Chapter 050: The sword goes sideways and turns the tide
"Is that all? Just watching Jieli loot my Tang Northland? ”
It can be seen how unwilling Li Shimin is. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"You can't fight a full-scale war, but it's still okay to fight a local war." With the current economic situation of the Tang Dynasty, it can fight some battles appropriately, but it can't support the large-scale conquests launched by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. Li Shimin is not afraid of the Turks, but he also has to consider the livelihood of the people, and it will be troublesome if the people of the world compare him to Yang Guang, who brazenly launched a big war regardless of the lives of the people. Li Shimin is not yet the "Heavenly Khan" who dominates the world and is admired by the whole people, so he naturally has a lot of concerns about doing things.
"How?"
Li Shimin's eyes flashed with a sharp mang, Qin Feng's words were tantamount to persuading him to use troops against the Turks.
"Your Majesty, your Excellency has arrived." A sharp and piercing voice interrupted Qin Feng's words.
Li Shimin stood up and shouted: "Hurry up, please!" ”
"Uncle Li, I'll go first." Qin Feng said, and heard the chaotic footsteps again, but saw a large group of people hurrying over. Except for Cheng Yanjin and his father Qin Qiong, Li Jing, and Wei Chigong, the other Qin Feng didn't know each other, but they were all wearing court clothes, and judging from the court clothes, everyone was a member of the fourth rank or above.
Obviously, all of the members of the group summoned after the court meeting were Li Shimin's confidants and ministers, and it was obvious that they planned to hold a very important "small meeting."
The major affairs and core secrets of the country were not qualified for Qin Feng to attend, so he consciously chose to avoid them.
Li Shimin said: "There is no need to avoid it! ”
All kinds of suspicious eyes stayed on Qin Feng's body: they all said that Qin Feng was the emperor's celebrity, and it didn't seem to be groundless.
Qin Feng grimaced and agreed.
After the ministers sat down, Li Shimin looked at Qin Feng with a smile and said, "Just now I talked about the local war, you continue." ”
In the face of all kinds of eyes, Qin Feng said that the pressure was great, and when he first met the ceremony, Qin Qiong introduced him again, there are Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Wei Zheng, and the eldest grandson Wuji, and the generals are Li Jing, Li Ji, Hou Junji, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yanjin, and Wei Chigong.
One or two are bullish figures, so it is really strange that Qin Feng has no pressure to show ugliness in front of these historical celebrities.
Qin Feng suddenly thought and said: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the prince of the country, and sooner or later he will have to run this great empire independently. This kind of rare opportunity is not always available, and it is also an improvement for him to let the prince listen to the analysis of the adults. ”
"Your Majesty, Gongzi Qin is right." As the eldest grandson Wuji who strongly supported Li Chengqian, he was the first to support Qin Feng.
"Someone, invite His Royal Highness the Prince." Li Shimin did not allow anything to be discouraged, and the current Li Chengqian and Li Shimin are still very satisfied.
Taking advantage of this gap, Li Shimin brought out Qin Feng's previous analysis one by one, which made Wei Zheng, a representative of the main peace faction, very satisfied.
It's just that Qin Feng's "all-out war theory" annoyed Cheng Yanjin, Wei Chigong and others.
"Hey, hey, hey! Little madman, you can't be like this, you are the son of Brother Qin, how can you say such unambitious words. Others hid their dissatisfaction in their hearts, but Cheng Yanjin couldn't hide his words, and shouted directly.
Qin Feng also vaguely showed three black lines on his forehead, but ignored them.
"Zhijie, Qin Xian's nephew is not unambitious. What he said is the real dilemma that my Datang is currently facing, the war should not start lightly, nor is it over in a day or two, once the war is at a stalemate, how do you let the imperial court support hundreds of thousands of troops? The lessons of the past and the teachers of the future" Wei Zheng, who had a square face, stood up and supported Qin Feng.
The generals are wilted.
Wei Zheng made it clear to the vital point, and pointed directly at the death hole of the military generals, so that they could not move. Every time, they were eaten to death by Wei Zheng on this issue.
As the three famous ministers that Li Shimin attaches the most importance to, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and Wei Zheng, they all have their own merits.
Fang Zheng is used externally, and Wei Zheng is good at governing and used internally.
Wei Zheng was different from the military generals, he thought more about internal issues. Yang Guang's three expeditions to Goryeo, so that the world was in chaos, in order to avoid the recurrence of the old things, so Wei Zheng stuck the war to death. You can't tell why, don't try to convince him. However, it is obvious that Li Jing, Li Ji, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yanjin, Wei Chigong, Hou Junji and others did not have the eloquence and insights to persuade Wei Zheng.
