In fact, the controversy between the ministers during this period of time poured a lot of cold water on Li Shimin's originally fiery heart. After careful consideration www.biquge.info Li Shimin himself felt that it was not the best time to wage war against the Turks. However, a considerable part of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces are now trying their best to promote the dispatch of troops, so Li Shimin is still hesitating.

When I saw Fang Xuanling, I originally thought that it would be the same as several other ministers. Who would have thought that this time Fang Xuanling said: "Your Majesty, this is a note sent by Luo Yan." Oh, and there are also some paperwork that the ministers have found from the household department. ”

Although Fang Xuanling is not a pioneer in opposing the dispatch of troops, as Li Shimin's right-hand man, his opinion affirms that Li Shimin attaches great importance to it. At this moment, seeing a pile of paper in his hand, he took it with a wry smile and asked, "What did Luo Yan say?" Thinking about this kind of thing, he couldn't wait for a long time. ”

Li Shimin's impression of Luo Yan is also to the extent that he will respond strongly if he disagrees. Li Shimin cleaned up the mess for Luo Yan several times, and he has a lot of say in Luo Yan.

Who knew that Fang Xuanling was just smiling, but he didn't speak, and his eyes were on the music in Li Shimin's hand.

Seeing Fang Xuanling's smile, Li Shimin knew that Luo Yan might have something wrong with him. So, I hurriedly opened the recital to see what the situation was.

is different from the kind of endless prose of other ministers, Luo Yan's recital has always been so straightforward that Li Shimin doesn't need to bother with his brain at all. That is, the recital of more than 200 words, Li Shimin glanced at it and read it. Putting down the song, Li Shimin sighed and laughed at himself: "It seems that I have done too much for him to finish up, and I treat him as a fool like Wei Chi Jingde." He sees this kind of problem better than I do. ”

After finishing speaking, Yang Yang Fang Xuanling brought the paperwork, and said: "I don't need to read it, you can tell me about the current situation of the treasury." ”

Li Shimin's meaning was already obvious, and Fang Xuanling didn't talk nonsense, saying: "The granaries of the states in Guanzhong are empty, and they will not be replenished at all until the autumn harvest. In addition, this year's drought in Shandong has provided a lot of money and grain, and the state treasury is also a little tight. There is also an offering to the Turks, speaking of which, if the army fights for three months, it is really like what Luo Yan said, unless the Turkic tent is sealed and Jieli is brought to Chang'an, otherwise we will be defeated. ”

Hearing such news, Li Shimin was a little silent. Maybe he was thinking about something, and after a long time, he sighed: "Alas, if I missed this time, I don't know if I can calm this Turk in one fell swoop in my lifetime." ”

The shame that the Weishui Alliance gave Li Shimin was too great. After returning to the palace, Li Shimin organized a group of soldiers to train archers and horses every day. Even he himself went up to demonstrate and serve as a teacher for these soldiers. Isn't it just to be able to accumulate strength and sweep away the Turks?

Now, if we ignore everything else and only look at the situation of the Turks, it is indeed the best opportunity to attack.

The two reasons given to him by Luo Yan made him a little unavoidable. If a foreign war cannot be completed in one battle, then it will be even more unstable internally. No matter how to weigh it, Li Shimin still has a number.

With this sigh, Li Shimin seemed to be several years older.

Fang Xuanling looked at him as if he was lost and depressed, and bowed: "Your Majesty, why should you be depressed. I think that my Tang Dynasty has many talents, and His Majesty has made great efforts, in a few years, it will be the time when the Turks have recovered to complete victory, and I can defeat them when I have free my hands. Why lose your mind because of this? ”

"What's more, now that the Turkic civil strife has arisen, we just need to divide it up, and the Turks want to return to their heyday, which is just a luxury."

Fang Xuanling is worthy of being good at strategy, and he instantly thought of a plan for dealing with it in the future.

Hearing such comfort, Li Shimin regained his spirits. After his face improved a lot, he said to Fang Xuanling: "I'll stay Luo Yan's recital first, and after you go back, take a good look at the documents of the household department." This matter will be completely settled tomorrow morning. ”

Hearing Li Shimin say this, Fang Xuanling retired with interest. Li Shimin was left alone, unconsciously muttering: "Bear the burden of humiliation, bear the burden of humiliation......"

The next morning.

As usual, after taking care of some necessary business, the courtiers began to argue again about whether or not to go on the expedition.

This time, Li Shimin didn't have the patience to continue listening, but someone started and stopped. Then he threw out Luo Yan's resonant first, and asked the attendant to read it again, and then called Fang Xuanling out regardless of the situation where many people wanted to refute it.

"Fang Zhongshu, you can tell me about the situation reported by the household department."

Fang Xuanling, who had been prepared for a long time, heard Li Shimin's words, so he read out the numbers he had prepared for the night one by one. Many generals who have the ability to be commanders in the army are naturally very good at money and food figures. How much food does the army eat in a month, and how much does the logistics spend, I compare it in my heart, and I really find that this battle cannot be fought.

