang, who has only produced one woman for thousands of years, will always be just her accessory, and it is impossible to become the most important thing in her heart.
For Han Yi, this is just a friendly match, not even a preseason.
And in politics, Han Yi actually has no lower limit, because it is the dirtiest.
Wu Meiniang said: "It's best if you understand!" ”
After saying this, Wu Meiniang felt very relaxed, moved her body slightly, made herself more comfortable, and said softly: "But... Thank you for being with me at this moment. ”
Han Yi smiled: "Don't say thank you for this, I'm actually a very picky person." As he spoke, his big hand suddenly climbed up the "mountain" that he couldn't grasp at all, and could still be lifted high, and kneaded it gently.
Wu Meiniang's phoenix eyes widened, her eyes squinted, and she snorted twice, but in the end she didn't stop Han Yi's movements, but laughed self-deprecatingly: "I really didn't expect that at this moment, the person who was with me turned out to be the person I hated the most in my life." ”
It is indeed a bit poignant to say this.
Han Yi smiled: "I also think it's incredible, but people are such complex animals, and some things can't be explained." ”
Wu Meiniang nodded slightly, suddenly arched into Han Yi's arms, pillowed the head of the mantis between her neck, and gently hugged Han Yi with her jade arms, a pair of bewitching phoenix eyes, half-open and half-closed.
Han Yi saw that she was very tired, and reminded: "Queen, it's not too early, you should go back!" ”
"Someone will remind me, I want to rest a little longer." Wu Meiniang's eyes closed lightly and said lightly.
Looks like you're pretty well prepared. Han Yi couldn't help but wonder, in this regard, he was not very worried, because Wu Meiniang would definitely be fully prepared, if she died on this, if she really couldn't say wrong, she couldn't help muttering: "I can't imagine that my arms are so comfortable, if I go bankrupt one day, I don't know if I can use this to make a deal, if I can, at least I won't starve to death." ”
Wu Meiniang didn't open her eyes, and muttered: "If you fall to such a situation, I will let you go to the South China Sea to be a landlord and never come back." ”
Han Yi laughed when she heard this, but she was skeptical of it in her heart, because she thought that Wu Meiniang was not so merciful.
Seeing that Wu Meiniang's skillful face showed a serene look, she stopped talking and closed her eyes.
After a while, there were suddenly three knocks on the door outside.
Han Yi and Wu Meiniang opened their eyes at the same time.
Wu Meiniang immediately sat up and put on her clothes neatly.
Han Yi was not in a hurry to leave, lying on the bed and quietly admiring the beauty dressing.
After a while, Wu Meiniang was neatly dressed, glanced at Han Yi indifferently, and without saying a word, she walked outside, dressed in a palace costume, and couldn't hide her graceful and noble temperament, the previous Wu Meiniang came back.
She doesn't feel that what a lowly behavior she is doing this, a woman like her, everything is self-centered, this is what she desperately needs, it's that simple.
It seems that my treatment is still working well. Han Yi couldn't help but recall that in his previous life, he often left quietly when the woman was still asleep, but now tonight is completely reversed, and he feels quite funny, and he laughs.
However, whether it is for Wu Meiniang or Han Yi, it is just a small episode, which will not affect anything, nor can it represent anything.
It was Wu Meiniang, after this night, who completely came out of her grief, because the plan had been launched, and when facing the cunning Han Yi, she didn't dare to be careless, she had to go all out.
When the sun rises, they immediately get busy.
And the busy thing is actually the Khitan side.
The two sides are negotiating, but you must know that the imperial court has to give orders, there is no room for negotiation, and everyone knows that this is not a negotiation, but a preparation for war.
Han Yi transferred a group of students from the military academy to manage logistics and propaganda over there, this is a very rare opportunity for them, Han Yi is not afraid of war, he only looks at whether there are interests or not, as long as there are interests to be made, then go to war!
As everyone expected, the final negotiation failed, in fact, when Li Zhi decided to recognize Wan Quansheng's chieftaincy, it would be impossible to negotiate, because Wan Quansheng's rise has affected the core interests of other chiefs, and Li Quanzhong is already ready to send him.
Soon, Li Qianzhong raised an army against the Tang Dynasty in the name of the Khitan Seventh Division, proclaimed himself the supreme khan, and claimed to be 100,000 elite soldiers.
This is the fetters system.
In fact, those khans or chiefs, just to protect their power from being completely destroyed, only choose to submit, and have nothing to do with the virtue of subduing people, this is actually a kind of appeasement policy, if the Tang Dynasty still wants to station a large army there, or disarm their armed forces, it is absolutely impossible, they cannot agree, it is precisely because these khans and chieftains are still in power, this is to say that they can be opposed, as long as the time is ripe.
