Chapter 248: Waiting for an Opportunity
The telescope was tossed and broken by the two old goods, and when they saw that they were in trouble, they twisted their faces and the two old goods hooked their shoulders and talked about what they ate in the morning, and they couldn't see that Li Shimin, who was still fighting the sky and the earth a few seconds ago, was gorgeously used as the background board of the two shameless old things. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The emperor asked him to hurry up, but Wu Yuanqing could only do what he was told, and let the craftsmen put down the task of making glass mirrors first, and get out the telescopes that the emperor and the generals wanted.
Wu Yuanqing didn't dare to slack off, because he heard Cheng Chumo say that Cheng Yanjin had been talking about how good the telescope was for several days when he went home, and he also said that he would come to the Wu family in person to ask for it.
My mother, the plague god is going to come to the door, this is worth it, Wu Yuanqing thought of the tragic situation of the Wu family being disturbed by Cheng Biting Jin.
So, with the strength of all the craftsmen, they worked day and night, and five days later, Wu Yuanqing sent the first telescope that had been polished and built to the Great Demon King of Cheng Biting Jin.
Anything is the most difficult when you are the first to make it, and the more you go to the back, the more skilled you are, and the faster you can do it.
Wu Yuanqing led Li Tai and others from time to time to compare nonsense and teach, most of the time they were either touching their two wives, singing and telling stories, and then teaching their younger brothers and sisters cultural lessons.
The small days were very comfortable, two months passed in a blink of an eye, and thirteen pairs of telescopes were made, counting Cheng Yanjin, who had already gotten his hands, a total of fourteen pairs were completed.
Li Shimin asked for a trick, and the rest was given to the top-ranked generals.
And the generals who got the telescopes played with it for a few days, and then they passed the freshness period, and began to sigh that there was no artifact in their hands but it was useless, and it was completely blind to the good thing that could not be used on the battlefield.
God seemed to hear the broken thoughts of the generals, and on the third day of the solar eclipse, that is, on the 11th day of August, the newly canonized Zhenzhu Viga Khan Yinan sent his younger brother Tongtler to pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty.
This great joy overshadowed the eclipse after the eclipse, people talked about it and rumors, and rumors spread about what country and dynasty had traitors and what demon queens came to the limelight of the dictatorship of foreign relatives in the court, dispelling the haze that had shrouded the court for several days.
In this regard, Li Shimin was in a very good mood, and he was extremely pleasing to the eye when he looked at Tong Tler, and gave him a treasure knife and a treasure whip, and said: "Those who have major sins in the Qing Department will be beheaded, and those who have minor sins will be whipped." ”
This is a complete recognition of the legal rationality of the regime of the Rindrup Viga Khan Yinan.
Of course, it was not this incident that the generals were happy about, but after this incident, the emperor strengthened his determination to send troops to attack Jieli Khan.
The emperor not only made up his mind, but also put it into action, and Li Jing, the secretary of the military department, and Li Daozong, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, both received orders to reorganize the troops and horses and set off at any time.
And the household department also received an order to raise grain and grass, but this time this time this task was not handed over to Wu Yuanqing.
Got the news that Yi Nan sent people into the court to pay tribute, and the Tang Dynasty soldiers went through the horses, the Turkic Jieli Khan was greatly frightened, so he let go of the arrogance of the soldiers who had been in Chang'an City, and sent an envoy for the first time to ask Li Shimin to see Li Shimin with the courtesy of his subordinates, and invited Princess Shang to repair the son-in-law.
Subsequently, Zhang Gongjin, the governor of Daizhou, wrote to Li Shimin and listed six reasons for sending troops to the Turks: "Jieli indulges in violence, punishes loyalty, and rapes. Xue Yantuo and other tribes all rebelled, and the second also. Tuli, Tuo, and Desire Valley are all offended, and there is nothing to be ashamed of..... "Don't want if the six reasons are reasonable and well-founded."
This time, none of the ministers spoke out against it, but the emperor pressed the note and did not say no.