"These figures were sent to the Ministry of Households at the beginning of the month, and there is nothing false about them. This year, many people in Guanzhong have abandoned their famine, and there is a severe drought in Shandong, so tax revenue can only look at the south of the Yangtze River. If you want to prepare for natural disasters next year, these taxes cannot be tampered with. After speaking, Fang Xuanling summed up such a sentence, which can be regarded as completely breaking the dreams of many people.

Nodding, Li Shimin glanced at the courtiers who were still in a daze, and said, "This matter is over, wait until the autumn harvest is over, and then see the situation." Obviously, Li Shimin still has some illusions, leave the time until after the autumn harvest, and then look at the situation.

Seeing that Li Shimin had already made a decision, and what Fang Xuanling said, many people had no way to refute it. Therefore, it had to be abandoned, and the conquest of the Turks came to an end.

Far away in Youzhou, the Governor's Mansion received the news within a few days of the court meeting. I knew that the news that I couldn't go on the expedition was depressing enough, but I didn't expect that more sad things were yet to come. The culprit who disappointed everyone was actually Sima of his own Governor's Mansion.

So Luo Yan began his difficult journey in Youzhou.

Ordinary soldiers actually had very few people who wanted to fight. After all, as they charge directly, they will die on the battlefield. Therefore, many people who are directly under Luo Yan's management actually have an okay attitude.

The first person to regard Luo Yan as an enemy was Wang Junkuo.

If you don't fight, how can you get your merits? Although he is also in power in Youzhou, he can do whatever he wants. But where can compare to those who are comfortable in Chang'an.

What's more, most of the governors basically only have the right to train soldiers on weekdays, and if they take the soldiers to do something, they have to get Li Xuandao's consent. Li Xuandao is not dealing with himself again, doesn't this make him uncomfortable. It's like those big generals in Beijing, one person has five people and six people, eating and drinking spicy.

Wang Junkuo, who was extremely unhappy in his heart, scolded Luo Yan when he saw him. If it weren't for Luo Yannai's sake, Li Shimin's favorite minister, Wang Junkuo would have done it a long time ago.

On this day, Wang Junkuo officially received the order of the imperial court, and strictly ordered all Zhichong Prefectures to step up military training and not attack without authorization. Wang Junkuo just asked people to read it once, and then he asked people to invite many generals under the Youzhou Governor's Mansion. However, two days later, after everyone came, Wang Junkuo could bring Luo Yan over, and then ask someone to read the contents of the newspaper without missing a word.

The content of the newspaper is basically based on the content of the court meeting that day, that is, even Luo Yan's recital has been copied a paragraph.

After the report was finished, Wang Junkuo looked at Luo Yan coldly again, and said with a smile: "As Luo Sima wishes, I will obey His Majesty's decree in one place. But we're not done with that. After the autumn harvest, Lao Tzu will go to the book again to ask for war. Damn, such a good opportunity was delayed by a scholar like you. ”

In the face of Wang Junkuo's cold words again, Luo Yan didn't say anything. Because at this time, everyone in the hall is staring at him, and if he says anything more, he is afraid that his life will be in danger. Luo Yan thought to himself that he didn't have such a powerful mouth cannon, and he could convince these martial artists who regarded their merits as their fathers.

And after Wang Junkuo pointed at Luo Yan's nose and scolded, the entire hall was noisy. Especially seeing that Luo Yan didn't say a word, just listening to Wang Junkuo's scolding like that, many generals became more and more arrogant. They all put the most vicious words they could think of on Luo Yan.

After scolding for a long time, these people were a little tired of scolding, and Wang Junkuo gave up.

The scene that happened in the Governor's Mansion was quickly spread by people with a heart. And as Wang Junkuo's attitude towards himself became more and more obvious, many people put their displeasure with Luo Yan on the table.

Needless to say, Wang Junkuo said that some of the military generals in the Governor's Mansion were very inferior. Sometimes when I see Luo Yan, I also raise my eyebrows and raise my eyes, and I don't take him seriously at all. Even a low-level officer couldn't even salute Luo Yan when he saw him, and directly treated him as air.

I don't have a place to reason.

is to sue Wang Junkuo, no one testifies to himself, and in the end, he just caused a commotion.

The generals of the Governor's Mansion are already like this. The attitude of the generals of the local Zhichong Prefecture is even more excessive, and the military information is deliberately concealed, or it is delayed. Sima, who can't get timely and effective information, is just a collator. Some simply reported what Luo Yan was responsible for to Wang Junkuo, ignoring Luo Yan at all.

For these things, Luo Yan kept them in mind one by one. Although he blocked the way for these people to get promoted and make a fortune, fundamentally speaking, Luo Yan did nothing wrong at all. Since that's right, the more Luo Yan's temper can endure, the more it proves how angry he is in his heart.

But now he is a lonely person, Wang Junkuo, Li Xuandao and various Zhichong Mansions, these people have offended themselves all over again. Bisheng himself is not as powerful as Lantian now. Then we can only wait for that opportunity to clean up these people one by one through the power of the court. (To be continued.) )
