Chapter 158: Within three months, the Turks will be pacified!
Looking at the bewildered expressions of the ministers, Li Yuanji felt that this was quite good.
But yes is good, this is not what I want after all.
He took a deep breath, looked at Li Shimin, who was still in shock, and said, "Give me 80,000 troops, and within three months, I will pacify the Turks!" ”
Li Yuanji's words were thrown into the crowd like thunder on the ground, and the ministers panicked, their faces full of surprise and disbelief.
Li Shimin's face was full of solemnity, and his mind had been on revenge against the Turks, which Li Yuanji knew very well, and everyone in the world knew very well that even if he was eager for revenge, Li Shimin did not think that the Tang Dynasty would have the ability to fight back against the Turks now.
"Turkic infighting has just begun, and now is not the time!" Without hesitation, Li Shimin rejected Li Yuanji's proposal.
"War knows no time, we are not ready now, but the Turks on the opposite side are even more embarrassed, civil strife, snow disasters, as long as the army comes out, the Turks will be chaotic!" Since it was mentioned, it was naturally well prepared, and Li Yuanji never fought an unprepared battle.
"As soon as the army comes out, it is also possible that the Turks will abandon their previous suspicions and unite with the outside world." Li Shimin still shook his head unmoved, and said, "I'll talk about this matter later!" ”
Li Shimin rejected Li Yuanji's proposal, but it still caused a commotion among the ministers.
King Qi, who didn't care about the world, actually offered to lead his troops to the battle, which was a good thing in general terms, but everyone present was not sure whether this was a good thing or not.
The impact of gunpowder was instantly dispersed by Li Yuanji's proposal, and Li Shimin seemed to have lost interest and directly announced the dissolution of the dynasty, but secretly left several prime ministers.
Chongwen Pavilion, Li Shimin's favorite place to go, where you can not only read poetry and books, but also check the learning situation of several children, and here, Li Shimin will never get angry.
Li Shimin took several prime ministers directly into the study prepared for him in the Chongwen Pavilion, closed the door, one person held a brazier to keep warm, and the servants brought the tea from Li Yuanji, and one made a cup.
"Your Majesty is moved?" The atmosphere in the hall was a little dull, and Du Ruhui, who was discerning, seemed to see the problem and asked directly.
Li Shimin nodded tangledly, sighed and said: "The fourth child feels like he has been enduring it, a year or two is acceptable, as time goes by, I am afraid that he will no longer be patient, and the academy of sciences engaged in by the fourth child has also achieved initial results, Yuan Rang plow, the new iron-making and steel-making method, and now I still want to continue to engage in gunpowder, if I let him continue to do it, I really don't know what will happen." ”
Li Shimin wanted to take the Academy of Sciences into the hands of the imperial court several times, but it was not the most suitable time, but seeing that the achievements of the Academy of Sciences were more and more and bigger, Li Shimin had some worries, but in front of these things, he did not dare to act rashly, and now was not the best time to unload the mill and kill the donkey.
But if he doesn't do anything, Li Yuanji's fame will grow bigger and bigger, and when the time comes, he will not only make it more and more difficult to kill, but even surpass himself, which is what Li Shimin is most afraid of.
Li Yuanji's proposal really moved Li Shimin's heart, and he was already moved when he proposed it again, and the reason why he didn't agree was that there were more things to consider and consider.
"Now there are two ways to solve Your Majesty's confusion!" Fang Xuanling, who was also worried about this matter, had already thought of two strategies in his heart, although it was not for this matter, but the general method could still be general.
"Xuan Ling, talk about it!" Hearing that there were two methods, Li Shimin's heart suddenly brightened, and the heavy expression on his face became lighter.
"The source of these two methods is that Your Majesty promised the King of Qi to lead the troops to the expedition, one of them, Your Majesty can arrange for the general to follow, wait for the opportunity to kill the King of Qi on the way to the battle, and then pretend that the King of Qi dies in battle, Your Majesty can seal his heirs, and even crown him as the emperor, so that Your Majesty's confusion can naturally be solved, and the people of the world have no way to point out." Fang Xuanling said the first plan, as long as the planning is reasonable, this matter is seamless, except for the person who operates it, it is impossible for others to know about it.
No one asked, one was thinking, and the other was waiting for Fang Xuanling's second method.
Everyone is an old acquaintance, and everyone knows what habits they have, Fang Xuanling didn't stop for long, and continued: "Second, Your Majesty can make an agreement with the King of Qi in three chapters, and after defeating the Turks, seal the country on the spot!" ”
Du Ruhui's eyes lit up, and he praised again and again: "This is good!" This is good! ”
"Didn't the closure of the country give him a chance to develop? The grassland in the north is so big, once the fourth child has the strength, it is impossible to give up the rich land of the Central Plains, isn't this a tiger returning to the mountain? Li Shimin frowned, very puzzled by Du Ruhui's applause.
"The closure of the country did give him the opportunity to develop, but it was also a crisis, regardless of the crisis or opportunity, for Your Majesty, this is a good thing." Du Ruhui said with a smile, and even had the idea of kissing Fang Xuanling.
