Chapter 253: Two flowers bloom, one on each branch
The four of them were discussing at the head of the meeting, and the voice of the guard suddenly came from outside the door. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Your Majesty! There was an official letter coming. ”
Li Shimin frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "Didn't you say that when Mr. Yu was discussing important matters, he was not allowed to disturb?" ”
"It's from the Gyeongju Governor's Office." The guards outside the door were struggling, and they were very embarrassed and embarrassed. In order to show his respect for the eighteen bachelors, Li Shimin specially ordered that when discussing important matters with the eighteen bachelors, he should not be disturbed at will. But Li Shimin also gave an order that if an official document came from Qin Feng in Qingzhou to remind him, he would pass the official document to him as soon as possible and let him know.
Now the two orders conflict, so that the guards are not to bother, or are they to bother?
In the end, because I was worried that the military situation from the north was coming, I bothered it. Li Shimin obviously also thought of his contradictory order, and no longer pursued this issue, thought about it and said, "Take it in first." ”
After receiving the official document from Qin Feng, Li Shimin first smiled apologetically at Gai Wenda, Chu Liang, and Yu Shinan, and opened the official document.
At the first glance, my brows couldn't help frowning: This is not a piece of music written by Qin Feng himself, just because it is written in Qin's calligraphy, but it can't write Qin Feng's majestic and heroic spirit, and it can be seen at a glance that it is written by someone. However, when he thought of the situation of the border army and Qin Feng's busyness, he didn't care about it, and he looked at it carefully. The whole concert was sprinkled with twists and turns, and the problems existing in the border army were counted over and over again. Then, he unabashedly pointed the finger at Li Shimin and his Emperor Laozi, without a little euphemism to point out the reason why the border army was not strong and had no fighting spirit. He continued to look at it, and when he saw that the final explanation of the hidden dangers that might arise in the future of the situation in front of him, Li Shimin's eyes suddenly showed a shock and emotion, and he involuntarily lost his voice: "How long has this Qin Feng been to Gyeongju, and he understands it so thoroughly, it's really not simple." The most rare thing is that he said that he has a way to solve and eradicate this contradiction. ”
He paused, looked up and said to Gai Wenda, Chu Liang, and Yu Shinan: "Three gentlemen, I have important matters to deal with here, and I will be here today." When we go back, the three gentlemen can think about this issue and think about it carefully, and we will continue to discuss it in the future. ”
Gai Wenda, Chu Liang, and Yu Shinan retired together.
Li Shimin walked out of the study and instructed his subordinates to invite Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Wei Zheng and others to the conference hall for discussion.
After a while, the core figures of Datang gathered in one place.
Li Shimin first showed the official documents of the Gyeongju Governor's Office to several people.
Hou Junji, who was very outstanding in military literacy, said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, General Qin's words are right and you have to guard against it." If on the battlefield, a certain army turns against each other, or does not work hard, it will be miserable. ”
There are many factors of victory or defeat on the battlefield, each general soldier, will have their own strength, combat effectiveness is generally clear, even a new soldier, in the war has its own value of existence, if a certain army releases, or careless, or sit back and watch friendly troops into danger and disregard, will eventually directly affect the final outcome of the war.
Li Shimin nodded silently, as an excellent commander, Li Shimin also understood the danger. Although he knew that the border army had various problems such as weak combat effectiveness, unavailability of military morale, dullness, and lack of sense of honor, he never realized the cause of the problems and the harm brought to Datang by aging. Now, after reading the official document of the Gyeongju Governor's Office, I suddenly understand that the reason why the border army is like this is actually caused by himself and the emperor.
Not long ago, he also received a message from Li Jing and Li Ji, but he didn't take it very seriously, he only thought that the border was in flames all year round, and the soldiers were war-weary. He didn't pay much attention to it, because he knew that with the level and military literacy of these two people, this little thing would not be difficult for them at all, but now he understood that even if the two of them subdued the hearts of the border army, they could not eradicate this drawback, because if they went down according to the current system, in the future, there would be countless such border troops, how to solve this big problem once and for all, was the problem that he Li Shimin wanted to think about, Qin Feng saw through the root cause of the problem, and the official document also said that he had a way to solve it. It's just that there is no mention of how to solve it.
Li Shimin pondered for a while and said: "Copy two copies of this official document and send them to Li Shangshu and General Li Jida." After the order, Li Shimin continued: "We can slowly change the problems in the system, and what we need to do urgently at present is how to restore the courage of the border army, restore the glory of the soldiers, and then participate in the battle of the Northern Expedition." Although Qin Feng said that he had a way to solve the problem, it was still two things to say whether it would succeed or not, and everyone worked together to think about how to make the border army a wolf and tiger division in the short term. ”
Everyone's IQ is a top-notch existence, and they also know that the war is coming, and whether the border army can form an army to fight is a key link, so they have a good understanding of Li Shimin's urgent thoughts. So, they all thought about it. Whenever I come across a sparkling idea, I will bring it up and discuss it.
