"I heard you right, Six Hearts."
"Is this true? I can't even hit ten shots. β
"The point is that he is still a civil official. I've never heard of such a great shooter in my court. β
"The point is, in front of His Majesty. That's too bold. β
"I don't know if Your Majesty will punish him for a great crime of disrespect."
"Your Majesty will only see Hunting Heart."
And Li Shimin, who was on the steps, looked at Luo Yan in front of him and actually spat at the mouth. Luo Yan watched Li Shimin's throat tremble, smiled secretly in his heart, but said with a little trepidation on his face: "Forgive the ministers for being disrespectful, a moment of luck, I won Your Majesty's clue, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive your sins." Although he said this, what he thought in his heart was that if he didn't want to save some face for you, he would directly hit the red heart with ten shots.
Indeed, with two skills, where would Luo Yan make any mistakes. The four arrows that didn't hit the red heart were actually all Luo Yan who could release the water. If someone put four arrows in one place, they would be surprised to find that all four arrows actually hit the same target.
swallowed and foamed again to moisten his throat, and Li Shimin reacted: "Okay, okay, you don't want to get scared in front of me." By the way, when did you have such powerful archery skills? There are many generals in the army who are good at shooting, but this is the first time I have seen you like you. Tell me honestly, what else are you hiding? β
Li Shimin's shock is difficult to add, where can he take care of the trouble of finding Luo Yan. His heart was eager to know what secrets the young man in front of him had that he didn't know.
"The six arts of the gentleman, Luo Yan's family was poor in the past, so naturally he couldn't learn anything. Now that he has been blessed by His Majesty and has a good life, he is naturally unwilling to become the bookbag that only knows how to study hard. At the beginning of the Weishui Bridge, His Majesty talked with Na Jieli in the next quarter, but he didn't know that the minister was only sad and angry in his heart. From then on, if I had leisure every day, I wasted my mind calculating the way of the bow and arrow. In addition, I also have some brute strength, three years of retreat, once pragmatic, I don't want to have such an achievement. β
Although there were some doubts about Luo Yan's statement that he could achieve this level by calculating in his heart alone, Li Shimin was still moved after hearing Luo Yan's reason for practicing bows and arrows hard. Sighing, Li Shimin said: "It's really hard for you." It is really a blessing for me Li Shimin to have such a loyal and energetic courtier as you in the court. β
Luo Yan said this in his heart, and he didn't even dare to claim it.
Seeing that Li Shimin's face gradually eased, Luo Yan asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, you won't regret the bet just now, right?" β
When Luo Yan asked this, it was like a child tempting an adult, which made Li Shimin laugh for a while: "Since you won the bet, then I won't regret it." It's just that I still need to think about it. When you will go out with the army, what role you will serve, these things need to be arranged. β
Looking at Luo Yan, Li Shimin said with some emotion: "Your ability is what really makes me hesitate." β
After speaking, he didn't explain more to Luo Yan, walked in front of Qianjun, and said loudly: "I am very happy to perform martial arts today." Your performance has lived up to the pressure I've been under for the past three years. I'm sure you've heard about it, and soon after, I, Datang, will go on an expedition against the Turks. On the battlefield, it is what you should do to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, what I ask is, but if there is a big battle, you must wait, and you will win the big battle. Can you do it? β
"I will fight and I will overcome the enemy." I don't know how many years I have been shouting the slogan, but now it still sounds like I feel passionate and impassioned.
Even Luo Yan couldn't help but say: "If I take charge of this army and horses at that time, I will definitely capture that Jieli and present it to Your Majesty." β
Although the people around him felt that Luo Yan was a little bragging, Li Shimin, who turned around, said happily: "Yes, I want you to be so ambitious." β
The group returned to the Taiji Hall in Li Shimin's happy laughter, and began to face the music that could never be finished.
In the blink of an eye, it was October, and after more than a month of intense preparations and planning, the matter of going to the Turks was finally officially decided. At this day of the court meeting, when Li Shimin listened to the recital of the officials in the court, he said to His Royal Highness with a serious face: "The Turks were at peace with me before, and they were originally in-laws. However, Yin Zhu Liang Shidu is such a traitor, and he has repeatedly robbed the people on my border, which is really not taken by his in-laws. From today onwards, I, the Tang Dynasty, have declared war on the Turks. β
Hearing Li Shimin's words, the ministers' faces tightened. This moment has finally arrived.
Of course, his face was serious, but his heart was full of anticipation.
"Ordered the military department Shangshu to act as the head of the Dingxiang Road march, and Zhang Gongjin as the deputy to lead the Chinese army; The governor of the prefecture, the British Duke Xu Shiji, was the commander of the march of the Tongmo Road, and led the main force from the east route directly into the Turkic hinterland......" After a series of appointments, the Sixth Route Army was all led by battle-hardened generals, and all of them were given the right to act cheaply.
