Those countries that are poor and poor, and the overall strength is pitiful, and when faced with a strong neighbor, those in power naturally want to naturalize. After all, after naturalization, the tide has risen, and it seems that the status is low, but in fact it is much better than before, at least it will not continue to be troubled by the lack of materials.

In fact, if Li Chengqian hadn't come from the later generations and knew in advance a lot of things that would only happen in the future, he would not have let Dugu Yulin agree to the requests of the people of Linyi this time, let alone bring them back to Chang'an.

A backward Lin Yi did not have everything that Datang needed at that time, and after naturalization, it did not have any benefits except for becoming a burden to Datang.

In contrast to Linyi, countries with strong productive forces did not have any idea of naturalization, and Goguryeo was a clear example. Facing the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Tang Dynasty, Goguryeo was shouting with his neck stiffened:

Come on, Lao Tzu is not afraid, as long as any Tang Dynasty person steps across the border, Goguryeo will definitely raise 600,000 troops in the country and enter Chang'an within three months.

Li Er received the news in mid-April, looked at the handwriting on the information, and couldn't help asking, "Who delivered this information?" What makes it so different? ”

Larger than life? Nothing is different, is there? Li Jing looked at Li Er suspiciously, he had also seen that information, except that Goguryeo's tone was a little louder above, there was nothing strange about it, why did His Majesty the Emperor have such a surprised performance?

"What? Don't you see it? Li Erjiang shook the two notes in his hand, picked up one of the original and said, "This, it should be from a woman's handwriting, right?" ”

This is a very embarrassing question, and Li Jing and the others don't know how to answer. A group of old killers who wield knives and guns, as long as the intelligence doesn't go wrong, who will pay attention to such details.

Li Er talked for a long time, and seemed to feel too fastidious, so he put the note aside, but unlike before, this time he put it very carefully and did not hand it over to the attendant next to him to destroy.

"Your Majesty, Goguryeo is obviously prepared, and it will be a little difficult for Mao Gong to attack him if they are unprepared!" No longer entangled in the issue of notes, a group of veterans began to speak one after another, and the thing they were most worried about was the pioneer officer Li Ji.

"Don't worry, Mao Gong will have his own measure, and I'm worried that he might as well think about how to govern after taking Goguryeo." Li Er waved his hand very casually, and did not take Goguryeo's oath seriously.

It is true that Goguryeo has 600,000 standing troops, and its national strength is very strong, but it is an exaggeration to say that it can hit Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty.

I think that when the world was in turmoil in the last years of the Sui Dynasty, they only dared to secretly occupy some territory on the border. And now, the Tang Dynasty soldiers are strong and strong, with millions of armor, if they can hit Chang'an, it is really bragging.

"Your Majesty should not be neglected, the Goguryeo border army has been fighting with the Khitan and other departments all the year round, and its combat power is not much weaker than my sixteen guards, if it is careless...... "Whether it is ancient or modern, going out to fight requires a good fortune, and bad luck is never dared to say, so General Chai Shao, as a brother-in-law, reminded him immediately, and never said a word of superfluity.

Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty conquered Goguryeo three times, and although he returned victoriously in the end, it did not cause much harm to the country.

"Goguryeo ......" Li Er sighed: "Goguryeo's culture was inherited from the Central Plains, but now it has become a problem for the Tang Dynasty's henchmen, creating and making people!" ”

"Alas, the little Goguryeo is just that, why not make Your Majesty bored, just give Lao Cheng three months, and definitely detain Gaozang Wu to the front of the que." Cheng Lao saw that the atmosphere was a little wrong, and took the initiative to jump up, his morale could not be drummed up, Li Er's pro-Zheng, his emotions often affect many things, forge ahead and depressed, it is likely that the Eastern Expedition will have diametrically opposite results.

"Don't make a fuss, I just feel it." Li Er was disturbed by Lao Cheng's sudden voice, and after glaring at him fiercely, he said to everyone in the big tent in a deep voice: "Goguryeo follows the culture of the Central Plains, and instead of thinking about repaying the favor, the wolf has the ambition to encroach on the Central Plains. ”

"The ministers are guilty, and they have the grace of God!" The eldest grandson Wuji, along with the other generals who came out together, stood up one after another to plead guilty.

Although Goguryeo is so arrogant and has nothing to do with them, under the rule that the lord is worried about the humiliation of the ministers, and the lord humiliates the ministers to death, it is also the proper meaning of the question to confess to Lao Li, and there is nothing, and Li Er will not really punish them.

Sure enough, Li Er looked at a group of old subordinates who were sincerely frightened on the surface and squeezed their eyebrows in private, and sighed helplessly: "Get up, don't use this look to disgust me." ”

"Whoa!" The old goods gave each other a look that was indeed so, and the smile on their faces was very obscene.

"Be serious, don't make trouble!" Li Jing was more stable in the end, for fear that a group of people would make trouble out of control, and after a warning, he looked at Li Er and asked slowly: "Your Majesty, now that we have crossed the Yellow River, we will reach the border of Goguryeo in about a month or so, please show Your Majesty how to act." ”

The people in the big tent fell silent, and their concerned eyes swept around Li Er.

When he came out of Chang'an, he just said that he would conquer Goguryeo and take Liaodong back from Goguryeo, but there was no clear goal for how to take it.

Is it killing people when they see them? Or is it differentiated? During the Great Cause, Goguryeo captured a large number of Han Chinese, and even now, there are occasional people on the border who are still waiting to hear someone on the other side howling at Tianchang, expressing the feeling of having no home to return to.

Many of them have already taken wives and had children, or married as wives in Goguryeo, and the definition of their specific identities has been very vague, and how to screen and treat them is a big problem.

Li Er also knew that this matter was a bit tricky, so although he had plans to pacify Goguryeo, he never came up with an effective plan to govern the locality, and most of the decisions were often vague, making these old killers who came out with him scratch their heads.

"Keming, what do you think?" Li Er hesitated for a moment and threw the question to Du Ruhui.

For the sake of face, it is difficult for Li Er to make the decision to kill them all, after all, there are still many Han people over there, and the notoriety of slaughtering compatriots is something that Comrade Lao Li doesn't want to bear at all, so Lao Du naturally became the one who helped Li Er to fight the thunder.