……
At the same time, the Gyeongju Governor's Office!
Just like the Chang'an Palace, the lights are bright! It has been three days since the letter was sent, and in these three days, Xue Rengui and Fang Yiai have also tried their best, first letting the second battalion of the tiger army abuse the border army, and then directly using the regular items of the tiger army, to the great surprise, among the ten thousand people, only less than five hundred people were eliminated home, and the quality of these border troops is so strong that even Qin Feng is a little reluctant to give up.
After that, the second battalion of the Tiger Ben Army was divided into two, and under the witness of the border army, a bloody confrontation was staged. Although it attracted attention, it was of little use to the insensitivity of the border army. After a few days, the two of them can be said to have exhausted their methods, but the effect is little. Qin Feng also saw their efforts, so he didn't mean to blame them, only to blame this group of border troops for being too hard.
On that day, Qin Feng had already received news from Luo Tong, at this time, he was leading more than 13,000 "Han slaves" to the direction of Gyeongju, with the addition of more than 13,000 people, Qin Feng decided not to compromise with the border army anymore.
Early the next morning, when the rooster crowed, Qin Feng got up early due to the biological clock, and led Qiang Jianfan and other guards to the military camp to come straight to the martial arts field.
When Qin Feng arrived, Xue Rengui and Fang Yiai had already prepared.
Standing on the platform, Qin Feng said, "I want to take a look at this group of insensitive things." ”
Xue Rengui said without hesitation: "The last general will be ordered!" ”
He turned to the adjutant behind him and raised his big hand very majestically and said, "Beat the drum!" ”
The sound of war drums was deafening, shaking everyone's heartstrings, and the momentum was magnificent.
At this time, the Tang army had been in battle for a long time and was well-trained, although it was a border army, but it also did a very good job in these hard rules.
Qin Feng waved his hand and said loudly: "I am Qin Feng, the governor of Gyeongju, and your commander. ”
One by one, the soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army raised their weapons and cheered, and the shouts went straight to the sky, endlessly. As for the voice of the border army, Qin Feng didn't mind, and pointed at the border army and said, "Now, you are divided into two teams!" Those who have enmity with the Turks stand on the left, and those who do not stand on the right. ”
Soon, the border army was divided into two distinct teams, and the number on the left was as high as more than eighty percent, that is, in this 10,000 border army, more than 8,000 families were ruined by the Turks.
After everyone was assigned, Qin Feng walked off the platform, walked to the side with the largest number of people, pointed to a sturdy young man and asked, "You, answer me loudly." What hatred do you have with the Turks. ”
The young man's eyes turned red, and he said loudly: "Yu Dudu, my whole family of eight people, except for me who escaped by playing in the mountains, my parents and brother all died in the hands of Turkic dogs, my sister, my sister ......" The soldier choked up several times and couldn't speak, but how could the people present not know what he had to say!
"People can't be resurrected after death, please mourn!" Qin Feng patted him on the shoulder, walked to the second person again, and asked, "What about you!" ”
"Governor Yudu, I am a Shuofang person, and my family, young and old, died at the hands of the Turkic lackey Liang Shidu."
"Liang Shidu's head was cut off by my own hands, which can be regarded as revenge for you, you don't need to thank me, because this is what any Chinese citizen should do." Qin Feng patted him on the shoulder and walked to the third person again!
"Governor, my father ......"
"Governor, my whole family ......"
"My mother!"
"My sister!"
When the question and answer were answered, the audience was silent! The people who were asked by Qin Feng all cried bitterly, and the more than 8,000 people who had similar experiences, from others to themselves, their eyes were red, and their sad feelings were all on their faces.
The reason why Qin Feng provoked the Turks was because most of these border troops were born in the places where the Tang Dynasty and the Turks met, and these places have always been the places where the Turkic soldiers were involved, and they were harassed by the Turks all the year round, and the local people had a deep blood feud with the Turks. It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven, and they have become like this.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Qin Feng asked sharply, "What is the purpose of your joining the army?" ”
Someone in the crowd shouted: "Revenge! ”
"Revenge!"
"Revenge!"
After he shouted, they were bustling with each other, and they were filled with the same hatred and hatred.
Qin Feng yelled, "Do you want revenge? ”
"Yes!"
"Do you think you can get revenge for this state of getting by?" Qin Feng's voice was like a dagger inserted into everyone's hearts, which was unbearable.
"Do you do nothing, waste your time, lead a little money to eat and wait for death, are you worthy of your dead relatives?"
Suddenly, the audience fell silent, and no one responded. (To be continued.) )