And Wan Quansheng provided a very good excuse for Li Quanzhong, because the sudden rise of Wan Quansheng made many chiefs feel very threatened, so they would unite around Li Quanzhong.
On the Tang side, it is to send 21 generals such as Qibi He Li, Xue Rengui, Gao Kan, Cheng Wuting, Liu Renliang and so on, but Liu Renliang's department will not go to the Khitan, they are just guarding the flank of Yingzhou, but they are afraid that the Yan Ya will suddenly defect and go straight to Yingzhou from the north, after all, the relationship between the Yan Ya and the Khitan is also very close.
The news soon spread to Chang'an.
Li Zhi also immediately held a meeting in the Liangyi Palace, in which Wu Meiniang and Li Hong also participated, you must know that in the past, this kind of military meeting would not allow Wu Meiniang to participate, but Wu Meiniang's support for Li Hong made Li Zhi feel very pleased, so he gave her more space, and hoped that Wu Meiniang could help the prince, because of the eldest grandson Wuji, he never believed in the auxiliary minister.
"Now that the war has started, Shang Shuling, has the matter of grain and grass been arranged?" Li Zhi asked.
Han Yi immediately said: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, Taiyuan has always been an important military town, there is enough support from Tuntian, coupled with the Taiyuan plan, more grain will pour into Taiyuan, and although the reserves in Yingzhou over there are not as good as Taiyuan, but behind it there are Laizhou, Qingzhou, and Lelangzhou, all of which have grain reserves, which are enough to support half a year without increasing the number of troops." ”
Li Ji said very confidently: "It doesn't take half a year, at most three months, and the war can end." ”
Li Hong was a little worried: "But the other party claims to be 100,000 elite soldiers, and we only dispatched 30,000 troops, plus Wan Quansheng's men, it is only 50,000." ”
Li Ji smiled slightly: "Your Highness, as far as the old minister knows, they can recruit 50,000 elites at most, and even if there is, we don't need to be afraid." ”
Li Hongdao: "But I heard that the Khitans are also very brave and good at fighting. ”
"This old minister doesn't deny it."
Li Ji nodded, and said: "But Your Highness, don't forget, the Khitan is just an alliance, not a unified regime, and that Li Quanzhong is far from having the eloquence of Jieli, but Rao is Jieli, before he competed with the Tang Dynasty, he also integrated all the forces on the grassland through a series of expeditions, so there was a powerful Turkic dynasty, and Li Quanzhong did not integrate the Khitan Eight Divisions through these means, they only came together because of a Wanquan Sheng who was not a strong enemy, Therefore, although they are superior to us in strength, their combat effectiveness is far inferior to ours.
Therefore, our strategy is to concentrate our forces and attack the forces of the Dahe clan where Li Qianzhong is located, and for the other tribes, it is to prevent them from rescuing the Dahe clan with a small number of troops, and the old minister believes that those tribes will not necessarily do their best to help the Dahe clan, if they see that we are only targeting the Dahe clan, then they will naturally respond passively, as long as the Dahe clan is defeated by our army, the victory will belong to us. ”
As the commander of the older generation, he still agrees with Jieli very much, although he is an enemy, but in other words, if Jieli is degraded like a straw bag, then what is there to be proud of in winning Jieli, the Weishui Alliance is not even more shameful, but you must know that eliminating Jieli is the proudest battle of the Tang Dynasty. Li Shimin was also very polite to Jieli, and did not say that he would be treated as a prisoner.
After hearing this, Li Zhi nodded with a smile and said, "Hearing Sikong say this, I should be a lot more relieved!" ”
Han Yi said suddenly: "But after this battle, you can't implement the fetters system over there, otherwise, they will rebel from time to time, who can stand this, the imperial court should implement the state and county system over there to prevent future troubles." ”
Li Zhi nodded and asked, "What does Shang Shuling suggest?" ”
Han Yi said: "The minister is very much in favor of Sikong's strategy, our purpose is only to destroy their alliance, not to exterminate them, and the people there will be my people in the Tang Dynasty in the future." Not only that, we must also pay attention to the propaganda of public opinion, and let the people of the Khitan know that it was Li Quanzhong who wanted to become the king of the Khitan, so he didn't care about the life and death of the people, rashly rebelled, and tried in vain to shake the tree, and did not measure his strength. Of course, we can't just put forward the state system at this time, which will make the chiefs desperately resist. ”
Li Hong nodded and said, "Shang Shuling's words are reasonable, this people are innocent." ”
Li Zhi glanced at Li Hong and said with a smile: "Then let's do it." ”