Li Shimin's handwriting is not insignificant, and many ministers who did not know the plan in advance were stunned for a while.
This kind of handwriting is not much worse than the situation in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China when several armies attacked the heroes around the Tang Dynasty.
However, this also reflects Li Shimin's determination to conquer the Turks from another aspect. After the decree was read out, Li Shimin said to several generals in the palace who received the decree: "This war has exhausted all the material resources of the Tang Dynasty. If it can't be decided in a war, once a confrontation is formed, the Tang Dynasty will repeat the mistakes of the former Sui Dynasty. Generals, Datang, please leave it to you. β
The words are not serious, headed by Li Jing, and bowed at the time: "Your Majesty will not be worried, and we will destroy all the Turks to show my Tang might." β
Nodding with satisfaction, just as Li Shimin was about to announce his retirement from the dynasty and let the ministers go back to prepare, he suddenly saw Li Jing take a step forward and asked Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, Weichen feels a great responsibility for this expedition. However, in recent years, he has been working hard in military affairs, and his energy is not enough, lest there be a temporary omission and the Northern Expedition will be ruined. Therefore, the minister also wanted to ask His Majesty for someone to assist the minister. β
Li Jing's words made others a little confused, after all, Li Shimin had already assigned Zhang Gongjin to him as his deputy. In this way, it is obvious that he looks down on Zhang Gongjin?
"Oh, who the hell is it? But your proud protΓ©gΓ© Su Dingfang? Isn't he a general in the army you lead? Anyway, I've already given you the right to act cheaply, so you don't need to ask for my opinion. β
Although Su Dingfang was brave, he also learned a lot of the art of war from Weichen. But compared to the person I wanted, it was still a lot worse. β
"Not Su Dingfang? Could it be Hou Junji? β
"It's not Lu Guogong either."
"Tell me, who is it? Manchu Dynasty civil and military, I really can't think of someone who can make you value so much? It's not that Li Shimin deliberately ignored Cheng Zhijie and Wei Chi Gong. The more the war is, the more attention must be paid to the stability of the rear, and Cheng Zhijie and the others have received such a heavy responsibility. During the expedition of the army, the territory of Datang was strictly guarded.
"The person Weichen wants is His Majesty's close minister, Luo Yan, a scholar from the middle school."
"What?" Not only Li Shimin, as long as it is in this court, there is no one who does not scream. made such a big detour, and this is the one I wanted.
At the beginning, Luo Yan's request to go with the army did attract the attention of the Manchu dynasty. However, at that time, everyone watched Luo Yan jump up and down with the mentality of watching a play. Everyone knows that the more Li Shimin attaches importance to such a major matter as the conquest of the Turks, the less he will forcibly interfere in military affairs. Even the main general who is now leading the army is the result of the joint participation of the generals of the Ministry of War and the Twelve Guards.
Who would have thought that in the end, Luo Yan really got his wish.
"Dai Guogong, did Luo Yan come to your house to beg you. I knew that you asked him to beg me, begging me, I would let him go, although my words didn't work. "After being surprised, people often think that there is a shady scene here. Cheng Zhijie, who has always done good things, stood up, regardless of Li Shimin's presence, and opened his mouth to ask.
Hearing Cheng Zhijie's words, Li Jing was made to smile a little bitterly. glanced at Li Shimin, and saw that he was also curious, Li Jing could only report truthfully: "You can remember what Luo Yan said about "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" a month ago. However, the strategies hidden in it, picked out one by one, also surprised me. β
"After thinking about it several times, I realized that the person who told this book must be proficient in mathematical calculations and tricks, and even more so, and he is not an ordinary person."
Who is Li Jing? The world's first soldier. I don't know how many young generals want to join his disciples to learn the art of war. But until now, he has only accepted one disciple of Su Dingfang. The selection of apprentices is extremely strict, which means that his vision is high. However, now he actually regards Luo Yan more heavily than Su Dingfang.
How can such news not shock everyone.
Although Weichen also knows the truth of talking on paper, Luo Yan does have a lot of strategies in his mind. In addition, he had also invited himself to follow before, Wei Chen thought that such a young man should indeed give him a chance, let us see his true ability. β
What Li Jing didn't say was that Luo Yan's own ability was one thing, but he thought that it was a more important purpose to make Li Shimin feel at ease.
After all, he has more than 100,000 elite soldiers in charge of the Tang Dynasty, and he is not Li Shimin's hardcore descendant, if he doesn't let himself be under the surveillance of Li Shimin's henchmen at all times, don't say that Li Shimin is worried, he is worried himself. A Zhang Gongjin, although he is the deputy head of the marching road, but if he really wants to attack with a large army, it is inevitable that there will be a time when the troops will be divided, so it is better to bring a few more.
In this way, since Li Shimin's confidant will not disrupt his military arrangements, he must be familiar with military affairs. After thinking about it, the only one who can come out is Luo Yan. (To be continued.) )