"Oh? How so? Perhaps accustomed to Du Ruhui's habit, Li Shimin also subconsciously wanted to hear his opinions.
"The imperial court in Hebei has not yet been fully recovered, even Wei Zheng personally went to Hebei to persuade him, and there are still many generals who do not agree with each other, the king of Qi is still there, they can't change their banners at all, in this case, why didn't Your Majesty integrate them into the army of 80,000? The King of Qi is only the commander, and the real leader of the troops is His Majesty's general, when the time comes, you can put these old troops of the King of Qi in front, let them fight first, after the war, the King of Qi sealed the country, the army withdrew, and the maximum number left for him was only 10,000 troops.
And the Turks are not good at stubble, will they be indifferent in the face of the king of Qi, who has only 10,000 troops? In this way, His Majesty can solve the confusion of King Qi, and second, he can recover Hebei, which is the second joy.
And the court only needs to send a large army to relieve the siege when the king of Qi is about to be unbearable, and if there are any disobedient ones, they can also be sent there to supplement the king of Qi, so as to ensure that the king of Qi can barely gain a foothold in the grassland, and can also solve internal problems for His Majesty, which is the four joys. Du Ruhui happily listed four good things, and these four things are all good things for Li Shimin.
The most important thing is to send the king of Qi out, so that he can always fight for survival in the grassland, in that kind of ghost place, no matter how great the king of Qi is, it is difficult to rebel, unless he can dominate the grassland and let the grassland surrender to him willingly, but that is obviously impossible.
Fang Xuanling also nodded with satisfaction, he just had such an idea, but he didn't think so much as Du Ruhui thought, he only thought of the first two, but he didn't think of the last two, so he hesitated, not knowing which one to use.
"The fourth child has a lot of schemes, if he really develops, what should he do?" After listening to Du Ruhui's explanation, Li Shimin basically preferred to let Li Yuanji out, but thinking that Li Yuanji was not a fuel-efficient lamp, he still had some doubts in his heart.
"The focus is on the control of the overall situation, when necessary, some necessary measures can be made, and the king of Qi is in the north to seal the country, which is also good for the imperial court, he can block the enemies in the north for the imperial court, and with the personality of the king of Qi, he will definitely not pee into a pot with the Turks." Fang Xuanling added.
Li Shimin nodded, and then looked at the others: "What about you?" ”
The minister thought that this strategy was very good, and he could even agree with the king of Qi on the amount of tribute to be paid every year. In addition, it is also necessary to speed up the progress of selecting beauties for King Qi, this batch of beauties will be His Majesty's last killer feature! Yu Wenshi and others also nodded their heads in praise and made suggestions.
Li Yuanji is like a mountain pressing on top of their heads, everyone knows that the rebellion of the eldest grandson Wuji is inseparable from Li Yuanji, everyone is afraid that one day, Li Yuanji will treat them in the same way, now that there is such a good opportunity, why should they stop it?
Everyone gathers firewood and the flame is high, you and I say a word, not only say the benefits of this matter, but also prepare a foreshadowing for the future, once Li Yuanji is out of control, you can use these beauties to redeem it.
Li Shimin's face finally leaked a smile, this answer made him very satisfied, and the mountain in his heart was finally removed.
"Ru Hui, go check how many people are there in the fourth child? Xuan Ling, the matter of the beauty pageant will be handed over to you, solve it as soon as possible! Li Shimin kept instructing with a smile, the only unpleasant thing was that the matter of the beauty pageant was originally in charge of the eldest grandson Wuji, and after the rebellion, these beauties could only be re-selected, but it should be too late.
"No!" The people who solved the important matters in their hearts also had more smiles on their faces, and they felt that they were full of energy.
After the meeting, they chose to work overtime voluntarily, make preparations as soon as possible, and then let Li Yuanji go out quickly, and this time, I am afraid that I will never come back.
……
Taipingfang, there is no one around, in a brand-new courtyard, two figures are standing there, pointing at the new house, constantly commenting, both of them have smiles on their faces, as if they are very satisfied with this courtyard.
"Your Majesty has agreed to your affairs, your people, disobedient people, will follow, and then they will seal the country on the spot, which should be a good thing for you, but it is full of traps, if you don't do it well, you may be wiped out!"
"Will you follow?" Li Yuanji smiled faintly, he didn't know how many people he had, anyway, he hadn't been in contact with Xuanwumen since then, but he was quite interested in the one in front of him.
"I don't know, but this time there shouldn't be anything to do with me, there are too many people who need to fight, and this time the reward will definitely be more generous than before, and the old man doesn't want to fight them for this."
Li Yuanji looked at the brand-new house, sighed deeply, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and said with a sunny smile: "I will come back!" But I hope that when I return, you can tell me your final choice. ”
The man's face was embarrassed, but he finally nodded, and when he came back, he was afraid that the wind and rain would change abruptly, and at that time, he couldn't help himself. 13110