Although the emperor pressed the watch, the courtiers knew that war with the Turkic Jieli Khan was imminent.
This year, the wind and rain in Guanzhong are smooth, the five grains are abundant, and the harvest is good, sweeping away the gloomy scene of last year's locust plague.
Fighting a war is nothing more than national strength, at this time, population, food represents national strength, after a bumper harvest, there is no longer a shortage of food, and the opportunity is so good, there is no reason not to go to war with Jieli.
The emperor is waiting for a suitable opportunity, an excuse that people can't find fault, but he doesn't know when this opportunity will come.
In September, the Turks came with three thousand horsemen and nine men. At noon, Baye Gu, Servant Gu, Tongluo, Chief Xi and the commanders came to surrender.
At the same time, Kuaima from Songzhou brought an inconspicuous news that did not attract the attention of the Tang monarchs, and the twelve-year-old Songtsen Gampo ascended the throne of Zampu and became the 33rd Zampu of the Tubo Dynasty under the support of his uncle Ronkoer and the prime minister Shang Nang.
As soon as Li Shimin Junchen saw the news that the person who ascended to the throne of Zampu was just a twelve-year-old child, his heart suddenly became contemptuous, history has long proved that the lord and the young country will be in chaos, and history has long proved this.
It's a pity that Li Shimin doesn't know that history is not necessarily immutable, and there are always a few demons who will be different from ordinary people.
Twelve-year-old Songtsen Gampo is such a demon, and the later braided dynasty has an even more demonic one, ascended the throne at the age of eight, and was pro-government at the age of fourteen.
Wu Yuanqing knew that Songtsan Gampo was powerful, don't look at this guy Now the rebels in the family are in chaos, but they can quickly stabilize the situation and kill many old nobles to avenge their poisoned father.
It is estimated that after the sixth year of Zhenguan, Tubo will be reunified again, and the cadres and comrades of Zhenguan will move the capital in the seventh year of Zhenguan, and as the national strength grows stronger and stronger, the cadres and comrades will begin his plan to unify the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.
Then, after eight years of Zhenguan, he felt that he was very good, and the country had brought him to the great power of the world, and the cadres and comrades would ask Comrade Li Shimin, who now looked down on him.
It is estimated that Comrade Li Shimin will definitely feel that his face hurts and he will be beaten, and then he will definitely refuse sternly, and he will not agree to marry his good daughter to a comrade cadre in the countryside.
Then, the cadres and comrades will bring soldiers and horses from all over the country to Songzhou, force the marriage, and slap Li Shimin in the face again, and Li Shimin will find an unlucky girl to marry.
Wu Yuanqing was very happy to see Li Shimin deflated, but when he thought of Princess Wencheng and his relatives, he felt as disgusted as eating flies.
Forget it, Lao Tzu still finds an opportunity to beat the side drum to remind the emperor, countless people in the future generations of the province were disgusted to death by the peace relatives in the prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty.
However, the most important thing at present is to destroy the Jieli Khan, the Tang Dynasty monarchs and ministers are waiting, waiting, and the emperor has a heart, and they finally waited for the good news that they thought about day and night.
There is a saying in later generations that if you don't die, you won't die, and Jieli Khan definitely didn't know this sentence, so he didn't manage his subordinates.
In November, heavy snow fell on the grassland, it is estimated that too many cattle and sheep died, and the hunger could not stand it, and the generals Yarkin and Ashinadur under the command of Jieli Khan led the army to disturb the west of the river.
Not long ago, he just looked for Li Shimin, who was a shy minister of Jieli Khan, who did everything uselessly.
Zhang Shigui, the defender of Suzhou, and Zhang Bao, the defender of Ganzhou, united with each other to form a corner, fortified the wall, cleared the wilderness, and used the city to block the Turkic cavalry, and finally made the Turks return in vain.
Stealing chickens and rice did not make a mistake, and the things were not grabbed, but Li Shimin and others came up with an excuse to send troops to the Turks.
The wind and clouds are moving, and the six-way army is pointing at the sword.
