Gao Shilian naturally knew the meaning of Li Shimin's words. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Li Shimin is sick, but now he doesn't want more people to know, so Gao Shilian has to keep his mouth shut, if he can't do it, then he and his family will not just be as simple as sending Lingnan, they are likely to be killed all.

Gao Shilian left, Li Shimin was suddenly very tired, very tired, but he still ordered someone to call Li Jing.

Li Jing is the god of the Tang Dynasty, he has never lost a war, and now that Li Shimin has solved Gao Shilian, the next thing is Tianzhu, and Datang is likely to have a big battle with Tianzhu, so he wants to talk to Li Jing about the specific situation.

Soon, Li Jing came to the imperial study.

When Li Jing came to the imperial study, Li Shimin's complexion was very bad, seeing this, Li Jing hurriedly said: "Holy Lord, you should rest more." ”

Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "Pharmacist, you should know how my illness came about, right?" ”

Li Jing is a pharmacist, Li Shimin sometimes calls him that, Li Jing listened, and said: "Back to the saint, the minister has heard a little." ”

Li Shimin nodded: "The people of Tianzhu are not kind, they actually hurt me, this revenge is not avenged, I am unwilling, I want to send troops to crusade against Tianzhu, what do you think?" ”

Li Jing has not fought for many years, and he is actually very yearning in his heart, but he also knows that in the battle with Tianzhu, Li Shimin is unlikely to let him go, but he still has to say what he should say.

After pondering for a moment, he said: "If the Holy Lord wants to fight Tianzhu, then we will fight, my Tang Dynasty has been founding for so many years, and the military strength and economy have long been different from what they used to be. ”

Li Jing knows Li Shimin's situation too well, so he actually caters to Li Shimin a little, and fighting a war is similar to a habit for their generals, so as long as it is a war, it basically coincides.

Moreover, what Li Jing said is also good, a few years ago, Datang was indeed a little weak, but in recent years, Datang has developed rapidly, there is no shortage of people and money, and it is fully capable of fighting a tough battle.

Li Shimin nodded: "Okay, those who know my heart, Pharmacist Li is also, but Tianzhu is far away from my Tang Dynasty, and there is Tubo in the middle, and the soldiers are afraid that Tubo will not agree, what good plan does the pharmacist have?" ”

Although Li Shimin's health is poor, his brain is not confused, although the relationship between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo is good, but if the Tang Dynasty borrows too many soldiers, Tubo will also be afraid, for fear that the Tang Dynasty will also learn from the previous Qin Dynasty, and there will be some kind of cold lips and teeth.

So it is almost impossible to invade Tianzhu on a large scale, but Tianzhu is also a very powerful empire, although it is not as prosperous as the Tang Dynasty, but they are not very weak, if you just lead a few people to Tianzhu, it is almost impossible to win this battle.

Li Jing thought for a while and said, "Holy Lord, with the last general's understanding of Tubo, they may only allow us to bring three thousand soldiers and horses to borrow the road, and it is unlikely that there will be more." ”

Li Shimin nodded, three thousand soldiers and horses could not pose any threat to Tubo, so they would lend the way to the Tang Dynasty soldiers.

"What the pharmacist said is good, but if three thousand soldiers and horses want to destroy Tianzhu, it is unlikely, what good plan do you have?"

"There are two ways to do this."

"Speak."

Li Jing bowed his head, and then said: "First, my Tang Dynasty sent 3,000 cavalry to Tianzhu, but on the way, I can borrow troops from Tubo and my Tang vassal states, so as to form an army and destroy Tianzhu." ”

After Li Jing finished speaking, Li Shimin touched his chin and said: "The pharmacist's attention is good, but although Tubo and the vassal states surrender to my Tang Dynasty on the surface, they actually have different intentions, but they just see that my Tang Dynasty is strong and strong, and they dare not complain, borrowing troops from them, are they willing to borrow?" ”

The Sweet Potato Country does not belong to the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and it is not an easy thing to borrow troops from them to fight Tianzhu.

Li Jing was not in a hurry, and said: "Holy Lord, as long as there is a profit drive, why don't they borrow it." ”

"What do you mean?"

"Tianzhu has a long history, and has established many dynasties, although its wealth is not as good as my Tang Dynasty, but it is not weak, if we promise to make huge profits, we don't believe that those vassal countries are not red, so that our Tang Dynasty can destroy Tianzhu without having to shoot a large army for a long journey."

The god of the army is worthy of being the god of the army, in a few words, it is already close to Li Shimin's problem, Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction, and said: "Okay, the pharmacist's idea is good, if they can divide Tianzhu's property, then they will definitely borrow soldiers, you just said that there are two ways, this is only one of them, so what about the second?" ”

Li Jing said: "Second, there are many large and small princes in Tianzhu, which is a bit similar to my Huaxia Zhou Dynasty, they are now Magadha Kingdom Ring King ruling many small princes, although Tianzhu seems peaceful on the surface, but these small princes have a little conflict of interest, they will fight, we might as well use this to sow discord, so to destroy the Magadha Empire, it is much easier." ”

After Li Jing finished speaking, Li Shimin praised again and again, and said: "Okay, good, with the two plans of the pharmacist, the Tianzhu Kingdom will be destroyed, but my Datang is not suitable to send troops to the army at this time, and wait for the spring of next year, we will find a reason to send troops to Tianzhu, and during this time, we must strengthen military training." ”

Li Jing was ecstatic in his heart, and was about to respond, when Li Shimin suddenly said: "Pharmacist, you are the person who knows my Tang army best, who do you think is good to send to lead the troops to attack Tianzhu?" ”

Li Jing's heart was half cold, and he said after a long time: "The last general thinks that Wang Xuance and Jiang Shiren are very suitable. ”

Hearing these two people, Li Shimin's brows condensed slightly, and he said, "Why have I never heard of these two people?" ”

Li Jing said: "Neither of them is very famous, but since the seventeenth year of Zhenguan, they have sent envoys to Tianzhu on behalf of my Tang Dynasty, and they know the situation of Tianzhu best, and although this Wang Xuance is an envoy, he is also courageous and has a strong command ability of military divisions. ”

As soon as Li Jing said this, Li Shimin was more or less impressed, but Wang Xuance's envoy to Tianzhu was not as sensational as Master Xuanzang's, so he didn't remember it.

Now after listening to Li Jing's words, Li Shimin nodded: "Okay, since it is the person recommended by the pharmacist, it must not be wrong, I will send someone to inform them and let them step up their training." ”

Li Shimin's words obviously mean to show favor to Li Jing, people like Li Jing are too estranged and too close, Li Shimin is very good at taking care of everything.

After saying this, Li Shimin felt that he was more tired, so he didn't leave Li Jing, waved him back, Li Jing got out of the palace, the snow stopped at some point, and the inside and outside of Chang'an City were snow-white, as if entering a silver-white world.

Li Jing looked at the snow in Chang'an City, looked at the children running on the street, and suddenly let out a sigh, in this life, can he really not lead troops to fight again?

Saint, saint, the old minister is loyal to you, when did he think of betraying you?