"I've seen my father, my lords." Li Chengqian's arrival resolved the impasse in a timely manner.
Li Shimin motioned for Li Chengqian to sit down, and said helplessly: "The foundation of Datang's national strength is weak, and it is our fatal wound, which cannot be changed in a short time. ”
Wei Zheng said: "It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge!" The only way to do this is to lie down and taste the guts. ”
"How's that going to work?" Cheng Biting Jin was so anxious that he jumped to his feet, how many decades can he have in his life, and he may die in ten years. Ten years is definitely not a waste of time for generals.
Qin Feng said loudly: "It's really not good. ”
Facing everyone's eyes, Qin Feng said: "The Turks are already imminent to go south, and they can't avoid it if they want to, and it's not up to us to fight or not." Uncle Wei, isn't that the truth? ”
Wei Zheng nodded and said, "That's true." ”
"Then there are only three paths before us: either cower, surrender, or fight. We can choose to cower, or even move the capital, but what will the people of the world think of this court when we retreat? How can there be a home for the weak, incompetent, cowardly and timid people of the court? How could such a court be able to stop the ambitions of Goryeo, Tubo, Tuyuhun, and Nanzhao to expand? Now the enemy of the Tang Dynasty has only one Turk, once it retreats, the Tang Dynasty will definitely face an ambush on all sides in the future. Jieli is hateful, but we can't deny his ability, and he also has a group of talents from the previous dynasty under him, once he follows the advice of these traitors, vigorously integrates the interior, and creates an iron bucket-like Turk, it will be even more difficult for the Tang Dynasty to win. ”
Qin Feng's face was straight, and he shouted: "Don't talk about surrendering, what qualifications does a barbarian have to make me **** surrender!" I don't make trouble in Datang, but I'm not afraid of things, the Turks really deceive me too much. Bullying my Tang Dynasty is like breaking my parents, and if you want to fight, then you will fight. ”
Qin Feng's words were loud and moving.
Most of the people made his blood boil, and most of them stood up in unison and bowed: "If Jieli wants to fight, then fight.!" ”
These people include Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Changsun Wuji, Hou Junji, Li Jing, Li Ji, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yanjin and a group of heavyweights.
Their shouts shook the entire Imperial Study.
Even Wei Zheng, who was against the war, showed a hint of approval in his eyes: Qin Feng crossed the ecstasy array he had laid down, directly skipped the national conditions of the Tang Dynasty, and went straight to the core of the problem, clearly telling everyone that the initiative of the war is not in the hands of the Tang Dynasty, and you have to fight if you don't fight, unless you want to surrender.
Li Shimin laughed out loud "haha": "Yunxiao is reasonable! Wei Qingjia, what else do you have to say? ”
Wei Zheng was stunned, opened his mouth, and said helplessly: "The minister has nothing to say!" ”
Li Shimin saw that Wei Zheng was deflated, and his mood was extremely happy, it seems that the emperor of the Tang Dynasty is indeed angry with this stubborn cow.
Li Shimin almost didn't sleep all night last night, and for today's battle, he mobilized the eighteen bachelors of the Literature Museum to discuss all night, wanting to move back to yesterday's disadvantage. Before the court meeting began, he had all kinds of situations in his mind, and he never thought that the real turning point would be in Luo Shixin, and he alone persuaded Li Jiancheng to do what a group of them did not do.
As soon as Qin Feng said this, the clever ministers suddenly came to their senses, and they all secretly scolded Wei Zheng for being shameless and cunning.
The lack of national strength of the Tang Dynasty is the most powerful weapon of the Wei Zheng faction, and it is also insurmountable to the false proposition, when he threw out this proposition, he was invincible, but everyone stupidly let him lead the nose.
Li Shimin has hardly slept well since receiving the information from the front, and he is worried about persuading the Lord and faction led by Wei Zheng, thinking that today's small meeting will end with Cheng Biting Jin's scolding, and he never thought that the real turning point would be on Qin Feng's body, and he did what a group of them did not do.
The sword goes off the rails, thinking about things that others can't think of, and knowing things that others don't know.
The power of one person can turn the tide!
This is Qin Feng, a talent and genius who is not very old, but unexpectedly left Wei Zheng speechless.
The heartbeat and loving thoughts almost jumped out of Li Shimin's chest.
The eldest grandson Wuji glanced at Li Shimin above, his heart was awe-inspiring, and there was also a trace of jealousy: This Qin Feng is really good, and he solved everyone's problems with just a few words.
